The application for revocation of permissions has been denied, and the permissions remain in effect.
Due to repeated violations by Gui Jing and Tour Guide Yun Zhi Yue, this serves as a formal warning to adhere to established rules. Should any complaints from bound travelers be detected, extreme measures will be taken.
Yun Zhi Yue felt her body go limp, sitting dazed on the ground as the Reincarnation Stone within her soul laughed mockingly, ridiculing her for being too clever for her own good.
Soon enough, she would face the consequences.
The scene outside the bus changed dramatically; a moment later, they found themselves in a city resembling that of humans, with torrential rain pouring down on the Dark Red Bus. Outside, people hurried by, all carrying identical Crimson Umbrellas that obscured their faces. The sky was overcast with dark clouds, and the air was damp and chilly.
Without time to check the sightseeing information, Yun Zhi Yue quickly rushed towards Song Huai. Gui Jing was particularly unfriendly towards the tour guide; entering this place was an offense to certain entities, akin to a situation where two tigers cannot coexist. Thus, the guide would undoubtedly be targeted.
This was one of the rare instances where an eerie entity would take on the role of an Eerie Guide. She sought to mask herself with the aura of travelers, a tactic her Puppet Body had devised. In the past, she had bound travelers without offering any compensation.
In essence, this Eerie Game seemed intent on making things difficult for her—perhaps due to a petty grudge stemming from her earlier insolence.
Even though she moved quickly, she could not escape her fate. A Crimson Umbrella suddenly appeared inside the bus, moving so fast that it left only an afterimage in its wake. It pierced through Yun Zhi Yue's heart, pinning her against the front windshield of the bus.
Black smoke surged from her wound like blood; her delicate face turned pale, and even the small mole on her nose began to fade.
"Oh my God, Yun Zhi Yue!" Bai Miao Miao stood up, wanting to rush over but was held back by Jiang Bai. The other players were equally alarmed; if the tour guide could be nearly killed in an instant, what would happen to them?
At that moment, Song Huai had reached Yun Zhi Yue's side and grasped her hand. Yu Yue used a silver chain to pull at the handle of the Red Umbrella. The Crimson Umbrella trembled as if shaken by the silver chain; as more black smoke flowed from Yun Zhi Yue's wound, it ultimately dissipated into nothingness.
As her body fell limp, Song Huai caught her in his arms and frowned at the sight of the continuing black smoke from her wound.
Yun Zhi Yue's arm revealed a black-red gradient Devouring Flower Totem; the flower transformed from a pattern into three dimensions, its roots embedding into Yun Zhi Yue's body while its large head burrowed into her pierced chest.
The black smoke began to retract, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The tour guide was crucial; at least all information about sightseeing spots was in their hands. Without a guide, players would be like blind men—unable to discern direction or even think about clearing the game.
Jiang Bai raised an eyebrow. "It seems this attraction is quite unfriendly. When I went to Gui Jing before, the tour guide seemed to be targeted as well, but there was no instant kill at the start."
Yun Zhi Yue straightened up, supporting herself on Song Huai's shoulder, her pale lips beginning to regain their color. "Stop gloating. None of you can escape; it's just a matter of the order in which it happens."
"If even the bus can't stop us, it means we have no safe haven. Death can come at any time and place. Sleeping is just asking for it. I can afford to be strange and not sleep, but what about you?"
Jiang Bai Miao Se's expression grew serious. "Let's hear about the attraction. Since we're here, there's no point in hiding."
Yun Zhi Yue tightened her grip around Song Huai's neck and slowly began to speak. "This attraction is called Yu City. It rains all year round, yet no buildings have ever been submerged. The people living here have gradually gotten used to rainy days."
"Yu City has gained fame for this reason, attracting many tourists. However, once they arrive, they can never leave; they can only settle down in Yu City. We are just another batch of tourists who refuse to believe in superstitions."
Bai Miao Miao opened her mouth wide in surprise. "Is that it? No other hints?"
