87. Beyond Calculation!

Yimo glanced at Qin Muse and couldn't help but ask, "Why are you curious about this?"

Although Yimo had teased Qin Muse countless times before, Yimo didn't actually believe that Qin Muse liked her.

It's somewhat unexpected and puzzling that they're suddenly concerned about me and asking this question.

Qin Muse: "Stop being silly, just tell me."

Yimo: "Give me a reason."

Qin Muse: "I'll tell you after I finish."

Yimo: "Um... my girlfriend..."

Qin Muse frowned, not even looking at Yimo: "I checked your background, and I didn't find any information about you having a girlfriend."

"A new scam?"

Yimo: "Ah... in your memory, is there not a single bit of truth besides lies?"

We met during Death Game.

"The situation is somewhat unusual..."

Qin Muse: "No, it's not that. When you lie to girls, I feel like you're really sincere. Even though it's a lie, you say it more truthfully than the truth itself."

Yimo: "Oh, actually I was just lying to you."

Qin Muse: "Liar!"

Yimo: "So, why are you asking me this?"

Qin Muse turned to look at Yimo and said calmly, "Ask her for Qian Baitao."

"If you don't have a girlfriend and genuinely like Qian Baitao, I might consider sparing your life."

Yimo: "You two have a really good relationship."

Qin Muse continued looking through the scope and said calmly, "Not good, I can't handle her."

Upon Yimo laughed, "I can understand, after all, I couldn't handle it either."

Qin Muse: "If you can't handle it, why are you hooking up with Qian Baitao? You have a girlfriend but didn't tell her."

Yimo: "I didn't have a girlfriend when I met her."

"I've hinted at it many times before, but you should know her personality; it just didn't work."

"Now..."

"I'm not sure what the consequences would be if I told her, so I can only try to avoid it and hope she'll give up on her own."

"There's absolutely no hooking as you described!"

What would be the consequences of telling Qian Baitao?

Qian Baitao has turned evil and wants to kill either herself or Tong Muxue.

Qian Baitao's mentality collapsed, affecting her performance in the Death Game, and she might get Game easily.

Of course, it's also possible that nothing will happen.

However, given the potential for serious consequences, it's best not to try.

Qin Muse: "I understand."

"You really are a big liar who specializes in deceiving girls, so you should be killed!"

"Yes, killing him will solve everything."

Yimo didn't bother to argue. "Whatever you say, then it is."

After three minutes of silence, Qin Muse spoke first, "Qian Baitao is cheerful and lively, beautiful, and has a great figure. Why didn't you choose her back then?"

"To be honest, I've never met a girl more outstanding than her."

Yimo: "Death Game Player live hand to mouth, how can they have the mood or time to talk about feelings?"

"And she's a little too dazzling for me..."

"I'm a total homebody, so subconsciously I feel a bit intimidated and afraid of girls like that."

Honestly, I completely don't understand why she likes me so much...

Qin Muse suddenly remembered that in her Dream World, just as she was about to be successfully brainwashed by Suger, Yimo ran out to save her.

Later, covering her eyes to prevent herself from witnessing her parents' murder, she muttered, "I can understand it a little bit now..."

Yimo: "What?"

"I didn't hear you clearly!"

Qin Muse: "It's alright!"

"Indeed, Qian Baitao is too dazzling; we agree on that point."

"If I can survive this Game, I'll add you as a friend on the Death Game App."

Yimo: "Damn it, don't make a promise now!"

"Definitely not!"

"If you want to kill me, why would I add you as a friend?"

Qin Muse: "Qian Baitao can now eat 1000 Renminbi worth of my food every day."

"Can't I add you as a friend and ask you for some Child Support?"

Yimo: "Damn, thank goodness she's not my girlfriend!"

"Who can afford to raise this?!"

"However, in some ways, you did help relieve some of my burden."

"I'm perfectly capable of covering the money Qian Baitao lost."

"Although I feel like this game is over." Yimo deliberately set a counter-flag; even a hardcore otaku like her still cares about the sense of ritual, and the buff must be stacked to the maximum.

"If I'm lucky enough to get out, I'll transfer the money to you then."

"Hmm, doesn't this feel like Child Support to a divorced wife with children?"

Qin Muse glared at Yimo upon hearing this. "Don't make things up. There's no way we could have any relationship other than being mortal enemies!"

But seeing Yimo's face, flushed red like an apple, and the cold sweat on her forehead, looking so weak she seemed about to die at any moment, she softened a little and turned her head away, saying calmly, "I admit you saved me."

"So I will repay you."

"This cooperation is only temporary."

"From now on, we have no relations with anyone other than our enemies!"

Yimo: "Yes, yes, yes."

Qin Muse paused for a moment, then said, "You should reconsider Qian Baitao's situation."

"That child... I can't persuade him..."

"Anyway, you're confirmed to be a scumbag no matter what, but if you truly love Qian Baitao, I'll teach you a lesson, vent my anger, and then we can be completely even..."

Upon Yimo shook her head. Not wanting to play Taiji with Qin Muse, she wanted to refuse directly.

But just then, a message arrived from the system.

"Han Feng Dream World, Nightmare Transformation progress 100%, entering the Nightmare stage."

"All NPCs have entered a strengthened state, unconditionally attacking any Player, and their malice level has been greatly increased."

"Dingling! Helping Han Feng escape the Nightmare Player has earned an extra 500 Points."

This sudden news disrupted their casual conversation. Qin Muse focused her attention intensely and aimed her AWP sniper Rifle at the Brilliant Star Building.

Yimo immediately stood up and looked down at the Brilliant Star Building with her Telescope.

As expected.

As the Dream World Nightmare Transformation, all the NPCs went berserk, rushing towards the Brilliant Star Building like Zombie.

He cursed angrily and slammed whatever he was holding against the building's door, which was locked with a thick iron chain, and against the thick panes of glass!

Splash--splash--!

Even if the building's glass was extremely durable, it couldn't withstand the NPCs' frenzied smashing. In just a few seconds, all the glass at the bottom of the Brilliant Star building was shattered, and the NPCs surged into the Brilliant Star building like a tidal wave!

Qin Muse: "Should we start blowing up our building now?"

Yimo: "Wait a little longer, don't expose yourself too soon!"

"Based on my deduction, Suger won't come out this early..."

Qin Muse: "Suger, he's out."

Yimo was taken aback. "So early?"

"Can we shoot him dead?"

Qin Muse gritted her teeth. "No!"

Upon hearing Yimo grabbed his Telescope and quickly looked towards the Rooftop of the Brilliant Star building.

Upon looking at it, I was completely stunned.

At this moment, the lights on the Rooftop of the Brilliant Star Building were indeed on.

Suger has also come out.

But...

At this moment, however, he was carrying Qiao Jian, whom Yimo had never met in this Dream World, in both of his hands.

Qiao Jian seemed to be in a semi-conscious state, his eyes were unfocused, and his naked body was covered with countless knife wounds, blood seeping all over his body and dripping onto the ground.

Suger used Qiao Jian, who was much stronger than him, to shield himself from view!

The direction they were heading was exactly the direction Yimo and Qin Muse were in!

Yimo gritted his teeth. "Damn it, he really did predict that we might ambush him from a distance!"

"He was already out of range, and with Qiao Jian used as a shield, the chances of killing him are extremely low!"

"Looks like we can only wait it out!"

"Let's wait for our opportunity!"

"It's better than what we've prepared!"

Qin Muse: "Yimo, I feel like something's not right..."

"Look, isn't that Han Feng walking to the edge of the Rooftop?"

Upon Yimo, Yimo was taken aback and quickly grabbed his Telescope to look towards the edge of the Rooftop of the Brilliant Star.

On the edge of the Rooftop, a tall, thin, middle-aged man with long, flowing hair, looking bewildered and with unfocused eyes, slowly climbed up to the Rooftop and stood on Rooftop edge.

It seems like it will jump down in the next second.

Yimo saw this, she was completely dumbfounded.

Since Suger has left himself and Qin Muse until now, he must be planning to toy with them like Rat at the end, using his own twisted sense of humor to play a cruel trick on them!

He absolutely will not let Han Feng die so soon!

Even if NPCs could rush up at any moment and there is danger, now is definitely not the time!

Otherwise, he could have killed Han Feng long ago; why wait until now?

Let Han Feng stand there first; if there's danger, let him jump down to end the Game quickly.

"No... no... something's not right!!!"

Since he had already anticipated that he might be ambushed from a distance, wasn't he afraid of the Sniper Rifle being aimed at Han Feng's feet, or the Rooftop below?

Can we force Han Feng to fall and die without consuming Points, or at least with very few Points, to end the Game?

From any perspective, having Han Feng, who has been brainwashed and manipulated, standing in front of you is far more dangerous than letting him charge into the NPCs; the benefits would be much greater!

Yimo's mind raced, trying to understand Suger's motives. Sweat beaded on his forehead, only to be quickly dried by the cold wind.

Finally, Yimo got an incredible result.

He wanted to end this dream quickly?

He didn't intend to fight himself in this Dream World?

No! Absolutely impossible!

If he were to return to the real world, even if he had already laid a trap for Qin Muse, he wouldn't be able to catch himself in the Northern Islands Archipelago.

Moreover, if that were the case, his previous interest and anticipation for the Game would be completely illogical!

However, just as Yimo rejected this idea...

Han Feng stood on the edge of the Rooftop without any hesitation.

He leaped hundreds of meters into the air!

Thump--!

Yimo's heart stopped for a moment, then he looked in Suger's direction through the Telescope.

No, we no longer need to use Telescope.

Because at that moment, the large screen on the Brilliant Star building was already lit up.

The image above shows Suger's eyes filled with excitement and anticipation.

The Cross Star in his pupils had swelled to a great size, seemingly expressing his joy at that moment.

His cheerful laughter, emanating from the speakers of the Brilliant Star Building, drowned out the sounds of the NPCs frantically rushing towards the Rooftop, echoing through the night sky.

Hahahaha!!!

At the same time, he slashed the Scalpel toward Qiao Jian's neck.

At that moment, Yimo suddenly understood something.

"We've been tricked..."

Splat--!

As Han Feng fell from a hundred meters in the air, he crashed into the crazed NPCs and turned into mincemeat. The voice of the System Loli echoed in Yimo and Qin Muse's ears.

Is the Game over?

No.

"Game Player Han Feng, dead."

"The Han Feng Dream World has shattered."

"Dream Contribution Penalty: 200 Points deducted."

Current remaining Points: 3561 Points.

With that sound, Yimo's vision went black, and at the same time, the System Loli's voice echoed once more.

"Dingling, the Dream World is entering its 3-second countdown."

^"3...2...1..."

"Dingling, Dream World matching complete."

"Suger Dream World."

Have a pleasant dream journey!

Yimo finally remembered the places she had previously overlooked.

The moment Tian Jiahhao Dream World ended and he entered the Han Feng Dream World.

The system notification reads, "Dingling! Random matching in the Dream World is complete."

"Han Feng Dream World."

Have a pleasant dream journey.

In other words, the Han Feng isn't the last Dream World, which is why it's still randomly matched!

Suger's actions just now made perfect sense in an instant.

He was just fooling himself, fooling Qin Muse!

You make yourself think that the Game is about to end.

Whether or not I can kill him, at least I'm safe!

But what he was truly looking forward to was being with Qin Muse, and even with Qiao Jian, whom he hadn't killed.

Draw yourself into your own Dream World, and in the last 24 hours, indulge in self- Torment!

And in the final Dream World, the waiting time is only three seconds!

To give hope, to extinguish hope, to instill Despair.

This is the true face of Suger!

After briefly losing consciousness, Yimo found himself in a new place.

It was a small ∞ Room with dark, gray walls, some of the paint even peeling off, and mottled bloodstains beneath the dust.

There wasn't much furniture: a worn-out bed, a long cabinet for miscellaneous items, and medical equipment placed next to it that wasn't powered on and was turned off.

A small, square window, framed by metal bars, hangs high in the sky, revealing a crimson, dark Blood Moon. The crimson moonlight spills into the ∞ Room, as if veiled in layers of blood-red sand, making the dim space even more eerie and unsettling.

The air was filled with a pungent, bloody odor, which was somewhat nauseating.

Terrifying screams and howls continued to reach my ears.

It was constantly stimulating Yimo's brain nerves, telling Yimo.

This Dream World is extremely dangerous!

Within this confined space, three meters in front of him stood Qin Muse, dressed in JK Uniform, her face filled with confusion and bewilderment.

As the Dream World changed, the AWP Sniper Rifle obtained from the previous Dream World disappeared.

The two of them were matched with the same starting location once again.

Qin Muse: "Why...?"

Upon seeing Yimo, Qin Muse wanted to ask the question that had been lingering in her mind.

But the System Loli's voice interrupted her, echoing in their ears at that moment.

"Suger Dream World, Nightmare Transformation Progress 329%, currently in Nightmare Stage 3."

"All NPCs have entered a level 3 enhanced state, unconditionally attacking any Player, and their malice level has been greatly increased."

"Dingling! Helping Suger escape the Nightmare Player grants an extra 2000 Points."

Yimo looked at Qin Muse, who was already somewhat dazed, sweat pouring from his forehead, and the Blood Moon in his Left Eye growing ever brighter.

So... that's how it is?

Despite his face showing weakness and illness, like a starving Blood Ghoul, he strangely revealed a smile.

He stared at the Camera in the corner of the ∞ Room and laughed loudly, "Ha... hahaha..."

"You won't succeed..."

I've seen right through you.

"Since you want to play, then I'll play with you."

"Suger."

Do you know about Russian Roulette?

"You, me, Qin Muse."

"Let's play a real game of Russian Roulette with the three of us!"

Yimo raised the Colt Python Revolver he had redeemed from the System Shop —pointed it at the camera, and pulled the trigger!

BOOM!

The piercing sound of gunfire echoed in the narrow space.

The Camera was completely destroyed in an instant.

The sixth Dream World.

In Dream World that has long been Nightmare Transformation, filled with danger.

The duel between Yimo and Suger has officially begun!
