The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human? Chapter 812 - 552: Wipe Your Nosebleed Before Acting Cool (P
Niu Ma snorted coldly.
With the Bronze Bull Head in hand, if he could get the Tiger Soul as well, he might not be able to crush Oynk, but he certainly could thrash White Feather Chicken and Britain without any issue.
"Does every big shot have these elusive parts they can never fully gather?"
Liu Zheng couldn’t help but sigh.
"Isn’t that obvious? Living long enough and being strong enough, you end up collecting so peculiar stuff. We herbivores already have a low collection compulsion, and you carnivores would try to build a whole skeleton from a single bone,"
Niu Ma ridiculed.
"Technically speaking, I’m an omnivore?"
He corrected.
Besides, Niu Ma is hardly a herbivore, considering he enjoys at even more.
"What does being able to cultivate the Path of Slaughter an?"
Liu Zheng asked again.
"Didn’t you just suffer a loss?"
Niu Ma replied.
"This blade’s material is inherently malevolent, and its owner is a peerless Killer God, so it contains extrely pure murderous aura. If you know how to use this ferocious weapon to cultivate the Path of Slaughter and can bear the burden, your cultivation will advance by leaps and bounds."
"So impressive, then why haven’t you used it, boss?"
"By the ti I got this thing, I was already quite powerful. Just a fragnt of a blade couldn’t yield anything significant, so it was wasted. If I happen to gather all the fragnts in the end but can’t assemble the Tiger Soul because of this wasted piece, that would truly be a loss both for manpower and property,"
Niu Ma snorted.
"Is that saying used correctly?"
He looked puzzled.
Forget it, one shouldn’t expect too much from Niu Ma’s second-hand idioms.
"Can I use it then?"
Liu Zheng was sowhat hopeful.
With his current strength, he shouldn’t be able to damage the Tiger Soul fragnts much, right?
"You can use it."
"Then can you teach how to use it, boss?"
Liu Zheng shalessly asked.
"I can’t teach you. I don’t know how myself,"
Niu Ma shook his head.
"Then why did you say you could waste the Tiger Soul fragnts just now?"
"When I said ’could’, I ant I personally could. When I said ’couldn’t’, I ant I don’t know how. It’s like you asking how to break a steel plate; I can only tell you to kick it hard with a hoof. I might explain it to you, but did you learn it?"
Niu Ma explained, not forgetting to mock him in the process.
"Alright."
Liu Zheng sighed.
Now it seed that whether he wanted to resolve the murderous aura seal on him or use the Tiger Soul fragnts to cultivate the Path of Slaughter, he had to complete Samurai Yifa’s commission first to get the whereabouts of that enigmatic swordsmith.
Hmm, next ti he should ask the Tomb Guardian at the cetery, last ti there were too many things, and he forgot all about it.
Liu Zheng actually didn’t believe he could gather all the Tiger Soul fragnts, so using them to enhance his strength seed much more practical.
What? You said the Tiger Soul fragnts are Niu Ma’s, not his?
Based on Liu Zheng’s understanding of Niu Ma, anything it was willing to bring out wasn’t free.
"By the way, boss, now that I have the owner’s task on , can I leave the dining establishnt even without a job?"
Liu Zheng had a brainwave.
"In theory, yes. But with your skills, if you leave the establishnt at night without a job, I’m afraid you wouldn’t even make it out of this street,"
Niu Ma said.
"Isn’t that why I have you, boss?"
He said with a cheeky grin.
"You want to be your bodyguard while using my stuff? Dream on."
Niu Ma didn’t even bother to find an excuse to refuse.
"This is the owner’s private task; if you help out, you can score so brownie points. After all, you’ll be doing business with the dining establishnt in the future."
"Moreover, this kind of auction is rare. If there’s sothing you fancy at the ti, I can also help you bid for it."
Liu Zheng coaxed.
"Hmm..."
Hearing this, Niu Ma pondered.
"I’ll give you a 10,000 reward on top."
He brought out the final straw that broke the cal’s back.
"Damn it, now I don’t even know if I’m working for the dining establishnt or for you."
Despite saying this, Niu Ma still stood up.
"Co on, let’s hurry; I still need to co back and sleep to nourish my energy."
It clamored.
"What on earth is nourishing energy?"
"You an Nile River didn’t tell you? Sufficient sleep is crucial for ensuring sperm vitality."
Niu Ma said.
"No."
Liu Zheng squinted in disbelief.
Why would Doctor Nile tell him this—even if he did marry Sasha, mummies can’t have children.
Otherwise, Doctor Nile would have propagated his species long ago. Even if he didn’t want to, God Ra would have forced him to expand the tribe.
"Hmph, seems like you’re not as popular as you think,"
Niu Ma felt like it had regained so ground and flashed a smug smile.
"Yes, yes, how could I compare with you, boss."
Liu Zheng humored him while dialing Guo Koutangzi.
Now that I can leave the restaurant directly with Niu Ma as my bodyguard, there’s no need to order takeout. I can save that for next ti.
After finishing the call, he and Niu Ma left the lounge and walked into the takeout corridor.
"Huh? Why does the takeout corridor seem shorter?"
Niu Ma voiced the sa question as Liu Zheng.
"Oh, I helped it with sothing, so we’re on good terms now."
He explained.
"...You even ssed with a corridor. Next ti, don’t tell the lounge has beco your harem too?"
Niu Ma exclaid as if he had seen a ghost.
"Probably not."
Liu Zheng replied, not very confidently.
Speaking of which, he too didn’t quite know what was up with the takeout corridor.
Was it part of the restaurant? Or an independent entity?
"I think it’s hard to say, you really are sothing else."
Niu Ma looked at him with a hint of fear in his eyes, though it was unclear what he was afraid of.
Once out of the corridor, the sky had already darkened, with the blood moon hanging obliquely high in the sky, like a basin filled with fresh blood.
"Why does it feel like it’s always a full moon?"
Liu Zheng asked while looking at the blood moon.
"Have you seen it any other way?"
Niu Ma countered.
"Uh, no, I haven’t."
He replied honestly,
after all, he’d only seen the blood moon these past few days.
"Then why are you asking?"
Niu Ma rolled his eyes,
"The moon I saw outside was incomplete, like it has been bitten."
Liu Zheng gestured,
"Really? What color was it?"
Niu Ma asked curiously.
"Pale."
"That should be pretty. Anyway, our moon has always been like this, only its position changes, the appearance remains basically the sa. Hmm, but who knows."
Niu Ma seed to have thought of sothing.
"What is it?"
This ti it was his turn to be curious.
"Such curiosity, do you want to be an adventurer? Be careful, the more you know, the quicker you die."
"Co on, I already know plenty of secrets, one more won’t hurt."
Liu Zheng expressed indifference.
"I care!"
Niu Ma glared.
"Fine, if you’re not going to tell, why get worked up?"
He pouted.
"It’s your fault for getting on my nerves. Get moving, you’re not afraid of the dark, but I am."
Niu Ma gave Liu Zheng a light kick on the butt.
The two first arrived at the clinic, only to find not only the doors were tightly shut but even the Sphinx wasn’t guarding outside.
"Could sothing have happened?"
Both were taken aback.
"Doctor, doctor, are you ho?"
Liu Zheng imdiately stepped forward and knocked on the door.
"Liu Zheng?"
A mont later, Doctor Nile’s voice ca from inside.
"It’s ."
He breathed a sigh of relief and quickly replied.
"What are you doing here so late?"
Doctor Nile asked sowhat puzzled.
"The auction has been moved to tonight, and I also took on an extra task, so I want to borrow so Extraordinary Items from you. Also, I accepted a fire-searching job from the Tomb Guardian, so I need your help too."
"Oh, and my buddy Niu Ma is with too."
Liu Zheng said.
"Wait a mont."
After listening to him, Doctor Nile did not open the door imdiately.
Even though most of his words checked out, there were too many strange things lurking around at night, so Doctor Nile couldn’t be too careful.
"Don’t move around later, as long as you an no harm, it won’t hurt you."
Doctor Nile instructed.
"Alright."
Liu Zheng nodded, and Niu Ma had no objections.
Soon, a scorching light bead out from the peephole.
This light first shone on Liu Zheng, then passed through his body without any hindrance.
Then the light shone on Niu Ma, again with no anomalies.
"Co in."
After the inspection, Doctor Nile opened the doors and welcod them into the clinic.
