Ning Su: “Then you need to ensure your sons and daughters don’t give him any items or weapons, so he remains a low-level player.”
Ling Xiao: “...”
Ning Su: “Let him be made a groom by Snowball. Let him be exceptionally recruited as a flower servant by the Holy Maiden, and let him be pinned down into a pile of corpses by Miss Driver.”
Ling Xiao: “Alright.”
Seeing Ning Su so relaxed, his eyes brightened slightly, and he said, “I have something to tell you.”
Ning Su immediately straightened up and looked at him.
Ling Xiao: “The system wants me to kill you. This instance is also targeting you.”
Ling Xiao didn’t actually want to tell Ning Su this.
He sat in the meeting room, silently listening to Lu Weiming angrily recount Ning Su’s past.
He came to the research institute, examined every lab and every experimental bed.
Piece by piece, he traced Ning Su’s past life.
If he reached the end of the world he had traced, constantly targeted and excluded, and even entering the infinite game, it’s easy to conclude that the system wanted to kill him.
This must be somewhat cruel for Ning Su.
But he knew Ning Su would find out. Rather than let him discover it himself, it was better to tell him in advance.
Ning Su: “I know this instance is targeting me.”
With Lu Weiming and the base leader, it was already obvious when it happened right as he was about to die.
He thought this was a punishment from the instance because he brought out two ghost masters and permanently closed an instance.
When he came out of the <Manman> instance, Shi Tianzhu had sternly warned him not to do this again, as it would be very dangerous.
Previously, 9277 would often pop out to remind him, but recently it hadn’t appeared for a long time, possibly having given up on reminding him.
Ning Su: “But I didn’t know the system wanted you to kill me.”
He covered his heart, blatantly threatening: “Will you kill me?”
“......”
Ling Xiao: “On the surface, we still need to make it look like I’m trying to kill you. Otherwise, the system will send more people to do it.”
Ning Su: “......”
He understood now. The system had ordered Ling Xiao to kill him, but Ling Xiao had been passive in his efforts, leading to the current situation.
Right now, Ling Xiao was still the leader of the group tasked with killing him. If Ling Xiao were too passive, the system might assign a new leader to the task.
Just as Ning Su was about to speak, a loud noise interrupted him.
A winged bird-man flew through the door and crashed onto the floor.
Before it could stop sliding, a large knife came down, slicing the bird-man in half.
The Human Pupa Master wiped the blood from her face. “Those human faction players don’t suffer at all! These things are even more troublesome than zombies.”
She turned to look at the door, where they were standing beside it.
She didn’t see them.
But she was already inside the room, indicating that the space couldn’t hold much longer.
Dragging her bloody knife, the Human Pupa Master walked towards them. “Where did that useless Ning Su go?”
Ning Su: “......”
As the Human Pupa Master approached them, Ling Xiao said to Ning Su, “Don’t be afraid.”
After the Human Pupa Master walked out of the door, Ning Su was pushed out. In that moment, he looked up and saw a layer of gentle light in Ling Xiao’s chaotic eyes, as if coming from a distant place.
Ning Su wasn’t afraid at all.
He had never been afraid when he was alone, and he wasn’t afraid now.
The system wanted to kill him but hadn’t done so directly, which meant it couldn’t or wouldn’t. So what was there to be afraid of?
As soon as Ning Su appeared, the Human Pupa Master’s knife came down.
“Human Pupa Master, it’s me!” Ning Su immediately crouched down, covering his head and shouting.
Human Pupa Master: “......”
She angrily said, “Where the hell have you been?”
Ning Su: “They were too scary, so I went to hide.”
Human Pupa Master: “......Useless!”
Useless Ning Su stood up. “I saw that the professor has strong regenerative abilities, maybe even some degree of regeneration. He’s hard to deal with.”
The Human Pupa Master said irritably, “Of course I know! I smashed his head once and chopped it off once, and he still didn’t die.”
Ning Su said, “All these deformed people outside listen to that professor, but I just discovered there are some deformed people in the lab that haven’t been released yet. Those might be out of his control.”
The Human Pupa Master laughed suddenly. “You’re quite clever.”
Ning Su smiled.
The Human Pupa Master swung his machete and split another deformed person. “Let’s go, take me there!”
Ning Su glanced back at the door behind him and led the Human Pupa Master to the lab at the end of the second floor.
The research institute was exactly the same as the one in Ning Su’s original world, and Ning Su knew it very well.
The lab at the end of the second floor was the lowest-level lab, where abandoned “specimens” awaiting disposal were kept.
They were to be disposed of because they were uncontrollable.
The Human Pupa Master switched from her machete to the large pupa canister and swung it at the iron door. The whole corridor shook, but the door didn’t budge.
To trap the uncontrollable deformed people of the institute, the door and walls were naturally not easy to break.
“Bang! Bang! Bang bang bang!”
The Human Pupa Master continued to smash the canister against the door.
The sticky fluid from the human pupae kept increasing, corroding the iron door with a “sizzling” sound.
The Black-clothed Arzan saw them trying to break the door from downstairs and threw the unkillable Lu Weiming up, saying, “See if he can open the door.”
“Move aside!”
The iron door was almost open when Ning Su heard the Black-clothed Azan’s words. He pulled the Human Pupa Master away and kicked the iron door open.
Lu Weiming was thrown to the second floor, heading straight for the Human Pupa Master. The Human Pupa Master backhanded him with a container, smashing him into the lab.
Lu Weiming, who had always been calm, suddenly turned pale. He didn’t dare to look back and scrambled forward on the ground.
A thick red tongue covered in tumors wrapped around his leg.
Several spider legs wrapped around his arms.
A giant snake head with a flicking tongue dangled from the ceiling, staring at him.
A zombie child giggled and jumped onto his back.
The Human Pupa Master suddenly laughed. “I understand now. Isn’t there a regenerative ability? If body parts are in different places, can you still recover if they’re eaten?”
“Ha.” She laughed happily, licking the corner of her purplish-red lips, “Let my human pupae have a little feast too.”
Ten human pupae crawled towards Lu Weiming, each sticky human head slithering on the ground like a snake approaching him.
Lu Weiming’s eyes finally widened in terror, reflecting the deformed biological experiments in the entire laboratory.
“Hee hee hee~”
One of them pressed the switch, and a cloud of blood burst open in the dark laboratory.
