Immortal I Speedrun Supernatural Game

Chapter 321 The smile will not disappear, it will only move

Ta-ta-

I could hear footsteps approaching from behind.

Lord Wangyu turned his head with a smile.

Standing in this position, one can almost overlook the entire mansion.

He said with great enthusiasm, "Friend, what do you think of this place?"

"Here I am all-powerful! I am the king who rules over all demons!"

"Although the mortal world is bustling and prosperous, its cannibalistic society is even darker than the underworld."

"Why don't you stay here and help me manage this Palace of the Dead?"

He didn't seem surprised that Wu Wang was able to easily evade the evil spirits in the inner palace downstairs and catch up in such a short time.

From the perspective of the Lord of Wangyu Mansion.

Faced with such a large number of vengeful ghosts.

The other party only has two choices—

They either get torn apart and eaten, or they choose to ignore them.

The fact that they were able to come up here now clearly means they made the second choice.

The result of choosing the latter is that you will gradually become one of them!
After all, what makes something abnormal is precisely because it contradicts common sense.
When you don't think it's abnormal.

You should think about it.

Is it truly no longer abnormal, or... have you become part of the abnormality yourself?
Sure enough, there was nothing in this mansion that I couldn't control!

Even if this kid has the ability to kill vengeful ghosts, it's still the same.

This is the underworld!
Even ghosts have to obey my commands!
Let alone a living person!

Perhaps those lowly, wandering ghosts in the outer palace didn't notice.

But in his eyes, the yang energy within this guy and the dwarf was as dazzling as the sun in the darkest night.

A living person who can set foot in the underworld.

Lord Wangyu was quite interested in the two of them, which is why he invited them to the inner palace to try to assimilate them.

Unfortunately, only this kid has come up now.

Presumably, that little dwarf didn't choose to ignore the anomaly and was torn to pieces.

As for the other plain-looking female ghost with a hood...

I have absolutely no interest in this kind of stuff.

Just as Lord Wangyu was still preoccupied with how to get the other party to reveal the method to slay the vengeful ghost...

Wu Wang suddenly burst out laughing.

Not loud.

But it is extremely insulting.

The laughter, clearly tinged with sarcasm, infuriated Lord Wangyu.

What is he laughing at? What right does he have to laugh?

"I thought you were sent by Ethan to test me, and I even considered that you yourself were some kind of incarnation of Ethan."

"After all, you two are just too alike."

"Besides the similarity in attention and ability to ignore the abnormal, they especially share the attitude of treating the masses as clowns as if playing a game with humanity."

At this point, the sarcasm in Wu Wang's eyes became even more pronounced.

The broken sword of Xiaochuan slowly slid out of the sleeve and was tightly gripped.

He also pressed closer and closer to the Lord of Wangyu Palace.

Without pausing his sarcasm, he continued, "Now I'm sure."

“You are also a victim of Ethan’s abilities. You not only forgot his existence, but you were even sold out and still helped him count the money, constantly dealing with the people who came to this place for him.”

"There seem to be two clowns standing here right now."

"Pinch your nose, my friend."

"It looks like it's turned red."

Every word Wu Wang uttered only fueled the anger of the Lord of Wangyu.

Although he didn't understand who Ethan was when the kid mentioned him.

But the other person kept referring to himself as "Clown Clown".

This is clearly not a word of praise.

"How dare you! Who gave you the audacity to speak so arrogantly in my own residence!" A red glint flashed in the eyes of the Forgotten Words Manor Lord.

He waved the feather fan in his hand once from top to bottom in the direction of Wu Wang.

The next second, the surrounding yin energy seemed to form invisible, cold, and bone-chilling blades.

It roared towards Wu Wang, who was slowly closing in.

He didn't flinch or dodge at all.

He let the invisible blade formed by the yin energy slice across his neck.

In the eyes of the Lord of Wangyu, it was simply that the boy didn't have time to dodge.

I just said a lot of sarcastic things.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a paper tiger.

What a pathetic clown.

Lord Wangyu's tone also became sarcastic.

"Don't worry, if there's any hope of you becoming a ghost after you die, I'll bring your spirit into the manor for further training!"

"You'll never escape my grasp!"

Da da--

However, Wu Wang did not reply.

The only response to Lord Wangyu was the sound of his unwavering footsteps.

This caused the other person's smile to gradually freeze on their face.

A bead of cold sweat trickled down his forehead.

"No... isn't that right?"

"The Yin Qi blade really did sever his neck completely just now, didn't it?"

Lord Wangyu could even see the damaged marks on the ground behind Wu Wang.

It was obvious that some kind of attack had completely pierced through Wu Wang's body and penetrated to the ground.

But why is this kid acting like nothing happened?
He's a living person!

How can a living person still move normally after having their neck cut off?

"Of course there is. Haven't you heard of Xing Tian, ​​the ancient war god?"

"It's the one where you can use your bra as an eye mask."

"If all else fails, there's always Louis XVI on the highway, which can still get around normally, since you can't turn around on the road."

Wu Wang smiled and continued to approach him.

The speed remained neither fast nor slow.

But there was an inexplicable sense of oppression.

Lord Wangyu, whose thoughts had been seen through, was taken aback.

A rare sense of fear rose within me.

How does this kid know what I'm thinking?
"Keep laughing, don't stop. I want to see how long you can laugh." Wu Wang snapped his fingers lightly with his other hand, the one not holding the sword.

[Just kidding (Hidden Legend)]

[Special Effect 3 (Comedy Talent): Can lock onto all targets within a maximum range of ten square meters, adjusting their "laughing point" threshold so that when they look at the user, no matter what action they take, they will be forced to laugh exaggeratedly.]

Just as the Lord of Wangyu was about to say something to suppress her with his aura,

He opened his mouth but let out a strange laugh.

"Hahahaha! Why am I laughing!"

"Stop! Hahaha! What did you do, hahaha!"

He began to feel genuinely uneasy.

Because this kid is doing everything he can to control.

He even told himself to laugh, and then he started laughing out loud.

This is so wrong!
The unknown is the scariest thing.

The scene before us would be incredibly eerie to anyone who saw it.

The laughing ghost's face was filled with terror.

A calm person, yet their eyes are filled with madness.

Da da--

Wu Wang's footsteps sounded like a death knell from hell.

Lord Wangyu waved his feather fan once more.

This time, the intensity was clearly greater and more determined.

The yin energy that accompanies it is no longer an invisible, sharp blade.

Instead, a pressure as heavy as Mount Tai fell straight down.

It was as if it wanted to freeze everything in front of it in place.

He believed that under the suppression of this yin energy...

Even if this kid wasn't crushed into mincemeat on the spot, he certainly wouldn't be able to walk forward leisurely!

To be able to live so comfortably in this mansion.

It can only be myself!
Boom——

However, the moment the Yin energy descended like Mount Tai.

The Lord of Wangyu's face, which was laughing wildly, turned even paler.

He discovered that there was no one in front of him!
The other party vanished from the spot!
"Little sister, who are you targeting? Here comes the uppercut." Wu Wang's teasing voice came from beside my ear.

The Lord of Wangyu was so startled that he jumped.

I felt a gust of wind from a punch coming from below my chin.

He then rolled to the side in a disheveled state.

After creating some distance between himself and Wu Wang, he looked up and was shocked to find that it wasn't a fist gust of wind at all.

Instead, this guy raised his hand little by little, pointing his middle finger upwards.

Its irony was instantly amplified.

"Who exactly are you, Hahahaha?! Who are you?!"

"Hahaha, what brings you to my residence, hahaha!"

Lord Wangyu asked, laughing wildly while breaking out in a cold sweat.

He actually wanted to keep using Yin energy to attack Wu Wang.

But every time he tried to wave the fan, he would be interrupted by a sudden, forced laugh.

What the hell is this damn ability?!
It was clear that Lord Wangyu was getting quite exasperated.

Wu Wang knew the time was almost here. So, he brandished the Laughing River Broken Sword.

He analyzed logically and with evidence: "I know you're in a hurry, but don't rush, let me tell you a story."

"If a person is dedicated to making everyone ignore his abnormality, then when someone is able to resist this ignoring..."

What do you think his reaction should be?

Lord Wangyu could not understand the implied meaning in Wu Wang's words.

I just felt like this guy was mocking me.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Don't be so arrogant. I have plenty of ways to kill you here! Don't forget you're just a living person! This is the underworld!"

His reaction made Wu Wang nod repeatedly.

Satisfied, he replied, "Yes, yes, that's it. You wish you could devour my flesh, drink my blood, pull out my tendons, and grind me to dust."

The next second, his tone changed.

It became somewhat subtle and ironic.

“That’s strange, Ethan is in the same situation.”

"Even though they put a bounty on my head, they still managed to land me in this godforsaken place."

"But a bounty doesn't necessarily mean you'll be killed immediately. Here, you can survive simply by ignoring it."

"He was never quite there yet, not quite the kind of person who really wanted to kill me right then and there."

"Therefore, I changed my approach..."

At this point, Wu Wang vanished instantly.

They reappeared behind Lord Wangyu.

【Laughing River Broken Sword (Current Level - Epic, Repairable)】

[Special Effect 2 (Destined Person): Xiao Chuan locks onto a target. Within the next ten minutes, he gains three opportunities to teleport anywhere within two meters of the target. Each teleport consumes 20% of his maximum mental power. After three teleports, there is a 10-minute cooldown.]

Then he delivered a precise Thousand Year Kill to a certain part of the Lord of Forgetful Words' body.

Of course, it wasn't his fingers he used, but a broken sword.

Just as Wu Wang was rambling on, he suddenly felt a pain that seemed to originate from the depths of his soul.

Even the Lord of Wangyu Palace couldn't hold back any longer.

The ghost began to swell and twist, and its original image as a refined young nobleman vanished instantly.

Compared to the vengeful ghosts at the banquet in the inner palace, his ferocity was even greater.

It looked as if it had torn off its skin and transformed into a vengeful ghost.

Yes! Why did he dare to tell the other female ghosts that as long as they were under his protection, no vengeful ghost could absorb their yin energy in this mansion?

That's because he's the strongest vengeful ghost here!

His suppression of other vengeful spirits was enough to prevent them from taking food from his mouth!
Seeing the Lord of Wangyu's classic villainous transformation, who said, "I'm not acting anymore, anyone who sees me must die."

Wu Wang simply said, "I think that Ethan's rule-based abilities have a relatively constant effect on the change in attention."

"Just like the law of conservation of mass, attention might be quantifiable in his eyes."

"Attention won't disappear, it will only shift."

"He didn't actually know who I was; he just realized that someone was paying attention to him."

"He used his rule-based abilities to forcibly shift the world's attention from him to me."

"So, I started getting exposed on the bounty list and fell into this place where the more attention I received, the more dangerous it became."

"He wants to get rid of me by using [attention]."

The changes in Lord Wangyu's mansion continue.

He was already five meters tall.

It was ugly and bloated, like a mountain of flesh.

Wu Wang, however, seemed completely indifferent to this change.

He continued his analysis, saying, "As for why they didn't use a more convenient or direct way to kill me, but instead resorted to these roundabout methods..."

"Because I suspect that this rule-based capability's definition of 'attention' is not only constant, but even relative."

“I’m keeping an eye on Ethan, and he’ll notice.”

"Conversely, if he keeps paying attention to me, I will notice it."

"So, Ethan did this so that I wouldn't notice anything more unusual or suspicious."

"He dares not, and cannot, take the initiative to investigate me."

"The only way is to use rule-based abilities and [attention] to kill [those who are paying attention to him]."

"To Ethan, I'm just someone he follows. He probably doesn't even know my name is Yan Shuangying. The information on the list is all based on the number of followers. Ethan will probably deliberately avoid this information to avoid attracting any attention to me."

"In other words, he only realized that someone was watching him, but he didn't actually know my true identity."

"As for you..."

When he looked at Lord Wangyu again.

The other party has completely turned into a monster.

The feather fan in his hand transformed into a flesh and blood fan with bone ribs, flesh and skin as the fan surface, and hair replacing the feathers.

He roared at Wu Wang, "I want you dead!"

The flesh-and-blood bone fan in his hand suddenly pointed at Wu Wang.

The surrounding yin energy surged and rushed towards Wu Wang as if it were in a frenzy.

This time, it wasn't injected into his body like before.

On the contrary, the moment it touched Wu Wang's body, the Yin energy began to burn wildly.

The fuel was the yang energy within Wu Wang's body.

This refers to the so-called vitality and life force.

Lord Wangyu's expression grew increasingly ferocious.

He didn't believe that the yang energy of a mere living person could compare to the yin energy reserves of the entire underworld.

There are thousands of vengeful ghosts here.

It can even forcibly draw upon the yin energy of ordinary ghosts outside who are unaware of its existence.

They forcibly used their yin energy to burn against Wu's yang energy.

He didn't believe that this kid could burn away all the ghosts' yin energy.
"Hahaha!"

"Speak up! Why aren't you saying anything?"

"Is it because you're naturally quiet?"

Lord Wangyu felt a strange sense of exhilaration, as if he had finally gotten his revenge, and began to hurl insults and mock Wu Wang relentlessly.

woohoo-

The flames produced by the interaction of yin and yang energy are an eerie blue, with occasional hints of dark green swirling within.

It's as outrageous as the will-o'-the-wisps in folk tales.

The will-o'-the-wisps that shot into the sky illuminated the top floor of the entire mansion.

However, the more fiercely it burns...

Over time.

The more the weight was on the heart of the Lord of Wangyu, the more he felt he couldn't shake it off.

Because he never heard the other party scream or beg for mercy.

There wasn't even the slightest muffled groan.

Why? Doesn't he feel pain?

This is the agony of a burning soul!
Could it be that he was burned to death in an instant?
But why are the flames still burning even after he's dead?

"Oi!"

A disdainful shout came from within the flames.

Then the thing that had been burned by the will-o'-the-wisp and was completely unrecognizable, with only its outline vaguely discernible, began to move.

Da da--

Those unwavering and familiar steps completely shattered Lord Wangyu's psychological defenses.

He even pointed at the other person with his blood and flesh bone fan, trembling, and asked, "There...there's a ghost..."

It's hard to imagine what kind of mindset a ghost would have to utter such nonsense.

He saw a living person burning with the yin energy of the entire underworld mansion, yet still walking towards him without wavering.

That sense of absurdity burst forth from within.

Wu Wang grinned.

He paid no heed to the flames surging in his mouth.

Feeling the life force within his body burning wildly and being forcibly gathered back as fuel by the [Undying].

This process repeats endlessly.

He arrogantly said, "Remember this: if you're a monster and people see you transform and don't run away, then I suggest you run away quickly."

"You, twisted by Ethan into an obsession, have become a puppet clown who eliminates [attention]."

"Breaking your underworld seal is actually quite simple, and that is—"

"To make you forget my abnormality."

With the way of the people, also treat the body of the people!

When one's behavior is enough to make even the Lord of Wangyu feel something is amiss.

His focus on himself will rise to a critical point.

Then, we'll find a way to get Lord Wangyu to choose to ignore this anomaly.

When he makes decisions that a victim would normally make.

According to the law of conservation of attention.

The attention that disappears from Wu Wang will all be transferred to Lord Wangyu himself.

He'll get burned when he gets burned!

If this method of breaking the deadlock really succeeds.

That would prove that my prediction about the effects of Ethan's rule-based items was correct.

The drawback of that thing is its reciprocity!
This is a sweet poison.

Even the user will suffer if they ingest it.

After saying that, Wu Wang reached out and touched his nose, which was red.

Just kidding, Red Nose the Clown!

The more outrageous, bizarre, and incomprehensible one's behavior is in the eyes of others, the less noticeable one becomes in their eyes, and eventually, they may even forget one's existence.

Isn't this just ignoring the abnormality in disguise?

As for Lord Wangyu, Wu Wang repeatedly broke the rules and escaped his control. There were even bizarre situations where living people could not be killed in the mansion that he believed he had absolute control over.

Isn't this the biggest anomaly?
Thus, in his horror, Lord Wangyu suddenly discovered that the outline in the will-o'-the-wisp was becoming increasingly blurry, as if it was gradually disappearing from his sight.

In the end, only one voice remained, slowly echoing:
"Laugh! Why aren't you laughing?"

"Is it because I was born not to like laughing?"
