The Abyssal Garden: No Room for the Idle-Chapter 114 - 111 Huge Anomaly?

"..."

Su Qi stared at the familiar storage room and opened its door.

He then saw those twelve ordinary people again, looking terrified at the small monster outside the glass...

Alright.

Back to square one.

I came here for a killing spree in the new mode, why has it become similar to a solo instance?

It seems like the others don't have main quests.

This intelligence from the Left Hand... the deviation is a bit too big.

"No wonder people say you can't trust things that are free, if the price is too low you fear it might bring disease."

Su Qi silently regarded the scene before him.

He was contemplating why everything had reset and started all over again.

"In most games, this kind of situation usually happens when the player dies, the plot fails, or a key NPC dies, and then it resets to the beginning."

Su Qi obviously hadn't died, and if they were to go by the previous situation, they could have continued forward with the remaining people to a safe zone.

So thinking over and over again, the death of a key character... maybe that was the reason for everything resetting.

If following this line of thought.

Then the question arises,

"Who is that key character?"

Among the twelve ordinary people, seven had died from the toxin stingers.

Su Qi scrutinized them closely and found nothing special; he wasn't in a hurry either... this time he switched to a bag of nuts, contaminated too but it didn't affect the taste, and was more suited to Su Qi's physical constitution.

Then next,

it was the standard procedure... The man arrived, killed the monster trying to break in, and led them to leave for the safe zone.

"Is there any other route?"

Su Qi asked.

The man gave him a strange look, shaking his head, "No more, the nearest safe zone is only through this route."

"Alright, but before we prepare to leave, I need to do something first."

"?"

The white-collar looked at Su Qi approaching him, a look of horror on his face.

"Ah!"

One minute later.

The group once again cautiously stepped onto the street, the white-collar man looking sullenly at Su Qi, his phone already confiscated and turned off.

"Big brother, does it taste good?" The little girl blinked her big Cardilan eyes again, her fair cheeks somewhat coy, gazing at the nuts in his hand.

"This time it's cicada pupa flavored."

And soon.

They were outside the shop again.

"Be careful, keep silent, follow me and hide! Don't make any noise!" The man's commands were exact, even his tone was identical.

Everyone started towards the only open shop on the side.

Meanwhile.

Su Qi had already moved the bicycle ahead of time, avoided the nails, and even laid the signboard down.

"..."

Everyone looked perplexed at Su Qi's actions, then carefully entered the shop.

Twenty seconds later.

"Hush."

The man extended his finger, and everyone fell silent... watching the street's monster, they trembled.

Just when Su Qi thought they had made it.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, a balloon in the shop burst!

Everyone's faces paled.

Only Su Qi fell into silence: "...."

This was no longer a mere coincidence, no acting involved.

Or is this the rule?

Things that are destined to happen, will indeed happen?

What followed was naturally another fight, Su Qi going all out with his firepower... since it had happened already, just kill them straight.

Good news, the monster was killed.

Bad news, there were still casualties.

Good news, two people died but it didn't reset, indicating his guess was right, to protect the key character well.

Bad news, they had lingered too long, attracting the surrounding monsters.

"..."

"What should we do?" The man couldn't help but look at Su Qi.

"What else can you do? Just keep your ID in your mouth."

Su Qi looked at the dense crowd of monsters, knowing he had to go back, but before doing so... he decided to kill a few.

He turned on the speakers and grabbed the Thunderclap Bone Shattering Hammer.

It took about half a minute.

Everyone was killed by the monsters, the timing of death and the reset's twisted sensation clearly lagged.

...

Su Qi found himself back in the storage room once more, sitting up from the darkness.

He muttered softly,

"As it stands, I must protect this key person, and I still don't know if this reset will keep happening indefinitely."

Of course, there was an even more brutal method, which was to do it himself, kill one by one, and find the person within one cycle.

However, as a kind, gentle, sunny, cheerful young man, this went against his character setting.

"Or should I let the monsters do it, more humane maybe?"

Although Su Qi said this, he was already thinking of ways to break the situation, firstly to keep deaths to a minimum, and secondly to quickly deal with the fight. Once other monsters were alerted, it would naturally be extremely dangerous.

The monsters in this fog seemed to be much more numerous than expected.

Given that,

he went through the process again... Su Qi clearly took it much more seriously, even switching his snacks to sugar.

Watching the little girl hesitate to speak.

Su Qi handed her a piece of candy: "Here, eat this."

"Thank you, big brother."

"No need for thanks... pay me back next time, with one candy per day as interest."

The middle-aged women couldn't help but look towards Su Qi.

Is this even human speech?

The little girl, however, nodded seriously. The candy was stored in the Item Slot as a snack and wasn't contaminated, and anything that stayed in Su Qi's Item Slot was tasty.

Soon.

They arrived at the shop.

Su Qi realized that these five monsters were an unavoidable checkpoint, with little chance to skip it. He might as well go all out instead of being constrained.

"...What do you plan to do?" The man asked, noticing Su Qi with the speakers, his eyelids twitching.

"Next, I'll draw them away, and you all should use this time to enter a safe zone."

The man's face changed slightly, "But you... you'll die."

"Somebody has to make a sacrifice, right?" Su Qi patted his shoulder, his smile firm yet determined.

The man watched, shocked, as Su Qi walked away from the shop, his eyes revealing complex emotions.

Such a noble sacrifice!

The little girl opened her mouth to speak, but the middle-aged woman quickly covered it.

And the five monsters had already noticed Su Qi's figure and rapidly attacked him, then he drew them away.

The man growled, "Let's hurry!"

Despite his youth, he had such awareness... he absolutely couldn't let him down.

The little girl looked back one last time, but she couldn't see anything through the fog.

At this moment.

Su Qi... was like a fish back in water.

He could finally fight alone.

As soon as he turned on the speakers, the Thunderclap Bone Shattering Hammer burst out with incredible strength, slaughtering wildly!

The new mode was just a farming mode; it didn't have many roundabout ways, but the biggest problem was Physical Strength. With a large number of monsters, continuous combat and bursts gave him an advantage, but if it went on too long, monsters would come from all directions, giving no chance to breathe.

"Though I don't know why a storyline has appeared here, I've already sent them through, and according to the timing, they should be reaching the safe zone soon."

No reset meant they were still alive.

After another five minutes, bodies surrounded Su Qi, he was panting slightly but his eyes were filled with exhilaration. His body was cleansed by liquid metal, though the Thunderclap Bone Shattering Hammer was stained with various blood and flesh.

"One Monster equals one Spiritual Ability Point, currently just hit 50, this is harder to farm than I thought, there hasn't been a reset so they must have entered the safe zone."

At that moment.

A prompt appeared in front of Su Qi.

"[...]"

"[...]"

"Disconnected?"

The servers of Abyssal Paradise are just like this?

"Bang!"

Su Qi smashed a monster that lunged at him into pulp, unsure of the situation. The disconnection was just a jest; after all, those who know understand that Abyssal Paradise isn't just any ordinary game.

And more messages slowly popped up.

"[...please...note, a massive abnormality... has occurred in the world...players inhabit...]"

"[The system... cannot... intervene...]"

"[...please, players... find your own way to escape...]"
