The military dagger was completely black, and it pierced the tattooed man's taut muscles and bones more easily than piercing a piece of paper; it was probably a prop.
Fan Xiao and the female CEO walked towards the direction where the baby-faced man and the handsome man had fallen to the ground.
Midway through, the female CEO suddenly asked, "You could have killed him earlier, couldn't you?"
Her implied meaning was that if Fan Xiao killed the baby-faced man beforehand, he could save the handsome man.
Four seconds elapsed between the moment Fan Xiao's arrow pierced the baby-faced man's chest and disappeared, and the moment the baby-faced man stabbed the handsome man in the chest.
In four seconds, she believed that Fan Xiao's blood-manipulating device could kill Babyface very easily.
"Are you condemning me?" Fan Xiao looked at the female CEO and smiled, "Then you may be disappointed. People without morals cannot be morally coerced."
"Really... I think your moral standards are quite high, at least much higher than the one lying on the ground."
The term "female CEO" refers to a handsome man who isn't quite dead yet.
She smiled at Fan Xiao with her delicate and charming face, revealing two shallow dimples: "No one likes someone who doesn't contribute anything when forming a team but always tries to take advantage. If they die, they die. I don't mean to condemn you, I'm just curious and asking."
Chapter 30: Fellow Countryman Meets Fellow Countryman
As they spoke, the two had already arrived beside the handsome man.
The handsome man seemed to have overheard Fan Xiao and the female CEO's undisguised "malicious conversation".
However, he no longer had the energy to be angry or resentful.
At that moment, his terrified face was filled with a desperate longing for life: "Save...me...please..."
"You can't be saved, you're about to die."
Fan Xiao looked at the handsome man and said calmly, "Does this sound familiar? That's right, you just said it to someone. But..."
With a smile, Fan Xiao continued, "I'm different from you. I'm more humanitarian. Even though you're doomed, I won't take the opportunity to kill you and steal your items. Let it go to waste. After all, we're teammates on the same side."
"I……"
The handsome guy seemed to want to give Fan Xiao a good scolding.
But his eyes became unfocused, and his breathing quickly stopped.
He passed away much more peacefully than a balding middle-aged man.
Fan Xiao had nothing to regret about not inheriting any items.
It's just an E-rank item anyway. Judging from how the handsome guy couldn't outrun the baby-faced guy even when he tried to run away, it probably won't be very effective.
Such a small amount of benefit wouldn't be enough to make him cross his moral bottom line.
Moreover, he has already obtained two rather useful E-rank items in this instance.
Kill the bald man and inherit the "arrogant doorknob".
And the "Ever-Changing Magic Clothes" inherited by the baby-faced killer.
[E-Rank Item - Ever-Changing Magic Clothes]
[Inspired by magical girls' transformation abilities, the clothes are made using special metals and possess powerful shape-changing and color-matching capabilities. One piece of clothing is equivalent to a hundred pieces, perfectly solving the problem of being broke.]
[Note 1: This is a versatile item that combines offense and defense. When transformed into a weapon, it possesses the hardness of steel; when transformed into armor, it's like encasing a person in a bulletproof vest.]
[Note 2: The magic armor has fluid properties; the parts that split off can be recovered and re-fused back together]
……
"I didn't expect that all the dangers would be resolved before the first day was even over."
Du Ruo appeared beside Fan Xiao at some point and sighed.
The taciturn werewolf followed behind him.
There are now only four living people left in the hotel.
Fan Xiao and Du Ruo are human players, while the werewolf and the female CEO are demi-human players.
There is no conflict or opposition between human players and demi-human players in terms of stance or faction.
Unless someone tries to kill you to steal the items, the next two days of the mission will be completely safe.
"The cost was also very high," the female CEO sighed softly, "Of the 12 people, only 4 of us are left."
"The death rate in this dungeon seems to be much higher than in other dungeons."
The werewolf suddenly said, "This is my second instance. In my first instance, nine players participated, and only two players died."
"Using our experience to anchor the mortality rate of a dungeon is too one-sided."
Du Ruo shook her head and shared her opinion: "For example, this dungeon is a simple Werewolf game; how many players die depends entirely on the actual situation."
"We were pretty unlucky this time. The player chosen as the 'evil spirit' was very strong; he killed three people on the first night alone."
"If the players who come in are all of similar strength, the 'evil spirit player' will be injured after killing the first person, and won't dare to be too rampant afterward. The mortality rate is probably not very high."
"Is this so..."
After being reminded, the werewolf quickly understood what had happened.
Among the 12 players, the bald man's combat power was already quite high, and with the "Evil Spirit Set" amplification, he could practically wipe out the entire dungeon.
It's a bit unbalanced.
Perhaps there are indeed instances where the death rate is inherently high.
But the death rate in other dungeons, unsurprisingly, depends on the player – it depends on what kind of player is on the dungeon.
"The death toll is high this time, and there are also issues with the response strategy."
Fan Xiao added, "We dealt with the evil spirits ahead of time, and the cannibalistic players, seeing that their number one threat was gone, dared to jump out and cause trouble."
"Otherwise, everyone would have the sword of evil hanging over their heads, and no one would dare to kill anyone, because the fewer people there are, the greater the chance that evil will come after them."
Actually, the danger disappeared after the bald man playing the evil spirit died.
As long as the remaining eight players live together, even if the two cannibals mixed in have any wicked ideas, they won't dare to act rashly due to the overwhelming number of players.
There is a high probability that all eight players will be able to get through the next two days unscathed.
Unfortunately, Fan Xiao engaged in phishing.
Given the high mortality rate this time, Fan Xiao admits that he bears some responsibility.
However, he was just fishing out of habit and didn't expect to succeed.
Killing cannibalistic players is not a necessity for him.
Apart from Du Ruo, the other players may not even be from the same Earth as him. There's really no need for him to risk eliminating cannibalistic players for the sake of peace in other people's worlds.
However, his fighting spirit was low, while the two cannibalistic players were very enthusiastic.
You can catch it with just a casual fishing trip.
This led to a situation where the arrow was already on the bowstring and had no choice but to be released.
and.
While fishing, Fan Xiao was observing the reactions of the baby-faced man and the tattooed man.
Fan Xiao had already noticed the baby-faced man's deliberate move to get closer to the balding middle-aged man.
If he wanted to, saving both the balding middle-aged man and the handsome guy would be a piece of cake.
The key issue is that he's unwilling.
As I've said before, nobody likes someone who constantly radiates negativity.
If you're disliked in an evolution game, you're just asking for trouble, and you can't blame others for being indifferent.
“In the normal scenario,” Fan Xiao said, “everyone would either survive by their own means under the threat of the evil spirits, or they would accidentally crash when the evil spirits attacked them. In both of these scenarios, the mortality rate would probably be lower than it is now.”
"Won't that result in a low dungeon rating?"
The female CEO looked at Fan Xiao with a meaningful gaze and smiled gently, "I've benefited from your success this time. I dealt with the evil spirit on the first day, so I should be able to easily get a mid-level rating. Thank you."
Fan Xiao: "You're welcome."
"How about we get to know each other better?" the female CEO suggested. "Maybe we can even go on dungeons together sometime in the future."
“The chances are slim, unless we’re from the same world zone,” Fan Xiao said. “I’m from zone 010.”
Du Ruo interjected, "I'm the same as him."
"Huh...? What a coincidence." The female CEO exclaimed in surprise, "I'm also from Division 010."
"010 partition? What is a world partition?" the werewolf asked.
“The Evolution Game encompasses many parallel worlds, each with its own number,” Du Ruo explained. “Our Earth is the same, numbered 010.”
“010…” the werewolf said, “Ranked tenth, pretty high.”
"It is 010 of the G08 spacetime node."
Du Ruo explained the concepts of spacetime nodes and world partitions in detail.
The werewolf quickly realized: "I see... I think I'm also from the 010 section."
Chapter 31 You don't have a normal name, do you?
Fan Xiao glanced at the werewolf and the female CEO and asked, "Is your 010 partition also part of the G08 spacetime node? Are you sure it doesn't belong to another spacetime node?"
“It’s G08, looks like we’re quite destined to meet,” the female CEO said with a slight smile.
The werewolf nodded: "Me too."
"This is actually quite normal. People from the same world zone have a high probability of meeting in an E-level dungeon. I've encountered this situation before when I entered a dungeon."
Du Ruo stepped forward to explain: "Although the probability of players who know each other holding the same ticket is very small and cannot enter the dungeon together, when the base number expands to the whole world, the situation will change. In the last dungeon, I even met some people from the same world, from the island nation."
He immediately adopted his professional instincts, flashing a friendly smile at the werewolf and the female CEO, and handed them two cards: "These are my business cards. Let me introduce myself. My name is Du Ruo, and I belong to the Special Affairs Bureau. The Special Affairs Bureau is a newly established department of the country, specifically responsible for events related to players and evolution games. So far, we have recruited many players and possess a wealth of intelligence and resources, which can provide players with a lot of assistance. If you are interested in joining us, please feel free to contact me by phone after you leave."
“Special Affairs Bureau…” The werewolf took the business card.
"I know about the Special Affairs Bureau; my intelligence comes from their official website."
The female CEO nodded, glanced at Fan Xiao, and asked Du Ruo, "Is he one of yours too?"
"Not yet," Du Ruo said with a smile.
"Right now... since we're all from the same world, let's get to know each other. Maybe we can get together again when we get back."
After the female CEO made the suggestion, she introduced herself, saying, "My name is Yan Kening, and I'm a businesswoman."
“Xu Yao,” the werewolf said.
Fan Xiao: "Fan Jian".
Yan Kening: "..."
Du Ruo: "..."
Du Ruo looked at Fan Xiao, hesitating to speak.
He couldn't quite tell if Fan Xiao was joking to lighten the mood or if he was just being cautious and unwilling to reveal his name even in this situation.
Because he was unsure of the situation, he did not take it upon himself to reveal anything.
“A stingy man can unknowingly miss out on a lot of opportunities.”
Yan Kening said to Fan Xiao with a smile.
"Just kidding," Fan Xiao replied. "Fan Xiao used to be a graphic designer, but now he's unemployed and waiting for a rich woman to come and take care of him."
"What a coincidence, I have so much money I can hardly spend it all, so I should be quite satisfied with the so-called 'rich woman' label. Are you interested?"
Yan Kening followed his words and hinted at something.
Both of them used jokes to ease the initial awkwardness of meeting.
Fan Xiao took out paper and pen from his storage space and said, "Let's exchange phone numbers so we can stay in touch when we're out."
Then he wrote down his own first.
Get to know more players and expand your network; it will come in handy someday.
Fortunately, Xu Yao and Yan Kening were not frightened by his "desecration of the corpse" behavior and naturally wrote down their numbers.
