darkest personality

Chapter 8 8. Revenge
Regarding the fact that the 'owner of the house' is Rick Jones, in fact, Bai Ye already had doubts when he picked up the other party's backpack, and he didn't confirm it until he met Jimmy pretending to be a monster.

First of all, there are two single beds in that hut, which means that there are more than one occupant there.

And when he switched to the concentration posture for the first time, Bai Ye also noticed that some of the tableware on the dining table that should be used with the right hand were placed in the left hand position.

These two points, combined with the clues related to 'Lefty' in the backpack, are enough to prove that Rick Jones is also a member of the cliff hut.

Furthermore, the "owner of the house" can also enter the scene below the cliff to chase and kill players, which shows that the "owner of the house" may be related to the subsequent plot.

When it was confirmed that the blind man disguised by the monster was not Rick Jones, and there were no more characters added to the plot during this period, the true identity of the 'house owner' was naturally revealed...

"Mr. Rick Jones, don't shoot, it's one of your own!"

As Bai Ye yelled to see through the identity of the visitor, a new reminder message immediately popped up in front of his eyes;
'You have finally seen through the owner's true identity from all kinds of abnormal behaviors, this is not the hope of survival for you now! '

——Your accurate and unmistakable deciphering made the proficiency of Concentrating Stance +100.

——The proficiency level of your concentration posture has increased, and the current level is level 1!
【凝神姿态LV1：线索发现几率15%，物品发现几率10%（物品可带离场景几率+4%）。动静吸引几率+50%，受到惊吓时，陷入‘真实恐惧’的几率+45%。】

——Because you have seen through the real identity of the 'house owner', the hidden side mission [House Owner's Chase] is over, and you will get rewards: points +5, reward points +100.

……

The situation is urgent now, and Bai Ye has no time to check the reminders one by one.

When he found that Rick's double-barreled shotgun was pointed at him, he immediately raised his hands, and at the same time looked up to see the appearance of the man with the gun.

This is a powerful bearded man, 1.9 meters tall, with a strong build and thick arms.

He was wearing an army green vest, holding a shotgun in his left hand and a torch in his right hand. When Bai Ye shouted, he looked a little puzzled.

Fortunately, the chasing monster diverted Rick's attention. The monster's tentacles struck Bai Ye's back from a distance. Rick Jones was the first to spot him, and he quickly yelled to remind him: "Danger!"

Bai Ye is still in his 'super' state right now, keeping an eye out for the monsters chasing him from behind.

The moment the monster attacked, he moved sideways for a short distance to the edge of the steps, and the tentacle's heavy blow immediately fell through, smashing a stone bar of the steps.

"Mr. Rick Jones, it is the murderer of your companion!"

There was no need for Bai Ye to remind her, the enemy was already extremely jealous when they met.

The moment Rick Jones saw the monster, he raised his shotgun, aimed at the direction where the tentacles were ejected, and fired two shots in succession.

The bullets hit the two thick tentacles of the monster respectively, leaving fist-sized wounds on them, and a lot of blue stinky blood spilled out.

"Taste the taste of a gun, monster!"

Rick yelled as he quickly took out bullets from his vest pocket to reload his shotgun.

Frustrated, the monster screamed and turned around to flee...

Seeing this, Bai Ye immediately jumped down from the steps, circled around to the front of the monster from the side, and went to intercept the monster brazenly, trying to buy time for Rick.

His footsteps were fast and slow, and after finding out the wriggling pattern of one of the monster's tentacles, he flew directly to that tentacle, and held on to the tentacle tightly.

The monster was unable to move, so it could only stop running away, and flung out the tentacles angrily, trying to shake off the 'fly' that was clinging to it.

But Bai Ye's reaction was far faster than it. When the monster raised its tentacles high, he had already nimbly let go of his hand and landed on the ground, and entangled the other tentacles of the monster in the same way.

In desperation, the monster had no choice but to clumsily withdraw the raised tentacles, and lashed at Bai Ye who was hugging the other tentacles.

But Bai Ye was as slippery as a loach, and had already seen through all the monster's moves.

He dodged away before the attack came, and the tentacle was foolishly caught on another tentacle of the monster.

But since the drawn tentacles happened to be one of the tentacles used by the monster to support its body, the monster's self-drawing was a bit similar to tripping itself.

It fell heavily to the ground, and Rick Jones, who was loaded from the rear, seized the opportunity, rushed up and fired two shots at the previously attacked part.

One of the monster's tentacles snapped off, and blue blood spilled all over the ground.

Suddenly losing the tentacles used to support the balance of the body, the monster rolled and struggled in pain on the ground, screaming sharply, but could not stand up again.

With a solemn face, Rick Jones mechanically reloaded the shotgun with bullets, and then poured all the bullets on the monster's other intact tentacles.

Another tentacle was interrupted, and the monster screamed in pain on the ground, waving the remaining tentacles blindly but couldn't do anything to the two humans around him.

Rick seemed to have the intention of torturing the other party. Seeing that the monster lost the ability to escape, he did not end the other party's life immediately, but continued to break off the monster's tentacles one by one.

Finally, when the gunfire stopped, the monster's four thick tentacles were cut off, leaving only the root of the tentacles on the head of the puppet-like human body.

"Go to hell for me."

Rick stepped forward holding the shotgun and pointed the barrel at the monster's head.

"Hissssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss..."

The monster on the ground suddenly made a strange hoarse sound, and the human puppet body also twitched violently.

Then, like a severely dehydrated deep-sea creature, its skin quickly shriveled and withered, and finally turned into a withered plant-like appearance.

The human body that originally belonged to Rick's companion also shrank like a deflated doll, turning into a thin layer of human skin.

……

——Your behavior makes active posture proficiency +50.

After some entanglement with the monster, another 50 proficiency was added to Bai Ye's "Active Stance", which is currently a level 1 proficiency of 100/200.

"My God, what kind of evil creature is this?"

Rick Jones looked at the withered monster on the ground and Jimmy's human skin, feeling shuddering.

After a while, he calmed down.

"And you, if you can't give me a satisfactory explanation of your true identity..."

Rick came back to his senses, and pointed the barrel of the gun at Bai Ye while talking, "I will definitely think you are with monsters!"

"I am like you, sir."

Bai Ye quickly raised his hands and said, "I'm also an explorer who was lured here by the dwarf king's treasure."

At this point, of course, you can't just use the "car breakdown" arranged by the game system to convince the other party, so Bai Ye added some content to this reason without authorization.

Hearing this, the vigilance on the explorer's expression became less.

Bai Ye struck while the iron was hot, picked up [Rick Jones' backpack] on the ground and handed it to the other party, saying, "I learned about your deeds from this backpack, even though... I committed an unforgivable crime to your dog." crime, but I was really terrified by it at the time..."

Regarding the killing of the dog, although it was very likely that Rick Jones hadn't seen Bai Ye's face clearly because of the dark light on the cliff, Bai Ye could have thrown the blame on that monster.

But choosing to do this is to bear the huge risk of losing the trust of Rick Jones if the lie is exposed, so after thinking about it, he decided that it is better to tell the truth.

A great explorer can't just let a living person like Bai Ye apologise with death for a dog, right?

Rick pondered for a moment, with a hint of disdain among his peers in his eyes.

"Hmph! For the sake of your desperate efforts to help me destroy this monster just now, I will trust you just once."

His straightforward personality matches his appearance.

After moving the double-barreled shotgun away, Rick Jones stepped forward to pick up the human skin left behind by the monster's death.

"Jimmy, thank you for your protection, I finally avenged you!"
