Metaphysics boss 4 and a half years old: My aunt’s milk is so sweet

In the end, Ranran did not tell Anzi the quality of the white shoes because she was afraid of hurting his fragile heart.

The group of eight people quickly arrived at the city gate. The main street that was bustling last night was now only filled with biting cold wind. Apart from that, it was not difficult for everyone to observe a detail.

There are more gems inlaid on the main road, which means that many people were killed last night.

Anzi only listened to Ranran's brief description and had no idea how terrifying the real situation of the insect swarm was. Therefore, at this moment, he was ignorantly looking at the main road during the day, and kept sighing that the Gem Flower City without the bonus of lights was far from being as gorgeous as it was at night.

Li Jianye and others who had experienced it personally were now looking at those "newly added fascinating gems" with pale faces.

If Ranran had not appeared in time, their fate would probably have been to become part of these beautiful gems.

"It's worthy of being an S-level area. The difficulty is simply incomparable to other levels..." Liu Shuo murmured, and Hua'er sighed heavily.

Jingjing also looked unhappy. "There was no warning, and the incident progressed too quickly. The participants were only given one night to react. If they didn't react in time..."

After these words were spoken, the six members of the team all had the same question.

How did Ran Ran know that something was wrong? How did he know the hidden rules?
After listening to this, Ran Ran said calmly: "It's not that there are no hints. The hints are still very obvious."

"Where?" Jingjing looked confused, "I don't know anything at all."

Ran Ran said helplessly: "First of all, we have to make it clear that not only the information directly told to you by the NPC is called a clue. After entering the sub-trial, everything your senses receive can be regarded as a clue."

“The people I met, the words I heard, the sights I saw.”

"If we want to successfully pass the trial, we can view it as a difficult problem, and the problem must have its own internal logic."

She spread her hands and said, "After all, if the question is completely illogical, it means that the person who made the question has only one purpose - to make you die."

It was clearly a very rational analysis, but everyone got goosebumps for no reason.

"The Abyss probably didn't intend this, so as long as you grasp the logic of the question, you can solve it according to that logic."

"There seems to be nothing wrong with the Jewel Flower City at first glance, especially when observed over such a short time scale of just one night. It is even more difficult to find anything wrong."

Everyone agreed with this and nodded as they listened.

Ran Ran's final conclusion is...

"But if you observe carefully, you can still feel it."

"Careful observation? That's it?"

"Yeah." Ran Ran nodded, "That's enough."

After hearing this, the final impression of everyone seems to be...

Are they not careful enough?

Zhang Peng sneered and was about to get angry. Lei Zi saw this and covered his mouth with his sandbag-sized fist, saying casually: "Your mouth stinks."

Li Jianye blinked and responded: "Did you hear what Ranran said? Everyone should be more careful in the future."

Hua'er didn't react and was incredulous. "Ah? So the secret to survival is to be careful?"

Liu Shuo adjusted his glasses when he saw this. His sister had such poor comprehension, so he told the truth, "It's better for people to say that we are not careful enough than to say directly that we are not smart enough."

"And the quality of being careful is part of intelligence."

“Only when you can see and hear clearly and react perfectly can you be called smart enough.”

Hua'er seemed to understand, but not quite. Liu Shuo's next words were even more merciless.

“In short, the path to success of geniuses cannot be replicated by ordinary people.”

Hua'er suddenly realized, "So that's what he meant. I understand. He just doesn't want to say it too bluntly and hurt us."

Li Jianye: “That’s right!”

slowly:……

She didn't mean it that way, but they insisted on understanding it that way. So let them be. They weren't very important people anyway. Being misunderstood is the fate of those who express themselves.

Seeing the city gate right in front of them, everyone felt more relaxed because Ranran had told them her speculation before.

The mastermind behind the King Bug incident is not in the Gem Flower City, at least he is far away from the main city.

Because the mastermind behind the scenes is a human being who desires money and wealth, that human's flesh and blood means that the mastermind is also the prey that the worm wants to host, so this person should not be stupid enough to approach the worm's activity range.

Otherwise, before accumulating enough wealth, he will become a bug who has no idea what wealth means... This person is definitely unwilling to do that.

Now the group of eight can leave the city, which means they have taken the first step towards the truth.

But no one expected that the Gem Flower City was not a completely empty city.

There are still "people" stationed in this city.

Lei Zicai pushed Zhang Peng across the city gate, and a huge stone axe fell from the sky!

Everyone was shocked. Before they could react, Lei Zi's face changed and he pushed Zhang Peng away with force.

The giant axe just brushed past Zhang Peng's back, but in the next second it cut off Lei Zi's two hands.

The blood gushed out like a fountain.

The whole world seemed to turn bloody.

Ranran heard the shouts of the crowd, she looked up and saw the owner of the giant axe struggling forward, stretching out his big hand to catch the giant axe that was thrown out.

The man was huge, as big as a mountain, and every step he took on the ground seemed to shake the earth.

He is one of the guards standing on both sides of the city gate.

The dark eyes seemed to be burning with dim flames inside the heavy armor that wrapped them tightly.

While running, Ranran couldn't hear his breathing.

Apart from Ran Ran, Li Jianye was the first to react. He shouted loudly, hoping to wake up the others. All the equipment in the storage space was taken out one by one and thrown to the Iron Guards without any cost.

However, the Iron Guard seemed unaffected... and walked towards Ranran without hesitation.

“…It doesn’t work! How could it be…” Li Jianye’s face turned pale. He looked at Lei Zi who had lost his balance and fell to the ground, his hands shaking uncontrollably.

"Master, I'm fine, I..."

Lei Zi fell to the ground in a panic, enduring the severe pain. The wound from which blood was gushing out was piercing the gravel-covered ground. He was sweating profusely from the pain, but he was still trying to comfort Li Jianye.

But the iron guard passing by him did not intend to give him the chance to finish his words. He waved his hand and the knife fell.

Under the horrified gaze of the crowd, Lei Zi fell in a pool of blood, twitched twice, and there was no more life.

From the waist down, his body was split into two, and his internal organs flowed all over the ground along with the bright red liquid.

Smelling the strong smell of blood in the air, Ranran suddenly felt like vomiting.

Zhang Peng was so frightened that his face turned pale. He was closest to Lei Zi and the boiling blood splattered all over him.

His mouth opened wide, but no sound came out. While the iron guards stood in front of Ranran, Zhang Peng panted, climbed up from the ground using his hands and feet, grabbed Jingjing's hand and was about to run.

"What are you doing?!" Jingjing hadn't recovered from the cruel scene before her eyes, and she shook off Zhang Peng's hand.

"Run! Idiot!" Zhang Peng did not delay at all. Even though his legs were weak, he did not forget to flee madly from this hellish scene.

Holding Jingjing was his subconscious reaction, but Jingjing's decision not to follow him did not affect his choice.

Only a fool would think of fighting a monster like that!

Abyss items are useless! This is a desperate situation!
