Chapter 400: How to own five buildings

Area B.

Liu Jiayi climbed out of the cemetery building, her face tense, her hands lying on the ground, she rolled over and jumped up to the ground, rolled over and threw a bottle of poison to hit a tentacle that was coming out of the cemetery to wrap around her ankle.

The tentacle was smashed and fell into the cemetery building.

Liu Jiayi clutched a white land certificate in her right hand, with some blood stains on her face from the battle, she pursed her lips and stared at the exit of the cemetery, and after a while she made sure that there wouldn't be anything crawling out of the cemetery's exit before relaxing and sitting down on the ground, leaning back and propping up her body with her hands on the ground to rest and catch her breath.

Behind them, the cemetery building emanated a black, poisonous fog, and the mournful hissing of the monster's corroded body could be heard from within.

Liu Jiayi was the first member of the team to receive the land certificate.

Because she directly used the poisonous mist fountain move to consume the developer monster below, originally Liu Jiayi did not want to use up the move so early to wait for the CD, after all, that monster she slowly grinding can also grind to death, but for so long Bai Liu did not communicate with them, this guy side must be out of something!

Liu Jiayi took a couple of brief breaths and then immediately lowered his head to equip himself with skate mobility props, ready to turn on full speed and head for the C-zone.

There is a little girl with her hands swinging and skating at full speed in a cemetery in the dark, obviously a very weird scene, but what is even weirder is that, from an unknown time, the black mist began to fill up behind her silently, as if the god of death was chasing after her with a cloak, and it stuck to her back without a sound.

Liu Jiayi stops suddenly, his hand suddenly reaches behind him and pulls out two bottles of poison, backs up and slides left and right twice, alertly dodging the black smoke, and inclines his head to look somewhere in the cemetery to ask in a stern voice, "Who is it?"

"Finally, I've waited for you to finish your big move." An ethereal voice came out from within the black mist, and the outline of a female figure within the mist was faintly visible.

Her voice was a bit slurred, as if she was chewing on something, and her tone held a teasing, lazy smirk, "While it's easy to kill you without having to wait, I prefer to inflict the maximum enemy death value with a much smaller damage expected value."

"It's basic witch self-consciousness, isn't it?"

Liu Jiayi did not hesitate to smash a bottle of poison over, two pieces of black mist with almost identical texture exploded in the center, the mist collided with each other, a clear boundary appeared in the center of the two identical mists, from the boundary to both sides inspired violent winds blowing to the opposite side, the vegetation and grasses that had been blown over by the mist showed different degrees of corrosion and wilting symptoms.

The black poisonous fog on the opposite side was dispersed by the wind, and the silhouette inside finally appeared completely in front of Liu Jiayi's eyes, she breathed a sigh of relief, and almost at the moment she saw the silhouette clearly, she did not hesitate to turn around and stomped on the roller skates underneath her feet, wanting to escape from this place.

"A witch's code of conduct, when unable to fight a powerful opponent head on, the first thing to do is to ensure survival rate." A rather appreciative light laugh came from behind Liu Jiayi, "Quite a smart choice."

"But what if this opponent is smart too, and she guessed you would do this and doesn't want you to escape?" This lazy female voice had just fallen when a crisp ringing finger sounded, "Like this."

With the sound of ringing fingers, the cemetery buildings around Liu Jiayi began to burst into poisonous fog one by one, and the fog filled inward, continuously blocking her escape route, finally leaving only a blank, safe circle in the center that was not enveloped by the poisonous fog.

Liu Jiayi tried to force her way out twice, but each time she was forced to grit her teeth and retreat, and eventually she turned her back to the poisonous fog and looked at the woman slowly walking towards her from the fog.

The woman's features were indescribably similar to hers now, but compared to the current Liu Jiayi she had grown out quite a bit, cutting her short neck-length hair in two sections, with layers cut at the ear and at the back of the neck, and the broken hair was casually pinned behind the ear.

She was wearing a sporty red and blue clashing short top and shorts, but over that she had a wide sweatshirt with bright bands of color, waist-length, and graffiti-style boardshorts with white socks that came out a hair higher than the shoes.

Outside of the clothes, the woman's exposed slender waist and thighs were taut and sturdy, and the muscle lines on her abdomen and thighs could be clearly seen, and it seemed to be a figure that would only come out from a high-intensity workout.

She wore a black leg ring on her right thigh, a bullet belt-like harness hanging diagonally from her waist, a poison test tube filled with black liquid stuck in both the leg ring and the harness, and a tattoo in the shape of a reverse cross, the size of a palm, on the skin underneath the leg ring.

The woman who was walking out was chewing on a piece of pink bubble gum in a loose manner, blowing a huge bubble every now and then, then popping it and breaking it, the gum at the edge of her mouth being bitten in and chewed on again, her crotch swinging right up against the body of a woman whose head hung forward and passed out as she dragged her right hand around her waist.

Liu Jiayi noticed that the unconscious woman was Shi Qian.

She looked over at Liu Jiayi with a grin and raised her hand in greeting, "Hello there, little blind man who can't escape."

"I trust you've guessed who I am?"

Liu Jiayi hid the bottle of poison behind her back and calmly replied, "Doesn't it seem a bit degrading to make an enemy of your own self, who is only eight years old?"

"Won't oh." Liu Jiayi on the opposite side casually tossed the unconscious Shi Qian to the side, and then squatted down to look at Liu Jiayi flatly, reaching out her left hand to pinch and tug on her face with a smile, the smile on her face was actually a little bit sweet and gentle, "Isn't it only natural for a big sister to bully her little sister?"

Liu Jiayi slightly tilted her body back to avoid the contact between the other party and her body, and out of the corner of her eye, she looked at the five poison test tubes that the other party was holding in her right hand hidden behind her back, and coldly asked back, "Big sister, isn't your definition of bullying a little over the line? If you bully me with five poison test tubes, I'll be directly played to death by you."

"Eh-ah-ah-ah, yeah?" The mature Liu Jiayi tilted her head with smiling eyes, "But that's how my brother and I played before we died too eh."

"He had so much fun, he even gouged his own eyes out and cried for me to use them before he died."

She opened her pristine eyes and smiled immensely, "How's that, he gave me these eyes, they're not bad, are they?"

Liu Jiayi's breath hitched as she subconsciously clutched the rag doll at her side, but only for a moment before releasing it.

On the other hand, Liu Jiayi's eyes swept down, she noticed a rag doll hanging on Liu Jiayi's side, and the friendly and lovely smile on her face disappeared in an instant.

"You still have this disgusting filth." The mature Liu Jiayi slowly raised her eyes, the smile on her face beginning to turn dangerous, "You wouldn't still let Liu Huai live, would you? Bai Liu didn't help you execute him?"

"He's dead." Liu Jiayi took a deep breath, "Bai Liu never helped me get my brother killed, he always saved him."

"Bai Liu helped you save people, how could you not save them?" Liu Jiayi on the other side snorted, "Playing with you and inducing you to kill is just a trick."

Liu Jiayi looked up as she seemed to realize something and raised her little face to smile harshly at Liu Jiayi across from her, she gave a slight grimace, "Because my brother is hell bent on dying for me."

"My brother is only different from yours, he died after killing Bad Daddy for me."

Liu Jiayi from the opposite side stared at little Liu Jiayi's tight expression for a few seconds, and after seemingly determining that her opposite self was indeed not lying, the expression on her face completely disappeared, and in the next second, she backhandedly slammed the five poison test tubes onto the ground.

A huge black poisonous mist exploded into a mushroom-like cloud, Liu Jiayi quickly put on his mask with bated breath then took out the antidote spray and attached it to the mask connector, quickly pressed it down twice and took two deep breaths of the antidote spray.

But even so, Liu Jiayi clearly saw his life bar jump a bit, and then slowly climb up.

Just a sniff and that's it. This woman's poison is so potent!

Amidst the poisonous mist, ethereal and ethereal voices came from all directions, as if witches were chanting incantations:

"You, like me, have a stupid dad and brother who are still being lied to before they die that he loves you, and a Bai Liu who constantly uses your residual value and induces your emotions and anger to help him kill people and do his work, and as a being in the position of being in the same destiny as you are in, my few sympathetic feelings are in effect for you to make your death a little bit easier. "

Liu Jiayi's clothes and the doll's around her waist were beginning to be corroded by the poisonous mist around her, she looked around and retorted in a cold voice:

"Thanks for the sympathy, big sister, but you'd better have more pity on yourself."

"My brother made a soul deal with Bai Liu before he died, just guaranteeing that Bai Liu would treat me like family."

"Bai Liu did it too."

"He got me out of the orphanage, found me adoptive parents, and took me to meet his friends."

Liu Jiayi calmly said, "No matter what the circumstances, Bai Liu never asked me to kill anyone."

"Normally speaking, sympathy is a feeling that only comes from happy people watching unfortunate people, and from that point of view, big sister, it seems like I'm the one who should be sympathizing with you, right?"

The poisonous mist flowing around Liu Jiayi froze for a split second, the next second, the poisonous mist dispersed, the mature Liu Jiayi standing at the center of the room looked at the opposite Liu Jiayi without any emotion on her face, she slowly opened her hand and then closed it:

"Poison Fountain."

The black poisonous fog instantly solidified to be as thick as liquid, surging out of the ground and wrapping around Liu Jiayi!

District A.

Mu Sicheng pooh-poohed and crawled out of the dirt, complaining as he did so, "Shit, this cemetery building in Area A is also too full of residents! It's also full of large households."

"Do rich people like to arrange their family from life to death so much? So many monsters, I don't know when I have to go to find Bai Liu said rotten cemetery building ......"

As he spoke, he flipped upwards with one hand propped on the edge and looked to land firmly on the ground.

A lilting, flirtatious whistle came from behind him, "Hey, is that what you're looking for, kid?"

Mu Sicheng single foot on the ground the moment his hands instantly turned into sharp claws, rolled over and retreated a dozen meters in succession to pull away and the voice of the distance, the teeth on the side of the mouth are exposed, his two claws crouched down and looked over viciously: "Who is where? Roll out!"

"Nice alertness there, I thought the little bosses of this world looked so soft they would have wasted you." The voice continued with a smirk.

Mu Sicheng stared dead at the silhouette of the man half-squatting on the tombstone in a loose posture.

The bright moonlight shone from behind him against his back, and all that could be seen was the side of a face that was cracking a smile, and an eye that was red and oozing in the white moonlight.

This side face gives Mu Sicheng a familiar yet unfamiliar feeling.

The man squatting on the tombstone leapt down with an easy jump, walking toward Mu Sicheng with one hand in his pocket and waving a piece of paper with his other hand, "You're looking for the land certificate, right? Here I have it."

The man took a step into Mu Sicheng's field of vision, then Mu Sicheng let out a startled grass and straightened up instantly, "Who the fuck are you?!"

The man was loosely dressed in a fluffy, knee-length, dark yellow woolen coat of exaggerated brown hair, which was unbuttoned and was blown by the wind so that the corners flew in both directions, but inside it was oddly paired with a simple, sporty top, which felt like it was a mix of two pieces randomly grabbed from the closet when he left the house and didn't wake up.

His canvas-textured pants were cinched into high-topped boots that came up to his calves, and on his hands were seven or eight strangely shaped silver rings, the centers of which were engraved with an inverted cross turned to different angles.

"Who am I?" The person on the other side seemed as if he had heard a very funny joke, and didn't hold back his laughter, "You're so stupid, you've seen my face and are still asking, who else could I be?"

The man on the other side slowly approached Mu Sicheng.

The night wind blew the fluffy hairs on the man's overcoat, and he walked with a lazy posture, yet the arc of his muscular exertion could be clearly seen with each step, as if he was a lion that appeared to be walking idly, but was actually poised and ready to strike at his prey at any moment.

In the moonlight, the man's red eyes were amazingly bright, "Of course I'm you, Mu Sicheng."

That great sense of oppression on the person opposite him made Mu Sicheng take two cautious steps back, his eyes darting from side to side.

If he can't fight, Bai Liu tells him to keep fighting as the first priority, which means to run!

With his speed, he should still be able to run away if he wants to.

Watching his eyes move, the man across from him lazily raised his hands, "Running away would be pointless, I'm not hitting you."

Mu Sicheng's pace as he prepared to withdraw lurched, and he looked over hesitantly.

The man across the street slowly raised the land certificate, then let go, Mu Sicheng's eyes glued to the land certificate, as it floated to the ground, then the man stomped on it with his boot.

Mu Sicheng felt his eyes being stepped on by his opponent.

"It's been a long time since I've been out on such a fun copy with the boss." The person on the other side playfully suggested, he snorted, "Every day is just meetings and meetings in the guild, my bones are lazy from sleeping, how about we play a game?"

Mu Sicheng asked alertly, "What game?"

The smirk on the man's face across from him deepened, "A game you and I would both enjoy."

"Stealing the game."

Mu Sicheng's breathing changed for a split second, then his pupils darkened as he turned his body completely around to face the other man squarely, "How does it play?"

"To be able to play with you for longer." The Mu Sicheng on the opposite side rubbed the back of his neck, then raised his hand and loosened his arm, looking across the room after letting out a comfortable cloudy breath, "I'm going to stand here without using any skills or equipping my Monster Book form or moving my feet, and only use my right and left hands to resist you."

"And you-" Mu Sicheng from across the room pointed to his feet and raised an eyebrow with a smile, "you can use any means you want, I'll let you go if you can steal from me the certificate of the land that's stepping on my feet, and I'll let you go. How's that?"

Mu Sicheng paused for a second, then he rolled up his sleeves and sneered, fighting spirit in his eyes, "Come and play then."

District C.

The two whips, one black and one white, collided in the air for a moment before bouncing off to the sides under the tremendous impulse, hitting the side of the building and smashing out two vicious depressions, and the building that was hit by the black whip then cracked directly from the break, slowly falling down like tofu that had been sliced in the middle by a knife.

Dust and dirt were flying everywhere, and there was a constant stream of buildings on all sides tipping down towards the open space in the center.

There were two men in the clearing who were approaching each other at a rapid pace, they shook their whips in the thick smoke and ash, cutting a clearly visible space around them, and then the next moment the two men met on the ground, their whips striking and colliding with each other, and a black crack appeared in the space under the tremendous force of the blow, and closed again quickly.

Bai Liu and Bai Liu, both wearing leather gloves, hold the handle of the whip in one hand and pull on the other end of the whip to block the other's whip.

The black and white whips almost rubbed fire in the process of blocking each other, in the subtle flames, Bai Liu lifted his eyelids, he looked at the cold-faced Bai Liu and suddenly laughed softly, "How about we make a bet?"

"How about a bet on which of my team members will kill yours first?"

As soon as the words left his mouth, Bai Liu slid upward and drew back his whip, then moved quickly to lower his body and pound Bai Liu from the bottom to the top.

The whip on Bai Liu's hand disappeared, while his gloved hands turned into a pair of sharp monkey claws, the five fingers closing together to form a sharp claw blade that diagonally grazed past Bai Liu's shoulder.

Bai Liu quickly grabbed back after his monkey's paw grazed it, his eyes dropping as he laughed softly, "I guess the first one is Mu Sicheng."

Bai Liu's speed of dodging was not as fast as Bai Liu's speed of attacking, he was unable to dodge and was stabbed in the shoulder, and then the next second Bai Liu swung his whip directly outward to open the monkey's claw that was stabbed into his nailed shoulder.

The monkey's claws flipped outward from Bai Liu's shoulder along with the bloody flesh, and the blood instantly stained the shirt at Bai Liu's shoulder.

Bai Liu, after being opened up a distance by Bai Liu's whip swing, unhurriedly retracted his own monkey paw which was still dripping blood from the countryside downwards, and continued to walk over in the dust in Bai Liu's direction, with his mouth still politely inquiring, "Who do you think will be the first to die?"

Bai Liu didn't answer, and in the dusty haze, all that could be heard was the sound of his blood dripping down the ground from his fingertips.

[SYSTEM WARNING: Player Mu Sicheng's life value continues to drop, down to 27!!!]

Mu Sicheng was thrown and knocked away four or five tombstones, he covered his chest and vomited a mouthful of blood on the ground, staggeringly holding onto the tombstones and trying to stand up, but his knees were so weak that he couldn't get up even after standing twice, and he could only half-kneel helplessly on the ground, staring dead at himself with blood-stained eyes at the faraway one who was stepping on the land certificates in a careless gesture.

...... so scary.

So his hands, they could have this level of power?

Across the street, Mu Sicheng, his left foot on the land certificate, his footprints on the ground not even moving a bit, clapped his mouth in a long drawn-out yawn, tears seeping from the corners of his eyes, "71 attempts and still coming?"

Mu Sicheng swallowed the mouthful of blood that welled up in his throat as he staggered to his feet, head bowed and fists clenched.

What about .......

If Bai Liu were here, in this situation where he had already lost forty points of blood, would he choose to continue or retreat?

Was that choice he just made the right one or the wrong one? Should he continue?

"Hey, do you still have a choice or not?" Across the room, Mu Sicheng waved his hand loudly, "I'm going to fall asleep if you don't come."

Mu Sicheng clenched his teeth, he took a deep breath and just wanted to turn around.

"Are you going to run away?" That Mu Sicheng lazily put his hands behind his head, "It's not that stupid? Knowing how to protect yourself, if it were me I wouldn't have been so honest in completing Bai Liu's mission."

"That guy is an inhuman fellow, just like Liu Huai, not worth the effort you've put in to get to this point for him."

"Don't worry about these rotten people."

Mu Sicheng's half-turned body paused as he snapped his head up, his eyes crimson as he raised his fist and charged, "Don't you dare talk about my friend like that!!!"

"They're not the ones who suck!!!"

Assassins and thieves, what a lame name!

Eh? Does it suck? I think it's okay!

Liu Huai scratched his head and smiled shyly at Mu Sicheng, "I think it would be cool to bring along Fourth Brother's Thief with that title."

[Rangers and Monkeys, what kind of crappy name is that? Bai Liu, you go to hell!]

[Can we really win in the end?]

Bai Liu turned his head to look at him, his demeanor calm, "It's not for you to think about."

"Go do what you need to do and I'll figure out the rest."

"We're going to win."

Then I don't care! Let's gamble on this one! Just die!

Bai Liu will always find a way to save the Bureau!

Tears came out of Mu Sicheng's eyes as he viciously raised his fist to the other Mu Sicheng's face, hissing at the top of his lungs, "--seventy-second time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Advertisement

The mature Mu Sicheng easily dodged it with just a shake of his shoulders, Mu Sicheng's descending fist shifting into a monkey's paw the moment it landed on the man's clothes, his eyes glaring at the certificate of the ground at his feet.

That one was just a front for him. His real goal was still to steal the land certificates.

The mature Mu Sicheng slightly raised his eyebrows, squatted his body and moved his knees to the side to block Mu Sicheng's monkey paw, and with two hands, he grabbed Mu Sicheng's monkey paw and folded his arm inward into three pieces as if he were breaking chopsticks.

[System alert: Player Mu Sicheng's life value is down to 20!

Mu Sicheng was in so much pain that his pupils were lax, he gritted his teeth to hold back the blood that was about to rush out of his throat, and rolled over to try again, when Mu Sicheng on the opposite side easily grasped his monkey paw, and then gripped the shoulder, and diagonally rotated his waist from side to side with force to throw Mu Sicheng right out like before.

Being thrown out one more time might kill you!

At the moment of being thrown out, Mu Sicheng rolled over and used the monkey paw, which had been broken into three pieces internally, and clutched the clothes of the mature Mu Sicheng with a death grip in incredible pain, and was not thrown out.

The other Mu Sicheng raised his eyebrows, then grabbed both sides of Mu Sicheng's shoulders and abducted them, as if he was going to fold Mu Sicheng right down the middle and into two halves, the violent bone deformation caused Mu Sicheng's monkey paw to finally let go of his hand powerlessly.

"You haven't even remembered after having your arms broken so many times." The expression on the mature version of Mu Sicheng's face was cold and unrelenting, "This time I'll give you a thorough and painful lesson."

Mu Sicheng hissed out through gritted teeth, he retracted his shoulder inwards against his opponent's force, the shoulder joint was directly dislodged under the strength of the two sides squeezing it, in the moment it was dislodged, Mu Sicheng's pupils tightened and spread, and he collapsed straight to the ground.

"You don't remember even after having your monkey paw removed so many times by your so-called friends, now you finally don't have a monkey paw anymore." Big Mu Sicheng crouched on the ground and boredly poked this face down Mu Sicheng a few times, "The game is over."

Mu Sicheng's shoulders floated and scraped from side to side on the ground, struggling to move forward a few steps closer to the mature version of Mu Sicheng, as if he wanted to do it again.

A bit of boredom finally appeared on the mature Mu Sicheng's face, "I'm sick of your so-called friends, come over again and I'll really kill you."

Mu Sicheng's face lifted up scarred and bruised, a smug grin on his ground-scrubbed and bruised face, the land certificate dangling from the side of his mouth, and he slurred, "I've stolen the land certificate at your feet, and I've won!"

The mature version of Mu Sicheng's pupils shrink.

This guy just did it on purpose.

Mu Sicheng knows that having both arms broken is sort of a shared psychological weakness between them, so when Mu Sicheng is tortured by having both arms broken, not only does he himself suffer, but the one inflicting the torture himself also suffers a certain amount of psychological negligence.

And it was this opening that the guy fell to the ground and played dead, actually using his mouth to nibble the dirt under his feet without any dignity at all, and took the land certificate out of his mouth.

Mu Sicheng knew that he was a very honorable man, and there was no way in any world line that he would lie down at another man's feet for Bai Liu to gripe a land certificate that he was stepping on.

Why is it that Mu Sicheng of this world line can do what Bai Liu did?

Mature Mu Sicheng contemplates out of breath for a while.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Mu Sicheng, who was lying on the ground, was a bit apprehensive and angry, and while he was afraid that the land certificate would be grabbed with a death grip, he questioned him vaguely, "Hey! You won't say va no sour va!"

The Mu Sicheng on the opposite side returned to his senses, he lowered his head and locked eyes with the sprawled Mu Sicheng for a few seconds, then suddenly laughed low and disdainfully, "I may be a fool, but you did win."

Mu Sicheng's eyes lit up and then he watched as this mature version of Mu Sicheng patted him on the head and stood up, turning to leave, waving to him with one hand in his pocket:

"I failed my mission and went to my boss to collect my punishment, more than likely he'll whip me, I'll probably die."

"Your boss is good."

This Mu Sicheng paused for a moment, "Even though what you're doing is quite a pull, he's taught you to be quite handsome."

Mu Sicheng, who was lying on the ground, was full of questions, "????"

Is that a fucking compliment or a curse?
