The fight didn't last long, only a few minutes.
Gu Chi only threw a few punches, and Ghostly Child just made a move and carved a flower.
Although the three of them were enchanted by the enchanting array of the charming woman, they were still enjoying themselves.
They were definitely not tired.
But everyone tacitly took a break.
Gu Chi wasn't in a hurry and asked the maid to bring some fruit.
The maid was also a spectator throughout the entire process, watching from a polite distance. She didn't understand why everyone was chatting nicely and then suddenly started fighting, and it was so fierce, with stabbings and heart-stabbings...
Mr. Chase Lee didn't stop them, but instead watched with interest, sipping on his wine from time to time, seeming to be in a good mood.
Is calling people to fight and then drinking and watching a new form of entertainment for Mr. Chase Lee?
The maid didn't understand, but she didn't dare to ask, just quietly followed Gu Chi's orders and did her own thing.
There were 12 seats at the round table, and now there were only 8 people left.
Gu Chi, Xia Ling, Ghostly Child, Power 39, Wind Trace, Drink More Lava, Sour Apple, and Thomas Roundhouse Kick.
Ashes of Annihilation should not be needed.
Both Ghostly Child and Power 39 were temporarily on his side, so it was 4 against 4 on the surface, and no one would want to focus on him, the prophet.
He was very safe now.

According to Gu Chi's guess, three people died in the first round, three more in the second round, and the third round would be about the same.
In Gu Chi's eyes, based on the battle just now, Power 39 had the potential to take on six opponents, and with Xia Ling not interfering, it was like fighting five opponents, so Power 39 had a good chance of winning.
It's just that this man was particularly cautious, as if he had been on guard against him all along.
Gu Chi couldn't help but wonder how to "intimidate" Power 39.
"Prophet, here," Ghostly Child peeled an orange for him.
The plump and juicy orange slices were like a crescent moon, with strands of orange peel sticking to them, smelling fragrant and sweet.
Xia Ling felt a little strange.
She and Gu Chi had a deep-rooted relationship, and to avoid suspicion, they deliberately kept a certain distance from each other to avoid being seen by other players.
It was Ghostly Child, who had nothing to do with Gu Chi, who was not afraid of anything, doing whatever she wanted, and seemed even closer to him than Xia Ling.
Xia Ling wasn't jealous, she just peeled an orange, not feeding him, she wasn't that petty.
She just felt that something was off about this little sister.
For players, "NPC" should be a negative term, as both sides are not in the same world, and even deep feelings cannot last long.
But for Ghostly Child, "NPC" was a positive term. According to the girl's words yesterday, it seemed that she didn't like it if she wasn't an NPC.
It's so strange.
Sour Apple didn't say anything.
The Feng Shui Master had left, but the lemon he hadn't finished was still there.
There were still eight left.
Sour Apple inherited his legacy and reluctantly returned to himself by taking a bite of lemon and then a bite of apple.
They rested for about ten minutes.
Power 39 spoke up, "Shall we continue?"
"Continue what?" Drink More Lava looked puzzled. "Haven't we caught all three moles?"
Everyone: "..."
Drink More Lava directly labeled the Feng Shui Master and the journalist as moles with one sentence.
What, the dead are the most important?
Okay, the biggest mole.
Drink More Lava understood very well that whether they were moles or not didn't matter, what mattered was that someone had to be eliminated.
Why did he take the risk to kill the journalist earlier?
Wasn't it just to take down that sneaky journalist?
It didn't matter if he was eliminated after completing his personal mission.
His task was to find the church players lurking in the corporate camp and crush their heads.
Drink More Lava judged that the underlying logic of the church camp was the same as Wind Trace's. The personal tasks of the church camp should all be non-PVP, and only the journalist and the one who surrenders fit his speculation—they belonged to the church camp, but what they were looking for was not in the church.
The one who surrendered had already disappeared without a word, which was very unfair. He could only hope that the target of his mission was the journalist.
And the journalist had unfortunately died under the enchanting array of the charming woman, without holding on until he went to support him, what could he do?
He could only focus on the public task.
Drink More Lava had indeed wanted to be a bad guy.
He talked about everyone getting rich together while hiding his own thoughts.
As long as he could take down the journalist, even if the remaining players teamed up to beat him to death, he wouldn't lose out. Swapping personal tasks for public tasks was worth it.
But times had changed.The journalist has passed away, and the living should do good.
Drinking more lava now wants to be a good person.
At this moment, he sincerely hopes that everyone will join hands and bravely break through the church. After passing through, he will create a group named "Me and My Good Brothers."
Thomas, Roundhouse Kick, and Sour Apple don't think so.
They are the true government camp.
The kind that can be checked by the prophet at will.
If there were ten people present before, the situation was relatively chaotic. Now that three people have died, the situation has become very clear.
The only big player on the field, with a power of 39, is on their side.
The prophet has a good relationship with two girls, and he protects them. He can also see through— they are not stupid, how could they not see that Gu Chi tampered with the divination results?
Including the already deceased journalist and Feng Shui master.
Especially the latter.
Look at the way he talks, full of nonsense, eloquent, can a person with a brain not be smart?
Everyone just sees through it without exposing it.
Luring NPCs is also one of the game methods. It's okay for Ghostly Child and Xia Ling to play like this, and it's okay for the prophet to protect them.
But, the remaining people can't just run away, right?
At the moment, it seems that the prophet does not intend to intervene, and protecting people is just arranging them into the government camp.
In other words, they now have five players on their side.
The advantage is huge!
They don't know that the prophet is also a player.
Thomas Roundhouse Kick looked at Wind Traceless, then at Drinking More Lava, and smiled maliciously, "Why do I feel like there's a mole among us?"
Sour Apple smirked, "Should we ask Mr. Prophet to check again?"
Wind Traceless said calmly, "I don't think it's necessary."
Whether his single lens glasses are a game prop or an ornament, they do have some visual effects.
He originally belonged to the kind of refined and delicate appearance, with a bronze round frame, a silver chain hanging from the frame, making him look like a knowledgeable scholar, polite and confident in speaking.
Drinking More Lava was very considerate of Gu Chi and said, "Indeed, there's no need. We are all part of the government, so checking would be pointless. As far as I know, using divination is very taxing. We are about to leave, so why bother Mr. Prophet again?"
As soon as Wind Traceless spoke, Drinking More Lava knew that the other party was probably not really part of the government camp. At the moment, the two of them were like grasshoppers on the same rope, naturally needing to help each other out.
He deliberately mentioned Gu Chi, seizing on Gu Chi's personality.
The prophet has always been aloof and didn't take their little tricks to heart.
Although he mentioned "Mr. Prophet" in his words, his audience was the players.
While occasionally checking the attributes, Drinking More Lava also observed Gu Chi. He concluded one thing— as long as you don't talk to Mr. Prophet, Mr. Prophet can't be bothered with you. He could then take advantage of Mr. Prophet's indifference to make some assumptions.
It's okay if you don't give us face, but you have to give Mr. Prophet face, right?
Who knew that things would be completely different from what he thought.
First, Gu Chi, who had been silent, suddenly said three words, "No need to bother."
Drinking More Lava: "?"
Then Wind Traceless also said, "You misunderstood me."
He looked at Drinking More Lava and said, "I said there's no need to check not because there's no mole, but because I know that you are the mole."
Drinking More Lava: "???"
Who is the mole?
This statement left Sour Apple and Thomas Roundhouse Kick stunned.
The expressions of Power 39 and Gu Chi also became very interesting.
To avoid being targeted, so target others first?
Drinking More Lava cursed in his heart. Can this guy even play?
Does he think that by getting rid of himself, the other players will let him off?
Drinking More Lava was a little annoyed, and for a moment, he couldn't think that Wind Traceless's personal goal might be him.
But that didn't stop him from arguing.
Angry as he was, Drinking More Lava wouldn't just sit and wait for death. He glared at Wind Traceless and said, "You, are you distorting the truth?"
"I'll tell you, I am a true member of the government camp, not only do I have a badge, but also a letter of recommendation!"
With a "smack," he slapped an envelope on the table, not giving Wind Traceless a chance to produce evidence against him. He was indignant, as if he had been betrayed, "I didn't want to bring it out in the first place. I thought we all came from the same place, so even if you were a mole, I would have turned a blind eye and let it go. I didn't expect you to turn the tables on me. Then I must ask Mr. Prophet to check you!"As he spoke, Duo He Yanjiang handed the letter to Gu Chi with a serious expression and said, "Mr. Prophet, this is a confidential document from the Morning Embrace government, related to my personal mission. It can't be shown to outsiders casually. It contains my identification. Please take a look and clear my name."
Gu Chi looked at Duo He Yanjiang with some doubt.
Based on the personal mission shown by the Peeping Eye, isn't this guy from the corporate camp?
How does he have a confidential document from the Morning Embrace government?
Could he be a double agent?
Duo He Yanjiang spoke convincingly, and it seemed like he wasn't lying, so Gu Chi believed him eighty percent.
But when he opened the envelope and looked at the paper inside, there were only two words - "Save me!"
Gu Chi: "......"
Duo He Yanjiang said seriously, "What do you think, Mr. Prophet? I didn't lie to you, did I?"
He showed no signs of abnormality in his expression, as if he was confident that this "confidential document" could help him turn the situation around.
Vinegar Apple and Thomas Roundhouse Kick were stunned by the bluff.
Gu Chi was secretly amused.
What kind of heavyweight players are these? They almost fooled him.
This letter came from a public password cabinet and involved a side mission related to the corporate camp. Duo He Yanjiang's quartz watch was snatched from an undercover government agent during this mission.
By taking out the letter, he was taking a gamble.
Duo He Yanjiang had no other choice. Once the corporate camp was confirmed, he would face a situation of 1 vs. 5, with zero chance of winning. He could only ask the Prophet for help and get a lifeline before Wind Over No Trace spoke up.
This was essentially his last "desperate move."
And his luck was indeed good - based on his superb acting skills, Gu Chi decided to help him out.
After all, he enjoyed watching the show, no matter how interesting it was.
So Gu Chi nodded expressionlessly and said, "Yes, it is indeed from the Morning Embrace government."
After speaking, the letter in his hand burst into flames, giving no chance for other players to inspect it.
Duo He Yanjiang felt as if a great burden had been lifted from his heart, and he was extremely grateful, thanking Gu Chi and his family. He maintained his composure and began to counterattack Wind Over No Trace.
With the Prophet backing him up, he was full of confidence. "I'm sorry, I misspoke just now. I shouldn't have asked the Prophet to check on you... Is there even a need to check?"
Duo He Yanjiang returned the conversation to Wind Over No Trace, looking at him provocatively. "If you want to attack a real government special agent, aren't you the mole? Why don't you just confess, and we'll go easy on you later."
The situation changed.
Vinegar Apple and Thomas Roundhouse Kick looked at Wind Over No Trace again.
Wind Over No Trace: "......"
He didn't know why Gu Chi was helping Duo He Yanjiang, but now was not the time to discuss that. He had to protect his own identity first.
Wind Over No Trace remained calm and said, "Even if you are from the real government camp, you can't prove that I'm not from the government camp. Special agents from different groups don't meet each other. It's normal for me to attack you for the benefit of the government camp, just like Apple and Roundhouse Kick, isn't it?"
He was trying to use logic to manipulate the situation.
Vinegar Apple looked at the two of them suspiciously. "Don't tell me there are 7 governments in this game. I don't believe it."
Thomas Roundhouse Kick: "I don't believe it either."
All that talk about high probability and low probability was nonsense. Whoever believed it was a fool.
Even if they really encountered such a strange situation, they wouldn't mind taking out two more people.
Wind Over No Trace raised Gu Chi's banner. "Are you suspecting the Prophet?"
Vinegar Apple: "?"
"The Prophet didn't check on you."
"But I can be checked."
Wind Over No Trace said, "True gold fears no fire. If you want the Prophet to check on me, go ahead, it's okay."
As long as he hadn't been checked, he could continue to play along until the last second.
Wind Over No Trace's mental toughness made Vinegar Apple and Thomas Roundhouse Kick hesitate.
If the Prophet found out that he wasn't from the government camp, everything would be fine. They could just finish the job.
But if it turned out that he was from the government camp, how would they justify attacking Wind Over No Trace?
So they were still too young.
Looking ahead and behind, how could they handle big things?
The silent Power 39 looked at everyone and asked in turn, starting with Vinegar Apple, "Are you sure you're from the government camp?"
Vinegar Apple: "Of course!"
Power 39 then looked at Thomas Roundhouse Kick. "And you?"
Thomas Roundhouse Kick: "Absolutely, definitely, and for sure."
Next was Duo He Yanjiang, who answered with great conviction, "Absolutely, a solid member of the government camp, personally certified by the Prophet!"
Wind Over No Trace also said, "I'll say it again, I can accept verification.""Power 39 didn't ask Xia Ling and Ghostly Child, he nodded and said, 'Alright, since you're both so sure, then I believe you. Don't argue with each other, you're all good brothers in the government camp.'
Duo He Yanjiang probed, 'Then shall we go to the church?'
Power 39 picked up his glass and took a sip of wine, saying, 'What's the rush? There are so many people, the game isn't over yet.'
Duo He Yanjiang immediately became alert, 'You're not thinking of backing out, are you?'
Hearing this, Vinegar Apple and Thomas Roundhouse Kick also became wary.
These players kept joining the government camp, all for the sake of Power 39's statement that 'players from the same camp can pass through together.'
If Power 39 backed out, it would mean that they would also become targets.
Power 39 shook his head, 'I said, my word is my bond. I won't kill players from the same camp.'
Duo He Yanjiang said, 'You just said that we are all good brothers in the government camp.'
Power 39: 'That's right.'
Duo He Yanjiang: 'Then why isn't the game over yet?'
Power 39 fell silent for a moment, then suddenly grinned, 'Because I'm not in the government camp.'
Duo He Yanjiang: '?'
Vinegar Apple: '?'
Thomas Roundhouse Kick: '?'
Power 39 scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly, 'Um, I'm really sorry, I made a mistake earlier. Actually, I'm in the corporate camp.'
Everyone: '???'
Only Wind Traceless calmly took out a piece of leather from his pocket, rolled up his sleeve to reveal a scar, and said to Duo He Yanjiang, 'You're right, I'm the mole. I'm also in the corporate camp.'
Duo He Yanjiang: '???'
The situation changed again, and this time it changed completely.
Vinegar Apple and Thomas Roundhouse Kick's heads were buzzing, feeling that they had been greatly deceived.
Duo He Yanjiang hurriedly said, 'I'm also in the corporate... really in the corporate camp! I have a number on my arm!'
He rolled up his sleeve in a hurry to prove it.
But Power 39 didn't even look at him, 'No, you're not. You're a government agent, certified by Mr. Prophet himself.'
Wind Traceless added, 'Are you questioning Mr. Prophet or yourself?'
Duo He Yanjiang: '???'
This is outrageous!
They changed their minds just like that. Is this how you guys play the game?
Ghostly Child timely said, 'Oh, I suddenly remembered, I think I'm also in the corporate camp!'
Everyone: '???'
This is why Power 39 didn't ask Ghostly Child if she was in the government camp.
It's risky for him to fight five people alone, but with Ghostly Child, it becomes two against four, which is no problem.
With the sunny personality of a young girl, she would definitely not miss this opportunity to kill.
Even if Ghostly Child can only fight one person, he would only have to face a maximum of three people's attacks - this has already entered his 'kill zone.'
The reason Power 39 didn't speak just now was to consider this issue.
He observed Gu Chi, and seeing Gu Chi looking amused, Power 39 knew that Gu Chi still had no intention of getting involved.
In that case, why continue the act?
Start the team!
"Boom!"
Power 39 really flipped the table this time - he had finished his wine.
At this moment, this man seemed to explode with an invisible flame, slapped the table hard, and shattered it into pieces, shooting them out like sliced pancakes.
The battle was about to begin.
Gu Chi reacted very quickly, grabbed Xia Ling's hand, and flashed fifty meters away.
He had already given himself a buff for running, otherwise why would he have been sitting there without moving for so long?
Ghostly Child also disappeared without a trace.
But Duo He Yanjiang and the others didn't manage to dodge.
The distance was too close.
They were sitting around the table, and Power 39's attack was fast. They could react, but their bodies couldn't keep up.
Their agility attribute was not enough.
The split round table hit them in the chest, sending them all flying, tumbling and falling, and the wine bottles and glasses shattered on the ground.
Power 39's slap didn't cause much actual damage, but it completely disrupted their positions, delaying their speed to join forces and attack.
"You old trickster!" Duo He Yanjiang cursed angrily. He was thrown more than ten meters away, got up quickly, grabbed a lava giant hammer, and charged at Power 39, shouting, "Let's all take him down together!"
Vinegar Apple rolled on the ground several times, then stood up, showing extremely rich rolling experience from being knocked back to getting up in one go.He was not afraid either. He picked up the glowing kitchen knife with his right hand and threw the apple he had just taken from the fruit basket with his left hand. With a few swift strokes, the apple was cut into several "hidden weapons" and shot towards Power 39.
Thomas spun around and kicked, building up power as he swung the skateboard fiercely along the ground. The speed was extremely fast, and the front end of the skateboard created a streamlined air curtain, like a cannonball, causing grass and mud to fly everywhere.
The three of them were in different positions, but they did not run away and chose to counterattack immediately.
When they faced Power 39 with over 200 attributes, they knew that they had no chance unless they worked together.
Culiu Apple shouted to Feng Guowu: "What are you waiting for? Help us!"
Feng Guowu: "Of course, I will help."
Not only would he help, but he was not the only one.
Feng Guowu took out a walkie-talkie: "Get ready to open fire."
As soon as he finished speaking, a row of machine guns suddenly appeared outside the garden wall, and one figure after another emerged, at least a hundred people in total.
They only showed half of their bodies, some wearing protective clothing, and some wearing combat uniforms, completely surrounding one side of the garden.
Culiu Apple was both shocked and delighted: "Did you call for backup?"
Feng Guowu nodded.
Culiu Apple felt that something was wrong. He saw that there were NPCs from the government camp among them, and many of them were the people he had ambushed on the way to the church. How could Feng Guowu have called them here?
"Are you really from the government camp?" Culiu Apple asked.
Feng Guowu: "No, I turned them against their own camp."
Culiu Apple: "?"
It didn't matter. They needed to deal with Power 39 first.
Culiu Apple said, "Quick, focus your fire on him!"
Feng Guowu: "Why should we focus our fire on him?"
Culiu Apple: "?"
Feng Guowu: "I don't want a public mission, I want a personal mission."
Culiu Apple had a bad feeling: "What do you mean?"
Feng Guowu smiled: "I mean indiscriminate shooting, including myself."
Culiu Apple: "???"
"Are you crazy?"
"Not at all."
Feng Guowu put on his helmet, unzipped his jacket to reveal the bulletproof vest inside, and said seriously, "They're all level three, so they should be able to hold out for a while."
Culiu Apple: "F*ck!"
"Open fire," Feng Guowu said casually.
Outside the wall, more than a hundred people pulled the trigger.
"Da da da da da...!"
The muzzles spewed flames, and bullets poured into the garden like a storm.
For a moment, the trees and grass shook, and mud splattered everywhere.
Everyone, including Gu Chi and Xia Ling, was within the range of the NPC's gunfire!
Feng Guowu did not forget that Xia Ling might be from the corporate camp.
In any case, he would definitely die in this wave of attacks—although Power 39 was now claiming to be from the corporate camp, he might switch to the church camp later.
It was better to give it a try.
Unfortunately, there was no chance.
Gu Chi had not expected Feng Guowu to have this trick up his sleeve, but he had teleportation.
He did not go looking for trouble with Feng Guowu.
Xia Ling should be able to handle the opponent, but that area was the hardest hit by the gunfire, so it was not worth the risk.
This was not reality.
If there were such an enemy in reality, Gu Chi might have to say, "This person must be eliminated, or he will become a great threat in the future."
This bespectacled man was really good at playing.
Power 39 had not expected such a turn of events.
Fortunately, although these bullets carried a piercing magical effect, they were of a low level and did not cause much damage to him.
When the gunfire started, Duo He Yanshui jumped up, holding a hammer in both hands, wanting to give him a hard blow. Power 39 did not even dodge, and punched the hammer, sending Duo He Yanshui and the hammer flying together, then chased after a group of NPCs under the gunfire.
With nearly 100 points of difference in attributes, the power gap was too great, and Duo He Yanshui, even with all his strength, was no match for Power 39.
In addition to the sudden machine gun fire, Duo He Yanshui had to use defensive skills to withstand the bullets, making him so angry that he wanted to curse.
What kind of game was this!
Thomas's spinning kick and Culiu Apple were also in a sorry state, running around on the lawn, unable to focus all their firepower on Power 39.
They were not afraid of one gun, or even ten guns, but they couldn't withstand over a hundred guns. They had to use half of their "blue bars" to shield and defend against the bullets.
The most frustrating thing was that these guns could only hurt them, not Power 39.The bullets hitting this man were nothing more than a scratch on the skin.
His suit was torn to pieces, with faint traces of blood visible, but there was not a single bullet hole to be seen on his body.
Feng Guowuhen was basically helping Power 39 by doing this.
That was why Power 39 didn't bother with Feng Guowuhen.
But Ghostly Child wouldn't let him off the hook.
How dare he lay a hand on Mr. Prophet?
Mr. Prophet had a lot of patience and didn't bother with Feng Guowuhen, but Ghostly Child was different.
She was petty and couldn't stand to see someone bully something she cared about.
...Wait, Mr. Prophet wasn't an object.
Or was he?
Whatever, Feng Guowuhen had to die!
Ghostly Child, invisible, moved like a ghost through the hail of bullets, swiftly approaching Feng Guowuhen.
Feng Guowuhen couldn't see her, but he could see the bursts of blood in the air.
This was within his expectations, but also beyond them.
Feng Guowuhen guessed that even if Gu Chi didn't attack him, Ghostly Child would definitely kill him for Gu Chi. He just didn't expect Ghostly Child to be so ruthless, willing to hurt herself just to make him die faster.
Getting hit at this time meant he was basically out of the game, as Ghostly Child had essentially given up the game rewards for the sake of an NPC.
He was forced to act early.
"You bastard, go to hell!"
Ghostly Child suddenly appeared behind Feng Guowuhen, clawing at his neck, her attack fast and fierce, tearing through the air and leaving five crimson claw marks.
But the expected scene of blood and flesh splattering did not occur.
The girl's claw went straight through Feng Guowuhen's neck.
"Feng Guowuhen" flickered as if the signal was bad, and many fine white lines appeared on his body, then quickly returned to normal, standing still.
Ghostly Child was stunned. "Holographic image?"
More accurately, it was "Particle Escape"—
【Particle Escape Level 10: Enter particle state, lasting 10 seconds. Immune to fatal damage not exceeding 10 times one's own life value during this period, leaving a holographic image in place and able to initiate a teleportation】
This was Feng Guowuhen's life-saving skill, with a 48-hour cooldown after triggering the death immunity, very precious, but now he was using it as a displacement skill.
The Feng Guowuhen just now was the real Feng Guowuhen, otherwise the bullets would have "passed through" and couldn't fool Ghostly Child. But after Ghostly Child's claw attack, Feng Guowuhen turned into an image.
Taking advantage of the particle escape effect, he seemed to be reassembled from thousands of light particles and appeared at the side of Duohe Yanliang.
At this time, Duohe Yanliang and the other two were ambushing Power 39—mainly dodging, as they couldn't withstand a direct attack and could only launch attacks from the side or rear.
Feng Guowuhen suddenly appeared, startling Duohe Yanliang, who then became furious. "You dare to come over here!"
He swung a hammer at Feng Guowuhen.
Feng Guowuhen didn't dodge, instead he slapped Duohe Yanliang's chest.
Duohe Yanliang thought this guy was trying to exchange his life, and quickly activated his defense skill, but to his surprise, he felt nothing when the slap landed on him.
Instead, Feng Guowuhen was hit hard, his waist caved in, bones shattered, and blood everywhere.
"Is this guy here to offer his head?" Seeing Feng Guowuhen being easily knocked away, Duohe Yanliang thought the other party might want to die in atonement, until a series of "beep beep beep" sounds reached his ears. He looked down and found a flashing red light on a white disc stuck to his chest.
Duohe Yanliang widened his eyes, but before he could react, Power 39's fist arrived.
Power 39 had been waiting for an opportunity and hadn't used his full strength, because he needed to save some energy to fight Ghostly Child and Gu Chi.
In a free-for-all under personal mode, to win in the end, one must maintain their state.
Duohe Yanliang and the others thought they could hold him back one by one, but in reality, he was just pretending to go easy, waiting for Ghostly Child to deal with Feng Guowuhen and then come to help him break the situation. He didn't need to exert himself to chase after them.
The person who came now wasn't Ghostly Child, but to him, it was almost the same. Duohe Yanliang sent Feng Guowuhen flying, and with this blow to the head, it was enough for him to come over and unleash his righteous iron fist.
"Boom!"
"Splurt!"
Power 39's fist hit Duohe Yanliang's back, and he immediately spat out a large mouthful of blood.
At the same time, Feng Guowuhen coughed up blood, and with great difficulty, pressed the remote control to detonate the special bomb on Duohe Yanliang's body.
Ghostly Child had snatched a head from Power 39 before, so Power 39 couldn't hold back anymore and had to try to take a head at this moment.The violent explosion brought up a raging flame, swallowing both the lava and the power of 39.
【Player "Drink More Lava" died, mission failed, remaining players: 7】
No one knew who got the head.
The next second, Ghostly Child stood in front of the heavily injured Wind Trace, reaching out without mercy.
Wind Trace could actually struggle a bit more, but it was meaningless.
He had done his best in this game, no matter how he was ultimately evaluated, he accepted it.
Wind Trace closed his eyes calmly, allowing the girl's fingers to pierce his chest and take out his heart.
【Player "Wind Trace" died, mission failed, remaining players: 6】
The gunfire in the garden was slowing down, and the peripheral machine gunners were falling one by one.
On the side of Power 39, the flames had not yet been extinguished, and Vinegar Apple thought the opportunity had come, so he picked up the kitchen knife and charged forward.
But unexpectedly, Power 39 in the flames suddenly turned around.
Half of his body and face were charred, and blood and flesh were blurred. He grinned at Vinegar Apple.
His neat teeth looked exceptionally white against his blackened face.
But Vinegar Apple just felt that this man was so damn terrifying!
But since he had come, he wouldn't leave.
Power 39 simply threw a punch, and before Vinegar Apple's kitchen knife could strike, his whole body suddenly exploded into countless pieces, scattering a large cloud of blood mist.
【Player "Vinegar Apple" died, mission failed, remaining players: 5】
Power 39 picked up the coins and glanced at the situation on the field.
Gu Chi and Xia Ling were not in the garden, they should be clearing the NPCs outside.
Thomas Roundhouse Kick was being bullied single-handedly by Ghostly Child.
His attributes were not much worse than the girl's, around 30 points, so he wouldn't be completely defenseless in a real fight.
But he didn't have the anti-invisibility skill.
Ghostly Child had helped Gu Chi find so many magic books, and she naturally learned the skills on them. 99% of them were of no use to her, and the remaining 1% was an advanced invisibility technique.
Not only would she not reveal herself due to sneezing, but her normal attacks would also not reveal her, and she would cancel the invisibility herself after the next attack, causing double damage to the enemy.
Ghostly Child remained invisible throughout, and her speed was fast, with an agility attribute close to three digits, making it difficult for Thomas Roundhouse Kick to even catch her attack trajectory after a few rounds, leaving him covered in scars and claw marks, feeling very frustrated.
Power 39 did not go over.
Thomas Roundhouse Kick couldn't take it anymore: "If you have the guts, come out!"
"Okay." Ghostly Child's crisp voice sounded behind him.
Thomas Roundhouse Kick swung his skateboard, hitting nothing but air.
Instead, five blood holes appeared on his chest with a "chirp."
Ghostly Child still didn't appear.
Thomas Roundhouse Kick looked down, watching his heart and the broken flesh in front of his chest "automatically" float out, and fell down with a face full of unwillingness.
He swore that the next time he entered a dungeon, he would definitely bring a backpack of anti-invisibility items!
【Player "Thomas Roundhouse Kick" died, mission failed, remaining players: 4】
It was only at this time that Power 39 spoke to the air: "I know you're targeting me next, but don't think about sneaking up on me. I can see you. Come out and fight me fair and square."
Ghostly Child didn't answer, just moved her steps, circling closer to Power 39.
Her skills, other than invisibility, were all there. As long as she wanted, she could run at high speed without making any sound, let alone walking.
But it seemed like Power 39's gaze was locked on her, and he was following her position.
"Can he really see me?" Ghostly Child frowned, thought for a moment, and suddenly accelerated in the opposite direction, circling half a circle.
But Power 39 was still maintaining the same rhythm, spinning in place, looking very dull.
Ghostly Child: "..."
Sure enough, men are all liars.
It's better to have a fortune teller.
Ghostly Child smiled and slowly approached Power 39.
It wasn't that she was being careless, on the contrary, this was the most suitable assassination technique for her at the moment.
Her talent and skills could help her hide all her breath and sound, even her heartbeat. Opponents without anti-invisibility abilities could only rely on the sound of the wind and the environment to discern her position. If she patiently slowed down her speed, the enemy would completely fail to detect her trace.
Ghostly Child even used the levitation magic, with her feet off the ground, leaving no trace on the lawn during movement.
She was now like a ghost.
Ghostly Child's condition was not very good, she had been hit by several bullets just now, although she had stopped the bleeding with healing magic, the bullets were still in her body, and she needed to finish the battle quickly.She inquired about the detailed attributes of Power 39 from Xia Ling. This guy has super high strength, but only 30 points of constitution. As long as he hits the vital point, plus the double damage when breaking the invisibility, he should be able to take down this man with one big move.
Power 39 is still spinning.
Ghostly Child quietly floated behind him.
5 meters, 4 meters... 1 meter.
Start to gather strength.
"Boom!"
At this moment, Power 39 suddenly and without warning turned around and punched, with 139 points of strength fully unleashed. His fist even faintly showed a dark golden color.
Ghostly Child widened her eyes, wanting to dodge, but was a beat too slow, and was solidly hit on the shoulder by Power 39's punch!
"I told you, I can see you."
This punch was powerful and fast, directly shattering the girl's entire left shoulder.
Ghostly Child's body seemed to be torn apart, her left arm, dripping with blood, was first sent flying, and then her whole body was carried away by the remaining force, letting out a painful cry as she flew out like a cannonball.
Gu Chi, who had just finished cleaning up the NPCs at the garden gate, sighed lightly, took a step forward, and caught the girl.
The girl's blood continued to flow, and her broken left shoulder instantly dyed his clothes red.
The bones at the broken shoulder had been crushed into pieces, embedded in the flesh, a shocking sight.
"Mr. Prophet..." Ghostly Child's face was pale, with splatters of blood on her mouth and nose. She endured the intense pain in her body and said intermittently, "I, I'm so stupid... I, I was... deceived again..."
Her voice was weak, as if she was whispering, as if she could stop breathing at any moment.
Gu Chi remained silent.
Ghostly Child squeezed out another weak voice, "But, it's okay... I brought this upon myself. If there's a next time... I, I will still be this stupid."
It's unclear which kind of stupidity she was referring to.
There are many ways to deceive people, and in a fight, this is a common tactic. Ghostly Child naturally wouldn't blame Power 39.
She was no match for him, and deserved to be taken down in one hit.
In her eyes, the game is simple, with only one winner in solo mode. Even if she knows she can't win, she will still play and have fun.
Dying in the arms of Mr. Prophet made her feel like she had gained something.
Ghostly Child didn't melodramatically ask Gu Chi to kill her.
Mr. Prophet is just an NPC, killing her would serve no purpose. As fellow players, it would be better for her head to go to Power 39.
Before dying, she should make full use of her own value.
And the reason she was so reckless today, no one is afraid, is also related to her other talent.
Who said that dying means you can't clear the level?
In any case, Ghostly Child had no regrets in this game, the only thing that made her feel a little depressed was that after logging off, she would have to return to that terrible reality.
She didn't know if she would ever see Mr. Prophet again in the future...
Ghostly Child didn't speak again, and couldn't speak anymore.
This punch from Power 39 not only shattered her left shoulder, but also completely dispersed the vitality in her body. Even if a specialized healer came to cast a big healing spell, it wouldn't save her, so... it ends here.
Ghostly Child finally raised her eyes and looked at Gu Chi, smiling and closing her eyes.
[Player "Ghostly Child" has died, mission failed, remaining players: 3]
The second round of the roundtable meeting ended.
In a chaotic and bloody way.
Now it's time for the final round.
Gu Chi placed the girl on the ground and stood up slowly.
Xia Ling came up behind him.
Power 39 also walked over, smiling and said, "You played this NPC role quite well. Ghostly Child will probably kill you once she knows the truth."
Gu Chi: "Will you tell her?"
Power 39 shook his head: "Of course not. I stopped that woman earlier not just for us."
Power 39 didn't finish the rest of the sentence, saying it would sound a bit fake, but he really didn't want to see Ghostly Child upset.
They are all players in the same group, so it's good to take care of each other.
Gu Chi smiled, "I didn't expect you to have this side."
Power 39 raised his mouth: "I have the heart of a tiger, and I can smell the roses."
Gu Chi asked him, "Do you want another drink?"
Power 39 waved his hand: "No, let's end it soon and go back to reality."
Gu Chi was curious about one thing: "Are you so sure that I'm a player?"
Power 39 pointed to his temple: "Logic."
"What logic?" Gu Chi asked.
"A lot of logic," Power 39 said, "The simplest one is, you tell us not to cause trouble everywhere, and then let Ghostly Child go to the church to kill until the blood flows like a river. This is not something a church NPC should do.""Next, the radar that doesn't surrender has detected you, you should know this." Power 39 looked at Xia Ling, "That night, I noticed that you were staring at the one who doesn't surrender, should you be trying to keep him from talking too much? The number of players doesn't match, and there is another possibility - the last person is hiding nearby, but your actions make me not even have to think, I can directly confirm that the prophet has a problem."
Upon hearing this, Xia Ling looked at Gu Chi, her eyes pitiful, as if apologizing.
Gu Chi smiled and gestured to the girl that it was okay.
"Do I need to say more?" Power 39 smiled, "Anyway, from the moment I saw your attributes, whether you are a player or not, you will be my target, it's just a matter of whether I will kill you in the end."
Gu Chi: "So you are really confident that you can win with all attributes at 999?"
"Correct." Power 39 nodded, "And I can make sure you can't escape."
As he spoke, he took out a glass bead and crushed it.
A surging energy spread out from him like a tide, forming a square barrier around him, with a faint blue barrier even under his feet.
All six directions were completely sealed off, there was no way to the sky, and no way into the ground.
Power 39 clenched his fists, making a cracking sound, "Come on, the final battle, the two of you together."
Gu Chi couldn't be bothered to try to see if the spirit could escape, and chuckled, "You really are confident."
Power 39 said frankly, "I can't possibly lose."
In this game, he had calculated everything without leaving a trace, why wouldn't he be confident?
To confirm Gu Chi's attributes, he even privately asked each player, and the answer he got was 4995.
He could only apologize to Gu Chi.
"Is that so?" Gu Chi said, "If 999 in all attributes can't hold you, what about more?"
As he spoke, a tremendous breath suddenly burst forth from Gu Chi, like a mountain call and a sea roar.
His clothes rustled in the wind, his eyes gleamed with golden light, and a dreamlike image of a woman appeared behind him, as if the goddess of fate had come in person, emitting a hazy divine light, making people feel a sense of worship.
The pressure brought by this moment even made Power 39 feel an unbeatable feeling.
He asked in confusion, "Can you still be stronger?"
Gu Chi smiled ambiguously, "Why don't you check for yourself?"
Power 39 really did check.
【Name: Chase Lee Williams】
【Total Attributes: Ω (Click to view details)】
Power 39: "???"
Infinity??
Yes, infinity.
All attributes Ω!
Gu Chi: "Do you still want to fight?"
"Fight! Why not?" Power 39 suddenly laughed, "Do you know? The higher your attributes, the more excited I am!"
Gu Chi: "???"
What skills does this person have hidden?
Can he even fight with all attributes Ω?
Power 39's eyes lit up, "I'm sorry, brother, my special ability is to exchange attributes, your Ω is amazing, and now it's mine."
Throughout his gaming career, Power 39 had been pursuing the ultimate power, and he really wanted to see if he could really break space and create a new world with just his fists - and now, Gu Chi had given him a chance!
The power of Ω level attributes, how powerful would that be?
Power 39 didn't lie to Gu Chi, he rarely had genuine emotional fluctuations from the heart, but at this moment, Power 39 was really excited.
He had originally wanted to chat with Gu Chi a little more, and wait for Gu Chi to make the first move, but he couldn't help it now.
"Thank you, Mr. Prophet."
Gu Chi wanted to say something, but before he could speak, Power 39 had already laughed and activated his special ability -
【Divine Oracle: Judgment of Sin: Choose a target and exchange attribute values with it, lasting 30 seconds to 10 minutes.】
"Hahaha, come on, bring it on!"
Power 39 laughed loudly.
At first, it was really loud, and Gu Chi's eardrums were tickled by it.
Until a strange sense of weakness came from within his body.
Power 39 felt his strength rapidly diminishing, rather than increasing.
His laughter gradually faded, until his smile froze on his face.
He opened his personal panel to take a look.
————————
Player: Power 39
Current Gender: Male
Game Sessions: 1456
Constitution: 7 (+2.4)
Spirit: 10 (+1.4)
Dexterity: 5 (+1.2)
Strength: 6 (+1.2)
Charisma: 9 (+1.2)
————————
Power 39 widened his eyes, "??????"
Where is my Ω?
Gu Chi: "Hahaha!"
Now it was his turn to laugh.
He rarely had genuine emotional fluctuations from the heart, but this time he couldn't help it.Why are people still sending attributes!
"Poof..." Xia Ling couldn't help but laugh and bent over, covering her mouth.
Strength 39: "???"
Gu Chi was deeply moved and went up to shake hands with Strength 39: "Big brother, you are really a good person!"
"No!" Strength 39 shook off his hand, incredulously said: "How can you only have this few attributes?"
Without saying Ω, Gu Chi's panel is purely that of a newcomer, playing the game for at most a year, how could he rank so high?
This random entry is not the right way!
And obviously, he confirmed Gu Chi's attributes three or five times, how could it be wrong?!
"Nothing is impossible," Gu Chi said, "Why are you so sure that my attributes are real?"
"How could it be fake?" Strength 39 didn't understand, "Didn't you choose to play as an NPC? Isn't it normal for NPC attributes to be high?"
After seeing Gu Chi's attributes, people like Pure Land and Do Nothing all thought he couldn't be a player because his attributes were too high, but they overlooked one thing.
In the Pure Land game, there are identity cards, and there are advanced identity cards that can be self-selected.
In the whole game, only he, the charming woman, and those who thought of surrendering realized this, and Wind Over Traceless might have thought of it too, but that's not important.
Strength 39 had doubts about the authenticity of Gu Chi as an NPC.
Yesterday afternoon, he specially brought a group of players to find Gu Chi, just to see if Ghostly Child could complete the task with Gu Chi.
This is an ironclad logic.
If Gu Chi is not an NPC, Ghostly Child will be completely corrupted.
And the fact is, Ghostly Child admitted his mistake and even showed more affection for Gu Chi than before.
Even if attributes can be faked, how can NPC identity be faked? How can system prompts be faked?
Strength 39 didn't know, and the real prophet Chase Lee, until now, was still muttering one sentence in the basement of the villa:
"Ashes of Annihilation, Ashes of Annihilation... I want the Ashes of Annihilation!"
Strength 39 actually lost this wave unjustly.
Gu Chi not only deceived him, but also deceived the system.
He had been building dreams for Chase Lee for several days, writing "Ashes of Annihilation" all over the wall, forcibly implanting subconsciousness into him, changing the wish of this true prophet from "becoming a well-known prophet" to "obtaining the secret book of Ashes of Annihilation".
At that time, he put the box containing the Ashes of Annihilation into a paper bag, and the box did not really disappear, but he used verbal spirit to transfer it to Chase Lee's hand.
So Ghostly Child's task would be completed at that time.
Gu Chi naturally wouldn't explain all this to Strength 39, but he could tell the other party with certainty: "I am indeed not an NPC, just an ordinary player."
Strength 39: "???"
You're ordinary, my foot!
Even I was fooled by you, and you're ordinary?
Gu Chi once again issued a friendly invitation: "Do you want to have a drink?"
"Drink what!" Strength 39's face turned red.
As the top player of the Do Nothing group, being fooled by a newcomer who had just entered Pure Land for a year or two for a whole game!
Damn it!
Strength 39 had said before that he had always been a very objective person.
He admitted that Gu Chi was awesome, really awesome.
But now he was in turmoil, his breathing was not smooth, and he was not in the mood to talk, like having a heart attack, not suitable for conversation.
Strength 39 was afraid that he couldn't help but curse, which would make him look like a sore loser!
Being defeated by Gu Chi, he really had no face to stay any longer, and there was a pretty girl mocking him on the side!
The duration of "Judgment of Sin" is determined by the target. The higher the target's attributes, the shorter the duration, and vice versa.
Gu Chi's weak attributes meant that he was a small fry who could be manipulated for a full ten minutes.
The key point was that he had sealed off this area himself.
He didn't know if Gu Chi would run now, but he couldn't run.
It was completely a case of lifting a stone and smashing his own foot, and smashing it to pieces.
Strength 39 couldn't hold it anymore: "Just kill me, hurry up!"
The personal mode of the top player did not have the option to clear the level together.
Gu Chi was a little reluctant: "Don't you want to chat a little more?"
"I don't want to chat, wait for me to go offline and calm down for a few days before talking." Strength 39 threw the clearance key to Gu Chi and threatened, "Hurry up, or I'll commit suicide."
Do you still want to leave a head for yourself at this point?
Gu Chi sincerely said: "You are really a good person."
Strength 39: "?"
Do you think I will still be a good person when I meet you next time!
Gu Chi didn't say much, after all, he had things to do.
"See you in the next game."
Gu Chi took out the big machete given to him by Xia Ling and ended Strength 39's recruitment journey.
[Player "Strength 39" died, mission failed, remaining number of players: 2]Xia Ling couldn't stop laughing: "Brother Gu Chi, you're so awesome!"
"It's not me being awesome, it's just luck." Gu Chi wanted to laugh too, but he decided to wait until after logging off.
The real challenge was just beginning.
The instance had ended, but his operation hadn't.
Time was limited; he had to act fast.
Gu Chi led the girl to the rooftop of the main cathedral building.
There were a few gatekeeper believers, whom Gu Chi dispatched with a few casual words.
Xia Ling asked, "Are we leaving directly?"
"Of course not." Gu Chi's expression turned slightly serious as he asked the girl, "Do you dare to take a gamble with me?"
Blinking her eyes, Xia Ling inquired, "Gamble on what?"
"Gamble on the public mission reward of this instance," Gu Chi explained. "If we lose the bet, we won't be able to clear the instance. But if we win, there might be a huge surprise... a very big surprise."
Without a second thought, Xia Ling replied, "I'll listen to you."
"Good!" Gu Chi exclaimed.
His operation didn't originally have a high chance of success.
44 points of Dao Yun might not be enough to accomplish what he wanted.
But a strength of 39 had given him a big hand; his current Dao Yun limit was 213.
Two A→S offline instances had given Gu Chi such an idea.
It involved a logic—the difficulty of an instance would only increase, never decrease, otherwise everything would become chaotic.
After all, clearing an instance is a process of making it continuously easier until it's conquered.
It wouldn't make sense if defeating a BOSS resulted in a decrease in the instance's required combat power and difficulty, would it?
That would be illogical.
Once the difficulty of an instance was raised, it would not be lowered again.
Gu Chi looked at the diamond-shaped crystal in his hand, took a deep breath, and decisively crushed it.
Immediately, a system notification sound rang in his ear.
"Ding!"
[Instance Announcement]
[The unique item for clearing the current instance has been destroyed, difficulty increased]
[S→Ω]
Xia Ling: "???"
Gu Chi refilled his Dao Yun and commanded, "Restore!"
[Dao Yun -66]
Buzz!
The shattered crystal reassembled as if time were flowing backward.
A brand-new "key" appeared in Gu Chi's hand.
There was no second instance announcement.
Xia Ling was a bit stunned.
Could you even play like this??
Gu Chi placed the crystal into the slot above the gate.
The originally empty portal immediately lit up with a burst of white light, forming a swirling vortex of radiance.
With a slight glint in his eyes, Gu Chi took Xia Ling's hand: "Let's go!"
[《The Extinguished Iris》 instance cleared!]
[Reward calculation in progress…]
…
To finish writing directly, the word count is quite high, it took a long time to edit 1.4W haha, this instance is over, throw flowers!
(Silver big shots, don't scold me, I hit the title limit, I could only hang a name, wuwu)
