Chapter 37

Peyang no longer relied on Chuci for help. In fact, he felt a sense of relief, for in the end, this grudge could only be avenged by himself!

The two men resumed their struggle, blood mixed with mud, flesh entangled with sand, each punch and slash landing with deadly force. In the end, both lost their reason, unable to utter a complete sound, like two wild beasts driven mad, locked in a deadly embrace.

The dagger had long been discarded. Peyang, now blind, had two empty black sockets for eyes. Ye Jun's left face was completely caved in, resembling a demon, yet it was unclear how he was still alive.

Peyang let out a hoarse roar and bit into Ye Jun's throat, completely abandoning his dignity as a human being!

At that very moment.

Whoosh!

A rocket-propelled grenade followed, exploding with a loud bang, sending the two struggling men skyward.

"Hmph! I didn't act earlier, but only when I was sure of success," Chuci said, a cigarette in his mouth, the RPG-7 on his shoulder still smoking.

If he had acted too early, the two might have managed to dodge. By pretending to be an innocent bystander, he made them let their guard down, fighting until they were exhausted, which was the best time to strike.

Chuci was not a good person, at least not in his own opinion. So, regardless of who was right or wrong between Peyang and Ye Jun, or what grudges and enmities they had, he ignored it all. The RPG-7, which cost 100 reward points, was worth it to eliminate two veterans, Chuci thought.

Turning a loss into a gain, the sixteen additional hearts in the Zoocyst space made Chuci smile. With this, all the veterans, except for the missing Su Jiayou, had met their end at Chuci's hands.

The new轮回者s, apart from Gao Yuan, who had been observed earlier, were basically non-interfering factors. Next, the plan was to target the organizers.

Chuci did not want to hand over the loot from his space to complete the mission. So, after finding the half-disabled Angus, the three of them, dragging the little oil bottle Cheng Rui, began to sweep the remaining participants on the isolated island. By the eighth day, they had gathered enough for four people.

"We can start now," Chuci said, looking at Bond. Getting a nod of confirmation, he immediately shouted loudly, "The game is over."

The control system operators of the isolated island had been closely monitoring Chuci and the others. Finally, hearing him declare the end of the game, they felt a great relief.

"Thank goodness, this killer is finally leaving!" Pete, who had been deemed unfit for duty by the man in military uniform, was the happiest. He quickly called for the others to activate the retrieval program and isolate the four.

Before Chuci and the others could react, the ground beneath them began to rise. Four launchers disguised as trees automatically shed their camouflage, revealing a silvery metallic sheen. The air vents opened, scanned, and positioned, forming a square space with four blinding laser walls, enclosing the four inside.

"Don't move, this is probably an isolation measure," Chuci said, seeing Angus about to act, and quickly stopped him.

In less than half an hour, a transport helicopter flew in from the east, stopping above the four. Chuci was puzzled why it didn't land, but a rope ladder dropped from the helicopter, stopping about half a meter from the ground.

"Climb up, I'm responsible for getting you out of here," a staff member called out from the helicopter's cabin, using a megaphone.

"Let's go, we'll act as the situation allows," Chuci signaled to Bond, climbing the rope ladder first and flipping into the cabin.

The helicopter's cabin was not large, with only ten seats besides the pilot's seat. Apart from two armed men in black and the staff member, there was a machine of unknown purpose.

"Please check," Chuci handed a string of hearts, pickled in coarse salt, to the staff member.

"No need, we have surveillance," the staff member, looking disgusted, quickly refused and did not take the hearts from Chuci.

"Understood," Chuci was happy to keep them, flipping his hand to store them in the Zoocyst space. He then walked to the cabin door, took Cheng Rui from Angus's arms, and helped the still recovering Angus up, followed by Bond.

Once everyone was in place, the staff member called into the radio, and the helicopter turned and flew back to its origin.

The subsequent events were largely within Chuci and Bond's control. As soon as they entered the core of the isolated island control system, the two turned against the others, killing everyone on the helicopter and rushing out of the helipad.

Bond displayed superior infiltration and assassination skills, often killing a guard and then transforming into his appearance to continue infiltrating deeper. When he encountered another guard, he would strike again. Chuci, on the other hand, showed more violent killing power, using his weapons freely and letting Crimson take control, moving like a swift leopard, charging through the core base, killing anyone in his path.

During this time, they encountered the man in the military uniform, a truly mature superhuman with the ability to manipulate metal, more powerful than Gao Yuan. Chuci's bullets were useless, and he was chased to the point of spitting blood. Soon, he met Angus, who displayed abilities far surpassing the man in the military uniform!

Because Angus was the space traveler marked for suppression in this killing game!

His ability to manifest was—teleportation!

A space traveler proficient in killing and combat techniques, with superhuman abilities that could be used freely, was a true death god in the core base, where space interference did not exist. With a single teleport, he avoided the metal javelins controlled by the man in the military uniform, and with a bare-handed strike, he cut the man's throat. The man in the military uniform, in pain, retreated, and with another teleport, Angus appeared behind him, dislocating his bones and turning him into a writhing human stick. With a fist, his middle finger slightly protruding, he struck the man's back of the head. The man's eyes rolled back, showing that he was now a vegetable.

"Damn, that's too strong!" Chuci was dumbfounded, his admiration for Angus like the Yangtze River, endless.

"Leave it to you," Angus showed no pride, probably because such situations had happened many times. Indeed, it was difficult to come up with a countermeasure against a superhuman proficient in teleportation, without knowing the distance, energy consumption, or principles involved.

This time, Chuci's shot was no longer deflected by the man in the military uniform. A thumb-sized blood hole appeared in the man's forehead, and red and white fluid streamed down his face.

"Let's go, this is just a high-level henchman, the mastermind is someone else!" Chuci called to Angus, heading deeper inside. Bond, who found it easier to infiltrate, was probably already at the entrance.

Sure enough, when the two had killed all the guards and staff, they saw Bond crouching at the door, lifting a body to test the electronic lock with its fingerprint, and checking another body to see if it was the right one.

"Bond, you're confused!" Chuci rolled his eyes. Ordinary people, once they gained superpowers, often forgot to use them in critical situations, while someone like Bond would forget conventional methods and try to expand the use of new technologies.

Bond, realizing his mistake, blushed and reluctantly got up, attaching the decoder to the electronic lock.

The decoder quickly connected to the control chip in Chuci's brain, and Crimson took over the decoding. Three seconds later, the electronic lock turned from red to green.

"Beep~~" The door opened.

Bond, knowing he had made a mistake, hurried in first, trying to salvage his image. Unfortunately, there was no more resistance inside. The researchers and managers surrendered, and the mastermind, who had used the game to make money through betting worldwide, had already fled on a submarine.

"Submarine, huh." Chuci sneered, quickly scanning the control center. The technology in this control center far exceeded Chuci's expectations, not from 20 years in the future, but 50 to 70 years. However, in terms of algorithms, it was still no match for the evolved Crimson. Chuci took out his computer and a universal data cable from the Main God, and in a few quick moves, planted Crimson's program in the heart of the control system.

The researchers initially scoffed at Chuci's actions, but within three minutes, a large screen displayed True Crimson (the name Matrix Eve gave to Crimson), who had evolved from a little girl to a twelve-year-old girl.

"Sir, the isolated island ecological control system is at your service."

"Very good, check all the armaments, and list all the ones that can..." Chuci looked at the pale faces of the researchers and managers, and slowly said, "sink the submarine."

"No, you can't do that!" a manager tried to stop him.

"Bang!"

Chuci blew on the smoking gun barrel and sneered, "I'm not a soldier, don't think I won't kill prisoners."

Two torpedoes, which only Angus could name, silently launched into the blue sea.

A few minutes later, Chuci received a satisfactory notification from the Main God.

"Rescuing Angus and Cheng Rui, destroying the isolated island forces, 20,000 reward points, two B-level side quests."

"Main quest changed, detecting that the traveler Chuci has completed the original main quest, forced return."

Caught off guard, Chuci couldn't properly say goodbye to Angus and the little girl Cheng Rui. He could only whisper, "Goodbye," under Angus's surprised gaze.

His vision blurred, and Chuci was once again teleported by the Main God.

...

"Huh? Where is this?" Chuci opened his eyes, but it wasn't the dilapidated place from last time. Instead, he appeared in a space more like the one described in novels—a wide circular platform, with no walls around the ceiling, and black void outside. There were two doors on either side of the platform, leading to unknown places. The appearance of the Main God hadn't changed, but it was now five meters above the ground.

What surprised Chuci even more was that so many people had returned this time.

Really, Chuci had initially estimated that only Su Jiayou and Gao Yuan might return, but to his surprise, Shang Manxue, Gu Qingqing, and Liu Dian had also returned.

"Truly unexpected," Chuci couldn't help but look sideways. From the aura of Shang Manxue and Liu Dian, it seemed they had also had some extraordinary experiences. Gu Qingqing was clearly relying on Shang Manxue, but even so, the survival rate was surprisingly high.

Twelve travelers went, and six returned, a survival rate much higher than what Adam had said.

PS: Today, the backend notified me that there will be a strong recommendation in the category channel this weekend. So, I decided to have a major update. From now until 12:00 PM on the 28th, for every 200 recommendations, I will add one chapter, and for every 5,000 rewards, I will add one chapter, up to a maximum of 20 chapters, all to be completed within a week.

PS2: Future updates will be changed again. As my writing speed has improved, I will change from three chapters every two days to two chapters per day.
