Chapter 98
When Jiang Hanyu approached, although there was still a smile on his face, the oppressive feeling he exuded made people's alarm bells go off.
Yitu quickly stepped back, feeling that this man was about to attack him.
But before he could dodge, Jiang Hanyu grabbed his arm.
The man didn't use much force, but Yitu was pulled to his side.
The moment he turned his head, he realized that the two of them were almost face to face, so much so that he could smell the cold and clean scent on Jiang Hanyu.
Their eyes met in the air, and Yi Tu's arm was held tightly and hotly by Jiang Hanyu.
"What are you doing?" Yitu glared at him and asked in a low voice.
The man frowned slightly, "Why are you running?"
"Since you're afraid of me, you still dare to be so stubborn with me."
Jiang Hanyu looked at him with a half-smile, his eyes full of teasing.
"Why, are you afraid that I will really flirt with you? Don't worry, I'm not interested in men."
Yitu also smiled wryly, "I feel relieved now that you said that."
He was not afraid that Jiang Hanyu would flirt with him, but this guy's train of thought always went to some inexplicable place.
As men, who would want to be flirted with? Unless he has something to hide, this explanation also has a bit of an air of trying to cover up something.
Thinking of this, Yitu couldn't help but shudder in her heart, and her gaze towards the man became a little subtle.
Jiang Hanyu: “?”
"I won't fight with you anymore." The man regained his composure and said with a straight face:
"The Night King is not a good person. If you cooperate with him, you will not gain any benefits, and you may even get yourself into trouble."
"Do you know what kind of deer is the mate of Stupid... Flower Umbrella?"
Yitu nodded and kindly reminded, "I know, sika deer."
Jiang Hanyu said "hmm" indifferently, "She used to be a member of the Night King's team. Like Hua Man, she was controlled by the Plum Blossom King."
"But then the Night King got tired of her and kicked her out."
"Do you know why?"
Jiang Hanyu looked at his spouse's face as white as jade, and his usually cold and hard voice softened a little unconsciously.
"Because it's no longer useful?" Yitu guessed.
Jiang Hanyu did not deny it. "The Night King likes obedient and well-behaved team members. He prefers fresh and novel ones to those who are obedient and well-behaved."
"After getting tired of him, the Sika Deer lost control of her emotions for a while. The Night King was annoyed and threw her away."
Yi Tu frowned slightly. Although he had a general idea about the matter, even Jiang Hanyu, who was usually indifferent to other people, used this to warn him.
The Night King really has problems.
"What I said before was just politeness. I have never considered cooperating with the Night King. Don't worry." Yi Tu explained.
Jiang Hanyu nodded in satisfaction after hearing this, and then added:
"Neither can anyone else."
"Don't forget whose spouse you are. How dare you hook up with someone else outside... Humph."
The man smiled at him gently, not hiding the threat in his eyes.
Yitu: “.......” Damn it.
-----
On the sixth and a half day of the linkage competition, all five protective cities located in the center of the circle have been opened.
Except for the first Yancheng, which was captured by the Demon Fang Team at the beginning, the other four defensive cities were also occupied by other teams one after another.
First, the Cube Queen Yun Yao used the energy core taken from the Zombie King Hei Tu to successfully open the Yaocheng, which covers the largest area.
Cube King Xingzhu and the affiliated teams of the Madman Team now have a place to stay.
Not long after Yaocheng was occupied, the Night King led his team to hunt for the zombies and successfully killed the zombie king Baicheng, thus opening up Sencheng, the most comfortable living environment.
On the fifth day, Miaocheng, which is rich in fresh water resources, was also opened by the captain of the Xingheng team, Spade Queen Flower Umbrella.
Huasan brought his team and affiliated teams into Miaocheng, and Yitu looked at the Xingheng viewing area, a hint of surprise flashed across his mind.
Although the Seventh Star is an affiliated team of Xingheng, Song Jingchen, the team leader, is not in it.
It was obvious that Huasan failed to appease the man, and he realized the seriousness of the problem, with a gloomy look on his handsome face.
The sika deer following behind him had a look of curiosity on its face, and looked relaxed and carefree.
The Cube King Xing Zhu actually let her go.
Yitu didn't know what exactly happened, but there was only one possibility: the deer not only convinced the King of Diamonds, but also made him accept her.
In this way, Lord Xing's side does not lose a throne player, and it is still the same as before, except that the Jack of Diamonds is played by a different person.
The Sika Deer and the Queen of Spades are a couple, so after she becomes the Jack of Diamonds, she is undoubtedly helping Lord Xing to win over the Flower Umbrella's side.
The current situation is becoming more and more confusing, and Yitu has no intention of guessing what these parties are planning.
In fact, as long as the fire does not irritate him, he will not meddle in other people's affairs.
On the sixth day, Gu Yongnian finally brought all the members of the Nightingale Team into the inner circle.
They wasted a lot of time on the edge of the inner and middle circles. After failing to capture more zombies or teams to rob, he prepared to enter the city when his food and water supplies ran out.
There are no supply stations in the inner and middle circles, which means that if the team wants to obtain food and water, they must go into the city and purchase resources from the city lord.
As for which team's territory to enter, Yitu decided to go to Yancheng without thinking.
After all, the Night King and the City of Sanctuary where the Umbrella is located are not taken into consideration at all. The former's intentions are unclear, and the latter has a grudge against the idiot.
As for Yaocheng where the Cube King is located, it is a bit far from their current location. On the way to Yaocheng, they will definitely pass through Yancheng in the middle.
So Yitu didn't think much about it, discussed it with the rest of the team, and went to Yancheng.
Who knew that when they arrived at the gate of Yancheng, they found that there were only a few teams at the toll booth of Sanctuary City.
The captain of one of the teams was a petite woman who seemed to know Gu Yongnian.
The man first glanced at Yi Tu and wanted to step forward to say hello, but was deliberately blocked by Gu Yongnian. A trace of embarrassment suddenly appeared on his face, and he had to speak to Gu Yongnian perfunctorily.
"That man is the captain of the Aurora Team, Little Rabbit."
Xu Heng knew that Yi Tu had no impression of him, so he simply reminded her:
"That's the one Gu Yongnian wanted to win over before the joint competition started."
After Xu Heng said this, Yi Tu immediately understood.
At that time, the Aurora Team was afraid of being implicated by cooperating with Nightingale, so they rejected Gu Yongnian's request.
Now Nightingale is in the limelight and is far ahead in the rankings, while the Aurora team is still far behind and is at risk of being eliminated at any time.
Making such a decision makes a world of difference.
However, Gu Yongnian seemed not to notice the embarrassment on the young rabbit's face, and smiled:
"Captain Aurora, what a coincidence! We can meet here!"
"Haha, that's indeed a coincidence." The young rabbit didn't know what to say and looked embarrassed.
"I haven't seen Aurora on the leaderboard. I thought you guys were eliminated a long time ago."
"It's good that I didn't get eliminated. It's a pity that I couldn't join forces with you guys, otherwise I could have moved up in the rankings."
Gu Yongnian has always been a gentle person, and what he said really sounded like he was very regretful.
However, the young rabbit was not a fool. The naked sarcasm in these words made her face turn red and blue, which was very pretty.
Not to mention the members of the Aurora Team standing behind her, who were so embarrassed and angry that they wished they could find a hole to crawl into.
But Gu Yongnian acted as if he didn't see it and continued to ask:
"Is Aurora also planning to enter Yancheng? The Great Demon King's approval hasn't come down yet?"
The young rabbit was so angry at him that he finally found his voice. He chuckled and said, "It should be soon. If you're in a hurry, you can go first."
"Oh, I'm so sorry, after all, you came here first..."
Although Gu Yongnian said this, he had already taken a step forward.
Even if the young rabbit is extremely angry, it has to greet them with a smile and give them space.
Although Aurora's team is ranked far above Nightingale, they dare not act rashly with the Queen of Hearts around.
The captain of Aurora was a woman, and after many considerations and with her tolerance, she managed to swallow her anger.
Yitu came to the toll booth and took a look, only to find out that there was no one at the so-called toll booth, it was just an advanced artificial intelligence recognition machine.
Just stand under the window, let the machine scan the faces of all team members preparing to enter the city, and fill in the specific team name and information below, the system will automatically transmit the data to the city lord's game panel.
After waiting for the city lord's approval and paying the entrance fee, they can enter the city.
The team in front of them waited for a long time and was finally allowed to enter the city by the big devil.
Yitu was cautious and glanced at the city entrance fee they paid, 20 B-level and 5 A-level energy cores, a total of 100,000 team points.
This price is definitely not cheap. You should know that this price does not include the money they will spend on purchasing supplies later.
Seeing that team member looking so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe, Yitu also felt pain.
Jiang Hanyu is a real dog.
But they didn't have time to compare prices. It would soon be dark, and everyone was tired and hungry after running around outside for several days.
They just wanted to quickly find a place to rest, but the shelters in the inner and middle circles could not withstand the next few waves of zombies. Sooner or later, they would have to enter the city.
It is better to enter early than late. The earlier you enter, the sooner you can enjoy a good environment.
"It's okay if it's a little more expensive. Anyway, we have harvested a lot of energy cores in the past few days." Ding Rong said next to Gu Yongnian.
Gu Yongnian nodded. They had indeed earned a lot of energy cores these days, and the 100,000 yuan entrance fee was less than one-tenth of their earnings.
He filled in the data one by one according to the process, and after pressing the send button, the system submitted the review to the city lord.
They originally wanted to wait for a while, but who knew that in less than a minute, Spade King replied to them.
Seeing this, Gu Yongnian felt so relieved.
However, when he saw the price quoted by the big devil, his face suddenly turned ugly.
Yitu's heart skipped a beat, and a bad premonition came to his mind.
"How much does he want?"
Gu Yongnian turned his head and whispered, "300,000! It's three times higher!"
"What on earth is going on?"
Yitu: "..." That bastard must have done it on purpose, right? It must have been on purpose!
He couldn't help it and immediately opened the intercom and sent a bunch of question marks.
Regardless of whether Jiang Hanyu replied or not, he really wanted to block this person directly, but the intercom did not have this function at all.
At this time, the Aurora Team standing behind them discovered that something was wrong with them.
The young rabbit stepped forward and asked in a friendly manner, "Hey, what's going on? Spade King won't refuse to let you into the city, will he?"
Gu Yongnian was in no mood to pay attention to her and replied coldly: "How is that possible?"
The young rabbit was not an easy person to deal with. He immediately guessed what was going on and said with a smile:
"Is it because you can't afford the entrance fee?"
"It's not your fault. After all, not everyone can enter the domain of the Great Devil King Spade..."
However, before she could finish her words, the amount on the indicator suddenly changed from 300,000 to 0.001W.
The young rabbit's words stopped abruptly, and Yitu raised an eyebrow slightly.
It was obvious that Jiang Hanyu was watching their every move.
Although it was enjoyable to tease him, it was indeed not the place for an outsider to make sarcastic remarks.
“Isn’t this easy to get in?”
Yitu smiled at the young rabbit.
The young rabbit didn't know what to say for a moment, and his face was filled with embarrassment and shock that could not be concealed.
At this moment, a soft and gentle voice sounded.
"Queen of Hearts, don't you have a place to live?"
Yi Tu looked over when he heard the voice, and saw Hua Man standing there obediently in her skirt, smiling sweetly at him.
In her hand, she held a dark red, pure energy core. Hua Man took a step forward, stretched out her hand, and said:
"This is a gift from the Night King to the Nightingale Team. Xincheng is waiting for its owner to move in!"
Everyone who heard this was stunned.
