The Heartthrob Protagonist Just Wants To Monopolize Me Chapter 33

His impression of Li Youzi was still stuck on the internet celebrity blogger. A soft and delicate looking girl who was most likely to become a victim once she met danger.

But from what Yu Ning was saying, it seemed that Li Youzi was not the victim, but the perpetrator?

“Although Li Youzi has a mysterious item, it’s impossible for an ordinary person to use it, right?” Ji Mingxia said.

Although there were special powers in mysterious items, for ordinary people, the power would only be activated under specific circumstances. In addition, it was impossible to predict what kind of effect it would have after being activated.

Like Lin Siyun, she was a typical example that although the power was stimulated, it developed in a bad direction.

By dying in a brutal way, the mysterious item was activated, and after her death, she ended up getting transformed into a ferocious ghost that acted mindlessly, making her no different from a zombie.

Only a small number of people could fully master mysterious items, and such people are counted in the original.

Yu Ning did not have this ability in the novel, but he now has it, and that’s because he has a protagonist halo.

Li Youzi, a person who doesn’t even have a name in the novel…… is unlikely to suddenly have drama added by giving her such a big golden finger.

“Could it be that …… Li Youzi is dead?” Ji Mingxia guessed.

For Ji Mingxia and Yu Ning, whether Li Youzi was dead or alive, they had to find her and get the other ring back as soon as possible.

According to the hotel’s surveillance, Li Youzi’s group drove an ordinary seven-passenger commercial vehicle into the primeval forest that day.

The vegetation in the primeval forest was so dense that it was impossible for a motorbike to travel through, not to mention a car. When the road disappeared, the car had to stop.

In other words, Li Yuouzi and her group could any go deeper, and once they entered the real forest area, they had to get out of the car and walk.

“There are men and women in their group, no relevant professional adventurers, and ordinary people would not be able to get far if they entered the primeval forest rashly.” Yu Ning said.

“So …… are we going to go after them?” Ji Mingxia said.

Yu Ning looked at Ji Mingxia and nodded to him.

Yu Ning had reasonably surmised Li Youzi’s whereabouts through surveillance and various clues, but this evidence could not be handed to the police.

After all, he got the surveillance with the help of the bronze mirror, which was not legal.

They were not related to Li Youzi and the others, and had no dealings with them at all. They would be treated as suspects if they called the police.

Secondly, the police could not sense Li Youzi’s location, and once they started searching, they would certainly have to search extensively, which would not only take a long time, but the result would have nothing to do with Ji Mingxia and Yu Ning if the person is found.

There would be no reason for them to get the ring, and there was no telling whose hands it would fall into.

If they wanted to save lives, they had to retrieve the ring in person.

Ji Mingxia never expected that getting a ring would have such a troublesome follow-up.

As soon as he transmigrated, Yu Ning was ghost pressed, which meant that with or without his influence, it was inevitable that Yu Ning and Lin Siyun’s ghost would face each other. It was fate.

He didn’t know how the original Yu Ning managed to resolve this troublesome matter without any worries, but this pair of rings was nowhere in the original book.

Perhaps without Ji Mingxia’s influence, Yu Ning would have destroyed the ring on the spot and cut off the follow-up.

Either lose the ring and save yourself the trouble, or you get the ring and run around for a second one.

There was a loss and a gain for each possibility, so it was fair.

Ji Mingxia thought for a while, but now that things had come to this, there was no point in thinking about those past events. Ji Mingxia said to Yu Ning, “Then I’ll go too.”

Without waiting for Yu Ning to retort, Ji Mingxia said, “We got the ring together, I definitely want to go and take a look at the second one …… although I may not be able to help much, but one more person is better. We can help each other and in case we really can’t resist, we can just hurry back and call the police. “

Ji Mingxia said, and added: “The primeval forest is so big. Looking for them would be like looking for a needle in a haystack. Of course having too many people is not much use, so Zhao Zhouye and the rest don’t need to go.”

Yu Ning’s original plan was to go alone, but Ji Mingxia was indeed connected to the ring. If he wanted to go, Yu Ning could not refuse.

However, there was no need to take Zhao Zhouye and the others through unnecessary risks.

After discussing the matter, they finally decided to rest today and set off tomorrow.

Previously, it would have been almost impossible to enter the primeval forest alone to find someone.

But with the help of the bronze mirror, things were much simpler.

First, the bronze mirror had the function of modifying memories.

The bronze mirror had lost its intelligence and could not function as perfectly as Tong Jing had, but this was the bronze mirror’s territory. With the right timing and the right people, Yu Ning could get it to play half of its role.

The human brain is sometimes influenced by external factors, creating a false perception of time.

A minute of a moment could seem as long as a year.

And a comfortable and pleasant time, even if it lasted a week, flew by like a day when recalled.

What Yu Ning had to do was to modify Zhao Zhouye and the others’ perception of time.

Shorten two or three days to be perceived as one.

In this way, when Ji Mingxia and Yu Ning leave the hotel, Zhao Zhouye and the others would only think they hadn’t seen them for a short day.

However, the premise for this operation to be successful was that it could only be done when Zhao Zhuoye and the others had not become suspicious and were completely relaxed.

In order to avoid revealing flaws, Ji Mingxia also made a deliberate excuse that he and Yu Ning would be resting in their room for a day.

“Three days will be shortened to one day. Three days later is also the time when our holiday ends. If we have not returned by that time, it means that we are likely to be trapped in the primeval forest. Zhao Zhouye and the rest would have regained their senses on seeing that we are nowhere to be found, they would call the police… “

Ji Mingxia sorted out Yu Ning’s arrangement in his mind. As the latter spoke, he suddenly realized that Yu Ning’s arrangement was simply divine.

Not only did that leave Zhao Zhouye and the others safe, but they could also play a logistical release role in passing, becoming their last line of protection.

In addition, all the equipment and arrangements for entering the primeval forest were also handled by Yu Ning.

This was a large hotel after all. The place was well-equipped, and could even be described as having everything.

He used the copper mirror to search for all the necessary equipment for purchase, then contacted a driver for an off-road vehicle.

Ji Mingxia thought he would be the one to rent the car and buy the equipment, but unexpectedly, Yu Ning arranged everything properly.

On acquiring the bronze mirror, it was like Yu Ning had been unsealed, allowing him to reveal his abilities to the fullest.

Considering that the next few days were going to be difficult, Ji Mingxia and Yu Ning washed up early that night and rested.

They left the resort early the next day on a full stomach.

The driver was one that Yu Ning had booked through an app.

When he saw Ji Mingxia and Yu Ning setting off with a big bag, the driver thought they were going camping in the forest and couldn’t help but laugh, “It’s still young people who are energetic. People of my age only dare to walk around such wild forests during the day. ”

On the surface, Ji Mingxia admitted that he was an energetic young man, but in his heart, laughed bitterly.

If he could, he would like to relax at the hotel and be a salted fish. He wasn’t interested in the wild forest and all that!

Although the hotel was built next to the primeval forest, the forest could be viewed in the distance when seen from within the hotel.

The sun was in full bloom at noon, and it was the height of summer when everything was growing.

Under the blue sky and white clouds, the branches of the trees along the road are spread out, their drooping branches and leaves bright green.

The sun shone through the gaps in the leaves, making for a great view.

Ji Mingxia grew up in a small place. After being raised by his grandmother for a while, he became so bold and mischievous that he went up and down the mountains and rivers, and ran all over the village.

However, ordinary mountain trees, and primeval forests are very different.

The seemingly ordinary trees in the rainforest bring a very different sensory impact once they are too dense and their size is magnified several times over.

The further into the forest, the more lush the foliage around you becomes.

Away from the hustle and bustle of the world, it is like coming to another land, where the humans in the car are the outsiders who have intruded on the quiet forest.

Two hours passed in a flash.

At the beginning, the sun was shining brightly. There were countless small animals hiding under the branches and leaves, and the insects and birds were chirping in harmony.

But as time passed, the surroundings became quieter and quieter.

The sun was imperceptibly blocked by clouds and dense foliage. It was clearly just after two in the afternoon, but the surroundings looked as if it was approaching dusk.

The deeper they went, the more rugged and narrow the road became, and the temperature began to drop a little.

When Ji Mingxia and Yu Ning first got into the car and set off, the car needed to be cooled down with the air conditioning; when they were halfway into the primeval forest, the driver turned off the air conditioning and opened the windows to allow the natural breeze when he saw that the outdoor temperature was just right.

But at this moment, the driver unconsciously closed the windows as the temperature was unceasingly getting lower. He even turned his head to look at Ji Mingxia and Yu Ning, saying, “Shall we turn on the heating?”

Yu Ning was looking around, and in a place the driver could not see, the ring on his hand was faintly glowing. Seeing the driver looking at them through the rear view mirror, Yu Ning said, “No need.”

The driver looked at his watch and said: “The road is in such a state that it will be impossible to drive on in another ten minutes so you will have to get out and walk by yourselves. If you don’t turn on the heater to warm up now, you’ll be cold when you get off later.”

“Thank you, we’ve brought clothes to protect ourselves from the cold.” Yu Ning said and suddenly added, “We’ll get off here.”

“Here?” The driver froze. He looked around and looked back at Yu Ning in disbelief. He kindly persuaded, “It was agreed that I’d drive to where the car can’t reach, and looking at the situation, I can still go for a while longer. You two can wait so you’ll walk a little less ah.”

“We’re almost at our destination, stop right here.” Yu Ning said.

Yu Ning and Ji Mingxia were customers, and since they had made the decision, the driver naturally could not insist.

The car slowly stopped, and Ji Mingxia and Yu Ning got out with their equipment on their backs.

The temperature outside was a little cooler than inside the car, but Yu Ning and Ji Mingxia had prepared for this early in the morning. Both wore long sleeves and long trousers.

As they watched the driver drive away, Ji Mingxia looked at Yu Ning: “Did you find something?”

“The ring is nearby.” Yu Ning said.

“Nearby?” Ji Mingxia looked around curiously.

Both he and Yu Ning had prepared themselves to go deeper into the forest after getting off the car. Unexpectedly, the path Li Youzi and the others were walking on was slightly closer than they had thought.

This hadn’t even reached the point where they needed to walk, and they had already entered the ring’s sensing range?

On taking a closer look around, there was indeed something unusual about the surroundings.

Such a sparsely populated place with dense plant growth was bound to have countless insects and small animals.

Earlier, the sound of the car was loud, and Ji Mingxia’s attention was on the temperature, so he didn’t notice anything.

But with the car gone, silence returned to the entire forest.

Leave alone the small animals that live in the forest, even the most common insect calls were absent.

The whole area was dead silent, as if there were only two living people. Ji Mingxia even had the illusion that the sound of their voices would produce an echo in the next moment.

They carried their equipment on their backs and walked along the path for about ten minutes.

At first, the ring on Yu Ning’s hand, only emitted a faint glow.

But as the surroundings grew colder and colder, the ring in his hand seemed like it was drawing on gusts of Yin Qi, and the red light grew more and more intense.

When it reached a certain critical point, the red light suddenly rushed out from the ring and flew into the air.

Suddenly, it was as if a fiery red bird had crashed into a huge net stretched across mid-air.

In the silent collision, the red scattered, and a layer of strange outlines faintly emerged in mid-air.

It was as if an invisible boundary was suspended in the air, cutting the space before and after it with a translucent red light.

The red light looked like a curtain of water, floating in the air and faintly flowing.

Because the curtain of red light was faint, one can vaguely see the scene on the other side beyond the boundary.

They were in the middle of a forest so no matter which direction they faced, there was nothing more than rugged paths and lush vegetation. At first glance, there was no difference between the scenery inside and outside the boundary.

“Is this …… the energy of the other ring?” Ji Mingxia was shocked.

When Yu Ning retrieved the bronze mirror, Ji Mingxia was still hiding from the ghost, so he hadn’t seen the image of the bronze mirror floating up from the lake.

For him, this was his first time seeing the scene of a mysterious item’s energy materializing, and he stared in some astonishment.

“From here on is the coverage of the other ring, they should be inside.” Yu Ning said.

Ji Mingxia observed for a moment, casually picking up a branch and probing at the boundary.

The boundary was like a translucent curtain of water. Ji Mingxia thought that the branch he probed would be met with some obstruction, but to his surprise, it passed through with ease.

There was also no barrier or obstacle between.

In other words, aside from being visible to the naked eye, the boundary had no presence whatsoever.

If it wasn’t for the red light exposing the boundary, Ji Mingxia and Yu Ning would have passed through without realising it.

No wonder Yu Ning had asked the driver to stop early.

They had come for the ring, and it would be a great injustice if the driver had accidentally gone in.

Although the boundary looked strange, Ji Mingxia and Yu Ning had come for the second ring. Finding the area where Li Youzi and the others were in was considered a pleasant surprise.

The two did not delay and quickly walked. The boundary was strange but they felt nothing when they went through it.

And after walking through, Ji Mingxia found that the scenery around them had instead returned to normal.

The temperature within the forest warmed up, the sunlight returned to the brightness it should have been in the afternoon, and there were even faint sounds of various insects chirping around. The whole forest returned to what it should have been under normal circumstances.

Ji Mingxia couldn’t help but glance back in the direction of the boundary.

After passing through, they loomed back and found that the boundary had disappeared.

A strange feeling rose up in Ji Mingxia’s heart.

According to the norm, it was after entering a certain paranormal area that the surrounding scenery changes.

But it was the other way round in this forest.

Before entering, the atmosphere outside was eerie. After entering, the forest’s vitality was restored instead.

It simply looked like a deliberate attempt to scare people and prevent irrelevant people from inadvertently entering this area.

With this suspicion in mind, Ji Mingxia and Yu Ning continued onwards.

Tire marks gradually appeared on the ground and after walking along the marks for about half an hour, they watched as the dirt path gradually became smaller and smaller, forming a winding forest trail.

At the end of the trail was a commercial car covered in scratches.

A burly man with a dishevelled face was standing by the car door and was wiping his face in the side mirror.

Through the reflection, the man saw someone approaching and he quickly turned around, his face fierce as he looked at Yu Ning and Ji Mingxia.

But after getting a clear look, the man’s expression changed and his whole body froze.
