"Let me go! What are you doing!?"
Huairen roared at the top of his lungs, twisting his body desperately to break free from Xie Qi's grip on the back of his collar. However, Xie Qi remained unmoved, dragging Huairen step by step towards the cage with an expressionless face.
"What am I doing? Don't you know?" Xie Qi said with a sneer, without reducing the strength in his hands at all.
Huairen: "I'm not an NPC! You can't do this to me!"
Xie Qi: "I don't care if you're an NPC or not. This is a personal grudge between you and me. You must be eliminated today. No room for negotiation!"
Although Huai Ren struggled with all his might to stand up, Xie Qi's strength was too great and his resistance seemed futile.
When the others around saw this, no one stepped forward to stop him. Because everyone knew in their hearts that Huairen had indeed gone too far this time.
If we have to choose someone who might be an NPC, Huairen is undoubtedly the most suspicious.
At this moment, the system's cold voice sounded: "NPC identification is completed. Identification error. Player eliminated. Game continues."
Next, the game levels come one after another, each one more difficult than the last. As the difficulty level climbs, the challenges faced in each level not only put tremendous pressure on the players' bodies, but also bring endless torture on the mental level.
The danger is so high that it's enough to make anyone tremble with fear and panic. The hidden grudges and hatreds between players gradually surface.
At this point, they have lost their minds and are no longer just targeting NPCs, but are also involving personal grudges.
Anyone who has an enemy with him, even if there is only a slight grudge between them, may be blinded by personal resentment and thrown into the iron cage without mercy.
Xie Qi stood aside, watching all this with an indifferent expression, and no longer intervened.
Because of the second level, Xie Qi made up his mind not to lend a helping hand to anyone easily. Now, he only had one thought in his mind: to protect Li Ze.
Therefore, even during the crucial NPC identification process, Xie Qi just watched coldly and did not intervene at all.
Just like that, the emotionless mechanical voice echoed in the players' ears again and again:
"The third level of the game is about to begin..."
"Congratulations to player 1724 for their victory..."
"NPC identification error, player eliminated, game continues..."
"The fourth level of the game is about to begin..."
"Congratulations to the 924th player for their victory..."
"NPC identification error, player eliminated..."
"The fifth level of the game..."
"Congratulations to 523 players..."
…
"Congratulations to the 89th place..."
"NPC identification error..."
"NPC identification error..."
"……mistake……"
Until only nine players remain.
"Who is the Murderer? Players, please find the murderer who killed the villa owner. Friendly reminder, every two hours, one player will be eliminated, so please find the murderer before all players are eliminated. Game begins."
At this moment, nine players were teleported to a villa.
The clothes they wore also changed. The nine people sat in front of a huge table, and each of them had an identity information in front of them.
There are no clues other than their own identifying information.
"Script-based killing?"
"Hmph, compared to the previous levels, this script-killing game is pretty simple."
"Damn it, the NPC isn't dead yet. You all look like NPCs to me."
"Why don't you say you're an NPC?"
Now there are only nine players left, which makes the other players more and more suspicious. They now only trust themselves.
"Stop talking nonsense, introduce yourself first and finish this crappy game as soon as possible."
After hearing this, everyone started looking at the information in their hands and then started reading directly.
Wang Qi: "Just tell me, don't waste time. I'll read it first. I'm the driver of the deceased's family."
Ke Qian: "My identity is the deceased's wife."
Lu Fengcheng: "I'm a doctor."
Ou Wanxing: "I'm a maid."
Yan Xingchen: "I am the deceased's father, why am I so old?"
Li Ze: "I am the eldest son of the deceased."
Xie Qi: "I am the youngest son of the deceased."
Zhang Jile: "I'm the housekeeper of this villa."
Bai Yu: "I'm a police officer here to investigate."
After watching everyone introduce themselves, Ke Qian leaned back in her chair and said, "Let me make it clear first, I'm not playing games with you. Hurry up and find the clues. If you find any, don't hide them from me. If you tell me the clues, we can discuss who the murderer is together."
Yan Xingchen: "But there is an NPC among the nine of us. Who can be sure that the NPC will not cause trouble and hide the clues?"
Wang Qi: "Damn it! Whoever is the NPC, admit it now!"
Ke Qian: "Stop threatening me. Be careful or the NPC will kill you first."
Zhang Jile: "How about this, let's go to the deceased's room first."
In this way, nine people came to the deceased's room.
As soon as they entered, they saw a body lying on the ground with a knife stuck in the back.
If it were in the past, they might have been scared, but after going through the previous levels, they were able to remain calm when seeing this kind of scene.
Even the only two girls there only took a glance and then started searching the room.
But after searching for a long time, they only found the information of the deceased in a newspaper.
