……

【Option [-]】

[Knock out the thief's fire, and plunge the surroundings into darkness. 】

……

Zheng Zhuo jumped forward suddenly.

The thief did not expect Zheng Zhuo to regain consciousness!He was completely off guard, and the two fell to the ground.

The fire clip "quack, quack" bounced twice on the ground, fell into the water, and went out.

The surroundings suddenly fell into boundless darkness.

"You—you—you're awake!"

The thief was shocked.He crawled back in panic.At the same time, Zheng Zhuo could feel him stretching out a hand into his bosom, trying to take out something.

What is he going to do! ?

Zheng Zhuo's mind flashed the attacking knife of the explorer.He didn't dare to think too much, he jumped forward and hugged the thief man's leg.

"Hey! Let go- let go of me!"

The thief's voice trembled, and he called out, but lowered his volume as soon as the first syllable came out.He kicked Zheng Zhuo hard, trying to make him let go.

However, how could Zheng Zhuo let go!

No matter how the thief kicked and beat him, he clung to the opponent's leg tightly and refused to let go.

Bang, bang.

Gunshots resounded.

A bullet flew into the darkness behind and bounced around the room several times.

"Let go of me! I'm going to die - we're all going to die! Stupid!!!"

Zheng Zhuo didn't let go.He clearly knew that he had reached his limit.Whether he is left here or shot by unknown visitors, he has only one way to die.

Bang.

next hair.

The bullet grazed Zheng Zhuo's head.

The opponent's accuracy is getting better and better.

"You bastard, you bastard, you bastard! Damn it, you can only do it now - it's a big loss!!!"

The thief man exerted his strength one last time and pulled out something from his arms.

then.

Before the next bullet flew, a golden light flashed in front of Zheng Zhuo's eyes.

……

…………

………………

Turn around.

Zheng Zhuo only felt as if he had been stuffed into a washing machine.

The sky and the earth are reversed and restored, and many meaningless color blocks dance and gather before the eyes.

slowly.

The scene in front of me regrouped and stabilized.

The ear can hear the sound.The nose smells of the old wooden beams of the old house.

Zheng Zhuo slowly raised his body from the wooden floor.

Moonlight spilled into the room from the window.

He saw himself in an empty house.The house is an old wooden structure with an area of ​​about fifty square meters.The house seemed to be half-built, so it didn't continue to be built. The division of the room was not carried out, and there was only a whole transparent space on the first floor.Except for the wooden floor beneath his feet, he could only see the stairs in the distance.

There are both ascending and descending stairs.Did not see the door.

This is at least the second floor.

In a corner not far away, some pots, bedding, dry food and water were piled up scatteredly.

next to what...

... The thief who was panting constantly, just like him, just propped up his body, panting heavily.

"Ha, ha, ha."

The thief was pale, and he stretched out his palm.

In his hand is a token the size of a palm.With the help of moonlight, Zheng Zhuo saw that the token was covered with cracks.

In the next second, the wind blew into the room.The token was blown by the wind and fell like sand, turning into fly ash pieces.

"Ah...ah..."

The thief man's hands grasped in the air in vain, but he couldn't stop him. He could only watch helplessly as the token disappeared in front of him.

"The number of times... ran out... just because... I brought an extra person..."

The thief man stood there blankly.After a while, he turned to Zheng Zhuo.

Oops.

Zheng Zhuo knew something was wrong.He wanted to stand up, but he was too weak to move.

next second.

Fists and feet greeted him.

"Used up three times! Didn't get anything—all because of you! Because you—"

Zheng Zhuo, who had lost too much blood, was completely powerless to resist, so he could only hold his head and bear the attack.For a moment, he thought he was going to be beaten to death——

But right now.

Boom, boom, boom.

The sound of the bell tower rang.

12 times.

The thief stopped and looked to the empty space to the left.

On Zheng Zhuo's left side, the panel also lit up.

He was surprised to find that his progress bar had risen by a long time, and now it was 31.2%.

He is not happy.Because of the words that appeared below, he felt uneasy.

……

【Tonight's winner】

【wise man】

……

【Today's Outlet】

【Love Species】【Carer】【Creator】

……

"Out? On the second day...out...three?"

Zheng Zhuo heard the thief riding on him muttering to himself.

"Really...hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey, only one was eliminated in the whole round last time?...No, no, compared to that, the number of people has been reduced too fast, right? If you reduce it further...won't it be... ... isn't it good?"

"...but...he already knew me..."

"……All right."

I don't know what the thief thought of.His eyes no longer hesitated.

next second.

He punched Zheng Zhuo's temple hard and hard.

Zheng Zhuo passed out again.

……

…………

………………

There was a sharp pain in the head.

The continuous unconsciousness made Zheng Zhuo feel as if a branding iron had been stuffed into his head.

"Uh... ah..."

But he knew that being in a coma was not a good thing.

He struggled and opened his eyes again.

The eyes are slow to focus.He moved, realizing that his hands and feet were bound—supposedly hemp rope.

But the hemp rope was not tied properly, and the knotted part was loose.Zheng Zhuo struggled a little, and the hemp rope slipped from his wrist.

Zheng Zhuo raised his head from the cold floor with difficulty.

Through the window, you can see the moon.The position was about the same as before, and he felt that he hadn't been in a coma for too long.

But the thief has disappeared.

He looked around the corner.Food and water are still there.

The wound on his right shoulder finally stopped bleeding.Zheng Zhuo moved himself with difficulty, crawling towards the corner.

He tore apart the food indiscriminately, ate some bread and compressed food, and drank a lot of water.

Just a few minutes of rest can be helpful enough.He finally recovered a little and stood up with trembling legs.

What the hell am I getting involved in...

Why does everyone want to attack me?I don't understand anything - there must be something wrong!

Zheng Zhuo yelled in his heart.

Just then, he heard chaotic footsteps above his head.At the same time, there was the sound of something "cracking" falling.

"..."

After hesitating for a moment, Zheng Zhuo approached the stairs lightly.

Above him he saw a narrow attic.The attic door was open, and what appeared to be a roof outside.

And the footsteps came from the roof.

As they got closer, the sound became clearer.

Listening to the sound, there are at least two people on the roof.And it seems to be confronting.

Zheng Zhuo climbed a few steps slightly.

He saw several saw blades in the attic.And on the roof of the attic near the door, something was shining.

"..."

How to do?
Zheng Zhuo only thought for a few seconds before the software popped up.

It always pops up at such perfect timing that it scares him a little.
