But Ailin always had a good sense of propriety.
"I have to wait for the boss's word..."
Cheng Shuili: "......"
No wonder the news came so fast; they had been waiting for it the whole time.
These few are really rowdy, but it's quite heartwarming.
Cheng Shuili smiled but declined Ailin's request.
【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: Rest up, I'll handle it.
She didn't waste a single second after sending the message, selected the player, and used the card directly!
Su Rui, who was driving: "......"
Again??!
She really didn't know what to say, but this time, Su Rui wasn't flustered at all.
Thanks to Cheng Shuili, she had gotten a bit used to it.
Su Rui crossed her arms and stared at the rearview mirror, waiting to greet Cheng Shuili after she emerged.
At first, she thought Cheng Shuili was meeting some friend again, but when she saw the long blade slung over the other person's shoulder, her pupils dilated sharply, and her body stood up with a "whoosh"!
Is a fight starting?
A fight is starting! And it's a fight against someone!
This opportunity was too rare. How could Su Rui, a bellicose soul born and bred in a martial arts hall, miss such a thing?
She immediately pulled out her small dagger and trotted out of the vehicle.
Three minutes later...
Someone in the regional channel noticed that Bloody Madman's avatar had gone dark.
"Yo ho, the person is gone..."
"Still acting arrogant? So arrogant..."
"Bloody Madman really kicked a titanium alloy plate this time. This guy is really following the internet cable to hack people!"
"This is killing the chicken to warn the monkeys, everyone... watch what you say from now on. After all, she is the top-ranked player, not some soft persimmon. No matter how nice she is, she's still the top-ranked player."
"You don't know pain until the slap lands on your own face... Now, many people are still just watching the show."
"Always feel like something is missing..."
"Missing what?"
......
Bloody Madman's pleas for mercy still echoed in her ears, but it must be said, Su Rui was truly a bellicose soul through and through.
She would definitely like that long-handled hammer Ailin liked.
Cheng Shuili pulled out two tissues and wiped the blood off the long blade. Halfway through, she suddenly remembered something and opened the regional channel to send a message.
【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: A reminder to all: my bread can save lives, but it can also take them. Before you open your mouths next time, check if your necks are hard enough.
"A single-handed pressure..."
"Ah... it hits the spot. Nothing is missing now. Everyone, think carefully before you speak in the future."
"I don't know why, but I feel like something just shattered."
"What? The filter on Crow?"
"The filter on Crow didn't shatter; it's more like the feeling of a child growing up. This week's dungeon is a team battle; Crow is probably planning to build her own faction, right? Everyone can look forward to it."
"Really? Has Boss Crow already obtained the items to establish a faction? Don't tell me it's that 'join the group and that's it' kind. That kind is really trash."
"You're asking us, but who do we ask? Boss Crow? She wouldn't tell us..."
"What about the one who just felt the child grew up? You go ask!"
"We must respect the child's privacy..."
"I don't care about your privacy! @Angry Crow Takes Flight, Boss! I've admired you for a long time. If I can follow you, please give me this opportunity! If I can successfully join your faction, it would be a blessing cultivated over eight lifetimes!"
"@Angry Crow Takes Flight, Boss, you must look at me when recruiting followers! I've been a professional hype-man for twenty years; I guarantee I can make every word of yours bloom!"
Dozens of self-recommendation messages immediately followed this one, and the channel instantly turned into a talent recruitment market.
Cheng Shuili: "......"
She really didn't have that plan for now. All she had for now were plans to recruit servants.
The vehicle suddenly stopped. Su Rui poked her head out from the driver's cab and looked at Cheng Shuili to remind her: "The garbage station is here."
Oh... Su Rui's old hometown had arrived.
Cheng Shuili admitted that thinking this was excessive, but a gentleman judges by actions, not thoughts. She had never said it out loud, and that was enough.
Cheng Shuili clearly possessed the basic qualities of being a decent person.
She stood up, ignored Su Rui's pleading gaze for praise, and straightened her top.
This person was quite childish at times. This look clearly meant: Cheng Shuili always uses cards without caring about anything, while she would never do that because she is a polite, good child.
Cheng Shuili put away the blade, turned back to look at this "good child," and beckoned: "Let's go."
"Let's go."
Just like last time, one had to pay an entrance fee to enter.
Servants didn't need an entrance fee. Cheng Shuili got out of the car, paid the fee, and got back in to tell Su Rui to drive.
Su Rui had driven out of here before, but this was her first time entering.
Perhaps people coming for the first time shared a peculiar tacit understanding; Su Rui chose the exact parking spot Cheng Shuili had picked last time.
The moment the two stepped out of the vehicle, they bumped into a familiar old face.
The skinny beastman old man grinned; his ears were still missing, and his eyes remained as bright as ever: "Human lady... do you need a guide this time? It's only 5 game coins now."
Cheng Shuili raised an eyebrow slightly: "You still remember me? It seems your business hasn't been very good lately."
Su Rui, standing to the side: "......"
Is this how you make conversation?
The guide was unexpectedly honest and nodded slightly to admit it: "There are too few newcomers, and those old players rarely hire guides. In a while, I won't be able to survive anymore."
Cheng Shuili paused, but before she could speak, she heard him add: "But I remember you, and it's not because you entertain few people. You are too special; few people can pick up bargains at these black market stalls like you do. You have no idea—after you bought that item, the stall owner felt terrible for days."
"Oh?" Cheng Shuili became interested. "I bought the item, so how did he know the value of it?"
The guide smiled slightly, and the conversation turned as he began to promote himself: "You can hire me for just 5 game coins now."
5 game coins to buy the answer to this question?
Cheng Shuili smiled and shook her head; they were both smart people.
And 5 game coins, for the current Cheng Shuili, was an amount she wouldn't even bother to pick up if it were lying on the ground.
Ahem, that was a bit pretentious.
She would still pick it up.
She paid the 5 game coins quite readily. The guide offered a polite pleasantry before explaining the reason.
"I am happy to be of service."
"Because the black market stalls have a daily settlement function, where you can see whether you earned or lost money today, and you can even see the specific figures."
The guide looked inside the black market. Judging by the direction, it was exactly the stall where Cheng Shuili had bought the totem last time.
He smiled and continued: "He really lost a lot of money that day. Rumor has it he'll have to work for free for the entire next year."
