Volume 3: Death in Progress Chapter 044 New mission released!
"Senior, I don't quite understand this either. And here..."
"Zhao Liang, Cheng En, just call me Feng Yu. We are the same age, and it's awkward for you to call me senior. It makes me sound like an old man."
"Senior, please don't say that. You are the senior after all. Zhao Liang and I are juniors and we will rely on your help in the future. You entered here earlier than us, so you naturally have more experience than us, so it's okay for us to call you senior."
"You should just call me Fengyu, or you can find someone else to solve your doubts!"
"Feng Yu, Feng Yu, can't we just call you Feng Yu? Please don't chase us away. The senior with glasses didn't say anything when we asked him. As for Captain Li, we didn't dare to talk to her either."
“…”
The two people standing beside Zhang Fengyu at this moment, looking at him with admiration on their faces are the two young men. The young man with a short buzz cut and a somewhat dull face is called Zhao Liang, and the other young man with a slightly fat body and a good-natured look is called Cheng En. They were roommates in a certain university. They and several other roommates signed up for a summer camp. They originally wanted to have a good time during the summer vacation, but a fierce ghost appeared in the summer camp, and the wanted order they received was the ticket for the summer camp.
Their novice task was to play with ghosts, that is, the ghosts blindfolded them and tried to catch them within a fixed range. Those caught by the ghosts would naturally be killed. The two of them survived by chance because they ran fast and dodged in time. When Zhang Fengyu knew how the two of them survived, he looked at Cheng En who was a little fat next to him. He really couldn't imagine how fast such a fat man could dodge.
In the past few days, Cheng En and Zhao Liang also slowly accepted all of this, and Zhang Fengyu, just like Wang Lin at that time, constantly enlightened and encouraged them, and answered their questions. Of course, in this kind of answer, Zhang Fengyu often talked about the good side, and as for the bad side, he just glossed over it, and these people naturally included Qiao Yan.
Qiao Yan is much older than Zhao Liang and others, and she is also a successful entrepreneur, so her brain is naturally better than that of ordinary people. After thinking about it these days, Qiao Yan gradually accepted it all. She tactfully expressed her apologies to Zhang Fengyu. Zhang Fengyu was naturally very happy to see Qiao Yan accept all this. After all, he did the same as Wang Lin at that time. Qiao Yan also talked about her novice mission.
Qiao Yan’s newbie mission can be said to be very special. She has to sign a contract with a client , but that client really loves playing mahjong. Qiao Yan has no choice but to find two friends to play mahjong with that boss, but who knew that the boss turned out to be an evil spirit!
The evil ghost fixed the three of them firmly in their seats and forced them to play mahjong with him. The one who called the shot would be killed, and if the ghost drew his own hand, everyone would die. As a result, one person was unlucky enough to call the ghost a shot and was also killed by the ghost. So there were only two people left. After that, the ghost played Landlord with two people including her. If the ghost was the landlord and won, they would be killed. On the contrary, if they called the landlord, they would be killed by the ghost if they lost, but if they won, they would survive. As a result, Qiao Yan's friend took the risk and called the landlord, but he lost and was killed by the ghost. So there were only Qiao Yan and the ghost left. In the end, Qiao Yan and the ghost played 21 points, and Qiao Yan beat the ghost by 20 points to 19 points and survived. As for the wanted order they received, it was RMB.
After hearing about Qiao Yan's novice mission, Zhang Fengyu felt cold sweats running down his face when he imagined it. He could imagine that when Qiao Yan's friends were dying in front of her one after another, she still wanted to play blackjack with ghosts to compare the size. How much courage would that take!
Zhang Fengyu felt at that time that Qiao Yan must not be a simple person. However, Zhang Fengyu did not know that Qiao Yan drew cards a total of 8 times when playing blackjack with the ghost.
"I wonder if you have any more questions?"
When Zhang Fengyu saw the three people shaking their heads, he felt as if a stone had been put down in his heart. He now understood how Wang Lin felt at that time. It was indeed not an easy job to explain to a novice. Although he himself was just a newcomer who had experienced one formal mission, Zhao Liang and others heard from Chen Ping that even the old captain who had survived 19 missions died in the last mission, but Zhang Fengyu, a rookie like them, survived. It was because of this that the three people, including Qiao Yan, felt that Zhang Fengyu's analytical ability must be very strong.
This was naturally because Chen Ping simply ignored them, and Li Xuan was because the three of them had never seen her come out in these days, so after believing all this, they could only rely on Zhang Fengyu.
Zhang Fengyu took a look at Li Xuan's room, and he felt a little worried. From the fact that Li Xuan refused to talk about the last mission, Zhang Fengyu felt that Li Xuan might have been stimulated in the last mission. He wanted to go to Li Xuan to say hello these days, but fearing that he would be treated coldly by Li Xuan, he gave up the idea.
Li Xuan lay on her single bed, staring blankly at the pure white ceiling, wondering what she was thinking.
"Captain Wang, I originally thought that your position as captain was just useless, but when I took over, I found that there were so many secrets hidden in this position. After killing all the executors, you only need to submit 20 health points to challenge the ultimate mission? Captain Wang, are you reluctant to kill us, or are you not sure if you can make it?"
Li Xuan is now making up her mind, because she finds that a captain like her has the greatest convenience, which is that she can get rid of the curse with just one mission, but the prerequisite is to kill all the executors in the death base. After handing over 20 health points, she can exchange for the opportunity to complete the ultimate mission of this challenge. If she succeeds, she will completely get rid of the curse, otherwise she will die. The information Li Xuan received did not mention how difficult this ultimate mission is, which means that it is very likely to be just an ordinary wanted mission. What she is considering now is whether to do this mission and kill everyone!
"From Captain Wang's attitude towards the newcomers, I can tell that Captain Wang didn't give up because he was afraid of the difficulty of the mission, but because he couldn't bear it. However, Captain Wang gave the position of captain to me instead of to Chen Ping. Obviously, he was worried that Chen Ping would kill everyone after learning this information, and he gave it to me because he thought I couldn't do it and I couldn't bear it!"
If Wang Lin knew that Li Xuan had killed dozens of people in order to complete the mission, Wang Lin would have reconsidered. However, Wang Lin was afraid that Chen Ping would kill everyone after becoming the captain, so he gave the position of captain to Li Xuan in advance, instead of waiting until he died and then choosing between Li Xuan and Chen Ping.
"What should I choose? Every extra mission I complete means I am one step closer to death. Although this ultimate mission is dangerous, it is a chance to reach the sky in one step. Should I do it? Kill them before the new mission is issued, should I? Yun Yun, can you tell me?"
This choice is undoubtedly a choice between humanity and the desire to survive, rather than a choice between humanity and life and death, because even if she carries out the ultimate mission, Li Xuan has no confidence that she can survive. Perhaps this is also a trap that tempts people to commit suicide, but it is also an opportunity for her to escape from the abyss in one step. Should she destroy her humanity and seek an opportunity, or rely on her own will to survive tenaciously...
This choice was also a cruel one. When Li Xuan was struggling, her door was knocked: "Li Xuan? Are you okay? You haven't left the room for two days. Is there something on your mind?"
The voice belonged to Zhang Fengyu. He finally knocked on Li Xuan's door shamelessly. No matter what, now that Wang Lin was no longer around, the only person he felt some affection for was Li Xuan, so he decided to come and take a look.
Hearing Zhang Fengyu's concern, Li Xuan's clenched fists dropped instantly. She replied calmly: "I'm fine. I've been resting these days. Thank you for your concern."
This cold answer once again made Zhang Fengyu feel cold in his heart, but this time at least Li Xuan said thank you to him.
"Then you have a good rest. I'm going back to my room."
"Oh!" Li Xuan sighed softly. It was obvious that she had given up challenging the ultimate mission. She didn't know whether it was her own thought or Zhang Fengyu's greeting that made her give up.
It can be said that it is easy for Li Xuan to kill Zhang Fengyu and other people who are not prepared at all, because any weapon can be exchanged at will in this death base. As long as you dare to think about it, it can appear, so killing is not a difficult task. However, Wang Lin made up a rule of the death base before this, that is, the executors are not allowed to kill each other, otherwise they will also be cursed and killed. But in fact, this rule does not exist. Li Xuan only knew this after taking over the identity of the captain, but he did not disclose this matter. She did not want to fight with ghosts for her life in the outside world, and she was still worried about being killed by humans after returning!
"Logically speaking, the new mission's instructions should have been released by now. I wonder if Captain Wang has concealed anything from us on this issue."
Thinking of this, Li Xuan showed some expectation. She also hoped that what she expected was the good side, not the bad side. However, during this process, Li Xuan's expression suddenly tensed up, and she exclaimed in her heart: "Here it comes!"
Apparently the new wanted mission prompt has been released at this time!
