Chapter 48 I'm waiting for someone, what are you waiting for?
“Boom!”
There was a loud thunder outside, and huge raindrops hit the ground continuously. The sound was transmitted to the basement through a thick layer of soil, like a person trapped in a coffin banging his fists on the wooden coffin lid frantically.
Li Ziyue looked at the villagers in front of him with a cold expression, his eyelashes trembling slightly, his maple-colored lips slightly pursed, and he seemed to be in a bad mood.
Can the deadlock be solved?
It depends on where the opponent will make the next move.
Seeing that Li Ziyue and the other two did not move, the man smiled arrogantly, brought the cart out from the dark, and placed it in front of the three people. He commanded condescendingly: "Put the children in the cart."
Li Ziyue raised his eyebrows slightly, but listened to the man's words carefully.
The child had timid tears in his eyes and his little hands were pulling at the corner of his clothes.
This inexplicably familiar look made Li Ziyue's heart tremble. A long-dormant fragment of memory flashed through his mind like a rapidly swimming silver fish. He was stunned for half a second before waking up from an unspeakable sense of loss.
In his memory, someone had looked at him with such aggrieved eyes countless times.
Who is it?
Li Ziyue subconsciously moved to the side and accidentally bumped into Zhang Lian, who was not far away from him.
"Sorry." Li Ziyue suppressed his cough.
Zhang Lian looked at him with her beautiful eyebrows lowered, and then glanced at the child who was being loaded into the car and was crying sadly.
No words.
People are no longer sleepy.
In the dark, the villagers pulled out a few more carts, and the children who were still in the cubes were dragged out by their waists like vegetables planted on the ground.
The child struggled in pain, tears falling all over the floor.
Li Ziyue paid more careful attention and found that different carts contained children of different blocks.
Most of the children crammed into the car were timid and cowardly. The children in the violent block were fighting among themselves, but the villagers did nothing to discipline them.
What does this mean?
Li Ziyue calmly picked up the child, whose face had turned as bitter as a tear, patted his head, coaxed him softly, and then put him in the car.
The child was really timid and kept holding on to the corner of Li Ziyue's clothes with his little hands.
As everyone pushed the cart forward, Sun Yuancheng had a sad face and blamed himself for being too naive and believing whatever the other party said.
Perhaps we cannot say that he is naive. He always relaxes involuntarily when Li Ziyue is around him.
When people's vigilance decreases, danger comes.
What a coincidence, the wind hasn’t died down on this side yet, but it starts over there.
"jingle."
The cold reminder sound of the system issuing a task rang in Li Ziyue's mind.
[A large amount of player resentment has been detected, and a special player task is now open - 'Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it']
[Mission Difficulty: Two Stars (Anger at injustice can give people infinite courage and cruelty)]
[Task Introduction:
Is he better than you? Does he work harder than you? Is he smarter than you?
Why should you become a poor person struggling for water all your life, while he can have endless water resources without any effort?
You are poor and destitute, but you can only stretch out your hand and beg from him who is high above you.
You have done nothing wrong, but you were born poor.
He has not achieved anything, but he was born rich.
Are you hungry? Are you hateful? Are you disgusted?
Resources can belong to the strong, but why should they belong to these lucky ones who have no ability?
Now, you can get the information you want for free - you know his real-time coordinates, and you are allowed to deprive him of water resources.
Make him kneel down and beg you, just like he did to you in the beginning.]
[Task reminder: Poor and ordinary players can rob the remaining water resources of rich players, but they cannot harm each other. If necessary, they can use some so-called fair trials]
[Task description: Poor and ordinary players will get the location information of rich players. There is no such task in the rich player system. Therefore, the rich players, who account for 10% of the total number of players, know nothing about this siege planned by 90% of the players.]
[Task Reward: The remaining water resources of the rich player]
The system has been nurturing the Gu for a day and a half through tasks, players filling water props, etc., constantly intensifying the conflicts between players of different identities.
Now it’s finally time to reap the wrath of the players.
Li Ziyue glanced at Sun Yuancheng who was walking in front.
There is nothing unusual, I really didn't receive any system task notification.
At this moment, a few red flashes appeared out of nowhere in the upper left corner of his system interface.
Li Ziyue clicked on one of them, and then a series of player information popped up.
[Zhao Guangliu: male, height 175CM, weight 68KG, good at fighting, no weapons on him.
The remaining water resources are 16.23L, and the distance from you is 2.6 kilometers. Click here to view the 3D location navigation.
Currently, 8 players are chasing this person.]
There is also an intelligent recommendation below: based on your actual ability, physical condition and location information, it is recommended that you chase the following three players.
The first one to be recommended is Sun Yuancheng.
He turned off the system screen and followed behind silently.
The sound of the wheels rolling seemed particularly eerie in the dark basement. The man stopped and directed the woman to push the two carts of children to the other side.
"After the first bell rings, send the sedan chair."
The woman laughed: "I will dress them up beautifully."
Sedan?
Li Ziyue pretended to casually let his gaze fall on the two cars, secretly memorizing the appearance of those children.
They are all beautiful and introverted children.
These are the chosen brides?
There are both men and women in it. It seems that gender is not the selection criterion, but personality and appearance are.
The two cars stopped temporarily at the corner, and the man motioned for the rest of the group to follow.
After walking through the long corridor, I finally reached the end.
It was a big door that could accommodate five or six people at the same time. The man opened the door, and then a strong and pungent smell of blood hit his nose.
Li Ziyue frowned, and Sun Yuancheng was so irritated that he shed two lines of tears.
Zhang Lian took out a mask from his backpack. He didn't say anything at first, but just opened the mask package. Li Ziyue was still thinking about the whole thing when he suddenly felt a chill on his ears.
Zhang Lian looked at him seriously, put his index fingers on the tips of Li Zi's ears which were getting hotter, fixed the soft elastic band behind his ears, and looked at him carefully for two seconds. Under Li Zi's dazed gaze, he calmly helped him adjust the front ridge of his nose correctly.
"Okay." Zhang Lian was very satisfied.
Li Ziyue turned his face away, and spoke through the mask, with a layer of unclear meaning: "Next time I will do it myself."
Zhang Lian was a head taller than him, and could just see his long black eyelashes trembling abnormally, like the nervous and timid inky black butterfly wings.
His eyes softened.
Sun Yuancheng was trembling with fear on the side.
What should I do? What does Zhang Lian mean? Why is it so ambiguous? Will Zhang Lian also put on the mask for him himself later?
How should he refuse? He must first emphasize that he is a straight man, and that he must not hurt Zhang Lian's heart.
Sun Yuancheng waited with dignified dignity for Zhang Lian's hand to reach near his face.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Lian just handed the mask to him. Two seconds later, seeing that Sun Yuancheng had not taken any action, he was even ready to take the mask back.
Sun Yuancheng quickly grabbed the mask.
Li Ziyue didn't see their actions, his attention was attracted by the walls around him.
The large amount of bloody smell comes from the thick black and red blood that has accumulated on the wall over the years.
The blood was so thick that the ground beneath one's feet became sticky, and when one lifted one's shoes, several long, extremely sticky strips were left behind.
There were some objects piled randomly against the wall, and the light here was even worse, so Li Zi couldn't see clearly what they were.
However, he thought he might have guessed it.
The man grabbed the struggling child in the car.
With his other hand holding a bloody long knife, he curled the corners of his mouth and stared straight at Li Ziyue with his scarlet eyes.
"Come, kill him and cut off his head."
Li Ziyue raised his eyebrows.
In the darkness, his eyes seemed to be filled with a pool of calm and steady blue water.
His expression was unclear.
But he didn't refuse.
Sun Yuancheng subconsciously swallowed his saliva nervously, his eyes wandering and jumping in front of Li Ziyue and the man.
"Does it have to be this way?"
Li Ziyue asked softly.
The man looked at him impatiently, his voice mixed with annoyance: "Kill him if I tell you to. The decision is not in your hands now."
Li Ziyue lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then smiled.
The more Sun Yuancheng saw Li Ziyue smile, the more he felt creepy.
Amitabha.
He clasped his hands together inwardly.
Brother Li smiled, the life and death of the person on the other side was unpredictable.
At the same time, a pop-up window popped up.
[It is detected that you have deviated from the normal mission branch, and the mission is now reversed for you]
ah?
Sun Yuancheng was puzzled.
What does it mean to reverse the task?
The [Judge's Sword] mission interface suddenly changed.
The previous introduction content remained unchanged, but the final requirements and rewards took a 180-degree turn.
[Quest requirements: Find the child, [Kill] the child (0/1)]
[Mission Reward: 20,000 points (Is cruelty a crime? Perhaps you just want to survive. Fighting for survival is not a crime.)]
Sun Yuancheng was so shocked that he was speechless.
Li Ziyue explained on the side.
"Three-star missions are yin-yang missions. The star rating is just a label for the mission category, not the difficulty."
"The Yin-Yang mission will change the mission requirements according to the scene the player is in and the dialogue with the NPC," Li Ziyue kneaded his swollen temples and closed his eyes slightly, "I can't seem to refuse to kill the child. After all, the reward is very rich."
The man chuckled sarcastically.
I thought the player in front of me was different from the others, but he was also a greedy person who sacrificed his humanity for points.
"But," Li Ziyue spoke again. He looked at the players who had been dead in the corner for a long time and found a dark mark on their necks. "Since the mission can be reversed, why did they die? Can they really resist the temptation of points and not kill people?"
"But there's a strong smell of blood here. They must have helped you kill someone, right?"
He pulled off his mask, and his nose was instantly assaulted by the unpleasant smell of rust.
The man's patience seemed to have reached its limit. He spat on the ground, and the veins on his arm holding the big knife bulged: "Why are you asking so many questions? They just didn't listen. This is the result of not listening!"
"All disobedient?"
Li Ziyue seemed to want to get to the bottom of the matter.
The man became more and more angry. He moved his feet slightly and lifted the sword, hanging in the air.
Blood dripping.
However, just as he was about to swing the machete at Li Ziyue, he heard a loud explosion outside.
Immediately afterwards, a large amount of turbid rain water rushed down the breach. It seemed that many people were walking on it, and the crowd was boiling for a while.
The man's movements suddenly tensed.
Li Ziyue curled the corners of his lips lazily.
“Is it fun to chat?”
He slowly closed his dark eyes and listened to the sound of people running quickly in the corridor behind him.
Li Ziyue raised an eyebrow and smiled at the man: "I'm waiting for someone, what are you waiting for?"
Then.
"Bang!"
The door was kicked open, and the person who came in was——
