Chapter 71 Glass Heart
Yin Xiu got up from the ground and stared silently at the two pairs of handcuffs on his wrists, one black and one white, which locked his wrists tightly. Although the length of the chain in the middle was enough for him to move a little, it still restricted his hands and feet.
If he had known that the warden would be frightened into adding an extra pair of handcuffs, he should have simply closed the door and gone back to sit in the corridor.
Now, even if I untie the black handcuffs, I don’t know how to take off the extra silver handcuffs.
Yin Xiu sighed slightly, put down his hands and began to look around.
No one knew which floor the warden had hurriedly thrown him to. The surrounding walls were dusty and filled with an old and dilapidated atmosphere. The doors and windows in the corridor were all broken, and it looked like they had been gnawed by something, leaving curved gaps.
Yin Xiu walked along the corridor and looked out the window on the side of the corridor.
I don’t know what the structure outside the building is like, but I can see the corridors on other floors in the void darkness. The corridors on each floor are divided into sections, floating in the air, connected together in fragments and separated by doors.
From a distance, you can see players exploring the corridor, but the distance is relatively far, so you can only watch.
While paying attention to the players in other corridors, Yin Xiu walked to the end and opened the door at the end of his corridor.
He was probably in the middle of the corridor now. There were only dilapidated rooms and no floor numbers, let alone finding his knife according to the location on the note. He had to quickly walk to the end to confirm the floor number and then see if there was a staircase or something.
As soon as you open the door in front of you, the scene of the next corridor appears in front of you, and there is a player standing in the center of the corridor.
The man hadn't expected someone to suddenly show up. He was stunned for a moment when he saw Yin Xiu, then he immediately raised his hands to Yin Xiu and shouted, "Don't be nervous! I'm still handcuffed! I'm not a threat!"
Yin Xiu looked at him calmly, turned around and closed the door behind him, then turned back and said, "Don't worry, I'm not nervous."
The other party was silent for a moment and looked at Yin Xiu's wrist.
The fact that they were still handcuffed meant that they hadn't retrieved their props and weapons yet, and they weren't capable of causing any harm, but...
Why does this guy have two pairs of handcuffs on his hands?
The player hesitated for a moment, knowing he couldn't pry into other people's privacy. He could only awkwardly shift his attention away from the handcuffs and ask softly, "Since we haven't got our items back yet, why don't we just get along peacefully? What's your name, brother?"
Yin Xiu replied calmly, "My name is Ye Tianxuan."
Upon hearing the name, the other party's expression suddenly became complicated. "So you are Ye Tianxuan. I've heard of you... but rumors say you often use coercion and bribery to extract information from monsters, and you're pretty nice to players. You shouldn't be entering this dungeon, right?"
Yin Xiu covered his face with his hands, trying to look apologetic, and said, "In the last instance, I accidentally killed a strange monster while trying to get information."
As he spoke, he secretly peeked out from between his fingers and murmured, "Alas, I am truly deeply sinful..."
"Oh...it turned out to be a mistake." The other party looked thoughtfully at Yin Xiu's artificial performance, not knowing whether he believed it or not.
But he immediately showed his eagerness, "Since you are Ye Tianxuan, I will temporarily believe that you will not attack me, so why don't we cooperate."
The other party raised his hand and pointed to a door beside him. "I just found out how to conquer the Sin Gate on the way here. This happens to be a bathroom with a Sin Gate inside. It's just a little brutal. I haven't got the props back yet, so I can't solve it. So we can try to work together."
"The door of sin?" Yin Xiu glanced at the door on the player's side. There was a bathroom sign on it, which looked like a public shower room. This room was the only one in the corridor whose wall had not been gnawed, and it did look quite special.
"What is the method to conquer the Sin Sect?" Yin Xiu retracted his gaze and looked at the person opposite him.
The player hesitated for a moment, but decided to use this information to gain Yin Xiu's trust. "It's a challenge. After facing the Sin Gate, you will automatically enter a one-minute Sin Gate Challenge. As long as you can survive the Sin Gate's attack for one minute, you can obtain the Sin Gate. This method can only be used by those who were not favored by the Sin Gate at the beginning."
"You saw it too. The girl in the lobby is favored by the Sin Gate. She can bind directly, but the rest of us can only pass the challenge."
Yin Xiu nodded and began to think about his situation at that time. He was chosen, but he refused. If he encountered the Sin Gate again, would he enter the challenge or could he be directly bound?
Or will the criminals be so angry and embarrassed that when they see that it is him, they will extend the challenge to two minutes?
"So would you like to consider cooperating with me? I'll give you the Sin Gate then." The player actively tried to persuade Yin Xiu to agree.
Yin Xiu raised his eyebrows slightly, "Give me the gate of sin?"
"Yes!" The other party nodded kindly. "My props happen to be in this room. I want to take them back, but with the Sin Gate there, I won't last a minute. So you go in and attract the Sin Gate's attention. I'll get the props back to support you. Once you get the Sin Gate, we can go find your props together."
Yin Xiu raised the corner of his lips slightly, "Your props are inside. Once you get the props, I'm afraid you won't give me the Sin Gate."
The player's face froze, but he continued with a smile, "How could that be? You have the Sin Gate, so why would you be afraid of me with my items? You saw the power of the Sin Gate just now in the lobby. It killed a player with ease."
"What if you have a powerful item that can deal with the Sin Gate?" Yin Xiu raised his chin slightly and narrowed his eyes. "I'll go in to attract attention. If I don't last a minute, you can take the item and challenge the Sin Gate. If I do last a minute, you can use the item to kill me, the one with the Sin Gate, and take the Sin Gate away. No loss either way."
Having his secret plan revealed, the player's face darkened slightly and he sneered, "It seems you are unwilling to cooperate."
"But it doesn't matter if you don't want to cooperate. You can see that the Sin Gate on this floor likes to chew things. If you throw your corpse in, it will be interested in it. I can attract its attention a little and get my props back." After the player stopped pretending, his expression became gloomy and he looked at Yin Xiu as if he was looking at prey.
"I really like your current attitude." Yin Xiu nodded with satisfaction. There was no one in this dungeon who was nice enough. They pretended to be good players right away. It was really uncomfortable for him. It was more comfortable this way.
"But what makes you so confident that you can kill me?"
They both have handcuffs, and it would be difficult for them to kill each other given the restrictions on their movements.
The player on the other side scoffed, "Ye Tianxuan, if it were someone else I might not have thought of this, but if it were you, it's a different matter."
"Not only do I know that you're not very friendly to monsters, I also know that you're in poor health and a sickly person."
"Just now I noticed that you don't look very strong. I have killed countless players, so it's easy for me to kill a sickly person like you." The player smiled and twisted his wrists. The muscles on his arms were clearly bulging. It was obvious that the opponent was a power player.
Yin Xiu stared coldly at the other party's disdain and ridicule, then looked down at himself.
In the eyes of these muscular players, he was actually almost the same as Ye Tianxuan, which made him sad.
Yin Xiu sighed slowly, walked slowly to the broken window next to him, reached out and grabbed a sharp piece of glass, and broke it off with a click.
The other party immediately became alert, staring at Yin Xiu's every move with his fists clenched.
Yin Xiu calmly gripped the shards of glass, blood oozing from his palms. However, his face remained expressionless as he coldly stared at the man. He said darkly, "Although I, Ye Tianxuan, am not in good health, I still have a strong sense of self-esteem. I hate it most when others call me sickly."
"You hurt my sensitive and fragile heart, so I have to make you feel fragile too."
He smiled grimly and raised the glass fragments in his hand. Amidst the bright red dripping down, his eyes were filled with murderous intent. "It's just in the physical sense."
