Chapter 161 Death, even death is possible
"But..." Xiao Jie opened his mouth as if to say something.
But those players couldn't remove their abilities because you killed the bomb monster.
"I know what you're going to say," Su Wu interrupted Xiao Jie. "Even without me, they wouldn't be able to catch the bomb monster's debunking ability on their own."
"That only proves their fate," he scoffed, his tone dismissive.
It has nothing to do with him who dies, whether it's Gon, Killua, Hisoka, or Maro.
Anyone can die; to him, no one is immortal.
"But..." Xiao Jie wanted to say something more.
Su Wu had already lost her patience.
"Don't annoy me." He stared coldly at Xiao Jie, his voice calm, devoid of any murderous intent or anger, and the corners of his mouth were even turned up as if he were smiling.
It looks more terrifying than when they are killing someone.
"...Hey, Gon, stop talking." Killua grabbed Gon's hand, his expression unconsciously becoming wary.
This guy is in danger right now.
His instinct even wanted him to get away quickly, to escape far away, and out of the other person's sight.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Gorenu stood behind Xiao Jie, vaguely showing a confrontation.
"So, what are the conditions for getting the last card?" Su Wu ignored them, and simply summoned her card collection book, looking at the cards inside thoughtfully.
"It has been detected that a player has already obtained 99 cards. A quiz competition open to all players will be held soon, where one hundred questions will be asked about the specified cards. The player with the highest score will receive card number 0, the [Ruler's Blessing]."
"The Q&A session will begin later."
The voice of the woman who explained the rules to the players, which they had heard when they logged into the game, rang out.
Su Wu's expression turned extremely ugly.
The final challenge is a quiz? One hundred questions about specific Pokémon cards...
Ha, he almost always stole his cards. He never actually did any of the quests properly and doesn't know much about the background of most of the cards. He's lucky if he gets a passing grade.
I'm just one card away from clearing the game... I'm so annoyed.
Just then, a group of players used the "Companion" ability to arrive beside them.
One white light after another appeared, and soon more than a dozen players appeared.
Ah ha, a bunch of suicidal guys have arrived?
I'm in a bad mood anyway, let's kill him.
"Don't be nervous, we're just here to make a deal with you. If we get the last card, we're prepared to sell it to you for 2.5 billion..." the newly appeared player said nervously, speaking very quickly.
I was afraid that if I spoke even a second too late, I would be seen as a hostile enemy.
Although they really weren't exactly good people.
But what's wrong with wanting to make money?!
"Okay." Su Wu readily agreed to their suggestion.
He must be the first to complete the game; no other endings will be accepted.
Gon stared at the other person thoughtfully, then turned to look at Killua.
"Now, let's begin the quiz."
Question 1: What is the name of the elder who provided clues for the "A Small Forest" card?
After hearing the question, Su Wu looked at the options that appeared on the card collecting book and fell into deep thought.
[A dense forest of one square meter]? Stolen. What elder? Never seen him before.
Besides, even if you've seen him, who would remember the name of a quest NPC? He's an elder, and he sounds like an old man. Who would remember his name?
Ha, let's get started.
A full hundred questions left the players scratching their heads and racking their brains.
"Ninety points..." Su Wu leaned back, gazing at the sky, lost in thought.
According to his estimate, he could probably get 90 points.
This is the first time in my life I've gotten a score other than perfect, haha.
While it's convenient to quickly acquire cards by stealing them, you'll be completely lost when you reach the final level.
This is a balancing act specifically designed to counter players like them who take shortcuts.
There's really no way around it; players who cheat will be targeted in any game.
He only got 90 points because Cang ran around everywhere, going directly to the card trigger locations to find the answers.
After the Q&A session, the final winner was announced.
"The highest scorer in this round of Q&A is Hill, with a score of ninety."
Ah, as expected... um?
"Ninety points, and you got first place?" Su Wu suddenly sat up, looking at the people around her with a suspicious gaze.
Seriously? They got first place with this?
How should I put it... I can't feel proud at all.
A bird appeared above Su Wu's head carrying a card, then flapped its wings and flew away after dropping the card.
It is not a blessing from the ruler, but an invitation from the ruler.
Unsurprisingly, this is a prerequisite for obtaining the final card.
You need to go to the castle with the invitation and meet the so-called ruler to get the last card.
"Gon..." Killua looked at Gon with concern.
"...There's nothing I can do, I still lost." Xiao Jie sighed deeply, head down, his tone somewhat helpless.
If you can't be the first to clear the level, you won't be able to get news of Jin...
"I want to try, even if it might kill me, I want to try." He suddenly stood up and walked up to Su Wu.
"Whoa, are you trying to steal my card?" Su Wu looked at Xiao Jie in surprise.
Things seem to be getting interesting.
"Let's have a match. If I win, you have to give me the last card." Xiao Jie said with a determined look after taking a deep breath.
"...I don't have time to play childish games with you." Su Wu's face fell instantly, and she waved her hand impatiently.
It's that game of conceding or refusing to concede again, isn't it?
The other party said the same thing when they fought the Explosion Demon: whoever surrendered would have to hand over their card collection book or something.
Like an unkillable cockroach, they refuse to admit defeat and won't give up until they achieve their goal. As a bystander, it's quite amusing to watch, but if I encountered someone like that myself, just thinking about it would be incredibly annoying.
Just then, two more white meteors fell from the sky.
Two players with sinister smiles and greedy eyes suddenly appeared and stared at the invitation in Su Wu's hand.
"Hand over your card collection book, or else..." Before they could finish speaking, they were attacked from the shadows, as if sliced into pieces by the blade of life and death.
Before he could even scream, blood splattered everywhere. In an instant, the entire place fell silent, everyone trembling with fear.
"Idiots." Su Wu didn't even look at them, nor did she pay attention to Xiao Jie's outstretched hand trying to stop her, and her figure disappeared from the spot.
Kong also picked up Maro and followed.
Xiao Jie looked at the cards in his card collection book with a determined expression.
Using the term "fellow traveler" allows you to appear next to the other person.
"...That guy really will kill you." Killua saw through Gon's thoughts and couldn't help but say.
"The gap between your strength and his is no longer the same as the gap between you and the Bomber."
"Even ten bomb-wielding monsters might not be able to handle him," Bisky advised with a serious expression.
But they also knew Xiao Jie's personality.
If the other party wants to do something, they will definitely do it.
Thinking this, Bisky knocked out Gon.
Completely unprepared and caught off guard, Xiao Jie was knocked unconscious and fell to the ground.
"Hey, you..." Killua looked at Bisky, who had suddenly made a move, with displeasure.
"Are you going to send him to his death?" Bisky asked, and Killua fell silent.
If Xiao Jie were awake, he would support Xiao Jie and even accompany Xiao Jie to challenge that guy.
At worst, I'll just die alongside that willful guy.
But Xiao Jie was knocked unconscious by Bisky...
"We're in for a headache now that he's awake," Killua said, rubbing his forehead in exasperation.
Hopefully, that guy will leave the game before Xiao Jie wakes up, otherwise...
