Infinite Flow: Becoming a God in a Nightmare Game

Chapter 212 Dungeon Replay

Jiang Qi cleared his throat and began to spout nonsense with a straight face.

"You two go ask that man; maybe he can have children."

After he finished speaking, he casually patted the tops of the two little ones' heads.

Qiqi was thoroughly enjoying herself, her eyebrows curving into a smile.

Qiqi had sharp eyes. She touched the bruise on Jiang Qi's knee with her little hand, pouted her lips, and blew a breath.

"Oh dear, brother, you're hurt. Let me blow on it for you."

"Mom said that blowing on the wound will make it better."

Jiang Qi wanted to bend over, but his body told him he couldn't.

So he hid his knees and asked about something else that was more important.

"How is your mother? She has been in a coma for far too long, and she took you all with her."

"Hehe, Mom is doing great, she's just resting and recuperating during that time, so we went to take care of her."

"Perhaps it's just that the timing of the end of the matter was a bit awkward."

Jiang Qi, with a toothbrush in his mouth and toothpaste foam all over his mouth, mumbled an "Mmm".

As for the last appearance of the two sisters, they must have sensed the rapid loss of the item holder's life force and thus forcibly awakened.

Once they sensed that it was safe, the two sisters were forced to enter a dormant state again.

There aren't many items for recognizing a master, so Qiqi and Qiqi really consider him a very important person.

The two little ones were incredibly well-behaved, only following Jiang Qi out step by step after he finished.

Although Lu Zhi helped him wash his body and applied ointment yesterday, he still felt uncomfortable no matter how he changed his position on the sofa.

With a cushion tucked behind his back, Jiang Qi finally closed his eyes comfortably, his fingers rhythmically tapping the sofa armrest.

Lu Zhi squatted to the side, watching him expectantly, as if afraid he would run away.

Lin Wanchu and Lu Xue's gossip instincts burned fiercely, and they would look at Jiang Qi, wanting to say something but holding back.

Cheng Cuo then took out a top-secret file from his pocket, which Yu Hansheng took and pushed onto the table.

Cheng Cuo crossed his arms, rested his head on them, and said lazily.

"This is what you asked me to find, Boss Jiang, about the traces of your life in Nancheng from childhood to adulthood."

"You can open it and take a look; maybe the answer you're looking for is inside."

Curiosity is something that everyone has.

Despite knowing it was Jiang Qi's background, they were even more curious and nervous than Jiang Qi himself.

Jiang Qi slowly tore open the file seal and pulled out the documents inside.

The first item is just general information about his life at the Nancheng Welfare Home; there's nothing particularly interesting about it.

Jiang Qi continued flipping through the documents, and for a moment, the only sound in the living room was the rustling of him turning the pages.

The document contained a great deal of information, but only a few key details were extracted.

"Okay, I've finished watching. You can watch whatever you want."

Jiang Qi answered frankly, without any intention of avoiding the question.

The first page of the document is about the fire at the welfare home that once shocked the entire nation.

Almost no one survived that fire.

Jiang Qi's name appeared conspicuously on the list of deaths at the welfare home.

Jiang Qi looked about seven or eight years old at the time, and the photo was printed in black and white.

The only child who survived from the orphanage was named Jiang Youzhi.

Officials unanimously believe that he deliberately set the fire, but after the fire, Jiang Youzhi disappeared without a trace, and no one knows where he went.

Jiang Youzhi reappeared at another welfare home, and at that time, he happened to be chosen by the Bai family to be the heart donor for the young master Bai.

That's right, the young master Bai who suffers from heart disease is Bai Xiaoyu.

Lu Xue suddenly realized and murmured, "I never imagined there was such a deep connection behind this."

The headshots of Jiang Qi and Jiang Youzhi were circled with a red marker.

Lin Wanchu frowned, her tone serious and pointed.

"If you look closely, this so-called Jiang Youzhi looks a lot like Boss Jiang. After looking at him for a while, I thought they were the same person."

For some unknown reason, Lu Xue felt a chill run down her spine.

"Perhaps, if we can find Jiang Youzhi, we might know the answer."

"Let's check again to see if there's anything we've missed."

Yu Hansheng was also completely baffled and could only come to this conclusion.

No one bothered to think about how Jiang Qi, who was only seven or eight years old, managed to come back to life.

What they care about is Jiang Qi as a person.

Jiang Qi is still the Chairman Jiang they trust.

Besides, they've seen it all.

Now it was Jiang Qi's turn to be puzzled.

"Aren't you afraid of me?"

The four of them looked up simultaneously and said in unison.

Why should I be afraid of you?

It seems I was overthinking things. Jiang Qi rubbed his temples and muttered to himself.

When did he start caring about what others thought?

Lu Zhi was very attentive, massaging Jiang Qi's feet and back from time to time, making Jiang Qi feel very comfortable.

I looked through them over and over, but there were only a few documents, and I still couldn't find any other important clues.

The purpose of this visit is not only to uncover the mystery of Jiang Qi's background, but also to review the Lost Paradise instance.

This was the first time that everyone thought of reviewing the game after the dungeon ended.

The reason is simple: Paradise Lost itself is riddled with questions.

Lu Xue raised her hand straight up, like a student who was good at asking questions.

"Brother Jiang, there are a lot of things we don't understand about the Paradise Lost instance. We'd like to ask you if you have any questions."

Jiang Qi remained calm and composed, smiling slightly. "Hmm? Tell me more."

"Hehe, I knew it. Brother Jiang must have also noticed the unreasonable aspects of the dungeon."

Lin Wanchu continued speaking, and Jiang Qi listened attentively.

"Mainly, the final success was mostly thanks to Chairman Jiang."

"So, I'd also like to ask Chairman Jiang for your opinion."

Jiang Qi leaned back slightly, letting Lu Zhi massage his shoulders.

The young man's voice was clear, deep, and gentle, as if he were talking about the weather today.

"What if I told you that the Paradise Lost instance was just a half-finished product created by the Nightmare Game?"

"He throws wave after wave of qualified players into this instance in order to..."

Lu Xue blurted out the answer without hesitation, her mind working quickly for a rare moment.

"I know, it's a selection process!"

Jiang Qi didn't mind Lu Xue's interruption and gave her an appreciative look.

"That's right, it's all about selection."

"Nightmare games require players to be selected one by one to become NPCs in dungeons."

"Coincidentally, Lu Zhi's younger brother, Lu Hui, had his lost soul fragments fall into this place, and Nightmare Game captured it to become a dungeon boss."

"Fortunately, this instance wasn't fully completed, otherwise, we really wouldn't have been able to escape unscathed."

"Therefore, the illogical parts in the dungeon become reasonable."

"There are too many unstable factors, which leads to the incompleteness of the copy."

Cheng Cuo clenched his fists and complained angrily, "No wonder my eyes are still not healed even after leaving the dungeon."

"In most cases, as long as the player can leave the dungeon alive, even if their hand is severed, it will grow back."

"He was right, we suffered a great loss."

Yu Hansheng gently comforted him, feeling guilty, "It's all my fault, but don't worry, things will get better."

"Why are you feeling guilty? I didn't blame you."

Jiang Qi took out a cinnabar bead bracelet and weighed it in his hand. "Take a look at this. Does it seem familiar?"

Yu Hansheng shook his head, and Cheng Cuo, unable to see, could only shake his head as well.

Clearly, Jiang Qi wasn't asking everyone; he focused on waving the bracelet in front of Lin Wanchu and Lu Xue.

Lu Xue stared at the bracelet for a long time but couldn't find anything wrong with it.

However, Lin Wanchu had a slightly vague memory of seeing someone wear it.

Immediately, she slapped her thigh and exclaimed excitedly.

"Ah, I remember now."

“I clearly saw this bracelet on Xu Cangsheng’s wrist before.”

"Well, it's her."

“Jerry gave me this bracelet when the dungeon ended.”

"I finally understand why she was so kind; she smelled the scent of old friends on us."
