The chaotic battle that Mingmei predicted was not just a random guess.

Seeing Mu Chen remain calm and composed despite facing attacks from four people, Mingmei was truly amazed.

He was even able to multitask throughout the entire process, talking non-stop while dismantling the fragile alliance of the four players in front of him.

【GuiGui, why do you think he's so amazing?】

[Host, you can do it too if you want to; your fighting skills are also very strong.]

Even the ghost could sense that its host's eyes were practically sparkling as she looked at Mu Chen.

What does this signify?!

Is this something that even a 66-year-old adult like him can accept?!

【Yeah, I know~ But I'm not talking about his fighting skills, I'm talking about his brain. Even though the other side had more people and a stronger presence, those four people still couldn't overpower him in terms of sheer presence.】

Mingmei, perched on a tree trunk, watched the fight unfolding not far away. They whispered amongst themselves, discussing the battle, wondering who would be the next target.

Whether it was a telepathic connection or not, just as Mingmei felt that the battlefield needed some kind of change, Mu Chen directly blocked Bai Xiao's dagger thrust at her head.

Grabbing the other's wrist, Mu Chen suddenly turned around, dodging the sneak attack from behind, and then tried to stab Bai Xiao, along with the dagger, into Lou Jia's chest, who was sneaking up on him from behind!

"Danger!"

What was unexpected was that at the last moment, Da Yao jumped out from the other side and used a tree branch to deflect the dagger that was thrust at him, saving Lou Jia.

Since he didn't want to strike the person, Mu Chen released his grip on Bai Xiao, causing her to fall right in front of him.

Just as Bai Xiao stumbled and brushed past Mu Chen, Mu Chen whispered in Bai Xiao's ear, "Even now, can't you tell who's in cahoots with whom?"

"Lu Xiaoyao" didn't care whether Lou Jia lived or died in order to save her, even though her position just now was not a matter of incidental rescue!

If it was intentional, why didn't Mu Chen make a move when his hands were restrained?

Some things can be kept quiet so you can pretend not to know, but once you say those words, the impact is absolutely explosive.

Mu Chen's detail was also noticed by Mingmei.

Mu Chen clearly saw the slight movement of Bai Xiao's lips the instant she rushed past him.

Although she couldn't hear what Mu Chen said, Mingmei had already guessed most of the situation from the scene.

This is a huge problem for the Yao people.

Mingmei expressed regret that Da Yao had just saved Lou Jia. At least for that instant, Julian, who had just attacked Mu Chen, also stopped his attack.

His gaze remained fixed on the direction of Da Yao and Lou Jia.

Even Bai Xiao could notice that Da Yao intentionally saved Lou Jia, so how could he not see it?

In that instant, Julian was certain that Lou Jia had secretly allied with another person without his knowledge.

If he were to kill Mu Chen now, what would happen next?

Could he become the "1" in the next 1v3 scenario?

After rescuing Lou Jia, Da Yao belatedly realized that she seemed to have been tricked by Mu Chen. However, she could not stop now. Eliminating Mu Chen as soon as possible was the best option, otherwise she would face a 2v3 situation at any time.

Therefore, the scene of "14" that followed was so bright that I almost laughed.

The battle between the four players with ulterior motives and Mu Chen was more like a joke.

Even though Da Yao kept emphasizing how terrifying Mu Chen was, saying that the other party's psychological warfare strategy must be because they were afraid of the four of them, and kept stressing that Mu Chen should be dealt with first!

However, just as Mingmei said, this attack on Mu Chen means that this game is really coming to an end.

The first to be eliminated was Dayao.

Bai Xiao finally stabbed Da Yao with the dagger in her hand, and at the same time as Da Yao was stabbed, she also plunged the sharpened tree branch in her hand into the other party's neck.

"Feel sorry."

Since they knew each other in private, and the game turned out like this, Bai Xiao still chose to apologize to Da Yao when she logged off.

"Yes, I'm sorry too. I hope that when the game ends, we can both forget this unpleasant memory."

Da Yao felt it was better for Lu Xiao Yao not to know about this part of her memory.

Mingmei had to praise Mu Chen for his actions. Although she didn't know why Bai Xiao suddenly did this, it must be related to what Mu Chen had said earlier.

Then, this sudden wave of events was quite unexpected.

Mingmei remembered the school's mental health room. She had heard Lu Xiaoyao mention it before. Apparently, students at the school were under mental health monitoring the entire time they played games.

Players who have a poor gaming experience or who are traumatized by the game will be notified to go to the mental health center after the game ends.

In response, Lu Xiaoyao complained to Mingmei, "How could such a sunny and beautiful girl like her have any problems?"

Well, I guess those two will be going again.

Two of them were killed in an instant due to internal strife, leaving Julian and Loujia dumbfounded.

[Meow! Look at their positioning, Gui Gui!]

Mingmei was just about to lament the complexities of human nature with Guigui about Da Yao and Bai Xiao's sudden act of mutual destruction when she discovered a new trick for the remaining three players.

【What's wrong? 】

[Did you spot the triangular formation?]

【Um. 】

The alliance between the other two players has also broken down, and it's now 1v1v1.

The alliance between Julian and Lou Jia was already on the verge of collapse due to Mu Chen's words and Da Yao's act of saving Lou Jia. However, Bai Xiao's sudden betrayal made Julian even more distrustful of Lou Jia.

He worried that Lou Jia would betray him like Bai Xiao had done.

The current situation is quite delicate.

Lou Jia wasn't stupid about Julian's changes; he was even afraid that Julian might use Mu Chen to harm him.

This is really the end.

Mingmei covered her face with her hands. After all, she couldn't beat Mu Chen in a 1v4 situation just now. Who gave them the confidence to fight in a 1v1v1 situation now?

...

"Alright, let's go back."

Mu Chen didn't even bother to clean up the bodies. After dealing with the remaining two people, he turned around and smiled at the tree hiding the bright sunshine.

Behind her were several corpses, their faces bathed in sunlight. This incongruity instilled a sense of fear in Mingmei, yet she couldn't help but move closer to them.

Subconsciously, a voice seemed to be telling him that the other person wouldn't hurt him.

"Do you need me to carry you down?"

Just as Mingmei was lost in thought, Mu Chen had already arrived under the big tree. He looked up at Mingmei, who was perched on a branch, his eyes gentle, and opened his arms: "Want to come down?"

"Um……"

Although she knew why the other person was extending their arm, Mingmei raised her chin and said, "I can get down by myself."

"I know."

"Then you're sticking your arm out?"

“I’m just giving you another option.” Mingming spoke gently and restrainedly, but when Mingmei lay there, meeting the eyes of the person below the tree, he looked at her like a devout believer yearning for the mercy of his high and mighty god…
