Weird Rules Rumor: At The Beginning, He Insisted That He Was Not Dead

Chapter 8: Laboratory №45 (2)



“Unlimited Return” meant that Bai Lian had countless chances to make mistakes!

“Time to test it.”

“Save completed.”

Bai Lian chose to save and looked around the room.

On a table not far from him stood a glass cup.

He walked over, picked up the cup, and immediately threw it to the ground.

Crash!

The cup shattered.

Bai Lian closed his eyes and activated the skill.

“Rollback complete.”

When he opened his eyes again, he was back in the same starting position.

Bai Lian turned to the table and saw that the cup, which had just shattered, was now sitting there intact and unharmed!

“This skill is ridiculously overpowered,” Bai Lian smirked.

This skill was downright unfair to other players.

But who cared when fortune was on his side?

Bai Lian just wanted to say: let the scales of luck tip even further in his favor!

“Save completed.”

After saving again, Bai Lian continued exploring the laboratory.

With such a skill, if he didn’t achieve a perfect completion, it would be downright embarrassing.

...

Some time passed. Bai Lian opened his eyes again in the starting room.

Unlike his first entry into the dungeon, his eyes now radiated complete confidence, as if he controlled everything.

And indeed, he did.

“So that’s how it is…” Bai Lian’s eyes lit up. He had fully understood the layout of the laboratory and now knew how to clear it perfectly!

It had to be said, this dungeon was far more terrifying than the beginner one.

If he didn’t have the skill of unlimited rollback, not only would there be no chance of a perfect run, but completing the dungeon at all would be nearly impossible! Ȓá𐌽Ȏ฿ÈS̩

Even with this absurd skill of unlimited rollback, he could only aim for a basic result. Achieving a high rating was almost out of the question.

After some thought, Bai Lian decisively turned around and headed to the table where the glass of water stood, picking up the white book lying there.

“Rules for Laboratory Staff”

This book contained the rules of the dungeon.

Bai Lian didn’t even glance at it and simply put the book in his pocket.

Meanwhile, in the real world.

After Bai Lian entered the dungeon, many viewers who had followed his previous streams received a notification about the start of the stream and immediately joined the chat.

At first, there were only a few dozen viewers, but within ten seconds, the number skyrocketed by several hundred!

【Here he is, the streamer attempting his first real dungeon!】

【Is this the lucky guy who got the infinite revival skill?】

【Did you all come from the video?】

【I’m an old viewer. This guy is incredibly lucky, but he’s also sharp-witted, and most importantly—he’s a real trickster!】

【Oh? Newcomers, you don’t get it. Why is he a trickster?】

【I know, hahaha. When the streamer was in the beginner dungeon, he tricked the other players and led them into a trap!】

【You know the Yuanxin Clinic? This guy faced another player who was a doctor. After clearing the dungeon, he threw away his chairs. Isn’t that cunning?】

【Now this is a real dungeon. Luck alone won’t cut it here. If the streamer doesn’t show some skill, clearing it will be tough!】

【This dungeon looks familiar... It’s Laboratory No. 45! Wow, the streamer got this dungeon first!】

【Whoa, Laboratory No. 45? Even among E-rank dungeons, it’s one of the hardest! Can the streamer clear it?】

...

The chat immediately came alive.

Some viewers were familiar with Bai Lian from his previous streams, while others had come after seeing the video uploaded to the platform.

Some immediately recognized which dungeon Bai Lian had chosen.

E-rank Dungeon: Laboratory No. 45.

This dungeon was quite popular.

In official dungeons, there are differences in difficulty.

E-rank is the easiest, followed by D, C, B, A, S...

And beyond that, no one knows.

Even S-rank is just speculation, as no player has ever entered an S-rank dungeon.

The Mysterious World has existed for several years, and even the most experienced players from the first wave are still exploring A-rank dungeons.

Laboratory No. 45, although classified as the lowest difficulty, is considered one of the hardest among all E-rank dungeons.

High difficulty means high mortality.

The K/D ratio in this dungeon is usually around 1.0.

When Bai Lian picked up the white book, he immediately turned around and headed for the exit.

This move greatly surprised the viewers.

【Huh? Isn’t the streamer going to read the rules?】

【Maybe he wants to grab the book first and study it later?】

【Isn’t that stupid? If you don’t read the rules, you won’t know how you’ll die.】

【Or maybe the streamer has watched streams of this dungeon before?】

【Probably. I’ve memorized the rules of Laboratory No. 45. If I knew them beforehand, I wouldn’t need to read them either.】

The viewers quickly developed their theories.

But in reality, Bai Lian hadn’t watched any streams of this dungeon.

Before entering the dungeon, his knowledge of it was practically zero.

But that was before he entered the dungeon.

Now, Bai Lian could confidently say that no one knew Laboratory No. 45 better than him!

Approaching the door, Bai Lian pulled on the iron bolt.

The iron door shook slightly and lowered a bit.

Bai Lian, like an experienced player, lifted the door and slowly opened it without making a sound.

Because the door hadn’t been repaired in a long time, it was damaged. If opened normally, it would produce a sharp, loud screech.

But if lifted slightly, it would open completely silently.

As the saying goes, the more experience you have, the easier it gets—this was the result of several rollback attempts Bai Lian had made to find the optimal solution.

The door opened, and Bai Lian stepped out.

Outside was a corridor, completely swallowed by darkness, with no light.

Bai Lian had a flashlight, bought from the shop, but he didn’t turn it on.

He turned left and walked forward ten steps, reaching the door of the adjacent room. He clenched his hand slightly, and a knife with a cold gleam appeared in his grip.

【What is the streamer planning to do?】

【I don’t know, maybe there are infected in the room?】

【Can’t be, the room is quiet.】

【Wait, don’t you notice that you need to pay attention to how the streamer found the door so precisely in such darkness?】

【Yeah, there’s no light in the corridor. How did he find the door so accurately?】

The viewers, watching Bai Lian stop, immediately began to wonder.

Bai Lian firmly gripped the knife and stood quietly, waiting by the door.

Suddenly...

Screech!

A piercing screech sounded, and the door opened.

Inside stood a middle-aged man in a suit, with thinning hair.

When he opened the door and saw the person standing at the threshold, he hesitated for a moment.

Then, noticing the cold gleam in Bai Lian’s hand, his pupils narrowed, and he instinctively tried to slam the door shut!

However, Bai Lian wasn’t about to give him that chance.

He placed his foot under the door and, with his left hand, delivered a punch to the man’s face.

As the fist was on its way, the man instinctively jumped to the right.

Whoosh!

The knife plunged precisely into his neck, and bright red blood immediately gushed out.
