A tearing of flesh and blood sounded.
Li Jia Yi’s eyes widened, and he looked down at his waist.
Bai Ye’s kick had driven the Ning Shuang Sword entirely into Li Jia Yi’s body, with even a section of the blade piercing through the other side.
Drip, drip…
Blood continuously dripped from the tip of the sword.
Clang!
Li Jia Yi’s grip loosened, and the tower shield fell to the ground with a loud noise, then turned transparent until it vanished.
Li Jia Yi’s entire body went soft and knelt on the ground, his head then smashing onto the floor.
Soon, crimson blood flowed out from beneath Li Jia Yi’s body, forming a pool.
Bai Ye bent down to look at Li Jia Yi, reached out to feel for his breath, and after confirming the guy was dead, he drew out the Ning Shuang Sword. He then glanced around and finally decided to jump off the platform, heading forward along the subway tracks.
As the saying goes, when playing the role of a sneaky sixth player, you must move after every strike.
Bai Ye had wanted to withdraw after dealing with Wei Yang, but Li Jia Yi had appeared. Now, after fighting with Li Jia Yi, the possibility of others arriving was even greater, especially Si Tu Chi Cheng, who was roaming nearby.
Si Tu Chi Cheng…
If possible, Bai Ye did not want to confront him this early.
In his previous life, Si Tu Chi Cheng had been a major headache for Bai Ye. While he couldn’t be compared to his previous life in this one, considering how long the World Battlefield had been active…
However, Si Tu Chi Cheng had a natural advantage in entering the World Battlefield. He was a disciple of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect from a Xianxia world. More precisely, before entering the World Battlefield, Si Tu Chi Cheng was already formidable with his sword control techniques alone, and his strength increased rapidly after adapting to the World Battlefield.
In fact, Si Tu Chi Cheng’s zodiac sign was Zi Shu (Rat), meaning he had completed the most number of forbidden zone quests, making him very likely the strongest among the twelve.
Of course, Bai Ye had the gachapon machine, so he wasn't incapable of a direct confrontation, but now wasn’t the time. Even if he had to fight, Bai Ye would prefer to face Si Tu Chi Cheng at the last moment.
Therefore, turning back was not an option. To avoid encountering others, Bai Ye could only choose to move forward.
Soon, Bai Ye disappeared into the dark end of the subway track.
At this very moment…
“Ugh…”
Li Jia Yi, who had appeared to be thoroughly dead, suddenly let out a groan. His body actually began to stir. He suddenly raised an arm and pressed it against the wall, leaving a bloody handprint.
“That guy…” Li Jia Yi slowly stood up, gasping. “Just as I deduced, I couldn’t win!”
Leaning against the wall, Li Jia Yi panted heavily. After resting for a moment, he raised his right hand, formed a receiver shape with his little finger and thumb, and held it to his ear.
“Hello!” Li Jia Yi said. “I’m dead. I only managed to save my life with a substitute puppet, but I lost my Si She (Snake) identity and am likely out of the competition. I can’t make a wish.”
“So quickly?” came a voice from the other end of the line. “With your strength, you shouldn’t be eliminated this fast, right?”
Li Jia Yi replied, “It can’t be helped, there are too many tough characters.”
“Then all our hard work completing the hidden quest in the Death Amusement Park and obtaining the wish quest opportunity is wasted just like this?”
“It’s fine. We’ve only lost the reward for the wish quest. My purpose for obtaining the wish quest wasn’t solely for the reward. What’s important is the region where the Twelve Great Battles are held. I will leave coordinates here and hide where I can’t be found. You need to find a way to gather people as quickly as possible and, after the Twelve Great Battles end, locate this region.”
“Okay, I’ll try my best.”
Li Jia Yi’s voice turned cold. “Not ‘try your best.’ You *must* accomplish it!”
“I understand!”
Li Jia Yi lowered his right hand, looked around, and also jumped off the platform, choosing the opposite direction to Bai Ye and walking forward.
…
At the same time…
Bai Ye walked for a while before finally seeing light ahead. He had reached the platform of the next station.
After jumping onto the platform, Bai Ye glanced at the electronic display on the side, which had already refreshed the list of survivors and the location information of a randomly selected participant.
In the second hour of the Twelve Great Battles, the death toll had reached five.
They were You Ji (Rooster), Wei Yang (Sheep), Si She (Snake), Xu Gou (Dog), and Shen Hou (Monkey)!
Bai Ye looked at the list and was speechless.
He just wanted to quietly be a sneaky sixth player, but among the five who died, he had killed three, which was more than half. Furthermore, they were all frontal kills.
At the same time, after his speechlessness, Bai Ye was also surprised.
Xu Gou’s death was normal. After all, that guy was being hunted by Si Tu Chi Cheng. Survival was almost a fantasy; it was only a matter of dying sooner or later.
What surprised Bai Ye was that Shen Hou had also died.
To know that the person who obtained the Shen Hou identity was one of Bai Ye’s acquaintances from his past life!
Alexander Garland, known as the "Villain," one of the six regional captains of the Hidden Dragon Society!
Although he shouldn't judge current strength with the perspective of his past life, Garland was one of the few experts who survived until the end in Bai Ye’s previous life. It had only been a little over a month since the World Battlefield opened, and he was already dead…
This made Bai Ye feel somewhat unreal and also made him sigh.
At the same time, Bai Ye also felt a sense of crisis. After his second chance, things in this life wouldn't necessarily be the same as in his previous life.
After all, the future was unknown and changeable!
Of course, the sense of crisis only lasted for a moment. With the gachapon machine in hand, Bai Ye’s starting point in this life was much higher than in his previous life. Therefore, Bai Ye firmly believed that what he could achieve then, he could still achieve now.
And at the end of the list, the location information of one participant was also announced.
Mao Tu (Rabbit), Hua Qing Street, No. 22, Telecom Building, Ninth Floor, Boiler Room.
Bai Ye couldn’t help but grin and say, “No one would willingly go looking for that woman, right?”
Mao Tu’s identity was…
The Arms Queen – Bai Lu!
Bai Lu’s combat style had already been displayed in the building, causing chaos and pandemonium. Moreover, it was already showing the nascent form of her past life. The firearms she possessed were frighteningly numerous, truly living up to the name of Arms Queen.
And Bai Lu’s combat style allowed her to exert tremendous advantage when in a defensive posture. In fact, if Bai Ye were to go looking for her directly, he might be blown up by a barrage of landmines before even reaching her location.
