The Abyssal Garden: No Room for the Idle-Chapter 62 Su Qi Always Appears Where He Shouldn’t
"Pitiful…"
"Truly pitiful…"
"Completely unnoticed…"
"We are among you, yet no one knows."
"And now you won't be able to complete the so-called main mission, what awaits you is a dead end…"
"Brother Su."
Yeshou suddenly spoke up.
"Hm?" Su Qi looked at Yeshou, "What's up?"
"You help me keep an eye on our back."
"Okay, don't worry."
These mirrors aren't just part of the maze, some of them will suddenly attack the players or reach out and drag them away.
If one isn't careful, it's easy to encounter danger.
And very soon,
they ran out of road in front, Yeshou looked at the mirror in front of him, which surprisingly presented a mathematical problem: "...it's even calculus."
Su Qi pondered, "It seems we'll have to solve this problem to proceed."
Yeshou waited for two seconds, then smiled:
"No problem, I'll do it."
Su Qi nodded, "Okay, it's all yours."
Yeshou squatted there, beginning to write numbers on the mirror.
While writing, he also started a conversation.
"Brother Su is exceptionally reliable today, huh."
Su Qi paused, then said with a smile, "What's that? We're all teammates; of course, I have to fulfill my responsibilities."
He acted as if he was truly keeping watch for Yeshou, slowly approaching to guard against any sudden mirror attacks.
And just as Su Qi drew near from behind,
Yeshou tsked.
"Before, I told everyone that you, Brother Su, were a team player, but I didn't expect... someone actually took my words for real."
"?" Su Qi's figure faltered slightly, curious, "What do you mean, I..."
Yeshou cut him off mercilessly, "Politeness, sarcasm, resignation. In short, all social niceties, but of course... you might not understand these... after all..."
A flash of cold light struck from behind!
Yeshou's words carried a chill, "You're just a robot!"
And the next moment!
He spun around, his axe blocking a silver spike coming from behind!
A clashing "bang!" sound echoed!
Yeshou stared hard at the 'Su Qi' in front, whose hand had turned into silvery metallic liquid.
"You discovered me?" 'Su Qi' looked perplexed.
Yeshou sneered, "Setting aside everything else, Brother Su is someone who is never modest, never team-oriented, speaking with a pinch of jest artfully. You're not like him at all!"
'Su Qi' revealed a smile tinged with regret, eyes flickering, "As expected, humans are hard to understand. I thought I had imitated him perfectly, not missing a single action or expression. Yet, I'm still exposed?"

Yeshou's eyes turned cold as he said calmly, "You can mimic Brother Su's appearance, but you can't mimic his terrible personality. You're just trying to imitate Xi Shi's frown!"
"It should be... Dong Shi's frown," the robot corrected.
"Fuck! Is it so bad that I didn't study hard, and the real Brother Su wouldn't have me do calculus because, you see, I can't do it at all!"
With a roar, Yeshou swung his axe fiercely,
"Tell me now where the real Brother Su is!"
The robot, composed of liquid metal, began to revert to its original appearance, its cold mechanical exterior... its hands transformed into weapons as it fought emotionlessly, "That one called Su Buxian has been locked away in a previous area, and by now he's probably been torn to pieces."
Yeshou's expression shocked, "What have you done?"
Its eyes carried a cold indifference as its mechanical voice emitted, "I have set that entire area's system to emergency escape mode, the doors will not close, and I've cut the corridor's power, plunging it into darkness!"
"And all the abnormalities in Gate No.8 will step out of their rooms."
"His chances of escape are virtually zero!"
Yeshou's complexion changed; he knew all too well how terrifying the number and strength of Gate No.8's abnormalities were. If what this robot claimed was true, Su Qi's chances were slim.
"If that's the case," Yeshou gritted his teeth, "then you can go die!"
The things he had been writing on the mirror were not numbers, but the activation method for one of his Skills; he had been on guard all along!
And the next moment,
A blinding white light burst from the mirror, surging straight toward the robot!
"Boom!"
The terrifying wave of light directly shattered all the surrounding mirrors, and sent the robot flying, with half of its metallic body destroyed! The inner mechanisms were exposed! Liquid metal continuously repaired the damage,
emitting an electric "zzz" sound.
It was, after all, just a cargo management type robot. Although it had some fighting capabilities, its strength in combat wasn't strong.
And at that moment,
Night Guard's brow suddenly jumped, he saw something strange within the damaged inner mechanisms of the robot.
He was slightly stunned.
Had he seen wrongly?
It was during this moment of distraction,
that the robot suddenly activated the propulsion jets on its feet, smashing through a nearby mirror, and then escaped!
Its voice, ice-cold and devoid of emotion, followed:
"It's no use, all of you will be killed, one by one!"
"This is my task, Tianqi Star... has no reason to exist, it must become a land of pollution."
"Everything here, shall be given to..."
"Zzz."
The voice faded away!
And Night Guard, watching the shattered mirror return to its original state, said with a slight change in expression, that they must hurry to regroup and not allow the robot to fully repair and impersonate again!
And at that moment,
All the mirrors suddenly shattered!
Yun Zhantian held a blood-stained mirror shard, his body covered in minor injuries, and the middle-aged man next to him also seemed to have been through a battle, bearing wounds as well.
Certainly, they had just experienced a fight of considerable intensity.
Yun Zhantian said with cold, hard eyes, "I found the main body."
After the mirrors shattered, other people also came into view.
"Where's Su Buxian..." Jun Mowen immediately noticed Night Guard standing alone.
Night Guard breathed a sigh of relief and slowly began, "The 'Brother Su' just now was impersonated by a robot... It has already escaped, but I managed to shatter half of its body, it will take some time to repair."
"Then the real..." Stains were somewhat shocked and doubtful.
Night Guard spoke gravely, "And the real Brother Su, I'm afraid he's been trapped in the previous area."
He hesitated for a moment and then uttered four words: "Alive or dead unknown."
-----------------
And the real Su Qi.
He was in the tightly sealed Room No. 9.
The space was small, more like an office area.
And Su Qi was languidly leaning back in an ergonomic chair, holding a cup of a coffee-like beverage, staring at the person tied up in front of him.
"Who are you..."
The man was somewhat surprised and doubtful, "How did you manage to break the password lock and come in?"
His voice grew louder, "And after coming in, you went straight to drinking coffee without saying anything! Shouldn't you say something first, or untie me?"
Su Qi paused then leisurely took a sip of his coffee before replying, "Mainly because I wanted to try the taste of beverages from other planets."
"Hey! I asked you so many questions, and you only answered the least important one!" The man roared.
"Calm down, you are..." Su Qi glanced at his uniform, "Space Man."
"I'm the navigator of this spaceship, dammit!" he said agitatedly, "The navigator chosen from thousands on Tianqi Star!"
"Okay, Space Man."
He had never encountered someone like Su Qi before; opening his mouth but unable to continue, he slumped his shoulders like a deflated balloon, "Fine, you can just call me that."
He hung his head in defeat:
"I've been locked up here for half a month already."
"Time is almost up, and the fate of the entire Tianqi Star lies in this cargo."
"Whoever you are," he lifted his head, urgently pleading, "If you can get me out and help me restart the spaceship, I would be eternally grateful!"
And Su Qi's eyes slightly moved.
[Exploration World Personal Task Triggered]
[Please help Russell fulfill his request]
[After completion, you will receive a World Puzzle Piece]
"This task...sounds," Su Qi put down his coffee, straightened up slightly, "not so easy, Mr. Russell."
Russell stared blankly at Su Qi.
Looking at the other party, he said, "You'll have to pay extra!"
