Volume 1, Chapter 30: An Unexpected Turn

As the words fell, the power of the Dantian realm surged into his hands, severing the connection between the talisman inside the Nine-Tailed Fox and the Fire Dragon Master.

This area was known to players as the Industrial Park. It was filled with all sorts of manufacturers, and to prevent their secret recipes from being stolen by the ancients—which would jeopardize their grand schemes of wealth—the players had spontaneously built a perimeter wall and hired security guards to patrol day and night.

In truth, although Du Mingsheng claimed he would return to pick them up in a month, he had actually been staying at a nearby resort on the Island of Fighting Monsters, closely monitoring Gao Huan’s actions.

Under the system’s secondary categories, achievements spanning every industry were listed in endless succession.

Ge Muchen stood amidst the military formation, his face flushed red; he seemed to be engaged in an arduous tug-of-war, striving to dispel the layer of red light covering the War Golem.

Because of this, all major platforms where "Classic of Mountains and Seas: Subduing Demons" could be downloaded, as well as the official Weibo account of Morning Star Games, were flooded with all manner of vitriol.

Ji Ran stood silently outside the office door for a long while, as if trying to digest this incredible and bizarre reality, but the truth was, he found it impossible to fully accept it all at once.

Seeing Lu Qiyi’s mind wander, Guan Yang pulled her along to help him wrap up the livestream.

A breeze blew by with a whistling sound, carrying thick dust and wisps of light trash through the air.

After returning from her studies abroad, she had sped several times, but she had never once been in an accident. Although she had racked up quite a few tickets, she had always managed to dodge them thanks to her father’s influence. She had gradually grown accustomed to this so-called life of privilege, because in her subconscious, her actions had never really inconvenienced anyone.

Although Lawrence had not passed the selection, as Ding Yu’s attendant, he was granted an exception to remain on Sword Casting Peak to await further arrangements.

I offered a sheepish smile and said nothing more. Watching the man pull a high-intensity flashlight from his backpack and hand one to me and Sima Qian each, he said, "Please, follow me."

He certainly wouldn't feel bad about the goods, so he refused to agree to anything and ran toward the toilet with his bare bottom exposed.

Xi Zhiyu’s expression turned solemn; Long Xiang’s words exerted a clear pressure on him. This trip to Hong Kong appeared to be far more difficult than he had imagined.

The deputy captain, Gao Qiang, was a sturdy man in his thirties who was usually a man of few words. He simply nodded, indicating that he would surely complete the mission.

Blood-colored clouds immediately blanketed the horizon, instantly causing everyone on the scene to change color in alarm.

"Chu Ming, you hooligan, you pervert!" Sima Qian snapped me back to reality with a slap, and I realized I had been lost in thought just moments before.

After pondering for a moment, Claire picked up the phone on the desk. Even if it meant owing a favor, this matter had to be settled, for though he had invested little, the potential future returns were immense.

On the internet, Ren Shuang naturally saw the comments but didn't intend to respond; her sister was her top priority. But Shu Cao was different. Seeing Shen Qinghu’s fans viciously attacking her brother, she was incensed. While Ren Shuang was busy cooking in the kitchen, she logged into Weibo to join the fray.

Subsequent statistics showed that including the medical teams sent in by the United Nations, a total of 78,335 people had perished.

Down in the bottom lane, Guiguzi bypassed the action and slipped directly into the brush. After Lin Mengqian cleared a wave of minions, Guiguzi led her, cloaked in invisibility, toward the enemy’s Blue Buff.

The time he was fighting to gain was for Ling Feng to improve his cultivation or build his forces; only by doing so might he have a sliver of hope for the future.

Ling Feng unleashed his aura, forcefully breaking through the encirclement, his body light as a willow catkin, drifting rapidly toward the City Lord’s Mansion.

As for the origins of this "Black Water Ravine," the bearded man could not explain it clearly; he only knew that such a place existed.

"If it weren't for your failure to protect him, would Jing Rui have been injured? Believe me, the moment Jing Rui wakes up, I will have him fire you." Gu Yufei had been startled by Qiao Yu, but as soon as she thought of her own status compared to Qiao Yu's, her resolve hardened.

While defending the lane in the top position, Lin Han tabbed out to check the livestream, only to find that the chat was in an uproar.

The external technique of knocking was simple: hold the iron rod with both hands, raise it above the head until it was vertical to the sky, and strike downward with force.

Moreover, having seen Gu Yufei head straight for the president’s private elevator the moment she entered, it was his duty to stop her.

Wu Zhiqiang’s nose was heaving with heavy breaths, and streaks of dark, clotted blood flowed from his nostrils. His massive frame rose and fell like a wounded bull.

The Security Bureau was a powerful agency that gathered many talented individuals and featured specialized action teams for dealing with supernatural entities. Although she had chosen not to join a club and instead faced things calmly on her own, she had kept a close eye on such news ever since becoming a player, so she naturally understood the gravity of the Security Bureau.

Though he was somewhat carefree, he was by no means a man who would lower his guard. While slack-off, he remained constantly aware of his surroundings.

In the end, the biker gang was driven out by Yamazaki. However, the man had been cunning; while changing his clothes, he had secretly hidden a short gun on his person.
