Chapter 9 The Taking

When he arrived at the supermarket, Xiao Lan headed straight for the area with the cigarettes and alcohol, trying to get them before Lin Yan did.

Suddenly, Xiao Lan’s footsteps stalled as he made his way through the shelves, feeling again as if he was being watched by something. It was different from the one he had felt in the warehouse, not as cold, but like a man’s back.

Xiao Lan looks around, the supermarket is still dilapidated and full of stale air, everything is as it should be as far as the eye can see.

Xiao Lan looked undeterred towards the shadows of the shelves, and this time there was nothing, the thick dust of the floor staying quietly in place, without the slightest trace of excess on it.

It was as if everything was just him being paranoid.

[Sir, something is spying on you]

Xiao Lan whispered, “You feel it too?”

[Yes, his presence is elusive and unpredictable]

Xiao Lan frowned, what the hell is it? Was it a danger set up by the game, or was it a means from the players? He knew so little about the game, and Luo had lost his memory, that they couldn’t get enough information to analyse it at the moment.

Suddenly, this strong sense of being spied on abruptly disappeared and the supermarket returned to that shabby, stale feeling, but with less of a sense of danger like a man’s back.

Although the situation was not good, there was no solution at the moment and Xiao Lan was alert and headed for the alcohol and tobacco area as planned.

In front of the cigarette and alcohol counter.

Xiao Lan found Mountain brand cigarettes in the most obscure of locations, the packaging design having a crude style from the late last century and carrying a sense of obsolescence abandoned by the times.

Xiao Lan had just reached out his hand when a grey shadow appeared out of nowhere, coming at him with great speed towards the cigarette case under his hand.

This is a robbery!

Xiao Lan subconsciously threw a punch that sent the thing flying.

He has worked countless part-time jobs and has spent years in various establishments, so his reactions can’t be described as quick. Especially if someone tries to snatch something from under his hand, without even having to go through his head, his body will automatically fight back and seems to have developed an instinct.

After one punch, Xiao Lan felt the thing feel soft and bouncy in his hands, and he couldn’t feel any bone at all.

Turning his head to look, the thing was the size of a man’s head with eyes and a pair of hands growing out of it, and at the moment it was crawling on the ground from a violent beating, its short hands scratching at the ground and looking a little pitiful.

“Goo ……” the thing grunted a few times before disappearing.

At the same time Xiao Lan received a system alert: “You have killed the Eye of Time.”

“What is this?” Xiao Lan was a bit confused, was this the thing that had just spied on him?

Luo’s handwriting appears as.

[The Eye of Time, a monster that can hide in the cracks of time and space, is much more stealthy than the Shadow. According to my remaining memories, these monsters are extremely fast and have a hard outer skin, and veteran players often suffer under them]

Xiao Lan touched his fist, he had just swung it casually and it didn’t feel that hard, was he really gifted?

Not far away, the sound of footsteps hitting the ground with leather shoes was heard, and Lin Yan was the only one of the four remaining people wearing leather shoes.

Lin Yan comes slowly around the corner.

“I can’t believe that you can destroy the Eye of Time.” Lin Yan said coldly, “What exactly do you have with you, it was the same thing that killed the Subterranean Shadow last time, wasn’t it?”

Xiao Lan remembered the monster with sharp claws in the warehouse, and even the first time he felt he was being watched, it turned out to be Lin Yan, who had been spying on him! It was no wonder that when Xiao Lan was on his way to find the warehouse, Lin Yan came out soon after he felt the sight.

But Lin Yan seems to think that Luo is responsible for all this.

Lin Yan laughed coldly, “I didn’t think you were just a lucky guy, but I didn’t expect you to cost me two props.”

He glanced at Xiao Lan’s side, “What exactly have you acquired? Give it to me and perhaps I will consider taking you through.”

Xiao Lan almost rolled his eyes, “Anyone who believed that must be cold by now.”

Lin Yan’s face sank at his words, “I’ll give you one last chance to be sensible, you can’t even imagine what the old players can do.”

Even if Xiao Lan didn’t know about the betrayer, he wouldn’t believe Lin Yan’s story at all.

Seeing the look on Lin Yan’s face, Xiao Lan knew that this time he was going to do it straight away.

He looked at the paper cigarette case next to him and gave up on the idea of putting it on his person for the time being; if he did it he would certainly damage the packaging and the boss would not accept it then, I’m afraid.

Seeing Xiao Lan’s reluctance to take the bait, Lin Yan looked stern and attacked her directly.

He was so fast that he was in front of Xiao Lan in almost an instant, his lightning-fast fist coming straight at his head.

Xiao Lan is no slouch either. She fights hooligans and kicks drunks, and usually has to deal with a few muggers on her way out of work at night. He dodged Lin Yan’s attack with a slight deflection of his body.

Lin Yan missed and came after him again, this time aiming for Xiao Lan’s chest.

[Sir, he’s about 2.75 times faster than an average human]

Seeing Luo’s message, Xiao Lan knows what to expect and raises his hand to stop Lin Yan’s fist, taking advantage of the momentary lull to lift his leg and kick him in the stomach, knocking him straight into a nearby shelf.

At the moment, both sides are a little surprised.

Lin Yan’s surprise lay in Xiao Lan’s ability to capture his speed, and the force of that kick, which now left him with a vague pain in his gut.

Xiao Lan was surprised that Lin Yan’s stomach felt stronger than the Eye of Time’s. He was now strong enough to punch the Eye of Time, but Lin Yan only spat out blood.

Is this guy more than just cheeky?

Xiao Lan’s mind was made up as the older players were not to be underestimated.

The two men were confronting each other when suddenly there was the sound of something hard being kicked behind them.

Xiao Lan thought no good, he looked around him, he and Lin Yan had moved away from the direction of the liquor and tobacco counter during the fight, there was also a row of shelves blocking Xiao Lan’s view of the liquor and tobacco counter.

Xiao Lan was wary of Lin Yan and stepped back, but Lin Yan stood still and did not move forward.

The flowery-armed punk is now tucking his Mountain cigarettes into his trouser pocket, and when he sees Xiao Lan approaching, he stops with a frown.

Xiao Lan : “Did you join forces with Lin Yan?”

The flower-armed punk forced himself to stay calm: “It’s just …… this one time.”

Xiao Lan didn’t know whether to compliment him on his boldness or call him stupid: “You saw what happened to the others who followed him.”

The flower-armed punk stuck his neck out and said, “He told me all about it, he just wanted to screw you, he had his own stuff picked out a long time ago, this is for me. If you want to blame it, blame it on your own bad luck, whoever you want to mess with has to mess with him!”

Saying that he seemed to have found theoretical support, he tucked the cigarette directly into his pocket, “What the old man has in his hand is mine!”

Xiao Lan wants to shove this idiot’s head down the toilet, how simple a brain structure does one have to be to believe such nonsense.

Lin Yan also came over and smiled smugly at Xiao Lan, “What happens when you go against me?”

With that he raised his hand to greet the flower-armed punk, and the two men formed a pincer movement against Xiao Lan.

Lin Yan said, “Hand over the items you obtained in the hidden quest!”

Xiao Lan looked at the two men surrounding him, one Lin Yan was already difficult to fight, and with the addition of a flower-armed punk, it would be difficult to get out of the situation unless he used his skills now.

But he only has five minutes of skill!

What the hell is the same as a trial version, handsome a five minutes after what to do oh. The rest of the 23 hours and 55 minutes are all about the brother!

In the nick of time, Luo’s handwriting appears quickly, even if a little scrawled because it is so fast.

[Please follow my instructions, sir]

[I can hold them off for you for three seconds]

[Run!

An arrow appeared on the ground and Xiao Lan ran with all his might in the direction it was pointing.

Lin Yan and the flower-armed punk saw this and tried to chase after them, but the thick black shadow blended into their shadows at some point, after which the shadows seemed to stick to the ground, imprisoning them in place.

The two men were startled to find themselves unable to move, and they struggled in place to try to escape this control of unknown origin.

Xiao Lan’s arrows guided him around the shelves and over the counters, taking shortcuts to get away from the supermarket area, and ripping up some shelves to create obstacles in his way. There’s no way to ignore the system’s prompts to break the scene, and if these two guys lock him up, he’ll be out of luck when the time comes.

He then jumped out of the window into the corridor and, guided by Luo, found a nondescript stairwell with miscellaneous items, where Xiao Lan ducked inside and closed the door from the inside.

A short time later, Lin Yan and the armchair gangster ran down the corridor.

They began to search carefully from room to room in the corridor.

In the utility room on the other side of the corridor, Xiao Lan breathed a sigh of relief as he said softly, ” Luo , thank you.”

Luo’s handwriting is much lighter than before.

[Everything for your safety]

Xiao Lan immediately noticed Luo’s strange behaviour: “What’s wrong with you?”

[Thank you for your care, it’s just a case of overexertion of strength]

Xiao Lan was a little concerned: “Is this going to affect you much?”

I’m sorry, but I may not be able to provide you with appropriate assistance for some time.

“That’s not the point.” Xiao Lan’s tone became serious, “The important thing is what it will take for you to recover.”

Luo’s handwriting pauses for a moment, then continues briskly.

I’m very pleased with your interest, sir.

[All you need to do is carry me through and I can recover and even draw more power into my body to be by your side]

This surprised Xiao Lan, who had thought that a non-human like Luo had evolved in such an unnameable direction as black shadow – black paste.

[To help you, it is easier to take a human form]

I look forward to the day when I can stand by your side

Xiao Lan said solemnly, “I’ll get you through this game, I promise.”

So you don’t have to prove your worth by overspending yourself in this way.

The author has something to say.

Xiao Lan : Is it possible that I’m evolving into a one-punch superhero?

Luo : Is your hair still intact?

Xiao Lan : …… you go.
