Xing Ye did not stop Di Kuang, but stood aside with Cao Qian and concentrated on observing Di Kuang's abilities.
Their plan today was to hold back until the conflict escalated, letting Team Di Kuang clash with the characters in the game world first, and then take action when they reached a critical point.
It is unwise to use the QR code at this time. Di Kuang's initial skills have been exposed once before, so he is not afraid of Xing Ye and uses this long-hand ability again.
As Cao Qian said, the abilities of the Fate-Defying Player were indeed more inclined towards physical skills.
One of Di Kuang's initial skills is that he can grow more arms. Xing Ye noticed that his newly grown arms became longer when he grabbed Zhang Feiming. Di Kuang seemed to have been trying to hide this ability, and it was really impossible to tell without careful observation.
The number of arms increases, and the new arms may become longer. The exact length is unclear, but it is definitely not a long-range attack. It should be a medium-to-short-range attack. Be careful of his sudden attacks, and your phone may be snatched away in close combat.
Di Kuang and Zhang Feiming only had a staggered time, and Xing Ye had already imagined several possible situations that might occur during the battle.
Taking the head, Di Kuang feigned ignorance and said, "This should be the head Liu Muqing is looking for. Should we go to the girls' dormitory? Your three-day deadline is up, you can take it and hand it in."
He actually found the human head in the gymnasium last night. Perhaps because he was worried that something might happen on the night of the new moon, he thought that he had to get the head from the boy to make it useful, so he put the head back, which is how Xing Ye discovered it.
Hmm? Xing Ye suddenly thought of something. He wanted to confirm whether there was a human head inside the basketball, but he couldn't do it without taking it apart. Zhang Feiming was quite skilled in manual labor. He could remove the head at night, run around, and rewrap it before dawn. Once a month, it wouldn't be too much trouble. But how did Di Kuang and the others put the head back into the basketball after discovering it?
There should be someone in their team who has the ability to repair items or rewind time. I hope it's the former. If it's the latter, it would be a bit scary.
Cao Qian: "I have already opened the window of the dormitory bathroom."
In fact, it was Aunt Zhang in the dormitory who helped open it, but they now needed to hide the fact that they knew Aunt Zhang, so Cao Qian lied and said it was her.
The six of them arrived at the girls' dormitory. Cao Qian led the charge, jumping straight up to the second floor before turning back to pull Xing Ye back. With the head in Di Kuang's hands, he didn't have to worry about running out of hands to get upstairs.
Xing Ye was not too worried about being attacked when going upstairs. The task line was still unclear. Di Kuang was a cautious person and would not turn against him until the last moment.
At twelve o'clock, several people stepped onto the thirteenth step and entered the different space.
This time, there was more blood on the third floor, already above the knees, flowing like a small river. Human heads floated back and forth on the river of blood, moving even faster.
"Let's stand by the stairs. There's too much blood here. If anything goes wrong, we still have room to escape." Xing Ye suggested, "The person who has the head should go to the corridor to contact Liu Muqing. Otherwise, it will be dangerous if the head goes berserk."
The head was an important prop in Di Kuang's eyes, and he would never give it to Xing Ye. However, he also felt that Xing Ye's words made sense, so he said to Wu Yu, "Give it back."
After all, the three people who took the task before were Wu Yu, Cao Qian and Xing Ye, so it should be one of them who returns the head.
Wu Yu's legs were shaking. "I only have 200 points and a life-saving QR code, and you want me to face the enemy alone?"
He was chosen to be the sacrifice if the mission failed, so Di Kuang would certainly not let him have too many resources, otherwise they would be wasted.
"I'll go with you," Di Kuang said. He needed to calm his teammates down. "Let's go together."
So Di Kuang and Wu Yu took the lead, while Guan Ling and Teacher Ding stood next to Cao Qian and Xing Ye.
Wu Yu has already shown his cowardice, and Teacher Ding... hehe, he is now trembling when he sees Cao Qian, for fear that this girl will tear down the stairs and hit him.
The fighting ability of these two people is average. The ones they really need to pay attention to are Guan Ling and Di Kuang. Now Guan Ling is looking at the head nervously.
Di Kuang handed the head to Wu Yu. The moment Wu Yu took the head, Guan Ling's attention was distracted a little and shifted to Wu Yu.
Xing Ye winked at Cao Qian, who quickly pressed the button on her phone and used the "jumping ping-pong balls" function. The entire third floor was suddenly filled with ping-pong balls. Cao Qian was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and took advantage of Guan Ling's distraction to kick him down the stairs.
Guan Ling rolled directly to the second floor without even touching his phone, and some of the table tennis players followed him down.
During this period of time, Xing Ye had used the Eye of Impression + the Pen of Redrawing to quickly draw a piano in 15 seconds, and controlled the piano to smash towards Guan Ling on the second floor.
Guan Ling was lying on the ground halfway up the second floor at this time. Seeing the piano falling from the sky, he could only roll hard. With the help of the ping-pong balls, he was directly sent to the stairs and rolled to the second floor.
"What are you doing?" Di Kuang yelled at Teacher Ding, "Stop them!"
Teacher Ding's initial skills had no attack power at all. After Cao Qian kicked Guan Ling down the stairs, she also kicked Teacher Ding's arm and broke it, making it impossible for him to use his mobile phone to click on the QR code.
The raid was completed within 30 seconds. Di Kuang and Wu Yu were surrounded by a river of blood deep in the corridor, holding the head in their hands, and there was no time for rescue.
When Xing Ye was drawing the piano QR code, everyone's attention was on Guan Ling who was rolling down the stairs. He hid behind Teacher Ding, who was selling his friend to seek honor, and waved the redrawing pen frantically, using Teacher Ding's body to block his movements. Everyone mistakenly thought that he was using the QR code ability.
Teacher Ding had seen Xing Ye's abilities, but did he dare to speak out? If he did, Xing Ye would directly tell Di Kuang about his initial skill of selling out his friends for fame. Even if Di Kuang didn't kill Xing Ye, he would first kill Teacher Ding, the unstable factor.
The original lineup was 2 vs 4, but in an instant, Guan Ling entered the second floor, Teacher Ding suffered a fracture and lost his combat effectiveness, the battle lineup became 2v2, and Wu Yu had no points and QR codes, so Cao Qian and Xing Ye only had to deal with Di Kuang, and the situation reversed.
"Guan Ling, if you're okay, come upstairs quickly." Di Kuang shouted.
Unexpectedly, Guan Ling on the second floor responded, "Hurry down and come down! We've been tricked by Bai Xu! I can't go up now!"
Cao Qian looked at her arm, which was covered in bruises.
Just as Guan Ling rolled down the stairs, Di Kuang suddenly stretched out his two hands, trying to grab Guan Ling back, but was blocked by Cao Qian with a kick and a punch. However, Cao Qian's strength was still injured by him. Di Kuang's arms had good combat effectiveness, and he still had a second initial skill that he had not used.
"Where's the head? Where's my head?" Liu Muqing, still dazed, glared at Wu Yu and Di Kuang fiercely, "Give me the head!"
"Are you sure you want to give it to her?" Xing Ye said calmly as he stood on the stairs. "If we really give it to Liu Muqing and let her be liberated while she's still dazed, we'll be done for today. Do you want to go downstairs and see what Bai Xu looks like now?"
Liu Mucheng jumped up and bit the mannequin's hair. Xing Ye held his phone, hesitating whether to use "Requiem".
No, you can't use it for now. The genuine "Requiem" can only be used when you finally deal with Bai Xu. Otherwise, if the pirated "Requiem" is not effective enough, you're doomed!
Di Kuang really wanted to slap Xing Ye to death, but Cao Qian's strength was indeed amazing. After the fight with Cao Qian just now, his arms were numb and could no longer be used.
He was afraid of Xing Ye and wanted to use the QR code, but just when he wanted to touch his phone, the "jumping ping pong ball" hit his wrist and knocked the phone into the river of blood.
While "Hurry Ping Pong" makes the enemy slide, it also has a chance to knock their phone off the target, slowing their QR code usage. This chance is negligible for players with favorable fate, but for players like Di Kuang who defy fate, it's a 100% chance of their phone being lost.
So, when Xing Ye was planning, he designed the two effects of the ping-pong ball to be applied to two different people. If he followed his fate, he would be forced downstairs, where Bai Xu would deal with him. If he went against his fate, his phone would be dropped, and everyone would compete with each other in their initial skills. Di Kuang's initial skills were mainly physical strength, so he might not be able to defeat Cao Qian.
After the phone fell, Di Kuang was temporarily unable to use the QR code. His eyes became fierce and he vowed to kill Xing Ye and Cao Qian.
"Go upstairs!"
Xing Ye stepped onto the stairs between the third and fourth floors to avoid the river of blood. At the same time, he picked up the electric baton, turned the current to the maximum, and inserted the electric baton into the river of blood!
As we all know, water can conduct electricity, and the human body is also a conductor. If the physical rules of this world are feasible, then electric batons can conduct electricity through blood rivers!
Xing Ye had come up with this idea as early as last night when he entered the third floor and saw more and more blood. He charged the electric baton to full capacity during the day.
Of course, even if it conducts electricity, it will lose a lot of electricity, which is not enough to stun the opponent, but it can paralyze the enemy for a short time, causing the brain to pause slightly, and temporarily unable to use skills and QR codes. Even half a second is enough.
Because in this half second, Cao Qian, who used her agility skills, cooperated with Xing Ye tacitly. At the moment of jumping up the building to avoid the river of blood, she took out her rifle while Di Kuang was paralyzed by the electric shock and fired two bullets in succession, one hitting Di Kuang's heart and the other hitting Wu Yu.
Wu Yu's cell phone was still in his hand and was not affected by the ping-pong ball, but as a discarded pawn, his combat awareness was really too poor. Di Kuang did not give him any chance to grow. He could not react at all. Just as he was about to click on the life-saving QR code, he and Di Kuang were electrocuted and their bodies became paralyzed.
The bullet hit Wu Yu's forehead. He was holding his cell phone, hugging the head, and his neck was still bitten by Liu Mucheng. He fell heavily into the river of blood.
At the same time, Cao Qian received a reminder that she had earned 100 points.
Seeing Wu Yu die like this, Teacher Ding, who had been standing by the stairs and watching, was so scared that he covered his broken arm and ran upstairs screaming. Only Di Kuang, Xing Ye and Cao Qian were on the third floor.
Cao Qian clearly shot Di Kuang in the heart, but the bullet did not enter his body. Di Kuang's body instantly turned bronze, a bit like the Eighteen Bronze Men of Shaolin Temple.
It should be a defensive ability like Iron Skin and Iron Bones, which can withstand physical damage. Di Kuang's initial skills are really good. His arms are increased and can be extended to attack. His strength is not inferior to Cao Qian's infinite strength. He also has an initial skill that is enough to defend against bullets, which is an offensive and defensive combination.
Moreover, he was able to use his initial skills immediately while being electrocuted, showing good combat awareness.
pity...
Xing Ye was not idle either. He was using one hand to shock others and the other to draw. It was the Eye of Impression + the Pen of Redrawing. Fifteen seconds later, a piano appeared above Di Kuang's head and fell down heavily.
Of course, the iron-skinned Di Kuang will not die, but he is not infinitely strong.
Xing Ye didn't stop at all and used his skills without any regret. In two and a half minutes, he drew ten pianos. Even if each one was only half the size of a normal piano, ordinary people could not withstand such pressure.
The main target of attack was still the arms. Including his own arms, Di Kuang had a total of eight. Two were injured by Cao Qian, and there were still six. He didn't know if ten pianos would be enough. Xing Ye gritted his teeth and drew ten more. The entire corridor was blocked. The human head Liu Mucheng jumped out of the range of the piano in horror, and even she was a little scared.
She saw Xing Ye and Cao Qian, and remembered that they seemed to have made an agreement with her to find someone's head. Her expression instantly became ferocious. At this time, Xing Ye said, "Lin Jingxue!"
Liu Muqing immediately quieted down.
In just a moment, Xing Ye and Cao Qian ran to the second floor. Xing Ye shouted as he ran, "If Di Kuang climbs out of the piano, please help me stop him for a while. I'm going to deal with Bai Xu and avenge you and Lin Jingxue!"
I don't know if Liu Mucheng understood it.
Di Kuang is definitely not dead. Xing Ye didn't hear the prompt sound for gaining points. He should still be pressed down by the pianos. I hope the pianos can hold on.
The battle on the third floor had no effect on the second floor at all. Even the river of blood seemed to be blocked in front of the stairs and could not flow to the second floor.
When Xing Ye and Cao Qian went downstairs, they saw Guan Ling screaming and crawling as he was attacked by Bai Xu. Bai Xu no longer looked like a human being. The skin on his face was rotten, his mouth was cracked, his teeth were like sharks, and his tongue was half a meter long. He looked a bit like the woman with the slit mouth in the legend.
Guan Ling is constantly using QR codes to protect himself, and his injuries will recover quickly. It seems that he should be the one to repair the basketball.
Xing Ye discovered that the two initial skills were essentially paired. Cao Qian's Infinite Strength and Agility were both offensive, while his Eye of Impression and Pen of Redraw complemented each other. Teacher Ding's Three Burrows and Selling Friends for Glory were used for escape, and Guan Ling should be similarly suited.
If one of his skills is healing or repairing, then the other can't be offensive. Only a few are as good at both offense and defense as Di Kuang. This is understandable. A man with such a strong desire for control, Di Kuang, wouldn't allow another aggressive player to join the team. He wants to occupy an absolute leadership position, so the rest of the team has supporting skills.
Guan Ling's skills are more about saving his life, which is more than enough to restrain Bai Xu.
Xing Ye glanced at him as he went downstairs, cheering him up in his heart. While Guan Ling was holding Bai Xu, he ran downstairs and entered the duty room.
Aunt Zhang was worried all night after hearing noises from the second and third floors. She was relieved when she saw Xing Ye and Cao Qian coming.
"What happened?" asked Aunt Zhang.
"Aunt Zhang," Xing Ye said, "Are you brave enough? Do you want to take a gamble?"
"What are you going to do?" asked Aunt Zhang.
"Bai Xu has gone berserk. We need to give this painting to Liu Mucheng and ask her to help us deal with Bai Xu. But I'm worried that we alone won't be enough to awaken Liu Mucheng's consciousness. We need you as well."
Xing Ye felt that existence was not accidental. If Aunt Zhang was no longer needed, then they could simply find the painting. There was no need for her to become the dormitory manager.
Aunt Zhang's strength must have been needed in the final battle, which is why she persisted here for two years.
For her daughter, a mother's strength is immense. Aunt Zhang was shaking, but she still held the landscape painting firmly and nodded vigorously: "Okay, I'll go upstairs with you."
Xing Ye on the first floor took a deep breath and said, "Once the landscape painting is taken out of this duty room, Bai Xu will definitely go berserk. Let's hold her back and have Aunt Zhang go upstairs and give the painting to Liu Muqing!"
Cao Qian had a broken foot and a broken arm, which was quite a loss. But she was so resilient that she didn't even cry out in pain despite the serious injuries, only making a simple "hmm".
The three of them walked out of the duty room, and suddenly a shrill scream came from the second floor. It was Bai Xu. She felt the presence of the landscape painting!
I saw a red shadow rushing down from the second floor like a whirlwind and heading straight for Aunt Zhang!
And at this moment, Xing Ye pressed the phone without hesitation and used the genuine version of "Requiem" for the first time!
Cao Qian stood in front of Aunt Zhang and grabbed Bai Xu's head with both hands. Xing Ye cooperated with her, picked up the electric baton, and hit Bai Xu's head hard.
With the blessing of "Requiem", Bai Xu's frenzied state weakened, but she was still very strong, and it was very difficult for both of them to deal with her.
Cao Qian and Xing Ye shouted to Aunt Zhang at the same time: "Run!"
Aunt Zhang rushed up the stairs holding a landscape painting!
