For a moment, Bai Lixin even thought that he had fallen into a certain cool infinite stream novel.

Xia Chi was the main character with a lot of luck, while he was the unlucky canon fodder.

Xia Chi jumped at the chance to go inside: “brother, do you want to go in and see?”

The cold wind from the inside rolled over their faces and felt like a small knife cut in the face.

Bai Lixin “What do you think is inside?”

“The secret treasure of the human race.” Xia Chi pointed to his temple, “The flash of inspiration, you know.”

Bai Lixin: “……”

What the hell was this absolute cheat. He really admired it.

A barking sound came from the depths of the tunnel, followed by several barks after the other.

The group was ready to move when a voice came from the distance.

A woman dressed as an attendant waved her hand and shouted at them from a distance. “ Guests, His Majesty the Emperor, His Royal Highness the Empress and His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor will be coming soon.”

With that, the attendant left in a hurry as if she had completed her task.

Bai Lixin remembered Wen Ziqing’s conversation with the man upstairs and said, “You guys go over first, see who Count Aer dealt with, we two will go in.”

Xia Chi and the other two looked at each other, and Xia Chi looked at the passage with some fear. “Be careful, brother.”

When the three people left, Bai Lixin saw Dijia cast a spell towards Xia Chi.

Once they left, Bai Lixin and Dijia walked into the secret passage.

The mechanism on the wall was similar to the one Bai Lixin saw in the [The Blood Clan] copy, but a little different.

The secret passage in Mr. Mo’s castle led underground, while this one was just an extension of the ground floor.

But when they were entering the castle earlier, he had observed the structure of the castle from the outside; this was the edge of the castle, and further ahead should be the walls.

Dijia suddenly grabbed Bai Lixin’s wrist.

“This place doesn’t feel right.”

In the darkness, Dijia’s voice reached Bai Lixin’s ears.

Bai Lixin froze for a moment and quickly opened the task bar.

[Copy name: Third Symphony of the Undead– Hymn of the Undead. The number of participants in the game is 10, and the number of remaining participants is 3.]

He immediately opened his friend bar and saw that his name was in grey.

Sure enough, he had become one of the dead once again.

——

Xia Chi and the other two had just walked into the hall when the system’s prompt rang out.

[Ding! Player death x1. There are 3 players remaining currently. I wish the players a happy game.]

Xia Chi, Li Cancan and Liang Xi: “……”

The big boss is dead again, what expression should they have this time?

Terror? Shock? Sadness? Surprise?

The three looked at each other for a moment and their expressions were a little dull.

Li Cancan: “Is that tunnel a similar existence to an inner world, Xia Chi?”

Xia Chi had opened his friend bar and found that Bai Lixin’s avatar had gone dark, “I think so?”

Liang Xi gulped: “I remember watching you guys clear the [Blood Clan] copy and all those players entered the inner world.”

“Although they did not die, the system ruled them dead and the copy was closed directly, right? So if all four of us had gone in ……”

Before he finished speaking, the three people’s scalps suddenly tingled for a moment.

Only the four of them were still in line with the system rating of “alive”.

If they were all judged to be dead, then wouldn’t they be stuck in this copy?

The three of them were feeling terrified when the piano in the hall suddenly stopped.

At the same time, the high-pitched voice of the guard rang out.

“His Majesty has arrived!”

“The Empress has arrived!”

“His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor has arrived!”

Walking at the front was a man in his forties. He had decent features, wore a luxurious golden-red royal robe with a crown on his head.

The man was holding a good looking man by the hand, who had a gentle smile on his face.

However, although these two people were good-looking, their expressions were very dull.

Behind them was a young man in his twenties. He had feminine and beautiful features.

If Bai Lixin was here, he would have realized that this feminine young man was the one who just eaten hearts before Wen Ziqing ……

——–

Bai Lixin: [So if they also came in, this copy would have been directly closed?]

At this time, Bai Lixin, was talking with the escape system.

The escape system: [That is theoretically correct.]

Bai Lixin: [ What happens to us if the copy closes?]

The escape system:[ Maintain the status quo. You entered this world because the system sent you here. Once the system decides that all the players are dead, it will immediately cut off the connection to the game lobby and this copy.]

[Even if you weren’t really dead and completed the task, you can’t enter the game lobby unless a new group of people enter and reopen the copy.]

[ In fact, the flow of time in the game copies is not the same as the real world. You may be watching the Livestream in the game lobby and think that the copy just closed and opened, but in the copy world, a year may have passed, a decade may have passed, or even hundreds of years would have passed.]

[So even if the system makes a wrong judgement, there hasn’t been a player that came back from the copy after being deemed dead. ] The escape system paused for two seconds and corrected itself: [ except for that time in the [Blood Clan] copy, that was an exception.]

Bai Lixin opened the system backpack and found that the two secret treasures were still there. [Wen Ziqing was judged dead but the the secret treasure returned to the Undead. Why is mine still there?]

The escape system: [The determination method is different. The system is also afraid of a misjudgment, so in order to protect the safety of the player, only the backpack determines whether the player has a heartbeat or not. If they don’t, the backpack can not be opened. And once the backpack cannot be opened, the copy props that are inside will be reset. Player, you still have a heartbeat so you can the backpack, and the two props will remain there.]

Bai Lixin closed the backpack bar, and raised a good-looking eyebrow.

Looking at this way, that ”flash of inspiration” was sometimes not that useful.

He quickly took out the flashlight from the backpack and turned it on.

From the outside, it looked like a normal tunnel, and only after walking in did they find out that it was something special.

It was so dark that even the flashlight set at the highest setting didn’t provide much light.

Bai Lixin shone the flashlight around but they could not get their bearings.

They couldn’t even find the direction of the entrance, it was pitch black all around.

The sound of barking dogs surrounded them.

Bai Lixin could only temporarily try to move forward.

Aside from his initial words, Dijia did not say anything more but solemnly grasped Bai Lixin’s wrist, afraid that they would get separated.

After walking for a while without reaching the end, Bai Lixin stopped and looked at Dijia. “Your issue seems a little more serious than we thought.”

Dijia was silent for a few seconds before slowly speaking. “This dimensional magic space is the same as the space I made in the boa’s mouth.”

“This is a space I created when I was an apprentice. I wrote the magic on a piece of paper at that time, and it was only my master who saw it.”

“I was afraid that this kind of magic would cause panic, so I destroyed it immediately after my teacher read it.”

“The magician who made this place must have a deep connection with my teacher,” Dijia was silent for a moment then he added, “Your earlier guess was right, I suspect that this magician is most likely my teacher.”

“A person’s figure can be disguised, and even their temperament can be deceiving. But magic is a magician’s second face, and magic will leave details that the magician may overlook.”

A white magic formation appeared in front of Dijia, and with this magic formation, the entire dark space shifted a bit.

“This magic formation resonates with the original magic formation my teacher taught me, they have the same origin.”

“I’m curious about his reasons for doing these things and how he’s been able to live for so long.”

“However, he expended more energy on this space than I did. There should be a specific guide in this dark labyrinth.”

Guide?

There is, who said there wasn’t?!

Bai Lixin opened his backpack and pulled out the lion fur coat from it.

The sound of barking, coupled with the previous clue of three headed dog wasn’t hard to piece together.

The Beast king gave him this fur so it should come in handy.

Sure enough, the barking dogs kept quiet the moment Bai Lixin took out the fur coat.
