Chapter 8 Who is the last thief?
The bonfire suddenly burst into flames, and the voting results appeared on the scroll at the same time, covering up the darkness of No. 5's obese mother, and slowly receding bit by bit.
No. 5 fatty woman still looked stupid, but a fire hose suddenly appeared out of thin air and stretched into her mouth.
Firefighters pumped and pumped again, a stream of water was forcibly injected into the body of the obese woman.
The influx of water caused the already obese body of No. 5 to swell up even more, and in an instant it almost ballooned into a spherical shape.
Suddenly... with a loud bang, Drum became a spherical 5th swollen big mom, and was directly blown to smithereens by the inflated water flow.
The "5" next to the corpse of the fat woman No. 5 slowly changed and finally became a character for "thief".
The moment he saw the word 'thief', An Yi's tense emotions completely relaxed.
$$The bonfire suddenly burst into a fierce blaze, far surpassing any previous time.
Surging flames, like rolling waves, covered up all the books above.
Quietly waiting, as the flames gradually fade away, row after row of bright red blood-colored characters appear on the book scroll.
Bureaucrats and commoners win!
No. 1 (Ya), points +2;
No. 8 (Ya), points +2;
No. 9 (Ya), points +2;
No. 16 (Ya), points +2;
No. 2 (Civilians), score +1;
No. 3 (Civilians), score +1;

No. 11 (Civilians), score +1;
No. 12 (Civilians), points +1;
No. 14 (Civilians), score +1;
No. 15 (Civilians), score +1;
The scroll slowly dispersed, and An Yi looked at all of this without much surprise.
The last time the game ended, An Yi had also seen this situation. But just as An Yi thought it was temporarily over, that dull sound suddenly appeared again.
"Day 14, obtain hidden honor - Invincible in Battle, reward a chance to draw once!"
"Day 14, obtain hidden honor - Power to Turn the Tide, reward a chance to draw once!"
The dull sound twice in a row made An Yi stunned for a moment.
Hide honor? What thing? And... lottery chance?
The moment a dull voice appeared, a large roulette wheel appeared in front of An Yi.
In the center of the roulette wheel is a black skull. The skull holds a knife in its left hand and handcuffs in its right hand.
As for the outer ring of the roulette wheel, the densely packed and countless grid cells didn't even get a glance from An Yi before the wheel started spinning rapidly.
Clang! The wheel suddenly stopped, and the skull's left hand held a knife that pointed to a grid that lit up, followed by a beam of light shooting towards An Yi.
To be precise, it was shot into An Yi's pocket.
An Yi clearly felt the 'mobile phone' in his pocket vibrate slightly.
Before An Yi could react, the wheel started spinning again.
The roulette wheel stopped again in the blink of an eye, still pointing to the same grid where the knife tip was, and after a flash, another beam of light shot towards Anyi's pocket...
The wheel disappeared, and An Yi continued to be stunned for a while before reacting. Subconsciously, he glanced around.
Apart from the bodies of No. 4, No. 5 and No. 6, all the thawed out, pieced together, even the ones that were brutally murdered into pulp, have been recovered one after another.
Wait!
An Yi's face changed, and he looked towards the direction of No. 13!
The 13th corpse, which had been scorched into a golden yellow color by the copper pillar, was also slowly recovering to its original state.
The man with glasses No. 13, who had lost his previous gentle and refined demeanor, looked at An Yi coldly with a scowl on his face, pulled out a mobile phone from his pocket that was identical to An Yi's, and pressed it once.
A black hole appeared behind the 13th Mirror Man and swallowed his body in an instant.
Quietly watching No. 13 glasses man leave, An Yi's eyebrows slightly frowned.
How can No. 13 possibly be alive? The thieves lost, and as a thief, No. 13 shouldn't have been revived, right?
Could it be...
Thinking of his previous lottery experience, An Yi's reaction came suddenly.
No. 13 glasses man can survive, is it related to that lottery?
Maybe... Glasses Man No. 13 had also drawn a prize and got an item that could revive him?
Except for the still dazed No. 1 pajama fatso, everyone else started to leave one after another. Even No. 2 beer girl gave An Yi a resentful glance before she left.
Just as An Yi was about to pull out his phone and leave, he suddenly stopped in his tracks, looked up and gazed forward.
Uniformed woman No. 8, and that earring-nose-ring man No. 16, walked towards An Wei together. Behind them, the dress girl No. 9 pulled along a little girl of seven or eight years old, No. 15, who hesitated to follow.
"Number 14, are you interested in teaming up? We still have one spot left!" The woman in the number 8 uniform asked directly, her chin pointed upwards.
"Form a team?" An Yi was taken aback: "This, can still form a team?"
"Normally, it's not allowed! But if you have a 'Marching Order Token', then it's okay!" The 16th earring nose ring man, although he looked quite arrogant, but after the game ended, his speech was not only no longer awkward, but also very polite.
The 16th earring nose ring male pointed to the direction where the 13th glasses male disappeared: "'Marching Token' is not as precious as the 'Substitute Grass Man' used by No. 13 to offset true death, but it's just as hard to get! You usually have to participate in several 'Tian Xuan Tournament' to get one!"
"You must be new to this game. Besides the 'Regular Match', there's also a 'Heavenly Punishment Match'. Points determine the advancement of levels, but 'Heavenly Punishment Match' can't earn points and even consumes them. However, with losses come gains, winning the 'Heavenly Punishment Match' will give you a chance to draw a prize! Through drawing, you can get all sorts of items!"
"What's Tianxuan's race?" An Yi raised an eyebrow: "Is there any other way to obtain equipment?"
"Any other way?" The 16-year-old boy with an earring and a nose ring shook his head: "No, this is the only way to get it."
"Isn't there any other way to get it? Impossible? Did you guys just...?" An Yi's voice trailed off.
An Wei's voice was hoarse for a moment. Why did his own voice sound so hoarse?
"The way to obtain hidden honor is for you to explore on your own; those who forcibly reveal it will die!" A dull voice suddenly appeared beside An Yi's ear.
An Yi looked at the 16-year-old boy with earrings and a nose ring, his face changing color repeatedly.
Looking at this situation, no one else saw the wheel of fortune that An Yi drew earlier, or the reward!
So... That gloomy threatening remark just now was clearly directed at An Yi alone!
If it weren't for the 'death of a whistleblower' incident, An Yi wouldn't mind telling others. But now...
"What's wrong?" No. 16 earrings nose ring man looked at An Yi with a strange expression on his face.
"Nothing." An Yi shook his head.
"How about it? Want to join us?"
The 16th ear stud nose ring man smiled and persuaded: "It's too hard for one person to survive in this game! If there is a fixed team, it will be much better. Of course, to form a team, except for the 'marching order symbol', all four people in the team must have a unified official or thief identity card."
"For example, this." Number 16 said, taking out a mobile phone of the same model as An Yi's from his pocket and tapping on it. A black wooden token, about the size of a palm, suddenly appeared in his hand.
The black wooden token is ancient and simple in style, with no decorative patterns, only the front is carved with a single character 'yā'.
"Where's your phone?" The man with the 16th ear stud and nose ring asked inexplicably, shaking the token in his hand.
Seeing No. 16 roughly wanting to verify something, An Yi thought for a moment and took out his mobile phone.
No. 16 didn't hand over the token to An Yi with a peace of mind, but only touched An Yi's phone with the token: "You see for yourself."
An Yi looked at No. 16's actions in surprise and curiously glanced at his own 'phone' screen.
Yamen token; can be used 5 times.
This is an identity token, using it can forcibly obtain the identity of a yamen in the initial identity distribution at the start of the game!
"Available for 5 uses? Is there a usage limit?" An Yi's first glance caught the seemingly unrelated but obviously important content.
The 16th ear stud nose ring man was a bit embarrassed: "That... identity tokens were originally hard to get. The identity tokens of the yamen or thieves, although they are the easiest to obtain among all identity tokens, because only these two tokens can be used to form a team, so it's become scarce."
"What's with you and all these things!" The woman in the No. 8 uniform suddenly chimed in: "We're already giving you a five-time-use identity token, that's more than generous enough, do you really expect to be supported by others forever?"
The 16th ear stud and nose ring man pulled the 8th uniform woman, and apologetically smiled at An Yi: "Brother, identity cards are really hard to get, I'd like to give you a permanent one, but I don't even have one myself!"
"Don't get me wrong, I didn't mean that......" An Yi shook his head with a bitter smile: "I'm just curious about this matter."
"How's that? After all, it's too hard for one person to survive in this game." The 16th earring nose ring man noticed that An Yi seemed a bit moved, and advised again: "Brother, maybe your reasoning ability is really strong, and your language expression ability is really powerful, but one person's plan is short-sighted, two people's plan is long-term! Having a team to cooperate with will undoubtedly be better! Think about it?"
An Yi thought for a moment with a serious expression.
No. 16 earrings nose ring man is right, it's really not easy for a person to survive in this game.
Compared with being alone, forming a team would undoubtedly increase one's chances of survival as long as the people in the team are not too untrustworthy.
As for this game, team 16 earrings nose ring man, although they are not very impressive, at least they are not rubbish.
An Yi thought of this and smiled at No. 16, nodding his head in agreement, ready to accept the offer. But...
Suddenly, An Yi noticed that No. 16 earring nose ring man was following No. 8 career woman with No. 9 and No. 15 behind her.
The No. 9 dress girl, holding the little hand of the 15-year-old girl who was seven or eight years old, looked hesitant, but her eyes were fixed tightly on An Yi.
Wait!
The 16th ear stud nose ring man said before, a team of 4 people!
Four? Then...
An Yi's gaze jumped over the 16th and 8th people, flowed down between the 15th and 9th people, and finally fixed on a 7 or 8-year-old little girl who was the 15th.
The 15-year-old girl, who was about seven or eight years old, was always being pulled by the No. 9 dress girl, with her small face hanging down and two small braids dangling on both sides of her small shoulders.
The 15-year-old girl, who was only seven or eight years old, had not spoken a word and hadn't even lifted her head, but An Yi could clearly see that her tender body was in a state of tension.
No. 16 earrings nose ring man said before, a team of four people; while No. 8 career woman had said from the beginning, their team still has one more spot!
If, if...
An Yi suddenly sighed and shook his head: "I think I'm still more suitable for being alone!"
The woman in uniform No. 8's face sank, and she let out a cold snort.
No. 16 earring nose ring man was taken aback, noticing An Yi's gaze, turned his head to take a look at the 7 or 8 year old little girl No. 15, and instantly reacted.
The pale-faced man took a glance at An Yi and the 16-year-old boy with earrings and nose ring sighed, "Brother, there are not many people like you!"
The 16th ear stud nose ring man finished speaking, shook his head, turned around and walked to the front of the 7 or 8 year old little girl No. 15, and stuffed the yin-yang token into her hand.
"Girl! You gotta work harder! Otherwise, you'll still get kicked out of the team!" The 16-year-old boy with earrings and a nose ring rubbed the head of the 7 or 8-year-old girl numbered 15, then took out his phone and tapped on it a few times before their phones mysteriously bumped into each other.
The woman in uniform No. 8 snorted again and took out her mobile phone, pressed a button, and left first.
The girl in the No. 9 dress let out a sigh of relief, while the little girl with the number 15, who was about seven or eight years old, lifted her face and first nodded vigorously at the boy with ear studs and nose ring, then looked at An Yi with tightly pursed lips: "Big brother, thank you."
An Yi smiled and waved at the 7 or 8 year old girl in No. 15: "Hurry back home."
The 7 or 8-year-old girl in No. 15 looked at An Yi again and took out her mobile phone, followed by the girl in No. 9's dress.
An Yi quietly watched all of this, never saying another word.
It was the 16th ear stud nose ring man who left before, hesitated for a moment, and reminded An Yi: "Brother, if you want to participate in the 'Tianxu' competition, just press and hold the icon for more than 10 seconds before the 'Tanxiang' is burned. However..."
The 16th ear stud nose ring man thought for a moment, deliberately emphasizing a sentence: "If you really plan to participate in the 'Tianxuan Tournament' alone, be extremely careful! Most people who dare to participate in the 'Tianxuan Tournament'... you know!"
An Yi couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh as he silently watched No. 16 leave.
Giving up the opportunity to join the team, An Yi knew that this approach was really stupid. But...
But looking at the 15th number, a little girl who was only seven or eight years old, An Yi still couldn't help but do so.
As No. 16 earring nose ring man left, only An Yi was left around, and the only one who repeated 'I don't know anything' was No. 1 pajama fat man.
An Yi shook his head and walked over to the big fat guy in pajamas #1, giving him a hard slap.
"I don't know anything, I really don't know anything..." An Yi's words seemed to have no effect at all, and the big fat guy in pajamas #1 was still in a daze.
An Yi furrowed his brow, hesitated for a moment, and then lifted one foot to kick the fat face of No. 1 pajamas with great force.
"Ah!" Number 1 Pajama Fatso let out a miserable cry as he fell to the ground, subconsciously exclaiming in surprise.
After seeing that No. 1 fatty finally seemed to have come back to his senses, An Yi didn't continue to linger and pressed the strange 'mobile phone'.
