Chapter 25 Enemies meet on a narrow road
In her previous life, thanks to this person, Jiang Ran suffered quite a bit in the last-class carriage.

At that time, the second instance had just ended, and Jiang Ran had a bad reputation. Many people who had never seen her wished they could kill her.

She tried desperately to hide her whereabouts, but Xu Yunxuan's "righteous" sharing of her location in the chat lobby completely exposed her.

Didn't those people in the last-class carriage ever think that if Jiang Ran could really do those things, why would she be in the same carriage as them?

No, they know better than anyone else.

But that doesn't stop them from taking pleasure in the suffering of another person, especially a woman who seems powerless to fight back.

The best among them was this scarred man.

He even crowdfunded a live stream of the last-class carriages and then asked players in the group chat to come up with torturous ideas.

This idea completely ignited a sinful frenzy.

Even if their own lives are hanging by a thread, it doesn't stop some people from spending a few life points to see the miserable state of others and vent their frustrations.

Unfortunately, Jiang Ran did not want to do as they wished.

After experiencing two brutal trials, she was no longer the pampered girl she once was.

She used weakness and tears to gain a fleeting opportunity, and then used the weapon she obtained from the previous instance to kill the scarred man.

However, the scarred man's death did not end this evil farce; instead, it excited the passengers in the "premium carriages" even more.

Xu Yunxuan was the most extreme example; any action that caused Jiang Ran pain became a source of his pleasure.

They threw out all sorts of supplies, props, and even lives to add to the "carnival."

Until the entire last-class carriage became a complete hell.

Finally, it was a train announcement that it would be merging with other trains, which forcibly brought this "sinful feast" to an end.

Jiang Ran closed her eyes, and it felt as if she had returned to that blood-stained prison, where even what she thought was salvation was just another abyss.

I was planning to wait until the second instance was finished before going to the last-class carriage to find them, but they unexpectedly came to me on their own.

The scarred man wasn't stupid; he naturally knew that players who managed to escape unscathed from the first dungeon usually had something to rely on.

After all, many people in the chat lobby had previously discussed the information about beta testers that the "Black Silk Lady" had mentioned.

For ordinary players, the term "beta tester" means more health, more resources, and better luck.

They would also unconsciously think: If I had been the one who got the beta test spot, I would be living a better life than that idiot Miss Black Silk. She just got lucky, didn't she?

The scarred man was one of them.

He had used up most of his hard-earned health points to treat his wounds, and now he couldn't even afford a ticket for a Class D carriage.

But he had a knife that had been taken from a box.

Believing he had a physical advantage and a weapon, he started thinking about stealing some health points from others.

The reason the scarred man focused his attention on Jiang Ran was precisely because her act of wrapping herself up so tightly was seen by the scarred man as a sign of guilt.

If a woman has the ability to clear the dungeon, why does she need to be so sneaky?
This can only mean one thing: she was able to clear the dungeon purely by luck—for example, she was also a legendary beta tester!

If I just rob her of a sum of money, wouldn't I become rich?
Seeing Jiang Ran stand there speechless after being called, the scarred man became even more certain of his guess. He pulled out a watermelon knife as long as Jiang Ran's forearm and said in a rough voice, "Don't be afraid, we don't want to do anything. Judging from the direction you're going, you must have a lot of life points, right?"

“Let each of you lend us 100… no, 500, so we can experience what it’s like to buy a train ticket.”

The two men who gathered around shared the same thought as the scarred man: the woman's cautious demeanor practically screamed "easy prey."

One of them pulled out a dagger and pointed it at Jiang Ran: "Do you have any food? Can you lend me some?"

If Jiang Ran knew what they were thinking, she would be speechless.

She whispered, "But what if I don't have that many health points?"

The scarred man exchanged a glance with the two men next to him and then laughed out loud: "It's okay, you come with us to the last class carriage, we'll take good care of you."

Jiang Ran nodded: "Don't hurt me, I'll go with you."

Although he felt things were going too smoothly, the scarred man thought to himself that if Jiang Ran, such a "weak woman," had a weapon to save her life, she would have taken it out long ago.

Since they're willing to go with them obediently, it means they lack the confidence to deal with the three of them.

Once we reach the last carriage where might makes right, won't they be the ones calling the shots?
After buying her A-class seat, Jiang Ran followed the three men to the last-class carriage without a care in the world.

Tickets for the superior carriages allow unrestricted access to the lower-class carriages, but passengers in the lower-class carriages are either "included in the territory" like Xu Yunxuan did before, or are simply blocked outside the dividing line.

As soon as they entered the carriage, the scarred man pressed his knife against Jiang Ran's waist impatiently: "I know you have a lot of supplies on you, so give us some food and drink to tide us over. Otherwise..."

Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Ran grabbed the hand holding the knife.

The next second, a sickening cracking sound rang out from her wrist.

The scarred man was shocked by Jiang Ran's strength and tried to pull his hand away.

Jiang Ran's hand tightened like an iron clamp, eventually snapping the wrist of the hand holding the knife!

The scarred man screamed in agony, struggling futilely while roaring, "What are you looking at? Get him!!"

The other two were completely unaware of why the roles had been reversed, but seeing the scarred man's pained face, they also realized something was wrong.

The man with the dagger lunged at Jiang Ran, but Jiang Ran deftly pulled the scarred man aside and drew her gun.

The moment they saw the gun, the three men's expressions changed drastically!
But it was all too late.

Jiang Ran didn't even need to aim; her skill card allowed her bullets to land precisely on the knees of the three men.

The scarred man knelt down in front of Jiang Ran, begging for mercy with snot and tears streaming down his face: "Grandma, I was wrong, I was bewitched, I'm a bastard, please, just let me go!"

Jiang Ran smiled and stepped on his broken wrist bone: "Not good. But I can give you a chance to save yourself."

Despite the excruciating pain, the scarred man forced a ferocious smile and nodded hastily.

The woman's laughing voice sounded like a devil's whisper to the three men, but the situation was now beyond their control.

Jiang Ran, holding a gun, pointed at the players in the corner of the carriage who were staring at them: "I'm giving you a chance to earn supplies, so make the most of it."
