Immortal I Speedrun Supernatural Game

The players took another look at their surroundings.

This further confirms the possibility.

Fortress took a deep breath, enduring the headache, and once again activated [Code Vision] to look at the little novice monk.

[Abnormality Index 0%]

This is the code that appears on the other person.

In other words, the young novice monk in front of them had not undergone any unusual changes at the Compassion Temple; he was indeed a normal monk.

Meanwhile, the monks eating their vegetarian meals around them all exhibited some unusual behavior.

While immediately shutting down [Code Vision], Fortress also took the lead in taking action.

"No problem, little master, I'll listen to you."

He picked up the plate he was holding, placed it under the table, and quickly poured all the food into the swill bucket.

Seeing his actions, Ruoshui and the others no longer hesitated.

They all followed suit and disposed of these inedible and bizarre vegetarian meals.

Only Wu Xiaoyou remained, looking at the food on the table with slight hesitation.

She took a deep breath and smiled, "I won't trouble you, little master. I'm a little hungry anyway."

After saying that, Wu Xiaoyou picked up the food and carefully put it into her mouth little by little.

This scene sent chills down everyone's spine.

You have to understand that each bite contains countless insect eggs!

The crunching sound from Wu Xiaoyou's mouth sounded like insect eggs hatching.

"This... Sister Hua... isn't that necessary?"

They had their own guesses, thinking that Wu Xiaoyou might possess some kind of defensive skill or item, just like Wu Wang, which is why they dared to eat the food directly.

But since there are NPCs who can help, why waste your mental energy using skills and items?

In response, Wu Xiaoyou slowly spoke while swallowing her food:

"It's nothing, I was just conducting an experiment."

Back then, at sea outside Mingyang City, Wu Wang was trapped inside the Naraku monster named [Ilmui] during their battle.

She blasted him through with a single, irrational, pure-force "Old Days" energy cannon.

Those were the techniques that Wu Qing, the eldest sister, taught Wu Xiaoyou in the dungeon.

Of course, the "skill" doesn't refer to the energy cannon itself, since Wu Qing doesn't know how to use it either.

What her older sister taught her was an ultimate control over her physical strength.

This allows her to make every muscle function properly at the moment of exertion, and also allows her to concentrate all her strength on a single point.

Now, she is using this extreme power control to gather her [old] power at the throat, essentially creating a kind of protective barrier.

The food didn't actually end up in Wu Xiaoyou's stomach.

Instead, it was instantly annihilated by the pure destructive power the moment it came into contact with the [Old Days] at its throat.

The gentleman penguin explained to her that the essence of the "old days" is destruction.

Just as her brother is not afraid of being immortal, she is not afraid of being the "Old One".

Since this is something you were born with.

Then you should make it completely under your control.

Wu Xiaoyou's current actions are also a way for her to train her control over the power of the "Old Days".

"Um……"

As she was eating, she suddenly frowned.

Then his breathing began to quicken slightly.

A grain of rice slipped through the mesh and into her stomach.

This was not an accident, but something Wu Xiaoyou did intentionally.

Besides wanting to test the destructive effects of the "Old Days," she also wanted to test the extent of the "Compassionate Buddhist's" grace and how tolerant the rules of the dining hall would be towards her.

Of course, just in case, she also wrapped a layer of [Old Days] power inside her stomach.

If things go wrong, pounce on the grain of rice and destroy it immediately.

However, that grain of rice remained safely in his stomach.

It was quietly digested by stomach acid, without exhibiting the rapid reproduction phenomenon that Wu Wang had just described.

Could it be... that I won't have any adverse reactions if I eat it?
Thinking of this, Wu Xiaoyou tried to deliberately miss a single mushroom and not isolate or destroy it.

According to Wu Wang, the mushrooms become sticky once they reach the throat.

She felt a chill run down her spine as the mushroom slowly slid down her throat.

Finally, it falls into the stomach and is digested along with the rice grains.

It seems... everything is still alright?

She then became increasingly bold, even starting to swallow her food without using any force to isolate it, just like she was eating normally.

Even after finishing everything in front of me and letting out a burp, nothing else happened.

Everyone noticed that her abdomen wasn't even swollen like Wu Wang's had been.

I was startled.

Is this spider lily's skill even stronger than that of the widow?
At least when a widow appears abnormal, the problem is resolved quickly.

When it was her turn, she handled it quietly without the slightest abnormality.

These siblings are unfathomable!
Fortress even had the idea of ​​asking the class monitor a good question after leaving the dungeon.

Are all the colleagues in the Bureau of Extraordinary Affairs this awesome now? Are they hiding some secret techniques from other units? That's not fair!
Wu Wang deduced what his second sister was doing from her behavior.

After she finished eating, as he walked over to help her carry her plate, he asked in a low voice, "Are you alright?"

Wu Xiaoyou nodded without leaving a trace.

Wu Wang felt a sudden wave of frustration.

This is weird. Is this [Zhile] sexist?
How come His grace has such a powerful effect on my second sister?

If I don't get this kind of treatment when I enter dungeons in the future, I'm going to make a scene.

Everyone then placed their empty plates at the tableware recycling area.

Under their terrified gaze.

The fierce-looking head monk did not repeat the troublesome actions he had previously taken.

I just watched coldly as they put the plates away and started washing them.

call--

Everyone breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

This means that they can solve their meals in this way from now on, and maybe they can even go directly to the vegetable garden with the young monks to eat safe food without having to come to the dining hall.

It seems this is a safe house prepared for players in the instance.

Otherwise, this damned Compassion Temple is full of strange and bizarre rules. Even the place to sleep is not peaceful, which is too abnormal. There is no space to rest at all.

Who the hell could survive seven days in a place like this?!
After leaving the dining hall, seeing the young novice monk carrying a meal for five people, walking unsteadily, Jinxin kindly offered to let him carry it.

After all, a garbage can of this size is easy for an adult to handle.

But it was too strenuous for a novice monk who was not even ten years old; he would have to catch his breath after taking just a few steps forward.

The young novice shook his head and refused Jinxin's kind offer.

He said, “My master said, ‘Practice your mind in practical matters; carrying water and chopping wood are nothing but the wonderful way.’”

"Just like when I wash the dishes by hand, I not only wash the dishes, but also cleanse my mind of restlessness; it's the same now when I face difficulties alone, I not only solve the problems, but also increase my inner strength."

"So, I appreciate your kindness, but this chores are my own business."

The little novice monk, with his tiny body and palm-sized face, had a stubborn and earnest air about him.

It was exactly like a child pretending to be an adult. This left many players quite moved.

If they hadn't come, who knows when that little novice monk would have been completely devoured by those oddities at Cibei Temple.

If possible, I would probably try to save the little novice monk before leaving the instance.

Even if we can't bring him back to the real world, we should try to get him out of the Compassion Temple.

Even if returning to secular life and leaving the mountain is difficult, it's still much better than facing these abnormalities.

After all, we're not the kind of blacklisted players who wreak havoc everywhere; we all have basic moral standards.

Led by the young novice monk, the group then passed through many of the magnificent halls of the Compassion Temple.

I walked along a small path to the vegetable garden at the very edge of the temple.

Here you can even see the outer wall of Cibei Temple, and once you climb over it, you can return to the perfectly normal secular world.

But none of them tried to do so.

No one knows whether climbing over the temple's outer wall will directly result in the failure of the main quest to reside there for seven days.

So their eyes fell on the thatched hut next to the vegetable garden.

Compared to the exquisitely constructed Buddhist halls and sacred sites in temples, this little house appears so simple, even rudimentary.

The young novice scratched his head and said, "This is the house that Master built himself when he was practicing asceticism. Now that it's my turn to practice, I'm just borrowing it."

After saying that, he opened the wooden door of the hut and took out a long-handled spoon.

Put the food into a swill bucket, mash it up, and then sprinkle the fertilizer from the mixture onto the soil in the vegetable garden.

Looking at the lush green vegetables growing in the garden, the group couldn't help but exchange glances.

Whether the food here is good or not will determine whether they will be able to eat for the rest of their days.

The mug volunteered to step forward and pull out a silver needle.

While the young novice wasn't looking, he secretly poked a vegetable leaf.

He stared intently at the silver needle in his hand.

After about ten seconds of no change, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Everyone, the food is fine."

Passion Fruit walked over and looked at Silver Needle curiously, asking, "With something this convenient, why did you make Fortress Bro grit his teeth and use his skills all this time? You're not being fair."

She had long noticed that Bastion would unconsciously rub his temples when activating his skills.

It's obvious that the skill called "Coding Vision" is quite demanding.

To this, the mug rolled its eyes and said, "Come on, lady, I can't possibly use this thing to prick everything I can see, can I? Besides, it's a consumable item; every time you use it, whether it's successful or not, one stick will be used up. It's expensive."

After saying that, the silver needle in his hand turned into ashes and disappeared into the air.

It sounds like he has more than one consumable item, but the quantity is obviously not very large.

Even with its significant limitations, this is still a very valuable item.

After all, not everyone possesses Wu Wang's [Vision of Truth].

In the game "Spirit Disaster," items that can detect anomalies are extremely valuable.

After testing the vegetable garden and finding no problems, the group went over to ask the young novice if they could use his cooking utensils to pick some vegetables to make soup.

The young monk did not make things difficult for them; in fact, he kindly brought out a bag of rice for them to eat.

Wu Wang looked at the bag of rice but saw nothing unusual.

Suddenly, he asked, "Young monk, if I may be so bold as to ask, what position does your master hold in the temple?"

This young novice monk kept repeating what his master said.

He was curious about who the other person's master was.

Moreover, not only were the vegetables fine, but the rice and grains in his house were also perfectly normal.

That's a bit strange.

Why are there different types of rice even within the same temple?

In response, the other party put his hands together and said, "Amitabha, benefactor, this question is not offensive."

"My master's name is Huiming, and he is currently the head of the storehouse at Cibei Temple."

Upon hearing the title, everyone's expression froze.

In the previous diary of Abbot Kongbei, Abbot Duye, who had attained the status of "Buddha of All Beings," was once a storekeeper, which gave him the opportunity to go down the mountain and abuse his status as a high monk to act arrogantly and domineeringly.

It can be said that Du Ye's promotion to the position of head of the storehouse was the beginning of his crimes at the Cibei Temple.

What a coincidence? Your master is also a warehouse manager?
Suddenly, they understood why everything was normal on the novice monk's side.

Because the warehouse manager is responsible for purchasing daily necessities from outside.

The area of ​​a vegetable garden is always limited, and rice cannot be grown on a large scale within a temple.

Therefore, most of the rice used for cooking is purchased from the foot of the mountain.

"So, the rice that Monk Huiming gave to his disciple was normal, but the rice that was delivered to the dining hall was problematic?"

Ruoshui did not say it directly.

But she exchanged glances with the others, and they all understood what she meant.

While picking vegetables and cooking rice, the players were also pondering the question posed by the monk Huiming.

Finally, two conclusions were drawn—

Or perhaps, as Ruoshui guessed, two different kinds of rice were taken into Cibei Temple;

Or perhaps the rice, after entering the dining hall, turned into insect eggs during the cooking process by the head monk.

Regardless of the situation, it is very clear that Monk Huiming was protecting his young disciple.

While it was said to be to train the young novice monks to be independent, the real purpose was to keep them as far away from the abnormality of Cibei Temple as possible.

After all, situations like attending early morning classes can be avoided through rules and regulations.

The only thing that couldn't be done was to provide special meals for the young monks in the dining hall.

Let him just eat clean food in the vegetable garden by himself.

Monk Huiming was absolutely different from the other monks who had fallen into the abnormality of Cibei Temple!
He knew perfectly well that something was wrong with the anomaly here!
Sure enough, clues about the unusual activities at Cibei Temple could be gradually found through this young novice monk.

Everyone quickly finished their meal and rested for a while.

Wu Xiaoyou looked at the young novice monk working in the vegetable garden and asked:
"Young monk, may I ask where I can find the Venerable Master Huiming?"

The other party did not hide anything at all.

Looking at the sky, he said, "Master should be practicing in the meditation hall at this time."

"Perfect timing. I also need to go to the meditation hall to meditate and cultivate myself. If any of you are interested, you may come along."

After saying that, he laboriously put the work tool, which was taller than himself when it stood up, back in its original place, washed the mud off his hands and the dust off his face with some water, and walked into the temple.

Everyone naturally chose to follow.

We certainly wouldn't let him just leave after we'd finally found a lead.

As he was about to leave the vegetable garden, Wu Wang looked back at this place that was somewhat isolated from the temple.

He always felt something was off.

But I can't quite put my finger on where it is.

Everything seemed to be progressing too smoothly.

Whether it's the main quest or a side quest, what you get is no different from what other players get.

The Abyss God didn't come out to cause trouble for me in this dungeon?

Something's wrong...something's really wrong...

Wu Wang's self-awareness has always been very clear.

Although I hate to admit it, judging from my luck with this dungeon, if things go smoothly so far...

That seems to suggest only one possibility—

The dungeon is brewing something big! (End of Chapter)
