Lin Leyou had been trapped by his family his entire life. Right after graduating from high school, he was forced to start working to support them, all because he had just gained a younger brother. ...
Chapter 761 [(*^▽^*)]
The first thing Lin Leyou thought of was the black line that had created a large gash on the ground of the residential area, the attack that had almost split him and Xue Rui in two.
When he thought of this, the dense black lines rushed towards him like a stream, and he accidentally got two of them on his hands.
As soon as the two black tentacles touched him, Lin Leyou immediately heard two system notification sounds.
"System notification: You have been attacked by Talent Long Night once and have lost 100 million points."
The system gave this warning twice, and in the blink of an eye, he lost 200 million points. He finally understood why Jiang Changdong was so confident in coming to find him.
I never knew it was like that!
It was too late. He crushed the prop card in his hand, the one Xue Rui had just given him. As he crushed it, his figure disappeared from the spot, replaced by Jiang Changdong.
At this moment, Lin Leyou appeared beside Qiu Baiyu, took out the Soul-Splitting Dagger, and when Qiu Baiyu looked over in shock, he kicked him directly, sending Qiu Baiyu crashing into his own front door.
Jiang Changdong was caught off guard by the overwhelming black lines inside. He probably heard the dense system notifications and let out a heart-wrenching scream.
To be honest, Lin Leyou never imagined that he would hear Jiang Changdong's miserable cries one day, and at this moment... the couple had already entered his home.
But he didn't get his permission, so... now he can make his move.
When Qiu Baiyu saw herself stepping through the gate, her scalp tingled. She immediately took out her prop and used it, and her figure disappeared from the spot. However, before her figure completely disappeared, she was still stabbed by Lin Leyou.
Qiu Baiyu naturally didn't know where she went. She must have used a teleportation item. She just didn't know where the other side was, but even if she left, it was fine.
After all, there's no time left to pursue them, since Jiang Changdong is the only one left here.
Lin Leyou's Soul-Splitting Dagger was no joke. He wasn't afraid of the sight of Jiang Changdong being entangled by countless black lines and was about to rush over when Xue Rui stopped him.
Why are you stopping me?
Xue Rui said, “These black lines will disappear once they touch someone, which is equivalent to successfully plundering 100 million points. But if you fail to plunder, they will not disappear. If you go over now and touch a black line that has not disappeared, you will lose points.”
Lin Leyou was stunned for a moment, then immediately pulled Xue Rui back a good distance before asking, "How did you know? Did you run into them too?"
Xue Rui: "Yeah, I lost 100 million points."
Lin Leyou gasped, "That's really insidious, absolutely vicious!"
Then he looked at Jiang Changdong over there, "Huh? Why isn't he making a move? And these black lines... they're all hanging on him, so why haven't they taken his points yet?"
Xue Rui frowned, then said somewhat uncertainly, "These black lines are clearly controlled by Jiang Changdong. The fact that the black lines are hanging on him and not moving means that Jiang Changdong has no way to control them."
Lin Leyou: "Then why doesn't he continue attacking us?"
As soon as he voiced the question, he thought of a possibility: if Jiang Changdong still had points, then these black lines would definitely continue to plunder points and then gradually disappear.
However, these black lines are now falling heavily on Jiang Changdong, but they don't disappear. And Jiang Changdong is still motionless, so this means... his points have reached zero, and he's dead.
No, the score should become negative for true death.
Xue Rui, "I estimate..."
Lin Leyou raised her hand to stop him from continuing, "Time's up."
Xue Rui was stunned for a moment, and then the black lines on Jiang Changdong's body slowly disappeared, as if to express that the hatred of the dungeon BOSS for Jiang Changdong was gradually disappearing as the dungeon ended and he died.
Lin Leyou, "Jiang Changdong's body has returned to its original state..."
After the dungeon ended, Jiang Changdong returned to his original appearance. He then opened his eyes with an expression of disbelief on his face, as if he were shouting, "Why did this happen?"
He never expected that he would be the one to be tricked and killed in the end; he never imagined that he would die like this!
Lin Leyou looked at Xue Rui and said, "Let's go. I need to confirm Jiang Changdong's death. I'll let you know once I've confirmed it."
Xue Rui nodded, "Okay."
If his golden prop can kill Jiang Changdong, then he'll have made a huge profit.
They both left the instance. Lin Leyou returned to the Happiness Community. At this time, the instance ended, and everything inside the house disappeared, returning to its original state.
He immediately sent a message to Hua Yun'an: "He's dead."
Hua Yun'an paused for a moment after seeing the message, then replied instantly, "Who died?"
Lin Leyou: "What do you think?"
Hua Yun'an, "It can't be what I'm thinking, can it?"
Lin Leyou said, "Go check it out. If nothing unexpected happens, he's definitely dead."
Hua Yun'an sat up. "Wait!"
Although he couldn't break the rules, he could still use the Bureau of Public Order's internal system to check whether a resident was alive or dead, Jiang Changdong...
He was stunned when he saw the latest basic information about Jiang Changdong: he died in the Happiness Community instance, he really died!
He immediately sent Lin Leyou a "no problem" emoji. Lin Leyou was relieved after receiving it and immediately told Xue Rui the good news.
He then sent a message to Hua Yun'an, "Can this information be leaked?"
Hua Yun'an thought for a moment, "You don't need to reveal it. People will find out soon. You just need to wait and see. Don't get involved."
Lin Leyou: "It wasn't me who killed them."
Hua Yun'an said, "I know it's you. This shows that you were killed by the dungeon boss's ultimate attack, so you need to keep a low profile, understand?"
Lin Leyou: "Thank you, I understand."
Lin Leyou waited excitedly at home, constantly refreshing the news page on his phone. He was sure that Jiang Changdong's death would attract a lot of media attention and reports.
Lin Leyou waited for about ten minutes, and unexpectedly, the news came out. He checked a lot of news, and Jiang Changdong's death had indeed attracted a lot of attention.
He then called Qin Xingyu, "Teacher Qin, it's me!"
Qin Xingyu doesn't keep up with the news all the time, so she was a little surprised to receive Lin Leyou's call. "What's wrong? You sound very excited."
Lin Leyou: "Quick, look at the news! Jiang Changdong is dead!"
Qin Xingyu was stunned for a moment, "Huh...what? Who died? Jiang Changdong?"
He immediately checked the news. At first, he thought he had died from a failed mission in the dungeon, but after reading it carefully, he realized that his points had been deducted to a negative number, which meant he had actually died!
Qin Xingyu: "What exactly happened?"
Lin Leyou felt a little guilty. Qin Xingyu was his teacher, so it wouldn't be a problem to reveal a little bit, right? But Hua Yun'an's warning was still ringing in his ears. Could he really say it?
Qin Xingyu, "Is this related to you?"
Lin Leyou said tactfully, "I wouldn't say that."
Qin Xingyu immediately understood, "Okay, stop talking. I know this needs to be kept low-key, don't tell anyone, okay?"
Lin Leyou: "Teacher Qin, what are you talking about? I didn't say anything."
Qin Xingyu immediately laughed and scolded, "Yes, you didn't say anything. I was just overthinking it!"
Lin Leyou: "Then I'll hang up."
Qin Xingyu cursed, "What a disgrace!"
He then hung up the phone first, while Lin Leyou happily rolled around on the bed, chatting with Xue Rui. Not long after, messages from Jiang Xiali and Lin Wanyi came in one after the other, both telling him about Jiang Changdong.
He replied to Jiang Xiali, "You know pretty quickly."
In Jiangxiali, "How could we not hurry? Everyone knows about my family and their family's situation. Now that he's in trouble, many people told us immediately."
Are you happy?
Jiang Xiali paused for a moment after seeing the reply, and the joy that had risen in her heart gradually dissipated. "Now that I think about it, it doesn't seem like there's anything to be happy about, after all..."
Jiang Changdong's family doesn't just consist of him; there are also Qiu Baiyu, Jiang Xiaming, and Jiang Xiayue.
Lin Leyou said, "So, this is actually just a small matter. Just look at it and move on. Don't get too emotional. If others see it, they might laugh at you."
Jiang Xiali sighed deeply, "I think I understand..."
Lin Leyou replied to Lin Wanyi, "How could you say it's related to me? I don't know anything about it."
Lin Wanyi said without any politeness, "You're in the Happy Community instance too."
Lin Leyou retorted confidently, "So what if I was there? It wasn't me who did it!"
Lin Wanyi: "It's definitely related to you."
Lin Leyou: "Don't you dare slander me like that. Just because you say it's related to me doesn't mean it is."
Lin Wanyi seemed lost in thought for a few minutes before sending a message: "It was just my imagination."
Lin Leyou, "?"
Lin Wanyi had calmed down by now. "I'm sorry."
Lin Leyou was a little puzzled at this point, "What happened to you just now?"
Her attitude and tone just now were so different from Lin Wanyi's usual self, as if she were a completely different person. But now that she's calmed down, it feels strange.
Lin Wanyi said, "I'm sorry, I was just in a bad mood."
The system won't record too much detail, but it won't make any mistakes in the actual cause of death. Jiang Changdong died from the dungeon boss's killing move, the Long Night talent.
The Long Night talent is indeed incredibly powerful, but this dungeon is of S difficulty. Under normal circumstances, the dungeon boss's ultimate attack, Long Night, can only plunder a few billion points at most, and nothing more.
How come Jiang Changdong doesn't even have a few billion points anymore? That's impossible... The only explanation is that some resident artificially used a special item to upgrade the BOSS's talent, Long Night.
Lin Leyou would never have this item, and even if he did, there would be no need for him to upgrade the dungeon boss. Jiang Changdong died in that dungeon, which means that Jiang Changdong used a certain item to upgrade the boss's talent. He originally intended to use it against Lin Leyou, but unexpectedly ended up using it on himself.
