To tell the truth, Lu Shu hoped Lu Xiaoyu would send Anthony to Tongguan, so that he could have a look at the situation underground without having to be there himself. But Luo Cheng was more than two hundred kilometers away, way outside of Lu Xiaoyu’s controllable range.
Furthermore, Anthony should not be too active. When his identity as friend or foe was unclear, the Heavenly Network would probably perceive him to be neutral, and Nie Ting would definitely not tolerate the presence of an unruly Class B expert.
What if one day Nie Ting set a trap and slashed him? He was more suitable of the title the First Assassin in the East than the First Expert in the East!
Lu Shu was playing with his gourd on the rooftop, with despair on his face. No matter what he said, there was no more reaction in the gourd, even if he called it baby.Could it be a bloody duplicate passed down from Li Dian’s ancestors? If so, could you please make it more real? What was with turning the dagger around in the gourd? Could it not sleep well on its left?
Actually, now thinking about it, Lu Shu could not take all the advantages himself. Although he was already a Class C, the mission itself had hidden threats, and Lu Shu would certainly not risk his life in such situations. He still had to go home in one piece to look after Lu Xiaoyu.
At that moment, he heard a calm voice from behind, “Lu Shu, who’s your baby?”
“From Lu Xiaoyu’s distress, +666!”
Lu Shu turned, astounded, “Why are you here? I thought I told you to stay at home?”
Lu Xiaoyu sat down besides Lu Shu at the edge of the rooftop, “I came to look for you, of course. Anthony can transport me via the earth. No one will notice that I’m here.”
Anthony arrived back in Luo Cheng yesterday. Bored at home, Lu Xiaoyu made use of Anthony’s skill to travel silently hundreds of miles to Lu Shu’s side. She only needed to be careful of surveillance cameras, and she was damn good at it.However, she got lost in Tongguan, which doomed her plan to give Lu Shu a surprise. But Anthony solved her concern. Every piece of dirt could serve as his eyes and ears after a wind swept through the town.
It was not a commonly seen ability among the earth-type Metahumans, as very few had reached the same level as Anthony.
As soon as Lu Xiaoyu found Lu Shu, she heard him repeatedly calling something baby…
Lu Shu explained everything about the gourd in a light mood. Afterwards, Lu Xiaoyu asked, “I thought you’ll need to cup one hand in the other in front of your chest, bow and then say ‘please turn around, baby’?”
Lu Shu was stunned. So many rules?!
He stood up and took another try. Placing the purple golden gourd in front of him, he made a deep bow, “Please turn around, baby.”
And then, the dagger turned again in the gourd…
“The hell! You wanna come out for a dance!?” Lu Shu’s face darkened!
At that moment, a person hastened secretly towards them from the east. Judging from his cap and sunglasses, he was either an idiot or trying to hide his identity.
Lu Xiaoyu was surprised, “Why is he here?”
Lu Shu could not recognize the man without Anthony’s shared vision, “Who?”
“The Mianchi factory director!”
Lu Shu froze, “Didn’t the other team wipe them out? What is he doing here?”
“I left once I got the stuff last night. I don’t know what happened afterwards,” Lu Xiaoyu’s eyes widened innocently, I did whatever you told me to do…
As for what she took, she had not informed Lu Shu yet. Everything was stored in their house.
Then, the director sneaked into the market, knocked on the door of the innermost room and was allowed to enter. The person inside the dark room deliberately took a glance around to ensure there were no followers.
“There’s some sort of connection between the two markets,” Lu Shu mused, could it be the man had escaped Mianchi to seek sanctuary here?
Checking against his memorandum, the director’s name was Liu Dazhe while the person in charge of the agricultural market was Liu Dakun. Eh? Could they be cousins or siblings?
Also in that moment, a group of seven geniuses, who were tasked to suppress the Mianchi black market, were hurrying towards them, and one person was sticking up his nose, as if catching smells…
What a unique power he had awakened to…
Sensing that something was up, he called to Xiaoyu, “Send Anthony down and rob them if you have the chance!”
After that, he quickly went back to the inn. Probably the Mianchi team was completely ignorant of Liu Dazhe’s meeting with Liu Dakun, and the twenty plus Metahumans below.
From their perspective, the director was their only target. Their victory was certain.
But the reality was that he had reinforcements!
Unwilling to send them into danger, Lu Shu directed Xiaoyu to take advantage of the commotion. If the two sides really engaged in a fight, no one would have the spare time to care about cash and safety boxes, and that was the “chance” that Lu Shu was talking about.
In a few minutes time, he would bring his team and join the group below to kill all their enemies. Thus, who would know that something was missing?
Absolutely perfect, Lu Shu thought excitedly.
…
The director climbed down a narrow ladder and started weeping the second he saw Liu Dakun, “My dear brother! Everything in Mianchi is gone! My men, my money… Everything! We were robbed by an idiot at first, and then we were encircled by the Heavenly Network!”
His brother Dakun stared at him in bewilderment for a long time, “Which idiot? You let an idiot rob you?”
“A Class B idiot… Black shadow, earth-type Metahuman, with a white matted bracelet on each of his wrist… The idiot forced us to giggle for thirty minutes and could punch a hole in my foot with one grain of sand when he’s displeased…” It took him a long time on his way there to understand that the shadow was at least a Class B. His brother was a Class C and he knew Class C’s could never have such power!
However, on the materials given by the Heavenly Network, Liu Dakun was only a Class D.
Liu Dakun was a sensible man and he knew better than to confront a Class B. His smooth, peaceful life should be attributed to his low-key personality.
Liu Dakun gathered himself, “Did your pursuers follow you here?”
He was worried that his younger brother might lead the Heavenly Network here. But Liu Dazhe pressed his lips tightly, as the only thing on his mind was to live…
His concern was verified at the sight of his brother’s expression. With a slap on Liu Dazhe’s face, Liu Dakun’s voice was irritated, “Damn you! Do you know how much effort I have put into this place?”
Everyone else shot frosty stares at Liu Dazhe. If the Heavenly Network had found out about their location, they would need to flee for the rest of their lives.
“How many?” Liu Dakun calmed himself down.
“Seven. Mid-Class D students,” Liu Dazhe replied.
“Kill them all and run northwest tonight. Pack up, brothers!” at Liu Dakun’s command, a tinge of ferocity suddenly appeared on everyone’s face. Magical stones in flannel bags and cash in sacks were collected in the center of the room to be carried by a strength-type Metahuman. The rest were in preparation for a killing spree.
At that instant, a black shadow, giggling, rose from the floor…
Lu Shu had instructed Lu Xiaoyu to find an appropriate time, which he referred to as when they were busy fighting.
But to Lu Xiaoyu, any time was a chance. Who could defeat her Class B Anthony?
Thus, was this not a good chance since they had carried everything out…
Lu Dazhe suddenly started laughing wildly, which startled his brother quite a fair bit, “Hahahaha, laugh! Everybody bloody hell laugh! Hahahaha!”
Totally in shock, Liu Dakun threw a smack on the back of his brother’s head, “Hush!”
But soon his attention was diverted to the shadow. Who the hell was the one over there that had the guts to come in?!
Wait a moment… What did my brother say? Black shadow, earth-type Metahuman, a white matted bracelet on each wrist… The idiot forced us to laugh for thirty minutes and could punch a hole in my foot with a grain of sand if he’s displeased…
“Hahaha, laugh! Everybody bloody hell laugh! Hahahaha!” Liu Dakun trembled. Didn’t he say only the Heavenly Network was here? Why is the Class B expert here too?
White sand gathered in front of the shadow, “Very good.”
Then, Anthony took away everything in the center of the room, wasting no time.
Staring at the empty floor, Liu Dakun was about to cry, But it was not the time to mourn. He would rise again with his power.
Laughing loudly, he led the entire group to the surface. But at that moment, they heard a pounding sound on the door. The director’s face was ashen, “Hahahaha they are here!”
Outside, the geniuses were deeply disturbed by his laughter!
Does he have a trump card or something? Why is he so happy when he was about to die?
