Life as a Landlord in Global Games

Chapter 22 The truth that I can’t bear to discover

Zhou Qinyi, Li Yi, Liu Zexing and Wu Yu can all be considered as special professionals, but...

When they saw Xiaozhengtai Gu Xinyun's ability, they couldn't help but feel a little bit tongue-tied and envious.

He stretched out his hand and pointed his palm at the gray wolf that was chewing its prey not far away.

"Dimensional decomposition!"

Following his childish voice, the gray-furred wolf was wrapped in a blue square that shone with particle light. The next moment, the blue square decomposed into countless small pieces, and the gray-furred wolf among them naturally became

Countless pieces of meat.

Not even a drop of blood came out.

Gu Xinyun waved again, and the dropped object wrapped in a blue square flew in front of him.

Then the cube disappeared silently, and the dropped object fell into his hand.

This set of operations was so smooth that several men around him looked at each other in confusion.

No wonder Gu Ziyi agreed so easily to the invitation to take her son out for training.

It turns out that this kid is really hiding his secrets, and is actually ridiculously strong!

Gu Xinyun smiled happily. If there was a tail behind him, it would probably fly up to the sky.

"Xiaoyun, can you let me see your panel? It will also help with follow-up arrangements."

Zhou Qinyi was really curious, so he asked aloud, and the other three people also looked expectantly.

Gu Xinyun nodded, and then opened his panel to the three of them.

How should I put it? A hidden profession is probably the pursuit of most players who love online games.

And if this hidden profession is followed by a unique...

Just like an avid figurine enthusiast who sees a room full of limited edition figurines, he is just as excited and crazy.

But I am envious, but there is no such thing as jealousy.

"Not bad, little brother, you are so lucky."

Liu Zexing wanted to imitate Jiang Ke and rub Gu Xinyun's head, but the latter glared at him. He could only retract his hand with a smile and muttered.

"You're so stingy. Even if Sister Jiang touches you, I'll let you..."

His good brother Wu Yu put his arm around his shoulders and said with a smile: "Then if Sister Liu touches your head and another man touches your head, who will you let touch?"

"You won't even let me!" Liu Zexing pushed him away in disgust, "My sister has never touched my head since I can remember!"

"..."

Zhou Qinyi looked helpless as he watched these two childish ghosts fighting.

He always felt tired after bringing three children out, but fortunately he still had his good brother Li Yi here...

He glanced at it and suddenly realized that Li Yi had disappeared without knowing it.

"Ayi!"

After shouting a few times, Li Yi walked out of a collapsed building not far away.

His body was already covered with dust. He waved to several people and shouted:

"Here it is, come here quickly, I found a tunnel!"

Several people walked over quickly and saw a hole covered with wooden boards on the ground of the building that was supposed to be a warehouse.

Below the cave entrance is a deep staircase.

There are messy footprints around the entrance of the cave, but the soil has dried. It seems that no one has moved around for a while.

"There are footprints here. There may be something underneath..." Zhou Qinyi analyzed it and then asked, "What should I say? Do you want to go down and have a look?"

Exploring secrets is quite attractive to boys. Moreover, all of them have special skills (professionals), so they are more courageous.

"Come on, let me take the lead. My skills are good at defense."

Liu Zexing agreed.

Wu Yu and Li Yi looked at each other and nodded.

As for Gu Xinyun, his mother told him to follow Zhou Qinyi's arrangements before he came out, but he just listened obediently.

"Okay, take Yuye and I'll go down with you. Li Yi, you, Xiaoyun and Wu Yuxian will wait outside. I'll give you the signal when it's safe."

Zhou Qinyi made a decision, and everyone naturally agreed.

Liu Zexing opened his arms and shouted in a very melodramatic and exaggerated tone like an aria: "Libel's flames care for you!"

A circle of blue flames suddenly appeared on his body, and the flames took on a translucent crystal texture.

It's like being wrapped in a gem.

"...Stop having so many dramas! It's embarrassing or not, get down quickly!"

Wu Yu couldn't help but complain, "Your skill is just Blessing of Flames, how can you say such a long list!"

"This is called spiritual casting! If you don't understand it, just talk nonsense."

Liu Zexing replied dissatisfied, and then walked down cautiously.

Zhou Qinyi did nothing. His profession was quite special and he could cast spells with just a thought.

There is no need to do such a stupid and embarrassing act.

The design of this downward staircase is quite unreasonable. Not only is the drop huge, but it is also almost 90 degrees...

In addition, the tops of their heads were too low, which made the two men, both 1.71 meters and 8.8 meters in height, walk down very carefully.

The shield can prevent damage, but it can't prevent head collisions with walls.

Fortunately, the light from Liu Zexing's shield illuminated the dark, damp and narrow staircase, so the two of them did not have to walk down in the dark.

After walking like this for three to four minutes, the two finally went down the stairs and reached the bottom.

Standing on the wet cement floor, all I could smell in my nose was a fishy smell caused by excessive humidity.

It smells bad.

This space seems to be quite large, with a passage leading into darkness.

And in the distance, there are lights dimly visible.

"Someone lives here?"

Liu Zexing lowered his voice.

"It should be, let's go and have a look and we'll find out."

"Um."

The two of them walked forward. The ground was sticky, but it didn't affect their walking.

Soon they came to the place where the light came from——

A tightly closed door. There is a small window in the door, and the light shines through it.

Zhou Qinyi lay on the window and took a look, but it had not been wiped for a long time and it was originally frosted glass. He couldn't see anything inside clearly.

He thought for a moment and knocked on the door, but after waiting for a while there was no response.

He knocked again, harder this time, and shouted, "Is anyone there?"

There was still no response from the door.

He tried to twist the door handle and found that it was not closed tightly.

"Let me drive. I can block it if anything happens."

Liu Zexing said.

Zhou Qinyi stepped aside. He watched Liu Zexing twist the door handle, and he was already ready to release his skills.

"Click~squeak~"

The door was slowly pushed open, revealing a small room under the dim light from the light bulbs hanging from the ceiling.

There are mattresses and quilts in the corner of the room. On the other side, there is an iron shelf. On the iron shelf, there are instant noodles buckets, mineral water bottles and other things.

There was a foul smell in the room.

The source of the stench was the two people lying on the quilt.

One female and one male, one old and one young.

She must be an old lady in her fifties or sixties, with a pale face and a somewhat painful expression. She covered her chest with her arms and had lost all the breath of life.

That is to say, the weather has not been so hot these days. If it really gets hot...

Liu Zexing pursed his lips and looked at the other person next to the old lady in silence.

This is a boy who looks to be fifteen or sixteen years old. His legs are wrapped in gauze from the knees down, and his trouser legs are empty.

The boy's only remaining skinny arm hugged the old lady, with a peaceful and sentimental look on his face.

His skin color is still normal and has not turned pale due to death. It is obvious that he died not long ago.

"He wouldn't be able to stand up without help."

Zhou Qinyi had finally faced death head-on. Although his expression was indifferent, his tone could not stop being low.

"He probably starved to death."

He could almost imagine that this pair, mother and son or grandfather and grandson, had gone through all kinds of hardships and finally found a space to hide in, and there was also a lot of food...

But because of the sudden death of the old man, and the fact that the boy lost his legs and an arm for unknown reasons, he had no choice but to starve to death here.

The comfortable life he had created in the apartment was shattered by the cruel and real scene in front of him. Liu Zexing even had the urge to turn around and run away.

It was at this time that he realized: Oh, it turns out that I am really in the end of the world.

Zhou Qinyi saw his expression, sighed and patted his shoulder to express comfort.

"I know, don't worry."

Liu Zexing forced a smile, "I've also seen a lot of apocalyptic literature and movies...well, but I didn't expect it to be like this when I actually saw it..."

His tone was already choked with sobs.

"Movies and novels are always different, let's bury them here.

Just in case...just in case an animal comes in."

Zhou Qinyi said softly.

"Um."

Liu Zexing looked at the scene in the corner, spread his palms and moved his lips.

A fireball like water shot out from his palm, burning silently and quickly.

It only took a moment for the flames to spread throughout the room.

Everything disappeared in the flames.

By this time, Zhou Qinyi and Liu Zexing had already left.

The two returned to the ground. Li Yi looked at them with strange expressions and just exchanged glances with Zhou Qinyi.

Wu Yu and Liu Zexing had been friends for so long, and they could see something was wrong and didn't even ask.

As for Gu Xinyun, he was an even better person. He stood aside honestly.

"I'm fine, let's go, let's go somewhere else."

After a while, Liu Zexing finally said with a forced smile.

"let's go!"

Wu Yu stepped forward and hugged his good friend's shoulders.

This time the latter did not refuse.

But after everyone left, Liu Zexing suddenly turned around and threw several fireballs in succession.

This wooden structure, which had lost its intended function, was wailing in the flames. The green vegetation covering its surface could not delay its collapse, but instead accelerated the fire.

Soon, it collapsed.

Well, it's a little late... I read something.
