The jar opening continued.

The eighth jar, surprisingly, contained something again. From Lang Haidu's camp, a chubby young man named Oyel. Very young, but also very timid.

The item inside was a ring.

Wen Xishu said:

"This ring is called the Substitute Ring... In other words, if a disaster or fortune occurs... you can forcibly substitute someone else."

"If you draw a jar of misfortune, you can designate someone... to bear the misfortune for you."

"But its effect can only be used once. If taken out of the current scenario, in other scenarios, its effect will be to block a fatal injury for you and transfer it to a designated 'teammate'."

"Conversely, if your teammate or someone else gets a good item from the jar, you can also replace them with yourself to claim that benefit."

This item is quite complex.

If Oyel draws an extremely dangerous jar later on... he can designate someone else to die in his place.

Who will he designate?

Oyel then said:

"Lord Wen Xishu... Are you afraid of me holding this item?"

Wen Xishu did not expect Oyel to ask such a question.

Oyel said:

"I want to continue opening the jars... Actually, the next person behind me to open a jar is someone I am pursuing."

"Since I have this thing, I want to open the jar for her. If a dangerous item appears, I won't let you bear it... Can you trust me?"

At this moment, someone realized the weight of Oyel specifying a person to die...

He could even make Wen Xishu die.

Of course, the cost of doing so would surely be high. Wen Xishu was confident Oyel was not with the other camp, and said:

"Of course, having someone brave enough to open jars is a good thing. Good luck."

Oyel nodded:

"Thank you for your blessing. Mira, I love you. I will bear the risk for you!"

Mira was the next one from Lang Haidu's team to open a jar, and she was thrilled.

Even Wen Xishu could see the barrage of comments.

[Great! Great! This poor guy finally shows some worth!]

Actually, at yesterday's dinner, Mira was even considering confessing to Lang Haidu, letting him take advantage to gain some benefits.

But Lang Haidu was always dealing with Nissen, Yue Yun, and Xiaojin.

Mira had been reluctantly chosen to open a jar today. So she asked Oyel if he could open it for her.

She did not expect Oyel to agree and actually do it.

She certainly looked down on Oyel, as they both came from the bottom tier of the Bunker. She was aiming higher.

Wen Xishu witnessed this scene, feeling only pity for the young man.

But then, Oyel seemed possessed by a War God.

After getting the Substitute Ring, Oyel continued opening jars, drawing a bottle of potion.

According to Wen Xishu's explanation, this potion could temporarily boost the Anti-Magic Value, with an effect of +10, lasting for three days.

Immediately, Oyel's Anti-Magic Value neared that of the officers.

Wen Xishu wondered if Oyel was also an Emperor Ouyang.

And it didn't stop there, Oyel continued opening the jars.

The third jar was empty.

The fourth jar was empty.

In the fifth jar, Oyel drew a shadow. He chose to use the Substitute Ring.

Then a dramatic scene unfolded, as Oyel, after calling for help to no avail, directly used the Substitute Ring on Bao Longtao, who had no intention of rescuing him.

Bao Longtao became the one the shadow wanted to devour.

At this moment, Bao Longtao transformed from enjoying others' pleas for help to pleading for help himself:

"Hammer! Give me my hammer! Oyel, you bastard, even if I become a ghost, I won't spare you!"

Without hands, Bao Longtao struggled to even resist.

But fortunately, Oyel quickly grabbed the hammer and knocked the shadow 'unconscious'.

He pulled Bao Longtao out.

"See, saving someone is that simple!" Oyel said.

Bao Longtao wanted to curse, after all, Oyel cost him a rescue chance.

But Oyel said:

"We all have the right to decide how to use our items. If you don't want to die, shut up!"

In fact, Oyel could no longer use the ring. The substitute effect had been used up.

But Wen Xishu suddenly began to appreciate this young man.

This young man, though loving the wrong person, had the guts to sacrifice and the determination to fight, which convinced Wen Xishu that Oyel wasn't just a sycophant, he merely chose the wrong person to love.

Oyel said:

"Actually... actually, I wanted to open the jars yesterday. Did I save a lot of people?"

Wen Xishu nodded:

"Why wouldn't it count? You did great, Oyel. I'll remember you."

Oyel said:

"I want to continue."

"You have to face the consequences of your choice. You know, you might be feeling very courageous now, but fate doesn't always favor those who burn with courage." Wen Xishu advised.

Oyel said:

"But I really can't think of any other way... to make my beloved girl realize that I'm not a useless person!"

As long as you're willing to risk your life, there are few opportunities to gain glory.

Many people might have their moments of glory, but Oyel realized that his most glorious moment might be right now.

He shattered the sixth jar, even the recorder felt that Oyel had gone all in.

The sixth jar, empty.
