My chuunibyou self: All my fantasies have come true

Are we going to die?

"What's going on here? Didn't the guidelines say we should build temples?"

Some people are still completely confused, and the rest are just as clueless as him.

“The rules are fake,” Lu Jing said. “They were a lie to us from the very beginning, and the villagers were fake too.”

Fan Zhiyu felt that he should die knowing why.

"If the rules are false, then why did Gao Mingyuan die?"

"Don't turn back once you're up the mountain, two people shouldn't draw water from the well, don't dry clothes at night, and don't blow the whistle at midnight! Aren't these all true?"

Lu Jing said, "That's right, these are true, because these rules have always existed."

This village has always been associated with many ghosts and spirits, which is why the mountain god protects the village.

Have you seen "Hidden Leaves in the Forest" or "The ABC Murder Case"?

The killer committed the first three murders only to cover up his intention to kill the last person.

It added three more rules to the code, allowing us to build temples for it.

They wouldn't let us go to the ancestral hall because it contains the family genealogy.

The genealogy is forged, and the villagers with the surname Zhang have long been detained.

To prevent villagers with the surname Li from causing trouble, they also told us not to trust any villagers with the surname Li.

And we will certainly not dare to violate the rules again; everything will proceed according to its will.

"That...that villager surnamed Zhang?" the monkey asked.

Lu Jing explained, "The villagers surnamed Zhang are just like us; they are adventurers who failed their missions and got lost here."

Those villagers surnamed Li are the original inhabitants.

The group looked at Lu Jing in surprise.

Lu Jing continued, "The story is set against the backdrop of a severe earthquake that destroyed the mountain god temple, which led us to rebuild it."

I suspect that the great earthquake caused the original mountain god to lose its power, or rather, to be injured.

Then, something else wanted to take the opportunity to replace the mountain god, which is why we needed to build a temple for it.

Now that the temple is built, they no longer need us, so the villagers will want to kill us.

After listening to Lu Jing's explanation and considering their current situation, they had no choice but to believe it.

Zhang Songgan gave Lu Jing a deep look. "You... you thought of this a long time ago, why didn't you tell us?"

"I only recently confirmed this hypothesis myself," Lu Jing said.

"Damn it!! I've been tricked."

Fan Zhiyu leaned his head against the wooden board in despair.

"It's too late now."

"Let's escape!" the monkey said anxiously. "Perhaps there's still a chance!"

“Escaping won’t help,” Cao Lihao said in a deep voice.

The area outside has been surrounded by villagers.

But even if they weren't surrounded, what would be the point of escaping?

They can neither destroy the temple nor defeat the large number of villagers.

Once they moved the shrine to the mountain god temple, everything was settled.

They were destined for failure.

Silence, a deathly silence.

Fan Zhiyu thought back on the past few days and found it all laughable!

That's absolutely ridiculous.

How could he be so naive as to think that this instance would be so simple?

They were simply asked to build temples.

Even the rules are clearly written on the signs for them, and as long as they are not triggered, nothing will happen.

Even the last chance to salvage the situation.

I stopped them all myself.

"Pfft!"

Just then, Fan Zhiyu caught a glimpse of blood out of the corner of his eye.

He raised an eyebrow, looking at Lu Jing in shock.

Lu Jing raised his knife and chopped off Zhang Songgan's head.

"Are you crazy?!" Miao Miao said. "At a time like this, you're still fighting amongst yourselves?"

Cao Lihao couldn't help but frown.

Just now, Zhang Songgan fired a shot, breaking Lu Jing's hand.

I guess this was done in retaliation?

Since I'm going to die anyway, I might as well vent my anger before I die.

This kid really holds a grudge.

Zhang Songgan's head rolled to the ground like a ball, spinning around a few times before stopping against the wall.

A look of confusion lingered on his face, his eyes wide open, as if he couldn't believe he was dead.

Blood gushed from the severed neck, splattering on the walls and floor, forming a crimson bloodstain.

An ordinary knife would never be able to decapitate a person in one strike.

But what he was holding was the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow, specially issued by the organization.

Lu Jing's hand holding the knife trembled slightly.

But soon, his eyes returned to calm.

Lu Jing snatched the lighter from Fan Zhiyu's hand.

This time, the flames shot up instantly.

Immediately afterwards, the fire spread rapidly, burning fiercely along the mountain temple.

Lu Jing had already poured strong liquor all around the mountain god temple.

The liquor fueled the fire, making it even more ferocious and difficult to control.

"Holy crap, what's going on!?"

Everyone inside the temple was stunned.

"This kid is definitely strange!"

Still not satisfied, Lu Jing chopped Zhang Songgan's head again with his knife.

"Zhang Songgan? Him?"

Cao Lihao looked incredulous.

The others had the same expression, even if someone in the group had a problem.

No one would suspect Zhang Songgan.

With this guy's body, a gust of wind came.

“He is the only one among us who has never cut down a tree or built a temple.”

Cao Lihao said, "So?"

"The fake mountain god cannot build its own temple, so it tricks us into helping it build one."

How can you be so sure it's him?

"There's no certainty, just a trial. We're all going to die anyway, so it doesn't matter if we die sooner or later," Lu Jing said calmly.

In fact, he hadn't said anything else.

Because Zhang Songgan was the only one in the entire team who understood architecture.

However, the fat guy in their team who knew about architecture failed to enter the dungeon.

The monkey gave Lu Jing a deep look.

Damn! This kid is fucking wicked.

He clearly looks like a newcomer.

He speaks like an idiot.

Because you can't understand what he's saying, and he's talking to himself from time to time.

But the things he does are nothing short of crazy.
