Chapter 344: Truly Burnt Out!

Lin Xuan returned to the Initial Secret Room, saw Chen Ran and the others, and also saw the twelve doors that were not closed. The corners of his mouth turned up.

"What's the good news? It's making you smile so insidiously," Qiu Hua asked.

Lin Xuan took a puff of his cigarette, couldn't hold back his smile, coughed twice, and then said, "I just advised Ye Qian to commit suicide."

As soon as these words came out, the players in the Initial Secret Room all widened their eyes. Right now, there was only one cat left in that building, Ye Qian. If...

She committed suicide!

Wouldn't Shu Renjun have no way left to play?

Moreover, regardless of whether Ye Qian committed suicide or not, her ending would be death.

"Hahahahaha!"

Lin Xuan laughed exceptionally rampantly, but the next moment, a muzzle was pointed at him.

Bang. The bullet burst out of the chamber, passed through Lin Xuan, and jammed into his skull.

Lin Xuan slowly fell down.

"This is..."

He died with unwillingness. The next moment, the Initial Secret Room turned back into the previous Secret Room, which was the building with eighteen floors.

Eighth floor.

Shu Renjun looked at Lin Xuan's corpse and said aloud, "Do you still want to keep playing?"

Almost instantly.

In the other five spaces, the Lin Xuan who originally thought he was in the 【Initial Secret Room】 couldn't help but break into a cold sweat, his body trembling, "This is... something I imagined?"

Snap.

As if something had shattered, the Lin Xuans in the five spaces once again saw the familiar stairs and floors, as well as Ye Qian, who seemed to have also fallen into imagination and was motionless.

The Lin Xuans in the five spaces turned their heads stiffly and saw a pitch-black muzzle pointed at them.

It was because all six Lin Xuans had already said: I just advised Ye Qian to commit suicide.

But in fact, advising Ye Qian to commit suicide was just something he imagined.

Therefore, all six Lin Xuans lied.

In other words, Lin Xuan clearing the stage was also something he imagined.

Theoretically speaking, how could Shu Renjun let Lin Xuan clear the stage first?

Because once Ye Qian committed suicide, the Secret Room would only be left with rats, and Shu Renjun would be trapped in the Secret Room forever.

See, Shu Renjun used the effect of the Forbidden Book not only to bluff out Lin Xuan's final killer move, but also to trick out...

The lies of six Lin Xuans!

The closer one is to success, the closer one is to death.

The weight of this sentence was displayed vividly and thoroughly at this moment. Lin Xuan used this principle, wanting to trap Shu Renjun to death, and Shu Renjun used this principle to trick a lie out of Lin Xuan.

"Although I don't know which Lin Xuan in which space is real, I can try them one by one. You have one minute to transfer me to another space, and then you'll be touched by the Ye Qian from another space." Shu Renjun pointed his muzzle at Lin Xuan and said calmly.

He was the last rat to be touched by a cat, so his remaining time was definitely longer than Lin Xuan's. So he wanted Lin Xuan to be touched by the Ye Qian from another space, in order to reset the two-hour timer.

Lin Xuan was nervous as hell. This time, he deeply felt the terror of a Five-Star.

"Are you a fucking devil?"

"Also, weren't you afraid just now that the Lin Xuan you killed was the real Lin Xuan?"

Shu Renjun smiled, "The Shu Renjun in each space has his own judgment. Since he chose to Judge, it means the one he Judged was definitely not the real Lin Xuan."

"Also, stop playing these petty tricks that people can see through at a glance. I can let you go this time, but in the cat-and-mouse game, if you dare to commit the same offense again, I will kill you!"

What Shu Renjun said was an...

Affirmative statement!

At the same time, it was also a Future Lie. As long as Lin Xuan still dared to play tricks, he would definitely kill Lin Xuan; otherwise, the sentence above would be a lie.

Lin Xuan smiled bitterly and looked up at the Forbidden Book floating on the ceiling of the eighteenth floor.

He knew that the trick just now could only be played once. If he dared to commit it again, the Forbidden Book could make him produce imagination, thereby tricking out a lie. Then, truly even immortals wouldn't be able to save him.

He slowly raised his gun.

"Liar-Slayer: Magic Cube World!"

The Secret Room went dark.

When the light returned, Lin Xuan walked up to the Ye Qian in another space, and upon seeing this, the latter touched him like a starving tiger pouncing on its prey.

After the Confirmation.

Lin Xuan turned into a Ghost State. After the ten minutes ended, he still needed to wait another two hours without being caught to clear the stage.

Meanwhile, the time Shu Renjun needed to wait was less than an hour.

Therefore, the final result would definitely be Shu Renjun clearing the stage first, and Lin Xuan clearing it later.

Simply put.

In this showdown...

Lin Xuan was struck so hard he lost his temper completely!

Shu Renjun was as steady as an old dog!

…

The real Ye Qian, she was transferred to a certain space. In this space, there were three cats. Of course, from a God's-eye perspective, two of the cats must have been transformed from rats.

But Ye Qian didn't know.

Moreover, there were also three rats in this space. Under various confusions, Ye Qian didn't realize at all that among the six spaces, she was the only real cat left.

Therefore, she didn't produce the thought of committing suicide to threaten Lin Xuan.

However, let's imagine for a moment. Ye Qian's only possibility of surviving was to threaten Lin Xuan with suicide, but she was confused by superficial appearances.

One could only say: if you're a noob, you need more practice.

Of course, this "noob" status meant she was the biggest noob among the remaining players, completely unable to keep up with the game of wits.

Unfortunately.

She no longer had the chance to practice.

An unknown amount of time passed.

She discovered in horror that all the original cats and rats in the Secret Room had vanished.

She searched every room like a madwoman. She screamed until her voice went hoarse, begging for a cat or a rat to show themselves.

Even if it was just to let her take a glance from afar.

But in the entire building, apart from her echoes, there was nothing else.

Once two hours had passed.

She knew clearly that no rats being caught meant all the rats had cleared the stage.

Ye Qian kneeled and sat on the ground.

She straightened out her clothes.

Took a mirror out of her bag, wiped the dust off her face, and tidied her hair.

"Rather than being trapped here and starving to death, it's better to..."

Speaking up to here, she took out a photo treasured for many years from her breast pocket.

There was a man and a woman on it.

The man looked proud.

The woman looked shy.

"We already said our goodbyes once while alive, I didn't expect we'd say goodbye again after death. You said you liked me looking radiant. See, even before I die, I have to carefully dress myself up."

The next moment, Ye Qian's eyes grew firm.

"I lied."

"You lied."

She aimed the muzzle at her own temple, pulled the trigger, and fell to the ground.

Ye Qian, dead!

Looking at her overall performance in this instance.

One could only say...

When she should have performed, she didn't perform well.

When she shouldn't have performed, she performed recklessly.

Conclusion: A background character.

This was an inevitable result, because among the people who survived, apart from Gao Lan...

Every single one of them was stronger than her!

…

In the Initial Secret Room, there were still two doors that hadn't been cleared. Judging from the previous secret rooms, these two doors should lead to the same Secret Room, so...

Chen Ran and the others waited silently.

They wouldn't let go of any opportunity to engage in Infighting. After all, everyone in this instance had no choice.

It was either you die, or I live.

A long time passed.

The Five-Star player, Shu Renjun, appeared in the Secret Room. He vigilantly looked around all four directions, and then scanned Chen Ran and the others. Only then was he certain that he had indeed cleared the Secret Room.

Seeing this, Chen Ran and the others' eyelids twitched.

They were very surprised. What exactly happened in the aftermath in that building to make this easygoing Five-Star powerhouse so cautious?

After roughly another hour or so.

Lin Xuan also cleared the stage.

His reaction was almost identical to the Five-Star player's. He vigilantly looked around all four directions, scanned Chen Ran and the others, and upon seeing ten closed doors, finally confirmed that he had cleared the stage.

Lin Xuan randomly found a spot to sit down.

His gaze fell on Chen Ran.

'This guy, if he hadn't constructed a Deceiver's Tongue, I wouldn't have even known how to deal with Shu Renjun's Forbidden Bookstore!'
