It's a hell game, who can still be a human being?

Chapter 331 The Desperate Liu Zheng

"do not know."

Player 3 shook his head.

"There was no boarding battle at all. The ship we were on was sunk by pirates from a distance. You and I can swim, but we were knocked unconscious by the shells. No. 1 and No. 4 couldn't swim and drowned directly. They were rescued by the pirates."

He continued.

"Swimming is not one of my skills?"

Liu Zheng said.

"Didn't you click on sports? The rules of this module are relatively simple, and many skills are general. For example, sports include a series of sports-related skills such as swimming, running, climbing, and jumping."

Player 3 explained.

"Oh, so that's how it is. That's really simple."

he sighed.

When he was running in a group in real life, let alone such general skills, even running had to be divided into long-distance running, short-distance running, and obstacle running.

"That is to say, we don't know if we can win in a fight?"

Liu Zheng continued.

"That's about right. Of course, judging from the previous battle, we are not weak. At least we can definitely defeat the pirate minions in a one-on-two situation. For main output players like you and Player 1, a one-on-three situation shouldn't be a problem either."

Player 4 said.

"So how many pirates are there on this ship?"

he asked again.

"We saw about a dozen, but based on the size of the ship, there should be about thirty."

Player 4 said.

"Did you judge this based on your real-life knowledge or based on the character's skills?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"It's based on the character's skills."

Player No. 4 looked at him with admiration.

His question is actually very crucial, because no matter how close this module is to reality, it is still a game in the end.

Compared with real-life knowledge, it is more reliable to use game skills to make judgments.

"What about the battle part?"

Liu Zheng asked again.

"Have you ever played a chess game?"

Player 4 asked.

"Played with it."

The game of war chess is similar to playing chess, but instead of one person moving once, each chess piece moves once.

"It's similar to a war chess game, but the rules are much simpler. As long as we don't mess up, at most three enemies can attack one of us at the same time in each round."

Player 4 said.

"In that case, as long as the elite monsters are not too powerful and the dice lady doesn't cause trouble, it's possible to win by forcing a breakout."

He said immediately.

"Yes. Otherwise we wouldn't have listed the escape route."

Player No. 3 nodded.

"But there is a problem. Even if we succeed in breaking out, how do we leave the pirate ship?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"I saw a small boat behind this ship, and player 1 chose the driving skill."

Player 3 said.

In real life, sailing, especially long ocean voyages, is not enough just to know how to sail. But for a group game, all you have to do is roll the dice and get the result.

"But the pirate ships will definitely catch up with us. We won't be able to bear it if they ram us with their ships or bombard us with cannons, right?"

he questioned.

"So, it's best to blow up the pirate ship's ammunition depot before leaving."

Player 1 spoke up.

As long as the ammunition depot is blown up, not only will the pirate ships no longer be able to bombard them, but they will most likely be unable to move at all.

"Good idea. Now the question is, where is the ammunition depot?"

Liu Zheng shrugged.

"This depends on you. Based on your words just now, I think it will be no problem for you to find out the location of the ammunition depot."

Player 3 encouraged.

"Hey, even though I'm really capable, you can't rely on me for everything, right?"

He said dissatisfiedly.

It is one thing for Liu Zheng to be willing to do more work, but it is another thing for others to ask him to do more work.

He didn't sign the contract, so he called the courier to run away, and these three guys were all in trouble.

"The more capable you are, the more work you will do. When you become the MVP, the higher the reward you will get."

Player No. 4 chimed in.

"Come on, I've stopped eating this kind of cake a long time ago. To tell you the truth, I didn't sign a contract, and there are ways to force my way out of the board game hall. At worst, I'll just avoid board game halls in the future."

"If you want me to work harder, then give me some benefits now."

Liu Zheng said loudly.

"what do you want?"

The three players looked at each other for a while, and Player 3 asked.

"What can you give me?"

He asked rhetorically.

"Trading is prohibited in the board game hall unless you are willing to contact us outside."

Player 3 said.

"Forget it. You guys are willing but I am not."

Liu Zheng shook his head.

His network of relationships is already complicated enough, so he'd better not expand it further.

"Then we can only trade the items in the module."

Player 3 said.

"That's okay too."

Liu Zheng nodded.

In fact, he didn't really want anything, after all, he also had to pass the level.

He said this just to prevent other players from taking advantage of him.

"agree."

"agree."

Player 1 and Player 4 thought about it and didn't object.

Although you will not really die in a group game unless you fail to complete the game, players with higher completion ratings can get more rewards, both in and out of the game.

Putting aside personal ability and the luck of rolling the dice, having more game props will naturally be more conducive to performance.

However, since Liu Zheng's performance is so outstanding, it is worthwhile to exchange game props for a smoother clearance.

As for whether what he said was true or not, it doesn’t really matter anymore.

After all, no matter whether Liu Zheng will die after passing the level, the three of them will definitely die anyway.

Of course, even though the communication is going well, it is impossible to make a deal right now.

Once the rope is broken, all the previous preparations will be in vain, and the other two routes will also come to an end.

After waiting for a while, the pirate came back with Mike.

"I told the captain, and he said it's okay for you to join us, but you have to do something first."

He threw Mike aside and said to Liu Zheng.

"You say."

he said respectfully.

"Kill your three companions."

The pirate said in a grim tone.

"Ah, it's a bit of a waste to kill them. Why don't we sell them to slave traders? We can get some money to buy wine and meat for our brothers."

Liu Zheng was stunned for a moment and said.

The other three players also tensed their muscles, ready to break free from the ropes.

"The captain said that we only take the most vicious people on our ship. How can we prove that you are a vicious person if we don't kill them? Now there is no ship for us to rob, so we can only kill them."

Said the pirate.

"I see. Sorry, I can't do that."

He shook his head.

"Oh, didn't you always say that you always wanted to be a pirate? How come you can't even kill a few people? I think everything you just said was a lie."

The pirate sneered.

"The pirate I yearn for is fierce to the enemy and warm to friends. Although the three of them are not my friends, they are also my companions. I can't kill them with my own hands. If I really can do it, won't the captain feel a chill on his back when he stands in front of me?"

Liu Zheng said seriously.

"Well, what you said makes sense."

The pirate thought for a moment and said.

Although they were all pirates, all the talk of enthusiasm, loyalty, and righteousness was nonsense, but they still had to abide by the basic order. Moreover, as a large group, the pirates were naturally scheming against each other, and they wished that many of the other parties would die so that they could share some of the spoils.

But there is still some real friendship between individuals or small groups.

"Besides, you don't have to kill them to show your utmost cruelty."

Liu Zheng said.

"Oh, is there any other way?"

the pirate asked curiously.

"Isn't there another person? I have participated in many tortures and slaughters. I will make sure he dies in agony."

He raised his chin towards Mike and said with a smile.

"hiss!"

The pirate gasped.

Using this kind of torture on a child is not only extremely cruel, it is simply insane. Even pirates like them would not do such a thing. At most, they would use it to vent their sexual desires.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Hearing that Liu Zheng was going to torture him to death, Mike struggled violently.

Everyone then noticed that his mouth was blocked by a piece of dirty cloth.

"Well, Captain, is this token of my loyalty enough?"

Liu Zheng said unmoved.

"It's enough, but no."

The pirate shook his head.

"why?"

"Because we still need to exchange this kid for a ransom. This kid's family is said to be very rich. Before we get the ransom, we still have to treat him well."

The pirate chuckled.

As for what happens after receiving the ransom, that is another matter.

"Oh, I know that."

Liu Zheng nodded.

"You know? Did this kid tell you?"

the pirate wondered.

"Yes, Captain, we have also made an agreement with him to help him get redeemed smoothly, and he will redeem us together with us."

"Didn't you say you wanted to join us? Why are you discussing this with him again? Which of your words is true, kid?"

The pirate looked at him suspiciously.

"Everything is true. We should always be prepared for everything. If the captain is willing to accept us, then we will certainly work wholeheartedly for our pirates."

Liu Zheng smiled.

"You are so strong and smart, I really envy you."

The pirate stared at him and said.

"Behind a successful boss there must be many capable subordinates. No matter what we were like before, we will all follow your lead in the future."

"Really? All three of them think so?"

The pirate glanced at the other three players and said.

"Of course, come and call me boss with me."

Liu Zheng turned around and shouted.

"Boss!"

The three players shouted in unison.

"Humph, who knows if you are sincere or not."

Although the pirate said this, he still had a big smile on his face.

If he could really subdue these four men, the position of captain might be a long way off, but the positions of first and second mates could be fixed.

"Boss, what if this kid tells others about us?"

Liu Zheng looked at Mike and said.

"Well, this is a problem. You, don't scream, or I can't kill you, but I can still make you suffer a little."

The pirate grinned lewdly at Mike.

Obviously, the suffering he was talking about was not just physical pain.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Mike nodded repeatedly in fear.

After the intimidation, the pirate took out the cloth ball from his mouth.

"You heard what we said just now, right?"

the pirate asked.

"Yes. No, no, I heard nothing."

Mike immediately changed his tone.

"It doesn't matter if you heard it. I tell you the truth, after the captain gets the ransom, he will probably throw you on the sampan and let you row to the shore by yourself."

Said the pirate.

Mike's face turned pale when he heard this. With the sea conditions in the Devil's Sea, there was no way he could return to the shore alive.

"But if you are good and obedient, I can help persuade the captain to send you back to shore."

Said the pirate.

"Thank you, boss, thank you, boss."

Mike shouted like Liu Zheng and the others.

"Yeah. What's your name kid?"

The pirate asked Liu Zheng.

"Boss, my name is Wozniacki Shuode. What's yours?"

"Just call me Jackma."

The pirate replied.

"Okay, Boss Jackma."

Liu Zheng shouted respectfully.

"Alright, alright, don't shout like that after you go out, so that others won't misunderstand you."

The pirate reminded.

"Okay, Jack Ma Boss. No problem, Jack Ma Boss."

"Boy, if your fighting skills are as good as your mouth, I might be the one calling you boss."

The pirate sighed.

"Okay, come with me, the captain wants to see you."

"Boss Jack Ma, I can't move this."

Liu Zheng smiled bitterly.

"Can't I just untie it for you?"

The pirate said as he walked towards him.

When he did this, everyone immediately became nervous again.

The pirate quickly walked up to Liu Zheng and drew the scimitar from his waist.

The brightly polished blade reflected a cold light, and then chopped down fiercely.

Liu Zheng's muscles tightened first and then relaxed, because the machete did not cut his body, but cut his rope.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief but was also a little confused. Where did this pirate get his confidence from?
After all, Liu Zheng's size alone is enough to give him an absolute advantage over the pirates.

Soon, they found out why.

Before Liu Zheng could open his mouth, a golden belt stretched out into a golden rope and bound his hands and feet.

Even though it was just a perfunctory way of tying him up, he felt as if his whole body was welded shut and he couldn't move.

"Magic props!"

Several players looked at each other and were glad that they did not choose to break out directly.

Being able to give such powerful props to his subordinates, Captain Flamingo may have more than one.

"Wow, you're really heavy."

The pirate dragged Liu Zheng laboriously towards the upper deck.

"How about you loosen my legs and let me walk?"

He said flatteringly.

"You wish. Untie your legs so you can kick my ass? Besides, I can't control this thing."

The pirates finally got him onto the deck, sweating profusely from exhaustion.

At this time, there were more than a dozen pirates standing on the deck, some were looking out, some were chatting, and some were fishing.

Hearing the noise, they all turned their eyes over.

Only a person wearing a pink captain's hat and a pink coat did not look back, but stood at the bow and looked into the distance.

"Captain, I have brought you the ship and the people."

the pirate shouted, breathing heavily.

After hearing his words, the man finally turned around.

Under the pink curly hair is a face that is difficult to tell whether it is male or female.
