Hello, Jiang Ran.
The dark muzzle of the gun was pointed at Jiang Ran, and Yamashita's expression was full of danger.
"I really didn't expect to run into you here, it's quite a coincidence."
Jiang Ran wasn't afraid at all; instead, she greeted him casually.
"What, are you going to kill me? Don't you want to finish the game?"
“Your question is meaningless.” Yamagami lowered his eyes. “I might as well tell you that although you may have already analyzed this information, my first kill using my ability will not disqualify me from clearing the game.”
"If anyone is qualified to let me waste this one and only chance, it's you, Jiang Ran."
After the Abyss Cruise instance, the Dragon Kingdom members reviewed the instance and realized that after a certain collision between Sheep Mountain and the Mountain, the Mountain did indeed have unlimited opportunities to kill people!
Jiang Ran was of course aware of this information.
"You know I have a life-saving item."
"It doesn't matter. My ability will only deduct an extra bullet after a kill." Yamaue also revealed a contemptuous smile. "Even if you have a life-saving item, it's just a waste of one bullet. It's worth it to deal with you."
"Besides, who knows, you might have already used up your life-saving items?"
Delay could lead to unforeseen consequences, so the person on the mountain didn't waste any more words and pulled the trigger directly!
Bang!
Jiang Ran lay on the ground, his body mangled and bloody!
"Hahaha--"
Jiang Ran burst into laughter, and despite his broken body, he stood up and placed his hand on Shan Shangye's body.
Bang!
Gunfire erupted again from the mountain, but Jiang Ran stood there without flinching or dodging.
"Alright, this time it's a little bit more realistic. I almost fell for it at first." Jiang Ran looked up, his injuries completely healed. "But an illusion is still an illusion. It can't be completely flawless."
The fact that Yamashita had been standing in front of Jiang Ran for so long, yet Jiang Ran still couldn't replicate his talent, could only mean one thing: the person standing in front of him wasn't Yamashita.
The words "mountain" disappeared, and Jiang Ran leaned against a tree, taking a deep breath and resting for a while.
Being able to copy the talents of other ghost storytellers is undoubtedly a powerful ability. If it were the Abyss Cruise instance where everyone was together at the beginning, Jiang Ran could instantly acquire the talents of the other 29 people. What difference would that make from being invincible?
Unlike this world, where you can't encounter a single person for half a day, what's the point of replicating anything! But fortunately, there is one advantage: you can use this ability to determine whether the person standing in front of you is an illusion or not, so it's barely acceptable.
The blood blade had been formed, but it had not killed any of the strange creatures, so it did not disappear.
The effect of Kindred's Mark: Wolf can indeed reduce the side effects of Blood Blade, but unfortunately the effect of Sheep cannot directly restore lost blood. Otherwise, Jiang Ran could have hacked his way through during this duration!
The most urgent task is to get to the Holy Church first. The first person to arrive at the Holy Church will gain an advantage, as some key items often only have one of each.
However, what really bothered Jiang Ran was Han Xiaodong's ability. As seen in the last world, Han Xiaodong's ability could be used on the same person repeatedly. In other words, Han Xiaodong could use his ability on Jiang Ran again at any time!
However, after so much time, Jiang Ran realized that Lin Changqing could no longer give him any hints, which meant that all the opportunities for hints from other countries had been cut off.
Han Xiaodong launched an opportunity, but without the observer's warning, he didn't know if Jiang Ran was already dead there, or if Jiang Ran's location was dangerous. If anything went wrong, he would lose his own life.
Under these circumstances, Han Xiaodong would most likely not recklessly activate his ability again, but it is certain that once the opportunity arises, he will definitely try every means to kill Jiang Ran!
"Such a disgusting ability wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it SSS-level, so where exactly is the limitation of his ability?"
With Jiang Ran's current lamp oil reserves, he was confident he could reach the Holy Church. However, once there, he might have to stay inside for a long time without being able to replenish his lamp oil. It would be better to accept another bounty to fully increase his lamp oil reserves and also take advantage of the Blood Blade opportunity.
Well, that's settled then. Jiang Ran continued heading towards the Holy Church, taking any bounties he encountered along the way.
clang--
The bells, which resounded throughout the island, rang again, but this time there were only fifteen chimes.
Five minutes later, Jiang Ran actually came across a bounty poster, but when he actually got close to read it, he felt a chill run down his spine.
[The person for whom a bounty has been placed: Yu Cheng, a ghost storyteller from China]
[Reward: 200 (approximately 5.26 bottles of lamp oil; under standard lighting conditions with a radius of 5 meters, each bottle of lamp oil can keep the soul lamp burning for 20 minutes)]
[The Dragon Kingdom's SS-rank mystery tale teller, Yu Cheng, has unknown talents. If you accept this bounty, it will be considered that you have entered into a two-way hunting relationship with him. You will be able to sense each other's location. Killing him or being killed by him will not disqualify either of you from completing the game.]
The wanted criminals aren't just the island's eerie creatures; are there other ghost storytellers among them?!
Accepting the bounty will remove the restriction that disqualifies you from passing the level for murder. Yes, that's right. Jiang Ran already sensed something was wrong from the deal proposed by the Soul Merchant. He didn't expect it to erupt in this way!
After carefully reading the bounty poster, Jiang Ran tore it off!
He certainly didn't intend to kill Yu Cheng, nor would he do so.
The bounty order only lifted the restriction on the two killing each other, but did not force them to kill each other. Instead, it would reveal each other's locations.
Furthermore, multiple bounty posters can be accepted at the same time. Jiang Ran tearing off Yu Cheng's bounty poster does not prevent him from accepting other bounty posters. At the same time, it can also prevent others from accepting Yu Cheng's bounty posters. No matter how you look at it, it is a sure-fire way to make money!
It seems this new bounty was brought about by the bell tolling. What do the 17 tolls represent? Do they mean seventeen new bounty posters have been issued, or that seventeen people are still alive?
Or perhaps, both?
Yu Cheng is definitely not the only ghost storyteller with a bounty on his head; in fact, everyone is marked with a bounty, though it's unclear which tree it's stuck on.
Jiang Ran's bounty notice was the same.
"If that's the case, Velens, you'd better pray I don't run into your bounty!"
