Chapter 277 Successful Deception
This means that, in their view, Jiang Xingni has been eliminated or is already dead.
Jiang Xing glanced at the location of the main characters, who were some distance away from him, and then at the location of Lu Xianqing's team, which was nearby.
Seeing that the group was about to clash, Jiang Xingni was in no hurry to rush over.
The plot has progressed to this point, so the comic should be updated.
She looked at the bodies of Lu Xianqing and Huang Siying that she had thrown into another space, then turned around and left the place without hesitation.
The points panel on the task panel had completely turned into gibberish; no text could be seen, only a series of symbols that looked like a cat had randomly typed a few letters on a keyboard.
Just then, Jiang Xingni found a secluded spot, sat down cross-legged, and opened her phone to find a notification that the comic had been updated.
The comic has always been told and handled from the perspective of the main characters—more precisely, from Xiao Jiming's perspective.
*
Xiao Jiming passed through the white light curtain and was teleported into the exam instance.
The first thing he did upon opening his eyes was to look around and see which of his teammates were left.
Originally, there was a large group of people following behind him, but now only Song Juexiao remains.
Xiao Jiming and Song Juexiao looked at each other for a while.
Not knowing if anyone was watching, Song Juexiao silently made a hand gesture with his finger.
"Why are you looking at me?" she asked in sign language.
Jiang Xingni no longer needs a translator. Although Song Juexiao can now speak freely and is no longer restricted by the past, Jiang Xingni has still learned a lot from her over the past two months.
After all, Song Juexiao still needed to maintain a facade when they were outside. At this point, Jiang Xingni couldn't very well go over and say, "What did you mean by that gesture? I didn't understand. Could you explain it to me again?"
That sounds so strange.
However, even after practicing for so long and reaching a high level of proficiency, sign language doesn't seem to be of much use when reading comics.
In real life, things are dynamic, but comics naturally wouldn't give Song Juexiao's hands a close-up in such a small matter, breaking down every movement and showing it to Jiang Xingni like a sign language lesson.
Therefore, Jiang Xingni still needed subtitles when reading comics.
[I'm speechless. I was initially relieved that this time my favorite character finally got a solo appearance in the dungeon, but now I realize I can't get into shipping them anymore. What should I do?]
[Hey, can you guys stop trying to sneak up on me? How disgusting to say things like this under the guise of being a CP fan? I'm guessing it's related to Jiang Xingni again.]
[Tsk, well then you guys can keep covering your ears and running forward. It's amazing how you can ship this pure friendship, where there's not even a hint of romance.]
Lines of comments flew past the top of the comic.
Jiang Xingni was too lazy to watch them argue about CP (couple pairing) and go on sale again, so she simply turned off the built-in bullet comments of the comic and sorted out the messages conveyed in the comic.
Xiao Jiming and his team had similar tasks to Jiang Xingni.
Although each person's points-earning tasks are different, the final outcome is similar.
The same necessitates the ultimate horror, causing death to spread continuously among those who are aware of it.
Like some kind of infectious disease, it spreads this strange contamination, naturally resembling a virus in some sense.
The following panel briefly explains where the rest of the main characters are.
Xie Yungui was assigned to a dense, dark forest. The bare branches and gray-black twigs created a desolate scene, much like winter, yet there was no chill in the air.
The moment Xie Yungui lifted his foot, he saw the trees in front of him begin to move.
Wow.
Jiang Xing silently sighed to himself.
Why is it Xie Yungui who has to be trapped here?
The screenwriter clearly didn't intend to create much trouble for Xie Yungui in the preceding obstacles; the goal was simply to help Xie Yungui resolve the matter as soon as possible.
Jiang Xingni wasn't worried about Xie Yungui's safety at all.
Nonsense. A prophet who can travel back and forth across timelines and is on the right path will eventually find his way out of this maze, even if he uses brute force.
She turned on the live chat and, sure enough, saw a string of incredibly familiar comments.
【Aaaaaaah! Who chose this?! Was it a lenient decision?!】
[I'm laughing so hard I'm going crazy. Even the monsters are screaming! Who let this guy in?! Don't they know he's cheating?!]
I thought I could easily get First Blood, but it turns out the enemy team is a hard counter to me!
Pei Zhaoye and Su Yanzhi were assigned to the same group.
Although they were teammates, the two, who weren't really that familiar with each other, looked at each other and simultaneously put on fake smiles.
In the comics, they even gave each of them a close-up of their face.
Pei Zhaoye smiled, his eyes narrowed: "I thought you'd change your coordinates the moment you saw me."
Su Yanzhi gave a forced smile: "I also thought you'd be gone when you entered the dungeon."
The barrage of comments that hadn't been turned off flashed by.
A message saying "Ahhhhhh I'm totally shipping them!" quickly caught Jiang Xingni's eye.
Jiang Xingni quickly turned off the bullet comments.
She didn't actually have any ill feelings towards the girls who shipped couples, because in their eyes, whether it was her or Pei Zhaoye, they were just two-dimensional characters.
Screenwriters will sell each character's story in order to generate traffic and money, hoping that fans of the pairings will find enjoyment in it and thus spend money on it.
It's a good thing that they can find joy in virtual stories.
Jiang Xingni naturally separated the people she saw in the real world from the people she knew.
So when Jiang Xingni saw this sentence, her first thought was—they really know how to find something to criticize.
The two of them only made eye contact for a moment.
On the next page, Jiang Xingni saw herself in the comic again.
However, the difference was that her turn was a fight between her and Lu Xianqing.
The previous page showed two people sneering, but this page has already changed to a new scene of two people fighting.
However, it must be said that the battle scenes were very intense, and the bloody scenes she witnessed were made less realistic and gritty for well-known reasons, thus catering to the readers' viewing experience.
As a result, the chapter ends with Jiang Xingni failing to dodge, having his chest pierced by a finger bone, and then suddenly exploding.
...Jiang Xingni suddenly realized why the plot had ended here this time.
The screenwriter may not have realized it, but Jiang Xingni did.
She successfully deceived the screenwriter.
