Poverty makes me capable of anything.

She had nothing left, except for the things she was carrying and the things still in the hotel room.

That's hundreds of thousands of pesos!

The joy of surviving the ordeal was instantly overshadowed.

"Anran, Anran, are you alright? You look terrible."

"Boom!"

Suddenly, gunshots and explosions rang out from the lakeside. An Ran turned her head and saw a large group of people emerging from the lake, seemingly engaged in an extremely fierce battle.

what happened?

Does this mean that the people of Morningstar and the government forces are still fighting?

“Let’s go take a look,” An Ran said.

“Mm.” Ella nodded.

She couldn't move at all in the water, and besides, with An Ran holding her, she was overwhelmed with happiness and didn't want to think about anything else.

Anran led Ella a little closer to the shore, where they could faintly hear shouts coming from the other side.

"Kill those bastards who killed Morning Star, to avenge Anran."

"That adds up to at least four or five hundred thousand experience points, so we absolutely must not let him go."

"Bang bang."

"Move aside, let me do it!"

"Ha, I hit Wang Guyan."

"Damn it, these strangers have gone mad."

"Leader, hurry up, I'll cover the rear."

"These insects from another world deserve to die!"

"Boom!"

"..."

An Ran was a little confused. The Morning Star Clan, who had achieved their goal, was being relentlessly chased by angry players. What kind of crazy move was this?

She heard some people shouting that they wanted to avenge her, while others said they wanted to complete a mission; in short, the scene was in complete chaos.

Meanwhile, the person who appeared to be Morning Star was being chased straight towards the lake, and as they ran, someone jumped into the lake.

"The experts from Jiuge have arrived. Everyone, quickly hold them back and prevent them from jumping into the water."

"Boom—"

A bomb exploded underwater.

An Ran was immediately pushed away by the surging water.

One by one, people jumped into the water like dumplings being dropped into a pot; there were people from Morning Star, and many players with words above their heads.

"Bang bang..."

Stray bullets flew by every now and then.

This place is very unsafe. Anran led Ella to dive underwater, but she did not choose to run away. Instead, she chased after Morning Star's people. With such a great opportunity, she would not be satisfied if she did not kill this group of people.

Anran noticed that the people at Morning Star seemed to have a specific purpose in mind; as soon as they jumped into the water, they all swam in the same direction.

An Ran, who was chasing behind, soon discovered that they had arrived near a rock at the bottom of the lake.

Because they were going in the opposite direction, An Ran wasn't stopped, but the players weren't so lucky; they were all entangled by the people covering their retreat.

An Ran watched as those people disappeared one by one near the rocks.

They had indeed prepared a backup plan, but I never expected them to dig a hole at the bottom of the lake.

As the last person swam to the vicinity of the rocks, An Ran quickly darted over. Ella lay prone on the rocks, while An Ran grabbed the person's neck, twisting it left and right, and after a few twists, the health bar was empty.

"You killed Night Owl's low-level liaison and gained 16700 Free Experience."

"..."

An Ran was slightly taken aback.

So she just killed an "alien".

The owl's liaison, ha.

Upon seeing the cave entrance ahead, Anran immediately pulled Ella along to continue forward.

She figured that the people in Morning Star weren't aquatic either, and they probably couldn't hold their breath as long as she could. There must be something fishy going on inside. Sure enough, she saw oxygen tanks as soon as she went in.

The cave was dark, and An Ran could sense someone swimming not far ahead, but she couldn't see clearly. In addition, the cave was very narrow, and with Ella by her side, she couldn't make any extra movements. An Ran was originally very fast, but with Ella, she couldn't go any faster.

After swimming forward for about 5 minutes, I slowly rose upwards, and when I saw the light, I knew I was about to reach the end.

But not understanding the situation, she didn't rush to surface. Instead, she lingered underwater for a while before emerging. By then, Morning Star was no longer visible outside; only one road led into the distance.

"Close the door quickly."

A sound came from inside.

"Chief, there are more behind..."

"Close the door if you don't want to die!"

"Yes."

That voice was definitely Dawn's voice.

An Ran raised her eyebrows slightly.

"Hahaha, this door is made of metal from your Night Owls. Even a large amount of explosives wouldn't be able to break through it in a short time," Dawn laughed.

"..."

"Dawn, don't delay..."

The sounds behind were drowned out by the sound of the door closing.

Water dripped down their bodies as Anran and Ella stood beside the pool.

“Anran?” Ella looked up at Anran.

An Ran tidied up the remaining weapons on her body, and then said to Ella, "Let's go take a look."

They soon arrived at the gate that Dawn had mentioned. The dark, heavy metal gate stood there, and its somewhat rough appearance made it look like it wouldn't be easy to deal with.

"when--"

The Crimson Blade slashed at the door, but the result was unexpected. Not only was the blade bounced back, but there wasn't even a scratch on the door.

Holy crap, is it really that hard?

What can we do then...?

"Anran, Anran, why don't you let me try?" Ella suddenly tugged at Anran's sleeve.

Emmm...

“Okay.” An Ran consciously made way for Ella.

Ella walked to the front door, raised her hands, and slowly placed them on the door.

"Hiss hiss hiss—"

Anran heard a faint crackling sound, though she wasn't sure if it was just her imagination.

She soon witnessed an astonishing scene: Ella's arm skin rapidly changed color, turning into a dazzling silver-white, like—no, like some kind of metal.

Immediately afterwards, the sturdy metal door that Dawn had mentioned, which he had gotten from the Night Owl, began to deform under Ella's pressure.

"Clang—"

A piece of black metal was broken off and then Ella bit into it.

"Clang—"

Another piece of black metal was broken off.

"..."

"when."

The crimson blade slashed upwards, and as expected, An Ran was bounced back again.

Good, very competitive.

Chapter 68 Two Bullets

An Ran stared blankly at Ella, who was eating the door.

The best metal she could offer was ligne, but the crimson blade forged from ligne couldn't even leave a scratch on the dark door, demonstrating the metal's hardness.

An Ran tried to imitate Ella and break off a piece of metal from the door, but it took her a lot of effort to bend the metal. It would take even more time to break it.

Ella, who had just finished eating, looked at An Ran's actions with a blank expression, and then said, "An Ran, let me help you."

A silver-white hand pressed down on the metal that An Ran was holding, and only for about two seconds. With a "crack" sound, An Ran found that she had broken the metal off.

"..."

Good heavens.

It's infuriating how humans are compared to robots.

An Ran took the piece of metal in front of her and examined it. It was a piece of metal that had been pulled off near the edge of the door. From a distance, it looked like a lump of black gold with a mysterious luster. But up close, it seemed a bit rough. The surface was not very smooth and there were no patterns engraved on it. It seemed that Dawn and the others had only done the simplest treatment.

"Here!" An Ran handed the metal to Ella; she had no way of analyzing this kind of thing.

"Don't you want Anran anymore?" Ella asked.

An Ran shook her head.

Ella understood and swallowed the metal in a few bites.

Watching her deftly nibble away at the pieces, it looked like she was gnawing on a chicken leg.
