Chapter 289 An Unexpected but Not Unexpected Opponent

Nanami briefly told Chabai what happened.

"Well...he didn't even tell me." Chabai looked at the fruit wine in the cup in his hand with a solemn gaze.

"Maybe he thinks there is no danger." Nanami comforted him, and then said: "The fact is... this kind of mission where there is no life and death in the fight, there is really nothing for him to worry about."

"It's not that simple..." Cha Bai looked at Wen Ke and said, "Sorry, it's our first time meeting."

Wenke was stunned: "Ah, ha, what are you apologizing for?"

Cha Bai: "Li Nuo must have caused you a lot of trouble. I ask you to be tolerant of him."

Wenke was a little at a loss. He had seen Marjie before, but this was indeed the first time he had seen Chabai. When he first saw the girl, he could smell a faint smell of blood from her body. This was Wenke. Ke's ability, or in other words, the self-preservation ability he has developed over the years as a businessman, is the ability to know the danger in advance.

In the past two years, the only failure was with Li Nuo. The main reason was that Li Nuo was too harmless and even kind-hearted when he wasn't being aggressive.

Cha Bai is different. She has a look that doesn't take the life of strangers seriously, so Wenke is very surprised why this girl has dangerous energy, but is so... gentle...

Behind Chabai, Nanami held up a piece of paper, which read: That guy's family.

Wenke suddenly realized: "Oh...poor girl, she must have been abducted by him and used as a murder tool."

Anyway, in his eyes, it was impossible for Li Nuo to do normal things.

Cha Bai was stunned: "What you said... is correct..."

"You are his family member, right?" Wenke asked according to what was written on Nanami's paper.

Cha Bai nodded slightly, "Yeah."

Wenke smiled: "Girl...are you good at talking?"

Cha Bai: "Maybe."

Wink: "Let him quit the guild."

Cha Bai: "That's not okay, I can't control it."

Wink: "Then what can you do?"

Cha Bai: "It depends on what you can give."

Snap! Nanami slapped her forehead: "It looks more and more like it."

Wen Ke didn't know what was going on, and it took him a few seconds to think about it: "We are really a family."

Cha Bai stretched out his hand: "Mr. Wenke, please show me the transaction list between Li Nuo and you."

Although she didn't know about the transaction list, she was aware of Li Nuo's style of doing things. There was a high probability that this guy would draw up a self-proclaimed "equivalent exchange" list based on the principle of non-equivalence, in exchange for more tasks. thing.

Wink handed her the list.

Cha Bai glanced at him and said, "He's pretty good to you."

Winkel was amused: "How to say it?"

Chabai's eyes pointed outside the house and whispered softly: "There is a man in red clothes standing in the alley outside. That man is obviously not from the lower class, but he appears nearby. There is a high probability that he is the one who paid for your money." The employer of the transaction, right?" She looked up at Nanami and asked, "What does the red dress in Basel mean in "The End of Eternity"?

Nanami frowned and looked at Wenke, wondering: "Church personnel in the upper structure?"

Basel takes "classics" as its basic governance principle. The religious leadership class are called "cardinals" and live in the mansions of the upper classes.

"Even if he is not a member of the church on the upper level of the central tower, he is at least an upper-class person." Cha Bai took a sip of the fruit wine in his hand, and then continued: "I can see that, and Li Nuo can 100% see that he has better insight than me. It's not just a little bit of strength, then, Mr. Wenke, Li Nuo is entrusted by the upper class to ask for something like this, which is actually a great deal of honor to Mr. Wenke."

No...he just didn't want to make Wenke bald all at once, Nanami complained, she had learned to complain silently.

But no matter what, saying this will make Wenke feel... that guy seems to be pretty good... This is a problem of human nature.

From this perspective, Wenke suddenly realized the horror of Chabai.

She used the perspective of family members to force Wenke to think from a high point that even if he was killed, he still made a profit. This trick was as effective as Tsukuyomi, or PUA for short, in certain situations.

Of course Wenke knew that she was not very knowledgeable, but because of the dignity and face of a businessman and a grown man, he could only forcefully accept her.

"What you said... I feel like I should try my best to get the things for him..."

"Do what you can, Mr. Wenke, after all, even if you can't do it." Chabai paused: "We can't kill you as an aborigine."

Wink's throat rolled.

Chabai picked up a pen on the table, scribbled it on the paper, and then wrote something new.

"Something for prophecy or divination?"

"Well, I heard you have a lot of interesting things in your hands."

Wink stood up and went to the back warehouse and took out a cracked mirror.

【Magic Mirror, Magic Mirror】

[Quality: Ordinary]

[Effect: Make an unreliable divination, but sometimes it is quite reliable. It can be used three times, but it will be completely broken after three times]

[Brief description: Anyway, the things it predicts should not be taken too seriously. The best way is to ask for a rough idea. When it comes to details, it will start talking nonsense]

Chabai accepted it with peace of mind. In view of the fact that Marjie felt that strange things had always happened recently, she thought that Wenke might have some weird gadget that could work wonders.

Wen Ke stood in front of the table, lit a cigarette and said, "Is that guy okay? It's been so long, didn't they say five games would be enough?"

Nanami: "Is he addicted to fighting?"

"Not really... He doesn't like fighting, I'm just worried that he'll do something he shouldn't do." Cha Bai looked at Nanami and said, "You've seen it, he only needs two hours to destroy a city beyond recognition."

Nanami was a little uneasy, thinking of the scenes in the ticket-stealing script.

Cha Bai raised his head, drank the fruit wine in the glass, stood up with a slightly red face, walked to the door and bowed slightly to Wen Ke: "Then I'll trouble you again, Mr. Wen Ke."

The door closed, Wen Ke touched his chin: "That boy really found a good woman... If I had married such a woman, I wouldn't have cheated."

"Don't be shameless." Nanami scolded, looking at the closed door, and asked a little puzzled: "By the way, it's been so long, he won't... really want to harm the people of Cairo, right?"

...

Li Nuo can't harm the people of Cairo.

He knows when to toss and when to hide.

The banana-shaped freight truck is driving on the bumpy dirt road.

In the desolate and desolate terrain, the truck tires ignore the characteristics of the special terrain and exert the speed of lightning and steady feeling to the fullest.

The driver was a gorilla, a transport driver for Cairo Freight Company. He wore self-defense goggles, held a carrot in his mouth, and smelled of oil. Although he was a gorilla, he looked a little handsome just by looking at his lonely temperament that had been accompanying the road for many years...

"Then I'll take it."

Li Nuo held a yellow-orange bullet in his hand.

The gorilla looked over, then turned back coldly without saying a word.

The story started three hours ago.

Li Nuo, in line with the principle that a thief never leaves empty-handed, robbed the car of the armed gangster while borrowing a gun.

He couldn't leave such a huge planet without exploring it freely, even if he had less than four hours.

The fact was that he couldn't play too big. There was only a freight station in the surrounding area of ​​100 miles, except for scattered residents.

This planet was still an undeveloped area and was too desolate at the moment.

Li Nuo could only drive for an hour to a gas station, where he encountered a gorilla tied to a tree next to the gas station with a hideous face.

Yes, it was the one driving now.

This guy couldn't speak human language, but from his eyes, Li Nuo guessed that his banana was stolen.

Following the smell, Li Nuo found the robber.

The bananas in the truck were used as props by the robbers, but Li Nuo thought... it wasn't for him anyway, so after taking the things back, he watched the gorilla brother eat bananas while gestures "telling" its story.

Anyway, Li Nuo didn't understand.

Then he remembered something.

When racing in Cairo, he instigated the secretary of the gorilla director and shot the gorilla director.

As a character in a funny game, Li Nuo, or even Sauron, couldn't do anything to them, and even the mirror master couldn't find a good way to kill the Cairo people.

As a race on the Cairo star, the gorilla must have mastered the black technology that can kill the Cairo people.

Thinking so, Li Nuo asked for the reward he wanted.

The sound of the exploding engine resounded through the night sky, and the rough body of the banana truck rolled over the scattered dead grass.

Under the turbid sky, the gorilla man wearing goggles took out a banana with a cold face and swallowed it without peeling it.

Li Nuo got a bullet from this guy.

[Cairo Bullet]

[Quality: Trash~Epic]

[Effect: Only effective for specific races, it is a rubber bullet when it hits other races]

[Brief description: It cannot be mass-produced because it is a thing of causality. In the world of Cairo, it is difficult to get this thing except for those companies and people in high positions]

[Note: Cairo race-specific ammunition, those who are not of their race will get the negative effect "Big Fool" after using it]

This is the ammunition used by their freighters for self-protection. The way gorillas shoot is very special. Because of their strong power, they don't need to pull the trigger, just use their fingers to eject it.

However, Li Nuo thinks that this bullet should not be used for the gorilla freighters to protect themselves, but for suicide.

Besides, he picked up a [Pixel Stone] on the way.

There was only one stone left that could turn Dou Long into a dragon lady. It was good to replenish the stone here.

Li Nuo thought so and looked out the window.

The vibration of the wheels attracted countless insects to jump around.

The truck stopped in front of the arena.

Li Nuo got off the truck.

Then he took a ticket from the gorilla freight driver.

[The order receipt of the truck driver "Leonardo Hard Man"]

[Quality: Excellent]

[Effect: Summon Leonardo Hard Man as a driver. This hard man is one of the best drivers on the planet. He can drive at a speed of 180 miles per hour without turning. His driving skills are so dazzling that he can repair the wardrobe while driving]

[Serious effect: Fill in the number on the order receipt. If Mr. Hard Man is satisfied with the number of gold coins, he will appear beside you to serve you as a driver. He does not accept other business except driving]

[Brief description: It is Leonardo Tough Guy, an ape born on the Tough Guy Planet. We call it Tough Guy for short. Tough Guy aspires to be a damn hippie since he was a child. Later, he went to the Earth of South Park. After being toyed with by the evil god, he lost his innocence. His dick was turned into a cross screwdriver by the evil god. In order to find the trace of the evil god, Mr. Leonardo Tough Guy became a glorious freightman, hoping to pick up the evil god in the box from the box one day]

Li Nuo felt strange no matter how he looked at it... This story... It's so fucking outrageous.

When he raised his head, there was only a black dot left in the reflection of the banana truck in his eyes.

"So fast..."

He took out his pocket watch, and there was still one hour left.

Exploration is not the main line, winning the arena is the main line, and Li Nuo knows which is more important.

Three hours ago, he made a mark on the wall outside his waiting room.

Now, just go back to the marked point, use the [Evil Witch's Decoction] again to enter the waiting room, and finally use the [Teleport Sticker] to return to the competition venue, and you can get through the level without anyone noticing.

Back to the marked point, a little Cairo is peeing on the wall next to him.

Li Nuo decided to wait for the little thing to finish peeing before going in.

Ten minutes later.

Li Nuo: "Is there something wrong with your kidneys?"

The little thing peed for ten minutes.

Little Cairo: "() stinky hooligan."

Li Nuo took out an empty bottle: "Pee in."

Little Cairo: "(°°) ah? Ah ah ah?"

He thought that Cairo's urine might be diluted to make materials for alchemy. Although he had tried Cairo's body fluids before and didn't make anything good, perseverance is a matter of principle.

The little guy thought he had met a pervert, and he ran away while peeing in fear.

This time, there was no one around, so Li Nuo calmly took out the [Decoction Grid] and used the [Evil Witch's Decoction] to get into the wall.

After using the decoction, put it in the backpack grid and wait for 12 hours for it to be automatically refilled. If there is still some left in the bottle, add some "mercury", "dwarf liquor" and "crow's eye" to boil it again, but the second method is half the effect of the original effect and half the toxicity. So generally, Li Nuo does not use the second method, firstly because it is time-consuming, and secondly because he has enough decoctions and has alternative options.

However, there is no alternative for the [Evil Witch's Decoction], so he can only bite the bullet and get in.

As a result, the weapon box got stuck in the wall...

Li Nuo took a long time to pull the box out, and then moved the cabinet to cover the wall.

When he returned to the competition venue, he was the only one in the arena.

[Winning streak: four rounds]

Li Nuo looked at the words on the panel, looked around, and roughly understood that the woman with exposed thighs must have left because she was tired of waiting.

At that time, Riluo Riluo was reading the script in another broadcast room, and was suddenly dragged away by the director.

"That guy is back."

"But I don't want to commentate on his game..."

"Do you think others want to commentate on him?"

"(`)Then why is it me..."

"Because it's your first day at work today." The director said very seriously: "Bullying newcomers is an open rule in the workplace."

Riluo Riluo sat back and turned on the broadcast microphone.

"Welcome our 'cowardly' player back..."

It looked at the arena behind the broadcast camera silently. Most of the audience seats were empty, and most of them were indescribable mosaics.

Li Nuo's eyes pointed to the gate opposite.

He suddenly felt a little uneasy...

"Due to the frequent urination of the 'cowardly' player, most of our games have been skipped. Now there are less than 30 players still in the game. This opponent is also a bastard who has been waiting in the venue without fighting. You two are really a match."

The door opened.

"I have been waiting for you for a long time."

A familiar voice sounded along with the doctor who walked out.

"Xing Kai?"

"Hey~ It's fate, the low-blood boy."

Both of them had thick smoke on their faces, and they couldn't see each other's faces, but the uneasy thoughts were reflected in their tone.

"Did you wait for me on purpose?" Li Nuo asked.

Xing Kai took out a cigarette, lit it and said, "About the same."

Li Nuo asked, "Do you have privileges?"

"Yeah." The smoke from Xing Kai's mouth merged with the mist around his face. He said slowly, "I have a cooperative relationship with the Star Hunters, and I travel among the major galaxies. I came here to work as a doctor recently. You know, the hospitals in South Park are all absurd."

The behavior patterns of people in "South Park" are even more absurd and untraceable, especially in their hospitals. Replacing your heart with a potato during surgery is considered basic.

But Li Nuo discovered another problem.

Li Nuo: "Xing Kai, you are less than 40... I remember you said you were in your thirties?"

Xing Kai understood that the other party seemed to have seen through it: "Well... I am... probably older than you this year... I have forgotten the details."

"So... you..."

"My native world does not belong to any of "Cairo", "South Park" and "Imperial Inquisition". I was brought here by a group of Cairo aliens, but who can remember how long it has been." Xing Kai paused and asked, "How did you see it?"

"Living and working with these ridiculous creatures is something a normal person like me can't do. You may die one day, so in reality you must be abnormal. Besides..." Li Nuo frowned: "Look, Xing Kai, you said that you follow the interstellar hunters everywhere, and the intervals between interstellar travels are not that short, but you are still assigned to work everywhere, which means that you have at least been a doctor for many years, then It should be longer than our lifespan. The unit I work for now has an interstellar hunter (Julie). Although she conceals her identity, I checked and she left behind..."

"Okay, this is not the key." Xing Kai heard that he had almost finished smoking a cigarette, and he said: "I see you for no other reason, can your brain guess it?"

"Can't guess."

"Stop pretending."

"Then you ask?"

"Oh, when I met you from Zekou, you already knew a lot of things, right?" Participate as reinforcements.”

"Are you..." Li Nuo originally wanted to say, "Are you mentally retarded?" but stopped when he reached his mouth.

Taking the risk of exposing one's own information to potential opponents just for this reason can be said to be "mentally retarded", but when I think of Xing Kai's identity as [the rescuer], some things seem to be made clear.

"For Annabell?" Li Nuo thought of Xing Kai's sweetheart in "NieR" and the female Yoshiha machine No. G13 Annabell who also saved Chabai's life.

Xing Kai nodded. Annabell saved Cha Bai and indirectly saved Li Nuo.

"I don't want her hard work to be lost."

"The implication behind the words is that neither I nor Sauron can defeat you."

"I guess so."

"So the blind girl's target at that time was not me, but to search for Sauron's information."

When Li Nuo said this, Xing Kai's eyes hidden in the smoke turned eerie black.

"Li Nuo..."

"Let me give it a push." ​​Li Nuo touched his chin, bit his thumb, and said slowly in his mind: "[Critical One] has the ability to predict the future, so he knows that he will face Sauron, a powerful person. The outrageous opponent knew through the prophecy that Sauron would appear in Icarus, and also found the CD to Icarus through the prophecy. This shows that his precognitive dream has some time limitations, but it can indeed use it to make the blind girl Enter Icarus one step ahead to detect Sauron's abilities."

"Then you used some means to break down part of Sauron's data and the fact that he invited us as reinforcements for the fighting competition." Li Nuo pointed his finger on the tip of his nose, shook his head, and then said: "But you show up now , which explains another question, besides Annabell, does Xing Kai, [Critical Person] not know whether I will go to the script of 'Fighting Competition'?"

Xing Kai: "..."

Li Nuo continued: "That is to say, we have some restraint, or...the movements of a few of us are the blind spots of [Critical Ones]'s precognitive dreams, and are the only unexpectedness. This is why you have to appear. , playing the emotional card, telling me not to go into that script? Let me guess what that restraint is?"

Xing Kai: "Li Nuo..."

Li Nuo: "The person who has cracked destiny."
