Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 877 "Liang Ansheng's Roaming Empire RPG Game", Prologue
Chen Yan suddenly didn't know what to say.

He has almost witnessed the whole process of the third uncle becoming what he is now. He knows that the third uncle is a bad guy without any sense of morality, but he really can't hate this person.

The third uncle did help him when he first came to Yanan City, took him to Walker Street, and gave him a place to stay when he was unfamiliar with the place—even if all of this was just out of profit considerations, It is indeed "helped".

Chen Yan is worth every penny. You have helped me, and I will remember your kindness; if you want to cheat me, I have to pay it back.

Chen Yan recalled the perfect fake compassionate face of the third uncle, and could always recall that when he was in his hometown, his father once told him: People make mistakes, and if they change, they must be able to tolerate him.

Chen Yan thinks he can tolerate third uncle.

At least he won't try to kill third uncle on the spot the next time he meets him.

Of course, he doesn't have Ogami or Swarm by his side now, so he doesn't have the ability to maintain an absolute advantage when facing his third uncle at any time.

Chen Yan thought to himself that he had killed the third uncle twice, the first time was in the zoo, and the second time he personally killed the skeletal dragon transformed by the rotten third uncle. It can be regarded as avenging the third uncle's revenge for cheating him.

When killing the skeleton dragon that the third uncle turned into, Chen Yan thought in his heart at that time, this can be regarded as a balance of gratitude and resentment, and no one owes anyone else.

Chen Yan knew how difficult it was for the third uncle to come all the way.

Ever since he was split in two by Xanthium, one half continued to be Liang Ansheng, and the other half became Miao Shuisheng, the third uncle could never get rid of the shadow brought by [Flesh and Flesh Ascension]. The ability he brought was still the entanglement with Miao Shuisheng. Chen Yan witnessed everything that the third uncle went through to become what he is today.

Chen Yan saw something very wonderful from the experience of the third uncle—it was like watching a gangster movie. The first half of the movie was bloody, dirty, cast aside, unrighteous, morally corrupt, and stinky.

But honestly it's wonderful.

In the second half of the movie, it suddenly turned into an RPG game in which Chen Yan made key choices. In this RPG game, the third uncle struggled and struggled with all means, giving up all his dignity as a human being, but In the end, because of Chen Yan's choice, he ended up being neither human nor ghost.

Chen Yan originally thought that the death of the skeleton dragon was already the end of the last boss battle performance of this RPG game - the plot was exciting enough, the scene was spectacular enough, and the sense of achievement in killing it was strong enough.

A few weeks ago, when Chen Yan first came to the island chain, with the help of Osmandis, Chen Yan returned to the zoo. When he saw the reborn third uncle, Chen Yan realized that there was a sequel to this movie.

Or maybe there is a second part of this RPG game.

Liang Ansheng has been reborn, and the hidden Miao Shuisheng has also surfaced. Then, how can Xanth, the mastermind behind all this, be alone?
Chen Yan decided to play the second game.

Even though the third uncle has become neither human nor ghost, Chen Yan is still unwilling to let him go, and wants to make a new plot choice for this RPG game that belongs to the third uncle alone.

No matter what the choice leads to, it is what Chen Yan wants to do.

All this is like fate, Chen Yan thought to himself.

He thought of "fate" without warning, and after a moment, he thought of the people he saw in [Ice Age].

Or maybe, between Chen Yan and Liang Ansheng of this generation, there is bound to be a grievance that must happen.

When he thought of this, he denied his absurd idea.

'What the fuck is fate, it doesn't exist, everything is just a coincidence. '

The third uncle's words made him stop fantasizing about it.

"Your voice has changed, Xiao Chen."

Third Uncle's voice was very calm, but Chen Yan always felt gloomy.

"Growing up so much, not being you...but I know it's you, I can smell you...you're right there with me, right?"

The third uncle obviously has more powerful abilities than before, he can smell Chen Yan, but Chen Yan only has consciousness existing in the zoo... Maybe this is just the third uncle's deception, and deception is the third uncle's habit The method, Chen Yan had already learned it before.

Chen Yan didn't take the bait.

Chen Yan thought about a lot of things at this moment, and the [Sky Ladder BS-1225] chip was enough for him to sort out those things in an instant and make a decision—he was very concerned about the third uncle's "resurrection" from the garbage truck in the zoo. Things are curious, but now is not the time to discuss those things.

Chen Yan suddenly changed the subject and said:
"Actually, even if I don't intervene, you can't have Marina's child... There is something very powerful in that child's body."

A deep laugh came from the phone:

"You're testing me again, Xiao Chen. Of course I know about it... But I was in the zoo at the time, and I couldn't contact the other me. I couldn't remind him, and I didn't even know that he was sinking."

Chen Yan pointed out the flaw in his words:
"The decision to possess Marina's child must have been made by you together, and you must not know what is in Marina's child, otherwise how would you make the decision to [possess] it? You are just an afterthought now."

The two communicated in Tianshenzhou language throughout the whole process, and the third uncle naturally understood what he meant at once.

"I'm afraid you're calling today not just to try me out meaninglessly."

Chen Yan said sincerely:
"Yes, I want to ask for your help—I want to leave the zoo and go into the wild."

After a brief pause, there was only a slight popping sound on the phone:
"what!"

The third uncle seemed to have heard the most ridiculous thing in the world, and there seemed to be a faint "hissing" sound in his uncontrollable low-pitched ridicule—Chen Yan was sure that he heard it right.

"You just know that the zoo is built on the edge of the wilderness, and you want to go to the wilderness through the zoo?"

Chen Yancheng said:
"Yes."

He immediately realized that things were not as easy as he thought.

The third uncle almost broke his mind at the next moment:
"Where do you want to go? Xiao Chen, you want to go to the place you want to go through the wilderness, right? Your voice has changed, which means that you may not be in your own body anymore. Who are you in now? You Want to find your body through the wilderness, don't you?"

He was almost half right!
Chen Yan did not admit it, but said:
"I would like to ask you to do this favor. In return, I will tell you what method Miao Shuisheng used to keep you from prying eyes."

The other side of the phone said in a joking tone:

"You're just wishful thinking and over-speculating."

Chen Yan let out a "hehe":
"Then hang up the phone."

After three seconds of silence.

Third Uncle: "Hehe."

Chen Yan: "Hehe."

The third uncle said unhurriedly: "Little brat, I really shouldn't have spared your life last time."

Chen Yan said at the same speed: "If you don't save my life, how can you know Miao Shuisheng's methods? If you don't know what methods Miao Shuisheng has, how can..."

He paused here, and then said in a non-smiling tone, "Really?"

Chen Yan knew in his heart that from what Miao Shuisheng described last time, the third uncle must want to achieve something through Miao Shuisheng's body. (Chapter 807-809)
He obviously guessed right, because the third uncle's voice suddenly became ruthless: "You are not afraid that I will trick you out and kill you."

Chen Yan's tone became flat: "I admit that I have gambling elements."

The next moment, the third uncle's voice lost his ferocity, and it seemed that he had suddenly changed into the gangster that Chen Yan once knew, who would smile at everyone, eat people without letting others know, and never spit out his bones:
"Okay, then you come out and come to the main road. I will find you and take you to the wilderness outside the zoo. You tell me about Miao Shuisheng."

Chen Yan said:

"it is good."

Then hung up the phone immediately.

Van Brinmersh reminded:

"This is really too dangerous..."

Chen Yan put away the fake expression dedicated to facing the enemy, and pondered:

"He has very important things to do, and the only one who can help him is me."

Chen Yan knew very well that Uncle San didn't really care about "face" or "dignity", he only cared about his interests, and he would not do irrational things for his own emotions—"To release emotions The third uncle can't do things like "revenge".

Therefore, Chen Yan was sure that if he could bring benefits to him, he would definitely not attack him.

Seeing that he had made up his mind, Van Brinmers said no more, but said:

"I have established a LAN link between your brain computer and mine. Once he attacks you, you can escape first through the link."

"Also, remember to charge the battery within 24 hours!"

Chen Yan said sincerely:
"Thank you for helping me so much."

Van Brinmersh said in a very solemn tone:
"You saved my life, so I should help you."

Chen Yan didn't say any more, but asked her for a flashlight and asked her to help him get back to the ground.

……

……

A moment later, outside the tiger area.

High above the sky, a blood moon hangs high.

There seemed to be bloody ashes like flying mosquitoes floating in the night sky, [Bai Zhu]'s strong sense of smell made Chen Yan easily smell the bloody smell in the air, he turned his head involuntarily——

The smell of blood came from the depths of the zoo, which was a direction Chen Yan had never been to.

Seemingly screams and shouts came from the ears, and the frantic voices from the invitees were clearer than before.

He turned his head, and his field of vision followed, a crooked figure leaning on a cane was standing under the dim streetlight not far away.

Although the figure was standing under the street lamp, the shadow formed by the tall hat almost covered half of his body, which made him look extremely gloomy.

Chen Yan didn't know if it was his own illusion. In the place where the soft light of the street lamps could shine, he saw more barnacles from the third uncle. Uncle's whole body, it looks like some kind of "eye-shaped" barnacle of "ornithium" - it looks like it is covered with slender and dark green rotten eyes.

Clear vision magnifies everything in the field of vision, but Chen Yan does not feel uncomfortable because he easily uses his body to delete the "discomfort".

He walked towards the third uncle, and the third uncle came out from under the street lamp.

When we got closer, Chen Yan saw that unlike the last time we met in the aquarium, the third uncle not only had more barnacles, but also some other marine parasites, the most conspicuous one was his forehead. Chen Yan determined that it was some kind of fish that could parasitize on the subcutaneous fat.

"Come with me."

The third uncle didn't say much, but let Chen Yan follow.

Chen Yan followed behind Third Uncle, keeping a distance of a few steps.

His eyes swept over Third Uncle's barnacle cane, and he easily saw the bloodstains left on the cane. [Bai Shu]'s pupils began to focus, so he saw that the bloodstains were being absorbed by the barnacles on the cane—those that looked evil The incomparably small thing moved slightly, absorbing a little of the blood around it.

What happened to Uncle San?
Chen Yan now has no eyes as a spiritual organ in the physical body, and can no longer use synaesthesia for everything around him. He can only use his consciousness to carry out weak exploration, and this level of exploration is not enough to know the secrets above things.

After the third uncle took Chen Yan out of the tiger area, he entered a clump of grass beside the road. At this time, the water under his feet had reached his ankles. The distance between Zhuo and third uncle.

Soon, he felt something was wrong, and the ground under his feet began to become "weird" - the water flow under his feet stopped flowing, and the mud floor under the water turned into a dark shadow.

Chen Yan did not stop because of this.

Because the third uncle is still walking in front, and the ground under the third uncle's feet exists in the form of "cracks everywhere", it seems that he will fall into something if he takes a wrong step.

The light and shadow in front of Chen Yan intertwined, and the field of vision was dim, but some light penetrated through the irregularly shaped "hole" in the midair.

When passing through a "hole", Chen Yan suddenly saw that less than two meters away from him—almost at the position beside him, several invitees who had fallen to the ground were being hunted by the zoo hunter Wilson. The meat saw knife cut into their bodies, and the blood splashed on Chen Yan's face, and the bloody smell immediately came to his nostrils.

But Wilson and the invitees didn't seem to notice the existence of Chen Yan at all. The deep and frantic laughter was accompanied by wailing and calls for help, and all the sounds continued.

'What's the situation... Where am I now?Hide inside the walls? '

Chen Yan glanced blankly at the shadowy ground.

'But this place doesn't look like a serious... place, it seems... like a world that hasn't been formed yet... like a half-edited program... like a drawing board with only a mask painted on it! '

A sudden voice came from behind, interrupting Chen Yan's thinking.

"Xiao Chen, what are you thinking?"

Chen Yan turned around abruptly, and saw Third Uncle standing less than one meter away from him, staring at him with that terrifying barnacle face with a half-smile.

"Must, please follow in my footsteps."

He seemed to be laughing, Chen Yan heard a smile, but didn't hear it.

"Wherever I go, you will go. Once you take a wrong step, you will fall forever, and you will never come back no matter what."

After the third uncle finished speaking, he turned around, turned his back to Chen Yan, and continued to say with that disturbing half-smile:
"Keep close."
