Chapter 488: The First Battle of the Distance-Free Kill

~8 min read 1,488 words

Mo Xi and the Afro Woman didn't have time to take out the steel needles on their bodies, and hurriedly came to Zhang Chi. At this moment, due to excessive blood loss, Zhang Chi's face had already become deathly pale.

Zhang Chi lay on the ground and tossed aside the Liar-Slayer in his hand. The two women carefully helped him take out the steel needles, disinfected them, and simply bandaged him.

Zhang Chi looked at the unremoved steel needles on their bodies, yet they bandaged him first. A trace of struggle flashed in his eyes. In Hell, the most taboo thing was the true revelation of feelings.

Once detected by an opponent, the people you care about will become your weakness.

He tried to struggle to get up, but was held down by Mo Xi's hand. Her eyes were bright and sincere.

Zhang Chi couldn't help but recall that in the One-Star Instance when he was deceived into a lie, it was Mo Xi who established a Future Lie, and through gaming, killed all the other players so that he could survive.

In the Two-Star Instance 【Prisoners of the Fire Ground】, when he was trapped in a sea of fire, it was also Mo Xi who braved the raging flames to rescue him.

Every time she saved him, she had this kind of clear look in her eyes, as if saying:

【Don't worry, I'm here.】

She returned to Zhang Chi's side. Her small frame supported Zhang Chi's tall body, stubbornly walking forward step by step.

"Captain, I..." Zhang Chi's voice choked up a bit.

"Shut up, I said before, as long as you still have breath, I won't abandon you in a cold Secret Room."

Zhang Chi cried like a child.

Chen Ran and Jiang Zhe exchanged a glance, both smiling bitterly endlessly: We seem to have become unpardonably evil great demons.

Fourth-floor doorway.

Mo Xi's trio sat down. This sit would probably take a long time, after all, they had to wait for the wounds on Zhang Chi's body to ease a bit. Chen Ran and Jiang Zhe didn't care though; anyway, there was plenty of time in this world, resting a bit longer wouldn't matter.

Time rewinded to an hour ago.

Lin Xuan, Qiu Yinong, and Chen Ran set out from the bar to collect cards everywhere.

Lin Xuan and Qiu Yinong looked at Chen Ran skipping ahead, their eyes twitching, feeling an ominous premonition in their hearts.

"It's not good for you to be so conspicuous like this. As Hell players, we must be steady."

Chen Ran glanced at him. Only to see Lin Xuan wearing a suit and tie, shiny leather shoes, with a vest inside, and a cigar dangling from his mouth, looking extremely flashy, rendering Chen Ran speechless for a moment.

Just who is being conspicuous?

Not long after, Chen Ran stopped, pointing ahead and said: "If my guess is right, that should be the decryption point of this area."

The two: "..."

Nonsense, they all saw a team walk into the building.

Soon, the trio came to the building.

Judging from their standing positions, the ten people inside were two teams, and neither showed any intention of leaving.

This indicated that these two teams were either both top-tier Four-Star teams that could arm wrestle with Five-Star teams, or both were Five-Star teams and neither feared the other.

While the trio sized up the ten people, the ten people were also sizing up the trio.

At most, these three were just three Five-Star players, but facing two systematized teams, they actually had no intention of leaving. For a moment, they also couldn't ascertain the strength of the three.

Seeing this, a trace of struggle flashed in Chen Ran's eyes.

He turned his head and said to the two: "Remember your promise. After leaving this world, you must take good care of my younger sister."

Having said that, he suddenly turned his head, looking fiercely at the ten people opposite, and without warning initiated the Distance-Free Technique against one of them.

That Five-Star player was pulled into Distance-Free without warning. He was startled at first, but then sneered: 【You are seeking death】

In the next moment, both sides' Worlds of the Heart crushed towards each other, beginning a bombardment.

But gradually, the Five-Star player discovered in horror that the handsome youth opposite erupted with a ball of red light. The appearance of the red light caused the originally disadvantaged youth to instantly crush over, with a speed so fast it left one speechless.

Crack, crack, crack.

The Five-Star player's white world actually shattered little by little.

'Impossible!'

Frightened, he hurriedly broke free from Distance-Free, and his consciousness returned to his body. Bursts of stinging pain came from his head; if he hadn't broken away in time, he would probably be on the ground by now.

He couldn't help but look at Chen Ran in horror.

But, in the next moment...

"Liar-Slayer: Wheel of Time!"

Distance-Free!

Chen Ran without warning used Distance-Free on one of the Five-Star players among the ten.

At the same time, Qiu Yinong sized up the other nine people, to be exact, she looked at the Id Tier player she had discovered earlier.

Strangely, that Id Tier player had no reaction at all, as if Distance-Free could not immunize against the memory loss of the Wheel of Time.

'Two possibilities. One, he didn't use his Id Skill in advance.'

'Two, the person killed by Distance-Free was not his teammate, and he is watching coldly from the sidelines, or observing our skills.'

After being upgraded, Qiu Yinong's Wheel of Time was very difficult to detect anymore, unlike before when they first encountered Three-Star players and were easily pointed out by them. Of course, there was another reason: in each Wheel of Time, no one died, making it even more difficult for other players to notice.

Not knowing how many times it repeated.

"Liar-Slayer: Wheel of Time!"

"Retract!"

Instantly, all five people of an entire team opposite fell to the ground, foaming at the mouth.

Chen Ran also fell to the ground, his body twitching.

The memories of the remaining four people among the other five were also restored at this moment, instantly becoming utterly horrified.

Because, in their returned memories, the handsome youth opposite had also tried to use Distance-Free on their team, but was warned by their Id Tier teammate, allowing them to escape a disaster.

Lin Xuan drew his Liar-Slayer and walked towards the fallen five people with a smile, murmuring: "Not bad, a dispensable Slave can actually drag five people to perish together."

Having said that, he crouched down and deceived them into their Common-Sense Lies one by one.

"You lied."

"You lied."

"You lied."

"You lied."

"You lied."

Five shots, five people killed. Lin Xuan picked up the Point Cards on the ground, his smile growing wider.

"Haha, there's actually 900 Points!"

Lin Xuan returned to Chen Ran and crouched down.

"Don't worry, my previous promise to take good care of your sister, I will do as I say, but your value far exceeded my expectations." He did not choose to deceive Chen Ran into a Common-Sense Lie.

"Still not leaving?" Lin Xuan took a puff of his cigar and looked at the five people opposite with a smile.

The five didn't speak.

Lin Xuan and Qiu Yinong didn't pay attention to them anymore either, but strolled leisurely on the first floor, seemingly sizing up the scene on the first floor.

Among the five people opposite, one looked at the teammate with the Id Tier skill. The latter closed his eyes for a while, opened them again, and slowly said to the four people: "There is no Virtual Overlay or virtual people here."

Hearing this, that person looked at Chen Ran unconscious on the ground, walked forward, and crouched down:

"What is 1+1?"

"I... I..." Chen Ran murmured, seemingly struggling.

"What is 1+1?"

"I don't know."

Hearing this, that person instantly sneered and drew his gun, aiming at Chen Ran. Since there was no Virtual Overlay here, and the person before him had a Liar-Slayer at his waist, and also spoke a Common-Sense Lie.

"You..."

Just as he was about to speak the command, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. He looked at Lin Xuan and Qiu Yinong who were pretending to size up the environment: "Your acting skills are a bit exaggerated."

Having said that, he put away his gun and glanced at Chen Ran on the ground: "Get up."

"That team just now, only the captain was a Five-Star, the other teammates were all Four-Star. Their Combo Skill is pretty good, comparable to an ordinary Five-Star team. We observed for a long time, they were equivalent to the prey we had our eyes on, yet you got there first. Tell me, how do you plan to compensate for our loss?"
