Bai Liuâs ambush did make Miao Gaojiang panic for a moment. Then after he calmed down, he realized they couldnât lose.
Miao Gaojiang patiently dangled the constantly attacking Bai Liu like a monkey. From time to time, he glanced at the battle between Miao Feichi and Liu Huai out of the corner of his eye.
Liu Huai was indeed a good assassin for attacking but Bai Liu wasnât a competent thief.
Bai Liu didnât steal anything that could allow them to retreat in time. Liu Huai was a player who wasnât good at a head-on confrontation and he soon lost under Miao Feichiâs close range attacks.
Miao Feichi tore open the bag of mental bleach with his mouth. The attack and drop in mental value made him so manic that the double knives in his hands danced.
Liu Huai obviously had a lot of trouble dealing with Miao Feichi, a rampaging senior player. Miao Feichi didnât have much intention of playing with him. He simply did a cross slash with his double knives, cutting off Liu Huaiâs arms with a skill and turning to meet Miao Gaojiang.
[System notification: Player Miao Feichi has attacked Liu Huai with his double knives. The attack was successful. Player Liu Huaiâs health has decreased by 17 and player Liu Huai has 20 health remaining!]
Removing the opponentâs attack limb was a very common and effective attack strategy in the game. In other words, cutting off an arm was a crude version of disarming and effectively preventing the player from using their weapon skills. This was why Liu Huai had cut off Mu Sichengâs hands.
It was also the reason why the previous Bai Liu and now Miao Feichi would cut off Liu Huaiâs arms.
A lot of blood spurted from Liu Huaiâs shoulders and the arms and daggers fell to the ground together, making a clear âdingâ sound. Liu Huai knelt on the ground, his face as white as a piece of paper soaked in water. He was gasping for breath and it was obvious he had lost any attack power.
He tried his best but he could only drag Miao Feichi for this long.
[System warning: Player Liu Huaiâs mental value is fluctuating violently and has decreased to 57. Hallucinations are about to occur. The player is asked to quickly restore their mental value!]
Generally speaking, Miao Feichi would directly kill Liu Huai but now time was urgent. It would take at least a while to kill Liu Huai, a player with an A-grade panel. Now there was someone he wanted to kill even more.
Miao Feichi gritted his teeth and turned around with the knives. âBai Liuâ!â
He crouched down and jumped across the wall, double knives filled with a violent destructive power as he attacked Bai Liu who was attacking Miao Gaojiang. The wall was cut by his double knives, causing the wallpaper and plaster layer to be damaged and burst out. The whole room was filled with flying debris. Bai Liu turned sideways in the air and blocked Miao Feichiâs descending double slashes with his claws.
Miao Feichiâs knives were blocked by Bai Liu with Mu Sichengâs monkey hand skill for a moment. Most of the attack power was removed but it wasnât completely blocked. Miao Feichi had completely exploded with anger and one of Bai Liuâs hands was cut off by Miao Feichi, blood gushing out.

This look instantly pulled Liu Huai out of the slow-motion world. Liu Huai shook his head and struggled to get up.
It wasnât over, everything wasnât over yet.
In Bai Liuâs plan, this was just the beginning.
For Jiayi, Bai Liu must not die!
Liu Huai tried his best to focus on the ground and search. Finally, he saw the pair of arms holding daggers that had been cut off by Miao Feichi.
The daggers were held loosely by his hands. The tips of the daggers flashed with a bit of blood and Liu Huaiâs eyes focused on that bloody light.
Bai Liu was fighting with Miao Feichi and Miao Gaojiang and no one noticed this bloody corner. Liu Huaiâs eyes finally hardened. He knelt on the ground and stumbled forward on his knees. He crawled to where his arms had been cut off. Liu Huai looked at the face-up daggers, took a deep breath, closed his eyes and fell on the tip of one dagger.
[System warning: Player Liu Huai is attacked by the shadow dagger and your mental value has decreased⌠the mental value drop caused by your own skill weapon is being calculated⌠after the calculation is completed, player Liu Huaiâs mental value has dropped to 7!]
[System warning: Player Liu Huai has opened the rage panel!]

After fully opening it, the individual skill will be upgraded to the A++ level but the playerâs physical strength will be affected due to overdraft and it canât be restored with a physical strength recovery agent for 24 hours.]
Liu Huai crawled up. He was covered in blood and his arms had fallen to the ground. He grabbed a dagger with his mouth, his eyes filled with a type of inorganic coldness. There was a type of desperation and sadness that made him seem like a real, deadly assassin trained to kill others at all costs.
Bai Liu was the user of this assassin and was likely to be the last user.
There were tears in Liu Huaiâs eyes.
[I am sure.]
[System notification: Player Liu Huai is certain to use it. The dagger attack +6037, comprehensive panel attack data +2200. The total attack data is 8237. Player Liu Huaiâs physical strength is declining rapidlyâŚ]
The double knives held high by Miao Feichi were about to fall fiercely when his back seemed to be approached by a dark wind. It seemed like something that made him feel danger and alertness suddenly appeared behind him. Miao Feichiâs alertness from his many battles made him turn back quickly.
He saw Liu Huai, with a dagger in his mouth and no arms. Liu Huaiâs eyes contained a sinister determination and he stabbed at Miao Feichi who couldnât dodge in time.
âFeichi, be careful!â Miao Gaojiang pulled Miao Feichi over but Liu Huai reacted very quickly. He lowered his body while biting down on the dagger. The moment Miao Gaojiang tried to pull Miao Feichi, he changed the target of his attack. Liu Huai bit the dagger and with a distorted and ferocious expression, he silently roared as he viciously and tearfully plunged the dagger into Miao Gaojiangâs abdomen.
âHow can youâŚâ Miao Gaojiang stared at the dagger plunged into his abdomen. ââŚBreak through my defense?â
[System notification: Player Liu Huai has used the skill One Hit Flash. The skillâs critical hit has broken through player Miao Gaojiangâs defense, causing player Miao Gaojiang to become stiff for 30 seconds. The mental value has fallen to 51 and hallucinations are about to appear. Due to the mental shock, player Miao Gaojiangâs defense value is fallingâŚ]
The moment when Miao Gaojiang stiffened and fell into a trance, Bai Liu clearly felt that Miao Gaojiangâs originally hard skin had become softer. He quickly used his only intact monkeyâs hand to grasp this gap and grab at Miao Gaojiang.
Miao Feichi, who was pulled over by Miao Gaojiang, saw Bai Liuâs actions. His eyes were red as he roared, âDonât fucking think about moving against my father!â
Miao Feichiâs double knives were raised high. One was preparing to attack Bai Liu while the other slashed at Liu Huai.
Liu Huai bit the dagger and pulled it out of Miao Gaojiangâs abdomen. His physical strength was almost exhausted and he had no strength to deal a blow. He could only narrowly dodge Miao Feichiâs attack. However, he couldnât prevent Miao Feichi from attacking.
Meanwhile, Bai Liu simply didnât care about Miao Feichiâs knife that was about to cut him. His eyes were extremely focused and he didnât care about his own life or death. The monkey hand was still extending toward Miao Gaojiang as he entrusted his back to Liu Huai, who had no arms.
This was what they had discussed from the beginning.
[âŚI donât think I can stab Miao Gaojiang once and then block Miao Feichiâs attack on you. This plan is too risky. Bai Liu, if you give me your back then you will die!]
[You have cooperated with Mu Sicheng so many times and he handed over his back to you. You didnât let him die.]
[âŚStill, I let him lose his hands.]
[You betrayed Mu Sicheng with that dagger in your hand but once the time comes, you will have no arms to betray me. Liu Huai, my style is that before things happen, I always assume that the other person can do it. You can do it, right?]
The decline in mental value caused Liu Huaiâs eyes to be somewhat unfocused. He looked at Bai Liu stretching out the monkey hand and finally stared at Bai Liuâs face.
In this world where Liu Huaiâs mental value was low, the familiar cooperative attack caused the faces of Mu Sicheng and Bai Liu in front of him to overlap repeatedly. It was as if the man who skillfully stole with him and trusted the rear to him without the slightest doubt was Bai Liu as well as the friend he hadnât contacted for a long time.
âBrother Si,â Liu Huai muttered silently.
The betrayal was like a dagger stuck in Liu Huaiâs heart.
Liu Huaiâs body struck Miao Feichi, his face full of unknowing tears. He blocked the way for Bai Liu but he couldnât tell if the person behind him was Bai Liu or Mu Sicheng. He just did what the assassin in the thief and assassin combination should do.
âStand at the rear and do everything possible to clean up all obstacles for the wildly stealing monkey thief.
Miao Feichi was unable to recover the knives and slashed the double knives into Liu Huaiâs body, who was screaming as he covered for Bai Liu. At almost the same time, Bai Liu turned his head and his monkey hand finally hooked onto Miao Gaojiangâs body.
[System warning: Player Liu Huai has been attacked by Miao Feichiâs double knives. Your health has fallen to 17⌠16⌠14. There are 4 points left! Please leave the dangerous scene as soon as possible! Your health value is falling!]
[System notification: Player Bai Liu has used the skill Thiefâs Monkey Hand to successfully steal the Sirenâs Fishbone, Ghost Mirror (has been pierced together completely)⌠and so on.]
Bai Liu pulled out a white, fluorescent whip from Miao Gaojiangâs body. Miao Gaojiang was still in the stiffened state and could only watch Bai Liu pull out the whip without hesitation and aim it at Miao Feichiâs double knives.
Sirenâs Fishbone couldnât exert much power in the hands of the F-grade panel Bai Liu but it had a special bugâthe attack judgment was extremely strong.
A strong attack judgment meant that regardless of whether the itemâs attack caused damage or not, it was judged to be true. Bai Liuâs whip snapped at Miao Feichiâs double knives and immediately knocked away the double knives, Liu Huai, who was being slashed by the double knives, felt his legs softening. His eyes were unfocused as he knelt on the ground stained with his own blood.
[System warning: Player Liu Huai only has 2 health left! Please leave the dangerous scene as soon as possible!]
Miao Gaojiangâs 30 seconds of stiffness was almost over but he was filled with an inexplicable uneasiness as he looked at the completely unresponsive Liu Huai and Bai Liu whose health was almost exhausted. As long as Miao Feichi dealt one hit, Bai Liu and Liu Huai would be resolved quickly.
These two people mightâve successfully stolen something but it was impossible to overturn the situation. There were no items in that pile of things that could turn defeat into victory.
So where did this sense of crisis that made him breathless come from?
Miao Gaojiang quickly thought about the items that Bai Liu took away. They were all the items dropped by Bai Liu when he pretended to be dead.
This guy did such a big move to get back the items he abandoned when he played a trick?
Wait, this was wrong!
Miao Gaojiangâs eyes froze as he thought about a very peculiar item. There was an item that was from Bai Liu but also wasnât from Bai Liu.
That Ghost Mirror.
After getting all the broken lenses last night, they put together the Ghost Mirror. However, this Ghost Mirror had no special use. The system didnât give any specific functions and the attributes were unknown. They needed to explore it on their own and it could only be used once in each instance.
Weâre sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so weâre going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
However, the mirror didnât react when they put it together. It was just an ordinary mirror that could store things.
Miao Gaojiang hadnât cared about this bomb because with his skills, this bomb wouldnât kill him so easily. Under his protection, Miao Feichi naturally wouldnât die easily either. His inference was correct. There was indeed no item in the backpack that could kill them in one hit.
Miao Gaojiang just hadnât expected there would be someone in this instance who could let him stand frozen for 30 seconds.
He was frozen in place and wouldnât be killed with his skills, but Miao Feichi was a player with very low resistance to damage. He would definitely be killed in a close-range explosion!
Miao Gaojiang never thought that Bai Liu would use the bomb. It was because after using this thing, he and Miao Feichi might not be killed but Bai Liu and Liu Huai who had very low health would definitely die.
These two lunatics werenât cooperating in an ambush of a thief and assassin. This was a completely desperate suicide attack!
Bai Liu was playing a two for two trick!
From beginning to end, Bai Liu wasnât trying to steal but to kill them!
âFeichi! Donât go and attack! Stay away from them!â Miao Gaojiang broke through the shackles. His eyes were red as he roared hoarsely, âHide behind me!â
Bai Liu had one foot on the bookcase and the other on the frame of the stolen Ghost Mirror that was as tall as the bookcase. He crouched on the bookcase and mirror, his intact hand (or scarred monkey hand) casually placed on his bent knee, blood dripping down and hitting the mirror.
He held the fishbone with a mild white fluorescence. His forehead was scratched in the struggle and blood flowed down to wet his eyes and long eyelashes. Even so, he kept his eyes open. There was a peaceful smile on the blood covered face as he looked down at Miao Feichi, who hadnât recovered yet, and Miao Gaojiang who was screaming with fear. Bai Liuâs hand entered the mirror as if to pull something out with force.
âItâs too late, Father Miao,â Bai Liu said with a smile. âIsnât it good to see your son die? Still, I want to tell you something. I wonât do a bad thing like separating father and son. You and your son wonât be separated. You will both die together. Oh, it isnât exactly together. Your resistance is higher than your sonâs. You will watch your son die first before accompanying him.â
Miao Feichi had already hidden behind Miao Gaojiang. He didnât know what was going on but Miao Gaojiang had roared like it wasnât a small matter. Therefore, he obeyed the order.
Miao Gaojiang looked up at Bai Liu who was barefoot on top of the mirror and tried his best to maintain his composure. âThe explosive power of this bomb canât kill me.â
To be precise, it would normally take five large explosions from this type of bomb to kill Miao Gaojiang.
Bai Liu opened the eyelids that were dyed bright red and he looked down at the father and son without any fluctuations. He was like a god who arbitrarily sanctioned the lives of others because of boredom.
âYou might think this bomb canât kill you as a player with high resistance, but you have forgotten something. You arenât only a player. You are also a monster.â
ââA terminally ill monster that sucks blood from children. You have weaknesses.â
Miao Gaojiangâs breathing paused for a few seconds and his pupils shrunk to small dots.
Yes, this was correct. If players had the status of a monster then they would be affected by the monsterâs weaknesses. The impact wasnât serious but once it happened, this usually small impact would be the last straw to overwhelm them.
This was a damp place with no light in order to grow mushrooms. The weaknesses of the patients here were obvious from the beginning but the system didnât sell them any related items.
âYou canât see the light.â Bai Liu leaned into the mirror as ripples spread on the surface of the mirror. He pulled out a large black bomb from the mirror and smiled lightly as he threw it to the ground. âThere canât be fire or dryness.â
The bomb on the ground exploded with great heat and light.
The face of Bai Liu standing on the mirror and Liu Huaiâs hollow eyes as he lay on the ground were gradually covered by the red light bursting out of the bomb.
Miao Gaojiangâs eyes seemed like they were about to pop out. âStop it!!!â
The entire building shook with a loud bang and huge smoke and fire broke out.
[The Love Welfare Institute Monster Book has refreshedâPlant Patient (2/3)]
[Monster name: Plant Patient]
[Features: 500 movement speed, needs a lot of water for growth, likes humid environments.]
[Attack method: Sucking body fluids, poisonous fog pollution.]
[Congratulations to player Bai Liuâs main identity line for collecting the Plant Patient page of the monster book.]
[System notification: Player Bai Liu has used the Ghost Mirror item once. The item has entered the cooldown state in the âLove Welfare Instituteâ instance and canât be used againâŚ]
âSo? How did you survive?â Bai Liu (6) felt rare interest and asked as he read the interface of the monster book. âI listened to what you said before. Liu Jiayiâs brother, Liu Huai, also survived. How did you survive the explosion?â
Bai Liu answered lazily, âIn the last moment of the explosion, I dragged Liu Huai with the whip and hid in the mirror. The Ghost Mirror is an item that can clearly resist explosions so I was lucky enough to survive. In fact, I thought I would die because my health was too low. Just a small touch from the explosion would kill me. In the end, I was lucky. However, I fainted due to the bombing and just woke up.â
âIs that Miao duo dead?â Little Bai Liu (6) asked.
âUnfortunately, they arenât dead either.â Bai Liu didnât feel any frustration despite his plan failing. He gave a very objective and plain evaluation. âIt was my calculation error. I donât know what method Miao Gaojiang used but he attacked himself to let his mental value fall below 20. The rage panel allowed him to resist the explosion.â
âStill, their health was also depleted. After the explosion, the nurses came up quickly and dragged them both down. They are currently in the surgery room and at the very least, they wonât be able to make things difficult for you tomorrow. The nurses wonât allow it and the welfare home wonât be opened.â
âMany investors and their rooms were damaged in the explosion. The blood ganoderma lucidums on the beds are also being rescued. Therefore, the hospital has canceled tomorrowâs matching. Generally speaking, my goal was achieved.â
Bai Liu (6) was quiet for a long time. He could only hear the sound of Bai Liuâs gradually weakening breathing.
In fact, it was a bit disgusting. He wanted to ask about Bai Liuâs situation but asking was too disgusting. Thus, there was a silent standoff.
âHello? If you arenât speaking anymore, I want to report you for passively chatting and cheating me of money.â Bai Liu casually opened his mouth.
âHow are you?â In the end, Bai Liu (6) still asked in an expressionless manner. âIt is a bit disgusting but I think I need to understand your situation. After all, you are dying in order to give me an opportunity.â
Bai Liu, who had one hand cut off and was lying on the ground, unable to move, held the phone he had difficulty answering in his other hand. He stared up at the ceiling that had a big hole blown in it by himself.
There were no stars in the night sky outside, only the deep night. The ground he was lying on and the sky were the color of burned coal, making him feel like he was dead for a moment. He felt like he had become a floating soul and was calling his 14 year old self in a sky without stars.
âItâs fine.â Bai Liu smiled as he spoke wearily, âEverybody is still alive. We did a good job tonight.â
