Chapter 1012: Divine Sacredness Unassailable! A Clever Trick Gone Awry?!

~6 min read 1,200 words

Everyone's faces were flushed with excitement, their complexions turning a deep crimson.

Who could imagine that at this moment, stumbling into such a pathetic abyss, one could still glimpse a sliver of dawn?

Lu Junsheng and Ximen Zhirou exchanged a glance, their eyes showing both delight and hesitation.

The surprise lay in Words Follow Law—just as the front foot finished speaking, the back foot ran into trouble.

The hesitation stemmed from doubt about this person's identity.

"Do you think such a coincidence could happen?" Lu Junsheng asked.

"Hard to say, we're so far from the summit; judging by stature and facial features, the estimate should be correct," Ximen Zhirou said.

"Strange, if he truly is Su Yang, why is he here?"

Lu Junsheng finished, then added, "I mean... what is he doing standing there?"

Looking around, the surrounding crowd was packed tightly together, like a pilgrimage site.

In just a moment, a large group of 'newly joined believers' appeared behind them, encircling them.

Without exception, their eyes were vacant yet oddly displayed an indescribable Desire.

There was appetite, a breeding urge, and also a craving for slaughter.

A thousand faces, impossible to summarize with a single precise word.

But one thing is certain—

Everything is linked to the dazzling light sphere hanging in midair.

Regarding this, everyone hadn't forgotten their original purpose.

First, find the Primary All-Round Recovery Injection!

"Set aside the question of confirmation; rescuing people comes first!" Lu Junsheng shouted.

"Alright!"

Immediately after, the group dispersed in perfect sync, assigning those tasked with searching for Red-Eyed individuals.

Among them, Yu Ning was the fastest.

She directly employed the Fusion Innate Talent, turning herself into a wispy, intangible gas.

At an unbelievable speed she brushed past hundreds of people, precisely confirming whether they carried any stock.

Zhuang Wu's speed was equally swift; he was rescuing a big brother he regarded as family.

Naturally, he was not stingy with his Innate Talent.

His feet left the ground, and his body suddenly became a streak of flowing light.

Seen from above, it resembled an electric arc flashing in the night.

"Extreme Speed?"

Su Yang on the hillside saw the scene, his eyes flickering.

"What's wrong?" Tiger walked over.

A pure white halo floated behind her head.

Divine Sacredness Unassailable.

"Someone actually immune to the effect—interesting," Su Yang's eyes showed a playful glint.

"Isn't this exactly what you wanted?" Tiger gave him a glance.

"That's right, but..." Su Yang paused, looking at the continuously incoming silhouettes, a smile tugging at his mouth,

"still far from enough!"

Tiger clearly understood the calculations in his mind.

But it surely wasn't just for the so‑called urgent task.

He could make a whole pot of dumplings just for a single dish of vinegar.

He could also meticulously devise a trap specifically targeting Xingchen.

But intuition told her this matter was far from that simple.

Perhaps Su Yang already had an answer in his mind long ago.

Inject the Rejuvenation Needle into the Bee Queen to activate her Innate Talent.

Its fundamental purpose was likely to explore the Main Quest.

Clearing the game is the player's primary job.

Other so‑called hidden tasks and rare hidden tasks are merely side pieces.

Of course, for a Top Player like him, such an aura boost is often required.

Therefore, Tiger had no intention of sitting and waiting for death.

"Are any of your Dependents inside?" Su Yang suddenly asked.

Tiger's eyes flashed with radiant light, shaking her head, "No sign yet."

Su Yang pondered briefly, then said, "... If there are any, be sure to mark them, so we don't accidentally harm them later."

Tiger gave a slight nod, then tossed back the same question, "And your Dependents?"

Su Yang examined a few times, slightly disappointed, "I don't have your keen eyesight; among the countless faces, I really can't discern anything."

Tiger gave him a cryptic glance, "You should do eye exercises now."

Su Yang smiled, "If practicing could reach your level, I'd gladly set aside twenty minutes each day."

Tiger muttered a couple of disgruntled lines.

While the two were chatting idly, the diligent crowd below finally got results.

"Found it!"

At that shout, the four all turned to look.

Only under the Radiance emitted by the bee king, Zhuang Wu, excited, raised the Injection.

Tears welled in his eyes, and he was extremely excited.

"Quick, bring it over!" Lu Junsheng was overjoyed in his heart and hurriedly spoke.

Zhuang Wu dashed like a flash to the side of Wang Defa, whose Qi was like a wisp.

Trembling, he thrust the syringe into him.

But just as it was about to pierce the skin, a large hand suddenly grasped his wrist.

Zhuang Wu's trembling hand suddenly stopped, and looking up he saw a resolute gaze.

"I'll help you, give it a jab." Lu Junsheng said softly.

"Mm!" Zhuang Wu did not hesitate, gently inserting the needle.

He then pressed the propellant, and the deep‑blue Liquid slowly flowed into Wang Defa's body.

"He's stopped breathing!" Wang Yuning suddenly spoke.

"What did you say?" Ximen Zhirou forcefully pushed away the approaching 'zombie'.

"All vital signs are gone!" Wen Ran's complexion turned ashen.

"How could this be? He was fine before the Injection, how did he lose his breath after the Injection?" Lu Junsheng forced himself to stay calm and examined carefully.

He discovered Wang Defa's Pupil beginning to dilate, and his skin gradually turning cold.

"Could it be that we were still a step too slow?" Zhuang Wu panicked, clenching his teeth.

"No, Wang Defa must be able to hear us; his willpower is extremely strong, he has endured such a long distance." Ximen Zhirou shook his head.

"Then how do we explain this now? Could it be a problem with the Injection?" Zhuang Wu retorted.

Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze fell onto the syringe.

"Vision Perception!"

Lu Junsheng snatched it, placed it under his Nose and sniffed.

His complexion changed abruptly!

Sight his expression, Ximen Zhirou furrowed his Brow and thought ominously.

Sure enough, Lu Junsheng's following words made everyone's hearts suddenly sink to the bottom of a valley.

"This isn't some kind of recovery medicine…"

"It's Poison!"

What?!

Zhuang Wu's Pupil suddenly contracted, he stared blankly then stepped back two paces.

He looked at Wang Defa's body gradually stiffening, his eyes filled with regret and self‑reproach.

He tightly grasped his hair, murmuring, "Impossible, how could a Poison Needle look the same as the Injection?"

"Could it be that I harmed Brother Fa?"

"I…"

Lu Junsheng, seeing this, hurriedly said, "He is severely wounded and poisoned; as long as we can find the real All-Purpose Recovery Injection, there is still hope!"

Zhuang Wu nodded repeatedly, his eyes regaining some spark, "Yes, yes, there is hope, there must be hope!"

Wen Ran's expression was complex; she moved her lips, but ultimately could not utter the words.

After all, Wang Defa held a high place in Zhuang Wu's heart, and the two shared deep affection.

Since the start of the Second Stage Prison they lived together, during which Wang Defa taught him many things.

He was both teacher and friend, also a relative.

How could she bear to personally cut off his hope?
