The Apocalypse Descends!

For this world, once a disaster strikes, the greatest luxury for ordinary humans is simply to survive.

Meng Qing, being a time traveler, knew this best!

Looking at the vast expanse of red mist before him, Meng Qing gritted his teeth and happened to meet Yang Jian, who was carrying a female student on his back.

Um?

Meng Qing blinked, and Yang Jian blinked too.

"Brother, are you fleeing too?"

Upon hearing Yang Jian's words, Meng Qing's lips twitched. Wasn't that obvious?

He was on a mission when he suddenly received orders that headquarters had been attacked.

After that, the headquarters cut off all contact.

Meng Qing immediately rushed back, but on the way he suddenly received a new order, which instructed all the Right Hand Unit to proceed to a designated location to rendezvous.

Meng Qing went, but the leader was a group of three: Yi Jing and Yi Gui.

They launched a direct rebellion, controlling all the Right Hand members to betray the Nine-Tails!

Meng Qing knew something was wrong as soon as he saw the atmosphere, so he retreated behind the crowd and secretly slipped away when he had a chance!

Whether he betrays them or continues to obey the Nine-Tailed Fox, Meng Qing feels that his situation is extremely dangerous!

For safety reasons, he felt it was necessary to withdraw immediately!

Yes, he managed to escape, but before long, Li Yuan and Li Heng attacked together!

Meng Qing was also stuck on this street, unable to go forward or backward!

"Is it too late for me to switch sides and join Sea King's camp now?"

It's definitely too late!

Meng Qing was the one who sealed the Sea King before, and now the Sea King probably wishes he could tear him apart!

The only solution Meng Qing can think of now is to use the Game Space to escape this two-pronged attack from the outside world!

But there's a rather fatal problem!

"I have no money."

Yes, although Meng Qing brought his own ticket to the game, he never managed to collect enough gold!

That's absolutely fucking ridiculous!

Back to the present, Meng Qing and Yang Jian looked at each other.

Unexpectedly, a piercing sound suddenly entered Meng Qing's ears!

"I remember you, human."

"I'm glad you're still alive, because I don't like to hold grudges. If I do, I usually settle the score on the spot."

This is?

The voice of Sea King?

????ДO???

Oh no, I'm doomed!

Sea King holds grudges!

Meng Qing's face turned pale instantly; he had already decided how he wanted to die.

A short while later, his phone alarm suddenly went off.

Meng Qing took out his phone and saw that the date he had set had arrived.

What is this date?

"Return date?"

It was at this moment that a library appeared out of nowhere on the side of the street!

This is!

Upon seeing this, Meng Qing grabbed his backpack and ran out without saying a word!

The wave followed closely behind, and although Yang Jian didn't understand why the library had suddenly appeared, he had no choice but to follow it!

Since we're already stuck with no way out, we have no choice but to take a gamble!

When Meng Qing arrived at the library, he tried to push the door open, but found that, just like before, he couldn't open it no matter how hard he tried.

Why is it like this again?

"Open Sesame!"

No response.

"Long live Hydra!"

No response.

"The Hand of the Serpent will surely reshape the world!"

Click.

The door opened.

Meng Qing covered his face. Could this be the slogan for opening the door?

If he had to shout it every time he came, Meng Qing felt that one day he would become the head of the Hand of the Serpent.

Forget it, I can't worry about that now.

Meng Qing and Yang Jian, who followed closely behind, along with the female student on his back, plunged into the library.

As soon as the three of them entered, the door behind them slammed shut.

The huge wave swept in, but it couldn't shake the library in the slightest.

Countless monsters surged forward, and just as they were about to smash the door, their bodies suddenly froze in place!

Li Yuan witnessed everything from afar, "This library, could it be...?"

Number 0 24: The Exiled's Library.

Meng Qing came here again, but he did not see Chen Ye.

Apart from a little girl sleeping on a table, there was no sign of the Grim Reaper boss in the store.

Meng Qing approached the counter, where a little girl with long black hair was leaning on it. She was wearing a black gothic dress and looked extremely cute.

This sleeping posture... is really not very elegant.

She even had drool dripping from her mouth; it's unclear what she was dreaming about.

Meng Qing hesitated, wondering whether to wake the little girl, but unexpectedly, the little girl woke up on her own.

She rubbed her eyes and yawned.

"Oh ho... huh?"

001, still half-asleep, looked at Meng Qing and Yang Jian, "Everything is half-price... See for yourself..."

001 said, resting his chin on his hand.

Everything is half price!

Meng Qing paused for a moment, then quickly took out a book from the bag on his back.

"I'm here to return a book."

Upon hearing this, 001 took the book and asked, "Oh, do you still want to borrow it?"

"Is... it okay?" Meng Qing asked.

001 nodded. "The owner said it's okay, but a deposit is required to borrow the books."

Meng Qing rummaged through his pockets. "I don't have any cash. Can I pay by scanning a QR code?"

"Scan the code?"

001 suddenly laughed, "Excuse me, the deposit I'm talking about isn't the paper money under financial credit and the numbers in your account, but something more tangible."

As she spoke, 001 jogged to the back warehouse and brought over a huge flowerpot.

There was a special plant in the flowerpot. It looked like a sunflower, but its stamens were full of eyeballs.

Chen Ye specifically instructed that this thing could absorb a person's soul.

It was originally a Venus flytrap, but Chen Ye nurtured and cultivated it into a soul extractor.

However, Chen Ye did not assign it a serial number, and it was always referred to as Little Flower Hua.

"You can buy anything here by trading your soul."

Anything?

How about a magic potion?

Meng Qing swallowed hard, thinking, "What if I said I wanted to buy some weird and wonderful potions?"

"For example, a potion that grants people various special abilities after drinking it?"

Upon hearing this, 001 took out nail clippers and trimmed her nails. "That's definitely not enough, but if you add the souls of the two people next to you, maybe it will work. Can you convince them?"

Yang Jian's gaze sharpened upon hearing this. "Let me ask first, this isn't a joke, is it?"

001 sneered, "Of course, that lord always keeps his word, and I'm just following the rules."

At the cost of one's soul...

Meng Qing pondered for a moment.

He overheard some conversation while he was sleeping, and they seemed to be talking about the new library system.

It is said that not only books can be rented, but also Ancient Relic.

Can I take a look myself?

"Casual."

001 blew on her nails as she spoke.

Meng Qing turned his head and scanned the bookshelves.

Yang Jian put the girl down and looked over as well, asking, "Do you know this place well?"

"Yes, because it's not my first time here."

Where is this place?

"The Exiled's Library".

"Huh, what is that?"

"Library."

"Oh."

"So, from what I just heard in your conversation, the books here are rented in exchange for souls?"

"That's how it seems at the moment." Meng Qing wasn't very familiar with the rules here either.

It all depends on the mood of the Grim Reaper.

"What's the use of these books?"

What's the use?

"The books here have a strange power that can grant you forbidden knowledge or special abilities."

"If you want to save your life, even at the cost of your soul, I suggest you choose one."
