"Are you sure you want to make the first move?" The referee looked doubtful as he asked. His tone didn't seem to be fake. Li Xiang was sure that he didn't know the location of the small gas tank in the steam pistol.
"I'm sure." Li Xiang nodded affirmatively and looked at Bai Jiaqi. The young master of the Bai family was a little restless at the moment. On one hand, he hoped to beat Li Xiang on the Russian roulette. On the other hand, he suspected that Li Xiang was hiding some big move. He actually had a way to win even if he guessed first.
Bai Jiaqi's every move fell into Li Xiang's eyes. This made him even more certain that the young master had been bewitched to challenge him. Unfortunately, things had already come to this point. He was bound to take this gas column.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Li Xiang picked up the steam pistol, calmly pointed it at his temple, and gently pulled the trigger.
There was only a soft "click" sound. The roulette spun, but nothing came out of the barrel.
This time, a huge amount of pressure fell on Bai Jiaqi.
"It's your turn, Young Master Bai." Li Xiang handed the steam pistol to him. He trembled as he took the steam pistol. His gaze was a little erratic.
Bai Jiaqi gritted her teeth, but she still raised the steam pistol and placed it above her head. In the Sky Arena, the authority of competition was not to be violated. If one person successfully broke the rules, there would be a second, a third, and so on …
Wessex Technology naturally wouldn't let this happen.
The same "click" sound came from the muzzle. Bai Jiaqi immediately breathed a sigh of relief. The hearts of the group of young people watching from below also fell.
"Haha, it's your turn, it's your turn." Compared to Li Xiang's steadiness, Bai Jiaqi was a little crazy at the moment. He threw the steam pistol in his hand to Li Xiang as if he was throwing a hot potato.
Li Xiang took the gun and looked at his expression. He sighed in his heart. Bai Jiaqi was a little stupid, but he didn't understand why he died like this. He was moved, but there was nothing he could do.
Competition was never a safe thing. In this world, if you wanted to obtain a certain amount of benefits, then there would be nothing safe!
Ever since he took his first step on the Polar night and came to Hangzhou, he had understood this point when he went on a mission with Dong Ling and Lan's family.
"Bada …"
The dull buzzing sound rang out again, and everyone's hearts were in their mouths again.
After Li Xiang's shot, half of the six shots were gone. He had already fired twice, and there was only one shot left. In terms of probability, it was very likely that Bai Jiaqi would die.
The smile on Bai Jiaqi's face gradually froze. Why was his luck so good?
The steam pistol was thrown back once again, like the Grim Reaper wanting to reap his life away.
Bai Jiaqi held the steam pistol and was speechless for a while.
"It's really exciting. This shot might be it. Will blood and brain matter pop out of Young Master Bai's head like this?" Some busybodies were still laughing. Russian roulette was a game that was hard to come by in a thousand years. In the Sky Arena, very few people would bet on it, unless they had a huge grudge.
But if there really was a grudge, the other party would not agree.
Not only did they really bet on it, but the stakes were also very high.
The smell of gunpowder in the arena was very strong.
Bai Jiaqi's face was uncertain. In the end, he made up his mind and shot fiercely.
It was still empty.
"Phew …" He let out a long breath, but at the same time, his whole body was a little weak. After this shot, it was the last joint.
The link that would determine the life and death of the two people.
In the last two shots, either Li Xiang would die in the next shot, or he would die in the last shot. It could be said that the two people had returned to the same starting line after a round of psychological battle.
Everyone was extremely nervous, waiting for the result of the shot. Li Xiang, on the other hand, was unusually relaxed. He was the only one who knew the result of Russian Roulette from the beginning. He did not want to pretend to be nervous and play the pig to eat the tiger.
Indifferent and calm.
His fingers caressed the shell of the steam pistol. He had an inexplicable fondness for any gun. His master had repeatedly mentioned that every gun had its own life and soul. If you used it as a tool, it would only treat you as a user who was passing by in a hurry and could die at any time.
If you treated it as an indispensable partner in your life, then it would also treat you as its only master in your life.
The Black Snake was like this.
It had been shattered in his own hands, and its remains had helped Li Xiang block that fatal blow, not letting the Kuang Tie's self-destruction kill him and Ming Xu.
Perhaps it sounded very mysterious, but in Li Xiang's perception, it was like this.
It had returned the favor of his creation in this way.
"Then what about you? Who was the one who created you?" Li Xiang was startled. His index finger moved slightly, and he gently pulled the trigger.
That hollow cry sounded like different sounds in different people's ears.
Bai Jiaqi, who had been anxiously waiting, suddenly fell to the ground, as if all of her life force had been sucked out.
"I, I'm going to die …" Bai Jiaqi's mind was filled with the image of her temple being shattered by the pillar of air. The more she thought about it, the more scared she became. She couldn't even move her body.
The youths of the Mechanical Church below finally understood what true despair was, but they were powerless to change the outcome of their boss. None of them were qualified to go against the Sky Arena.
The referee's expression changed slightly. He quietly transferred all of the points to Li Xiang's name.
"Young Master Bai, have a safe trip." Li Xiang smiled like a demon. He picked up the steam pistol and walked towards Bai Jiaqi who was paralyzed on the ground. He was so scared that he kept retreating, but Li Xiang held him down with one hand.
What amazing arm strength!
A light flashed in the referee's eyes. He was a true magic apprentice, so his eyesight was much better than normal people's. Thus, he had felt Li Xiang's attack the moment he made his move.
This youth who looked less than 20 years old was probably stronger than him!
"Young Master Bai, do you think that there are some things that you have done wrong in your life?" Li Xiang stuffed the steam pistol into his hand and suddenly asked in a low voice, "In the Civic Center building, you wanted to forcibly take my friend away for human experimentation. You have done a lot of things like this, right?"
"I, I have done a little …" Bai Jiaqi was completely confused. His mind was filled with the miserable state of losing. He mechanically answered Li Xiang's question like a puppet.
"Pray. Guns also have their own lives and judgments. If you are sincere and plan to be a good person in the future, you might not die." Li Xiang patted his cheek. The Bai Clan Mark on his palm sent a tingling sensation like an electric current, which made the confused Bai Jiaqi sober up a little.
"What, what kind of joke is this …" Bai Jiaqi trembled as he raised the steam pistol. However, he didn't cry or refute. He pointed it at his temple and whispered, "If prayer is useful …"
Did I really do a lot of things that went too far?
Did I really deserve it?
When he was on the verge of death, Li Xiang's words appeared in his mind as if it was a coincidence.
If, if I can do it all over again …
On the other side, Li Xiang had already jumped down from the arena and walked to the lounge under everyone's gaze. He wanted to have a good sleep and then carefully think about what to do after going to the 21st floor.
As for here …
There was no gunshot behind his head. He smiled faintly and hoped that this Young Master Bai, who was not too bad, could turn over a new leaf.
Letting Bai Jiaqi go was a decision he made after careful consideration and a combination of various factors.
Bai Jiaqi didn't deserve to die. Besides, this kid was arrogant, but his heart wasn't too bad. He was not the same kind of person as Kuang Tie. At the same time, he didn't want to provoke another Bai Family Councilor at this moment.
