88: Chapter 88 The Long Sleeping Palace 15

"Awesome, awesome..."

"Keep barking, keep barking. This is still a coincidence, right? I get it~"

"Nothing to say this time, right? Let's see who dares to talk trash now."

"As expected of Moon God. This wave scared the living daylights out of me, yet Moon God didn't even care."

"So Moon God could have solved Leather Jacket Man's item long ago. It seems Moon God really wasn't panicked at all... But honestly, if it were me, even if I knew I had an item that could ward off Poisonous Insects, I definitely couldn't be this calm."

"The dense swarm of bugs would give me nightmares just looking at it. Moon God is truly calm..."

"So when Moon God closed her eyes, it was just because she didn't want to see the bloody scene."

"A moment of silence for three seconds, hahaha."

"That card must be Moon God's signature item. It's confirmed to be the Infinite Card series this time. F*cking awesome!"

"It looks like it can change functions every game. Doesn't that mean she has infinite items? That's too buggy, right?"

"Otherwise why do you think it's called the Infinite series? This whole series is a giant bug."

"Although, I don't understand... If it was because of that bronze oil lamp that the Poisonous Insects didn't dare to approach Moon God, why did that Leather Jacket Man die so miserably?"

"Pay attention to the difference between the two. Moon God's lamp was not lit. I guess the bronze oil lamp itself can ward off these terrifying creatures, just like that pitch-black, baby-like creature from before. But the scent emitted after the lamp oil is lit attracts those Poisonous Insects, snakes, and ants. That's why the two people had completely different fates."

"No wonder, I was wondering why Moon God blew out the oil lamp at the time. After all, once the oil lamp is blown out, the whole passage is pitch black and you can't see anything."

"But how did Moon God know there would be a swarm attack?"

"I want to ask that too. It's obvious Moon God knew about this long ago. Sigh, even though I've been watching the stream the whole time, the world Moon God sees seems different from mine..."

"We are different~ Everyone has different..."

"Go to the next room to sing karaoke!"

"Let's check the forum after the stream ends. There are many analysis experts there, someone will always be able to figure out Moon God's thoughts. Every time I finish reading the forum, I feel like I've watched a new stream T.T..."

...

Luo Yuejian put away her card. When she first started the game, she had casually drawn a skill. The skill she drew for the Infinite Card this round was Corrosion.

Honestly, she had been terrified by this thing in the previous few games, so after drawing the skill this time, Luo Yuejian hadn't taken it out once. The effect was quite good; anyway, up until now, the Infinite Card hadn't really affected her gaming experience this round. This solidified her resolve.

After using Corrosion to dissolve the chewing gum under her feet, Luo Yuejian put the card away, deciding to continue with her philosophy for this round: never take out the Infinite Card and give it a chance to mess things up.

Just now, when she almost fell, her hand touched a stone brick on the wall, and the brick was clearly pressed in a bit.

Luo Yuejian knew clearly that she must have triggered some mechanism, but she scanned the area and didn't see the shadow of any mechanism.

She couldn't tell if she was relieved or uneasy. Luo Yuejian had just suffered a blow, and now she just wanted no more weird tricks in front of her; she couldn't handle any more stimulation.

Various kinds of pitch-black Poisonous Insects were still surging out from all over the tunnel like a tide, squeezing and pushing against each other, forming an impenetrable black torrent.

Luo Yuejian was not afraid of bugs, so she didn't feel anything while walking in the swarm, and she walked along the direction the Poisonous Insects were moving with an expressionless face.

Standing in the midst of this swarm, Luo Yuejian seemed to be in another world. Around her body, there was an absolute vacuum; not a single Poisonous Insect could approach her. It was as if an invisible barrier was wrapped around her, isolating all those terrifying Poisonous Insects.

Although the swarm was so tumultuous, Luo Yuejian was not swept along by it. On the contrary, she seemed to have carved out her own path in this black torrent, walking forward steadily, maintaining a certain distance from those Poisonous Insects.

These Poisonous Insects must have their own way of sensing; when they crawled in the corridor, they didn't experience the kind of disorientation humans would encounter, and they crawled out along the passage without any hesitation.

Luo Yuejian hadn't expected that her way of finally leaving this strange and complex passage would be by following the swarm.

At the end of the corridor was a relatively open Stone Room with a circular stone pool in the middle. The pool might have once held water, but it was now dried up, with some sediment at the bottom.

And right in the center of the pool stood that Man in the Suit. He looked extremely disheveled, his hair messy, his clothes torn in several places, and stained with mottled blood, a far cry from his previous suave appearance.

Most importantly, the rose on his chest was gone.

Obviously, during the previous swarm, he had been forced to use that item.

For some reason, the swarming Poisonous Insects did not approach this pool. Instead, after leaving the corridor, they crawled away through various cracks in the Stone Room, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Seeing Luo Yuejian walk over so nonchalantly, and that the bugs around her seemed not to see her at all, with absolutely no intention of attacking, Man in the Suit was stunned. He widened his eyes and asked in disbelief: "How did you do that? Why don't those bugs attack you?"

Luo Yuejian walked onto the pool and, without saying a word, threw the bronze oil lamp to him.

Man in the Suit stared at the bronze oil lamp for a long time, and finally realized, "I see... You..." His gaze was somewhat complex, "You discovered there was something wrong with this lamp from the very beginning?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Yuejian almost rolled her eyes to the heavens. If she had discovered this lamp was this awesome earlier, would she have been scammed so miserably?

She wondered internally what kind of misunderstanding Man in the Suit had about her. As a newbie, how could she have discovered there was something wrong with this oil lamp?

Luo Yuejian felt choked with annoyance; she really didn't want to deal with Man in the Suit.

Her indifferent attitude was obviously taken as confirmation in the eyes of Man in the Suit. Man in the Suit felt complicated emotions; for the first time, he clearly realized that the White-haired Girl before him seemed far beyond his comparison.

When he hadn't even noticed the bronze oil lamp, the White-haired Girl had already insightfully grasped the unique nature of this lamp, and might have even mastered how to use it.

Such insight was truly terrifying.

He suddenly began to regret the plans he had made at the beginning; being an opponent to such a terrifying person was simply asking for trouble...
