"Who's there?" Huang Dachui was the first to shout, "Don't hide, come out and face us..."

"…come out and fight you fair and square?" Feng Bujue finished the sentence for him, cutting him off, "Hmph…spouting lines like that is just too naive, isn't it?"

His voice floated around, sometimes near, sometimes far, now high, now low, making it impossible to pinpoint his exact location.

The method he used to create this effect was—using the voice-changing and amplification function of the [Deceptive Pocket Watch], while moving at high speed and constantly changing the volume of his voice.

Although doing this was a bit tiring, it did achieve the desired effect of mystification. Of course, to pull this off, there was a prerequisite…the visibility around them had to be very low.

"Friend…from the sound of your words…was that robot you sent?" The Alkaline Man's reaction was clearly different from Huang Dachui's. A pro was a pro; his opening question was a substantial one.

"That's right." Feng Bujue gave a definite answer, adding, "And…the disease you're currently afflicted with can only be cured by me."

This sentence…was also true.

During the time Musashi Koganai was concocting the Infected Fighter No. 1, Brother Jue took the time to search out all the remaining Z-virus stock solution and antitoxin serum from the Aleph Corporation building. Then, he had Koganai equip the Infected Fighter No. 1 with all the virus…

The bullets and miniature missiles fired by the Infected Fighter were all virus carriers. Once they hit a surface, they would vaporize into a gaseous virus. In other words…even if the Infected Fighter's attacks didn't directly hit the members of the Golden War Hammer team, it didn't matter. As long as the ammunition exploded near them, it would still achieve the purpose of infection, making it impossible to defend against.

As for the Z-virus antitoxin serum…Brother Jue only kept a small portion for himself, putting it in his bag in case of emergency. The rest of the serum was destroyed by him.

"Let me guess…" the Alkaline Man said in a low voice, "…the true nature of this 'disease'…is the Z-virus?"

"Quick on the uptake, aren't you?" Feng Bujue smiled. "Then why don't you guess what I'm going to say to you next?"

"If everything you've said so far is true, then I believe the only reason you're communicating with us is to 'humiliate' us," the Alkaline Man replied.

"Very good, based on that reasoning alone, you can be considered quite the character." Feng Bujue praised.

Before his voice faded, before the Alkaline Man could say anything, Huang Dachui snorted coldly, "Hmph…who do you think you are? A shadowy figure, what right do you have to criticize the vice-captain of our Golden War Hammer team?"

"Oh? He's the vice-captain, is he…" Feng Bujue continued, "Don't tell me you're the captain…"

"What if I am!" Huang Dachui roared.

"Then that's really…" The next second, Feng Bujue's voice was already behind Huang Dachui, "…convenient…"

The moment the word "convenient" left his mouth, a dagger (Bell's Everyday Knife) was already against Huang Dachui's throat.

When the Alkaline Man, Odd Fighter, and Xuan Ling Wangzhe came to their senses, Brother Jue had already used a very standard hostage-taking posture to restrain their Golden War Hammer team's captain from behind, and said, "Everyone, calm down, let's have a chat."

"You…you…" This time, Huang Dachui panicked. The rifle in his hand couldn't hit an enemy at this distance and position; and in terms of physical ability…Huang Dachui's C-level Fighting specialization was really not worth mentioning. The possibility of breaking free with his own bare hands was almost zero.

"I say…Captain, judging by your arrogance just now…I thought you were the kind of person with boundless courage." Feng Bujue was also a bit surprised by Huang Dachui's reaction. He sneered, "So you're chickening out already…"

"Friend, do you think it makes sense to take a hostage in this situation?" On the other side, the Alkaline Man stared at Brother Jue, approaching step by step and saying.

"Doesn't it?" Feng Bujue replied with a smile, "Then why don't you just attack?"

He had hit the nail on the head. Even if they only used the hostage as a shield, it would be meaningful.

"Okay…" the Alkaline Man hesitated for two seconds, then continued, "…what do you want to talk about with us?"

"Heh…" Feng Bujue responded, "I just want to…play a game with you guys."

"Ridiculous!" Xuan Ling Wangzhe interjected at this time, "If you want to fight, then fight, don't play these tricks!"

"Fight? Is there any need for me to fight you?" Feng Bujue laughed. "You've all been infected with the Z-virus, and you'll all be wiped out in three hours, what's there to fight?" He paused, "By the way, the only antitoxin serum in this scenario is all in my bag. Unless I'm willing to take it out and give it to you, even if I die, you'll all be dead anyway."

"So…I don't understand…" the Alkaline Man took a few more steps closer, continuing, "Since you've already gone this far, why even show yourself?" His reaction was also quite sharp, "You should stay as far away from us as possible. As long as you stall for three hours, your team will win, right?"

"That's right." Feng Bujue replied, "But I don't want to win so quickly."

"What are you saying?" In this second, Odd Fighter also walked up to the front and said, "What exactly do you mean?"

"Let's put it this way…" Feng Bujue said, "I have some grudges to settle with the Boss of this scenario, and I don't want to leave the scenario so quickly, but…I don't want to be disturbed by you, and I don't want my teammates to be disturbed by you either." At this point, he paused for half a second, "Therefore, I came up with this method."

"Ha! What a joke!" Xuan Ling Wangzhe sneered, "You expect us to believe such nonsense?" He snorted coldly, "Just like what Brother Jian said, if you really did what you said, then is there any need to show yourself? Just find a place to hide and wait for us to die, right?" His eyes sharpened, "In my opinion…you didn't infect us with any Z-virus at all, right? You just infected us with some ordinary bacteria, and then ran out to lie and set a trap for us to jump into."

"It's your freedom to think that way…" Feng Bujue replied, "It's also your freedom to participate in my game or not…" His tone sounded confident, "I'll say it again…without my antitoxin serum, you're all doomed to die, and even if you kill me, it won't solve the problem."

"Then tell us first…" the Alkaline Man interjected at this time, "…what is the content of your so-called game?"

"Very simple." Feng Bujue replied, "After I leave you guys, I'll find a hidden, safe place, and take out four doses of antitoxin serum and hide them there; then, I'll leave some clues all over the city to guide you to find that location." He paused for two seconds, "If you guys can't find the antidote within three hours, then goodbye…but if you guys can find it, then, congratulations, the game continues."

After he finished speaking, the Alkaline Man was silent for a moment, then continued, "Two questions…the first, is what my teammate said…" He looked at Xuan Ling Wangzhe, "How do we know that you infected us with the Z-virus?" He paused slightly, "Second, even if we are indeed infected with the Z-virus, even if you really want to prolong the scenario to settle grudges with the scenario Boss…how can we be sure that you will really put the 'antidote' in the place you promised?"

"That's right!" Odd Fighter also responded, "Who knows if you'll use a bunch of 'clues' to trick us into running around, and end up leaving nothing behind."

"Heh…I understand your doubts, but…you should understand without me saying it, these two points can't be proven by 'saying' alone." Feng Bujue replied, "Also…I don't need to prove anything, I'm just describing the situation and leaving the choice to you. Whether to believe it or not, whether to do it or not, it's all up to you…"

Brother Jue's gaze swept across the faces of the three professional players and smiled, "In short…if you believe that you are indeed infected with the Z-virus, and only I have the antidote…then you only have three options at the moment—one, swarm me, hoping to catch me and successfully force me to hand over the antidote; two, find and annihilate our entire team within three hours; three, play this game with me."

He was very considerate, saving the other party a lot of time for thinking and analysis.

"Hmph…I think…these three can be tried one by one." As the Alkaline Man replied, he gave his two teammates a look.

The next second, the figures of the three people quickly窜 out, quickly surrounding Brother Jue.

"You're thinking too much." Feng Bujue didn't seem flustered, as he replied, he pushed Huang Dachui forward.

While Dachui was still stumbling forward, Brother Jue had already stepped up, like a firecracker, he rushed into the sky.

"Don't let him run!" The Alkaline Man shouted loudly, and he had already jumped into the air.

In the same second, Odd Fighter also made the same reaction; and Xuan Ling Wangzhe's long-range skills had already chased after Brother Jue before the two of them.

However…the three of them couldn't even touch Brother Jue's toes.

Just like when he appeared, Feng Bujue's figure suddenly appeared from the fog, and suddenly disappeared into the thick fog, like a ghost, traceless…

"Damn…" The Alkaline Man landed, and said with a solemn expression, "If this guy doesn't have some special stealth skill, he must be extremely fast and possess superb aerial movement skills…"

"Jian…Brother Jian…" Until this time, the frightened Huang Dachui opened his mouth and said, "What should we do now?"

This question was also what Odd Fighter and Xuan Ling Wangzhe were thinking at the moment.

"What else can we do…" The Alkaline Man replied in a helpless tone, "The other party has already helped us sort out the three options…" He smiled bitterly, "Heh…of course, there is a fourth option, which is to gamble…gamble that what we are infected with is not the 'Z-virus', and ignore the effect of this [Disease]."

"This…" Odd Fighter continued, "I'm afraid we can't afford to gamble…"

"That's right, we can't afford to gamble." The Alkaline Man said, "So we can only do what that man said…and play his 'game'."
