Chapter 327: Revised: Chapter 299 Instant Kill
???
The name of the Mi Family game, even Dorling Gray, who doesn’t play mobile games, had heard of it, but he was indeed unaware of the hidden truths behind it, so he was rather bewildered.
"Forget it."
Dorling Gray, who considered himself to have already stepped into high society, didn’t want to engage in unnecessary arguments with a nobody like Viper, a third-rate person with no fame. He immediately said, "Let’s vote by raising hands. Those who agree to go to the high tower in the north, please raise your hand."
Low to mid-level Transcendents still haven’t completely shed the concept of being "human," their thoughts and considerations haven’t escaped humanity yet.
Dorling Gray deliberately threw out a more risky proposal first. More players might not have reacted yet, or were still hesitating, watching others’ choices. The willingness to raise hands was not high.
The result was just as he expected, only a handful of six people, including Viper, Zhao Zijing, and Bai Jixiong, raised their hands.
Dorling Gray smiled slightly and continued, "Those who agree to stay here, please raise your hand."
With the previous vote, the remaining people felt less psychological burden and raised their hands one after another.
"Twelve to six, Talisman Nail relinquish the vote."
Dorling Gray smiled and said, "The voting result, we’ll stay here..."
"Wait."
Bai Jixiong, in his Arctic Bear form, suddenly said, "Do you guys feel that the surrounding temperature has dropped?"
"Huh?"
Dorling Gray froze for a moment and looked around.
The main structure of the building where everyone was still reasonably intact, the door of the conference room was closed, and there was no draft.
Dorling Gray didn’t notice any significant temperature change, he even suspected if Bai Jixiong was talking nonsense to overturn the voting result.
"Arctic Bears are very sensitive to temperature. When the temperature exceeds 21.1℃, they show symptoms of heat stress."
Li Cheng solemnly said, "By the way, in the real world, due to multiple industrial chemicals, including PCB polychlorinated biphenyl, migrating, accumulating, and spreading pollution to the Arctic region,
it has led to a continuous decrease in bone density of Arctic Bear populations for decades, making their bones smaller and more brittle, more prone to broken bones.
This worsens the already pessimistic survival situation of the species.
This matter is also recorded in Liu Yuxi’s ’Inscription on a Humble Room’—no commoners come and go."
"Is this word used that way? Why is the ’by the way’ content much longer than the previous part? I sense you get unusually excited when talking about some dirty topics!"
Talisman Nail twitched an eye and couldn’t help but mock, finally understanding the comment in the Special Affairs Bureau’s database on Viper, "Both reliable and unreliable,".
Li Cheng modestly waved his hand, "It’s okay, frankly, I prefer scatological topics over dirty ones."
"That’s not much better!"
As a Mobile Task Force operative, Talisman Nail was quite professional, while mockingly, his hands moved quickly. He pulled out an infrared thermal imaging scanner from the backpack and scanned the conference room back and forth.
Everyone present was not a novice player, they had various methods.
Some pulled out air environment temperature detectors, others air probes, Bai Jixiong directly transformed into an African Viper—the Viper can sense temperature changes as small as 0.001℃ through sensors in its facial pits.
"The temperature is really dropping..."
Talisman Nail felt a tingling sensation on his scalp; in all the sensor displays, the air temperature in the conference room was steadily and slowly dropping from 21℃ to 20.7℃, 20.4℃.
It was as if something invisible was silently absorbing heat.
Zhao Zijing immediately pressed her palms together, releasing the [Point Array Detection] skill she used during the previous escort battery mission to scan all life forms in the surrounding area that fit the concept of life.
Others also employed various techniques; Talisman Nail pulled out a compass to detect hostile targets. Li Cheng gently pushed the Information Integration Glasses on his nose to intensify his probe.
Bai Jixiong also switched from Viper form to Wind Element form, summoning a light breeze to sweep through the conference room, sensing the airflow direction to detect any invisible objects.
To no avail, everything in the room was normal. They couldn’t find the reason for the rapid temperature drop.
"Invisible and incorporeal, capable of evading any detection methods, causing the environment temperature to drop..."
A player with the ID [Sonic], holding a tablet gifted by GOC, had his face suddenly change, he looked up at the conference room ceiling with wide-open eyes, frantically.
His eyes opened wide, his pupils dilated, seemingly seeing something extremely terrifying.
Sizzle!
The next moment, he trembled all over, blood gushed from his eyes, nose, mouth, and ears as he fell backward onto the ground, already lifeless.
The sudden death scene scared everyone to the core; players near [Sonic] retreated hastily, simultaneously pulling out weapons to aim at the empty ceiling.
"WTF..."
Even with his leaping thoughts, Li Cheng didn’t expect such a bizarre death. "This guy is called Sonic, so why is he fast in dying as well as running?"
"This is not the time for sarcastic remarks."
Talisman Nail’s forehead faintly seeped with sweat; Sonic was from the United States, affiliated with the FBI Special Incident Division, also a Lv15 expert, died inexplicably without even struggling.
"Although it’s unclear what happened, anomaly indicates something supernatural,"
Talisman Nail picked up his brush and quickly drew two Gate God images on the table, grabbed them and summoned the Gate Gods to protect him, "Everyone, leave this conference room first."
"No! We can’t leave!"
Zhao Zijing suddenly shouted, "Also, do not open the door!"
Her face paled, her expression was fearful. She kept her head down, her eyes fixated on the conference table, deliberately avoiding the ceiling.
Everyone was surprised and confused; Dorling Gray, who had his hand on the door handle, frowned and hurriedly asked, "What do you know?!"
"I can’t say,"
Zhao Zijing’s face grew paler, her eyes fixed on the conference table, struggling to speak, "Just stay calm, don’t look up, don’t try to escape."
Everyone was puzzled and suspicious, no matter how they asked, Zhao Zijing remained silent. It seemed she had some unspeakable secrets, making her act like a riddle maker.
"This feels like marrying into a wealthy family, being oppressed by the mother-in-law, mocked by the sister-in-law, betrayed by the husband, despised by the servants, poisoned by the mistress and reborn to when she just married into the wealthy family—activate membership to see the complete content for the lowest 0.3 CNY/day."
Li Cheng rubbed his brow, looking at Zhao Zijing’s appearance, she was indeed threatened, and the source of the threat was right in the conference room, invisible and intangible but truly existing.
It certainly couldn’t be a ghost; there were many mid-level players present. Even low-level solitary ghosts wouldn’t stand a chance, let alone senior ghosts like Chu Renmei and Kayako.
It couldn’t be a native monster from another realm either; otherwise, it wouldn’t make sense that only Zhao Zijing could ’see’ it.
Wait...
Li Cheng thought of something, stepped forward to Sonic’s corpse, and took the tablet computer from his hand.
The screen was paused at the search box, Sonic was inputting information such as [invisible and intangible], [can evade detection], [causes environmental temperature drop] into the GOC database for search.
