"Well, hello... Looks like you just had a near-death experience?"

Bai Yu finally smiled again and waved to the person in front of him as if he was greeting an old friend.

“You, you you…!!”

The ascetic, temporarily freed from pain, gradually realized what he was about to experience.

"Um……"

"There are still so many healing ampoules available."

Bai Yu flicked a new syringe in his hand with his fingers and smiled.

"That should be enough to pry open your mouth."

"..."

Under the dim light of K Company's emergency lighting, a tragedy like slaughtering a pig occurred.

Bai Yu constantly switches between the identities of a butcher and a doctor.

Besides the screams, the ascetic's constantly newly born organs gradually piled up into a small mountain amidst Bai Yu's heartfelt actions...

"I, I, I... instructions..."

The pain of countless reincarnations seemed to have finally defeated the ascetic in front of him.

He couldn't even utter a complete string of sentences now, and even the effect of the healing ampoule on his subsequent treatment was not as good as Bai Yu expected.

His mind seems to be breaking down, and he's gradually losing the ability to grow a proper arm or organs, becoming more and more like a Cronenberg-style monster.

"Tsk..."

"Failed."

Looking at the ascetic in front of him, Bai Yu was visibly unhappy.

Why didn't he choose an agent of higher rank and more knowledgeable to interrogate first?

That's of course because, in the Index Finger's command hierarchy and system, the higher you go, the more devout these lunatics become to their orders (religion).

With such a morbid belief, Bai Yu knew that even he would find it difficult to pry any useful information from these fanatics...

'ha……'

'Let's do it again.'

'Even if this could be considered as the ideological stamp that the index finger puts on the lower-level personnel.'

Bai Yu calmly and somewhat unconvincedly walked towards the puddle in front of him, where there were still many 'healing ampoules'...

"Let him go."

But a voice that was both yin and yang came from the broken corridor in the distance.

The newcomer seemed to want to stop Bai Yu from doing such evil things.

And he...did do it.

After hearing this, Bai Yu's usual neat and tidy movements really stopped. Now, he just turned his head to look at the source of the sound.

And then, well…

Bai Yu himself did not expect this.

He'll be here.

"Hello, Yang Chuanling."

"Are you going to choose to confess on his behalf?"

……

The person standing in front of Bai Yu is called——

Yang Bismok.

The index-finger caller's condition didn't look good, to say the least.

His body was covered in blood and ashes, as if he had just finished fighting with something tough.

"If the content of the instructions does not prohibit speaking the instructions, then... it is permitted."

Yang didn't care about Bai Yu's scrutinizing gaze, he just spoke softly while panting.

Bai Yu didn't say anything for a while.

Ok……

At least after finishing the game experience of "Ruined Library", he still had some respect for the messenger of the index finger.

Yang's parents died under the order of the directive, and he himself was semi-forced to join the index finger in a future order.

Well, in other words, maybe it’s because of these past experiences…

Compared to most of the Index Finger members, this young man named "Yang" not only did not have the idea of blindly following orders, but he even had some resistance and disgust towards orders.

He rarely kills people, and if the order does not contain a death order, he will even give the person who receives the order some advice on how to avoid tragedy as much as possible after delivering the order.

He...maybe he is a kind child.

But in the city... kindness is undoubtedly a rare "inferior quality".

Perhaps it is because of these things that he will become distorted when he learns the truth about the order in the future...

"Go ahead and tell me the content of the instructions first."

Bai Yu did not show his inner regret on the outside, but simply placed the bloody butcher knife directly on the cheek of the poor ascetic.

He wanted to believe that Yang's personality in the game hadn't changed... After all, if there had been any changes, Yang, who had just been through a fierce battle, actually had no need to expose himself to him for a suffering colleague.

Therefore, if Yang opened his mouth to give an answer, he would indeed cut it off with one blow and completely end the suffering of this unfortunate guy.

"..."

"The third directive."

Yang hesitated for a few seconds, and finally spoke slowly.

"Order all the Index Fingers in the southern part of W Nest to destroy all the evil hearts lurking in this sinful land..."

That is to say.

Are there any other Shadow Orbs around here?

When Bai Yu heard what Yang said, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. After all, combined with the corrupted land in front of him, he had already guessed the meaning of most of the instructions.

It seems that the first shadow bead was broken by Index Finger and his gang.

No wonder the miner got the Star Power Bracelet instead of the guaranteed musket...

"How many such operation teams do you have on your index finger?"

Bai Yu asked again.

"Six... maybe three left now."

"Well, who made you like this?"

"I don't know, maybe it's a monster transformed by K Company."

Yang's voice was hesitant when he answered this second question.

After all, the people who attacked them actually included a certain black lady and another black gentleman.

But didn’t Bai Yu hear it?

Yang looked up again at the 'enemy' who had slaughtered so many of his colleagues, but all he encountered was a slashing blow from his sword, causing his brains to splatter everywhere...

Bai Yu turned his gaze towards Yang again.

Then after a few seconds, both sides nodded.

In the end, they chose to put away their weapons...

"You won't attack me, a wanted city star? That's really unusual for a high-ranking finisher."

Yang stood by the pool of healing ampoules, but seemed to have no intention of using the liquid inside.

"First, I can't really be considered the one who finishes things off. Second, I can still distinguish between direct enemies and potential friends."

"is it?"

301

Chapter 301 It’s really disgusting.

enemy?

friend?

Looking at his reflection in the healing ampoule, Yang quieted down.

The messenger of the index finger actually didn't quite understand where Bai Yu's inexplicable kindness towards him came from.

but……

It is true.

If he looked at it from his own perspective, he actually didn't have much hatred towards the cleaner in front of him.

……

This is not to say that there is no bond between him and the Index Finger Ascetics.

But he knew that their index finger was not a good person.

Since Index Finger can control other people's lives with such a ridiculous existence as orders, then if they are killed by others at some point, they naturally have nothing to say...

"You should leave too, Finisher."

After a few seconds, Yang's gaze finally left the transparent pool in front of him.

He packed his clothes with one hand, turned around and walked towards the entrance of the ruins of K Company's branch.

"That guy is coming. You may be strong, but that guy seems to be immortal."

"That rascal?"

After hearing what Yang said, Bai Yu became the one who felt confused.

"Hmm, a worm-like monster...has been haunting the ruins and mining areas of K Company lately."

"..."

"what happened to you?"

"It's okay. I just felt a little stressed when I heard the word worm."

Bai Yu stood where he was, his originally calm expression now frozen.

"Damn it, it won't be a direct world swallowing."

"But... there's not even a system prompt?"

Many possibilities flashed through his mind quickly.

In the process, he deliberately kept the air calm, but finally heard what he least wanted to hear amidst the sound of his heartbeats.

"Yang, stop."

"?"

The figure in the distance standing at the end of the ruins was ultimately unable to leave here.

"what happened?!!"

The miner next to Bai Yu finally noticed something was wrong.

As an ordinary person, he instinctively trembled and screamed.

However, in this K Company branch that had completely calmed down but was gradually shaking, there was no need for anyone to answer him.

"Ugh……"

Bai Yu felt the ground shaking beneath his feet, sighed, and helplessly placed his hand on the EGO at his waist.
