Chapter 222: Transforming Community Experience (Thirty-One)
In just a moment, Awan vaguely reacted.
"Are you lying to me?"
According to the sound and path Tang Xin Jue used to lead the ghost away, it was impossible for him to catch up in such a short time, unless it was just an illusion -
But if it was just a cover, how were the ghosts lured away?
When did they begin to doubt themselves?
"No, it should be that you two are colluding to deceive me. You never trusted me at all!"
Whether it is the self-introduction at the beginning, or the subsequent division of labor and cooperation, and searching for information...it's all a routine!
Zheng Wanqing frowned, completely confused. "You just wanted to kill me, so what right do you have to accuse us of not trusting you?"
Is it based on confidence in your acting skills?
Awan: “…”
She knew that now was not the time to get entangled, so she could only suppress all her doubts and depression and find a chance to escape from here.
After all, even if they found out she was wrong, what could they do? She had already successfully achieved her goal. Bai Zhi was already dead. All she had to do next was return to the casino, and she would no longer have any worries.
Awan found the right moment and rushed forward, exchanging two blows with Tang Xin Jue. Then, she used the same trick again to bounce out and headed straight for the corner.
"Huh, I'm back..."
Bang!
The two figures collided head-on at the corner. Awan, clutching her aching nose, took two steps back before she saw the dusty Guo Guo dragging another body. She looked up with a puzzled expression:
"Are you guys starting the fight so soon? No wonder Jue Shen just said you might do something bad to Wan Qing. Luckily we didn't make it in time."
Awan choked, the ominous feeling of being tricked growing stronger. Then, when she looked down and saw the person Guo Guo was dragging, her expression suddenly changed drastically:
"Him? ...You guys?!!"
She raised her finger and pointed at Guo Guo, then suddenly turned her head to look inside the room she had just run out of, her face full of disbelief:
Isn’t Bai Zhi in the house?
So who is Guo Guotuo’s man now?
As she looked closely, she felt her blood rushing to her head: the boy in front of her, who had also lost both arms, had the same slightly curly hair, and the same pale skin, was undoubtedly Bai Zhi himself. The body lying in the room just now...
Without the clothes covering him, only the other person's face was blurred. Not only was he missing both arms and legs, but his stature was also obviously smaller than Bai Zhi's, not to mention the color of his hair -
That's not Bai Zhi at all!
Zheng Wanqing had already squatted beside the body. When she turned her head, she could clearly see the fingerprints on his neck.
"You rushed in faster than me just now, not to save people, but to kill people."
If Tang Xinjue and the other man had not arrived earlier and replaced the body with another one, Bai Zhi would have been dead by now.
Tang Xin Jue watched this scene quietly: "Classmate, is this the way you said you would repay the favor of saving my life?"
Awan: “…”
She opened her mouth and said, "You're a step behind me, not because you can't outrun me, but because you're fishing, right?"
There were still many things she didn't understand, but it didn't matter now.
The plan was exposed. With three people on the opposite side and Tang Xinjue here, she had no chance of turning the tables.
She still hunched her head, her pale face wrinkled weakly, but a fierce look shone through her dark eyes. The girl slowly shook her head and took two steps back. She opened her mouth as if to explain, but the next moment her abdomen suddenly contracted.
"ah--!"
As soon as the sharp cry was uttered, he was cut off in place by an elbow striking the back of his neck, and his body fell limply to the ground.
Zheng Wanqing retracted her arm, pulled the man up, and asked Tang Xinjue, "Were you safe just now?"
Tang Xinjue nodded: "Everything went well."
After the split, Zheng Wanqing and Awan took a long detour. She and Guo Guo, seemingly taking a shortcut to lure away the ghosts, had actually already separated. Tang Xinjue alone led away the spliced monsters, while Guo Guo reached Bai Zhi's location ahead of him, replacing him with the now-cold body of another candidate.
So when Awan and Zheng Wanqing arrived, they saw a body with its upper body covered. A closer look would have immediately identified the real thing. But if she was desperate and rushed to kill, she would likely kill without hesitation to avoid any hidden dangers.
As it turned out, she did exactly that, even more greedy than Tang Xinjue had initially anticipated —she also wanted to get rid of Zheng Wanqing. If not, she might not have completely escaped.
Tang Xinjue searched around for a while. In addition to Bai Zhi's [Tourist Identity Card], there were several cards belonging to other candidates in the room. The appearance and style of these cards were very similar to the VIP Tourist Card in 606's hand.
"Looking at it this way, Bai Zhi and his group should have come in using reward cards just like ."
Although they happened at different times, the people and events they encountered were completely different. 606 turned into a doll and met the surviving Zhou Ao, while Bai Zhi and the others met Awan.
"Is Bai Zhi really her savior?" Zheng Wanqing was a little skeptical: "Why do I feel like he's her enemy?"
How deep must the hatred be to be willing to stay in such a dangerous environment, and even scream and attract monsters after being exposed, just to kill the person first?
Guo Guo: "But I don't think so. In our friendly league instance, weren't Bai's roommates still classified as good students?"
If they had only suspected it before, they were able to confirm it only after seeing Bai Zhi. This candidate was none other than the healing practitioner from the male dormitory 303 who had worked with them briefly in the previous group battle.
But now, the healer has lost both arms and is unconscious, and the other boys in 303 only have their name tags left here, but they are nowhere to be found.
Recalling some fragments from the ghost illusion, Tang Xin Jue was silent for two seconds, then shook his head and said, "We'll have to wait until they all wake up to find out."
Only the parties involved can truly understand what exactly happened.
Now, while the spliced monsters that were lured away have not returned yet, they have only two choices: either be prepared to fight the returning monsters, or leave in time to find the next resting place.
Zheng Wanqing voted first: "This isn't Landlord. How can you play three with two? The opponent has a royal bomb. I think unless Bai Zhi can wake up, we should retreat first... Wait a minute, Xin Jue, are you injured?"
Her eyes sharpened, and she rushed forward to lift up Tang Xinjue's collar, revealing a wound that pierced his collarbone.
Before this, Tang Xinjue's actions and expressions were normal. If it weren't for the little blood oozing from his collar, they might not have noticed until they got out.
Guo Guo: "!!! Was it that splicing monster who did it?"
Even before the game arrived, Tang Xinjue's physique, despite her sickly appearance, was definitely the strongest in the dormitory. Aside from the humanoid monster, the remaining monsters in this building had a hard time hurting her.
Tang Xin Jue pulled up his clothes and said, "It's okay. Getting hurt is a good thing. It means it didn't succeed."
If she hadn't had the wound, her current body integrity would probably not be preserved.
Guo Guo: "!!! It really wants your limbs! What does it want, an arm or a leg?"
"No." Tang Xinjue said calmly, "It's the head."
