The Butcher, in front of everyone, skinned Liu Han alive.
With one hand, he grabbed Liu Han, and with the other, he tore at Liu Han's face. Amid Liu Han's piercing screams and terrified eyes, he ripped off Liu Han's skin entirely!
Blood splattered everywhere.
The hellish scene almost made Fang Bai and Bai Shuiji vomit!
Even some guild members in the distance, though obscured by the dark curtain, could vaguely make out the scene, sending chills down their spines!
Under the dim red light, Zhao Yi suddenly turned around and smiled at them.
Half of his face hidden in the shadows looked as terrifying as a fierce ghost!
They shivered and stumbled as they fled downstairs!
"The guiding quest is completed. Do you want to go back?"
Looking at the terrified Fang Bai and Bai Shuiji, Zhao Yi said earnestly:
"Don't worry, I'm not the kind of ruthless person. Killing is quite difficult for someone as kind and soft-hearted as me."
Fang Bai cautiously glanced at Zhao Yi.
Kind?
Soft-hearted?
Killing is difficult for you?
Are you kidding me?
If he hadn't seen Zhao Yi casually kill two people just now, he might have been fooled by Zhao Yi's harmlessly handsome face!
"Anyway, these two attribute points are thanks to you, so I must thank you!"
"As long as it's not my life, everything else is negotiable!"
Fang Bai gritted his teeth as he spoke. The situation had developed to this point, and he roughly understood that Zhao Yi was no ordinary person!
You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author.
He should have realized it earlier.
How could the strongest person who emerged from thousands be someone kind-hearted?
But Zhao Yi's previous dungeon live stream, where he always brought along Yang Linlin, made all the viewers think he was a pushover.
The four of them headed towards the guild's base. On the way, they saw many players already starting to transport supplies.
Fang Bai and Bai Shuiji walked behind Zhao Yi in silence for a while. Fang Bai looked up at Zhao Yi and Tian Tian ahead and suddenly said:
"Zhao Yi..."
Zhao Yi turned back.
"What's up?"
Fang Bai's expression was a bit conflicted.
"You killed Xiang Weishan, and that might... cause some trouble!"
"I heard from a friend before that Xiang Weishan has an older brother, also a member of the rogue guild. He joined early and is part of the core group. Although no one saw you personally kill Xiang Weishan, you completed the Butcher's game, so his death is inevitably linked to you!"
"I'm worried he might retaliate against you... In this matter, we really can't help you, so be careful!"
Fang Bai's small team didn't have much backing.
Precisely because of this, someone like Zhao Yi was a rare find for them!
Having gone through the Clown quest and the Butcher quest together, he saw Zhao Yi's abilities and showed Zhao Yi his sincerity.
Fang Bai, even under competitive conditions, helped Zhao Yi pack his food, proving he was completely different from ungrateful, cowardly people like Liu Han.
"I'll be careful."
He wasn't surprised that Xiang Weishan had a backer. Anyone with a bit of sense could guess that.
In a world without legal constraints, gathering a group of people in such a short time couldn't rely solely on not-so-impressive strength.
Zhao Yi returned to the guild base, entered his room, turned on the computer, and began searching for the name Sun Baibai.
The Hell Game forum recorded many things about the Chaotic Realm, so maybe he could find some clues in the posts!
But after going through almost all the posts about 'Sun Baibai,' Zhao Yi found nothing.
Those named Sun Baibai were either NPCs from other places or players.
Rubbing his temples, Zhao Yi fell into deep thought.
Thinking is the fastest way to solve his doubts and calm himself down.
Tasks issued by NPCs are usually designed.
This means the Butcher's daughter couldn't have died inexplicably in an unknown gutter.
Even if she did die in a gutter, she would definitely turn into a fierce ghost causing chaos!
Zhao Yi pondered for a while and took out the recording device given by the Butcher.
He clicked play.
A noisy conversation came through.
[Baibai, has the train arrived at Hanging Valley Town?]
[Dad... it's so cold here...]
[Cold? Baibai, are you in Hanging Valley Town now?]
[I'm... I don't know... I can't see, sob sob...]
[Baibai! What happened? Don't cry, tell Dad, Dad will figure something out!]
[Sob sob Dad... I... they... I don't want to go to Hanging Valley Town...]
[What's going on, Baibai, tell Dad clearly.]
[Dad... Baibai is so cold... can you come and take Baibai home?]
[Okay, Baibai, where are you? Dad will come get you now!]
[I'm at... at...]
[Hello? Baibai? Where are you? Baibai! Speak up! Don't scare Dad! Baibai?!]
[...]
The two voices were urgent.
Even from the recording, a few useful pieces of information could be gathered.
1. Sun Baibai boarded a train to Hanging Valley Town.
2. The Butcher wasn't with his daughter, Sun Baibai.
3. Something must have happened during the train's journey.
Zhao Yi opened the system map.
Most of the map between their guild area and Hanging Valley Town was undeveloped and blacked out.
Those areas needed to be unlocked through quests.
So he couldn't go there now.
It seemed the Butcher's quest had to be put on hold for now.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yi opened the system again to check the latest world quest.
There were still a few days until the next month's dungeon update, so he decided to see if this quest was something he could get involved in.
