Chapter 69 - Grandma's Bedtime Stories

The next afternoon, Xiao Lan returned from training early, having agreed a time with the Wang family brothers. He was sitting on the sofa, counting the contents of his prop backpack and adding some of Luo's supplies to it.

 

Shortly afterwards, there is a knock on the door of the room and the Wang family brothers arrive on time.

 

The first to appear was a little brown curly hair, Wang Taidi bouncing into Xiao Lan's room. Wang Ke, still as cool as ever, followed his brother without a word, acting like a bodyguard.

 

Wang Taidi jumped onto the couch and sat down like a little Taidi with a big smile on his face, he looked very excited: " Xiao Lan, do you know? I'll soon be upgraded to an intermediate player!"

 

Xiao Lan was a bit surprised: "Congratulations, finally this day has come."

 

Wang Taidi looked happy, his small curly hair waving with his movements, "Yeah, I made a lot of money from my last copy, my skills will be activated soon, and my combat power will definitely go up, so I can definitely upgrade to mid-level player, hehehe."

 

Wang Ke interrupts his brother's gloating: "Three years have passed, so be careful not to fall over at the last minute."

 

"Mmmmmmmmm." Wang Taidi nodded his head as if he was listening to his brother, as he usually did, "I know, I won't run off to my death."

 

Xiao Lan then remembered the [unknown child's piggy bank] that always deducted his poverty value, and he painfully took out a coin and gave it to Wang Taidi: "Try to see if this will help you."

 

Wang Taidi took it, then took a closer look at the coin's denomination and shook his head regretfully, "It's no use, my skills say 'we rich people don't bother to pick up small money under 10,000'."

 

Xiao Lan with mixed emotions: "......"

 

Think of his poor skill that is also measured in 10,000 but even counts 0.002.

 

It was at this moment that Xiao Lan understood what it meant to be "different".

 

The group then sat down to discuss the rest of the game. Luo had prepared black tea and snacks for the guests, a fine treat that flattered the brown-skinned Wang family brothers.

 

Wang Taidi eats the crispy, creamy biscuits and is amazed that there is something he hasn't found in the restaurant. He sneaks a peek at Xiao Lan and realises that there are people who are outwardly poor and can't even change their faces when they are eating dark food, but in private they live such a sophisticated life.

Wang Ke, on the other hand, will only take him to the nearest dish to the door in the player's restaurant.

 

It was at this moment that Wang Taidi realised what it means to be 'different'.

 

He looked at his older brother again and decided it was better not to let his brother know what he was thinking at the moment in order not to be pulled by the back of the neck.

 

Luo has indicated that he will also follow Xiao Lan and Wang Taidi into the event.

 

Wang Ke thought for a moment, "Two is safer, of course, and as far as the pay is concerned, I can increase it."

 

Luo declined, "No, I'm just keeping Xiao Lan company, I'm not interested in taking on a mission."

 

Wang Taidi, holding her black tea and chewing on a small biscuit, whispered, "I think I've seen this plot before in a novel."

 

Wang Ke turned his head to stare at him, "You've been peeking at something again, still too idle it seems, double your training schedule, you'll be moving up to intermediate soon anyway."

 

"......" Wang Taidi was full of regret, the little biscuit in his mouth suddenly didn't smell good, his brother's devilish training program, just thinking about it made my body ache ......

 

Seeing his brother wilt, Wang Ke turned to Xiao Lan: " Xiao Lan, have you ever entered the beginner's field since you reached the intermediate level?"

 

Xiao Lan shook his head, "Not really."

 

Wang Ke explained to him, "High level players will have their physique reduced when they enter the low level field, and will be roughly suppressed to around the peak level of junior players, depending on the direction of personal enhancement, while the level of skills will also be reduced, as well as some powerful props will be banned."

 

After that, Wang Ke went on to talk about the use of team props, and gave a very detailed explanation.

 

Xiao Lan, Luo and Wang Taidi entered the game at around 9pm.

As the darkness belonging to the descending world receded, the first thing Xiao Lan noticed was the fragrance of the grass and trees in the mountains, accompanied by the faint sound of insects coming through.

 

It is a wooded area and it is late in the day, with the shadows of the trees so intertwined that it is difficult to see the sky in the distance.

 

Xiao Lan obviously felt the drop in stamina and was a little uncomfortable for a while. The level of [Poverty Can't Limit My Imagination] was restricted to lv.1 and several props were banned from use.

 

But the overall impact isn't great, which of course is a side note to the fact that he's a pathetic poor bastard with no good props.

 

There were nine players in all, and they were standing in a slightly larger clearing in the woods, gathered here seemingly waiting for someone. There was a fire in the middle of the players, the light of which swayed in the mountain breeze, casting a bright and uncertain glow on the faces of the group.

 

Xiao Lan observes the players present, four of whom look nervous.

 

They were either pale and silent, rubbing their hands together, or so nervous that they started biting their nails, even though their fingertips were already bleeding, so they looked like newcomers who had only been through a game or two.

 

The other two were much calmer and looked like they had come together as a group.

 

As Xiao Lan looked at the others, someone else was also looking at the three of them. A fair-skinned, clean-cut teenager among the sedate pair cast a glance in the direction of the trio, and when he saw Wang Taidi, his eyes showed disdain: "Oh, so he's the Wang family's drag queen."

 

Wang Taidi, hearing a description that fitted him well, couldn't help but turn his head to find a teenager he didn't know, but the other man's hostility was still uncomfortable: "Do we know each other?"

 

The teenager said gloomily, "No, how do I deserve to know you as a junior player, I don't have a senior player as a brother, and I still have all the goodies out for me."

 

Wang Taidi was also a little upset: "That's my brother, so what's it to you?"

 

The young man snorted, "Yes, it's none of my business, if I had dragged my brother down so much I would have killed myself long ago, how dare I live in the world and waste food?"

 

Xiao Lan frowned at this, the teenager's words were too vicious, even if they were motivated by jealousy, and he looked to Wang Taidi, wondering if he should help.

 

But Wang Taidi, not at all shy, looked over with a smile, "Unfortunately, it's too late for you to kill yourself and reincarnate, my brother doesn't have a spare brother's place for you."

A look of shame and indignation surfaced on the young man's fair face, "You!"

Wang Taidi pulled out a banner and waved it in front of the teenager: "Mess with me again, or I'll turn you into an old general with flags all over your body."

 

Xiao Lan glanced at the prop description.

 

[Name: FLAG - Junior Edition

 

[Ability: Insert behind a player to increase their risk of death by 10%]

 

[Note: After this battle, I'll go home and get married]

 

When the boy tried to talk back, Wang Taidi fished out a few more flags and waved them silently at him.

 

Teenager: "......"

 

Xiao Lan, who was once happy with a 60% risk of death: "......"

 

If this came to a few, not to mention 60%, even 30% would be tough enough for a new player. And he noticed the words beginner's edition, was there an intermediate and advanced version of this thing?

 

This is probably a descending blow from the Kryptonian players.

 

Wang Taidi's image suddenly became unfathomable in his mind.

 

Seeing that he couldn't get an advantage over the mouth, the teenager was so angry that he turned his head towards the man he had come with and pouted, " Brother Gu Look at him, he just knows how to bully me ......"

 

At the moment, the teenager's eyes were red, and with his fair skin and big watery eyes, he looked like an innocent bunny, and if he hadn't seen how sarcastic he was, Xiao Lan would have believed he was really being bullied.

 

Teenager ...... are you such a double standard as a human being?

The man who just looked down on people who rely on their brother, what difference does it make? At least the Wang Taidi family's brother is still a real brother, but your brother, no matter how you look at it, is a bit too watery.

 

A few other players saw a conflict here and no one stepped forward, they just watched as quiet as chickens.

 

The player whose name was named looked over unhappily, " Wang Ke I don't dare to mess with, but aren't you a bit too arrogant to mess with my people even as a junior player?"

 

Wang Taidi: "Don't you even look at who's messing with who?"

 

The man smiled provocatively, "So what? I'm an intermediate player, what can you beginners do to me? Even Wang Ke wouldn't be able to come after me for a little thing, would he?"

 

Wang Taidi laughed. It was a coincidence that they had an intermediate player on their side, or two.

 

Wang Taidi and Xiao Lan made eye contact and unanimously decided - close the door and let Xiao Lan go.

 

Xiao Lan stepped forward and was about to perform an ancestral unarmed tree split when Luo stepped forward and whispered to Xiao Lan, "Leave it to me, sir."

 

The teenager on the other side snorted, "Want to get your hands dirty? Come on, let's show you what a mid-level player can really-"

 

Before his words were out of his mouth, Luo had vanished into thin air.

 

The next instant, all he felt was a cold gust of wind blowing past his forehead, followed by his hair slowly falling down.

 

With a start, he reached up to his hair and saw that the haircut he'd had meticulously repaired by a professional barber was now a bangs short to just above his eyebrows!

 

Since the beginning he hadn't been able to get a good look at what weapon the man in black was using, and cold sweat instantly slid down his forehead, staining his newly minted floppy fringes.

 

"Excuse me, can you please be quiet?" Luo's voice rang out from behind him, and with it the feeling of something sharp against his neck.

 

The young man did not even dare to nod his head, he looked to his Brother Gu for help.

But then he saw the other man's expression die down and become serious. He felt bad at once, his experience of watching people explode, which was a clear indication that the other side was not to be messed with.

 

To avoid being thrown out as an outcast to take the piss, the teenager hurriedly said, "Sorry, sorry, it's me who can't talk ......"

 

Luo's eyes go to the man next to him.

 

"Hello, my name is Gu Jiangke." The man had lost his arrogant look and gave a smile, "It was a misunderstanding, Hu Yue doesn't know what he's doing, so I hope you'll bear with me and I'll apologise to you. I apologise to you all. For the sake of the next game we'll be playing together, how about we make it small? Of course, if you guys want to beat him up, you should do it too."

 

The look he gives Hu Yue is clearly that of a troublemaker.

 

The teenager called Hu Yue blushed a little, the man's mouth deceiving the hell out of people, this is obviously not wanting to cause trouble so just push him out of the way ah.

 

He is now regretful, very regretful. Why does he have to sour Wang Taidi when he sees that Wang Ke is not here? ......

 

Really, even more jealous of Wang Taidi! Why is he so lucky!

 

Luo looks at Wang Taidi.

 

Wang Taidi didn't want to be nosy and was prepared to say a few words to keep them out of the way and forget about it, it's not like you can actually kill people in the game, you'll still be in trouble.

 

At that moment, a rustling movement came from the darkness of the forest, interrupting the farce among the players.

 

The crowd turned their heads to see a chubby, short man walking from the forest, who also did not light a lamp, but came out of the forest at a leisurely pace as if walking at leisure.

 

It was only after walking in that the player realised the man had small eyes, a long pointed face and a slightly stooped posture, looking like a large rat.

 

Seeing the players, he flashed a smile, "Come on, follow your dad, he's taking you to visit your grandmother."

 

He finished by sticking his nose out and sniffing the air, with drool faintly pouring out of the corners of his mouth, "You're really a bunch of the luckiest kids in the world."

He looked more like a rat when he smiled and showed his large incisors, with some vague traces of black and red in his teeth.
