Chapter 344 System Crash
As soon as Mu Chengxuan’s words fell, the two men behind him walked towards Tang Xia ferociously. She frowned and did not speak. She just looked at Mu Chengxuan with a cold gaze.
“I really underestimated you. I didn’t expect you to not only be good at with your body and brain, but your ability to spread rumors is also top-notch,” Mu Chengxuan said with a cold smile.
Tang Xia only smiled faintly and said coldly, “You haven’t seen my other skills yet, huh.” Then, she looked at him with a slightly provocatively gaze.
Suddenly, as if suddenly remembering something, she put on an innocent look and said, “But I really didn’t spread any rumors. The system crash that I mentioned is true. No matter what, I will never joke about this kind of thing.”
Tang Xia’s face became serious immediately, causing Mu Chengxuan to become a little flustered. Just when the two men were about to lay their hands on Tang Xia, there was suddenly a gunshot at the door.
Mu Chengxuan shouted immediately, “Grab hold of Tang Xia first!” Tang Xia’s face turned blank when she heard the gunshot. The last thing she wanted to happen came into her mind immediately.
Hearing Mu Chengxuan’s command, the two men quickly turned around to grab hold of Tang Xia. At that moment when they touched her clothes, a bullet suddenly hit one of their hands.
“I will kill whoever dares to touch Tang Xia!” Mu Chengxuan heard a loud roar coming from behind him. At that instant, everyone in the basement froze on the spot.
Tang Xia knew this voice the best. The thing she worried about the most still happened eventually.
Mu Chengxuan quickly turned around when he heard the voice. He picked up his gun, and got ready to shoot whoever was behind him. However, he did not expect to come face to face with a muzzle.
“Why are you here!” Tang Xia eventually could not help but roar loudly. The two people beside her did not dare to step forward at all. The hand that suffered the gunshot was bleeding heavily and the man groaned in deep pain.
Mu Chengxuan was currently having a gun pointing at his head. He could not calm down at all. Cold sweat covered his body as he looked at this person. Yes, it was Ye Yifan.
“If I guessed correctly, you should be seriously injured now, right? I deliberately let you keep your life and you still dare to come here alone to save her?” Mu Chengxuan tried his best not to sound as scared as he was.
However, Ye Yifan sneered. He moved the gun down a bit and said in a cold voice, “Just because Tang Xia and I were either caught or seriously injured, you thought that there’s no way we can fight back, so you let your guard down?”
Two other men came quickly, ran in from behind and said respectfully, “Master Ye, the people here have all been taken care of. We have suppressed most of them.”
Hearing this, Ye Yifan nodded. Looking at the dead bodies of the system-assigned virtual characters sprawled all over the place, he turned and shouted at Tang Xia, “It’s over.”
Tang Xia walked out of the room and the two men did not dare to stop her. After all, they knew that they were taken down. Ye Yifan had changed into a set of clean clothes and looked as if he was not injured. However, until today, as long as she closed her eyes, she could still recall the sight of him covered in blood.
“A bunch of useless junk!” Mu Chengxuan scolded them for failing him. Tang Xia also shook her head helplessly as she looked at him.
“Forget it. Since we already have a clear winner and loser, let’s get out of here quickly. If we kill him, that painful feeling is unendurable. In a place like this, I believe Master Mu knows what it means to pay the price for the bet that you lost.”Read More chapter on our vi pnovel. com
Tang Xia deliberately let Mu Chengxuan learn how to be humble. She only spared his life because it was not easy in this industry. Mu Chengxuan glanced at her and slowly lowered his gaze.
“It’s indeed my fault. Right from the start, I shouldn’t have thought about bribing Tang Xia. Now, I’ve dug my own grave.” Then, Mu Chengxuan sighed helplessly.
Ye Yifan nodded and said coldly, “If you didn’t catch Tang Xia at the beginning, perhaps I wouldn’t have thought of doing a surprise attack and you guys might still have a chance of winning.”
One of them was filled with regrets, one was emotional. Tang Xia could not help feeling speechless as she looked at them. Looking at the bunch of people behind him who followed him to charge through the frontline, she quickly said, “Since they’ve lost, why hasn’t the system showed anything?”
Ye Yifan also frowned. They had destroyed even their home and Mu Chengxuan had personally admitted that they had lost. However, the system still did not respond.
Some people quickly pulled out the logout menu after hearing what she said. However, when they tried to log out, there was no response.
At that instant, everyone around them started to panic. They recalled what Tang Xia said earlier and some of them shouted loudly, “What’s happening! Did the system really crash? Are we going to be stuck here?”
Just when everyone was panicking, the whole world suddenly shook violently. Everyone got such a great shock that they froze for a while. Feeling lost, Tang Xia looked back and saw the dripping water in the basement freezing mid-air and the dust from all the fighting all froze mid-air as well.
Ye Yifan was shocked to see the virtual characters around them stop moving. Only the human streamers were left not knowing what happened exactly.
Even Mu Chengxuan was shocked and overwhelmed. He quickly went forward, grabbed Tang Xia’s arm, and asked sternly, “What’s going on!”
Both Tang Xia and Ye Yifan experienced this before. Last time, everything stopped when they were on the helicopter. However, that was just for a moment, it was nowhere as long as this time.
Ye Yifan could not help but say in a deep voice, “Is the system really destroyed?” Hearing this, Tang Xia’s whole body trembled. She naturally knew about this possibility. She quickly pulled out the system menu and chose to communicate with someone outside. However, there was no response.
“It’s no use. This time around, we are really trapped in this system.” Ye Yifan put down the gun in his hand directly. He was perhaps much calmer than he was during the last system crash.
As soon as the surrounding streamers heard that they were really unable to get out, they broke down instantly. They rushed towards Tang Xia and grabbed onto her. She was shocked by their sudden attack. “What are you guys doing!”
How could Ye Yifan allow them to touch Tang Xia? He fired shots in a circle around their legs and said in a slightly threatening tone, “All of you! Get away from Tang Xia!”Read More chapter on our vi pnovel. com
The gun threat caused the streamers to jump away immediately. However, they could not just let it go. They pointed at her and scolded, “This is all because of her! She said that the system will crash! She threatened us! She must be the one behind this! Let us go back now!”
Tang Xia did not know whether to laugh or cry. She looked at the two of them as if they were retards and said helplessly, “Even if I can destroy the system anytime I want, would I trap myself inside? Besides, we’ve already won! Are you guys dumb or am I dumb?”
The two of them became speechless instantly and could not say a word for a long time. Tang Xia thought about it for a while and said helplessly, “But I think it should be fine. The system was recovered very quickly last time. I think it shouldn’t take long this time. Let’s just wait patiently.”
Hearing this, everyone started to relax. They were all trapped in this world together, no one was in the mood to find fault in one another. Ye Yifan also kept his gun while Mu Chengxuan sat quietly at one side.
Ye Yifan and Tang Xia sat together. Ye Yifan rubbed his aching arm and asked casually, “Have you found Chu Tiankuo?”
Tang Xia was shocked. She then shook her head. However, a trace of desolation flashed across her eyes. Ye Yifan looked at her expression and understood what was going on. “But only Chu Tiankuo could do something like this.”
“But I don’t know what is going on exactly. I just said it casually, I didn’t expect it to really happen. Although I know that only he can do it, I really have nothing to do with this.”
Ye Yifan nodded. He patted her back to express his understanding. He then turned to look around at those people and said, “Everyone, keep on trying. Maybe we can go out suddenly.”
Then, Ye Yifan also tried to open the menu to see if he could go out. Everyone began to try after listening to what he said. However, the multiple attempts were all to no avail.
However, just when everyone was waiting in silence, there was suddenly a loud buzz-like bang that sounded throughout the entire world. Everyone could not take this high-pitch sound and struggled to cover their ears in pain.
Tang Xia did not expect something like this to happen. She tried to stand up by supporting herself against the wall. After looking around, she realized that there seemed to be something wrong with the virtual characters.
“Everyone, get away from the system-assigned people immediately!” Tang Xia quickly shouted at everyone. She then swiftly grabbed a gun from someone at the side.
No one expected this sudden change. This loud buzz seemed to have activated the entire system. All the virtual characters suddenly became crazy like zombies. The whole world started operating again and everything started moving.
However, the virtual characters did not care what they were after. As long as they saw a streamer, they would start to tear them apart crazily. Tang Xia held onto the gun and started shooting those people. Seeing this, Ye Yifan and Mu Chengxuan quickly helped her.
After a few loud gunshots, the virtual characters all fell to the ground. Tang Xia and the rest then heaved a sigh of relief. Mu Chengxuan wiped away the sweat on his forehead and questioned Tang Xia angrily, “What the hell is going on? Why did that bunch of ghost-like things start to attack us?”
Tang Xia could not stand it anymore as well. She glared back at him and responded, “You’re asking me, but who can I ask! I’m not the system, how am I supposed to know why they started acting like crazy!”
She only mentioned it casually and did not expect it to really happen.
