Chapter 122 Confrontation Challenge
"It's not like that. Actually, the boss..." Someone wanted to defend Shen Wu, but they didn't seem to know where to start.
Shen Wu glanced at the place where he hit, and his deep eyes met Zhu Ci's gaze at the moment. Unlike the coldness in his eyes, a smile appeared in his eyes, like a burning flame.
"So, there is such an ending." He laughed unexpectedly, but it was more like a mockery, without joy, and gradually turned from amusement to madness.
Zhu Ci stood there, watching with a complicated expression.
"Mr. Shen, for Xiao Ci's sake, I can let bygones be bygones for what happened tonight. But since he has made his decision, shouldn't you leave as soon as possible?" Xing Boyi said.
"Leaving? Why should I leave?"
His sharp eyes were fixed on Zhu Ci's face, no longer concealing the aggression in them.
Zhu Ci frowned, finding it difficult to understand where his anger came from. He was clearly the one who was deceived and manipulated.
Shen Wu took a step forward and Zhu Ci took a step back.
His momentum was too strong, his attack seemed too natural, and his words of congratulation were too stubborn, but the two of them stared at each other with disappointment and anger, neither of them giving in, as if they owed each other something.
But in the end, Shen Wu's emotions were more intense, as if all the hidden emotions of these years were condensed in this moment. Zhu Ci turned his head to the side and sighed deeply. Fatigue filled his body and doubts arose.
Did he do something wrong in his previous life, so he had to be retaliated against like this?
"Okay, if you go any further, this matter will be difficult to deal with." Zhu Ci warned.
"It's hard to say. What's there to be hard about? I've said it, I won't leave unless you leave." He raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a wicked smile, but there was no trace of joking in his eyes.
Xing Boyi: “…” He remained silent, but his expression was as if he was facing a powerful enemy.
"Are you crazy? Don't you want to live anymore?" Zhu Ci couldn't help but ask.
"Instead of worrying about me, why don't you ask them, is it me who doesn't want to live, or is it them who don't want to live?" Shen Wu glanced at Xing Boyi, the smile on his face showing sarcasm and undisguised malice.
Zhu Ci glanced at Xing Boyi and noticed the beads of sweat on his forehead. Behind him was such a huge investigation bureau, while there were only a few people around Shen Wu.
It was hard to believe that such a disparity between the enemy and us could actually make the experienced Candlelight Guild leader break into a cold sweat.
It turned out that it wasn't that they didn't want to stay, but that they didn't dare to stay. What on earth had Shen Wu done? As a writer, he had never seen the other party wield a knife or a gun.
"So what do you want?"
"I said, I won't leave unless you leave. Unless they give me a room, otherwise..." He laughed, "No one can live here."
"Mr. Shen, you have to think about this carefully." Perhaps his words were too much, Xing Boyi spoke after careful consideration.
"Think about it, have you thought it through? I remember I warned you not to touch my things." Shen Wu clenched his fists, and his bones made crisp sounds. He looked at Xing Boyi with terrifying eyes, and the strong sense of oppression made people think of the phantom of doomsday.
Xing Boyi didn't say anything else, or it was difficult for him to speak.
The scene fell into silence again, including the three people brought by Shen Wu.
Suddenly, the sound of a gun being fired was heard.
After seeing Zhu Ci smoothly take out a gun from the hand of the person next to him and point it directly at Shen Wu's forehead, Lin Chen blurted out "Fuck".
Then he shut his mouth. He didn't expect that the person Shen Wu liked would be so tough. He was so young and wanted to take everyone to death.
Even Xing Boyi turned around and looked at Zhu Ci in surprise.
Shen Wu raised his eyebrows and smiled instead of getting angry: "My dear, you really make me miss you like this."
Congratulations: "..."
But in the next second, he turned the muzzle of his gun and pointed it at himself.
Shen Wu: “…” His expression changed.
"Do you think I haven't seen you die before? You overestimate yourself." He said coldly, but his eyes looked murderous.
Toast: "I will not shoot myself."
Xing Boyi reminded: "Xiaoci, the gun may go off accidentally."
Cheers: "Well, it's a blank, but you know what I mean."
Do you dare to bet that this is a blank gun?
"You haven't touched a gun, how do you know if there are bullets in it?" Shen Wu asked coldly.
Cheers: "That's something you need to consider."
His attitude is very clear.
Zhu Ci hated threats and would not let Shen Wu get his wish tonight no matter what.
Maybe Shen Wu was right. If they didn't hide their personalities, they might not be together. They were both too stubborn.
At least now, Zhu Ci doesn't like his autocratic character. If someone threatens him with other people's lives, then he can only threaten the other party with his own life.
However, seeing his flustered and gloomy expression, Zhu Ci still felt confused.
Why is it that you are the one who deceived, but your expression makes it seem as if he is the one who betrayed?
"Okay, you win again, but I didn't expect you to take advantage of my feelings. Next time we meet, I won't hold back."
Zhu Ci watched him leave after saying those harsh words, and couldn't help but use more force with his fingers.
"Bang."
The sound of gunfire shook the earth.
Shen Wu turned around suddenly, only to see Zhu Ci putting down his gun, intact.
He calmly admired his panic, waving his hands, saying nothing but seeming to mock him.
"You see, I didn't lie to you. And you always lie to me."
It is an empty gun, for sure.
In this round, the one who likes to lie loses.
Shen Wu stared at him and suddenly smiled: "You will understand." Otherwise I will make you understand.
He turned around, as if he had figured something out, and watched him leave after leaving a few words.
Zhu Ci had a cold expression on her face, but she was thinking in her heart that she had completely offended her ex-boyfriend this time, and the revenge from such a person might be hard to bear.
Just now, they knew each other so well.
Zhu Ci knew that Shen Wu would never kill anyone in front of him, and Shen Wu must also understand that he would not commit suicide no matter what. Although they were not good people, they were both sticking to their bottom lines.
But cooperating with each other in performance is a kind of tacit understanding. As the performance went on, I couldn't tell whether it was out of real worry or anger.
…
The crisis was resolved and everyone on the scene breathed a sigh of relief.
Xing Boyi looked at Zhu Ci: "Xiao Ci, you..."
“Pah.”
Zhu Ci put the gun back to its original place and said calmly, "It seems that this place is not safe. I think we don't need to abide by the agreement."
"But……"
"Isn't this the first time he has come to such a place?" Zhu Ci asked.
"indeed."
"You old monster, you still have a bad temper." Zhu Ci cursed with a cold face, turned around and left, leaving these people to clean up the mess on the spot.
…
【“Updated. That person updated again.”
“The dungeon analysis and various strategies are very detailed.”
"A top student enters a horror game."
"No, is it true that no guild will ban him in this case?"
…
After uploading the notes he had taken from watching live broadcasts these days into the game, Zhu Ci casually opened his message board.
"Are you really not going to cooperate with us?" Meng Yuanzhou asked.
Congratulations: "Yes."
"Ah, why? This is such a rare job opportunity. You are still young now and don't know how difficult it is to find a job. When you graduate and enter the society, you will find that you have no resources and can't even find a job."
Congratulations: "Yes."
"And do you think this is a shopping mall where we can come and go as we please?"
Congratulations: "Yes."
He casually opened a bottle of water and drank it. This was his former home.
After being found yesterday, he no longer thought about moving. According to the agreement between him and these people, the Investigation Bureau had breached the contract, so they just left.
Meng Yuanzhou was silent for a moment, then sent another message: "Was it your boyfriend who blew up the building tonight?"
Congratulations: "Forward."
"Ex-boyfriend? No, so which ex-boyfriend of yours is so awesome?"
Cheers: "I don't know. I suggest issuing a wanted order."
"Well, ahem... I don't think so. No one was killed or injured, and our guild suddenly received 30 million in its account, so... let's just let it go."
"Only thirty million."
Meng Yuanzhou said, "Look at your savings before you speak."
Zhu Ci didn't have that much money in the bank, but he wasn't going to starve to death for the time being, so he said nothing more and jumped directly to the next message.
Mo Anan and Mo Yangbing were more concerned about his current situation, so Zhu Ci replied.
If your friend request limit is full, just reject it.
But there were several emails in the mailbox from different guilds.
I clicked on the congratulatory speeches one by one and found that most of them were olive branches extended by major guilds.
It seems that his performance in the previous game satisfied some people.
Among these many letters, two stood out.
"Challenge letter. Player Joseph challenges player Zhuci. Challenger ranking. Overall ranking is eighteenth."
When Zhu Ci first saw the letter, he had no intention of accepting it, but when he saw the bet, he finally became interested.
The other party's bet is the eighteenth ranking in the entire game, and an S-level item.
Of course this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that he asked Zhuci to give him the Shenyin Sword if he lost.
The points that can be obtained by ranking eighteenth in the entire game are of course a sky-high number, and S-level props are hard to come by, but these cannot stop Zhu Ci's desire to transfer the Shenyin Sword in his hand.
He wanted to know whether such a challenge could change the owner of the sword, and how Joseph would react when he saw that this sword that players were so eager to get had such useless properties.
So Zhu Ci signed the letter of challenge without hesitation. For him, this was almost a sure-win business.
However, his actions were somewhat intriguing in the eyes of other players in the game.
[“No, you’re so proud of yourself for winning just a few games that you even dare to challenge the top 18 in the server.”
"He hasn't gotten out of the novice stage yet, has he? Has the novice ranking been removed?"
"If this is the challenge instance chosen by Lord Joseph, then it's no joke. He won't die in it, will he?"
……】
This storm is someone else's business.
Zhu Ci was looking at another email thoughtfully at this moment.
This email came from the Dusk Guild and was sent to him in the name of the president.
"Dear Mr. Zhu, can you open your friend application, find a player named 'Qi Shiyu', and agree to his application? Then I will help you in the next game."
Help?
Zhu Ci thought for a moment, opened his friend's mailbox, and found that Qi Shiyu's friend request had been approved.
Qi Shiyu’s avatar is a dog. Zhu Ci has not set his own avatar yet, but he inexplicably feels that the dog looks familiar.
After doing all this, he went to the training room in the game to exercise. After all, he couldn't let his physical condition remain so weak.
…
A few hours later,
Qi Shiyu: "[hi~dog waving.jpg]"
Qi Shiyu: "Do you need help?"
Speech: "Help me fix the match, do you agree?"
Qi Shiyu: "[Dog is confused.jpg]"
