Infinite: Dawn Game

Chapter 679 Take away

Exquisite and luxurious walls, expensive corridor chandeliers and ceilings... these things, which were brand new not long ago, have somehow become dilapidated.

The strong smell of seawater and mutton mingled together, making it nauseating and difficult to breathe.

Shi Yuanwen felt a little irritated. He silently checked the cooldown time of his talent skill over and over again, and finally closed his eyes, no longer looking at the dilapidated walls and... those "guests" who had been corrupted.

Even Mr. Yao, who was in charge, was now corrupted into a sheep-headed, human-bodied form—the good thing being that the bits and pieces of flesh on his body had "grown" back.

But its bizarre appearance—a sheep's head and a human body—still looks terrifying.

Several men carried Shi Yuan hurriedly toward the stairwell leading to the third-floor cabin. The burly male guest at the head of the group even asked the others if they had prepared their belongings.

what?

Shi Yuan knew without even thinking what he was asking, even with his eyes closed.

What else could it be?

What else could it be besides the sharp objects used to torture and kill the "sacrifices"?

Shi Yuan pursed his lips, constantly hypnotizing himself that it was okay, it was okay, it was okay. It was just a substitute death, not a real death, so nothing would happen... But how could a person be completely unaware when facing the prospect of being "killed"?

Even poultry that senses they are about to be slaughtered will flee in terror, let alone humans.

Even though Shi Yuan tried her best to suppress it, her trembling eyelids and limbs still betrayed her fear at that moment.

She... was afraid that she was really dead.

But wasn't her innate skill originally activated to save someone?

Shi Yuan, don't be afraid.

Shi Yuan silently recited several sentences in his heart, repeatedly replaying his past with Wang Xiaoling in his mind, his heart trembling with pain.

I will live on... I will definitely live on...

Shi Yuan's trembling eyelids and limbs gradually calmed down. This time, she behaved exactly like someone who was truly asleep.

"..."

Only when the footsteps outside the corridor were almost inaudible did He Lingling and Sun Qin, who were pretending to be asleep on the bed, suddenly open their eyes.

Rear.

Sun Qin stared blankly at the dark ceiling, muttering, "What...what are we going to do now...what are we going to do now..."

Her mind was a jumbled mess, like a viscous, confused, and swollen paste being stirred.

No one can accept that another person will trade their life for their own.

Sun Qin was just an ordinary person. Even though she was happy that she didn't have to die, she was still mostly filled with guilt and unease about Shi Yuan "dying" in her place.

This really works!

"Follow me."

He Lingling had already rolled out of bed and was quickly putting on her shoes when her calves suddenly went weak, and she barely managed to stay upright by bracing herself on the floor.

Sun Qin was startled by the noise of her nearly falling, and hurriedly said as she disembarked:

Did you fall anywhere? Did you fall anywhere?

Sun Qin quickly put on her shoes and went to help He Lingling, saying urgently:

"We can't get hurt again, what will happen to Shi Yuan if we get hurt... No, no, no, we can't get hurt..."

Out of unease and guilt, she blurted out a string of words, which sounded to He Lingling as if Xu Han had reappeared.

"..." He Lingling's temple throbbed, and she stood up with Sun Qin's help, shaking her head: "I'm not injured, I just slept for several days and my legs are a little sore from not moving them for a while."

Sun Qin breathed a huge sigh of relief. "That's good, that's good. Let's go help right away!"

Boom!

A knock came from outside the closed door, causing the two girls inside to freeze in place as they were about to step out.

Dong-dong-dong——

The person continued knocking on the door slowly and deliberately, as if they were teasing the two of them, and the knocking was not very forceful.

"……who is it?"

Sun Qin couldn't believe that at this point, a strange NPC would still come looking for them. "Is this guy really that dedicated?!"

"..."

After a brief pause, He Lingling continued walking forward. Just as she reached for the doorknob, Sun Qin, realizing what was happening, quickly grabbed her arm.

"Should we really open the door...?"

Sun Qin's face was frighteningly pale: "What if, what if we can't deal with those strange NPCs outside... Shi Yuan, Shi Yuan is still waiting for us to collect her body, no, her body... We can't let anything happen to her... How will we collect Shi Yuan's body if something happens to her..."

Seeing that Sun Qin's eyes were red as she spoke, He Lingling sighed helplessly:

"Who else but Wu Huimin would be knocking on the door at this hour?"

Wu Huimin?!

Sun Qin's throat tightened: "Wu Huimin?"

Wasn't Wu Huimin already "replaced" by Shi Yuan?

Click.

He Lingling turned the lock on the door, and the knocking sound from someone who sounded like Wu Huimin outside the door immediately stopped.

"..."

In the silence of thunder and rain, He Lingling pursed her lips and opened the door.

Sun Qin couldn't help but pull her back a step.

Outside the door, Wu Huimin, dressed in a white dress, tilted her head and looked at them. Blood kept flowing from the huge gash on her neck, staining the fabric in front of her body red little by little.

The overwhelming stench of blood made Sun Qin's face turn even paler, while He Lingling remained expressionless as she stared at Wu Huimin, feigning surprise.

"Huimin? Huimin, you're only getting back now?"

Wu Huimin, standing outside the door, smiled at her, her lips widening as she called out, "Huimin!"

He Lingling stepped forward and grabbed her arm, saying urgently:

"Huimin! Shi Yuan is nowhere to be found! We saw her when we were sleeping! We woke up in the middle of the night and found she was gone! Huimin, Huimin, you've been on this ship the longest, tell me, tell me, where did Shi Yuan go?! Where did she go?"

Sun Qin: "..."

Wu Huimin, whose arm was grabbed: "..."

After staring blankly for a few seconds, Sun Qin immediately lowered her head and pretended to wipe away tears. Wu Huimin's ever-expanding smile froze on her face because of He Lingling's sudden "help."

"...Shi Yuan..."

Wu Huimin looked at He Lingling, her eyes, which had turned into horizontal pupils, slowly narrowed, like a fleshy slit slowly closing.

"You mean, you're going to find Shi Yuan?"

He Lingling nodded, and Sun Qin nodded even more, tears welling up in her eyes. She said in a hoarse voice:

"We...we can't find her, we can't find her..."

This genuine expression of emotion clearly "moved" Wu Huimin. Wu Huimin smiled slowly, her horizontal pupils filled with intense malice and countless indescribable complex emotions, and nodded.

"Then I'll take you there."

He Lingling's heart skipped a beat, but her face remained surprised: "Huimin, do you know where Shi Yuan is?"

"Of course I know."

Wu Huimin chuckled, and the blood flowed faster and more from the gash in her throat.
