Chapter 260

The elevator leading to the twentieth floor and above wasn't crowded. Fang Ming casually stole a staff member's ID from their pocket, entered the elevator, and after trying it a few times, Fang Ming said rather impatiently:

"Cough cough... So... there's no way to get there directly? Oh well... cough cough..."

As he spoke, he coughed as if he had caught a cold, and chose the floor closest to the office of Tucker, the leader of the Crocodile Brotherhood.

As the elevator started moving, the people in the monitoring room also noticed Fang Ming, this uninvited 'guest'.

A burly Black man stared at the screen and spoke into the walkie-talkie:

"A group of people came to the sixtieth floor, and a sickly-looking guy sneaked in."

The elevator is already running; its destination is the sixtieth floor of the Crocodile Brotherhood.

This is the highest floor that ordinary staff can reach; above that are the offices of the Crocodile Brotherhood's true core members.

Upon discovering that someone had infiltrated the group, the Crocodile Brotherhood's security personnel immediately organized a team to head towards the person's destination.

Armed with batons and pistols at their waists, they swarmed toward the location Fang Ming was about to reach.

Clearly, they didn't want to argue with the person who had infiltrated; they just wanted to capture him and interrogate him.

Fang Ming, inside the elevator, seemed unaware of what was happening outside. He even leaned comfortably against the cold elevator wall, rhythmically tapping his cane with his fingers, as if playing an unknown melody.

Two minutes later, the elevator arrived at its destination.

The elevator doors opened, and Fang Ming and the gang members inside and outside the elevator stared at each other. The atmosphere and the music instantly became tense.

(What happened? Why did my cousin go to the Crocodile Brotherhood?)

(Is it because in the previous episode... oh no, the episode before that, the Crocodile Brotherhood went after Aurora?)

(Maybe so, but isn't it a bit unwise for my cousin to go alone? Even though he's a very good fighter...)

(Wait a minute, isn't that what you're focusing on? Haven't you noticed that my cousin's behavior is a bit off lately?)

(I think I'm sick, I'm coughing so badly...)

(Even if you want revenge for Aurora, why go while you're sick? What's going on??)

The opening of the eighth episode presented viewers with a question that left them scratching their heads in confusion.

That's Fang Ming's illness.

Fang Ming was perfectly healthy in episode six, so how did he suddenly become sickly three days later?

Could it be a cold and fever?

If that's the case, shouldn't you be taking a good rest? Why did you personally go to the Crocodile Brotherhood seek revenge?

The audience couldn't understand it, and the Magical Girls were equally puzzled and worried.

"Brother Fang Ming..."

Upon seeing Fang Ming's seemingly weak appearance in the Sky Screen, Xiao Chun immediately forgot about Xiaoxia's attitude towards Fang Ming and wanted to go to the balcony to find Xiao Bai and ask for an explanation.

But before she could go to find Xiao Bai, Xiao Bai jumped off the balcony, gave her a barely perceptible shake of her head to signal her to calm down, and then continued to look at the Sky Screen.

Seeing Xiao Bai in real life made Xiao Chun feel a little more at ease. After calming down, she realized that Fang Ming in the Sky Screen and Fang Ming in real life had embarked on two completely different paths.

Regardless of what happened to Fang Ming in the Sky Screen, at least he was alright in reality.

Xiao Chun doesn't need to worry too much.

"This is really something, a grand welcome... ahem..."

Seeing a crowd gathered in the corridor outside, Fang Ming coughed lightly, gripped his cane tightly in his right hand, and said softly:

Who are you?!

A gang member stood in front of Fang Ming and questioned him sternly.

Fang Ming gripped the brim of his baseball cap, lifted it slightly, and said to them:

"My name is Fang Ming... cough cough... um, a writer, you should know me... I contacted you before, but unfortunately... cough cough, your boss ignored me, so I had no choice but to come uninvited."

"Writer? We don't know any writers! This isn't a place for you, get out now!"

The gang member said sternly.

Although he claimed not to know Fang Ming, his actions showed no intention of arresting Fang Ming. Clearly, he knew Fang Ming and was concerned about his reputation, which is why he planned to let Fang Ming go.

Unfortunately, Fang Ming came today and has no intention of leaving.

"That won't do... I don't have much time. Since your boss doesn't want to see me, then I'll go see him myself... cough cough..."

"You're asking for it, aren't you?!"

Seeing that Fang Ming was unresponsive, the gang leader swung his baton and struck Fang Ming on the head.

They're a gang; gangs do whatever they want. A mere well-known writer was given a lot of leeway by being told to leave after barging in. But if he stubbornly insists on going in, they won't hold back!

As I said before, he's just a writer.

Unfortunately, Fang Ming's identity is not limited to just being a 'writer'.

"Sigh... that's why I hate you people from the Americas District... cough..."

Fang Ming sighed, and as he spoke, he raised his cane, the tip of which, like a drawn sword, slammed into the chin of the person in front of him with a thud.

"Forehead--!"

The man's eyes rolled back instantly after being struck hard in the chin, and he froze in place. A second later, he fell straight to the ground, still in the position of swinging the baton.

Silence.

The man's fall caused a brief silence among the surrounding gang members, but they quickly reacted and began shouting:

"Those who want to cause trouble!!"

"Kill him!!!"

"Beat him up!!! Let me do it!!"

In the narrow corridor, a dozen gangsters crowded towards Fang Ming.

Faced with the surging gangsters, Fang Ming simply lowered the brim of his hat. His steps were steady, and the distance between his steps never exceeded half a meter. In this narrow space, he made dodging and counterattack movements.

The cane in his hand seemed to be imbued with a spell that could induce drowsiness.

Each throw will inevitably cause one person to lose consciousness.

In the first ten seconds, four people fell down in front of Fang Ming. In the second ten seconds, Fang Ming stepped over the four 'sleeping' people on the ground and continued forward, causing five more people to lie down on the ground.

In the third ten seconds, the gang members behind him finally realized that the man in front of them was not easy to deal with, and one of them immediately pulled out a pistol and pointed it at Fang Ming.

But then he was knocked to the ground by the human shield that Fang Ming threw at him.

In less than thirty seconds, almost all of the dozen or so gang members were lying on the ground.

Only the last gang member, who was furthest away, stood at a distance and promptly drew his pistol, aiming it at Fang Ming.

"Go to hell!!"

Bang!!!

Gunshots rang out, but the gang member showed no sign of relief; instead, his face was filled with shock.

Because Fang Ming is completely unharmed!

He actually dodged the bullets in front of this gang member!!

Volume 3 Side Story <Magical Girl Aurora>: Chapter 286 Bro, are you really still human?

"No... no! This is impossible!!! Die, die, die--!!"

Bang bang bang bang!!

The remaining gang members pulled the trigger like madmen, and bullets flew rapidly toward the man in front of them.

However, Fang Ming simply twisted his body and tilted his head to dodge several bullets from the gang member. Some of the bullets didn't even need to be dodged; they just whizzed past him.

Clearly, the gang member was firing wildly and had lost his accuracy, leaving Fang Ming with no Desire to even dodge.

Bang!

Clang!!

The final shot was fired. At such close range, Fang Ming did not dodge, but what he did shocked the gangster even more!

Before the gang members could fire, Fang Ming raised his cane.

The bullet struck the cane with a crisp sound, and the bullet, which had been fired, was embedded in the middle of the cane's shaft, directly blocked by Fang Ming!

"This... this is impossible--! Uh--"

The remaining gang members screamed as if they had seen a monster, seemingly losing their minds.

But then Fang Ming very 'kindly' gave him a tap with his cane, lulling him into a deep sleep.

Thus, the Sky Screen had been in place for only a minute.

All the gang members who arrived on this floor were dealt with by Fang Ming.

(Holy crap!!!)

(Holy crap!!!!)

(The last unlucky guy probably didn't even need to be knocked unconscious; he was scared to death himself www)

(... A seemingly thin and weak man, using only a cane, defeated more than a dozen enemies without taking any damage, dodged bullets, and even blocked bullets with his cane... If you don't faint when you see someone like that, you must be the one who [thumbs up])

(Bro, are you really human?? Hmm?? Is this something a human could do????)

(Theoretically speaking, as long as the trajectory of the bullet is calculated in advance and the firing time is predicted, dodging the bullet is entirely feasible... Damn it, I can't make this up anymore! This is ridiculous, you know?!)

(This is for dramatic effect, for dramatic effect!! My real cousin certainly wouldn't be this strong... right?)

No, the real Fang Ming is only stronger.

Even Fang Ming on the Sky Screen actually restrained himself quite a bit. If it weren't for the need to prevent ordinary people from noticing the existence of his extraordinary abilities, the battle between Fang Ming and the gangsters in the Sky Screen would probably have been resolved in an instant, even if Fang Ming hadn't transformed.

"... That's amazing."

Below the Sky Screen, Xilisi sighed, but at the same time she asked with doubt, "But, my cousin doesn't seem to be feeling well... Is he alright?"

Because Fang Ming's nickname on the Sky Screen was "cousin," that's also how Xilisi Fang Ming.

Xiao Qiu was very worried. "I don't know, Brother Fang Ming... he seems to have gone out to gather materials and find inspiration, but... he should be alright, right?"

"Don't worry, it'll be fine."

Xiao Bai walked over and said softly.

Currently, she is nominally Fang Ming's sister, and is also the only person Fang Ming has contact with at this stage. Her words are quite reliable, which puts Xiao Qiu and the others at ease.

"But Fang Ming inside the Sky Screen... his situation is definitely not right."

Xiao Chun asked worriedly, her gaze inadvertently glancing towards Xiao Bai.

Xiao Bai gently shook his head at Xiao Chun and Telepathy to her:

' Fang Ming in the Sky Screen was probably affected by the Erosion Form, but it shouldn't be a big problem. I know myself.'

Because Xiao Bai understands herself, she believes that Fang Ming wouldn't do things she's not confident about.

Despite his sickly and weak appearance, Fang Ming's fighting skills revealed that although he had become weak, he was not so weak as to be in mortal danger.

For Xiao Bai, as long as he's alive, everything's fine.

Survival is the most important thing.

Fang Ming, like a war god, rampaged through the Crocodile Brotherhood's building.

At the highest level of the Crocodile Brotherhood, Tucker sat at his desk, watching the surveillance footage on his laptop, cold sweat dripping down his forehead.

He asked his white deputy standing beside him:

"You mean, this guy... single-handedly took down dozens of us using only a cane?!"

"... It's not just a few dozen anymore, Boss." The white deputy also felt a bit thirsty. He pulled up the latest surveillance footage and said:

"He single-handedly took care of the security on the 61st, 62nd, and 63rd floors... and... he... didn't even kill anyone!"

"What do you mean by not killing him??" Tucker's eyes widened.

"... meaning he probably didn't use his full strength, Boss."

"F**K!!! How did you guys mess with this super soldier?! And why is he causing me trouble?!"
