Seeing the man standing there in a daze, Ning Fan couldn't help but scold, "What are you standing there for? Hand over the money quickly."
Encountering such a baffling robber, even he was a bit dumbfounded.
"If I had money, I wouldn't be out here robbing."
The man pulled a bitter smile and flipped open his pockets, then took out a wallet and opened it.
"This really is my first robbery."
Looking at the driver's license tucked inside the wallet, Ning Fan confird his earlier suspicion.
Who goes out robbing and brings their ID along?
Arica doesn't have a household registration system; a personal driver's license serves as identification.
"See, I really don't have any money."
The man said, still visibly shaken, "Otherwise, I wouldn't…"
"Cut the crap, isn't there ten dollars here?"
Ning Fan pursed his lips, his eyes fixed on that crumpled greenback.
"You want even the ten dollars."
The man froze entirely, then exclaid in terror, "No, you can't do that; it's my living expenses for tomorrow."
Just then, a chuckle ca from behind.
This comical scene was too much for Mary to hold back her laughter.
Ning Fan's face darkened; he was stuck, unable to advance or retreat.
Clearly, he was the victim, but stumbling upon such a clownish figure, his role was completely flipped.
Robbing ten dollars for living expenses; if this got out, wouldn't it be utterly humiliating?
"Really damn frustrating."
Just as Ning Fan turned to leave, rapid footsteps were heard behind him.
"Don't be so naive…"
Seeing the man hadn't picked up the gun on the ground, Ning Fan swallowed his words.
"Here, take this."
The man handed over his last ten dollars,
Even though he'd seen all sorts of bizarre people, such a bizarre person, Ning Fan was eting for the first ti, "What do you want?"
He was just demanding money at all costs, and now he's offering it willingly.
"Nothing. Just feel you need it more than I do."
The man glanced at the three of them, stuffed the money into Ning Fan's hand, and then ran away.
"What the heck was that!"
A bewildered Ning Fan watched as the man ran further and further away.
Mary suppressed her laughter and blurted out, "Though it's only ten dollars, the plan can be considered successful."
Ning Fan was black-faced and holding out, "Didn't you say it's very safe just now? Now there's ard robbery appearing out of nowhere."
Mary chuckled softly, "That man must be a gambler who lost it all."
Ning Fan fell silent.
That was indeed the case, judging by the man's earlier performance, it was definitely his first ti doing such a thing.
And this place is the fad Gambling City, the man's identity was imdiately revealed.
"Where are we going now?"
Vivian looked puzzled at the green little piece of paper in Ning Fan's hand, and then two sentences flashed across her mind.
"Is this the Gold Coin of the Origin World?"
"Doesn't seem very valuable."
Identifying the wealth of this world is indeed a very important matter for the Dragon Clan,
Mary covered her mouth and laughed, "Ten dollars. We can each have a donut."
"All you think about is eating, don't you have any aspirations?"
Ning Fan grumbled with a blackened face; today's plan was quite a failure.
If it weren't to set an example for Vivian, it wouldn't be such a hassle.
Just like that bald guy earlier, he could've easily dragged the other into the alley for a friendly chat.
I believe the other was thinking the sa.
"Let's go to the casino."
Ning Fan's intent was obvious with that sentence; Mary's eyes flashed with curiosity, it seed she hadn't been to such a place either in life or after death.
"Casino?"
"It's a kind of spinach entertainnt."
Mary explained, but she clearly misunderstood Vivian's aning.
In Middle Earth, or the Divine Realm, there's the word "gamble," Vivian is not at all unfamiliar with gambling.
Thinking of those substantial gambling bets, Vivian got a bit excited, "Are we going to rob the casino?"
First, shedding blood everywhere, bones piled on the ground, in a sky full of fire, and then leaving with treasure riding the wind…
Ning Fan gave Vivian a doubtful look, "Is this dragon's main job a robber? Why is she so obsessed with robbery?"
If Ning Fan knew the many titles of the Dragon Clan, he would understand Vivian's thoughts.
"Wealth Plunderer," "Treasure Guardian," "Gold Coin Thief"…
These nurous titles fully prove the Dragon Clan's obsession with wealth.
"Rob your head."
Ning Fan flicked a knuckle on her head.
The sound was crisp and bright, the texture fine and smooth, it made him sowhat reluctant to stop, so he couldn't resist flicking again.
Ning Fan righteously said, "We're going to earn money through legitimate ans. Ill-gotten gains are not to be pursued."
"What about just now?"
As she spoke, Vivian looked at the crumpled ten-dollar bill in Ning Fan's hand.
"Uh…this doesn't count as ill-gotten gains."
Seeing Vivian nodding thoughtfully, Ning Fan reminded her, "You don't need to worry about money, you won't starve."
"Vivian, let's go."
Mary smiled as she pulled Vivian away, saving Ning Fan from further embarrassnt.
Strolling down the brightly lit streets, Vivian felt as though her eyes weren't enough.
These shiny neon signs, though re "waste" without magic power.
But to the Dragon Clan, a visually stimulating species, as long as the light is bright enough, it's sufficient.
"If only these things belonged to ."
Stealing a glance at Ning Fan beside her, Vivian had to abandon the bold idea in her heart.
Then she turned her attention to the pedestrians, more precisely the jewelry and Jade Artifacts on the won.
"These 'bugs' have so much jewelry; aren't they afraid of being robbed?"
In Vivian's view, the wealth possessed by these non-magical "wastes" is a sin in itself.
If it were Middle Earth, these won would have been stripped clean and plundered long ago.
"Let's go steal a load; a ninety-one split, I take ninety, you take one."
Vivian wanted to share her generosity with Ning Fan, but considering the consequences of saying this, she had to hold her words back.
"A bunch of bugs, that's all. Isn't it natural for the weak to worship the strong?"
Vivian felt really stifled; for her, accepting the offering from bugs was entirely giving face to the bugs, unlike now, where she could only watch these walking treasures.
"Luckily there are constraints, otherwise this Evil Dragon would cause all sorts of havoc."
Keeping an eye on Vivian's envious gaze, Ning Fan felt a chill but also so relief.
"Vivian, when I win money later, I'll buy it for you."
Ning Fan hurriedly made a promise; if this keeps up, this Evil Dragon might revert to her old ways.
"Okay!"
Vivian absentmindedly responded, her eyes still wandering over the jewelry.
"Vivian, do you really like diamonds?"
