Liu Jiayi tilted her head towards [Liu Jiayi], looking at her as if examining her: "There's something strange in what you just said."

"Even if you didn't get the soul note, with your abilities, especially Mu Sicheng's movement skills, it wouldn't be hard to run away from Bai Six, would it? Why do you have to have your soul note stolen before you can run, it doesn't make sense."

"You're even looking away from death." Liu Jiayi pressed, "It's impossible to commit a shaft here, right?"

Liu Jiayi's movements were unnoticeable as she turned her face away, rested one hand casually on her knee, and suddenly started playing with the poison test tube as if to distract herself, opening her mouth slightly.

Her long, curly eyelashes were half-lidded, covering the somewhat anachronistic clarity of her eyes, her hair swaying gently in the wind around her ears, and her voice said very softly, "...... it's not our soul notes that the monkeys went to steal."

Liu Jiayi paused, as if she sensed something, and jerked her head up to look at her: "Is it my brother's?!"

Liu Jiayi] twirled the test tube in his hand, his head bowed, his expression unreadable, his voice so flat that no emotion could be heard.

"...... At first the monkey and I abused him in a fit of rage, induced by Bai six, and I gouged out his eyes and the monkey cut off his hands."

"There was no regret, only a feeling of revenge, and then there was a void."

Liu Jiayi] slowly clenched the test tube in her hand, her voice so soft that it seemed to fall apart when the wind blew.

"...... an emptiness and bewilderment so long, it seems to last until we die, and not wanting to resurrect him, but always feeling as if ......"

Liu Jiayi] curled up on her knees and hugged herself, murmuring, "It seems that from now on, I live in the world without anyone to love me anymore."

"We were just in this void for years and then Bai six found this copy of the five buildings and he had it logged in and the copy covered the monkey and his original college campus where he was domiciled ......"

[Liu Jiayi] slowly raised her head, nothing on her face: "So the monkey and I met a ghost, Liu Huai, with her eyes gouged out and her hands cut off."

Liu Jiayi pursed her lips as she asked, "And then what did he ...... say to you guys?"

"The monkey and I thought he'd cuss, or at least be so scared that he'd run away, after all, the monkey and I had killed him so badly that he died a horrible death." [Liu Jiayi] paused here for a long moment, humming softly as if remembering something funny, and said in a fascinated way.

"He couldn't see or have hands, and he was bullied by others for being a ghost. Monkey and I drove away the ghosts who were bullying him, and he kept bowing to us and saying thank you."

"He didn't recognise us."

"Then the monkey came out first and he said Hey Liu Huai, you've lived such a la even after you died, I've brought your sister to see you, and then he burst into tears, crying extraordinarily miserable tears, the whole ghost couldn't stand up, saying how did you die?"

"And then I said, "You're the one who died, we're alive and well."

[Liu Jiayi] slowly buried his head in his lap, his voice muffled, "Then he laughed while crying and said that was good."

"It's good that you are alive, it doesn't matter if I die, it's good that you are alive and well."

"The monkey and I didn't say anything all the way back, and then he suddenly asked me, saying let's bring him back to life, and I said that his soul was in Bai six's hands, and there was no way we could bring him back, and there was no way Bai six would give us Liu Huai's soul."

"The monkey said, I can't see this man being a fucking ghost and being ridden like a bum, I'll steal it, big deal, get killed."

Liu Jiayi] was quiet for a long time as she looked at Liu Jiayi who looked shocked: "Bai six also approached me after the monkey was beaten, but he didn't hit me, Bai six knew that this kind of punishment didn't mean anything to me."

She closed her eyes, "He brought Liu Huai's ghost back and threw it to Daniel's men so Daniel could torture him, and I watched through the glass as he was tortured in the torture chamber, screaming in agony the whole time."

[Liu Jiayi's] voice was a little unsteady: "He didn't even scream like that the day I killed him."

Bai six stood right next to me and looked together and calmly said, "Jiayi, I know it was your idea, it won't happen again."

When she finished, the two of them fell silent together in relative silence.

[Liu Jiayi] let out a breath and suddenly burst out laughing, "A word of advice to my little sister, don't work for Bai six, it won't end well."

"But between that and the fact that I've sold my soul to him every world line too soon." [Liu Jiayi] shrugged with a regretful sigh, "So it's a horse's ass to talk to you now, it doesn't seem to help."

"That's enough talk, I've had enough fish for today, I'll leave first."

She said, stood up and patted her buttocks to leave, just a little bit, she was pulled by Liu Jiayi across the street by the corner of her coat, [Liu Jiayi] turned around slightly suspiciously, "What are you doing ......"

Liu Jiayi rushed up to her and hugged her tightly.

[Liu Jiayi]'s pupils contracted slightly for a moment, then quickly widened as she playfully tried to rip Liu Jiayi off her chest: "Hey, hey, little sister, don't just pander to strange big sisters oh, I'm a very cold killer, the kind that killed her own father with her own hands and gouged out her brother's eyes ......"

"I have a lot of people who love me now." Liu Jiayi interrupted [Liu Jiayi] and said quickly, "When I was in the orphanage there were a lot of people calling me little blind, no one wanted to adopt me, and my brother was always worried when he saw me, as if he was going to leave me at any moment."

"It's like I live in an atmosphere of, at any moment, being left behind."

"But!" Liu Jiayi exclaimed. Liu Jiayi said loudly, "After I met Bai Liu, two families fought for me to be their daughter, there was no Daniel in the team as you said, but there was an extra big goofball who would buy me a dress, a silly monkey, and a very rich young master, I had a brother from the regiment, and they all cried when I left the team. "

"They were all very nice to me and they all liked me a lot."

Liu Jiayi hugged [Liu Jiayi] around the neck, "So big sister, you're not unloved."

"You just haven't met them yet, live well, you always will."

"Sounds ......" [Liu Jiayi] hugged her back slowly, lowering her head and giving a soft laugh, "What a happy life."

"You're the happiest of all the [my] stories I've heard."

She closed her eyes, "Then I'll begrudgingly trust you for a moment."

Zone C.

In the midst of the rubble, Bai six, with his white shirt free of dust and blood, smiles, and Bai Liu, with his bruises, stands at a distance, the collars and corners of their shirts swaying back and forth in the turbulent wind.

The buildings around them are slowly collapsing downwards, steel and concrete walls and canvases falling to the ground, sending up a myriad of flying dust, creating a visual effect of the ground lifting up, the sky sinking, the end coming, the world falling apart.

The building where they are staying gives way to daylight, and the golden sunlight cuts through the fine dust and smoke, sending an incredibly bright beam of light around Bai Liu and Bai six, and their eyebrows are reflected in this brilliant light in an unreal way.

The mists behind them were broken.

Mu Sicheng] and [Liu Jiayi] appear behind Bai six, one with his pocket to the left and the other rubbing the back of his neck to the right, neither reporting on the mission.

Bai six didn't seem surprised to see them back and just smiled and said, "Looks like you all didn't finish."

"Ko should go back under the effect of the death-free card, hard work for him."

[Mu Sicheng] swept Bai six a glance, hmmm and not really cared to avert his eyes, yawned: "Recently slept too tired, no strength to fight, so did not finish, boss you want to punish it."

[Liu Jiayi]'s excuse was less perfunctory, she bowed her head and took on an attitude of admitting her fault: "With Shi Qian and Yuan Guang, it was not good to use ranged skills, so the opponent ran away, sorry, I only brought back the land certificate."

"Hmm." Bai six didn't much care either as he smiled and asked, "It feels good to interact with your well to do self, doesn't it?"

The faces of [Mu Sicheng] and [Liu Jiayi] both changed slightly.

"What are you talking about, boss?" [Mu Sicheng] looked sleepily at Bai six, "What's going on?"

[Liu Jiayi] scorned [Mu Sicheng]'s poor acting skills in his heart while bowing his head docilely, "There was no exchange on my side, the other side resisted fiercely."

"Is that so?" Bai six slowly withdrew his gaze, "I thought you guys would be in a good mood in this world line."

He looked across at Bai Liu and the smile in his eyes grew, "At least I'm in a good mood."

"It's been a long time since I've met someone so interesting and so worthwhile."

[Mu Sicheng]'s face sank completely.

Those whom Bai six has judged in this way have either had their souls purchased by him or have been tortured to death by him.

-or both are basically equivalent to one downfall in the eyes of [Mu Sicheng].

Behind Bai Liu, four other players slowly emerged, but these four were not quite the same as the Bai six who were not even dirty on the opposite side.

Tang Erda was a little better, Liu Jiayi's clothes were blackened by the poisonous mist and his face was filthy, and Muke and Mu Sicheng were even worse, almost covered in blood.

"It's all here." Bai six lifted his eyes and he hooked the corners of his mouth, "The most interesting part of this game is about to begin."

[System Alert: Player Bai six is using player Daniel's panel to use his opponent's personal weapon.

Bai six The whip in his hand disappears and becomes a grass-green sniper rifle.

The moment the gun appeared, Tang Erda, [Mu Sicheng], and [Liu Jiayi]'s faces all changed.

--This is Daniel's weapon, the Soul Crusher!

"This is a gun that shatters the soul of the player who is hit, and there is no possibility of reanimation in any world line." The smile on Bai six's face grew misty as he held up his hand in a 'bang' gesture, "Once you get hit like that [bang], you never exist again."

"The cooldown on this gun is fifteen minutes."

Bai six looked across at Bai Liu and the circus members behind him and smiled, "Bai Liu, how about we play a game."

"I have a land certificate here, so you can't end this game of five buildings by collecting all the land certificates, the only way you can end this game is if you reunite, or your opponent reunites."

"Then I'll give you two options."

Bai six gave a look to [Liu Jiayi], telling her to throw Shi Qian and Yuan Guang, who were in an unconscious state, into the middle of the two positions, then raised her gun to the two men and looked across at Bai Liu with a smile.

"Every fifteen minutes until the end of the game, my gun will shatter the soul of one person, but accordingly, you can make a choice."

"If you choose to shatter Yuan Guang and Shi Qian's souls, then I will give you the gun and let you shoot them yourself, then the game is over, you win the game and I get what I want."

Bai six's gaze went back and forth between Bai Liu and a tight-faced Tang Erda, "Or, you can choose not to kill them, then I'll pick one of your team members to shoot at random every fifteen minutes."

The moment those words fell, Tang Erda raised the gun to her head and looked at Bai Six and the gun in his hand with a red, fierce gaze.

[System Alert: Player (Rose Hunter) uses skill (Suicide Bullet)]

The silver bullet passed through Tang Erda's head and flew through the air in a shiny arc before striking Bai six's skull.

Bai six's head is skewed in the air by a blow to the head.

His white shirt was stained with blood for the first time, then the man squared his head back as if nothing had happened, tapped his finger on the muzzle of the gun on his temple and let [Liu Jiayi] cast a healing skill on him before continuing with his smile unchanged, "Alright, your turn is over, the Suicide Bullet skill is on cooldown, it's my turn next. "

Bai six raised his gun and pointed it down at Bai Liu, whose face was devoid of emotion: "Choose."

"The countdown begins ......5, 4, 3, 1, time's up."

Bai six raised his gun to Mu Sicheng and without hesitation, he was about to pull the trigger.

[Mu Sicheng] suddenly stepped forward, he gripped the muzzle of his gun and looked up at Bai six very deeply, very deeply: "Boss, forget it."

Bai six swept him diagonally and suddenly laughed softly, "That's interesting, the first time I've seen you plead for your other self."

"What's the reason?"

[Mu Sicheng] took two deep breaths, "It's not like they have a stake in us, there's no need to go this far."

"Is that the reason?" Bai six's face turned playful as his eyes half closed, "I thought it was a reason like, [at least let me see that there is a world line where I get the friends I want]?"

[Mu Sicheng] was still for two seconds, and he slowly raised his bloodshot eyes to look at Bai six: "Even if I think so, what's wrong with that?"

"At least have a world line to spare them, Bai six, you already have so much, allow others to have a little too."

Before [Mu Sicheng]'s words were out of his mouth, both of his hands instantly turned into monkey claws, attacking Bai six's throat with a fierce killing intent.

Bai six squeezed his shoulders to avoid it, and he lowered his eyes to meet Mu Sicheng's as if in pity and pity: "Once one has superfluous feelings, one inevitably becomes an inferior animal with spilled values."

"There's not a lot of existential value left."

Bai six held [Mu Sicheng]'s shoulder with one hand and aimed the soul-crushing gun at [Mu Sicheng]'s abdomen with the other, and then--

"Bang..."

"Monkey!" [Liu Jiayi's] pupils shrank.

Blood splattered on the corner of Bai six's eyes.

[Mu Sicheng]'s pupils dilated instantly, and the part of him that had been hit by the gun turned greyish white for an instant, spreading rapidly around his body as if burning, and he fell half to his knees, haltingly and convulsively, and let out two dry, hoarse screams.

Bai six pulls from his glove a soul note shattered with [Mu Sicheng], featuring Mu Sicheng with his eyes red at the corners.

The banknote slowly crumbles into dust along with [Mu Sicheng].

Bai six let go of the soul note, which had dissipated into powder, and said flatly, "Good work, Mu Sicheng."

Liu Jiayi] looked at the pile of ashes, her hands and the skin of her mouth trembling, her eyes red to the point of imminent tears, and on impulse she took two steps forward with her mind blank.

The sniper rifle in Bai six's hand instantly turned into a dagger and silently pressed against her neck.

He raised his eyes and gazed at [Liu Jiayi] without a ripple: " Jiayi, I said it would never happen again."

The cold touch of the dagger made [Liu Jiayi] clear for a moment.

--This is Liu Huai's dagger.

Bai six was reminding her that Liu Huai was still in his hands.

[Liu Jiayi] clenched his fists and tried his best to control the composure of his expression, then gritted his teeth to steady his trembling voice and lowered his head to say respectfully, "...... Yes."

"There." Bai six turned his head to look across at the team who were almost too quiet to make a sound, the exact same smile on his face as before, as if the pile of ashes in front of him wasn't the team member he had just killed, "My team member just bought you another fifteen minutes of thinking time."

" Bai Liu, you have fifteen minutes to choose who to kill."
