Chapter 166: Prepared
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
[Hasn’t the rumor about Bai Lin being Bilina already been refuted? Does this person not know?]
[It doesn’t matter to them whether the rumors are true or false. I guess they’re trying to raise their reputation by doing a livestream to let the people in the livestream channel see this. Bilina is the god of mercenaries, and Bai Lin is Bilina. Killing Bai Lin is the same as killing a god. They must be trying to prove that they are stronger this way.]
[Do they have holes in their brains? They really derserve their reputation as the cancer of the industry. You don’t have the ability to make a reputation for yourself, so you attacked my Lin-jie? My Lin-jie is really unlucky. First, she was pestered by Fiery Tom and was mistaken for Bilina. Now, she’s still being mistaken for Bilina after refuting the rumors!]
[Can the production team contact Bilina herself? As long as she comes out to prove it, Lin-jie will be safe then?]
[That’s not necessarily the case. Bilina’s retired. Even if we manage to contact her, she might not agree. She and Bai Lin aren’t related. Why should she help?]
[It’s a classic train problem. Bai Lin’s death alone doesn’t seem to be a big loss. But if she doesn’t come, the people who die will be children of entrepreneurs and musicians, as well as a zoologist. Their value is much greater than Bai Lin’s.]
[I think so too. Besides, Bai Lin should also know this, right? She’d be a little selfish if she didn’t save them when she can.]
[Are you guys crazy? Does it mean that my Lin-jie is selfish if she doesn’t go? If she doesn’t go to her death, would you be calling her a murderer? Please, don’t change the subject. The main culprit is Lizard! It’s Quicksand Mercenary! No matter what my Lin-jie does, she’s not wrong!]
The atmosphere in the livestream room was extremely tense, and the moderator’s authority had been suspended. With no one managing the room and someone trying to take advantage of the situation, the comments section became chaotic.
Other than the ordinary audience, there were also many people who were not so ordinary. After hearing the news that Bilina was going to be executed by Quicksand Mercenary, they came to watch.
The analysis of the comments section was right. When they spent a lot of money to hire a mercenary group, the first thing they had to consider was their strength. The mercenary group led by Bilina was one of the top mercenary groups, so everyone first considered them.
As for the other groups, they could only do the work that Bilina’s group did not want, so they attracted a lot of hatred.
After Bilina retired, the people who looked for her were either admirers like Fiery Tom or people like Quicksand Mercenary who had been suppressed several times and hated her to the core. They wanted to use her to make a name for themselves.
At the backstage of the production team, more than a dozen technicians were trying their best to repair the hacked system. Their fingers were moving quickly on the keyboards.
Bai Lin was smoothly brought backstage, and Yan Ruo was helping her adjust her tactical belt.
Not far away, a whole wall of surveillance screens were broadcasting the appearance of the people tied up in the basement from different angles.
Bai Xi clenched the dagger tightly and stayed alone in the corner. She seemed to have gone mad, her lips moving but no one knew what she was saying.
Jin Hang and Lu Zhi leaned against each other and trembled. Jin Ran was not far away from them. Fang Rong had asked for some bandages and water to treat Jin Ran’s wounds, while Lin Sen and Fan Feng looked on worriedly.
Bai Shao, Zhao Yuan, and Li Yan cast complicated looks at Bai Xi from time to time, full of hatred and disgust.
Zhou Guang was unconscious and curled up in a corner. His body was covered in bruises, and his hands which could play beautiful music were also full of wounds.
Bai Lin glanced at the screens and immediately looked away.
“The infrared map’s been loaded into your watch, the bullets and guns are ready, and the toolbox’s been packed as you requested. Is there anything else you need?” Yan Ruo looked at Bai Lin. She was extremely calm at the moment, and he could not detect any fluctuation in her emotions. She was almost like a machine. “You… You’re going alone?
“Yes.
Bai Lin looked up and said in a serious tone, “I believe that you can regain system authority within 15 minutes. However, if you fail, you need to contact me immediately. I’ll move onto other solutions.”
“Alright,” Yan Ruo replied.
There was nothing more to say. The helicopter descended and Bai Lin landed lightly. In an instant, seven or eight drones surrounded her. Lizard’s smiling voice was heard.. “So are you ready to die?”
