Chapter 945: Trap? Just walk through it

Trap? Just walk through it

At the same time Lin Xi learned of the enemy situation, a tamed beast also appeared in the vision of Cheng Shi and Chun, and it was a dense forest tree rabbit.

Perhaps feeling that a tamed beast that had traveled together before was easier to win the closeness of people, Du Qiyu once again drove a rabbit to stop in advance on the only way for the two.

As soon as the rabbit appeared, it knew that it had attracted the attention of these two masters. However, what it didn't expect was that after Cheng Shi glanced at it, he actually changed direction and ran a small circle, taking Chun around it.

This made Du Qiyu, who was always ready to speak and report, freeze in place. He punched the ground with a gloomy face, and then had to drive another bird tamed beast to chase after Cheng Shi, because this was the only opportunity he could win in this conflict, an opportunity to escape in front of the 【Decay】 God-Chosen.

Lin Xi did something to him!

This wasn't what Lin Xi said, but what he guessed himself.

When he saw Lin Xi's posture of not being afraid of his betrayal at all, he knew that Lin Xi must have used some invisible 【Decay】 secret technique on him. Otherwise, in this game where even friends couldn't be trusted, why would he not be afraid of his betrayal?

You must know that his true body had never approached the other party, but it was precisely this point that made Du Qiyu dare not disappear directly in this conflict, because he was afraid that some means he didn't know had already been used on him by Lin Xi.

Only by tying a person's neck can one make people obedient. Du Qiyu didn't understand anything else, but he had a deep understanding of this point.

The "cooperation" created by a chance encounter had become a shackle on his neck that was difficult to untie. That's why he panicked and began to secretly report to Cheng Shi, hoping that Xiao Shi and Chun could kill this 【Decay】 God-Chosen.

Of course, if both sides could suffer both losses, that would be even better. If not, he was "willing" to temporarily lean toward Xiao Shi.

Although Xiao Shi was not a character to be trifled with now, compared to the vicious Lin Xi, at least he and Xiao Shi didn't have any life-and-death hatred.

Although that deception caused Xiao Shi to lose the opportunity to "move toward success," didn't he also meet a great father?

This was what he said himself. Think carefully, couldn't there be his own credit in this!?

Besides, everyone didn't face each other directly in the previous battle on the highland. As long as he insisted on the identity of Zhao Xiaogua and didn't let go, maybe there was still a chance to muddle through?

Being a friend to the disgusting Xiao Shi was better than being a "tamed beast" to Lin Xi who wanted people's lives, right?

What if Xiao Shi really didn't recognize him?

At this time, Du Qiyu's state was completely different from when he started. He no longer resented Cheng Shi for not recognizing him, but prayed that the other party would never recognize him.

And so, in this contradictory anxiety, a bird circling in the sky quickly swooped down toward the two running people, using chirps to point out the direction of the attack for them.

"Lin Xi is under a withered tree in the mountain shade forest in the west. If you go from this direction, you will step into the plague trap he set directly in front.

Detour, detour quickly!

Descend quickly from the other side of the highland, he hasn't had time to set up means there yet."

Listening to the chirping of the birds, Cheng Shi sneered in his heart, but on the surface, he was extremely pleasantly surprised: "Agua? Why are you here? Are you here to help us?"

"..."

This extremely fake enthusiasm made Du Qiyu feel a wave of nausea, and also made him feel a trace of fear, because as long as Xiao Shi didn't want to target him, the other party would never perform this disgusting appearance at this moment.

Such a hypocritical posture could only mean that Xiao Shi had long regarded him as one of the enemies.

But I was willing to treat you as a friend again, why do you still act in front of me!?

Du Qiyu was angry. He seemed to be easily angry, but the situation forced him to respond quickly to all this. So, between dignity and survival, he gritted his teeth and chose the latter, controlling the bird to approach Cheng Shi again, and chirped in a "sad" voice:

"Xiao Shi, you recognized me, right?"

The smile on Cheng Shi's face became even brighter: "Of course I recognized you, Agua!"

"Fuck!" Du Qiyu's true body punched the ground, the hatred in his eyes almost overflowing. However, the tamed beast following Cheng Shi's low flight was still "bitter."

"I... know you recognized me, Xiao Shi. That's right, I am Xiao Qi. I just had to use Agua's identity because I couldn't face you.

I didn't know about what happened back then. It was Nanny Rong who talked nonsense and misled me. You know, we were the best of friends. Of course, I wanted you to be adopted by Dad... by Du."

Hearing this, Cheng Shi's face gradually became cold. He sneered: "I don't want to."

"..."

A sentence of "I don't want to" directly made Du Qiyu unable to pick up the conversation.

Chun, who was running in front of Cheng Shi, vaguely heard the relationship between the two. Her eyes condensed, and killing intent floated in her gaze toward the bird.

Like Lin Xi, she hated all traitors.

"Do you want to deal with him?" Chun suddenly asked.

This inquiry didn't get a response from Cheng Shi, but instead scared Du Qiyu quite a bit. The bird flapped its wings and flew high for a while, and then swooped down again with sadness.

"Xiao Shi... I know you hate me..."

"I don't hate you."

"..."

"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!" Du Qiyu, hiding in the distance, had a face like a pig's liver, his eyes spitting fire, and his fists punching the ground were bloody. His low-pitched and submissive attitude was exchanged not for understanding but for cold sarcasm, which made him, who had always cared about face, feel worse than death.

But only by living can one have everything, so Lin Xi must die.

"It's good that you don't hate me. I... didn't come specifically to seek your forgiveness. After all, I am also a 【Deception】 believer. In the current 【Void】 concentricity, I must obey the oracle of the Lord to annihilate all enemies of 【Annihilation】.

I deliberately approached Lin Xi just to act as eyes for you. Remember what I said? I will act as your eyes in the dark and protect you.

Believe me, only the highland in the north has no traps of Lin Xi. Only if you go from there can you be caught off guard. He doesn't know you are here yet, but as you get closer, he will be alert. Change direction, Xiao Shi, the opportunity is fleeting!"

Cheng Shi frowned, thinking about Du Qiyu's purpose.

Obviously, in Cheng Shi's view, there was absolutely no reason for the other party to suddenly come to help him.

The oracle was just an excuse; while completing the decrees bestowed by Them would indeed bring rewards, failing to do so would not bring punishment, so if Xiao Qi's starting point was piety...

That would be too ridiculous.

The piety of a 【Deception】 believer only consists of offering lies; in that case, his arrival must be another scam.

From the message sent from the dense forest to the early warning, was this old friend who seemed to have gotten together with Lin Xi really turning against them, or was he just acting?

Cheng Shi leaned toward a combination of both; he understood these liars too well—they would never do anything without benefits. But looking at Xiao Qi's performance in this round, could this half-baked beast tamer really achieve the fisherman's profit after the snipe and clam fight?

Could it be that the other party had been hiding his true strength all along?

Cheng Shi was not quite sure. The only thing he could be sure of was that he would never follow an outsider's arrangements in the face of a duel, so he did not change his direction or slow his speed, only asking Chun in front of him:

"Is there a way to deal with Lin Xi's traps?"

Chun nodded without looking back: "It's simple, just walk right through them."

"......?"

"The plague of 【Decay】 is strong in its breadth, not its intensity; it won't kill quickly. With the 【Prosperity】 talent as a backing, I can hold on until I annihilate all the plague for myself.

So you just need to keep following behind me.

However, the 【Annihilation】 traps are troublesome; we need to be vigilant about being thrown into a world about to be annihilated by that stinky rat.

Fortunately, 【Annihilation】 is only his secondary faith, and he has very few means to use as traps. As long as I am careful enough, the command flag can tell me where the aura of 【Annihilation】 is.

Cheng Shi, you don't need to do anything now, just give him the greatest degree of interference when I engage him, and I will be able to personally stab that dagger back into his heart!"

As she spoke, Chun reached into her bosom and gripped the long-rotted dagger.
