————————————————————

Those blurred memories, the weird, unclear joints, the location and appearance of the submerged pond where he buried his head and could never remember, and the strange name that was changed by only one word...

At this moment, as the water receded, Tang Erda's roar finally emerged completely from Bai Liu's memory that was buried in the mud at the bottom of the water.

The dizzying white light in front of Bai Liu's eyes swirled and dissipated, turning into a metal ceiling. He felt as if he was pulled out from the bottom of a cold, unfathomable lake. His fingers trembled slightly, his chest heaved violently, and he kept coughing and sobbing, trying to cough out the water that had poured into his throat and lungs.

Tang Erda was still pressing him: "Bai Liu, do you remember?"

Bai Liu turned over, supported himself with one hand on the ground, and stood up shakily against the wall. He was still coughing as he stood up. When he finally recovered, he even had the leisure to adjust the buttons of his shirt and buttoned up the collar that had been torn apart by the water.

Bai Liu slowly raised his head and looked at the communicator through which Tang Er was talking to him.

"I remember now." Bai Liu asked casually while buttoning his shirt, "So what? Xie Ta is dead, so aren't we two making a deal now?"

Tang Erda stood there, gritting his teeth and keeping quiet.

This guy... has been subjected to psychological pressure three times, but his mentality has not been affected at all. It is more difficult to deal with than Bai Liu in other timelines...

And did this guy really remember?!

"Of course I can give you the solution to the rose leaf gas." Bai Liu raised his head and spoke about something he knew nothing about as if he already knew it clearly.

Bai Liu started to talk nonsense with a very sincere expression, "But you have to exchange something too."

Tang Erda had a subtle, undefined premonition.

Then Bai Liu narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Didn't I tell you before, if you sell your soul to me, I will give you a solution, Captain Tang."

Tang Erda pushed the draining time on the working board to [240 seconds] without any expression on his face.

The team members beside him looked at him anxiously: "Captain Tang, four minutes of submergence is too long. What if he is just an ordinary person and drowns here——"

"I take full responsibility." Tang Erda glanced at the team member indifferently, and the team member shut his mouth in fear.

Lu Yizhan, who was held back by two team members, struggled hard and shouted, "You haven't investigated the whole story at all! You can't torture Bai Liu like this! He is innocent!"

Tang Er waved his hand without even turning his head: "Take him to another room and lock him up. Don't let him come over and interrupt us again."

Lu Yizhan was taken away.

Tang Erda stared at the screen and picked up the communicator again: "Bai Liu, I'll give you one last chance. What is the solution for the rose stem gas?"

Bai Liu also smiled and looked at him: "I'm going to say this for the last time, Captain Tang. If you trade with me now, I will give you a soul price that satisfies you."

Tang Erda took a deep breath to control his anger that was about to explode the communicator. He suppressed his anger and forced himself to calm down before continuing to persuade Bai Liu: "You know what, Bai Liu, I never understood why you were so obsessed with bringing these horrible heretical things into the real world. Is there any benefit for you to turn the real world into a horror game?"

"You also live in this world, a world full of monsters. Can you live well?"

"A world full of horror games and stories." Bai Liu raised his head with a strange smile on his face. "That's why we meet again, isn't it?"

"I've always felt that our previous world is more terrifying than a world full of monsters." Bai Liu opened his eyelids, and there seemed to be a spiraling broken universe in his black eyes, sucking in all the light.

Bai Liu shrugged his shoulders and said in a casual and teasing tone with a bit of a lazy smile: "Maybe I like monsters more than people. I don't think they are scary."

"Although this is not the first time I think you are sick, every time I interact with you, my understanding of you being crazy will deepen." The communicator in Tang Er's hand creaked. He clenched his teeth and pressed the button without hesitation. "I hope you can give me the same answer in four minutes."

The door behind Bai Liu [1807] opened again, and water rushed out.

Meanwhile, at the other end of the base.

Liu Jiayi stood in the diminishing water for a long time without moving.

Even Mu Ke, who was a little patient, started to urge her anxiously: "Is there no water flow yet?"

Liu Jiayi shook her head: "The direction of the water flow is wrong. It is draining water instead of discharging it. The direction of the water flow is to the drainage outlets on all sides. Bai Liu should be near the outlet."

"You didn't feel it?! Mu Sicheng has urged him hundreds of times. He was so anxious that he wanted to turn into a fish. "Damn, if only I had something that could sense the direction of the water flow!"

But in reality, there is only one person who has the ability to catch fish, Liu Jiayi.

"If this method doesn't work, let's try the plan with the previous coordinates?" Mu Ke asked Liu Jiayi with a frown.

Before he finished speaking, Liu Jiayi, who had been keeping her head down, suddenly raised her head and looked straight ahead: "The water is flowing again, in this direction!"

After Liu Jiayi finished speaking, she dived into the water. She swam very fast, her bare feet swam rapidly, her hands pressed against her sides, and she twitched rapidly under the water. Only a long fish-like afterimage could be seen.

Liu Jiayi turned and sprinted upstream in the surging water outside the channel.

She heard the sound of someone floating in the water, opening his mouth as if he was about to suffocate, and the sound of foam rolling and floating upward.

At every corner and entrance, there would usually be a patrolman guarding there. Liu Jiayi would tap the corner lightly, and like an extremely nimble fish, she would close her eyes and smoothly spin and dive under the arms of those who wanted to catch her, and then jump out of the water.

"A patrolman." Liu Jiayi said softly with her eyes closed.

After saying this, Liu Jiayi turned over again and dived into the water smoothly, creating only a shallow splash.

As the patrolman was about to use the communicator to report the strange intruder, in the case of full water, surveillance would be interfered with. The surveillance of the base mainly depends on the patrols and reports of these patrolmen.

But just as the patrolman raised the communicator, two other men in patrolman uniforms rushed out from the corner. Before the patrolman could react, they quickly strangled him, leaving the patrolman wearing a breathing mask unconscious and floating in the water.

The panting Mu Ke and the waving Mu Si Cheng looked at each other and said, "Let's go!"

————————————

"It's been more than three minutes..." The team members looked at Bai Liu in fear, who was suspended on his back with his limbs spread out and his eyelids closed in the surveillance video. "He hasn't breathed in almost ten seconds. Captain Tang, should we continue?!"

Countless small bubbles floated up from Bai Liu's eyelashes and merged into his floating hair. His face was pale and his lips were slightly open. He looked like a drowned corpse.

Tang Er frowned and said nothing - he had done the same thing to Bai Liu in other timelines. Those guys could endure this suffocation cycle ten times until their lungs were filled with water, and Bai Liu could still smile at him evilly, explaining the solution to Rose's dry leaves while smiling with black and trembling lips. He was a true lunatic and a monster.

Even though Tang Erda finally succeeded in getting what he wanted from Bai Liu through such means, he did not feel the joy of a winner at all. He only felt tired and exhausted.

But the Bai Liu in this timeline is too weird in every sense...

"Three minutes and thirty seconds!" The team member who had been staring at the surveillance screen looked at Tang Erda in panic, "Captain Tang! Drain the water!"

Tang Erda stared at the motionless Bai Liu on the screen, and finally waved his hand: "Drain it."

The team member breathed a sigh of relief and pressed the drain button, but the entire base suddenly shook violently. The team member panicked and grabbed the control panel to steady himself: "What's going on?! What happened?!"

"Report --!!!" Someone ran over from another monitoring room breathlessly, with visible fear on his face, "Captain Tang, all the heretics detained in the base have suddenly started rioting! And we just found three intruders!"

"What does heretic riot mean?" The team member sitting next to Tang Erda was a little dumbfounded.

Although he had been in this strange base to contain these messy and strange heretics, they had never seen these heretics riot.

Because Tang Erda, who came back from another timeline, was very familiar with these heretics, he always dealt with everything before anything happened.

But now, Tang Er looked at these panicked players in a daze, not knowing what to do and just running around. He subconsciously stepped back.

Until just now, he suddenly discovered a very fatal point————

————That’s because he has already dealt with all the heretics, and these team members who originally had rich experience in dealing with heretics have not even really seen the dangerous side of heretics.

Simply put, these team members simply did not have the ability to deal with the heretic riots, including the members of his third team that Tang Er led to the championship that year. None of them had this ability.

These people have been spoiled by him. They were even introduced to the concept of "human-shaped heretics" tonight. They were still skeptical about Tang Erda, but he actually started to capture living people and called them heretics. They only reluctantly did not speak because of the majesty of his captain. However, the expressions on their faces showed that they did not agree with him and were even afraid of Tang Erda.

They thought that Tang Erda had gone mad because he had come into contact with too many heretics, and his mind and spirit were not normal. He might have drunk himself stupidly.

Su Yang also thinks so.

Originally, members of their industry would easily go crazy due to close contact with heretics. Tang Erda's extreme methods of dealing with many heretics in advance had already made many people in the base repulse Tang Erda. They looked at him with strange and repulsive eyes, with disgust and a little bit of imperceptible fear.

It's like looking at a [human heretic].

He went from being the captain Tang Erdai, who was loved and trusted by everyone, to being the drunkard Tang Erda, who was avoided and suspected by everyone.

The remaining team members trembled:

"Why are the heretics rioting?! Have you found out the reason?!"

"I don't know. All the heretics have started to riot. Some are banging on doors, some have disappeared from surveillance, and all the heretics are in an unstable state to an unknown degree."

Tang Er placed his hands on the monitoring panel, staring at Bai Liu's lifeless face as the waterline dropped and was about to emerge from the water.

The heretic riot problem must be caused by this person! ——Tang Erda was absolutely sure of this.

Bai Liu's shirt was floating smoothly in the water, not sticking to his body. A pendant slowly floated out from his neck - it was a glittering, silver coin.

There was a strange ripple effect to the water around the coin, as if the coin was vibrating in response to something.

The moment he saw the coin, Tang Erda suddenly realized something. He reached into his pocket with his face suddenly becoming extremely dark.

———The inverted cross pendant in his pocket that he had snatched from Bai Liu was extremely hot.

Just now, Bai Liu had been talking to him to stall for time, and he was using coins to look for the sign of the cross on his body! He was deliberately provoking him to keep him drowned for a long time!

This lunatic!!!

Tang Er's teeth were almost broken after being bitten.

The only believer of the evil god prayed devoutly and summoned the evil god, so the evil god controlled its polluted heretics to save its dying believers————so these heretics rioted!!

Tang Erda quickly locked the drain button on the control panel and prepared to stop the drainage without hesitation. However, the moment he was about to press it, the whole base shook violently again. He was shaken to the ground. Only one team member grabbed the joystick on the control panel and was not thrown away.

The water line on the monitoring screen was still dropping and had already reached the top of Bai Liu's head.

Tang Erda shouted at the team member holding the joystick at the top of his lungs: "Close the drain! Don't let him get out of the water!!"

The team member was still not able to react: "What?!"

It's too late.

Bai Liu, who had been floating motionlessly in the water on the screen, opened his eyes, and the reverse cross in Tang Er's pocket made a buzzing sound.

After a loud clicking sound, all the team members in the monitoring room stared at the monitoring screen in amazement. After a deafening sound of metal doors opening and closing, the doors of all the rooms where heretics were imprisoned in the entire base were opened.

The monitoring room fell into near-silence for a few seconds, and everyone's expressions were blank.

They stared at the surveillance screen with wide eyes.

As the water level dropped, Bai Liu went from being suspended in the air to standing steadily on the floor of the corridor. Water was dripping from his hair on both sides, his breathing was still a little uneven, and he leaned weakly against the wall of the corridor, but he smiled.

Bai Liu looked up at the screen with a pale face and smiled: "So, are you willing to consider a deal with me now, Captain Tang?"

A second later, all the monitoring turned into snow screen.
