Chapter 514

"Interesting." The woman spread her hands again, and her face turned into a cat's face again. Waves of wind gathered again, and the off-road vehicle floated up and landed on the ground again.

The four people who were originally sitting in the car were either still in the car or outside. Zhang Hua's thigh was pierced by the wire, and he was bleeding non-stop. Sun Haoran's chest was hit, and he had difficulty breathing. Qian Shujun was the driver, and two pieces of glass had pierced into his shoulders. He was barely breathing.

Su Bai sat on the ground. His clothes were dirty and bloodstained, and he looked a little pathetic.

Yes, he looked a little pathetic.

Because until the three people walked out, Su Bai's thoughts were exactly the same as Sun Haoran's. However, the change in reality was indeed a heavy blow.

The other party did not need help at all. On the contrary, they seemed to be doing it with ease.

At first, Su Bai thought that the other party was purposely setting up a trap to attract the other listeners and then capture them. However, after thinking about it from another perspective, it was really unnecessary. Not to mention that this was a very remote suburb, and ordinary listeners who were alone would not dare to come up to the convenience store when they saw hundreds of cat-people surrounding it. Not all of the listeners in groups were as simple-minded as Sun Haoran. Moreover, the efficiency of sitting here and fishing was really too low.

Perhaps, the biggest possibility was that these listeners were originally having a small party in the convenience store with drinks and food, and they were the ones who disrupted the party.

"I-I invited you in." The woman bowed slightly in front of Su Bai and moved her face closer to Su Bai. The cat's whiskers were a little long, and it felt a little itchy when it touched Su Bai's face.

"Pu Yaoyao, who allowed you to invite people to join you?" The young man who was originally standing beside Catwoman walked over with a smile. His tone was not that angry, but more like a tease.

"Yes, Yaoyao, I think Wang Yuezhang is right. If you invite this person to join us, we should at least know why he is qualified to join us and share you with us."

"Feng Yalong, why do I feel that your words are so strange? Be careful that our Sister Yaoyao gets angry and doesn't want to play with you anymore, and then you will die alone."

"Hehe." Feng Yalong laughed. "Sister Yaoyao is not that petty."

Su Bai understood what the two young men meant by "share". Of course, they did not mean to share Catwoman's beautiful body, but in this world, Pu Yaoyao, as a Catwoman, had a unique advantage. She could communicate with the surrounding cat-people, and even intimidate and control them.

Pu Yaoyao did not care about her two companions' teasing words. She just smiled. "A cat's intuition is very scary. I can feel that. of you, if you fight him alone, you will not stand a chance."

"I agree. Feng Yalong and I aren't melee type enhancements anyway." Wang Yuezhang was a little fat, and his skin was very white. He could be considered a clean and fair man. Moreover, he gave Su Bai the feeling that he was a bit like Zhang Bayi, or Fatso. His words and actions always gave people a feeling that he was very slippery.

"If you are willing to join us, come in and eat something. This night will be over very soon. However, other than continuously sending listeners to this world, the Horror Broadcast did not even release the main mission, which means that this is just the calm before the storm."

Pu Yaoyao's meaning was very clear. She was actually doing the same thing as Sun Haoran, which was to attract other listeners to her team to increase the strength of her team in order to deal with the possible storm. However, she was different from Sun Haoran. Sun Haoran's personal strength was much weaker than Pu Yaoyao's. As a team leader, Sun Haoran could only gather a group of teammates with similar strength. The strength of a team leader determined the upper limit of the team's strength.

Su Bai did not directly answer whether he agreed or not. He only asked, "Is there any coffee inside?"

This meant that he agreed.

"There is instant Nescafe coffee. Don't expect there to be coffee beans here." Feng Yalong saw that what was done could not be undone, so he generously accepted Su Bai. Then, his gaze fell on Sun Haoran, Zhang Hua, and Qian Shujun. "Take care of these people first."

Qian Shujun, Zhang Hua, and Sun Haoran's faces showed fear. Obviously, they did not expect that what happened to Bi Jin would happen to the three of them so quickly.

This was the division of strength. It was also a kind of separation of classes.

If Sun Haoran, Zhang Hua, or Qian Shujun had a trump card and strength similar to Su Bai, then their fate would be completely different. They would probably be invited to a convenience store for coffee instead of being disposed of like garbage.

In the story world, especially in this kind of open-ended world with many listeners, it was better to kill the listeners that made enemies with you as a safety precaution. This was because you couldn't guarantee that the listener you looked down on would suddenly appear at a critical moment and bring you an unexpected impact. This was also the reason why Sun Haoran wanted to kill Bi Jin. They could have let Bi Jin fend for himself in the dark well, but they were afraid that if Bi Jin had a fortuitous encounter and was able to leave the dark well alive, even if he couldn't take revenge in this story world, he would have one more enemy in the real world. Even if the probability was really very low, it was still best to kill him.

"Don't touch them. They just helped me," Su Bai said.

"Oh." Feng Yalong curled his lips. "That's interesting."

Wang Yuezhang waved his hand. "Forget it. Let them go. It's already past three in the morning. The werecat has already gone back. Tomorrow will be another beautiful and fresh day."

Pu Yaoyao turned around and walked into the convenience store, followed by Wang Yuezhang, Feng Yalong, and Su Bai.

Next to the off-road vehicle, Sun Haoran and the others slowly struggled to stand up. They used their own clothes to bandage their wounds while supporting each other to leave the place. When the sun rose, the city would return to normal, and they could go to the local hospital for treatment. These injuries weren't particularly serious. At least, they wouldn't cause irreparable damage to their mobility in this story world.

However, there was a strand of cat hair on each of them. This detail was discovered by Su Bai just now. Pu Yaoyao had done it on purpose. Su Bai believed that Wang Yuezhang and Feng Yalong had discovered it too. Therefore, when he said that he would let Sun Haoran and the others go, he was just pushing the boat along with the current. Even if Su Bai didn't say anything, Pu Yaoyao and the others wouldn't take off their pants to fart and leave a tracking device on them before killing them.

… …

"The subway is arriving. Please back off the yellow line. Be careful …"

Su Bai carried a lot of things in his hands and entered the subway with Pu Yaoyao. They would take the 16th stop and go to a place in the suburbs.

Unknowingly, they had been together for almost a week. The four of them didn't get along very well, but they were relatively harmonious. At least, in Su Bai's opinion, it was much more natural than when he was with Sun Haoran and the others. It gave Su Bai the feeling of being a partner with Monk Fatso and the others on a mission.

After placing the things on the seat next to him, Su Bai sat down. Pu Yaoyao sat opposite Su Bai. Most of the time, Pu Yaoyao didn't speak much. However, in the past few days, she found three ordinary people in the city who knew that she was a werecat even without the full moon. The three of them were captured and interrogated, but in the end, there was no news.

According to Wang Yuezhang's analysis, the terror broadcast this time was very vicious. It was estimated that no less than a hundred listeners were sent here. Many of them died, but there should be a lot of them still alive. There were probably no less than ten small groups among them.

If the setting of this story world wasn't in China, and it was set in any other immigrant country, people from the Western circle might also be sent here, and there would be a large-scale war.

The largest number of listeners that Su Bai had experienced before was twenty, so this was a new experience for Su Bai.

After more than half an hour, the subway arrived at the station. Su Bai and Pu Yaoyao both carried their things and got off the train. They walked out of the subway station and walked into a residential house not far away. This place had just been demolished, so there were very few people here. It was a suitable place for the listeners to stay temporarily.

When they opened the door, they saw three werecats tied to chairs in the living room. They were all sound asleep, and Wang Yuezhang was wiping his sweat at the side.

"Still nothing?" Su Bai asked.

Wang Yuezhang nodded. "Not a single clue."

Wang Yuezhang was good at mental power, so they didn't interrogate the werecats who knew their identities physically, but mentally. However, they still didn't find anything.

Feng Yalong was sitting on the sofa in the living room, playing games with a controller. He seemed a little listless, while Pu Yaoyao went to the kitchen to prepare dinner. The four of them took turns to cook every day. Their lives were simple but well-behaved.

Su Bai walked to the balcony and lit a cigarette. After a while, Wang Yuezhang also walked over and stretched out his hand to ask for a cigarette to light as well.

The two men leaned on the balcony with their hands. In front of them was a desolate ruin, and the wind blew a lot of dust.

"I'm really worried that we were forgotten by the terror broadcast." Wang Yuezhang flicked the ash off his cigarette. "It's been so long, and the main quest hasn't been triggered. As far as I know, the earliest listeners who entered this story world have been here for almost three months."

"But we can't do anything but wait." Su Bai blew out a smoke ring and frowned. "Or maybe the terror broadcast has its own reason for doing this. It went through so much trouble to attract so many listeners. Maybe it's trying to do something."

"Team battle," Wang Yuezhang said without hesitation. Obviously, his idea was similar to Su Bai's.

Hundreds of listeners entering a story world, and the riot of the werecats on the evil night of the full moon, were obviously deliberately promoting the emergence of small groups of listeners. All of this should be the terror broadcast's intention. "Team battle", "team battle", and so on, didn't exist in the previous story worlds. At least, they didn't appear clearly. Most of the groups were based on rough interests, and the number of groups wouldn't be so large.

The more groups there were, the stronger the group would be. This forced the listeners who thought they were strong enough to choose a group to enter. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for them to protect themselves in the storm that would follow.

"Do you remember when the terror broadcast stopped broadcasting for three months?" Su Bai asked.

Wang Yuezhang nodded. "I remember. I had a good time during those three months."

"Three months is enough for the terror broadcast to correct the mistakes it made before, or the mistakes it made. At the same time, it might also take advantage of those three months to add some elements and projects to itself, such as team battle."

"I think this should be an experiment for the terror broadcast. Using the environment of the story world to divide the listeners into teams and see the effect. If the effect is good, the mode of teams or squads will also be established in the future. If the effect isn't good, and it doesn't meet the expectations of the terror broadcast, then …"

"It won't." Su Bai interrupted Wang Yuezhang. "Hundreds of listeners and more than ten teams placed in a city. Just think about it, it's an exciting thing."

"You're really crazy." Wang Yuezhang laughed.

Su Bai looked at Wang Yuezhang and smiled. He didn't tell Wang Yuezhang that he was actually crazy in reality.

But soon, Su Bai suddenly frowned and asked, "What is that figure doing there?"

Amidst the ruins, a figure was slowly walking.

"He should be picking up trash," Wang Yuezhang said after looking at it.

Su Bai nodded, but suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something. He quickly turned around and returned to the room. He took a telescope from the sofa where Feng Yalong was sitting. Feng Yalong was a geomancer. Other than the compass, he actually liked to bring a telescope to help him observe the terrain.

He raised the telescope and looked over. Su Bai's expression became solemn. He said in a deep voice, "It should be that the real story is about to begin."

In the lens of the telescope, what appeared was not a scavenger picking up trash in the ruins of the demolition, but an old woman staggering with a stroller. From time to time, the old woman would take out a small hand or a small foot from the stroller and nibble on it,

She seemed to have realized that someone was observing her,

The old woman turned her face and looked over,

She smiled at this side,

Yellowed teeth, wrinkled skin,

And that strange smile and half of a cat's face.
