Chapter 44 No Survivors
In the tense atmosphere, the Holy Father looked at the puppeteer warily. Even though he wanted to kill the other party, he had to suppress the murderous intent in his heart.
He is not strong enough to fight against the Puppeteer yet.
Even if you risk your life, you can't hurt the puppeteer at all.
"Huh? When did my people become yours, Mr. Puppet Master?" The Puppet Master looked at Yi Li, who was sitting on the ground in a mess. "Yili, tell him, who do you belong to?"
The puppeteer's gaze also fell on her, with a faint smile and gentleness like water in his eyes that made her shiver.
"In that case, Miss Yili, tell him who you choose. If you choose him, I will send you to the underworld so that you can be together forever."
The puppeteer raised his eyebrows casually, spoke in a low voice with a long drawl, and his posture was casual, as if he was talking about a very insignificant matter.
I'll go.
What is this doing.
Isn't this a naked threat?
Can I say I am my own?
Do you really want to choose?
Yili swallowed, her heart skipping a beat. She moved back and leaned against the wall: "Don't do that. It will give me the illusion that I'm very popular."
"Don't be afraid, I will protect you and won't make you a puppet by him. You have to think carefully. If you choose him, you will be made into a puppet without self-awareness." The Holy Father pretended to be calm, smiled calmly, and said lightly to Yili.
Yi Li: "I choose..."
Before she could finish her words, sticky tentacles in the dark dragged her into the wall.
Disappeared unexpectedly.
Yili felt like he was being swallowed into the abyss, stumbling all the way down and almost falling to death.
Bang!
She hit the soft cushions.
"I'm telling you, could you be a little gentler?"
Yi Li's voice was silent and dry, hiding a deep sense of speechlessness.
"Then I'll take you back now."
It was Executive Officer Basta who came out of the shadows.
Basta looked at Yili, who was lying on the mat and slowly standing up: "Where is the thing I asked you to bring?"
Yili looked at Basta and said, "You said you wouldn't take it away."
Besides, her space was sealed by the system, and the wishing stone was still inside, so she couldn't get it out even if she wanted to.
"I, Basta, naturally disdain those little things. Now that I have them, I won't say anything. This time, I snatched you from them as a reward for passing my assessment."
Then I really thank you.
"How did you solve the puzzle I gave you?" Basta looked at Yili with interest.
"Because you took my heart." Yi Li thought of her empty heart. She could feel that she had no heart, but she could still live to this day.
If this happened in the real world, it would be something I wouldn't even dare to think about.
But since this weird and scary game exists, it is normal for anything to go beyond human nature and happen weird and scary.
"As expected, the gradient was right. You are indeed very smart. If you want your heart back, find the remaining half of the wishing stone and exchange it."
"Or use it and grow another heart. But no matter how good the replacement is, it won't be as good as the original."
Upon hearing this, Yi Li touched his empty heart and asked, "Why me?"
"Want to know? Why not ask yourself."
Basta looked at her and said, "I wish you survival, examiner Yili. By the way, here is a weapon that is very suitable for you. I wish you good luck in obtaining it."
Basta disappeared in front of Yili.
This was their second meeting. Yi Li felt the trembling from the depths of his soul at this moment, telling himself that this person could kill him at any time.
Even now it seems that he has been helping himself except for taking his own heart.
There is no such thing as a free lunch.
She didn't want to be led away by him, but she was still influenced by him.
Instead of killing herself, Basta helped her, just like a farmer raising lambs.
I want to fatten her up and then kill her and eat her.
"Warning! Warning! Game core fragments are lost! A large amount of data has been corrupted! This game will be closed for containment in one hour! This upgrade assessment is closed. One person will qualify for the upgrade, and the remaining surviving players will be awarded a few points. The list will be closed after the game."
"Players, please prepare yourselves! Players, please prepare yourselves!"
The system prompt sounded in my mind.
But this was not told to her alone, but to all players.
What are core fragments?
What is massive data loss?
Could it be the wishing stone and half of the boss's body that she got?
It can’t be such a coincidence, right?
Yili originally wanted to find a place to hide and wait until the game was over.
But Basta's words just now couldn't help but ring in his mind.
'Here is a weapon that would be perfect for you. Good luck getting it.'
It has to be said that this sentence really touched the weak Yi Li.
She was tired of being manipulated.
Yi Li pushed open the door and walked out.
Her steps were a cruise map.
She picked it up and saw the locations of the captain's and first officer's lounges clearly marked on it.
Fang Xin?
Yili heard that familiar name.
Could it be that place?
Yili believed in his intuition. Since he was curious, he might as well go and take a look.
She followed the map and went all the way to the captain's lounge on the second floor.
A lot of monsters came in here.
With their broken limbs piled at her feet, she used the last power given to her by the Holy Father.
"Ding! The ability to make your wish come true was used successfully (2/3), success rate 80/100."
Yili became a monster like them, dragging his ugly form, and quickly followed some monsters to the vice-captain's office.
There is only one hour left.
When she was halfway through her run, she found the second-in-command, whose eyes were bloodshot, and whose anti-aircraft suit was torn, with large areas of skin exposed to the air. In his hands, he was holding the head of the first-in-command, Dan Yan, which had been torn to pieces by a monster.
"No! That's not it! Don't! Liar! You liar!"
"I'm going to kill the Puppet Master! I'm going to kill him! He's the one who killed the Boss! It's him!"
Don't know what happened to them.
Dan Yan was left with only his head.
He closed his eyes and was held in Shi Jin's arms.
Shi Jin didn't care that his body was being rapidly eroded by nuclear radiation and rapidly mutated.
He hugged Shan Yan, crying and laughing: "Liar, you liar. Shan Yan, do you think I will thank you if you saved me? Fool, you idiot!"
His tears fell drop by drop.
The blow suffered by the arrogant and domineering Shi Jin almost destroyed all his sanity.
"Save Shi Jin."
A familiar voice sounded in Yili's ears.
"Please, save him."
Yi Li was stunned. This was not an auditory hallucination.
It is the sound of a single word.
"Please save him, and I will give you all my points and props. Please, you must save him."
