WTYTIAAN Chapter 25
by VolareYan Yunqing repeated the same method, and suddenly there were four more ‘corpses’ in sacks in the alley.
Among the five people, the one walking in the front was still bragging about his achievements in a loud voice when a gust of cold wind blew, making him shiver.
“Why is it suddenly cold?” the man rubbed his arms. “Hey, don’t you guys feel a bit cold?”
After a while, no one responded to him.
The man was stunned, and the brain, which had been muddled by alcohol, finally started working again. He suddenly realized that since just now, his surroundings seemed eerily quiet…
N-no way?
The man swallowed, feeling the hairs on his body stand on end. He turned his head abruptly, but before he could shout “Who is it?”, he met Yan Yunqing’s eyes.
Yan Yunqing gave him a smile, mercilessly covered his mouth, knocked him unconscious with the hilt of his Nameless Blade, and then put him in a sack.
Lillian witnessed the whole process of Yan Yunqing knocking out all five people, dragging them back, and tying them up. The whole elf was a little numb.
“What are you doing?” Lillian approached Yan Yunqing and asked in a small voice, “Why did you tie them up?”
“To find out some information!” Yan Yunqing said, “These guys are all from the magic academy, maybe they know Karenna? If not, they must have at least heard of Karenna’s teacher, Lord Adelaide?”
That mage named Adelaide was a teacher at the magic academy, after all. As students, they should have heard something about her.
Lillian hesitated, “It’s been six years. Will they really know?”
“We’ll know if we ask, right?” Yan Yunqing shrugged.
Sacking NPCs to ask for information was nothing to Yan Yunqing.
When he played Grand Theft Auto V, he used to rob NPCs every day, and then kill them directly, and then play chase games with the police, which can be described as a robber.
Now that he has transmigrated into the game, Yan Yunqing’s behavior has been restrained.
If he was really an online player, he would probably save the game at the first time and start trying to wipe out the Auction House without taking any damage.
That’s why players are called the fourth natural disaster.
Besides, these five people are not good people. They were just taking advantage of the alcohol to talk about how to play with women!
Yan Yunqing’s sense of morality can be flexible.
The five sacks were neatly arranged on the ground. Yan Yunqing picked one out, first equipped the [Face Part for Masquerade Dance] decoration from his backpack to cover half of his face, then squatted down and pulled the sack down a little, grabbed the man’s hair, and slapped him twice in the face.
While slapping, Yan Yunqing even had the mood to comment: “This guy has a lot of freckles on his face, let’s call him Freckle Face.”
Freckle Face was knocked unconscious and then slapped twice. The originally dizzy man felt the stinging pain from his face and scalp, opened his eyes blankly, and took a breath of cold air, “Ugh… Ooh…”
When his vision focused and he saw a person squatting in front of him, wearing a gorgeous mask, the pair of dark red eyes under the mask made his back feel cold. The alcohol had faded for the most part, and the stinging sensation from his scalp also made him feel half-hearted.
“Ugh ugh ugh?!” He widened his eyes, wanting to retreat, but his hands and feet were tied up, and his hair was grabbed by Yan Yunqing, so he couldn’t retreat at all.
“Sorry, sorry, I forgot you still have something stuffed in your mouth.” Yan Yunqing apologized and pulled the rag out of his mouth.
As soon as Freckle Face wanted to shout for help, Yan Yunqing grabbed his neck. His face turned red immediately, and he desperately kicked the ground with his tied feet, trying to move back to leave more breathing space for himself.
“You seem to want to call for help?” Yan Yunqing pinched the other person’s neck, the corner of his mouth curled up, raising a smile. “Do you think someone will come to save you? Your companions?”
“Look there.”
Following Yan Yunqing’s gaze, Freckle Face saw the corpses in sacks on the ground, and was immediately terrified. His face turned red as he shook his head repeatedly, barely squeezing out a few vague words, “N-no, I wouldn’t dare!”
“Daring is useless.” Yan Yunqing threatened him. “It’s midnight now, and there are only a few living people around you, uh, all here. Even if you want to call for help, no one can come to save you.”
As he spoke, Yan Yunqing looked at Freckle Face with cold eyes, making Freckle Face involuntarily shiver.
Help, what kind of god of death has descended? Those eyes must have been cultivated by killing thousands of people, right?
When did they provoke such a terrifying person!
Yan Yunqing contentedly turned off the [Demon King’s Advent] skill. Although this talent skill didn’t seem to be useful for combat, it was especially useful when threatening people!
It can be used as a deterrent skill in the future.
Lillian took all of this into her eyes from an inconspicuous corner, her expression complicated.
Yan Yunqing released the hand that was pinching the other person’s neck, and patted Freckle Face with his palm, “I’ll ask you a few questions, and if you answer honestly, I’ll let you go. If you hide anything or try to call for help, I’ll just take care of you, understand?”
When Freckle Face saw Yan Yunqing conjure a dagger from nowhere and twirl it in his hand, the white light of the sharp blade was particularly scary. He was so frightened that he nodded repeatedly.
“I understand, I understand!”
“Are you a student of the Tashanxi Magic Academy?”
The expression on Freckle Face’s face became even more desperate. Knowing that he was a student of the magic academy and still daring to do such a thing meant that the masked person in front of him either had great strength or a strong background. He was not afraid of them little magicians at all, nor was he afraid of the academy’s questioning.
He might even have both strength and background! Too scary, when did they provoke him!
“Yes, yes, we are all third-year students of the Tashanxi Magic Academy.” Freckle Face’s face was pale, and he trembled, “W-what do you want to ask?”
Third-year students, that’s about the same as Karenna, all elementary magicians.
Yan Yunqing glanced at the level above the other person’s head, feeling a little guilty.
Level 22, uh… ten levels higher than him.
If he hadn’t caught the other person off guard and tied up the weak magician first, and confiscated their magic wands, who would be threatening whom now would be hard to say.
This is the disadvantage of only cultivating magic.
Yan Yunqing strengthened his idea of cultivating both magic and martial arts.
Relying on the fact that Freckle Face didn’t know that his level was lower than his, Yan Yunqing unscrupulously used his aura to deter the other person, “Do you know a magician named Adelaide?”
Freckle Face showed a dazed expression, “Adelaide? Who’s that?”
“…Karenna then? Do you know this name?”
“Never heard of her? Is she also from our academy?”
Yan Yunqing frowned, “When did you enroll?”
Freckle Face was horrified, “I, I enrolled four years ago?”
Tsk, four years ago, then he wouldn’t know about something that happened six years ago.
Yan Yunqing was disappointed. With a hand chop, he physically hypnotized Freckle Face again. With a thud, Freckle Face fell to the ground unconscious.
Kicking Freckle Face aside, Yan Yunqing casually picked up another sack and repeated the series of actions just now.
Unfortunately, these people all enrolled four or five years ago, and none of them knew Karenna and Adelaide. Yan Yunqing clicked his tongue and walked to the last sack, squatting down.
Tearing open the sack, revealing the face of the person underneath, that face was filled with horror, and even the nostrils were enlarged a bit, looking quite comical. Yan Yunqing recognized him and realized that this was the first person he had tied up and left here. After such a long time of questioning, he had long been awake.
This was even better, saving him from continuing to waste his breath.
“You should have heard what I just said clearly, right?” Yan Yunqing said softly. “I’ll ask a few questions, and you’re not allowed to hide anything or call for help. If you make any extra movements, I’ll just take care of you first.”
Big Nose nodded repeatedly, his eyes constantly glancing in the direction of the corpses, extremely terrified.
Yan Yunqing raised an eyebrow, thinking for a moment, he knew that the other person probably thought he had already killed the other four people.
Uh… it doesn’t affect anything, maybe it can make this Big Nose more honest.
Pulling out the rag from the person’s mouth, Big Nose didn’t call for help or make any extra movements, just swallowing saliva non-stop, extremely nervous. Seeing that Big Nose was so cooperative, Yan Yunqing didn’t use violence, and even gently tidied up the other person’s robe for him.
Unexpectedly, Big Nose trembled because of Yan Yunqing’s actions, almost crying out in fright. Fortunately, Yan Yunqing was quick-witted and stuffed the rag back into the person’s mouth, so he didn’t cry out.
As a result, he heard a rustling sound of water. Yan Yunqing looked down and, good heavens, Big Nose’s lower body was wet, so he had been scared to pee.
Yan Yunqing: …
Yan Yunqing was really speechless. When he beat people violently, this Big Nose was only terrified. When he gently tidied up his robe, he scared the person to pee.
What kind of logic is this?
Yan Yunqing’s face turned cold, and he changed direction, so as not to get his leg wet with pee.
“You know what I want to ask, right?”
Big Nose nodded repeatedly.
Yan Yunqing pulled the rag out of his mouth again, “So do you know any information about Adelaide or Karenna?”
Having not received an answer after asking four people in a row, Yan Yunqing didn’t have much expectation for this fifth person either. He was already thinking about where to go next to find relevant clues, but unexpectedly Big Nose opened his mouth with sobs.
“I, I” Big Nose’s voice trembled uncontrollably, “I know.”
Yan Yunqing immediately focused his gaze on Big Nose, waiting for him to continue.
“Adelaide… was, was a magic teacher at our academy before, right?” Big Nose was uncertain. “I, I seem to have heard this name, but she’s no longer at our academy. I don’t know where she went specifically.”
Yan Yunqing was a little disappointed. He had already guessed that Adelaide was no longer at the magic academy. After all, if she was still there, it would be impossible for four people in a row to have not heard of this name, and Rosen, who often ran to Setar City, would not have been unable to find Adelaide’s trace.
“But, but I know Karenna!” Big Nose saw Yan Yunqing’s disappointment and quickly answered loudly, “I know that Karenna! Don’t kill me!”
Huh? This person actually knows Karenna?
This was a pleasant surprise. He thought that after such a long time, six years, these magic academy students would at most know Adelaide, but be completely ignorant of Karenna.
“Oh? Then tell me about it?”
Yan Yunqing showed a very friendly smile, but in Big Nose’s eyes, it looked like a bloodthirsty demon.
