"How to divide three keys and seven people?"
At midnight, Liu Ruoyu tilted her head and leaned against the wall, turning three golden keys in her hand.
"Two, three, three. Five people will go to the warehouse, and three people will go to the bedroom. I personally think there will be more information in the bedroom." Glasses reached out for the key, but Liu Ruoyu dodged it lightly.
"I agree, but the original partners have to form a team separately." Liu Ruoyu stroked her hair. "I know that the cooperation between partners will be more tacit, but... we have to make sure that no one hides information privately."
Her eyes swept over Sister An Ning and finally landed on Yun Chuan.
"Little handsome boy, do you want to ditch your partner and form a team with your sister?" She raised the corners of her lips and revealed an ambiguous smile. "I can follow my sister in the future~"
"..." Yunchuan silently took a step back, hiding himself behind Mu Chen.
"Okay, okay, then I just don't want to." Liu Ruoyu shrugged, and she casually tore off a piece of paper from the note pad on the table and divided it into nine parts.
An An and Ning Ning were obviously reluctant to hold hands together, but they still extended their hands obediently under Liu Ruoyu's pressure, which seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
Yun Chuan glanced at Hong, who was pale, and reached for the lottery ticket in the upper left corner.
"The food we ate at today's dinner will most likely lead to the main body attacking us like last night. Try to search after dealing with them." Glasses raised the card in his hand, which had the three characters "Warehouse 1" written on it.
"I'm in a group with you." Yan Yan opened his note.
"And me." An An whispered.
"Hong and I are in a group." Yunchuan opened the note with warehouse 2 engraved on it.
Then the only ones who broke into the bedroom at night were Mu Chen, Liu Ruoyu and Ning Ning.
‘Only players with level B or above are eligible to obtain superpowers. Be careful not to show the shadow’s abilities. Follow them and I will find an opportunity to meet you. ’ Before leaving, Yunchuan quietly sent a message to Mu Chen.
……
"Thank you." Hong suddenly whispered after walking a few hundred meters.
"Huh?" Yun Chuan raised his eyebrows, a little confused.
"He should have been attacked by the valet on my behalf... After you went out that day, we saw a valet following you... But I... I should have gone to help you." Hong pursed his lips and his voice was trembling, "I'm sorry. I was too impulsive, I really didn’t expect that Shanfeng would be like this in the first copy...I’m sorry..."
Yun Chuan looked at the woman who lowered her head and did not dare to look at him, with a smile on her lips.
"Is he injured?"
Hong lowered his head and nodded, then said firmly, "I will protect you."
"Protect me?"
"Um...don't you have that kind of relationship..." Hong crossed his fingers, looking a little embarrassed.
"?" This time it really touched upon Yunchuan's knowledge blind spot.
"Isn't that right? Sorry, sorry... It's just that in the past few days, I've seen you always walk behind Mu Chen except for plot needs, and I can always see him climbing up your window from the window..."
"...Do you think we are a couple?" Yun Chuan narrowed his eyes dangerously, but Hong didn't notice.
"Uh..." Hong rubbed his hands hesitantly.
"What else do you want to say?" Yunchuan glanced at the clock on the wall. It was now eleven-thirty, and the girl was going to meet her partner in half an hour.
Yunchuan still has some patience with dying people.
"Well...I heard what they said...after all, you don't act like a couple." Hong hesitated, "Just...it's Canary...you know."
"They said you don't look like you're here to clear the level, but more like you're here for a trip. Generally, players like this are either very powerful and don't care about the dungeon, or... they just have someone to protect them for a formality."
"You mean you think I'm hugging his thigh?" Yunchuan was not angry at all.
"No. Ahem... Liu Ruoyu guessed that you might have followed a big boss, and then the big boss sent Mu Chen to protect you... So what... C-level and above dungeons can only be entered across one level. Glasses now suspects that Mu Chen is C-level Player, I plan to test his strength tonight." Hong quickly added, "I'll give Mu Chen a note."
"You guys have quite a lot to think about." Yun Chuan commented ruthlessly.
"So you are just ordinary partners? No wonder it's so easy to separate you... Mainly because you are so good-looking." Hong sighed. "Now in Xingchen, those who are good-looking will either be picked up by the boss as soon as they come in. Go, or be... careful!"
Hong suddenly kicked sideways and pulled out a flaming dagger from the air.
A rustling sound sounded, and a black vine poked its head out from the darkness, "It was you who killed Feng..." The woman's pupils suddenly shrank to the size of a needle tip, and she immediately recognized a piece of the past hanging on the vine leaf. Japanese style fabric belonging to the mountain.
Yun Chuan recognized that it was the cowardly grapevine from last night.
"If you can't beat me, stand behind me." Hong cut off the branches and leaves that were rushing towards the two of them. The vines with claws and teeth twisted and flapped around as soon as they came into contact with the blazing flames.
"Shanfeng only drank wine at last night's banquet. To be precise, he secretly vomited out the food he took into his mouth." Yunchuan walked behind her and said softly.
"What?" Hong, who was resisting the grape vine, was stunned. A vine found the right opportunity to leave a blood mark on her face. Hong could clearly feel that the grape vine tonight was more powerful than the grape vine last night. "The Duke's request was to invite everyone to dinner. Shanfeng only drank wine and was judged by the Duke as not having dinner. He disobeyed the Duke's request and was killed by strengthened grapevines at night."
"You...what do you mean..." Hong turned around in disbelief.
"Hong, you are very good. But the results of tonight's assessment are out. Tomorrow... I will convey my gratitude to Mu Chen for you." The young man's voice was still gentle, but in Hong's ears it sounded like a murderous ghost.
She jumped away from Yunchuan and took out seven or eight daggers burning with flames. Those daggers floated in the air and surrounded the woman, temporarily repelling the grapevine attack.
"Improper clothing, improper expression, and unskilled etiquette movements." Yun Chuan looked at her with a smile, and the black vines docilely climbed to his side and rubbed the leaves on his palms affectionately.
"You...you and the Duke are in the same group...no...impossible...aren't you a player?" Huge fear suddenly emerged from his heart. Hong shook his head, his teeth chatted up and down, and his whole body shivered uncontrollably.
"Of course I am a player, but not just a player." Yun Chuan brushed away the daggers that kept attacking him, and touched Hong's cheek with his long and strong fingers.
"Although you are weak, you want to protect me. Even if it is just to thank Mu Chen, I still thank you. So..."
A cold kiss gently fell on the woman's trembling forehead.
"I grant you a painless death."
Hong Wei opened her eyes slightly. She felt as if she had fallen into a light and sweet space. Her eyes were filled with bright golden colors. She was so happy...so happy...
"Hong, let's go home." Shanfeng ran out of nowhere and pulled Hong up.
"Can... go home?" Hong blinked and nodded heavily.
"Surprise! Tomorrow's hot search booking, the chief executive of Xingchen publicly kissed the female player." Thistle lazily sat on the grapevine with his legs crossed and watched Yun Chuan put the smiling girl on the ground.
"It's just the forehead... I don't mind giving them a more comfortable ending." Yunchuan shrugged, "And... she did give me a brilliant idea."
"Oh? Tell me in detail~" Thistle tilted his head with interest.
"For example... the boss's canary." Yunchuan snapped his fingers, and the black vines fiercely dug into his shoulders, and blood spattered everywhere and instantly soaked a large area of his clothes red.
With the rapid loss of blood, the already fair skin gradually becomes pale.
"I'm going to find my bosses. Where are they?" The black-haired young man imitated Sisle and tilted his head.
"We are currently on the second floor of the west tower. If you go up the stairs on the left now and go forward three hundred meters, you will meet them." Thistle mobilized the vines to drag Hong into the darkness.
……
"Huh." Liu Ruoyu withdrew the flame in her hand and wiped the sweat from her forehead. "Finally done."
"The skills are good and the props are also good." She raised her eyebrows and looked at Mu Chen who was wiping the blue dagger.
"That's ridiculous." The dagger in Mu Chen's hand was given to him by Nan Sheng in the previous dungeon. It was downgraded by Yunchuan before entering this dungeon, but it is still very useful.
"Well..." Ning Ning trotted over the debris on the ground and ran to the two of them. "We are now on the second floor of the west tower, still some distance from the bedroom."
"It's just past twelve o'clock, we still have a long time." Liu Ruoyu frowned and looked at the dark corridor. "Did you hear any sounds..."
"Bang!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud noise from upstairs. A twisted section of the railing fell like a cannonball at the feet of the three of them.
"Not good." Mu Chen rushed out almost reflexively and grabbed the white figure that fell from upstairs.
"What did you do..." Mu Chen struggled to pull up the young man who was soaked in blood.
Yun Chuan closed his eyes and dug into his arms. Large streams of blood poured out of his body, and the pungent smell of rust rushed straight into his brain.
"Hong...Hong was taken away...save me..."
‘I’m going to die, you idiot! ’
Yun Chuan tremblingly grabbed Mu Chen's collar. On the surface, he was asking for help as he was dying, but on the inside, there was a sound of pleasure.
"What did you do to her?" Mu Chen asked him in a low voice while taking out the recovery potion and pouring it into his mouth.
‘I didn’t do anything, but she failed the assessment and was wiped out by the grapevine. But as a fellow player, it wouldn’t be wrong if I was unscathed. ’
'And from now on, you have to start protecting me. I created a new persona for myself. ’
"What?" Mu Chen hugged Yun Chuan and quickly avoided the whipped grapevine. Because the players present were all tested players, the power of the grapevine was greatly weakened, and he was quickly burned by Liu Ruoyu's flames and retreated. .
Yun Chuan raised his hands and hugged Mu Chen's neck. He blinked and showed an aggrieved expression. Two lines of tears and blood instantly gushed out.
‘It’s the boss’s canary. I think it’s quite interesting. I can try it out in the future. ’
(End of chapter)
The author said: Hong was destined to die because she was eliminated. Chuan Chuanzi could not save her and had no obligation to save her. She just chose a happy way to die for her.
Moreover, Hong saw a male servant following them out but did not come forward because she knew that the male servant was very strong and chose to retreat. This also made Chuan Chuanzi a little dissatisfied, so she released the pressure to make Hong feel Extreme fear.
Don't say that Kawakawako is cold-blooded just because he outranks the players~ Because Kawakawako himself is the boss, his outlook on life is different from that of normal people.
