Chapter 228 Split the Hospital

Sezier could hardly hold it in, his expression completely cracked.

Seeing this, Xu Zhiyan put away the picture book and started adding fuel to the fire, his greed clearly revealed.

"Boss Sai, if you must kill me here, it may waste a lot of time and cause your mission to fail." Despite his messy appearance, he smiled very confidently, with only a few small white teeth exposed from head to toe.

"You know, I'm rich."

"Although I am weak, I have many items. I use the Human Skin Buddha only because it can replenish consumption infinitely in this copy."

This is indeed true. All the wealthy players have witnessed Xu Zhiyan's success. He takes drugs worth thousands or tens of thousands of points without blinking an eye.

Well, whether you feel sad or not is another matter.

"I really can't beat you."

Xu Zhiyan was very calm about this. The Iron Knight could chase him and hit him without adding any status. The injury on his calf was still hurting and he didn't know what had happened. If the opponent's status was improved enough, he would be killed with one hammer!

"But it's not that easy for you to kill me."

"Boss Sai, you don't want the mission to fail, right?" He blinked, with an innocent expression on his face.

The Iron Knight took a step forward, and the flame on the mace burned more vigorously, but without the Pope's order, she just stood there quietly.

Saiziye's face turned dark and he didn't know how to start speaking for a moment.

In the live broadcast room, the people who were just mocking and sitting on the fence started to shout and scream.

Just a few minutes ago, when they saw the anonymous bet of 10 million, they said that the other party was doing charity and their brains were kicked by a donkey. Who knew that the situation changed a lot in the blink of an eye.

[I was wrong. I shouldn't have mocked Anonymous for throwing away his 10 million bet.]

[+1, I think Anonymous's perspective is different from ours. He must have some strange secret code with Xiao Baiwan. We can tell that this guy is pretending! ]

[+2 Woohoo, I also want to have a secret code connection with Xiao Baiwan! I also want to make money! ]

【Make a little million, please help me! 】

[Although, he still can't beat the Pope, right? What the hell are you guys so anxious about! ]

[Because the Pope is really unlucky, he can't complete his mission hahahahaha. ]

[Look at him staring at the book in Xiao Baiwan's hand, his eyes are red.]

[Help! Hahahaha! Why is the Pope so unlucky! ]

[Although I bet 20,000 points on the Pope, I still have to say that when he and Xiao Baiwan are put together, it is impossible to tell who is more unlucky! ]

[Shaken! He is shaken! ]

In the messy garden, the air seemed to be frozen and almost stopped flowing.

Isn’t Xu Zhiyan nervous?

No, he was nervous, how could he not be nervous!

In fact, he is not as calm as he appears now. If his embarrassment at the beginning was pretended, then his calm and composed performance now is also pretended.

The Iron Knight was quite oppressive just by standing there.

Xu Zhiyan had no doubt that as long as Saizier opened his mouth, the Iron Knight would rush up and kill him without any hesitation.

At this point he could only pin his hopes on the Pope.

Thinking of Saiziye, Xu Zhiyan's pounding heart finally calmed down a little.

Thanks to his previous impulsive decision to save Yu Rou, he got a lot of information about the Pope and had a certain understanding of the Pope's cautious style of doing things.

The other party's appearance here means that their fourth round of mission is likely to be to eradicate the wish tree...

It is now more than an hour past midnight, and it is still unclear what will happen if the mission fails. Given the Pope's usually stable character, there is a 70% chance that he will prioritize the mission.

After all, you can kill him at any time, but the mission has a time limit.

As Xu Zhiyan expected.

After a few minutes of stalemate, the Pope waved to the Iron Knight with a sullen face. After the other party retreated, he spoke in a deep voice.

“Leave the picture book behind.”

Unlike Xu Zhiyan, who had a ghost account and a special channel for watching live broadcasts, the Pope did not know that someone had applied for an open guessing game, nor did he know that their live broadcast room was already full.

"I'll let you live one more day."

His confidence in his strength made him decide to kill the other party tomorrow.

After hearing these two sentences, Xu Zhiyan finally felt relieved.

I guessed right. The Pope had indeed received the mission of the wishing tree in this place late at night. As long as the other party still has needs, there will be room for maneuver.

"I'm not saying this, Boss Sai, what you did was not fair."

Xu Zhiyan rested his elbow on the human-skinned Buddha's arm, his face full of disbelief: "Who wants clues for free? Do you usually exploit other players like this?"

After saying this, he turned around and looked at the Iron Knight, feeling heartbroken.

"My friend, I don't think you are unreasonable. Your boss is so unkind, why don't you consider changing someone else? I will pay you double the salary he gives you."

The blatant poaching has put Sezier on the brink of collapse.

"Xu Zhiyan, shut the fuck up!"

Damn it! It’s so annoying! It’s not that he can’t kill him, but tonight’s encounter was too unexpected. He never expected Xu Zhiyan to come to him on his own.

The mission has a time limit, and killing this guy takes time, so the two conflict with each other.

Just when the stalemate was at its peak, Xu Zhiyan and Sai Qiye were both stunned for a moment, one restrained his smile a little, and the other suppressed his anger, but Xu Zhiyan patted the human skin Buddha the next second and looked as if nothing had happened.

The two then looked at each other, and Saizier quickly turned away.

Xu Zhiyan seemed to have thought of something and suddenly laughed out loud: "Boss Sai, are you sick? It's not a good sign to be sick at this time, but will it be fine if I take some medicine?"

The Iron Knight was slightly stunned and turned to look at the Pope.

The nighttime onset period will attract special NPCs, and the intensity of the battles is extremely high. Last night, the Pope attracted a mutated head nurse, who even she found difficult to deal with.

If it takes too long...it might really delay the mission.

Seeing Saiziye's gloomy expression, Xu Zhiyan touched his chin and suddenly realized.

"Boss Sai, you are not... running out of medicine, are you?"

Judging from Sezier's performance just now, the other party must have been ill for quite some time, at least he can't get through it by taking medicine.

Xu Zhiyan shook the small package in his hand, which contained four inhibitory drugs.

He had six pills in total, so he had to save some for himself.

"I have a channel to get the drugs. Boss Sai only needs to spend a little money. One pill costs 50,000. I'll give you 47,500 points at a 95% discount."

"...Xu Zhiyan you!"

Feeling the worried gaze from the Iron Knight, Saizier was shocked to realize that the rhythm of the scene had been completely diverted by Xu Zhiyan.

He suddenly calmed down, took a deep breath, adjusted his expression, and spoke coldly.

"Four pills, plus the clue to the wishing tree, and I will give you 300,000 points." The effect of the light prison is still there. Once he gets the clue to the wishing tree, he will kill the hateful guy in front of him!

Three hundred thousand points...just consider it as feeding the system.

Hearing that the other party didn't even want a discount, Xu Zhiyan immediately gave a thumbs up and praised: "Boss Sai is so generous! I like making friends with people like you!"

When several people are in the light prison together, the NPC will definitely give priority to finding the player who is sick. The best solution is for the Pope to choose temporary reconciliation.

With the help of the conditions that caused Sezier to fall ill, the atmosphere between the two eased a lot.

In the Pope's live broadcast room, the audience sighed and many of those who had placed bets regretted that he did not kill Xu Zhiyan in one breath.

[Ahhh why don't you just kill him! It won't be a big problem! ]

[Indeed, although it would waste some time, it would be difficult for Xiao Baiwan to resist a knight in his prime.]

[Is it okay? I think I can understand. Mr. Pope is usually very cautious, and he rarely kills innocent people. He was not so impatient when he killed millions of people. It seems normal now. ]

[Hey! I just want to see the Pope kill Xu Zhiyan so we can get points!]

[…I just came back from Xu Baiwan’s live broadcast room. How should I put it? I suddenly don’t like the Pope very much. He seems a bit indecisive.]

[Forget it! Even if you are indecisive and don't withdraw from the Light Prison, three Xu Baiwan will not be enough to fight against the Iron Knights in their prime.]

In the garden, Iron Knight paid Xu Zhiyan 300,000 points as reward and successfully obtained four pills of medicine.

When it comes to transactions, Xu Zhiyan is indeed trustworthy.

"Okay, the drug transaction is over. Boss Sai, would you like to tell me what difficulties you encountered?" Meimei received 300,000 yuan. He was very enthusiastic, as if he had no idea that the customer in front of him wanted to kill him.

Seeing that the Pope swallowed the medicine silently and was unwilling to speak, the Iron Knight spoke in a low voice.

"The mission is to eradicate the wishing tree, but we found this place according to the clues and didn't see the wishing tree." She put away the mace and showed some kindness.

It is already past one in the morning, which theoretically should be the time when all kinds of strange things happen most frequently.

But the whole garden was empty, with only the tree pit left.

"Apart from this, is there anything else unusual?" Xu Zhiyan asked.

Thinking of certain situations, Iron Knight added: "We encountered a few ordinary NPCs when we came here, but they seemed to be in some kind of disease state and were very aggressive."

When they were attacked, they were worried that those NPCs would affect the mission, so they just dealt with them.

Xu Zhiyan crossed his arms, frowned, and shook his head: "It looks like you killed the NPC who called the wish tree."

After briefly explaining the contents of the picture book, he put on a deep expression and sighed: "Well, according to the clues, the wish tree was born from people's wishes, and those NPCs are the key to summoning the wish tree."

The two of them killed all the NPCs. Without a strong enough desire, the wish tree would of course not appear.

"What should we do then?" Saizier finally reacted.

He knew that giving Xu Zhiyan money would make him look stupid, but if he gave the money and still couldn't complete the task, wouldn't he be extremely stupid?

Xu Zhiyan hid behind the Human Skin Buddha and clapped his hands, smiling brightly.

"With me here, it won't be a problem!"

"If it were someone else, they might be helpless, but it's different for me. I'll just have to charge extra... Alas! Boss Sai, I know you're anxious, but don't be anxious! Just listen to what I have to say!"

He talked a lot and in a rush, which made the veins on Saizier's forehead throb and he almost got into a fight.

The young man hid behind the evil Buddha, raised his hands and gestured, then took out a palm-sized bowl. Judging from the luster of the porcelain, it was a prop.

"I remember that Boss Sai has a light-based skill that can strengthen his physique for a short period of time. Hit him here!"

Xu Zhiyan stuffed the bowl into the raised hand of the Human Skin Buddha, asking the Human Skin Buddha to hold the white bowl steadily.

When I was watching the live broadcast in the safe house before, I accidentally discovered that one of the Pope's skills could temporarily increase the body building level of the person being treated, completing a short-term strengthening.

After reading it, Asa said that light is also a usable material in the development branch of the technology tree.

It puts pressure on Xu Zhiyan, hoping to have a chance to get some.

There were so many messy props in the safe house, and many things that could carry light, so this skill was recorded on Xu Zhiyan's special item purchase list.

I thought I would never find an opportunity in this lifetime, but I didn't expect...

"One skill! Just one skill! You don't have to pay for it if it's broken." Seeing Sai Qiye standing there in a daze, Xu Zhiyan urged him bluntly.

"Xu Zhiyan, what are you doing?" Sai Qiye yelled at him.

Seeing that the Pope was not cooperating, Xu Zhiyan raised his hand and said solemnly: "I promise this is the last of these things! Move quickly."

“…”

Sezier was so angry that he almost laughed.

The Light of Body Forging is one of his enhancement skills, which can only be used in the dungeon and can only be used once in each dungeon. The effect is actually average. It only increases the strength of the various functions of the body of the person being cast by 20% in a short period of time. However, after the skill usage range ends, it will retain a 2% permanent effect, so it is particularly precious.

Previously, he would give this skill to Zoffy before the end of the dungeon to continuously strengthen the Iron Knight.

He felt that he had been defrauded by Xu Zhiyan.

But the money has already been paid. If I stop now, the 100,000 points given earlier as the cost of silence will be a bit high.

Surprisingly, the Iron Knight spoke first: "Sir, the mission is more important." Her loyalty is unquestionable. Compared with her own strengthening, she cares more about Saizier's mission.

"……All right."

Saizier raised his hand, and a faint golden light shot out from his palm, falling steadily into the bowl in the human-skin Buddha's hand, and was caught by the white bowl prop.

The next second, a black substance spread out from the entire edge of the bowl, completely blocking the light flowing in the bowl.

"Xu Zhiyan, you'd better keep your word."

Sezier's patience has run out.

Xu Zhiyan put away the bowl and nodded, a big smile on his face: "Don't worry, I'm a trustworthy person."

A few minutes later, Saizier and Iron Knight followed Xu Zhiyan's instructions, and the three of them stood in the three corners of the central area of the garden, facing the open space together.

Xu Zhiyan wiped his face and his expression became more serious.

The atmosphere at the scene finally changed from a large-scale fraud scene to a monster summoning ceremony.

Sai Qiye stared at Xu Zhiyan in front of the open space, and saw that the young man's expression gradually became more solemn. He was staring at the specially visualized game panel in front of him, and he was holding a yellow duck backpack in his hand. It was unknown what he was doing.

After a brief silence, there was movement in the center of the garden.

Suddenly, a small mound of earth appeared in the flat soil. A moment later, a bright red sapling emerged from the mound!

Now not only Sezier, but even the Iron Knight turned his attention to the young man who seemed to be performing some skill.

On the side, Xu Zhiyan's brows became more and more furrowed, as if he had encountered some huge difficulties, but as his expression became more solemn, the sapling grew faster and faster, and in just a short while, it grew into a tree more than two meters tall.

More than a dozen flower buds burst out from the branches and leaves that were stained red with blood.

The moment the flowers bloomed, the fragrance, so strong that it was almost nauseating, filled the entire area.

In just three minutes, Xu Zhiyan actually made the wishing tree appear!

Saizier came back to his senses from his shock, looked down at his task which was finally starting to make progress, and suddenly smiled.

"Xu Zhiyan, you are a businessman, but I am not." He raised his chin to the Iron Knight.

"Kill him and then kill the wishing tree."

The effect of the light prison is still there, Xu Zhiyan can't escape, and now that the wish tree has appeared, the mission will proceed smoothly.

Saizier raised his hand, closed his eyes and began to use the status bonus skill. Several rays of light flashed on the Iron Knight's body, and even the armor changed its shape. Iron wings spread out behind him, shining coldly.

Looking at the Iron Knight in his prime, the Pope's gaze softened a lot.

"Xu Zhiyan, the Iron Knight in his normal state may not be able to kill you with one strike, but in his Valkyrie state, she can even block the Ghost Lion's attacks, so she can't kill you... What are you doing? Did you even hear me?!"

Halfway through his solemn words, Sai Qiye discovered that Xu Zhiyan didn't even look at him, still staring at the wishing tree, with a few duck buns in his hand.

And within just one minute, the wishing tree entered a crazy growth mode, constantly climbing upwards and blooming countless flowers!

Saizier could no longer bear it and signaled the Iron Knight to take action.

However, the next second, an accident happened!

In the blink of an eye, the wish tree grew to a height of more than ten meters. Suddenly, it stretched out its vines and slammed towards Saizier. At the same time, dozens of branches grew into the shape of arms and flew towards the Iron Knight.

Before Saizier realized the problem, he subconsciously put up his light shield and looked at his panel.

Something’s wrong…something’s wrong!

Why do the levels of mission 4 start to climb?

[Task 4: Wish Tree [Random/Level 2→Level 5]]

[Progress: 15%]

[Tip: Level 5 is the highest level of the task, and all tasks beyond the threshold will be classified as Level 5. ]

Grass? Level 5 is the highest? Then what level is the strange tree that keeps growing in front of me? !

On the other side, Xu Zhiyan was already sweating profusely.

Seeing that the wishing tree had stopped the Pope and the Iron Knight, he breathed a sigh of relief, and a summoning box appeared on his bent fingers.

A special blue shadow creature was released, forming a large circle on the wall of the light prison behind him.

Shaking the summoning box in his hand, Xu Zhiyan wiped the sweat off his face and said, "I bought it at the safe house. It's a special monster summoning box that feeds on light."

As he was talking, this special shadow creature was feasting on the transparent wall and had already eaten it clean, leaving a hole with bumps and uneven edges.

“Shua——”

The Iron Knight swung the weapon in his hand, and most of the branches of the wish tree that attacked her were cut off. However, the wish tree that had grown to more than level five seemed endless, and the attack came again.

On the other side, the Pope was still in a daze and dodged the attack.

Although some monsters in the five-star dungeon are very strong, the wish tree in front of you, which was originally only level 2, obviously should not be that strong!

Looking at the branches tightly wrapped around the light shield, Saiziye was furious.

Cut off wave after wave, it seems that this tree is also replenishing energy infinitely!

Seeing that the two were entangled, Xu Zhiyan immediately strode out of the light prison and summoned his own electric scooter.

Glancing at the speed at which the branches of the trees around the Iron Knight were being cut off, he shouted inside with lingering fear: "Brother! If you can get out of this predicament, go check on your boss first! He's almost been wrapped into a ball by the branches!"

After shouting, he raised his hand to take back the small bone, rode away on his electric scooter.

Dozens of seconds later, Zoffy, who had broken free from the attack of the branches, hovered in the air, looking at the light of the electric scooter going away, dodged a new round of attacks, and rushed towards the Pope who was tightly wrapped in vines on the ground.

…

It was not until they drove into the dormitory building and left the garden far behind that Xu Zhiyan hurriedly stopped, quickly took out the only two remaining inhibitory drugs on him and stuffed them into his mouth.

Finally ran out!

He leaned against the shadow of the building, almost fainting.

Half an hour ago, he received the onset alert almost at the same time as the Pope.

[Tip 1: After 30 minutes, you will enter the onset state. Your onset time is 3 hours, and you need 6 pills.]

[Hint 2: It is detected that the number of times the player has fallen ill tonight is 2. Please distribute the medicine reasonably. ]

Tonight’s reminder was brought forward again and the duration was shortened, but it was compared to multiple onset reminders.

He was originally unable to defeat the Iron Knight, and now the situation was even worse. He didn't expect that Saizier's luck was as bad as his. From his expression, he could tell that he should have also received the illness notification.

Although there was some resistance in taking advantage of information gap to sell drugs and news to make money, the results were still pretty good.

And it was the wishing tree that really shocked him.

The Pope failed to find the wishing tree because he was attacked by NPCs. He killed all the NPCs attracted by the wishing tree as sick patients.

Without the wisher, the wishing tree will naturally not appear.

It is not necessarily that Sezier and Zoffy did not make a wish, but it is possible that nothing happened after they tried to make a wish.

There are too few people, and the growth of the wishing tree requires a huge amount of desire.

How can we get enough with just these two people?

The illness lasted half an hour longer, and all the tasks were completed. Xu Zhiyan was still relatively relaxed. Just as he was resting to recover his strength, a bony hand stretched out from Yaya's backpack, holding a small note.

[Master! ! ! ! Our bag is full! ! ! ! ]

From the frightened tone of Little Gristle, it can be seen that it now has no idea what to do and has even forgotten to change its name.

He quickly let Xiaokuigu out, and Xu Zhiyan leaned against the wall in a mess.

[Brother Xu! What’s going on! Why is it suddenly full?!] It didn’t understand. It just went out to make an offering to Ah Fo, but when it returned to the bag, it found it so crowded.

When tidying up the small refrigerator, it took out a duck backpack, which was full, and took out a duck backpack, which was full...

"There's not a single empty packet left?" Xu Zhiyan scratched his hair, not surprised at all.

"Maybe I made too many wishes."

Only a strong desire can make the wish tree grow, but wishes cannot be repeated. A wish grows into a flower, which represents a power.

[Ah? Brother Xu, how many wishes did you make?] Xiao Ke Gu was stunned.

It remembered that when it left, the wish tree was full of flowers, and many of them withered after being consumed, and then new ones bloomed again.

"It happened so fast that I can't remember clearly, maybe a few thousand? Tens of thousands? The main thing is that it can't be repeated."

From small things like toothbrushes, tissues and notebooks to big things like air conditioners, cars and small airplanes, his mind was almost racing during the few minutes he made the wish, and he kept sending greedy signals of "want" to the wishing tree.

"Tsk, it was just that things weren't going well when I got 10 million points." Xu Zhiyan sighed, his expression a little depressed.

The first thing he asked for was 10 million points, but a prompt popped up on the panel saying that it exceeded the quota. He then asked for 5 million points, but that didn’t work either. Finally, he hesitated and asked for 1 million points, which was barely approved.

"But the cost of points seems to be different."

Thinking about the content of the prompt, Xu Zhiyan was a little unsure.

"I made a wish for one million points. The wish tree wanted to take something from the most important person to me, but after Jiang Huai and the others flashed through my mind, the system said no, so I agreed."

At this he laughed himself.

"Apart from these stupid teammates, I don't have anyone who's the most important to me."

Little Cubic Bone was confused, but after making sure that there was no problem with the backpack, it stopped worrying and immediately went back to the backpack to tidy up the space, trying to arrange it carefully to see if it could make some more space.

After finally catching his breath, Xu Zhiyan put away his electric scooter.

Once a person relaxes, the pain in the body seems to be magnified countless times. Originally, he could walk briskly when facing the Iron Knight, but now he feels that the injury on his calf is particularly uncomfortable.

But when I looked down, it didn't seem to be any special attribute damage.

Although he made a lot of money in one night, the item he gave to Xiao Cui Gu alone was a one-time S-level defense item, worth tens of thousands of points. Plus the drugs he took himself, the total amount was about 20,000 to 30,000... He was so heartbroken!

Xu Zhiyan hesitated for a moment and limped towards Building 19.

Doctor Bai should be able to treat these simple wounds, right? And he was about to get sick, so he needed this guy to act as a suppressant.

Ten minutes later.

“Bang, bang, bang—”

Hearing the knock on the door, Dr. Bai, who was checking cases in the room, was a little confused. He didn't understand who would come so late.

But when he opened the door and saw the bruised and battered patient outside, his pupils shrank slightly and he looked incredulous, thinking he was hallucinating.

He reached out his trembling hand and touched the young man's face, where the wounds scratched by the pottery shards had already scabbed over.

Without waiting for Dr. Bai to ask, Xu Zhiyan, with tears in his eyes, rushed to complain.

"Dr. Bai! I met a guy who was ill at night. He seemed to be a doctor. His last name was Sai. Do you know him? He was so scary! He attacked passers-by indiscriminately! Don't we kick people like this out of our hospital?"

Well, I can't win by fighting, so I can only try to use a shortcut and kill Sezier first!

At the same time, at Yunshan old house.

The monsters were unusually lazy and did not work. Instead, they gathered together, squatting and watching the small thing on the floor in the middle of the hall.

This was a red monster that looked like a small sapling, only the size of a palm. The two leaves on its head were still trembling. It was shivering in fear under the gaze of a group of monsters, and its body was curled up almost into a ball.

The monsters chattered incessantly.

"What is this? How did it suddenly appear in front of Master Ghost? Can the monsters in the copy travel through space?"

"It looks like the wishing tree that Brother Xu just encountered?"

"Yes... this kind of thing can penetrate... space according to one's thoughts..."

"Wow, can I make a wish after planting this thing? I want a hair dryer."

"I, I, I want a puppy!"

"Shh... keep your voice down, the ghost master is still here! Watch your heads."

The monsters came to their senses and fell silent.

However, when they took a peek, they found that the owner of the safe house, who always disliked their noise, was not annoyed today and did not release low pressure to drive them away. Instead, he had a smile on his face and looked in a very good mood.

When the ghosts and gods noticed the space fluctuations before their eyes and a monster resembling a branch of the wishing tree appeared in the crack, they were still a little confused.

Equivalent exchange monsters are rare.

They use thoughts as a thread, can ignore obstacles, travel through space, and obtain their rewards.

But this is the first time I have seen a monster like that being paid to be above his head.

Just when he was puzzled and didn't know how to deal with this little monster, he heard Xu Zhiyan's explanation to Xiaokuigu.

Make a wish for one million points, and the wishing tree will take something away from the most important person to Xu Zhiyan.

The most important person...

He is the most important person to Xu Zhiyan.
