Kaidan Game Train: Abide Rule or Die!

Chapter 2459: Disguise

Bubble Bean bounced up from the bed, the pain of a sharp object piercing his chest seemed to linger. He reached out to touch it, confirmed there was no wound, and no blood, and finally let out a sigh of relief.He then turned his attention to the Yin Yang Master sleeping on a chair nearby. He intended to wake him up, but when he looked over, he found the other staring straight at him with open eyes. No one can sleep with their eyes open, yet he was snoring away.

Bubble Bean walked over in a few steps and slapped him on the face.

With a crisp sound, the Yin Yang Master seemed to awaken from a dream. He looked ahead, confused, just as before, as if he didn’t see Bubble Bean. His gaze swept across the bed and then retracted, before he turned over to continue sleeping.

"Sleep, sleep, sleep all you know to do is sleep, if someone came to kill you, you wouldn’t even know!" Bubble Bean cursed, but the Yin Yang Master seemed not to hear, without reaction. Just as Bubble Bean was about to kick him out of the chair, the corner of his eye spotted an extra person on his bed, shocking him — there was another him!

Bubble Bean wasn’t sure if he was still dreaming, the interference device on his body had no effect, and the props hadn’t detected anyone nearby. The Yin Yang Master was sleeping fine, but it seemed only he had fallen into some strange trap.

Was it mental interference, or was he already found by a hidden friend? He did hear someone calling his player nickname...

Bubble Bean stood there for two seconds, then walked back to the bedside and flipped the person over — it was indeed himself, with a prop still stuck in his chest.

"Stop fooling around!" Bubble Bean covered himself with several layers of defense props, held two life-saving props in his hands, and then walked out of the wooden house.

To him, everything was the same as during the day, even Chi Cai and others were sleeping normally. For a moment, he didn’t know whom to look for.

But just then, a shout came from the forest side, and a figure seemed to move from afar. As it approached, it became easy to recognize that familiar figure was Xu Huo.

"Alright, so it’s really you, damn you, you even pretend quite convincingly!"

Bubble Bean gave a low shout, and the props immediately struck, only for the figure to vanish as the mist in front was scattered!

"Don’t think that just because you have an instance helping to cover your tracks you can fool anyone!"

Dozens of small arrows appeared before the wooden house. Bubble Bean waved his hand, and they flew off in different directions, quickly weaving through the forest. Though their power seemed weak, each time they pierced a tree, they could directly knock down large trees.

As a swath of trees fell, another prop rose into the sky — it was a lighting prop. The strong light illuminated the forest, together with the flying arrows, lighting up the forest before and behind the wooden house, making it impossible to hide anyone.

Going further would exceed his perception range, weakening the effect of his props’ attacks... Bubble Bean was pondering whether to go out and have a look, but didn’t expect a flying arrow to suddenly change course, penetrating his throat at lightning speed!

Blood sprayed from his throat, and Bubble Bean went head first, tumbling down the steps in front of the wooden house.

Then, he bounced off the bed once more.

Realizing he wasn’t dead, cold sweat started to drip down Bubble Bean’s forehead. He didn’t understand what the situation was now, nor how to escape it. But the two instances of "death" reminded him, if he didn’t find someone, he might be stuck here until he truly died.

He quietly got out of bed, not planning to waste time this time, and entered the forest head-on.

"Where are you going?" The voice of the Yin Yang Master suddenly rang out.

Bubble Bean spun around to find him standing behind him, startled uncontrollably, he responded, "Someone outside called me."

"You can’t go out," the Yin Yang Master said. "It’s dangerous outside."

Bubble Bean stared at him, "Then come with me."

The Yin Yang Master didn’t blink, simply repeated, "You can’t go out, it’s dangerous outside."

Bubble Bean noticed something was wrong with him. He was about to use a prop to separate him when unexpectedly, the Yin Yang Master struck first, slitting his throat in one swift motion!

"You can’t go out, it’s dangerous outside..."

Hearing these words, Bubble Bean unwillingly closed his eyes.

Once again, he woke up, still on the bed, the Yin Yang Master sleeping with his back to him. The house was quiet, as was the outside, the nearby trees weren’t damaged, everything seemed as if it hadn’t happened, only he had repeatedly died a few times.

The deaths were certainly fake, but Bubble Bean also understood if this continued, the next time he fell, he might not wake up!

"If you don’t let me go out, I insist on going out, let’s see what tricks you’re up to!"

With immense energy released by a prop, the entire wooden house exploded, Bubble Bean bypassed the obstructing Yin Yang Master, and charged into the forest, following the direction of the voices.

He didn’t see anyone, even the sounds disappeared, so he shouted in the forest, "Xu, come out!"

The sounds echoed in the forest, in the silence, he could hear the voice go far, seemingly endless.

He shouted again and again, continuously using props in the forest, leaving no grass or tree untouched wherever he went. He thought this would force Xu Huo out, but as soon as he stepped into the forest, he entered an absolutely dangerous environment.

Even Xu Huo only realized when someone called him out.

He speculated that the figure and voice calling out were merely reenactments of past events, lone players compared to companions more easily fall into this state. Entering this state doesn’t necessarily mean being targeted by a hidden friend, but if a hidden friend wants to take a player away, they would certainly use this special state.

The game didn’t provide clear role-playing rules, and up until now, the players he encountered seemed to not have the chance to actually play any roles, so he planned to impersonate once and try.

Using mental interference to kill Bubble Bean multiple times was actually deepening the suggestion, forbidding him to go out, thus making him go out — this was a relatively simple method to successfully lure out a Rank-B player.

Of course, he didn’t know what to do after bringing someone out, but in any case, first, get them out.

Thus, the space changes caused by Bubble Bean entering the forest surprised him greatly.

He could feel a subtle force sweeping over him, constantly enveloping him, and Bubble Bean too. Bubble Bean’s seemingly earth-shattering way of leaving the house was actually just his imagination, he had merely left the wooden house quietly. The alerted Yin Yang Master and Chi Cai were tailing behind, but their attention remained focused on Bubble Bean, none noticing Xu Huo just meters away.
