“What on earth is this?”
Even though they knew this was a world in a painting, when everyone saw the huge eyes that had nothing to do with reality, they deeply realized the nature of this world for the first time.
Could it be that the owner of the house they met now was not the evil boss of this world? However, it was not mentioned at all in the main mission completed by the system. Or were these eyes also conjured by the owner of the house?
Only Gu Wuji when he saw those terrifying eyes, felt a strong sense of familiarity and understood everything.
“It looks like it’s Jin Yu… Should I say that he came at the right time?” Gu Wuji was actually worried about how to deal with the owner of the house.
After all, the other party hid his true strength when he possessed him before. Now after being exposed, his strength had simply multiplied exponentially. After all, not only did the owner of this house have a strong obsession, but he was also self-taught and knew so many weird spells. He was not as easy to deal with as ordinary ghosts.
The most important thing was that this copy was basically a world in a painting created by the other party. It could be said that everything in it was controlled by the owner of the house. It was also extremely difficult for players like them to deal with.
“Hasn’t the owner of this house been jealous of Jin Yu for so long? Now that the other party has appeared, maybe they can fight, and then we can take the opportunity to escape.” Gu Wuji thought this way.
After seeing those eyes, the owner of the house looked at Gu Wuji with gritted teeth, “Even if he comes, I have to possess your soul first… As long as I can complete the painting, even that guy…”
Gu Wuji keenly noticed the house owner’s words and remembered them deeply in his mind.
The next moment, the dark monsters around him swarmed towards Gu Wuji. Not only that, even the owner of the house pounced directly on him. He couldn’t wait that long anymore.
As for the portraits of people fighting together, the owner probably thought they were too embarrassing and didn’t want to pay attention to them.
The other players were sweating coldly as they dealt with these monsters, but at this time, these strange monsters with the power of regeneration showed no interest in them at all, and crazily crowded towards Gu Wuji’s direction.
Rong Qingman’s face was extremely ugly, and he secretly said in his heart: “It seems that I can only use that trick now.” He originally wanted to save this item that he had few chances to use until he entered the advanced dungeon, but compared to Gu Wuji’s life being at stake, use of such a prop was nothing.
A fragment of something appeared in his hand. This was something Rong Qingman had taken from a copy before. In that copy, everyone except him killed each other to fight for such a thing, and in the end all of them were killed.
Although Rong Qingman lived to the end, he failed to obtain such a thing, and what he had obtained now were only some of its fragments.
But the power that this fragment could exert was already astonishing. It could even summon part of the extremely terrifying boss. You must know that the boss was called God by the people in the dungeon. Its true form was probably only available in high-level dungeons. A terrifying existence…
Just when Rong Qingman was about to use it, Gu Wuji had already opened the pocket watch in his arms.
There was a flash of golden light in the room, and a figure with a faint golden light suddenly appeared in front of Gu Wuji. His figure was much more solid than before, and one could almost tell that he looked like a handsome blond man.
He caused all the monsters around him that were attacking Gu Wuji to come to a standstill. Even the owner of the house was affected by it, so his movements became slower, and the expression on his face became even more angry.
But the fragment in Rong Qingman’s hand started to glow in response. He himself was shocked, “What on earth is this…”
After all, the pocket watch was just a defensive item. It only took one or two breaths for the light to dissipate, but that was enough.
The next moment, while Gu Wuji was putting away his pocket watch, the sound of breaking could be heard from the window. Walking in was a man with a handsome appearance. He looked like an ordinary person at first glance, with a shy smile on his face.
If it weren’t for the huge pair of eyes still following behind him, looking around eerily, everyone else would almost have thought that this person was an ordinary person who accidentally wandered in.
This man looked extremely familiar to Gu Wuji. He was showing exactly the harmless image disguise used by the Jin Yu, whom he had met in the abandoned hospital.
Even he was deceived by the other party at that time, and almost died in that world in the end… Of course, people like Gu Wuji rarely had a discerning eye for others. He basically thought that most people were good people.
If Jin Yu could only have part of the power in other people’s portraits, and this was only an intermediate copy, it would still limit his power. Didn’t this mean that he would be much easier to deal with? Gu Wuji breathed a sigh of relief when he realized this.
“It seems like it’s quite lively here.” Jin Yu raised his eyebrows and looked over.
As his eyes swept over the surrounding portraits and statues, although there was no emotion in them, the owner of the house couldn’t help but feel angry, feeling that the other party must be laughing at him.
“Don’t think you can do anything here.” The owner of the house had given up all worries and looked at Jin Yu coldly, “Even if you are stronger than me, this is my painting, and even you can’t use all your strength here, you have just come here to die.”
At this point, the owner of the house was convinced by himself. Everyone saw several ferocious red claws protruding from the surrounding void, and they suddenly grab at Jin Yu’s direction.
Everyone immediately became worried. Although they didn’t know who this person was, since he seemed to be the opponent of the house owner, it would be helpful to them. It would be too unfortunate if an accident happened now…
But something amazing happened in the next moment, those sharp claws that had been approaching Jin Yu disappeared out of thin air before hurting him… No, it wasn’t so much that it disappeared out of thin air, it was more like they were directly erased by something.
Fear of Jin Yu immediately arose in everyone’s hearts. They had realized that this was a terrifying man who was no worse than the original boss.
“I’m really sorry.” Jin Yu looked over with a smile, but there was no sincerity in his words, “After all, the degree of completion of this painting is too low. Of course, I want to deal with it well, but they are too vulnerable.”
The owner of the house did not lose his mind because of the other party’s words this time, because he was deeply aware of the gap in strength between the two sides…
Gu Wuji could only shake his head in his heart. After all, a person who was probably a high-level dungeon boss, and the strength of an ordinary boss in an intermediate dungeon was certainly incomparable.
In fact, when he was researching various methods, what the owner wanted to do most was to kill Jin Yu, a thorn in his side, and let his soul enter his own painting. But when he entered Jin Yu’s home, he encountered the weirdest things in his life.
If Jin Yu hadn’t even been interested in killing him, the owner wouldn’t even be here now. Instead, he would be like the ghosts in the abandoned hospital, forever trapped in other people’s paintings.
The owner of the house was greatly stimulated afterwards, and finally became determined to become a ghost. But what made him despair was that even if he became a fierce ghost, he was still far behind Jin Yu and could not compete with him. Only then did he secretly huddle in the portrait, preparing to complete his 10,000-meter-long portrait.
“Now I can only kill you. As long as you die here, my most perfect painting will be completed!” The owner of the house once again looked at Gu Wuji crazily, as if he already regarded Gu Wuji as his last hope.
Gu Wuji felt that he was too innocent. Was he so suitable to be a model for the painters in this world?
Now it seemed that the target of this dungeon was not the dungeon itself, but the two ghost bosses. No matter what he did in this world, as long as he was noticed by those two ghosts, they would cause countless troubles.
Rong Qingman quickly wanted to use the prop, but at this time, he couldn’t use it successfully anyway. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, “What is going on? Could there be a bug in such an advanced prop?? It’s obviously such a critical time!”
But before the house owner could rush in front of Gu Wuji, Jin Yu’s face, which was still careless and seemed to not care about anything, suddenly darkened, and his eyes looked like a dead person, “What are you going to do?”
At this moment, all the surrounding artworks showed fear. As for the dark monster that was originally going to attack everyone, it retreated at a slow speed, no longer daring to attack.
“Did I give you permission to do something to him?” Jin Yu’s cold voice sounded, “No, does a trash like you, have the right to touch him?”
Before the words could be heard, a huge black figure appeared out of thin air. The sharp claws suddenly penetrated the house owner’s body, and then pressed his entire body against the wall nearby. The house owner immediately let out a scream and could hardly even struggle.
Gu Wuji was a little surprised. He didn’t expect that the owner of the house was so unbearable that he couldn’t resist Jin Yu’s power at all… In fact, he should have realized this a long time ago.
From the beginning, the owner of the house was just an imitator of Jin Yu.
“How is that possible? Why do you have this much power! This is my painting!” The owner of the house made a reluctant sound.
“To me, it doesn’t make any difference who painted it. Besides, this world is just constructed, and it’s not easy to maintain.” Jin Yu said lightly, “Although it can’t bring out all my potential. It’s more than enough strength to deal with you.”
“Then why didn’t you kill me before? I’ve always wanted to kill you,” the owner said through gritted teeth.
You must know that for this reason, he had been frightened for so long. He never dared to go too far for fear of being discovered by Jin Yu. But the other party never regarded him as an opponent?!
“If it were you, would you care about an ant?” Jin Yu looked over with some surprise. Although there was no sarcasm in his expression, this was the most painful thing. “I don’t want to do anything to you at all.”
This kind of useless waste of time who was just a person that imitated his paintings, Jin Yu was completely indifferent to this kind of thing. He always only did things that interested him and only communicated with people he was interested in.
The owner of the house turned extremely pale. He was once proud of how well he hid himself, thinking that sooner or later he would be able to surpass Jin Yu… But now he had to admit that even if he had done too much, the gap between them was basically impossible to cover.
After all, he was just an ordinary person.
For the first time, a feeling of regret emerged in the owner’s heart. If he had known this, he would not have done those things in the first place. If he had not blindly dreamed of competing with Jin Yu, he would have become famous by now.
“Of course, if you actually attack the person I value most.” Jin Yu said calmly, “Then you are just asking for death.”
The owner’s expression changed, “What on earth did you…” When did you meet!
