Chapter 289: The Dense Forest Frontier

The Reverse God was quiet for about a minute or so, he raised his hand to rub his wooden stiff face and squeezed out a forced smile, " Mr. Bai Liu, you're joking ......"

Bai Liu interrupted the Reverse God without hesitation, "You have a lie detector scale, don't you? You can take it out and try it."

Against the Gods: "......"

Bai Liu was so sure of himself that several members of the assassination sequence, who had not believed him at first, began to waver, and they looked at each other for a long time before Bai Jiamu reached for a balance.

Bai Jiamu looked steadily at Bai Liu: "You married Spades yesterday?"

Bai Liu smiled without changing his face, "Yes."

The scales are slowly tipping to the [true] side.

A long silence fell over the room, and Bai Jiamu's face cracked as he held the scales up.

The Reverse God slowly raised his hand to cover his face, took a deep, deep breath, and then lowered his hand again.

He aged ten years in a flash and asked, in a mournful tone, "Yes, did Spades force you to do it?"

Bai Liu was eerily silent for a moment, then replied, "You could say yes."

The scales have tipped back to the [true] side.

Bai Jiamu's eyes almost looked as if they were about to swallow this unbelievable scale alive.

The Reverse God raised his hand to cover his face again, and he bowed in apology, "I'm sorry that our team's main attacker Spades has caused you any trouble, Mr Bai Liu."

"He, he probably, didn't know much about things like marriage, thought it might be some kind of game or something and didn't mean to force you ......" the Reverse God looked up and tried to explain.

Bai Liu interrupted amiably, "He forced his way through eighteen boxes of condoms, and asked me to keep seven of them."

Once again, the scales tipped in [True]'s favour.

Bai Jiamu's face remained completely blank, and he held the scales up in a daze.

A member of the team behind Bai Jiamu, who had been forcing himself to cover his mouth to keep from making a sound, couldn't help but let out a particularly loud breath of cold air: "Eighteen boxes! That's a lot!"

The Reverse God turned his head and smacked the team member on the head to shut him up, then took a deep breath, adjusted his distorted facial expression, and whispered to the other team members.

"What to do, we didn't give Spades a physical hygiene lesson on sexuality before, and it still came to this, he forced himself on other players!"

"I said I'd bang him then! He doesn't know anything, he's easily fooled by bad women!"

"We all thought it was impossible to be fooled by a woman when we saw the way Spades treated Hearts! He's met Hearts a dozen times and every time he's mistaken Hearts for him."

" Bai Jiamu won't let me show Spades the film! It's all Bai Jiamu's fault!"

"It won't help if you release it, the man is a man and all that heterosexual inventory of yours won't have any teaching effect on Spades."

"What's the urgent matter? Spades forced this man, and this man came to the door!"

"Are we responsible for that? What's the normal procedure for this kind of thing where someone from our own family screws someone from outside, and the outside person comes to us and we send the other person off?"

"Ohhhhhhh! I know this!"

The Reverse God turned his head with a solemn look on his face, he crossed his arms against his knees and looked straight at Bai Liu with an unfathomable gaze: " Mr. Bai Liu, you have five million points to leave Spades."

Bai Liu: "......"

After a brief silence, Bai Liu replied quickly, "Five million points now, and I promise not to harass Spades again, or bother with this marriage."

Both the Reverse God and Bai Jiamu behind him looked puzzled - it wasn't quite what they had in mind.

--Shouldn't it be a rant about how you can use money to insult my character or something like that?

Bai Liu, who didn't feel insulted by the five million points, smiled pleasantly: "But the more important thing about this visit is that I want to work with you to teach Spades a painful lesson about failure, which I'm sure is what you want."

Bai Liu said this, and the Reverse God finally squared his shoulders and said, "What are you going to do?"

The other end.

Alex sits silently in his wheelchair, his legs bandaged, and now sits quietly by Guy's bedside, staring without a word at Guy, unconscious and breathing weakly in his hospital bed.

A nurse next to him reminded, "He is seriously injured, there are thirteen shrapnel fragments in his body that have just been removed, the anaesthetic effect has not yet worn off and he is still sleeping, you will have to wait a while if you want to talk to him."

Alex shook his head gently, "No need for him to wake up."

"Can I have a moment alone with him?" Alex looked up at this nurse.

The nurse smiled understandingly, "Sure, I'll change the medicine in an hour, is that enough time?"

Alex nodded, "Thank you."

The nurse waved her hand to indicate that no thanks were necessary as she lifted the curtain and turned to leave.

Alex and Guy were the only ones left in the tent. Alex sat quietly by the bed for a while and then moved his wheelchair to the head of the bed after a long time.

He reached up and lifted the white bedding and Alex saw Guy's left hand at his side, the silver ring on his ring finger gleaming, unstained by any stain.

Alex reached out his left hand with the ring on it, as if to take Guy's left hand, but in the end it just trembled and hovered over it for a long time.

Something invisible stopped Alex from clenching Guy's hand, even though he had done this a thousand times before.

Alex took a deep breath as he looked away and withdrew his hand, opening his mouth as if to himself, "...... Guy, I know you were never on my side, your heart belongs to the other side."

"-is on the side of the righteous, the weak indigenous side, and you told me early on that you would prefer to be a volunteer." Alex smiled miserably and he shook his head, "Even though the man you loved most was killed by the natives, it still didn't change your opinion."

"Your your beloved, you are all of the noble class, all good people, all coming here to devote yourselves to helping these backward natives out of the grip of the nobility."

"You are so similar in your ideals, your pursuits, your origins, and even in the nobility of this."

Alex murmured, "If he hadn't died, you would have been made for each other."

"It's not my turn to get you as a poor boy who had to carry you back from his first battle."

Alex bowed his head, his hand on the quilt and shook Guy's hand very gently under it, "But I love you just as much as he does, Guy."

His eyes gradually filled with tears, "...... I know he proposed to you before the accident, and you never told me, but I know, Guy, you're a guy who can't hide his words when he's drunk, and you told me all about it."

"But you didn't say yes to him because you felt he deserved someone better than someone like you."

Alex's eyes slid slowly down the side of his nose and his voice caught in his throat, "- so that day, after failing to propose to you and not wanting to go back, he went in a depressed mood to check the safety equipment at the factory and happened to meet the natives who were arguing in front of the factory."

"He died in that argument with the ring he proposed to you with in his hand."

"His parents and brothers went mad, and after hurrying here beat and abused you, the man who brought their son and brother to hell, and even locked you up in that factory too, trying to burn you with the natives they thought had killed him."

"You escaped with the help of the natives who were imprisoned in there, and they knew you were the love of the factory manager and gave everything they had to help you escape first, but you were found by the vigilante patrol when you tried to turn your head to help the natives."

"You were forcibly pulled away by patrols and watched as the natives who had helped you were burned to death."

Alex bowed his head against the edge of the hospital bed as he sobbed, "I know why you betrayed, Guy, you were tormented by the fires of that time all the time, you were blaming yourself for your cowardice, you were blaming yourself for running away, so you chose to marry me before the Great War - you didn't want to give me another leave me with a sorry ending."

"But Guy, it shouldn't be like this ...... you don't deserve to die, and neither should they."

Alex's muffled, sorrowful voice echoed through the small tent, outside which stood a line of grim-looking natives who pressed themselves against the side of the tent to eavesdrop, then spoke to each other in a nasal slang with a distinct look of hatred on their faces.

"The guy in there, Guy, who just came to join us today, is the one responsible for the death of his companions in the factory in the first place!"

"He watched as the companion who saved him was burnt to death!"

"What kind of relationship he has with that factory manager! He is as much an outcast from God as that factory manager! Both deserve to die!"

"He's just like that factory manager, a hypocrite who wants to usurp my territory and make us slaves under the guise of helping us!"

"If they didn't exist, we wouldn't have been so violated at all."

"Slay him, the one who has been forsaken by God, before God's blessing will return to us again!"

A frenzied, violent impulse soon spreads among the traditional natives, and Bai Liu reaches the edge of the tent before the group can lift the curtain and rush in to kill Guy.

Bai Liu is followed by the Reverse God, with a tense Liu Jiayi on his right.

Bai Liu examined the eavesdropping natives with amusement and asked kindly, "What can I do for you?"

The traditional natives seemed to fear Bai Liu, and as soon as they saw him, they bowed their heads and backed away, but as they did so, they kept glancing at the tent in front of them with a sinister look.

Bai Liu's meaningful Buming gaze glanced over the natives before turning to smile and nod goodbye to the Reverse God before leading Liu Jiayi into Alex's tent.

After crying bitterly, Alex fell asleep with her head on the edge of Guy's bed, who seemed to be waking up, not sleeping very soundly, frowning and murmuring in his sleep, "...... Alex."

Bai Liu introduces the npc pair to Liu Jiayi: " Alex, another mainline npc, Guy, the person he married."

Liu Jiayi hugged her chest, tilted her head and examined Bai Liu from top to bottom, raising an eyebrow and asking, "I'm more curious about you and your marriage partner now, eighteen boxes of condoms?"

Bai Liu: "......"

Bai Liu coughed calmly, "A condom is the name for a special kind of balloon, and using eighteen boxes means he blew up eighteen boxes of balloons for me."

"Oh." Liu Jiayi jumps slowly towards the bed and sits down, her little legs wobbling, "Do you think I've never been taught proper physiological knowledge?"

Liu Jiayi smiles a very good and cute smile:" The first lesson Hearts taught me was about sex between any two human biological genders, mainly to circumvent some of the dogby players in this game who have developed a special desire for me."

"Oh, and this sexual knowledge sometimes includes some very sexual inhuman monsters." Liu Jiayi adds with a sweet smile, "After all, people are free to have fetishes like using eighteen boxes of condoms in one night, don't you think so, Bai Liu ?"

Bai Liu: "......"

Hearts, are you doing the right thing?
