PFRG: Chapter 131

[What happened in the arm wrestling just now? This girl won instantly?]

[Huh? In my impression, Mr Mosaic has always been very strong. What is going on?]

[…Who said this is Yue Ren? It can’t be, he is so fragile.]

[Have none of you heard of the Jazz team? The opponent is Diao Baiwei. If we compare it with strength alone, she should be ranked in the top 20 among all players!}

[I laughed when I heard it earlier. Qu Leng is an old fox. There is a girl in their team, but Sister Diao alone can match the fighting power of their entire team!]

[I don’t know about other things, but if Yue Ren’s appearance is really inserted in, I seem to see a type of beauty with high attack and low defense.]

[Why do you always talk about Yue Ren, Yue Ren? Who is it? I only know one Lou Yueren.

[Alas, this is really homophonic!]

Chi Ting couldn’t see the barrage in the live stream room. He repeatedly observed Yue Ren’s condition and confirmed that there was no substantial damage except for the faint red mark left on the arm. He felt a bit relieved without realizing it.

Seeing that the table top was unusable, he moved slightly to the side and looked at Qu Leng. “You won the first game. Who will compete against me in the second game?”

Qu Leng glanced behind him, and another member of the team walked out with understanding. “I’ll do it.”

Chi Ting nodded and waved him over.

The two of them sat face to face. Once they counted down from three, they simultaneously exerted force on their clasped hands.

It was like a repeat of the previous game. The result was decided right from the start.

The last member of the Jazz team was a very burly man. He saw Chi Ting’s handsome appearance and felt that he had won the game. This was until he was pressed on the table without any chance to fight back. Then he belatedly came to his senses.

He was obviously unwilling to give up and tried to regroup from this decided victory situation. However, after struggling a few times, he still couldn’t pull his hand out from Chi Ting’s control. He was pinned there like a mountain.

He looked up and found that Chi Ting, who held him there firmly, had no expression on his face. Even his tone of voice was calm and without many fluctuations. “In this case, it should be 1 to 1, right?”

“Yes, it is 1 to 1.” Qu Leng couldn’t help looking at Chi Ting again when speaking. There was a more exploratory look in his eyes.

Diao Baiwei might be the one with the strongest physical combat power in their team, but the players he recruited into the team weren’t bad. He didn’t underestimate the captain of the Dawn team, but there was a physical gap between the two sides. He thought his team member could at least fight a bit longer. He never expected that the process of instant kill would be even more quick and efficient than the one with Diao Baiwei.

So in the end, he still needed to resolve the situation.

The arm wrestling quickly entered the last round. Ji Xingque had already prepared for the battle in advance.

He tied the pink hair at the back of his head tighter, and there was a look of fighting spirit on his face. “Leave it to me, Captain. If it is a one-on-one fight, I will never embarrass you!”

“Yes,” Chi Ting responded. He thought for a while before reminding, “Be careful. That person isn’t easy to deal with.”

“Understood!” Ji Xingque had always taken Chi Ting’s every word to heart. He adjusted his state and walked down to sit facing Qu Leng.

Chi Ting watched them all the way. Then he noticed Yue Ren rubbing his wrist beside him, looking thoughtful. Chi Ting wondered what he was thinking and asked, “What are you looking at?”

Yue Ren massaged his delicate hand and smiled silently when he heard the words. “Maybe it is because of the similarity to birds. Look at Little Bird wearing the current outfit and looking so majestic and proud. Doesn’t he look like a fighting rooster?”

Before Chi Ting could speak, Ji Xingque gritted his teeth and said, “I heard it!”

Yue Ren pointed at him and laughed. “Look, it is even more like it.”

Ji Xingque: “…….” F*k!

Yue Ren knew when to stop and changed to a frank demeanor. “Focus, don’t be distracted. It is my fault that we lost that game. Now you have to work harder.”

“I will work hard even without you telling me.” After this period of contact, Ji Xingque was no longer fooled by Yue Ren’s tricks. He went back to adjust his state while cursing and put his hand on the table. “Come on!”

Compared to Ji Xingque’s impatience, Qu Leng seemed indifferent.

He slowly rolled up his sleeves a bit and made the same preparations. “Yes, we can start anytime.”

In the third game, Chi Ting took on the referee role that Qu Leng had previously played.

Countdown.

Three, two, one.

The other players present naturally knew that the current result might determine their life or death. Combine this with the instant kills in the previous two rounds, and their eyes were fixed on the two players from the beginning.

However, after holding their breaths for a long time, the only sound around them was the deep breathing and the weird and lively background sound of the arcade.

The two hands were tightly clasped together. For a moment, neither of them gave in.

This made the already tense atmosphere freeze for a moment.

“This guy actually…” The hearts of the Jazz team were pounding and they couldn’t hide the shock in their voices. “Sister Diao, the captain’s current strength should be…”

Diao Baiwei knew what he was referring to. She hummed beside him and confirmed, ‘The captain’s power has reached level 6.”

“So, that pink-haired guy actually managed to withstand the strength of level 6?” The Jazz team member almost cried out in shock. Fortunately, he covered his mouth with his hands when he realized and his expression instantly became complicated. “Sister DIao, we won’t lose, right?”

Diao Baiwei told him, “Look first. Don’t talk.”

As she spoke, her eyes remained fixed on the two of them.

The moment Qu Leng proposed a best of three arm wrestling match, she already knew what the other party was planning. Based on the strength of the three members of the Jazz team, putting aside the factor of individual skills and competing purely in strength, she and Captain Qu could basically be said to have a complete victory in these two rounds. Similarly, they only needed to win these rounds and the gift cards in the hands of the Dawn team would all belong to them.

There was nothing wrong with this plan originally, but no one expected that something surprising would happen when the third round occurred. The abilities of the two people in the Dawn team seemed to be much stronger than theirs.

Diao Baiwei won her game easily, which wasn’t surprising. But the second game that was lost seemed to proceed a bit too fast. The current third game…

As time passed, she looked at the two people who were still anxious in front of the table, frowned slightly, and subconsciously glanced in Chi Ting’s direction.

It was indeed surprising that the pink-haired young man could compete with their captain for so long. For some reason, she recalled the scene of the first game and inexplicably felt that the captain of the Dawn team might be even more powerful.

The background sound of the arcade sounded like a cut-off point, knocking on everyone’s hearts one after another.

Under the deadlock of no results for a long time, it seemed that even their breathing had subconsciously slowed down a lot.

In the silence, Song Xuefeng also raised his eyes and looked at Ji Xingque.

At this moment, the face that usually showed off its unrestrained expression was tense. It was obvious that he was really pouring his strength into it, and his smiling face was flushed red.

Compared with Qu Leng’s still calm expression on the opposite side, there seemed to be an illusion of being completely suppressed. However, judging from the fact that there was still no result, it was obvious that the situation on the field wasn’t as easy as the captain of the Jazz team showed.

“Who do you think will win?” Chi Ting stood there and watched. He seemed to be a lot less nervous than the others. After hearing Yue Ren’s question, he replied in as straightforward a manner as ever, “I don’t know. But now, I’m more worried about something else.”

Yue Ren was silent for a moment before nodding. “Indeed.”

Without saying anything explicitly, both of them had already shifted their gazes from the two figures at the table to a position further behind.

As far as the eye could see, the staff member in the pink doll costume sat there silently.

Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that he had been keeping this posture without moving since the beginning. In such a nearly static picture, it was easy to capture a sense of separation that was ready to happen.

“How much time is left?” Chi Ting asked.

“12 seconds,” Yue Ren asked casually.

During their conversation, a few more seconds passed.

No one spoke for a moment.

Rather than caring about the result of the arm wrestling, the two men’s attention was completely focused on the NPC.

8 seconds, 7 seconds, 6 seconds… 3 seconds, 2 seconds, 1…

The reminder to complete the settlement within 10 minutes was still fresh in his ears. The moment the countdown in his mind ended, the white beads had fallen into Chi Ting’s hands. At the same time, shadows rushed out from beside him in all directions under Yue Ren’s control.

They all headed straight towards the two figures on the field.

“Be careful!” Diao Baiwei had been waiting patiently for the result of the game. She never expected the Dawn team to suddenly attack. Her first reaction was to rush forward. Then her subsequent actions completely stopped when Qu Leng shouted, “Don’t move!”

It was just a momentary pause. She clearly saw the dark shadows pass by the two people confronting each other. Then she heard the sound of something being torn apart.

Diao Baiwei looked carefully and saw pink threads rushing out as if they had life. The dense and wriggling appearance made her feel numb instantly.

The staff member in the pink doll costume seemed unaware of the wounds on his body. The doll headgear had an expression as dull as his voice. Each word seemed like a rusty saw, cutting through their hearts again and again. “Dear players, you have worked hard in the game. It is time to say goodbye to you now. The Starry Sky Arcade will officially close soon. The staff member will assist you with the final settlement. Thank you for your cooperation. Dear players…”

The voice didn’t sound like one made by a human at all. It wasn’t just Diao Baiwei, but also the faces of the other players who turned pale at this moment.

It was also at this time that they realized that countless threads had crawled to their feet in the blink of an eye.

They were ready to make a move.
