Chapter 119: Love Welfare Institute (1/2)

Bai Liu was distracted for a few seconds after little Mu Ke hung up.

It seemed that these children didn’t like him very much… it seemed he hadn’t been liked by children since childhood.

Outside the door, there was the sudden rush of high-heeled shoes and the sound of the nurses’ heels against the ground. The nurses were walking toward the elevator. It was obvious that something had happened that needed them to gather.

Bai Liu’s eyes lowered. “A patient has woken up.”

“It can’t be such a coincidence…” Mu Ke’s face stiffened as he turned to Bai Liu. “It can’t be Miao Feichi’s group that woke up?”

The 2nd floor, ICU, 7:40 a.m.

Miao Gaojiang was covered with red and black burns. He coughed as he was helped up by the nurse. He turned to Miao Feichi who was unconscious in the other bed and gritted his teeth. Even if he blocked most of the attacks for Miao Feichi, his weak defense son must’ve lost more health than him.

In addition, Miao Gaojiang’s loss of health wasn’t low.

Miao Gaojiang moved his body and leaned against the pillow with difficulty. Then he gazed gloomily at his health panel.

[System notification: Player Miao Gaojiang’s health value is 23.]

Bai Liu’s wave of attacks directly took away over half his health. Even in the league games, Miao Gaojiang had rarely suffered such a big injury due to his high defense.

He gulped down the physical strength recovery agent and mental bleach with a splitting headache and the expression on his face was dark. He had only 23 health left. Miao Feichi’s health must be lower than his.

This made Miao Gaojiang finally look up.

Bai Liu was a madman. He was completely desperate to decrease their health. He tried to earn every drop of blood.

It was clear that Bai Liu had given up on the path of the investors and put all his chips on the children. Now it was meaningless to kill Bai Liu and consume their health. The urgent task was to get enough blood to clear the game and kill Bai Liu’s children.

After clearing up his thoughts, Miao Gaojiang bought several protective bandages to cover his still bleeding wounds. He got up and bandaged Miao Feichi before gently shaking Miao Feichi awake. Miao Feichi woke up with a grimace. He held the railing in a dizzy manner as he was helped up by a nurse and Miao Gaojiang.

Miao Feichi had been stuffed with a tube of mental bleach and physical strength recovery agent by his father when unconscious. After waking up, the large amount of liquid intake made Miao Feichi retch a few times. Then he wiped his mouth and woke up.

“Feichi, what is your health?” Miao Gaojiang asked with a frown when he saw that Miao Feichi had woken up.

Miao Feichi opened his attributes panel. He couldn’t hold back a curse word and his face darkened. “Fuck, I only have 11 points left.”

“…It is a bit too low.” Miao Gaojiang frowned. “I thought that if your health was high enough to kill Bai Liu, we would go through the children’s welfare home. However, if you lose two health points then your health will fall below 10. This is already the death prediction value.”

Players who dropped to this threshold would soon be taken away from the field, so falling to it was known to the audience as predicting death. Thus, the death threshold notice issued by the system was also called the death prediction.

Miao Feichi’s death threshold was generally 9 points while Miao Gaojiang’s was 1 point. It was because he had more defense and it wasn’t easy for him to be killed in one wave of attacks.

Miao Feichi touched the bloody wound on his face and sucked in a breath of cold air. He felt pain and anger. “Fuck the death prediction. Bai Liu is a non-league player with a F-grade panel. My death threshold is generally for high level players in the league. How does he deserve to be mentioned with me?”

“He hasn’t entered the league yet. His panel is only F-grade but he can push your health near the threshold and decrease my health by half.” Miao Gaojiang calmly interrupted Miao Feichi’s incessant abuse. “Don’t you think he is even more terrible?”

Miao Feichi’s expression was stunned.

Miao Gaojiang took a deep breath. “We’ve found the wrong promotion target for the flag sacrifice. Click on the system panel to take a look. We have to give up on using Bai Liu as a flag sacrifice and quickly pass the instance, or both of us will fail this game.”

Miao Feichi opened the system panel with a frown and he saw a bright red notice on his panel.

[System warm reminder: Tomorrow is Thursday, the day of serious illness. Investor players who haven’t been cured by a blood ganoderma lucidum will receive a ‘serious illness’ buff after midnight. The serious illness buff will cause the player’s blood to slowly drop. Players, please speed up the instance clearance.]

Miao Gaojiang looked solemn. “This ‘serious illness’ is a debuff that forcibly weakens our health. According to the song, we will die of illness on Friday. This means the debuff is likely to consume all our health on Friday. Currently, health is very valuable to us but for Bai Liu, who has given up the investor clearance route, health doesn’t matter to them and can be wasted at will.”

Miao Gaojiang leaned forward. He half crouched down and stared at Miao Feichi who was still stunned. “It is because they don’t expect to take the investor clearance route. Do you understand, Feichi? All of them, including Liu Huai, chose to sacrifice themselves to protect their children.”

“Meanwhile, we chose ourselves. It doesn’t matter if we kill them because their hopes and desires are on their other selves.”

HIs eyes gradually became dark. “Killing those children and getting their blood to survive is the first thing we need to do to clear the instance. Do you understand? Don’t trouble Bai Liu any longer. Do business first.”

Miao Feichi reluctantly gritted his teeth and finally nodded.

Miao Gaojiang sighed with relief. Miao Feichi was very impulsive and irritable but fortunately, he still listened to Miao Gaojiang’s words related to their survival. This was the reason why he couldn’t help doting on Miao Feichi and even helped him commit evil. Miao Feichi was really a good child who listened to his father’s words.

He just didn’t listen to his mother very much.

However, he really listened to his father. He saw his father’s growing pain due to his seriously ill mother, he saw his father want to kill the woman who dragged down their whole family and he saw his father want to end this life and find better women, but he was afraid his mother would scream that he couldn’t get her inheritance and house. Therefore, little Miao Feichi stood up and became his father’s hero. He ended this miserable life for his father.

“We are going to live this time as well. You know, Feichi?” Miao Gaojiang spoke softly while touching the face of Miao Feichi leaning against him. Miao Gaojiang’s mental value had fallen below 20 and he forced it back above this line, making Miao Gaojiang’s state somewhat abnormal. This was the after-effects of his mental value decline.

Miao Gaojiang self-regulated his breathing. He inhaled and exhaled deeply. Under the seemingly calm surface, there was fear, tyranny, madness and a distorted neuroticism. “We can overcome things like your mother. There is nothing we can’t overcome.”
