âCan she see us?â Mu Ke was surprised. âDidnât Liu Huai say that Liu Jiayi really is blind? Normal actions are a problem for her.â
âIt is a visualization item. Â Bai Liu (6) mentioned it to me before. Even so, she shouldnât be able to see our hiding place so clearly in the night. It shouldnât be a conventional item to restore vision.â Bai Liuâs tone was still very calm. âThen I can understand why she suddenly called out Liu Huai. She saw more than one person in the church.â
Mu Ke reacted quickly and looked at Bai Liu anxiously. âWhat should we do? She knows that Liu Huai was lying to her. How can we coax her to heal you?â
Bai Liuâs eyes narrowed. âIâm afraid it will be difficult. This Little Witch should want to kill me with poison more than using the antidote to save me.â
Liu Jiayi hugged Liu Huai like he was a doll. It was very possessive and controlling. Her eyes swept over the red patches that represented living people in the distance and finally fell on Liu Huaiâs empty shoulder. She touched the place where Liu Huaiâs arms were cut off and Liu Huai hissed in pain.
This sound made Liu Jiayiâs expression slightly distorted for a moment.
Liu Jiayi buried her head in Liu Huaiâs shoulder and took a deep breath. She tried her best to suppress the uncontrollable emotions in her voice. âBrother, how did your arms turn out like this?â
âBrother was trying to save you.â Liu Huai comforted Liu Jiayi in a low voice as usual.
Liu Jiayi couldnât see Liu Huaiâs empty expression and Liu Huai couldnât see Liu Jiayiâs struggling expression. They hugged each other so closely and their heartbeats became tense and quick due to the other personâs proximity. They kept away from each other while saying words that pierced the layer of warmth that didnât exist.
âBrother, you just wanted to ambush me in the church, right? Are you trying to draw my blood?â Liu Jiayi asked.
âJiayi, are you Little Witch?â Liu Huai asked.
Liu Jiayiâs pupils shrank while Liu Huai fell into a strange silence. Liu Jiayiâs breathing was so rapid that it was like she was suffering from asthma. She stepped back several times like she had stepped on thorns and looked up at Liu Huai with disbelief.
Meanwhile, Liu Huai half-kneeled on the ground. He looked at Liu Huai with a sad silence as if he had accepted everything.
âJiay, when did you become a witch?â
Liu Huaiâs voice was soft. âI underestimated you, Jiayi.â
Liu Jiayi shook her head frantically, tears slipping down from her eyes as she staggered back in horror. Liu Huaiâs disappointed tone as he knelt in front of her almost made Liu Jiayi go crazy.
The current Liu Huai was like a wild animal that made her afraid, even though she had just snuggled up in Liu Huaiâs arms to keep warm.
âIâm not, Brother.â Liu Jiayi retorted reluctantly. âI donât know who Little Witch is. Who told you that?!â
âDonât call me Brother, Jiayi. I donât deserve to be your brother.â Liu Huai swayed as he stood up. He shook his head lightly and smiled in a trance. âYou are smarter than me when I was young. Everyone said that you were born to be a university student. It would be good if you werenât blind. I always felt so.â
âYou are indeed very powerful and excellent. I didnât notice at all when you played me.â Liu Huai kept shaking his head while looking at Liu Jiayi like he was seeing through her. His tone was so light that he seemed to be talking to himself. âIt would be good if you werenât my sister.â
âIt would be good if you were someone elseâs sister.â
Liu Jiayi froze in place. The words she heard from Liu Huai made her ears ring and she became unsteady on her feet.
The night wind blew on Liu Huaiâs face and he felt very cold. His eyes and expression were cold and desperate but in Liu Jiayiâs eyes, they were hot and red.
Then the red color gradually turned blue in Liu Jiayiâs eyes. It was a sign that Liu Huaiâs temperature was slowly falling.
This meant that Liu Huai might be dying.
Liu Jiayi squeezed out a smile. She reached out to grab Liu Huaiâs clothes but halfway through her action, her keen senses caused her to turn her head. âWho is over there? Come out!â
There were two looming red shadows walking in the distance while dragging a childâs red shadow. One of them was dragging something in his hands and there was the sound of knives rubbing against the cement ground.
Bai Liu followed Liu Jiayiâs gaze and his eyes narrowed. âIt is Miao Feichi and Miao Gaojiang.â
âWhy did they come to the church?â Mu Keâs expression faintly collapsed. âWe havenât tricked Liu Jiayi to our side yet! If they come then we canât resist at all! All of us have single digit points of health!â
âI originally expected to rely on the deterrence of Bai Liu (6) to prevent them from easily coming to the church. After all, there is a hidden side to counter their attacks.â Bai Liu stood behind the side door and watched the constantly approaching Miao Feichi and Miao Gaojiang. âThey really didnât come to the church during the day. It should be for this reason. I just donât know why they changed their minds.â
Bai Liuâs eyes were fixed on Miao Gaojiangâs face. Once Miao Gaojiang got closer, Bai Liuâs eyes narrowed. âMiao Gaojiangâs state isnât right. He and Miao Feichi are far apart.â
The closer they got, the more he found that Miao Gaojiangâs state wasnât right. It was past 9 oâclock and Miao Gaojiangâs physical strength had been restored. However, he was walking with the highest level of defense skill despite only Miao Feichi being around him. His eyes were also a big scattered and trembling. He seemed to be afraid of his teammate who had been cooperating with him all this time, his only son Miao Feichi.
Bai Liu was very familiar with Miao Gaojiangâs state. It was because not long ago, Liu Huai also experienced this.
âThe aftereffect of a sharp drop in mental value can make people immersed in their subconscious fear.â Bai Liu spoke with no emotion. âLiu Huai was controlled by this subconscious fear before. This aftereffect has only two outcomesâsuicide or homicide.â
Liu Huai was obviously the first type while Miao GaojiangâBai Liuâs eyes fell on his clenched fists.
It seemed that Miao Gaojiang was the second type.
A Miao Gaojiang with full defense and the crazy tendency to hurt people... Bai Liu frowned when he recalled what Puppet Zhang had said to him in the last game.
[Players who hurt people due to abnormal mental value have a name. They are called boundary monsters. They are already reserve monsters. Due to their emotional madness, their attack power is even crazier and more powerful than monsters.]
Miao Gaojiangâs eyes stared straight forward and were filled with a disturbing redness. Miao Feichi had noticed that Miao Gaojiangâs state was wrong but Miao Gaojiang was unwilling to tell him what was going on. Miao Gaojiangâs mental value had decreased in the explosion last night but Miao Feichi had been knocked out at the time. He didnât know that his father was in a very dangerous state.
Miao Feichi gritted his teeth and tried to stop Miao Gaojiang. âFather, didnât you say we can wait until after midnight for Bai Liu to die before going to the church to get rid of the others?â
âWhy are we going to the church when it is only 9 oâclock? What if little Bai Liu (6) is still there?â
Miao Gaojiang looked at Miao Feichiâs face that shifted between a man and a woman non-stop. His eyes became redder and his breathing was short. âNo matter how strong, we have to fight! Feichi, I canât wait that long!â
If he didnât pass the level soon, he would eventually attack Miao Feichi. The mental outbreak was becoming more serious and his mental value was currently fluctuating between high and low.
They had searched everywhere else in the welfare home and couldnât find Liu Jiayi. She was most likely in the child safety area of the church. He needed to get Liu Jiayiâs blood as soon as possible so he could clear the instance with Miao Feichi. Then he would go to the guildâs warehouse to find any items to alleviate the aftereffects.
Miao Feichi still wanted to dissuade his father because he felt that this plan was very impulsive. However, Miao Gaojiang sent him a terrible look and the blue veins on Miao Gaojiangâs forehead bulged.
Miao Feichi became numb and he closed his mouth.
Miao Gaojiang generally followed his decisions but if Miao Gaojiang was determined to do something, Miao Feichi had no choice but to follow, no matter how unreasonable.
Seeing the red-faced Miao Gaojiangâs mechanical approach that was getting faster, Bai Liu quickly gave an order to Mu Ke. âTake little Mu Ke back to the church and go to the tunnel to find Bai Liu (6). If his state is okay then take him out. If he isnât okay, go back to the church to hide.â
Currently, Bai Liu hadnât received Bai Liu (6)âs call. This child was usually very punctual. It was past 9 oâclock and Bai Liu (6) hadnât called for so long. This could only indicate that Bai Liu (6)âs state...
Bai Liuâs expression sank but he had no better way.
He needed a core attack power to break through Miao Gaojiangâs defense. They couldnât hold this Miao Gaojiang at all. Even Liu Jiayi couldnât hold out against him. Add the top combat power of Miao Feichi and they would be wiped out.
Mu Ke gritted his teeth and took little Mu Keâs hand to return to the church. He approached Bai Liu and said in a low voice, âDonât act recklessly before we deceive Liu Jiayiâs healing skill from her. Wait until I find Bai Liu (6).â
Bai Liu nodded in a noncommittal manner.
As a result, Mu Ke had just walked around the side door toward the front door when little Miao Gaojiang took advantage of Miao Gaojiangâs wrong state and Miao Feichiâs focus on the surrounding environment to break away from Miao Feichi in a panic. He ran frantically toward the church.
Little Miao Gaojiangâs running speed broke out to its limits. Before anyone could respond, he had reached the church. He gasped and locked the church door from the inside, blocking little Mu Ke who had just reached the door.
Once he had done all of this, he collapsed and knelt on the ground with trembling hands. The zombie investor was so terrible.
After seeing that a safe area like the church was close at hand, little Miao Gaojiangâs desire to survive drove him to run in and lock the door, although he didnât know how long it could last.
Mu Ke looked at the locked door of the church and knocked twice. He was locked out of the church by little Miao Gaojiang!
Miao Feichi chased after the fleeing little Miao Gaojiang. He saw the locked door and wanted to curse. He was about to violently break down the door using the two knives. Asa result, he found that Liu Huai, the two Mu Kes and Liu Jiayi were all in front of the church.
He raised his double knives vigilantly and looked around. Then he raised an eyebrow with disbelief and whispered to Miao Gaojiang, âFather, the little monster isnât here!â
Mu Ke alertly pulled little Mu Ke behind him and confronted Miao Feichi in a protective posture. Even so, his eyes couldnât help drifting to Bai Liuâs hiding place and his heart beat so fast that it was like he couldnât breathe.
In a time where there was no core power to fight, Bai Liu couldnât come out! His 0.5 health meant one cut would kill him!
âWeâve been tricked. That little monster canât leave the church at all.â Miao Gaojiang stared at the closed church with a gloomy and distorted expression. âStill, it seems like weâve come at the right time. Everyone is here. It is just right for us to catch them all.â
Miao Gaojiang looked very aggressively at little Mu Ke hidden behind Mu Ke and Liu Jiayi standing in front of Liu Huai with a solemn expression. He smiled like a normal, middle-aged man but his smile was creepy. âEveryone is here.â
âFeichi, open your S-grade skill.â Miao Gaojiang commanded without any emotion on his face. âQuickly fight and catch the children.â
