It’s a strange invasion, is it okay for me to fight back?

Chapter 311 Asking questions
Fang Ye recognized He Su's card at a glance.

On their way to being assigned as bodyguards, the two had a brief discussion about the card patterns. He Su said that the hummingbird pattern looked like a moth with a very long beak.

The pattern of the hexagonal prism is also very obvious, it is a regular geometric shape.

There were five cards left, and he was a little unsure of their meanings, especially the beast patterns, which were the most difficult to identify because the graphics were too abstract. A wolf pattern could be mistaken for a hyena, a fox, or even a badger.

Fang Ye's eyes swept over each card one by one.

He didn't dare to take the risk with those cards of unknown meaning, and between Hummingbird and Prism, Prism was more tempting to him because he had seen Gray Rat fight with this card. Before the contaminated body appeared, Gray Rat could almost fight ten alone with ease.

Could this be a trap set by Xing Guang? She deliberately let him see the power of the prism and then tempted him to make a choice?

...But can he resist the temptation?

To get a high-level card, not to mention in Star Hunter International, even in the Supervisory Bureau with more resources, one needs to apply, approve, and go through layers of assessments, as well as a bit of luck and a long wait before one has a chance to get one.

But now, the high-level cards are right in front of him, at his fingertips.

Fang Ye took a deep breath, opened his five fingers, and completely grasped the suspended silver card in his palm.

He eventually chose the hexagonal prism.

Baimao waved his hand again, and all the remaining cards were stored in his body.

Starlight smiled and said, "Good choice, White Hair, take him to rest."

Baimao looked at Fang Ye with a half-smile, "Come with me."

Fang Ye felt mixed emotions and followed Baimao silently.

They walked through the aisle in the middle of the factory, went around to the back door, and out came an old-style tube-shaped building.

This is the staff dormitory of the sawmill. It is four stories high and has induction lights installed in the corridor. It looks like it has been vacant for a long time, with a thick layer of dust on the stair railings.

When going upstairs, the hexagonal prism was completely digested in Fang Ye's body.

The power of the prism has been greatly weakened. The copying ability has been weakened from the upper limit of six cards to only being able to copy one card, and the pollution value has increased by 8%, which shows that the compatibility between the prism and the mermaid is not good.

Fang Ye's mood became increasingly depressed, and he couldn't help but suspect that this result was within Xingguang's expectations, which was why Xingguang generously let him choose the cards.

As Baimao walked, he said, "There are more mosquitoes downstairs, but it's a little cleaner upstairs. Every room is livable, and the toilets are at the end of the corridor on each floor."

Fang Ye casually pushed open a door. The furnishings inside were extremely simple, with a table and two double bunk beds, and nothing else, not even a mattress or pillow.

But he was not here for vacation. He would live wherever the aliens arranged for him to live.

Baimao saw a blood scab on his arm and asked curiously, "How did you get that on your arm?"

Fang Ye pursed his lips and briefly recounted the episode of how his arm was broken and how he luckily survived.

Xingguang gave him a special healing potion, so the wound on his arm has almost healed. Baimao laughed and teased him, "Keep up the good work."

Fang Ye lowered his head and whispered dejectedly: "Why don't you just kill me..."

Baimao grabbed the iron ladder next to him and easily jumped to the upper bunk. He crossed his legs and replied, "No reason. If Xingguang doesn't want to kill you, we won't kill you."

Fang Ye frowned, raised his head and asked Baimao again: "Why doesn't Xingguang want to kill me? Not only did you not kill me, you also gave me cards. Do you look down on me and think that no matter how you treat me, I won't resist, right?"

Baimao was speechless at first, but after a moment he was overjoyed and burst into laughter while sitting on the upper bunk!
She laughed so hard that the bed creaked. Fang Ye clenched his fist in embarrassment and asked, "What's so funny?!"

Baimao laughed so hard that tears almost came out of his eyes. "You are such an interesting human. You have so many associations. If you want to resist, just do it. I have said before that nothing can be hidden from Xingguang. If you really want to resist, Xingguang will know. You can try it."

Fang Ye frowned and said nothing.

Seeing his frustrated look, Baimao patiently explained: "Giving you the card is not a big deal. If you don't obey, can't I just kill you? The card will not disappear. It is nothing more than transferring from one person's body to another. Didn't you see what happened to the gray rat?"

She lay down on her side, propped up her cheek with one hand, and said sarcastically, "It's just a dog. When you are in a good mood, you can dress the dog in beautiful clothes and put on an expensive collar, but the dog is still a dog."

Bai Mao's words made Fang Ye's resentment disappear little by little.

He suddenly lost the energy to be angry. He became extremely depressed and sat on the lower bunk bed in a daze, not saying a word.

Baimao looked at him for a while and spoke again: "Xingguang... is a very proud person. Although he always says that the mission is the most important thing and he doesn't need to pay attention to the hidden boss, he actually wants to win or lose in his heart. The man named Fengling tamed the players and administrators to work for him, and Xingguang wants to tame humans. He gets a psychological sense of superiority by taming you. If he kills you, it is equivalent to admitting defeat, so I don't think Xingguang will kill you - at least before the hidden boss dies, he won't kill you."

There was less sarcasm and more seriousness in her tone.

Fang Ye looked up at her and said in a low voice, "I see. Thank you."

"You're welcome." Baimao replied, "Since Xingguang has entrusted you to me, it's better to explain some things to you earlier, so that you don't ask questions all day long."

Fang Ye then bravely asked, "What is the next action?"

"Send the group of players to the paradise. Don't ask me what the paradise is. I haven't been there either. I heard it's a good place. You'll know when you go there." Baimao replied.

Fang Ye asked hesitantly: "Should I... also follow you and go to that paradise together?"

"I don't know, maybe. Anyway, Xingguang will arrange it." Baimao didn't worry about these things and said indifferently, "Once we get the Puppet Master's card, we will leave here and go to Paradise."

Fang Ye couldn't help but pour cold water on her: "With such a big commotion tonight, the supervisory bureaus in several nearby cities will definitely support Jingnan City and send more personnel to Jingnan City. And there is also that pollutant, you should just give up."

Baimao closed his eyes and said, "Don't worry about this. Xingguang has already arranged it."

Fang Ye was stunned. "...arranged? What did he arrange?"

"Don't you know?" Baimao lifted his eyelids and glanced at him lightly, "Don't worry, you will know tomorrow. Now I'm tired and need to rest. Good night."

Baimao turned over and fell asleep on his side on the bed.

Fang Ye was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look at the night sky outside the window, and recalled his experiences of the past few days. He was extremely confused.
