Tang Er raised his fist and smashed it hard at Bai Liu's face. Bai Liu turned away, coughing up blood. His fist grazed his face and left a crack on the ground.

Bai Liu wanted to try some tactics and tricks with the captain, but the opponent's panel suppression was too terrifying. Under Tang Erda's close combat, he couldn't move at all. He didn't even have time to open the system panel - Tang Erda's movements were too fast.

Even though this man's brain wasn't feeling normal anymore, his body's reflexes were top-notch. As soon as Bai Liu tried to resist, as long as a muscle involved in the action moved, he wouldn't even have time to move before Tang Erda would quickly remove the pressure from his bones.

Bai Liu deeply felt the saying "force can defeat skill" from Tang Erda.

Experience, technique, ability, skill, speed, the limits of all the criteria used to evaluate a player were now vividly displayed on Tang Erda.

Although it was just a feeling, Bai Liu vaguely felt that Tang Er's panel value might have exceeded 50,000 at this moment.

This was not a fight of the same level at all. No opponent Bai Liu had met before could give him such a feeling. Tang Erda was so crazy and extremely strong that he left no room for Bai Liu to display his strength.

He was indeed suppressed. When Tang Erda hadn't even fired his gun once, Bai Liu rarely found himself at a loss.

If Tang Er hadn't gone mad and wanted to torture Bai Liu, Bai Liu felt from the bottom of his heart that the grass over his grave would have been two meters high by now - it would have been too easy for Tang Er to kill him.

——This situation could perhaps be considered some kind of bad luck, but for Bai Liu, if you only looked at the results, this could also be some kind of good luck.

Bai Liu no longer looks like Liu Jiayi.

After he met Tang Erda with red eyes, he quickly canceled the effect of the skill card of Ace of Hearts - fighting with Tang Er, using the appearance of an eight-year-old girl was not a wise choice, not to mention that this skill card would consume a certain amount of his physical strength.

So now Bai Liu was struggling with Tang Er with his body, or was being beaten unilaterally. Blood splashed between the two of them. Bai Liu looked at Tang Er's twisted and brutal face, and his breathing gradually weakened.

——Then he suddenly smiled at an inappropriate moment.

[System warning: Player's health points have fallen below 3! ]

But it's not completely without any chance of beating this guy.

Tang Erda is now like an S-level monster. While he has become extremely powerful due to his madness, his weaknesses are completely exposed to Bai Liu.

It's just a one-time gamble. If he loses, Tang Er might drive this guy completely crazy, and then he'll be really dead.

But if you win,

Bai Liu looked at Tang Erda who was throwing a high fist - now!

Bai Liu, who had been relaxing and not resisting, caused Tang Erda's muscle inertia. The moment the opponent's fist landed, Bai Liu opened his eyes and dodged fluently to the side, completely unlike his previous weak look of allowing the opponent to attack him.

The brief one-second gap in attack created by Bai Liu was enough for him to quickly open the system panel.

[System prompt: Does the player Bai Liu want to use the skill poker card (Ace of Hearts) again? ]

【Sure.】

A poker card with the Ace of Hearts appeared out of thin air in Bai Liu's hand. After Tang Erda approached, the heart in the center of the card began to spin rapidly. The person in the center of the heart gradually changed from Liu Jiayi to——

Tang Er raised his fist and took a big step forward, quickly approaching the back of Bai Liu's head and roared hoarsely: "Bai Liu——"

Bai Liu turned around slowly, and the protective suit on his body gradually turned into the uniform of the Heretic Management Bureau. His dark eyes became clear and transparent, his stature grew half a head taller, he wore snow-white gloves on his hands, and his hair changed from short and messy to semi-long hair that reached his neck.

He turned around with his eyes curled up, and the corners of his mouth were bloody. He seemed not to mind Tang Erda who was about to attack him. Instead, he said in a hoarse and gentle voice: "Captain."

——Exactly the same as Su Yang in Tang Erda’s earliest memory.

Tang Erda's fist stopped at the tip of Bai Liu's nose, and the wind from the fist blew away the blood-stained hair on both sides of Bai Liu's face.

Bai Liu's face was covered with scars from Tang Erda's attack, and these scars superimposed on Su Yang's gentle face gave off a strangely incongruous yet appropriate feeling.

Tang Erda's fist was clenched and trembling in front of Bai Liu's face. His pupils trembled as he looked at Su Yang's face, which was so familiar to him.

——This is the first world Su Yang, this is the very beginning Su Yang, this is——

——The real pain hidden deep in his heart.

——He is the only one who will never come back, Su Yang, whose soul has been destroyed.

"How dare you appear in front of me with his face!!!" Tang Erda's eyes were bloodshot, and he looked at Bai Liu with a creepy look. It was as if a gun grew out of his clenched fist in the blink of an eye. He ruthlessly pressed it against Bai Liu's forehead and then shot without hesitation.

"Bang--!!"

Su Yang was hit directly through the body, and slowly fell to the ground, motionless - he did not change back into Bai Liu's appearance, but still looked like Su Yang, staring at his captain with eyes that had not yet come to his senses, and died just like that.

No matter what skills or items one has, they cannot last after death. If Su Yang is still like this after death...

Tang Erda realized something. He sluggishly let go of the gun in his hand and knelt weakly in front of Su Yang's body.

——This is not Bai Liu transformed into Su Yang, this is Su Yang.

Bai Liu's voice came from nowhere, lazily, as annoying as ever: "Captain Tang, the person you just shot, as you can see, was not me who turned into Su Yang, but the Su Yang that you feared the most in your heart - look up and see what's in front of and behind you."

Tang Erda looked like a cassette tape, and raised his head with empty eyes.

At the end of the corridor in front of him was an extremely large mirror, which reflected another mirror at the other end of the corridor.

Two mirrors are placed at one end and the other end of the corridor, facing each other and reflecting each other. Each mirror will reflect a new mirror, and the new mirror in the mirror will continue to reflect the mirror. The mirror continuously refracts and reflects between the two mirrors, forming a corridor composed of endless mirrors.

Tang Erda recognized this mirror - it was the specially protected [Murphy's Theorem Magic Mirror] in the Heretic Management Bureau.

——This is a special heresy, which is very difficult to shatter and can remain intact in explosions. When you look directly into this mirror, the longer you look at it, the more things you don't want to see will be seen in this mirror and born.

Bai Liu had just taken advantage of Tang Er's inattention to place the two mirrors at the front and back of the corridor, forming a mirrorless corridor - in fact, he originally only had one mirror, which was a reward from the monster book of "The Last Train to Explosion", and the other one was picked up when he was imprisoned in the Dangerous Heresy Bureau and caused a riot.

However, without the protection and interference of the evil god, Bai Liu cannot bring the mirror of the real world into the system and use it in the game.

His reverse cross is still where Tang Erda is. Normally, Bai Liu has no way to bring the other mirror into the game, but he used a different method to bring the mirror in, in order to create this mirror corridor to trap Tang Erda.

——For a hunter with a deep mental illness, there is no better prison than his most feared past.

Various problems began to appear in the mirror. They crawled out of the mirror with a smile, approached Tang Erda and called him softly.

"Captain..."

"Captain, look at this heretic..."

"Captain! Wanna have a drink after get off work? Team Two's treat!"

"Captain, do you prefer a son or a daughter?"

It was such a relaxed, warm and happy daily life, and they were all smiling, old friends whom he had not seen for a long time, but Tang Er was so frightened that every finger was shaking. He looked at this dreamlike memory fragment cast by a low-level person, staggering back while holding on to the wall, shaking his head with a blank expression:

"don't want--!"

"Don't go on like this--!!"

Unfortunately, he had no way to retreat, as Su Yang also walked out of the mirror behind Tang Erda.

Su Yanghe patted Tang Erda's shoulder with an excited smile. Tang Erda turned his head away almost frozen. Su Yang said to him with a smile: "Captain, as long as we win this final, we will have defeated Bai Liu, and everything will be over-"

Before his brain could react, Tang Er subconsciously covered Su Yang's temple. He screamed in pain as if something had shattered his bones: "Stop talking! I don't want to win against him!"

"——I want you to survive!!!"

A bullet shot from nowhere strangely passed through Tang Erda's palm that was covering Su Yang's temple, and shot into Su Yang's head with incredible accuracy, making a crisp "pop" sound. Su Yang's eyes were empty and powerless, and the smile on his face had not yet faded, but he had already fallen backwards.

Blood oozed continuously from the gaps between Tang Erda's fingers as he covered Su Yang's temple.

"Captain, Captain..." The intermittent voice made the dazed Tang Er turn his head again.

Su Yang, who had just turned around and asked Tang Erda with a smile whether he preferred a son or a daughter, now had his limbs twisted at a strange angle, as if something invisible was stepping on him, grabbing his hair and forcing him to raise his head and look at Tang Erda.

Half of Su Yang's face was covered in blood and flesh, and his uniform was dirty and tattered, but he had a determined smile on his face:

"Captain... we must save the contaminated person..."

"Bang--!"

A bullet went straight through his head from the back to his forehead. Before Su Yang could even finish his words, he fell to the ground with blood all over the floor.

Su Yang, who had asked him if he wanted to drink with the Second Detachment after get off work, was kidnapped by Bai Liu as soon as he got off work. Now he was curled up on the ground, as if something invisible was constantly twisting every bone of his. He could no longer scream, and could only tremble with a pale face every time he was tortured.

Something was clamped on Su Yang's jaw, and a piece of tape created out of thin air was being stuffed into Su Yang's dying mouth.

"No --!!!" Tang Er knelt down in front of Su Yang in despair, trying his best to get out the tape that was stuffed into Su Yang's stomach. "Don't force him to eat this! He's in pain! He's really in pain!"

The tape was covered in mucus, and Tang Erda couldn't hold it steady no matter how hard he tried. Finally, with bloodshot eyes, he bit the tape tightly, knelt on the ground and pulled it, trying to swallow it himself.

Tears rolled down his blue eyes.

The non-existent person who stuffed the tape in seemed to have discovered that Su Yang's mouth was too small to fit the tape in, so he easily moved it down, forcibly removing Su Yang's lower jaw, and forcing him to swallow the angular tape.

Tang Erda was unable to stop it no matter what he did. He could only watch Su Yang swallowing, shaking and trembling on the ground while holding his stomach. Then he gradually stopped breathing, and his mouth was full of dark blood.

—Exactly as he was when he was dissected.

Tang Er knelt on the spot as if his soul had left his body, his hands falling limply to the ground, as if he had died along with Su Yang.

Murphy's magic mirror, a mirror that can reflect the most feared scenes in everyone's heart. Now, this mirror is replaying the death process of Su Yang in every timeline in front of Tang Erda.

Every frame and every scene in front of Tang Erda's eyes, the daily life that once made him feel so happy, all happened before Su Yang's death. He had recalled it countless times, so when he saw Su Yang's smiling face before his death, he couldn't help but start to get scared.

No matter how many times he tried, no matter how long he ran at full speed, up to now, he had not been able to save Su Yang from Bai Liu even once.

He could only watch Su Yang being tortured to death in various ways time and again, and accept Bai Liu's unhurried teachings and questions -

[It is true that I will not feel pain because of other people’s pain, but you see, if I do something casually, the one who suffers more is definitely you, the good person with empathy, rather than me, the bad person.]

In the tape, he asked Tang Erda in a leisurely manner with a smile: "So Captain Tang, now that it has come to this, can you still tell me what it means to be a good person?"

Tang Er stood up staggeringly. The real death of Su Yang in front of him and the hallucinations in his consciousness overlapped. He seemed to be answering Bai Liu's words across time and space, and seemed to be talking to himself:

"Being a good person is indeed a thankless task, and it is meaningless."

"But I don't want to be a bad person, a wicked person. Even if I really want to die, even if it's just an illusion... as long as I'm alive, I will save him!"

Tang Erda gritted his teeth, took out his gun, and pointed it at his head: "Because I'm his captain!!"

"Stop all this, Bai Liu!" Tang Erda's eyes were precisely fixed on Su Yang, one of the Su Yangs who was behaving strangely, and he pulled the trigger without hesitation.

The Su Yang in front slowly turned his head, his eyes were dark black - it was indeed Bai Liu!

[System prompt: Player Tang Er's spirit value is broken, and the panel explodes! ]

[System prompt: Player Tang Er has activated the explosive skill (Russian turntable - suicide bullet)]

[Target: A personification of the player Bai Liu]

[System prompt: The wheel starts spinning, gambling is about to begin... Gambling fails, suicide bullet takes effect——]

The bullet pierced through Tang Erda's head with a loud bang. Blood burst out from half of Tang Erda's face, which still maintained a stunned expression. He fell to the ground with the other Su Yang, dying and unable to move, lying in a pool of blood.

In a trance, Tang Erda saw the "Su Yang" he had seen before, who suddenly turned into Liu Jiayi.

"How did he run away..." Tang Erda lay face up with his eyelids drooping, but a relieved smile finally appeared on his face, "Forget it, he always has a way to win the game."

Tang Erda's eyes gradually closed: "I finally lost the bet, I can leave now..."

"Hey, wake up." Liu Jiayi half-knelt in front of Tang Erda speechlessly.

Just now, Bai Liu activated the telepathy and teleported her here directly. Before she could figure out the situation, she saw this big fool shoot herself. She was so scared that she thought the past was going to happen again, so she quickly drank the antidote.

As a result, this big fool shot himself to death. Liu Jiayi was stunned. Did Bai Liu trick the opponent? !

——Can it be given like this?!

Just when Liu Jiayi was wondering whether to save Tang Er who was lying on the ground and about to die, the mirror disappeared at some point and the corridor outside the door suddenly opened.

Bai Liu walked in leisurely from outside. He seemed to have anticipated the situation inside. When he saw Tang Er lying on the ground, he just glanced at him indifferently and turned to look at Liu Jiayi: "Save him first."

While Liu Jiayi was injecting the antidote into Tang Er's mouth, she looked at Bai Liu in disbelief: "How did you make him like this?"

Tang Er is at least an S-level player with an absurdly high panel value. The monsters in this game can't do anything to him. It can be said that the only one who can defeat him in this game is himself.

Then Bai Liu actually succeeded in tricking Tang Erda into shooting him—and he shot him with his panel exploded, completely penetrating Tang Erda's defense and leaving him with only a layer of blood and skin.

Now this guy is only alive. If Liu Jiayi had arrived a step later, he would have been dead.

"Oh, that's right. I studied his skill, Russian Roulette." Bai Liu explained methodically, "It's a skill that relies on luck. Whoever has a higher luck value will not be hit, so he should be able to beat me every time. Just now, at the critical moment, I changed the image stored in the Ace of Hearts to your appearance, and then used the Ace of Spades to activate the telekinesis, which teleported you over here."

"Now it's your turn to gamble your luck with him. I thought that no matter how much luckier you are than me, your chances of winning should be greater than mine." Bai Liu looked at Liu Jiayi innocently, "It looks like you really won the gamble."

Liu Jiayi: “…”

Liu Jiayi took a deep breath and said, "Bai Liu, your father's sakj (*&@* is such a scumbag!"
