Chapter 308 Way to the Top (15)

As strategists, knowing that the situation is unfavorable, it is understandable to choose to avoid the fight.

However, if they can’t retreat anymore, they will also act decisively and fight desperately.

At this moment, seeing that their teammates were thrown out, Swan, Autumn Wind, and Calm Speaker can’t kneel anymore. They immediately stood up and prepared to fight the enemy.

“Want to fight me?” Little Red turned her head back to the three men: “Huh…have you given up your life?”

“Don’t do it!” Feng Bujue shouted in the distance, “I’m fine!”

Under the timely restraint of Feng Bujue, the three players who were about to throw some skills stopped in a few seconds.

“Little Red, you won’t kill us.” Feng Bujue stood up with a slight wobble: “We are the boss’s ‘guest’, so you can’t do this…”

Little Red remained silent for a few seconds, staring at Feng Bujue from afar, and sneered coldly: “How did you make this interpretation?”

“We, ‘travelers from another world’ in your word, have certain rules when doing this kind of short-term travel.” Feng Bujue tried to explain in words that the scenario characters can understand: “And you… are too strong. If we play against you, the probability of surviving is zero, absolutely zero, 0.00%.” ​​He repeatedly emphasized this, trying to persuade his teammates.

As a player with Spiritual Mind, Feng Bujue can speculate on the difference in strength more concretely. The ability of Little Red in front of him made him unable to see even the slightest chance. Even the superheroes he met in Gotham City could not be compared with this little girl.

“There will never be such a situation on our journey…” Feng Bujue said: “So I think you should not want to, or cannot kill us.” He rubbed his aching back: “I can tell you were merciful when you threw me, even if I did nothing, I wouldn’t die. At most, I’ll be hurt badly.”

When Little Red listened to Feng Bujue’s words, her expression did not change much, but her killing intention was gradually disappeared.

“I know you’re angry…I’m deserving of it on me. But…” Feng Bujue said: “Since the werewolf had already gone, I suggest that you should hurry up and pursue it. Let us go to the seventh floor, everyone has to deal with their own affairs first. If you still feel hateful afterward, it’s not too late to come back and kill me.”

“Um…” Little Red groaned, and then turned into a red phantom toward Feng Bujue.

She walked on the ground above the quagmire, and instantly came to Feng Bujue: “You got some courage, and it makes sense.” She agreed with Feng Bujue’s point of view, but the mace in her hand still smashed him mercilessly.

With a snap, the nail head hammer hit Feng Bujue’s left leg knee and broke it.

“But I hate to follow other people’s instructions, even the boss.” Little Red pulled the bloody mace out of Feng Bujue’s knees, threw it back to her shoulders with sneers: “So, this is the extra punishment for you.” She looked at Feng Bujue’s painful face and showed a contented look before turning around and leaving.

When she passed, the other three players did not dare to breathe, but just quietly waited for Little Red to pass by.

No one speaks or dares to make some eye contact…

Until Little Red entered the elevator. Autumn Wind raise his voice to Feng Bujue far away and yelled, “Are you all right Feng Dude??”

“Sure…” Feng Bujue said, “I didn’t disappear into white light, it means I’m still alive.”

“We all know this.” Swan said: “I’m just a little worried that you are attached to the bleeding effect.” The question he considered was critical because the items in this scenario could not be used, in case Feng Bujue was attached to the bleeding effect, and he couldn’t stop that, then he will be so dead.

“It’s okay, I was just attached with a fracturing effect, and there was no continuous blood loss.” Feng Bujue replied: “The survival value is now 8%, will be good if I don’t get further hurt.”

“8% is very dangerous.” Calm Speaker said: “And the speed of this kind of injury recovery is very slow, if there is no prop to remove the state, the fracture may continue to accompany you until the end of the scenario.”

Feng Bujue said: “It makes sense, then please carry me among the way then.” He apparently seized on the wrong point, “Oh, yes, when I was thrown by Little Red, I had dropped the broom on the ground.” He pointed to a foothold not far from the three, “Don’t forget to take it.”

Ten minutes later……

The four have crossed the swamp and entered the mural through the stone steps.

Calm Speaker, who was relatively strong, was responsible for carrying Feng Bujue and walking in the middle of the team. Autumn Wind took the broom to explore the way in front, and Swan was responsible for breaking.

The stone steps are longer than they thought while continuing to extend higher. The slope is getting steeper, the path is getting narrower and more dangerous.

After another ten minutes, they have come to a place with a relatively high altitude. Looking down from here, it was a hazy mist. Under the moonlight, the swamp under the fog showed a variety of beautiful colors, as an illusion in a dream.

“Don’t make me fall~” Feng Bujue put on the witch’s hat and said in an old-fashioned voice, “My old bone might be hurt~”

“I want to throw you directly off the cliff, but the system doesn’t allow it.” Calm Speaker replied.

“Ah… I remembered when I fought solo with a Balrog, I also fell over a cliff.” Feng Bujue stroked the pointed hat on his head: “After this battle, I rose from a Gray Robe to a White Robe.”

“Now he’s using Gandalf reference, alright…” Swan said: “You are really good at bullshit.”

“Hey! It seems to be the end.” Autumn Wind at the front of the team interrupted their gossip.

They looked up and saw that at the top of their front, about two hundred meters away, was the top of the stone steps. There was a turquoise dark cloud, which was shaped like a ring, and there were some sounds in the ring, which seemed to be the sound of water…

The players stepped up slightly, walking all the way to the end of the stone steps, and stepped on a smooth rock.

Here, they saw another shocking scene.

There was a waterfall in the dark cloud circle above the heads of four people, it was a reverse waterfall. The turbulent current ignored the gravitational criterion and ran towards the top. Standing under this dark cloud, they had an illusion that they are hanging upside down in the air.

Calm Speaker put down Feng Bujue, who stood on one leg with a very standard gangster style, akimbo with one hand. Feng Bujues said, “Do you have any opinions?”

“Um…” Swan pondered for a few seconds before saying, “I have a plan. The three of us work together to throw Feng Dude there.”

“Oh! Good idea.” Autumn Wind immediately agreed.

Calm Speaker also touched his chin thoughtfully: “As long as a few minutes later, the team bar didn’t say Feng Dude was dead, this means that the above passage is safe and can successfully take us to the seventh floor. “

“Well… this idea is indeed good.” Facing the malicious plan of the three, Feng Bujue agreed very calmly: “My leg is injured, it will be more laborious to jump up on my own. In case I failed to jump and fell into the swamp below from this height, I’ll be so dead.” He said taking off his hat and handed it to Calm Speaker, “For security reasons, take the plot items. Wait three more minutes before you act. If I am not dead then, you would jump up one by one.”

Swan was quite surprised by Feng Bujue’s attitude of being so cooperative. In fact, his suggestion contained some jokes, but he didn’t expect Feng Bujue to agree.

Now that the strategy has been decided, after discussing some details, they put it into action. Calm Speaker, Swan, and Autumn Wind stood in position, holding Feng Bujue, aiming directly above and throwing him high, allowing him to fly into the cloud vortex with his head up.

As soon as his body touched the water of the cascading waterfall, Feng Bujue felt the blood all over his feet, and the gravity seemed to be reversed at that moment, causing him to “fall” into the water instantly.

As mentioned earlier… He can’t swim.

Of course, in such a turbulent rapid, it will not make a big difference whether or not to swim.

Feng Bujue is like a substance thrown into the toilet, moving at a high speed under the drag of the current. He couldn’t open his eyes at all, and his whole body was still under considerable water pressure. But this did not let him lose his survival value, the cold water temperature temporarily paralyzed the pain in his left leg.

About thirty seconds later, Feng Bujue suddenly felt the pressure on his body was gone and leaned his back on something, making him a lying state.

He tried to sit up but unexpectedly made his upper body protruding from the water.

“Huh?” Feng Bujue opened his eyes, and the bright light made him a little uncomfortable. When he saw the surroundings, he looked very surprised.

At this moment, he saw his own bathroom, while he was lying in the bathtub.

“Turns out… did I fall asleep why taking shower…” Feng Bujue thought.

It turned out that after Battle for the Cowl, Feng Bujue took a shower and ended up falling asleep in the bathtub. Everything was just a dream.

…………

Which’s impossible.

Feng Bujue didn’t have the chance to taste “The protagonist wakes up and finds that everything is a dream” ending, which was counted as a forbidden skill among authors.

…………

[The current task has been changed, the main task has been updated] The system prompt sounded at this time.

Feng Bujue glanced down and found that he was still wearing the Joker costume, he understood everything.

After sighing, he crawled out of the bathtub and opened the game menu for inspection.

In the team column, the names of the three teammates still exist, and they are all alive.

In the taskbar, [All surviving players enter the Reasoning Club ] was not checked. Below this task, there is a new task: [Escape from the memory space and return to the seventh floor of the ‘Test Building’.]

Besides, there is a very important change… the items in his bag can be used again.
