Weird Rules Rumor: At The Beginning, He Insisted That He Was Not Dead
Chapter 116: Genetic Tower (15)

【Xia Dongjie (Legend): Hahaha, I think you're joking. Do your job.】

【Pei Zhi Xin (Fist King): I'm not joking, I'm serious.】

【Xia Dongjie (Legend): Fine then! (งᵒ̌皿ᵒ̌)ง⁼³₌₃】

【Xia Dongjie (Legend): I’ll be waiting for you to return! When you do, I won’t just kill youI’ll obliterate you!】

"Pei Zhi Xin added Xia Dongjie and Ji Yunfeng to the group chat."

【Pei Zhi Xin (Fist King): Old Ji, the captain said he’ll kill us.】

【Ji Yunfeng (Evil Spirit): Captain, that’s too much! We’re working for you, and you want us dead?】

【Xia Dongjie (Legend): Do whatever you want! I don’t caredon’t message me from the dead dungeons!】

"Xia Dongjie left the group chat and blocked you."

“What are you two doing here?”

While Ji Yunfeng and Pei Zhi Xin were still deep in thought, Bai Lian suddenly appeared right in front of them.

Watching the pair, amusement flickered in Bai Lian’s eyes.

Hearing his voice, Ji Yunfeng and Pei Zhi Xin snapped back to reality, exchanged glances, and began strategizing.

They spoke loudly enough for Bai Lian to hear every word.

“What do we do? He spotted us.”

“What do we do? We’re both strongif we team up, can’t we take him down?”

“Yeah, you’re right. What’s the plan?”

“I’ll go first and distract him. Once he focuses on me, you flank him and use a Restriction Seal to trap him. Then force him to hand over the biological samples!”

“No, he stole my items and Rule Pointswe need those back too, or I’ll suffer huge losses.”

“Enough! Stop talkingdon’t let him hear us.”

I already heard everything… Bai Lian stared at the two, his expression blank.

Livestream viewers couldn’t hold back their laughter:

【Stealth meeting: FAILED.JPG】

【HAHAHAHAlaughed so hard I crushed my girlfriend! Bai Shen, you owe me a new one!】

【Two Wang Long Feng Zhudo they really think Bai Shen can’t hear them?!】

(Chinese idiom: "Two dragons, one phoenix"refers to a chaotic, poorly coordinated plan)

【What ability does Bai Shen have that dumbed down these veterans?】

【A psychic class? I’ve seen psychic streamsthey use hypnosis, but the success rate is low. Nothing like Bai Shen’s.】

【Got it! Bai Shen’s ability is roleplaythis time he’s acting as Nan Gong Wen Ya!】

(Nan Gong Wen Ya: A Chinese idiom meaning "playing the fool")

【It’s a battle of who outsmarts whom (LOL)】

...

“You twofinished scheming?” Bai Lian tilted his head, feigning confusion.

Ji Yunfeng and Pei Zhi Xin snapped their attention toward him.

“Kid! Keep your eyes on me! Don’t worryI won’t attack. I want a fair, one-on-one fight with you!” Pei Zhi Xin sneered coldly.

As he spoke, he turned and winked at Ji Yunfeng.

Ji Yunfeng glanced at Bai Lian, then at Pei Zhi Xinwhose eyes were nearly dried up from tensionand nodded:

“You go first! I’ll ambush from behind!”

The situation grew increasingly absurd. Their “elaborate” plan unfolded like a slapstick routine, leaving even Bai Lian struggling to keep track. He could only watch their performance.

Pei Zhi Xin suddenly spun and lunged at Bai Lian, steel-knuckled gloves materializing in his hands! The gloves’ spikes glinteda direct hit would turn its target into a sieve.

Despite his bulk, he moved swiftly, closing the distance instantly. His fist aimed squarely at Bai Lian’s head!

Bai Lian opened his mouth to speakbut an icy dagger tore through the void behind him! A shadowy figure slithered out of the wall!

Bai Lian’s gaze flickered toward Ji Yunfeng just as his stationary form dissolved into black mist, freezing into the floor.

Bai Lian’s eyes widened in mock horror.

“Hahaha! Did you really think we came here unprepared?” Pei Zhi Xin burst into arrogant laughter, his face twisted with triumph.

He stared at Bai Lian, all traces of his earlier dim-wittedness goneas if no skill had ever affected him.

Before he finished speaking, a triangular talisman seal appeared in his empty hand. He crushed itactivating its binding effect!

The air around Bai Lian solidified, trapping him mid-reactiona control-type talisman!

“Enough talk! Kill him and finish the mission!” The shadowy figure behind Bai Lian drove his dagger toward Bai Lian’s back!

Trapped between the fist and the blade, Bai Lian had no escape!

Faced with this dead end, Bai Lian still looked dazed. Had he miscalculated?

Suddenly, the corner of his mouth curled into a strange smile.

Thud!

The spiked glove and long knife struck Bai Lian simultaneouslythe sickening sound of tearing flesh echoed through the corridor!

Blood dripped from the blade and glove.

Seeing this, Ji Yunfeng and Pei Zhi Xin sighed in relief. In their coordinated strike, Bai Lian hadn’t even had time to use a lifesaving amulet like a Voodoo Doll.

“Finally finished the mission!” A smile spread across Pei Zhi Xin’s face. He raised his handand plucked out his own eyeballs.

Ji Yunfeng reverted to his normal form, his eyes also goneonly empty sockets remained.

“We’ll report to the captain later. We lost so much to kill this bastardeven gouged our eyes out.” Pei Zhi Xin tossed his eyeballs to the floor and crushed them underfoot.

He suddenly remembered something and scratched his head. “When we acted like that earlier... the captain won’t think we actually wanted to replace him, will he? He might cause trouble when we get back.”

Ji Yunfeng shook his head and patted his shoulder. “Don’t you know the captain? As long as we complete the mission, we’ll explain everything calmly. It was just an act for the missionhe won’t hold a grudge.”

The moment Ji Yunfeng learned of Bai Lian’s intelligence-reducing skill, he’d planned a countermeasure. Blindfolds or closing his eyes were too risky. To guarantee immunity, he removed his eyesperception-enhancing items could replace their function, and the organization’s healers could regenerate them after the dungeon.

“Kill and burn himdo it thoroughly.” Pei Zhi Xin bent down, eyeing the corpse on the ground.

Ji Yunfeng pulled out a black lighter, aimed it at the body, and pressed the triggerflames roared out like a flamethrower.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

“Great plan! Excellent execution!”

Applause rang outaccompanied by a familiar voicejust steps away.

Hearing it, Pei Zhi Xin and Ji Yunfeng whirled around, staring in the direction of the sound.
