Qiu Ran thought that she was going to die.
Below her is an invisible bottomless abyss with a dark wind blowing. The height of the abyss was so deep that she gave up even the desire to struggle.
She was about to die, her body was shattered, she fell from a height, and she was bound to die.
"Unlucky," she thought, "I've...been lied to again."
She knew that Xia Xingye, who was at the end of his strength at that time, would never kill her by fighting head-on. Unfortunately however...
She had no defense against him until the moment before she was pushed into the abyss.
Since when did she start being lied to? Is his infighting with the puppeteer real? Was the story he told in the carriage true? even…
The ghost who was killed by him, wearing the uniform of the Chenxing team...
Is it really his teammate
All the questions flashed across Qiu Ran's mind like lightning. In the end, all that is left is confusion and despair.
She is dying.
She heard the whistling wind in her ears, and saw the black and white checkerboard high up, quickly disappearing from her field of vision, and the last ray of light shrank smaller and smaller. It seems that this last moment of freeze-frame is left in her retina, the scene of the last moment of her life.
At the edge of the chessboard, the moment of being pushed off. She saw Xia Xingye showing a perfect smile again, as if deliberately maintaining the arc of that smile, he turned around and took two steps.
She heard him laugh.
-until.
A black shadow jumped down from the edge of the chessboard!
Qiu Ran's eyes widened.
The black cloak flapped like a banner in the wind. That person fell so fast, so fast, as if he used some props to speed up the falling speed.
"you… "
She didn't have time to say the next sentence.
The man grabbed her.
Something is unfolding under their bodies!
Then at the next moment, they fell to the bottom of the abyss at an extremely high speed!
And make a bang!
However, the expected excruciating pain did not come. Instead of pain, the sound of tree buds being crushed densely, and...
Another soft body.
That body protected her the moment it landed on the ground.
Even so, the impact of the ground is not easy to bear. The two of them fell unconscious almost at the same time.
Qiu Ran woke up to the sound of rustling activities.
When she woke up again, there was still a dull pain in her chest caused by the impact. She struggled to get up from the ground, opened her eyes, but saw a black figure, coughing, holding a lantern, and wanted to leave from here.
The lantern in his hand was trembling, and it seemed that this person's condition couldn't be any better. But he was walking forward, step by step.
"You..." Qiu Ran hesitated for a moment, she gritted her teeth and got up to catch up, "What do you want to do?"
"roll."
It was a hoarse answer with coldness and extreme disgust.
roll
Qiu Ran was stunned. After a while, she suppressed the fire in her chest and asked him, "What do you mean?"
"Get away from me, and then, never appear in front of my eyes again."
That person doesn't look back.
There was still a strong smell of blood on his body, his steps were staggering, his teeth were gritted, but he still walked out step by step, and his voice was extremely cold.
She still hasn't settled the account of this person using her and cheating her several times!
Qiu Ran became angry almost at this moment. She pressed the ground and wanted to get up from the ground, but her ankle seemed to be sprained and she couldn't get up again. So she had no choice but to suppress her temper and said, "You told me to go? Why? Who do you think you are?"
"Who is it?" The man's voice was almost filled with the most vicious coldness, "You are stupid, disgusting, abuse your kindness, never learn to be smart, you will always be used by others, you will always be used by others You make your own sacrifices, and you think you are righteous, and you think that everyone will appreciate your sacrifice... "
"People like you, people like you..."
The man paused, then quickened his pace.
"Get out," he said hoarsely, with a bloody smell, "I don't want to see you again."
That man clearly lied to her, but at the moment when she followed his plan and was about to die, he jumped off the chessboard.
That person clearly saved her with his life, but now, he told her to go away with a disgusting tone as if he saw a fly.
That person was always soft-spoken when he was lying, and he was always polite on weekdays. But at this moment, he used the coldest and most vicious tone to mock her.
— Even just now, it was clearly him who saved her.
— With his tone just now, was he just scolding her... or was he scolding someone who had abandoned him? still is…
Also scolding, himself who just jumped off the cliff without hesitation
What was this businessman who only believed in the exchange of equal value and the division of interests was thinking when he jumped down just now
Now he walked into the darkness with a lamp, and left step by step, refusing to explain, refuse to apologize, and even refuse to thank others, what is he doing for
Qiu Ran has never been able to get answers to these questions throughout her life. With her feet sprained, she sat in the dark tree cage and watched Xia Xingye leave slowly but firmly with bloody steps.
—He is like a lock whose key has been lost, and has been displaced ever since. It's like a mystery that no one can solve anymore.
…
"Yo, let's jump down together."
The puppeteer in gray stood on the edge of the chessboard, looking down on tiptoe. Seeing that the two figures were no longer visible, he shook his head regretfully.
"You agreed to hunt other players with me, why did you suddenly find yourself dead? I really don't understand you, even though I said that after the other players are dead, I will kill you too... However, at least at that time, in addition to the rewards for hunting teammates, I can also get your puppet..." The man in gray spread his hands, "This is good. I jumped down, God knows where the bottom is, there are no bones Save, I can’t pick up your doll anymore…”
He stepped on the chessboard hard with his feet, as if he really regretted it, and felt extremely heartbroken.
"This is good, but I just killed that woman, and I have the qualification to leave the chessboard." The man in gray muttered to himself, and took the key out of his pocket.
What he held in his hand was the orange key belonging to "Rage". The key was still stained with blood, and he took a lot of effort to snatch it from the woman's hand just now.
The "Rage" belonging to "King Lear" belongs to him, and this chessboard, "Greed" belonging to "Cinderella" will also be his. Well, I don't know who took the "Jealousy" in the mirror maze just now. But the man in gray is not in a hurry, after all...
After all, all the players will eventually gather in front of the exiting door. He only needs to attack the remaining players in front of the door to get all the keys.
The program is indeed tempting and relaxing. but…
"If I had known earlier, I should have killed you in the labyrinth. Alas, be a little bit of a good person and let you live a little longer. It's really not rewarding for a good person..." The man in gray twisted his neck, "A few hours In such a short time, I have suffered such a big loss, this world is really too unfriendly to good people—”
"I think so too."
"Every time you give a little kindness, you will suffer losses yourself."
"Coincidentally, me too." The voice of the person behind was full of deep approval, "My sincerity and friendliness always make people want to avoid me."
The man in gray: ...
It's just that at that moment, the hairs all over his body tensed up subconsciously!
Over the years, the man in gray has been the most famous puppeteer in the high-level field, and he is as good as the wind and the rain. Everyone in the high-level field knows that he is an unscrupulous lunatic. There is an unwritten list of "people who must not be messed with" secretly in the camp. He doesn't care about it, but he obviously knows that he is definitely at the top of the list.
Over the years, he had long forgotten what it was like to be afraid. But when he realized that he heard the voice from behind him...
All the joints in his body ached at that moment!
He turned his head slowly, and what he saw was a young man in a purple windbreaker. The young man was very tall, his waist under the windbreaker was even very slender, his legs in purple trousers were also straight and long, and he was wearing black boots.
He turned his face sideways, and his slightly long black hair drooped down, covering his face, revealing only the white and straight nose tip and long and curled eyelashes.
But it's just such a look, just such a look that can't see the face clearly...
The puppeteer recognized this person!
He heard the sound of his teeth chattering, it was the fear welling up from the bottom of his heart, and the extreme pain and excitement like sexual desire.
"... woo."
crow.
This person is a crow.
Puppeteers have turned many people into puppets and painted the faces of many people. However, when a person has appeared in another person's dream many times, when this person has broken the other person's joints time and time again in tossing and turning nightmares...
It is absolutely impossible for him to forget this person.
The most terrifying killer in the high-level field, the most ruthless lunatic in the dungeon, the person who is offered the highest reward by the major mercenary teams, who is the enemy of the world and besieged by the world...
His nightmares, his enemies, his...
black muse.
... But how could he be alive
He's still alive, he's still in the senior field? ! How could he... be alive? !
As if noticing his eyes, the man turned his head and glanced at him.
His eyes are very dark, but also beautiful, peach-shaped eyes, elongated corners, always indifferent, but also like crazy eyes.
Just at this glance, the puppeteer recognized it.
He is back! !
The person who the entire senior field wanted to kill is back! !
His hands began to tremble. Was he the first to see the crow come back? Does anyone know that the crow has returned
What is he going to do in this dungeon? Where is he going next? What did he encounter before
These thoughts flashed across the puppeteer's mind in the blink of an eye.
He has never been a person who pays attention to the general situation. He only depends on his own interests in what he does. It is really useless to think about these things, let alone...
He has only one idea.
Make him your own doll! !
He saw those eyes looking him up and down, cold and cold, with a hint of doubt.
"Do I know you?"
He heard the crow say this.
