Slacking off in the Game of Survival

Chapter 32 Ten Square Metres Island（9）

I have seen heavy-handed people before, but I have never seen someone with such a heavy hand!

“…” The chubby man and the remaining thug crouched in the seat seams, trembling in fear.

At this moment, they finally realized that they had really messed with the wrong person.

“Stop, stop! We surrender! What do you want? Cedar wood? I’ll give it to you right now, right now!”

Trembling, the chubby man took out the piece of wood he used to deceive others from his backpack. “I only have this piece. If you want it, take it…”

Qian Yue jumped off the chair, causing the entire speedboat to shake. The chubby man was so scared that he trembled, and the piece of cedar wood slipped from his hand, rolling to Qian Yue’s feet in the end.

“Click.”

Qian Yue lifted her foot and stepped on the cedar wood, causing everyone to instinctively shrink their necks.

Although it was just an ordinary piece of wood, looking at Qian Yue’s expressionless face, they had an inexplicable feeling that their fate was being stepped on.

Qian Yue raised her chin. “Continue.”

The chubby man, “…”

Could it be that what he gave wasn’t enough?

“I also have some food and supplies here. Take a look and see if there’s anything you like…”

Smiling apologetically, the chubby man nervously pulled out items from his backpack.

First, there were basics like bread and medicine. The chubby man took out more than twenty of them at once, piling them on the seat like a small mountain.

But Qian Yue still showed no reaction.

Gritting his teeth, the chubby man elbowed the person next to him, who quickly opened his own backpack and started pulling out things.

However, in his panic, he didn’t even look at what he had chosen. In front of everyone’s eyes, another piece of cedar wood appeared on the seat.

Thug, “…”

Chubby man, “…”

Du Yuanlang jumped up and cursed, “Good! You dare to play tricks on us!”

Du Yuanlang still remembered the kick the chubby man gave him earlier and immediately wanted to rush up and secretly take revenge.
However, at that moment, Qian Yue’s sharp gaze shot toward him, and he instantly became obedient.

Qian Yue, “Did I allow you to speak?”

Du Yuanlang, like an elementary school student, lowered his head. “No.”

“… ” The passengers nearby were already dumbfounded. In the end, they simply huddled in the corner, trying to minimize their presence.

Can’t see me, can’t see me, can’t see me…

The chubby man was on the verge of tears. “I really didn’t deceive you. I only have this piece of wood in my hand. Our team only has three pieces in total, and we take turns attracting customers.”

The thug nodded frantically beside him.

The chubby man felt wronged. “There’s another piece in the hands of the guy who just got eliminated. I can’t take it out now even if you ask me to.”

Qian Yue, “Then there’s no need to take it out.”

“Huh?”

The chubby man paused, thinking that Qian Yue was letting them go, and he immediately showed a joyful expression, planning to find an excuse to escape.

But little did he know, the next second, that piece of bamboo fell directly onto the chair back in front of him, making a loud noise that startled the chubby man instinctively.

“Miss, what is this…?” What kind of scene is this?

He looked up at Qian Yue, who stood against the light, still wearing that expressionless face.

Qian Yue said coldly, “No need to take it out. Just leave your backpack behind.”

The chubby man’s pupils instantly contracted!

She really dared to demand!

Du Yuanlang enjoyed the spectacle and whistled, “Impressive!”

The chubby man forced a smile and slowly took off his backpack.
“Since you said so, we have no choice…”

In that instant, the chubby man suddenly pressed down on the bamboo, while at the same time, the last thug leaped up from the ground with all his strength, lunging towards Qian Yue!

Du Yuanlang shouted, “Be careful!”

Qian Yue, “…”

She didn’t move from her spot.

As the man’s fist was about to strike her, Qian Yue released her grip on one bamboo and, in the blink of an eye, another bamboo appeared out of thin air. Immediately after, she made a forward-piercing motion, and the man was sent flying in mid-air, with the bamboo pole hitting his abdomen directly!

Qian Yue, “Did you think that as someone who produces bamboo, I only have one bamboo?”

The chubby man, “!!!!” I underestimated her!

At the same time, a sudden shadow appeared in his line of sight, and Du Yuanlang quickly dodged to the side.

He exclaimed, “Damn, sis, if you want to hit him, hit him. Why are you smashing me?!”

“Bang—”

The man crashed into the driver’s seat, his head shaking, his hands drooping, and his entire body slowly descending, eventually entering a state of 【Stiffness.】

If you were to talk about the most annoying buff in the entire game, 【Stiffness】 would definitely be one of the top contenders.

When a character’s health was critically low, it was easy to trigger the 【Stiffness】 buff upon receiving an injury. In that state, players would become physically rigid, unable to move from their current posture, and even unable to use any items from their backpacks.

In such situations, either you wait for a player who is a doctor by profession to come and save you, or you simply maintain that posture and slowly wait for your health to deplete, resulting in the elimination of your character.

Clearly, the chubby man was currently preoccupied and the other people on the speedboat were not going to lend a helping hand.
Du Yuanlang was delighted and immediately pounced on the opportunity to snatch the backpack from the fallen person’s back, wearing an extremely triumphant expression.

“I told you to hold a knife against me! Do you understand the concept of ‘what goes around, comes around’?”

The person, seeing his backpack in Du Yuanlang’s hands, glared at him with intense anger in his eyes.

Du Yuanlang responded fiercely, pointing at Qian Yue. “Keep glaring! Do you know who that is? She’s my newly recognized sister! If you don’t believe me, I’ll have my sis beat you up!”

Qian Yue, who was dealing with the chubby man, said nothing.

Qian Yue was never someone who relied on violence to solve problems.

This was evident from the fact that she always held back in her previous fights. Even someone like Fang Nan, she took what she needed as a tuition fee and let them go.

But the reality proved that sometimes it was indeed more convenient to let fists do the talking.

With two teammates consecutively eliminated or on the verge of elimination, the chubby man’s legs turned weak instantly. He kept pleading, “I’m wrong, I really know I was wrong. I shouldn’t have foolishly targeted you. You knew something was off with us a long time ago, didn’t you?”

“It’s me who failed to recognize the great one. Since we’re in the same profession, I’ll give you the backpack and everything inside. Can you spare me?”

As he spoke, he skillfully took off the backpack and placed it on the nearby seat, adopting a groveling posture. It was a complete transformation from his previously arrogant and wicked demeanor when he revealed his identity.

Qian Yue watched his actions in silence. Suddenly, she found it somewhat absurd. Her gaze fell on his face, which wore a pitiful and pleading expression, and a sense of disgust welled up within her.

Wasn’t it just a game? Was it necessary to play it with such… genuine emotions? Did they really have to kneel and apologize? Qian Yue’s mind almost went into a daze, as if she had returned to reality and committed murder on the streets.

But she quickly snapped out of it and frowned at the chubby man.

People like him, euphemistically called tenacious in life, could also be described as relentlessly despicable. Qian Yue never believed a single word of repentance and apology that came out of their mouths.

This kind of person has a twisted mentality. As long as it helps satisfy their evil desires, they can grovel and lick the most disgusting things, only to tear off the disguise and bully the weak again once they regain their strength.

Such tenacity is good, but unfortunately, it’s misplaced.

Qian Yue was inexplicably annoyed. With a sour expression, she said, “You should be seeking help from someone else. Go back and think about it.”

After speaking, she thrust a bamboo pole forward, and the bloody process was automatically blurred. In an instant, the chubby man turned into a cluster of particles and disappeared from the spot.

The two thugs who had been knocked into the water and had just managed to swim back up surfaced and coincidentally witnessed this scene. “…”

Du Yuanlang, with sharp eyes, quickly spotted them.

“Sis! There are two people in the water!”

Damn it!

The two thugs immediately lowered their heads and submerged themselves in the water, pretending as if they had never been there.

Qian Yue glanced at the ripples on the sea’s surface and ultimately decided not to bother dealing with them. She was in a bad mood after the fight and felt too lazy to do anything, just wanting to return to the island and get some sleep.

She casually threw the chubby man’s backpack over her shoulder and approached the innocent passenger. Just as she was about to say something, the person suddenly trembled, offering the backpack with both hands, “Don’t hit me, it’s yours! Take it all!”

Qian Yue, “…”

She just wanted to ask where the person intended to go and if they needed a ride. But now it seemed that the person probably had psychological trauma regarding her.

Oh well, she couldn’t be bothered to ask anymore. She would just casually leave it on some random archipelago.

Qian Yue sighed, “I don’t want your backpack. Keep it for yourself.”

After saying that, she turned around and put all the items that the chubby man had taken out back into her own bag. Although a player’s backpack became accessible to anyone five minutes after leaving the possession of its owner, it was only limited to taking things out.
Players couldn’t put things back into the backpack.

So the extra items were left outside, and Qian Yue dealt with them on the spot, resolutely restoring her status with a serious expression.

At that moment, Du Yuanlang excitedly approached, holding the backpack of the other thug from earlier. “Sis, don’t forget, there’s one more.”

Qian Yue’s movements paused slightly upon hearing his words, and she took the backpack from his fingertips. “What did you just call me?”

Du Yuanlang blinked his eyes and confidently replied, “Sis!”

Qian Yue’s expression instantly turned cold. “…I’m sorry, but I don’t have a brother like you.”

Du Yuanlang immediately revealed an “I understand you” expression.
It wasn’t him boasting, after all, not everyone could be as handsome as him, so it was normal for Qian Yue not to have one.

He chuckled, “Well, now you have one!”

No matter how you looked at it, that expression was just as punchable as the first time Qian Yue met him.

Qian Yue tightened and then relaxed her fist, suppressing her annoyance. “Thank you, but I don’t need it.”

She pushed Du Yuanlang away and walked straight toward the driver’s seat.

When a woman says no, she means no—she didn’t know why this phrase suddenly popped into her mind, she didn’t know which cousin or brother-in-law taught it to her. Du Yuanlang excitedly followed along.

Young people can’t hide what’s on their minds, and he quickly exposed his true thoughts.

His eyes lit up, and he exclaimed, “Sis, let me tell you, you were so cool when you were fighting just now! Way cooler than my instructors—let’s exchange contact information, and if you have time, teach me a few moves.”

Qian Yue, “I don’t have time. Get lost.”

With a single stride, she sat in the driver’s seat, skillfully ignited the engine, and maneuvered the controls—

But the speedboat remained motionless.

What’s going on?

At this moment, Du Yuanlang shamelessly approached again. “Sis, I forgot to tell you, this is my bound equipment. Only I can operate it, no one else.”

“How about we make a deal? You teach me a few moves, and I’ll take you back to your island.”

If Du Yuanlang had a tail, he would probably be wagging it happily right now.

Qian Yue raised an eyebrow and finally looked at him directly. “So, you really want to learn from me?”

Du Yuanlang nodded eagerly like a little chicken pecking at grain.

If this had happened two hours ago, he would probably burst into laughter upon hearing those words. After all, he had been holding onto a grudge and wanted to seek revenge against Qian Yue. He had even spent the days after the instance training hard on a punching bag.

But after witnessing how Qian Yue dealt with those people, he realized that in the previous instance, she had indeed shown mercy. _(:з」∠)_

At the same time, the young man’s initial frustration and anger transformed into genuine shock and admiration from the bottom of his heart. He underwent an instant transformation from being an enemy to being an enthusiastic fanboy.

Coach! He wanted to learn martial arts from her!

Qian Yue, “…Since you put it that way, I’ll teach you a move.”

She looked at Du Yuanlang with a smile that was not really a smile, and in the next second, her expression switched completely as she threw a punch toward his face!

“What are you doing, trying to involve me to relation with you! You foul-mouthed little brat! I’ve tolerated you for a long time!”
