Lu Bai, unsure of what this man was thinking, maintained his cheerful demeanor. "A cleaner? Judging from the name, they seem to be people who specialize in handling accidents like mine."

"You can be arrogant for a while longer."

The Lord's expression seemed somewhat stiff, because he hadn't sensed any tension from Lu Bai at all; on the contrary, there was a hint of expectation in him, making anything he said sound like he was just being stubborn.

"Arrogant, huh?"

Lu Bai picked up the empty wine glass beside him, took a sip, smacked his lips, and casually remarked as if passing the time, "This is exactly what I'd like to see."

That's actually the truth.

In fact, when he followed the crowd into the restaurant and saw the Lord in this form, he realized that this was not the Lord's true form.

This means that the other party can completely abandon this physical body, and he cannot obtain information from the Lord through any means of coercion. This is the main reason why he does not care whether the Lord answers his questions or not.

Anyway, there are other ways to obtain intelligence.

It doesn't matter if we make a scene.

Suddenly, the man with the grim expression seemed to have received some news, and his face brightened.

He brazenly got up and distanced himself from Lu Bai, without considering the possibility that Lu Bai might suddenly kill him.

Lu Bai was indeed too lazy to target a single person. He watched the other party retreat to the edge of the restaurant and said lightly, "Looks like we've arrived."

With victory seemingly assured, the master surprisingly offered some feedback. "It's too late for you to escape now."

As if to confirm his words, the restaurant ceiling suddenly shattered.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

A bright, columnar beam of light pierced the ceiling and crashed down rapidly.

Lu Bai narrowed his eyes subconsciously, but did not stop the beams of light from falling.

Faced with this sudden turn of events, the rest of the people in the restaurant could no longer remain seated and scattered in all directions. If they were killed by falling concrete blocks from the ceiling, there would be no way to seek justice.

However, the ceiling shattered so suddenly that two unlucky individuals were still struck by the millstone-sized debris and instantly turned into a pile of minced meat.

Those who had survived by chance had no time to pay attention to the two unlucky guys; their attention was all focused on where Lu Bai was.

There were a total of six beams of light, six on each side, surrounding Lu Bai.

The beams of light were dazzling, illuminating the restaurant and leaving no shadows.

Ironically, this light evokes no warmth whatsoever; instead, it feels cold and sticky.

After adjusting to the brightness, Lu Bai found it barely tolerable and laughed, "This scene is like an execution on the spot."

The white-robed Replicant dodged the falling debris from the ceiling. "There's no need to hand you another noose; after all, it has quite a few burrs. Be grateful we didn't intend to torture you."

"No, it won't."

Lu Bai touched his neck and explained, "Anyone who's been on the gallows knows that the sack over your head goes all the way up to your neck, so you can't feel the rough edges of the noose at all."

White- Replicant: "..."

Logically speaking, someone who can perform so well in the Deathmatch Arena can't be a fool.

But Lu Bai's reaction made him seriously doubt whether the guy was still mentally sound.

The man immediately looked up and shouted, "Stop dawdling, just kill this guy!"

Before the words were finished, three figures leaped down from above and landed outside the six pillars of light.

Lu Bai's gaze swept over the three of them, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

Because his [save/load] ability took effect immediately, it revealed that each of the three people in front of him was a deathmatch fighter with more than three abilities.

"Humans?"

"Humans?"

The same two words, the former is doubt.

The latter, however, exuded a strong sense of disdain.

The man with the mustache made no attempt to hide his disgust for the word "human": "You should call us Mona Warrior."

Once Lu Bai realized that the three were genuine human beings, he wasn't surprised by their reaction.

"Converts are fanatical, aren't they?"

Lu Bai nodded, and casually stretched his wrists. "But having a deathmatch fighter deal with me is really a bit boring, isn't it?"

"It's just that we three Mona Warriors are in charge of this area, so we arrived a little faster," the square-faced man on the right side of the pillar of light explained indifferently.

The man with the afro standing on the left sneered and added, "But for a mere human like you, three of us Mona Warrior are enough."

Lu Bai didn't say anything more, and casually read the abilities of the three death fighters.

The six pillars of light surrounding him instantly went out and disappeared; were it not for the six holes left in the floor, it would have been as if they had never existed.

He stood still, his gaze shifting between the three fighters.

He said thoughtfully, "The so-called Mona Warrior, Mona, is that the name of the race of your Lords?"

Upon hearing this, the man with the mustache flew into a rage. "Insolence! How dare you, a lowly human being, address the Lord by His name! I will personally..."

After taking two steps toward Lu Bai, he suddenly froze in place.

This is when they realized their abilities had vanished just as they were about to launch an attack.

Lu Bai raised his right hand, extended his index finger, and drew the number "1" in front of him.

Three invisible wind blades swept out, the force of the wind like knives, and the three so-called Mona Warrior were instantly decapitated.

He didn't waste any time; barring any unforeseen circumstances, the three of them didn't even have time to report the information.

The white-robed master watched as Lu Bai effortlessly dispatched three Mona Warriors, his pupils dilating in shock.

As a member of the Mona people, he knew very well how valuable the title of Mona Warrior they bestowed upon him was. Even a Deathmatcher who had won first place three times in Deathmatch Showdown had only just met the threshold to become Mona Warrior.

Yet even these battle-hardened veterans, when bound together, couldn't last a single round against Lu Bai.

"How exaggerated!"

Mona people in white robes was terrified. He didn't say anything about how terrifying it was or that this boy should not be allowed to live, because they originally intended to kill Lu Bai on the spot. He just felt a lingering fear that he couldn't suppress.

Although he was reluctant to admit it, this exaggerated performance was the strongest among all the deathmatchers he knew.

"Thank goodness, thank goodness, thank goodness you stepped forward voluntarily. If you had been given more time to grow, I'm afraid we really wouldn't have been able to handle it."

After saying that, he ran wildly towards the hotel entrance without looking back.

Having learned from the experience of the cracked ceiling in the restaurant, the Spokesperson of the settlements present noticed the actions of the white-robed Mona people and followed without hesitation.

Upon seeing this, Lu Bai knelt down on one knee.

He clenched his right fist and placed it flat on the ground, offering a kind reminder.

"If you're afraid of getting caught in the crossfire, you don't need to go through all this trouble."
