Chapter 56: Explosive Last Train

The thief's brother swept everyone around with his eyeless black eyes, suddenly raised his head as if sensing the location of the broken lens, and chased after Du Sanying, who had already run away.

The whole car bounced and rattled as if it was about to fall apart from the running pace of the thief's brother.

Liu Huai breathed a sigh of relief, he thought he was going to have to fight again like before, he laughed bitterly at the thought, he didn't want to slash Mu Sicheng's hand for a third time and force him to go berserk, Mu Sicheng the slashed man didn't have a psychological shadow, he the slasher was about to have one.

Zhang Gui looked at Bai Liu with a sense of purpose: "Did you have Du Sanying hang the broken lenses outside to lure the thief's brother? You knew there would be a thief's brother at this stop, so you had Du Sanying lure him away?"

"Right. " Bai Liu nodded, "I found out at my last station that these monsters are not new at each station, but have followed from the previous one."

Zhang Gui asked, "How did you find out?"

Bai Liu lifted his eyes, "Because the number of these bursting passengers is increasing every station, and there are ones we've attacked."

Zhang Gui reacted to the fact that the influx of passengers was indeed greater than at the previous station, but the increased number of monsters made it even more difficult for players to steal the broken lenses and escape, so it was no wonder Bai Liu had to ask Du Sanying to lure the thief's brother away, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to cope with the influx of the thief's brother and the increased number of passengers.

Zhang Gui's face grew darker and darker - no wonder all the previous players were wiped out, this game is really disgusting, there are still seven stations left after the thief's brother appears, there are seven players in this game The game has seven players and seven stations, exactly one player dies at each station and the last station is finished ......

But under Bai Liu's hand, it was surprising to see that by the fourth station, not a single player had died, Mu Sicheng on the last station had his foot in the door and was pulled back, Du Sanying on this station ......

Tsk.

Zhang Gui looks at Bai Liu, a guy who really knows how to use his head and use people.

Du Sanying, a guy who can't do anything right but has a low chance of dying and getting his stuff taken from him, is the best option for hanging on to his thief brother, but-

"Aren't you worried about Du Sanying not wanting to lure his thief brother and put the broken lenses in his system backpack?" Zhang Gui narrowed his eyes and asked, "It's dangerous, how can you be sure Du Sanying won't run away? If he does, and the thief brother turns back to attack us, we're all in danger."

Bai Liu replied, "He and I are in a cooperative relationship."

Zhang Gui understood, he was a bit shocked: " Du Sanying has a 100% luck value, how can he fall into your hands and be controlled by you?

He had tried to control Du Sanying so many times, but the puppet wire couldn't even get close to Du Sanying! It would somehow be interrupted!

Du Sanying also has a very famous item called [Put Control Coat], no control skill can penetrate this coat, which is one of the reasons why Zhang Gui just gave up controlling Du Sanying.

Bai Liu shrugged as he smiled, "Maybe for a player like Du Sanying it's a sign of good fortune to be under my control?"

Zhang Gui silently looks at Du Sanying who is being whisked away by his thief brother crying and jumping around: "......"

Fine, you can call it Du Sanying's little luck.

The overall process of harvesting the lenses went very smoothly, with the exception of Du Sanying who had an expletive to say, the rest of the group went through with an incredible ease, easily finding all 40 pieces, but Liu Huai and Mu Sicheng, who were responsible for finding the pieces, each lost 20 life points because they couldn't avoid the flaming damage on the passengers.

"Using bandages and other defensive props couldn't reduce the flame damage." Mu Sicheng's clothes were burnt, revealing slightly stained pecs and abs, and his face was black from the sweat wiped from his own hands, making him look like a coal miner.

Mu Sicheng gasped and sat on the ground, lifting his bandaged hand to wipe his cheek before resting the wrists of both hands on his knees, his eyes looking up at Bai Liu from the bottom: "I've only got 40 life left, I can make two stops at most."

Liu Huai also wiped the sweat from the fire on his chin with the back of his hand and fell to the ground panting a little tiredly, "I only have 70 life points left, I can still last three stations."

Bai Liu ponders for a moment, "Everyone explode their life value, I am 6."

Li Gou: "65."

Fang Ke: "80."

Zhang Gui: "85."

Du Sanying, who had been chased to the ground, was eerily silent for a long time, and he swallowed: "......100."

Even Bai Liu fell into a speechless silence at this point.

Mu Sicheng and Du Sanying, who looked at each other for a moment, asked, "You were chased so badly, and you didn't lose a single life point? The thief's brother has a movement speed of 1400, and you haven't been caught?"

Du Sanying slightly side-eyed himself as he scratched his face, "Many times he was almost caught ...... but he tripped over the seat of the train many times."

Zhang Gui was completely speechless, although it was not the first time he had seen the power of Du Sanying's luck value, but this was outrageous!

Zhang Gui: "How many times did I have to trip and fall to not catch you once?!"

"Also, just a few hundred times ......" Du Sanying said weakly with faraway eyes.

Bai Liu, Zhang Gui, Mu Sicheng: "......"

Hundreds of times ...... has the thief brother ever stood up in front of you Du Sanying ?

At the time of the train's movement at the next platform stop, Bai Liu once again deployed the battlefield.

He tilted his head to look at the countdown on the train's led light sign and turned to the group of people sitting on the ground behind him and gave a calm and simple order: "Two minutes to the next station, the next station will be Li Gou and Liu Huai as the main attackers to steal the fragments, Zhang Gui and Fang Ke will assist, replace Mu Sicheng, then the next The next station is Li Gou and Fang Ke as the main attackers, the other two support, then the next one is Zhang Gui and Fang Ke, and so on in turn, keep everyone's life value at least above 20, we still have a monster from the Book of Monsters not yet painted, to prepare for the boss battle."

" Du Sanying you are still in charge of attracting the attention of the thief's brother."

Mu Sicheng looked at Bai Liu, a little confused: "So what am I going to do when I'm replaced?"

Bai Liu looked into Mu Sicheng's eyes calmly, "You are responsible for preparing for the boss battle, you are absolutely needed for the boss battle, you are very important, you are the main force of the boss battle, so you cannot die easily, take care to keep your life level from falling below thirty."

Mu Sicheng looked down at his bruised and battered self and raised his eyebrows, "You're going to make me go berserk again to fight a boss, aren't you, Bai Sir? I'm going to be delirious if my spirit level jumps repeatedly in such a short period of time, Bai Liu, please don't treat everyone like you're a monster who can have his spirit level broken, okay?"

He was also right, after the last time his spirit level dropped to single digits and then recovered, Mu Sicheng's eyes had clearly begun to lapse. Even though his spirit level was later drifted back by Bai Liu, the after-effects of the violent drop in spirit level and the rapid recovery in a short period of time were still there, and Mu Sicheng's spirit and concentration were still dropping badly.

Mu Sicheng was almost burned to death a few times when he was the main attacker against the Burst Passenger, but at least it took three supporters and a Bai Liu who was always watching Mu Sicheng to bring him back.

Bai Liu's tone was calm: "From your performance just now, you are indeed in bad shape, so I have decided to replace you and rest from now on to recover your energy, I need you to maintain a high level of concentration during the boss battle, you can feed yourself some sleeping pills to get some sleep, you can probably sleep for another 20 minutes."

Sleeping pills are available in the system shop, and they are always very effective. One pill and you're down.

Mu Sicheng looked at Bai Liu with a smirk and a crooked smile, "If I sleep, who will protect me and make sure I'm safe? Everyone else has been arranged by you to rob the shard."

Bai Liu looked at him unperturbed, "Me."

Mu Sicheng was so shocked that he coughed. He wanted to sneer at Bai Liu, "How can you protect me when you only have 6 life points, but when he met Bai Liu's flat and incomparable eyes, he couldn't say any sarcastic words out of the corner of his mouth, he just scratched his hair in annoyance: "You only have 6 life points, are you kidding Bai Liu? Liu ......"

Bai Liu explained, without skipping a beat, "Of all the people here, I'm the only one who can guarantee your survival 100%, do you have any objections to that?"

Mu Sicheng's eyes swept over Zhang Gui's obscure expression, Du Sanying's sobbing eyes, Liu Huai's evasive eyes, and the rest of Zhang Gui's puppets, before finally settling on Bai Liu's unwavering gaze - this guy! The same [I know it's risky but I won't change it] look he had when he tried to force his way through Zhang Gui's plan.

After a few seconds, Mu Sicheng gave a stifled tsk and finally threw up his hands in compromise and surrendered, "OK, I have no more objections."

"I told you, I won't let you die, Mu Sicheng." Bai Liu walked over and smiled at Mu Sicheng, a smile of a soothing and comforting nature, a smile that looked particularly false on Bai Liu's face, but Mu Sicheng still looked relieved for a moment.

Bai Liu patted Mu Sicheng's shoulder and sat down next to him, "Go to sleep."

Mu Sicheng was tapped by Bai Liu, he couldn't help but close his eyes and relax. He was already highly tense, but Bai Liu's whisper of "sleep" was like a mantra, Mu Sicheng couldn't help but relax his tense muscles and nerves and leaned against the car door, he I'll just close my eyes and rest, I'll never fall asleep, falling asleep in a game is nonsense and definitely not for a person of his vigilance ......

[System Alert: Player Bai Liu used a highly effective inhalant sleeping pill on player Mu Sicheng]

Mu Sicheng frowned at the sound and moved his hand twice as if ready to struggle awake, but soon Bai Liu put his hand against the tip of Mu Sicheng's nose with no emotion on his face and Mu Sicheng breathed twice as the muscles in his body went limp and he fell uncontrollably into a deeper, darker, sweeter sleep.

Bai Liu glanced sideways at Mu Sicheng, whose head was tilted and breathing steadily, and raised his eyebrows at the white powder in his hand, "This inhaled sleeping pill is too good, isn't it?"

Du Sanying looked dumbfounded: "How did you suddenly put Mu Sicheng down!"

"He's too affected by the previous lowering of his spirit level, the best way to restore his state is to sleep deeply." Bai Liu held his breath and patted the sleeping powder on his hand, waiting for it to dissipate before turning to Du Sanying and opening his mouth, "I need Mu Sicheng in good shape against the boss later, let him fall asleep first."

Du Sanying was a bit confused as he approached Bai Liu and thought he was whispering in his ear, "But Bai Liu, before you used Mu Sicheng because there were only three of us, but now that you have so many people, you don't have to point to Mu Sicheng alone! You don't have to rely on Mu Sicheng alone, you can fight monsters and other people too!"

Du Sanying said this while looking at Zhang Gui and the others out of the corner of his eye, his eyes making it extremely villainous and gossipy, meaning why Bai Liu didn't hawk the bad guys.

"These people will experience a certain degree of decrease in combat power as they look for the shattered lenses to drop below 30 life points in the station that awaits them." Although Bai Liu knew full well that at this distance Zhang Gui and the others could clearly hear themselves whispering to Du Sanying, Bai Liu cooperated by lowering his voice and slightly sidling over to nibble on Du Sanying's ear.

Bai Liu lowered his eyes, "And in this copy of the game, Mu Sicheng is the only one most likely to fight the final boss."

"Only Mu Sicheng is the most likely?" Du Sanying repeats Bai Liu's words with some confusion, he turns his head to Mu Sicheng, who has been put into a deep sleep by Bai Liu with sleeping pills, and asks in confusion, "Why is he the most useful?"

Bai Liu lowered his eyes as he looked at Mu Sicheng's unconscious, peacefully sleeping face and smiled, "Because he is the best thief I have ever seen and the only one who could steal from me."

"Much better than the pair of brothers who stole the mirror."

Du Sanying didn't understand and he was used to not understanding Bai Liu's words, Du Sanying just looked at Bai Liu hesitantly: " Bai Liu, but even so, are you really going to protect the sleeping Mu Sicheng? Why don't you let the others protect you, you two are too dangerous! One is asleep and the other only has 6 life points!"

"No." Bai Liu rejected it, "There are only three people on the fragment capture side, one grabbing and two guarding so as to avoid life loss, one grabbing and one defending back, later on their status will still dip and they will lose a lot of life due to mistakes, if the total life is below 400, then we will all be stuck in the game."

Du Sanying wanted to say something else to persuade Bai Liu, but when he saw Bai Liu's emotionless face, he understood that Bai Liu had made up his mind.

Before he leaves, Du Sanying takes a look at Mu Sicheng, who is sleeping heavily, and Bai Liu, who is standing next to him, and sighs with mixed feelings.

It was the first time he had seen a player risk his life to get another player a good night's sleep.

Of course, Bai Liu's intention was to make the best use of Mu Sicheng when he woke up.

I don't know if Mu Sicheng is lucky or unlucky.

--------

Mu Sicheng woke up with a start from a deep sleep.

As the train sped through the dark tunnel, the wind poured in through the opening in the roof that had been opened by the thief's brother, bringing with it a whistling sound that woke him from his dreamless sleep. There were holes everywhere where the wind had come in.

The performance of the others also confirmed Mu Sicheng's suspicions.

Zhang Gui and Liu Huai are cowering in the corner, Li Gou and Fang Ke are bloodied and in a terrible state, and Du Sanying is panting like a dog on a stool, his hair wet with sweat and clinging to his forehead like a parrot in the water, his eyes glazed over and looking exhausted.

Bai Liu is no better, white as death leaning against the door to adjust his breathing, whip in hand, sweat dripping off his soaked shirt, head tilted back as he pours himself a stamina rejuvenator, a pile of bottles at his feet.

Seeing Mu Sicheng awake, Bai Liu slowly rolled his eyes, " Mu Sicheng, you're awake, the sleeping pills are working well, just over twenty minutes ago, how's your recovery?"

Mu Sicheng rubbed his swollen temples and propped himself up against the door, now that he knew Bai Liu couldn't even think of losing his temper over his drugging, Mu Sicheng frowned at Bai Liu: "How many stops are we at? How many broken lenses have you collected? How many life points do you have left?"

"Just passed the eighth station, two more to go before I'm back at Antique City, with 300 pieces of broken lenses collected." Bai Liu skimmed over the last question as if he hadn't heard it and said, "I feel your mental state returning, let me explain to you what you'll be doing at the ninth station, you'll be working with me later ......"

Mu Sicheng raised his eyes, his eyes held a bit of hostility as he stomped on Bai Liu's whip and repeated his question word for word, interrupting Bai Liu, "I'm asking you Bai Liu, how much life do you have left now?"

Bai Liu blood spilled from the corner of his mouth and was licked away as he lifted his eyes, "Knowing this will only shake your sense of trust in me when you work with me later."

"I don't know that I would have faltered more." Mu Sicheng snorted, "Say, whether I trust you or not, haven't you always forced yourself to work well with me? "

Bai Liu is silent for a moment: "3."

Mu Sicheng couldn't resist: "Fuck!"

Mu Sicheng resisted his urge to swear as he stood up in annoyance, Bai Liu watched impassively as Mu Sicheng lifted a chair and forced himself to calm down.

Mu Sicheng turned around and looked at Bai Liu with gritted teeth, "You have three fucking life points, talk to me and shit about cooperation, one burn and you're dead!"

"It was burned three times." Bai Liu corrected, calmly placating his opponent before Mu Sicheng was about to break into a tirade, "But Mu Sicheng, you've been missing too much with everyone else and I had to come up and match you because no one can afford to drop the ball in the next match."

"As long as you don't miss, I won't die." Bai Liu and Mu Sicheng looked at each other, "So you mustn't miss, got it?"

Mu Sicheng took a deep breath and eventually could only grumpily yell at Bai Liu: "No faux pas! Tell me, madman, what do you want me to do for you! What do we have to do with each other! I've been under the fire for you all my fucking life!"

Bai Liu smiled, "It doesn't need to be that serious, I just need you to steal one thing for me."

"What's that?" Mu Sicheng asked suspiciously in return.

Bai Liu had just opened her mouth when the female voice of the train announcement came on, "Two more stops to go, the train is approaching its final destination, next stop Lu family Lane entrance, please line up by the door if you want to get off, first on then off ......"

Gradually the car door was filled with a dense pile of charred corpses, their twisted heads turning and cackling, the thief's brother standing at the forefront, covered in flames, his eyes crackling with burning underneath, his bones red with fire, striking what appeared to be a pair of glowing red eyes burning reluctantly in the thief's eyes, the thief roaring and pounding on the car door, his anger at the lost loot --the shards taken from the heart.

"These monsters are coming up later! Bai Liu, what exactly do you want me to steal!" Mu Sicheng asks Bai Liu as he pulls him back cautiously.

Bai Liu propped his chin up and braced himself, "I'm not sure what I want you to steal either."

Mu Sicheng sprayed: "????? Fuck you're not sure! You have to give me a target sometime!"

Bai Liu gripped the fishbone in his hand as he exhaled a long breath through the doorway of the car that opened with a snap, his gaze stoic but with a little smile at the corners of his mouth, "If I'm right, what I want you to steal back could be all we have, 300 broken lenses, or it could just be 20 broken lenses, depending on whether Du Sanying can hold it steady. "

"? ? 300 broken lenses, but isn't that Du Sanying's body?" Mu Sicheng turned his head to Du Sanying a little puzzled.

This one is still at 100% life, which makes Mu Sicheng slightly speechless: "Steal it back? You mean the thief's brother will steal it from Du Sanying? That can't be right, that big idiot has been chasing Du Sanying for six stops and hasn't even touched Du Sanying's clothes, so how could he steal the pieces from him?"

"Did you know that bosses in design horror games have a guarded secondary jump principle?" Bai Liu suddenly brought up the matter.

Mu Sicheng squints over, "I don't know, what's this?"

Bai Liu smiled: "That is the boss that guards the level, before the player passes the level, will certainly go berserk, can be combat power berserk, hit rate berserk, this boss will certainly get a great performance boost, that is, performance level two jump, bring the player to pass the level greatly hindered, usually speaking, before the level will be a level that will lead to a large number of player deaths. "

"But it's strange that-" Bai Liu slowly raised his eyes, "this thief brother has followed us for six stations is obviously the main boss of this game, but it hasn't shown any signs of going berserk, even though We've slipped him through six stations, and the later we get, the smoother it gets, and we're about to pass the level, but his combat power hasn't improved at all, which doesn't make sense."

Mu Sicheng raised an eyebrow: "And then what?"

"So I think he's a different kind of secondary jump." Bai Liu slowly raised his eyes, "If there's no mass value enhancement, then there's a new monster, do you remember the name on the second page of the monster book? The Thief Brothers, but we only see a brother, what about his brother?"
