Chapter 518

~5 min read 953 words

It could only rely on pure luck.

But Sawada Iko had concerns.

"Follow us, and you will have a possibility of living."

"Why do you want to do this?"

Fujibayashi Kyou stared at Lin Ye.

Lin Ye's abnormal behavior aroused her vigilance.

"Do I need a reason to want you to live?"

"Are we two new players following you not adding trouble to you, are we burdens?"

Lin Ye knew Fujibayashi Kyou would have this worry, "So, that's why I need you. If we really encounter an Eerie body that can't be solved, you two will be my new meat shields."

Since Fujibayashi Kyou suspected him, Lin Ye gave her this reason directly.

He knew deeply that his denial wouldn't make the girl believe him, and he couldn't provide evidence either.

When Fujibayashi Kyou had this worry, this idea had already taken root in her heart. To eradicate this idea, one could only use facts to speak.

Silence spread.

Fujibayashi Kyou and Sawada Iko both thought Lin Ye would at least find a few better excuses and reasons, but it turned out he directly admitted he intended to use them as meat shields.

"Now Eerie bodies have infection situations. Humans die because of Eerie body attacks, and after death, they will mutate into new Eerie bodies. Moreover, Eerie bodies cannot be killed."

Lin Ye walked to the little girl Eerie body and smashed down with the handgun he was holding.

'Thump...'

A sound of bone cracking.

"Even if a bullet hits the vital parts of a human, the Eerie body will not die completely, but will become active again."

After some time, this Eerie body would also be captured and become a member of the hunting Eerie bodies again.

"You who can't even solve one Eerie body, still think you can survive under the hunting of multiple Eerie bodies?"

No.

Fujibayashi Kyou didn't have this confidence.

Sawada Iko didn't have this confidence either.

"Of course, if you insist on leaving, I'll see you off."

"Hmm?"

Fujibayashi Kyou was stunned.

"I want to know if you will mutate into Eerie bodies after I kill you. I think you shouldn't mutate. This way, it can be considered reducing the pressure for us in the last hour."

A naked threat!

Either agree, or die.

A trace of anger appeared in Fujibayashi Kyou's eyes.

She once wanted to take action to escape, but... she deeply understood that she was simply no match for Lin Ye.

"I..."

"We'll follow you."

Sawada Iko made a decision.

She couldn't afford to gamble.

Since there were no other better choices, she accepted reality.

"A very wise choice. By the way, everything I just said was a joke."

A joke?

Which sentence was the joke?

However, in Fujibayashi Kyou's view, no matter what this veteran player Zero said, her vigilance toward him only increased, not decreased.

This was not something that could be completely eliminated by a single rescue act.

"Lilith, you are responsible for protecting these two. Don't let them have any accidents."

"Sigh, hey, hey, hey! That's too much. Making me protect them both, I'm so sad."

Lilith feigned a sorrowful expression.

"But if we really encounter danger and need to abandon one, who do you want me to abandon?"

As soon as this question came out, not to mention the parties involved, Fujibayashi Kyou and Sawada Iko, Hoshino Ai was also full of curiosity. She also wanted to know what choice Lin Ye would make.

"That's a very simple matter."

Lin Ye turned sideways, his gaze meeting Lilith's from the corner of his eye. "Choose you."

"Ah! We've been fighting side by side for so long!"

"Have we?"

"Woo, Big Brother, too bad. Lilith won't be friends with Big Brother anymore."

Lilith whimpered to express her dissatisfaction.

But whether she was truly unhappy or falsely unhappy, only she herself knew.

At this moment,

a cry for help rang out in the distance again.

"You stay here, I'll go rescue."

At this moment,

looking at Lin Ye's back as he went to save people, Fujibayashi Kyou once had the thought that Lin Ye was worth trusting.

Even if it was to reduce the number of 'Eerie bodies', at least this veteran player was truly saving people in a down-to-earth way.

Five minutes later,

the group walked on the road back to the Experimental Center lobby.

The number of people also increased.

Along the way, many players also actively joined the team.

Finally,

the number of people in Lin Ye's team reached eight.

The pointer of time finally reached the three-hour node.

"Zzz..."

A sound of current flowing.

The broadcast rang out.

At every hour node, the Eerie dungeon would provide certain information and intelligence support.

【Research... zzz... discovered,】

【Eerie experimental bodies have... zzz... command and control capabilities over Eerie infected bodies,】

【It will share... senses.】

【The material storage room has already... all... un...】

【Please hold on, hold on until the support personnel arrive,】

【The last hour... please be sure to...】

The intermittent words quickly formed a shocking piece of information.

Eerie experimental bodies have command and control capabilities over infected bodies.

This is equivalent to Eerie bodies being able to fight in coordination.

This difficulty increase is not just a little bit.

If the eight people on his side were all veteran players with weapons, Lin Ye felt it wouldn't be impossible to fight, but now, besides him, only Lilith was useful, as well as the Paladin and Jack who hadn't met up yet.

"Calm down,"

"Don't be anxious,"

"Everyone keep quiet."

Lilith's stature truly had no deterrent power.

Lin Ye held the gun, and facing the black, hollow muzzle, several new players all became obedient. ===== CHAPTER 519 =====
