Chapter 91 Hopeless Sea (Twenty-Two) Vice-Sin

Chang Xu dragged the skeleton brought down from the top of the bell tower and walked through the coconut grove, his brain spinning and peeling off cocoons on its own, replaying the words that Qisi said when they parted with him.

‘Xila’s configuration of the official copy is usually a group of three people, which means there are still two puppets left. ’

‘When I die, I will have plenty of time to catch up on my sleep. ’

‘I’ve been targeted. Whether I can survive this dungeon is up for grabs. ’

Scenes reappeared before his eyes, and an unknown premonition arose spontaneously in Chang Xu's heart.

He intuitively felt that something difficult to solve was going to happen. He and Qiss were on the edge of a cliff, pulled by a dead branch, and would fall into the abyss at any time.

It's getting late. Chang Xu placed the skeleton in the forest, turned around and walked towards the hotel.

The coconut groves on both sides changed from dense to sparse, and the scenery in front of me became wider. A two-story wooden building stood quietly in the open space.

Under the dim sky, the hotel building was eerily silent, and the air felt suspiciously stagnant and depressing, just like the few minutes before it rained on a cloudy day.

Chang Xu stared at the low wooden building, and suddenly had the illusion that he was being targeted by a monster, as if the wooden building was the biggest ghost, waiting for him to crash into it with its bloody mouth open.

He strode over. Just as his hand was about to touch the doorknob, the door was pulled open from the inside.

The person who opened the door was a small man. After seeing him, he seemed to have encountered some dangerous person. He took a step back, his eyes full of disgust and fear.

Chang Xu looked past this man and looked around the entire hall on the first floor.

There were only eight people including him in the hall, and there was no sign of Qiss. Everyone's face was extremely solemn, staring directly at him, conveying a message of caution.

Chang Xu immediately realized that something might have happened during his absence, something related to Qisi.

A man sneered; "Ye Lin is alive and dead, do you know?"

Chang Xu remembered that "Ye Linsheng" was the long-haired young man who always followed Lu Li.

His eyes narrowed slightly, and just as he was about to speak, he heard the little man yelling: "Stop talking nonsense, let's go together! He and that Si Qi stuck together as soon as they entered the dungeon. They are probably on the same team!"

The players stood up one after another, picked up the guy and gathered around, staring eagerly.

Chang Xu's back tensed instinctively, and the fingertips of his left hand lit up with a blue light, slowly condensing into a black playing card.

[Name: Destiny Poker]

[Type: Skill]

[Effect: You can use it as an ordinary cutting weapon, or you can use it to predict or even rewrite the fate of others (to be evolved, the specific operation method is to be explored)]

[Note: Your destiny is not included in the compilation of the world line, so you will naturally not be favored by the God of Destiny. Luck is nowhere to be found, misfortune follows like a shadow; the gods are absent and the throne is vacant, who can the belated believers pray to? 】

A dozen playing cards were suspended around him, forming a protective ring. He observed the expressions of everyone in front of him, knowing that something might have happened to Qiss.

A flying knife came towards him, Chang Xu activated the card, and the blue light flashed, splitting it in half.

The melee was about to break out, and the figures of the players were painted in various colors in Chang Xu's eyes. The landing points and paths of weapons and attacks were marked with red lines, criss-crossing the entire space that was rendered into a light golden color.

The lines appeared in darker or lighter colors based on the estimated damage caused. The Destiny Poker faced the most deadly attacks and exploded in the air the moment it blocked it.

The blue light spots splashed like snowflakes, and the players attacked one after another. Chang Xu never fought back, he only dodged the crimson lines sideways, jumped up, and ran into a large mess of red water.

Blood spattered and seeped into the black clothes, making it difficult to see clearly. He quickly analyzed the situation, made a decision, and rushed to Lu Li who was sitting behind the crowd without saying a word.

"No! Protect Professor Lu!" Some players realized something was wrong, but it was too late.

The blue light flew to the corner of the wall carrying the spilled blood beads. Chang Xu stood firmly in front of Lu Li like a stone tablet and placed the cards around his neck.

All the players' movements came to a standstill, and the scene fell into a stalemate.

Chang Xu's black clothes seeped with blood, which was scattered in a shallow circle on the ground, but his voice did not rise and fall: "Where is Si Qi?"

Lu Li looked up into his eyes and asked, "What is your relationship with Si Qi?"

"He is my teammate." Chang Xu said, "I promised him that I would do my best to take him out of this dungeon."

Lu Li smiled: "He was a puppet and killed Ye Linsheng, did you know?"

Zeiss is a puppet? How can it be?

In the Rose Manor, he was obviously unfamiliar with the name of the Silas Guild, and now he was not interested in their ideas. How could he...

Chang Xu's pupils narrowed slightly, but he heard Lu Li suddenly say: "Oh, yes, Hans, Siqi, plus You, there are exactly three puppets, we have found them all."

"I'm not a puppet." Chang Xu said coldly, "I suspect you are. You are eager to seize the leadership position and deliberately guide our ideas for solving the puzzle. It is very suspicious."

"Still want to quibble?" The little man sneered, "You are the only one who has been in contact with Si Qi, who are you if not you?"

The bell rang without warning, overlapping vibrations intertwined with each other, covering the entire island from high in the sky, and it struck nine times unhurriedly.

Lu Li forced a smile, and his voice mixed with the bells added solemnity: "We can't jump to conclusions. Maybe Chang Xu was also deceived by Si Qi, and he is a victim like us."

"The puppeteer is good at acting and calculating people's hearts. He can easily create any face and carry out fraud and planning. The puppet is controlled by him, so naturally he also inherits these abilities."

"The current situation may be calculated by Siqi, so that we can suspect each other and consume the number of people."

These words were said with certainty, and Chang Xu's eyes darkened a little.

He suddenly realized that he could not rule out the suspicion that Qi Si was Xila's man.

In "Rose Manor", Qi Si planned to include him and Lin Chen, and he had the ability to act from beginning to end without letting him see the clues.

How could he be sure that Qi Si's performance this time was not a deliberate disguise and deception? The attitude of despising the Xila Guild might just be an act?

Moreover, in the case of the "Meat-eating" copy, Qi Si is indeed the most suspected...

The short man asked hesitantly: "How can we judge whether a living person is a puppet?"

Lu Li stroked his fingers and said lightly: "The puppet string must be tied to the little finger of the puppet's right hand. Just cut off the little finger and see if it has turned into wood, and it will be clear at a glance."

His voice was neither hurried nor slow, and he did provide a feasible solution. Compared with his life, a little finger seemed to be just an unnecessary sacrifice.

Chang Xu glanced at his right hand, and with a thought, a black paper card condensed out of thin air and slid down.

The pale little finger rolled to the ground, with red edges and a fleshy color as a whole.

Blood flowed out from the wound and dripped onto the ground, covering the dried blood stains left by Lu Li last night.

The short man bent down and looked at his finger on the ground, and smiled awkwardly: "Chang Xu, I'm sorry, we misunderstood you."

Lu Li also smiled bitterly: "The puppeteer is still so good at playing with people's hearts. If I hadn't dealt with him before, I'm afraid he would accidentally hurt our companions again this time."

The players pretended to apologize and condolences, without much real emotion. The decisions made by the group were dispersed to each person, and the remaining responsibilities were very few.

Chang Xu did not comment, as if he could not feel the pain of the wound at all.

He maintained the posture of holding Lu Li hostage and asked calmly: "Can you tell me what happened now?"

Lu Li sighed: "Si Qi killed Ye Linsheng, and it was too late when I reacted. He almost killed me too, but fortunately a prop on Xiao Ye worked and controlled him... I only then realized that he was Xila's puppet."

As he said, he put a prop that looked like papyrus on the table.

Chang Xu picked up the paper with two fingers and glanced at the system prompt that appeared on the surface.

[Name: Hammurabi's Law (Depleted)]

[Type: Item]

[Effect: After suffering a fatal attack and losing life, there is a 10% chance of returning the attack to the source]

[Note: An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth]

Probability again?

Chang Xu felt a flash of inspiration in his mind. He seemed to have found something suspicious, but he couldn't connect it through logic.

Words that were hard to tell true from false resurrected in his memory.

'In the collective decision-making of irrational individuals, the probability of accidentally killing good people is more than half. '

'You may encounter many incomprehensible things next, and I don't expect you to trust me without reservation. '

'Brother Chang, if everyone believes that I am the mastermind, will you believe it? '

The situation is indeed perceptibly weird, and Qi Si seems to have anticipated this.

Should he trust Qi Si and believe that he was misunderstood?

But the two of them had only met twice, and they didn't know each other well...

Chang Xu's mind was in a mess, and his brows were slightly furrowed: "Where is Siqi? I want to go see him."

Lu Li took a deep breath and exhaled, saying: "On the second floor, Ye Linsheng's room."

Chang Xu got the information he wanted, let go of Lu Li, and quickly climbed the stairs.

He returned to his room and reached under the pillow of Qis's bed. The statue of Poseidon was gone.

He felt cold in his heart, and followed his memory and walked into the room that Lu Li mentioned.

The pale body of the long-haired young man lay across the big bed, like a dead fish with its belly turned up. The young man in a white shirt was lying against the corner of the wall, with countless blood-stained silk threads wrapped around his body, showing a weird posture.

Chang Xu dragged a long trail of blood, crossed the bed, walked straight to the corner of the room, and looked down at the body on the ground.

The young man's eyes were dull, his skin had the texture of wood, and there was no human expression from top to bottom. He was like a puppet that had been dead for a long time.

Seeing is believing. All previous doubts and entanglements were finally settled. Chang Xu felt calmer than ever before.

——He was deceived, and the person who deceived him was dead.
