Chapter 156 Restraint
"Book." Su Wu checked her designated card.
He hadn't seriously collected cards, yet he already had eighty-one cards in his designated pocket, and even more in his free pocket.
Once you defeat the Bomber, you'll immediately become powerful, and after obtaining the last card, you can complete the game.
The first person to beat the game in ten years, that's a great title, I've got it.
Go kill the bomb monster now.
"Use [Companion] to go to the Bomb Demon's side..." He took out the [Companion] card and couldn't wait to speak.
"Hey? Hey? Wait a minute! Wait a minute!" Many people present shouted at the same time and rushed towards Su Wu, trying to stop his next move.
"...What?" Su Wu dodged back a few steps, creating distance between herself and the others, and looked at them speechlessly.
According to the plan, the final step is to kill the Explosive Demon, right?
"Our current state... is clearly not suitable for a head-on confrontation with the Bomber!" Bisky said, one hand on her hip and the other pointing.
Su Wu squinted at the other person's pointing hand.
He hates being pointed at, and he hates so-called guidance even more.
It's an unpleasant action, even if it's done by someone who is actually an elderly woman.
Let's just chop her hand off.
As he thought this, a smile appeared on his lips, and he slightly raised his index finger.
The next second, Bisky quickly withdrew her hand behind her back, her expression becoming extremely serious.
Was this kid... just thinking of cutting off her hand?
"You, were you thinking about something rude just now?" Bisky stared expressionlessly at the white-haired boy opposite her.
Compared to the other, Killua, who also has white hair, is much cuter.
"Really? Want to guess?" The white-haired boy raised an eyebrow, asking with a mixture of pleasure and provocation.
"Calm down, don't fight amongst yourselves." The mature, working-class George Kira stopped the two to prevent the situation from getting out of control.
"With my strength, I have absolutely no chance against Bomber. As for Gon and Killua... their injuries haven't healed yet. Going to find Bomber now..." George Killua shook his head, but didn't say it aloud, though his meaning was quite clear.
He believed that he and Xiao Jie would undoubtedly lose if they went now.
"Ah, don't worry about that. I never intended for you guys to go," Su Wu waved her hand to reassure them.
But as soon as those words were spoken, even the mature George Kira couldn't help but twitch his eyelids.
Why does it seem like they have no hope for their strength at all?
Is this kid planning to take on the three bomb-wielding duo all by himself?
What confidence and arrogance!
"Someone is using [communication] on you..." the card reader alerted.
Looking in the direction of the sound, it turned out to be George Kira's card collection book.
"Who are you?" George Kira asked as he answered the call.
"I heard you teamed up with some people and got the [One Ping of Coastline] card?" The voice on the other end sounded a bit hoarse, a typical villain's voice.
"Ganshu!" George Kira recognized the other person's identity as soon as he heard the voice. "How did you know?" he asked directly.
Logically speaking, the other party shouldn't know this, but even if they do know something, it's probably very limited.
Because... he didn't get any cards.
The other party only knew that he had participated in the group, but knew nothing else.
"Never mind that. My only goal is to get you to hand over 'one ping of coastline'."
"Of course, if you'd like, bring your cards to the entrance of Marthadora tomorrow. If you don't come, we'll take that as a sign you want to start a war," said the Bomb Demon Ganshu with a smile.
His hoarse, amused voice made him sound even more villainous.
"If you don't believe me, I suggest you check out the messages from your previous teammates, such as Kaz'thul, Monheim..." he suggested, rattling off seven names in a row.
"They're already dead."
Su Wu raised an eyebrow.
Kazusul and his group did team up with Gon and Killua before, but they failed on their first try, and... George Killua wasn't involved at the time.
The information the bomber got seems a bit inaccurate; it came from those three charlatans who ran away halfway through.
It's understandable that the bomber didn't know that George Kira didn't get the card afterward, since those three guys ran away very quickly.
Xiao Jie pulled out a card and nervously examined it. The seven names announced by the bomb demon were indeed now showing as dead.
This guy... he's a bomb-wielding monster...
Xiao Jie's clenched fist made his knuckles crack.
That's outrageous!!!
"Gan Shu—" he roared angrily.
"Who are you?" The bomber's voice turned cold.
Was there someone else with George Kira? Who? Someone in his team? The voice sounded like a child's...
"It's you guys, the team of three brats. You've got the [Lucky Alexander Stone], right? George Kira is right behind you. You'd better get your cards ready." The Bomber threatened menacingly after figuring out Gon's identity.
Gon wanted to say something, but Bisky and Killua covered his mouth together, so he could only make muffled noises.
"I'm waiting for you. Don't even think about hiding. We have plenty of 'colleagues' in the same boat, huh?" The bomber sneered and hung up the phone.
"Are you still going to stop me now?" Su Wu pulled out her companion card again.
Strike first to gain the upper hand; speedrun the game.
"No, I'll defeat the Bomber!" Little Jie shouted, breaking free from Bisky's hand that was covering his mouth.
Stubborn, yet... "Foolish, lacking self-awareness," Su Wu mocked.
He rarely spoke to Killua and Gon like this, after all, they were familiar characters with a special aura that made him treat them much better than others.
"...Even if you say that to me, I still want it..." Xiao Jie said stubbornly.
Kaz'sul was their former comrade, and the bomber's disregard for human life had truly enraged him.
As early as when the bomb monster was indiscriminately killing players, Xiao Jie had already become dissatisfied.
This is a game made by Kim... a game that everyone wants to enjoy playing...
They turned it into a murder game, which is really too much.
"Was I too nice to you, giving you the illusion that I'm easy to talk to?" The white-haired boy raised his eyebrows and looked at Xiao Jie with a sneer, a red halo faintly appearing beneath his azure eyes.
It couldn't be his fault, so it can only be that Xiao Jie took advantage of the situation and got too carried away.
He was in a bad mood, so he treated everyone present with equal pressure.
Killua and Gon broke out in a cold sweat.
Just like when they encountered Hisoka on the 200th floor of the Heaven's Arena before it even opened... no, it was even more serious.
It makes it impossible to move an inch, makes your whole body tremble, and makes you instinctively want to turn around and run away.
This guy... is serious, and he's in a really bad mood.
Killua watched the white-haired boy opposite him warily, worried that the boy might kill Gon in a fit of rage.
By that time...
His swollen, numb hands twitched slightly. Even though his hands were in a bad state, he wouldn't desperately try to stop the other person.
"..." Xiao Jie took a deep breath, and under the pressure that was almost crushing him, he said, word by word, "You want the Bomber's card, right?"
"I'll defeat the Bomb Demon, and after that, all his cards are yours." Xiao Jie panted, large beads of sweat dripping onto the ground.
That pressure vanished instantly.
Everyone felt lighter and their breathing became easier again.
"Alright, the deal is done." Su Wu nodded slightly.
"If you change your mind, you'll die immediately."
"Oh, right, if you lose, I can kill the bomb monster myself." The white-haired boy casually added a few more terms.
"Okay," Xiao Jie agreed quickly.
At the same time, Xiao Jie sensed that something invisible was being created between his and Su Wu's words.
This is called "binding".
As Su Wu's strength grows, his every word and action becomes a constraint, depending on whether he chooses to or not.
