Chapter 817: Delivered Personally to Su Yang! You Go First!

Cai Yan stared at the Springhead and asked, "What happened?"

"She actually had a Zombie ready behind her; this woman isn't simple—if you encounter her, be extremely careful," Ji Huai reminded.

"I understand the principle of being careful when steering the Ten‑Thousand‑Year Ship, but the gap between her and me is huge, her Innate Talent lacks aggressiveness; are you afraid I'll lose?" Cai Yan said with a hint of disdain in her eyes.

"Never underestimate any opponent, even if she is far Weak," Ji Huai instructed.

"I estimate… she probably can't even defeat Zuo Hang, so I don't need to act," Cai Yan said lightly.

It's not that I'm overly self‑esteemed; rather, I have a clear perception of my own strength.

If placed outside, he wouldn't even dare to cast a glance at Su Qi.

But if it's here…

Sorry, killing you is like killing a chicken.

Ji Huai's Reminder is simply that he's worried she has a backhand.

Reasonable, but even so, it won't add much to the odds of victory.

After all, in this fist‑talking game, no one is less clever than another.

Moreover, outside there are also the Trap he meticulously set.

Even if Su Qi can dodge the first stage, she cannot escape the second.

"Why must we kill her?" Cai Yan couldn't help but be curious.

"I want to kill Su Yang, and she wants to protect Su Yang; what do you think?" Ji Huai said.

"You two are fundamentally opposite directions; cooperation is impossible," Cai Yan shook her head.

"No, she's only temporarily not killing Su Yang; she and I are waiting for the same timing, at least for this stretch we can walk together," Ji Huai said slowly.

"The Permanent Seat at Round Table Conference opportunity?"

"She comes from the Taboo, selecting hunting targets only among this kind of Top Player," Ji Huai nodded slightly and continued:

"Our goals clash; should I keep her?"

"I see…" Cai Yan nodded in understanding.

It seems this is a competition.

Rather than a purely hostile relationship.

What is called cooperation is merely an alternative form of submission.

With the Forbidden Organization's pride, how could it easily bow and submit?

Ji Huai knows this well; he is conducting a compliance test.

Similarly, this is also a probe.

Probing whether, after she sees Ji Huai's Hole Cards, she has any other backhand.

"So the thing you're searching for…" Cai Yan tilted her head slightly, her gaze never shifting.

"Yes." Ji Huai instinctively tried to adjust his glasses, but his helmet blocked him.

"I will turn this rare Hidden Achievement…"

"…into Su Yang's hands personally!"

…

Inside the Spaceship.

Su Yang and Lu Zhiwei moved close to the Screen, staring at the two opponents.

"Why haven't they acted yet? It's been several minutes." Lu Zhiwei was anxious like an ant on a hot pan.

"Perhaps they're negotiating?" Su Yang guessed.

"Do you think they might have been a team from the start?" Lu Zhiwei suddenly wondered.

"Possible."

"Then aren't we in great danger?"

"What do you mean?"

"Think about it, Ji Huai arbitrarily recruited several helpers, now there's also Su Qi, who can strike the Building Body itself, and the latter can also Mind Read…"

Hearing her explain that way, Su Yang truly felt it was an unsolvable deadlock.

The reason is none other than that, facing this situation, if another player were in our place, they'd have no idea how they'd be killed.

For some reason, Su Yang's Brain suddenly recalled Lin Yang's face.

"If he came… how long could he hold out?"

Actually, if it's a Copy, perhaps there would be unexpected effects.

But only in the later stage.

In the early stage, encountering a Xiao Hei alone would instantly be crushed.

No room for retaliation.

"Hey, they're moving!" Lu Zhiwei hurriedly nudged Su Yang.

Looking in that direction, they saw Su Qi returning the way she came at full force.

And Ji Huai still stood in place.

"What's happening?" Su Yang's curiosity sparked instantly.

"It seems… Su Qi ran away?" Lu Zhiwei's face showed puzzlement.

From the speed, it was clearly a flight.

If it were a discussion among friends or partners, why such haste?

"The two broke off negotiations?" Su Yang mused.

Soon after, Ji Huai moved.

He arrived at a passageway, and then the Walkie‑talkie suddenly sounded.

"Xiao Liu, Su Qi …"

"Shasha—"

Su Yang just lifted the Walkie‑talkie to hear what he was saying, but a harsh mechanical noise came through.

"Ji Da Ge, hello?"

"Hello, can you hear me?"

"I didn't catch that just now, say it again!"

"Hello?!"

Messages kept coming, yet none received a reply.

Su Yang looked at the Walkie‑talkie with a puzzled expression, "Could it be out of battery?"

Lu Zhiwei said, "Probably, this thing consumes far more power than a Flashlight; I guess the chubby Liu over there talked with it for a long time."

Encountering such a sudden situation, one can only say the heavens are not being kind.

"It's a pity, I originally wanted to gather more Intelligence," Su Yang said, showing slight disappointment.

"That's okay, at least we know he's looking for something important, right?" Lu Zhiwei comforted.

"After this trip, it'll probably be hard to play this kind of role again next time," Su Yang said softly.

He now finally understood why no Monsters were encountered on today's run.

Ji Huai's carpet‑style search method is likely to wipe out all Monsters that could be killed.

And those that can't be killed are also restrained and attracted by him.

It does, however, indirectly draw firepower for other players.

Right now he's very curious about what exactly this thing Ji Huai is looking for looks like.

"We need to find a chance to 'question' the Building Body," a sharp gleam flashed in Su Yang's eyes.

At that moment, a sour‑tooth‑making sound came from outside the Spaceship.

"Creek—"

Su Yang and Lu Zhiwei exchanged a glance, then hurried to the cabin door to look outside.

They saw a huge creature, entirely blood‑red, crawling out from the ground.

Its eye‑catching, fang‑filled massive mouth was especially striking.

"Roar!"

Blind Dog?!

Lu Zhiwei was about to speak, but upon seeing that, immediately swallowed the words at the tip of her mouth.

You can't joke in front of this beast.

Although the Spaceship interior is a Safe Zone.

But that's a Safe Zone only for the players.

It doesn't say Monsters can't enter and kill.

The two tiptoed back in tacit understanding, fearing any sound.

Su Yang, who hadn't planned to go to the Second Palace Entry, was further dissuaded by the scene.

The Blind Dog was near the Iron Frame Staircase.

Whoever wants to go, go.

…

At the Building Body entrance.

Two Silhouettes emerged one after another.

From their bulging pockets, it's clear this haul was abundant.

Only the one walking ahead looked a bit disheveled.

The Work Uniform had several holes, the cold wind pierced in, making him shiver.

"Walk faster, don't make me push; I don't like pushing people!"

Lin Jin shoved hard, Qin Yu Zhou staggered, nearly falling to the ground.

A hint of malice flashed in the latter's eyes, but he didn't act.

Lin Jin, seeing his sluggish movements, read his mood and sneered, "What, you don't accept?"

"What do you want me to do?" Qin Yu Zhou asked hoarsely.

"It's simple: go down the stairs, return to the Spaceship," Lin Jin said.

"Just like that?"

"Just like that!"

"Of course, the order must be sequential—" Lin Jin turned his tone, stretched out his tongue and licked his nose,

"You go ahead!"
