The Trial Game of Life

Chapter 119: Second Offence



Chapter 119: Second Offence

Scarlets threat and the other players suspicious gazes didnt slow down the speed at which the motorbike was moving. Tang Cuo slammed the accelerator, and everyone saw the overloaded bike rumble away, leaving behind only the exhaust gas for people to admire.

The motorbikes speed was so fast and the wind was so strong that Chi Yan couldnt open his eyes, and he could only hold down what he wanted to say. When they arrived at the central area where the signal flare was fired, the situation turned out to be a tad unexpected.

The swiftly-moving motorbike made the players automatically scatter to the sides, and Tang Cuo rode all the way to the spot where the crowd gathered. He stopped when he saw Leng Miaos figure.

At this point, Leng Miaos state wasnt very great. After the battle against Scarlet, he certainly had dealt damage to his opponent, but his face went as pale as a sheet and his shoulder was wounded.

But the most eye-catching thing was the girl in a black dress on the side. She held a pair of sabers, with one blade inserted into a players thigh and the other blade pointing against his neck. The player lay on the ground and sweated profusely, but he didnt dare to let out even the slightest grunt.

This must be Lilith.

Liliths expression was icy cold, faintly exuding also a hint of disdain and anger. Turning her head, she saw Jin Cheng and Tang Cuos arrival, but still she didnt forget to speak to the player on the ground: If I hear you so much as utter one sentence, Ill cut off your tongue. 

Saying so, Lilith withdrew her blade and blood started pouring out from the players thigh, dripping heavily to the ground. Though a sense of resentment surged in his eyes, the man didnt have the guts to lament, instead, he kept saying: I wont dare to, I wont dare to, then he clutched his wound and quickly limped away in a bid to flee. 

The other players also seemed to be put back by Liliths threat. Although they were talking among themselves, their voices werent loud, and they all kept a distance away. As soon as Jin Cheng got off the bike, the gazes that they gave him turned even more complicated.

Jin Cheng just pretended not to see them, walked up to Leng Miao and asked: Where is Scarlet?

Leng Miao said in a deep voice: Escaped.

Jin Cheng shrugged, not in the mood to tease him. He turned to look at Lilith, his tone a little harsh: Whats the matter with you?

Lilith pursed her lips and didnt speak.

For the first time ever, Leng Miao came forward to explain in her stead: That player encouraged others to pressure you so that you would hand over the 2nd Movement.

Hearing this, Jin Cheng sneered with his arms folded. With scrutiny and his usual overt attitude, he swept his eyes across the players who were standing around. Meeting his gaze, some players bowed their heads and chose to retreat, while some boldly looked back at him, waiting for his answer.

He said loudly: Youre seriously naive. If I really have the 2nd Movement, the whole Yong Ye City will be in the palm of my hand, why should I give it to Scarlet? In your eyes, Jin Cheng is such a foolish person, isnt he?

But you Someone in the crowd couldnt hold back and retorted, but was immediately interrupted by Jin Cheng. He looked over with eyes as sharp as a blade, with the corners of his mouth seemingly tugging up into a smile, but the words that left his lips were chilling to the bones.

If the 2nd Movement is with me, you can still hope that Ill save those dead players. But once its given to Scarlet, do you fancy becoming living corpses and kneeling at her feet? If you happen to harbour such a passion, I certainly wont have any opinion about it.

As soon as these words came out, the players clearly understood the key message, and for a moment, they looked as though they had fallen down an ice cave. They might have been shocked by the meaning in Scarlets words earlier then dazzled by the 2nd Movement, but it didnt mean that they were actually dumb. If they could survive Yong Ye City this far, they would still have basic IQ.

Scarlet or Jin Cheng? Was there really an option?

The players stopped talking, many wordlessly wiping off their cold sweat while feeling lucky in their heart that they didnt come head-to-head with Jin Cheng. But, there remained quite a few daredevil minds that were still up and running, who kept looking around. No one knew what those people were thinking.

Tang Cuo had a full view of their expressions, but he didnt move. He sat motionlessly on the motorbike with one leg propping against the ground, like an icy-cold model posing for his motorbike photoshoot.

Jin Cheng continued to add fuel: What you should do now is to find the whereabouts of the 2nd Movement, not confronting me here. Of course, if you suspect that the 2nd Movement is in my hands, its all up to your guts to come and ask me. 

As his voice fell, the players started showing hesitation, their gazes switching back and forth on Jin Cheng, Leng Miao, Lilith then Tang Cuo. Eventually, no one dared to step forward. Indeed Jin Chengs words had cut the head off the snake.

Many people sneaked back and soon disappeared into the crowd. Scarlet had run away by this point, but the living corpses were still there. They couldnt get in with so many players gathering here, but outside the circle, the poison was still spreading.

Lets go, those living corpses must be killed immediately. We cant let the infection spread further! Someone in the crowd yelled, and the players scattered away in a flash.

Lilith looked at them, her eyes seemingly sneering, then she turned around to find that Jin Cheng was also looking at her with a smile.

What did I tell you before I left? Jin Cheng tilted his head, smiling so broadly that it sent chills down ones spine.

Ive forgotten. Lilith turned her face away and, as her gaze fell on Tang Cuo, the coldness in those eyes subsided a lot. She nodded at Tang Cuo, revealing a rarely-seen hint of amicability, and Tang Cuo also nodded at her.

On the side, Jin Cheng started eating vinegar: You all always show such a good temper towards him. Do you think that if you make him happy, I wont beat you up?

Isnt that the case? With a single sentence, Lilith had Jin Cheng choked at once, then she saw Chi Yan and thought of something: Where is Wen Xiaoming? Didnt he come to you? 

Jin Cheng: He didnt come back to find you?

Lilith frowned, for she hadnt seen Wen Xiaoming since the incident took place. Hearing their conversation, Chi Yan hurriedly said: We went our separate ways after leaving Black Hats Miscellaneous Store. He said he was heading back to Zone A. Oh, I also ran into Yao Qing after that, he was almost beaten to death. It should be Scarlets doing.

This was even stranger. Where did Wen Xiaoming go?

Rong Yi is gone. He hasnt turned up since he left the Ruby Bar. With such a huge disturbance in Yong Ye City, where do you think hell be? Jin Cheng looked at Leng Miao.

How do I know? After Leng Miao drank a potion, the shade of his face got a lot better. After all, Rong Yi was his only friend, so he didnt want to gossip about him with Jin Cheng. 

After discussing it for a moment, they came to a conclusion.

Leng Miao would look for Rong Yi, while Jin Cheng would look for Wen Xiaoming. Meanwhile, they both would pay attention to any information surrounding Scarlet and the 2nd Movement.  Whether those people could be found or not, they would gather in the Ruby Bar in two hours time.

Since Jin Cheng was worried about leaving Lilith alone in Zone A, she also went back with him. Seeing that they were all going back to Zone E, Miao Qi of course refused to leave by himself and followed behind with his cannon gun on his shoulders. Once asked, he simply said he wanted to find sir Lin Yandong.

If youre looking for Lin Yandong, you should go to the prison. Jin Cheng said.

Then Ill only get trapped in it and wont be able to save him. Miao Qi usually looked at things without thinking much about them, so it was unexpected to see him having such a clear intention this time: Ill follow you. You can save him and kill Scarlet. Scarlet must die.

Looking at his solemn manner as though making an oath, Jin Cheng started doubting whether Lin Yandong sucked up to this Miao Qi extensively.

Fine, you want me to save your sir, its okay. You help me find Wen Xiaoming first. Jin Cheng slightly raised the corner of his mouth, and Tang Cuo knew for certain he was planning to take advantage of Miao Qi.

Miao Qi knew that he wasnt in the position to negotiate with Jin Cheng at the moment, so after a short pause, he nodded in agreement.

In order to find Wen Xiaoming faster, Jin Cheng decided to split up, and Miao Qi was naturally pushed out of the big group. After he left, Tang Cuo asked Jin Cheng: What do you want to say by pushing him away by that?

Jin Cheng: Its still Cuo Cuo who understands me the most.

Tang Cuo: .

Jin Cheng: Okay okay okay, Ill talk. Miao Qi blindly strikes any spot that Lin Yangdong points him to. Although Lin Yandong isnt here, who knows if Miao Qi is the pawn that Lin Yandong leaves behind. Its better not to let him hear certain things.

Tang Cuo: Scarlet?

Jin Cheng: Correct. 

Tang Cuo understood at once.

Just now, Jin Cheng solved the crisis with merely a few words. It wasnt about how difficult the crisis was, for what he said was exactly the truth. Couldnt Scarlet have thought of it?

In this Yong Ye City, no matter who got the 2nd Movement, they would never hand it over. Who cared about some intimidation? The 2nd Movement could solve everything.

But Scarlet insisted on having it handed over, so she could only have one purpose she had figured that the movement wasnt with Jin Cheng. Therefore, on one hand, she wanted to cause some trouble for Jin Cheng, and on the other hand, she wanted to lure the one who actually had the movement out.

Chi Yan was very used to their ambiguous, perplexing conversations by now, but it was the first time for Lilith. Her eyes kept sweeping back and forth between the two of them. If they werent in a rush to find Wen Xiaoming, she would definitely pull a stool over, sip on some juice and stare at them for one whole day.

Jin Cheng gave her a bump on the head, his eyes not leaving Tang Cuo: Shall we head to Black Hats Miscellaneous Store?

Tang Cuo nodded coldly, carrying with him the aura of a family head. Once again, this gesture completely won Liliths attention. .

On the other side, also in Zone E.

After getting out of jail, Qian Wei immediately wanted to reunite with Peng Mingfan. To his surprise, Peng Mingfan had to enter a dungeon because the forced mission time limit was approaching, and only left a note at home for him.

Tortured by the dungeon [Realm of Mortals], Qian Wei couldnt stay calm much longer and fell asleep on the sofa, until a living corpse broke his window and intimately threw itself on Qian Wei.

Ahhhhh! As the beautiful girl in his dream turned into a living corpse, Qian Wei was so frightened that he kicked her into the air, then he sat up on the sofa, totally freaking out.

A few seconds later, he jumped up and rushed to the window to look down, at which point he happened to catch the brilliant sight of the sun and the moon glowing together. Before he even had time to marvel, his eyes caught a glimpse of more living corpses and he thought he had got sent to yet another dungeon.

Until he got out of his apartment, he still hadnt figured out what was going on, but he recognised the red cloak that was walking by the corner of the street. It was just that this time, a man with rather plain looks appeared together with her, so the group that consisted of only two members earlier had grown to three members.

Qian Wei thought left and right. While he was afraid of Meng Yufei, he couldnt restrain his curiosity, hesitating whether he should follow them. But at this juncture, he was discovered by the plain-looking man.

Even till the point he was pressed to the ground by Meng Yufei, Qian Wei still didnt know how he got found out. In summary, it might be because of just three words his rotten luck.

Youre looking for death yourself. Meng Yufei smirked coldly.

Dont, dont!, dont Qian Wei hurriedly raised his hands to beg for mercy: Weve been in the same dungeon anyway, why bother to kill me?

You asked for it! Meng Yufei put his blade on Qian Weis neck, but the corner of his eye kept glancing at Zheng Yingying and he didnt make a move instantly.

Zheng Yingying looked at Qian Wei with half of her face covered with her hood, her expression unreadable. Qian Wei placed all his hopes on her, but seeing that she still didnt speak after a long time, his heart grew anxious. At this moment, the man beside Zheng Yingying spoke.

If you werent so impulsive in the first place, you wouldnt be sent to jail, and you wouldnt be almost killed by Jin Cheng. Of course, that man was Jiang He.

As though his foot had been stepped on, Meng Yufeis expression turned so black that ink could leak out of it: Do Chen Liu and his teammates not deserve to die? I f**king help you kill them and you mock me in return?

Jiang He: Im not mocking you. Im just stating a reasonable point.

Qian Wei understood. Meng Yufei and the little girl went to jail because they killed Chen Liu and his teammates. Qian Wei had heard the name Chen Liu from Peng Mingfan. His top-student classmate always analysed the situation in Yong Ye City in such a clear-cut manner.

Only Zheng Yingying knew that Jiang He was actually speaking to her. He was criticising her for being too impulsive to kill Chen Liu, such that she got sent to jail herself.

But if she had the choice to go back to the beginning, Zheng Yingying would still make the same move.

But he berated you. Zheng Yingying looked up at Jiang He.

Jiang He was slightly startled. Jiang He wasnt there at the time of the incident. He thought Zheng Yingying killed Chen Liu just because Chen Liu had taunted her in prison, totally not expecting that there was another reason.

A long while later, Jiang He said: I dont care about him.
