Excessive ferocity due to caution

Enter the conference room.

The place was very empty, with only a few ghostly creatures exuding an aura of authority in the room.

At the other end of the rectangular bone table, Zhao Yi saw the dark figure sitting in a seat, playing cards.

He was a man dressed in a white floral shirt, resembling a nobleman from Central Europe in the 19th century.

It sized up Zhao Yi, who exuded murderous intent, and was quite surprised:

"We misjudged the situation..."

As soon as it finished speaking, it corrected itself:

"No...it must be that they misjudged the situation."

Zhao Yi sat down opposite it and placed the two heads on the table.

"It sounds like you're not part of the people behind this cemetery."

The man playing cards put down his cards and stroked his small mustache:

"We are the ones controlling this cemetery."

"But... we are also being controlled."

Zhao Yi raised an eyebrow and smiled:

"Being controlled in a tomb that has been sealed for at least several hundred years?"

The man dealt three cards to Zhao Yi.

"Lift it up and take a look."

Zhao Yi flipped the face-down card over.

Three 8s.

Exactly 24 points.

"Your luck looks pretty good."

The man dealing the cards smiled slightly.

Zhao Yi stared at the cards in his hand, lost in thought.

a long time.

He raised his eyes and asked:

Who is the dealer?

The other person pursed their lips, their gaze fixed on the cards in their hand:

"A group of people who can freely enter and leave a large tomb shrouded in malevolent resentment."

"They woke us up."

"They came in once not long ago."

Zhao Yi:

"What is your intention?"

The man dealing the cards waved his hand and then threw them all onto the table in one swift motion:

"They said...they wanted to play a game."

"Who are you playing with?"

"With an interesting person."

It paused, then looked at Zhao Yi and smiled:

"Maybe it's you...maybe it's not."

"But in any case, you've come in, and you've successfully met me here."

"Actually, I can still resist a little longer... You're a smart man, you must be able to guess that we evil spirits who control the tomb can actually use the power of the tomb's owner, Havel, to some extent..."

"I forgot to introduce you... Havel is the guy you saw in that line of scripture in the elevator before you came up."

"He was the owner of this tomb, from the Amber Forest, a wandering poet."

"Havil was a formidable ferocious being in life... Although we can only draw upon a small amount of his power, dealing with ordinary near-ferocious ferocious beings shouldn't be a problem..."

Zhao Yi took out a cigarette:

"So why not put up a fight?"

The man dealing the cards leaned forward slightly, pressing his index finger against his temple.

"I inherited some interesting traits from Havel, such as his keen sixth sense."

"When I first met you, I knew you were a very dangerous guy."

"So I deliberately used two trigger-type curses to have a brief 'communication' with you."

"Your performance makes me feel...you can help us."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yi, who was fumbling for a lighter, stopped and slightly raised his eyelids:

"You killed my men, and you expect me to help you?"

"You're such a shrewd businessman... even capitalists would be moved to tears by your skills."

The man dealing the cards explained:

"We did kill your men...but it wasn't our intention."

"Including those of our kind outside, they think we are enslaving and exploiting them, but little do they know that we are protecting them."

"It's like someone stabbing your subordinate to death with a knife, and you going after the knife to seek revenge... Isn't that absurd?"

Zhao Yi reached for the lighter, but did not immediately light the cigarette:

"A ghost is a ghost, and a knife is a knife."

"Two different things."

The man dealing the cards shrugged:

"At least... let them die first."

Zhao Yi gently rubbed the tips of his fingers, which were holding a cigarette, together.

"Who exactly are they?"

The dealer replied:

"A bunch of people who are entertained to death."

Zhao Yi first frowned, then his brows relaxed and he said:

"I see……"

At first, he was conflicted.

Why did the entertainment company send him a business contract instead of an invitation to participate in some reality show...?

This was very unusual in Zhao Yi's eyes.

That doesn't fit the usual practices of entertainment companies.

In retrospect, that letter was not a contract at all.

It was an invitation.

Invite Zhao Yi to join the game.

From the day they sent Zhao Yi a letter... a new reality show had already begun!

"So... I wasn't the only one who received the letter."

The letter he received hinted that Zhao Yi intended to take over the abandoned city.

This means that most people in the abandoned city also received the letter... to capture Zhao Yi!

The dealer raises his hand.

A ghost brought Zhao Yi a special business card.

It is exquisitely crafted and exudes an extremely profound power.

PS: Okay!

4500.

I feel ashamed.

It's been revised and modified a lot.

I'll reward myself in my dreams... but I should punish myself!

Good night!!
