There's definitely something wrong with this murder mystery game-Chapter 777 - 663 He Was Not Human to Begin With

Chapter 777: Chapter 663 He Was Not Human to Begin With

The Sun’s Holy Light bloomed into delicate chains, interweaving like beams of light and immediately binding the frenzied youth who had tried to bomb the barrier.

As he struggled, the chains tightened around him, the scorching temperature clinging to the youth’s skin, which even his sharp spikes had not pierced, leaving behind burns.

After struggling for a while, the youth seemed to realize the chains restraining him, halting his forward charge and frowning down at his bindings.

The Knight Order held the chains in their hands, all staring at him with grave readiness.

Although this dragon currently took a human form, the legends told of true giant dragons that soared for thousands of miles.

It was said that the body of a Dragon Clan member was so vast that it could span tens of meters; if it were to transform here, the entire Underground Temple would likely collapse.

At this point, Zuo Fang also came back to his senses, sizing up the youth with a strange expression.

“You followed us here obediently all the way, don’t tell me you just wanted to take this opportunity to attack the Pope of Light? Don’t tell me you’re really that fucking stupid?”

In his eyes, this was a player.

Even if this was a player who didn’t care about teammates, they should still prioritize the bigger picture, or at least have some common sense, right?

If they wanted to assassinate the Papal, it would have been smarter to choose a time when the Order of the Sun Knights was absent, or to ambush when he wasn’t in the church.

To attempt an ambush upon first sighting.

This player must be brainless, right?

Besides, the plot has only just begun; it wouldn’t be too late to gather sufficient information by following them and then turn on them later.

In short, if Zuo Fang had infiltrated the enemy’s ranks, he could find countless reasons not to burst out in violence as soon as they met.

So at the moment, he truly couldn’t comprehend the dragon’s thought process.

…

The youth had also calmed down by this time.

With a somewhat sinister radiant smile on his face, he stared straight at the young man ahead, and in a ghostly tone said, “Sorry about that, the scent of your Pope of Light is just too intoxicating, I couldn’t help myself.”

Zuo Fang curled his lip: “Do your Dragon Clan members even eat humans?”

“We eat everything~”

Although the youth was responding to Zuo Fang, his eyes remained fixed on Xu Shuo, his boiling emotions somewhat restless.

The Underground Temple still reeked of meat, but now, it was unclear whether the meaty aroma was from a wild boar being barbecued or the rich Blood Qi emanating from the dragon.

The Order of the Sun Knights remained on high alert too, the golden glow emanating from the twenty of them illuminating the entire underground as if it were broad daylight.

After locking eyes with the youth for a long moment, Xu Shuo suddenly snickered and softly said, “This dragon is too unruly; better to kill it.”

Zuo Fang, who had only just come to his senses: “????”

What, are both of your heads not working right tonight?

Although he had intended to slay the dragon if it proved to be an adversary, it seemed as though neither of you even bothered to test the waters. So you’re the kind of person who doesn’t care about teammates after all?

But if the dragon is on the ally’s side, we’re practically halfway to victory in this game!

As if sensing Zuo Fang’s thoughts, Xu Shuo suddenly turned to look at him, assertively saying, “It’s confirmed, he’s the enemy!”

Zuo Fang’s face scrunched up: “…?”

How did you confirm it?

The only thing I’m sure of is that you both want to kill each other.

At that moment, the youth spoke with a strange smile, “Starting to shout about murder now? That’s too rash; killing the wrong person could be a considerable loss.”

Zuo Fang felt in a daze that the words were strangely familiar.

Then he heard Xu Shuo beside him say coldly, “There won’t be a mistake.”

Zuo Fang: …Feels like there’s no mistake, that answer also sounded very familiar.

He glanced at the youth, whose demeanor remained calm—so calm that it was even a bit eerie and terrifying. As he looked over the youth’s inorganic, icy, and hollow silver-white pupils, Zuo Fang couldn’t help but take a small step back.

So you two are actually the same kind of person, huh?!

Just then, the young man suddenly turned his head toward Zuo Fang and raised his eyebrows, saying, “Look, you were giving me that kind of look before, and now your teammate is doing the same.”

Xu Shuo raised an eyebrow and looked at Zuo Fang.

Zuo Fang quickly came to his senses, then spoke righteously, “So you are trying to sow discord! Hmph, as a Sun Knight of Light, I swear to forever serve loyally under the Papal Holiness!”

While earning performance points, he was secretly hinting to Xu Shuo the other’s intentions.

“Haha——”

The youth seemed pleased by his words, and even though he was entangled in countless chains, he showed no sign of worry or fear at the moment.

He then turned to Xu Shuo and said, “War will soon come, why not let me finish my meal and then make a decision?”

Xu Shuo’s gaze grew serious, and he twiddled with the burning palm of his hand, apparently contemplating something.

The young man smiled again, “This war is very important to you, isn’t it? Fighting here and now would do you no good, and I’m not in the mood for a fight at the moment. Perhaps, I might even be able to help you when the time comes?”

Xu Shuo looked deeply at the young man, then waved his hand to signal the Sun Knights to step back.

This is a level three assessment script.

If the role of the giant dragon was played by another player, Xu Shuo might still have confidence to compete with them, but if it was Luo Kun playing the dragon…

He wasn’t sure what this guy might pull off.

First of all, very hard to kill, and always making a comeback is truly very troublesome.

Moreover, if not handled well, the other party might even run off to join the opposing camp.

If he were to cause trouble for the opposing side, that would be cause for celebration, but if he went over to help the other side and cause trouble for him, Xu Shuo wasn’t sure he could maintain his composure without blowing up.

If he did lose his composure, then unless the Script World broke down again, his abilities would be exposed.

Very strange.

Encountering Luo Kun always triggered a peculiar change in his emotions, similar to when he saw Los without his glasses, he would unconsciously admire the good figures of members of the opposite sex…cough.

Xu Shuo took note of this and planned to seize an opportunity to let Luo Kun make an appearance at Themis’s place.

…

The Order of the Sun Knights followed the Pope’s commands without question.

Even though they were worried about releasing the dragon posing a threat to His Holiness, they still showed no signs of disobedience and silently withdrew their Power of Light to the side of the colonnade.

After the chains dissipated, Luo Kun loosened his muscles, and the burns on his skin quickly faded away.

With an ambiguous smile towards Xu Shuo, he then turned and walked toward the barbecue grill at the back.

Due to the Aura of Light released by the Order of the Sun Knights, the flames at the barbecue grill burned more fiercely, and the boar that was already nearly cooked was now charred.

He poked the boar, then pinched off a piece of charred pig skin and put it in his mouth, turning his head to look at the youth standing nearby with a brimming smile, “Holy Father, come and eat with us.”

Before Xu Shuo could react, Zuo Fang had already rubbed the goosebumps on his arms.

“Why do I always feel there’s something sinister about this kid?”

“It’s best not to see him as human.”

After Xu Shuo said this casually, he stepped forward and walked over.

Zuo Fang thought for a moment and then said seriously, “What His Holiness said makes sense, though it seems he was never human to begin with.”

Indeed, a double entendre.
