Yang Chenjin’s tone carried a hint of self-blame.
Yang Chenyan remained silent, without saying anything or defending himself. He silently went downstairs and entered the fog outside the villa.
Anyone entering the fog, except for Yang Wenmin, would be attacked. Even the direct line of the Yang family was no exception.
The monstrous fusion creature was no longer afraid of anyone in the Yang family, instinctively wanting to devour them all.
Unless they held Yang Wenmin’s token.
However, that token can only be obtained by those responsible for suppressing that monster.
If being punished, one had to withstand the attacks of the fusion creature on their own.
Yang Wenmin glanced at Yang Chenjin indifferently and then spoke to the bodyguard beside him, “In the next few days, have the doctor give him water.”
After saying this, Yang Wenmin left the room.
Yang Chenjin turned to look at the young man on the bed, his eyes showing a hint of regret and pity.
Finally, he followed Yang Wenmin out of the room.
Ruan Qing sighed in relief in his heart. Having the doctor feed him water meant nothing too bad would happen.
Ruan Qing returned to the male player’s body with ease.
The collateral members of the Yang family, including the servants, possessed formidable combat capabilities even during the day.
Due to the theft incident, the servants conducted a thorough search, leaving virtually no corner unchecked.
However, the resources of the Yang family were limited, and such investigations always had loopholes.
Almost none of the players were caught, including the male player possessed by Ruan Qing.
However, the players scattered on their way to hide because hiding in one place was too obvious a target.
Ruan Qing glanced at the location of the male player and then observed the situation outside the window, roughly deducing that this place should be near the edge of the villa close to the back mountain.
After finding a hiding spot, the male player ‘slept’ away.
Ruan Qing immediately took control of the body.
Now, the investigation in the main villa is undoubtedly rigorous, and it’s definitely inconvenient to retrieve the tablet.
Nightfall swiftly arrived.
This time, Ruan Qing deliberately chose a room without windows, fearing that the blood-red tentacles might see him and go mad again.
Time unknowingly reached ten o’clock in the evening.
Regardless of how thorough the investigation was during the day, the collateral members of the Yang family lost consciousness at night.
It was the most dangerous time, but also the best opportunity.
Ruan Qing went directly back to the main villa of the Yang family and took the tablet hidden between the bed seams.
Then, he ran to the place where he and Shen Baiyue fell together before.
He wanted to go down again.
Ruan Qing walked to the stairs where he fell initially, fumbling for a while before finding the switch on the wall.
The switch wasn’t in the corner but at a height of over a meter on the wall.
In the position they fell, there was absolutely no way to touch it.
Obviously, Shen Baiyue deliberately brought him down back then.
Ruan Qing wasn’t too surprised.
He quickly pressed the switch and then entered the basement level. This time was different from the last.
This time, Ruan Qing no longer appeared as someone incapable of running.
Although the blood shadows still seemed to perceive his location, Ruan Qing could quickly change positions when the blood shadows were about to catch up.
If he couldn’t outrun it, he would let the robot deal with the blood shadows.
As Ruan Qing ran, he observed the basement floor, trying to find out where the Yang family’s formation was.
But after searching in circles, he couldn’t find it.
After a thorough search, Ruan Qing finally lowered his head and looked at the floor tiles.
He used a small knife to pry open the floor.
It was just ordinary cement underneath.
The formation recorded in the documents was supposed to be on the basement floor.
But there was no formation here.
Either he hadn’t found it, or this place... wasn’t the basement floor.
Ruan Qing knocked on the floor.
The sound seemed quite solid, giving no indication of any underground layers.
But Ruan Qing had some suspicions that the formation might be right underneath this ground.
If it’s truly beneath, finding an entrance would undoubtedly be very challenging.
Blowing it up would create a significant disturbance.
Ruan Qing thought for a moment and tapped the tablet. The ‘god creation’ formation and the ‘summoning’ formation, although similar, were different.
In other words, if the Yang family wanted to ‘create a god,’ they would undoubtedly have to modify the formation.
Perhaps they had already modified it.
But Yang Chenyan and Yang Chenjin couldn’t have tampered with the formation in advance.
After all, the two of them obviously made that decision when they were certain Ruan Qing wouldn’t live much longer.
So, tracking these two might directly lead to finding out where the formation was.
Ruan Qing manipulated the spider and went directly to the fifth floor.
No one was on the fifth floor anymore.
Yang Chenyan and Yang Chenjin had disappeared.
He was obviously a step too late.
It seemed that he could only wait until tomorrow night. Fortunately, there was still time.
Ruan Qing recalled the spider and then had both the spider and the robot observe the surroundings.
He then drew a summoning formation on the ground with blood.
Ruan Qing wanted to try the summoning formation from the <First High School> instance, to see if he could summon that ‘god.’
Clearly, it was not possible.
Indeed, these two instances were not connected, and they were not the same ‘god.’
But the summoning arrays of these two ‘gods’ were remarkably similar.
Was it that the main game system was lazy in designing summoning formations, so they were all similar?
Or was there some kind of connection between these ‘gods’?
Ruan Qing couldn’t judge.
Because he missed the movements of the two tonight, Ruan Qing patiently waited for a day.
Fortunately, nothing happened during the day.
This time, Ruan Qing squatted on the fifth floor before ten o’clock.
Sure enough, he saw the two coming out.
Ruan Qing carefully controlled the spider to follow them all the way, from the basement to the real basement.
Indeed, the real basement was right below that basement.
As soon as the spider followed down, a blood-red light appeared on Ruan Qing’s screen.
It was a summoning formation identical to that in <First High School>.
Just as Ruan Qing carefully followed the two with the spider, the screen changed.
Suddenly it rose a lot, and it continued to rise.
Then the picture turned, and on the screen appeared a stern and handsome face.
It was... Yang Wenmin.
When Yang Wenmin’s face appeared on the tablet, Ruan Qing’s scalp tingled, and his body hair stood on end.
As if Yang Wenmin had seen him through the spider.
The next moment, the spider was directly crushed by Yang Wenmin.
The image also completely disappeared from Ruan Qing’s tablet.
Moreover, in that instant of disappearance, Ruan Qing clearly saw Yang Wenmin’s figure also vanish.
Just like how he disappeared in the study back then.
Ruan Qing’s breath paused, and his heart raced.
Yang Wenmin wouldn’t be... coming over, right?
