Stuck in a Chinese novel

"Check him," Yang Haoran said to the tiny woman who was flying close to him. She nodded and flew towards Wei Jun. While Wei Jun couldn't see her, she could see and touch him, and she did.

However, that was a mistake on her part.

"Impressive. I for sure thought you would have died from that." Yang Haoran said as he stopped in front of Wei Jun. He had expected a sassy reply but the man before him just panted heavily.

While he wanted to end the man before him, he needed to make sure he wasn't like him. To do that, he needed to see whether or not he had another existence like him. If he did, he'd take it because that's he his strength grew as well. Massively at that.

As the tiny woman came close to Wei Jun and touched him, she invaded his consciousness. From her part, that was a mistake for what she saw next blinded her.

"Seems to me there are some mysteries to you as well, host." She heard an ethereal voice. An unknown voice yet so familiar. She couldn't remember where she had heard that voice or if was it even the same voice, but the ethereal effect in the voice was the same. But she couldn't be sure so she had to make sure.

So she went in deeper.

"Aren't you quite the protagonist?" She heard the voice again. It wasn't like her in nature. Whoever it was, didn't assist her host like she did.

"Hmm?" She heard the voice say that again but before she could go in any deeper, she heard the same voice, "What's a bug like you doing here?"

Before she could react, she was enveloped by something. A white light. And…

"AAAHHHH!!!!" She screamed as she burned to nothingness. All that was left was…

"Oops."

On the outside, by the time Yang Haoran asked about Wei Jun's bleeding, he suddenly felt the connection to the tiny woman cut off. But before he could worry about that, a massive wave of miasma shook the entire base.

Everything struck by the wave was blown away. Anything or anyone, that came in contact with the miasma wave was injured by a great degree.

Yang Haoran managed to get out unscathed and many more like him, who were strong enough, managed to remain unharmed in the face of the miasma wave. Naturally, thanks to the Death Qi, Wei Jun was protected from that as well.

But, that was the least of his worries. Soon enough, the base was swarmed by monsters of different kinds. Dogs, cats, and even bipedal monsters that Wei Jun didn't even know of.

[Just because you freed them doesn't mean they won't kill you]

[I suggest you break the connection before too many of them come out or the real troublesome ones do]

'How do I do that?' Wei Jun asked as he quickly stood up and ran, without even caring about Yang Haoran or his group. After all, they had other things to worry about.

[Just destroy one circle]

[With any one of them destroyed]

[All of them would become destabilized and blow up]

Wei Jun did just that because even he hadn't anticipated the number of monsters. The plan was to open dungeons in the base, about ten or so of them at once.

And while everyone was busy with the monsters, Wei Jun would kill Yang Haoran and some others and then get out as a survivor of the attack.

To do that, he constructed some circles according to the system's instructions and used some of the privates around the base as sacrifices. He used ten soldiers per circle so he needed a hundred of them.

He had done all of that in the morning and was just waiting for the circles to become stable before he activated them. The only wrench in his plan was the young woman named Lin's appearance so he had to stall. The good thing was that she wasn't a professional and it was her first rodeo so Wei Jun could take advantage of her maidenhood and make her flustered.

Still, her teammates couldn't wait and called for Yang Haoran but by the time he arrived, it was all done. If it was up to him, he would have sacrificed them all before but the sudden disappearance of a hundred people would have turned heads. So he only had the time after the morning and before the noon roll call.

It was very difficult for him, to get all those hundred people out. Killing them was not a problem since he had been putting parasites in their foods since the day he chose them as sacrifices. All that was left was to activate those parasites and they died on the spot. It was a pity the parasites only worked on those who were under the Qi gathering realm in cultivation. Otherwise, he wouldn't have had to go through all of this trouble and simply killed Yang Haoran like that.

Still, the plan was to get out of there as well without being implicated in anything. This was the best way to do it. No one knew the dungeons opened because of him. Yang Haoran's reaction earlier was a little worrisome but it could have been about something else as well.

[Yeah]

[That might have something to do with his spirit's death]

'His spirit?' Wei Jun asked.

[The tiny woman in the book]

[She was a spirit]

[A race from another dimension of a kind]

[Complicated stuff]

'How did she die?' Wei Jun asked curiously. In the book, she wasn't mentioned as a spirit but as a tiny woman. Even Yang Haoran himself didn't know what she was so he referred to her as Xaolan as well.

[She tried to penetrate your soul]

[And while I was distracted by how your soul was repaired with your Death Qi]

[She snuck past my barriers and witnessed me]

[Yeah]

[That wasn't really a smart move]

'I really wish I had the time to ask why?' Wei Jun was really curious. In the novel, at least in the first volume, the tiny woman was very powerful. She possessed Yang Haoran on one occasion and defeated a grandmaster-level monster.

[Please]

[She was just a low-ranking spirit]

[I doubt she was even a warrior ranked]

[At most she was a scout]

[A strong scout]

[But a scout nonetheless]

'Stop talking! You're making me curious again and again.' Wei Jun yelled. There was some info that didn't interest Wei Jun in the least while there was some that piqued his interest so hard he'd want to drop everything and focus on that.

Still, he needed to focus on the task at hand. If even one monster like the red wyvern came out, he would be finished.

As he arrived on the spot, he could see ten empty shriveled-bodies lying in a circle that was drawn from Wei Jun's blood. To be honest, he was a little freaked out after seeing all that but he had to do what he had to do so he ignored the sight. It was just freaky was all. He had seen worse.

Wei Jun hurriedly entered the circle and felt his power drain but before he even lost ten points of his Qi, he stored all the dead bodies in his inventory. As he did, the pressure on him intensified and his power began to drain more rapidly. Still, he managed to get out before he lost half of his HP.

Just as he succeeded, there was a slight explosion behind him that pushed him away. The same type of explosions happened in nine more places around the base, instantly closing all the dungeons.

However, even he knew he was one bit too late when he felt something pass through the entire space. Instantly, something dark covered the sky, like a dome.

What was it, he didn't know. But he sure didn't have a nice feeling from it.

[Veil]

[It's a sixth-circle spell]

'And what does it do?' Wei Jun asked.

[It prevents anyone from going out]

'Fu*k.' Wei Jun cursed but that wasn't the end of his problems when the system said.

[That miasma wave you just felt wasn't from whoever created this veil]

[It was from an undead knight]

'I'm assuming that's a bad thing?' Wei Jun asked. A very bad feeling welled up in his heart.

[Well]

[Let's just say]

[If the blood wyvern and an undead knight fought one-on-one]

[The undead knight would always win]

[Ten out of ten times]

'Just perfect.'

[And that's not the end]

'You mothertucker.'

[That I am]

[And the worst problem is that the one who created that spell would be very powerful as well]

[And as it so happens]

[Cultivators are weak against magic]

[So…]

After hearing all of that, Wei Jun only had three words to describe his current situation and just portrayed how difficult the situation was for him…

'Fu*k my life.'

[Your life is indeed fu*ked, host]
