Chapter 227: Must Eat Nine Skills?
Diwu Zeyi fired a shot to knock away the Gun in Tong Fei's hand, and then warned her with his eyes.
Seeing this.
Chen Ran quickly ran towards the middle of the Secret Room.
When the python's bloody maw was about to touch Chen Ran, it was bounced away by his Liar-Slayer's protection mechanism. Chen Ran arrived in front of the Meteorite very smoothly.
He picked up the Meteorite and smashed it fiercely against the ground.
It didn't break.
He couldn't help but look towards the hole entrance. Very quickly, under the cover of Diwu Zeyi, he came to the ground.
Seeing the triangular building and the round hole in the middle, his eyes lit up.
'Since the ancient Loulan civilization could build such a building, that explains that at that time they weren't situated within a mirage.'
He embedded the Meteorite into the round hole. The size was exactly suitable, fitting tightly without a gap.
The next moment.
Chen Ran's eyes changed, looking around in bewilderment. On the ground, Diwu Zeyi returned to his senses.
"Dr. Chen, you have nothing to do, why are you standing so high?"
Chen Ran closed his eyes, sitting up there smoking a Cigarette in despair: "It seems..."
"It is us who lost!"
As soon as his voice fell, this world became fragmented and shattered, including the four NPCs.
...
Wangchuan Road Station.
The player who had finished using [A Single Leaf as a Boat] saw that the four were still walking corpses. He looked at the teammate beside him, gesturing for him to also use a Skill.
That Youth had just raised his Gun when a voice originating from the soul sounded.
"Liar-Slayer: Eternal Kingdom."
The Youth discovered in astonishment that he unexpectedly couldn't use his Skill.
At the same time, in front of the four, that giant net composed of light rays also disappeared accordingly, no longer restricting the actions of the four.
After ten-odd seconds.
Feng Xiao fell to the ground!
After another dozen seconds.
Tong Fei fell to the ground!
Dead!
Both died. This scene made their respective teammates' eyes split with anger.
Although a long time had passed in the mirage, in this Secret Room it had only been a short few tens of seconds, and their team leaders were dead.
Myriad thoughts were in each of their minds.
Someone thought of the words spoken by the one who previously claimed to be the 9th True Self Player.
Some hoped that Chen Ran and Diwu Zeyi would mutually slaughter each other in the Meteorite Mirage.
However, the hopes of this kind of people were destined to fall through, only because...
The originally walking corpses Chen Ran and Diwu Zeyi suddenly opened their eyes, and walked towards them with large strides.
And the Meteorite in their line of sight also correspondingly shattered, breaking into slag.
Meaning that the puzzle-solving of Wangchuan Road had already been cracked at this moment. They could take the train to go to the next station [Twin Pavilions Station].
Xu Lang's inner heart could not calm down for a long time.
'The handsome youth and Feng Xiao were both Two-Star Players. I am also Two-Star.'
'They could easily kill the two, which means they can easily kill me!'
He swept his gaze over everyone: "Everyone, if someone lies later, let's immediately use our Skills. Maybe, under the superposition of various Skills, we can defeat them."
Chen Ran asked with a strange expression: "Do you want to listen to what you're saying?"
Saying this, he raised the pure white Liar-Slayer in his hand. Under the dim yellow lighting, this Liar-Slayer appeared exceptionally holy and pure.
Xu Lang: "..."
Perhaps, among the numerous opponents Chen Ran had encountered, only this group of players had deeply experienced the despair brought by the Eternal Kingdom.
No longer paying them any attention.
Chen Ran and Diwu Zeyi, the two came to the front of the platform, waiting for the subway to arrive.
"I have a question. Why would a One-Star Instance have a large number of plots involving amnesia or corresponding NPCs of ourselves?"
Diwu Zeyi lit a Cigarette for Chen Ran, and lit one for himself: "Very obviously, one to three-star Instances correspond to the Id. Id Tier Skills are mostly mental types, so this kind of mental-type puzzle-solving would appear. Starting from four-star it's the Ego, mostly physical puzzle-solving."
The two chatted idly.
The rest of the people, after killing the players who drank Meng Po's Soup, stood far away together, avoiding the two like snakes and scorpions.
Their only clue in this Instance was one of the reasons why this line hadn't opened to traffic: Someone had placed the Meteorite capable of manufacturing a mirage here at Wangchuan Road.
Xu Lang looked at the remaining eight people. Among these eight people, three were his teammates.
His line of sight swept past the three and looked at the handsome youth, namely Tong Fei's teammate: "You guys should be Ghost Whisperers, right? Chen Ran's Skill can decipher our Skills, but the premise is that someone lies for him to be able to use the Skill. And you are Ghost Whisperers, who can use your respective Skills under the situation where no one lies. We'll rely on you. If your Skills can mutually coordinate, that would be even better."
Tong Fei's teammate, Good Bai, looked at Tong Fei's corpse not far away: "You guys should know he constructed a Deceiver's Tongue, and we are his teammates, as well as participants in the construction of his Deceiver's Tongue. But, we're currently not sure whether his Deceiver's Tongue has been broken."
Everyone was silent.
"Right, did the player who spoke the Deceiver's Tongue previously die?" Xu Lang asked.
"Died."
The hearts of the nine people gradually sank to the bottom of the valley.
However... they still had one final path to walk.
...
Chen Ran and Diwu Zeyi were standing on the platform smoking. Glimpsing the nine people group-chatting, Diwu Zeyi frowned and said: "They're probably determining who will provide a lie."
As long as someone provided a lie, then Chen Ran couldn't be certain who was lying, and wouldn't be able to use his Skill before a second person lied.
Simply put.
The nine people could use Skills, while Chen Ran and the other, not knowing who was lying, could not use Skills. This point was very dangerous.
Nine Skills was no joke.
"This story tells us... as a person, one cannot be too high-profile, otherwise one will be collectively targeted." Chen Ran said gravely.
"If it's like this, we should crack this Heart Secret Room within an hour."
Chen Ran's Skill lasted for one hour. They had to kill the nine people before it ended. Otherwise, once they used nine Skills...
The two would highly likely be done for.
Thinking of this, the two Shameless ones decided to quietly go forward... and eavesdrop.
"My Skill can make the one hit uncontrollably believe the seventh or eighth sentence I speak."
Chen Ran: Seven mouths and eight tongues?
Diwu: Useless against me.
"My Skill can make the body of the one hit stiffen for two seconds every minute. It can be used with traps to pit people."
Chen Ran: Paralysis ring?
Diwu: Still useless against me.
Hearing this, the nine people stopped speaking, and in unison turned their heads to look at the two eavesdropping.
Chen Ran pondered slightly.
'It seems these words were deliberately spoken for us to hear, wanting to make us think that one of them is lying.'
'Of course, it's also possible that one of these two really is lying.'
'True and false.'
'Void and solid.'
'Sure enough, Two-Star Players are none of them mentally retarded, knowing how to create a smokescreen.'
Waiting for nearly twenty minutes, they didn't see the train arrive for a long time. Chen Ran's and Diwu Zeyi's hearts suddenly gave a thump.
'Could it be that we have to walk to the next station? Now we're in trouble!'
'If we walk to the next station, and the remaining nine people wait for Eternal Kingdom to end before going to the next station, that means...'
'We will definitely eat nine Skills!'
