Chapter 145: Murder and Lottery
Chapter 145: Murder and Lottery
After being severely poked, Candy felt extreme pain in her eyeball and the world was spinning around her. She saw nothing but whiteness. The fear of blindness instantly ruled her mind, so Candy immediately made a sharp scream. Then, she covered his face on the spot and trembled violently all over her body.
After all, she was only a girl in her twenties without any systematic training. Suddenly suffering such a shock that her eyes couldn’t see, it wasn’t surprising that she would collapse temporarily.
Seeing this scene, Fang Linyan backed up a few steps and dashed up, then he lowered his posture when approaching Candy, pushing her out together with him in a half-carrying posture.
If it was Fang Linyan before, he would definitely not be able to do such a thing, but he now had 10 points in strength, which was close to the strength of 2 normal adults. He pushed Candy out for 7 meters, then they fell from the cliff!
However, when Fang Linyan rushed out of the cliff, he directly activated the jetpack. At the same time, he pushed Candy hard, making her lose her balance and also giving himself more buffer time.
Under Fang Linyan’s vicious push, Candy flew down in an arc, and her head hit the hard rock below. Blood immediately splashed around, and she fainted directly. Under the thrust of the jetpack, Fang Linyan moved in a √ trajectory, flying up to the sky.
Then Fang Linyan turned back and landed behind Candy. He pulled her hair and exposed her throat.
“No, don’t kill… I was wrong. I apologize, okay?”
At this time, Candy finally knew fear. 2 lines of tears flowed down her face as she began to beg for mercy.
At the same time, she was struggling hard to get rid of Fang Linyan’s hand.
In the next second, Fang Linyan used a dagger to cut her throat mercilessly…. The blood spurted out immediately into a mist!
Fang Linyan let go of his hand indifferently. Candy covered her throat and struggled violently on the ground. Her white slowly turned white. She tried to hold onto her life, but this was futile. Although she was unwilling, she couldn’t resist the loss of life.
A series of prompts quickly popped on Fang Linyan’s retinas,
“You caused 4 damage to Contractor: lz94dd.”
“Contractor: lz94dd is in a dying state. Your attack has caused fatal damage.”
“Contractor: lz94dd is dead.”
“Prompt: Contractor: lz94dd is the leader of the team. Carrying item, bloody map, that will be dropped after death. If necessary, please remember to pick it up.”
Seeing the word “contractor” in the prompt, Fang Linyan was surprised… To be honest, he did fight with a contractor before, but this was obviously a joint trial and the space wanted to choose good seeds from it. How could Candy become a contractor suddenly?
Reminiscent of the scene when he first saw candy, Fang Linyan couldn’t help muttering to himself,
“Could it be that this woman broke through the limit and burst out her potential in an extreme environment, so she became a contractor? Because of this, her temperament has become paranoid?”
As for the fact that the bloody map would fall after death, probably only the picker knew about it at the time. Unless the team leader was a fool, then no one would definitely tell this to others.
At this time Fang Linyan didn’t have time to think about it, because someone on the cliff was chasing after while shooting at him. He grabbed Candy’s dog tag, bloody key and of course the bloody map as well, then he activated the jetpack and disappeared from their sight.
After Fang Linyan used the jetpack to fly for 300 meters, he immediately took it off. After confirming that it was not damaged, he continued to trot for 600 meters. After seeing no one around, he hid in an unmanned house beside.
At this time, the bloody state on him had disappeared. His HP had changed from 69/210 points to 16/50 points.
Fang Linyan was stunned for a moment before realizing it. After the bloody state was over, the 20 HP bonus for each dog tag was gone. His remaining HP was according to the proportion of the lost HP.
To be honest, having HP suddenly dropped to the upper limit of 50 points and the remaining 19 points really made Fang Linyan feel a strong sense of loss. This experience of being vulnerable was really quite uncomfortable.
Fortunately, at this time Fang Linyan’s blood pressure, breathing, and heartbeat all returned to calm, and there was no hostile person nearby, so he was out of the combat state by default.
In this non-combat state, the advantages of digitalization were reflected. Fang Linyan’s HP recovery rate had been enhanced, and it only took less than half an hour to recover all his HP. However, the crippled right hand couldn’t be recovered.
Then Fang Linyan found a surprise. The number of dog tags dropped after Candy died was 3!
Counting this up, Fang Linyan had 11 dog tags, which gave him more confidence next time he entered the bloody state. With a bonus of up to 220 HP, it was hard for the opponents to kill him.
Not only that, Fang Linyan thought of a more far-reaching thing. For the top 14 candidates, after being besieged in the bloody state, if they were still alive at this time, then they should be thinking about the pain they suffered! Therefore, after recovering, the thing they had to do was almost obvious!
That was killing! !
Before entering the bloody state which would expose themselves, they should search for the remaining contestants.
If they were being soft-hearted now, when they entered the bloody state, they would be besieged instead!
Thinking further:
In the previous sudden event: In the Lotto Area, someone of the top 14 seeded players must have been killed, and the dog tags they carried would be taken away by the rest. In other words, among the previous pursuers, someone was bound to a new member of the New Lotto Area.
Needless to say, the thoughts of these new members would definitely change accordingly.
In this case, the whole situation would become more chaotic. The originally fragile team relationship would inevitably be more difficult to maintain. In this case, the hearts of the people were unpredictable. It was impossible to predict what choice the contestants would make.
In fact, if it were not for the shielding function of the bloody map at this time, Fang Linyan had the idea of quitting the team and going solo because everyone around him could turn into a beast at any time, so it would be more secure to be a lone wolf.
After thinking, Fang Linyan opened the bloody key in his hand. The first one opened was dropped from Contestant 5942B, and Fang Linyan habitually chose the items.
As a result, out of the 3 items this time, there were 2 miscellaneous items. Both of them were local protective gear that Fang Linyan had bought before. The one that reduced -1 agility after being worn. He could only sell them directly.
But the last item made Fang Linyan a surprise. It turned out to be the healing item that he needed, Sophie Band-Aid.
There were 8 remaining uses. Using it against the wound can reduce the duration of bleeding (debuff state) by 80%, and it can restore 12 HP within 20 seconds. During this period, the user cannot perform strenuous exercises such as running, jumping, or attack. Otherwise, the recovery effect will be interrupted.
***
After getting this stuff, Fang Linyan had a bold idea about the blood key that Cindy dropped.
This woman’s skills belonged to the assassin type, and only those with high agility could use, so he could forget about this option.
The second thing was the 3 items, but the most expensive thing on her was nothing more than the dagger. Fang Linyan felt that it was blue equipment at best, and the chance of getting it was not high. Also, he already got healing items. It wasn’t that he couldn’t draw, but it didn’t make much sense.
On the contrary, Fang Linyan felt that he could take a gamble on obtaining 50% of the remaining potential points and common points of the deceased because he now found that there were a lot of points needed in the joint trials. So, it was time for him to earn some common points.
And Candy became a contractor in the joint trial, which meant that she had not yet had enough buffer time to become familiar with the identity of the contractor, so he could take a gamble on this.
“You choose to draw: Obtain 50% of the potential points and common points of the deceased before death.”
Looking at the system prompt that popped up, Fang Linyan was also sweating. He didn’t know if his bet was correct, but the answer was soon revealed,
“You got 578 common points.”
Seeing this prompt, Fang Linyan sighed depressed, knowing that he probably lost the bet. However, the next prompt gave him comfort,
“You gained 1 potential point.”
Fang Linyan was immediately surprised,
“Eh? This is not bad!!”
After getting the 1 potential point, he decisively used it on the spot. He originally wanted to add it to the turret, but a ruthless prompt popped up in an instant,
“The level of sub-skill cannot be higher than the class ability level. You must first increase Tier C Class Ability: {Technology Support} to LV3 or higher before you can continue to increase the level of the [Machine Gun Turret].”
Therefore, Fang Linyan could only sigh and added this potential point to Tier C Class Ability: {Technology Support}, promoting it to LV3.
Next, Fang Linyan bandaged the injury on his left hand, then he took out a bottle of water from the private space and drank it. Although he was not hungry at this time, he forced himself to eat a few pieces of dried meat. He released [Drone] and let it stay in a hidden place on the roof with the automatic warning function activated. Once a human-form creature appeared within 50 meters of it, it would start warning.
Then Fang Linyan closed his eyes and planned to take a nap. Of course, taking a nap in this situation was actually just a half-asleep, which was similar to restarting the computer, but it was still very helpful to boost the spirit.
TL: Can he go hunt contestants right now? With his skills and weapons?
