Chapter 131: Chapter 121 I’ve Caught You [Vote for Monthly Pass!]
Compared to passing minor levels, their primary goal was inevitably to revive these newly deceased players.
Their ultimate aim was the sa, otherwise, with so many deaths, the impact would be too great.
The crowd stared intently at the white paper; after a long ti, the added rule only twisted slightly and then remained still.
This indicated that the rule had been accepted by the ga rules.
Seeing this, Mu Rufeng also breathed a sigh of relief.
So, next, the most important thing to consider was making sure everyone involved in the ga could catch the handkerchief dropper.
“According to those who went to the fourth floor earlier, the one dropping the handkerchief must also be an abnormality. Like the cats and dogs in the first level, it’s probably at Level 3 Peak.”
“And it surely has its own thoughts. So, what do you think about us placing so soul banknotes behind us to slow this ghost down?” Zhao Rong suddenly proposed.
“It’s not likely because the ghost could just take our money first without dropping the handkerchief; rember, it can drop the handkerchief within three rounds,” Cheng Youlin shook his head.
“You’ve overlooked sothing. According to the rules, we need to hold hands. How can we throw money at that ti?” Zhang Xin pointed out.
“Throwing money is a minor issue. We can hold the money on our backs with ghost qi and shake the Ghost Power to disperse it when we need to.”
“The important thing is how we determine who has the handkerchief dropped behind them at the first instance,” Zhou Wen stated.
Yes, this was indeed the most crucial point.
“Don’t worry about that; I have a way to deal with it,” Mu Rufeng said.
“Oh? What way?”
At this, everyone turned their attention to Mu Rufeng.
Mu Rufeng didn’t speak but raised his hand, and a blood-colored bandage extended outward.
“My bandage can stretch a considerable distance and can easily circle around all of us.”
“The bandage can sense who has the handkerchief behind them and will alert you at that ti,” Mu Rufeng explained.
“Will this work? Won’t this violate the rules and get us eliminated?” The group expressed their uncertainty.
They were unsure whether it would go against the rules.
“Hehe, this is its own behavior; what does it have to do with ? It’s not bound to ,” Mu Rufeng shrugged.
The bandage seed to sense Mu Rufeng’s intentions and then actually detached from Mu Rufeng, landing on the ground, becoming a separate entity.
Impressed, the group had not expected Mu Rufeng’s bandage to be so magical.
“As for slowing it down by throwing money, hehe, there’s no need; I’ve got a way to handle it,” Mu Rufeng said with a smile.
“What way?” The crowd asked, all eyes on Mu Rufeng.
“Hehe, just wait and you’ll see,” Mu Rufeng teased.
“Alright, ti’s almost up; let’s take our positions,” Zhou Wen instructed, promptly seating himself on a spot of light.
Hearing this, the others quickly took their seats at their respective spots of light.
Once everyone was in position, the bandage imdiately circled around behind them, clinging tightly to their bottoms.
If the handkerchief was dropped behind one of them, the bandage would alert them imdiately.
Just then, a mass of black mist erged from nowhere in the center of the group, eventually coalescing into a child about a ter tall and a black phonograph.
No, not a child. The child’s face was actually that of a middle-aged man.
Clearly, it was a middle-aged abnormality with dwarfism.
“Jie jie jie~~!”
“This round has eight Contractors, now that’ll be fun. Contractors’ flesh is tasty to consu; ordinary people’s flavor is sowhat lacking,” Dwarf Ghost chuckled, as if reminiscing sothing.
“Dead midget, stop dawdling; get on with it,” Mu Rufeng spoke out.
“Hm?” The dwarf’s face suddenly changed, darkening terribly as he stared fixedly at Mu Rufeng.
“What did you call ?” The dwarf said, his face twisted with rage.
“Dead midget, dead dwarf, short winter lon?” Mu Rufeng listed out several nas he knew.
Seeing this, Cheng Youlin and the others were shocked and wanted to intervene, but then they appeared to recall sothing and shut their mouths, quietly waiting to see what would happen.
“Very good, kid, very good,” the dwarf laughed in anger, letting out three exclamations of ‘good’ before leaping high up and out of the circle.
At the sa ti, an old red handkerchief mysteriously appeared in his hand.
To call it red, it seed to be stained red with fresh blood.
As the countdown to the start of the ga ended, the song began.
“Drop the handkerchief, drop the handkerchief
Place it gently behind the little friend
Don’t tell him about it
Quick, quick, catch him
Quick, quick, catch him
Drop the handkerchief, drop the handkerchief
Place it gently behind the little friend
Don’t tell him about it”
Hurry, hurry, catch him,
Hurry, hurry, catch him,
Oops, oops, lose the handkerchief,
…
The familiar and cheerful song ca out from the record player.
And at the sa ti, the Dwarf Ghost grasped the handkerchief and began to circle around everyone.
At this mont, everyone’s expressions turned extrely serious, and their senses were pulled to the maximum, constantly watching the movents of the handkerchief.
In no ti, the Dwarf Ghost had made a round around everyone, but the bandage still didn’t give any hint.
It was during the second round that the Dwarf Ghost, passing by Mu Rufeng, let the handkerchief float gently to the ground.
Due to the Dwarf Ghost’s short stature, even though everyone was half-seated on the ground, they were barely half a head taller.
Therefore, the angle at which the handkerchief fell was exceptionally tricky; even Zhang Xin and the others, who were staring hard from across the way, had not noticed that the Dwarf Ghost had dropped the handkerchief.
Not even Mu Rufeng himself had noticed.
However, just because he hadn’t noticed, didn’t an the bandage under his butt hadn’t.
Almost the instant the handkerchief was tossed, the bandage nudged Mu Rufeng.
Mu Rufeng swung his hand back, instantly grabbed the handkerchief, and then imdiately stood up, quickly chasing after the Dwarf Ghost.
After the Dwarf Ghost dropped the handkerchief, he had already sped up, but he didn’t expect Mu Rufeng to get up so quickly.
Yet, the Dwarf Ghost was not at all panicked, for his speed was very fast.
But before the Dwarf Ghost could run a few steps, Mu Rufeng perford an Instantaneous Movent and appeared right in front of the Dwarf Ghost, then pressed down on the Dwarf Ghost’s head.
“I’ve caught you,” Mu Rufeng said with a smile looking at the Dwarf Ghost.
“You… you actually have the ability of Instantaneous Movent,” the Dwarf Ghost exclaid, then reacted and swung Mu Rufeng’s hand away.
It was known that at any level, his speed was definitely unparalleled, but if he encountered abilities like Instantaneous Movent, he would be at a complete loss.
“I was careless this ti; you’ve passed,” the Dwarf Ghost said venomously.
However, Mu Rufeng shook his head and said, “I don’t want to pass so quickly. I choose to resurrect a player who has been eliminated.”
Mu Rufeng pointed at a corpse and spoke.
“Resurrecting an eliminated player? Impossible, there’s no such thing… huh?” The Dwarf Ghost hadn’t finished speaking when his face suddenly changed dramatically.
The next second, the corpse Mu Rufeng pointed at flickered with a black light, and after the black light faded, a new living person appeared there.
If it weren’t for the torn collar and bloodstained clothes, no one would believe that this person had died before.
“How… how is this possible, the rules aren’t like this, the rules aren’t like this?” the Dwarf Ghost said incredulously.
But soon, a strange expression appeared on his face, as he had just checked the rules and found that they had changed.
[Ding! Eliminated player Liu Tai has been successfully resurrected.]
The revived man also looked bewildered, but a prompt also appeared in his mind, so his face suddenly beca extrely excited.
“Thank you, thank you for reviving ,” the man imdiately thanked Mu Rufeng.
But soon, his expression changed again, “This… how can this be, there’s a prompt telling to go back to the first level and continue the ga.”
“What should I do, what should I do, isn’t this a sure death for ?”
The man’s face suddenly turned extrely ugly, devoid of the joy of being resurrected.
Upon hearing this, Cheng Youlin and the others’ expressions turned sowhat strange.
Cheng Youlin spoke up, “Ha ha, you’re in luck, kiddo. The first round has been halted by us, you won’t have to participate in the ga if you go down.”
“Once we pass, everyone should be able to be saved.”
The condition for passing had yet to appear.
However, they had a hypothesis that probably, as long as one person passed all ga levels, then the instance should disappear.
And the rest of the people would either pass or be transported back to the real world, not as Reserve Players.
Of course, there was a second hypothesis: only the person who passed all the levels would be able to get out alive.
If it really was the second scenario, then those players stuck at the first level might be stuck there forever.
Such an outco was definitely unacceptable to everyone.
“Really? The first round has been halted?” the resurrected man exclaid, not daring to believe it.
“You’ll find out when you go there,” Cheng Youlin said with a chuckle.
“Alright, I’ll go right now.” After saying this, the man quickly walked towards the stairs.
However, as soon as he moved, he was tripped up and fell to the ground.
It was only then that he realized he was actually in the middle of a pile of corpses.
“Ah~~~!” He was startled by these bodies and cried out in terror, scrambling to get away.
While his legs flailed, he could barely stand up and could only slowly shuffle towards the stairs.
Seeing the man’s state, everyone else said nothing.
After all, having just gone through a matter of life and death and then seeing so many of their own kind’s bodies, it was good that they weren’t driven insane.
At this ti, Mu Rufeng took out a hundred yuan banknote and stuffed it directly into the hands of the Dwarf Ghost.
