Synopsis: [Full text completed, please slaughter me QAQ]
When Yitu turned 26, he received a mysterious poker card.
A Queen of Hearts, the queen standing on the card face curved her crim...
Chapter 118
Jiang Hanyu left to pick up He Zixi, and Yi Tu's mind fell on the matter of finding King Bai again.
He looked around and tried to identify the direction to the gate of Miao City.
However, this was his first time here, so he could only choose a road in the general direction based on his impression.
After walking for only five minutes, he heard the sound of a car coming towards him.
Yi Tu's heart moved, and he followed the voice and ran into Song Jingchen and others who came to look for him.
"Brother, we're here to pick you up!"
Song Jingchen quickly opened the car door for him and welcomed him in with a smile.
"How did you know I came to Miao City?"
Yitu got on the car. There were two other unfamiliar faces in the car, neither of whom he had seen before.
The two men greeted Yitu very politely, and one of them explained:
"We've been keeping an eye on the battle situation on the front lines of Yancheng. So when we knew the Red Queen was coming, we immediately sent people to wait at the city gates for her. However, we didn't see you, but instead saw the Resuscitator."
He Zixi was also sent here by Spade King, but compared with the treatment of being hugged by Yi Tu and left, this guy can be said to have been carried here by the big devil single-handedly.
After Jiang Hanyu brought him over, the man threw it away and finished his mission. He turned around and disappeared from everyone's sight without saying a word.
Even though He Zixi, a grown man, resisted hugging his captain, after all, in front of so many spectators and acquaintances, wasn't it too much to carry him over?
"Did he help you find my location?" Yitu guessed.
Song Jingchen nodded: "Yes, otherwise Miao City is so big, it would take half a day to find it."
Having said this, Song Jingchen paused for a moment, as if remembering something, and said, "Oh, brother."
"You said you had a way to find the White King, yet you brought the Resurrectors to Miao City... Are you planning to borrow someone's help?"
When he asked this question, the other two people in the car subconsciously looked at Yi Tu, waiting for his answer.
Yitu smiled. There was nothing to hide about this matter.
"Yes, to find the White King, we need to borrow the power of the Cube Queen Yun Yao."
Song Jingchen was stunned, "Yun Yao?"
The off-road vehicle quickly brought several people to the north gate of Miao City. A deafening roar could be heard before they even got close.
The battle situation in Miao City, where Xing Heng is stationed, is much worse than that in Yan City, where Mo Ya is stationed.
Firstly, the equipment in Miaocheng is not as sophisticated as that in Yancheng, and secondly, the supplies are not as abundant as those in Yancheng.
Yancheng dares to compete with them in consumption, but Miaocheng cannot.
So when Yi Tu got out of the car and just walked onto the city road, he saw the Spade Queen Umbrella covered in brown blood and minced meat.
The man's handsome face, stained with blood, looked even more bloodthirsty and violent. His eyes, which had no warmth at all, returned to normal the moment he saw Song Jingchen.
Huasan was about to say something, but Song Jingchen couldn't help but frown, and the man froze in place.
When Yitu saw this scene, he found it quite interesting.
He didn't say anything. After a while, the umbrella deflated and a hint of fatigue appeared between his brows.
He shifted his gaze to Yitu and said briefly:
"I've already told them to tell them if you need anything."
Yi Tu nodded. Although he and Hua San had a bad relationship, this time was different from before. They were forced to stand on the same front and their interests were linked to each other.
Huasan left and he wanted to go back and change into clean clothes.
The supplies in Miao City are not as abundant as those in Yan City, so they cannot afford to use the penetrating cannons all the time, but have to operate them intermittently.
Therefore, during this period of intermittent operation, all the people of Xingheng had to go to the city roads to guard the city, and they could only rest for ten minutes at the shortest and half an hour at the longest.
As the captain of Xingheng, Huasan has even less time to rest.
What they just encountered was just Huasan going downstairs to change clothes for the second time. In less than five minutes, he would go up to the city road again.
After Huasan left, Song Jingchen's expression didn't change at all. Yitu didn't know what happened between the two of them, and it was even harder for her to ask.
After he met the Cube Queen Yun Yao, he put the matter aside.
"You're here?" Yun Yao hurriedly came forward when she saw the person coming.
Behind her were team members who had been fighting for a long time, some from the Cube camp and some from the Xingheng team. They all looked exhausted and were obviously at the end of their strength.
"How do we find the White King? We are all at your command."
Yun Yao was a little anxious. Miao City could not be defended for too long. Once the city was breached, the consequences would be disastrous.
Yitu nodded at her, then looked at He Zixi who was waiting on the side and said:
"Yun Yao, I want you to find a way to capture a living zombie."
"What?"
"Catch living zombies?"
Everyone was stunned, not understanding what Yi Tu was trying to do.
"What do you mean? What do you want to do?" Yun Yao asked in confusion.
Yitu's face was calm, and he explained briefly:
"Capturing living zombies is to find the location of the White King."
"We have never seen the White King, nor do we know his features or appearance, but they do."
Yitu's gaze turned to the thousands of zombies under the city. They were controlled by the White King. To some extent, they were the White King himself.
He Zixi was the first to understand his intention and was quite shocked.
Capturing living zombies is only the first step in Yitu's plan. It is not that easy to find out the location of the White King.
First, they have to find a way to remove Bai Wang's mental control over the zombies, so that He Zixi can see Bai Wang's location through his white pupils.
Although Yun Yao cannot break the White King's mental control, she can loosen and disintegrate the zombies' will.
They don't need to be completely relieved, just a moment of relaxation is needed to succeed.
After understanding the plan, everyone looked at Yi Tu with a more complicated look.
Perhaps it was admiration, or perhaps it was fear, but he didn't have time to savor it carefully.
After Huashan changed his clothes and came up, they began to discuss the plan to capture the living zombies.
This task seems simple, but it is actually much more difficult than they imagined.
Miao City's penetrating cannons entered intermittent operation again. Taking advantage of this pattern, the zombies under the city wall began to surge up frantically.
Because there were too many of them, it was impossible for them to capture living zombies safely, so they had to kill them all.
When the first opportunity came, the three members of the Xingheng team cooperated with each other and used an electric net to capture a lone Baitong.
"Quick! Got it!"
"Pull it up! Pull it up quickly!"
"Hurry, hurry! They've noticed!"
The zombie was so strong that even if the power grid was energized, it couldn't be completely stunned by the shock. It was struggling so hard that three adult men could hardly hold on to the hand rope.
The group of zombies below had already discovered their purpose and were rushing up desperately to rescue their own kind.
In the emergency, the Spade Queen umbrella quickly opened its ribs and harvested a batch of heads of the zombies almost face to face.
Taking advantage of this gap, the white-eyed creature was successfully dragged to the city road, and everyone rushed forward to try to tie it up and put it there.
However, the next second, the zombie suddenly raised his hands and broke his own neck, dying on the spot.
It all happened so fast that no one could react.
"We've been discovered." Yitu said in a deep voice.
He looked down at the city wall. The zombie horde that had been attacking frantically was now standing quietly fifty meters away, staring coldly at the people on the wall.
"It's too fast. We clearly didn't have time to do anything." Yun Yao bit her lip.
"What should we do if they stop attacking?" Song Jingchen asked.
Yitu shook his head, "Wait."
The White King has now noticed their intentions, but he may not know that they are capturing zombies in order to find out their whereabouts.
As long as they wait patiently, the White King will definitely launch another attack.
At 3:20 pm, the zombie tide stopped attacking Miao City, and the other two sanctuary cities soon fell into dire straits.
Yancheng was under siege and all players were forced to defend the city.
The three artillery batteries at the south gate of Sen City were destroyed by giant zombies and could not be operated. It was only a matter of time before the city gate fell.
Everyone in Miao City looked at the scene on the screen and fell silent for a while.
At 3:30 pm, the south gate of Sen City was lost, and Plum Blossom King was forced to abandon the outer city. The Curiosity Team led all the players to evacuate to the inner city.
For a moment, the players in the viewing area became agitated.
"Without the outer city, they will soon be besieged and I'm afraid they won't be able to hold out for long." Yun Yao said softly.
Yitu frowned and said nothing.
In fact, just as Yun Yao said, Sen City fell within just a few hours.
Abandoning the outer city and retreating into the inner city undoubtedly cut off one's last retreat.
Although it was difficult for people outside to get in, people inside could not get out either.
Even if Yancheng and Miaocheng wanted to go to the rescue, they would not know where to start. You have to know that Sencheng is located at the innermost part, backed by a continuous mountainous area.
"They're out of options. Just by abandoning one outer city, they've lost twenty-eight players." Huasan said solemnly.
"If we fight to the death for a way out, the only ones who might survive are the Night King and the Hunters."
"Yeah, after all, this is a team game, not an individual exhibition match."
He Zixi raised his eyebrows, but his expression was not as serious as the others.
"Are there still no signs of movement from the zombies outside Miao City?" Yitu asked.
Huasan glanced at him and said, "Not yet. The members on the city road haven't reported it yet."
Yitu's frown deepened, and he was undoubtedly in a deadlock at this moment.
He had to make the right choice between continuing to wait and moving the battlefield.
Miao City stopped attacking because it was discovered by King Bai, so they could only turn back to Yan City and try again.
But if we want to return to Yancheng quickly, we must trouble Jiang Hanyu to come and pick us up one by one.
But at this time, Yancheng was under siege by a tide of zombies, and Jiang Hanyu himself was overwhelmed and unable to extricate himself.
You must know that the first bottom line that Yancheng can defend is the big devil himself.
What Yitu is most worried about is that once they leave Miao City, the White King will immediately launch an attack and become the next Sen City.
"Are you still waiting?" Huasan asked calmly.
Yitu responded more calmly, "Wait."
The two cities fell under the fierce attack of the zombie tide, and the ten-meter-high city walls were densely covered with zombie figures.
At exactly four o'clock in the afternoon, Yancheng, led by Spade King, held out, while Sencheng was unable to break through the second line of defense.
King Bai once again shifted his gaze to the motionless Miao City. Yi Tu felt quite relieved. This was undoubtedly very good news.
The Twin Cities successfully defended, and they didn't have to wait long.
Miaocheng's penetrating turret started working again, automatically locking onto the target enemy, and a familiar roar began to ring in the ears.
Before going up to the city road, Huasan looked at the members of Xingheng and said in a deep voice:
"No more mistakes this time. Once you catch me, I'll chop off my hands and feet. Do you understand?"
"Got it, Captain!" the Xingheng members responded in unison.
The main defensive members stood on the city road again. In order to leave enough space for the Xingheng members to perform, Yitu and Yunyao did not go up.
He believed in Huasan's strength. With the experience from the first time, he thought there should be an 80% chance of success this time.
However, in fact, Huasan did not disappoint everyone. Ten minutes later, they sent a white-eyed zombie with chopped-off hands and feet to Yitu.
The zombie struggled so violently that the wire binding it was almost embedded in its flesh. Its limbs were broken and blood was oozing from its entire body, but it seemed as if it didn't feel any pain at all.
Yitu looked at its pupils that kept switching between white and black, and subconsciously raised his hand to his mouth, signaling to the others present.
Don't talk.
The White King was watching them through these eyes, and it was on the verge of giving up.
Yitu stood in the blind spot of the zombies' vision and waved at Yunyao, signaling her to act quickly.
Yun Yao understood what he meant, closed her eyes and tried her best to release her strength, trying to shake the White King's mental control.
Even though just one white undead could destroy her and Xu Heng's control abilities, the white undead was, after all, the White King's heir, and possessed the same ability core.
However, the captured zombie was qualitatively different. It was just a tiny one among the millions of mental powers dispersed by the White King.
Even if the White King noticed it, there was nothing he could do. He could stop the loss in time, but he couldn't control his mental power to kill people.
This was the rule of the game that Yitu discovered early on. Gambler's games have always been fair and just. There is no absolute strength, nor absolute weakness.
Therefore, when the White King is almost invincible in the field of mind control, it means that its body is very weak or its mental power has obvious flaws.
However, it was this completely negligible flaw that was discovered by Yitu and became a fatal flaw.
Under the control of Yun Yao's temptation card, the frequency of the flashing of the white pupils became faster and faster, almost falling into a state of madness.
Yi Tu smiled when he saw this. King Bai still did not give up fighting with Yun Yao for control of the zombies.
"Try it." He looked at He Zixi and said softly.
He Zixi understood what he meant, and took advantage of the mental battle between the man and the two ghosts to try to share their perspectives.
He has a skill card that allows him to share the player or NPC's vision for a short period of time, thereby obtaining useful information.
But He Zixi's name is not famous because of this skill card. In fact, it is just a secondary card. His truly famous god-level card is called the Secret of Death.
This card can bring him back to life and effectively circumvent the game.
This means that even if he dies in the game, he will be resurrected as soon as the cooldown of this card is over.
By that time, the game would have already ended, and he would be directly resurrected in reality.
Therefore, He Zixi, who has this card, often exists as a victim in the Demon Fang Team.
His purpose is to explore the way for his teammates, or to make great sacrifices when necessary. This is where he got the name of the Resurrectionist.
"Can you see it?" Yitu asked in a deep voice.
He Zixi didn't say anything. His white pupils were flashing too fast, and the vision he shared was too blurry to see clearly.
"Yun Yao, you have to let it stabilize."
Seeing this, Yitu had no choice but to remind him again.
Yun Yao bit her lip when she heard this, and her fair forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.
The White King's control ability was so strong that her spirit was dragged forward by tens of thousands of hands as soon as she entered. She had to use all her strength to keep herself steady.
Yun Yao's lips were bitten until they bled, and her white pupils gradually turned black. Although it was still not stable, it was much better than before.
He Zixi took advantage of the moment when Yun Yao had the upper hand and captured an extremely brief scene.
"Did you see that? I can't control myself anymore!" Yun Yao said anxiously.
He Zixi opened his eyes and quickly reported a location.
"23 kilometers at ten o'clock!"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and Yitu quickly reacted:
"It's in Yancheng!"
He immediately sent a message to Jiang Hanyu, telling him the current location of King Bai.
The man who had been paying attention to the game panel replied to Yi Tu's message in seconds.
At this moment, the great devil Spade King was standing on the city road, his eyes fixed solemnly on the right.
The moment he raised his right hand and then pulled it down, the huge miracle of the Wheel of Judgment began to appear behind him.
The big devil had the intention to kill, but with his little remaining patience, which had long been worn out, he could only hold on until he received news from his spouse.
Otherwise, the bow would have been opened long ago.
Jiang Hanyu's arrow of judgment fell like a meteor, so fast that it was impossible to dodge.
Yi Tu looked at the position he judged to aim at on the screen, which was almost the same as the position reported by He Zixi.
The moment the arrow fell, golden light spread out a gorgeous illusion on the earth.
The huge tide of zombies was forcibly broken through by it, and within a hundred meters where the arrow feather was, there was a pure and uncontaminated land.
No zombie could escape the power of the Arrow of Judgment, except the young man who almost caught the tail of the arrow.
Everyone who saw this scene was shocked, and Yi Tu couldn't help but frown.
Not only did the White King not die, he was also unharmed.
Except for a pair of strange glass-bead eyes, the boy looked like a normal human being in every other way.
The white light shield covering him dissipated as the arrow feathers dissipated.
The boy tilted his head, his expression innocent yet a little confused.
Soon, a tide of zombies rushed towards his location and quickly enveloped him.
The boy was lifted above the head by a giant zombie, and he sat obediently on the giant's shoulders, squinting his eyes and looking towards Yancheng.
That was the direction where Jiang Hanyu was.
The man's face was gloomy. He dropped the bow in his hand, and the miracle behind him slowly dissipated.
"It's actually immune to damage." Wei Zhou also felt quite powerless at this moment.
"Not entirely." Shen Yueshu said:
"When it gathered the protective shield, the white pupils of these zombies all disappeared."
"They're receding." Shen Yueshu added.
At this moment, after receiving the order from the White King, the zombies in the three cities of refuge all retreated like a tide and soon disappeared from everyone's sight.
Yi Tu and He Zixi were taken back to Yancheng by Jiang Hanyu in time, and they had a chance to breathe for a while.
Yitu's mind kept recalling the previous scene, where the White King was actually able to avoid the damage caused by the divine weapon.
If even Jiang Hanyu's Arrow of Judgment can't hurt it, how can they win this war?
As if he could see the troubles facing his spouse, Jiang Hanyu grabbed Yi Tu, who had been walking forward in silence.
"What's wrong?" Yitu asked belatedly.
Jiang Hanyu smiled helplessly, "Are you being too stubborn?"
"Whether we win or lose this joint competition, it's just a data evaluation in a gambler's game."
"When a new mode is developed, there are often rules that are difficult to break. The purpose is to test the upper limits of the players."
Yitu's heart moved, "Have you encountered this before?"
Jiang Hanyu nodded, but did not say it explicitly.
Gambler games do continue to develop new card fields or modes. Sometimes game testing kills many players, and sometimes players crash the system.
Although the former cases are common, the latter also occurs quite frequently.
In the previous scene, Jiang Hanyu only shot one arrow and did not reach his limit.
As for the White King who was retreating at the tide, enduring that arrow just now was probably his limit.
Even though Jiang Hanyu wanted to kill King Bai, he was not so irrational as to fight to the death.
The system is testing their strength in disguise in order to improve the player profile data. Jiang Hanyu is not a fool.
Yitu knew what the man meant, but still felt a little unwilling.
"But I don't want to lose."
Jiang Hanyu smiled upon hearing this, "I remember that you didn't have such a strong desire to win before, right?"
Yitu was stunned for a moment, and a trace of embarrassment flashed across his fair face.
"It's not really about the desire to win, it's just that I don't want to give up all my efforts."
Yi Tu glanced at Jiang Hanyu's injured hand, and thought about how much effort he had put into it.
"Otherwise, almost a month's effort will be wasted."
"It's such a disadvantage." Yitu sighed.
Hearing this sigh, Jiang Hanyu smiled.
"You can't even bear this little loss. Are you planning to repay me with my life for all the benefits I've taken from you?"
After he finished speaking, he reached up to Yi Tu's slender waist, kissed the stunned man's ear with his thin lips, and then sighed with satisfaction:
"Anyway, I'm lucky."
Yitu was annoyed: ".......Can you please have some shame!"
Where were these two people? They were standing in the corridor, where someone could come up at any time, and Jiang Hanyu had the audacity to stick close to him.
