134: Chapter 134 Alice's Doll Tea Party 27

In fact, if the Cane-Wielding Youth's mind were still clear right now, he would have realized that a faint stiffness had already begun to creep into his body earlier.

Unfortunately, under the influence of the potion, he was unable to notice any such details.

After Luo Yuejian grabbed the cane, she pulled hard and yanked it right out of his grip.

As everyone knows, when people grab something, they naturally adjust their grip to whatever position is most comfortable for them.

Thus, Luo Yuejian very naturally shifted her hand's position. As the cane spun around, the sharp blade-tip that had slain The bearded uncle with an exaggerated top hat pointed straight ahead...

At this moment, because of his stiff body, once the cane was pulled from his grasp, the Cane-Wielding Youth's body fell forward under its own momentum.

*Squish—*

The sharp tip pierced straight through the Cane-Wielding Youth's abdomen, causing blood to spray out.

The Cane-Wielding Youth's face was filled with utter disbelief. He couldn't believe he had died so easily, killed by the hands of the cold and calm White-haired Girl before him.

He coughed up a mouthful of blood, which Luo Yuejian agilely dodged.

At this moment, like a final burst of clarity before death, the Cane-Wielding Youth's intellect temporarily returned. His life flashed before his eyes like a revolving lantern, and every single detail of this game up until now resurfaced in his mind...

...until he remembered that glass of red wine.

He recalled that back then, neither Luo Yuejian nor the Little Girl with a Crown had touched the red wine on the table.

Although he didn't know why Luo Yuejian and the Little Girl with a Crown hadn't drunk that red wine, he finally realized one thing—there was something wrong with that wine.

Unfortunately, it was already too late.

His voice was hoarse, his expression complex: "You knew all along..."

He coughed up another mouthful of blood and looked down, only to see that Luo Yuejian had pulled the cane out of his abdomen.

The Cane-Wielding Youth's body collapsed heavily to the ground. Just like The bearded uncle with an exaggerated top hat, his eyes were wide open, staring fixedly at Luo Yuejian, unable to die in peace.

At this moment, the audience in the main livestream room also exploded:

[Holy crap, that was awesome, so freaking awesome! I always knew this White-haired Girl was smart, but I didn't expect her combat power to be this high!]

[That was incredibly cool!]

[You can't even say the guy with the cane was weak; his opponent was just too powerful.]

[Yueshen's combat power has always been high. This isn't even her coolest move. I remember some pro video editor made a compilation of all of Yueshen's most epic moments, right?]

[Where can I watch it? Where can I watch it? I really need this (wiping tears)...]

[Where can I watch the White-haired Girl's previous livestream videos? I'm really starting to fanboy over this woman, she's too strong!]

[You can search for it on the Star Net Forums. Just search for the keywords 'Yueshen' or 'White-haired' and you'll find it.]

[Their fight made my scalp tingle. Seriously badass. This is way more hype than Boruto!]

[Master...]

[Who was saying my Yueshen was a goner earlier? Come out and bark now~]

[Hahahahaha, the face-slapping drama might be late, but it always arrives.]

[Be that as it may... don't celebrate too early...]

[?]

[What's going on? Yueshen just pulled off an amazing play, why is someone still being a buzzkill?]

[I'm really not trying to be alarmist. I know the White-haired Girl is amazing, but someone next door is about to complete their ultimate skill...]

[This is a real ultimate skill, the kind that can conquer the world.]

[What do you mean? Can someone explain it to me?]

[Just keep watching and you'll see.]

...

Luo Yuejian's action of pulling out the cane was purely subconscious. Mainly, she lacked common sense and didn't realize that pulling a sword out actually makes a person die faster.

He didn't even get to finish a single last word.

Luo Yuejian also didn't know that the biggest reason for the Cane-Wielding Youth's death was actually because his body had suddenly stiffened up and become immobile.

She thought it was caused by the ten-minute minor strength boost that the slacker system had punished her with in the previous round.

She couldn't help but sneer in her heart, thinking that she knew the slacker system was up to no good, claiming it had specially chosen a skill for her that wouldn't affect her mission completion.

Yet it backstabbed her at the critical moment!

The slacker system was truly wronged this time. It explained, "Host, you can't just blame me whenever something happens, can you? The system detects that the passive skill 'ten-minute minor strength boost' wasn't activated at all this time."

Luo Yuejian didn't believe the slacker system's words at all. "Do you think I'd believe that? If my strength hadn't been boosted, how could I have snatched the cane from that Cane-Wielding Youth who is built like a gorilla? How could I have pulled him?"

Wasn't this just treating her like a fool?

The slacker system patiently explained, "The Cane-Wielding Youth could be pulled by you because he was unable to move at that moment."

"Do you remember the dinner Alice prepared at the very beginning? Back then, there was a glass of red wine in front of every player. That red wine flowing through the players' current doll bodies will cause the doll's joints to undergo Corrosion and rust."

Hearing the slacker system's words, Luo Yuejian suddenly froze. She also recalled that back then, in order to eat more food, she hadn't drunk a single drop of wine.

The rope always breaks at its thinnest point, and fate always plays tricks on the gluttonous pig...

If she had drunk even a sip of wine to wet her throat back then, the one dead right now might very well have been her!

Luo Yuejian was filled with regret at this moment, immense regret. Her lips trembled: "...Is what you just said really true?"

slacker system: "Of course. When has this system ever deceived you, Host?"

Hearing this, Luo Yuejian, who had believed it because the system's explanation was very plausible and logical, suddenly became suspicious again.

slacker system: ...

While Luo Yuejian was still bickering with the slacker system, the Young man in a blue suit, realizing things were going south, had already fled the scene. By now, he was nowhere to be found, and Luo Yuejian didn't bother to go after him.

Knowing that she had likely missed such a great opportunity due to her own negligence, Luo Yuejian was in a daze, as if she could already see the system taking money from her Star Net account...

However, having been beaten down in so many games already, Luo Yuejian only stood there feeling depressed for a brief moment before pulling herself together again.

Besides her, weren't there still three players left? She refused to believe that out of these experienced veteran players, not a single one could take her down!

Just as Luo Yuejian was about to set off to find the other players, the entire castle began to shake again.

And this time, the shaking was far more violent than before.

With her previous experience, Luo Yuejian now knew that this was a sign that a player had summoned the Maid Outfit Doll.

She just didn't know who had summoned the Maid Outfit Doll.
