Just as the aircraft was about to crash onto the ground where several people were, it suddenly flew upward with a violent gust, swirling and leaving those people’s hair and clothes in a messy state.


Sun Ning patted the back of the driver’s seat in front of her, “Why did it stop?”

Bai Lixin: “…”

It seems that in the end, it was Song Yuantian who calmed down first.

With a helpless expression, Song Yuantian controlled the aircraft to land beside Hongyue, “They are using a prop, so I can’t hit them. Otherwise, I would have killed them long ago. We are already enemies, why would I leave them alive at this point?!”

Bai Lixin: “…”

‘So calming down was out of the question.’

Song Yuantian and Sun Ning’s eyes fell on Bai Lixin’s face.

Bai Lixin: “But my hidden identity has not been triggered yet. I am still not sure if it is the Rebel Forces or the Black Bronze Legion.”

Escape System: [There are only about ten days left until the end of the game. Your hidden identity has not been revealed yet, Master Bai Lixin. Could it be that you are so unlucky you don’t belong to either camp?]

Bai Lixin: […]

Official mockery, the most deadly.

Song Yuantian stopped the aircraft not far from Hongyue, then hurriedly got off and ran to Hongyue, “Sister Hongyue, are you injured anywhere?”

There was some blood splattered on Hongyue’s neck, but it wasn’t hers; it belonged to someone else.

Song Yuantian anxiously checked her up and down, and breathed a sigh of relief only after confirming that Hongyue was unharmed. But soon, his relief turned into tension again. He shielded Hongyue behind him and coldly faced the people opposite, “Little Overlord, what do you want?”

Sun Ning and Bai Lixin also followed down. Sun Ning endured for a long time before finally resisting the urge to go up and kill Little Overlord. She silently Bai Lixin to stand beside Song Yuantian.

There were a total of six people on the opposite side, three of whom Bai Lixin recognized.

The most familiar was Xuan Chishui, Little Overlord he had had conflicts with before. The other two he had also seen before were members of the Shentian Guild. Bai Lixin hadn’t seen the other three, but they seemed to be players too.

When Little Overlord saw Bai Lixin, his eyes turned red for a moment. If it weren’t for the person next to him pulling him back, it seemed like he would have rushed forward.

“We’re not here to fight with you.” The tall and refined man with gold-rimmed glasses pushed Little Overlord back and stepped forward. “You must have noticed that many people die in this game every day. With only a month left until the end of the game, only half of the players are still alive. If this continues, we’ll all die before we reach the last day.”

“We’ve found clues about the ‘Mysterious Object, but we can’t obtain it on our own, so let’s cooperate.”

Sun Ning: “Only crazy people would cooperate with you.”

Little Overlord: “You’re ungrateful.”

Sun Ning, who was usually calm, almost exploded in anger.

The man with gold-rimmed glasses just smiled and pushed up his glasses elegantly. “As long as we cooperate, I am ninety percent confident that all players can leave this copy safely within three days, reducing unnecessary casualties. Are you willing to let other players die just because of personal grudges?”

“Besides you, your guild members and friends should also have been pulled into this copy, right?”

“You are not afraid of death but do you want them to die with you?”

Hongyue raised an eyebrow and sneered, “Tsk tsk tsk, this handsome man with artificial beauty, are you trying to morally blackmail us? Your methods are too crude.”

The man with gold-rimmed glasses narrowed his eyes, and the harmless rabbit suddenly turned into a venomous snake.

“Insolence! Do you know who the man standing in front of you is?” Another person shouted, “He’s the vice president of the Shentian Guild, show some respect!”

Suddenly, there was a sharp, whistling sound in the air.

Little Overlord raised the knife in his hand into the air. There was a “clang” sound of collision, and a shining arrow pierced the ground where he stood.

“If you hadn’t said you were from the Shentian Guild, we might have let you go. Your Shentian Guild has caused the deaths of many in our guild, and you actually dare to use the name of the Shentian Guild to show off your power.” Several aircrafts were hovering in the sky, and one of them had its cabin door open. Li Cancan stood at the door with a bow and arrow. Six light arrows were slowly gathering at the bow, aiming at Little Overlord, “Don’t move, the next arrow is aimed at your heads.”

A metallic iron net fell from one of the aircrafts, landing on the heads of Little Overlord’s group, covering all six of them.

Zhou Guang’s voice came from the aircraft, “Capture successful, bring them back.”

Several aircrafts landed, and Zhou Guang, Lin Jue, and Li Cancan led a well-trained team down, skillfully tied up the six people, and took them onto the aircraft.

Sun Ning: “You guys came pretty quickly.”

Li Cancan: “We set off as soon as we received your signal, luckily, this place isn’t far from the Rebel Alliance.”

Lin Jue: “We just had to catch the turtle in an urn.”

Zhou Guang: “What’s the plan?”

Sun Ning: “I really want to kill them directly, but they just said they found clues about the ‘mysterious object’.”

Zhou Guang: “Then bring them back and interrogate them properly.”

Hongyue stood in front of the aircraft cabin door and shouted at them, “What are you waiting for? Hurry up and come aboard.”

The grand procession moved to the aircraft. Song Yuantian and Bai Lixin, who were left at the back of the huge crowd, looked at each other.

Song Yuantian: “You’re not good at being guild president.”

“I could say the same to you.” Bai Lixin said, “I’m just a mascot. As for the Sand Sea Guild, Hongyue seems more like the guild president than you.”

Song Yuantian said proudly, “That’s right, my wife is amazing. She’s worried about me managing the guild, so she helps me share the burden. You can just envy me.”

Bai Lixin: “…”

“Hey, what are you two doing? Hurry up and come aboard.” Hongyue impatiently yelled at the two.

The silver-haired man who had just been showing off his wife instantly showed a doting expression, “Coming.”

S419M: [Lord Host, when we get out of here, you must show Dijia to Song Yuantian and let him see what a real “doting husband” is.]

Bai Lixin: […]

Little Overlord’s group that had just been showing off their power just now suddenly changed roles and were bundled into a ball and huddled in the aircraft.

Sun Ning kicked Little Overlord’s shoulder, knocking him to the ground.

“This kick is for my brother!” Sun Ning squatted down, grabbed Little Overlord’s collar, and lifted him up from the ground, slapping him several times left and right. “If it weren’t for you still being useful, I would have killed you now to avenge my brother.”

“What revenge are you talking about?” Little Overlord’s face was red, but he was still full of arrogance. “Your own brother wasn’t capable enough to survive the copy. Are you blaming me?”

Sun Ning was furious. She drew her weapon, and aimed it at Little Overlord’s neck.

Bai Lixin gently raised his hand and stopped Sun Ning.

Sun Ning: “What?”

Bai Lixin: “He’s deliberately provoking you. You should be able to see that.”

Sun Ning glared at Little Overlord and reluctantly put away her weapon.

She was usually calm, except when it came to her brother, with whom she had spent many years supporting each other.

Bai Lixin looked down at the six people. “What are the clues you just mentioned?”

The man with gold-rimmed glasses: “If we tell you, will you let us go?”

The eyes hidden under the lenses revealed a shrewdness. Bai Lixin looked at the six people in a circle and smiled. “Aren’t you deliberately exposing yourselves just to pass on information to us? Hurry up and tell us. We don’t have the leisure to watch you act.”

The man with gold-rimmed glasses narrowed his eyes, his eyes suddenly turning cold. “Fine, I’ll tell you.”

“Our hidden identity is with the Black Bronze Legion. Recently, the Black Bronze Legion intercepted a signal that contained the location of the leader of the Rebel Alliance.”

“Although our hidden identities are hostile, we are all players after all. When one flourishes, all flourish, when one suffers, all suffer. Only by obtaining the mysterious object to quell this turmoil can we leave the copy.”

“I want to cooperate with you to find the leader of the Rebel Alliance. Currently, 60% of the players still maintain their ‘civilian’ neutral identity, with only 40% acknowledging their hidden identities. Among the hidden identities, the Black Bronze Legion accounts for only 15%, while the remaining 25% are all in the Rebel Alliance camp. You provide the manpower, we provide the information. It’s a win-win situation for both of us.”

Sun Ning: “Something’s not right. You can’t be so kind as to invite us to complete the task together. You must be hiding something.”

The man with gold-rimmed glasses: “No, that’s all there is.”

Sun Ning snorted, clearly not believing him.

Little Overlord acted as a troublemaker as usual and chimed in, “Oh, it doesn’t matter if you tell them. If you don’t want to talk, let me do the talking.”

The man with gold-rimmed glasses gave Little Overlord a sideways glance, “Fine, I’ll tell.”

“In fact, after obtaining the location of the leader of the Rebel Alliance, the Black Bronze Legion sent elite forces there to search for the leader of the Rebel Alliance. However, all three teams they sent were wiped out.”

“The Black Bronze Legion has the most advanced weapons and equipment. If they couldn’t make it out alive, it’s very dangerous for us to go there.”

Zhou Guang: “So you want us to be the suicide squad? You’ve really planned it out well.”

The man with gold-rimmed glasses smiled, “Regardless of our plan, do you still have a choice now? To complete the task, you need to find the leader of the Rebel Alliance. Even if it’s dangerous, you have to go, don’t you?”

Bai Lixin: “Where is the leader of the Rebel Alliance located?”

The man with gold-rimmed glasses: “I’ll tell you where he is as long as you promise to let us leave.”

Sun Ning: “After finally catching you, how could we let you go so easily? Dream on.”

The man with gold-rimmed glasses: “Then don’t expect to know where the leader of the Rebel Alliance is.”

As the two confronted each other, Little Overlord intervened again, unimpressed, “Just tell them. Isn’t it better than watching them walk into death? Latitude and longitude coordinates 324.2345, 54.5366, -12.9532, that’s the location. If you’re capable, go there.”

The man with gold-rimmed glasses glared at Little Overlord fiercely, “Are you crazy? Are you really from the Shentian Guild? You’re turning against us? If you reveal our bargaining chip, how are we supposed to get out?”

Little Overlord’s eyes suddenly turned cold, “Shiying, know your place. Even your guild president doesn’t dare to speak to me like that.”

The man with gold-rimmed glasses fell silent.

Lin Jue: “It’s really interesting, the information spilled out like beans even before using extreme methods. Is it true or false? Could it be a trap?”

The man with gold-rimmed glasses frowned, “Indeed, it’s a trap. Don’t go.”

Hongyue: “Whether it’s true or false, just bring them all back first and interrogate them separately. Someone will eventually tell the truth.”

Song Yuantian: “Sister Hongyue is right. You’re really smart. Bring them back first, there are ways to make them talk.”

So, Little Overlord and his group were taken back to the Rebel Alliance and locked up separately.

After two days of interrogation, they finally confirmed that the coordinates given by Little Overlord were correct.

They decided to go in search of the crucial leader of the Rebel Alliance.

On the day of departure, the Rebel Alliance gathered its forces. There was a huge movement, and the movement was even heard in the prisons.

As night fell and the outside gradually quieted down, a different kind of activity could be heard from the prison.

The sound of metal hitting metal quietly rang out as several prison doors opened silently, and the Little Overlord’s group that should have been locked inside slipped out.

They found a secluded place to hide, and one of them exclaimed, “Vice President, your strategy is impeccable. You easily infiltrated the Rebel Alliance and even tricked Song Yuantian and the others into leaving.”

Another person chimed in with flattery, “Shiying, the ‘wise as a demon,’ he is indeed worthy of his reputation.”

Little Overlord interjected impatiently, “Enough, save the praise for after the task is completed. It’s disgusting to flatter now. Shiying, where are the coordinates for the leader of the Rebel Alliance?”

The man with gold-rimmed glasses looked displeased but still opened the map in his mind, “Follow me. It’s underground, through a secret passage.”

The six of them walked along the dark passage, occasionally encountering a few people.

One player couldn’t help but sigh, “There are so few people. It seems like everyone has gone out in full force. Those fools, when they arrive there and find out it’s an ambush by the Black Bronze Legion, it’ll be too late for regrets.”

Another player added, “It’s their own fault for being stupid. They didn’t even consider who they were up against.”

The man with gold-rimmed glasses raised his chin slightly, “Shh, keep quiet. Now is not the time to relax. Let’s bring the leader of the Rebel Alliance back first, and then we can celebrate.”

The player who was good at flattery quickly agreed, “That’s right, Vice President is right. But these fools probably never imagined that they’ve been searching for the leader of the Rebel Alliance all along, yet he has been here in this Rebel Alliance.”

As they spoke, the man with gold-rimmed glasses had already found a hidden secret room, and the six of them, like agile rabbits, slipped in through the entrance.

Underneath the entrance, there was another world, with a labyrinth of intersecting passages.

Little Overlord lightly tapped the wall and discovered that it was hollow inside, and there seemed to be something hidden in the walls.

He cut open the wall with his knife and found a dense network of cables inside.

“These passages are like a maze.” One person whispered, “Could all these walls be filled with wires?”

Little Overlord: “Hurry up, Shiying.”

The man with gold-rimmed glasses seemed to dislike Little Overlord’s commanding tone, but still continued to lead the way towards their destination according to the map.

They hadn’t walked far when suddenly there was a sound of breaking air behind them.

Little Overlord quickly turned around, but it was too late.

A metallic net made of unknown material enveloped them all, simultaneously releasing a powerful high-voltage electric shock.

In that moment of being electrocuted, all six of them lost their fighting capabilities, collapsing weakly to the ground.

In their confusion, they heard the rustling footsteps.

In a daze, Little Overlord saw a person he wanted nothing more than to tear apart and drink his blood.

He gritted his teeth, “Bai! Li! Xin!”
