And at this critical moment...

"Buzz—!!!"

A semi-transparent white halo shot into the sky from the black soil beneath the RV!

The beam of light instantly expanded outwards, locking onto this coordinate, precisely covering a one-kilometer radius around the RV.

The next instant.

Shi Niao Li Ruier was unable to sense Lin Hui!

"What?!"

The bird-like creature Liriel, suspended in mid-air, had an expression of disbelief in its eyes.

It stared at the white halo below and muttered, "What the hell is that?!"

Unconvinced, Liriel flapped her wings and hovered near the white halo.

It stirs up the tempestuous winds of time, it tears with its sharp claws, and it bombards with its divine domain...

However, no matter what methods it used, it could never cross the line!

In her desperation, the bird Liriel circled in the sky, emitting sharp, impotent rages.

At this moment, Seranosh also arrived around the perimeter of the safe zone.

Seranosh's pupil-less eyes were fixed on the black RV in the center of the white halo, and Lin Hui standing on the roof of the vehicle.

Within the aperture.

Lin Hui stood on the roof of the car, the wind whipping his clothes.

With his hands in his pockets, he shouted loudly at the bird Liriel outside:

"I'm sorry, Big Bluebird."

"It seems the god of fate isn't on your side today! This is a mechanism in the game to protect us human players; even if you crash and die here, you're destined to return empty-handed today."

however.

Just at this time.

A cloud of gray mist burst open in the air near Timebird Liriel, and Umulos's figure slowly emerged.

Umulos stared intently at Lin Hui with his amber vertical pupils and sneered, "Heh... kid, you don't need to bluff here."

It turned to look at Liriel and slowly said:

"According to what I learned from human players, this is a 'safe zone' lowered by the game system. Only beings with 'player' status can pass through the barrier and enter. Since you don't have 'player' status, you'll naturally be excluded."

Upon hearing this, Lin Hui's smile froze slightly.

Umulos, watching Lin Hui's changing expressions, smiled even more smugly: "This safety zone isn't permanent; it can only last for eight hours!"

"That means the halo will disappear automatically after eight hours."

"By then, this kid will be ours for the taking."

Upon hearing Umulos's explanation, Tokibird Liriel was taken aback for a moment, then let out a cold laugh.

Its massive body slowly descended to the ground outside the circle of light, folded its wings, and looked at Lin Hui in the RV with a mocking expression, like a cat eyeing a mouse.

"So it's only eight hours..."

Lillie said venomously, "Boy! In eight hours, I'll crush your bones one by one and skin you alive!"

Lin Hui stood on the roof of the car, his lips twitching slightly...

Umulus ruined what was supposed to be a perfectly good scam!

I never expected that bastard Umulus would actually team up with Timebird Liriel and become a qualified strategist.

Just as Lin Hui was pondering how to escape eight hours later.

suddenly!

Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed a ripple-like movement on the light screen to his right.

A massive black shadow, fifty meters tall, ignored the obstruction of the safety circle and pierced straight through the light barrier, suddenly flying into the interior of the light circle!

It was none other than Seranosh, who had twenty-four wings on his back!

"What?!"

Outside the circle, Time Bird Liriel and Umulos simultaneously raised their heads, their eyes widening.

Liriel yelled, "Seranosh, what are you doing?! How did you get in there?!"

But the two of them quickly realized what was happening.

This Seranosh has already secured one of the ten "player" slots! Therefore, he can directly enter the safe zone!

"Hehehe..."

As Seranosh saw himself getting closer and closer to Lin Hui, he let out a sinister laugh.

However, its laughter didn't even last a second.

Just as Seranosh was about to attack Lin Hui!

A sudden change has occurred!

"Buzz—"

Suddenly, the sky within the aperture changed color.

A misty hand, countless times larger than Theranos, materialized out of thin air above the aura without warning!

This misty hand, carrying an irresistible divine might, slammed down upon Seranosh below with lightning speed.

"Snapped!"

A crisp, loud bang.

The powerful 9th-tier being Seranosh was like a chick, tightly gripped in the palm of the misty hand!

"roar--!"

"Let me go!!"

Seranosh struggled frantically, his 73 units of divinity erupting like a volcano.

However, in front of this giant hand of mist that represents the rules of the Mist Land, its power is laughably weak, like that of an infant, and it cannot break free in the slightest!

This scene.

This instantly brought back the terrifying memory of countless years ago when this misty hand forcibly snatched him from the starry sky and threw him into this misty land!

Endless fear and astonishment washed over it like ice water.

next second.

The misty hand tossed Seranosh out of the safe zone, and a system notification echoed through the space: "You violated the rules; your 'Player' status is revoked!"

Looking at the disheveled Seranosh, Lin Hui grinned:

"Within the safe zone, it's absolutely safe! Attacking each other is strictly prohibited! Tsk tsk tsk... What a waste of your 'player' status!"

Umulos was both shocked and furious upon hearing Lin Hui's sarcastic words.

"Kid! Don't get cocky!!!"

"Eight hours! You'll be out eventually! I'll be right outside this circle, waiting for you! You won't escape!!"

Lin Hui shrugged indifferently.

He ignored the three guys outside and turned back into the RV.

He knew very well that they would never leave this place for the sake of the eggs and the brass key.

Once the eight-hour safety period is over and the aura disappears, he will be met with a furious attack from mid-stage 9th and mid-stage 8th tiers!

And now...

His only trump card was Albedo.

Lin Hui entered the living room, looked at Albedo Lysera sitting on the sofa, and asked directly:

"You said before that there was a way to temporarily restore one to the peak of Rank 9..."

"What exactly is that method?"

......

P.S.: Don't be fooled by the protagonist's current passive state; in the end, he will definitely turn the tide and pull off a spectacular feat! Saving everyone from dire straits!
