Returning from the abyss

Chapter 796 The Third Stage Interwoven Bones
Lu Ning heard a crack, not an actual hearing, but a change caused by a familiar turmoil.She thought about it carefully, as if she felt it occasionally when she was helping others after she went to Zhiyu Town some time ago.

She took out her phone and checked the task content in the crow app.

Sure enough, in the APP, the third stage was unveiled, and she didn't do it herself. What about Meng Juan and Tang Ling?Who opened the prelude to the new stage?
[Third Stage · Interwoven Bones

3-1 Capture the list of type A virus.

3-2 Establish a stable stronghold with no less than 20 people.

3-3 Advance the stage to the fourth act. 】

Obviously everything is not settled yet!

Meng Juan in the other room also showed a little surprised expression.He got up and went to Tang Ling's door, and knocked on Tang Ling's door.Soon, Tang Ling opened the door and looked at Meng Juan sleepily: "Brother Meng, what's wrong?"

"The third stage has begun." Meng Juan said, "We have to make some preparations, Tang Ling, I have a bad feeling, this scene seems not as simple as we thought."

"what?"

"Neither you nor I took the initiative to trigger the next stage. I don't think the girl who lives in Dong-Huiyue has such a good mood. As for the gentleman who is not interested in coming here at all, it is too late to live a stable life, so how can he take the initiative to break it? "

"Don't tell me... we don't need to grasp this?"

"When the time comes, the stage will move forward naturally. This is force majeure, and we have no way to stop it. Therefore, the future of this world is worse than we think."

"Then Brother Meng, you..."

"Tang Ling, I need to teach you something, the ability to use your abilities and adapt to various survival situations. This is a chaotic scene, and the future of the chaotic scene will never be known." Meng Juan whispered, "It's not good—— Sure enough, there is no such thing as a free lunch in the distribution center, the trap begins when we choose an ability."

As the dinner time approached, Lu Ning also came downstairs, waiting for the daily dinner time.But after going downstairs today, she saw that the living room was being rearranged, and some decorations had been hung above the living room.All the servants except chef Wei Haonan are dressed here.Seeing Lu Ning coming down, Qu Langyue walked over with a smile and said, "Miss Lu Ning, the living room is being decorated for a dance, maybe it's not so convenient to rest here, you can use the side hall next to it or the rooms on the third floor , we won't take long, and of course dinner won't be delayed."

"Even if someone is dead, you still want to hold a dance?" Lu Ning asked.

"This host's invitation is for this purpose. The dance must be held, unless we are all gone."

Lu Ning thought for a while, and then asked: "I want to know... If your master asks you to cooperate in killing people, will you obey the master's order, or will you reject this request in accordance with the law or morality?"

Qu Langyue was stunned for a moment: "We will try our best to stop the master. We are servants, not accomplices."

Hope she's telling the truth.

Lu Ning walked to the kitchen.Wei Haonan is still busy with dinner. Judging from the dishes being prepared, this time it is a Chinese meal. Wei Haonan can cook any dish from the East or the West. As far as the chef is concerned, he has already been seen by Lu Ning The best chef ever.And every time Lu Ning comes to the kitchen, she can get puddings, pastries and other small snacks from the refrigerator of this dedicated chef, and even handmade ice cream.

"Miss Lu Ning! Take a look at today's dishes, I guarantee that each of you will have a good time! After that happened, I think you all need delicious food to relieve your mood!" Wei Haonan said loudly when he saw Lu Ning coming in .

“Lunch is good.”

Lunch is not like dinner. Generally, everyone will not come together, but whoever comes will deliver the food. Wei Haonan usually prepares three different combinations for guests to choose from.

"But the lunch is not rich enough." Wei Haonan said with a smile, "I'm just worried, after seeing such a scene, whether you still have the appetite to enjoy the dishes."

"This is not something you need to worry about, at least my appetite is normal." Lu Ning said.

"That's good!"

The chef was still full of energy. Lu Ning remembered that he was also outside the door, but he didn't seem to be affected by the murder scene at all.Finally she took some snacks and walked back to her room.

The melodious sound of the violin floated faintly from the room, and the violin girl was probably immersed in her favorite music again.Today, Lu Ning felt that her skills seemed to have improved a lot, and her voice became more melodious and pleasant, with a lingering feeling in it.

After returning to her room, Lu Ning called out the map of mountains and rivers and checked the location of everyone.Marked by ink dots, except for Mr. Zhou who went to the reception room to read the newspaper, everyone stayed in their room and did not move around.The servants were still six decorating the hall and one busy in the kitchen.The number of ink dots is correct.

It's a pity that only people she has contacted can be marked on the map. If a murderer she has never seen sneaks into the Hongmei Pavilion, it will not appear on the map.Of course, Lu Ning judged in her heart that the murderer should still be in the Hongmei Pavilion, and he was among the guests.

Lu Ning sat at the table and began to think about the next matters.The opening of the third stage means that Zhao Xihua and Zhao Chenshuang will definitely enter the doomsday scenario, and the mission also confirms this point from the side. Whether it is the type A virus catalog or the establishment of a stronghold, it is not something that needs to be done in a normal society.

She had hinted at her father and a few friends in the dormitory before, although Zhao Xihua said that her doomsday was a doomsday similar to infection, but it is still unknown what the scene of the distribution center will be distorted through fusion.The development of the doomsday world may not necessarily follow the script of Zhao Xihua's "previous life". The mere existence of superpowers is enough to change many possibilities.

It took a lot of time to think about the plan. The scene of Tier [-] has expanded to the whole world. Even if Lu Ning doesn’t think about people outside his network, all the arrangements are much more complicated. Before Tier [-], there was never such a wide room for development. However, Lu Ning What I am not very good at is thinking about such a big situation.

It wasn't until Ye Yunmei knocked on the door to tell Lu Ning that dinner was ready that she considered several possible strategies.

The dinner guests filed in, and the restaurant was still the same as before, but the number of people was reduced.

When the food delivery finally started, Mr. Zhou knocked on the table: "Why is there one less?"

"Didn't one die today?" Miss Yan said impatiently.

"I've already forgotten him. There are fourteen people here now, and the singer didn't come." Mr. Zhou said coldly, "Servant, what's going on?"

"Mr. Zhang said that he is not feeling well, and today's dinner will be sent to his room." Qu Langyue said.

"Did you hear what he said?" Mr. Zhou asked.

"Ye Yunmei heard it." Qu Langyue looked to the side.Ye Yunmei nodded: "I heard Mr. Zhang say that in the room."

"Have you seen anyone?" Mr. Zhou asked.

"Are you still letting everyone eat?" Ms. Yan yelled, "If you are suspicious, go and see for yourself! I don't care what happens to that singer! Serve the food!"

The two most powerful people on the table quarreled, and no one else dared to speak.The servants began to serve the dishes, and the Chinese dishes were delicious, delicious, and indeed, as Wei Haonan said, it made people feel a lot more relaxed.

The only downside was that Mr. Zhou got up and went upstairs after he finished his food in a hurry.

Without a cold guy like him, the after-dinner chat became much more harmonious.Ms. Yan is only short-tempered and doesn't have too much prejudice. The noble lady is very good at judging the situation. Seeing that most people are willing to chat now, she didn't bring up any spoiling topics.

Lu Ning slowly joined in the chat.She first praised the girl next to her who was playing the violin, and then she improved her level. Sure enough, the girl was very helpful, and the two immediately started talking.The girl's name is Qi Leyin, and she comes from a wealthy family. She has learned the violin since she was a child, and she is only interested in music.Her super power has nothing to do with music, but can make any non-living body dissolve in water, including things like metal, and can also extract such liquids in reverse.

"A very convenient ability!"

"It's not that convenient... because the dissolved and restored items will lose their original form, just like dissolving a piece of salt in water and then precipitation, it will not be what it was before."

Obviously, there are some limitations in ability. Qi Leyin doesn't seem to be very interested in her ability, and she doesn't seem to have tested her ability.Fortunately, she is a bit simple, as long as they talk about music, Lu Ning just needs to be by the side, and she can talk for a long time by herself.

There was a harmonious atmosphere until Mr. Zhou returned to the restaurant again.

"Listen—there's no one in the room."

With one sentence, the lively atmosphere was completely cooled down.

"Let's talk about an interesting situation. I also asked in the room and heard the guy's reply, but I still broke into the room. No matter what I asked, I could hear his voice, but no one in the room No." Mr. Zhou said with a sneer, "Can someone explain?"

"We stayed in our respective rooms before eating, what, what are we explaining?" Michael said.

"Why don't you go and see the scene." Lu Ning stood up, "Mr. Zhou, did you just break in? There's no guarantee that you just completed the crime and disguised the scene before coming here, right?"

"Hmph, do you doubt it? I have a clear conscience, anyone who is interested can come with me!"

Of course Lu Ning would go there, and Meng Juan, Tang Ling, Miss Yan, Michael and others also got up one after another.This kind of thing happened again in the Hongmei Pavilion, and no one could sit still.

"Wait a minute! I can project the distant scene here, and we can record the scene first!" Han Xuezhi suddenly shouted.

"No, wait a minute." Michael stopped, "How did your ability change back and forth? I know that some people have several different superpowers, but this is a bit too fitting for you, right?"

Lu Ning has also seen Emmy use different kinds of abilities, but it's not like Han Xuezhi. It's too coincidental to come up with a suitable superpower on an occasion.

When Han Xuezhi was asked this question, he hesitated a bit. Mr. Zhou narrowed his eyes: "Then you might as well show your ability. I remember you showed the ability to make the mark appear yesterday, right?"

"And earlier he showed the ability to fold." Lu Ning added.

Han Xuezhi hurriedly rubbed his hands, and put on a gesture of holding something: "Which room?"

"Dong-shuoyue." Mr. Zhou said.

"it is good……"

A three-dimensional snow pattern appeared on the palm of his hand as if the signal was not good. Gradually, the internal image became clearer, and a three-dimensional projection of a room appeared on his hand. As Han Xuezhi slowly separated his hands, the projection also appeared. become bigger and bigger.

"Strange, all his abilities are real. Can people who have never studied before master so many irrelevant abilities?" Meng Juan asked curiously.

"Or this young man's ability is to master multiple abilities." Mr. Xu laughed, "Let's not pursue this for now, let's take a look at the current room, so as not to wait for any changes when we enter."

The room looked a little messy, but it was all about living habits. Mr. Zhou asked Ye Yunmei, and the room seemed to be in this messy state all the time. Fortunately, the time of living was relatively short.

"Everyone took pictures, right? Then we might as well go and have a look at the scene." Meng Juan said with a smile.

After such an interruption, everyone's emotions have stabilized. After all, they are all superpowers, and they are better than ordinary people in controlling their mentality.After arriving upstairs, everyone saw that the door lock was broken with something that seemed to be a sharp weapon, and all looked at Mr. Zhou.

Mr. Zhou raised a finger, covered with metallic luster, and a sharp knife gradually extended from it, he didn't even bother to explain, just showed it, and then gave up the position of the door—to avoid suspicion.

Lu Ning and the others walked into the room first.

"Mr. Zhang?" Meng Juan asked tentatively.

"I am here."

An answer came from the room, but the strange thing was that everyone couldn't judge the direction by the sound of the answer.

"We can't see you, where are you?" Lu Ning asked again.

"I am here."

"In the room?" Miss Yan said.

"exist."

Several people looked left and right, and the furnishings in each room were actually very simple, only the cabinet could hide one person, but the cabinet had already been opened by Ms. Yan, and there were only a few clothes in it.

"He Shanyong, is this voice true?" Ms. Yan asked outside the door again.

"I can't tell the difference... I've never distinguished this kind of sound without a source!" He Shanyong looked a little panicked, "I activated the ability, but there was no echo... It's as if there is no real or fake!"

"Then he may be dead." Mr. Zhou said indifferently.
