I am a reincarnation player.

No wonder it increased sharply after leaving the castle. Damn, how come I became the main responsible person?

The two looked at each other and separated guiltily. Everyone had a responsibility and no one wanted to pass the blame on. It was just that they felt very awkward when they were comparing answers.

"The reason is no longer important, Brother Li, just tell me what to write." Yuki coughed lightly and brought the topic back to the topic.

"Players are not allowed to harm other players until the dungeon is over. How about you tell me the clues?"

"Brother Li, do you think I'm stupid? Let's call a truce. You can do something bad and let the zombies kill me. And there is also a gift from Red Moon. I have to hold your thigh, Brother Li."

"Then how do you write it?"

Yuki thought for a moment before answering, "How about changing the second half of the sentence to: Before I leave the dungeon, I will tell you the way out?"

It is fair and reasonable. If he can leave, Li Dan can definitely leave too.

"Okay, then repeat these two sentences with me in your heart."

It’s a very simple contract, but it can provide basic protection. Now that neither party dares to go together, it’s better to make a deal.

So Yuki silently recited in his heart, and saw the bamboo slips fly into the sky and unfold. An illusory brush was writing, just like a projection, projecting the content into the air so that both parties could see it.

[Player Yuki, you are signing a contract, do you confirm? ]

A strange voice sounded in his mind. Yuki paused for a moment, repeated these dozens of words over and over again, and then nodded.

"confirm."

As soon as he finished speaking, a vague feeling emerged, as if he was shackled by the rules. He could neither attack Li Dan nor tell the other party the result before leaving.

"Brother Li, it's a pleasure to work with you."

Li Dan ignored him completely. This cooperation was not pleasant at all. At least on the surface, he could not get the crucial features.

"Take care of yourself. We'll settle this account in the next instance."

"Okay, I'll wait."

With a smile on his face, Yuki respectfully saw Li Dan off and only breathed a sigh of relief after he was sure that he was out of sight.

After all, he is not a reckless man who acts out of anger. Li Dan is very smart and rational. As long as I grasp the pain points and find common interests, he will not take action even if Li Dan can kill me in seconds.

"He's gone?" Mai Sakurajima, who was hiding behind the wall, raised her head quietly. This was also the trump card. Because of the lies they told each other, any information provided by Yuki became unreliable.

"Well, he had no choice. Killing me would be meaningless except for venting his anger, and people like Li Dan are more afraid of death than me."

"Afraid of death? Shouldn't he get used to death?"

"Yes, I have experienced the joy of extraordinary power and have worked hard to overcome difficulties and obstacles. Although I am far from reaching the peak, I am more afraid of death..."

"Please speak human language."

Yuki rolled his eyes, turned his head and answered while firing the rope gun.

"Barefoot are not afraid of those wearing shoes!"

They had just joined the game for a day, so if they died, they died. But the old players had no idea how many extreme operations they had performed and how much their human nature had been distorted to get to this point with great difficulty.

To be buried with a few newcomers just for the sake of face? This is a joke!

Yuki slid to the roof of the opposite building and landed right next to Hayasaka Ai. The two didn't say much, but they understood each other's thoughts just by looking at each other.

Worthy of being an expert.

Well done, Hasaka-san.

The plan was made by both of them. Hayasaka Ai's Mask of Fool had been delivered to Sakurajima Mai when the tyrant was killed, and it started to take effect when they passed through the barbed wire, so it was Hayasaka Ai who was dragged away.

The whole process was completed under Li Dan's nose, and no communication was required. The thoughtful Li Dan became a fool and gave up the dominant position.

"Li Dan is still wrong. I am not the only talented newcomer who can affect the difficulty of the game." Yuki smiled contentedly and met Hayasaka Ai's admiring gaze.

He was not being sentimental, nor did he set up a plot where the hero saved the beauty, but it was really difficult to make Hayasaka Ai admire him so openly.

"I think things will go smoothly from now on."

Yuki didn't say anything, just glanced at the direction where Li Dan left, and told Hayasaka Ai the answer with his eyes:

The fun has just begun!

Chapter 46: Qualitative Change (6K)

Li Dan left and the contract was signed. There would be no accidents under the rules of the game, but when Hayasaka Ai saw Yuki's eyes, her heart, which had just been put at ease, was hung again.

There was no reason, everything this man said came true one by one, at least nothing had gone wrong since the start of the game.

"I believe you."

The answer was very simple, and there was no further response. This made Yuki laugh and he raised his fist.

"Aren't you afraid that I might do something bad this time? I scared you enough last time."

"I'm not stupid. Some things have nothing to do with face. Who dares to wait for you to grow up?" Hayasaka Ai raised her hand with beautiful nails and collided with Yuuki's fist. She looked back and said, "Don't be slick. Look, Mai-san is unhappy."

Mai Sakurajima was standing nearby, looking at the two of them with a strange look in her eyes. Even though she also played a key role, she didn't have this kind of natural sense of tacit understanding.

But when she heard the teasing voice, her eyes instantly returned to normal and she raised her chin slightly: "Who is unhappy? You two kept it a secret from me so hard, it turns out you already knew there was a problem."

"I dare not talk nonsense about anything that has not been confirmed. This has nothing to do with trust." Yuki stood straight and glanced at the fat man in the distance.

He huddled in the corner, coughing and sitting there stupidly, wanting to come over but not daring enough.

"Of course not." At this time, Hayasaka Ai suddenly took over, looking at the girl in front of her with an equally strange look, "Mai-san even risked her life for you. If you don't trust her, do you still have a conscience?"

There was a hint of teasing and sarcasm in his voice, and Yuki immediately shut his mouth, glancing at Sakurajima Mai who was biting her teeth.

The senior student didn't get angry, or rather, getting angry would be even more embarrassing. She simply grinned and said provocatively, "I just wanted to thank him for saving the situation and agreed to his request. So, you didn't show any appreciation?"

"Haha, no problem for me." Hayasaka Ai didn't intend to show weakness, she turned her head with a smile and said, "Yuuki, what benefits do you want?"

Please don't look so scary when you say "welfare", as if I will be dead if I make any unreasonable requests.

And senior sister Mai, I heard the sound of you opening the safety of your pistol. If I treat you differently, are you going to make a few holes in my body?

An atmosphere of a killing field was spreading, but this did not pose any problem for Yuki.

"Hasaka, if you have time, give me a maid outfit."

Humph, that's pretty good. You have good eyesight.

Mai let go of the pistol, and then something even stranger happened. Hayasaka Ai didn't get angry, nor did she break down. There was just a strange flash in her eyes, and then she nodded.

"No problem, I promise you."

Hiss, this woman is crazy, how could she accept it so calmly? My bunny girl costume is still a black history.

It must be a bluff. I have to remember that it's only fair to know each other's dark history.

She was waiting to see what was going to happen, and Yuki breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this little test had been passed.

Maid outfits may seem shameful, but for Hayasaka Ai, they are just work clothes and have long been part of her daily wardrobe.

"Fatty, come here."

Yuki spoke loudly, and just as he finished his words, Robert came running over in a panic, and like a tiger pouncing on its prey, he slammed his knees on the floor, hugged Yuki's thighs and started crying.

"Brother Yuki, don't kill me. I was only following the orders of that bastard Li Dan. I really didn't mean to abandon you!"

When crossing the railway, he ran faster than anyone else and indirectly sold Yukiro. Who knew that this was so complicated and it turned out to be a game between new and old players, and in the end the new player won.

Who can I go to for justice? Any normal person would stand on Li Dan's side.

There's no need to pretend to be afraid. Yuki can kill this worthless fat man right now. It would be strange if he wasn't afraid.

"I know. If you were Li Dan's man, you would have been taken away just now." Yukiko patted his head gently with a friendly look: "Don't cry, I'm not as scheming as Li Dan, nor as ruthless as him. After all, we have fought side by side."

Robert didn't believe a word of the first half of the sentence, but he agreed with the second half. At least according to his observation, Yuki, Mai, and Hayasaka Ai have a very harmonious relationship. Weren't they joking just now?

"Yes, yes, yes, I will listen to you from now on. I will be more obedient than Miss Hasaka and Miss Mai!"

Sakurajima Mai immediately showed a look of shame. This man was so happy when he left them behind just now, but now he is like a dog licking their boots, with no bottom line at all.

"Well, just be good and listen to me, I will ensure that you will be safe. Fatty, you are a very accurate shooter and it is quite useful." Yuki gave the same encouraging look as Li Dan. It is a skill to change one's ways without any psychological burden.

"No problem, I'll beat whoever you tell me to beat!"

The fat man slapped his chest, and Yuki didn't bother to look at him. He asked, "Are you curious about how to survive the last day and night?"

After a brief interlude, attention returned to the main topic. Hayasaka Ai instantly became expressionless, returned to player form, and checked the time.

"There are still five hours until daybreak. I don't think you will wait until daytime to make plans."

The answer is of course no. The intensity after the moonset must be extremely high. Even Li Dan has no confidence that he can survive it safely, so he chooses to turn against her and prepare to snatch a way out from Sakurajima Mai.

"Let me think about it, you want to avoid the last day and night, right?"

"Smart. Since the moon rises and sets for a day, there is a place where we can instantly cross the entire day and enter the last night. Then, when we leave that place, the red moon will set instantly again."

Yuki spoke eloquently and almost threw the answer in his face. No one present was an idiot, and they understood it all at once, as if a layer of window paper had been pierced through.

"The Castle of Eternal Night!"

Mai Sakurajima blurted out and wanted to slap herself on the head. Why didn’t I think of such a simple truth? It turned out that I was in a game and had no time to look for patterns.

Hayasaka Ai narrowed her eyes. She also couldn't figure it out, but she understood that Li Dan must know the answer. This was the reason for the truce with Yuki.

The answer is not difficult for this veteran player, but how to execute it is a problem. The castle is now just a monster spawning point. If one really has the ability to kill all the zombies, he will not be afraid of the last day and night.

"How to get in and how to get out, this clue is in the hands of Jiecheng."

For a moment she seemed to have thought of something, and she looked at Sakurajima Mai, but they quickly separated without revealing any problems.

"So we're going back to the castle?"

"Well, but the way back is not peaceful." Yuki looked downstairs and could see zombies in groups of three or four on the street. These creatures would not evolve like they did during the day, but their numbers were increasing as time went by.

It won’t be long before the entire city is filled up, and the tide of zombies will be incalculable.

"No matter what, we have to hold on until morning. In other words, we have to receive two more gifts from Red Moon."

Everyone's faces tensed, and they followed Yuki's gaze towards the street, and then their nervous expressions turned ashen.

It was as if someone had turned up the brightness, and the moonlight suddenly surged, making the crimson moonlight between heaven and earth even more intense.

There were dozens of zombies wandering around at the intersection, and more than twenty of them disappeared as if they were lost in the thick moonlight.

But the disappearance only lasted for a moment. Soon, a monster with blue-gray skin, fat body and a bulging belly appeared in the moonlight, and the extra zombies disappeared.

It literally turned into a living person, no, it turned into a zombie, which made people breathe faster.

"Wait a minute, what is this?" Sakurajima Mai felt like she was on a roller coaster. She had just felt comfortable for a while, but now her heart was pounding again.

Hayasaka Ai still had no expression on her face. She just gently stroked the axe handle and looked at Yuuki who was observing the surroundings with a telescope:

"No wonder you had to deal with Li Dan's matter before 3 a.m."

Whether players believe it or not, the cruel facts are in front of them——

This is the third gift from Red Moon.

"Random fusion? Becoming an elite monster in the zombie swarm? Well, it's easier than I thought. It seems that after destroying Li Dan's contract, the difficulty accumulation is not as outrageous as before. This is good news."

Yuki ignored the crazy looks from the three people behind him and instead breathed a sigh of relief after observing the swarm of zombies around the community.

'The one with the big belly looks a bit like a vomiter, and I just saw a monster with a long tongue. Is this the way to survive?'

He was not surprised. Yuki knew from the beginning that the concept of "zombies" encompassed many types, such as the thing in the basement of the castle, and the thousand-year-old zombies that might appear in the future. He paid more attention to the reasons behind it:

The difficulty is indeed increasing, but the magnitude is much smaller than the evolution of a Licker into a Tyrant, because the fusion means that the number of zombies is also decreasing, which is better than throwing out some horrible monster out of thin air.

At that time, you will have to deal with the zombie horde while fighting monsters more powerful than the Tyrant. That would be a truly desperate situation.

"Let's go that way." Yuki pointed in the direction of the railway line and heard a sound of rapid breathing.

This is to go to "Tiger Mountain". The density of zombies must be higher than that in the old city. Yuki didn't explain, and directly shot the rope gun at the opposite apartment building, then jumped up, holding the cable and sliding to the other side.

The night wind blew on my face. A zombie with a hunched body and strong arms was wandering on the roof. It heard the sound of a rope gun piercing into the floor and immediately turned its head.

Its face cracked open, revealing bloody sharp teeth. Just as Yuki landed on the ground, it jumped up to a height of five or six meters.

The monster drew a parabola in the air, and its destination was Yuki's back. Before Hayasaka Ai could raise her gun, Yuki had already stepped to the side and slashed directly at it with the whining chainsaw sword.

The chainsaw cut off the raised arms like cutting cheese, penetrated into the waist, and came out from the back. The killing made Yuki's heart beat faster, and he couldn't help but reveal a bloodthirsty smile.

You want to ride me?

In just a moment, the monster was cut into two pieces, and the zombies that ran to the rooftop after hearing the news didn't even see anything clearly. They were pierced through the head by bullets and lay down neatly.
