Life Dungeon Game

While He Ao managed to find Mu Xiu's trail in the surveillance footage, he couldn't actually help. No matter how quick-witted he was, he couldn't keep up with the data collection and processing speed of Selena's prosthetic eye.

So after spotting the woman in red in the crowd, he immediately followed her, wondering what was so special about her, and also to wander around the casino's VIP area to see if he could spot Mu Xiu.

After all, Ludo had previously said that Mushu entered the VIP channel.

Although the VIP area is labeled as such, it's actually quite crowded; it's just a place with higher betting requirements.

He Ao slowly made his way through the crowd, approaching the woman in red step by step.

The woman in red was leaning over the table, seemingly placing a bet, while the men around her pressed themselves close to her body, a knowing gesture.

The woman in red did not reject the men's approach; instead, she shifted her body from time to time, as if she was being squeezed and was embarrassed to say so.

This sport makes men even more excited.

The men completely surrounded the woman in red, making it impossible for He Ao to get close.

"Big!" "Big!" "Big!" "Small!" "Small!" "Big!"

Amid the men's commotion, He Ao simply changed direction and walked to the other side of the gambling table. Since the men were all crowding around the woman in red, this side was relatively empty.

He Ao stood by the gambling table and only then did he see the face of the woman in red.

She lay on the gambling table, her chest pressing slightly against it, creating a slight deformation. Her neckline was very low, vaguely revealing her snow-white skin underneath.

She was quite pretty, better looking than most of the beautiful waitresses at the casino, but not quite as pretty as Selena. However, overall, He Ao felt that she and Selena were about the same size.

What makes up for these differences is her unique temperament. If Selena is heroic and imposing, then the woman in red in front of us can be described as charming and alluring.

She wasn't thin; she had a slender waist, but her breasts and hips were excessively full, which, along with her hips...

The thighs that met each other also vaguely revealed their plump and soft appearance.

Being with this woman would be an extremely pleasurable night.

Moreover, it would be easy to have fun with her.

This thought subconsciously popped into He Ao's mind.

He glanced at the men frantically pushing towards the woman in red; they must all be thinking the same thing.

A word that could describe the scene before him came to He Ao's mind.

'desire'

The woman in red seemed to notice that He Ao was looking at her, but she didn't look at He Ao. Instead, she slowly got up, and the soft fabric that had been squeezed and deformed by the table returned to its original shape.

She took a small half-step back, pushing aside the men who were practically pressed against her, creating a more spacious area for herself.

Then she gently gathered her hair, as if she wanted to tie it up.

But she couldn't find a suitable hair tie.

She hesitated for a moment, then placed her hand on her left leg. Only then did He Ao realize that a strip of cloth was tied around her thigh.

Everyone stopped what they were doing, and even the dealer pressed down on the dice cup, staring blankly at her performance.

He Ao's mind was calm, but his body began to be in a strange state of excitement.

The woman didn't seem to realize that she was in the wrong place. She half-squatted down, moved her left foot, and freed her beautiful, plump bare foot from her high-heeled sandals.

She lifted her beautiful foot and slowly peeled the strip of cloth binding her leg down her thigh, ankle, arch, and red-painted toes.

Then she slowly stood up, tugged at the strip of cloth in her hand, and found it to be just the right elasticity. She gathered her hair up again and used the cloth to tie it up.

In a daze, He Ao seemed to hear the sound of swallowing. Her movements were ordinary, but each step was full of a captivating charm.

“Much easier,” she smiled apologetically at the dealer, picked up the chips from the edge of the table, and leaned on it. “I’m betting on big.”

At that moment, a faint rustling sound came from He's glasses; it was Selena connecting to the call.

"He Ao, we've found Mu Xiu's trail. Now go to the left, all the way to the end, and you'll see a small door. Go through that door and I'll be waiting for you at the exit."

Selena's voice suddenly rang in He Ao's ears. Her tone was calm, but it seemed to have lost some of its previous enthusiasm and was somewhat indifferent.

Upon hearing this, He Ao's first reaction was,

Is Selena watching me through some kind of surveillance camera right now?

······

"Place your order now!"

A loud shout from the dealer snapped the men out of their excitement. After a moment's hesitation, they took out their chips and began placing bets, and the gambling table became lively once again.

Taking advantage of the chaos during the betting break, He Ao flicked his finger, and the locator between his fingers flew precisely to the corner of the woman in red's clothes and stuck to it, hiding in the folds of the garment.

Then he slowly withdrew from the crowd and quickly left to his left.

After he left, the woman in red looked in the direction where he had been standing for the first time.

She smiled, took two steps back, and slowly squeezed out of the crowd.

The men didn't seem to notice that the person who was originally in the middle of the crowd had disappeared; they continued to push and shove excitedly.

The woman looked at the excited crowd, slowly untied the cloth strip that held her hair, and tied it around her plump thigh, creating a shallow, ring-shaped indentation.

Then, amidst the clamor, she turned around and walked into the depths of the crowd, as if she had never been there.

(This chapter has been slightly edited but does not affect the plot. This story is purely fictional. Gambling is harmful, and nine out of ten gamblers lose.)

I recommend a book written by my newly adopted god-sister. Her novel, Dragon Raja, is quite good. Those who are interested can check it out.

Chapter 33 The Transaction (Please add to your favorites, read further, and vote with monthly tickets)

Following Selena's directions, He Ao successfully left the casino. He then received a location from Selena and, after navigating several blocks, encountered Selena, who had captured the man in the black hoodie.

"We've been scammed."

Selena looked at He Ao.

She pulled back the hood of the man she was holding, revealing an ordinary, thin man with a similar build to Mu Xiu. His eyes were bloodshot, and he stared at He Ao with the ferocity of a bloodthirsty beast. On his cheeks, solidified flesh writhed.

“He has been corrupted by the God of Chaos,” Selena released the man and took out an electromagnetic handcuff to cuff him to a nearby lamppost. “However, the corruption is not severe, and there is still hope. Most likely, Mu Xiu is afraid that he will completely lose his mind and become uncontrollable. I have already contacted the Investigation Bureau.”

Then she looked at He Ao, her expression growing increasingly serious. "The worst has happened. Mu Xiu has most likely infiltrated the casino."

Is Viktor very strong?

He Ao suddenly asked.

“Very strong,” Selena nodded, then thought for a moment. “He’s among the strongest in Class D.”

"Level D?"

He was stunned for a moment, and then a memory surfaced in his mind—a memory of Ander during his FBI training.

"Generally, we classify the strength of extraordinary individuals into six levels, from A to F."

These are all pieces of knowledge that can be 'known'. Understanding the specific divisions of power will help improve the survival rate of your investigation work.

The most basic F-rank strength is about two to three times that of an ordinary person. Most cybernetic modifications and mechanical modifications are at this stage. E-rank strength is about five to ten times that of an ordinary person, and D-rank strength is more than fifteen times. As for the higher A to C ranks, try not to come into contact with them or learn about them before you have reached that level of strength.

Remember, the more mysteries you know, the more deeply you become entangled with them.

On the other hand, this classification method isn't actually accurate. Many people may not have the physical strength to reach that level, but they can still exert combat power at the corresponding level through other means. Therefore, the final rating is actually based on a comprehensive evaluation of qualities. When you reach that level, a specialized rating agency will give you a rating.

"Instructor, reporting!"

"explain."

What is the talent sequence?

"Oh, I know you may have learned about a corner of the extraordinary world from other places and are full of curiosity about this unknown world, but I want to tell you that the people who die the fastest are the ones with the strongest curiosity."

Talent sequence can be understood as a kind of superpower, just like the superpowers you see in movies and TV shows, such as being able to grow bigger or smaller, or shooting laser beams from the eyes.

But I must tell you, this is not a good thing. There's no such thing as a free lunch. Do you think you can just go to a bakery and take their bread without paying?

If you don't absolutely need to know this for work, I advise you not to bother learning about it. Our mechanical modification and prosthetic technologies can also give you powerful abilities.

power.

When you touch the abyss, you will fall into the abyss.

The instructor's cold words echoed clearly in He Ao's ears; this was Ander's memory.

As usual, when he came into contact with relevant information, the memories belonging to 'Ander' would naturally surface, but this time the memories were particularly vivid, even giving He Ao a feeling of being there.

However, the memory only lingered for a moment. He continued his previous words, "So, is Mu Xiu stronger than Viktor?"

“Not necessarily,” Selena shook her head, seemingly looking up Mu Xiu’s information. “Although Mu Xiu’s strength is at the top of the D-rank, Victor might not necessarily be unable to defeat him.”

As the owner of the largest casino in Dawn City, Victor has some resources.

"In other words," Heo pondered for a moment, "even if Mu Xiu infiltrated the casino, with Victor around, he wouldn't be able to pull any tricks?"

Victor will definitely protect the interests of the casino; he won't let Mu Xiu kill people indiscriminately in the casino.

Hearing Heo's words, Selena gradually calmed down. She knew that Heo was using the conversation to think and persuade her to calm down.

Looking at the tall young man in front of her, as they spent more time together, she gradually realized that He Ao was a teammate she could rely on.

"Ander, do you have any leads?"

She asked softly, realizing that rushing back to the casino now would be pointless; it would be better to sort out the clues first and sharpen her axe before chopping wood.

“Desire…” He Ao pondered for a moment, then looked at Selena, “Could you send me the activity data of Mu Xiu since his first appearance… as well as the activity data of the Desire Witch’s followers during the same period?”

Heo was just a trainee investigator, and many documents were not directly accessible to him, while Selena had much easier access and could process data much faster.

"Okay, I'll sync your screen. Just tell me what you want to do."

Selena nodded slightly, and with a wave of her hand, she synchronized the screen in her prosthetic eye onto Heo's glasses.

This did solve He Ao's problem; he himself was still not very familiar with operating the electronic devices in the instance world.

Two minutes later...

He Ao stared into the map of the Desire Witch's followers and Mu Xiu's trajectory, and fell into a brief moment of contemplation.
