"Who are you?" After hearing this, Huang Dachui was the first to speak. "Don't hide, if you have the guts, fight …"
"… fight you fair and square?" Feng Bujue interrupted him. "Hmph … Aren't you too naive to say such a line?"
His voice drifted, sometimes close and sometimes far, sometimes high and sometimes low, making it impossible to determine his specific location through his voice.
The way to create this effect was to use the [Deceit Pocket Watch]'s voice-changing and amplifying function to constantly change the volume of his voice while moving at high speed.
Although this was a bit tiring, it did achieve the goal of mystifying things. Of course, there was a prerequisite to play this trick … The surrounding visibility must be very low.
"My friend … from what you're saying … you were the one who sent that robot?" Basic Man's reaction was obviously different from Huang Dachui's. As expected of an expert, the first sentence he spoke was a substantial question.
"That's right." Feng Bujue gave a definite answer and added, "And … I'm the only one who can cure the disease in your body."
This sentence … was also the truth.
During the time when Musashi was processing Infected Fighter No. 1, Brother Jue took the time to search for all the Z-virus stock solution and anti-virus serum remaining in Allerbmu's building. Then, he asked Kogini to equip Infected Fighter No. 1 with all the viruses …
The bullets and miniature missiles fired by the Infected Fighter were all virus vectors. Once they hit the surface of an object, they would volatilize the virus in a gaseous state. In other words … Even if the Infected Fighter's attack did not directly hit the members of the Golden Warhammer Team, as long as the bullets exploded near them, they could still achieve the goal of infection. It was impossible to guard against.
As for the Z-virus anti-virus serum … Brother Jue only kept a small part of it in his backpack as a precaution. The rest of the serum was all destroyed by him.
"Let me guess …" Basic Man said in a deep voice, "The true face of this [Disease] … is the Z-virus?"
"Your reaction is quite fast," Feng Bujue said with a smile. "Why don't you guess what I'm going to tell you next?"
"If everything you've said so far is true, then I think the only reason you're communicating with us is to 'humiliate' us," Basic Man replied.
"Very good. Just based on this reasoning alone, you can be considered a powerful character," Feng Bujue praised.
Before he could finish his sentence, Huang Dachui snorted coldly, "Hmph … who do you think you are? How dare a coward like you comment on the vice-captain of the Golden Warhammer Team? "
"Oh? Is he the vice-captain … "Feng Bujue continued," Don't tell me you're the captain … "
"So what?!" Huang Dachui roared.
"That's really …" In the next second, Feng Bujue's voice appeared behind Huang Dachui. "That's easy …"
The moment he said that, a dagger (Bell's daily knife) was pressed against Huang Dachui's throat.
When Basic Man, Wonder Fighter, and Mystic King came back to their senses, Brother Jue had already used a standard hostage position to hold the captain of the Golden Warhammer Team from behind. He said, "Everyone, calm down. Let's have a chat."
"You … you …" This time, Huang Dachui panicked. The rifle in his hand couldn't hit the enemy at this distance and position. In terms of physical skills … Huang Dachui's C-grade fighting mastery was nothing. The possibility of him escaping with his own body was close to zero.
"I say … Brother Captain, looking at your arrogance just now … I thought you were one of those daring types." Feng Bujue was surprised by Huang Dachui's reaction. He laughed coldly. "So you're scared now …"
"Friend, do you think there's any meaning in taking a hostage in a situation like this?" Basic Man stared at Brother Jue and walked closer to ask.
"No?" Feng Bujue replied with a smile. "Then why don't you just attack us?"
He had hit the nail on the head. Taking ten thousand steps back … even if they only used the hostage as a shield, it was still meaningful.
"Okay …" Basic Man hesitated for two seconds before asking, "… What do you want to talk to us about?"
"Ha …" Feng Bujue replied. "I just want to … play a game with you."
"That's weird!" Mystic King said. "If you want to fight, then fight. Don't play these tricks!"
"Fight? Do you think there's a need for me to fight you? " Feng Bujue laughed. "You've all been infected by the Z Virus. In less than three hours, you'll all be wiped out. What's there to fight?" He paused. "By the way, the only antidote in this scenario is inside my inventory. Unless I'm willing to give it to you, otherwise … even if I die, you'll still die."
"That's why … I don't understand …" Basic Man took several steps closer. "Since you've already done so much, why did you show yourself?" His reaction was sharp. "You should stay as far away from us as possible. If you can drag this out for three hours, your team will win, right?"
"Yes," Feng Bujue replied. "But I don't want to win so soon."
"What did you say?" At this moment, Odd Warrior also walked up to him and said, "What do you mean?"
"Let me put it this way …" Feng Bujue said. "I have some grievances with the boss of this scenario that I need to deal with, and I don't want to leave the scenario so soon. But … I don't want to be disturbed by you, and I don't want my teammates to be disturbed by you." He paused for half a second. "Therefore, I came up with this idea."
"Ha! What a joke! "Mystic King scoffed." You expect us to believe that kind of nonsense? " He snorted coldly. "As Brother Alkali said, if you really did what you said, then do you still need to show up? You could've just found a place to hide and waited for us to die. "His eyes narrowed." From how I see it … the virus you infected us with is not some Z Virus, right? You infected us with some kind of normal virus and then came out to lie and lay a trap for us to jump into. "
"It's your freedom to think that way," Feng Bujue replied. "It's also your freedom to decide whether to join my game or not." He sounded confident. "I'll say it again … without my antidote, you'll die. Even if you kill me, it won't solve the problem."
"Then why don't you tell me …" Basic Man said. "What is the content of your so-called game?"
"It's very simple." Feng Bujue replied. "After I leave you, I'll go find a hidden and safe place and hide the antidote for four people there. Then, I'll leave some clues around the city to lead you to that location." He paused for two seconds. "If you can't find the antidote in three hours, then goodbye … but if you can find it, then congratulations, and the game will continue."
After he said that, Basic Man was silent for a moment before continuing. "I have two questions … One is what my teammates said …" He looked at Mystic King. "How do we know you infected us with the Z Virus?" He paused for half a second. "Two, even if we're infected with the Z Virus, even if you're really trying to prolong the scenario to deal with the scenario boss … how can we be sure that you'll really leave the antidote at the place you promised?"
"Yes!" Wonder Fighter agreed. "Who knows if you'll use a bunch of 'clues' to trick us into running around and leaving us with nothing in the end?"
"Haha … I understand your concern, but … I don't need to tell you that these two points can't be proven." Feng Bujue replied. "Other than that … I don't need to prove anything. I'm just describing the situation and leaving the choice to you. To believe it or not, to do it or not, it's all up to you … "
Brother Jue's eyes scanned the faces of the three professional players, and he smiled. "In any case … if you believe that you're infected with the Z Virus and that only I have the antidote … then you have three choices — one, swarm me, pray that you can capture me, and successfully force me to hand over the antidote; two, find my whole team in three hours and wipe them out; three, play this game with me."
He did a good job, saving them a lot of time to think and analyze.
"Hmph … I think … we can try these three options one by one." When Basic Man replied, he had already signaled to two of his teammates.
In the next second, the three of them dashed out and quickly surrounded Brother Jue.
"You're overthinking it." Feng Bujue did not appear to be in a hurry. As he replied, he pushed the hammer forward.
While the sledgehammer was still stumbling forward, Brother Jue had already leaped into the air like a firecracker.
"Don't let him get away!" Basic Man shouted as he leaped into the air.
At the same time, Wonder Fighter did the same. The Mystic King's long-range skill had already chased after Brother Jue before the two of them.
However … the three of them couldn't even touch Brother Jue's toes.
Just like when he first appeared, Feng Bujue's body suddenly appeared from the fog and disappeared into it just as abruptly. Like a ghost, he disappeared without a trace.
"Damn it …" Basic Man said solemnly after he landed. "This guy either has some special stealth skill or he's extremely fast and has superb air movement skills …"
"Basic … Basic Bro …" Huang Dachui, who was still in shock, finally spoke. "What should we do now?"
This question was also in the minds of Wonder Fighter and the Mystic King.
"What else can we do …" Basic Man replied helplessly. "Didn't he already help us sort out the three options?" He laughed bitterly. "Ha … of course, there's still the fourth option, which is to gamble … Gamble that what we have isn't the 'Z virus' and ignore the effects of this' disease '."
"This …" Wonder Fighter continued, "I'm afraid we can't afford to gamble …"
"That's right, we can't afford to gamble," Basic Man said. "So we can only follow what that man said … and play his' game '."
