Chapter 136 – 135: “You’re Not a Hero?!
Naturally, it was as if a couple madly in love were embraced and kissing under a street light in the night, unable to restrain their affection.
The whole process was smooth and flowing.
“Down.”
The Tuberculosis Rabbit stepped back a few paces, squatted on the ground with a cigarette in his mouth, and looked expectantly at the middle-aged man who was now even more unsteady after being stabbed in the abdon, wondering when the man would finally fall.
“You…”
The middle-aged man, who’d never expected the Tuberculosis Rabbit to attack him, was now on his knees, powerless in a pool of blood after such a Fatal Strike, and with anger and confusion in his eyes, he struggled to look up at the Tuberculosis Rabbit, just about to say sothing.
Then he suddenly realized sothing, disbelief flashing in the depths of his eyes, and his voice trembled with frustration.
“You’re not a hero?!”
He had thought the reason the map hadn’t ended was due to the Tuberculosis Rabbit’s sloppy finishing blows, but it turned out that the real reason the map hadn’t ended was simply because the Tuberculosis Rabbit wasn’t a hero.
That was the real reason the map hadn’t ended.
“Ah, indeed I’m not.”
The Tuberculosis Rabbit casually nodded, tilted his head with an air of nonchalance and said, “Sorry for deceiving you. I’ll apologize to you in the next life.”
“My identity is that of an ordinary person.”
“Once you die, the map should be able to end.”
“How… How is this possible!”
The middle-aged man, covering the stab wound in his abdon with a dagger plunged deep into him and blood gushing unstoppably through his fingers, stared straight at the Tuberculosis Rabbit with an incredulous and ferocious look.
“If you’re not a hero and just an ordinary person, why didn’t your expression change at all when I killed players from your team, and moreover, why did you even kill with your own hands?”
“The victory goal for an ordinary person is to kill all enemy players, isn’t it? Why did you kill your own teammates too?”
“Oh, that thing?”
The Tuberculosis Rabbit, a bit bored, spit the burned-out cigarette butt into a pool of blood to the side, and while trimming the hangnail on his index finger with the dagger, he said absent-mindedly, “You weren’t killing , so why should I be perturbed?”
“As for why I killed teammates?”
“I had no idea which one among the teammates was the spy; it was simpler just to kill them all, ensuring the spy would be among the dead.”
“Although the victory goal is to kill all enemy players, killing all teammates should also allow for a successful exit from the map, I suppose. Since I’d killed already, I just went a little further.”
“If that made you mistake my identity for that of a hero, then I’m sorry.”
“…”
The middle-aged man’s body slowly tensed and, unwilling to the end, he collapsed heavily into the pool of blood.
The Tuberculosis Rabbit, with a hint of aningful amusent in his eyes, slowly stood up and walked towards the body of the middle-aged man.
Just as the Tuberculosis Rabbit approached the middle-aged man’s side.
The next second—
The supposedly dead middle-aged man suddenly lifted his head, eyes full of spite and venom as he clenched the dagger in his hand, grabbing the leg that had stepped in front of him, and with the last of his strength, he made a stab!
He simply didn’t have the strength to stand.
He couldn’t aim for a vital spot.
But he was satisfied to inflict a severe injury on his assailant before death; if soone was going to kill him, they were going to lose so teeth doing it!
“Psh!”
The dagger buried itself to the hilt in the ankle and blood gushed forth. A flicker of satisfaction crossed the middle-aged man’s eyes. He tried to lift his head to see the expression on the Tuberculosis Rabbit’s face, but before he could fully raise it, his body suddenly stiffened.
That strike had drained all his Vitality.
His head fell powerlessly into the pool of blood.
“Tsk.”
The Tuberculosis Rabbit crouched down, turned over the middle-aged man’s body, and looking at his mouth corners turned up in triumph from a successful plot, he murmured, “This kid doesn’t think he achieved so great feat before dying, does he?”
Then he shrugged, tossed the corpse with the dagger still in its ankle to the side, patted off his clothes, and stood up as if nothing had happened.
The middle-aged man’s dying blow hadn’t landed on him, but on the dead body he was holding in his hand.
The middle-aged man’s act of playing dead was too obvious, and he had also noticed the man pulling out the dagger from his stomach and hiding it in his palm.
So he decided to toy with the man a bit, not expecting that the man would excitedly die before the ga was up.
After doing all this.
He stood still and stretched, moving his limbs amidst the bodies, yawning a long yawn and smacking his lips, “It’s ti to head ho, I wonder if Yi has returned.”
The next second—
A voice prompt eerily echoed in his ear.
’Map Evaluation’: As an ordinary person, you’ve killed all the players and successfully exited the map, congratulations for reducing the death rate of this map a bit more.
Your identity isn’t that of a hero, but your actions exceed those of a hero.
Therefore, you receive the title ’Public Enemy.’
’Map Reward’: clean grey stone*2, Points 5000, Level 2 Enhancent Stone*10, Random C-class Prop Gift Pack*1.
With a flash of white light,
when the Tuberculosis Rabbit opened his eyes, he found himself back in the familiar rental room, and the first thing he saw was Yi’s silhouette standing in front of the window not far away. He couldn’t help but excitedly call out. Read new chapters at empire
“Yi!”
“Mmm.”
Hearing the noise behind him, Chen Yi turned around to look and subconsciously responded. When he saw that the Tuberculosis Rabbit’s clothes were completely soaked with blood, a flicker of panic crossed his eyes, and his voice beca slightly anxious, “Where are you hurt?”
“Are the injuries severe?”
“Quick, take off your clothes. I have healing items here.”
“I’m not hurt anywhere.”
The Tuberculosis Rabbit stood in place with a trouble-free deanor and spread his hands, casually saying, “Besides so superficial skin abrasions, there are no other injuries. Although this map prevents the use of skills and props, it should not be very difficult for us to clear.”
“This is soone else’s blood on ; it’s sticky. I need to take a quick shower.”
“Yi, are you injured?”
“…”
Chen Yi retracted his foot that he had initially extended, and stood calmly in place, casually covering the bandages completely by shaking the hem of his trousers, “I’m not injured either. A minor map like this would find it a bit difficult to injure .”
“But you can’t have this kind of overconfidence in the future. You still need to be as careful as possible.”
“Don’t worry, Yi, I understand. Can I go take a shower now?”
“Yes, go ahead. I’ve already taken one.”
“Okay.”
…
Only after the Tuberculosis Rabbit returned safely did Chen Yi breathe a sigh of relief. The heart that had been in his chest finally settled down.
This kind of map, where no one can use skills, undoubtedly creates the greatest distance between weak players and those like themselves in terms of skills and equipnt.
But for players like them, such maps are just a nuisance.
Luckily, with the title of Great Demon King, they no longer need to worry about being forcefully invited into this kind of cursed map.
At that mont, he also received another reply from Sword Without End.
“Yi, I haven’t found Wang Yii in Black Trench City, but I discovered so other things. I think it’s necessary to co and talk to you face to face. It’s important; I am already on my way.”
Chen Yi looked at the ssage without lingering on it for too long, just quickly giving the Tuberculosis Rabbit, who was still in the bathroom, a few instructions before getting up and heading towards the rooftop patio.
Not long ago, the Law Enforcent Bureau ca to their door and offered them a spacious garden villa in the urban area, but they didn’t accept it.
In reality, it was unnecessary for the Law Enforcent Bureau to intervene.
Strong players from various cities had already used their ans to move into houses that they couldn’t afford on a normal day.
However, Chen Yi and his companion were not particularly interested in this. They had grown accustod to living here; moving would be troubleso. Besides, where one sleeps doesn’t change much, and there really wasn’t a need to move to a villa for this reason.
Real estate had beco worthless.
With the number of surviving players, the entire city was full of empty houses. As long as you’re willing, you could pry open any door and move in without paying a penny.
As for things like property titles, they had long since beco useless paper.
Standing on the patio, Chen Yi, with one hand in his pocket, leaned on his cane and overlooked the city. The wind tonight was quite strong, with not a hint of heat but rather a coolness that made his clothes flutter loudly.
The weather tonight was also quite unusual.
It was only seven in the evening, yet the sky had already completely darkened, with large swathes of dark clouds gathering above the city, the howling wind hinting that a storm was on the horizon.
The weather forecasts had long since ceased operation.
But even without referring to the weather forecast, one could sense that a downpour was imminent.
It wasn’t long before,
Chen Yi saw Sword Without End, riding atop the Green Peak, speed towards his direction against the backdrop of the sky.
In a matter of seconds,
Sword Without End landed steadily on the patio, stepping off the Three-Foot Qingfeng, he took a deep breath before nervously starting, “I managed to arrive safely at last. If the matter weren’t so critical, I really wouldn’t have wanted to make the trip today.”
“I don’t know what’s going on, but today, the skies over every city I visited were filled with pitch-black clouds, with relentless wind and clear signs of an approaching downpour.”
“There were even continuous explosions of thunder in the black clouds.”
“Under such conditions, flying in midair really made worry about getting struck down by lightning.”
“I wonder if other cities are like this, too. This kind of weather feels so oppressive, making it very clear that under the power of nature, those things that humans take pride in are actually quite fragile.”
Sword Without End stood beside Chen Yi, gazing at the horizon and reflecting on this sentint.
Chen Yi glanced at Sword Without End and then offhandedly said, “Didn’t the world boss event reward you with a title?”
Above Sword Without End’s head, there was only the title he had seen the first ti they t.
“I have a sword, who dares to respond?”
In theory, there should be two titles above Sword Without End’s head. During the world boss event, Sword Without End had also received a limited-edition title.
