The Peculiar Man Luo

Guided by Xiao Qi, Luo Zhe went to the counter to bind his account. 🐸👊 ♞💲

Standing in front of the counter in the Killing Field's lobby, Luo Zhe stared intently at the narration video on the screen, listening to Xiao Qi's patient explanation.

"This Killing Field is divided into a personal Killing Space and Decisive Battle Space for engaging in combat with real opponents."

"At the end of this hall are corridors, each leading directly to a private Killing Space. Inside, you can set up all sorts of opponents—any opponent your master desires—and even Space Secret Technique and Psychic Weapon can be used here. It's the perfect training ground!"

"The Decisive Battle Space is where real Fighter duel each other. Both sides are real humans, not virtual beings. To fight, one must first apply to the other through the system, and the other must accept. If one's strength rating is high enough, challenging someone of a higher level is even allowed in the Decisive Battle Space!"

Luo Zhe nodded.

"Young man, is this your first time in the Killing Field?" A gentle voice sounded behind Luo Zhe.

"Hmm?" Luo Zhe turned his head to look in confusion.

Behind them stood an old man with green skin and a head full of wrinkles, his face full of smiles. Although from Earthling's point of view, the old man's appearance was somewhat unsightly, at first glance, he gave people a strange feeling of kindness and benevolence.

"This is indeed my first time here." Luo Zhe nodded and asked doubtfully, "Who are you?"

"My name is Man Luo, and I'm the head of the Black Dragon Mountain Island branch of this Killing Field." The old man chuckled, "You've been standing in front of this counter for quite a while now. Let me see if you need any help."

I see!

Upon hearing the old man's identity, Luo Zhe couldn't help but take a closer look. He hadn't expected that the head of this Killing Field would actually take the initiative to receive an ordinary guest like him. It seemed that the quality of this cosmic civilization was quite high.

At least, the service was quite pleasant!

Luo Zhe replied with a smile, "I haven't encountered any problems. It's just that it's my first time here, and I'm not very familiar with the Killing Field yet. I'm just watching some video tutorials."

"Does Mr. Man Luo often receive other guests like this?" Luo Zhe asked curiously.

During their conversation, many people passed by, but upon seeing Man Luo standing with Luo Zhe, they all instinctively stopped and walked around her. Among them were several people whom Luo Zhe judged from their spirit and energy to be at the Universe Level, but without exception, they all made their way away.

Luo Zhe caught a glimpse of this scene out of the corner of his eye, and his lips twitched involuntarily.

What's going on?

He just arrived at the Killing Field and was immediately noticed by a seemingly powerful and influential figure? This clearly doesn't fit his low-key and unassuming persona, does it?

It's important to understand that in the Virtual Universe, even immortal beings can't directly kill people! After all, this is just the internet! So, even if a powerful figure respects you, it's a sign of respect. ♨♖ 😲😳 If they don't respect you, don't care about you, or even embarrass you in public, there's nothing you can do about it!

But judging from the behavior of the people around her, Man Luo is probably more than just someone with some power and status!

Man Luo naturally noticed the reactions of those around him, but his expression remained unchanged, still bearing a gentle and kind smile. He replied, "I have a rather volatile temper, so these young people are quite afraid of me."

"But don't worry, I think you're quite pleasing to the eye, and I'd like to get to know you. How about it? Interested in coming over there to sit for a while?" Man Luo said with a smile, pointing to a sofa in the rest area.

"Oh?" Following the direction Man Luo pointed, they saw a sofa in the rest area that was placed some distance away from the surrounding seats. In front of it was a small square table covered with tea and snacks.

Luo Zhe blinked and asked, "If Mr. Man Luo has anything to instruct me on, just tell me here. There's no need to go over there."

"Don't be nervous, I mean you no harm." Man Luo's voice was as gentle and kind as ever, sounding quite like the kind old man next door.

Luo Zhe shrugged noncommittally. There's no such thing as a free lunch in this world, and even if there were, it wouldn't happen to him by sheer coincidence.

In his memory, there are many fragments of memories of "casting a long line to catch a big fish".

It's likely that Man Luo, seeing him as a newcomer, wouldn't refuse the overtures of a powerful figure.

Seeing Luo Zhe's reaction, Man Luo was taken aback, then burst into laughter, shook her head, and said, "Fine, since you're unwilling, I won't force you."

Pointing to the private sofa in the rest area, Man Luo smiled and said, "I usually sit and rest over there. If you're interested anytime, you can come and sit with me for a while." Then, Man Luo laughed and left.

Luo Zhe blinked, a little confused, watching Man Luo's departing figure. He scratched his nose with his finger and asked Xiao Qi, "Xiao Qi, what do you think Man Luo is trying to do? Is she playing the long game?"

Xiao Qi stared at him with wide, curious eyes and asked, "Master, isn't it normal to cast a long line to catch a big fish? Big fish usually only swim in deep water; they're quite rare in shallow water."

"Uh," I forgot that Xiao Qi hasn't connected to Earth's network yet, and doesn't quite understand some of the languages spoken on Earth.

He scratched his head, then thought, "Whatever. Even if Man Luo is incredibly powerful, so what? In the Virtual Universe Network, there's no way to fight him through the network!"

"Xiao Qi, let's go see what that Killing Space is like." Putting the strange Man Luo out of his mind, Luo Zhe said to Xiao Qi, and started walking towards a corridor, going deeper into it.

As they walked, the surrounding space suddenly changed drastically.

The surroundings transformed into a vast starry sky, and Luo Zhe stood on a meteorite. A flash of light appeared in his hand, revealing a golden book. The book seemed to be made of metal, and its pages were also golden. He flipped through the pages and read its contents.

Luo Zhe looked around. "So this is the Killing Space."

"Xiao Qi, send out the request. Send me a hundred Fighter of the same level as opponents." Luo Zhe grinned, subconsciously licking his lips. "So many thrilling battle scenes from my Inherited Memories have made me want to experience a truly exhilarating battle myself. Now I finally have such a great opportunity."

"No problem!"

"Master, I've set the battle environment to a plain, with 100 Planetary Level One opponents using ordinary Origin Force Weapon. What kind of weapon do you need?" Xiao Qi asked Luo Zhe. "Any weapon that exists in the universe can be selected in the Killing Space 99.99% of the time!"

Luo Zhe hesitated for a moment, then replied, "Give me a Long Staff, a Tier Origin Force Weapon."

Although Little Night's existence cannot be exposed so quickly, and therefore she cannot use the Bronze Long Staff directly for the time being, using the Long Staff as a weapon is still fine.

"The application has been submitted!" Xiao Qi said.

Rumble~~ The Killing Space began to change. The original starry sky disappeared, and the surroundings became a vast plain. Luo Zhe Luo Zhe on the plain, wearing a black Force Battle Suit, with a Long Staff as tall as a man standing in front of him. In the distance, a dense group of Fighter wearing white battle suits and holding various weapons appeared in the sky.

"Kill him!" The vast army of Fighter, their eyes bloodshot, charged toward Luo Zhe.

Calvin.
