All Heavens Projection System!

"Hmm? Sounds like someone's calling for help?"

The drunken Ge Xiaolun jolted awake the moment he heard someone crying for help.

"Old Bai! Hurry, come with me! Someone needs a hero's help!"

Ge Xiaolun took a deep breath and sprang to his feet.

He slowly pulled up the collar of his low-neck sweater to cover half his face, waved at Bai He, then quickly ran toward the scene.

"Hey! Lun Ge, at least bring a beer bottle with you! You're really going over there empty-handed?..."

Watching Ge Xiaolun's retreating figure, Bai He felt like ten thousand Grass Mud Horses were stampeding through his heart. He simply did not know what to say.

You were just a useless high school student. You were relying on that Magic Nullifying Q, which was still basically useless, and running over empty-handed to brawl with an experienced street thug. Of course you'd get beaten senseless! At least bring a beer bottle. It wasn't any trouble...

Bai He could not help grumbling inwardly.

But Lun Ge was the thigh he planned to cling to in the future. He could not just stand there and watch him get beaten up.

"Whatever!"

Bai He gritted his teeth, grabbed a half-finished beer bottle from a table, and hurried after him.

"Lun Ge, I'm coming!"

As the saying went, there were four kinds of unbreakable bonds in life.

Having carried guns together, studied together, split stolen loot together, and visited prostitutes together.

Though Bai He found the last one hard to understand, getting beaten together should barely count as a bond too, right?

Uh... even if it did not count as a major bond, it should count as a minor one, right?! ╮(╯▽╰)╭...

At that moment, in the alley.

"Hehe! Little miss, give your Chuang Ye a smile..."

Liu Chuang chuckled lewdly, bracing both arms against the wall and trapping a girl in the corner.

"Yeah, yeah! Give D Ge a smile, hehe..."

"That's right, that's right. Smile for us, smile..."

Beside him, two thug-like lackeys laughed strangely and egged him on, delighted by the spectacle.

"Tap, tap, tap..."

Amid a burst of footsteps, Ge Xiaolun arrived at the scene, panting heavily.

At first glance, he saw two young thugs, one tattooed and one with a bandana around his head, raising their hands and shouting along.

Looking farther ahead, he saw that scumbag thug called Da D again—the same one he had encountered before.

"Bastard!"

Ge Xiaolun became furious. It was this guy again. A dog really could not stop eating shit!

"Silence!"

Taking in the scene before him, Ge Xiaolun shouted loudly.

"Hehe! Heh... cough, cough, cough..."

Liu Chuang's grin froze. He failed to catch his breath, and saliva went down the wrong pipe.

His face immediately turned bright red, and he dropped to his knees, clutching his throat as he coughed.

Once he recovered, Liu Chuang turned and saw who had come. It was that cowardly loser who had ruined his fun last time.

"Fuck, it's you again, you cowardly trash! You think I won't recognize you just because you covered your face? What, you're here looking for another beating?"

Liu Chuang rolled his neck, clapped his hands, and stood up. The flesh on his face twitched as he looked at Ge Xiaolun with contempt and mocked him.

Ge Xiaolun clenched his fists at those words. His blood surged, and rage shot to his head.

He had actually called him a loser?!

That was looking down on him way too much!

"Ahhh! Ahhh! Ahhh!"

Beside himself with rage, Ge Xiaolun roared and charged straight at Liu Chuang.

Smack! Thud!

With the sound of a brick striking him, a bloody tooth flew from Ge Xiaolun's mouth, and his body crashed heavily to the ground.

"Hehe, oh my! Kid, still haven't learned your lesson? And your face is pretty thick too. Look, you even broke the brick!"

Liu Chuang released the brick, now broken into several pieces, spread his hands, and burst into laughter.

The two little thugs beside him also laughed uproariously.

"You... you!"

Ge Xiaolun pushed himself up from the ground, veins bulging on his face. He clenched his fists, then suddenly spat on the ground and raised his middle finger at Liu Chuang.

He said, one word at a time, "Scum!"

"Oh-ho! You little bastard, do you know who I am? Your D Ge, known as the Man-Eating Dog! You fucking dare mess with me? Huh!"

Liu Chuang put his hands on his hips, pointed at himself, and advanced with a vicious expression.

"If I don't teach you a lesson, you really won't know how high the sky is or how thick the earth is!"

"Stop!"

Damn, he had finally made it!

Bai He wiped away his sweat and tightened his grip on the beer bottle.

"Oh? Kid, you brought help? Doesn't matter. Your D Ge isn't afraid. Today, I'm taking on both of you!"

Liu Chuang spread his hand, held out two fingers, and smiled disdainfully.

"Boys, watch closely. Watch how your boss fights. Pay attention and learn!"

Even while boasting, Liu Chuang did not forget to show off in front of his lackeys.

These two brats were obviously students. Not only were they inexperienced, they would not dare hit hard. They only knew how to charge straight in. One punch and I'll finish him! Hmph...

As he thought, Liu Chuang rubbed his hands together and assumed a defensive stance.

It was as if he were saying, Come on, then!

Looking at Da D, the vicious-looking thug leader in a pink tank top, Bai He immediately calmed down.

In his previous life, he had been an orphan from childhood and had fought plenty of times. An orphanage was never some place where older brothers were kind and younger brothers respectful. If you were not ruthless, you might not even get enough to eat.

But after entering university, he had honestly settled down and focused on his studies. His skills and instincts had long since declined, and not to mention that the body he had transmigrated into had always belonged to a well-behaved student—weak as hell.

But fighting was not just about clashing head-on.

In his previous life, the reason he had managed to live comfortably from the orphanage all the way to university was not his fighting ability, but the life philosophy he had always upheld.

Thick-skinned, black-hearted, shameless! Ruthless, vicious, merciless!

Those were the things that had allowed him to survive stubbornly until now.

Against Liu Chuang, who was bigger, stronger, more experienced, and more skilled, he definitely could not win in a head-on fight. The only thing he could use now was the other man's contempt.

The more dangerous the situation became, the calmer Bai He grew. After some thought, he quickly devised a strategy.

That was, strike when he was sick and take his life. While Liu Chuang looked down on him, hit him once and make sure he could not get back up!

Bai He tightened his grip on the beer bottle, his gaze cold and steady as he charged fiercely toward Liu Chuang.

Liu Chuang grinned at Bai He rushing toward him and threw a vicious punch.

"Watch out!"

Ge Xiaolun shouted from nearby.

"Hehe, do you think I'm Ge Xiaolun?"

This was the moment! A glint flashed through Bai He's eyes.

Watching the fist draw closer and closer, he suddenly dropped into a low slide to dodge it. Then he sprang up with a kip-up, and before Liu Chuang could react, smashed the beer bottle directly over his head.

Bang!

With the sound of the beer bottle shattering, emerald-green fragments scattered everywhere.

Thud!

Liu Chuang was sent flying and crashed to the ground.

"Motherfucker!"

His head buzzed violently. It took Liu Chuang quite a while to recover. When he touched his head, his hand came away covered in blood, and he cried out in shock.

Bai He's gaze was icy. He tossed away the beer bottle, which now only had the neck left, then gave the two thugs behind him a "savage" grin.

Seeing their boss sitting on the ground with blood all over his head, then seeing the boy before them grinning like an evil ghost, the two thugs were scared out of their wits and scrambled away.

"Fuck! You little bastards, you're just leaving me here alone?"

Liu Chuang clutched the back of his head and watched his lackeys flee in a panic. He was so furious his nose nearly crooked.

"Lun Ge, let's get him together! Beat the crap out of him!"

Bai He glanced at Ge Xiaolun, pointed at Liu Chuang sitting on the ground, and swung his fist.

Behold my Friendship Face-Breaking Punch!

"I'm coming, Old Bai!"

Ge Xiaolun answered, pushed himself to his feet, clenched his fists, and prepared to get revenge.

"Brothers, this time, I, Da D, admit defeat! As the saying goes, leave some room in everything so we can meet again someday. Show some mercy this time, and next time..."

Liu Chuang cupped his fists in salute, but before he could finish speaking, a fist struck him in the face.

"Fuck! Don't push it too far! Your D Ge isn't made of clay either."

"I don't care what you're made of. Ow! Fuck, your bones are kind of hard..."

"Your D Ge is getting angry..."

"Lun Ge! Don't listen to him, just beat the crap out of him!"

"Fuck! Where the hell are you kicking? Ow, my balls!"

The three of them became a tangled mass in the alley.

More than ten minutes later, the three bruised and battered men finally separated.

"Brothers, I surrender, okay? Stop hitting me!"

Liu Chuang, pinned to the ground with a face swollen like a pig's head, begged for mercy.

"Hmph! Scum like you deserves a good beating. You do immoral things every day. Are you even a man?"

Ge Xiaolun, sporting two black eyes, pointed at Liu Chuang.

"Come on, even though I, Da D, am a thug who loafs around every day and does nothing, I really haven't done anything immoral!"

Hearing Ge Xiaolun's words, Liu Chuang defended himself with an aggrieved expression.

"Hehe, then why did you harass Lan Jie back then? The first time I ran into you!"

Ge Xiaolun questioned him.

"I just wanted to show off in front of my lackeys. I really didn't intend to do anything. Same with this time. Otherwise, whenever you showed up, wouldn't all those girls have been perfectly fine? And if that wasn't true, Uncle would've arrested me and thrown me in jail long ago!"

Liu Chuang raised his hands and swore to the heavens, looking like he had been wronged.

"You still think you're in the right? Even if that's true, you're not a good person!"

"Brother! Really, I'll never do this kind of thing again. I've realized my mistakes. I'm going to turn over a new leaf and become a good person from now on!"

Liu Chuang raised a hand and swore earnestly, his face still swollen like a pig's head.

"The lackeys I recruited today ran off without caring about me. Now I finally understand that making friends with those fair-weather pals is useless. If you're going to make friends, make real brothers!"

Looking at Liu Chuang's appearance of having seen the light and deciding to reform himself completely, he did not seem to be lying.

"This..."

Ge Xiaolun hesitated.

"Lun Ge, I don't think he seems completely evil either. Why not give him a chance?"

Seeing Ge Xiaolun hesitate, Bai He suddenly spoke.

Although this Noxian God of War looked bad now, he would become a key force in resisting the Alien Invasion in the future. A man willing to serve his country and fight through bloodshed could not be truly evil.

"Mm, all right! Since my brother said so, I'll give you a chance. But you need to apologize to Lan Jie!"

Since Bai He had said so, Ge Xiaolun went along with it.

He knew that things had turned out this way because of his brother's efforts. He might be a bit of a loser, but he was not stupid.

"As the saying goes, no friendship without a fight. Let's have a meal together and introduce ourselves. We'll wipe the slate clean from now on. As long as you can return to the right path, we'll be brothers whenever we meet in the future!"

Bai He released Liu Chuang, who was pinned beneath him, patted him on the shoulder, and smiled faintly.

"You guys..."

There were actually people willing to think highly of someone from a thug background like him!

Liu Chuang's eyes could not help growing moist. He looked like an arrogant thug boss, but he knew that no one had ever thought highly of him. His dream had always been to gain others' recognition someday. He had thought that dream would never come true, but unexpectedly...

"My name is Liu Chuang. You can just call me Da D. I'm happy to meet brothers like you. From now on, I won't be a thug anymore. I'm going to join the army!"

Liu Chuang wiped away the hot tears at the corners of his eyes and declared loudly.

"Really?"

Ge Xiaolun was doubtful, but he still responded.

"My name is Ge Xiaolun."

"My name is Bai He."

"So, shall we get back to eating?"

Ge Xiaolun scratched his head and turned to walk out.

Bai He and Liu Chuang looked at each other, then followed him out.

Inside Xi Shi BBQ.

Liu Chuang's face had mostly recovered, though it was still somewhat bruised and swollen. He bent forward and sincerely apologized to Lan Jie.

He then patted his chest and said that if she ever had any trouble in the future, she could come to him for help!

Finally, under everyone's strange gazes, he walked over to the table where Bai He and Ge Xiaolun sat and took a seat.

The three of them ate and drank beneath the surrounding crowd's odd looks.

"Ding! The host has altered a portion of the Main World's plot, absorbing 100 points of Source Energy. All Heavens Projection System activation: 1%, 2%, 3%... 100%."

As Bai He and the other two ate and drank, an inexplicable voice suddenly rang out in Bai He's mind.

"All Heavens Projection System? Has my cheat finally arrived?"

Bai He's expression abruptly froze, then he could not help but reveal a trace of delight. Haha, it's finally here!
