Chapter 82

Hong Qingsong really regretted it. Unfortunately, it was really too late!

All the NPCs on the small boat were hit by the cannon fire, severely injured, and could not be saved; he had personally caused this. Killing them was not murder, but a release.

It was a case of an eye for an eye.

Dugu Fu showed no mercy, "Pfft! Pfft!" He stabbed Hong Qingsong repeatedly, and in the blink of an eye, Hong Qingsong was stained red in several places.

"You, you, you dare to kill me! My father will make everyone in the Republic of China's world pay with their lives!" Seeing his pleas for mercy were in vain, Hong Qingsong changed from being weak to being fierce and shouted, "When that happens, the whole world will be awash with blood, and no NPC will be left! With the whole world as my company, even if I die, it will be worth it, hahaha!"

"Pfft! Pfft!" Dugu Fu didn't blink, continuing to stab, his expression unchanged. If he couldn't even predict Hong Qingsong's reaction, how could he lead the data special forces? "Do you think I care? By the time your father knows you're dead and comes to take revenge, I'll be long gone from this world."

"..."

"Besides, you've caused me so much trouble. Do you think you can die so easily? Don't worry, I've collected your handwriting, your writing habits, your voice, and your DNA. You will continue to live as an NPC 'hostage' in your father's heart."

"From time to time, he can see the letters you write, hear the words you say, and perhaps even receive your freshly cut ears, nose, fingers, and toes." Dugu Fu looked at Hong Qingsong with interest. "I have to thank you for this. Otherwise, where would I put all those bloody items?"

"!" Hong Qingsong understood, he truly understood!

Dugu Fu not only wanted to kill him but also make his father believe he was still alive, just captured by the NPC resistance. If he were still alive, his father wouldn't dare to launch a military campaign for revenge. Moreover, he would have to follow this guy's orders to ensure he wouldn't be "killed"...

"You, you, you..." Hong Qingsong's eyes went wide, and he made choking sounds. He had planned to go down fighting, but when he really tried, he found that the other party wouldn't give him the chance. Whether he was dead or alive, it didn't matter; the other party didn't care at all...

He had felt like he was about to break down, but when it really happened, he realized that the breakdown was far from enough to describe it. "Wah wah..." Hong Qingsong cried, truly cried, tears streaming down his face, mixed with blood, making him look absolutely terrible.

But did Dugu Fu care? One must take responsibility for one's actions. If he had known this would happen, why did he do it in the first place?

"Pfft! Pfft!" He continued to stab without blinking.

When he was about to stab the last severely injured person, suddenly, Hong Qingsong's body began to glow. In the light, his body shattered like porcelain into thousands of pieces, scattering in the air.

It should have been a beautiful special effect, but with his physique and appearance, there was no trace of beauty. The sky was filled with fragments of his pitiful, miserable, unwilling, and desperate face. He vanished like smoke, leaving a huge explosion on the ground!

The target killed by the God Slaying Technique would drop all items unless the account was banned for a period and could be restored. This was the consequence of being completely erased from the system space.

There were too many items!

Dugu Fu had to abandon most of them and only pick the most essential ones. As an NPC, he couldn't buy system expansion slots, and the default maximum number of backpacks he could bind was three. Players had four, with one additional system backpack.

So even with the luxurious sixteen-slot weightless backpacks that Hong Qingsong had, Dugu Fu's maximum backpack space was only forty-eight slots.

Adding the four-slot time expansion pack he just found, he had fifty-four slots.

It seemed like a lot, but there were various healing potions, secret manuals, martial arts fruits, minerals and leather materials, silver dollars, gold bars, jewelry, silver tickets, bonds, telescopes, lighters, Wuji disks, iron Baguas, remote bombs, mobile phones, and various bags... What should he abandon?

Especially the last type, which Hong Qingsong used to expand his space, but which would take up space on Dugu Fu.

But could he throw them away?

Compared to everything else, the bags were the most valuable. In cross-world transactions, bags were hard currency, while everything else often lost value when crossing worlds.

Therefore, the bags had to be kept: six-slot space, four-slot weight reduction, eight-slot weightless, and three extra sixteen-slot weightless.

There were also two full four-slot time expansion packs. One contained ginseng, blood tree, tiger king bone, and top-grade martial arts rice; the other contained tiger king skin, tiger king heart, tiger king gallbladder, and tiger king eyes, which were for crafting a set of equipment.

Even Dugu Fu found this situation challenging.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up. From the mountain of dropped items, he quickly found a book box.

This was a good thing!

It was also a type of expansion pack, but it took up more space, at least four slots. However, its capacity was large, able to hold dozens or even hundreds of books, though only books.

"Shua shua shua!" He stuffed the book box into an empty space and quickly put all the secret manuals inside. Seeing the pile of dropped items shrink, Dugu Fu sighed in relief and continued working.

While he was busy, a voice suddenly sounded on the quiet boat: "Sir, that guy... he, he's dead?"

Dugu Fu looked up, remembering there was still a living person on the boat. To be safe, he had found thirteen severely injured people, two of whom died during the wait. After using the God Slaying Technique, Jiaozi Pi was the only survivor. He nodded, "He can't die again."

"Then... sir, was that guy's threat real? If he dies, will his father make everyone pay with their lives? Is his father a big figure among the Celestials?"

"Um." Dugu Fu nodded honestly, "But I won't let that happen."

"I believe in you, sir." Jiaozi Pi nodded. "On behalf of the deceased villagers, I thank you for avenging us." He used all his strength to bow to Dugu Fu with difficulty.

"No need." Dugu Fu quickly supported him, "I did it for myself too."

This was the truth.

Looking at the dropped items, no wonder NPCs were so interested in the God Slaying Technique. Each player was a mobile treasure trove for NPCs!

After asking about the situation and expressing his gratitude, Jiaozi Pi sighed and fell silent. He was a dying man, yet he had been alive for so long that Dugu Fu even suspected he might be a key character who couldn't die until a task was completed.

Letting the small boat drift on the water, Dugu Fu continued to collect his spoils of war while thinking.
