Chapter Seventy-Nine: Hunting and Counter-Hunting

Du Shiyue will never forget what happened that night.

In the dim light, Jiang Zheng suddenly showed a flustered look that he had never seen before, as if he was fighting an invisible enemy.

Immediately afterwards, the lamppost next to him was inexplicably broken, and then there was an extra wound on his leg.

What was the last thing I saw in that chaos...... It is the sight of the headless Grim Reaper falling to the ground and wriggling.

Although the guy's head was cut off, he could still slowly squirm and splice the head back together on his own.

From that case, it can be seen that the Reaper is a creature that can travel to the real world and is not killed.

Or at least the damage of this level of decapitation can't kill it, and if you want to kill it, you have to find another way.

And its only goal of going to the real world is also clear, which is to find the sinner who escaped the execution and continue to play the game of cutting leeks.

It is difficult to say that the appearance of the Grim Reaper in reality is due to the original design of the Psychic Temple.

Or the confusion caused by the system being stupid by Jiang Zhengdian, or the impact caused by the forced escape of the use of ability.

But what is certain is that although this thing comes from the Temple of the Mind, the danger is definitely not limited to the Temple of the Heart.

One of such a dangerous thing was enough of a headache to remember, and now there were three of them at the same time.

When I thought of the three grim reapers, squatting in line under the dim street lamp, ready to line up to play the scene of "kissing, hugging and cutting off the head" with himself or Jiang Zheng.

Du Shiyue couldn't help but feel numb in her scalp, her hands and feet were cold, and she felt like she was soaked in ice water.

What to do? If you refresh one more Reaper every time you escape punishment, it will not be feasible to rely on the tactic of stacking trials by number of times.

Otherwise, let's not talk about how much impact the flood of death will have in the real world.

The mere fact that they are piled up in the castle will cause a huge hindrance to the next action.

But if you don't escape punishment, on the way to this trial....... How many times do we have to die to beat it?

As soon as she thought of the roof that was slowly pressed down from above between trials, Du Shiyue couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

Although he would not really die in the temple of the mind, the feeling of pain was very real.

Not only that, but according to Jiang Zheng, he also had a huge mental exhaustion after being killed by the Grim Reaper last time.

In addition to being thrown out of the hall in a daze, he also lay on Shen Yunyi's bed for several hours before coming back to his senses.

In other words, if there is no way to pass the trial accurately, this terrible encounter will have to be experienced many times in a short period of time.

This is only the first trial, and there are three more of the same trial.

In such a bad situation, I ...... Will I really be able to make it to the end of the game?

However, just as Du Shiyue was trembling slightly, a warm hand was placed on her back.

A warm heat came from that hand, which made the girl who was already chilling feel much better.

At this time, Du Shiyue turned her head and saw that the familiar face was showing a familiar smile towards her.

"Don't worry, no problem."

Although the current situation seems to be getting more and more troublesome, Jiang Zheng still smiled confidently:

"It's just that we can't escape execution at will, and what we have to do will not change, will it?"

His tone was still calm, making people feel that this guy was heartless.

But in this case, it also restored Du Shiyue's six gods and masterless hearts a lot.

I'm really convinced....... Sometimes you have to admire his thick nerves, but it's useful at times.

After breathing a sigh of relief, Du Shiyue looked at the Grim Reaper triplets who were "sitting in a row and playing with knives" over there, and shook her head and said:

"That being said, the next trials will have to be more cautious, and being squashed is no joke."

"I think so too, so the next trials have to be conducted in a different mode."

"A change of mode? How to change the method? ”

As soon as Du Shiyue's words fell, Jiang Zheng came to the gate of Xia Jian and smashed it directly with a punch.

Boast! With the help of his ability, the indestructible door was immediately punched out of the middle of a head-sized hole.

"That's it." After making a big hole, Jiang Zheng smiled at Du Shiyue and said, "I'll go in and start the trial in a while, you answer the questions outside, let's meet inside and outside." ”

Ay? Should the inside be combined with the outside? What he meant....... I don't come in the door? Answering questions outside?

Indeed, if Du Shiyue stays outside, she can also answer questions through the big hole in this door.

But the price is that Jiang Zheng has to stay alone inside, and he doesn't seem to have the intention of escaping execution.

Suddenly, Du Shiyue swallowed a mouthful of saliva and whispered:

"Are you going to ...... if you answer wrong? Just die in it? ”

"Well, until we find a way to kill the Grim Reaper, let's do it for the time being."

Jiang Zheng stretched as he spoke, and the expression on his face still looked very relaxed.

But Du Shiyue knew how much determination was hidden behind his ease.

Without using your abilities to escape, the cost of answering a question incorrectly is to be crushed into a wonton filling by the ceiling above your head.

Although you won't really die after being squashed, you can imagine with your ass how much mental trauma it will accompani.

But even so, Jiang Zheng will not flinch at all.

The next moment, he nodded happily to Du Shiyue, and just pushed open the door in front of him.

Prepare to go in and start this fourth round of trials, which is also almost certain to die.

The moment he walked inside, did he want to say that Jiang Zheng was afraid? That must still be a little scary.

But if you don't try it because you're afraid, such a cowardly move will make Jiang Zheng look down on himself.

After all, in Jiang Zheng's view, the entire package of broken things in the "Soul Palace" was caused by his own system, so he had to solve it by himself.

If someone has to bear something in the process, it should also be borne by oneself, not by one's peers.

Call....... Never mind....... Never mind...... Anyway, it's not really going to die...... Come a few times and get used to it.

But at the moment when Jiang Zheng hypnotized himself and stretched out his feet to enter the door.

A hand that suddenly reached out from behind grabbed the corner of his coat, firmly preventing the act.

After feeling the slight but firm resistance behind him, Jiang Zheng stopped, turned his head and smiled:

“...... What's wrong? Want to go to the toilet? I can wait for you for a moment. ”

"On your head....... I...... I can't do that. ”

"No way? Can't do it? ”

Looking at that familiar face, Du Shiyue took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:

"I can't think normally in this situation, so it's just pointless for you to go in and die."

Although Du Shiyue's action of holding Jiang Zheng also contained the sincerity of not wanting to see him suffer.

But this statement was also true, and she couldn't think normally in this situation.

The reason why Du Shiyue was able to be so calm and so neat in the past few times quickly found the answer in just three seconds.

One of the reasons for this is that she knows that even if she answers incorrectly, there will be no consequences.

Therefore, there is no psychological burden, and it is completely light, and the mentality is very good.

But this time, she knew that once she answered wrong, Jiang Zheng would become a wonton filling, so it was strange that her mentality could be good.

In fact, when she saw Jiang Zheng walking into the summer room, Du Shiyue felt that her heart was in her throat.

The whole chest was full of annoyance, cold sweat fell on his forehead, and he couldn't even breathe normally.

In this kind of speed quiz game with only three seconds to think, you need absolute calm.

Such a state is no longer a bad word that can be described, it is completely a state of giving for nothing.

To carry Jiang Zheng's life in such a state is too much of a burden for Du Shiyue.

After seeing the cold sweat on her forehead, Jiang Zheng waved his hands and sighed:

"In this case, we can only continue to escape execution by increasing the risk of death, but I don't know how many more will be added in that way, so I still have to be prepared."

“...... We do have to be prepared, but not for the increase of death, but for something else. ”

"Anything else? What do you mean......"

"Clearing, destroying, and killing the Grim Reaper, or at the very least, the preparation to imprison it and prevent it from running around the world, only by doing this, can our process of attacking the temple go smoothly."

Speaking of this, Du Shiyue's tone became cold, and her gaze at the other end of the corridor also had a hint of murderous aura.
