Chapter 454: Broken Wheel of Destiny
The casual words caused the scene to fall into deathly silence again.
The Collector, who had been smiling evilly since he changed his body, suddenly couldn't laugh anymore.
This doesn't make sense.
Xu Yan's expression changed and he looked a little confused.
After hearing the malicious words, Xu Zhiyan not only did not feel unhappy, but seized the opportunity to turn the tables and turned his suppression and humiliation into tangible benefits...
No, that's not right.
In the subsequent development imagined by the collector, the handsome young man standing opposite should have sneered at his words, but was torn because the woman in the sarcophagus was the relative of an important teammate. In the end, he could only choose to bow his head and endure the humiliation, or curse at him in resentment and unwillingness.
In short, no matter what, the other party should not agree to this condition easily!
“…”
He opened his mouth, but was speechless and didn't know what to say.
Even if he can bend and stretch, isn't this too much? The dialogue without any resistance makes him look like a clown...
As if worried that the collector would go back on his word, Xu Zhiyan closed his eyes with a slightly sad expression.
Perhaps he was thinking of something painful. Just a few seconds later, when he opened his eyes again, a crystal tear was already hanging in the corner of his eye.
Xu Zhiyan didn't wipe the tear off his face, letting it hang in the corner of his eye, his expression extremely sad.
Just as the others came to their senses, especially Jiang Huaique who looked remorseful, Xu Zhiyan pursed his lips, sighed, and spoke in a low voice.
"Alas, I don't know if I can make back the money I spent on this investment."
Whenever he thought of Shiva's consumption, he felt so heartbroken that he almost fainted, let alone shed a few tears.
"Just the amount of attacks Shiva launched would take at least two or three months for the safe house to make up for it by plundering the players' wallets."
As he said this, Xu Zhiyan turned around and looked at Jiang Huaique, whose face was still filled with shock. He reached out and patted the other's shoulder, then pointed at the corner of his eye and said, "Xiao Jiang, Dad sacrificed his dignity for you this time, and I'll give you another 200 pairs of woolen slippers later."
Jiang Huaique couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth when he heard this.
If it had been any other day and he had seen Xu Zhiyan being naughty for no reason, he would have definitely hit him a few times, but today his heart was beating fast, like he was on a roller coaster.
It is still uncertain whether the person in the sarcophagus is his sister, but he acknowledges Zhiyan's feelings.
After a while, Jiang Huaique turned his head away and spoke in a low voice.
"Thanks."
He can now be sure that no matter what the outcome is, meeting Xu Zhiyan is the luckiest thing in his life.
The audience in the live broadcast room had a similar experience to Jiang Huaique, especially when they saw the silent and embarrassed collector, everyone felt inexplicably happy.
[Okay, okay, collector, you have come to this day! 】
[We little millionaires are flexible and resilient. With just a few tears, we not only earned face and a sister, but also earned two hundred pairs of slippers. Hahaha]
【What’s wrong with you upstairs? Haha. 】
[Damn, I haven’t laughed like this in a long time. I laughed so hard today.]
[As expected of a small millionaire, just thinking about Shiva's consumption makes me feel sad enough to cry. ]
【When I think about the fact that this money is earned from everyone's pockets, I feel very involved. 】
[6. Financial support, right?]
【Today we are all shareholders! 】
Xu Zhiyan fulfilled his promise of crying in a second. As if he was afraid that the collector couldn't see it, he pulled his eyelids and waited for the tears to slowly slide down. Then he turned his head hurriedly and pointed to the other party.
"Is that enough? Do you want some more?" The words were full of sarcasm and meanness.
Seeing Xu Yan's gloomy face, he couldn't help but add: "Isn't it enough to watch this? Do you want me to add some resistance lines for you?"
He counted on his fingers.
"How about this, what style of resistance dialogue do you want to hear? First, deposit 80 million points into my account and I'll demonstrate it to you."
What he said was so frivolous and exaggerated that even Dou Hongshan, who had a tense expression on his face, almost laughed out loud.
She had never seen a mimic get humiliated.
The young man, with tears still on his face, spread his hands and raised the corners of his mouth.
"Whether it's tears or begging for mercy, as long as your offer is sincere enough, you can buy it from me."
His tone was sincere, but the collector's expression became increasingly ugly.
Although I had taken out new cards, I was put at a disadvantage because of the opponent's shamelessness and good attitude.
Xu Yan never thought that he was the embarrassed person.
However, Xu Zhiyan did not intend to reveal it easily.
"Speaking of which, shouldn't you settle the account for this tear first?" He pointed to the sky screen with the guessing panel above his head and said, "The players are all watching. Utopia is not the kind of guild that goes back on its word. You don't want to be a dog, do you?"
“…”
The Collector had a gloomy face and said nothing.
However, after saying this, Xu Zhiyan did not make any more sarcastic remarks, but pressed his palm on his chest through his clothes.
From the moment he provoked the collector, the horn possessed by the ghost consciousness began to heat up. After a few words, it became scorching hot and uncomfortable.
Xu Zhiyan lowered his hands and restrained his expression.
He knew that the ghosts and gods were reminding him not to lose control.
The childhood memories related to Xu Yan are filled with pain. He can use words and actions to provoke and humiliate the other party, but he must never let the anger of the past cloud his mind.
He told himself to stay calm at all times.
When he looked up again, Xu Zhiyan's expression towards the collector was less sarcastic and his tone was much more normal.
"Okay, the fooling around time is over."
He stroked his chin and his eyes fell on the sarcophagus.
If Jiang Huaique's sister is really still alive, then angering the collector before getting the coffin is not a good option.
"Hand over the sarcophagus and the people inside to us and the deal will be over." He slowed down his tone.
Unlike humans who grow with time, ten years did not change Xu Yan's personality. He is still the Xu Yan that Xu Zhiyan knows.
He likes to put on airs and always looks superior.
Xu Yan might ignore his promise to Xiao Zhiyan, but his arrogance and contempt for humans prevent him from losing face in front of so many people... especially his fellow mimics.
With some room to relax, the Collector's expression was still very ugly, but it was not as ugly as before.
He raised his hand slightly, and the sarcophagus opened.
"Come and get it yourself."
Xu Yan's cold voice flashed by.
The man who spent money to change his fate looked suddenly serious when he saw the color of his exposed wrist change.
The other party used his ability!
After the attack just now, they can already guess the opponent's skills by the changes in skin color.
Sure enough, the next second Xu Yan's figure left the original place and appeared behind Xu Zhiyan and others.
His target is still Yu Xiu!
"Bang!"
The close combat made a harsh sound.
This time he was prepared, and Jiang Huai Que easily blocked the attack in the first moment, and the blade of the Shadow of Death ignited with a faint red flame.
The pure white cane in Xu Yan's hand made a clanging sound and trembled slightly.
"Oh? Aren't you going to see your sister?"
He was somewhat surprised by Jiang Huaique's indifference.
As the executor of the task, Xu Yan had of course checked the relationship between the two, so when the sarcophagus appeared, he naturally thought that Jiang Huaique would shift his focus to his sister.
Jiang Huaique turned his wrist and swung his free hand towards the collector's face.
"Why attack Yu Xiu?"
He lowered his voice and swung his fist past the man's cheek.
The Collector leaned back to avoid the attack, as if he had heard something funny. He finally got over the embarrassment and his eyes were filled with mockery again.
"Because I want to make both you and Xu Zhiyan into my collection."
He said it as if it was a reasonable thing to do.
"As long as you kill the holder of the token, you lose. I don't really want a tattered collection, so I will try not to damage your outer shell." The collector said easily.
That's why he chose to use a less offensive weapon and just hit around with his cane instead.
The pupils of the Jianghuai partridge shrank slightly.
What happened? How did the other party know that they put the token on Yu Xiu?
Although he was shocked, Jiang Huaique did not show it. He pushed hard on his feet to jump into the air, leaped in front of the retreating Xu Yan, turned around and swung his sword. In an instant, the red flame burned as fiercely as if it had life!
Xu Yan frowned and dodged the attack.
But the burning sensation from the flames just now made him look at the human in front of him again.
It seems that it is really difficult to have an intact body...
The two of them sped up their movements at the same time.
Xu Yan did not attack, but kept looking for opportunities to kill Yu Xiu, switching between Jiang Huaique's siege and defense.
On the other side, Xu Zhiyan and Dou Hongshan had already arrived near the sarcophagus.
Looking back at the two people who were fighting, he hurriedly said to Dou Hongshan: "Quick! Close the coffin!"
Dou Hongshan, who was about to rescue someone, was stunned, and even the vines that grew out from under his feet were suspended in mid-air.
"Close...close?"
Wait, shouldn’t we get the person out first and then find a way to rescue him?
"Nonsense! Of course it's closed!"
"Whether she's dead or alive, she's been made into a puppet by Xu Yan. If she's released now, she'll only attack us. Of course, we have to seal her up first and then fight her!"
Xu Zhi spoke quickly, holding the opened coffin lid with a serious expression.
He looked at the fingers slowly extending from the edge of the coffin, and suddenly met the eyes of the woman in the coffin...
Just as he thought.
Although the woman in the coffin had her eyes open, there was no normal consciousness in her eyes, they were extremely chaotic. There were many suture-like scars on her body, and even the skin on her two arms that were exposed did not look similar, more like the product of acquired sutures.
The Collector is not obsessed with completeness. He is keen on stitching together the power, so it is not surprising that Jiang Huaique's sister was made into a puppet of some kind.
Based on Xu Zhiyan's understanding of Xu Yan, didn't the other party prepare this just to watch the Jiang siblings kill each other?
Upon hearing this, Dou Hongshan did not hesitate and immediately controlled the vines to roll up the coffin lid and pressed down on the already open coffin.
However, the woman in the coffin had already sat up.
Xu Zhiyan moved his wrist, and in the blink of an eye, a metal exoskeleton appeared on his left hand, extending from his fingertips to his shoulders.
Sister Jiang had just sat up straight when the hand wearing the new exoskeleton prop fell on her forehead.
"I'm sorry, sis! Remember to treat me to a meal when we get out!"
As he spoke, Xu Zhiyan used the strength granted by the exoskeleton to push Sister Jiang, who had sat up, down again. The force was so great that the other person's skull made a slight creaking sound, and it was unknown whether there was any fracture.
"Bang--"
The heavy sarcophagus lid closed.
With the cooperation of the two, Jiang Huaique's sister was sealed in the sarcophagus again.
Dou Hongshan was worried that the sarcophagus would be taken back, so she grew layers of vines from the ground and wrapped the sarcophagus tightly. After hesitating for a moment, as if she was afraid of being snatched away, she simply controlled the vine ball and kept it with her to ensure that nothing would go wrong.
Xu Zhiyan gave a thumbs up in the direction of Jiang Huaique and spoke loudly.
"Jiang Jiang, I've got your sister."
"Don't worry, just focus on killing that guy!"
Without Shiva, Jiang Huai Que is his strongest fighting force without spending any money, and he must not have any worries.
