Lucky billion players, you've never seen one before / I can accumulate my own luck

Hotel service... With that thought in mind, he went over and opened the door.

Fan Xiao appeared in his field of vision, grinning at him and saying, "'Wine and women are bad for your health, I'm quitting drinking starting today'... That's you, right?"

"……Who are you?"

Liao Sa suddenly revealed a wary look in his eyes.

I've been doxxed... How is that possible?!

Aside from his dead, foul-mouthed brother, he had never told a third person his personal information!

"Oh, right, you don't recognize this face of mine. Don't worry, I'll change it back right away."

As Fan Xiao laughed, he transformed back into the same form and appearance he had used during the battle in Lach City: "Do we recognize each other now?"

"...!?"

Thump... Liao Sa knelt down.

Chapter 576 Two-way love

G02 node.

Partition 022.

Heywood anxiously visited Abudu's secret base—a safe house concealed by several B-grade items.

Ignoring the wary and guarded players, Haywood went straight to Abudu's room and barged in abruptly without knocking.

"Don't tell me you ran into that pervert on the way and were forced to run back."

Abudu looked at his anxious friend and asked with slight surprise, "What's wrong? Aren't you going to the outer node to lay low?"

"If I really run into that guy, I'm not sure I can escape!" Haywood said seriously. "Unless we have an A-grade spatial teleportation device, otherwise... a simple B-grade containment device can disable our escape methods. You've seen the range of that guy's attacks; are you confident you can escape?"

"A simple Grade B containment device..."

Abudu curled his lip and said, "You make it sound so easy! Do you know how long it took me to search for this kind of item? Do you think spatial sealing items are something you can just get whenever you want? They're much rarer than spatial teleportation items!"

“I’m not here to argue about this,” Haywood said, getting straight to the point. “Have you seen the latest post on the G02 node Mammon forum?”

“Relax, Haywood,” Abudu said casually. “I admit that guy is a bit freakish! In terms of attack power alone, we can’t compare to him, but… have you forgotten how big the Evolution Game is? We’ve come all the way to this remote place, this isn’t even a fusion zone, with so many zones separating us, how could he possibly find us?”

“In fact,” Heywood took a deep breath and said, “he can find it!”

"...What do you mean?" Abudu asked doubtfully, "Even an A-grade item can't be used to find someone across zones...Okay, I admit that's a bit of an overstatement, but an A-grade item that can lock onto a target across zones is obviously rare. Do you think...he could possibly possess it?"

"Stop talking nonsense! Just look at the forum!" Haywood said impatiently. "His strength has already surpassed our common sense. You're still stubbornly clinging to your own opinion. Do you really not know what death means?"

"..."

Abudu silently took out the Key of Mammon and entered his consciousness into the network panel.

The debt collection post published by "Young Fan Zunshizhongdao" was still at the top of the trending list. He frowned, glanced down, and soon his expression couldn't hold back anymore.

"How is this possible?! How did he do that?!"

Abudu spoke in an almost growling voice.

Below the debt collection post, several apology posts from Mammon members were pushed to the top. As the names suggest, these posts were all apologies to "Young Fan Zunshi Zhongdao" (a pseudonym), and the tone was quite humble, with words full of flattery. They all vowed never to speak recklessly on the Mammon network again.

These individuals also shared their locations in their posts—they were in different sections.

With a little deeper thought, one can understand the intention behind this "location sharing".

"Young people should respect their teachers and value morality"... It seems like you can punish people even through the internet!

Those guys who posted that message have most likely been dealt with by the authorities.

"Could it be that guy hired someone to scam us?" Abudu frowned. "He's using this method to put psychological pressure on us, urging us to give in and pay up as soon as possible?"

“I did some research, and the guys who posted those messages are all veteran members.” Haywood shook his head. “They’ve been active on the G02 node forum for a long time.”

"You don't necessarily have to use a newbie account to lie!" Abudu retorted, "As long as the money is right, even veteran members can be bribed!"

"No, you are overthinking."

Haywood shook his head again: "According to my investigation, these guys are the kind of people who are fearless. Over the years, they have made a lot of noise about our node's A-level players on the forums."

“Even the strongest ‘001’ is often dragged out by them to insult and ridicule him, and even falsely accused of beating Juan… Hmm, these bastards want to use ‘001’ to get rid of Juan.”

"Do you think the other A-level players haven't tried to bribe them with money to stop them from causing trouble? And when have they ever been quiet?"

At this point, he shook his head: "As long as there's a possibility that guy can find people through the internet, no amount of self-comfort will help us. Even if you convince me, so what? Do you dare continue to ignore this matter?"

“…” Abudu sighed: “It’s not that I’m stingy with the 1 billion, it’s just that I feel… it would be a bit embarrassing to actually give the money!”

"From the moment we ran away, we had already lost all face."

Heywood sighed, "And look at those bastards in the Mammon Network, how many of them are truly afraid of A-level players?"

"Damn it... these guys are two-faced!"

"This shows that other non-Mammon members generally treat us the same way. Perhaps... we never had any sense of face from the beginning."

"...Why do you seem to have become much more open-minded after being scared like that?" Abudu's tone was subtle.

"Flowers and applause are dazzling..."

Heywood sighed softly, "Those bastards on the Mammon Forum are right. We really are just cowards who only dare to be mountain kings in some remote corner. I... haven't done an A-rank dungeon in a long time, and my tickets are practically moldy."

"..."

After a few seconds of silence, Abudu said, "I know where Koren and Singh are."

"That's why I came to find you."

Heywood nodded: "The sooner we find them, the sooner we tell them the situation, the sooner we gather the money and transfer it to that guy, the safer we'll be."

"That guy's appearance is a wake-up call for us—a backward node will eventually become a leading node. Powerful guys will appear one after another, and we old guys may not be able to be arrogant for many more years."

"..." Abudu said with a pained expression, "10 billion..."

"Didn't you say you wouldn't be stingy with 10 billion?"

"I was just showing off."

"..."

……

Six days have passed since the Battle of Lach.

At nine o'clock in the morning, a large number of players and ordinary people gathered in the northern district of Lah City—they came to witness the spectacular bloodbath left behind by the big shots.

After that battle, the battlefield in the North District was cordoned off by the government, and defensive fortifications were quickly built around it using props, completely surrounding the ravaged battlefield, including the mutated blood sea, and transforming it into a 5A-level scenic area.

Then, the government started selling tickets.

In the past few days, many players have come to Lah City because of its reputation, and the city's officials have made a lot of money from ticket sales.

However, today was slightly different from usual—the gathered crowd became disorderly.

Because... the sea of ​​blood suddenly disappeared!

At this moment, on the outskirts of the scenic area where no one paid any attention, two figures draped in blood-red shawls silently left the North District.

It was Fan Xiao and Lu Baizhi.

The two walked toward the area in Lach City where the relocation convoys were being housed.

They talked as they walked.

"I didn't expect the government departments in Lach City... to be so business-minded." Lu Baizhi said with a slightly subtle look in her eyes, "They even came up with the idea of ​​setting up battlefields and selling tickets."

To be honest, she was a little impressed.

How thick-skinned do they have to be?

"Hmm..." Fan Xiao said thoughtfully, "I think I should charge them a patent fee?"

Lu Baizhi: "..."

“Just kidding,” Fan Xiao laughed. “Their approach has given me a lot of inspiration. Wealth is hidden everywhere; it just depends on whether you have a greedy sense for it.”

I never imagined that a battlefield could be used in so many creative ways.

Should we talk to some A-level players and put on a show together, having small battles every three days and big battles every five days, creating more battlefields to make money... Although he didn't intend to do that, Fan Xiao's brain still got active, and he came up with a lot of insidious ways to fleece people.

Speaking of which... Fairy Tale Town wasn't exorbitant enough!

We'll have to make some serious changes when the dungeon is upgraded next time.

Six days have passed, and both he and Bai Zhi have almost fully recovered their spiritual essence and their spiritual power is now overflowing.

After his combat power returned, Fan Xiao began to swell with arrogance—for example, he immediately went to retrieve the blood sea that had been left behind, and reshaped and compressed it into a blood-red shawl.

Yes, for the past six days, even though he was right next to the Blood Sea, he never once considered taking it back.

Who knows if there are any new A-level players lurking here fishing?

He was indeed very arrogant, but at the same time, he was also very cunning.

These two are not contradictory.

"Fan Xiao, do you think... those four escaped A-level players will obediently pay up?"

Lu Baizhi suddenly remembered that the "repayment deadline" was approaching, and couldn't help but remind Fan Xiao.

Fan Xiao didn't answer the question directly, but instead said, "After I say goodbye to the villagers who came from Hongbai Village, there's nothing else for us to do in this district."

Not long ago, he had Lu Baizhi confirm one thing through luck—there would be no A-level dungeon items appearing during the subsequent fusion of the 011 partition and dimensions.

He wasn't entirely sure whether the prediction made by tossing a coin had a 100% chance of coming true.

Regardless of the outcome, he has no intention of waiting any longer.

There are still a lot of things waiting for him to handle at the G08 node.

Lu Baizhi understood the underlying meaning in Fan Xiao's words: "Should we take the initiative to go find them?"

“We must uphold the fine virtue of honesty and trustworthiness,” Van Shaw said. “I’ve already made it clear on the Mammon Forum that if they dare not pay back their debts…”

He smiled slightly and said, "Then I'll have to keep my promise and kill them all... and deal with them. With you here, Gardenia, inheriting their A-grade items won't be difficult. These things are worth much more than 10 billion game coins."

Since they established their relationship, he no longer pretended at all in front of Lu Baizhi.

Lu Baizhi didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

Those who kill will always be killed.

Those four guys who escaped, since they chose to take action, should be prepared to be killed in return... Fan Xiao's willingness to accept money and let the matter drop is a great act of kindness.

Hopefully, those four people won't be ungrateful... Well, after establishing a relationship, she started to completely side with Fan Xiao.

……

Lach City.

Resettlement area for immigrants.

After You Guo returned with Xiao Tian and Xu Xuan, he immediately found Tanya and the others.

Since separating from Fan Xiao, they have stayed in this resettlement area to help take care of the resettlement of the villagers of Bai Village.

Six days later, everything was more or less settled.

Tanya stopped talking with her two best friends and turned her gaze to You Guo, who had come to visit, and asked, "How did it go?"

"We've confirmed four new dungeons and got the tickets," You Guo said with a smile. "Now we just need to wait for Brother Fan to return, and after we've finished reporting to him, we can go into the dungeons."

"Where's Owen? You all went out together, where is he?"

Su, who was next to Tanya, asked.

"Same as always, that guy went to the battlefield scenic area to worship again!" You Guo said. "He can look at it endlessly, but we have no interest in accompanying him."

"Do you think... he'll come back here?" Tanya suddenly asked.

"Which 'him'? Brother Fan?"

You Guo sighed, "Brother Fan's record is indeed quite frightening; he's from a completely different world than us."

"However... I don't think what he said when he left was just empty words or polite talk."

"Back in the instance, he could have ignored the people of Bai Village, but he didn't hesitate to bring all the villagers out, which shows how trustworthy he is. Such a trustworthy person... I believe he will come back."
