86: Chapter 86 The Long Sleeping Palace 13

Something was definitely wrong. Luo Yuejian began to carefully recall what exactly she had on her that could make a monster run away.

After thinking it over, she suddenly remembered that the jet-black monster she had just seen seemed to have Burning scars on its body.

Burning?

Luo Yuejian was silent for a moment, then her gaze suddenly shifted to the bronze oil lamp she had been holding in her hand.

The only thing she had related to fire was this bronze oil lamp. Could it be that this thing had been messing with her all along?

The more Luo Yuejian thought about it, the more plausible it seemed, and she instantly found the ancient bronze oil lamp in her hand displeasing. Regardless of whether this bronze oil lamp was the real culprit that scared off the jet-black monster, Luo Yuejian decided she didn't want to carry it with her anymore.

Thinking this, she didn't hesitate; she blew out the bronze oil lamp and casually shoved it into her pocket.

The passageway was instantly plunged into darkness again.

The jet-black, baby-like monster in the distance seemed to sense something. Its eyes, which had no whites, slowly rotated three hundred and sixty degrees, and its mouth split into a chilling arc before it instantly scrambled towards Luo Yuejian using both its hands and feet at high speed.

Luo Yuejian was completely unaware, even bowing her head in deep thought. After walking for so long, she had finally realized that relying on those teammates to find her on their own wouldn't work. She still had to take the initiative.

However, how to take the initiative was still a difficult point. She wasn't a particularly clever person to begin with, so she really couldn't think of any good ideas for the time being.

Just as she was deep in thought, the jet-black monster had once again spotted Luo Yuejian.

This time, Luo Yuejian did not have that terrifying bronze oil lamp on her. A look of resentment flashed in the monster's eyes, and it accelerated toward Luo Yuejian.

Luo Yuejian didn't notice the black monster at all. To be honest, this wasn't Luo Yuejian's fault; the monster was simply too black, and there was no light in the entire passageway at that moment.

But just as it was less than a meter away from Luo Yuejian, the expression of the jet-black, baby-like monster suddenly turned terrified.

The degree of this terror far exceeded the fear it felt when it previously discovered Luo Yuejian had the bronze oil lamp, as if its soul would scatter the next second.

Without lingering for even a second, the monster immediately turned around and ran, disappearing from the spot in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, Luo Yuejian also discovered in surprise that it seemed to be an earthquake...?

The ground was trembling slightly. Luo Yuejian was surprised and thought to herself, what's the situation? Can there be an earthquake inside a dungeon? Or did something change in this dungeon? I don't know which player triggered it, but that's really awesome.

Such a large-scale tremor was clearly no small matter, and Luo Yuejian instantly felt at ease. Big events are good, big events are great! She wasn't in a hurry now; she just walked aimlessly through the passageway, preparing to meet all changes with consistency~

Five minutes later, she saw the Man in the Suit running towards her in terror, desperate.

Luo Yuejian couldn't help but sneer in her heart, thinking that she hadn't seen anyone looking for her for such a long time, but as soon as something happened, this person showed up.

After seeing her, the Man in the Suit's expression didn't change much; he still looked terrible. He shouted at her in a low voice: "Run!"

After saying this, he rushed past her recklessly, his pace hurried as if something terrifying was chasing him from behind.

Luo Yuejian was not afraid at all, still pretending in her heart that she had to go and see the situation to judge what to do, and then she excitedly ran in the direction from which the Man in the Suit had come.

At this moment, in Luo Yuejian's livestream room:

[ What is Goddess Moon doing? ]

[ I don't get it, didn't the Man in the Suit say to run? ]

[ Goddess Moon, come back!!! Don't go over there, it's too terrifying over there!!! ]

[ Holy crap, that scared the hell out of me. Just came back from the Man in the Suit's side, damn, it's literally a nightmare! Wait a second, where is Goddess Moon running to?? Why do I feel like she's running the wrong way...? ]

[ You're not wrong, Goddess Moon is running in the direction the Man in the Suit was fleeing from... ]

[ 666, there are only two outcomes for this wave: either she feeds, or she shows off. ]

[ Looking forward to it. Goddess Moon is definitely not the type to hard-engage without certainty; she must have discovered something. ]

[ Although you all say that, I still can't imagine how Goddess Moon can survive in that kind of scene, it's really too terrifying... ]

[ If it weren't for Goddess Moon's previous performance, I would definitely think she was acting... ]

[ That would be hilarious. ]

[ Nice, Goddess Moon is a veteran actor, hahahahahaha. ]

Ten minutes later, Luo Yuejian finally saw the culprit that caused the Man in the Suit to be so terrified.

Her body completely stiffened, and her eyes stared straight at the black tide of Poisonous Insects sweeping forward like a raging sea. These bugs were densely packed together, even piled on top of each other, as if there were no end. Spiders, centipedes... all kinds of Poisonous Insects were intertwined, almost all of them jet-black in color, making one feel their deadly poison at a glance.

Not only the walls, but even the ground was covered with these creepy bugs; the entire space was occupied by them, to the extent that just one look would cause nightmares.

No wonder that Man in the Suit's expression was like he had seen a ghost; damn, this is way more terrifying than a ghost, okay?!

Luo Yuejian didn't even need the system's warning; she turned around and started running.

Having fought with the system, this dog, for so long, she had gained some experience. She definitely couldn't be careless while running away, but if she occasionally turned her head to observe the situation during the escape, the system usually wouldn't issue a warning.

The black tide of Poisonous Insects surged in from all directions, and from time to time, a large wave of bugs would suddenly dash out from the sides of the walls, obviously crawling out from those side paths.

After running for who knows how long, Luo Yuejian looked back again and found a man wearing a leather jacket who had appeared behind her at some point. He was holding an oil lamp and running desperately forward.

Or rather... he was desperately trying to get closer to Luo Yuejian.

Seeing Luo Yuejian look back at him, the Leather Jacket Man revealed a strange smile at her, and then with a flick of his hand, something purple was thrown toward Luo Yuejian.

What was that?

Luo Yuejian couldn't react at all, her legs still subconsciously running forward due to inertia. However, the next second, Luo Yuejian discovered in surprise that her feet suddenly couldn't move, as if they were stuck to the ground.

She looked down, and only then did she finally know what the thing the Leather Jacket Man had thrown at her was.

It was a piece of purple chewing gum.

It was stuck directly under Luo Yuejian's feet.

This chewing gum was clearly a prop, and its function was now also very obvious; it had extreme stickiness, capable of making the player who stepped on it unable to move, forcing them to stand passively on the spot.

Luo Yuejian never expected that besides the Man in a Suit with a Rose, there were other players who had props, so she was completely caught off guard and naturally fell for it.

She really had no calculation in this wave; it was purely due to the Leather Jacket Man's own efforts.

Luo Yuejian was so moved she was almost in tears, thinking that after so many games, she had finally! Finally met a reliable teammate!

For a moment, her gaze towards the Leather Jacket Man was full of gratitude, and the corners of her mouth even forced up a slight arc.

Thank you, Leather Jacket Man!
