Chapter 189: Chapter 160: The Special Special Room (Extra Update)

"Pay attention, Kazuma-kun, Gangban Rihuan is dead."

Gammon Kazuma looked at the message in the private chat, still feeling a bit confused.

"Just... dead?"

Gangban Rihuan just died like that?

How long has it been?

Are the players in channel 879 that fierce?

Moreover, why?

Why did they kill Gangban Rihuan?

Did they dislike him?

That shouldn’t be the case...

People from Dragon Country may not excel in other aspects, but they are generally tolerant.

Or did Gangban Rihuan do something so outrageous that it was discovered?

Did he just dismiss Watanabe Shunyo’s warning this morning as nothing?

Hmm.

Indeed, this guy was an undercover agent sent by Fudao Island, causing trouble for High Celestial Plain in secret was his job.

But...

Causing trouble is one thing, how did he get himself killed in the process?

Are all your Fudao people so brave?

And why is it that it wasn’t Watanabe Shunyo contacting me?

Gammon Kazuma double-checked; the person who sent him the private message was not Watanabe, who came to channel 879 with him, but his superior—Kato Junwa.

"Even I and Watanabe Shunyo hadn’t discovered that Gangban Rihuan was dead, yet Kato Junwa knew?"

Gammon Kazuma pondered, estimating that the other side had an insider within Fudao Island too.

Just like himself, contacted by the opposition on the second day of the game, arranged to join High Celestial Plain.

"Who exactly was this Kato Junwa on Earth?" Gammon Kazuma was puzzled, as the other side seemed to have all contact details for Nihong Country’s spies.

Yet, he had never heard of such a person during his time on Earth?

His superior had always been a woman named Meikawa Kuko, who inexplicably became Kato Junwa after the game started?

"Alright, I got it."

Gammon Kazuma waited a long time before responding with a private message, his mind now incredibly chaotic.

Because he didn’t know through what means the 879 players uncovered Gangban Rihuan’s evil deeds.

Nor through what methods they pinpointed him precisely.

Did they happen to encounter him during exploration?

That’s ridiculous!

He’d explored eight rooms today without bumping into a single player, yet Gangban Rihuan’s luck was that bad?

"Or was it Kunlun’s doing?"

Gammon Kazuma remembered the player team he encountered when entering 879.

This was the only possibility he could think of.

Kunlun had set their sights on them!

"Two more explorations left, save them just in case, and if someone comes to this room, leave immediately!"

After thinking for a long time, Gammon Kazuma had only this one method to respond to emergencies.

There was no choice; although he was valued at High Celestial Plain, his rank was not high, and many advanced items were just beyond his reach.

Even a Gold Level shield had to be slyly taken from things Lin Feng gave him, highlighting just how broke he was.

"Should I tell Watanabe Shunyo about this?"

Hiding in the capsule residence, Gammon Kazuma decisively gave up on this idea.

Whether Watanabe Shunyo had any items to leave channel 879 was uncertain, but at least he wanted to keep Watanabe Shunyo to verify if someone was targeting them.

"Stay alert tonight, and if even Watanabe Shunyo is killed, I’ll have to ask Kato Junwa for a tool to leave this channel."

Confirming that he could quickly open the door and swipe his card to leave here in case of an attack, Gammon Kazuma didn’t even dare to close the door of his residence, squatting near the door as he lit a fire to start grilling.

He had positioned himself very accurately; the distance from the capsule residence to the metal door was less than three meters, an eye blink away from escape.

...

Day seven, the eighth room.

Li Zheng had set off again; the benefits from the last few explorations today were rather ordinary, basically not finding rooms with Silver Level creatures.

But this time was alright...

There were two Silver Level Power Cores, which equaled energy of ten tubes of Silver Level Genetic Potion when converted.

"Four hours left until nightfall, if I could enter another instance it would be great, gathering more Power Cores is the best." Li Zheng hoped the last two explorations would bring him some surprises.

On the other side, Phoenix Mountain was avoiding Yu Xiaoyu, trying to prevent her from getting too chummy, while glancing at her large conscience, the brooch pinned to it.

He was particularly puzzled, "Why does Li Zheng want me to figure out the meaning of Yu Xiaoyu’s brooch, without asking directly? Especially... why tell me to ask at night?"

His sneaky behavior couldn’t be hidden from the other three at all, blatantly staring at Yu Xiaoyu’s conscience.

The three people’s reactions varied.

Yu Xiaoyu proudly stood with her conscience, feeling triumphant, "Phoenix Mountain brother indeed still likes my type! Tonight I must win him over, I won’t let Sister Yan take all the glory!"

Yan Guang looked at Phoenix Mountain, then at Yu Xiaoyu, and then down at herself, pondering, "No good, I still fall short... by two sizes, I need to think of a way to catch up, otherwise Phoenix Mountain will be swept away by that little vixen!"

Hmm, maybe ask Zhouzhou what to eat to supplement conscience!"

Feng Qiwu walked at the back, deliberately giving the three youngsters space to interact, looking satisfied.

"Damn! Has the pig I raised finally learned to root for cabbage?

I’ll think of a way tonight, strike while the iron’s hot, and let Xiaoyu too...

No, no, can’t let Xiaoguang feel neglected, I should let both of them spend the night in Phoenix Mountain’s room!

As long as the little rascal bags Xiaoyu too, tomorrow morning this old man should take his leave."

...

Li Zheng, after probing several doors without finding high-value rooms, randomly picked and swiped a card.

Before leaving, he suddenly had a feeling as if something bad was about to happen.

"Is someone plotting against me?"

He scratched his head and walked into the light screen.

Just after entering the ninth room, before he could see what was inside clearly, he received a private message.

Without rushing to check, Li Zheng found the direction of the Bronze creature in the room, took out the Daiyu Spear, and decisively eliminated it after aiming.

Only then did he open the private chat panel.

"Huh? It’s Ye Kai?" After reading the specific information, Li Zheng paused slightly.

"The instance finally came!"

Indeed, the information Ye Kai sent was an invitation to a special room.

However, this special room was quite... special.

It wasn’t the cooperative exploration type of room that Li Zheng was familiar with.

But a "competition room."

Requiring four players of similar combat power to enter it for a competition, with the final winner receiving the reward.

And the reward was quite enticing.

A random draw for a Diamond Level item!

Li Zheng certainly wouldn’t let this pass, immediately accepting the invitation and asking, "Who else did you invite?"

Ye Kai replied: "My sister and Chu Xiao, you decide the last one?"

In channel 879, Ye Kai was only slightly closer to Chu Xiao, being generally not very close with others.

Even contacting Li Zheng this time was Ye Yuan’s suggestion; otherwise, he was considering inviting Phoenix Mountain.

As Ye Yuan put it: "He’s busy enjoying life’s little pleasures, why bother him?"

That one line was enough to change Ye Kai’s mind.

He certainly didn’t want to be forced to watch Phoenix Mountain and Yan Guang being lovey-dovey.

Li Zheng thought for a bit and replied, "I’ll talk to Zhan Zhouzhou."

This was a perfect chance for Li Zheng to discuss establishing an organization with them during the meet-up.

Of course, he mainly wanted to recruit Ye Kai and Zhan Zhouzhou.

After all, one possessed the Hunter’s Compass, and the other belonged to the "invincible" layer in terms of potential.

As for Chu Xiao and Ye Yuan...

Li Zheng felt, they were somewhat lacking.
