A Race to (Be) The Top

Ling Xiaolu pursed his lips, walking alone to Ji Meng in the crowd.

The cheering people fell silent.

Dou Kou wanted to take Fenglong as his own, but also couldn't bear to part with Ling Xiaolu, a rare favorite, so he still wanted to save it in vain.

"kid……"

As soon as he opened his mouth, the second half of the sentence was blocked by Ling Xiaolu's sharp eye knife.

Dou Kou stroked the back of his hand embarrassingly. This time he offended a little bit deeply, and he may have lost a lot of favor with the children. He would have to spend more energy to please and appease him, which he knew very well.

But he is a businessman after all, whether he can get Ling Xiaolu is unknown, but taking this valley and contracting all the dragon scales that this field leader refresh point will drop in the future is a certainty, and he can calculate this account more clearly.

After Ling Xiaolu gave Dou Kou a hard look, he walked to Ji Meng's side.

The unknown soldier who killed Zhenjiu took two steps back in panic. The trumpet protected by Zhenjiu not only had a close relationship with Ji Meng, but also Lizheng's only apprentice.After offending so many big bosses at once, can he still hang out in this game?

However, Ling Xiaolu never glanced in his direction, he held onto Ji Meng's arm tightly: "Let's go."

Ji Meng summoned the flying dragon on the spot, grabbed Ling Xiaolu's waist with one long arm, carried him onto the dragon's back, and controlled the dragon to take off in full view.He ignored the crowd around him, and was stingy with giving them a look.

The people on the ground gradually became smaller, and within a few seconds they became the size of ants, as if one foot could wipe out their entire army. Ling Xiaolu hated himself for not having such ability.

"Where are you going?" Ji Meng asked after flying out for a certain distance.

Ling Xiaolu didn't know.

"Where will Zhenjiu go after death?"

Ji Meng turned the dragon's head, and the flying dragon swooped in another direction.

The landing site is the only prison island in the game. All black names who have not had time to wash off their murderous aura will be sent to be imprisoned here after death, and they will not be freed until their murderous aura is cleared.

It sounds cruel, but after all, there are very few people in the game who take pleasure in killing. Most of the people imprisoned are released within a day and a half.

It wasn't until he landed that Ling Xiaolu realized that something was wrong with Ji Meng.

"Why is your name also black?"

Just now in the valley, Ji Meng did not seldom kill people, forcibly killing the golden name into a black name.

"no big deal."

Ji Meng opened the mall, and after a while, there was a bottle of golden medicine in his hand.He raised his head and drank it down, and the name changed back to the original.

"It turns out that a black name can cover a gold name. Is this medicine expensive?"

"generally."

Ling Xiaolu translated it in Ji dialect in his mind, and Ji Meng's "general" = "very expensive!"

After washing his murderous energy, Ji Meng began to question Ling Xiaolu Xingshi.

"What about you, why do you always make some dubious friends?"

"Me," Ling Xiaolu choked, "how can I make friends who are not good or bad? You are the only friend I have in the game so far!"

Ji Meng's face softened slightly: "What about Zhenjiu?"

"My brother!"

"Divorce?"

"My master!"

"Dou Kou?"

Ling Xiaolu lowered his face: "Don't mention him, the father-son relationship between us has been severed!"

Ji Meng secretly compared the intimacy levels of friends, brothers, master-disciple and father-son relationship in his heart, and angrily found that he seemed to be only in front of Dou Kou who had severed the relationship.

The guard at the gate of the prison was a dog in a police uniform. Seeing the two approaching, what he opened his mouth was actually human words.

"What are you doing!" It was quite fierce.

Ji Meng threw out two hundred gold coins: "Visiting the prison, two people."

Gouzi picked up the money, changed his face, and wagged his tail into a propeller: "Please, the two of you, the prison guards—!"

Ling Xiaolu: "..."

Prison guards can be bought with such a small amount of money. Is the security system of this prison really reliable? !

He followed Ji Meng in, and along the way, he found many cats in the yard, in groups of three or four, gathered under the wall and staring at them maliciously.

"Why are there so many cats in the prison?" He asked puzzled.

"Shh," Ji Meng hinted at him in a low voice, "this can't be mentioned."

After going up one floor after another, I finally saw the familiar bird head outside the heavily guarded cell.

"Zhenjiu, are you okay?" Ling Xiaolu was very excited.

"How did you get here?"

"We came to see you, I thought I'd never see you again!"

Zhenjiu couldn't reach out to touch his head through the narrow iron window.

"Fool, it's not really dead."

What Ling Xiaolu cared most about was whether he could go out.

"Can you still come out? How long will you be locked up?"

"A little more than I thought, four years and six months."

"So long?" Ling Xiaolu was surprised.

"Slightly more people were killed just now." He explained lightly, as if the length of the sentence had no effect on him at all.

"Then, is there any other way to get out?"

"I have two prison escape records, so this time I was directly put into the cell with the highest defense level, and it is not easy to get out."

"What can we do?" Ling Xiaolu was burning with anxiety, "You live in such a small house, let alone have money to launder your name."

Zhenjiu wanted to speak, but stopped again.

Ji Meng, who had been silent all this time, said, "Although I don't have a good impression of you, but for the sake of protecting him just now, how much is it worth for you to wash away your murderous spirit? I'll pay."

Zhenjiu refused for a second: "I saved up the murderous energy bit by bit. I don't want to wash it off, and I don't want to owe you a favor."

It was the first time that Ling Xiaolu heard that there were people who took accumulating murderous energy as a hobby, and it would cost a huge sum of money for Zhenjiu to clean up his black name, and he also felt that Ji Meng should not be asked to pay this money.

"You said just now that it's not easy to leave, that is to say, there is no hope at all, or is there a possibility of a successful escape?"

Ji Meng snorted: "How can he escape from prison after entering here? Firstly, the cell is airtight, and secondly, he can't get out of the main gate of the prison at all. If you leave a certain distance, you will continue to lose blood, and you will drown before you get ashore."

"Games are also designed by humans. I believe that as long as they are written by programmers, there must be bugs."

"Our company's programmers will definitely not make bugs."

"I do not believe."

Zhenjiu interrupted them: "Thank you little brother, but it's my personal reason to go to jail, you don't need to work so hard to help me."

"No!" Ling Xiaolu insisted, "You saved me when I was wanted, and you gave me the chance to save my life just now. Wouldn't it be too ungrateful if I left you in prison to fend for yourself? Reported? Even if this place is bombed today, I will rob the prison and rescue you!...Wait, bomb?"

Ling Xiaolu inspired himself.

"Even if you razed the prison to the ground, he will only die again, and he still can't get out." Ji Meng poured cold water on him.

"No, that's not what I meant." Ling Xiaolu recalled what Ling Long had said to him, "Do you know that your server might be overwhelmed due to the crowd?"

"Impossible," Ji Meng confidently denied, "Our server's load capacity is more than ten times the maximum number of online users, and there is no possibility of overload."

Ling Xiaolu thought in his heart, who almost overwhelmed Yuanting Town at the beginning, if what Ling Long said is correct, it is impossible for the total server online to be overloaded, but if a large number of people gather in the same place in a short period of time, it will cause a local downtime Absolutely possible!

"Friend, ah no, hubby..." Ling Xiaolu began to contemplate his plan to rob the prison.

"..." Ji Meng looked down at Ling Xiaolu's hand on his arm in dissatisfaction. If he had something to do with his husband but nothing to do with his friend, he endured it, who made him a magnanimous person.

"How much money do you have? Can you lend it to me first, and I will return it to you soon."

"There is money, but what are you going to do?"

"I offer a reward, the bigger the amount, the better."

"Do you think the word reward on your head is not bright enough?"

"I want to attract as many online players as possible. If everyone gathers in the same area, I believe the server will not be able to handle it so easily."

Ji Meng dismissed: "I can give you money, but the purpose of giving you money is to let you know how stable our Xinshan server is."

Ling Xiaolu didn't want to hurt Ji Meng's self-confidence, so he continued to explain his plan.

"If the area is saturated with people, the GM will have to divert the people to other maps, and then Zhenjiu may be teleported away."

"I don't think so. Even if what you expected happens, you can only send users outside the cell."

"Then..." Ling Xiaolu was stumped.

"I know there is a way to open the prison door here." Zhenjiu interrupted suddenly.

"Really?" Ling Xiaolu was pleasantly surprised, "As expected of a professional jailbreaker, tell me, what should I do?"

[World] Ah Yue: Don't bother others with this kind of blood-stained dirty work, I can handle it by myself!

[World] Dou Kou: It's not me!How could I offer a reward to the children?

[World] Lubi: Heh, if you have the ability to offer a reward, don't you have the ability to admit it?

[World] Lubi: Then tell me, who offered me a reward of 100 million ten times?

[World] Dou Kou: ...that time it was me, but this time it's really not!I swear by mine at home!

While the two were talking, the reward announcement jumped six times without interruption, and the total reward reached an astonishing 100 million.

Everyone believed what Ling Xiaolu said, so they were a little dubious.

[World] Su Yi: Do you really think the mysterious user is Kou's father?That's a bounty of 1000 million!

[World] Lin Duidui: Makes sense, I think I'm picky... Kou's father should not be willing to spend so much money to offer rewards to others.

[World] Zhang Dezhuang: But it is absolutely true that Kou's father beat the big devil today, and Lubi is protecting the big devil. Could it be that there was a conflict in the process?

[World] Tan Qi: I can't think of anyone else who can spend so much money casually and still have conflicts with Lubi.

[World] Ashuo: I am the one who offered such a rich and powerful reward, and I have already stood up and admitted it, what a face!

Everyone's analysis Ling Xiaolu pretended not to see it.

[World] Lubi: Dou Zha, even if you offer me a bounty, it's useless. I'm in Wuming Island, so don't even think about the money!

[World] Dou Kou: Little friend, listen to my explanation, why am I willing to offer you a reward?And the person who offered the reward, you come out to me, why provoke the relationship between me and the children!

[World] With a knife: Nameless Island?Isn't it Prison Island?

[World] Bring money: so smart!Actually hid in prison!

[World] Bring tea: Sorry, you can kill people in prisons, and the prison guards there will let you in if you give them money. The entrance fee is only 100 yuan.

【World】Bring Meal: What are you waiting for?100 million, once you touch it, you earn it!

[World] Dou Kou: Don't be afraid, kid, I will send the whole family to protect you!

While framing Dou Kou, Ling Xiaolu searched around the prison for the key "person" that Chen Jiu talked about.

"Caught!"

"Meow!" The fat cat, who was grabbed by the back of the neck by Ling Xiaolu, let out an unhappy meow.

"Is it it?" Ling Xiaolu wasn't sure, "But I searched the entire prison and only saw this raccoon flower."

"Meow - meow -" Lihua protested loudly.

"It should be, although I don't believe what that guy said, how can there be a raccoon that can pick a lock."

"Take it back and see."

The unlucky raccoon cat was carried to the door of Zhenjiu Prison.

"Zhenjiu, are you sure this cat can pick the lock?"

Or is it the lock with the highest level of security in the entire prison? Such a difficult skill, can a cat master?

"This is a hidden mission in the prison, and most people don't know about it. Have you bought anything?"

Ling Xiaolu took out a piece of fried shrimp tempura from his bag, which Zhenjiu asked him to ask another cat to buy.

"One fried shrimp can be done? It doesn't cost much."

When the cihuamao saw the fried shrimp, its eyes lit up, and its body hanging in mid-air writhed restlessly from side to side.

"Want it? Just unlock it and give it to you."

Cihuamao hesitated, then nodded.

"You can still understand human speech!"

"Hurry up," Ji Meng urged, "it seems that people are coming one after another."

Under Ling Xiaolu's deliberate propaganda, tens of thousands of online players embarked on a journey to the unnamed island.If the reward amount of one hundred thousand times would make some people hesitate to stop, the reward amount of one million times is enough to make everyone desperate for money.

Ling Xiaolu put the cat on the ground, and Li Hua stretched out his paws to move the keyhole a few times, and the cell door opened with a "creak".

"This is the most heavily guarded cell in the entire prison! Even a cat's paw can be poked open!" Ling Xiaolu really wanted to complain.

Zhenjiu flashed out of the prison at the speed of light: "Give it the fried shrimp, the prison guards will be here soon, let's hide in the tunnel where we escaped last time."

When the three of them hid in the tunnel, they heard footsteps coming from above their heads for several minutes.

Zhenjiu listened carefully: "These are not just prison guards, there are not so many prison guards, they should come here for the reward."

"To tell you the truth, when I think about my current worth of more than 1000 million, my feet are soft when I walk."

"When you run out later, you can't be soft on your feet." Ji Meng warned him.

"I'll try my best."

A group of people walked out along the tunnel in the dark, and Ling Xiaolu found another flaw.

"Why are there tunnels in the prison? Isn't it obvious that people can escape from prison?"

"This may be an easter egg left by the game designer to give the people detained here a chance to escape. But I have used this tunnel once, and it should be locked down now."

The locked tunnel has no lock, sounds like a trap.

"There is a trap, we are ambushed." Ji Meng was the first to arrive at the exit, and a group of prison guard dogs held guns and guarded here specially to welcome the escapers.
