When Lin Sanjiu looked at Roth's clothing store from afar again, she saw that its door was wide open as if it was inviting passersby to enter. Even the afternoon sun could not shine through the gloomy and silent darkness behind the door. Lin Sanjiu didn't know if the heavy smoker had finally calmed down or he didn't notice Lin Sanjiu, who was two blocks away from the shop. This time, she managed to leave the area where Bonnie Bunny was without making a sound. She could still feel the heavy smoker's gaze lingering on her back, and she couldn't get rid of it.
After the initial shock, Lin Sanjiu thought about it carefully and became optimistic.
Even though the heavy smoker's attack with the sweater and the necklace was malicious, it wasn't hard to guard against. Rather than saying he was dangerous, he was more annoying. Since he could escape from Bonnie Bunny and protect himself until now, perhaps Bonnie Bunny couldn't be compared to Puppeteer. After all, rumors couldn't be trusted.
If the heavy smoker could protect himself, then Hei Zeji definitely wouldn't have a problem.
With this thought in mind, Lin Sanjiu tilted her head and glanced at Raven Jiang from the corner of her eye. He was following closely behind her. Raven Jiang followed every step she took. Even though he knew that there was nothing wrong with him, every step he took was on the same spot that Lin Sanjiu had stepped on. No matter where he went, he would never forget the mop in his hand. He looked like a monk with a staff in his hand.
Without a doubt, this young man didn't want to go with her. There was a huge amount of information in this game. No one would dare to say that they could explain everything in their first try. Therefore, even after listening to his explanation, Lin Sanjiu still used both the carrot and the stick to persuade the two of them to go together. This way, she could better benefit from the experience of Raven River.
In exchange, Lin Sanjiu agreed to let him go to the places that Raven Jiang had never visited before. She would help him explore the place first. If they couldn't find Hei Zeji, they could go to the hospital first.
"This kind of ground is supposed to be safe," Raven Jiang craned his neck and looked over her shoulder. "When I registered, I stepped on the brick ground, so it means that it is safe. But, you have to be careful of those weeds. "
"Won't the ground that I stepped on turn into a VA?" Lin Sanjiu stopped outside the weeds and asked.
They were now standing on the sidewalk of a large commercial street, and in the distance was a small circular square surrounded by buildings of various styles. The buildings that used to be brightly lit at night were now gloomy and dejected in the daytime. The decorative green plants and flowers seemed to have absorbed nutrients from the dead society and were happily spreading and expanding. Green vines swam through the gaps between the bricks like veins, and the whole small square was half-hidden by the weeds.
"In your dreams."
Crow Jiang snorted. "I don't even know how VA's location was decided … Either way, it's pretty sinister. You know what? That kind of simple surface that was only covered with cement had become VA at least twice. If you happen to cross a lane one second, the next you'll be lying on a hospital bed, amputated all the way to your belly button. "
Lin Sanjiu's internal organs fell out of her imagination with a splash.
"You've never been to a hospital before," she muttered in a low voice as she carefully stepped on the light red square brick.
After the two of them set off, they walked through the "safe zones" that they had encountered before. So far, most of the man-made objects, such as the rectangular room, did not have lava behind the doors and windows, and this was the first time they had encountered a plant since the beginning of this round.
"Wait, there's a bookstore over there." Raven River called out to her in a low voice. "A place with text is more likely to have player information. We still don't know how many players there are in this area. Let's go check it out first."
She had been wearing metal gloves on her hands. She walked up and smashed the locked glass door with a few punches.

Seeing that Crow Jiang was silent, she continued to ask, "The first time I saw lava, it was in a ring-shaped object. At first, I thought that the ring represented a volcanic crater, but now I know that it has nothing to do with volcanic craters. As long as it can accommodate it, there might be lava anywhere. "
"Aren't you quite knowledgeable about it?"
"No, no. What I mean is," Lin Sanjiu's feet creaked as she walked. She stopped and pointed to a spot on the ground. "Could the VA location be in a place as detailed as' a carpet dotted with foreign objects'? Or … "
She walked to a round table that was used to display new books. She picked up a book and flipped through a few pages. "Is it possible for lava to be sandwiched in a book?"
"That's right." Raven River shrugged his shoulders as he stood outside the door. "There might be even stranger locations than this … You can't think of them, but there is no place that the game can't think of. However, such a strange place is very rare. After all, think about it. If you sandwiched a VA in a book, I don't think there are many posthumans that could be swallowed by it. "
In other words, it was impossible to guard against it.
Lin Sanjiu put down the book and followed Raven Jiang's instructions. She walked around the stairs of the escalator and placed her hand between the gaps of the bookshelves. She touched a light tube hanging down from the ceiling … When she saw that the goose was still alive and well, she walked into the bookstore and started searching for information about the players.
"That's weird," he said without turning his head. "We have been out from the registration point for about thirty minutes and we have been to many places. Why is it so safe everywhere?"
"Why do you sound like this is a bad thing?"
"From a certain point of view, it is not good," he tied the mop to his back and tossed all the items that did not meet the standard onto the ground. Lin Sanjiu had a lot of maps that she could not find in the first place. She thought for a while and picked one up.
"Just think about it. The more things we encounter, the more difficult it is for us to remember what they are. Besides, we are humans, so it's inevitable that we will become careless. The VA is the best at swallowing — Ah, I got it! "
There were so many books, biographies, albums, novels, but none of them had any information about the players. Instead, the information appeared on the bookstore staff's sign-in sheet.
"Number of registered players: 5. Illegal population: 2." Apart from this sentence on the cover page, there was also a rough area for reference. Perhaps it was because the area this time was larger.
Both of them quickly circled the corresponding 30 blocks on the map. When they flipped to the first page, they found that the information about the players was squeezed together with the staff's sign-in sheet.
"Player 1, Raven River. Male. Surviving player from the previous 3 rounds. Currently in his 4th round. Survival rate is medium high. "
"Player 2, Lin Sanjiu. Female. New player. Currently in his 1st round. Survival rate is very high. "
"You haven't been swallowed by the VA, so why did your survival rate drop?" Lin Sanjiu asked after comparing their survival rates. Raven River snorted through his nose, "I was ambushed. When there is a battle between players, if you are injured enough, your survival rate will also drop. "
"Could it be that Hei Zeji was ambushed?"
"Player 3, Hei Zeji. Male. Surviving player from the previous 1 round. Currently in his 2nd round. Survival rate is very low. "
"He's still here!" Lin Sanjiu was elated when she saw that. She pointed at the small line of words and said, "Thank goodness he's not dead!"
"It's too early for you to be happy," Crow Jiang glanced at him expressionlessly. "I don't know if Bonnie Bunny has him as a target, but it does mean one thing. Who knows where this person is looking for player information."
Lin Sanjiu was stunned for a moment. After she thought about it again, she understood.
If Hei Zeji saw her name, there was no reason for him not to look for her. Instead, he would run away. He had survived one round, but he was still so lousy.
She sighed inwardly and continued to scroll down.
"Player 4, Yuan Xiangxi. Male. Surviving player from the previous 71 rounds. Currently in his 72nd round. Survival rate is low. "
This was the Watermelon Taro from the register. Lin Sanjiu had just flipped to the last page, but before she could see the player's information on the second page, she flipped back.
"That can't be right."
"Surviving player from the previous 71 rounds?" Raven River's face was almost plastered to the page. "Is it really 71? Not 11? Also, why is there no survival rate? "
The news was indeed shocking, but that wasn't the reason why Lin Sanjiu couldn't sort out her thoughts for a long time.
"Why is a person who has participated in 71 rounds of VA still trying to register a fake name until this round? Shouldn't he know that he can't register a fake name? "
Lin Sanjiu couldn't think of a suitable answer no matter how hard she thought. If she said that he was trying to confuse others, they would know something was wrong when they saw the player's information. However, it didn't seem like he was trying to register a fake name. She was afraid that she wouldn't be able to read the last player's information if she delayed any further. She quickly put her thoughts aside and flipped to the second page.
"Player 5, Bonnie Bunny. Female. Surviving player from the previous 13 rounds. Currently in her 14th round. Survival rate is very high. "
"Why didn't I know that everyone is migrating together?"
Raven River flicked the page with his finger and cursed under his breath, "That black something came here before us … What's going on with Bonnie Bunny? Has she been following us all this while? "
"Look."
Lin Sanjiu pointed at Bonnie Bunny's information and called out to him, "Her survival rate was originally very high, but now it's extremely high."
Raven River paused for a moment, "She has already sent away an illegal person. When a player is in the game, their survival rate will slowly recover, but it's impossible to jump from low to extremely high in one go. "
"Besides, she's either following us or Hei Zeji," Lin Sanjiu said in a low voice.
Along the way, she had used her hypersensory to scan her surroundings a few times. She was sure that there was no one around them. Bonnie Bunny most likely entered this commercial street from another route. Perhaps, she was following Hei Zeji. Was it because he was a tough nut to crack, so she was waiting for an opportunity to strike?
"If Bonnie Bunny can send away an illegal person, it means that she already knows the location of the lava pool," Raven River gulped and said dryly, "Now, she is in the same district as us …"
Without waiting for him to finish his sentence, Lin Sanjiu rushed out of the bookstore and shouted, "Hei Zeji!"
"What are you doing?" Raven River was startled. He lowered his voice and shouted at the door, "Are you afraid that Bonnie Bunny can't find us?"
"I'm going out to call for her," Lin Sanjiu replied in a soft voice, "I'll lure her over. You're still safe."
Raven River nodded his head doubtfully. He grabbed the mop and quickly retreated to a more secluded and quiet corner of the bookstore. He didn't forget to watch his feet carefully so that he wouldn't step on anything that she hadn't touched before. When he passed by a corner, an arm suddenly stretched out from behind the wall, grabbed his face, and dragged him behind the wall.
