Global Collapse

Chapter 445 Face-to-Face Taunt
At Fatty's insistence, the third person on the dragon boat was Chu Changge.

007 was also put back on her own ship by Gu Mian.

There were only two people on her dragon boat at this time, probably because the second stage had not yet begun.

007's only teammate seemed quite calm, showing no reaction whatsoever to his ship suddenly going out of control and his teammate being taken away.

Because the man was wearing a black cloak-like garment, and even his face was completely covered, Gu Mian could not see his expression. She could only judge his emotions based on his relatively insignificant body movements. Gu Mian only saw him turn his body slightly and seem to glance at Chu Changge.

But then again, this person looks more and more familiar.

At this moment, 007 seemed to only then recognize Gu Mian, and her complexion recovered somewhat: "What's going on here...?"

"The second challenge is a competition to borrow items," Gu Mian glanced at Chu Changge, who had already appeared, "It seems this challenge was quite successful."

007 opened his mouth as if to ask why his dragon boat had gone out of control, but swallowed the words back and asked another question instead: "If catching me is considered a success, then what did you borrow?"

The fat man peeked out furtively and said, "Beautiful lady."

007:"……"

The abnormal speed of the 007 dragon boat had already been noticed by other players who were following the race. The dragon boat was moving at a crazy speed, and it even bumped into the "Doctor's Beautiful Fan Club" boat in the end, which left many players dumbfounded.

It looks like two cheaters are in a secret council.

The two boats paused for a moment before separating.

The dragon boat named Number returned to its normal speed, while the other dragon boat with the strange name, although slower than before, was still moving quite fast.

Gu Mian and the others didn't talk to 007 for long before parting ways. During that time, 007's teammate, who was wearing a black cloak, didn't say a word.

At this moment, the fat man had already moved closer to Gu Mian: "Doctor, Brother Chu, did you see 007's teammate? Doesn't he look familiar?"

Chu Changge pushed up his glasses and remained silent.

Gu Mian stroked her chin: "I've seen his nickname. It's red and it's 'Anonymous.' We met this person at the last event."

"Yes," the fat man recalled, "I saw him at the Lantern Festival event. He was dressed like this too, not a single hair was showing. He had a very nice voice! Oh right, what did he say his name was again?"

Gu Mian recalled the scene from their last meeting: "Xie Bi'an, he said his name was Xie Bi'an."

Last time, she only met this person briefly and didn't exchange more than a few words. If it weren't for the strong sense of adolescent chuunibyou that his appearance exuded, Gu Mian wouldn't have paid any attention to him.

"But how did he become teammates with 007? Is it a coincidence?" The fat man started biting his fingernails. "I think people dressed like that in TV dramas are not good people. They are either villains who survive to the end with strong vitality, or big bad guys who die together with the protagonist in the end. Doctor, you have to be careful."

Gu Mian glanced at Chu Changge, who was sitting quietly at the stern of the boat: "Do you know him?" That person seemed to have given Chu Changge a special look just now.

Chu Changge was looking at the guitar case placed at his feet when he heard this. He raised his eyes and slowly shook his head.

With Xiao Hong and her brother as free laborers, the chubby guy, who had nothing to do, wandered around Chu Changge: "Brother Chu, you know the process of this event, right? We have to pass four levels to get our teammates together and then clear the mines. Who do you think we should choose as our next teammate?"

Actually, there are only two choices now: Xiao Qiao and Liu Ruyan.

Gu Mian distrusted Liu Ruyan, who frequently sneaked into his house to turn on the gas cylinder. If he could, he would definitely take the opportunity to turn on the gas cylinder at Liu Ruyan's house.

Chu Changge remained silent.

Seemingly used to Chu Changge's silence, the fat man didn't insist on waiting for him to speak: "I wonder what the remaining two levels will be like, but the final water minesweeping should be the most difficult."

The fat man felt he had no enjoyment of the game at all.

On the semi-transparent screen in the sky, dragon boats could be seen disappearing from time to time, presumably because they had capsized or been burned by other players.

Even if other players put their hands outside the dragon boat's range, they still have to think twice, for fear that they might be suddenly pulled down by a ghost in the water.

Even if you immerse your head in water to wash your hair on this ship, the things that are supposed to be on your neck will still be there.

Just as the fat man was lamenting his lack of gaming experience, the other players were scrutinizing the real-time match on the semi-transparent screen in the sky with strange expressions.

The "Doctor's Stunning Fan Club" has already surpassed most of the dragon boats and is now ranked in the top 10%.

Its speed has slowed down, but it is still quite uniform.

It's important to know that rowing is not a very stable activity. Whether other dragon boats are ranked high or low, their speed will vary, and sometimes they may even stop to rest.

But this ship was the only one that was in a very stable condition; even though its speed was like a mad dog in the early stages, it was still moving at a constant speed.

It gave the impression that this wasn't a dragon boat race, but rather a cruise ship that had wandered in. However, when the race started, the players all saw that there were no cruise ships participating this time.

Countless players stared at the dragon boat, now stained with blood and tears and offering no gaming experience, eager to see its true nature.

Unfortunately, people just like to travel to remote places.

Sometimes it traces an alluring S-shape on the water's surface, and sometimes it runs around aimlessly like a headless fly.

Fortunately, the dragon boat didn't draw a "B" shaped curve, otherwise all the players would have been so angry they would have spat blood.
