“Oh, hello everyone.” When Feng bujue walked into the meeting room, he looked very relaxed. No one could tell … Not long ago, he had participated in a strange bet related to a mysterious organization, and a well-known entrepreneur who often appeared in the newspapers had disappeared from the face of the earth.
“I saw that you didn’t come back, so I went online first.” RUO Yu, who was sitting at the conference table, said after seeing him.
“It’s a good thing you made it in time …” Miss an continued,”we were just discussing … If you were absent today, could we communicate with the game company through customer service … And let us compete with ‘no spectators’?”
“Hehe … Don’t worry.” Feng bujue replied with a smile,”even if I can’t make it home in time, I will find a device to connect to the game.”
“Speaking of which …” RUO Yu continued,”after lunch, you said that you were going out with Ouyang Yu to do something, and then you only showed up now …” She paused and gave brother Jue a meaningful look.”You two … Did you really go to zombie blade to extort money?”
The people in the meeting room were all her own people, so RUO Yu was not afraid to speak her mind. When Xiao Tan, Xiao Ling, and miss an heard the word ‘blackmail’, they were only briefly surprised. Very soon … They accepted this setting and sincerely believed that it was not surprising that Feng bujue would do something like that.
“No, I didn ‘t,” “We only went to zombie blade’s office to talk to their Chairman,” Feng bujue explained.
“The result …” RUO Yu gestured for brother Jue to continue.
“I don’t think their company will have the energy to’ take care of me ‘for a long time.” Feng bujue replied with a vague answer.
“Brother Jue …” Xiao Tan knew brother Jue well. He narrowed his eyes and said,”that … You guys didn’t kill him or drive him crazy, did you?”
“Haha …” Feng bujue chuckled.”That’s …” He shrugged and moved his eyes away.”Even if he really dies or goes crazy in the near future … It has nothing to do with me.”
“In other words …” RUO Yu continued,”…There’s an indirect relationship?”
“Ha …” Brother Jue smiled, but he still did not reveal any concrete information.”I think … In a few days, there will be news about what happened today. After all, I can’t explain it in such a short time, so you guys should go and see for yourselves.” After saying that, he changed the topic.”Alright, hurry up and join the team. There are only two minutes (real time) left before you’re ready to join the team.”
…………
At the same time, at zombie blade studio.
“Let me sort out my thoughts …” In the general manager’s office, Mr. Liu, the General Manager of corpse knife, was talking to Captain Wu of the security Department across the table.”At that time, the chairman suddenly called your number and asked you to gather all the security guards in three minutes … Run to the top floor to help him search the entire floor and guard the door of his office to prevent anyone from entering.” He paused for a second.”And about ten minutes later, a lawyer with the surname Ouyang and … The novelist named ‘Feng bujue’ walked out of the chairman’s office with a suitcase and a tablet.”
“Yes, I am.” Captain Wu nodded.
“And you just let them go?” Manager Liu asked.
“Uh … It was the chairman who ordered us to let them go.” Captain Wu replied.
“What was the order?” Manager Liu frowned and asked.
“He … Gave me a call again.” Captain Wu replied, and half a second later, he added,”when the two of them walked out of the chairman’s office.”
“Oh?” Manager Liu looked suspicious and mumbled,”then why didn’t he come out of the director’s office to tell you personally? It’s only a few steps away …”
“I don’t know …” Captain Wu shook his head.
“Okay …” Manager Liu nodded,”you can continue …”
Captain Wu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and continued,””After lawyer Ouyang and the novelist with the surname Feng left the top floor, the chairman immediately called me and told me to withdraw and return to my post.” As he recalled, he said,”after that … About ten minutes later, I saw through the surveillance camera that the chairman walked out of his office with a man in a Tang suit and into the elevator.”
“Who’s that?” Manager Liu interrupted and asked.
“Uh … I don’t know.” Captain Wu replied awkwardly,”the three people who came out of the director’s office tonight … Other than lawyer Ouyang who came with an appointment and the pass we gave him, the other two have no record of entering the building …”
“Then it’s your negligence?” Manager Liu continued in a questioning tone.
“Um … I …” Captain Wu couldn’t think of an excuse, so he could only reply,”I’ve already sent someone to check the surveillance video. Maybe we can find out how they do it …”
“Okay, there’s no need for that …” Manager Liu interrupted.”At this point, it’s meaningless to do that …” He frowned deeply and pursed his lips.”If something really happened to the chairman this time … It’ll alarm the police sooner or later. By then, the police will naturally check the video. You just have to cooperate with them.”
“Yes … Yes …” Captain Wu said.
“So, what’s next?” Manager Liu continued,”you just watched the chairman being taken away by the man in the Tang suit?”
“Uh … He …” Captain Wu stammered,”the chairman … He didn’t seem to have been taken away.”
“Could it be that he followed that person on his own?” manager Liu continued.
“Yeah,” Captain Wu nodded.”We saw from the surveillance camera that the chairman was wearing a pair of sunglasses that covered most of his face. He was holding the man’s shoulder with one hand and following behind him … The two of them took the elevator down to the lobby on the first floor and walked out of the building.” He pouted helplessly.”The security guards in the lobby also recognize the chairman. Because he seemed to be following someone willingly, no one came forward to stop him.”
“Well …” Manager Liu fell into deep thought. After a moment, he said,”in short … We’ll put this matter on hold for now.” “After all, the chairman is an adult. Since he wasn’t forced to leave, there might be some hidden reason … Let’s not jump to conclusions or be anxious. Maybe he’ll come to the company tomorrow as usual …” He looked at Captain Wu and gave him a look.”I … Will try to contact the Chairman again. If I really can’t contact him, I’ll call his home later and explain the situation roughly. Then, how to deal with it … I’ll let them decide.” When he said this, he seemed to have sorted out his thoughts. In the end, he sighed in relief.”Even if we really want to call the police, it’s more appropriate to let the Chairman’s family do it … Don’t you think so?”
“Yes, yes, yes …” Captain Wu nodded.”Manager Liu is right …”
To Captain Wu, it was great to have someone with a clear mind to do the math, shirk responsibility, and make a decision at a time like this.
“Okay …” Manager Liu picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip.”You should go back to work. I have a lot of things to do tonight.”
“Okay, manager Liu, I’ll go now.” Captain Wu responded and quickly walked out of the general manager’s office.
After Captain Wu closed the door, manager Liu’s expression suddenly darkened. A few seconds later, he took out a very old phone from his pocket and pressed the fast-stream button.
“How are you? That’s right … It’s me. ” Manager Liu said in a deep voice,”yes … I’ve arranged everything. We can at least fight for more than ten hours … Okay … Understood … Everything will be done according to your wishes, Mr. Kujyo …” He paused.”By the way … About tonight’s game … I’ve changed team one’s medicine. The effect will be gone after the game starts. Is that okay?”
…………

“Reward for winning the scenario: advance to the fourth round of the semi-finals.
“The script introduction will be played soon. The game will begin immediately after the introduction.”
After a series of familiar system prompts, the introductory cinematic began to play.
[A hundred-year-old ancient town, a sudden arrival of evil.]
[Thousand-year-old treasure, Blood Shadows are everywhere.]
This time, the opening remarks were concise and went straight to the point. However, the cinematic showed a very harmonious scene …
[Lotus Moon town is famous for its beautiful scenery; There’s an ancient temple on Zhenxi mountain called Liuhe temple. It’s a thousand-year-old temple.]
Following the narration, a small Jiangnan town by a mountain and a River came into the players ‘view.
[More than a hundred years ago, a group of refugees fled here from afar. The monks in Meng temple gave them rice porridge and saved their lives. After that, the refugees reclaimed farmland at the foot of the Liuhe Temple Mountain, widened the river Canal, and built the town.
[After a hundred years, Lotus Moon town has become famous as the Holy Land of Buddhism and the land of fish and rice.]
Surprisingly, in the 100th year after the Lotus Moon town was built, a rumor about the Liuhe temple spread like wildfire …]
The narration changed the topic and the CG scene also “changed”
[Legend has it that the temple worships a Buddhist secret treasure …]
The camera quickly moved and flew to the sky above the Liuhe temple from the bird’s eye view.
[There are nine Doors and nine pivot points in the temple … A total of 81 restrictions seal the secret treasure. The method to remove the restriction was passed down by the abbotship by word of mouth and kept strictly confidential.]
As he spoke, the camera was locked on a Pagoda in the temple.
[One year, a group of well-known bandits set their eyes on this secret treasure and sneaked into the temple one night …]
The voice-over ended there, but the cinematics weren’t done yet …
The camera turned black … In the next second, pale and ferocious faces, pairs of empty dead eyes, and bloody bodies flashed through the screen at high speed. The players could also hear countless mournful wails and crazy laughter.
Just as the horrifying sound and picture interweaved … The script began.
The moment Feng bujue regained his mobility, he could clearly feel the chill in his spine.
It was a bone-chilling cold, a cold that came from the inside out … Even though the surrounding temperature was not very low, he was in a state where he could breathe out white mist.
“The beautiful village of fish and rice has become like this?” brother Jue scanned his surroundings immediately. He saw broken buildings, broken stone bridges, muddy paths, withered plants … Of course, the most noteworthy thing was the blood of Taowu.
Whether it was the walls, the stone roads, the mud, the dead tree trunks, or the rocks on the side of the road … Blood could be found everywhere.
The blood was dark red in color and was basically irregular in shape. A few of them were in the shape of “handprints” In addition to the strong smell of blood, they also gave off a pungent stench.
[Main mission triggered]
[Killed four members of corpse knife First Division.]
The system notification quickly rang out, announcing the official start of the match. However, when brother Jue looked around, there was not a single person around.
It seemed like … This scenario had scattered the players in different parts of the town from the start, and … This was most likely a ghost town.
“Hmm … Let me take a look first …” Feng bujue mumbled.
As he said that, he squatted down to wipe the blood off the ground. Then, he brought it up to his eyes and nose to take a closer look. Just as the audience thought that brother Jue was going to put his finger in his mouth to lick it, he shook his hand and stood up again.
“Then …” Brother Jue mumbled,”what is going on?” he looked around again.”A few hundred people with coagulopathy are here for a fight?” His eyes changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice,”or … Am I already in some strange ‘enchantment’…” Two seconds later, he tilted his head noncommittally and returned to his frivolous look.”If it’s the latter … Then I have to be careful in this environment where my blood can’t coagulate … A few small wounds may be fatal …”
Tu tu tu tu tu
Just as brother Jue said that, suddenly … There was a burst of gunfire behind him. (To be continued.)
