Chapter 640 - 639: You’re Not Even Going to Save Me?
Good grief, it’s definitely Shi Yuhuai himself, no doubt about it.
The other three must be Han Xizheng, Chen Yi, and Guo Yin.
"I didn’t expect those who are out couldn’t just clock out, but had to go into retirement and find a new job." Zhao Yu muttered quietly.
"..." That analogy is surprisingly fitting.
Looking over there at the corridor, Shu Ran, Li Yang, and Chu Qiu all started shouting.
Chu Qiu: "No way! Brother Huai?! You slurp instant noodles until the end but still have to come out and work?!"
Shu Ran: "Aaaaah! Han Xizheng, don’t come over here! The slime on your face is so gross!"
Li Yang was still struggling on death’s doorstep, trying to run, but unfortunately, after only two steps, he was caught by the towering 049 plus an emotionally detached zombie version of Shi Yuhuai.
"No, no, no, no, no! Brother Huai, I’m begging you! You’re so cool like this, you’re not suited to do this kind of catching people thing!"
Only Cheng Zhirang remained calm, standing in the middle, while the other three were scurrying and crawling around him. He just stood there, straight as a ramrod, still watching Guo Yin with scrutiny.
"Where are Shen Zhousong and Guan Yu?"
Zombie Guo Yin: ... What kind of zombie answers questions from guests? Besides, he didn’t know where Shen Zhousong and Guan Yu had gone either.
He continued to do as his teacher had trained him before, doing his best to act like a qualified zombie, following behind 049 to "aid the evildoers."
Over there, Zhao Yu was also asking Mu Qiu the same question.
"Where’s Sister Guan Yu and Brother Lao Shen?"
"Probably haven’t had the chance to be reemployed yet," Mu Qiu said casually, "it’s like the senior art center, not everyone can join as soon as they turn fifty."
Zhao Yu showed a speechless expression.
But it made quite a lot of sense.
They continued to watch, pondering their options after those guys were wiped out.
"Brother Huai and Chen Yi grabbed Brother Cheng, Guo Yin grabbed Li Yang, Han Xizheng grabbed Chu Qiu, not bad... Where did our plague doctor find someone this huge? Just looks terrifying."
"Sister Shu Ran squatted down again."
"The fourth card must be in her hand, and maybe she’s using that card to threaten Chu Qiu, just like we threatened Li Yang before."
If you don’t cooperate, you’ll get killed instantly; if you cooperate, you might have a way out.
"Never thought Sister Shu Ran was a hidden villain using screams as a cover," Mu Qiu clicked his tongue twice, "SCP—173 is quite the spectacle of a large-scale killing machine."
Zhao Yu snorted, squinting at her: "You don’t even know what that is, do you?"
"Oh, fooling Brother Cheng, and you believed it too."
Zhao Yu: "..."
She decided not to argue with her, asking instead: "If she’s holding a weapon card, once this is over, her massacre targets will only be us."
Mu Qiu, not turning her head, continued watching the scene, casually replied: "No worries, I can save people."
"Dying and coming back to life over and over? Then wait for 813 to take effect and let Sister Shu Ran be directly eliminated?"
"Exactly."
"But you’ve never used 049 to save people, can it really be used like that?"
Mu Qiu paused.
"Right, what if it can only be used once per person?"
She lifted her eyes again to watch the massacre over in the corridor, Li Yang’s mouth was already being covered and was about to be dragged away, while Cheng Zhirang and Chu Qiu were also being silenced by 049.
"Wait a minute!"
Mu Qiu shouted, holding a card between her index and middle fingers, flipping it in front of her.
"I want to save someone!"
She had given away the power for 049 to kill, and now she wanted to use 049 to save someone, not knowing if the plague doctors were willing.
As soon as she said she wanted to save people, the 049s stopped, releasing the mouths of those who were out.
Then a mechanical-electronic voice sounded, like reading game rules in a game world, reciting the longest passage since the beginning to now.
"Beep———"
"Purifier power activated! Purification archive card——SCP—049, purification rules:
No full team revival! No overtime revival! Cannot revive SCP—902 killed, cannot revive 813 killed! Single revival use cannot exceed twice! Purifier herself can increase to three times! Death time exceeding five minutes is considered overtime! Please choose a revival target!"
Mu Qiu closed her eyes carefully listening to the long set of rules, estimated the time Cheng Zhirang and others had been out, then raised her hand and shouted to the group:
"I choose to revive Chu Qiu!"
Chu Qiu was overwhelmed with emotion: "Me?! Reviving me?! Ooh Mu Qiu, you’re too kind, you really are a good person who can’t stand seeing honest folks bullied!"
Mu Qiu: I’m actually doing it to bring you back to deal with Shu Ran.
Compared to his joy, the others had some opinions.
"Revive?! Why are you reviving now?! It was so hard to kick those three out!" Shu Ran was so agitated her hair was tousled, not even bothering to fix it, staring at Mu Qiu like she would eat her alive.
Mu Qiu leaned on the wall, waving to Shu Ran: "Come on, Sister Shu Ran, if there’s only one betrayer left, dealing with us is a piece of cake. Besides, your kind of monster is more fun with more people."
"Besides, the last card hasn’t been found yet, three people playing the final round is too boring," Zhao Yu added.
Shu Ran: "... You guys are gonna drive me nuts!"
She didn’t care if it was fun or boring, she only cared if she could kick people out and become number one, alright?!
Mu Qiu giggled, comforting her: "Don’t worry, reviving just one person doesn’t make much difference to you."
When the time comes, it’ll be exciting with the mutual slaughter between two betrayers.
Sitting on the floor, Li Yang, whose head couldn’t be seen from the corridor, suddenly popped up, glaring at her with resentment from the perpendicular angle of the corridor.
"You’re only reviving one person?! And it’s the enemy! We’re allies, aren’t you going to revive anyone from us?!"
"...... Well, you’re not a betrayer, reviving you is useless."
"So you evaluate your teammates based on usefulness?!"
"Well, what else?"
Li Yang: "...... Mu Qiu, you have a cold heart!"
Mu Qiu rubbed the goosebumps on her arms, turning to look at Cheng Zhirang who was standing next to him.
Cheng Zhirang just happened to be looking at her too, and when he saw her glance over, he flashed a gentle smile and asked her: "Are you not even saving me?"
Li Yang popped his head out again: "Brother Cheng, you’re cheating! You can’t use seduction!"
This is what they call seduction? Not a single bit of seductiveness was let out.
Mu Qiu scratched under her nose, coughed lightly, and called out to Cheng Zhirang from afar: "If I revive you, the three of you betrayers will be complete. With more people to fight, won’t you guys just focus on us? It’s not friendly to us."
"I promise I won’t attack you. Besides, the crucial information I just mentioned that matters to you, I can now tell you for free."
Oh, adding useful information on top of charm, it’s somewhat tempting.
"Why don’t you first tell us, what’s the information?"
Cheng Zhirang glanced at the zombie Guo Yin, who was holding Li Yang, and said: "One of you has been parasitized by 813."
