“To be honest.” Lian Yu stared directly at the masked killer holding the gun and alerting them, then suddenly turned around looking at the fancy masked man on the wall screen with his green eyes. “I already told you that your programmer is a waste, but you still decide not to let me do it myself… Instead of having people spend time and effort to crack my program here, might as well blow up the control panel already.”
“Heh.” The masked man sneered, and from nowhere, there was an exquisite ceramic cup with hot steam in his hand. With his little finger slightly raised, the condescending look in his eyes made people itch. “I advise you not to have any crooked ideas… Is there a mechanism under the control panel? The hint is so simple…” The mask on his mouth opened a crack funnily, revealing the thin lips that were bloodless underneath. The masked man took a sip of the tea and said slowly: “Who would be fooled?”
Who else could it be, except you? Lian Yu shrugged casually, indicating that he couldn’t help a fool. What was under the control panel? Only that small wire tube to control the poison gas that Yao Jin placed there, which was the only thing they had to be cautious of at the moment. Now everything’s set up.
YaoJin tried his best to persuade himself to move his eyes away from Pan, but he couldn’t control his gaze. Cold sweat slid down his temples, and he didn’t bother to wipe it off. Pan’s waist is tied with seaweed, and a hefty iron ball is tied to his feet. He felt that he was being pulled by two strong forces all the time. In addition, he can feel the cold seawater and strong wind hitting his face from time to time. His face was as pale as the ceramic cup in the hands of the fancy masked man.
“I feel that he will snap soon.” The process of waiting for the masked killer in front of the control panel to decipher the program was really boring. Out of boredom, Lian Yu began to make small talk. He used his eyes to indicate that the person he was talking about was Pan. YaoJin naturally ignored him, and Cen Zhen also didn’t even pay any attention to him. In fact, Cen Zhen had not spoken for a long time.
In the end, ShouHe was the only one who responded out of humanitarianism: “Which do you mean? Your companion’s body or spirit?”
“Both. If we keep talking like this, I think Pan’s mental state will collapse before his body dies.”
“Why are you still laughing?” ShouHe asked, “You and him don’t have a good relationship?”
“I think we have an okay relationship… I laugh because I’m a bit perverted and I like to see others suffer.”
ShouHe: “…” This topic is a bit out of touch for him.
In the strange silence, Cen Zhen, who had become the background because of his silence, suddenly asked: “How long will it take for the progress bar to finish reading?”
“What progress bar?” ShouHe asked curiously. YaoJin also turned his head to look at Cen Zhen, with deep anger towards the fancy masked man in his red eyes. Only Lian Yu hummed as if he was recalling——
“Ten minutes.”
“Are they there?”
“Of course… they’re here!”
The masked man keenly noticed that something was wrong. He put down the teacup he used to show off and asked sternly: “What are you talking about? Let me give you one advice. If you want this person to live, don’t plan any tricks…”
Before he finished speaking, a series of sharp noises came from all directions of the room. The noise came from the monitor screen on the wall, which was uploaded from one monitor after another in the Slave Arena.
The sensor detected the slave chip was no longer under control and issued a loud warning. In addition, several monitors in the room were also roaring. Lian Yu frowned and covered his ears. YaoJin didn’t bother to ask his companions how they did it. He directly broke the ceiling above his head with his fist and exited upward in a straight line. He was determined to run to the deck to rescue Pan at all costs.
ShouHe was an outsider from another planet after all. He didn’t have enough tacit understanding with Cen Zhen and Lian Yu. His reaction was a beat slower than YaoJin’s. ShouHe looked at Cen Zhen who suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and was about to collapse on the ground. As Lian Yu helped him up halfway, he asked: “What happened? What’s the situation now? Where’s YaoJin going?”
“The chip control is lifted.” Cen Zhen said concisely. After he said these words, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his brain. He covered his forehead with a hiss and grabbed Lian Yu’s clothes with his other hand.
Lian Yu’s face changed instantly, “Cen Zhen!”
ShouHe: “…” Didn’t you say that you are a pervert and like to watch others suffer, and laugh while watching?
“I’m fine.” Cen Zhen opened one eye with difficulty, as if he wanted to explain something to ShouHe, but was interrupted by Lian Yu: “Don’t talk for now.” The Sentinel, who was so hypocritical, hugged his Guide into his arms and regretted letting ShouHe leave the bed to the werewolf Coco, even though the bed board was not very good.
“WHAT • DID • YOU • DO?” The fancy masked man who needed the most explanation was being completely ignored. He threw the cup to the ground angrily. Even with the mask covering it, his hideous tone made it easy to imagine his distorted face at the moment.
Cen Zhen raised his head, and the sarcasm in his eyes crushed the dignity of the masked man into dust. At this moment, the two masked killers who were used by the masked man to monitor this group of dishonest “slaves” suddenly trembled all over, and then fell to the ground like puppets with broken strings. As the masked killer in front of the control panel fell to the ground, the disguised interface on the control screen also mockingly changed back to its real interface-
The progress bar of removing the slave chip’s control has never been interrupted since the very beginning, and it is now openly at 100%.
Lian Yu gently stroked Cen Zhen’s forehead, while paying some attention to disgust the masked man: “That’s why I told you to blow up the control panel and put an end to it, but you refused tut tut…”
The masked man’s eyes were red with anger. Although his surroundings were originally very quiet, he frequently looked behind himself. Obviously, the buyers and sellers also discovered the slaves’ abnormality and ran over to demand an explanation and solution.
The biggest leverage in the masked man’s hand at this time – the seaweed man – could finally let go lightheartedly. Its IQ was not high, and it didn’t know that its master was in a very embarrassing situation at this time. It was just happy that it could get rid of the useless weight.
Pan had been so uncomfortable that he couldn’t even scream, and even felt lucky that he was finally no longer hanging in the air. He closed his eyes, a little regretful that he couldn’t see YaoJin before he died, but it seemed that YaoJin was with Cen Zhen and Lian Yu, so he should be safe.
During the rapid fall, he should’ve heard nothing except the wind, but he vaguely caught a syllable, a syllable that hit his soul directly —
“Pan!!” YaoJin was surrounded by nearly a hundred masked killers. They covered him with a huge iron cage the moment YaoJin rushed to the buyer’s level. To make the guests spend more money on the Slave Arena, the buyer’s level was full of surveillance screens. YaoJin could clearly see how the seaweed man let go of his seaweed, and how Pan fell helplessly in front of him.
But he can’t do anything.
