Chapter 41 finally got the cheat code activated.
Bai Ye nodded: "I've asked Lin Huang to go and call him."
Han Xinwan thought for a moment, then suddenly turned and walked towards the door.
Bai Ye immediately had a bad feeling: "What are you going to do?"
She walked to the door, but instead of opening it immediately, she began operating the control panel on the wall next to her.
"It's too late, let's go see what's going on."
Upon hearing this, Bai Ye hurriedly advised, "At least wait until the director arrives before saying anything."
However, Han Xinwan did not stop what she was doing, but emphasized, "I just said, it's too late."
Before Bai Ye could say anything more, she had already switched and opened the door to room 661.
Seeing this, Bai Ye quickly followed.
The two people, one after the other, passed through the door of room 661 and entered the multiverse behind the door.
James, the investigator from the 7th floor, did not follow, simply because Bai Ye left a message before departing:
"You stay here and wait for the director to come and tell him what happened."
After saying that, he disappeared behind the door.
...
In the blink of an eye.
Han Xinwan and Bai Ye entered the transit station of Universe 661 one after the other.
This place is exactly the same as when Xu Lun came before:
A quaint little tavern.
Behind the bar, Station Master Huang and another staff member were staring at an old-fashioned television set placed in the corner.
The scene playing on the television was exactly what Zulu Village was like at that very moment!
Han Xinwan strode forward, pointed at the television, and said directly:
"Why not connect the footage to the administration's internal system?"
Team Leader Huang had never met Han Xinwan before, but seeing Bai Ye behind her, he roughly guessed her identity, and quickly said respectfully:
"We had just connected the camera here when something happened in Zulu Village. We haven't had time to connect to the headquarters system yet. We're really sorry."
Han Xinwan walked to the bar and sat down on a chair.
Behind him, Bai Ye also sat down.
Separated by a bar counter, the two of them watched the television screen.
Team Leader Huang gave another staff member a knowing wink, and the staff member immediately poured two glasses of water and handed them to the two team leaders.
But neither of them was in the mood for water; their attention was entirely on the television.
Han Xinwan asked, "What exactly happened just now?"
Team Leader Huang quickly explained the situation.
After hearing this, she quickly concluded:
"So that bracelet can deflect all kinds of attacks, abilities from any multiverse, so that's how it is..."
Bai Ye, standing to the side, said, "But unfortunately, the one who attacked Xu Lun this time was not one of the shadowy figures that appeared in Universe 616, but a monster from this universe."
Han Xinwan didn't reply; she stared at the scene on the television screen.
Xu Lun stood alone in the darkness, motionless, as if lost in thought.
They were wondering what had happened to him.
At this moment, Xu Lun was looking at the book in his mind and suddenly realized that he seemed to have been immersed in it for some time.
The next second, with a whoosh, his consciousness instantly returned to the present moment—
He was still standing on the dirt road outside Zulu Village, and everything in front of him was still the same as before.
He looked at his half-raised arm, and when he looked at the bracelet again, he no longer felt the same way as before.
But vaguely, when he tried to examine his own consciousness again, the book in his mind seemed to reappear.
Xu Lun breathed a sigh of relief. No problem, everything he had just felt was real.
Since that's the case...
He suddenly turned his head, looked around, and saw Old Wu still hiding behind the sentry post. He immediately grinned.
"Old Wu, come here!"
The old man's face immediately darkened. Good heavens, so they're not pretending anymore? They were so polite before, but now they're bossing him around and don't respect him at all.
He realized that this young man was a typical example of someone who was pretending to be weak while actually being strong. Although he had previously guessed that the other party's identity was not simple, he never expected that the man-eating monster would be killed by this guy with a single punch—whether it was dead or not was another matter, but it certainly wouldn't appear again.
Moreover, the moves that the young man used just now were neither those of an Enlightened One nor a Star Signer, but rather seemed to share a common origin with the aura emanating from that monster.
This only made the old man more wary:
He wasn't worried about the other party's backing coming from the Celestial Realm, but he feared that the other party might be from some clan or tribe. If they were connected to those demon kings, the situation would become much more complicated...
He didn't want to be drawn into the vortex of these massive power struggles.
The old man hesitated for a long time, unsure of how to respond.
at this time.
Zhou Bo and the others, who were flying in the sky, also witnessed this scene.
"Senior Brother Zhou, what should we do?" Junior Brother Zhang Yuan asked anxiously.
Zhou Bo didn't give an answer immediately; in fact, he was also struggling with his own thoughts.
On one hand, he wanted to see how Old Wu would respond, since the old man's identity was also a mystery. What was his background and what were his abilities? He might reveal his true colors later.
On the other hand, Zhou Bo didn't recognize the person Old Wu had arranged to keep watch earlier, but it was clear that this person was powerful and of extraordinary status. The move he used to repel the demon beast was not a move used by cultivators. Compared to Old Wu, this guy gave off a more dangerous feeling.
Time waits for no one. Zhou Bo thought for a moment, his brow furrowing, and said:
"Let's use the same plan we used to deal with the monsters. Second option: Let's go!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he took the lead and swooped down.
What's the second scenario?
Junior Brother Zhang Yuan and Junior Sister Zhou exchanged a glance, and without thinking too much, quickly followed suit and flew down.
at the same time.
After hesitating for a long time, Wu was about to walk towards Xu Lun, but as soon as he took a step, three figures quickly descended from the sky and surrounded Xu Lun from three directions.
Zhou Bo cupped his hands and said:
"Brother, my apologies... I am Zhou Bo, from Yundu Academy. May I ask your name? You just defeated that monster with a single move. I'm sure you acted righteously to rid the people of a scourge. I admire you greatly."
This wasn't exactly a lie, because from Zhou Bo's perspective, Xu Lun walked out from behind the sentry post, encountered the monster, and then, as the monster charged at him, repelled it. The whole process was seamless, and it really looked like he deliberately showed himself to lure out the monster and then intentionally killed it.
After all, Zhou Bo didn't know Xu Lun had a cheat-like bracelet, and from any perspective, he hoped Xu Lun was that kind of person. If Xu Lun had ulterior motives, or even a bigger conspiracy, then tonight could be a catastrophe for him, his junior brothers and sisters, and the villagers of Zulu Village...
Because they saw something they shouldn't have seen.
