Chapter 109, Unexpected
"Woman, you dare?"
Peng~
Zhong Bingxuan rolled her eyes. The cane was already in front of this person, and he still couldn't see the situation clearly. He insisted on questioning her whether she dared to do it or not. This was too much of a question.
With a single blow of his cane, Zhong Bingxuan smashed the prison guard captain's head open, splattering blood everywhere and creating a powerful visual impact.
The cowardly prison guard who witnessed this scene from a short distance screamed in fright. Zhong Bingxuan, holding her blood-stained cane, looked at the cowardly prison guard expressionlessly.
"No, don't kill me."
The timid prison guard was so frightened that he became incoherent and eventually fainted from fright.
"I don't think I did anything to this person, so how did they just faint? How did such a coward get the nerve to bully you?"
Seeing the cowardly prison guard's reaction, Zhong Bingxuan was speechless and didn't know what to say.
If the other party is cowardly, how could they be so self-righteous and fearless when bullying Hanmo? It's too much of a case of judging people by their status.
"Regardless of those people, Ah-Xuan, how are you doing?"
The two met a day ago, and only now have they had time to discuss the situation of the instance.
"Aside from the rules announced by the system, there are no other clues, which may be related to the fact that the safe period has not yet ended."
This is very disadvantageous for Li Hanmo. Due to his identity, he must leave before the dungeon starts, otherwise the crazy battle royale will really become a real-life version.
"I feel the same way here. And I don't think it's like the system would act if it were just a matter of letting the guards out for a walk. There might be a crisis targeting the prisoner players."
"Yes, it should be in the evening."
Zhong Bingxuan agreed with Li Hanmo's idea and offered her own thoughts.
"So what do you plan to do? You still have a task to deal with the strange occurrences in the instance, and more importantly, the scene is divided into three parts. Do you only need to deal with the strange occurrences in one part, or do you need to deal with the strange occurrences in the entire scene?"
If what Li Hanmo said about what happened next is true, then Zhong Bingxuan must find an opportunity to infiltrate the hospital and resolve the strange occurrences within.
"It seems impossible to get through by hiding. I need to find clues and solve the strange things in the prison."
She wasn't sure whether the other two eerie scenes needed to be addressed, but the eerie atmosphere in the prison absolutely had to be completely resolved.
"Hopefully it won't happen at night."
Due to the rules of the instance, Zhong Bingxuan is extremely dangerous at night; she would be seriously injured even if she didn't die. She prefers to be able to act and kill the strange creatures during the day.
"It's unlikely. The chances of the eerie creatures appearing during the day are low in the early stages, and they become dangerous later on. There must be some hidden clues that can help players kill the eerie creatures in broad daylight or go out to hunt them at night."
Li Hanmo was already quite aware of the system's malicious intent and didn't hold out much hope.
"Are prison guards considered strange?"
Zhong Bingxuan thought of the game between prisoners and guards. Wasn't this an opportunity to openly kill monsters in broad daylight, provided that the guards were also among the monsters?
"I don't know, Ah-Xuan, have you received any news?"
Li Hanmo, like Zhong Bingxuan, had just entered the instance, and probably knew less about it than Zhong Bingxuan.
"Then let's give it a try."
Zhong Bingxuan acted on her idea immediately, finding and killing one by one the prison guards who had bullied Li Hanmo that morning.
Because she wasted a lot of time, Zhong Bingxuan hadn't managed to deal with all the prison guards who were bullying her lover before the game time was up.
As soon as the game ended, Zhong Bingxuan received a message notification from the system.
[Ding! First-class cabin manager Zhong Bingxuan has successfully killed ten prison monsters. There are still ninety monsters remaining. Players, please keep up the good work and create more glory!]
Zhong Bingxuan looked up at the sky speechlessly. If she hadn't thought of helping her lover get rid of his enemy in the first place, she would have been completely clueless when the dungeon officially opened, not knowing how to complete the first-class mission, and would have been trapped in this dungeon forever.
Zhong Bingxuan told Li Hanmo about the system message she had just received. Since the game was over, in order to avoid suspicion from the prisoners, Zhong Bingxuan did not talk to Li Hanmo for long before returning to her team.
To be honest, this dungeon is quite friendly to players in other carriages. There's no danger in playing the game, and you can chase after the eerie creatures around, which is incredibly fun.
The same applies at night. As long as you follow the rules and don't go out, those eerie things can't do anything to the prisoner player, allowing them to successfully survive until the next day.
Thinking about it this way, Zhong Bingxuan felt extremely dissatisfied with the system's hostility towards their team.
However, what happened next overturned Zhong Bingxuan's deductions about the rules of the instance.
When she arrived at the line of prisoners and handed over her cane, she clearly saw expectant looks directed at her, leaving Zhong Bingxuan bewildered and completely confused.
"Prisoner 007 successfully killed ten prison guards, one of whom was the prison guard captain, and got 1900 points. Now, the last prisoner is announced as Wang Jiawei."
"Useless, useless, can't even kill a prison guard."
“Send him to hell with those worthless bastards, to be buried with them.”
...
Upon hearing the elder brother's words, the prisoners immediately launched a group attack, smashing Wang Jiawei's skull with just his cane.
Those who initially hoped to escape with a sliver of hope ended up with their heads blown off.
Although there were no other players here because the Undeterred by Wind and Rain team arrived at the instance early, and the one who was killed was just a local, Zhong Bingxuan still couldn't help feeling nauseous and dizzy.
It was so close! If Tu hadn't had that sudden idea to kill the prison guard and eliminate some potential dangers for her lover, she would be the one with her head smashed open now.
It turns out that the prisoner players are not without danger, and this game is not something that can be done or not done.
If you become the worst person in the game, you'll end up like the prison guard.
What about the nights? Can we also just barely survive them?
Other players might be willing to take a gamble, but Zhong Bingxuan couldn't. The system was too hostile towards their team, frequently launching attacks even during safe periods. She had to find a way to survive this deadly threat, even if she went out at night, to get rid of it.
Li Hanmo, who was standing not far away, also saw what was happening with the prisoners, and his eyes were full of anxiety.
Baby, hang in there, he'll help you find clues.
Aside from the exercise period, it's clearly more suitable for prison guard Li Hanmo to run around and gather information during other times.
Zhong Bingxuan's identity dictated that she could not move around freely and was constantly under the supervision of prison guards.
Even because Zhong Bingxuan successfully killed ten prison guards in the game, including a prison guard captain, the prison guards' attitude towards Zhong Bingxuan changed drastically. Their eyes became fierce, as if they wanted to bite Zhong Bingxuan to death.
Zhong Bingxuan finally understood why the prison guards treated the prisoners so badly. It wasn't a matter of life and death; the problem lay in their friendly attitude towards enemies who might kill them.
Even when Li Hanmo tried to get close to Zhong Bingxuan, he was violently shoved by his colleagues.
