Sinner's Well.
Bai Liu crossed his legs and crossed his arms, sitting on the tall corpse of the monster as if he were sitting on a throne. He smiled and tilted his head to look at Bai Liu below: "In order to welcome your arrival, I have specially cleaned the inside of the Sinner Well."
"Of course judging by your expression, you don't seem to like it here very much."
"Oh, by the way, you had the same expression when you first saw me in Building 5." Bai Liu tilted his head slightly, and his smile became friendly. "Of course, your expression is much more revealing now--"
"Are you, hating me?"
"By the way, as God, I never tell lies. Do you remember the friendly reminder I gave you when we were in the fifth building?"
Bai Liu curled his right hand to his chin, lowered his eyes and chuckled: "I say, the first person to die will be Mu Sicheng."
The moment he finished speaking, Bai Liu suddenly felt a burning sensation inside the gloves he was wearing. His fingertips were burned, his expression froze, and he instantly turned the gloves into a wallet.
The wallet was opened, and Bai Liu saw that the soul banknote with Mu Sicheng's image printed on it was burning rapidly and then turned into ashes.
Bai Liuwei froze in the posture of opening his wallet.
The ashes fell to the ground along the cracks in the old wallet.
"Bai Liu, do you know what you look like now?" Bai Liu's eyelids drooped indifferently, with a faint smile on the corners of his mouth, "You look like a homeless man who lost an insignificant coin and knelt on the ground looking for it for a long time."
"——A poor homeless man who only has a few usable coins. He doesn't want to keep them in his wallet, so he keeps every one of them shining."
"But no matter how well you take care of them, coins are just coins. They are only worth so much. They won't increase in value just because you don't want to spend them. Instead, they will just take up space in your wallet."
"They're not worth keeping in your wallet. Get out of the way and give up these burdens."
"You can put more valuable banknotes in your wallet."
Bai Liu suddenly swung his hand to the right, slinging out a white bone whip. His emotionless mask finally completely collapsed, revealing his vicious inner self: "Don't tell me that they are worthless paper money!!"
"They are human beings, they are souls!!"
The white bone whip was swung over fiercely, lifting up all the monsters. Bai Liu jumped down from the high monster mountain. He smiled and pulled out the black bone whip, aiming at Bai Liu and swung it down.
"It's a human being, it's a soul, so what?"
Bai Liu's smile became softer: "It's just a toy of God."
"Existence or destruction is but a thought and a word from God."
The black whip hit the white bone whip, and the unabated force directly pushed Bai Liu, who was swinging the whip, out and hit the bottom of the well. Bai Liu was shaken so much that his whole body was scattered, and the sound of bones breaking could be heard.
Bai Liu rolled up the whip with one hand, folded it, and walked slowly towards Bai Liu who was lying on the ground, saying with a smile: "——Just like now."
"I said, it will be Mu Ke who will die."
“—then he will really die.”
On the spaceship.
Everyone was stunned. Cen Mingming looked at the place where Mu Sicheng fell. His expression was frozen, as if he had not expected things to go this way. Liu Jiayi and Tang Erda were completely frozen in place. They saw the whole process of Mu Sicheng's soul shattering from a close distance. It was simply...
I can't accept this fact.
Everything is out of control.
Mu Ke's eyes swept to the place where Mu Sicheng had fallen before. His mind was in turmoil and confusion, but when he raised his eyes and saw Bai Liu's still sleeping face, his mind was cleared and only one thought remained -
——He wants Bai Liu to leave this game alive.
Thus, emotions were suspended, and thoughts began to work again under an almost cruel command.
Cen Mingming has already used his Sinner Well skill once, and the next CD is in thirty minutes. There is no threat for the time being, but Xiao Chou is obviously out of control. His skill CD is fifteen minutes, and during these fifteen minutes he can continue to attack Bai Liu and the others with normal attacks.
Mu Ke gathered his thoughts and thought calmly - as an assassin, he had to kill the opponent who posed the greatest threat to the team.
——Just like Bai Liu’s usual orders.
[System prompt: Player Mu Ke uses skill (flash attack)]
Mu Ke raised his dagger and prepared to flash. He thought his expression at the moment would be calm, cruel, and even ferocious. But if there was a mirror, he would find that his expression at the moment was like the surface of a lake without any waves, very calm and steady.
——Just like Bai Liu’s usual expression.
[I'm here, just leave it to me. ]
Bai Liu is always like this. With Bai Liu around, they don't have to worry about anything. They just need to rush in clumsily and recklessly, and grow rapidly in the most dangerous game. As long as Mu Ke turns around, he can see Bai Liu standing not far behind them, guarding them with calm eyes.
——He is a guy who is about the same age as him, but he always looks so reassuring.
Mu Ke is a person who is very afraid of death. Since he entered the game, he has been most afraid of death. In order to avoid death, he can kneel in front of the small TV and beg others to save him. Three months ago, he would never have thought that he would become a solo assassin and be willing to be used as a bargaining chip by the opponent again and again, exchanging death for the greatest benefit of the team.
He hated that, as a heart patient with only twenty years to live, he hated that others would share and use his life, which was his most precious thing.
But Bai Liu can.
Because Bai Liu would never really let him die.
So he was really willing to die for Bai Liu.
Mu Ke stepped into the flash, just like he did before, without looking back and without looking back.
The next second, Mu Ke stepped out from the flash and appeared behind Daniel. His eyes were extremely cold and the dagger in his hand flashed with sharp light. Daniel was unable to react in time and was stabbed in the throat by the dagger dropped by Mu Ke. Blood gushed out immediately, staining his ugly little mask red.
"It's you?!" When Daniel found out that the person behind him was Mu Ke, his face suddenly darkened, becoming twisted and angry, "Mu Ke?!"
——His most hated competitor!
An incompetent coward who covets the meaning bestowed by the Godfather! He cannot live without the Godfather!
Mu Ke's attack was so fierce that it was breathtaking. Daniel was caught off guard and was soon covered in wounds, but he soon went crazy. Daniel showed a weird smile that was no different from the one on his ugly mask. He retracted the sniper rifle in his hand and aimed at Mu Ke again.
"I reserved this bullet for you. It was given to me by the Godfather." Daniel smiled slyly. "It will be your honor to die from this bullet. Die when you deserve to die."
The sniper rifle in Daniel's hand suddenly emitted a silver-blue light. At the same time, the outer ring of the glove on Bai Liu's hand, who was protected by Tang Er and moving downward, suddenly lit up with the same light.
Liu Jiayi turned her head to look at the outer ring of the glove, her pupils constricted - this was the outer ring on Bai Liu's gloves that was refined from the slag in the furnace when they went to Hua Gan to refine weapons. They tried many methods but failed to remove it. This outer ring was the core part of Daniel's soul sniper rifle. Mu Sicheng even sarcastically said that Xiao Chou was some kind of god-level bootlicker and there was no way to remove it no matter what.
——Just like Bai Liu, clinging to Bai Liu's soul tightly.
Liu Jiayi suddenly raised her head and looked at Mu Ke who was fighting with Daniel in front of her. The moment she called out in her childish voice, she cried out: "Run! Mu Ke!!"
Tang Erda, who was covering Liu Jiayi's retreat, quickly realized something. He drew his gun, aimed at Mu Ke's back, and shot.
——As long as he clears Mu Ke out before Daniel, Mu Ke’s soul will not be shattered!
[System prompt: Heretic Xiao Chou approaches Desire Core player Bai Liu, and receives stimulation, and his skills change - (Soul Crushing Spear) The skill can be reset once, without cooling down.]
Green light gathered at the muzzle of the gun again, and silver-white rose bullets flew towards Mu Ke's head in the air. Daniel caught a glimpse of these silver bullets flying over one after another with his peripheral vision, and he did a crazy move that no one expected. He still let Mu Ke's dagger pierce his heart, but he turned around and stood in front of Mu Ke, blocking the bullets shot by Tang Er for Mu Ke, and then laughed crazily with blood all over his mouth, and pointed the gun at Mu Ke's heart——
——shoot out.
“Die!!”
Mu Ke's eyes, which had been calm until now, were empty for a moment, then widened, and sparks quickly spread across his heart.
"You actually want to kill me!" Daniel laughed uncontrollably and got furious at the same time. The two intense emotions collided on his face, making him look particularly crazy. "You are just a dead burden. You are not worthy of competing with me for the position beside the Godfather!"
It was not enough for him to fire one shot. He just wanted to massacre Mu Ke by aiming the sniper rifle at his limbs while he was lying on the ground, shooting wildly. Mu Ke's body was jumping up and down and bouncing on the ground.
"Die, die, die!"
Tang Erda's eyes were red as blood. He wanted to step forward to stop it. This was what had happened to Su Yang before. But when he got closer, he saw Mu Ke lying on the ground, turning his head with great effort. His expression was still very pale, his pupils had already shrunk, and he mouthed to him word by word:
【Take him away.】
【Leave me alone.】
Tang Er stopped moving forward. He paused for only two seconds, turned around, carried Bai Liu in one hand and the crying Jiayi in the other, and walked down. Veins all over his body were bulging.
Mu Ke has Daniel's memory! He guessed that Daniel's skills might be reset!
He did it on purpose!
When he saw Tang Erda and Bai Liu walking into the elevator and the elevator door slowly closed, Mu Ke finally completely relaxed the last bit of nerves that he had tried hard to tense. His hand that was clenching the dagger suddenly loosened, and was then stepped on and crushed by Daniel, but he no longer felt anything.
Mu Ke stared at the top of the spaceship absentmindedly, his thoughts drifting far away.
…I’ve only lived until now, but apart from not winning the championship with Bai Liu, I don’t seem to have any regrets.
He used to be so afraid of death, but at this moment, his heart was surprisingly calm. He remembered the first time he saw Bai Liu. Because he asked Bai Liu to step down, Bai Liu's dark eyes looked at him with disgust, but she still stretched out her hand and said to him: "This is the second time you see me, but it seems you don't remember me."
"But it doesn't matter, we are in a new relationship now."
Mu Ke held Bai Liu's hand tightly at that time just to live a little longer. He was a coward who would give up everything to survive. So before he met Bai Liu, his motto was always - [If I could start over again, I would definitely not be a heart patient, I would definitely not do this and that.]
He hates everything in his world and always tries to start over again because he doesn't want to die and thinks starting over can avoid death.
But now that death has really come, Mu Ke thought vaguely -
——If he had to do it all over again, he would also have a heart attack, would enter the game because of the heart attack, would cry loudly in the game because of fear, and then when Bai Liu passed by, he would catch his sight with his desire to survive, and when Bai Liu reached out his hand to him, he would follow him again, and then say to him——
——I knew I was about to get the short life I feared most.
But I am no longer afraid.
I will become an assassin and bravely protect you until the last moment.
Please, accept my cowardly soul, okay?
[System prompt: Player Mu Ke's soul is shattered, death is confirmed, exit the game. ]
