Chapter 130 [(*^▽^*)]
Shen Yuesheng clapped his hands. "Well then, Mr. Qin and Mr. Zhao know about my situation with Miss Jiang. We both have long-range weapons, so we'll be responsible for providing long-range cover."
Xue Rui said nonchalantly, "Long distance? The furthest distance inside the entire Snow Mountain Villa is probably just the corridor. What's the point of a long distance for such a short distance from here to there?"
Jiang Xiaoyue and Shen Yuesheng immediately glared at Xue Rui with murderous intent, but he was not afraid at all, his words were so venomous and his tone was extremely disdainful.
He seemed to completely disregard Jiang Xiaoyue, the young lady, and was even more arrogant than Jiang Xiaoli, the young master of the Jiang family.
Qin Fengmian and Zhao Changzhou were both curious about who this Xue Rui was. Did he have a family member working in the Bureau of Order Management?
Even those in clerical positions wouldn't be this arrogant. Some members of the Jiang family work in clerical positions, unless they are in military positions, such as order enforcers.
If that's the case, then they are indeed very capable and have a high enough status, so there's nothing wrong with them speaking like that.
The two, who thought they had figured things out, looked at him with great admiration.
Xue Rui noticed their gazes, but didn't pay them any attention.
Jiang Xiaoyue no longer dared to be presumptuous in front of Xue Rui. After all, she and Qin Fengmian thought the same thing: although they had never heard of Xue Rui before, perhaps he had been low-key enough in the past?
Jiang Xiaoyue stared intently at him. "Then what do you want?"
Xue Rui: "Ha! I'm not going to hang out with you guys. Only weaklings hang out together. I'm going to do it all by myself. Whoever ends up dying is up to their own abilities!"
After saying that, he got up and walked upstairs, his arrogant and indifferent attitude showing that he didn't take them seriously at all.
Lin Leyou didn't feel anything when he said everyone present was weaklings, since he knew he was just putting on an act.
Neither Qin Fengmian nor Zhao Changzhou realized that they had also been scolded, and neither of them dared to look at Jiang Xiaoyue's expression.
Shen Yuesheng said with considerable envy, "He must have some very powerful weapons, otherwise he wouldn't have said something like that."
Jiang Xiaoyue took a deep breath and sneered, "Yeah, you have powerful tools, maybe even more. You look down on us weaklings. What are you thinking?"
Qin Fengmian and Zhao Changzhou dared not do what Xue Rui did, "We'll follow Miss Jiang."
Jiang Xiaoyue's gaze fell on Lin Leyou. "What about Mr. Lin? Are you also going to do it all by yourself?"
Lin Leyou stroked his chin, "I do have that idea, but..."
That was indeed his plan, but he didn't intend to say it directly. Instead, he hesitated, which made it seem to Jiang Xiaoyue and the others that he had some strength, but not to the level of Xue Rui.
Shen Yuesheng blinked and said with an innocent smile, "Ah! Mr. Lin, please don't say that! Xue Rui may be capable, but it's better for us to work together to be more reliable."
Lin Leyou looked at her for a while before saying, "You're right. So when do you think would be a good time for us to make our move? I'd like to end this game as soon as possible."
They all wanted it to end quickly!
Seeing that he agreed, Jiang Xiaoyue then said, "Let's skip tonight. The three of them discovered our intentions beforehand, and they might stay up all night to guard against us. Let's wait until tomorrow morning to take action."
Lin Leyou nodded, "No problem. Remember to let me know before you take action. My props are ready for the mission, so I can be at the forefront."
"Mr. Qin and the others have my number. Remember to contact me."
Qin Fengmian and Zhao Changzhou both gave a thumbs-up, indicating that they remembered the agreement they had made with Xue Rui and Lin Leyou.
They were definitely not going to tell Jiang Xiaoyue; they were waiting for this young lady to suffer a setback!
Jiang Xiaoyue and Shen Yuesheng seemed very happy. It was best if someone charged ahead, so they could throw a powerful item from behind and wipe everyone out at once.
As for what level of reward these people who died together will receive, that depends on who is lucky enough to die later, hmph!
The daytime passed quickly, and the idea of finding evidence to complete a quest after an NPC dies seemed far removed from their lives.
It's been a whole day already. Although everyone was very active in searching for evidence at the beginning, now everyone has become indifferent.
It was as if the mission didn't exist at all, and no one was going to prove that any NPC was the real culprit. Everyone was on edge, waiting for the bloody battle that could break out at any moment.
Since they were going to meet up and take action tomorrow morning, there was no point in gathering together now. After having a meal, Lin Leyou returned to his room to rest, and of course, sent a message to Xue Rui.
Qin Fengmian and Zhao Changzhou were also leaving, and Jiang Xiaoyue and Shen Yuesheng naturally wouldn't stay downstairs alone, so they both went back upstairs.
They openly went upstairs in front of the three players.
Wang Xin watched as the last person disappeared down the stairs before whispering, "It seems they don't intend to make a move now."
Ding Baishuang said, "I heard them arguing just now. They must have disagreed. The first one to go upstairs must have disagreed with them."
Lu Tianwen was very troubled. "What do we do now? Even if one of them leaves, there are still five left. The three of us against the five of them definitely don't have much of a chance of winning."
Wang Xin said, "If things really don't work out, we can just kill a few more. Anyway, losing this game instance won't deduct points. If we can kill one or two as fodder and survive a little longer, we can also get a decent points reward."
Lu Tianwen became interested. "Speaking of which, this dungeon offers pure points rewards, which is really great! One point can be exchanged for 10,000! I'm not greedy at all. Even if I only have a few hundred points, I can become a millionaire!"
Wang Xin wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Yeah, if you're a little luckier, you could get thousands or even tens of thousands of points!"
Ding Baishuang: "Alright, stop dreaming. What are you planning to do today?"
Lu Tian asked, "I think it would be better if the three of us didn't act alone today... no, not just today, but from now on. What do you guys think?"
Wang Xin: "I have no objection."
Ding Baishuang: "I have no objection either."
Lu Tianwen blinked, looking at them mysteriously, "Aren't you two afraid?"
Wang Xin asked curiously, "What are you afraid of?"
Lu Tianwen revealed a strange smile, "If... one of the three of us launches a sneak attack, kills the other two, and then goes to take them down with us, we can also get a decent reward that way!"
Ding Baishuang gave him a strange look. "What makes you think you can kill me?"
Wang Xin's heart raced. "I won't do that, and you can't either."
In fact, that was exactly what Wang Xin was thinking, but he never expected that Lu Tianwen would actually tell him what he was planning to do, which really startled him.
However... he has now dismissed that idea, since both of them were mentally prepared.
Furthermore, since Lu Tianwen has already spoken up, he certainly wouldn't do it himself. Ding Baishuang has the ability to avoid being killed, so in her view, she and Lu Tianwen Yu Yan obviously have the same ability and would definitely not take action.
Since that's the case...
He looked at Ding Baishuang hesitantly, "If the three of us act together, then tonight..."
Ding Baishuang gave him a cold glance. "What?"
Lu Tianwen quickly stood up, "Oh dear, oh dear, don't fight amongst yourselves! Chen Ying hasn't shown up yet, she must have been killed. If the three of us fight amongst ourselves, we'll only die faster."
Wang Xin breathed a sigh of relief. "I was just asking casually. After all, Ms. Ding... is a woman. She can't possibly live with two grown men like us, can she?"
Lu Tian asked, "What you said is right, then..."
Their gazes fell on Ding Baishuang, who gave a soft snort, "Don't worry."
She then took something out of her hand and handed it to Lu Tianwen, saying, "Take this. If I'm attacked, I'll come directly to your side to meet up!"
A teleportation item?!
Lu Tianwen smiled and took the item. Upon closer inspection, he found it to be a small paper figure. "No problem, you can rest assured that I will keep it safe."
He put the things into his pocket and solemnly patted his clothes.
During the day, everyone was at peace. Wang Xin and his two companions, who had been on high alert all day, were a little tired and returned to their rooms after dinner.
Of course, Wang Xin and Lu Tianwen were in the same room, Ding Baishuang returned to her own room, and Chen Ying did not appear until nightfall, so they confirmed that she had been killed.
The body was nowhere to be found, and no one seemed interested in looking for it.
As for who killed him, both the players and Jiang Xiaoyue unanimously believed that it was Xue Rui, since Xue Rui looked like a person full of murderous intent.
In Jiang Xiayue's room, only Shen Yuesheng was present.
"Alright, don't be angry. It's just that one of our heads was stolen. That's not important. What's important is how we can get the heads back from Xue Rui and Lin Leyou."
Jiang Xiaoyue was still furious. "How could I not know this? Who exactly is this Xue Rui?! Why have I never heard of him before?! Who is he...?"
Shen Yuesheng pondered for a moment, "Perhaps it's because his elders protected him too well before, and now that he's been released, his personality will be quite arrogant at first, since he hasn't been severely beaten yet."
Jiang Xiaoyue breathed a sigh of relief. "You're right. I've encountered plenty of idiots like this before."
"Maybe it's just empty boasting; he's not actually that capable."
But Chen Ying's death still made her a little wary, after all, she was someone who could kill a player on her own, and at least she wasn't such a fool.
