There's definitely something wrong with this murder mystery game-Chapter 748 - 640: Daily Scolding at Script Space

Chapter 748 -640: Daily Scolding at Script Space

Xu Shuo emerged from the darkness.

He caught sight of Luo Kai beside him with his eyes tightly shut, a flash of ice-green light crossing his brow, and inside his Mind Network, Luo Kai’s entire brain seemed to glow green.

Realizing something, Xu Shuo: “…”

The god of the Star Guild seemed a bit casual, just picking up anyone they saw.

After a long while,

Luo Kai opened his eyes, then immediately looked at Xu Shuo with a face full of grief and indignation.

...

It was you, kid, you drew the god over and made me lose my faith!

Xu Shuo didn’t need to read minds to get his point and felt a rare pang of guilt before skillfully deflecting: “Have you joined the Star Guild?”

Luo Kai tugged at the corner of his mouth: “Can you touch your heart and say that again, isn’t this your fault?”

Xu Shuo insisted righteously: “What does this have to do with me, I never joined the Star Guild, and if you don’t believe it, go to the Star Guild and look it up, my name is definitely not there.”

Luo Kai said expressionlessly: “I haven’t joined the Star Guild either.”

That’s right, neither of them had joined the Star Guild.

The scene suddenly fell silent.

But this mishap made Luo Kai understand why Xu Shuo previously claimed he hadn’t joined the Star Guild, yet still possessed the guild’s marking sensation.

There’s no need for any assessment or Divine Descending Ceremony because there’s another way to join—forced membership.

Xu Shuo coaxed gently: “Anyway, now that you’ve got the mark, you might as well try joining. I heard their guild has free skills that core members can learn. Plus, when facing the Abyss erosion, you get help from a god and can enhance your strength. It’s not a bad deal, actually.”

Luo Kai looked at him and said darkly: “Then why don’t you join?”

Xu Shuo maintained his stance: “I’m used to going at it alone.”

“I’m used to going at it alone, too.”

“But you often come looking for cooperation with me.”

“…”

Luo Kai felt this conversation was eerily familiar and blurted out: “Don’t tell me you’re thinking of letting me go in to learn the skills and then just come to you ready-made, right?”

If there wasn’t something in it for him, this guy would hardly make a complete sentence on a normal day, let alone patiently talk this much!

Clearly, he wanted to reap the rewards without lifting a finger!

Xu Shuo: Talking nonsense.

Though players with a Divine Mark could join the guild directly, Luo Kai thought about it and decided not to make contact with the Star Guild for now.

After all, it was just a mark at the moment, possibly without any compulsory thought control; leaving it aside could offer some consolation.

Otherwise, if joining involved some ceremony, that sounded pretty bad.

“Let’s wait and see,” he said with a helpless rub of his brow.

Xu Shuo, naturally, didn’t continue to entice him. Although he had witnessed the Star Guild’s formidable power, he shared Luo Kai’s view on powers that required faith in exchange.

So, the two who were forcibly branded left the mark—which many peripheral members of the Star Guild envied—out of their minds.

After the Abyss Creature was purified by the “truth,” the progress bar was already full.

The environment around them began to change. The old, outdated roller coaster equipment vanished amidst blurry illusions, as sights of the real world reemerged.

A card appeared in Luo Kai’s hand.

The image on the card depicted a roller coaster soaring into the clouds, but the atmosphere was gloomy and dark, the sky’s endpoint pitch-black, filled with oppressive and eerily silent danger.

In fancy script, the name of the script was written at the bottom—”Roller Coaster Murder Case”.

Xu Shuo glanced at it and raised an eyebrow: “Nice name, what level is the script?”

Luo Kai, brimming with cooperative experience, already heard the underlying meaning in his words. Without saying anything, he directly took out his credit card and transferred the reward to Xu Shuo’s account.

——”Do you care about the level of the Script Space?”

——”You clearly only care about how much money you got!”

Xu Shuo, satisfied, put away his credit card. After glancing at the balance, his satisfaction grew even more.

Luo Kai indeed knew the score, mindful that the last blow to the Boss was all his doing, so this time the split was forty-sixty.

If the other party had dared to secretly dock his points, it wouldn’t just be a question of whether they would cooperate again next time, but also whether the other party would even be able to find another Script Space extraction!

…

The real world.

Mingzhu Fun World had already been sealed off.

Los stood on a large tree, watching the roller coaster through the branches. After the area calmed down, he emotionlessly pushed his glasses up his nose.

“The Fifth Palace really knows how to join in the fun.”

Showing off that kind of power under his watch was practically like showing off on purpose.

If asked whether he felt any annoyance, he could only contradict his true feelings by saying he didn’t.

But in the end, the matter had been resolved. Los, after quietly observing for a while, turned and left, following the trail of Angela’s qi after detecting it nearby.

If he said he was here to capture Angela, then he must capture Angela.

…

Around the roller coaster.

The dark storm obscured all visibility, and the people standing outside the cordon had no idea what was happening inside. Suddenly, the rampaging darkness just disappeared without a trace.

There was no warning, no gradual process, just as though a part of space had been wiped clean, revealing the peaceful roller coaster to everyone’s sight.

Shao Dandan, waiting outside, looked at the two unharmed individuals with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

——”What kind of power does Xu Xi’s brother actually have?”

She had already secretly searched in the Script Space. The Player’s Handbook indicated that this person was just a level two player, yet the power displayed by the other party didn’t quite match up to that of a level two.

But she didn’t dare to approach and ask. The disparity in strength prevented them from standing together in battle and also from having a conversation as equals.

At that moment, the two emerged from the roller coaster.

Shao Dandan noticed their gaze and saw the young man looking at the bronze mirror in her hand. She silently moved her hand behind her back, and in the next moment, she stowed the mirror away.

Since the Abyss’s crisis was resolved, there was no need to be ready for battle at all times.

Xu Shuo also calmly withdrew his gaze, listening to Luo Kai explaining the incident to the Safety Bureau beside him. Feeling that there was no issue, he planned to leave.

After all, public relations had always been Luo Kai’s responsibility.

But just before leaving, Xu Shuo suddenly changed direction and walked toward a rest area not far away.

Shao Dandan kept her eyes on him.

She saw the young man scan the flowerbed behind the rest area. Right after that, the ground in front of him began to loosen, but it had only gotten halfway when the movement suddenly stopped. At the same time, his body underwent some subtle changes.

After the Abyss Domain was lifted, the powers granted by the Player’s Handbook were retracted as well.

Xu Shuo: “…” Damned Script Space!

He had wanted to take advantage of the remaining power to dig up the thing buried deep underground, but he was just a bit too late.

With no other choice, he could only pull out a fruit knife from his pocket and continue digging in the earth under Shao Dandan’s shocked gaze.

Since Alpha had delivered the object to the surface, after Xu Shuo shoveled away the top layer of soil, he saw the pretty little drifting bottle, as beautiful as ever.

It was the item he had just buried in the Subspace.
