Chapter 145: Team Up with the World’s Number One, PK with the World’s Number Two
The system’s punishment for [Evil G.o.d Defying Heavens] was ruthless. Once the news was out, the entire game world fell silent.
“Good job!” w.a.n.g Mingtao looked at the news and clapped. “That’s how it should be. Previously, he even said that it’s because I couldn’t stand to lose that I ran away. I think this person is even more of a sore loser than me.”
Chu Luo curled her lips and said, “In the future, if you meet someone you can’t handle, tell me. I’ll help you handle it.”
w.a.n.g Mingtao was instantly touched. “Sister Chu, you’re the best. I’ll be yours from now on. I’ll serve you tea and water. If you tell me to go west, I won’t go east.”
Chu Luo gave him a disdainful look and was about to log out of his account.
At this moment, a Level 85 player named [Sun] stopped her.
w.a.n.g Mingtao looked at that player and muttered unhappily, “Don’t tell me this person wants to PK with me again?”
Chu Luo snorted. “So what if he wants a PK? Am I afraid of him?”
Chu Luo prepared to challenge this player.
But player [Sun] actually sent a friend request.
[Sun]: “Can we have a private chat?”
Chu Luo asked w.a.n.g Mingtao, “Do you want to add him?”
w.a.n.g Mingtao was a little unsure. “Sister Chu, why don’t you decide?”
Chu Luo thought for a moment. “Then let’s not add him. Why should we add someone we don’t know?”
“Okay, then no.”
Just as the two of them finished speaking, [Sun] sent another message.
[Sun]: “I know you definitely won’t add me. I’ll be frank. You’re the Empire’s crazy PK demon, right?”
When w.a.n.g Mingtao saw this, he raised his voice in surprise. “This person actually guessed that it was you, Sister Chu!”
Chu Luo was also a little surprised.
[Sun]: “I’m a smurf account too. If you don’t want to use this account to add me, then use your account. I’ve sent you a friend request.”
Chu Luo subconsciously opened her friend request column.
When he saw the name, w.a.n.g Mingtao shouted in shock, “F*ck! He’s actually the third-ranked player in the world, [Linebarrel]!”
w.a.n.g Mingtao’s shout startled the other four people wearing earphones. The four of them quickly took off their earphones and ran over to watch.
When the four of them saw the name, they exclaimed in unison, “Holy s.h.i.+t!”
Tang Zhiyun asked in confusion, “Junior, what did you do just now? How did you get to know [Linebarrel]?”
Chu Luo looked innocent. “I don’t know him.”
Xie Minghai asked, “Junior, what did you do just now that made [Linebarrel] notice you?”
w.a.n.g Mingtao helped her to reply, “Just now, Sister Chu logged into my account and helped me beat a level 95 player back to the Novice Village. Coincidentally, [Linebarrel] saw it and wanted to add Sister Chu.”
The four of them: “…” What a coincidence!
w.a.n.g Mingtao was extremely excited. “Sister Chu, Sister Chu, add [Linebarrel]. See what he will say to you.”
Xie Minghai agreed. “Junior, the operation method of [Linebarrel] is very special. Didn’t you want to challenge such a person? Add him and chat.”
The other three agreed.
Chu Luo thought for a while and added this person as a friend.
[Linebarrel] sent a message: “Let me officially introduce myself. My name is [Linebarrel].”
[Bai Ling]: “[Bai Ling].”
[Linebarrel]: “I’ve seen a few matches between you and that person just now. Your moves were seamless. I admire that.”
[Bai Ling]: “Thank you.”
[Linebarrel]: “Looks like you’re as quiet as the rumors say. In that case, let’s PK.”
[Bai Ling]: “Okay.”
System message:
[Player [Linebarrel] challenges you in a PK. Accept OR Decline.]
Chu Luo clicked Accept.
The two of them were transported to the PK arena. No one had noticed them yet.
The two of them started PKing.
The people standing behind Chu Luo watched the two of them PK and sighed from time to time.
Xie Minghai: “As expected of a fight between experts. This technique is too awesome!”
Yu Lei: “I’ve seen all of [Linebarrel]’s PK videos. I realized that his tactics are very special. His attacks aren’t too intense, but he has the ability to win every match.”
w.a.n.g Mingtao: “Even if he used to win all the time, his winning streak will end with Sister Chu. Sister Chu is the best!”
The four boys turned to look at the confident and proud w.a.n.g Mingtao and remained silent.
Just like Yu Lei had said, [Linebarrel]’s attacks weren’t intense, but every time Chu Luo attacked, he could accurately dodge and counterattack. Moreover, his counterattack didn’t seem fierce, but it could subdue enemies with every strike.
Chu Luo was famous for her ferocity in terms of her operation, so it wasn’t difficult for her to dodge [Linebarrel]’s attack.
The two of them fought back and forth for almost an hour before ending in a draw.
Chu Luo wasn’t satisfied with this outcome at all.
“To think I didn’t defeat him. No, I have to study this player properly.”
The five people who wanted to say that Chu Luo was so impressive for ending up in a draw with [Linebarrel]: “…”
‘Forget it, as long as Junior/Sister Chu is happy.’
[Linebarrel]: “You’re good at this.”
[Bai Ling]: “Thank you.”
[Bai Ling]: “Continue.”
[Linebarrel]: “(Smiley face…) Sorry, I suddenly have something on here. I’ll come online tonight. Let’s continue then.”
[Bai Ling]: “Okay.”
[Linebarrel] then went off the game.
Chu Luo muttered in dissatisfaction, “How disappointing. If I’d known, I wouldn’t have fought with this person.”
The five people who were about to speak: “…”
At this moment, a message notification popped up.
Then, a system message:
[[Y] challenges you in a PK. Accept OR Decline?]
Chu Luo was delighted and clicked Accept right away.
Then, the system teleported the two of them to a concealed room.
The five people standing behind Chu Luo: “!!!”
Holy s.h.i.+t! Who was that? Who was it they just saw? Were their eyes playing tricks on them?
“Chu Chu… Sister Chu, who was the player who PKed you?”
Chu Luo replied without looking back, “[Y]. Don’t you know the alphabet?”
w.a.n.g Mingtao: “…”
Did he not know the alphabet? He just couldn’t believe that he was seeing the legendary first-ranked player!
[Bai Ling]: “Let’s PK a few more rounds until dinnertime.”
[Y]: “Okay.”
The two of them started PKing.
The five people standing behind Chu Luo maintained a shocked expression throughout. Whenever they saw the skills that the two of them used, the word “F*ck!” would flash across their hearts from time to time.
When the five matches ended, Chu Luo lost three matches and won two.
She typed indignantly: “One more round.”
[Y]: “It’s time to eat.”
With that, he got off the game.
Chu Luo: “…”
So maddening!
Looking at the angry Chu Luo, the five of them finally regained their senses.
w.a.n.g Mingtao swallowed a mouthful of saliva and called out to her, “Sister Chu.”
Chu Luo turned around and looked at him.
“Sister Chu, you actually won two rounds against [Y].”
It would have been better if w.a.n.g Mingtao hadn’t said that. Once he did, she immediately stood up from her seat.
“Sister Chu, what are you doing?”
“I’m hungry, let’s eat!”
As Chu Luo spoke, she walked to the dining table and sat down.
w.a.n.g Mingtao said with a confused look, “What’s wrong with Sister Chu? She looks very angry.”
Tang Zhiyun guessed in a complicated tone, “It is possible that she is not satisfied with the result of the PK with [Y].”
…
The five of them looked at each other for a while and sat there silently, waiting for the housekeeper to deliver the food.
After dinner, Chu Luo was about to continue playing when her phone suddenly rang.
It was from Jin Hui.
Jin Hui told her, “Master Chu, regarding the few talismans that you asked me to sell last time, a customer gave feedback that it was especially useful. Now, a few more people want to buy your talismans. Are you willing to draw a few more?”
Chu Luo didn’t lack money now. She said, “I don’t need money for now. Let’s talk about it when I return to the country.”
On the other end, Jin Hui had no objections to her answer. “Very well. Master Chu’s talismans are very good to begin with. It’s the quality, not the quant.i.ty, that matters. There’s no need to let everyone buy it.”
As a master, she had to give off the vibes of a master.
The two of them spoke for a while more before hanging up.
After Chu Luo hung up, she suddenly wanted to go out for a walk. She said to the group, “I’ll go out for a walk this afternoon.”
Thinking that she was still sulking, they nodded in agreement.
“Sister Chu, you can go shopping at the mall. You’re a girl, so you should at least buy something here.”
Chu Luo didn’t have such awareness.
She went back to the bedroom to get something before leaving.
As she took the elevator down, someone came up from one of the floors.
This person was the young man she had met last time.
The young man was still wearing his flowery s.h.i.+rt and jeans, and he was still chewing on a lollipop.
Chu Luo looked at the lollipop in the young man’s mouth and couldn’t help but think: ‘Isn’t this person afraid his teeth would go bad if he ate lollipops like this?’
However, this had nothing to do with her. She then turned her attention to other things.
She suddenly remembered that the person who had appeared on the rooftop yesterday also had a lollipop in his mouth.
Chu Luo turned to look at the young man again, thinking, it couldn’t be such a coincidence, right?
The young man seemed to have noticed her gaze and suddenly turned to look at her.
Being caught red-handed, Chu Luo didn’t feel embarra.s.sed at all. Instead, she probed, “Aren’t you afraid that your teeth will go bad from eating so many lollipops?”
The young man’s expression froze for a moment. Then, he turned around arrogantly, as if to say that she was being nosy.
Chu Luo looked at the young man’s side profile and her eyes flashed. She quietly took out a bead from her Heaven-and-Earth pouch and held it between her fingers. She didn’t say anything else.
When the elevator reached the first floor and the door opened, Chu Luo flicked her finger and the bead hit the knee of the young man walking out of the elevator.
The young man bent his leg and staggered as he pounced forward.
