I'm bound to the World-Destroying Witch

Chapter 95. The Opportunity to Get Rich Quick

In a pitch-black world, there were only two faint lights. Masked figures No. 11 and No. 17 stood facing each other on a cylindrical platform.

"The plan? The plan is simple~"

Number 17 chuckled, “According to the intelligence I’ve received, the extraordinary criminal ‘Wen Zaiye’ is trapped in ‘Mijia Calamity’ and can’t get out. Mu Qingtong’s Seventh Squad will enter the Calamity tonight to surround and kill Wen Zaiye. All we need to do is knock this little beauty unconscious when she’s alone.”

"Hehe~ Owl, if you weren't in Area 51, I could go by myself~~"

Number 17's tone became increasingly lewd. Xia Feng rolled his eyes. "You're going alone? I'm afraid you'll get chopped up by Mu Shen and fed to the dogs. Wouldn't all your life points be wasted?"
"By the way, how many life points do you have left?" Xia Feng asked.

"Why are you asking this?" Number 17 immediately became alert.

"I currently have 26 health points." Xia Feng smiled slightly. "Sincerity for sincerity, I'd like to make a deal with you."

26 points?! Number 17 was startled, his eyes narrowing slightly: "It seems you really did kill Number 10."

"It's obvious."

"Tsk tsk, as expected, hunting in real life is still the most profitable way to earn points."

He clicked his tongue in amazement, “I still have 19 health points left. Let me put it this way, I haven’t bought any skill cards in the first three rounds, but I have to buy skills in the fourth round of evolution. If you want to borrow health points from me, I can only say no.”

Xia Feng tapped the table, seemingly lost in thought, and asked, "Which skill card do you want to buy?"

"Is that even a question?" Number 17 chuckled softly. "Right now, all the players are eyeing that B-grade spirit garment, and anyone with a bit of money is probably trying to snatch it."

"But you only have 19 points, is that enough? According to my estimate, B-grade spirit robes will be called up to at least 40 points."

"Of course it's not enough, that's why we're trying to find a solution." Number 17 pouted.

“I can lend you 20 points,” Xia Feng said directly.

Number 17: "Huh?"

Xia Feng glanced at his 26 health points. According to the rules, if he were killed by player number 17, player number 17 could only inherit his cards, not his health points. Therefore, he could only transfer the health points directly to the other party via bank transfer.
“I’ll give you 20 points. After you win the B-grade spirit garment, you just need to share it with me.”

Number 17 immediately understood Xia Feng's meaning: he wanted to jointly purchase a Class B vehicle with him. It was indeed a good idea.

But then he looked at him with disbelief, narrowing his eyes: "Aren't you afraid I'll change my mind?"

"Going back on your word?" Xia Feng asked doubtfully, then replied earnestly, "I believe you!"

Number 17: "."

"I've transferred it to you." Xia Feng's tone was sincere and without hesitation, like a nouveau riche encountering a pig-butchering scam; if the other party asks for a million, he will transfer a million.

[Ding~ Player #11 has transferred 20 health points to your account. The funds have been automatically transferred.]

When Number 17 saw the message pop up on the panel, his eyes widened in surprise.

Life Points: (19+20)39

"Gulp—" He subconsciously swallowed, feeling a little dizzy. 39 points! He had saved up for three rounds of money through frugality, and it had doubled in an instant!
Xia Feng: "Oh, right, I have 6 HP left. You can use the predation card to hit me once during the basic predation phase to gain another 5 HP. Then I'll enter the nature reserve."

The meaning of "Nature Reserve" is: players who have been preyed upon during the 'Basic Predation Phase' will enter the reserve—where they will no longer be preyed upon. The purpose is presumably to prevent a single player from being targeted and attacked by multiple players simultaneously.

Hearing Xia Feng's sincere invitation, No. 17 was stunned. If he could earn another 5 points, that would be 44 life points!
The sudden wealth made him a little dizzy. He looked up at Xia Feng with even more suspicion: "By the way, are you going to participate in this mission to capture Mu Qingtong?" "Of course, it's perfect timing to run into you." Xia Feng smiled.

"My identity is meant to restrain you. Aren't you afraid I'll hunt you down and kill you in reality?"

"Hunting?" Xia Feng asked in confusion, blinking, his tone becoming sincere and earnest again, "I believe you!"

"."

Number 17 was completely baffled as to what Xia Feng was thinking. How could he trust a complete stranger like him so much?

"Could there be some kind of conspiracy?" He was puzzled, but the life points were already in his account, and the initiative was completely in his hands. Even if Number 11 killed him, he couldn't take away the points in his account.

So now there's only one possibility left: Number 11. Do you really believe he won't betray you?!
Although he had a feeling that No. 11 was trying to hook him, he couldn't figure out why the other party would do it. All the life points were transferred to him, so what was the point of hooking him?

There might still be some risks I'm unaware of? Number 17 thought to himself, but the potential rewards far outweighed the risks!
The two then discussed the details of the operation and the meeting place. Before ending the deal, Number 17 asked again, "Do you really trust me?"

"Of course, I believe you!" Xia Feng gave a thumbs up and grinned. The next moment, his figure and the platform disappeared.

Number 17 stared at the dark, empty space ahead, remained silent for a long time, and finally couldn't hold back any longer, so he clutched his stomach, bent over, and burst into laughter.

His arrogant and mocking laughter echoed in the dark space.

"How incredibly stupid!" He laughed for a while, then slowly stood up, a mocking glint in his eyes, and looked down at the tablet.

[HP: 39 points]

"This is the fourth round. In the basic predation phase, you can get 5 points for a successful predation. In the hunting and predation phase, the points are doubled to 10. Killing number 11 will also give you an extra 6 points for the kill."

His eyes gleamed, and he grinned. "That means I can get another 5 + 16, 21 health points from number 11! 39 + 21, that's a full 60 points!"

"60 health points!" Number 17 murmured excitedly. The thought of becoming rich overnight made his scalp tingle and his adrenaline surge.

"Tsk, I wish I could meet idiots like this every day."

He scoffed and shook his head, "But before that, we have to complete the task assigned by our superiors first, as for Mu Qingtong..."

"Hehe~~" He smirked, a wicked smile playing on his lips, his eyes flashing with a sinister light.

"when--"

The deafening chimes echoed.

"The free trading phase is over. Please calm down and prepare for the basic predation phase."

The masked man, wearing a black top hat, tossed a 37-sided die into the air, where black and white light swirled.

Next, as promised, Number 17 used Predator Card Number 11 to prey on Xia Feng. Xia Feng glanced at the panel and saw that he had 6 points of health, but 5 points were deducted, leaving him on the verge of death and entering the nature reserve.

【HP: 1】

He smiled. Now all he needed to do was find player number 17 and take him down!

Then, replace number 17!
