The space that had originally been replaced was now like a mysterious veil being lifted, gradually becoming completely transparent.
As the transparency kept increasing, the scene inside the space was revealed before everyone without the slightest concealment.
At this moment, the people standing behind Xu Yuan all involuntarily sucked in a deep breath of cold air.
However, what was surprising was that there was no horrifying or hair-raising scene inside the space.
On the contrary, there were only a handful of living beings quietly standing within that space.
These beings all looked tense, their eyes constantly scanning the surroundings.
Although the entire scene appeared unusually calm, for some unknown reason, this calmness instead made everyone present feel their hearts tighten involuntarily.
After observing carefully, it could be seen that the number of living beings inside this seemingly small space was actually not very large.
However, it almost included every type of creature from the Overworld except Creepers.
It was very obvious that these creatures were the hostages held in D's hands.
Without a doubt, this was where D's confidence lay, and it was also the final trump card he was proud of.
Although D had not yet clearly laid everything out, the situation displayed inside the space before their eyes was already enough to fully reveal the real motive behind D's actions this time, exchanging life for life.
Seeing such a scene, some of the players standing behind Xu Yuan finally couldn't suppress the surging anger in their hearts and roared furiously, "F*ck!! Are you even a man anymore?! Is pulling these cheap, despicable tricks the only thing you know how to do?!"
As soon as that player finished speaking, the other players immediately joined in, cursing without mercy.
One of them shouted emotionally, "You're wrong! How does he deserve to be called a man? He doesn't even count as a human, alright?!"
"There isn't a single word in this world that can properly describe him, because he can't even be considered a normal living organism!"
Another person angrily scolded, "I never expected that trash like him used to live on the same land as us. Damn it, just thinking about it makes me feel unlucky!"
"If you've got the guts, then bring out some real skill and fight us face to face. Stop hiding in the shadows and playing those dirty tricks!"
Someone else stomped his feet in rage and pointed at D while shouting, "Damn it, you shameless bastard! If you've got any ability, come straight at us! Let them go!"
For a moment, all kinds of curses rose and fell one after another, echoing throughout the entire space…
At this moment, everyone clearly knew what D intended to do.
And based on their deep understanding of Xu Yuan, they also knew very well what kind of choice Xu Yuan would make.
Precisely because of this, the emotions buried deep inside their hearts finally erupted like a volcano.
They desperately wanted to anger D, hoping that by doing so he would direct all his fury toward them instead.
They wanted to suffer in place of the creatures inside that space. Even if it meant their game accounts would be permanently destroyed and they would never again be able to log into this game, they would still accept it willingly, without the slightest regret.
Even if they couldn't truly replace those captured creatures, they still wanted to do their best to buy Xu Yuan some precious time, perhaps giving him the chance to find a way out of the current predicament.
This was the only method they could think of right now, and also the only thing they could do…
At this moment, when D's gaze fell upon the group of players behind Xu Yuan, red-faced with anger, baring their teeth and claws while shouting and viciously cursing at him, a chilling, satisfied smile once again appeared on his face.
Although the players' furious curses kept pouring into his ears without end, D showed no sign of anger at all.
Because he understood very clearly that these players were merely raging in helplessness. All their anger came from the deep helplessness and despair in their hearts.
After all, they had already clearly foreseen the tragic ending that awaited them. Yet the sad truth was that in the face of this irreversible fate, they were completely powerless and unable to change even the slightest bit of it.
Their anger only proved how high the chances of success were for D's plan.
At this moment, D paid no attention to Xu Yuan. With a flash of his figure, he instantly appeared in front of Black Blade.
He first carefully looked Black Blade up and down from head to toe. Then he slightly narrowed his eyes, the corners of his mouth curling into a smile, and lightly beckoned to him.
"Hello to all the friends in the livestream!" As D finished speaking, his gaze once again focused on Black Blade.
Then D raised his hand and gently patted Black Blade on the shoulder, a very certain expression appearing on his face.
"As expected of HIM… oh, no, the number one player under Xu Yuan. You really are reliable when it comes to getting things done!" D praised.
"At a crucial moment like this, there really should be more people witnessing it together!" D continued.
However, when Black Blade, who had always appeared extremely calm and composed, heard what D said, his heart suddenly trembled.
You see, ever since leaving the Trial Grounds, according to the original plan, Black Blade should have immediately logged off and quickly contacted Steve to report the current situation.
But who could have expected that D would suddenly appear here so abruptly? Because of this, Black Blade didn't dare to act rashly at all.
Left with no other choice, Black Blade could only open a livestream.
Because he knew very well that as long as the stream was on, once his subordinates saw it, they would definitely find a way to pass the information along.
Not only that, opening the livestream would also allow everyone watching it to clearly see what the current situation actually looked like.
If they truly encountered an insurmountable dilemma, perhaps by gathering suggestions from the countless players watching, they might be able to find a way to break the deadlock, or at least provide a little help.
But what Black Blade never expected was that D had actually noticed him starting the livestream.
Fortunately, however, not only did D not try to stop him from continuing the broadcast, he even seemed to deliberately allow it, almost as if he wished for even more people to personally witness what was about to happen next.
With a sly and sinister smile hanging on his lips, D said to Black Blade with ill intentions, "Since you like livestreaming so much, then fine. I'll take you to an excellent viewing angle right now. I guarantee everyone will be satisfied!"
After saying that, D suddenly reached out and tightly grabbed Black Blade by the shoulder. With a strong lift, he easily carried Black Blade up into the air.
Just like that, Black Blade was forced to float along in the air following D's movements.
Just as D was about to bring him flying toward that mysterious transparent space, suddenly, a loud bang echoed.
A dull, heavy sound came out of the transparent space without any warning…
