Star Trace Gate

In a room that looked like an auditorium, Xiao Shuai and Yin Hu were looking at the two corpses, completely stunned.

They had long been suspicious of the old cadre, so his death did not bring them any emotional impact, at most they were shocked. But Fatty Tan was different. He had been taking good care of everyone since he entered this star gate. He was also cheerful and loved to joke...

Not to mention the distant past, just one day ago, Ren Ye and the other two tricked Tan Pang into the bathroom and interrogated him. Although the other party was a little angry, he also cooperated by taking off his clothes and talking about his guesses with laughter and anger.

After entering this retrospective world, Xiao Shuai and Tan Pang jointly pursued Pan Lianrong's clues, and were taken care of by each other many times.

He had a really good personality, never impatient, always eloquent, like a warm and cheerful social expert. But now he was lying here coldly, his back was stabbed, and his body was struck by lightning like dry charcoal.

Xiao Shuai's head was buzzing and he was at a loss. He just stood there blankly, not saying a word.

[Warm reminder: There are still ten minutes left before leaving the secret area of ​​the zoo. It is pitch black in the main building. It is difficult for you to see others, and it is also difficult for others to see you. Perhaps, you can do something secretly...]

"Fuckin' bastard."

When Yin Hu heard this hint, he couldn't help cursing: "Heaven is cruel here, and has been leading us to fight among ourselves and kill each other."

He was absolutely right. This Star Gate was really extreme. Whether it was the mission setting mechanism or the reward rules for players, it seemed to be leading everyone to infighting. It was as if it was saying that only by killing others could you really widen the gap and put yourself in an absolute leading position.

"brush!"

While Yinhu's shout was still echoing, Ren Ye suddenly stood up and said gloomily, "There are only ten minutes left. Yinhu, come with me to check the body, and Xiaoshuai check the surroundings to see if there is anything unusual..."

Yin Hu turned around and asked in confusion: "The situation here is clear at a glance, what else do we need to investigate?"

In the darkness, Ren Ye stared at him and said word by word: "He is our friend! Even if the scene is obvious at a glance, we still need to know how he died, right?!"

"...Okay." Yinhu nodded heavily.

"Xiao Shuai, go check around."

Ren gave the order very calmly and walked over to Fatty Tan.

His expression seemed calm, but in fact he was not at peace inside. In fact, his emotions were surging like a storm.

For Ren Ye, Fat Tan is not only a comrade-in-arms who has shared life and death with him in this star gate, but also a powerful competitor.

As he himself said, he is smart and sociable, and everyone likes him.

From the secret room killing mechanism to the Changsheng Temple, to the Tiangong Building, and now the backtracking secret realm, he and Ren Ye have led the team to advance and escape from difficulties several times, and they can be regarded as friends of life and death. However, in the gameplay and mechanism of the Star Gate, they must safeguard their own interests and sprint to the end of victory, and they all want to be the only winning player.

Comrades and opponents, this must be full of contradictions...

However, with the blessing of both parties' character and personality, this contradiction disappeared.

fair play!

The two of them have always adhered to these four words, and it seems that neither of them has the heart to break it, which completely leads to infighting within the team and a fight between life and death.

Tiandao has reminded us several times that this place is very extreme and has been leading everyone to kill each other, but Fatty Tan and Ren Ye prefer to lead everyone to "land safely."

Before entering the door, the clever Fatty Tan should have guessed that Ren Ye had a big advantage, so he reminded him seriously: "Your advantage should be quite big, be sure to pay attention to safety, come on!"

Ren Ye squatted on the ground, seeming to still feel the warmth of these words, but the friend in front of him had become a cold corpse.

He suppressed the surging emotions in his heart, discarded all distracting thoughts, and while observing Tan Pang's body, he called out to the ghost boy with his consciousness: "Can you feel the ghosts of these two bodies?"

"Boss...my condolences."

The ghost boy sensed Ren Ye's emotions and comforted him first before adding, "The three souls and seven spirits of the two corpses here all have a disintegrating aura... as if they were shattered by soul-destroying objects."

"Unable to summon the soul?" Ren Ye asked.

"The soul has been scattered, so... naturally it is impossible to summon it back." The ghost boy replied.

The presence of a soul-scattering aura here meant that the two were completely dead. Although the supernatural power holders were already transcendent and not among the ordinary people, they could survive even if their bodies were broken or shattered, but if their souls were scattered, then there might be no possibility of resurrection.

Ren Ye looked at Tan Pang's body carefully and found that although he was lying on the ground, his right arm was stretched to the front of his head and his body looked very stiff.

"Snapped!"

He touched Tan Pang's right arm and found faint friction marks on the ground, which looked like the right arm of a person slowly moving after falling down.

"Big brother!"

Not far away, Xiao Shuai suddenly shouted, "I found a broken array eye stone."

"brush!"

Ren Ye suddenly turned around and looked at him: "Give it to me."

Xiao Shuai was holding a half-piece of stone engraved with complicated array patterns. He ran over and said urgently, "I sensed that there is a residual fluctuation of divine aura in the stone, but it is severely broken... It's like someone used a powerful divine attack to blast it apart alive."

"Do you understand the formation?" Ren Ye asked.

"I know a little bit." Xiao Shuai held half of the stone and said softly, "This should be a kind of space-isolating array eye stone. It has an array inside and array patterns outside. It can isolate a piece of space by guiding it with the power of the star source."

Ren also thought about it for a moment: "The last explosion was the sound of the formation's eye stone breaking?"

"That should be it." Xiao Shuai nodded and said, "This explains... why Captain Tan didn't make any sound when he was attacked by the old cadre. The old cadre only needs to place this stone here, and when Captain Tan gets close, he will use the power of the star source to activate it, and then the space here will be isolated. When both sides fought to the death, Captain Tan knew that he couldn't escape, so he blasted the stone to lure us here."

Ren was not in a hurry to respond to him. He just lowered his head and looked at the eye stone of the formation without saying a word.

Not far away, Yinhu's nose kept twitching as he sniffed the scene of death all the way back to the corridor leading to the auditorium.

He stood in the darkness, his back to the carved double doors, turned his head to look at both sides of the corridor, and whispered softly: "Why is the smell here so strong... and faintly extending outside the building...?!"

indoor.

After Ren Ye collected half of the formation eye stone, he lowered his head and continued to observe Fatty Tan's body.

He was lying on the ground with his right arm stretched over his head, looking very stiff.

Ren Ye looked slowly in the direction his right arm was pointing, but saw that at the end of that direction was the shattered mirror all over the ground.

"brush!"

He stood up suddenly, walked slowly to the side of the broken mirror, and began to search around it.

After searching for a while, he suddenly noticed that there was a faint light flickering in the shattered mirror.

"Um?!"

Ren Ye immediately leaned over, used his hands to pry away the mirror fragments that covered the faint light, lowered his head to take a closer look, but froze in his place.

He saw three drops of golden liquid, stained on the dusty ground, which looked very eye-catching.

What is this? !

Ren Ye frowned as he looked at the three drops of golden liquid that did not spread like mercury. He carefully picked up a lens, poked it lightly, and then put it next to his nose to smell it.

A light fragrance spreads...

Ren Ye frowned, turned around and shouted, "Yin Hu!"

"coming."

After the response sounded, Yin Hu came back not long after: "What's wrong?"

"You have a good nose, so let me ask you what this is?" Ren Ye said, pointing at the golden liquid.

Yinhu bent down, sniffed carefully, and said without hesitation: "It's blood."

"Blood?!"

Ren was also a little confused: "Are you sure this is blood?"

"Yes." Yin Hu said loudly: "In the Star Gate world, there are countless alien races. The blood of those with special physiques is also different from that of ordinary people, and often contains strange magical powers. This should be a special kind of blood."

"It was left here and should be used as a magical weapon."

"The old cadre still has such a weird trump card in his hand?

"...!"

Yinhu stood there, frowning and thinking.

Ren Ye looked at the three drops of blood, then at the stiffly extended right arm above Fatty Tan's head. His brain suddenly buzzed, and he instinctively murmured, "Blood of an alien race being used as a magic weapon?! Then why did Fatty Tan... point it out specifically?"

[Warm reminder: Countdown to evacuation, 30 seconds left. ]

The three of them were stunned when the reminder from the Heavenly Dao rang out.

"I...we are going out." Xiao Shuai shouted back.

"brush!"

At this moment, Ren Ye suddenly stood up, his pupils contracted sharply and said, "Fuck, we forgot one thing!"

"What?!" Yinhu asked.

"Come on, it's too late." Ren Ye looked at him and immediately urged: "Use your power of the wind to roll up all the items in this room, quickly!"

After a moment of surprise, Yin Hu did not ask any more questions. He just raised his arms and shouted, "A hurricane is coming!"

“Woooo…boom!”

As soon as the words came out, endless strong wind exploded from Yinhu's body and swept across the entire auditorium in an instant.

"Whizzing……!"

The dense debris in the room was picked up by the hurricane and floated in the air.

"brush!"

Ren also called out the Human Emperor Sword, lighting up the darkness with thousands of rays of light, then opened his Holy Eyes and quickly scanned the debris floating in the air.

Time passed minute by minute, sweat dripped down his forehead, and he stood there motionless.

【The last ten seconds.】

"9!"

"8!"

"7"

"...!"

"boom!"

The countdown ended, and the bodies of the three people instantly disappeared into the secret realm.

……

Cold, shaking, and an intense feeling of weightlessness came over me.

After an unknown amount of time, Ren Ye felt his feet touch the ground and he tried to open his eyes.

The endless darkness receded, and a dazzling white light flashed, stinging the eyes and causing pain.

He instinctively shielded it with his arm, and after a short while, the white light faded and the stinging sensation disappeared.

Turning his head and looking around, he found himself at the entrance of the zoo. Xiaoshuai and Yinhu were standing around him, and the street was full of chaos. Many people were shouting, "The bald guy is coming," "Run!" and so on.

After Yin Hu came to his senses, he immediately turned his head to look at Ren Ye and asked, "What were you looking at last, and why did you let me blow up all the broken things?"

Ren also stared at him and asked, "You just ran away from the scene, what did you do?"

"I followed the special smell and ran into the corridor, and found that the smell extended outside the building. But there was not much time to evacuate," Yin Hu said, "so I didn't dare to chase. I guess the old cadre should have entered the main building from the east side and intercepted Tan Pang halfway, so the smell was outside the building."

Ren Ye's eyes were red, and he asked again: "Does the old cadre have that smell?"

"Yes!" Yin Hu nodded. "The smell on him is obvious, but the whole room has that smell, and Fatty Tan also has it. I guess it was contaminated during the fight between the two sides."

"wrong."

Ren also shook his head and said, "...We just overlooked a fatal detail."

"what?"

Xiao Shuai asked.

"Both sides died, so where did the autobiography fragments and gold coins go?!" Ren Ye asked in return.

After the words fell, the two were stunned for a moment.
