Immortal I Speedrun Supernatural Game

Chapter 313 The Non-existent Player
"I believe that with your distinguished status, capable of casually spending millions, you wouldn't go back on your word just because of a few words, would you?"

The jewelry store owner's voice sounded somewhat sarcastic.

They seemed certain that the other party would not cancel the business.

Indeed, Ethan had no intention of backing out.

Because in his eyes, money really is just a string of numbers.

Just don't know why.

He suddenly felt an inexplicable urge to punch the guy in front of him.

"Phew... Calm down, calm down."

"I cannot resort to violence before leaving China."

"Violence is a devil; it will destroy those who use it."

I vaguely heard Ethan say a few words of self-consolation in his native English.

The jewelry store owner's smile remained unchanged.

After I calmed down...

Ethan then continued in Chinese, "In your Chinese parlance, a promise is a promise."

"Don't worry, I will definitely come to sign the contract tomorrow."

"It's just that I'll have to trouble you to wear something that belongs to a dead person. You won't mind, will you?"

The latter half of his sentence was clearly addressed to Dong Lei, who was standing beside him.

However, the woman showed no disgust whatsoever.

She just stared intently at Ethan and muttered, "Of course not, what you gave me is the best."

It seemed that she didn't care about anything at that moment.

They only care about Ethan's attitude and opinion.

"That's good. Let's go, baby. We still have plenty of time together tonight~"

Ethan put his arm around the other person's waist and walked out of the jewelry store.

After his figure had completely disappeared into the distance.

The jewelry store owner's expression gradually calmed down.

Pick up the jewelry on the counter and spin it around like a keychain.

He turned to the only female server in the store and asked, "What do you think?"

The waitress put down the dishcloth she was holding.

I walked up to the jewelry store owner and took off my mask.

It was Wu Xiaoyou's face after she put on makeup, resembling the face of the spider lily.

She asked with some curiosity, "How do you know they'll definitely come to this jewelry store?"

"I'll explain this to you later. First, tell me if you feel anything is wrong?" The jewelry store owner, or rather, Wu Wang, asked, squinting as he fiddled with the pendant in his hand.

I thought about it carefully for a moment.

The second sister said with a serious expression, "Yes!"

"I found that I couldn't bring myself to kill him."

As a qualified, or even excellent, bounty hunter.

Upon seeing the target enter your attack range.

Naturally, one would subconsciously think about how to carry out the assassination.

However, just as I was thinking this...

Wu Xiaoyou was surprised to find that she was completely unable to continue brainstorming.

They even inexplicably wanted to let Ethan go.

It was as if killing this person would make him regret it for the rest of his life.

Wu Wang nodded and said, "Yes, to be precise, it's not just murderous intent."

“Any attempt to cause him malice will be twisted and disappear.”

“I just thought about saying something even more vicious to provoke him, or doing something even more extreme, like flirting with his female companion in front of him.”

"But in the end, they couldn't make it."

These words surprised Wu Xiaoyou.

Is it wrong not even to hurt this man's female companion?

Is he really that powerful? Or are all players in the Necropolis capable of such incredible feats?

I saw her expression.

After thinking for a few seconds, Wu Wang said, "That woman's condition is not right; she's most likely being controlled."

"In other words, this woman is temporarily his property."

"So even if my extreme thoughts about women were used to insult Ethan, it was still a form of malice towards him."

"And it's only a preliminary speculation that it's malicious; we can't yet determine the specific triggering mechanism."

"This guy is a bit difficult to deal with..."

Even Zhuge Yue's "Peter Gets a Shock" wasn't this disgusting!
At least Zhuge Yue only sensed targets who harbored malice towards her.

Ethan was actually unable to harbor any ill will towards him?
Too abstract...

Moreover, Wu Wang noticed many strange things.

Since Ethan is involved in a large number of gray-market projects related to players.

They must also know that they have been blacklisted by the post office in China.

Under these circumstances, he not only openly came to China.

They even went so far as to create that commotion to draw the attention of the entertainment industry to him.

Why is this again?
It's important to know that the number of people in the entertainment industry is exceptionally large.

To expose oneself to so many people.

There must be a reason for it, right?
"Of course, no matter what, he definitely has connections with the Disaster Cult."

Wu Wang squinted and looked in the direction where Ethan had disappeared.

When he killed the fat and thin monks at the orphanage.

Stealing an interesting piece of information from the two people's memories—

This was before they contacted Zhuge Yue during the [Relics Battle].

They contacted an ordinary person first.

The organization instructed overseas members of the disaster cult to go to a designated location and deliver a letter to a mailbox in a certain room.

The owner of that mailbox was Ethan.

The person who issued the order to send the letter was a "disaster relief cadre".

His rank was much higher than that of the fat and thin monks.

It is said that there are only a handful of cadres in the entire [Disaster Cult].

Shortly after that.

Fat and Thin Monks received a response from Zhuge Yue.

They indicated they were willing to go to a hotel in mainland China to discuss the deal.

Next, it's about Wu Wang and Zhuge Yue entering the [Spirit Disaster Square] together.

In the eyes of Fat and Thin Monks at the time, Ethan was merely an intermediary connecting Zhuge Yue, and was not worth mentioning at all.

The letter was definitely given to Zhuge Yue herself.

After all, Ethan is just an ordinary person.

But now let's look at it from the perspective of Wu's demise.

He suddenly realized that perhaps the person who received that letter wasn't Zhuge Yue.

The letter was actually for Ethan!

Furthermore, those at the level of the fat and thin monks could not view the contents of the letter.

They had no idea that Ethan was a hidden player!
In other words, even within the [Disaster Cult], very few people know that this guy is a player.

Perhaps only so-called "cadres" knew his identity.

Ethan has been hiding so well abroad.

Now, it's even more inappropriate for them to attract so much attention immediately after coming to China!

ding ding ding-

Wu Wang heard a cell phone ringing under the cabinet.

They then dragged out the real jewelry store manager, whom he had knocked unconscious and hidden away.

Looking at the unknown caller ID displayed above.

He answered the call immediately.

"Hello, this is the 'I'm unhappy' hotline. Speak quickly if you have something to say, or shut up if you have something to say."

In response to Wu Wang's teasing.

The voice of a mythical beast came from the other end of the phone.

"Brother Yan, is it all sorted out?"

This is the communication method they agreed upon.

After all, it would be incredibly easy for the Bureau of Extraordinary Affairs to get the phone number of an ordinary jewelry store owner.

"I wouldn't say it's all settled, but at least we've confirmed some of the abnormalities in Ethan."

Upon hearing Wu Wang's reply...

Xie Zhi sighed and said, "Alright, just don't reveal your player identity in public, or you'll put us in a difficult position."

"The crisis management department of the Bureau of Extraordinary Events is discussing how and when to disclose the existence of the Spirit Disaster Game to the public. Until then, it is necessary to keep it confidential in order to avoid arousing social unrest."

"I really don't understand why you, as a powerful gamer, would pay so much attention to an ordinary person."

Just as Wu Wang was about to hang up the phone, his expression suddenly turned serious.

His eyes moving constantly indicates that he is thinking.

He asked, enunciating each word clearly into the phone, "Brother Xie, what are you saying?"

"You ask me why I'm paying attention to Ethan? Are you sure he's just an ordinary person?"

His words left the Xie Zhi somewhat bewildered.

He frowned, puzzled, on the other end of the phone: "Yeah, even if Ethan is just an ordinary person with some shady dealings, he shouldn't be worth your attention, right? Is there a problem? Or are you planning to launder money too?"

Wu Xiaoyou, who was standing next to her, was so surprised that she covered her mouth.

forgotten!
The person who clearly told them that Ethan and Zhuge Yue were connected was the Xie Zhi!

But he himself had already forgotten Ethan's strange behavior!
The Xie Zhi treated this guy like an ordinary person!
How long have they been apart?

How did they manage to do that?!

This time, Wu Wang finally got serious.

I just thought it was a bit tricky.

But now, he suddenly realized that he might be facing someone who wasn't a minor figure.

This is Ethan, the player who is hiding.

It could very well be a hidden boss!
