Eri Stina, a player from Europe, stared coldly at the messages posted on the forum.
"Those damned Chinese."
"They've gotten ahead of us again by quite a bit. We missed the four-hour exchange window, causing us European countries to suffer heavy losses in this auction!"
"Damn scum of the Chinese nation."
Eri Stina's expression was grim as he looked at the gold coin exchange rate in his line of sight—a terrifying 1:113 yuan ratio... Some people on the forum had exchanged Turin World gold coins at a rate of 1:20, while others had exchanged them at a rate of 1:50.
But why not redeem it now?
Will the exchange rate decrease afterward?
He wasn't sure if the price would drop, but in any case, they felt they had lost the initiative; the players from the Dragon Kingdom had redeemed their rewards four hours in advance and taken all the benefits, leaving them with a mess.
Eli Steiner made a call and asked:
Has the assassination begun?
"My lord, preparations are underway."
"Hurry up, the Dragon Kingdom has gained more and more advantages, we must suppress their arrogance, that player named Su Yue must die."
"yes."
——————————
In the darkness of night, a tanker truck drove down the winding, lush mountain road.
The road signs and traffic lights line the winding highway.
It was set against the backdrop of a company man wearing a work hat and uniform.
He had a cigarette dangling from his mouth.
Sparks burned inside the half-open car window, the smell of smoke mingling with the burning engine oil and the turning of the steering wheel, pushing downwards continuously.
"We will take good care of your wife and children. It's just that one person was killed in the accident."
"..."
The driver recalled the scene of the other party mysteriously telling him this, and his expression showed a moment of fear, but after the fear, what remained was a sense of calm.
He didn't think he had done anything wrong.
They even believe they are righteous.
For my wife and children.
He believed that sacrificing his own life was worthwhile for the wives and children of immigrants in Europe to have a better life. This was not a matter of right or wrong, but simply a man's instinct.
"..."
He threw the cigarette butt out the window, something he would never have done under normal circumstances, but things were different now. He had changed.
Even wildfires couldn't stop him.
A fire ignited a patch of withered, decaying leaves at the foot of the mountain, fueled by the sound of a tire rubbing and a cigarette butt rolling off.
The decaying leaves had long since dehydrated, and many fleshy worms clung to the extremely dry leaves.
These decaying leaves caught fire easily, creating a small fire at night.
"You're insane!! This is a mountain! How could you just throw a cigarette butt and start a fire like that? Do you know what will happen if the forest rangers find out...?"
The truck driver smiled at the curses beside him, feeling a pang of regret that the fire hadn't been started before it was stopped.
The number of checkpoints below is increasing...
"!!"
"Stop immediately and undergo inspection."
Lights came on in the distance, and military and police units had set up checkpoints here, preventing him from going down the mountain.
Didn't these guys already plan out the entire murder route?
Didn't they already claim to be fully prepared?
The driver's expression was complicated.
He had no choice but to stop and cooperate with the inspection. Fortunately, there were no problems with his identity or qualifications, and the goods he was transporting were also under contract.
"Let them through."
The driver vaguely sensed that security in Turin had become even tighter. Could it be because of that man named Su Yue?
Is it really because of him that a city was placed under martial law?
Doesn't that mean the authorities value him highly?
Doesn't that mean that he assassinated the other party to accomplish something big?
The driver was overjoyed. Looking into the distance, the city's enormous, phantom-like shape resembled a beast crouching in the night, its arms and claws reaching towards the sky.
Some tall buildings seem to be proclaiming their will to the sky.
Some factories were still emitting smoke.
In some cities, the lights were not completely off yet, but in any case, the darkness made the city seem a little quieter.
By the dim light of the fire, the driver opened the forum messages.
"The Dragon Kingdom of Turin is leading the world again."
"The fact that the exchange time was set four hours in advance led to a frenzy for Turin World gold coins, causing their price to remain high."
"Players from the US and Japan must be furious. China has gained the upper hand again, and their lords will likely be dealt a heavy blow by China in future national wars."
The driver listened to the Turin World radio broadcast, thinking about the scenes of the previous revival.
Keep an eye on the target's location.
The walkie-talkie crackled with cold European language, and he replied in the same language, as if his blood had frozen solid.
A strong moral conscience was condemning him, but he couldn't refuse to murder the other person.
How can his children and wife survive in Europe?
So, only an apology silently echoed in my heart.
“You are not the first person to assassinate him. There will be others to cooperate with you. You are just one link in the plan of hundreds of people to assassinate Su Yue. Don’t think too highly of yourself.”
This feeling of complicity largely offset the fear and unease he felt from murdering a Chinese person. Yes, there were hundreds of other people doing this with me. I shouldn't feel guilty or remorseful, right?
The driver pondered this scene.
He sat happily at the dining table with his children and wife. The children played and frolicked joyfully, while his wife gently carried the food and called out to him, "Husband!"
The driver, on the other hand, looked tired.
The air in the city wasn't as fresh as it was at the foot of the mountains. The driver took a deep breath, composed himself, and blinked. The location of the target appeared ahead of the truck.
The red dot clearly shows the enemy's location.
This moment.
The driver's pupils contracted violently. High beams and a horn blared. He feigned brake failure, but in reality, his right foot was firmly planted on the accelerator, frantically propelling the truck forward with tremendous momentum, sending it hurtling towards the wall like a locomotive!
"Su Yue, watch out!!"
"husband!!"
At night, Su Yue, who was having a late-night snack, was surrounded by Elisa and Nancy when a truck suddenly burst into flames and its wheels, which were already sparking from the impact, crashed into their location due to the violent acceleration.
If the footage were captured on surveillance cameras, the truck's acceleration and impact would likely leave little time for anyone to react; it would happen in an extremely short period of time.
The large truck swept towards Su Yue in the distance with the speed of a whirlwind.
A glint of madness and cruelty, along with a gentle light reserved for his family, flickered in the driver's pupils.
The colorful night sky, like spots, dotted his face.
He looked frantic, his right hand frantically pressing the horn and siren, drool dripping from his mouth, seemingly unaware of what he was saying!
"Aaaaaah!"
The driver opened his mouth wide and roared.
This moment.
He will run over and kill the other person.
Then I too will turn into mincemeat.
At crucial moments, a person's words and actions seem to be in slow motion, and the driver looked into the distance with a puzzled expression.
He was somewhat taken aback and surprised.
Just as the car was about to crash into Su Yue and that beautiful, perfect woman outside.
Black roses fluttered everywhere, thorny iron stakes stretched out, and fleshy branches grew from the ground!
The massive truck, carrying hundreds of tons of force, tore apart the first tree branch...
The second, the third, and countless vine-like branches.
It seemed like a thorny zoo, thwarting the truck driver's assassination plot.
The vehicle, carrying its momentum and countless pieces of flesh and blood dragged along the ground, rolled over towards Su Yue. The blinding headlights magnified in Su Yue's eyes, but he merely smiled and said, "Is that all?"
"The auction house's affairs had nothing to do with me, yet they're trying to assassinate me as revenge?"
Nancy asked in alarm, "Su Yue, are you alright?"
Su Yue said, "It's nothing."
Nancy stared in shock as the truck came to a stop. The sheer speed and the sudden halt were a dangerous sensation that most people couldn't comprehend.
But Nancy knew what kind of power it would take to stop such a vehicle.
"..."
"..."
Elisa was also startled, but her first reaction wasn't to worry about herself; instead, she asked, "Honey? How are you?"
Su Yue said, "The European region launched an attack on us." Before he could finish speaking, a red dot appeared on Elie's neck. The martial law in Turin was terrifying, but even so, the shadow of a sniper rifle could still be seen on the high ground of the hotel in the distance.
Presidents of major U.S. countries are often assassinated.
Su Yue didn't think he was much more noble than the president. At least he was an ordinary person, someone who needed to exist in the real world, and therefore had weaknesses.
He needs to eat and drink, needs to move, and needs to be present when the outside world changes locations.
It is inevitable that a murderer will seize upon a weakness and launch an attack; this is a normal and reasonable situation.
"Bang!!"
The sniper rifle trigger was pulled, carrying the damp, cold smell of the night. The sniper's first bullet missed, followed by the second.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"
One bullet after another pierced Su Yue's ears, arms, shoulders, and forearms, but in the sniper's view through the scope, he was shocked by the supernatural scene before him.
He couldn't comprehend the situation at all.
His act of sniping the other party was perfectly normal.
The truck was suddenly intercepted by a mysterious force, which is not normal.
As he fired, the bullets seemed to hit some kind of ripple-like air wall. The bullets, accelerated by their enormous potential and kinetic energy, were actually blocked by ripples in the air.
This was something he found completely incomprehensible.
"Why????"
"How could it have turned out like this?"
"The bullet was blocked by an invisible force field shield?"
Undeterred, he continued firing bullets, seven or eight of them hovering in front of Su Yue's eyes, creating a terrifying scene.
