Thank you ChrysAmans for the support—Bonus Chapter (3/10)

Editors: Humu & Kitty

After Clown joined the team, they followed the new team to escape in a simple secret chamber, and thereafter, the main highlight came. Yes, the team battle arrived as scheduled.

Although Luo Jian had made full preparations, when he found himself in the familiar secret chamber, he still sucked in a cold breath, and inwardly, he could feel mixed emotions interchanging inside him.

The secret chamber tasked him to win in a secret chamber team battle. This was a must.

In fact, even if the secret chamber did not put forth such a request, Luo Jian would have to win. Luo Jian did not care what the consequence of it would be. One should know that Luo Jian had been preparing for the coming final trial for too long. When things came to a head, if he had to give up because of his weak feelings, Luo Jian would never forgive himself.

Yes, Luo Jian was standing in the secret chamber he had once experienced—Burial Grounds.

Luo Jian lit up his netherfire lamp and found his strength had improved rapidly in this period. Therefore, the lamp could be suspended directly and float around Luo Jian’s side. In passing, something to note was that his umbrella could also be suspended from his hand. All weapons that he copied would be able to do this.

“Truly disgusting.” Luo Jian sighed helplessly. For him, everything that he had experienced in the secret chamber seemed to have happened a long time ago. It seemed far away and unfamiliar, but he could still remember some details occasionally, but he had forgotten much more of these details.

However, the change in his side made him feel agonized. He once thought he could be a just man, but in the end, he was still someone who killed indiscriminately. There was an old saying that people used to say...... There were always some people who, when grown up, couldn’t help but become what they hated most when they were young.

History was constantly stunningly similar.

Luo Jian walked alone in the narrow tunnel in silence. The burial grounds were filled with many ghosts that ordinary people could not see. Their existence made the netherfire lamp around Luo Jian burn vigorously, and it also scared away many demons and ghosts hiding in the dark, waiting for opportunities to strike. Therefore, Luo Jian’s journey was unimpeded.

“Oh right, I recalled something.” Luo Jian touched his chin. He thought of the time when he first entered this secret chamber, en...... He did something jarring with the stalker, and after that he was chased by the enemies and almost died in the narrow and hard-to-move-in tunnel.

“The one who chased me seems to be Hong...... En, is this retribution? He retaliated against me for chasing him in the secret chambers every day, but that’s not true. After all, he was the one who chased me first...... No, I went back to the past to kill him first...... No....... Damn!”

Luo Jian was surprised to find that he was stuck in a loop. This problem was as boring as the problem of whether the chicken and egg came first. Instead of thinking about this problem, Luo Jian thought it was better to find Clown first and stop Clown from killing his past self.

“Oh my, I think that the mysterious man who saved my life at that time was really myself...”

At this moment, Luo Jian suddenly felt this was a little terrifying, and all fates began to coincide. Fate was running right in front of him with dignity, and he was unable to change it. He suddenly felt that this might be a power that even the secret chamber’s will could not master. The person with such power should be the real ‘God.’

Without further deliberating about these extremely terrifying issues, Luo Jian boldly began to search for where Clown was. He was afraid that he was the last member to enter the secret chamber. It seemed that every time the team battle began, the order of admission of both teams was disordered. Some people would come early, and others would come late.

But most of the time, it was a rule that the weak would arrive first and the powerful would arrive last.

The secret chamber’s ‘affinity to players’ was embodied here, giving the weak the right to be familiar with the battlefield first.

So Luo Jian was the last one to arrive.

In passing, something to note was that the stalkers and other NPCs only started to enter the chamber after the members of both teams had completely entered. Generally, according to the lineup of both sides, if there was an oracle in the team, the stalkers’ hatred would be generally attracted to that team. If there were no oracles, the stalkers’ hatred would be pushed on the strongest person in both teams.

However, Luo Jian did not have to worry about his hatred value for the time being. After all, the two that would attract the most hatred would be in his previous team. But now, he really felt that his previous team lineup really did not know the immensity of heavens and earths.

T/N: the immensity of heavens and earths: have an exaggerated opinion of one’s abilities

Luo Jian locked onto Clown’s position and began to look for the best and fastest route to get to Clown’s side in the labyrinth in this tomb. In fact, it was not impossible to use teleportation. However, in this damned place, every road was too narrow, and there were mechanisms that would change the route constantly. If he was unable to control it well, he might be teleported to some unknown place where it was hard for him to move.

Xing Yan was the most skillful player Luo Jian had seen in using his spatial abilities. However, Luo Jian himself, because he could use too many weapons and had a variety of fighting methods, had no way to be well-trained in using spatial abilities. It was good enough for him to be able to teleport within a certain range. If the distance was too far away, it would be easy for him to make mistakes on the transmission position.

And as for Luo Jian who had the ability to leap through space-time as a GM, it must not be used when he was involved in a battle in the secret chamber.

Because Luo Jian was caught up with this issue, he arrived finally, a little late. When he found Clown at the narrow, vertical tunnel, Clown had stabbed his scalpel into his forehead, and his former self was in a crisis, having his life suspended on a thin line.

Luo Jian’s skill in medical treatment was no worse than Clown’s. After spending a long time with Clown, Luo Jian had learned a great medical skillset. In a very short period of time, after he stopped the bleeding, surgically stitching his wounds, and bandaged it, he finally saved his former self’s life.

“Whelp, this boy almost killed me. I played dumb too much. I’ve belittled this fool.” Clown squatted at one side, swearing. Luo Jian looked at Clown expressionlessly. “Recently, you are not in a good mental state. I’m afraid you’ve been too nervous. Therefore, you committed such a low-level mistake.”

Clown sat on the ground in embarrassment. He had already entered ‘a state of death,’ and the expression on his face was rather stiff.

“I can’t help it. Actually, you can’t blame me. I don’t know why but I went too soft on this fellow. Ah, I think he looks like you...... He gave me a strange feeling that was very similar to you but quite different, and he feels more vulnerable than you, so I did not dare to use too much force.”

“Similar to me?” Luo Jian lowered his head at the other him lying on the ground. He even felt strange. How long had he not seen this face so close? It felt like ages ago. He even thought that this person was another person, not himself.

But this feeling was truly horrifying.

Luo Jian took a deep breath and also sat down. He sat next to his other self. After staring at his face for a long time, he found that...... En, I used to look pretty good. No wonder the stalker would like me...... Uh......

Luo Jian knocked his head unconsciously and pulled his thoughts back.

“Well, why save him?” Clown found that Luo Jian’s expression looked like he was a little absorbed in looking at the enemy, and he could not help but be curious.

Luo Jian said, “Because he can’t die.”

Luo Jian paused momentarily and said, “Hong, if you have nothing to do, help me carry out a task. Search for the ‘god’s tomb vault’ nearby, drag out the ‘God,’ give him a good interrogation after torture, and ask him where the exit is.”

“I understand.” Clown jumped up and did not delay handling the matter. He left.

Seeing that Clown had run away, Luo Jian couldn’t help but lower his head as he looked at his past self. After hesitating for a moment, he still took his other self and decided to put him in a safe place. En...... it was better to put him close to his companions.

After Luo Jian had finished handling the other Luo Jian, he began to head towards the god’s tomb vault based on his memories. However, as soon as he went in, he saw that there were huge flower buds, one of which was two meters high. The ground was covered with vines and roots that looked like blood vessels.

Luo Jian swore that he did not do it on purpose. However, he did not know why, but when he was walking perfectly fine, a flower bud nearby suddenly opened its big mouth and swallowed him in.

Luo Jian: “......”

Sure enough, it was a cannibal with high acidity...... It seemed that the flower wanted to digest him. However, Luo Jian knew he was the kind of food that was difficult for it to digest. He was quite at ease...... However, his clothes had corroded.

Did he have to go out naked? It seems that I haven’t brought my carry-on secret chamber with me. Speaking of which, I seldom use that thing. After all, I’m an all-rounder: I can block and fight, gank, assist, and cure. In my carry-on secret chamber, I merely put some food, clothes, and so on. When I need to use it, I always use Clown’s......

t/n: gank: To kill much weaker players in an online video game in such a way that they cannot defend themselves. Common methods include attacking in much greater numbers or taking a well-equipped high-level character to assault players in a starting area. (Cr: wiki)

If he went out naked...... he would be very troubled!

Luo Jian twisted and turned in the bud as he felt more and more entangled. Then, he suddenly heard a huge explosion outside followed by a series of explosions. The roar rang in his ears. The distance seemed to be very close. The flower bud he was in was also affected. However, his ability to fight back was still good, but this flower bud...... he was afraid it was not a flower bud because it actually pitifully let out a short squeal, and Luo Jian felt it shaking violently as it circled one round on the ground.

He was afraid that it was suffering from indigestion.

Luo Jian felt that this thing seemed to want to vomit him out, but he was not willing to go out naked. What should he do if someone was outside? Although he could use the hypnosis skill of his red umbrella to make people forget...... it was still embarrassing!

Just then, Luo Jian seemed to hear the footsteps of someone coming.

Who was it?

However, Luo Jian soon got his answer. The man seemed to want to kill the monster who had swallowed him. Luo Jian felt that the other party had sent a sword flying over. The strength of the blade was quite strong. The sword penetrated the entire monster. Although he was still in the monster’s stomach, he was quite small now, and the other party’s sword had merely brushed past the top of his head.

Luo Jian uncomfortably swayed and finally decided to get out. To be swallowed by this sort of monster, such a matter really made him unhappy. What should I do if there is someone I know outside? Just the mere thought of what happens after makes me embarrassed!

However, when Luo Jian got out of the monster’s stomach and swept his gaze around, hey, it was his little Ah Lan.

Luo Jian was at ease, inexplicably at ease, and he naturally began to tidy up and clean the sticky liquid on his body. Ah Lan opposite him was surprised and kept his guard up. He stared at him, the look in his eyes complicated and curious. Luo Jian was not embarrassed and naturally straightened his chest. Then, after considering, he decided to use this sentence as an introductory remark: “I’m very happy to be able to see you again.”
