The Last Rose 48



"That's exactly what it says. Players can earn points by answering questions and plundering others. Plundering isn't limited to attacking and killing people."

"Attacks will earn you points based on the severity of the wound. Killing someone will earn you all of the victim's points."

Rose's tone became excited, "How about it, doesn't it sound fun?"

"It's funny your dad - are you fucking crazy? How can you come up with such a crazy idea?" Li Weiyan cursed.

The others also looked as ugly as if they had eaten a dead fly.

Rose didn't argue with him this time. "Once you enter the game, you must abide by the rules. Otherwise, how can you play?"

"By the way, let me remind you that the time is already halfway through, and your plot lines haven't been sorted out yet. Time is running out for you. Come on before the final dinner~"

"You *……%……%¥#!" Li Weiyan had a thousand swear words to curse, but because he was afraid of being electrocuted, he muted himself manually.

No one spoke for a long time after the words were spoken.

"How do I check my health?" Pei Jinzhi suddenly thought of this question. She turned her head and suddenly saw a green bar above Jiang Lusheng's head.

"you……"

She looked at him in shock for a while, realized something, and turned to the other side to look at Li Weiyan.

The stripes on Li Weiyan's head are also green.

Jiang Lusheng noticed her gaze, looked over, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"This is our health bar, right? A full bar means full health bar, which means it's safer..."

He paused suddenly. The life bar above Mu Tiao's head was red, and only one third was left.

Noticing that everyone was looking at him, Mu Tiao asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me?"

Pei Jinzhi pursed his lips and reminded her: "Your health bar is only one-third left."

"What?"

Mu Tiao suddenly panicked. She looked around and saw everyone's expressions were complicated.

Mu Tiao suddenly stood up and walked to the lounge, then rushed into the bathroom to look in the mirror. There was indeed only one-third of the red stripe left on her head.

She opened her mouth in disbelief. What did this mean?

When answering the question before, she said that her character died. Does this mean that the character’s death will still affect them, the players?

The living room was dead silent. Everyone looked at each other, and finally their eyes fell on Wen Qingqing. Wen Qingqing's life bar was also red, even a little less than Mu Tiao's.

"You...what's wrong with you?" Li Weiyan's Adam's apple rolled, feeling a little reluctant.

Wen Qingqing cried out in fear, "I don't know, I didn't do anything."

Jiang Lusheng stared at her for a few seconds, frowning.

Mu Tiao came out of the bathroom in a daze. Seeing Wen Qingqing crying, he was stunned for a moment, then looked at her life bar and felt a sense of sympathy.

"I can't rob others of their points. I'd better just work hard on answering the questions."

Mu Tiao collapsed on the sofa, his previous calmness and charm gone.

Everyone was in a low mood until there was a "clang" sound and everyone was startled.

Jiang Lusheng stood up and said, "It's nine o'clock, let's get ready for dinner."

“Who can still eat it?”

Li Weiyan sighed, but sat down obediently at the table.

After everyone sat down, the butler came out like a ghost, looking refreshed and bringing the servants to serve the dishes.

Seeing that no one was moving their knives and forks, he opened his mouth to find fault again. Jiang Lusheng slowly raised his knife and flicked the back of the knife with his fingers. "I hate it most when people chatter while I'm eating. This knife looks quite sharp, I wonder how it will cut meat?"

As he said this, he glanced at the butler and smiled meaningfully.

housekeeper:"……"

The open mouth closed immediately.

Soon, the master and his wife also came down. The wife glanced at him smugly, then raised her glass with a smile. "I told you, only obedient children can live well here. Xiaoliu has been too naughty recently. It's time to teach him a lesson. You should learn from him."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Pei Jinzhi with a slightly cold look in her eyes, "Come upstairs with me after dinner, I have something to tell you."

Pei Jinzhi looked at her for a few seconds and nodded.

The lady then took a sip of red wine with satisfaction.

She had painted her lips too red today, and when she drank red wine, the colors almost blended together, making it look like she was drinking blood. Everyone's appetite was not very good to begin with, and seeing this scene, it was even harder to swallow.

Only the master was not affected at all. After eating and drinking to his heart's content, he put down his knife and fork and said, "The previous dinner was just a warm-up. The real Rose Feast will be the day after tomorrow. No one can be missing then. You all must dress up to attend. This Rose Feast is very important to our manor. No one can slack off. Do you understand? If anyone dares to cause trouble at this banquet..."

He sneered, looked at everyone with a kind look, slowly moved his tongue, and licked his lower lip, "You can go and provide nutrients for the roses."

"Hmph." The lady laughed, took his arm and left with him.

Li Weiyan shuddered. "What do you mean? If we dare to cause trouble, they will kill us?"

"It seems so." He Ping's face turned pale and he pressed his stomach.

"What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" Li Weiyan asked.

"I have a little stomachache, it's just an old problem, don't worry about me."

He Ping waved his hand. Li Weiyan wanted to say something when Rose's voice rang out.

"Time to answer the questions is up. Today's points are one thousand. Everyone, think carefully before you write."

As soon as the words fell, paper and pen appeared.

Jiang Lusheng took a look. Today's question was: "Can you identify the people around you?"

Jiang Lusheng raised his eyebrows. This question seemed to have nothing to do with the plot, but in connection with what happened last night, it seemed to hint at something.

"What the hell? Why are your questions getting more and more perverted? What do you mean by distinguishing the people around you?"

Rose was cold and silent.

Everyone looked at each other, their expressions becoming subtle.

Now that points are tied to health points, if they answer incorrectly, they'll be at a disadvantage.

For a moment, no one dared to write anything.

After a stalemate of five minutes, Jiang Lusheng moved first and chose "yes".

Seeing this, the others pursed their lips and gave their own answers.

"Time's up—let me see what you all wrote?" Rose laughed. "Ah—your answers are all the same."

Jiang Lusheng rested his knuckles against his chin, not surprised by the result at all, but... he guessed they all lost.

As expected, Rose announced the answer, "I'm sorry, no one answered this question correctly. Everyone will have one thousand points deducted."

"Are you kidding us?" Liu Quan clenched his fists. "Can or cannot is a very subjective thing. How can you be sure that we can't do something that hasn't happened yet?"

Rose said calmly: "Because you lost from the first day you walked in."
