Nine Rings C251
by MarineTL — Chapter 251: The Bullet He Yu attached three safety carabiners to the last twenty-meter rope, clipping them onto my belt and Old Qian's. He didn't even know which rock crevice he had jammed the end of the rope into, but as long as it held for ten seconds, we had a chance of survival. This was a last resort. We had lost our supply packs back in the Royal City, and this solitary rope was far too thin. We certainly couldn't count on it holding for long. In other words, my signal to He Yu wasn't meant…

Nine Rings C283
by MarineTL — Chapter 283: The Hidden Suicide Note I don't know who this letter should be sent to, or rather, who I even could send it to. No one wants to receive a suicide note out of the blue. At least, that is what I think. Logically, something like a suicide note should be sent to blood relatives, but the south is too far away. I'm afraid it would be intercepted before it even got there. If it were intercepted, matters would only become more complicated. So, after thinking it over, I plan to leave it in a…

Nine Rings C06
by MarineTL — Chapter 6: The Beginning of Turmoil After Tan Qiu left, Fourth Brother handed me fifty yuan and sent me off as well. Of course, I was more than happy to take the money. I quickly ran to the street corner stall to enjoy a bowl of cold jelly, and then headed to the supermarket to buy a few toothbrushes. On my way back from the supermarket, I saw the entire production street lined with mobile stalls selling New Year prints and couplets. If there's one thing Henan never lacks, it's people. Every year,…

Nine Rings C38
by MarineTL — Chapter 38: He Yu’s Theory We carried the injured men into the tent—many with broken arms and legs. He Yu’s left leg was in bad shape, a large chunk of flesh bitten off by those insects. Tian Yuqing and Tan Qiu didn’t look so good either; we must’ve lost quite a few people down there. Those few days had left me utterly drained. I tore the rune-covered white paper from the wall, stuffed it into my backpack, and collapsed into rest. I slept for two full days straight, and when I finally woke…

Nine Rings C70
by MarineTL — Chapter 70: The Ones We Can't Take With Us I waved frantically in Fourth Brother’s direction. He saw me too, his eyes full of worry. Strangely, there was no surprise in them. He and a few of his men grabbed hold of the iron chain extending to the cave entrance, and it took them a full half hour to haul us up. The moment I climbed out, Fourth Brother yanked me aside. I stumbled, my ear aching from his grip, and he immediately started scolding me. “Are you trying to get yourself killed? What the…

Chapter
Nine Rings C102
by MarineTL — Chapter 102: Good News The whole thing was so strange that even now, looking back, I feel utterly perplexed. I had no prior history of sleepwalking, yet the touch of that stone tower felt no different from reality. If that Lu Ayao who appeared out of thin air hadn't been so different from the real person and blown his cover, what would have happened to me next? A fit of coughing eventually jolted me awake. I choked up mouthfuls of white mycelium. I was still lying in the same spot, but in a very…

Nine Rings C134
by MarineTL — Chapter 134: The Profiteering Divine Doctor Hearing He Yu talk with such certainty made it sound genuinely bizarre, but regardless, hearsay is never as convincing as seeing something with your own eyes. This only made me more determined to make the trip to Luoyang. We sat for a while longer before heading off to sleep. Those two days on the train were pretty boring. At first, He Yu and I were still in the mood to fool around, but eventually, we ate so much instant ramen we wanted to throw up. By the…

Nine Rings C166
by MarineTL — Chapter 166: Layers of Illusion But this time, the situation was different from before. My consciousness wavered for only a fleeting moment before I snapped back to clarity. My flashlight lay beside me, and I was lying alone on a large rock, half-submerged in water. Looking up, I could see the giant turtle poking its head out from the caisson ceiling. This was the side chamber where Bai Shenxian had dived and left from at the very beginning. It felt incredibly real. I could even smell the…
