A mob of clones

Chapter 636 Li Shuaixi: Believe in Chu Xuan’s wisdom, not Chu Xuan’s kindness
"Seven days, except for the time it takes Kayako to kill everyone in the city and reach her strongest state."

"Perhaps it could also represent a restriction on a certain mechanism of Kayako's special ability..."

He appeared with one hand holding a mobile phone and the other hand adjusting his glasses on his face, but before he could finish his words.

"Beep beep..."

"Cluck, cluck, cluck—"

Listening to the signal interruption tone coming from the mobile phone, feeling the cold wind blowing from all directions, listening to the creepy laughter coming from nowhere, and looking at the burning talisman paper in front of him, Chu Xuan sighed slightly.

"Is it coming faster than I thought?"

"That's fine..."

Following the direction guided by his heart, he silently raised his head, and the moment he raised his right hand, a silver pistol appeared in his hand.

"Let me confirm my final guess..."

Dazzling sparks exploded in the space, and the bullet engraved with mysterious runes flew high into the sky, accurately hitting a pale woman who was entwined on the street lamp above her head like a giant spider.

……

"Bang bang bang bang-"

"Damn, damn, damn!"

Listening to the continuous gunshots ringing in his ears, Li Shuaxi hid behind a window in fear, holding his heart with one hand and gasping for breath.

It was as if there was some ferocious beast beating wildly inside his heart, almost making it jump out of his chest.

“These are not what I originally thought!!!”

Recalling the terrifying female ghost that appeared above Chu Xuan's head just a moment ago, Li Shuaxi felt as if his heart was being held directly by a cold big hand. The blood flow seemed to be blocked at this moment, and his whole body felt cold.

However, thinking back to the 2,500 reward points he had won in the main god space and the enhancement exchanged for a D-level side story, Li Shuaxi took a deep breath.

It seemed that I had gained a little more confidence, and the fear in my heart disappeared a little.

Li Shuaxi propped up his legs with all his strength, supported his body against the wall, and grabbed the edge of the window behind him with both hands, and looked at the situation on Chu Xuan's side through the window.

Then we saw Kayako, who was beaten into a hornet's nest, and her figure disappeared in the wind like mist.

He couldn't help but froze on the spot, and even the policy he had formulated at the beginning of the game, which was to just take a look and lie down again, was completely forgotten at this moment.

There was only one thought that kept echoing in my mind.

"The boss with an A-level side story and 7,000 bonus points is gone. That's it? That's it?"

Because this location is relatively far away from Chu Xuan, Li Shuaxi did not hear the popular science that Chu Xuan had sorted out about the positioning of ghosts and monsters in the main god space.

Therefore, in Li Shuaxi's impression, ghosts should be the evil ghosts, ghost cultivators, and red-clothed evil ghosts in fantasy novels.

Whenever these monsters appear, they are often accompanied by huge and bizarre distortions of reality, and their every move is extremely destructive.

Basically, inherent skills include creating illusions, directly controlling the human body, and being immune to physical attacks.

Only powerful practitioners or ghosts of the same level can truly kill it and reduce it to ashes.

Who would have thought that Kayako was such a loser. She was killed instantly by Chu Xuan within a few seconds of the fight.

"If I had known it was so easy, I should have stepped forward and eliminated Kayako myself."

Although Kayako on the first day was not the final BOSS on the seventh day as required in the mission.

But just like the world they had experienced before, ordinary aliens were rewarded and the Alien Queen was also rewarded.

I guess there should be some rewards after killing Kayako on the first day, but they are not as rich as those for the main quest.

But if it can be obtained so easily, it doesn’t matter if it’s a small amount, it would be a shame not to take it.

When Li Shuaxi thought about the fact that he had missed out on rewards and side stories that could have allowed him to redeem them for further enhancements, he felt as if he had lost 100 million.

Of course, Li Shuaxi was not overwhelmed by these things.

He did not forget the real purpose of his appearance here—the clearance item of the Grudge World that Chu Xuan obtained when he acted alone today...

Time goes back to about twenty minutes ago...

"Ding-a-ling, jingle-"

A piercing ringing sounded without warning in the quiet hotel. It slowly spread through the air and was collected by a pair of huge ears. It vibrated the eardrum through the inner ear canal and finally woke up the person sleeping in the room...

Less than two seconds after the ringtone sounded, a big hand quickly slapped the phone whose screen suddenly lit up, and raised it to a face hidden in the darkness.

Li Shuaxi looked at the time on his phone, which was ten past five. He opened his mouth and yawned slightly, glanced at the sunset outside the window, then put the phone down and lay back down on the bed.

Li Shuaxi did not try to cover up the truth like others did and filled the room with lights.

Li Shuaxi has seen the movie Ju-Grudge. The lighting is useless. If Kayako comes, the movie will be in tatters.

His preventive measure was to set the alarm clock constantly and open his eyes every ten minutes to observe the current weather conditions.

Wait until it is almost completely dark, then look for other people and use collective strength to fight against Kayako.

As for now...

Li Shuaxi looked at the sunset outside which had not yet completely set and shook his head.

It's still early now, so we can rest for a while.

However, just when Li Shuaxi was about to lie down again to continue resting, the sound of a door lock being locked suddenly rang out, which instantly touched Li Xushuai's nerves, and he sat up from the bed again.

The room the hotel is currently in is located at the very edge of the hotel, next to Chu Xuan's room.

Although it is highly unlikely that ghosts will come out and wander around during the day, just in case, everyone chose a hotel with relatively poor sound insulation.

The purpose of Li Shuaxi's appearance here is naturally to monitor the situation on Chu Xuan's side at any time.

Li Shuaxi did not choose to install any eavesdropping device on Chu Xuan, because he knew that this thing probably could not be hidden from the other party.

Therefore, he chose to tiptoe to the white wall he shared with Chu Xuan, and then...

Eavesdropping...

The most advanced intelligence often requires only the simplest forms of surveillance.

The soundproofing in the hotel is very poor. If you speak a little louder, the room next door can hear some of the noise.

Even though Chu Xuan has an incredible IQ, he is still a human being after all, and he did not exchange for any hidden enhancements.

Walking still makes sound, and the sound of talking can still spread.

Li Shuaxi wanted to see what Chu Xuan wanted to do at this time.

With one ear placed against the wall, he tried hard to listen to the movements coming from Chu Xuan next door. Then Li Shuaxi heard the faint sound coming from next door.

"Have you brought everything?"

"If you've got it ready, let's go..."

"Yes!"

The voice in the first two sentences was a bit magnetic, and Li Shuaxi was very familiar with it, it was Chu Xuan's voice. The voice in the second sentence was very steady, it was the voice of the other party's creator Arnold.

After this simple conversation was completed, two clearly distinguishable footsteps were heard.

A very stable...

The other one seems a little heavy...

The first one was fine, but the second one was obviously the sound of a huge person carrying a heavy object.

Just by imagining, Li Shuaxi could roughly imagine the scene where the human Arnold appeared, carrying a huge backpack and following Chu Xuan away.

The footsteps paused for a few seconds, and then the door handle was turned, and then the footsteps faded away...

As the footsteps got farther and farther away, Li Shuaxi couldn't help but pull his ear away from the wall, put his right hand to his mouth, and nibbled it lightly to promote his thinking. He said in his heart:
"What does Chu Xuan want to do with all these things?!"

Turning his head to look out the window, watching the gradually setting sun, Li Shuaxi once again asked himself a question.

"And at this time! It's going to be dark soon!"

"Isn't it seeking death to be outside alone?!"

"And the sound of unlocking the door at the beginning..."

Since Chu Xuan and Arnold walked several steps before reaching the door and turning the doorknob, that means the sound of unlocking was not the door lock being opened.

"If it's not a door lock, then what could it be?!"

His brain was working frantically, and suddenly a light bulb went off in Li Shuaxi's mind.

He suddenly remembered that this morning, Chu Xuan had not been assigned any mission, so he was free to act until three o'clock in the afternoon, when he reunited with the others...

"Could it be that the guy found some important mission props during that time?" Li Shuaxi's brain was still working quickly.

Moreover, he had personally witnessed Chu Xuan's use of mission props.

In the central computer control cabin of Alien 1, he saw with his own eyes Chu Xuan reading the control manual of the Iron Warrior Armor from the robot's intelligent chip.

And in just a few minutes, he roughly deciphered some simple words of the Predator.

And having successfully used the Predator's mask, I'm afraid it won't be long before he can directly use the shoulder cannon.

If Linglong Wuhe hadn't killed too quickly and given Chu Xuan some time, he might have been able to directly use the Iron Blood Warrior's weapons for his own use.

By then, it would not be impossible to kill other Iron Warriors and then break into the Alien Queen's lair to complete the mission.

If it weren't for the Void God Linglong Wuhe's descent from the sky, the Iron Blood Warrior's armor would seem to belong to the category of "mission props" to help complete the reincarnation mission.

The more Li Shuaxi recalled his impression of Chu Xuan, the more he believed in his guess.

The more Li Shuaxi slandered Chu Xuan, the more he realized how terrifying this guy Chu Xuan was.

The more you envy him, the more you understand his omnipotence.

No matter in which aspect, any subject, whether known or unknown, as long as he can find a way to learn it, he can fully understand and master it at a speed that ordinary people cannot understand.

At the same time, it has no emotions, no sense of pain, no desires, and even the instinct that is engraved at the bottom of all living things and passed on in genes cannot affect it in the slightest.

He is a truly pure, intelligent, and terrifying freak.

This guy is like a supercomputer capable of infinite deduction. He can generally summarize all the information he has collected and recommend various possibilities.

The only thing that can defeat him is the unknown...

Thinking about Chu Xuan's wisdom, Li Shuaxi was undoubtedly moved.

"Given Chu Xuan's personality, he will definitely choose the most valuable part of the team, just like comparing size, and choose to sacrifice the pawn to save the king."

"And the most valuable player among the Zhongzhou team now..."

At this moment, Li Shuaixi's mind involuntarily emerged with the group of people he met on Earth in the real world.

"Since you chose to kidnap Colonel Chu, then you should understand the value of Colonel Chu!"

"A few tens of millions or hundreds of millions of gold are nothing in front of Colonel Chu.

"If you can send Colonel Chu back, let alone the hundreds of millions of gold, it will be multiplied by ten or a hundred times, or even more than just money. Even fame, power and status are not impossible..."

Although Li Shuaxi understood that the other party was just threatening and bribing him, the possibility of actually getting it was infinitely close to zero.

But just from these promises, we can roughly see the significance of Colonel Chu to the officialdom.

Then he remembered Chu Xuan's action of returning the information to the authorities through him even at the risk of his own destruction, and he made a decision immediately.

"In Chu Xuan's eyes, the lives of all people combined are not as good as his being able to return to the real world alive."

"In that case, the car that was abandoned couldn't be his, but the entire Zhongzhou team!"

"Even if he survives alone, this reincarnation mission will be over, and the next reincarnation missions for other team members will only become more difficult."

"Even if Chu Xuan's plan succeeds and some special forces from the real world are added to the subsequent Zhongzhou team, this is still the case."

"That means this mission item may only cover two areas..."

"At the same time, considering that Arnold, as Chu Xuan's creation, completely obeyed his orders, even if he died, he would not have the slightest resentment like other people. The mission item might only be able to protect one person!"

Li Shuaixi Shen'an could believe in Chu Xuan's wisdom, but he absolutely did not believe in Chu Xuan's bold assumptions about his benevolent views.

And the more he thought about it, the more the clues in his mind became connected.

Finally, when the thought came to his mind, he suddenly turned around and ran towards the window behind him.

Watching Chu Xuan walk out of the main door below the hotel, straddle a motorcycle that he got from somewhere, and quickly walk away.

His heart tightened and he immediately gritted his teeth and took out his trump card, quickly following...

As for notifying the rest of the Zhongzhou team and asking them to follow?
This thought appeared in Li Shuaxi's mind for a moment and was then ruthlessly discarded by him.

There must be a reason why Chu Xuan didn't bring anyone with him.

If there was a fight over the mission items, Li Shuaxi might not be able to get them faster than the other members of the Zhongzhou team...

……

Return to the present.

Li Shuaxi originally thought that the mission item Chu Xuan got was the kind that could help him hide himself so that the Grudge couldn't find him and thus avoid the seven-day mission target.

But the moment Kayako actually appeared, he knew he was wrong.

This was also the reason why he was so scared in the beginning.

Originally thought he was seeking refuge, but turned out to be out to fight the boss alone, how could he not be afraid.

But now it seems that he misunderstood it at the beginning...

There were no mission props at all. It was just because Chu Xuan deduced that Kayako was a complete noob on the first day.

He came out to score points on his own without telling anyone else.

But this is not entirely bad news for Li Shuaxi.

After all, this also made him realize that these ghosts were not invincible, and it didn't seem that difficult to eliminate them in essence.

Although it is not clear how much stronger tomorrow's Jia Yezi will be than today's, and it is not safe to play alone, but if you bring the rest of the Zhongzhou team along, you can get a piece of the pie...

Thinking this in his mind, Li Shuaxi shook his head helplessly.

Alas, there is nothing to watch, there is nothing to watch, I am leaving, I am leaving...

It was just when he patted his butt and was about to leave.

The situation changes suddenly!
"what--"

A sharp cry like fingernails scratching on glass suddenly resounded in the street.

The high-frequency sound waves even shattered the glass in front of Li Shuaxi's eyes, causing gusts of cold wind to rush into the room from the window, making Li Shuaxi's muscles stiff and he stood still for a moment.

At this moment, he opened his eyes wide again and looked towards the place where the sound came from, and then he discovered the true identity of the thing that made such a horrible noise!
That's another Kayako.

Unlike the previous one that appeared directly on the street lamp, this one's half body directly fell on Chu Xuan's creation Arnold.

The other half of the body stretched out two slender arms and tightly grasped Arnold's neck, as if wanting to strangle him to death in this way.

Just at the moment the other party appeared, a soft golden light suddenly burst out from Arnold's body.

The female ghost behind him quickly dissipated in the soft golden light like snow under the scorching sun, and the piercing scream came from her...

From Li Shunxi's position, he could see behind Arnold, in the area covered by the black leather jacket, something that looked like a book was glowing slightly.

A strange light was reflected on Arnold's body, making him look like a golden Buddha holding a Gatling gun, with a terrifying and solemn aura all over his body.

Seeing this scene, a glowing light bulb suddenly appeared above Li Shuaxi's head, and the light of thinking burst out above his head.

At this moment, he recalled that at about three or four o'clock, Zhan Lan and others who were responsible for searching for special places around where mission props might exist had specially marked several place names on the map they bought.

Among those place names, one of them seems to be a famous Buddhist temple.

In an instant, Li Shuaxi seemed to understand everything, and a look of excitement appeared on his face.

"That's it! That's it!"

"No wonder the Lord God specifically mentioned Kayako on the seventh day when issuing tasks."

"If there is a mission item like the Buddhist Scripture that can kill people, then the characteristics of Jia Yezi may not only be getting stronger in these seven days."

"It is very likely that only on the seventh day will the true body appear and we can truly kill it!"

"And this Buddhist scripture is very likely the ultimate killing tool!"

Watching Kayako behind Arnold disappear in the golden light, one terrifying female ghost after another slowly crawled out from the dark shadows around her.

Li Shuaxi became more and more certain about his guess!
The hope of escaping this terrifying world is right in front of him, and Li Shuaxi couldn't help but reveal a happy smile on his face.

It's a pity that he couldn't keep that smile.

because……

A bloodless hand suddenly appeared in Li Shuaxi's field of vision. He raised his head stiffly and saw the empty face...

……
