I'm mentally retarded, who asked me to join Rules Monster Talk?

Chapter 341 Clearance Conditions
"Mu Yao, something's a little bit wrong. Don't get close yet..."

Xiao Yi, who suddenly felt something was wrong, immediately became alert and climbed the ladder into the so-called underground space...

The moment he entered, the smell of blood reached its peak.

The pungent smell made it difficult for Xiao Yi to stand, and he couldn't help but pinch his nose.

The underground space is very dark, which is natural, because this is a nearly closed space with limited light.

However, Xiao Yina's eyes, which gradually adapted to the darkness, immediately discovered... the human-shaped objects lying on the ground scattered all over the place.

There was no doubt that it was just a pile of corpses, and... they were corpses that had just died.

"...What's going on?" Xiao Yi frowned immediately.

Did those monsters break in? But... the entrance was not damaged. Judging from the size of the monsters Xiao Yi had seen, it was obvious that they could not pass through the entrance.

Could it be that there are actually monsters as big as humans, or...

Xiao Yi can now detect these subtle situations, so after Luo Muyao came out, he immediately reminded:
"Don't act yet, there is something hidden around..."

Xiao Yi immediately noticed that compared to the previous silent environment where not only people but also monsters were not seen, now Xiao Yi heard strange sounds coming from everywhere.

It was like a breathing sound... mixed with the sound of something vibrating, like the sound of a heartbeat.

"...Uh, okay." Luo Muyao immediately shrank behind Xiao Yi, not daring to move.

"...Yeah." Luo Muyao nodded immediately, stopped asking any more questions, and tried his best to keep up with Xiao Yi's pace.

"I don't know about this..." Xiao Yi said, and then took steps, "They were already dead when I came here. I can't confirm the previous situation, but judging from their death conditions, they should be ordinary people. If you can't do anything with your own strength, leave first... The only thing you can be sure of is that this place is no longer safe."

"...They are all dead." Xiao Yi replied.

Xiao Yi immediately checked carefully and after confirming that everyone here was dead and no one survived, he left from the entrance.

"...What's wrong?" Seeing Xiao Yi coming back, Luo Muyao stepped forward and asked.

"...Oh~ So this is what other people say about me?" Xiao Yi scratched his cheek, "I don't know why... I'm not very happy because other people didn't even give me a cool and rich name. Is it because of the poetic name?”

Then, when they climbed the ladder to the outside, Xiao Yi once again noticed something was wrong.

Then, just as Xiao Yi said, there was indeed something lurking around, and the lurking existence... When they saw Xiao Yi, they did not act as expected, but noticed something and were on guard. Looking at himself, he also knew that there was no point in hiding any longer, so he showed up immediately...

"What an amazing insight. I didn't expect... to be able to see through me..."

"...Uh, who are you?" Xiao Yi asked.

"All dead?" Luo Muyao was also stunned, "What does this mean? What happened?"

Even though no one around him saw it and it was very quiet, Luo Muyao felt that since Xiao Yi said so, it was always right to be cautious.

As a voice came, a man's figure appeared in front of Xiao Yi and the others.

"...Who am I?" Xiao Yi was also stunned, thinking that this person was not going to discuss some philosophical issues with him, right? Under such circumstances, he still has the intention to do such a thing...Is his mind okay?
"I know very well who you are." The man continued: "In other words, there are not many people who don't know you... Xiao Yi, the savior of the Dragon Kingdom, is regarded by the entire Blue Star as the best hope for resisting the rules and strange talk. ”

However, there is no use thinking about these here. These people are already dead, and the murderer who caused their death is not here. It will only be a waste of time to delve into these without any clues.

"It doesn't matter who I am..." However, the man had no intention of saying his name. Instead, he smiled at Xiao Yi and said, "What matters is who you are..."

"There are some strange movements around..."

"Is that the point? No..." The man suddenly fell silent for a moment, then sighed, and then continued: "I see, it seems that if I communicate with you, the rhythm of the conversation will be carried away by you. Forget it, in short, you only need to know one thing, that is... you will die in my hands. "

"...Huh?" Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi couldn't help but be stunned, "What does this mean? Why are you suddenly going to kill people? Do you have any grudge against me? I thought about it and I haven't killed anyone either. Your mother?"

"...It has nothing to do with personal grudges." The man said with a stern face: "It's about you and me. Everyone will die eventually. In this case, you might as well let me kill you. At least... you can save yourself before the final death. , get the honor of killing the legendary Xiao Yi with your own hands."

"..." Xiao Yi was silent for a moment, and then asked Luo Muyao: "Do you understand what he is saying?"

"No..." Luo Muyao also shook his head, "The devil knows what he is talking about."

So Xiao Yi looked at the man again and said, "Sorry... we don't understand what you are talking about at all."

"Don't you understand?" The man sighed and said, "I think if it were you, you should be able to understand, right? Most people in the world are too stupid to think that you are the hope of defeating the weird rules and nonsense. However, anyone with a discerning eye can It can be seen...Rule Monster is invincible, even your power that can create miracles is given by Rule Monster..."

"...Ah." Xiao Yi finally understood.

"It seems you have understood." The man continued: "Even the strength to resist is given by the enemy, so what hope do we have? Just like everyone will die eventually, we will eventually lose After being worth watching, it was casually destroyed. Since the end is death, then...why not live a more exciting life? Therefore, during this period of time, I have been living as I want, only following what I want, without worrying about it. Those meaningless ethics, through this, I finally felt free.”

"I see..." Xiao Yi nodded, "It seems that you also killed those people in the underground space?"

"Exactly." The man admitted without any hesitation.

"What..." Luo Muyao on the side couldn't help but be surprised.

She didn't expect that what she thought was suicide would eventually lead to her own survival. If she had stayed in that safe place, she might have died like those people. Actually... is there such a ridiculous thing?
The man continued: "It is too painful to bear this despair, and people with weak hearts are not able to swallow this despair, so... I let them free themselves. What's more, this is What Rules Monster wants me to do..."

"……hope?"

"Yes, when this crisis comes, each of us receives a message, and that is what guides us."

"...Information?" Xiao Yi asked doubtfully: "What information?"

"Is that what you are talking about?" At this time, Luo Muyao said: "[From this moment on, all humans on the Blue Star will enter the Rules and Ghost Stories Dungeon...Okay, let's start the cruel competition for survival.], I remember seeing this message, but..."

"That's right, the weird rules have been clearly stated." The man said solemnly: "Let's start... the cruel competition for survival. Doesn't it mean that we compete for survival? So... this time the dungeon The conditions for clearing the level are, without a doubt, to allow a certain number of people on the Blue Star to die before the level can be cleared."

"...Eh?" Luo Muyao looked in disbelief, "...How could such a thing be possible..."

"...Want to see the evidence?" The man said, and the aura on his body also changed. "After killing enough people, I...obtained the [Innate Ability] that only the Chosen One could possess. 】! Not only that! Come out!”

Following his order, countless monsters jumped out in unison and surrounded Xiao Yi and the others!
"Did you see it?" he said: "Even these monsters are completely obeying my orders. Is there any more powerful evidence than this?"

"This..." Luo Muyao couldn't refute for a while and had to remain silent.

"Okay, Xiao Yi..." The man looked at Xiao Yi again, "Since resistance is meaningless, it is better to obey. At least you can be free before you die. This is the source of my actions. Now, you can too I understand... Haha, I can see that there are no traces of innate ability on your body. It seems that Rules Monster has gotten tired of you, the factor that makes the story sure to succeed, and has abandoned you as just an ordinary person! You are no longer my match! But just in case... go ahead."

Following the man's thought, all those monsters rushed towards Xiao Yi and the others!

The ending has been decided... However, just as the man thought this, the monsters he controlled were all torn into countless pieces at that moment!
"……Eh?"

He was stunned. Shouldn't Xiao Yi not have the power of the rules and strange talk? So what is going on! ?
However, before he had time to think more, his consciousness was completely interrupted.

"... Incurable guy, just embrace your favorite death."

Xiao Yi retracted his hand, and at the same time, his face became a little gloomy.

If what this guy said is true, and if the clearance conditions really require reducing the number of people on Blue Star, it will undoubtedly be the most troublesome situation for Xiao Yi.

However, it is not certain yet, at least...it cannot be confirmed before going to that tower.

Therefore, Xiao Yi also immediately decided to go to the tower as quickly as possible.

"Let's go, Mu Yao... there's nothing to do here. Let's go to the so-called gathering place first."

After saying that, Xiao Yi took steps and was ready to set off immediately.

"...Ah!" Luo Muyao finally recovered from his daze and quickly followed Xiao Yi's pace.

"..." However, looking at Xiao Yi's side face, she couldn't help but feel worried.

……

Later, under Luo Muyao's guidance, Xiao Yi drove to one of the four major provinces and cities in the Dragon Kingdom. After some searching, I really found the so-called gathering place.

Rather, it was the people at the gathering place who discovered Xiao Yi and the others first, so they took the initiative to contact Xiao Yi and the others.

After understanding, although in the early days of this gathering place, monsters often broke in and attacked people, resulting in the death of many people. However, with the concerted efforts of everyone, the protection has become more and more perfect, and now there are no monsters breaking in at all. pass.

From this, Luo Muyao can be considered to be in a safe place. Xiao Yi finally felt relieved.

At the same time, Xiao Yi also got a very important piece of information here, that is... the place where the tower first appeared was in the capital of the Dragon Kingdom.

That was also where Xu Yingguang was.

The next destination has been confirmed. Xiao Yi did not stop and immediately chose to leave. However, before Xiao Yi left, he thought for a moment and went to see Luo Muyao one last time.

"Luo Muyao... there's something I've wanted to ask you for a while. Until you came here, you were alone with no one to accompany you. Where are your... parents?"

"Parents?" Luo Muyao smiled bitterly and replied: "Dad's words were no longer there when the previous strangeness came, and mother... She seemed to have suffered from a hidden disease when she was young, and she has been bedridden. This time Before the crisis came...he was gone."

"...Really? Sorry..."

"No, I don't mind..." Luo Muyao forced a smile, "Before my mother died, she always thought she was suffering from the disease. I think that would be the best ending for her. Also Yes..."

Luo Muyao hesitated for a moment, but still said:
"Before she died, my mother kept reciting the name of a person. It was... the name of the child she abandoned before she gave birth to me. Only then did I realize that my mother, who was originally so gentle and kind, had also done She had lived something like that... Before she died, she had been repenting of her actions, but... she also understood that repentance and regret were useless. The only thing she could do was to pray in her heart that the child was still alive. And, living happily..."

"...Really?" Xiao Yi hesitated for a moment, and then asked: "Then...what is the name of her child?"

"...Luo Mu." Luo Muyao said a name softly, "She hasn't given the name to the child she abandoned yet...it's called Luo Mu."

"...Luo Mu? What a nice name."

Xiao Yi sighed with emotion, but he also determined that that name... was not his name.
