Chapter 2033 Wang Hao's reprimand, the only chance of survival!

"I......"

Just as Jun Lin was about to retort, Wang Hao made a shushing gesture.

"I'm not really interested in what you're thinking."

"However, there is something I still need to remind you of: the second checkpoint is guarded by our virtual world rescue team."

"If you dare cause trouble here, I'll definitely deal with you."

"If your wife causes trouble here, I'll take care of you too."

“When Chen Changsheng is doing serious business, he likes to be decisive and uncompromising. I, Wang Hao, am naturally no less capable than him.”

"If the army 30,000 miles away doesn't retreat in two hours, don't blame me for not showing any mercy."

Looking at Wang Hao's calm eyes, Jun Lin knew that Grandpa Changsheng was using Wang Hao to give him a warning.

"I understand. The Liyang Dynasty's army will withdraw in two hours."

Having received Junlin's promise, Wang Hao nodded slightly and said, "Good. Also, not only the Liyang Dynasty, but all other forces should withdraw as well."

"If a fight really breaks out, it will damage the harmony."

"If you want to follow what's going on inside, watch the live stream. If you want to be there to support your juniors as soon as possible, come here and wait."

"However, when it comes to waiting for people, it's best not to have too many people, otherwise I'll think you're provoking me."

After saying that, Wang Hao casually conjured a rocking chair and lay down on it.

Liu Yidao hung the wine gourd on his waist and slowly gripped the hilt of his knife with his right hand.

......

Bewitching Inn.

Pushing open the somewhat dilapidated door, Mengde returned to the Bewitching Inn once again.

Interestingly, however, Li Changsheng and his companions searched the entire inn but could not find the old woman anywhere.

Faced with this situation, Mengde once again used his divine sense to search the area around the inn.

After confirming that there were no other living beings, Mengde took out a magical artifact shaped like a bronze bell.

"Buzz!"

As Mengde unleashed his magic weapon, a golden, shimmering bronze bell phantom instantly enveloped everyone.

Seeing this, Li Changsheng and Jianlai also took out similar magical treasures and surrounded everyone.

Looking at the airtight protection, Meng De said softly, "With this level of protection, no one should be able to monitor us for a short period of time."

"To make a long story short, please ask whatever you want to ask as soon as possible."

Upon hearing this, Li Changsheng immediately asked, "How did you survive?"

"With the vice-dean trapped by the demon army, these guys here have no reason to believe you."

Hearing Li Changsheng's doubts, Meng De said, "Of course she won't believe me, but if I willingly offer myself up for death, she won't feel a sense of accomplishment."

"Before I came here, I was thinking about how to survive."

"But I tried many methods, and I still couldn't find a chance to survive."

"If we charge straight in, even if all of us protectors gather together, we probably won't be able to break through this hellhole."

"To lure them with benefits is utter nonsense, because these guys are already dead. The only thing keeping them alive is the belief in revenge."

"Moreover, under Mr. [Name]'s influence, they also directed their long-accumulated resentment at us."

"In this situation, even if I talk myself hoarse, they still won't let us off the hook."

Upon receiving this answer, Jianlai thought for a moment and said, "So what does this have to do with you surviving?"

"Of course it does matter!"

"Their goal is indeed revenge, but revenge is something that varies from person to person."

"Some people think that killing the enemy's entire family is a satisfying way to get revenge, while others think that making the enemy die in excruciating pain is the best way to get revenge."

"If the owner of this place prefers the quick and decisive way of fighting, then she will definitely start a fight the moment she encounters me and the vice dean."

"But she didn't immediately take action against us who were trapped here."

"I have two guesses about this behavior."

"First, this old hag isn't confident of winning against the vice dean, so she's hesitant to act rashly."

"Secondly, the witch wants to torture us in the most painful way, and then let us die in agony."

Looking at Meng De's serious face, Li Changsheng pursed his lips and said, "So, faced with this situation, you risked your life and took a gamble."

"You bet the witch won't kill you until she gets her emotional satisfaction."

"Yes!"

"The fact that the witch didn't kill me immediately after I separated from the vice dean is enough to prove everything."

"Whether in the eyes of outsiders or in the eyes of the demons and monsters here, I, Mengde, am just an ordinary person who has been lucky."

“Killing an ordinary person casually would give them no sense of accomplishment, which is the fundamental reason why I have survived.”

"What if you lose the bet?"

Jianlai asked a question, and Mengde remained silent for two breaths before saying, "On the surface, it seems like I'm gambling, but actually, I have no other choice."

"This place is extremely strange; even the vice dean can't find a way to break the deadlock."

"If this drags on, both the vice president and I will die here."

"So the only way is for me and the vice dean to separate. He will draw away all the attention of the powerful people here, while I will be responsible for finding the flaws from within."

"I can only succeed in this whole plan, I cannot fail, because if I fail, I will surely die."

After listening to Meng De's words, Li Changsheng thought for a moment and said, "Are you really that confident that you can break the deadlock?"

"I had absolutely no confidence before I came in."

"But after I came up with this idea, I became more and more confident."

"Because this is the only chance of survival that the gentleman left us."

Upon hearing this, Li Changsheng instantly realized something, but for a moment he couldn't grasp the key point.

"Can you tell me more about it?"

"A month ago, the gentleman told us about the dangers of this place and even revealed the identities of the people here."

"Judging from the surface rules, our survival lies in the guardians."

"But since you've said this is a sure-kill situation, how could you possibly leave any loopholes in the rules?"

"Let alone a Quasi-Emperor at the fifth level, even a Quasi-Emperor at the seventh level would only face certain death if they came to this place."

"Since death is inevitable, what is the purpose of setting up this obstacle, sir?"

Looking at Meng De in front of him, Li Changsheng pursed his lips and said, "From the perspective of cultivation, this situation is indeed a certain death."

"The only flaw is the human heart."

"These demons and monsters are obsessed with their own lives. They don't care about their own lives, their own interests, or even our identities."

"The only thing they care about is whether they can take revenge in the way they envision."

"If we can't let them get their revenge, they'll suffer a fate worse than death."

"And what they consider a satisfying revenge is watching us die in pain and despair."

"Furthermore, to ensure that their revenge goes smoothly, they will naturally have to eliminate our protectors first."

"That's right!"

“Their opponents are the protectors, never us. As long as we break away from the protectors, they don’t take us seriously at all.”

This is our only chance to turn things around!
