Chapter 86

"Damn it!"

Seeing victory within reach after killing Zhang Yuoshan, how could Roger tolerate being eliminated at this moment? With a roar, he was about to charge forward.

However...

Bang!

A loud explosion shattered the ground beside him, sending fragments of rock flying like bullets, one of which even grazed Roger's cheek.

Cang Xing smiled and patted the Nuya beside him: "Don't underestimate the terror of Nuya's spray, okay? Besides, the Nuya I created is the [Initial Evolutionary Form Nuya]. Although it's harder to control than the improved version we've seen before, at least... hehe, it's several times more powerful."

"Here!" Taking advantage of Roger's hesitation, Zhang Yuoshan flicked his wrist, and the golden card flew back to Cang Xing's hand.

"Fifty thousand in the bank~~!" Cang Xing laughed, and with a casual wave, the other four Nuyas had already carried ten corpses from the stage lift.

Since only thirteen Nuyas could be transformed by the drug, and Cang Xing had used ten vials to create only five, the ten vials of the Light Guardians could only produce seven effective Nuyas.

Soon, seven corpses exploded, and an equal number of Nuyas rose from the remains.

Roger sat on the ground in despair, while Zhang Yuoshan laughed heartily to the sky.

Ye Yun, Venessa, and Earth Dragon, of course, also wore sorrowful expressions.

In this situation, they were no match for the enemy.

"Oh dear, I really don't like your expressions~~!"

Cang Xing squatted down, smiling, and shouted to Roger through the microphone: "Major Roger, catch!"

A beam of golden light shot from his hand and landed in Roger's hand.

Roger instinctively caught it and, after a few seconds, looked up in shock: "You mean... to kill the Nuyas for me? Not let me be eliminated?"

"Of course."

"Ha ha ha!" Zhang Yuoshan laughed, pointing at Cang Xing from a distance: "You perverted freak, you're too delusional! Do you think you can cheat me and then turn around and do business with others? Do you really think I'm stupid?"

"Yes, what's the problem?" Cang Xing's expression was innocent.

Zhang Yuoshan was not angry, but he sneered: "The contract you gave me only states that you will turn all the drugs into Nuyas. Did you think I wouldn't consider the possibility that you might sell me out? Unfortunately, you're too naive. Even if you really have a deal with a mysterious organization, at this stage, how could they possibly let you kill so many Nuyas? Do you really think they won't resist? Don't forget, they have their own missions! And even if you can kill the Nuyas, do you think you can escape from the encirclement of Venessa and the others? I've thought through every key issue beforehand, so... hehe!"

"Major Roger, will you sign or not?" Cang Xing shrugged, ignoring Zhang Yuoshan and instead asked Roger.

Roger was taken aback, quickly signed the contract, and threw the golden card back to Cang Xing: "I don't care what you're thinking, but the contract clearly states that if you can't kill enough Nuyas to complete my mission and prevent my elimination, then... you will join me in death!"

"Another twenty thousand in the bank... hehehe."

Cang Xing smiled, and suddenly snapped his fingers.

Boom!

A loud explosion rang out, and a nearby Nuya instantly exploded, the force of the explosion so powerful that almost no bones were left!

Seeing the stunned expressions of the crowd, Cang Xing looked as if he were high, showing an incredibly intoxicated expression: "It's this feeling of toying with others' fates~~ Give me more surprised, shocked, and terrified expressions!"

"How... how is that possible?" Zhang Yuoshan shouted in disbelief: "How did you do it?"

Cang Xing spread his hands: "You see, everything can be figured out. After creating the first Nuya, I thought of a question—Nuyas are transformed from humans, meaning they are born from human bodies. What if the key part of the human body that is transformed into a Nuya contains a remote-controlled bomb?"

As he spoke, he snapped his fingers again, and another Nuya exploded!

"Look at these remaining Nuyas..."

Cang Xing pointed to the remaining Nuyas behind him. These monsters, specialized for killing, now showed no trace of their usual ferocity and wildness, instead trembling and huddling together like condemned prisoners awaiting execution.

"Since they are the Initial Evolutionary Form Nuyas, even the Nuya controllers cannot effectively manipulate them, only issuing a single command for them to follow. This reduces the binding power in a one-to-many situation. For example, in the Line 3 subway or at Zhang Yafen's house, one Nuya controller could control four to five Nuyas. But with this Initial Evolutionary Form, one Nuya controller can control a maximum of three."

Cang Xing explained patiently: "You might not believe it, but they have been following my orders and have not been controlled by their killing instincts because, through their keen instincts, they discovered that I am the one controlling their lives... These monsters, which cannot be killed by ordinary bullets or external explosions and have no sense of pain, can actually feel the bombs inside them. Isn't that funny? Hahaha!"

Cang Xing laughed happily, but the others' expressions grew increasingly grim.

Seeing the serious expressions of the crowd, Cang Xing continued: "Let's do some math... Major Roger's previous task completion rate was 11/14. I created thirteen Nuyas and destroyed two myself, so Major Roger's current task completion rate is 13/27, which means..."

He snapped his fingers again, and another Nuya in the group exploded to death: "This way, Major Roger's task completion rate reaches 14/27, meeting the 50% requirement to avoid elimination, right?"

He looked at the purple-faced Zhang Yuoshan: "And I still have ten Nuyas in my hands, so I don't have to worry about Lieutenant Ye Yun and Miss Venessa hurting me, right?"

"After that..." Cang Xing suddenly laughed uncontrollably, stopping after a while, but his mouth began to twitch from laughing too much: "You see, with a small trick, I already have 700,000 game points. I'm starting to find this game really fun. So, how about we make a deal with these remaining ten Nuyas?"

Roger and Zhang Yuoshan both looked serious: "What do you mean..."

"I thought about it, and actually, disrupting this faction's main storyline isn't very profitable. So, as long as I don't kill Miss Kula, Mr. Ye Yun won't try to kill me for the time being." He bowed slightly to Ye Yun: "Am I right?"

Ye Yun didn't believe him: "What are you up to?"

Cang Xing smiled: "It's like this. If I kill the remaining ten Nuyas, Major Roger's task completion rate will reach 24/27. The system is very generous with such small differences, which means Major Roger's completion rate will be counted as 90%. This way, the lives of Miss Venessa, Mr. Zhang Yusheng, and this old Mr. Zhang will be eliminated. Whether I need the Nuyas to protect myself is already meaningless, isn't it?"

"Right!" Earth Dragon was overjoyed and stepped forward: "How much do you want this time?"

Roger naturally hoped Cang Xing would do this, but he couldn't bring himself to ask, as he was already short of money after paying Cang Xing 200,000 game points.

Zhang Yuoshan's face turned white, and he shouted: "How can you be so untrustworthy! I... you..."

"Don't bark like a defeated dog," Venessa shouted: "Zhang Yuoshan, you looked so smug when you thought you had outsmarted Cang Xing, but now you look like a victim. Isn't that embarrassing? Or do you hope someone will be a hero and save you?"

Zhang Yuoshan was truly panicked. Most of the Hong Kong and Kowloon military's funds were in the hands of a subordinate who managed the treasury. This subordinate was clearly dead in the previous battle, and the person who killed him was probably also dead, so the funds were lost. In that situation, even if someone dropped their game badge, no one had time to pick it up. After half an hour, the system had already reclaimed it!

Zhang Yuoshan had already paid out his only 500,000 game points, and now he had no money to 'buy' his life from Cang Xing.

In a state of extreme distress, Zhang Yuoshan suddenly looked at Ye Yun and shouted: "Aren't you my son's friend? My son is Zhang Yusheng! You just defeated the Uncanny Wolf with him! Major Roger doesn't have much money left. If you lend me 100,000 game points now, I'll pay you back 300,000 after the faction's main storyline ends. After all, we have no conflict of interest, right?"
