I'm bad, but players love me
Page 12
In the middle of the banquet, Setash, as the host, took the initiative to invite Ella to stand with him in the best position in the center of the open-air dance hall and dance together.
Ah Dai relied on the fact that he was a player and directly passed through the model and stuck between the two of them, striving to be the first to "protect" them during the assassination.
Ella understood why her father insisted she attend Lord Setash's ball. A nobleman with a vast fortune was destined to need the protection of others to survive in a world where women were valued over men. His fortune naturally belonged to whoever could protect him.
Her father hoped that they would be the ones to belong, so Ella had to make her attitude clear. She gently took Setash's hand and accepted his invitation.
The sun shines directly through the well-trimmed olive trees. The graceful leaves, guided by the wind, constantly cut the sunlight. The trivial light and dark envelope the two people spinning in the center, but their clear-cut appearance does not have the slightest bit of the charming scenery that dancers should have.
"Sir Ella, let's end our relationship here." As they passed each other, Ella heard Setash whispering softly in her ear.
Ella had the same idea in her mind, but before she could express it directly, a silver bullet pierced through the falling olive leaves and shot straight into her back with a sound of breaking through the air.
[Be careful!] Ah Dai immediately blocked it.
After Lumi becomes her partner, the player can get additional points. A guy like Ah Dai, who doesn't have a very high fighting nerve, naturally puts all the points into "agility".
I can't beat him, so why can't I beat him? Critical hits and the like are all unorthodox methods, scraping is the eternal god!
Ah Dai immediately started shouting in the live broadcast room, "Did you see that? Be a hero and save the beauty! Who said I, Ah Dai, could only be an NPC? Come here and see what true strength is!"
[What are you pretending for?! Can someone please take a closer look at the screen? Your defense isn't high enough, and it was Ella who blocked it for you!]
[I was so scared. I really thought this guy was going to pretend.]
[You never thought, my Ella is the one who caught the bullet with her bare hands! ]
[The facts prove that whether Yun Shuo is there or not, Ah Dai is still an NPC.]
[This is hilarious. All the other streamers are trying to show off in the livestream, but Ah Dai is the only one getting frustrated. I really love watching this.]
Because Ah Dai's defense value is not enough to directly block the bullet, but his agility is too high, the system automatically determines that Ah Dai dodged the bullet for the sake of the player's health value.
Ella also switched combat modes in an instant. She held the silver-white HK416, which had only appeared in the early stages of the game, steadily in her hand. With the blessing of divine power, she automatically aimed at the target along the trajectory of the ballistic missile. Without much thought, she was sure to hit the target.
Afterward, she ordered in a low voice, "The banquet is cancelled. As for this attack, I will give everyone a satisfactory answer soon."
He protected the players with one hand and counterattacked the opponents with the other, and he was able to stabilize the situation so calmly after finishing the job, which really gave the players a sense of security.
What is a queen-like character with both beauty and strength?
But Ah Dai completely lost the sense of security that he was protected. Instead, he felt a huge regret that almost solidified into a physical entity and surrounded her. He had missed a great opportunity to improve her favorability because he clicked the wrong number.
"I was supposed to be the one pretending to be this bitch!"
[Don't panic, Ah Dai. Ella still cares about you. Look, she came to care about you as soon as she finished her business!]
[His favorability must have increased quite a bit, otherwise he wouldn't have cared about you so immediately.]
Ah Dai instantly cheered up, "Well, to be honest, the worst that can happen is that she's just a gigolo. As long as her favorability goes up, it won't be a problem. As long as she's willing to spend time on me, that's all that matters."
After saying that, she immediately and excitedly clicked on the dialog box that Ella popped up. She didn't bother to be polite and asked directly, "Where's Yun Shuo?"
No, you ask me?
Ah Dai looked at the beautiful face on the screen with a confused look on his face. It was a very beautiful girl, but she had nothing to do with Ah Dai.
In the livestream, Ah Dai's expression went from excitement, confusion, doubt, grievance, sadness, to a numbness where she wanted to cry but couldn't. Finally, her countless words boiled down to one sentence: "Who is the player in this game? Am I the protagonist, or is Yun Shuo the protagonist?"
The barrage of comments suddenly exploded, and everyone in unison filled the screen with comments like, "Don't cry, Ah Dai, wear your hat straight. It won't look good if it's crooked."
Chapter 29: The Injured Yialos
Yun Shuo was originally worried that he might not be able to hear the sound of the gunshot, but after the bullet was fired, he knew that his worry was absolutely wrong. The screams of those nobles almost overturned the entire sky. Even a deaf person would stick his head out at this time to ask if something happened.
Without further ado, he walked quickly to the end of the garden, passed through the path where the branches of flowers overlapped, and saw a quaint little door hidden in a corner of the wall.
It was a very small door, requiring people to almost bend over to pass through it. There was no lock on the door, only a stone blocking the creaking door that could neither be closed nor opened.
Fearing being discovered, Yun Shuo had no choice but to change his finery into the clothes his servants had bought. Looking at the bright fabric in his hands, he thought for a moment, then with a wicked grin on his face, he threw the clothes Ella had given him back where they were.
When Yun Shuo finally reached the outside with his back bent, before he could take a few breaths of free air, he saw Yialos crawling past him. He ran forward without looking back, and his heavy breathing made Yun Shuo immediately realize that something was wrong with his physical condition.
Yialos held his abdomen tightly. After being shot, he hardly dared to look at how many holes there were on his stomach. According to the number of shots Ella fired, there should be only one, but according to the pain he felt, his stomach should have been riddled with holes.
He held the gun in his right hand and covered his stomach with his left hand. Blood soaked the clothes on his abdomen, and it felt sticky when he touched it. He didn't know whether it was blood or some organs in his stomach that were flowing out.
Not daring to look, and fearing that his organs might fall to the ground without him knowing, Yialos could only vaguely use his hands to feel if anything that shouldn't have fallen had fallen out, but the immediate pain reflected in his nerves made him quickly give up the idea.
The pain after being shot made him want to die right there, but the desire to survive and the subsequent adrenaline forced him to quickly escape from the place where he shot, otherwise if he was caught by Ella's men, he would really be in a dilemma.
As long as you can escape, there is still a glimmer of hope.
Yialos thought, at worst, he could just shoot himself, which would be more painful.
However, being inexperienced and having lost most of his rationality, he never considered that his blood dripping all the way was actually guiding the people chasing him. He just kept stumbling forward, the farther the better.
Yun Shuo quickly followed and grabbed him, "Follow me!"
"Who!" Yialos struggled hurriedly, but calmed down after being slapped by Yun Shuo. He shouted in great surprise: "Commander!" There was even a hint of aggrieved tone at the end of his voice.
"Alright, hurry up and follow me!" Yun Shuo patted his face, "To the slaughterhouse!"
Huh? Yialos was completely stunned. "I... I'm not tasty. No, just... well... or, well, I think I can still be saved."
"We are not at the point where we would eat humans." Yun Shuo saw that the man had completely weakened, so he had no choice but to half-drag and half-carry him away, and by the way, he used a handkerchief to block the wound on Ialos's abdomen.
Fortunately, I brought this thing with me thinking it might be useful. Otherwise, I would not be able to find anything clean to plug the wound for a while, and excessive bleeding could be fatal.
You mean that's the situation, right? Just because you don't eat now doesn't mean you won't eat in the future, right? Yialos's eyes widened. "I..."
"Hey, don't be soft! Stand up!" Carrying a living person is not as difficult as carrying a half-crippled person, especially when the other party is a restless half-crippled person. In order not to put pressure on the other party's wound, Yun Shuo had to carry the person in a particularly awkward posture.
"Don't be silly! The slaughterhouse will hide your blood better. Otherwise, with your bleeding speed, you'll be a direct lead to others, you know? Also, there's hot water and tweezers over there, which will make it easier to remove the bullet."
Bullets are not sterile, and remaining in the body can easily cause infection. They also introduce contaminants like rust and gunpowder residue. Heavy metals like lead can also cause poisoning if left in the body for extended periods. The longer they are removed, the less effective it is for wound healing.
So Yun Shuo must solve it as soon as possible.
The woman who was pouring a large pool of chicken feather mixture into the sewer had good eyesight and spotted Yun Shuo from a distance. When she looked closely, she saw that the man was carrying a half-dead person on his shoulders. She was so scared that she hurried forward to catch him, "Oh, what's going on?"
For the aunt who carries chickens and pigs all year round, carrying Yialos is like a game. "Hurry, hurry, come in!" She pulled open the cloth curtain behind her to cover the dirt.
As the curtain opened, the pungent smell of blood mixed with the stench of chickens and poultry hit me. The scattered chicken feathers and the accidentally spilled blood on the ground made me want to stay away. If it were an ordinary person, I'm afraid that after just one look, I would have retched and retreated three feet away.
Yialos was the ordinary man vomiting. Although he was a commoner, he was well-fed and well-clothed. He couldn't cook, so he usually just ate black bread and water. When he had a better meal, he would go to a restaurant. He had never experienced this kind of taste.
But no matter how disgusted she was, there was nothing she could do. The aunt just thought the boy was seriously injured and slapped her thigh anxiously, "What should I do? Yun Shuo, I can't do this job of treating illnesses!"
Yun Shuo tore off the bloody clothes on Yialos' body and held them in his hands. "No need. Just boil some hot water first, the kind that's boiling hot. Then put the chicken-killing knife, plucking tweezers, needle and thread and other things in another pot and boil them. Just find a place for this guy to lie down, don't worry too much."
After saying that, he picked up the dirty water that the aunt had put aside and walked straight out.
After the handkerchief blocked the wound, there was almost no more blood dripping out. But to be on the safe side, Yun Shuo still checked it carefully and tried his best to flush the bloody area near the slaughterhouse with water.
Then he used the blood in the cloth in his hand to squeeze out a new escape route, leading this road all the way to the river, and then simply threw the clothes into the river, watching them get pulled by the overgrown weeds on the side.
It didn't matter whether anyone believed that the assassin was dead or not. What mattered was that he needed to establish a hint, even if it could only confuse their minds for a moment.
After Yun Shuo finished doing these things, he wrapped his blood-stained clothes around a stone and threw it into the river. After washing the blood off his hands, he hurried to the slaughterhouse.
At this time, two gangsters called him, "Stop!"
Chapter 30: Little hooligans also have dreams
"What's the matter? If not, just get out of the way." After comparing his body shape with theirs, Yun Shuo already had an idea in his mind.
Seeing his arrogant attitude, the other party's anger immediately subsided, but if he really didn't rob them of the money for their drinks and meals tonight, they would have nothing to lose.
After the two looked at each other, they said in unison: "Do you know who we are?"
"Let me tell you, we're from the ELO organization! Dare you refuse? Believe it or not, we'll give it to you... Ugh!"
Before he could finish his words, Yun Shuo charged forward and punched the thug in the stomach. The thug immediately vomited and fell to the side. The person next to him tried to help, but an elbow directly hit his jaw. The guy who had been rushing over arrogantly suddenly became confused and unsteady. He took a few steps back and leaned against the wall before moving.
"Listen up, both of you. If you use ELO as an excuse again, it won't be resolved by a fight." Yun Shuo was in a hurry to pull the bullet out of Yialos' body. He didn't have time to argue with them here. He left after giving them a warning.
Seeing Yun Shuo leave, the gangster immediately stood up and quickly helped his dizzy companion to the ground.
They were used to being beaten on a daily basis. After all, they were just two guys who were neither better nor worse than the others, so they only bullied the weaker ones. Those who were slightly stronger would be beaten by them, and they were familiar with how to deal with the situation afterwards.
"Hey, don't be dizzy, do you think this person looks familiar?"
"Look familiar? What do you mean?"
"Just a few days ago, they were posted all over the streets and alleys!"
"what's that?"
"Wanted poster! It's the guy who assassinated the big shot. I heard he's from the ELO organization, probably a high-ranking one!"
"Then let's..."
"Hey Hey!"
"Let's just report it." "We can then join ELO."
The two were stunned when they heard each other's words, and said in unison: "Brother, are you...are you crazy?"
"Please! Do you know how much money that is? With this money, we won't have to worry about food and drink for the rest of our lives! Think about it, as long as we report it, the days of being noble lords will be waiting for us not far away!" The guy who was hit in the jaw spoke first.
The other person scoffed without hesitation, "Do you really think they'll give you that money? Don't forget how that family to the west went bankrupt. They were doing a good job, like they were the guards of a noble family. And then, overnight, the husband and children were gone, and no one knew where the wife went. A good family, just torn apart like that."
"That's different. Could the person who issued the bounty be someone unreputable? No matter what, this is no more reliable than the ELO organization. Do you really think they can make everyone live a good life as they say? Don't be silly, what are they? A bunch of pariahs! How can they, who are not even as good as us, turn the world upside down?"
"But I heard that many civilians have already joined."
"What does this prove? Let alone a hundred ordinary people, even if there were a thousand or ten thousand of us, we wouldn't be enough for those guys protected by the gods to practice with."
"I don't believe it." The man suddenly became serious. "I don't believe it. I'm going to give it a try. Will you come with me?"
As if startled by someone's sudden seriousness, he said, "Why are you so angry all of a sudden? I'm telling you, I won't follow you. There's no way I'm going to do this job. It's too stupid. How could there be someone as stupid as you in the world? Who would believe in ELO? Those low-lifes, they believe in ELO because they can't survive. We are civilians. No matter what, it's not our turn to fight and kill each other. The real thing is to live our own lives in peace!"
"What if they win?"
"There's no such thing as a one-time win. Even if they win, it's still the same. What? If the untouchables win, they won't become nobles, but will continue to suffer like commoners with us? They're crazy!"
"I want to go and take a look." The man rubbed his stomach and stood up. "You'll probably be dizzy for a while, so just sit here. I'll come find you later."
Her eyes dodged for a moment, and after pursing her lips, she still spoke: "I won't tell on anyone. I want to join ELO. But if you want to go, I won't stop you."
She ran away with the pair of worn leather shoes she had picked up that didn't fit her, following the direction she had seen Yun Shuo walking in.
As she ran along, she happened to bump into soldiers who came to search. She froze as if stung by a wasp, shaking uncontrollably. The tall and strong guys grabbed her and asked, "Why are you running?"
"I want to buy some chicken."
"Buying a chicken?" the leader scoffed. "A guy who can't even afford a pair of shoes wants to buy a chicken? Hahaha, are you kidding me? Tell me! Are you going to steal something?"
Her face immediately turned red because she had indeed stolen, but she was caught and beaten up.
This embarrassment was soon discovered by them. The atmosphere among them suddenly relaxed, and they flattered each other for their "good eye for talent" and for catching a would-be thief while catching an assassin.
"Go, lead us to where you bought the chicken." One of them said with a smile, "It just so happens that we are not familiar with such a dirty place."
"Hurry up, otherwise..." The other man held a folded whip in his hand and gestured towards her face while speaking, accompanied by a pretentious "Oh", and the feeling of humiliation permeated her whole body.
The road to the slaughterhouse was very close, but she remembered every step of the way.
She was too weak to let others notice her sinister eyes. She could only secretly curse those people to die quickly in her heart, and silently pray that she would definitely take revenge in the future.
"This is the slaughterhouse." She turned around, lowered her head and pointed inside.
"Very good, take us inside." The soldier pointed with his chin. "I heard that thieves always check out the place before stealing. You should be familiar with this place, right?"
She exhaled as slowly as possible, afraid that her breathing would reveal her anger. Her elbows were tucked into her waist, her nails scratching her thighs, and her toes were tightly tucked in under her leather shoes.
"Yes." She said in a low voice.
In a small corner that was as clean as possible behind the aunt's slaughterhouse, Yun Shuo skillfully took out the bullet from Yialos' body. With the help of the special medicine exchanged from the system, Yialos was able to do whatever he wanted soon.
At this moment, a teasing voice suddenly came from outside the house: "Don't you want to buy chicken? This is the best place to buy chicken in the whole slaughterhouse. Buy it! Hurry up and buy it!"
The old lady pretended to be calm and made a "hush" gesture to Yun Shuo and the other two. She whispered, "Don't make any noise. We are soldiers."
Chapter 31: I want to join ELO
The soldiers outside the house were still laughing and pushing the guy who led the way. She was being picked on like a piece of unsalable goods, and every shabby part of her body was carefully appreciated.
The farce really began when the old lady came out to greet people in a soft voice while wiping her hands with the rag around her waist.
"Tell me, what do you want to do?" The soldier pushed the skinny girl and deliberately stepped on her old leather shoes.
