"You haven't forgotten, have you? Uncle Jian and that slick-haired young master were beaten to death for killing someone. As for the three bodyguards who didn't kill anyone, although they displayed superhuman strength, they were only caught and locked up."
"As long as you're alive, there's still a chance to turn things around."
“Uh… I forgot about that!” Nelong nodded: “Killing people randomly is indeed a bit risky.”
"Sigh, who can argue with that?" Fan Xiao sighed. "It's rare to have a legitimate reason to kill someone and vent my anger. I was even planning to have a good meal, but I have to worry about so many things... What a hassle!"
"Brother, you have to be patient!" Nei Long advised. "Just bear with it, seven days will pass quickly. You can't kill anyone during this time!"
It's ironic that a vicious, cannibalistic player would advise the kind-hearted Fan Xiao against killing people.
"Then... then what should we do?" the girl with the low ponytail asked Fan Xiao. "If we don't kill anyone, wouldn't that be disobeying the army's orders?"
"You didn't even think of that?"
Fan Xiao was speechless.
How did this woman become a C-level player?
Did a secure copy sneak in?
"Uh... that..."
You've always been the one making the plans; I haven't really thought about it much... The woman with the low ponytail felt a little embarrassed.
To think that I'd become so dependent on a cannibalistic player... that's just outrageous!
"We're pretending to be ordinary people right now, and then we can conveniently fake our true strength later, right?"
Fan Xiao reminded him, "Who said we're not going to kill anyone? We just can't beat them, so we can only go toe-to-toe with ordinary villagers, understand?"
"What do you mean 50/50?" Nei Long said disdainfully, "Don't be fooled by my burly and strong physique. I'm all bark and no bite. An ordinary villager could probably beat me to the point of vomiting blood."
"Alas," Jinlian began to sigh, "You all say I'm just a weak woman who can't even kill a chicken, how could I possibly defeat the villagers? Isn't this making things difficult for me?"
"..." Fan Xiao was almost at his wit's end: "Anyway, don't be too fake."
After discussing how to deal with the murder, the group stopped talking and followed closely behind the burly knight in charge.
After about twenty minutes of travel, the group arrived at the outskirts of a fishing village not far from the sea.
From the outside, you can see many villagers busy at work.
As expected, this is Longxi Village.
Could it be that the distant horizon is the coast of Longxi...? Fan Xiao gazed into the distance and couldn't help but think.
"Do it!"
At this moment, the burly knight leading the group gave the order and stared intently at Fan Xiao and the others with his hawk-like gaze.
Having already discussed their plan, the players naturally didn't hesitate and headed straight for the village.
Suddenly, before they could take more than a few steps, a rustling sound suddenly rang out from the rainforest next to them.
Whoosh...—A large number of arrows flew out of the forest and shot towards the group.
*Thud*—Fan Xiao was struck in the chest by an arrow. He immediately clutched his chest with both hands, screamed in agony, and collapsed to the ground, rolling around and howling in pain.
Seeing this, Nei Long and the others quickly followed suit.
After protecting their vital points, arrows shot by ordinary people naturally cannot harm C-level players.
The players immediately put on an acting show, falling to the ground in increasingly dramatic and pitiful ways, their cries of agony echoing throughout the area.
They were acting, but the hundred-man army behind them was genuinely caught off guard by the arrows. Many of them had their armor pierced or were hit in parts not covered by their armor, falling to the ground howling in pain, while some died on the spot.
The surviving soldiers quickly raised their shields.
"kill!"
Just then, a loud shout came from the jungle.
Seven men burst out of the bushes and charged toward the army that had raised their shields.
Behind the seven men followed an army clad in standard black armor.
There was an ambush!
The seven people at the forefront were dressed in casual clothes of very different styles, clearly not from the military, and most likely players from Obsidian City.
They immediately spotted Fan Xiao and the others lying on the ground and identified the group of "Voldemort" players by their clothing.
The image of Fan Xiao and the others screaming and rolling around in agony was so powerful that it struck their minds, leaving them stunned on the spot.
Ah this...
Are arrows shot by ordinary people really that powerful?
Chapter 412 The True King and the Demon King Appear Simultaneously
In just a few seconds, the seven players from Obsidian City understood the situation—the Silver City players lying on the ground were just putting on an act, engaging in a passive strike.
Players who survive... or rather, who safely reach this battlefield, are naturally aware of the hidden rule: "Do not reveal your power in front of the dungeon's inhabitants."
So, the seven quickly regained their composure and rushed toward the fallen Fan Xiao and his nine companions, seemingly wanting to take advantage of their illness to kill them.
As for whether it's a genuine desire or a feigned one... Ideally, one should kill the person and inherit the number without revealing their power. If that's not possible, then one should cooperate with the other party and put on a show.
"Kill them!"
Running at the front was a tall, handsome young man.
He approached Fan Xiao, who was lying at the front, and, holding a dagger in his hand, stabbed directly at Fan Xiao's eye.
Fan Xiaozhan dodged the attack by shrinking back on the spot, then stood up and pulled out the arrow stuck in his chest... In fact, he had been holding the arrow in his hand the whole time, but because the tip was covered by his palm and because of the angle, it looked as if the arrow had been directly stuck in his chest.
After "pulling out" and throwing away the arrow, Fan Xiao gripped the short blade in his hand, revealing a pale but ruthless expression, and began to fight the handsome young man who had attacked him.
The two players' movements and speed were completely unbecoming of the normal level that a C-level player should perform at.
Clearly, they were working together to add drama to their own story, starting to act out the armies of Silver City and Obsidian City.
While symbolically brandishing his short blade, Fan Xiao said in a low voice, "Dude, you went too far just now. Did you really want to gouge my eyes out?"
"How is that possible? We're all C-level players. How could I possibly have hit you when I was moving so slowly?"
While exchanging blows with Fan Xiao, the handsome young man replied, "If you mind, I can let you cut me once, but don't cut too deep, just let me bleed a little."
"Really... You're really going all out for acting."
Without any hesitation, Fan Xiao slashed the other man's arm with his knife, leaving a wound about ten centimeters long.
The handsome young man immediately cooperated by letting out a few loud screams, his voice so shrill that it was unbelievable, and just by listening, one could almost feel the pain himself.
This acting is absolutely professional-level!
"Dude, you've gone too far!" the handsome young man said resentfully. "I asked you to make a slight cut, and you want to slash my entire arm?"
“That’s an exaggeration,” Van Xiao said, getting down to business: “Have you encountered the true King Caesar or the Dark Dimension over there?”
"I've encountered this before. There were three cannibalistic players having a party in the city, and King Caesar arrived quickly and killed all three of them with a single blow. King Caesar... his strength is terrifying!"
The handsome young man replied, "As for the Dark Space, I've never heard of it."
"Has anyone suddenly disappeared?" Fan Xiao asked.
"Yes, two people... wait!" The handsome young man suddenly realized, "They wouldn't have entered the dark space you mentioned, would they?"
“You got it right,” Fan Xiao said. “Would you like to cooperate to deal with Caesar the True King? I have a plan that is both feasible and has a high success rate.”
"Damn... are we playing the same game?" the handsome young man exclaimed in surprise. "It hasn't been that long, and you've already found a way to complete the second mission?"
"Why all the nonsense? Just tell me if you're going to do it or not."
"If it really exists, and the success rate is good, then of course we should give it a try."
"Alright. Let's keep acting. Once these two armies have finished fighting each other, we should be able to get some free time."
Fan Xiao reminded him, "At that time, I will tell you... no, I will tell you the detailed plan."
"can."
The handsome young man nodded and performed even more energetically.
The two fought their way to the edge of the rainforest, even wearing away the dead leaves under their feet.
Just then, an accident suddenly occurred.
"Uh……!"
"you……!?"
Two screams of shock and horror rang out.
Thump, thump... The two bodies fell to the ground and soon fell silent.
They were the two players in black uniforms.
Their opponent was a figure dressed in a hoodie and loose jeans. Although the outfit resembled that of a boy, a slender figure could be vaguely seen through the loose clothing. His hair and most of his face were covered by the front-buttoned hood. From the front, only his smooth chin could be seen under the hood. Judging from his figure and the whiteness of his skin, he should be a girl.
The girl held a delicate short sword in her hand, about forty centimeters long. Some bright red blood still remained on the blade, dripping down the sharp edge to the ground.
She slit the throats of the two players in black uniforms.
No one saw how she did it.
Even Fan Xiao, who had been paying close attention to everyone's movements, couldn't see it clearly.
Moreover... a C-rank player shouldn't die on the spot from just having their throat slit.
For a C-level player, having their throat and artery cut open is merely a minor wound.
C-level players already possess a certain degree of self-healing ability. Before the blood is completely lost, they can use healing potions to apply to the wounds to aid healing and quickly recover.
So... something's not right!
Could it be that the short sword... contains some kind of deadly poison that could instantly kill a C-level player?
And how exactly did this woman manage to carry out the attack?
The sudden turn of events left the players in Silver City and Obsidian City stunned.
Everyone was acting, but who would have thought that someone would actually... commit murder?
This... lacks martial ethics?
The situation did not allow for silence.
Including Fan Xiao, the players immediately returned to acting.
Fan Xiaochao, the handsome young man, asked in a low voice, "Who is she? So ruthless?"
"Don't ask me, I don't know him. This guy hasn't said a word to us since he entered the dungeon."
The handsome young man's tone was tinged with fear: "We originally had 15 players. Three of them, the cannibals, were killed by the true king Caesar. One human player and one demi-human player suddenly disappeared, probably entering the dark space you mentioned. The last three human players wearing black uniforms... were all killed by this woman when the dungeon first opened."
"The way she killed those three people... well, it was very bizarre. I didn't see how she did it at all."
"Now she's taken down two more uniformed players... I guess she must have a grudge against these uniformed players."
“The players in uniform are members of the law enforcement team from Base A1 in Zone 019,” Fan Xiao explained. “They were drawn into this instance while arresting a criminal, and that hood... it should be the criminal they were trying to capture.”
"No wonder..." the handsome young man sighed, "They really do have a grudge! They're really unlucky to have messed with such a ruthless person!"
With items now restricted, whoever has the stronger talent basically has a huge advantage.
Having psionic abilities would give you an even greater advantage.
And this hooded girl... should have very powerful talent, or rather, psychic power, otherwise she couldn't have launched such a bizarre attack.
This guy killed two players right under the noses of two armies, yet neither side noticed a single flaw... Even Fan Xiao felt a little uneasy.
Fortunately, after killing two players in uniform, the hooded girl did not kill any other players.
She approached Jinlian, who was lying on the ground pretending to be seriously injured, and attacked her with the speed of an ordinary person.
Jinlian was startled and her nerves tensed up.
She only breathed a sigh of relief after realizing that the other party had no intention of killing her, and then she started acting along with them.
Fan Xiao glanced discreetly at the back of the hooded girl's right hand.
The number above has changed from "7" to "21".
"You bunch of useless trash! Useless trash!!"
