Chapter 846: A Box That Grew Two Legs! Fleeing the Building Body!

~7 min read 1,294 words

One is a walking Treasure.

The other is a rule constraint.

The two can be unified into one category.

After all, they are both Hidden Mechanisms of the same era.

But why…

Is Su Yang special?

In the end, the one who is special is the person.

Or the Innate Talent?

Ji Huai boasts that he understands properly; if he lacked overwhelming certainty, he would certainly not take a reckless approach.

But Su Qi's words moved him.

Now Yue Zhao has even conjured up a Big Figure.

Directly overturning all his previous conjectures.

So…

Whose words are more trustworthy after all?

Not only him, Su Yang also harbors suspicion.

The reason is none other than that the person Ji Huai mentioned is too "authoritative".

At least when the Information Gap is large enough, whoever can occupy a high position holds the voice.

Currently the fog is thick; Su Yang cannot determine how deep Yue Zhao's cooperation with Sister Yao Ri has gone.

If there is a hint of compassion within it, what exactly is she trying to imply?

Thinking of this, Su Yang lifts his gaze to stare at the smiling Yue Zhao.

His stark black‑and‑white pupils appear especially clear under the red light.

"The Yao Ri you speak of is the woman at the Round Table Meeting?"

"Otherwise?"

"New Era meetings naturally must be convened by New Era players; Yao Ri entered the meeting twice in a row, so how could she be the Old Era Remnant Faction?"

"The reasoning is correct, then how do you explain the Fox's entry into it?"

Su Yang lightly presses his lips, and in a calm voice says: "So you mean Yao Ri is also an Old Era player who waded in through murky waters?"

"The world is vast and full of wonders; you simply don't know because your Cognition is low." Yue Zhao's words contain no hint of mockery.

All there is is the patience of a good teacher imparting knowledge.

Su Yang fell into silence the moment he heard that.

Obviously, analyzing from the timeline.

Yue Zhao's approach to Sister Yao Ri should have been after the first meeting ended.

Or perhaps Yao Ri proactively sought Yue Zhao.

Regardless of order, Yue Zhao spent his focus solely to have Yao Ri point out a broad road for him.

And at the second meeting, Sister Yao Ri openly declared her identity.

Su Yang only learned this secret after that.

"So she told you… that as long as you kill me you can obtain everything you want?" Su Yang asked.

"I said, this is only the First Place." Yue Zhao said.

"Since this is the hard‑won information you bought, why tell it to me?" Su Yang asked again.

"It concerns you; how could I keep it to myself?"

"Is this a declaration of the successful?"

"I wouldn't dare say that; there's still more than an hour left before success."

"Dong dong dong…"

Suddenly, a series of footsteps sounded behind.

Su Yang turned his head and saw several Springheads charging straight at him.

At the instant they received his gaze, they froze.

Obviously, they were all aimed at Su Yang.

With the Energy Core in hand, monsters throughout the Building Body would rush forward.

In addition, two Xiao Hei moved at extreme speed, one ahead of the other, attacking Su Yang.

Their speed was so great it left afterimages.

But Su Yang need not worry about any of this.

The woman beside him directly took the Electric Gun from his Waist.

She casually turned Xiao Hei into ash with electricity.

From her speed, Su Yang guessed the woman's Gene Modification was roughly at the seventh level.

And Yue Zhao, as an Ascend God Seed, would be stronger than her.

At the same time, this fellow wasn't wearing an oxygen mask.

This puzzled him greatly.

After Xiao Hei was cleared, only three Springheads remained standing.

Su Yang, without turning his head, said: "So you, based solely on one side's words, have exhausted your fortune and handed it all over?"

"I have my own method of verification; you need not worry about that." Yue Zhao said.

"Then do you know her background? What if she's a professional con artist?" Su Yang asked.

"I see you probing in every way; could it be that you harbor a lucky hope?" Yue Zhao asked.

"We still have plenty of time left; if we're idle, let's chat." Su Yang suggested.

"It seems you still cling to that lucky hope; it's useless—the entire Building Body has already been Blockaded by my people; outsiders can't get in, and those inside can't get out," Yue Zhao said.

Su Yang smiled, neither objecting nor agreeing.

In his view, Yue Zhao had indeed made an extremely precise deployment.

At this moment, Liu Pangzi must be hiding in the Dark Place, quietly teleporting people over.

To ensure absolute certainty, Yue Zhao would certainly make thorough backup deployments.

Yet despite his countless calculations, he failed to account for the sheer variety of Monsters.

Before long, a pleasant sound suddenly rang out.

"Ding—"

Like the music released when a Music Box opens, ethereal and crisp.

At that moment, Ji Huai's complexion suddenly changed, "Boss, it's a Music Box!"

As soon as the words fell, a square box suddenly emerged from the far corner.

The box hovered in midair, looking as if it were crossing the void.

Yet when it drew near the crowd, they discovered—

It actually had two human legs attached at the bottom!

And the Music Box walked straight up to Su Yang, bobbing up and down.

The scene was exceedingly bizarre.

Yue Zhao observed for a moment, his expression unchanged, "Is this also a Monster?"

"This thing is especially ferocious; once the music ends, it will transform into a fierce ghost!" Ji Huai said gravely.

"How long?" Yue Zhao asked.

"At most fifteen minutes!"

"How to break it?"

"All beings inside the Building Body must leave entirely, otherwise it will hunt across the whole map without pause!"

"Hard to deal with?"

"Unless one is Divine, no one can escape!"

"What about me?"

"This…"

Ji Huai was instantly at a loss for words.

Strictly speaking, at this moment Yue Zhao could not be considered a living being.

Once the fierce ghost appears, he might be able to use his Innate Talent to avoid death.

But he and Su Yang cannot escape the peril.

Yue Zhao's brow twitched slightly, clearly he was unwilling to go out.

After all, the outside holds great uncertainty.

As long as he remains inside the Building Body, he can be confident of controlling the whole situation.

And with just over an hour left until the Achievement unlocks, the Music Box is ahead, seemingly unable to stay long.

"Take him out, and be sure to guarantee Brother Su Yang's safety; if he loses even a single hair, you must atone with your life!" Yue Zhao said lightly.

It was filled beyond doubt.

The woman nodded in agreement and immediately grabbed Su Yang, sprinting forward.

Being lifted off the ground by someone felt like riding a high-speed train.

The surrounding scenery changed rapidly.

The feeling was very unpleasant; Su Yang could only cling to her sleeve, seeking a bit of security.

"Hey, tell me, you work for Yue Zhao; how many Faith Value do you get per month?"

The woman said nothing.

Su Yang, seeing this, continued: "He emptied his entire fortune just to take my life; after that, do you helpers get any benefit?"

"By the way, he probably wants me to unlock a rare Hidden Achievement, right?"

"If I discard the Energy Core, does that mean the plan fails?"

"He wants to use me as a springboard, but if I sincerely sabotage his plan, what then?"
