After apologizing, Li Xi quickly waved his hand and bid farewell, without mentioning any specific plans.
Duan Zhen wanted to keep him, but ultimately let him leave.
For Li Xi, who had his memories sealed, the only intersection between them now was Dan Zuo. Every time Duan Zhen thought about this, he felt a sourness in his heart, but he managed to suppress any jealousy that shouldn’t have arisen with his strong willpower, without letting anyone notice anything unusual.
“Is Li Xi late?” Xia Qirong came in and looked around, asking in confusion.
“He won’t participate in the next world,” Duan Zhen said. “The impact from the previous world was significant for him. He’s resting in his room and won’t be coming for the next few days.”
This explanation seemed reasonable, and the others nodded, seemingly without suspicion.
During the debriefing process, Xia Qirong kept making realization noises as if he were sleepwalking through the whole world, not understanding anything.
“It’s quite normal. I’ve been running around all the time, without any information. How could I possibly know that the world was a huge illusion?” he defended himself.
“I’ve mentioned it many times before,” Dan Zuo pushed his glasses up and calmly pointed out, “you just don’t have the brain to connect the clues.”
“Don’t go for personal attacks,” Xia Qirong hissed, “Just because you’re a genius doesn’t mean you can mock others.”
Dan Zuo calmly averted his gaze, showing no intention of arguing with him.
“The next world is the twins’ world,” Duan Zhen said. “You guys go back and collect information on the twins’ world. Dan Zuo, you stay. I need to talk to you about something.”
Dan Zuo didn’t seem surprised. When the others left, he stood still. “Is it about Li Xi?”
“You know?” Duan Zhen asked.
“Li Xi is Senafel. I guessed it.” Dan Zuo nodded. “Of all the people or monsters I’ve encountered, only when I’m close to Li Xi does the instrument’s energy fluctuate.”
Duan Zhen nodded, not saying much on this matter, but said, “Expel the main system from the game, and everyone can end this nightmare.”
“I can destroy the central system, but I can’t directly expel it,” Dan Zuo frowned. “The main system doesn’t appear often, and I can’t locate its position.”
“No matter how advanced the technology, it must have a carrier,” Duan Zhen said. “Can you find its carrier from the information?”
“There’s too little information,” Dan Zuo shook his head. “Unless it conducts a comprehensive broadcast, perhaps we can discover its weakness.”
“There will be opportunities,” Duan Zhen nodded. “There’s no need to rush.”
Although they said so, they both knew that delaying even a day might lead to more sacrifices.
After a moment of silence, Dan Zuo suddenly asked, “What are you going to do?”
“What?” Duan Zhen was taken aback.
“Li Xi is Senafel. What are you going to do?” Dan Zuo repeated his question.
Duan Zhen understood, but only furrowed his brow slightly. “After the game ends, the two worlds will no longer have contact. That’s the best outcome.”
Dan Zuo glanced down at the instrument in his hand and pondered for a moment. “Many people have gained strange powers from the game. Even if the game ends, the chaos in the world will continue.”
“That’s the main system’s doing,” Duan Zhen frowned. “The abilities it sells are not limited to Li Xi’s world.”
Pausing for two seconds, he realized that Dan Zuo probably wasn’t referring to this matter. He cleared his throat. “The chaos in the world can only be calmed down after we return, and it also depends on the intentions of various countries.”
They needed to worry not only about ordinary people gaining powers but also about certain countries becoming restless because of this miraculous power.
“Although Li Xi isn’t interested in us, not all demon lords have the same attitude,” Dan Zuo hinted. “I’ve heard that many people have encountered twins in intermediate dungeons, and some have even encountered Clemens.”
“Of course, their goal isn’t to pursue a particular person,” he added, “The demon twins like to make contracts with people, and Clemens’ whereabouts are erratic. Most of the people who have seen him are said to have perished in the dungeons.”
“If, as expected, I’ve met Clemens.” Duan Zhen’s expression shifted slightly. “With his Western features of blond hair and red eyes, his attack methods are quite peculiar. Even when hiding in the shadows, I couldn’t detect his presence.”
“…And, I feel he seems to be wary of my blood,” Duan Zhen thought for a moment, then added.
At that time, when Clemens’ attack grazed his face and blood flowed out, he clearly felt the other party’s expression darken, then he immediately turned and left.
At that time, he thought it was because the attack failed, but now he thinks there might be another reason.
Dan Zuo moved his lips, as if calculating something quickly, then his expression turned strange. “You have a pure Yang constitution1A pure yang constitution refers to a body type in traditional Chinese medicine that tends to be more active, energetic, and warm.”
Duan Zhen shrugged.
Before, because his strength was greater than ordinary people, he used to think of himself as some kind of supreme martial artist, but there was no need to bring up that bit of dark history. It’s just that he didn’t expect that people with a pure Yang constitution could really repel vampires with their blood.
“Remember this weakness, we can experiment with it later,” he said.
“Where’s Li Xi?” Dan Zuo suddenly asked.
“He left earlier,” Duan Zhen said, suddenly realizing something, and looked down at the instrument in Dan Zuo’s hand.
The energy fluctuations on it were indeed fluctuating greatly.
“Li Xi?” Duan Zhen looked around, but didn’t perceive any presence.
He realized that something was wrong, turned his head to signal to Dan Zuo, and the two stood back to back. Duan Zhen’s hand reached for the dagger at his waist.
The lights in the room began to flicker, emitting a crackling sound of electricity, and even faint laughter of children could be heard.
It was unheard of for ghosts to haunt resting places, Duan Zhen’s muscles tensed, but his tone remained calm and steady. “The twins, Moduna and Hest.”
“Ah, figured out.” A clear teenage voice came, filled with regret. “Ah, so boring, thought we could at least scare you.”
Immediately after, two figures appeared in front of Duan Zhen.
They were two identical teenagers, with blond hair and blue eyes, looking about sixteen. One of them grinned and looked him over. “You’re Duan Zhen? Nice to meet you, I’m Hest.”
His hand rested on the shoulder of the boy beside him, tilting his head and smiling innocently. “Do you have any wishes you want to fulfill? It can be done with just a small price.”
“None.” Duan Zhen bluntly threw out two words, then asked, “Do you two have any business here?”
“Nothing much, we just came to see you,” Hest blinked his eyes. “Both my brother and I are curious about what kind of person can refuse the adorable Senafel.”
Author’s note:
Hest: Nothing’s up, just heard that Senafel failed to chase someone, so we came to watch the show.
Because living too long is too boring, I’m very interested in watching good shows.
My beloved brats are back! Also, it was cute how he was jealous that Li Xi now only cares about Dan Zuo lol lol
(and we got dark history about him!! that’s cute that he’s embarrassed about his past behavio
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
