Infinite: Dawn Game

Chapter 757 Fighting

It's not very noticeable when she's walking normally, but when she walks in high heels, her subconscious hip lifts and swaying movements are incredibly graceful and beautiful—you can't tell at all that the nun has a problem with her legs.

Is it because of those twisted, flesh-colored scars on my ankle?

Yes... such a terrifying and ugly scab, how could the injury to the ankle at that time have been minor?

Mu Gui lowered his eyes and pursed his lips, but showed no intention of provoking the nun any further.

The nun clearly didn't want him to continue the conversation, and if he didn't have the sense to shut up, he'd really be asking for trouble.

but……

Shepherd couldn't help but glance at the nun's legs again, secretly wondering what had happened to her ankle to cause such a severe injury—

Don't you want your eyes anymore?

The nun in front said coldly, "What are you looking at?"

"!" Mu Gui shuddered and quickly shook his head: "No, I wasn't looking at anything..."

The nun was in a bad mood and snorted coldly upon hearing this.

"That would be for the best, Pastor. Behave yourself. I don't need you. There are plenty of people willing to be my 'medicine victims.'"

"Yes Yes."

The nun was both hot and frightened, and dared not look up at the nun again.

After the nun could no longer feel the gaze behind her, she blinked slowly. The inexplicable soreness in her eyes vanished in an instant—no, a little bit remained.

For example... she's really annoyed right now, and also wants to... find a few "drug users" to try the new drug.

inside the room.

After confirming that the giant centipede was tucked under his collar, Zhou Yuanyang didn't do anything more. He slowly walked out of the room, closed the door, and headed out of the building.

Yes, he even brought a large black umbrella.

Summers in town are too hot.

Creatures like centipedes cannot withstand heat.

The large centipede that had been hiding under Zhou Yuanyang's collar slowly crawled out half of its body after Zhou Yuanyang opened the umbrella.

"Is it hot?"

Zhou Yuanyang reached out and touched the head of the giant centipede, smiling slightly:

"It'll be soon, can you just be a little more patient?"

The giant centipede hissed and rubbed listlessly against his hand before shrinking back.

Zhou Yuanyang seemed to chuckle, but then again, he didn't.

As he slowly walked out of the building with his umbrella, the man standing not far away with his back to him seemed to realize something and slowly turned around.

"coming."

Lu Chusheng looked at Zhou Yuanyang, fine beads of sweat on his forehead hidden by his hair. He glanced at his watch and said succinctly:

"How about the old coffee shop?"

"……sure."

After a few seconds of silence, Zhou Yuanyang nodded slightly. The large centipede under his collar seemed to be suffering from the heat, crawling around under his clothes incessantly, causing an itchy and slightly stinging sensation.

"You came together?"

As Lu Chusheng nodded and led the way, he casually asked a question, seemingly unintentionally.

"Ah."

Zhou Yuanyang smiled and nodded: "She'll be scared if she's alone, Brother Lu."

"..."

Lu Chusheng's expression remained unchanged, but his gaze held a hint of complexity:

"Are you still unwilling to give up?"

Why give up?

The pace of their conversation quickened, and the heat intensified with their faster steps, to the point that both of them were quite agitated.

“I won’t give up,” Zhou Yuanyang said. “Anything can happen in the Dawn Game, why should I give up?”

"..."

Lu Chusheng's lips moved, but he didn't say a word.

The two walked silently into the familiar coffee shop and ordered from the counter where part-time players were already present.

Do you have any private rooms?

Lu Chusheng politely inquired of the part-time female gamer wearing a pink apron behind the front desk.

The female gamer, who was working part-time, clearly recognized him. Her expression showed barely suppressed excitement, and she quickly nodded upon hearing this.

"Yes, yes, oh wait, guests, but private rooms... private rooms require points to use..."

"How much? Use my points."

Zhou Yuanyang, standing nearby, picked up where Lu Chusheng left off, and said with a smile to the part-time female gamer:

How long have you been working here?

The part-time female gamer first saw his half-face, which was intact and indistinguishable from his own, and just as she was showing her amazement, she saw Zhou Yuanyang's half-face, which had been burned.

"...one, one week."

The female player didn't dare to stare at Zhou Yuan looking up, and when she responded with her head down, she took out a card reader that looked like one in the real world.

"What would you two like to drink? I can make a meal here—"

"Two Americanos, no sugar is fine."

As Lu Chusheng spoke, he turned his head to look at Zhou Yuanyang, his words carrying a hidden meaning: "Is there anything else you'd like to order?"

“I won’t have an Americano,” Zhou Yuanyang said with a smile, breaking with his usual habit. “I’ll have a latte instead of the Americano, 50% sugar, and a mango mousse as well, please.”

"..."

Lu Chusheng frowned almost imperceptibly but said nothing. After confirming the location of the private room with the part-time female gamer, he left the front desk.

Click.

As soon as the door to the private room was pushed open, the faint aroma of coffee that wafted out made both of them pause in their tracks.

"It's been a long time since I've been here."

Zhou Yuanyang walked to his seat first, pulled out a sofa chair, sat down, and casually glanced at the interior of the private room, sighing:

"Everything has changed. The coffee shop used to be unmanned and self-service, but now they're even hiring gamers as employees."

"This is a good thing, right? Hmm, Brother Lu?"

Lu Chusheng pulled out the chair opposite Zhou Yuanyang and sat down. Upon hearing this, he gave a soft "hmm," then frowned and said:

"The changes are too drastic, don't you think something's strange?"

"Is there anything strange about Dawn Games?"

Zhou Yuanyang seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world. "Isn't it strange that we can be resurrected after we die, and can still live like normal people in this absurd world?"

Lu Chusheng was speechless.

But he did have a reason for coming to see Zhou Yuanyang this time—"Do you want to talk to me about something secret?"

Zhou Yuanyang looked the same as before; apart from the other half of his burned face, he looked as gentle and refined as ever.

"Brother Lu, you haven't come to see me in a long time."

Zhou Yuanyang sighed with emotion.

"About how long has it been? A year, two years? Or three years?"

"It's been more than two years."

Lu Chusheng finally spoke, quietly watching the bulge moving beneath Zhou Yuanyang's collar, as if he were seeing something incredibly familiar through the fabric.

“It’s been more than two years already.” Zhou Yuanyang chuckled softly. “I’ve been a member of the Black Robe Church for almost three years now.”

“Yes,” Lu Chusheng nodded, “It’s been almost three years since you left the inspection team.”

"..."

Zhou Yuanyang's laughter abruptly stopped.

After a long while, he suddenly curled the corners of his mouth, his disfigured half of his face looking like a ghost in the dim light of the private room.

"So what is it about me, a traitor and a cultist who joined the Black Robe Church, that would warrant Captain Lu coming to find me personally?"

Zhou Yuanyang: "Captain Lu, shouldn't you make this reason clear before we start talking?"
