Chapter 111 Bargaining Chips

Samodiel understood that since Feng Bujue could say something like "unleash all your power," he no longer needed to hide his strength.

And so… before the words even faded, the demonic energy surged again.

In an instant, a tangible "darkness" spread out from Samodiel, instantly obscuring Brother Jue's vision.

And at that moment, the entire city… was plunged into darkness.

"Hmm… it's even a bit weaker than I estimated." Feng Bujue stood in the darkness, looking at Samodiel, and said with a slightly disappointed tone, "It seems… I can handle this without transforming." As he spoke, he put the [Chuck Norris's Shaving Razor], which he had already taken out of his bag, back in.

"Hmph… you can even see through this 'Ultimate Darkness'?" Samodiel's voice quickly rang out, "It seems you are indeed an existence of extremely high standing."

"I told you, much higher than you." Feng Bujue replied calmly, and at the same time, the black data streams in his eyes continued to flicker, "So high that I'm too lazy to deal with you personally."

"Oh?" Samodiel seemed to hear something in his words, "Are you perhaps going to 'summon' something to fight me?"

As a world-class script Boss, Samodiel had seen no shortage of players, or rather, "travelers from other worlds," so he naturally knew that these people had the ability to "summon."

"You guessed right." Feng Bujue immediately replied, and casually took out the [Blood Corpse God's Magatama], activating the item's effect.

But see… in the Ultimate Darkness, a red glow suddenly appeared.

The eerie halo that rose from the magatama actually broke the heavy shadows, creating a spherical light array with a diameter of three meters, and only when the Blood Corpse God fully appeared did the surroundings return to darkness.

"Let me see… what is it this time?" After the Blood Corpse God descended, he showed no discomfort to the darkness, "Oh… seems to be a satyr." He also accurately located Samodiel in the darkness, and stared at the latter with a predatory gaze, "I've seen some before, but this one seems particularly delicious…"

"You… what are you…" On the other side, Samodiel's expression changed to one of extreme fear the moment the Blood Corpse God appeared, "How could an existence like you…"

"…how could an existence like me obey that kid's orders?" The Blood Corpse God took over his words, and pointed at Brother Jue, sneering, "Heh… don't get me wrong, he and I are just in a mutually beneficial relationship." He paused, and then looked at Samodiel, "And you and I… are in a relationship of diner and food."

As he said this, the Blood Corpse God had quietly activated his [Fear Projection] ability… and directly at 80%.

In less than two seconds, Samodiel let out a muffled groan, and knelt on one knee after staggering. At the same moment, the darkness in the city also quickly receded. It was just that… the city of Nuka had now lost the cover of the "fog," revealing its original appearance.

"Ugh… this…" Samodiel never expected that Feng Bujue's summon would actually be a terrifying demon king no less than the Four Pillar Gods, so it seemed… Feng Bujue's strength was truly unfathomable.

"Then… I won't be polite." Seeing that Samodiel seemed to have no strength to resist, the Blood Corpse God was immediately ready to go forward and start eating.

"Hold on." Unexpectedly, Feng Bujue stopped him.

"Hmm?" The Blood Corpse God looked suspicious, "What do you want?"

Brother Jue didn't answer him, but turned to Samodiel and said, "Samodiel, I can spare you from death…"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Blood Corpse God interjected, "Hey… it's already at my mouth…" His expression at this moment was like a hungry ghost sitting at a table, with the dish already brought to his face, but then being taken away.

But Feng Bujue ignored him, just glared at him, and continued to say to Samodiel, "I will provide you with a 'choice'… just as 'the creator of this world' hoped." He raised his head and said, "'Choice' is the core concept of this 'second edition' Thriller Paradise. Although this makes it look less perfect than its predecessor, it makes it more acceptable. So… even though I already know the result, and know that the result is inevitable, I will still give you the power to choose."

"Then can you also let me choose, like… want to eat? Or want to eat? Or want to eat?" The Blood Corpse God interjected again.

Brother Jue ignored him again, and then said to Samodiel, "So… do you choose to be eaten here, or…"

"I understand!" Samodiel replied before Brother Jue could finish speaking, "Whatever you want to know, I'll tell you everything!"

Obviously, Brother Jue and the Blood Corpse God's "one sings the red face, one sings the white face" act created tremendous psychological pressure on the other party.

However, after Samodiel quickly made his choice, Feng Bujue continued in a cold tone, "No, that's not enough."

Samodiel's heart trembled when he heard this.

"Before I called the Blood Corpse God, I gave you a chance, but… as I expected, we couldn't reach a consensus with me." Feng Bujue sighed, "Alas… only when despair truly descends will you compromise. That's the problem with you… or rather, 'existences of your level'."

"Then what do you want me to do now…" At this point, Samodiel's focus was no longer on "how to choose," but on "how to obey."

"Heh… what I want you to do… can't be said in a few words." As Feng Bujue spoke, he put his hands in his pockets and slowly walked past Samodiel.

A few seconds later, he leisurely sat on the throne that originally belonged to Samodiel, crossed his legs, and said, "Let me tell you one by one…"

…………

One hundred and ten minutes after the start of the script, somewhere in the west of the city.

"Huff… is this the place…" Looking at a huge rock carved with a smiley face in the distance, Alkaline Man stopped and gasped.

"If it's not here…" At this time, Huang Da Hammer's face was in a state that could turn into a zombie at any time, "I think the other party is probably just playing with us."

"Yeah… with our current physical condition, I'm afraid we won't be able to reach the 'next' location." Qi Doushi added.

"Damn it, I feel like that guy is messing with us…" Xuan Ling Wangzhe said with resentment, "Judging from the degree of deterioration of this disease, the virus won't even take three hours to take effect!"

"No…" Only Alkaline Man maintained a calm attitude, "At least on the point of time… he didn't lie." He walked staggeringly at the front, and continued without looking back, "According to common sense, the time for the virus to take effect should be three hours. However… this time is probably the theoretical data obtained in the laboratory; that is, 'obtained under the condition that the infected person remains relatively still in a normal temperature environment'." He licked his dry lips, "And the four of us… have been moving around since we were infected with the virus…"

"Understood…" Xuan Ling Wangzhe replied, "Factors such as temperature, body temperature, and metabolic rate have accelerated the rhythm of the attack."

"That's right." Alkaline Man nodded, "That's why… the four of us were infected almost at the same time, but our physical signs have a certain degree of difference at this moment."

As the four were talking, they had reached the side of the giant rock.

"In any case… let's take a look at this first…" Alkaline Man approached to observe, and saw a line of words under the smiley face engraving.

[The antidote is hidden under the stone.]

"Doushi." After reading the writing, Alkaline Man immediately turned back to Qi Doushi, "No problem, right?"

At this time, the three teammates behind him also saw the line of words clearly.

"A piece of cake." For Qi Doushi, even with the [Disease] state, pushing a stone of this size was not difficult. With that said, he took two steps forward, raised his arms and pressed them against the giant rock.

After brewing for two seconds, he took a deep breath, and then shouted in a deep voice, bending his knees and exerting force.

The development of the matter went unexpectedly smoothly, and the stone was much lighter than Qi Doushi had imagined, and it basically fell over with a push.

With a loud bang, the stone lay horizontally on the ground. And in the soil below it, there was indeed a small pit, with a metal box embedded in the pit.

"I'll take care of things here…" Alkaline Man greeted his teammates, and then walked forward, cautiously approaching the box.

As a result… nothing unusual happened when pushing the stone or taking out the box. It seemed… if there was really any trap, it must be inside the box.

"The worst case is… not only is there no antidote inside, but there is also some kind of explosive that will explode as soon as it is opened." After taking out the box, Alkaline Man said to his teammates, "You guys should go a little further, and after I open it…"

"No need." Huang Da Hammer interrupted at this time, "If there is no antidote inside, then we are going to be finished anyway, the only difference is being blown to death or dying from the poison."

After hearing this, Alkaline Man thought for a few seconds, and he had to agree… what he said made sense.

"Okay… then I'll open it." So, he picked up the box with the mentality of treating a dead horse as a living one.

The next second, under the scorching gaze of the four members of the Golden Battle Hammer team, the box was opened.

As Alkaline Man just opened a crack, a burst of white light erupted from the box… at that moment, the four people thought in unison: "It's over, it really is an explosive trap."

However, they were all mistaken…

The metal box that Feng Bujue had placed indeed contained no antidote, but no explosives either. What was in the box… was just a magic circle, a teleportation magic circle.

When the burst of white light dissipated, Huang Da Hammer, Alkaline Man, Qi Doushi, and Xuan Ling Wangzhe were already in a wide hall.

Then, a tall creature with two wings on its back and an obvious aura of magic entered their vision.

"Are these the ones?" Samodiel stood in front of a huge magic circle with a radius of five meters, looking down at the four players in front of him with a condescending gaze.

"Ah… that's right." Feng Bujue's voice then rang out.

The four members of the Golden Battle Hammer team knew who the speaker was when they heard the voice, and they all turned their heads to look in the direction of the sound. They saw… that man with a blurred appearance (when the privacy protection function is turned on, the player's face and voice will be blurred, but certain characteristics will still be retained to prevent the other party from being unable to distinguish; as for clothing, in the eyes of the opponent, it is the appearance of the novice suit), was actually sitting on a throne at this moment.

This guy was holding his cheek with one hand, crossing his legs, and the other hand was actually holding a goblet filled with red liquid.

"Hmm… you guys are later than I expected." Feng Bujue shook his glass, looked at the dumbfounded four, and said in a lazy tone, "I guess you were delayed by the monsters…"

Speaking of this, he raised his glass, took a sip of the liquid in the glass, and then said, "Ah… it's really freaking disgusting…" He shook his head and said, "Sorry, I wanted to taste this thing in front of you to act like a [BEEP--], but this… is so disgusting that I can't give it a positive evaluation."

"This is my treasured Wizard's Blood…" Samodiel turned his head back and said in a complaining tone, "If you don't like it, just leave it there and don't touch it."

Feng Bujue ignored him, but continued to say to the members of the Golden Battle Hammer team, "As you can see, this brother Samodiel, who has a very intimidating appearance, a huge difference in taste from us, is stingy, and only has height but looks far less handsome than me…" He paused for half a second, and added, "AkA (also_known_as), script Boss…" He then continued, "…is now in cahoots with me."

As Brother Jue spoke, he put down his glass and stood up from the throne: "So… your lives are useless here." He stepped forward and shrugged, "However, I promised in advance to give you antitoxin serum, a deal is a deal…"

Then, he really took out the serum from his bag and handed it to Huang Da Hammer, who looked horrified.

In this process, Feng Bujue always maintained an almost undefended state. And this calmness… made the four members of the opposing team shudder.

You must know that, in the current situation, the four members of the Golden Battle Hammer team can completely launch a four-on-one close-range raid directly on Feng Bujue after taking the antidote, or even the moment they receive the antidote. Once the raid is successful, they are equal to killing a super-strong enemy team member for nothing, and successfully removing their own debuff; at that time, they can ignore the script Boss, escape from this place, and continue this game with a numerical advantage.

And… even Huang Da Hammer can think of the above assumptions, it can be said that everyone present knows this very well.

However, Feng Bujue was still nonchalant and went his own way… This ease and composure, on the contrary, made the four people in front of him suspicious and dared not act rashly.
