Chapter 169 Danger Game (2)
Chapter 169 Danger Game (2)
Over the past month, Hundred Beasts City had become less peaceful.
Many people had received an inexplicable ball and received even more inexplicable quests under the inexplicable circumstances.
Those missions didn't seem to be related to each other, but the rewards were often exceptionally generous.
Some people didn't care and directly threw away the ball. Others started to get excited after tasting the sweetness and started to do one task after another.
Most of the time, they do their own tasks after receiving a mission, but sometimes some of their tasks will overlap. After completing the mission together, they will be rewarded collectively.
As time passed, some people began to feel bad because the difficulty of those missions would always increase! Until it exceeds their capabilities.
When they were about to give up, they were told not to quit the game!
At this time, some inexplicable people would come out and execute these "defectors".
All of a sudden, all the "game members" in Hundred Beasts City who had already involved in a difficult task started to panic, because they knew how severe the punishment was. Many of the "game members" had even personally executed some defectors.
It was at this moment that dawn appeared, saving the terrified members of the game from despair.
"The game will last for 40 days. After 40 days, it will be over completely. Those who survive will receive a secret manual of local body-refining techniques."
This reward naturally made countless game members go crazy, but what made them even crazier was that they knew where the end of the game was. As long as they persisted, they would be able to live to the end!
When the game progressed to the thirty-fifth day, only the last five days, when a large number of game members were overjoyed, they began to receive some very special quests.
At first, nearly 20% of the quest players received overlapping quests, then 30% received overlapping quests, and then 40%, or even 50%!
These overlapping quests all pointed at the same person: the black-clothed man.
From then on, whoever received an overlapping mission, the eagle's eyes in their hands began to ring at a high frequency. Almost every time, they would tell the black-clothed man where he was at this moment.
Meng Yuan was a second level Origin Returning martial artist, and he believed that his strength was extraordinary, so he could definitely survive until the end.
On this day, he received another mission from the black-clothed man, the contents of the mission, monitoring the black-clothed man, and executing the mission player who tried to escape.
Meng Yuan was an expert in sneak attacks and assassinations. He played with Eagle's Eye and sneered, "That black-clothed man is very close to me. He really has a unique advantage."
Following the mission prompt, Meng Yuan arrived at South City.
He arrive at that destination of the mission, found a building, hid in it, and peeped through the window into the street.
Today, the street was exceptionally deserted. There was a man dressed in black standing on the street. On the other side of the street, a man dressed in yellow robes was sitting in a pool of blood.
"It's him?" Meng Yuan nodded silently and finally saw the mysterious black-clothed man for the first time!
"I don't know how powerful this kid is. He actually alerted nearly 50% of the game players. Everyone is revolving around him."
Meng Yuan was very curious and continued to watch.
"You think I'll kill you?" On the street, the black-clothed man lowered his head and was talking to the yellow-robed man.
The yellow-robed man coughed out a large mouthful of blood and smiled dispiritedly, "I didn't expect … cough, you actually … can defeat me."
"Kill me."
The black-clothed man said in a deep voice, "I said before, from the moment you drew your saber, this matter will not end!"
"Are you all begging for death? I won't let you guys get what you want."
After saying that, the black-clothed man left unrestrained, his figure gradually disappearing into the night.
Meng Yuan nodded silently. After the black-clothed man completely disappeared, he jumped into the street through the window and landed beside the yellow-robed man.
"Sorry, friend." Meng Yuan pulled out a snowy dagger and said to the yellow-robed man, "You know, I can't help but kill you for the mission."
The yellow-robed man was surprised at first, but then he had a calm expression that accepted the reality, "Let's do it."
Meng Yuan nodded and stabbed the yellow-robed man's heart with the dagger in his hand.
Almost at the same time, Meng Yuan's dagger was about to pierce through the yellow-robed man's flesh and blood. A huge force suddenly came and fiercely kicked Meng Yuan's leg.
This kick directly kicked Meng Yuan to the ground on one knee. He hurriedly turned his head and saw that, his pupils immediately contracted. "You … Didn't you leave?"
Behind him was the black-clothed man who was looking down at him with an indifferent gaze.
"If I'm not mistaken, you should have an eagle eye on you." The black-clothed man said indifferently.
Meng Yuan was greatly shocked. He shook his right hand and wrapped his Yuan Qi around the dagger as he flew towards the black-clothed man. At the same time, Meng Yuan turned around and fled without any reluctance to fight.
However, the strength of the black-clothed man was a bit unimaginable!
The dagger that Meng Yuan threw out was a mid-grade Spirit Grade martial skill, the Lifeseizing Flying Leaf Hand.
However, such a powerful martial skill was sent flying by the black-clothed man with a slap. Immediately after, the black-clothed man bullied Meng Yuan with his left hand supporting his chin and his right hand grabbing Meng Yuan's head.
With a forceful twist, Meng Yuan's heart stopped beating as his eyes turned deathly gray with an expression of disbelief.
"Why did you save me?" The yellow-robed man leaned against the corner and asked with a wretched smile, "Don't tell me you sympathize with me."
The black-clothed man said indifferently, "From the tone of your words, you should know more about the mastermind behind this matter."
"You can't save me." The yellow-robed man said miserably, "You can save me once, but you can't save me for the rest of my life."
The black-clothed man squatted down and put his face close to the yellow-robed man's face. He whispered, "I never intended to save you."
"I'm afraid you will definitely die, but I was just thinking, are you really willing to be played with by others like this?"
"Even if you die, you never thought of resisting?"
"Tell me everything you know. Perhaps I can avenge you."
The yellow-robed man was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly, "I like your arrogance! Although I don't think you can really defeat them, … even if it's just disgusting, it's worth it!"
"Brat, come over here. I have something to say to you."
The black-clothed man lowered his head and quietly listened to the yellow-robed man.
At this moment, on the other side of the street, in a building opposite the building where Meng Yuan had been hiding.
A man next to the window looked at the black-clothed man and the yellow-robed man whispering to each other. He turned around and slowly squatted down, opening the Eagle's Eye in his hand. "Two game players have failed. One died, the other betrayed."
"Request new mission instructions."
As he spoke, the man turned around and prepared to continue observing the changes in the streets.
But when he turned around, he saw a person squatting on the windowsill! That person was looking at him with an indifferent expression.
"You" The man's entire body trembled.
The one squatting on the windowsill was the black-clothed man! At this moment, the black-clothed man said indifferently, "You don't have to wait for the next mission instruction."
As he spoke, Yuan Qi flashed in the black-clothed man's hand. The man felt his gaze suddenly turn upside down, and his head rolled on the ground.
The black-clothed man gently jumped down from the windowsill and took the eagle's eye from the man's hand. "It's time to talk …" he said.
