Chapter 168: Dark Life

"Gu Jun, have you discovered anything?" Liu Xing asked.

Gu Jun chuckled and replied, "If I'm not mistaken, this King Tindalos is likely a member of the Yis People!"

Liu Xing raised an eyebrow, surprised that "Gu Jun" knew about the Yis People.

Compared to other mythical creatures, the Yis People were the most enigmatic characters played by the players. Unlike other mythical creatures that could be easily recognized for their terrifying features, Yis People, existing in a soul state, directly possessed humans. Even if players could sense something unusual about Yis People, they couldn't identify them.

To understand Yis People, one either needed a special encounter, like a Yis People revealing themselves, or a certain level of expertise. Gu Jun, being an Occultist, clearly fell into the latter category.

"Yis People? Who are they? Why have I never heard of them before?" Liu Xing feigned surprise.

Gu Jun rubbed his chin, a bit troubled, and said, "Uh, how should I describe it to you? Yis People are essentially extraterrestrials, but they possess advanced technology, controlling all of time in the universe. Therefore, Yis People can freely traverse the river of time and even inhabit human bodies, just like those protagonists in certain novels who travel through time."

Liu Xing nodded, suddenly enlightened, "So that's how it is. No wonder when Kuroba Naoki was telling the story of King Tindalos, I felt he was similar to the male lead in a certain novel and had the ability of foresight."

From "Gu Jun's" description of Yis People, Liu Xing concluded that "Gu Jun" didn't have complete knowledge of Yis People. It seemed Gu Jun, like himself, had obtained some fragments of a magical book, learning some information about Yis People.

Liu Xing nodded with a smile, waiting for an empty taxi. He and Gu Jun then went their separate ways.

Sitting in the taxi, Liu Xing closed his eyes to rest.

Firstly, Liu Xing had to admit that an Occultist who hadn't activated the 'Death Wish' mode was indeed useful. If it weren't for meeting Gu Jun, he wouldn't have gathered such crucial information, especially about the "Dark Life."

However, Liu Xing was quite concerned about Gu Jun, the Occultist. If he accidentally triggered the 'Death Wish' mode, things could get out of hand. Moreover, it was evident that "Gu Jun" had developed an interest in the "Dark Life," leaving Liu Xing with an unexplainable sense of unease.

Apart from that, Liu Xing couldn't help but want to criticize the author of this module. The person was undoubtedly a beauty lover because, from what Liu Xing knew, almost all the significant NPCs were handsome men or beautiful women. Did appearance represent combat prowess in this module's world?

Of course, what Liu Xing found most amusing was King Tindalos, a Yis People using the name of his mortal enemy, the Hound of Tindalos, as his country's name. Liu Xing couldn't help but marvel at King Tindalos's audacity wasn't he afraid the Hound of Tindalos would come looking for trouble?

Nevertheless, Yis People seemed untroubled by the Hound of Tindalos. They had developed technology to shield themselves from the Hound of Tindalos's perception, ensuring they wouldn't be hunted.

Liu Xing also thought that King Tindalos was an exception among the Yis People. While others quietly researched and left the human world after five years, King Tindalos not only established a country but also had a family. According to records, King Tindalos had lived in the human world for at least several decades.
