Chapter 47 (1/2)

“There is one minute left until the next stop, Hexagon Avenue. Passengers who are getting off, please prepare for the next stop.” The female voice was sweet and clear. “Passengers getting off the train, please don’t block the passengers getting on the train and jam the door. First let them get on and then get off—”

Mu Sicheng’s face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. He waved his hand and glanced at Bai Liu who was sitting in the carriage with Du Sanying. “Bai Liu, what if you can’t transfer the aggro? If the aggro of these monsters is locked on me then I will easily die.”

“Don’t you have my Merfolk Amulet?” Bai Liu wondered. “You can just rely on this item to run away once. We are just trying it out. If it doesn’t work, we can talk again.”

“Did you fucking let me steal this item from you to be used here? What damn teleporting?!” Mu Sicheng exploded. “The monster’s aggro will be locked on me from beginning to end. As long as it sees me, it will chase.”

Du Sanying felt complicated as he looked at Bai Liu. “Bai Liu, are the broken lenses really on the passengers? Then this game is too…” It was a bit difficult.

“If the broken lenses are really on the passengers—” Mu Sicheng changed to an acceleration wristband and sneered while kneading his wrist. “Then the difficulty of this game is estimated to not be low among the level 2 games. Bai Liu, you really have a good eye when picking games.”

“I should be sure to transfer the aggro.” Bai Liu told him. “I have a very strong attack weapon but it is a bit physically demanding. Oh yes, speaking of this—”

Bai Liu seemed to suddenly remember something. He took out 1,000 points from his wallet and handed it to Du Sanying. “I will have to keep buying physical supplements later and it is estimated that the price of the physical supplements on my side will increase. Hold some points for me. If the price doesn’t increase for you then you can buy it for me.”

“Oh oh oh.” Du Sanying was paying attention outside the carriage door and was emotionally nervous because they were about to start fighting. He was confused when Bai Liu interrupted and instinctively accepted the points Bai Liu gave him. “I just have to help buy physical supplements for you? Okay.”

Buying large quantities of the same items would indeed increase their price in the player’s store. The moment Du Sanying took the points, Bai Liu suddenly smiled and patted Du Sanying on the shoulder. “During this game, we must cooperate well. You should help me, Du Sanying.”

Du Sanying held the 1,000 points given by Bai Liu and nodded in a daze. “Yes, okay.”

[System tip: Player Bai Liu has used 1,000 points in exchange for player Du Sanying buying physical supplements and a cooperative relationship. If player Bai Liu needs help, player Du Sanying should provide help in time.]

“The train has arrived at the station—”

Mu Sicheng looked at the burned corpses, or passengers, waiting outside the carriage doors and snorted with impatience, pressing down the monkey headphones on his head. Mu Sicheng’s entire face changed to look like a monkey. There was a dazzling red light in his eyes, fangs emerged from his lips and his hands became slender black monkey paws with extremely sharp nails. On the back of his neck, pale yellow fur could be seen. A black and white tail also stuck out of his pants and curled into a question mark shape.

[System tip: Player Mu Sicheng has used the personal skill ‘Thief’s Full Armor’—]

[System tip: Player Mu Sicheng has entered the personal skill status change ‘Monster Book: Capuchin Monkey Tamed by a Thief’.]

Bai Liu stood back on the car. His ankles were tied with a safety belt to the go-kart small car to prevent him from being thrown off.

He slowly drew the snow white bone whip from his waist and shook his wrist lightly to adapt to it. He stared intently at Mu Sicheng. Bai Liu had always been very focused when doing things. This type of concentration could reach an unimaginable point when it was necessary to concentrate.

Once Bai Liu started to stare at Mu Sicheng, Du Sanying could barely hear his breathing. Bai Liu was immersed in a state of motionlessness similar to an object.

The idiom ‘to concentrate one’s attention’ wasn’t sufficient to describe Bai Liu’s focus. Du Sanying stared at the slowly contracting pupils and Bai Liu who hadn’t blinked for a minute. For a moment, Du Sanying felt that it wasn’t a human being standing on his small car.

It was a precision weapon that was calibrating the target.

The carriage door opened slowly. Hot wind and black burning corpses with teeth and clues rushed into the train. Mu Sicheng hung one hand and one foot on the handhold loops and watched the corpses rushing toward him. He might be maintaining a surface calmness but the rapid rise in temperature caused sweat to slide down Mu Sicheng’s temples.

The high temperature quickly distorted everyone’s sight and even the door frame melted under the touch of the entering passengers. Mu Sicheng took a deep breath and slowly moved his trembling monkey paws.

Looking at these passengers who were burned by flames and couldn’t escape, an unstoppable fear attacked Mu Sicheng. What if Bai Liu’s speculation was wrong and these monsters didn’t have the lenses? What if Bai Liu was unable to transfer the aggro at all and just wanted to use him to test some ideas?
