Wow, that's amazing! I thought this was an unsolvable task, but I actually managed to complete it!
Seeing this charred corpse makes me want to laugh; I always felt he was tricked and lured here by Yun Jian.
"Exactly! They tied him up, made empty promises, and the oath was made without the charred corpse's knowledge. Did the charred corpse have any choice whatsoever from beginning to end?"
[Congratulations to Yun Jian on the progress of the mission! All that's left is to bring in nineteen more charred corpses to complete it!]
Bai Yu thought so too. He was very happy and eager to go out again and catch a few more charred corpses.
Yun Jian stopped him, "Why are you going out? Aren't you tired enough these past two days?"
"Wouldn't it be easier to finish your task sooner?"
"The mission needs to be completed as soon as possible, but we don't need to go out and catch charred corpses. Isn't there a ready-made tool... a corpse?"
The charred corpse, engrossed in inhaling the gunpowder, was speechless.
I feel like you guys are plotting against me again.
Yun Jian walked over with a smile.
The charred corpse couldn't help but retreat again.
This woman's expression is the prelude to deceiving the corpse!
He said weakly, "Even if you're going to lie to me, can't you wait until I finish smoking this batch first?"
Yun nodded.
Bai Yu wanted to reach out and pat the charred corpse on the shoulder, but halfway through his hand, he suddenly remembered that the corpse was charred, so he silently withdrew his hand, only giving the corpse an approving look, "You're pretty savvy!"
The charred corpse ignored him and slapped a handful of gunpowder on his face.
Bai Yu, feeling rebuffed, turned back to Yun Jian's side and asked, "We've managed to swindle this corpse, but where should we put it?"
Players and charred corpses definitely can't live together, otherwise, big trouble will happen sooner or later.
Yun Jian thought for a moment and took out a small pebble.
The charred corpse immediately retreated.
Bai Yu chuckled, "Good heavens, weren't you engrossed in inhaling gunpowder ash? How come you reacted so quickly?"
The charred corpse glanced warily at the pebble in Yun Jian's hand. "Don't you have to keep an eye on deadly things? Are you stupid?"
Bai Yu, who was being subjected to anti-education: "..."
This stupid, charred corpse actually mocked him for being stupid?
Yun interrupted the two's bickering and said to the charred corpse, "There's nothing in here. Come here, I'll try to see if I can put you inside."
She remembered that the description of the pebble was that it could be filled with anything she wanted.
A charred corpse... I guess it can barely be considered something!
With a thought, Yun Jian saw the charred corpse disappear from the conference room.
The dull thud came from the small stones, along with the charred corpse's indistinct words, "I need to get out; I forgot to bring my gunpowder ash in!"
Bai Yu couldn't help but exclaim, "It can even hold living creatures, and even a charred corpse as big as that can fit inside without the small pebbles getting bigger."
As they were talking, Bai Yu noticed Yun Jian's gaze fall on him, and he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
He silently took two steps back. "W-what do you want to do?"
Yun Jian grinned, his smile extremely dangerous: "Let's do an experiment."
Before Bai Yu could answer, his figure vanished.
Yun Jian heard a violent clanging sound coming from another small pebble in his hand, along with Bai Yu's heart-wrenching screams: "Let me out! There's no oxygen in here, people will die!"
Yun Jian quickly released Bai Yu again.
He also released the charred corpse.
Bai Yu looked at the charred corpse: "Didn't you feel uncomfortable when you went in?"
The charred corpse shook its head: "No."
Yun Jian glanced at Bai Yu and muttered, "They don't need to breathe."
Bai Yu: "Oh."
The charred corpse looked curiously at the small stone in Yun Jian's hand, its face full of indignation. "Since you have this, why did you tie me up with a rope to come back? It made me lose face all the way here. When I meet other charred corpses, they will definitely laugh at me."
His pitiful, tearful expression made Bai Yu laugh so hard he couldn't stand up straight.
He didn't hold back in adding insult to injury, "Have you ever thought that it would be even more shameful for you to have defected to the enemy?"
Charred Corpse: "..."
He's an adult corpse now, he can't cry.
Seeing Bai Yu teasing him like a child, Yun Jian spoke up to stop him: "Alright, stop teasing him. If you mess him up, who will do our work?"
Charred Corpse: The way you're saying it hurts me even more.
Yun Jian turned her head, revealing another familiar, affected smile. "Can we talk business now?"
The charred corpse stared at Yun Jian, nodded, but secretly shoved the scattered gunpowder ash on the ground toward himself. "What do you want me to do?"
What do you think of the terms I offered?
The charred corpse thought for a moment and gave its evaluation: "Pretty good, anyway, it's quite attractive to me."
"Have you ever heard the saying, 'Share the good times and the bad times'? Such a great opportunity, why don't you share it with the other charred corpses? Are you comfortable with a charred corpse enjoying so much gunpowder all to yourself? When you're inhaling the gunpowder, don't you think about your companions who are working hard to hunt down players for that little bit of gunpowder?"
Suddenly, the charred corpse felt that the gunpowder in his hand didn't smell so good anymore.
Yun Jian continued his heavy blow, "Think about it, they've been running for most of the day, and they might not even be able to catch up with the players. They might even get electrocuted or beaten up by various equipment. But you clearly have an easier way to advance, yet you monopolize it all, ignoring their hard work. Can you still breathe this gunpowder with a clear conscience?"
The charred corpse paused for a moment, then slowly nodded.
Now, when he looks at the gunpowder ash in his hand, he recalls the times he and his companions painstakingly chased down players...
Ugh... I have no interest in inhaling at all, okay?
"As for me, I don't mind having a few more collaborators. Anyway, I have a gunpowder factory. A few more charred corpses are just a matter of my ability to support them."
Jiao Shi understood Yun Jian's meaning, opened the control panel, and cautiously asked, "Should I contact them?"
Yun nodded.
The charred corpse then sent a message to his companions: "Come quick, there's a gunpowder factory here, feel free to suck up gunpowder!"
As soon as the message was sent, the charred corpse's interface began to vibrate continuously.
Where?
"Where! Tell me the coordinates."
"Tell me your location, I'll be there soon!"
Jiao Shi replied: "They're also making explosives in the Cloud Alliance, and they taste even better than those from Tengyun Pavilion!"
However, after sending the message, he did not receive a response for half a day.
After waiting for a long time, and under Yun Jian's intense gaze, Jiao Shi sent another message asking what was wrong and why they weren't replying.
"Do you think I'm stupid? The Cloud Alliance is that great demon's territory, do you think I dare to go there?"
"You're from the Cloud Alliance, right? What did you do to Sha Bi?"
"To be honest, have you taken control of Sandy and are you impersonating him to contact us?"
"Is this your Cloud Alliance's trick? It's lousy. Do you think I'd believe that? Even if that guy Sand Nose is stupid, he's not stupid enough to send us to the Cloud Alliance!"
Upon seeing these messages, Yun Jian: "..."
Was she really that ferocious? She had actually made these charred corpses so wary.
