Chapter 226: Will There Still Be?

【Ge Wudi】: You murderers! How dare you be so arrogant, discussing how to kill people in the regional channel? If everyone were like you, who could still survive?!

No need for Cheng Shuili and a few others to step forward; enthusiastic netizens will naturally retort.

"What a thick face you have!"

"What are you pretending? Don't you know how high the death rate is in normal instances? After using this card, you surely hope the instance difficulty goes up a bit, right? After all, the more people fail, the more loot you get! Especially those big shots you picked—you're practically wishing they'd die in the instance, aren't you?"

"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you—didn't you learn that in elementary school? Wu Ya and the others are treating you the way you treat everyone; why can't you stand it?"

"Yeah, why can't he accept it?"

"His mind is full of taking advantage of others; suffering even a small loss feels like losing his life..."

"To be honest, Cheng Shuili really thinks that people like this dying early would only benefit those still alive."

"Card, card... rest day..."

"Assassins shouldn't have holidays!"

"However, from Su Rui you can tell the system is absolutely impartial; probably today everything is taking a day off."

"Including the monsters lurking in the supply crates."

"Thinking about it, it's kind of strange—normally they fight to the death on sight, but today they're also resting on the same day."

"Her thoughts had just wandered off when she was pulled back by an @."

【Ge Wudi】: @Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji, I can't do anything about those people—aren't you the slightest bit afraid? If I spoke about that thing in your hand, you'd know how many would envy you. I give you two choices: either apologize now and guarantee my safety, or I'll reveal your reward; before such huge profits, even if you're number one, what does it matter? Endless people will come after you, and you'll become the target of everyone!

"Whoa! Threat issued! Threatening Wu Ya—how exciting!"

"Did you avoid the building? Look clearly—you didn't @ a cat or dog, that's Wu Ya!"

"No discriminating against cats and dogs!"

"Is that the point?"

"I'm also curious what reward Wu Ya Dalao actually got."

"I'm curious too. Wu Ya Dalao surely won't chicken out—let him speak! Let him speak!"

Cheng Shuili lifted her eyelids, saw clearly what the person said, then lowered them again.

"Go ahead and say it."

"Can she still be afraid of this?"

"Ge Wudi's words seem fine at first glance, but anyone with a brain, upon closer thought, will see they're full of holes."

"People in the regional channel have already started questioning."

"@Ge Wudi, did you get your brain caught in a door? Threatening number one? Do you think everyone else is as brainless as you and would go to their deaths?"

"Laughable, still talking about being the target of everyone, spouting petty phrases! Hahaha! But Wu Ya Dalao has long been everyone's target—the question is, who dares to move against him?"

"@Ge Wudi, your logic is truly touching. What difference does it make whether Wu Ya's wealth goes up or not? Anyway, it's a number we all look up to. Just like a rich person—whether his assets are one million or two million, he's still a millionaire!"

"Surely no one really thinks this could threaten Wu Ya? Let me explain: his meaning is that after he exposes the reward, everyone will keep attacking Wu Ya out of envy. Really funny—you mean I'd become so jealous of Wu Ya's sudden wealth surge that I'd lose all reason and use the Designated Player Duel Card on him?"

"Is that a duel card? Isn't it a suicide card?"

"What suicide card? It's clearly a full-service funeral card."

"Exactly, if you can't beat him, forget it—Wu Ya's nasty temper means even your ashes will be scattered!"

"Wu Ya still seems terrifying to me; to this day I dare not send any message to his private chat."

Cheng Shuili: "......"

"The situation's development seems a bit strange."

"But no matter what, one thing is certain: this clown Ge Wudi is about to have his defenses broken."

【Ge Wudi】: @Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji, speak!

Cheng Shuili lazily leaned on the bed, her fingertips idly swiping the virtual screen.

Upon seeing that final @, she snorted and slowly typed a reply:

【Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji】: Keep talking, I'm watching.

After sending that, she added the system's built-in smiley, that official grin that makes people furious.

The regional channel instantly exploded:

"It appeared! Wu Ya-style mockery! Screenshot, screenshot! Rarely seen, yet no direct scolding!"

"That expression with those words—low damage, extremely high insult! Hahaha!"

"Huh? No scolding? I was saying I could learn some insult techniques."

"Maybe he doesn't want to quarrel with a dying person."

"Not quarreling? I'd believe it for a few other big shots, but this is Wu Ya—I always feel he's hiding some nasty trick."

"I feel the same, hahaha—though I've never exchanged a word with Wu Ya Dalao, I already understand him well; how is this not a charm of being number one?"

Cheng Shuili: "......"

"She certainly hasn't!"

"She answered like that just because she knows it'll make the other person half-dead with anger—more effective than outright scolding."

"Ge Wudi was obviously enraged by this attitude; his message practically burst out instantly:"

【Ge Wudi】: Good! Great! Your reward...

"His message was sent just like that."

"??? Speak half, life halved!"

"He chickened out! Absolutely chickened out—hahaha, just now he was pretty good at pretending!"

"@Ge Wudi, come on, speak! We're all waiting!"

"Hahahaha, today really let me see a big joke! Thanks to Wu Ya Dalao! Thanks to the rest day!"

"Ge Wudi didn't not want to send it; rather, at the moment he was about to send, his brain suddenly reconnected."

He realized at that moment that this piece of news was just like a hostage in the hands of the bandits.

As long as the hostage is alive, the bandits have a chance to survive.

And the hostage... that is this piece of news; if it were sent out just like that, he would surely die tomorrow.

Ge Wudi trembled again, a physiological tremor of fear.

Although the temperature is now very comfortable and he is wearing long sleeves, which should not make him feel cold, he nevertheless feels a chill all over his body.

He must survive.

It doesn't matter if he fails this time; there will be another chance! If that fails, there will be yet another!

But once he dies, there will be nothing left.

He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his lips began to tremble.

If he goes now to beg Wu Ya for mercy, is there still a way to survive?

Will there be?

He thought about it, feeling a bit reluctant to lose face, hesitated for a moment, then finally opened Cheng Shuili's private chat, when the area channel suddenly popped up with several @ mentions.
