"Is that why you're so confident?"

Huangfu Zhuo nodded, picked up the glass of cocktail in front of him, swirled it a few times, but didn't actually drink it.

"But I still don't believe we can cooperate sincerely, just like I'm still not sure if you're Replicant."

"Since you are all sitting here, it must be because you have this idea, right?"

The tall woman didn't answer directly, but instead gave a seductive smile, "That Smiling Face has an incredible advantage. If we don't join forces, we'll only be defeated one by one."

In the current situation, does it really matter whether a partner is a fighter or Replicant?

Huangfu Zhuo gave a noncommittal, symbolic smile.

Only the two of them were talking in the bar; the other deathmatchers sat around them in silence, creating a somewhat oppressive atmosphere.

Changhu rubbed his mouth somewhat unhappily, glanced around, and finally his gaze settled on a thin young man wearing the Ojima school uniform.

"Brother, you haven't said a word since you came in, just listened to us exchanging information about our abilities. As a deathmatch fighter, you should know that this is a very unfriendly provocation, right?"

However, I'm a decent guy, so as long as you come over and kowtow to me, this matter will be over, how about it?"

Faced with Changhu's sudden provocation, Guan Jin was neither angry nor particularly surprised.

He simply replied expressionlessly, "If you want to test the skills of these friends here, you can just do it directly. There's no need to come up with such a boring excuse."

Changhu grinned. "Haha, I was presumptuous."

I must remind everyone that, as the only one among us who has fought with Smiling Face and survived, I think I have a lot to say about how terrifying Smiling Face is.

If some brainless idiots sneak into the team, they'll just be giving away Smiling Face to the team, so they might as well just give them to me directly.

He paused, then added, "I reiterate, only when the true elites unite can there be hope of combating the Smiling Face."

Changhu's words, no one in the bar stood up to refute or agree with him; the atmosphere remained silent.

The tall woman slightly raised her red lips and pouted at Changhu, then turned to Huangfu Zhuo and said, "It seems your partner has decided to join forces."

"We came here with the intention of cooperating."

After speaking, Huangfu Zhuo picked up the wine cup in front of him and drank it all in one gulp. "Let's get straight to the point. Tell me, how do you plan to leverage the power of 'Node'?"

Pat pat~

A cacophony of footsteps echoed through the street.

Before long, the non-human monsters that were making these noises came into view.

They are similar in size to humans, their bodies are blood red with torn flesh, and they crawl rapidly with their backs bent and their limbs on the ground.

A rough count revealed approximately twenty or thirty of them.

"Whoa, a crawler."

Lu Bai blinked, not sensing any threat from these rapidly crawling monsters.

Gold level abilities are generally somewhat useful, but to say that a single gold-level ability is particularly powerful is nonsense.

Ignoring whether these monsters are contagious, any Postnatal Martial Artist with fully refined Internal Energy could easily kill these dozens of crawling monsters.

Lu Bai looked down on this ability to transform corpses into crawling monsters, and didn't even bother to read it.

Quickly locate the Death Slayer hiding behind the monster by the opponent's floating title, then flash over and punch him into mincemeat.

[Bite!]

[Points +1, Current Points: 98, Current Rank: 1/39]

After doing all this, Lu Bai stopped in place and checked the information in the upper left corner of his personal interface.

The three abilities temporarily retained in the skill slots are: [Power Bank (Gold)], [Six Senses Enhancement (Gold)], and [Electronic Succubus (Silver)].

The first two abilities were ones he had saved before, while this last ability was an interesting one that Lu Bai had recently acquired.

[Electronic Succubus (Silver): When you become a video game designer, the more you torment players, the more addicted they will be to you.]

During this time, the Warden, Xiong Pi, did not pursue them again, seemingly true to what he had said, and went to take revenge on Thirteen Yao and Xiao Fengze.

To accomplish the target mission, regardless of which option is chosen, it cannot be done by a commander without any resources.

We should try to protect those under my command in Chikan Bay if possible.

That being said...

The ability of [Electronic Succubus]...

When actually using Lu Bai, it can feel a bit abstract.

The main reason is that the judgment criteria for this video game are too lenient.

He actually tested it out.

Yes, that's right. As long as it's electrified, it can be classified as a video game.

To be honest, Lu Bai was a little embarrassed to use this ability set, so during this period he hunted down several more deathmatchers in an attempt to find a more suitable ability.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. The abilities he acquired later were either useless or difficult to integrate with his current set of abilities.

Lu Bai sighed softly and turned to look in the direction of Nanxing Street.

"We'll just have to make do with it."

Nanxing Street.

The once brutal battlefield now has only one area that stands out.

That was a battlefield with ten Grandmaster.

It is called a battlefield because in that area of nearly half a kilometer, not a single building can be found intact; they have all been reduced to ruins.

The two sides in the battle were vastly outnumbered, one to nine.

Ironically, the side with more people did not gain the upper hand. The nine Grandmaster, belonging to different factions, were instead being suppressed and beaten by the Warden Xiong Pi.

The scene appeared extremely exaggerated.

The Grandmaster from Weidao High School and Chikan Bay still retain a certain fighting strength.

Only Thirteen Yao, Crow Commander, Noah Zorro, and A She remain, including two veteran Grandmaster, Brother Kong and Old Third Liu.

These big shots, who usually wielded immense power within their respective factions, were as vulnerable as children in front of the Xiong Pi.

Furthermore, the Xiong Pi's attacks, clearly fueled by rage, made it extremely difficult for the Grandmaster to cope.

If it weren't for the help of other Grandmaster, Xiong Pi would probably have already taken care of these guys one by one.

Boom!

Simba crossed his arms to protect his chest, but was blasted away by Xiong Pi.

He managed to slow down, and felt a surge of blood rushing to his head.

His tone was filled with resentment and jealousy. "Is this the power that the next realm can possess?"

Having personally experienced the power of the Xiong Pi, Thirteen Yao decisively concluded. "Lu Bai has probably already been killed by him."

"We can't fight this way, let's retreat."

Noah Zorro's face darkened. "Anyway, I'm planning to leave first. What you guys do is none of my business."
