Immortal I Speedrun Supernatural Game

The law enforcement officers who came to investigate the boxing club took Bai Cha—or more accurately, Bai Cha's body—away for disposal.

The know-it-all said, "I still have traces of Alexander and those two death row inmates. Would you like to buy them?"

Wu Wang asked with great interest, "What's the price?"

The other party immediately replied, "Tell me what happened during the short period of time you were missing."

Upon hearing her words, Wu Wang smiled mysteriously, indicating that their whereabouts were not worth that price.

The two were bickering while chatting about other things.

But he wasn't idle either.

The all-knowing man was holding a compass-like object and spinning it.

Not long after, a crisp click was heard.

Instead of a compass pointing the way, what came into view was a broken needle.

Upon hearing this, the all-knowing person immediately frowned.

"What does this mean?" Wu Wang asked.

She replied uncertainly, "This... means that the target I was probing has no signs of life."

Sakura is dead!?
Since entering the instance, apart from seeing some abilities beyond the realm of ordinary people from that group of heretics, Wu Wang has never discovered any supernatural or powerful abilities.

Logically speaking, at this stage, no one should be able to kill Sakura head-on, right?

Unless, some force unknown to them annihilated them.

Thinking about this, Wan Shitong felt even more certain that what Wu Wang said was true.

Sakura must have discovered something they didn't know.

"What should we do? Should we wait for her to revive tomorrow? We can also verify whether players can revive using the dungeon's mechanics," the know-it-all suggested.

She was also very interested in the Eternal City's [Eternal Life Field] and [Rebirth Pool].

Upon hearing this, Wu Wang shook his head.

It would take too long; he didn't have time to wait until the next day to stake out the [Rebirth Pool]. Besides, if Yingluo was really killed by someone else, it was possible that the other party could use some special means to prevent her from being resurrected from the [Rebirth Pool].

Just like the White Tower and that group of heretics who were confident enough to take action.

They have some unknown reliance.

Thinking of this, Wu Wang turned back to the club's grounds.

Standing at the spot in the audience where the accident occurred, he looked up at the hole in the ceiling, squinting as if lost in thought.

The know-it-all joked, "I didn't expect you to be Sherlock Holmes! You must have thoroughly examined all the security cameras here, right? What have you found out?"

Wu Wang ignored him.

He simply asked, "Does Cherry Blossom have any skills or items that allow her to fly?"

His voice echoed in the empty stadium.

Know-It-All looked around and realized that there were still only the two of them there.

She asked, puzzled, "You're asking about me?"

Wu Wang stared at the ceiling and said, "Otherwise what? You're the best personal intelligence broker. This is an offline operation. I don't believe you didn't investigate the personnel of the Bureau of Extraordinary Affairs in Yunzhou City beforehand. You might even have analyzed who was most likely to be selected to go into the instance with us, right?"

After a moment of silence, the know-it-all sighed: "What price are you offering?"

To this, Wu Wang rolled his eyes and cursed, "Come on! You're going to see her too, aren't you? We're mutually benefiting now, okay? Talking about money hurts feelings!"

After a moment's thought, the other party said helplessly, "No, my intelligence shows that Yingluo has never demonstrated her flying ability in front of any player. She is a pure body-refining player."

"Body Refinement Player" is a commonly accepted term among players in the Spirit Disaster faction.

This usually refers to players like Sakura, who rarely rely on items or special abilities, but mainly focus on strengthening their basic stats, relying on sheer brute force to achieve miracles.

Of course, they also have another name—uncouth brutes.

The bigger the muscles, the smaller the brain.

This is what most players of the Necropolis game jokingly refer to them.

After receiving confirmation from Wan Shi Tong.

Wu Wang slowly closed his eyes, clenched his fist and swung it violently at the empty space, as if he were punching something unseen.

This scene also piqued the interest of Wan Shi Tong.

She also managed to find the surveillance footage.

Wu Wang's actions now are exactly the same as when Ying Luo beat up that resident named Xu Bansheng before.

What is this? Some kind of imitation skill?
After the beating, Wu Wang closed his eyes and, like Ying Luo, looked around.

Then they looked up and leaped high into the air towards the ceiling. Judging from the cracks in the bricks on the ground, the two exerted almost the same amount of force.

Watching Wu Wang's figure shoot away like a cannonball, Wan Shitong quickly stuck two stickers with wing tags on his shoes.

The next second, she actually floated into the air.

He flew away with Wu Wang.

The two drew a graceful arc in the air.

It eventually landed in the jungle outside a nearby wetland park.

"Holy crap! Aren't you afraid that other people will see this and label you a heretic? You're fucking insane..."

As soon as he landed, the know-it-all couldn't help but start grumbling.

However, when she saw Wu Wang standing still, there was another obvious deep footprint not far from his feet.

She shut up.

The fact that footprints could be embedded so deeply in the soil suggests that the person fell from a great height.

These are cherry blossom footprints!
"What...tool did you use?"

Know-It-All frowned, wanting to know what skill or item Wu Wang was using.

Her intelligence reports did not mention that the other party possessed such an ability.

But Wu Wang just shrugged and said, "It's just psychology, kinesiology, trigonometry and algebra. Oh, and a little bit of biomechanics. We have to consider Yingluo's way of exerting force and her body movements, plus the material of the ground and the degree of damage to calculate how much force she used, so there are errors."

In response, Wu Wang gestured to show the landing points of his and the other person's footprints, which were actually about two or three meters apart.

But to the all-knowing person, this statement was already outrageous enough.

You mean you didn't use anything related to the Necromancer game at all?

This computing power is beyond human capabilities, isn't it?
Wu Wang did not offer much explanation.

His mental strength was far beyond the comprehension of ordinary players of the Necromancer's Guild.

This kind of data, which seems to require a lot of calculation, is just a matter of pondering for him for a while.

But this method can only achieve this much.

There are no surveillance cameras here now, and the subsidence of the soil has been significantly altered by the opponent's leap.

There was no way to determine their next destination through profiling again.

He looked at the know-it-all and said, "Now it's your turn. We need to find out where she had the accident."

Facing Wu Wang's gaze.

The know-it-all sighed, knowing he couldn't avoid it. He could only take out a semi-spherical object, place it on the ground, and project a rich red light to scan the surroundings.

Finally, the light converged on a single point—a tree branch next to the cherry blossom footprints.

Know-it-all cautiously walked over, picked out a short hair from the pile, and laughed: "Good luck. The person in charge at the club must not want to take responsibility. They must have cleaned up the scene before the law enforcement arrived, or the opponent they faced simply couldn't pose a threat to Sakura. They couldn't find a single hair or blood."

In other words, when facing Xu Bansheng, who had been beaten to death, Yingluo was even more flustered than when she was boxing on stage.

She didn't even notice that her hair got caught on a tree branch after she landed.

Placing this strand of short hair on the hemispherical sphere immediately caused a transparent glass dome to pop out and close it, while also turning the prop itself into a complete sphere.

A moment later, the sphere began to roll on the ground.

The know-it-all said, "Follow it; it's rolling in the direction where the cherry blossoms are falling."

The two followed the sphere on the ground, but instead of leaving the wetland park, they walked deeper into the area.

After traversing various forest paths, we finally arrived at a tranquil place that resembled a temple.

The plaque at its entrance was covered in moss, but the five large characters were still clearly visible—

【Rebirth Pool (Wanlin)】

Wanlin is the name of this wetland park. Naturally, there can't be just one Rebirth Pool in Eternal City; each area's Rebirth Pool has its own unique style.

This place was clearly built with the forest in mind, so it looks like a temple.

But why did Yingluo, who had committed a crime, not run away but instead come to the nearest Rebirth Pond?
And he even died in the location of the Reincarnation Pool?
Confused and puzzled, the know-it-all picked up his items and put them into his backpack, then gestured to Wu Wang to go inside and take a look.

This action left Wu Wang feeling helpless.

To be fair, intelligence brokers are indeed cautious and never take any risks.

Therefore, Wu Wang strode forward.

Step into the Rebirth Pool, the deepest part of Wanlin Wetland Park.

The vast space contains no signs of modern technology, only the ancient atmosphere of a temple and ancient inscriptions. The only feature is a pool of water in the central area that is over thirty meters in diameter and bottomless.

Of course, this is not the most critical thing.

The most crucial point is that a short-haired woman is sitting by the pool, staring blankly at the calm water.

Her face was reflected in the water.

Wu Wang couldn't help but curse at Wan Shi Tong, "Damn it! Your props are malfunctioning! Ying Luo isn't dead!"

Without a doubt, this short-haired woman is the missing Sakura.

However, the once bold and glamorous Sister Ying now appears somewhat aggrieved and even pitiful.

Like a wounded wolf cub in the wild, it curled up alone and licked its wounds.

Hearing Wu Wang's words, Wan Shitong also curiously peeked over, and seeing Ying Luo's back, he immediately felt his hair stand on end.

She exclaimed in surprise, "What nonsense! My props are absolutely flawless!"

"Yan Shuangying, watch your step! This might not be Yingluo! It might be a ghost!"

Having said that, Know-It-All had already taken out his props and was ready to fight.

However, before Wu Wang could react...

Cherry blossoms by the pond spoke up instead.

Her voice, no longer as high-pitched as before, was now filled with weariness as she sighed and said:
"I am not a ghost, nor am I dead."

He then slowly turned around and looked up at Wu Wang.

He asked in a skeptical tone, "Yan Shuangying, can I trust you?"

Wu's death was somewhat inexplicable.

But he still approached Yingluo and looked at the pool of rebirth next to her, saying calmly, "I can't answer your question about trust. Just like no one can guarantee they'll come out alive when they enter a dungeon, I can only say—I'll do my best."

Yingluo and Wu Wang stared at each other with eyes as calm as still water.

After a moment, she said, word by word, "I know the secret of this city's immortality and resurrection."

Upon hearing this, the know-it-all also perked up his ears, eagerly anticipating the next conversation.

She could sense that this would be a major breakthrough in the dungeon's clues!
Unexpectedly, Yingluo pointed to her outside the temple and said, "But this concerns a secret of mine. I don't trust this unscrupulous merchant. I can only tell you what's next."

Wu Wang shrugged helplessly.

He smiled at the know-it-all and said, "Excuse me, ma'am, this is a private conversation. Could you please move a little further away?"

"Damn it! Do you think that's possible?! You wouldn't have found this place if it weren't for my tools! You think you can get something for nothing?" Know-it-all cursed. "Besides, she says she's Yingluo, so what? Would a mentally ill person stand up and say they're mentally ill? If you ask me, this guy is definitely something else disguised as Yingluo! Maybe she's the one who killed Yingluo! Check if the body was thrown into the pool!"

Both sides have a valid point.

But Wu Wang still smiled and said to Wan Shitong, "How about this, after I finish listening, I will tell you the relevant information about the copy, as payment for your help in finding it."

He looked at Yingluo and asked, "Is it alright? I promise I won't reveal your secrets, and I'll only talk about the information in the copy."

The three sides were locked in a stalemate, with no one willing to concede.

Time will only be wasted.

Yingluo finally nodded and said, "Okay."

Seeing the two of them working together so well, the know-it-all finally gave in.

Before leaving, he earnestly warned Wu Wang: "Be careful. Don't wait until I come back and find you dead too, and some guy who looks just like you comes out spouting nonsense."

She still firmly believed that her props wouldn't go wrong.

The reason why Yingluo's location could not be pinpointed at first was because her life force could not be detected.

That thing in the rebirth pool is definitely not human!

Wu Wang didn't answer, he just smiled.

I'm not sure if someone will impersonate him, but I'm certain he won't die.

After the surroundings quieted down again, Sakura took out a sound-blocking item from her backpack to cover the area and prevent people outside from eavesdropping. This was one of the standard items provided by the Bureau of Extraordinary Affairs.

This action led Wu Wang to conclude that the person in front of him was most likely Sakura herself.

Why does the All-Knowing Tool determine that the target has no vital signs?
Now let's see how Cherry Blossom explains it.

After setting up the props, Yingluo spoke:
"Before I state my conclusion, I have a story to tell you, which can also explain why you used props and other things to determine that I am already dead."

Wu Wang remained silent, signaling the other party to continue.

He wanted to hear just how outrageous the story was to make the items in the Spirit Disaster game call a deer a horse and mistake life for death.

Unexpectedly, the other party's next words were:
"Then let me take the liberty of introducing myself again."

"Comrade Yan Shuangying, my name is now Yingluo."

"But six years ago, my name was Xu Bansheng, and I was a man."

Wu Wang: “?”

The opening ceremony was struck by lightning, it was said.

It was definitely a bit of a bombshell.

He now understood why he hadn't trusted the know-it-all; how could he let an information broker know such things? (End of Chapter)
