The One Who Did It Was Actually Him!
The Iron Law Knights arrived as summoned and surrounded the entire prison. Their targets were not only the unruly Death Sentence inmates, but also all the Punishment Knight present. They believed that an unknown assassin had infiltrated their ranks, so everyone was on high alert.
But the players knew that the killer was probably none other than one of their teammates.
It's unclear what the teammate's purpose was in staging such a grand spectacle, causing such a huge uproar that left everyone with no chance to escape, and even imprisoning a group of Punishment Knight.
This reduces the players' room for maneuver to almost zero.
If the person who did this is also still in prison, how does he plan to break the trap he himself set?
Cheng Shi had considered that Su Wu was behind all of this, and that after taking advantage of the chaos to plot and kill all his teammates, he attempted to fake his death to escape.
But the Iron Law Knight quickly dismissed Cheng Shi's idea, because as they dragged away the only dead man in the chaos, they also shot him in the heart.
The shot was very solid, even penetrating the corpse's chest cavity and connecting with the gunshot wound in the back, but the corpse still showed no reaction and was clearly dead.
Clearly, the Iron Law Knight were also considering this possibility and put their methods to close the loopholes into practice. After completing these cleanup measures, the body with its chest and back pierced was dragged away by the Punishment Knight, like a rag, to the Corpse Field outside the prison.
The deceased Su Wu can be ruled out, but who among the remaining teammates would still set up this scheme?
It's definitely not the missing Li Yi, because he's probably still in this prison, and squeezing himself out of his own escape space isn't in his best interest.
Ji Er? As a Clown, or rather as a Priest, he had no reason to let the situation deteriorate to this point and then send himself to the arena to fight a warrior to the death.
It's possible he could get a pardon in his Gao San, but how could he be so confident that he could beat everyone and get a pardon?
At the very least, he, the Acrobat, and the screenwriter in position four should both be formidable opponents for him.
But if we exclude the Gao San...
Is it possible for Zhao Si to do this? His situation is the same as that of Gao San; there's absolutely no need for him to push himself to such extremes.
Cheng Shi still couldn't figure out the cause and effect, but there wasn't enough time for him to think it through. After things stabilized at the scene, the prisoners in the central area who had lost their cages were dragged by the Iron Law Knight who took over the area to the arena above.
The players dressed in red prison uniforms were the first group to be taken away after the chaos.
Ji Er, curled up on the ground, and Gao San, whose body was stiff, were dragged away. Under the watchful eyes of countless knights, they had no more chance to play tricks.
Gao San are naturally not nervous, after all, he is a warrior, but Ji Er is different. At this moment, he has completely lost his previous fighting spirit and seems to have suffered a great shock in the chaos of the fog.
As the seven men were dragged into the arena, a deafening roar erupted from the crowd. The massive arena was divided into four sections, where four deadly duels were taking place simultaneously. The audience no longer had to worry about any duel not being exciting enough, as they had plenty of options.
In the southwest corner of the arena, Gao San, seeing Ji Er still in a Ji Er, cautiously walked towards him.
Ji Er hands and feet, his voice trembling uncontrollably through the Prison Helmet. He was terrified, terrified!
"No... don't kill me! We're teammates, we have to cooperate..."
No, please, no!
"It's too late. I still love your rebellious side. I'm sorry, I have to live."
"No!!!"
Cheng Shi had absolutely no chance to make any underhanded moves under the close watch of the Punishment Knight.
He pondered for a long time and realized that the only way to escape the knights' heavy guard was to be dragged into the arena.
The teammate who pulled off a series of clever maneuvers in the fog cornered everyone.
The final showdown became the only option for the players to leave the prison. Seeing the situation clearly Cheng Shi abandoned his own petty thoughts and began to accumulate strength to wait for the final showdown.
He had begun to consider whether he would face the warriors of "Truth" or the Mage of "Destiny" next.
But is Zhao Si... really the Mage of "Destiny"?
If he really is a screenwriter, then why didn't he rewrite someone else's script during that chaos?
While the screenwriters in this segment cannot influence the direction of the story, they can indirectly affect the path of the "protagonist" by rewriting the stories of the "passersby".
So in his story, who is the "protagonist" and who is the "passerby"?
Or perhaps he has already rewritten the story?
Whose? Li Yi, Gao San, or Ji Er, whose personality has drastically changed?
Cheng Shi turned to look at Zhao Si with great confusion, only to find that Zhao Si was also looking at him. Not only that, he cleverly put his lips to the mouth hole of the Prison Helmet and communicated with him with subtle lip Change.
Fortunately Cheng Shi Shizhen understood lip reading. He understood what Zhao Si was trying to say:
"I didn't lay a hand on him."
!
Cheng Shi's gaze sharpened, and mimicking his gesture, he brought his lips close to the Prison Helmet, and said slightly, "I don't believe it!"
The feeling of communicating under the noses of countless Punishment Knight was insane, and it once made Cheng Shi feel his adrenaline surge.
Zhao Si received Cheng Shi's response and remained silent.
Although Cheng Shi didn't say anything, he had already guessed what was going on. He realized that the person who had made the move wasn't Cheng Shi either.
If Cheng Shi is the murderer, he doesn't need to pay attention to himself anymore, which would only increase the risk of an accident. He has already done what he wanted and just needs to wait for time to give him the answer.
Therefore, from Zhao Si's perspective, the person who made the move had almost no other choice when Cheng Shi responded.
Ji Er, or Gao San.
Whoever orchestrated this scheme during the chaos will soon find out, because the person who orchestrated it will never allow themselves to die first.
Zhao Si lowered his gaze slightly and remained silent.
When Cheng Shi saw his appearance, all his doubts were resolved.
This is not how a strategist should act, so Zhao Si is the one kept in the dark. In that case, the answer really seems to lie between Ji Er and Gao San.
Cheng Shi leaned towards the Gao San because this warrior of "Truth" was indeed a bit eccentric.
But he never expected that the outcome of the fight would show him another answer.
Less than ten minutes after Ji Er and Gao San were dragged away, the defeated victim, dressed in a red prison uniform, was dragged back down by the Iron Law Knight.
The corpse's limbs were twisted and limp, as if the joints had been removed. Although the chest cavity was dragging along the ground, all the holes in the Prison Helmet were facing upwards!
Clearly, his neck was broken, twisted 180 degrees.
The man's physique told Cheng Shi that he was not Ji Er, but Gao San!
He died in his Gao San; he died at the hands of a "Priest."
Cheng Shi's pupils constricted sharply, in disbelief.
It was him!
The one who did it was actually Ji Er!
Just as he had predicted, he had a deadly backup plan.
But what exactly is this backup plan?
