Chapter 122: You Fool Me, I Fool You
“Do you believe that?” Shi Xu leaned back a bit.
“Why wouldn’t I?” Yu Jiang’s voice showed no emotion,
“I guess, except for him saying he didn’t participate in bullying female players, everything else is true. After teaming up, you can see your teammate’s health points, so he is indeed in low health status.”
This kind of vile and cowardly person can’t bring himself to strike hard at himself; it must have been his companions who did it.
“If I can kill his teammates, he gets a healing skill in return and can take the chance to escape. His teammates are even stronger, so they can rob supplies, playing both sides like a wallflower. Let’s leave him hanging for a while.”
Yu Jiang and the others weren’t in a hurry, continuing to eat, while the other side got anxious.
Moment of Tenderness: “Big Shot, have you considered it? When are you coming over? Their fatigue value is high right now; they can’t go far. This opportunity won’t come again.”
“If you don’t take this job, I’ll contact someone else. I’m really not a scammer! I even told you how many people they have.”
To make Yu Jiang believe, the last message was sent as voice; the trembling in his voice showed he was very anxious.
Yu Jiang picked up the thermos cup, took a sip of the milk tea she made with tea and milk, then replied,
“Helping you heal isn’t hard, but how do I know you’re not scamming me together with your companions?”
Agreeing too easily might make the other side suspicious.
The other side was silent for a while, then sent a picture of his blood-soaked clothing, with no one else around him.
Moment of Tenderness: “Big Shot, I’m almost done for! What’s in it for me to scam you? Just give me a straight answer—yes or no!”
Inside the RV, it was so quiet that only his voice messages and the sound of snow falling outside the window could be heard; Yu Jiang’s teammates didn’t speak, waiting for her next move.
Yu Jiang figured Moment of Tenderness’s companions planned to kill him if he couldn’t lure her over, to eliminate any risk of information leakage.
While Moment of Tenderness was getting anxious enough to make his head explode, she sent a message:
“Fine, but you better not scam me.”
Moment of Tenderness saw the team invite pop up and suddenly shivered.
The next instant, ecstasy and excitement filled his brain.
“It’s done! She added me to the team!” Moment of Tenderness shouted to his companions.
Too excited, his fingers trembled as he clicked to join the team.
The leader God Blocker, God Killer also smiled.
Take her out, and next time the leaderboard is his! This is simpler than robbing other leaderboard players, after all, she’s just an alchemist.
They had prepared all morning, gone all-in, pooling two-thirds of their assets to buy a space domain item and level 3 armor that resists bullets and sharp blades.
Space domain item: after use, it creates an air wall that separates outsiders or monsters.
Even if she had teammates secretly following, it wouldn’t matter; without real skills, they wouldn’t dare to scheme against three famous leaderboard players.
“Everyone hide well; don’t let her notice anything before she enters the ambush zone.”
God Blocker, God Killer coldly instructed, then turned to continue brainwashing Moment of Tenderness,
“As long as this works, we can live as gloriously as these leaderboard players from now on.”
Moment of Tenderness nodded, fanaticism flashing across his pale face.
He was really fed up with being ordered around in the team and having to please his companions.
Best if both sides die, and all the supplies are his.
At this time, on the other side.
Yu Jiang first left Shi Xu’s team, then teamed up with Moment of Tenderness. When the other side urged a second time, they had also packed up.
“Early this morning, someone private messaged several players in our merchant caravan, offering high prices for clothing with defense and damage reduction, very urgently. It can’t be such a coincidence, right?”
Wholesale King Wang Defa was a bit worried, “Will it affect your business?”
Yu Jiang shook her head, “Besides defense, do the clothes you sell have any other effects?”
Not instance time, yet willing to pay high prices for defense clothing—indeed rare.
Wholesale King Wang Defa waved her hand, “No, we won’t sell higher-level armor.”
Yu Jiang got it: slit throats, don’t stab kidneys.
Useless even in front of poison rain.
Shi Xu still had a tracking card in hand, directly locating Yu Jiang.
Wholesale King Wang Defa and Purple Butt Can Do It went along; with their good vehicle on the parallel road, it wasn’t safe to act separately.
Yu Jiang drove ahead, following the teammate’s location.
Probably to make it realistic, Moment of Tenderness kept sending messages now and then, telling her about the goal’s situation.
He also tried to probe for info on what rewards there are for killing a player marked by a judgment card.
She didn’t even look, staring at the red dot on the map the whole time, as if Raccoon Supermarket was beckoning her.
Soon, Yu Jiang arrived at an area of abandoned old houses, with the road running through the middle—perfect for an ambush.
The few people hiding in the shadows saw an RV approaching, their eyes turning red with anticipation, waiting for the scene of the RV being stopped by the roadblock nails and getting its tires burst.
However, they underestimated this RV’s setup; the shield that auto-recovers 10% daily didn’t even drop 5% here.
Yu Jiang just played along for a bit, then asked in the team channel,
“Where is he? Still hiding nails in the snow, right?”
Moment of Tenderness saw his teammates moving and continued to divert The King Called Me to Patrol the Mountain’s attention,
“Big Shot, I really don’t know! They must have placed them before. I only have 30 health points left. As we agreed, you heal me, and I’ll immediately give you their nicknames and player numbers.”
According to their plan, scam the healing skill first, then strike.
Moment of Tenderness watched the red dot representing The King Called Me to Patrol the Mountain approaching again, his heart filled with uncontainable excitement.
Five minutes later, the RV pulled over on the road; ahead was Moment of Tenderness’s vehicle. For realism, the snow covering it and its wretched look really seemed legit.
Yu Jiang got out of the vehicle. To withstand the severe cold, only her two eyes were exposed; her face couldn’t be seen, only roughly judging her figure—not the burly, strength-type.
The few players relaxed, feeling a quick battle was still very feasible.
Yu Jiang found Moment of Tenderness behind a single-layer rundown house with thatched roof and stone walls, and straightforwardly gave him the healing skill.
“Tell me their info, and I’ll give you a day’s survival supplies.” Her voice was indifferent.
Moment of Tenderness, who had just looked grateful, suddenly widened his eyes and panic-strickenly looked behind her.
Yu Jiang’s mouth twitched; he acted pretty well. His companions had surrounded them, yet he still pretended to distance himself.
“Want our info? Why go through all this trouble.”
The leader player’s red nickname had a very conspicuous arrow marker. Seeing Yu Jiang turn around, he arrogantly whistled,
“We’re right here.”
Yu Jiang didn’t bother listening to their nonsense like “hand over the supplies if you’re smart,” and meaningfully interrupted with a cast,
“All of you are here—that’s perfect.”
Today she brought Purple Butt Can Do It, hoping for some good luck.
There’s another chapter later; it’s an extra update!
Thank you all very much for the tips and votes~
