Chapter 198 Awakening Player

"Where is this?"

"Am I under a control spell?"

Singo suddenly woke up. He first looked down at his body, and after finding that he was unharmed, he looked around.

What came into view was a messy testing ground, with pieces of flesh and body parts scattered everywhere. The ground was covered with sticky blood, which even reached above his ankles.

In front of him was a heavy metal bed with bloodstains on it, and the natural war maniac was firmly fixed on it.

He looked around warily again.

The body belonging to Mantou had fallen in a pool of blood, as silent as a dead body.

Singo felt confused again. The wizard who possessed Mantou easily dealt with the three of them. He was in his own nest and had not encountered any external enemies. How could he disappear for no reason?
"Has that 'Wagner' disappeared?"

"Did the spell end, or was there some other reason?"

It seemed as if a vague figure floated out of the Magic Soul Pot and poured into this body.

Singo exclaimed:
"Steamed bun?"

The body belonging to Mantou first had fingers trembling slightly, then opened its eyes, supported itself with its arms, and struggled to sit up in a pool of blood.

"This place is so disgusting. Why is it so sticky?"

Mantou complained with disgust on his face.

However, when he raised his head slightly, he saw Singo pulling the bowstring to its full extent and aiming the armor-piercing arrow at his forehead.

"I am a steamed bun——"

Singo was unmoved and said in a cold tone:
"How can I be sure that you are a steamed bun and not something else? You must pass my test first, otherwise, I will kill you with one arrow."

Mantou cursed angrily, "Xin Gou, are you sick? Which NPC can have such a cool temperament as me?"

However, the sharp arrow hit his forehead without hesitation, making Mantou break out in a cold sweat.

Mantou raised his hands and gave a French salute, feeling like crying but without the tears.

"Okay, okay, I'll answer it."

Singo looked down at him and said coldly, "What's the most-played video of Mantou?"

"The unspeakable thirty seconds between the white-collared shark and the old vampire."

"How many times has Mantou failed in online dating?"

"I did it three times."

"What's the name of Mantou's mount?"

"Noodle."

"How many gold coins has Mantou stolen from me?"

"Fifteen, while he was sleeping—wait, damn, you lied to me!"

Mantou jumped up in shock, and instantly realized that this so-called "test" was just a pretext for Singo to trick him.

"Good, you passed the test, Mantou."

"But you stole my gold coins."

Singo's voice was slow and drawn out, with a sneer on his face. He still had the bow in his hand firmly aimed at Mantou's forehead.

"Alright, I can work and sell my body for you, can't I? Please stop doing this."

Seeing that the situation was not good, Mantou begged for mercy.

Singo then put away his weapon and said seriously, "How did you feel in the pot? Do you know what just happened?"

Mantou thought for a moment before saying, "It's a very strange feeling. I can sense the environment through the container, but I can't move at all. I can only watch him use my body to control a rookie like you. But it looks pretty cool, as if I'm torturing you personally, hehe."

"."

Singo didn't care about his personal opinion and continued to ask: "What did he say? Why did he disappear?"

Mantou was immediately filled with righteous indignation: "This guy is a beast. Not only did he use Miss Valena as a test subject, he also wanted to use all of us as his samples. Fortunately, in the end, he suddenly disappeared." Singo stroked his chin, a little confused.

"You mean—he just disappeared all of a sudden?"

"Didn't he say anything before he left?"

Mantou scratched his head, pondered for a moment, and then he stammered, "It's not very clear to perceive the outside world from inside the pot, and I was busy speaking at that time, but I seemed to hear him say the name of our camp leader."

"Casius."

Singo's eyes were filled with excitement. "This Wagner is indeed a boss related to the main quest. All quests related to the red dragon are extremely important. I'm afraid we've hit the jackpot again this time."

"Xin Gou, you should save Brother Zhan Kuang first."

"If Zhan Kuang-ge sends it, you will be fully responsible."

Singo then remembered that Tiansheng Zhan Kuang was still tied to the metal bed, so he hurried forward, used thief tools to pry open the metal shackles on his hands, and injected a sobering agent into Tiansheng Zhan Kuang's neck.

"Uh--"

"Where is this? Am I not fighting?"

The natural warrior opened his eyes and climbed up from the metal bed with great effort. He was confused and subconsciously wanted to touch the battle axe at his waist, but found nothing.

When Mantou saw him wake up, he hurried forward to support him.

The natural warrior looked at Mantou's familiar face, and anger instantly appeared on his face. He was obviously still immersed in the battle just now.

The veins on his arm bulged, and he threw a punch with all his might, roaring angrily:
"Monster! Get off the bun!"

The barbarian, whose strength was as high as 18 points, used all his strength and smashed Mantou's face with his fist as big as a sandbag.

"boom!"

There was only a dull sound, and the steamed bun face suddenly deformed drastically, as if a dyeing factory had been opened on his face, with red, purple and blue mixed together.

"Whoops"

Mantou couldn't help but scream.

He was beaten so hard that he saw stars and his soul almost flew out again.

The natural warrior wanted to go forward to finish off the opponent with a deliberate punch, but was quickly stopped by Singo.

"Singo, why are you stopping me? I'm going to kill this beast!"

"Fighting is fun!"

"Drink-"

Mantou finally came to his senses. He touched his rapidly swelling face, but his lips opened and closed rapidly, shouting loudly: "Brother Zhan Kuang, please show mercy!"

"It's me! I'm really a steamed bun!"

He pointed at his face and cried.

Singo also explained: "The boss just possessed Mantou's body, and you fell asleep under the spell. You have to be careful, don't kill Mantou by accident."

"what?"

The natural war maniac quickly put down his fist, touched his shiny bald head, and his face turned slightly red.

"Oh, I'm sorry, Mantou. I mistook you for the boss just now and didn't know it was you. Um... Are you okay? I'll compensate you with a healing potion when we get to the city later."

"Okay, I'm fine."

Mantou wanted to cry but had no tears, his face was as swollen as a steamed bun made of leavened dough.

Singo said with some gloating: "Zhan Kuang, don't worry about Mantou, as long as he is alive. We have entered the hidden dungeon by chance, we must explore it carefully."

"Oh? A hidden copy?"

"Then there must be a very powerful enemy."

The natural born warrior's eyes were suddenly filled with fighting spirit, his face full of the excitement that only belongs to a professional player. He was a man who once challenged a star beast single-handedly!
Only Mantou was still rubbing the wound on his face, letting out a miserable wail:
"My handsome face——"
