“Qi Ning.” Xiao Lan called out the name of the person who had arrived.

At the same time, he didn’t let down his guard. After all, Wang Taidi’s evaluation was that this person shouldn’t be provoked and was hard to deal with. vEP3i0

After seeing Qi Ning act, Xiao Lan also had some understanding of how troublesome he was. This sort of intangible plague without substance was simply impossible to defend against. On top of that, Qi Ning also seemed to have the ability to control the plague’s development, which made him even more dangerous.

Hearing Xiao Lan’s words, there was a bit of a smile in Qi Ning’s voice. “Oh, it seems that the Wang family’s Xiao Taidi has already told you who I am.”

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Qi Ning pointed at the corpse on the floor. “Sun Feng, 38 years old, used to be a robber. An entire family was exterminated after the owner discovered him, resulting in the deaths of four people. Among them were two children who weren’t even four years old. After that, he stayed low for many years, and entered the Advent World two weeks ago.

“But I didn’t kill him for justice. I enjoy blood and sin; I merely aim my butcher knife at the butcher.” He lifted his head and seemed to meet Xiao Lan’s gaze through the beaked mask, which concealed his emotions. “Perhaps I’m more vile than he was. So? Want to put me on trial?” zVNaGl

Xiao Lan shook his head. “In this sort of place, discussing justice is meaningless.”

“True. Perhaps saints will also ultimately turn into executioners here…” Hearing Xiao Lan’s words, Qi Ning gave a low laugh. “Hehe, hurry up and grow ba. I very much look forward to our next meeting.”

With that, he walked forward, but the moment he brushed past Xiao Lan, he suddenly reached out towards Xiao Lan’s neck.

His hand was slender with prominent knuckles, and brought with it a blast of cold air.

A scalp-numbing sense of crisis flared and Xiao Lan intuitively sensed that Qi Ning was very dangerous right now. In an instant, all his muscles stretched taut as he briskly leapt to the side and avoided Qi Ning’s outstretched hand.

Luo also darted over in a flash and stood in front of Xiao Lan to protect him, the black claws on his fingertips faintly visible.

Qi Ning paused, but didn’t attack again.

Half his body was hidden in the shadows of the corridor as he turned his head slightly. “Very keen reflexes. I truly do look forward to our next meeting now. Hopefully we will meet again in an advanced instance. Z0bLCg

“See you later.”

Qi Ning no longer dallied this time after saying that, and disappeared down the corridor without turning back.

Xiao Lan let out a soft breath. Even when their strength was suppressed in beginner instances, advanced players still gave off enormous pressure ah.

“Are you alright, sir?” Luo turned his head with some worry. jC4yiL

Xiao Lan rotated his neck. The goosebumps that had popped up along with that sense of danger had already disappeared. “I’m fine. Let’s go ba, there’s not much time left.”

The two of them continued moving forward and calculated their distance from the basement as their surroundings never stopped changing.

The corridor was already less and less like a corridor. The walls and floor were crisscrossed and created irregular spaces which warped the corridor, making it even harder for Xiao Lan to move forward.

Xiao Lan tried tearing down the walls forcefully, but very quickly realised that it didn’t help. knf4vF

Because after he tore down one wall, he would find two or three more waiting behind it; the damaged wall was quickly replaced with other walls.

“Let’s go, sir.” Luo made an inviting gesture.

Truly an extremely reliable manual navigator.

Following the line drawn by Luo, they moved much quicker.

They pushed their way through a labyrinth. On the way, they passed a few staircases, and they estimated that they were probably getting closer and closer to the basement’s original location. DwX98t

After turning a corner, Xiao Lan stopped walking.

Because before him stood a large crowd of maids in uniforms.

They were like that maid earlier; their expressions were dull and even only the whites of their eyes were now showing. This wave of human figures didn’t make a single sound as they stood straight and tall and didn’t move at all, like a pile of dead animals.

The moment Xiao Lan appeared from around the corner, the maids abruptly raised their heads and ‘looked’ at him in unison with their completely white eyes. pMZ9hD

In a flash, sinister smiles appeared on their faces.

Then, they began to move, their four limbs waving exaggeratedly as they greeted the two men with completely chaotic attacks like before.

The human figures densely packed together were scalp-numbing and Xiao Lan definitely didn’t want to be surrounded. With this amount of NPCs, and all of them with the combat abilities of a radish, it would be troublesome if he accidentally killed some of them.

Recalling the shop assistant young miss from the Terminal Supermarket, Xiao Lan absolutely had no wish to know what would happen if he killed these maids. 46HpVL

He took a couple of steps back, then made a running leap onto the wall. Kicking off the wall, he used the force to land in another direction and bypass the first wave of maids that was coming at them head-on.

Luo also followed closely behind him. As a non-human, the effects of his actions were far less prominent compared with Xiao Lan’s. He directly dashed along the wall and occasionally reached out to lend Xiao Lan some strength.

Xiao Lan shuttled between the maids and detoured around them wherever possible; when he was in a tricky position, he would jump up and grab Luo’s hand to swing past them. They worked in tandem and got through without mishap.

They were much quicker than the maids and swiftly went around this section which the maids were blocking. AdcrYN

The maids who had lost their sense of reason seemed to have lost their intelligence as well. After the two of them went around the labyrinth a few times, they easily shook off all the maids, senseless roars ringing out behind them from time to time.

They didn’t seem very smart.

The two of them continued forward as they looked for the direction to the basement.

At that moment, the labyrinthine corridor transformed again. xLlhA9

The corridor started to break down into blocks like toy building blocks, and different sections headed off in different directions.

The section which Xiao Lan was on headed upwards, so he jumped onto the next block whenever he found the right chance, with Luo following right behind.

The two of them continued jumping around these scattered blocks, and they in fact travelled downwards a lot quicker than when they had been moving through the corridor and labyrinth.

Xiao Lan leapt onto a new block, then discovered that someone was already there. xRTcBs

That person was wearing an immaculate housekeeper uniform but her hair was unkempt and fell casually around her shoulders; there were also faint traces of dust on her clothes — it was the female housekeeper.

She was sitting on a wide sofa that had a very big and tall back which completely concealed her. When Xiao Lan landed, he just happened to be standing to the side of the sofa, which was when he realised that someone was in it.

The female housekeeper’s current condition was pretty much like the maids’ — she looked stiff and wooden, and was nothing like a normal person.

Seeing that even the housekeeper looked like that, Xiao Lan had a conjecture in his heart. w dBZR

Perhaps it wasn’t that other people weren’t allowed to be present at Madam Bella’s sacrificial ceremony, but that these people lost their self-awareness during the ceremony and became tools which completely obeyed Madam Bella and didn’t have the slightest impression of what they did.

This was why the housekeeper said that she herself didn’t know the details of the sacrificial ceremony.

Sensing that someone was next to her, the housekeeper also stood up and attacked Xiao Lan.

Her fighting strength hadn’t changed; it didn’t take Xiao Lan much effort to subdue her before he directly tied her up and tossed her onto another block that was moving upwards. MYSViN

Just as Xiao Lan turned completely around, there was a blast of wind.

It was aimed at his nape.

A sense of foreboding crawled up Xiao Lan’s spine. He didn’t turn back around, but simply bent down and leapt to the side, dodging this blow.

Out of the corner of his eye, something glimmered with faint light as it flashed by and then vanished into the darkness. If he hadn’t dodged, he would most likely be dead now. rsvdTw

Xiao Lan turned his head, dangerous killing intent in his gaze.

He then nearly threw up.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

In front of him were the two male players who had eaten the food lovingly cooked by Madam Bella, and they were now glaring at him with faces filled with fanatical murderous energy. They appeared much more clear-headed than the maids and housekeeper… but they were wearing the same clothes as the maids.

They didn’t even shave their beards! kYhRSu

The two men with stubbly beards and wearing maid uniforms which didn’t suit them rolled up their sleeves to their elbows, revealing their hairy arms.

When one of the male players saw Xiao Lan unexpectedly avoid the previous attack, he formed a heart before his chest with his two big hands and shouted, “In the name of love and justice, I’ll end you!”

As soon as he said the words, an arrow made of fire instantly shot out from his hands and headed right for Xiao Lan.

Brother, this skill of yours is too eye-piercing! Z018Yb

Xiao Lan hastily evaded this head-on danger.

With a “boom —”, the fire arrow struck the sofa behind Xiao Lan, and the sofa promptly burst into raging flames and was instantly reduced to a husk.

While this skill was eye-piercing, it was pretty powerful.

Xiao Lan promptly raised his guard. As a pure close-range combatant, he was at a bit of a disadvantage when facing these two long-range fighters. He turned to look at Luo; this guy wasn’t the long-range type either. X82lhd

Seeing that the fire arrow didn’t have an effect either, the other male player raised his hand as another intangible, whistling sound of wind rushed at Xiao Lan.

Xiao Lan sidestepped again; this time, he paid close attention. It was something transparent and its sense of existence was extremely weak as it just barely reflected a bit of the surrounding light.

Although they were two players who had skills, now wasn’t the most critical moment, and Xiao Lan had no plans to activate his skill. He observed these two players; their skills probably had restrictions as well, as the game definitely wouldn’t allow players to willy-nilly use their skills to reduce the risk in the game.

Xiao Lan gave Luo a meaningful look. Luo understood, and the two charged towards the men from split different directions. J87edK

The person in front of Xiao Lan was ‘In the name of love and justice, I will end you!’ He looked at Xiao Lan warily, his hands before his chest and ready to form a heart at any moment, but he didn’t attack immediately.

For the moment, both of them appeared to be at an impasse.

Perhaps the cd time for his skill was longer, or maybe he had to say that sentence in order for it to work.

As Xiao Lan got closer, he observed the man’s movements. 94YFH

As the distance between them narrowed and seeing that Xiao Lan was now less than five steps away from him, love and justice panicked and formed a heart with both his hands as he yelled, “In the name of love and —”

Xiao Lan was now sure, and he sped up so that he was instantly in love and justice’s face. He punched his opponent right in the belly and beat back the words that had been on the verge of leaving the man’s lips.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Sure enough, even if he assumed the stance, the skill couldn’t be activated as long as the keywords weren’t recited.

Xiao Lan looked at love and justice whom he had knocked to the floor and gave him a villainous smile. “Now, I will punish you in the name of the poor.” 9C8GMp

Once this sort of fragile long-range unit was within range of someone like Xiao Lan, who was a close-range fighter, their end wasn’t any much different from a Chinese cabbage in the cold wind.

At the same time, Luo had already taken down the other male player. These two were tied up good and proper like the housekeeper, and Luo tossed them onto a block that was headed upwards.

By now, Xiao Lan and Luo could no longer see the floor of the banquet hall below them.

They were very close to the basement. rdJV7q

Xiao Lan: Poverty power, transform!

Luo: Sir, it’s time to take your medicine

Translator's Note

The original said “战五渣”, which is actually short for “戰鬥力只有五的渣滓” (the combat ability is at a lowly level 5). It comes from Dragonball Z, where Raditz is analyzing a human. Basically the opposite of “it’s over 9000”. Copy pasted from yanyan, thanks buddy

    Thank you for the great translation ♥️

  7. So “hurry up and grow” is something that is usually said by an older ML to a younger male MC…Qi Ning is an interesting guy. Also…isn’t he rumored to be an albino? An Luo is a black shadow. An interesting parallel there (opposites, yin and yang…). I wonder what other parts of himself Luo is missing…and what Qi Ning really looks like.

  8. Hahahaha

    These other players seem ready to perform I want to break free

    😂😂😂

    Thanks for the chapter♡

  9. The sailor moon vibes, lmfaooo

    I just pictured an utterly unbothered Luo wearing a magical girl outfit, and XL being stuck somewhere between “shameful boner” and laughing his ass off

  10. the most devastating part of this is that it’s clear that the guy’s “In the name of love of justice” skill was something he had before, words and pose included. and he failed the instance. fucked up! i want sailor man back as a reoccurring side gag!!!

    … i really want to know how he acquired that skill, though.
