Even though Wei XVI was forced into the game by them, and has shown enough sincerity, the necessary caution is still intact.

Xiaochi Chi , Ying Lou replied in unison, "Twisted."

The duo lied so tightly and word for word that both froze for a moment.

Ying Lou reaction is not slow, the tone of natural added did not finish the words: "Uh ...... I can only distort the steel class of hard material, kill the human body is not able to do."

That's not a lie.

The complexity and intricacy of the human body is equivalent to a supercomputer that can perform one billion billion floating point operations per second. Even if Ying Lou can maintain the peak level of computing speed, want to remove a person's arm, it is necessary to sleeplessly calculate a full eight hours on the person.

"Offensive psychic ability!" Wei XVI's eyes lit up, "Awesome!"

"...... also has limits."

Ying Lou raised his hand, and uncovered the mask on the left side of his face a little.

"It will become like this if it is moved without restraint."

Seeing the scars across the bottom, Wei XVI sucked in a breath of cold air, could not help but empathize with his own face, and turned to Xiaochi Chi, waiting for his answer.

Xiaochi Chi replied, "Teleportation."

Wei sixteen a high five, a face of color: "I guess it is! That time you blinked and disappeared, I guessed you could be instantaneous ......"

As he spoke, Wei XVI intended to head out of the forest.

Passing by the corpse, Wei XVI showed a regretful expression, a slight sigh, picked up a leaf, sprinkled on the ground can not be distinguished from the head or buttocks of the broken pieces.

"Dude, you want to live, but so do we."

Probably in Wei XVI's eyes, these two people who suddenly appeared and aimed to kill him, were two contestants who wanted to fight for a chance to live.

Like a pawn on a chessboard, thinking that it is by its own power to escape from life, unaware that there is a manipulative hand above the board.

After a short burial, Wei XVI skillfully unfolded the set of porcelain business: "Where are you people ah. I, of A city, turned out to be a programmer. Ha ha, can't see I work it. Other people say I look face tender. Guess what, I used to do part-time work, into the high school delivery, the gatekeeper took me as a high school student, but also asked me which class I was ......"

In his monologue stage, Wei XVI does not need others to talk to him.

Ying Lou, carrying Xiaochi Chi on her back, quietly follows behind the noisy Wei Magpie.

He looked back at Xiaochi Chi with half a face, resting his left hand on the bend of his knee while raising his right hand and waving it in front of Xiaochi Chi's eyes.

Xiaochi Chi understood that he wanted to give the two a high five for the tacit understanding they had just shared.

Xiaochi Chi clenched his legs around his waist, raised his left hand and touched his right palm, but subconsciously misplaced it, and his fingers fell between Ying Lou's fingers.

Ying Lou's fingertips snapped forward just in time to catch a hand.

He doesn't force him either, only grips loosely.

Xiaochi Chi can escape whenever he wants.

But Xiaochi Chi didn't pull his hand back.

Ying Lou felt Xiaochi Chi's fingertips stiffen for a few seconds, then regained their softness, and his index finger went forward, pecking the back of Ying Lou's hand as if knocking on the door.

He whispered in his ear, "...... I'm going to drop it."

Ying Lou laughed and withdrew his hand in a gentlemanly manner, holding Xiaochi Chi's clearly coiled and stable knees: "Hold me well."

Xiaochi Chi rested her face on his back to cool down and muttered, "Good."

Was walking, Wei XVI suddenly turned back: "Take the liberty to ask ......"

Ying Lou and Xiaochi Chi look up at the same time.

He said, "You two are a pair, huh?"

Ying Lou : "......"

Xiaochi Chi : "......"

Wei XVI also noticed that the question was a bit abrupt: "I do not discriminate against homosexuals. Ah, I mean, compared to hetero discrimination, now homosexuality has long been no longer a problem. ......"

After realizing that he was getting darker and darker, he simply broke the can: "...... I'll just ask casually."

Xiaochi Chi : "No."

Ying Lou : "Yes."

The ...... duo's tacit understanding is officially declared broken.

Wei XVI looked back and forth between the two, a bit silly.

Ying Lou said with a stern attitude, "I think so. But clearly there is work to be done."

This is also a way to give Xiaochi Chi a leg up.

Wei XVI's reflex arc is a bit long, dragging his voice "oh", began to analyze the key points.

"You ......" he pointed a finger at Ying Lou , and then at Xiaochi Chi with a fervent nod, "are chasing him."

Xiaochi Chi : "......"

Ying Lou : "That's right."

Xiaochi Chi : "...... is gone."

Wei XVI: "Wow, shy."

Xiaochi Chi : "...... don't talk can suffocate you."

Wei XVI said incomparably serious: "Can."

Xiaochi Chi began to think seriously about which formula would increase the viscosity of the air and could stick to his mouth with unerring accuracy.

Ying Lou also knew that the one on his back was not amusing, so he said to relieve him: "Where are we walking to?"

At this time, the three have been out of the woods, it is the time when the road ahead is not clear.

Xiaochi Chi jumped off Ying Lou, took two steps out against the heavy air pressure, set the watch on his wrist to casino mode, and gazed at it.

Ying Lou made the same move with him.

Only Wei XVI is confused, see the two are looking at the table, he also raised to look at a while, can not see a reason, simply came up: "What are you all looking at?"

Xiaochi Chi didn't even look up: "Seeking protection."

Wei XVI: "Huh?"

Xiaochi Chi tapped the screen with his knuckles, "Look at the existing death toll and see if there are any of the people who just tried to kill you."

Wei XVI fixed his eyes to take a closer look.

From yesterday noon to now, 6 people committed suicide and 12 people were killed.

Out of 101 people, 83 remain.

Each person's area of death and time of death are marked by a line of red letters.

And in the D20 area, it shows 0 deaths.

In the real-time pop-up area, everyone was betting on the treasure in a frenzy, but no one discussed a storm that had just occurred in the D20 area.

Wei XVI: "Wait, that's not right."

Xiaochi Chi said, "It's not right. Your odds themselves are not low, which proves that quite a few people, after seeing your powers, find them interesting enough to place a small bet on you. Since the bet was placed, you have value to them. The scale of the battle just now was not small, but neither did your odds change in the slightest, nor did anyone discuss the value of your battle or your psychic abilities, or even talk about the two of us ......"

He paused: "I think the only explanation is that these gambling - gamblers, with a large number of participants in the early stages, will only choose areas where there are battles taking place to watch. If we take a macro overview of the whole picture from their perspective, we might just be a group of scattered, and constantly moving red dots."

"...... It seemed to them that you were the only red dot moving in the D20 area when the battle took place and nothing was happening."

Wei XVI is a rough person, but still some small intelligence, coupled with Xiaochi Chi's analysis, how can he not understand what has happened?

He said in shock, "Those two people who came to kill me are not participants in the game?"

Xiaochi Chi : "Not to mention the first person you killed, do you think that the second person who went after you looked like a rookie playing a killing game for the first time."

Wei XVI frowned: "I thought he had been a soldier ......"

The "organizers" of this killing show are the only ones who can unwittingly transport foreign psychics into this world.

He was getting confused: "No, I haven't broken any rules, so why would the agency want to kill me? Besides, if they really want to kill me, they can just stick a needle in my neck."

Xiaochi Chi said without blinking an eye, "That's your business," without mentioning that Ying Lou had managed to block the poison injection function on his collar.

Ying Lou watched in silence as Xiaochi Chi coaxed Wei XVI around step by step.

As early as when they were waiting for "Anyi Bai" to return, but accidentally found Wei XVI into D20, Xiaochi Chi proposed to take Wei XVI's back.

At first, Ying Lou wasn't so keen on the idea: "We can inform him to leave with us when we leave."

Xiaochi Chi said, "If the agency finds no one in D20, they will most likely pull past footage to see who killed the three of them."

Ying Lou: "I don't think it's very likely that the video exists. I have read Anyi Bai's memory, this world's technology development is not that advanced. This virtual world map is very large, can achieve the effect of real-time viewing without lag, is already the top level, and then real-time video recording, the information flow to be processed is too large, the server can not support."

Xiaochi Chi: "'Not very likely to exist' is still the same as yes."

Ying Lou is speechless.

Xiaochi Chi said, "So, I couldn't take the risk."

"Beyond that, I have reasons why I must do this."

"First." Xiaochi Chi raised a finger, "assuming the existence of the video, no matter what action we take, once we enter D20 at this time, Wei XVI will be implicated: if we go to remind him now, the agency is likely to regard him as our accomplice; if we do not remind him, he is unlikely to leave D20 voluntarily. In the end, the agency may still kill him once and for all. Therefore, it is better to let his accidental intrusion become an opportunity to take us out smoothly."

"Second, we need an ally. I believe that an alliance after experiencing life and death is more solid than a nodding acquaintance in a peaceful state."

"The third ......" Xiaochi Chi held up a third finger, "I suspect him."

Ying Lou was stunned and peeked out from their hiding place to look at Wei XVI who was drinking water from the stream: "What happened to him?"

Xiaochi Chi said, "Do you remember how far the mobile card moved us out?"

After his reminder, Ying Lou immediately understood: "...... fifty kilometers."

"Yes, fifty kilometers." Xiaochi Chi said, "How did he manage to walk those fifty kilometers in less than 12 hours?"

At that time, Ying Lou did not know about Wei XVI's psychic ability.

He said, "Suppose he could teleport? Or run as fast as that 'observer'?"

Xiaochi Chi : "That's too much of a coincidence. With such a big map, how did the person sitting across from me in the car manage to find me here by chance?"

"Is he so suspicious that you still want to pull him as an ally?"

"Isn't it good to pull suspicious people from the shadows into the light?"

Ying Lou is still more used to speculating about people from a good standpoint: "...... If, if he is really a good person, you pull him down like this, are you not afraid that his life is in danger?"

"If so ah ......" Xiaochi Chi leaned against a tree, closing his eyes slightly, "Since he is in my game, I will not let him die."

......

Ying Lou, who had been released from her memories, looked at Xiaochi Chi, who was fiddling with his watch with carelessness, and felt a bit helpless.

I also do not know whether this person is thin-skinned or heavy-skinned.

"The truth is that you were targeted by the agency for unknown reasons. And now, the news of the death of those two people has probably been learned by the agency as well. And we, who saved you, have become grasshoppers in the same boat."

Xiaochi Chi made a brief closing statement.

Wei XVI is also straightforward, skipping the pointless questioning and directly asking his main concern: "Then what should we do next?"

Xiaochi Chi said, "Didn't I say, seek protection."

Wei XVI: "...... to whom? Who can protect us?"

Xiaochi Chi flipped his wrist and lit up the gambling information on his watch, "They."

Wei XVI: "Who are they?"

Xiaochi Chi : "Money."

He asked a dumbfounded Wei XVI, "Do you know how much each bet they placed was worth?"

Wei XVI: "I've seen them chatting. According to our country's exchange rate, each bet starts at a thousand."

Xiaochi Chi sighed, "Quite a lot."

Wei XVI was a little anxious: "Yes, yes, quite a few. How do we get them to protect us?"

"Those people, they're not paying for their lives." Xiaochi Chi said, "Then I have to make them notice how much our lives are worth. The more people who buy our lives, the more eyes there are on us. That way, even if the agencies want to get at us, they won't find an opportunity."

For some reason, Wei XVI had some bad feeling: "How do you plan ...... to get their attention to us?"

Xiaochi Chi : "It's very simple. Just make them lose all their money."

After saying that, he clicked on the names of those who were at the top of the odds, while paying close attention to the pop-ups on the side, seemingly deliberating on what to choose.

Wei XVI drifted off and drew in a breath of cold air: "You're going to kill those people they paid a lot of money for bets on?"

Xiaochi Chi raised her eyebrows and asked in return, "No?"

Wei XVI: "...... What is the difference between your ...... words like this and those who wantonly kill people? We just need to form a small team and be ready to defend ourselves ......"

"Oh, when these activists kill everyone else and finally come to kill you, and you kill them, you'll be defending yourself and won't have to be condemned by your conscience." Xiaochi Chi said, "That will comfort that good heart of yours, won't it."

Wei XVI choked.

"Keeping those people will only create more deaths. Most of these 101 people are from the peaceful world, and if these shit-stirrers didn't exist, how many people do you think would actually enjoy killing people?"

Wei XVI hesitated: "You are ...... trying to solve the people in the top of the ranking, and we all live in peace?"

Xiaochi Chi doesn't say anything, but smiles.

Wei XVI: "That's too romanticistic. Didn't the agency say that only three people are allowed to go out ......"

"Those are the rules set by the agency." Xiaochi Chi said, "According to my rules, anyone who is willing to join my squad, I have a way to get them out alive."

Wei XVI categorically: "This is impossible, you are talking in your sleep."

Xiaochi Chi is noncommittal: "Then you can pretend I'm dreaming."

At this point, whether Wei XVI can understand or not, Ying Lou understands.

He used his 061 access, turned on his voice, and said to Xiaochi Chi in his head, "I agree with you."

"Teacher Six." Xiaochi Chi used that long-lost title, with the endings still rising upward, sounding almost a little petulant, "You still understand me."

Ying Lou said in a deep voice: "Your real target, is the 'catfish', right?"

Quickly, he amended his statement, "No, it's not just 'catfish' either. You're hitting multiple birds with one stone."

Xiaochi Chi also did not intend to hide anything in front of Ying Lou and said to himself, "First, killing the top oddsmakers can make those who gamble lose every penny. They are also too happy. Sitting at home, blowing on the air conditioner, making fun of people's lives and deaths doesn't sit well with me."

Ying Lou simply imitated his strong and powerful tone and said, "Secondly, killing those who are at the top of the odds will safeguard the personal safety of other low psychics. These people are afraid that they have already found out the truth about the 'protection plan'. The more they kill Alterans, the more they will discover the progress of their own strength, the more they will understand the meaning of the agency setting up this great escape, and the more they will become more aggressive and carry out endless slaughter - by solving them, they can save the lives of more Alterans who do not want to kill."

Xiaochi Chi continued, "Third, fishing for 'fish'."

Ying Lou added, "Fishing for 'catfish'."

" Anyi Bai" went out for a trip and got precious information.

He not only brought back information about the 'Alien Protection Program', but also confirmed through his investigation that the 'observer' named Qingshu Lu was not lying.

The "catfish" are indeed divided into two groups, one officially bred by the agency, and one arranged among the 101 people. These two groups of "catfish" do not share information with each other, no one knows the identity of the other.

The institution that " Anyi Bai" entered is the official "catfish" location.

The "catfish" that are mixed in the team, most likely also with Anyi Bai their body in reality, lying in the same secret place, together with a deep sleep.

Xiaochi Chi said, "Since the 'catfish' in the team have secretly signed a cooperation treaty with the agency, they must have in their hands the same as the official 'catfish', holding something like a teleportation aperture that can save their lives at The token that can save their lives at critical moments ...... for example, can pull their virtual consciousness back to their bodies for a short time or something."

Ying Lou's thoughts flew, catching up with Xiaochi Chi at every turn: "You mean, the iron sign?"

Xiaochi Chi: "Think about why Anyi Bai had to die in the last life."

Ying Lou recalls what happened before Anyi Bai's death: "...... because Anyi Bai took the two 'catfish' iron cards. The two new 'catfish' came to recover the iron plates."

Xiaochi Chi : "So, our trio is going to kill the top ranked people and make the noise as big as possible. That way, 'Catfish' will come and kill us even if they are trying to save themselves. We will then have a chance to hold them hostage and see if there is a chance to use the iron sign to make 'Anyi Bai' teleport once more, go outside, turn off the controller and free all the imprisoned aliens."

Xiaochi Chi's decisive and determined charm when he says the plan word by word makes him look as if he is shining.

Ying Lou's tone was already one of suppressed appreciation and tenderness: "Let as many aliens as possible regain their freedom, this is the fourth bird you've shot down with a stone, right?"

"There's one more." Xiaochi Chi said, "...... fifth to catch all the 'catfish' for 'Anyi Bai' and Anyi Bai two people, avenging their past lives."

The two of you have an unbelievably smooth connection.

By this point, the plan took shape, and both were silent.

After a short silence, Xiaochi Chi said, "This plan is still too risky, and as Wei XVI said, it will take dreamlike good luck to make it happen. Will you help me take that risk?"

Ying Lou was speechless for a moment.

...... He just hates that he can't kiss him now.

Xiaochi Chi waited patiently for Ying Lou's reply until his soft voice sounded in his ear, as if he was kissing his ear with his voice.

"As long as you want to." Ying Lou said, "...... as long as I can."
