Chapter 238 The winner and the loser
Chapter 238 The victor is king, the loser is villain
With Bo Bing present, the cleanup didn't take much effort. Li Ling and He Jinlan timed their actions perfectly, leading their men in to thoroughly clean up the mess and capture Yin Chu and the others alive.
After the war, fragments of the magnificent crystal chandelier, tinged with a dark hue, rolled to the ground. The lights inside the room flickered, but the colorful moonlight shone through the three-story stained-glass windows.
Just as Yin Zhao said at the beginning, this was just a well-justified attempt to trap someone like a turtle in a jar.
Nothing else.
Bo Bing frowned, then angrily flicked the blood off his skirt. The blood dripped down the rhinestones on the hem, tracing a perfect arc on the wool carpet. He looked up at the impassive man on the stage.
The other person seemed to be staring at him.
Bo Bing saw the deep meaning in the other person's eyes, like a ruler who had everything under control, but only for a moment before turning her head to look at the audience and reverting to her usual gentle demeanor.
The young man looked away first. Yin Chu, kneeling in front of Yin Su, had clearly gone mad, knowing that his chances were slim and everything was now set in stone.
—The victor is king, the loser is villain.
His face, half burned by fire, was twisted with despair and horrified hatred.
Bo Bing's eyesight was pretty good; he could tell that this guy was originally quite good-looking, but he didn't know why he was disfigured.
"What else do you want to say?"
Yin Su's voice was extremely gentle, but Bo Bing could detect something unusual about it.
"What do you want to say? Heh, Yin Su...you're not qualified to talk to me!" The man forced his head back, his eyes gleaming red. "Yin Zhenghua doesn't dare to come out and face me, so he sends a junior he just recognized to deal with me?"
“You should also know that power struggles are not a game, and death and injury are inevitable.” Yin Su’s eyes were devoid of emotion. He looked down at the man at his feet, and the moonlight shining through the stained glass windows of the church behind him made him look like a merciful god.
Yin Su placed his hands on the scepter, his tone indifferent, "If it were you, you might not be more compassionate than Father."
"Compassion? Haha..."
Something seemed to flicker in the man's eyes, and his smile began to uncontrollably twist. "There's no point in saying more. Do you know why I came here even though I knew it was a trap? If I'm not having a good time, then you won't be having an easy time either!"
His fingers twitched and stretched inside his sleeve, and a very thin thread snapped.
Aside from his constant monitoring of the thin ice's [Sensitive] skill, no one noticed.
Yin Chu suddenly pushed off the ground with great force, skillfully breaking free of his restraints; neither of them could hold him down. He charged towards Yin Su, shouting, "I will curse you! Taste my pain—"
Oh no! Explosives?!
He Jinlan and Yin Zhao realized that this was a self-destructive act of exchanging one for many!
Their brains could process what was happening, but their bodies were frozen, unable to move, as if in slow motion, watching the man rush past. The thing on Yin Chu's body could very well reduce the building to ruins, at which point no one would escape.
Bo Bing's [Brain - Primary] was still operating, and her body sensed danger even faster than her brain, rushing towards Yin Chu the instant he raised his hand.
Bo Bing could almost smell the burning fuse and the murky air mixed with gunpowder. Since he had used the skills [Speed of Life and Death] and [Rapid Movement] just last month, these two skills were now in a dormant state. He tried to reach out, but he was still a bit short of the other person.
Among his skills, [Golden Toad Leap] requires charging, [Divine Horse Speed] requires time to stack its effects, and [Disarm] requires close proximity to trigger, making it almost ineffective at this distance. Moreover, if the explosive is too large, his [Disarm] action is suicidal.
Damn it, not enough! Not fast enough, not far enough!
—Am I really going to be tricked here?
Bo Bing possesses system skills, but he knows he is not immortal. Even with Alpha's protection, the pain from his physical injuries will be fully reflected in his central nervous system. Losing an arm or a leg won't kill him, but it will greatly hinder his progress.
Even if it weren't for Yin Su, if this place collapsed and so many people were killed or injured, the government of Huantu Shenzhou would thoroughly investigate the explosion. At that time, even if I survived, as long as I continued to engage in social activities, I would be in big trouble.
His eyes could almost see the smoke slowly rising from Yin Chu's body.
The instant his body separated Yin Su and Yin Chu.
—A straight line of three points.
—The pointer is pointing to 0.
[Autonomous Mission - Female Guardian] Conditions met, mission complete.
[Task rewards are now being distributed... Check the countdown... 10, 9, 8...]
The cold electronic voice came through, and the world in Bo Bing's eyes seemed to slow down, like the feeling of being submerged in water and having your ear canal submerged. All the sounds from the outside world were blocked out by a dull sensation, and you could only hear the simulated sound of the Alpha machine.
[First monthly bonus points being distributed]
[Agility +1]

[Rewards distributed successfully]
The illusory flow of water disappeared like a whirlpool beneath my feet, and my body thawed from its frozen state.
[System Alpha protects you]
The emotionless, realistic electronic voice sent a chill down Bo Bing's spine as he felt a terrifying sense of being watched from behind the stained glass.
Before he could think it through, a blue-gold light flashed in his eyes.
[Taking Chestnuts from the Fire] is activated.
This is a technique to reduce hand temperature damage; thin ice covers both hands with a layer of white.
He lowered his center of gravity, pushed off with his left foot, and flew out like an arrow. His slender, sharp high heels transformed into something like military daggers, using terrifying pressure to pierce a bloody hole directly below Yin Chu's collarbone as he charged towards him.
The heel broke through the sticky skin and flesh, firmly gripping the collarbone.
The next 0.1 seconds.
[Physical Activity Level] Activated.
【Brazilian Capoeira - Waist Bow】Start.
Thin Ice's body bent backward, stretching her spine to its limit.
【Capture the Dragon and Throw the Mountain】Activated.
【Soaring Crane Amidst Clouds】Activated.
The young man flew up with the creature whose body emitted blue smoke.
Yin Su felt a weight on his shoulder and saw Bo Bing turn backward, her face close to his. The two were so close that they could almost feel each other's breath. Then, his eardrums began to ring.
—Like the sun rising for only a moment, countless colorful shards of glass burst forth.
Yin Zhao wiped away the tears that had welled up from the bright light and looked at the huge lattice window behind Yin Su and the other person, which was now shattered from the explosion.
The young man pressed his forehead against the man's, gritting his teeth, "What a troublesome brat."
"so......"
The man smiled, reached out and wiped the bloodstains from Bo Bing's face, his eyes gentle yet profound.
"Godfather, please don't abandon us so easily."
