Meanwhile, the other players around looked astonished, clearly frightened by Xiao Jin's actions.
But then they heard Xiao Jin's question.
Everyone's smart enough to understand what was going on when they saw the player's furtive expression.
This person must have done something behind their backs!
Xiao Jin slowly approached the other party, grasped the hilt of the Broken Shadow's sword, and then slowly twisted the long sword.
"Ah!! No~ I'll talk, I'll talk."
The player was terrified. He was usually timid and afraid of pain, and Xiao Jin had a notorious reputation, so he didn't even have the thought of resisting.
He was panting heavily: "They've all gone down to the lower levels!"
Upon hearing this, Jian Yiqiu was the first to change his expression. He abruptly stood up and ran downstairs.
Xiao Jin's expression was extremely cold, and he looked at the player as if he were looking at a dead person.
Considering what he said earlier, Xiao Jinruo had no idea what his companion was doing downstairs, so she might as well be stupid and die.
These people were planning to steal the charcoal brazier below.
"You deserve to die." After Xiao Jin finished speaking, the player on the other side seemed to realize something and shook his head in fear.
"No, you can't..."
Xiao Jin didn't give him a chance to speak. She suddenly pulled out the knife, blood splattering, and then the tip of the knife pointed upwards.
"Pfft, uh..."
The next second, a red line appeared on the player's neck, and he fell to the ground, his eyes bulging out, his expression one of disbelief until his death.
He didn't understand why Xiao Jin was speaking up for a few NPCs.
"Hiss~"
One of the players watching from the sidelines gasped, looking at Xiao Jin as if he were a god of death.
They just... just killed him like that!
When they came to their senses, Xiao Jin had already disappeared, seemingly having gone to chase after Jian Yiqiu.
On the ground, Gao Ya's expression was somewhat complicated, and there seemed to be a hint of worry in her eyes.
But her gaze swept over the corpse beside her without any expression, seemingly showing considerable disdain. "Pah, petty thief, better dead."
More than killing, Gao Ya was worried about Xiao Jin's mental state. Was she being too concerned about the NPCs?
Xiao Jin moved extremely quickly and found Jian Yiqiu, who wanted to go to the fourth underground floor, first. Players are not so easy to deal with; if he ran into them like that, he would be courting death.
"Calm down, I'll go in first." Xiao Jin reached out and grabbed Jian Yiqiu, pulling him behind her while carefully sensing the movement behind the door.
Sure enough, there wasn't much noise behind the door. But Xiao Jin heard soft sobbing and heavy breathing.
Although the person behind the door tried their best to control themselves, the fear still overflowed.
Inside the door.
The already crowded place now had a small but clear space where the other residents were all crammed together, leaving the entrance area empty.
Because not only was the area sealed off, but there was also a pile of corpses on the ground.
Looking up, the room looked as if it had been ravaged by a storm; everything was in disarray. Many people lay sprawled on the open ground, surrounded by bloodstains.
When Xiao Jin and the other person broke through the blocked door and entered, this was the scene they saw, and Jian Yiqiu's eyes instantly turned red.
He ran to the people lying down and reached out to check each one, only to find that they were already dead, the knife marks on their chests being the evidence.
"Brother Jane?"
Just then, a faint shout came from behind.
Xiao Jin strode over and turned over a figure in the corner. Seeing that the person was still alive, he quickly took out a red pill and put it into the person's mouth.
At this moment, Jian Yiqiu arrived. He took the person from Xiao Jin's hands, and after recognizing who it was, he hurriedly asked, "Lin Xu, how are you? Where are the others?"
Lin Xu struggled to open his eyes, and seemed to breathe a sigh of relief when he saw Jian Yiqiu.
“Brother Jian…someone…came to steal supplies, they killed…killed people and then went down.”
"Is the person still down there?" Xiao Jin asked, though she was already certain in her heart.
The outer barrier hasn't been removed, so even if they wanted to go out, they couldn't.
Xiao Jin took out some medical bandages and spray and tossed them to Jian Yiqiu: "You stay here, I'll take care of the rest."
Jian Yiqiu wanted to go down, but he was very worried about Cheng Ce and Shao Jing. However, seeing Lin Xu unconscious, he was indeed unable to leave.
"Don't worry, he just took his medicine and is just drowsy right now. He'll be fine, but it might not be the same if other people were left here."
Seeing his hesitation, Xiao Jin continued.
As expected, Jian Yiqiu was speechless upon hearing this: "Thank you!" He stared intently at Xiao Jin.
"No need." Xiao Jin turned and left, putting out a few more charcoal braziers before she left.
The charcoal braziers on this floor had all been taken away by those players, and the room was unusually cold; some people's lips had even turned blue.
………………
Seemingly afraid of attracting attention from above, these players who sneaked down were very careful and moved very quietly.
If Xiao Jin hadn't been paying attention to the players around him from the start, he wouldn't have noticed that a few of them were missing.
The fifth basement level is basically the same as the fourth.
Xiao Jin found someone who was relatively calm, left the medicine and everything else there, and then continued walking.
The lowest level, inside the door.
The indigenous people who had been hiding on this floor were now forced into their rooms, and many people were also squatting in the living room outside.
Besides these, the most eye-catching are Cheng Ce and Shao Jing in the center.
Three menacing-looking players stood in the living room, weapons in hand. Cheng Ce lay on the floor beside them, his face pale and his eyes tightly shut.
To his left, Shao Jing knelt on the ground, his face bruised and blood soaking through his hair, looking extremely disheveled.
Hehe~
The next second, one of the players raised his fist and punched Shao Jing hard in the face. With the sound of flesh hitting flesh, the man fell to the ground again.
The people around trembled and remained silent, their heads bowed low, because the one who had made the first cry was already dead.
Shao Jing lay on the ground, then someone grabbed his hair and lifted him up, blood sliding down his forehead to his jaw.
This is when you can see his stubbornness; even after being beaten until his teeth fell out, he was still cursing.
"You...son of a bitch, I am...your...father..."
Hey, do you want to die?!
The player who was being insulted felt a surge of anger and threw several more punches, yelling as he hit him, "You piece of trash, that's all you've got. You even dared to talk back to me before."
"You really think that just because someone's connections you can wield power like an arrow? You're not worthy!"
The more the player thought about it, the angrier they became.
When he was managing the shelter before, this effeminate idiot dared to order him around doing this and that.
If it weren't for his close relationship with those big shots, I would have definitely made him understand why the flowers are so red.
