Chapter 1022: Chapter 1022 Great

Within the twinkling stars, a sword appeared from its sheath.

It was still Ruby.

Willard was stunned for two seconds, a self-deprecating smile tugging at his lips.

He had recruited 45 subjects, so many people, yet only brought back a single sword, while the other side, with merely 4 people, had seized four swords! This was truly laughable!

Bai Youwei in front was slowly drawing out the sword.

"This is the last sword." Willard twisted his lips, his sarcasm undisguised, "Think carefully now... Out of six vulnerable spots on the body, two have already been struck, leaving the chest, abdomen, left leg, right leg... Which will you choose?"

Bai Youwei held the sword silently.

Her wound in the abdomen hadn’t healed yet, and Willard’s arms were still bloody. Beneath the two thrones, unbeknownst to them, the ground had already been stained with fresh blood...

Both of their conditions were poor; now, it was a contest to see who could outlast the other.

Willard said with a sneer that was not quite a smile, "Why don’t you try the abdomen again, to make up for the loss in the last round?... Ah, but what if you hit the second shield? In that case, wouldn’t you just be prolonging this standstill with me here?"

Bai Youwei spoke coldly: "Would you place the shield in the same spot?"

"You guess." Willard chuckled, "Maybe I’d place it over my heart, where once you try to strike at my vitals, it would add another shield for me?... Or perhaps, I did the opposite, placed it on the legs, who knows, heh..."

Bai Youwei slowly surveyed him...

Where could it be? The shield.

There were six swords in total for the game—

Willard obtained one, striking her abdomen, then she got two, each striking Willard’s left and right arms. Next, when she obtained the third sword, it hit the shield.

The shield could only last for three turns, so Willard most likely didn’t use the shield in the first round. The newly added shield could be at any one of four places: the abdomen, chest, left leg, or right leg.

Of course, considering this was the final showdown to decide the battle, for the sake of guaranteeing his own survival, the likelihood of Willard placing the shield on either the chest or the abdomen was very high.

But perhaps, he thought contrarily and intentionally placed it on the legs?

...No, that’s not right. Perhaps he would try to think contrarily in the earlier rounds, but now was the crucial moment. Could he afford to gamble?

He couldn’t afford it.

He would place the shield over his chest or abdomen, because those spots, especially the heart—if struck, there would be no reversing the fatal outcome!

She must avoid the shield, unable to allow his shield to grow any further.

Bai Youwei’s gaze slowly moved down, resting on Willard’s legs.

So... choose the left leg or the right leg?

The legs should be safe; randomly selecting one shouldn’t matter, right?

He originally had burns, was much weaker than her, and with both arms injured, bleeding profusely, just one more strike, even if it wouldn’t kill him immediately, would definitely hasten his demise.

Furthermore, there are major arteries in the legs, and while not necessarily a precise target, it was an opportunity.

"Decided yet?" Willard revealed a vicious smile, "Perhaps I placed it on the legs, two legs... you have a 50% chance."

Don’t listen to him speak.

He just wants to confuse her.

No matter how much he talks, it’s useless; with just one sword, he simply cannot beat her! Because he doesn’t even have the opportunity to attack!

Bai Youwei breathed slowly, organizing her thoughts.

She now held an overwhelming advantage, no need to rush, no need to panic... Among these four spots, the probability of hitting a shield is only 25%, as long as she avoids the shield, victory is certain.

Just need... to avoid, the shield.

Is it the chest, the abdomen, or the left leg and right leg?

Such a cunning person, where would he hide the shield?

Bai Youwei closed her eyes.

If she were Willard, how would she choose?
