Table of Contents | Character Guide

Only a few words from Tang Cuo made Black Hat feel that these two men had started calculating their steps to corner him from the very moment they stepped into the Infinite Market of Dreams.

No, perhaps they started even earlier.

Even if you dont give those items that I want, I can wait. Behind me is the Infinite Market of Dreams, do you think I have to ask you? Black Hat snickered coldly, looking totally unmoved.

If those four items really could be found in the Infinite Market of Dreams, you wouldnt have issued that law. Tang Cuo said bluntly.

In that case, I can find a way to kill you, then those items will naturally fall into my hands.

Sorry, that is out of bounds. And I have resurrection items, you cant kill me.

Tang Cuo blocked Black Hat at every single sentence, refusing to take even half a step back. Then he turned the conversation around: Chong Yanzhang is dead. No matter what purpose he carried that made him help Scarlet, hes already dead. But youre a civil-servant player, theres absolutely no need to help her keep secrets, isnt it? That isnt your purpose either.

Black Hat: Then you tell me, what is my purpose?

Tang Cuo: Four years ago, in the dungeon [July Rose], you, Lin Yandong, the fortune teller Yan Ye and other teammates must have encountered something, or discovered something. Four years later, you use the [Twelve Movements] to open the Infinite Market of Dreams and to gather the four items. They must be related to that same dungeon. I guess Lin Yandong and Yan Ye joined you out of nowhere, so he wasnt really on the same side as you. Even if he saved you later, your current motivations may not be the same.

Black Hat remained silent. He never expected that Tang Cuo already knew so much.

Tang Cuo stared at his eyes that were partially covered by the brim of his hat and his long fringe, then continued: [July Rose] is only one part of [Kingdom Hidden in The Moonlight]. The people who could see the entire dungeon and arrive at the final truth can only be me and Jin Cheng. In the end, its only me and Jin Cheng that can help you achieve your wish. Whose side should you choose to be on, dont you already know?

You have chosen for me, so why are you still asking?

The dungeon has something to do with God.

Hearing Tang Cuo answer a question that had never been asked, Black Hat finally let the smile at the corner of his mouth fade slightly, asking: What else?

But this time, it was Tang Cuos turn to keep silent. He just sat still, his face expressionless as always, while standing beside him was the tall, beautiful Lilith. A handsome guy and a pretty girl, what a pair of big bosses.

This person wont care the slightest bit about saving anyones face when he does business.

This was an impression Black Hat had about Tang Cuo, but after thinking about it, he really had no face to save when dealing with Tang Cuo. After the two sides held a stalemate for a long time, Black Hat finally said: A release order, tranquilising toxin and BS055.

Sure enough, even BS055 was taken from the Infinite Market of Dreams.

Chong Yanzhang?

Thats right. After he finished speaking, Black Hat added another mysteriously: As for whether it was his own will, I dont know.

How are the tranquilising toxin and corpse poison related?

Heh.

Black hat stopped answering. He could reveal some information to Tang Cuo, but it didnt mean he had to take care of everything. Chong Yanzhang took what he took; as for other details beyond that, it was none of his business.

Considering how omniscient you are, you should go investigate yourself.

As he took his leave, Black Hat crossed paths with K, who was standing guard outside the private room. Clearly, Black Hat didnt want to put up any pleasant expression. K shrugged and tossed him a mocking smile: Was that quite a surprise?

Do not call me next time. Black Hat fluttered his sleeves and walked away.

K gazed at his back before turning to look at the private rooms door, seemingly deep in thought.

In the private room, Lilith went back to sit opposite Tang Cuo: Ive never heard of the tranquilising toxin. If Wen Xiaoming is here, maybe hell know.

Its okay, someone here knows. Tang Cuo said, raising his voice slightly, and shouted towards the door: Mr. K, arent you coming in yet?

K seriously didnt want to enter. He wasnt quite in the mood to chat with either Jin Cheng and Tang Cuo, because he found that even if he might seem to benefit from those two on the surface, secretly, he actually suffered.

Even though some of those losses were due to him taking them up on his own volition.

What do you call me for again? That said, in the end, he really opened the door.

Tranquilising toxin. Tang Cuo said concisely.

Should she break in or continue to lurch around?

Zheng Yingyings hand subconsciously stroked the hilt of her dagger, but the members of Lawless reacted very quickly and were very cautious. After a short while, they decided to evacuate all members and change to another location.

She had to retreat for now, but if Lawless wanted to retreat, it meant that if something was really kept in the room, it would also be moved.

Ten minutes later, Zheng Yingying finally managed to verify her guess the living corpse was indeed locked inside.

Why did Lawless imprison a living corpse? What did they want to do? With such doubts, Zheng Yingying mingled with their team all the way to the new base.

Perhaps provoked by the relentless spying and betraying, every Lawless member was a bundle of nerves, but no one suspected the ever-present Zheng Yingying.

The night covered up their actions well. This place was close to the edge of Zone E, where the lights werent very bright.

No one spoke, all feeling a little tired.

Forgettable Face and his teammate were at the forefront because only the core members knew the secret bases location. Of course, Yao Qing also knew.

He wont sell us out completely, will he? The teammate lowered his voice, for fear that what he said might send the whole gang run amok again.

Lets just move first. We have so many bases, he wont have enough time to check one by one. And even if Yao Qing goes to seek refuge with Jin Cheng, Jin Cheng wont believe him so soon. After regaining his composure, his IQ had started to come back.

But then, a man behind him suddenly pointed a finger at the front as he took in a long, cold breath: That, isnt that Yao Qing?

Pop. As Forgettable Face saw the face under the lights, all the nerves in his head that had been stretched to their tightest suddenly snapped. This place wasnt far from the new base they were moving to, yet Yao Qing was waiting here. Isnt he waiting to be beaten to a pulp again?

How outrageous!

Kill him, dont let him do anything dangerous! Move now! As soon as his voice fell, countless attacks flew towards Yao Qing.

It wasnt just Forgettable Face who felt rage bubbling inside. To Lawless, Yao Qing was a disgraceful traitor. At this moment, how could they still think of everything Yao Qing had done for them? In their eyes, only a green light of betrayal shone brightly in the sky.

Wait, I am Yao Qing!

And youre the one we want to beat up!

In the blink that the two sides erupted into a fight, Yao Qing only had enough time to utter that sentence before he was drowned in lights of all colours, including that of bullets and sword auras. The crowds wrath was surging incessantly, nothing able to stop its track.

Unsurprisingly, Yao Qing turned into a flash of light without even being able to produce any effective counterattack. The Lawless member who dealt the final blow also went to jail, but it didnt matter at all.

The important thing was that this despicable traitor had been sent to jail!

Finally tossing a heavy load off his chest, Forgettable Face said crisply: Since Yao Qing is heading to jail, no one will know the location of our base for the time being. Lets move as soon as possible.

One after another, everyone readily agreed.

Only Zheng Yingying found it strange, for she had clearly seen a trace of bewilderment in Yao Qings eyes just now.

Why did a traitor who had run away suddenly stand in their way? What was he surprised about before he died? What could even shock him? The more Zheng Yingying thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong, and the corner of her eye glanced at Miao Qi, who was unconscious and being carried on someones back,

An incredulous guess gradually formed in Zheng Yingyings heart.

No one saw that on the top of a building not far away, someone was laughing.

G10086 Wen Xiaoming threw an empty potion flask into the trash can, clapped his hands and raised his chin slightly, like a little proud peacock.

You never believe that Im a genius in potion-making. Hey, I really am a genius.

The modified version of the transformation potion lasted one hour, which allowed him to change into any form, from animal to human. He spent this hour deceiving everyone with Yao Qings face.

As soon as the real Yao Qing showed up, he was killed by teammates. Now, he was sitting in a cell doubting his whole life.

After a long moment of silence, he slowly spat out: F**king hell.

The author has something to say:

Wen Xiaoming: Praise me now.
