Game Advent: I am the Monster King Harvester
Chapter 115 What if I don’t join?
As the voice fell, the wretched man suddenly spat out a large mouthful of blood, and the second half of the sentence was blocked in his throat.
Then the chest-piercing blade popped out from the flesh and blood, vibrating buzzingly for a moment and then there was no movement.
Bai Miao picked it up immediately and felt that the entire blade was burning hot. After a brief inspection, he found that it was temporarily banned from use.
It seems that the person outside the door is far more capable than her and can actually stop the fight remotely.
She narrowed her eyes slightly, put away the chest-piercing sword, and immediately turned to look at the door of the confinement room.
As expected, the man was Gu Dongsheng with a gloomy face.
Following behind him were Du Lin and others, who rushed in aggressively.
Bai Miao slowly stood up and stared at him: "Mr. Gu, are you so anxious?"
Gu Dongsheng was silent for a moment, then said unhappily with a sullen face: "It would have been better if you had joined us in the morning, so that we could have avoided this whole mess."
Seeing that Bai Miao was about to refute, he pretended to shout at the kidnappers, as if to cover up something: "Look at what you have done! Get out of here!"
Bai Miao snorted and didn't say anything for the time being. He crossed his arms and watched them perform.
After hearing this, the two men who were cowering in the corner hurriedly got up, pulled up the kidnapper who was knocked unconscious by the knife, and the dying wretched man, and supported each other as they ran out the door.
When one of them tried to pull someone else, he accidentally exposed a part of his upper arm.
Bai Miao took a quick glance and was immediately attracted.
Because she found that the man had a tattoo on his arm, which was exactly the same as the tattoo on the side of the wretched man's neck!
The tattoo was of two flamboyant butterflies, which made Bai Miao feel somewhat familiar.
She continued to observe calmly, and only after watching those people escape did she turn her gaze to Gu Dongsheng.
At this time, his expression eased a little, but his voice was still cold: "Let's talk again?"
Bai Miao frowned subconsciously, but then he thought that there were still questions that needed his answers, so he took the monsters out the door.
Two minutes later, she was back in the office she had been to in the morning.
This time was different from the morning. Gu Dongsheng did not leave her aside to drink tea alone. Instead, he invited her to sit at the tea table and warmly handed her some fruit.
Bai Miao really didn't understand what he was doing. A slap in the face and then a sweet date?
Or are you trying to lay the groundwork to prove that everything just now was a misunderstanding?
But as soon as this idea came into being, it was quickly dispelled by reality.
When Gu Dongsheng stretched out his hand to hand him the fruit, Bai Miao saw a black pattern on the inside of his right wrist, which was half a wing.
Is it the same butterfly tattoo as the kidnappers?
Bai Miao suddenly remembered that she had accidentally caught a glimpse of the edge of the tattoo when he pushed the teacup and reached out to her in the morning, but she didn't pay much attention to it at that time.
That's why she felt familiar when she saw the patterns on the kidnappers' bodies just now.
Now she was almost certain that the group of people were sent by Gu Dongsheng.
At first Bai Miao thought that if those were really his people, he would not be stupid enough to go and rescue them personally and expose his identity.
But now that I think about it, the other party might be taking advantage of this and deliberately causing misunderstanding.
It seems that the saying is true: the old fox is always the most cunning.
But he probably didn't expect the tattoo to be discovered.
As for this butterfly tattoo, is it the symbol of some organization?
Bai Miao frowned slightly, thinking that maybe it was related to the Demon-Subduing Division faction that she wanted to know about.
It was a good thing that she could take this opportunity to explore a little.
But looking again, Gu Dongsheng was still holding the fruit, obviously waiting for her to take it.
It seemed that as long as she accepted it, she would tacitly forgive him for sending people to kidnap her.
But Bai Miao didn't buy it. He simply waved his hand to reject him, took out the "Jade Cicada" and asked directly: "Mr. Gu, why did you give me this this morning?"
"Because I know it can help you," Gu Dongsheng said calmly, silently putting down the fruit in his hand, "As I said before, there are many benefits to joining us."
He signaled the Jade Cicada with his eyes and said to Bai Miao, "This thing can make monsters obedient. You should have experienced this, right?"
Bai Miao roughly understood what he meant. As long as he joined his camp, he would have the power to control some monsters.
The bargaining chip to control these monsters is undoubtedly this small jade handle.
Bai Miao recalled Qingxie's expression when he saw Yuchan, and looked at the little thing and muttered, "Does it control the life of the monster?"
Gu Dongsheng didn't explain much, just said: "Not entirely, but you can understand it this way now."
The implication is that you can't tell her now.
Bai Miao understood and asked tentatively: "Do you have a lot of these?"
"Yes, they hold the power of life and death at certain times." He smiled, as if he had already won. "So you want to reconsider it?"
Bai Miao tried to interpret the meaning of Gu Dongsheng's words.
Could it be that as long as this jade handle is in hand, not only can one clear the dungeon and get the reward, but even kill the BOSS easily?
Although we still don’t know what methods they used.
Is it similar to the plot in novels about cultivating immortals, where the soul and blood are extracted and sealed in a jade artifact?
Or is it that the material of this jade is special and can absorb the souls of monsters?
But either way, the result is the same.
This will be of great benefit to Bai Miao's current goals.
She wanted to clear the tomb guardian beast's copy, or even kill the tomb guardian beast for revenge. If she could borrow their power, it would be easier to achieve her goal.
No wonder when she was about to leave in the morning, Gu Dongsheng was calm and said that she might change her mind. Was this the reason?
But when Bai Miao thought about it carefully, he felt something was not right.
Because being able to hold the lives of many monsters in one's hands is a bit too outrageous.
Will such an existence be allowed under the rules of the monster world?
But if this is not true, it cannot explain Qingfei's reaction.
When he saw the jade cicada, he immediately knelt down and begged for mercy!
Of course, one possibility cannot be ruled out, that is, Gu Dongsheng colluded with the monster and deliberately acted for her.
But Bai Miao thought that he was not important enough to make Gu Dongsheng go to so much trouble to set up such a plan.
However, this jade cicada must be very important, but she doesn't know the full picture yet, and Gu Dongsheng's words are probably exaggerated to attract her to join.
So which faction does Gu Dongsheng represent?
Based solely on the current information, it can be speculated that humans who can control the lifeblood of monsters are either invincible or the monsters defeated by them have their lives controlled by them.
Or you can make a deal with the big boss of the demon world and get the weaknesses of many monsters.
But Bai Miao thought about it and always felt that sealing his lifeline in jade and being ready to control the monsters at any time was a bit arrogant.
From this point of view, Gu Dongsheng is very likely a member of the Troublemaker Faction who only respects the strong.
Then whether she joins his camp or not is something she needs to consider carefully.
After all, when it comes to stealing spiritual treasures, being in two camps requires completely different methods.
However, before making a decision, Bai Miao wanted to make one final test.
She asked Gu Dongsheng directly: "What if I don't join you?"
Unexpectedly, Gu Dongsheng just smiled, and then said to her coldly: "You have no choice. Didn't you notice that something was wrong with your body after you came out of that sack?"
Bai Miao's face suddenly changed after hearing this.
