Zhou Ruins: Unreal Dimension 1

Chapter 19
That creepy smile hung on Jingjing's cheek again.

Suppressing the fear in my heart, when I was about to say something to ease the frozen atmosphere, I heard her say:
"I have seen everything in the room, and I can tell who is right and who is wrong."

"But they are my parents after all, you go, I will not leave with you, and I don't need your care."

Caressing the rotten face in her arms, a trace of tenderness appeared on Jingjing's face.

"But how can you live on your own."

"I don't need to worry about this. Why didn't you think about this problem when you killed my parents?"

"Go away before I change my mind, you are not welcome here now."

Liu An opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but couldn't say anything.

"Then... well, I'm sorry."

He took out all the mineral water and food collected just now from the storage space.

After pondering for a while, he kept the remaining candles and lighters, and he only had one in case of emergencies, and a lighter.

"Put all these back. It's useless for me to ask for these. I'm leaving here soon."

"Get out of here? Where are you going?"

"Nothing to do with you."

"……OK then."

Liu An, who had a dusty nose, took the supplies back to the storage space.

The first candle was about to finish burning, and just as she took out a new one, Jingjing brought another surprise.

"By the way, big brother, I would like to remind you as a friend. Don't turn on the lights on the way back to the entrance of the cave. It's not too far anyway, just a living room away."

"Squint your eyes and walk back slowly along your feet. Don't look at this house."

"Huh? Why?"

"These people were dealt with in this house, and their limbs and internal organs are all over every corner here."

"Besides, there are other scarier ones. If you see them, you will die..."

Hearing what she said, Liu An didn't realize it until now, remembering what happened to his head on the way just running, and vaguely saw something hanging on the wall.

From the shape, it looks like a human, with scattered limbs, and...

[The hidden side mission has been triggered: Return to Dust in the Darkness.

Branch [-] (the first ring): Explore the hidden secrets in the room, and talk to the Returner.

(Complete the first ring task to unlock the next ring)
Branch line [-] (final ring): Explore the hidden secrets in the room and kill those who return to dust.

Warning: If you proceed with Branch [-], you will be opposed to the void forces to which it belongs.

Difficulty of this hidden side mission: void level.

Rewards for completing this hidden side mission:
Branch [-]: Unknown. (depending on level of completion).

Branch [-]: Second Psionic Power.

Penalties for failure of this hidden side mission:
none. (Compared with the current spirit-level task, the difficulty is too high, and the protection regulations have been triggered)]

"Because the current location is special, the task has been automatically accepted."

There are two types of side missions, one is common side missions, and the other is hidden side missions.

Ordinary side quests need to be claimed actively or posted by others.

Hidden side quests need to be triggered passively, for example, if you touch it when talking with others, or you can infer the content related to the hidden side quest, or the current location involves the scene related to the hidden side quest.

Generally speaking, the rewards of hidden side missions are much higher than ordinary side missions.

Regarding the difficulty of the task, from the novice information purchased from the hands of the sages, the order from low to high is: the difficulty of awakening, the difficulty of sages, the easy difficulty, the normal difficulty, the difficult difficulty, the dangerous difficulty, and the high-risk difficulty , super high-risk difficulty.

Difficulty is determined for the current spirit level.

It is said that there are some difficulty levels later, but the current level of authority is not enough to understand.

Not to mention the void-level difficulty this time, it is simply unheard of.

When the acceptance of this hidden side mission was just triggered, the blood red warning suddenly occupied the entire panel.

At the same time, another different voice sounded from the ear, hurried and serious, as if it was broadcast by a real person.

"Warning: Judging by the virtual simulation, the possibility of the Redeemer surviving this hidden side mission is zero."

"Warning: Redeemers please stay away from this area immediately! If you don't leave within 5 minutes, you will die from unknown causes!"

"Remaining time: 4 minutes and 47 seconds."

At this moment, Liu An was still in shock of the second psychic power reward. He had already gritted his teeth and was going to challenge this hidden side mission.

But when he saw the huge bright red exclamation mark, his heart couldn't help trembling, and then he became uneasy and swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva.

My intuition told me that if I didn't run, I would really die!

The second psionic ability, as the name suggests, is the second psionic ability.

He had never heard of this task reward, and he didn't know what it meant, but it didn't prevent him from knowing that this kind of reward was rare.

In the future, when Liu An's authority level is enough to touch this level, then he will understand what this difficulty means, and what will be carried behind this rich reward...

It's also fortunate that he doesn't understand anything at this time, otherwise he will definitely try this mission with envy, and what will greet him will be the darkness of eternal sleep...

"Hey? Brother, why are you frozen? Are you scared?"

"It's normal. When I first climbed here, I was almost scared to death here, thanks to..."

"Oh, I almost slipped my mouth by accident. Anyway, go back quickly, big brother."

The lines of his face were a little cold, and the little girl in front of him made him feel both familiar and strange.

What is familiar is that innocence.

What is strange is the sudden change of temperament, as if he suddenly became another person.

Liu An knew that this was definitely related to the secret hidden here, as well as the returner...

Of course, she couldn't escape the fact that she killed her parents.

Originally, he still couldn't let Jingjing go in his heart, and was still hesitating whether to take her away forcibly.

But after this episode, Liu An only knew that it might not be all right for Jingjing to stay here, but if he didn't run away, he would never have to leave...

"Then I'm leaving, you take care of yourself." Liu An silently put the candle back in his pocket, lowered his head and squinted his eyes to search for the entrance of the cave.

In fact, he really wasn't afraid of those internal organs of dismembered corpses.

He is only afraid of the dark, and the solemn description in Jingjing's mouth, as well as the mysterious returner.

The unknown is always the most frightening.

On the way back, sometimes some sticky liquid would suddenly drip on his body. At this time, he would secretly hypnotize himself, thinking that it was a water drop, and he did not try to find out what it was, and he did not dare to find out what it was. From what it flows.

Of course Liu An knew that it wasn't water droplets, because those liquids still had a residual temperature...

Fortunately, this road is a straight road, and the gaps in the floor have already been filled with blood, so you only need to walk in a straight line on the ground.

In the darkness, the road signs made of blood are particularly deep, guiding the lost creatures on the way forward.

The road was not far away, but in Liu An's eyes, this was the most torturous road he had traveled.

Knowing that danger is close by, but powerless, whether to leave safely can only depend on prayer.

This is the second time he has felt this powerless frustration.

This time, my head bumped into that thing again. From this point of view, I didn't choose the wrong route, and I was almost at the entrance of the cave.

The accident broke out again at this time.

Suddenly, an eye appeared on the floor in front of him. That pale eye with sadness and resentment was enough to extinguish anyone's flame of hope...

Even if you close your eyes, you can still see this scene clearly.

It seems that this eye did not appear on the ground, but directly appeared in the mind...
