Kaidan Game Train: Abide Rule or Die!

Chapter 2432: Chaos

Under strong coercion, Xu Huo finally gave in, sitting dejectedly at the root of the tree, covering his face with both hands.The Yin Yang Master no longer looked at him but turned to ask Bubble Bean if there was any sign of a human figure.

Bubble Bean pondered for a moment before asking him details about "Deng Guang."

The Yin Yang Master indeed heard Deng Guang’s shout, "I told you earlier, I unknowingly took it seriously when I heard the voice, completely forgetting about my friend. My first reaction was to walk over. But once you called me, I snapped out of it. It’s not hard to guard against this either."

"It’s not about whether it’s easy to guard against or not; it’s about us being targeted." Bubble Bean stared at him tightly, "Did you really hear the shout?"

The Yin Yang Master, who was already a bit impatient from the repeated questioning, became even more annoyed upon hearing this, "You don’t trust me? Think I’m deceiving you?"

Bubble Bean’s expression was capricious and eventually said nothing.

Disappointed, the Yin Yang Master punched the tree beside him hard, "Forget it if you don’t believe me. Anyway, I didn’t lie!"

"It’s not necessarily that he lied." Xu Huo suddenly interjected, "It might be your friend intentionally."

The two turned to look at him, only to see him say mockingly, "Deng Guang, it should be the person who was shouting outside yesterday, right? I know he’s hiding in the grove without showing up, probably addicted to impersonating the ’Hidden Friend’, targeting not only me, a non-dungeon player, but also his own companions."

This is indeed a possibility. Deng Guang did leave on his own, and he has not replied to them since. Even if the communicator malfunctioned due to magnetic interference, it should have worked beneath the dimension. There’s no reason for complete silence, even though one time there was a instance casualty, it doesn’t necessarily mean that the missing one was him!

"Could it be he’s found out that this guy is not a dungeon player!" The Yin Yang Master slightly opened his eyes, "Could he be treating us as a mission?"

The situation was too strange, and Bubble Bean couldn’t be sure, "If it was really him, we should have been able to spot his trail just now. Didn’t you only hear the voice?"

"Hard to say," the Yin Yang Master rubbed the sword in his hand instinctively, "What if he is a Super Evolver? This chaotic place would be perfect for killing."

"Stop guessing. Without seeing the person or the corpse, it doesn’t mean anything." Bubble Bean was indifferent to Deng Guang’s fate, "What he said about playing a role, who knows if it’s true or not..."

The Yin Yang Master then looked at Xu Huo, "Did you really not hear someone call me just now?"

"Did someone really call you?" Xu Huo answered with another question.

The two were at loggerheads, the Yin Yang Master felt murderous thoughts but did not dare to act, only he knew if someone really called his name.

Because they had been teleported once, they were unsure of their position now. Bubble Bean could only estimate roughly, "The teleportation went against the direction we came from, ten thousand meters away, we shouldn’t be far from the previous village. Let’s go back and check."

After walking for half an hour with no sign of the previous village, the three realized they were lost again.

"We walked for two days before without encountering a shadow, and now we’re here again?" The Yin Yang Master’s mind was agitated, "If I run into that figure again, I will certainly kill him!"

However, as he finished speaking, his gaze suddenly fixed on his side, then retreated two steps, "There’s someone!"

In the next second, Bubble Bean’s prop flew out, powerful air currents directly parted the fog around them, revealing a large forest, everything visible except the places blocked by trees.

No one.

"Impossible!" The Yin Yang Master said, "I just saw a figure run past me with my own eyes!"

"Within a few meters, even if I can’t see it, I wouldn’t be completely unaware." Bubble Bean looked at him, "Use the noise-canceling earmuffs and cover your eyes."

Only he heard and saw it, the Yin Yang Master realized he was the only one targeted, so he cooperated by blocking his hearing and sight, being led by Bubble Bean.

The three-person team, with Xu Huo walking at the front, Bubble Bean and the Yin Yang Master side by side.

This method seemed to really work. For a long time afterward, the Yin Yang Master encountered no problems, at least none of them were startled by seeing figures or hearing voices again.

But soon, the remaining number of players in the instance was updated twice consecutively, finally settling at 35 people.

Two more people were gone.

Whether Deng Guang made a mystery and left or died remained unknown, the number of instance players continued to decline, "Hidden Friend" only needed one friend each day, even if the real "Hidden Friend" was killing, the chances of consecutive killings were minimal; it should be the players consuming each other.

"Truly madman." Bubble Bean muttered to himself.

In his view, rashly acting when the instance situation was unclear was the most foolish move, killing a few people is not difficult, but the fear is leaving no retreat!

Just as he was despising others, a voice suddenly wormed into his ear.

He abruptly halted, immediately looking in the direction the voice came from, the fog too thick to see anything, but judging from the volume, it was no more than fifty meters away from him.

What was it?

Several props flew from his hand, first, a strong wind blowing away the surrounding fog, then several blocked barriers imprisoning the area, followed by Flying Blade swiftly shuttling through the grove.

Simultaneously, he used some props and characteristics specifically targeting people, continuously muttering things like "arrest according to law," "Hide and Seek countdown," "your humanity is radiant."

There was no blood on the returning props, his characteristics didn’t activate, the grove’s trees were chopped down, ultimately only slowly falling and covered again by rapidly returning fog.

No one!

Bubble Bean swiftly turned his gaze to lock on the Yin Yang Master and Xu Huo, suspecting and scrutinizing them. The Yin Yang Master had already removed the blindfold and earmuffs, about to ask what was happening, when he saw him charging at them, hurriedly employing a defense prop, but they only brushed past each other, Bubble Bean’s real target was Xu Huo in front of him!

Xu Huo had narrowed the coverage of Spiritual World, using a small range intensification of Mental Interference learned from the Goddess, coupled with chaotic magnetic fields, successfully interfering with the Yin Yang Master twice, both times neither of them detected anything wrong, now as Bubble Bean moved against him, probably employing a process of elimination.

Several rings of light surrounded him, not only blocking Bubble Bean’s attack but also rebounding it. He angrily retreated, as he bitterly said, "Don’t think only you can have good props!"

The Yin Yang Master’s response was quick too, already blocking another direction in advance, and asked, "Is it this kid who did the trick?!"
