Immortal I Speedrun Supernatural Game

Chapter 317 The Flames of War Begin

"Because of our attention!"

"I'm still keeping an eye on him!"

From the discovery of the Xie Zhi and the Wine Taoist, to the fact that even the Bureau of Strange Events' database had no record of Ethan being a player, the anomaly began.

Wu Wang had been overlooking a certain issue—

Why do my sister and I keep remembering Ethan's strange behavior?

If the reason for making that phone call was that I had just met Ethan face-to-face.

So I can still remember what the other person said.

Logically speaking, after arriving at the side of the white-haired loli Xiaoxiao...

Affected by the opponent's rule-based items.

I and my second sister will probably gradually forget that the other is a player.

Wu Wang actually took advantage of his second sister's inattention to do this.

After leaving the jewelry store, he secretly used a knife to carve Ethan's name on the inside of his arm.

Furthermore, it was specifically depicted in English.

Rule-based items cannot eliminate one's intelligence.

Wu Wang believed that even if he completely forgot who Ethan was.

As soon as I feel a dull ache in the wound on my arm.

Upon seeing this name, one will definitely try every means to investigate the other party.

Especially after discovering that the name is in English, the investigation will focus on foreigners.

This is confidence in one's own brain!

However, the truth is—

I haven't forgotten anything to this day.

Even before entering the Calamity Square.

The second sister did not seem to have forgotten Ethan either.

Perhaps it's because of the Abyss God, or perhaps it's because of the [Fragments of the Past].

They, the brother and sister, are a special case!
If we compare those who care about Ethan to a basin of ink.

After he added the rule-based item, the ink quickly turned into clear water.

However, in this case...

Suddenly, two drops of ink remained suspended in the basin, completely unchanged.

Their existence is naturally easier to detect.

Right now, I and my second sister are like these two drops of ink.

Ethan spotted him immediately.

Wu Wang's gaze gradually sharpened.

They had only just exchanged a few words with Ethan.

He had already begun making plans.

Although the current situation is not very good, it can even be said that they are being completely suppressed by the other side.

But this isn't entirely a bad thing.

At least, this bounty has allowed Wu Wang to make new discoveries about Ethan's rule-based items.

He needs some time to think about and summarize the drawbacks of this prop.

Yes! There will definitely be some drawbacks!

Just like his own [Joker outfit].

Powerful abilities inevitably come with some side effects.

He didn't believe that the game would tolerate rule-based items being modified so brazenly in reality without any side effects.

If that's really the case.

The reality has changed drastically.

"Damn it! I almost fell for your pretty boy act!" the muscular man exclaimed, snapping back to reality.

This is the Plague of the Spirit Disasters!

No matter how arrogant the other party is, they can't hurt you.

He approached Wu Wang, cursing and swearing.

He said viciously, "Originally, I was only interested in the bounty."

"Now I'm more interested in killing you."

"Go home, wash your neck clean, and wait for me to come and slaughter you!"

After saying that, the muscular man vanished from the spot.

They have clearly withdrawn from the Spirit Disaster Plaza.

In reality, most people are also preparing to move closer to the capital.

After all, he just said—

If someone can provide information about Yan Shuangying's appearance, he can form a team to hunt him down.

The appearance information is now automatically provided on the bounty list.

He believed he could keep the bounty for himself.

No more teammates are needed.

There are quite a few people who hold this view.

At least in Wu Wang's view, people have begun to log off one after another.

As they left, they all gave their faces and the scrolling information on the bounty board a cold look.

Wu Wang licked his slightly chapped lips.

The murderous intent in his eyes was stronger than that of anyone else present.

The player IDs of those who logged off and disappeared on the spot.

He won't let any of them go.

I remember everything clearly.

"You'd better hope I don't run into you in person."

"Otherwise, it's hard to say who the prey will be."

Look at him like this.

Those high-level players who had been tricked into signing contracts before felt a chill run down their spines.

I recall the oppressive feeling my opponent exerted during the [Relics Battle].

That kind of confidence in commanding a large group of high-level players and even members of the Bureau of Extraordinary Events.

Where does self-confidence come from?

It is obviously powerful.

In the minds of these advanced players who had previously interacted with them.

[Yan Shuangying] could not possibly be killed by these petty scoundrels.

So now they're all rushing in.

They all greeted Wu Wang.

So as not to let the other party discover that I'm secretly observing the bounty list here, and mistakenly think that I have designs on their bounty.

"Good evening, Boss Yan."

"Oh? How good am I?"

"Forehead……"

However, the first person to greet him was speechless after Wu Wang said something that left him speechless.

After all, the other party is currently wanted by a bounty.

You can't really say how good he is.

They've remembered it now.

Besides being powerful, Yan Shuangying is also an abstract monster.

So the next person just waved and prepared to leave awkwardly.

Just then, Wu Wang's voice rang out from behind them.

"Everyone, especially those who are interested in my bounty."

"Welcome to the capital to assassinate me."

"At the same time, I believe that friends will come to Beijing to help me."

"You agree, right?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Wang patted the shoulder of the first person who had greeted him.

That radiant smile slowly revealed the shape of his mouth.

Anyone who has had contact with him can understand what it means.

Only two words—

【contract】!
When the transaction was being conducted.

Wu Wang had signed a contract that made these high-level players agree to provide assistance in the dungeon.

It's like everyone owes him a favor.

Although it is not currently in the copy, the terms and conditions still apply.

Ultimately, the final interpretation rests with Wu Wang.

He is now essentially making a promise—as long as he comes to the capital to help fight this hunt.

Then the debt of gratitude is considered paid off.

As I said before, facing other players head-on is much easier than running a dungeon.

If these advanced players were to choose whether or not they were invited into the instance by Wu Wang.

Or should we go to the capital now to help fight against other players?

They would choose the latter.

Based on Yan Shuangying's capabilities...

He needs help from others even in dungeons.

That would most likely be a nightmare-level dungeon.

Nobody wants to be dragged into a nightmare-level dungeon and sent to their death for no reason.

And so, the familiar face with Wu Wang's arm around his shoulder—

【Yunze】.

He forced a bitter smile and said, "Look at what you're saying. Your difficulties are our difficulties."

"Don't worry! I'll book the tickets right now!"

After saying that, he logged off immediately.

Many people left the Hall of Justice with strange looks in their eyes.

Watching them disappear.

Wu Wang wore a mysterious smile on his face.

"A nobody under the spotlight? You want to play war without bloodshed with me?"

"That's not up to you! I will personally ignite this war!"

"Burn until no one forgets your existence!"

At this moment, the Xie Zhi was unaware of what would soon happen.

After all, he was unaware of the existence of the transaction contract.

But deep down, he could also sense that Wu Wang had just made some kind of response.

And this response is likely to be far beyond what one imagines.

He was about to step forward and ask when...

It was discovered that Wu Wang had already logged off and left.

Before leaving, he sent me the address of a villa area via private message in the friends list.

As a Xie Zhi who has lived in the capital for several years...

With such a special address, you can immediately know where it is.

In addition to the address, two sentences were also included—

"Zu'an Grand Stage, if you have a mom, come!" "Hurry here to see others who have lost their mothers!"

A hint of helplessness flashed across the Xie Zhi's face.

It seems this Brother Yan is up to something strange again.

Log off and return to the Post Office.

The seat of the Wine Master was empty.

The other party has also entered the [Spirit Disaster Square].

They should be in a conference room right now.

They held heated discussions with the various high-ranking members of the [Strange Affairs Bureau] regarding the [public beta].

After all, announcing such a thing to the public is by no means an easy task.

The consequences need to be carefully considered at every stage of execution.

The slightest carelessness could easily cause social panic or even a collapse of order.

This is not like some Western countries that preach freedom but completely disregard the lives of their people.

This is China.

Everything should be done with the people as the priority.

The Bureau of Extraordinary Events will not stand idly by and watch chaos spread throughout China.

Therefore, they need to prepare many different plans.

After gritting his teeth, Xie Zhi took out paper and pen from his pocket, wrote down the reasons for his application, and placed them on the other party's desk.

The girl dressed in tequila turned and left.

I'm not qualified to attend meetings at that level.

But at least I have the right to help my friends through tough times!
Back then, Yan Shuangying was able to help him clear his name without hesitation.

Then I'd go to great lengths for him!

"Brother Yan, whatever your plans are, please don't cause any trouble in the capital!"

Filled with concern, the Xie Zhi hurried towards the villa area.

However, he was on his way.

Paranormal events have begun to occur in the villa area on the other side.

The moment Wu Wang and the white-haired loli Xiao Xiao returned.

They then discovered that Wu Xiaoyou was sitting with her legs crossed.

Stepping around in the air in high heels.

She demanded fiercely, adopting a queenly demeanor, "Speak! Who sent you!"

Xiao Xiao was still reeling from the shock of Yan Shuangying provoking all the bounty hunters in the Justice Hall.

She assumed the other person had asked her to go to the Lingzai Square because there was something wrong.

I never expected it to be just watching a show.

In the end, they discovered that the main character of the play was right beside them!
He had just agreed to let Yan Shuangying stay at the villa.

Soon after, he became a rising star on the bounty list.

Who the hell can withstand this!

Now that I've come back, I find that this woman named "Higanbana" is acting crazy.

Xiao Xiao was even starting to wonder if Wu Xiaoyou might also be some kind of wanted criminal.

Damn it! Anyone who can hang out with Yan Shuangying is definitely not normal!
"Huh? Where did you get all these ghosts in the room?" Wu Wang asked, frowning.

The second sister silently pointed outside the door.

These words sent a shiver down Xiaoxiao's spine.

Suddenly, I felt the air around me become a little chilly.

My home should be kept at a constant temperature 24 hours a day thanks to the temperature control equipment, right?

She stammered through trembling teeth, "Brother Yan... Brother Yan, don't scare me."

"I've lived here for years, how come I didn't know there was a ghost in the house?"

Wu was destroyed without a word.

He silently reached out and grabbed a bound ghost, placing it in Xiaoxiao's hand.

She immediately felt a chill in her hand.

But I didn't see anything.

This chill wasn't as biting as ice; rather, it felt eerily like the warmth in one's own hands was vanishing into thin air.

As a result, Xiaoxiao even felt herself gradually becoming more and more tired.

It's as if your energy and spirit are draining away along with the warmth in your hands.

Startled, she quickly shook off the invisible object in her hand.

Since the [God Mask] has been incorporated into the current [Clown Suit] by the big boss.

Therefore, Wu Wang can now directly see ghosts and monsters.

Do you remember the underworld from "Tales of the Peking Opera"?

"I suspect someone in the villa area opened a passage to the underworld."

"Let all those monsters and demons inside escape."

Wu Wang grabbed the ghost she had thrown to the ground and tossed it back to her second sister's feet.

Although he had just returned as well.

But they quickly analyzed the current situation.

The second sister has captured too many ghosts and spirits.

It far exceeds the number of wandering ghosts that one should have.

It almost filled the entire hall.

This is why the temperature dropped so quickly.

Say it without bragging.

If there were an ordinary person in this room right now.

Even if he does nothing but sit there.

Most of them can only last for about half an hour before falling into a coma due to loss of vital energy.

Such a large number of ghosts.

Clearly, it can only mean that some kind of underworld passage has been opened nearby.

"Ah... Win-win, these ghosts are all very strange."

"They were too weak, as if all their strength had been drained."

"They were so weak that they could no longer maintain consciousness and could only rely on their instincts to absorb the yang energy around them, which is the essence and spirit of the living."

“Before you returned, I interrogated more than a dozen little devils, and not one of them could speak.”

The second sister casually crushed the ghost beneath her high heels.

A faint, ethereal wail echoed in my ears.

A lonely ghost vanished into the world.

She wasn't exactly a great philanthropist either.

Wu Xiaoyou's gentleness is only shown to Wu Wang.

These ghosts pounced on the villa like wolves and tigers.

It's obvious they came with malicious intent.

She had no time to care whether these wandering ghosts were innocent or not.

Just then, Wu Wang suddenly looked up.

His expression turned somewhat strange.

Then he looked at Xiaoxiao and asked a strange question—

"If you live alone at home and hear footsteps coming from the second floor, what should you do?"

Without hesitation, Xiaoxiao said, "If it's a thief, then we'll go upstairs and deal with him!"

Wu Wang pointed to the spiral staircase not far away and said:
"No, I suggest you deal with that non-existent second floor of your house first."

"!???"

These words immediately sent chills down Xiao Xiao's spine.

Look in the direction Wu Wang is pointing.

They were shocked to discover something amiss with the spiral staircase.

Her family's villa is so luxurious, so naturally the design style is very sophisticated.

The overall architectural style is European.

Why do the handrails and steps of spiral staircases now look like those ancient Chinese houses that have existed for decades or even centuries?

It was so decayed that a strange odor wafted into my nostrils.

It looks like weathering caused by long-term neglect.

Looking up the stairs.

Surprisingly, there was a wooden door that Xiaoxiao found completely unfamiliar.

Its dark red color was so ominous that it made one feel uneasy all over.

This is a unique and out-of-place presence.

How come I only noticed this now!

I noticed that Xiaoxiao's expression gradually turned to surprise.

Wu Xiaoyou shrugged and said, "How come such a cute little girl has such poor eyesight?"

"I thought you and Shuangying would see it when you came out."

These words also made Wu Wang look at Wu Xiaoyou.

He grinned mysteriously and said, "It's not her fault."

"Red spider lily, we're special."

"Special in every sense of the word."

Having said that, Wu Wang strode toward the spiral staircase.

They paid no attention to the ominous aura it exuded.

Xiao Xiao quickly stopped him, saying, "Boss Yan! You don't want to go in, do you? Let's retreat first and find the mastermind behind this!"

However, Wu Wang rejected this proposal.

He shook his head and pointed to the door, saying:
"You can try going outside, but I guarantee you, you can't leave here now."

"The other party must have used some means to seal off this villa."

"It seems the value of my head has stirred up some players in the capital."

"The only way to break this deadlock is to defeat his methods from within."

In the speculation about the fall of Wu.

The bounty list has been posted for some time now.

The Xie Zhi was certainly not discovered when it was first displayed.

Either the player already knew they had a bounty on them and happened to be in the capital city when they found this place.

Or Ethan is secretly manipulating all of this.

But no matter what.

The enemy is now at the city gates.

Where else can we retreat to? Moscow is right behind us, tell me where to retreat to!

Besides, Wu Wang wasn't the type to run away when faced with difficulties.

He grinned, his smile bordering on maniacal.

Standing high above that dark red gate, he resembled a demon, Satan, emerging from the gates of hell.

His eyes were filled with a sinister and insane feeling.

Said word for word:

"The hunt has begun."

Let's see who the prey is!
