Keep attacking girls and try not to be killed by them

Unexpectedly, Jiang Ran ran into Wei'er and Grandma Rabbit after just taking two steps.

(Hashrate boost and overclocking!)

As soon as he saw the two of them, Jiang Ran subconsciously activated his skills and nervously checked whether Emilia was within a radius of 30 meters.

6.25 - Star Position Announcement (nd Update)

It has to be said that in order to avoid suddenly running into the Shura field, Jiang Ran's ability to observe and search for the "enemy" has been greatly improved.

With the help of the deceleration skill, Jiang Ran only took three seconds to confirm that Emilia was not within a radius of 30 meters, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

(Sigh…I really live in fear every day.)

To be precise, due to the effect of "fearlessness", Jiang Ran was only "shocked" but not "frightened", but it must be said that if he continued to be so nervous, he would sooner or later shorten his life.

"Banning! Great! I finally found you!"

As soon as Wei'er saw Jiang Ran, she ran over quickly.

Behind her, the fortune-telling rabbit spirit grandmother slowly swayed over.

"Haha, so this is what it means to encounter 'another knitting needle'~" Grandma Rabbit muttered to herself.

Jiang Ran didn't understand what she was saying, and immediately looked into Grandma Rabbit's heart. Then he realized that Grandma Rabbit had told Wei'er about her fortune. The result of the fortune telling was that tonight would be the best time for Wei'er to leave Sunny Town, and she could also meet "another knitting needle" before leaving.

(‘Another knitting needle’…could it be me?)

Jiang Ran thought about it. Wei'er has always liked making clothes, and knitting needles are indispensable tools for knitting sweaters, and they come in pairs. So the message implied by this divination result is self-evident...even a little scary.

"Hmm? Are you looking for me? I'm about to go out to eat, do you want to join us?"

Jiang Ran asked knowingly, pretending to be surprised, and then successfully led Wei'er and Grandma Rabbit away from the area where Emilia might be, and came to a remote but delicious restaurant.

·

During the meal, Jiang Ran was "very surprised" to "learn" that Wei'er and Grandma Rabbit were leaving Sunny Town for Medison Town tonight. He then volunteered and took them to a familiar carriage station after dinner, arranging the best carriage and coachman for them to depart tonight.

Before leaving, while Grandma Rabbit went to fill the water bag, Wei'er seized the opportunity to be alone with Banning.

Shy Ver didn't know what to say to Banning, but Elle did have something to say.

"Banning, um... Sister Elle said she has something to tell you..."

Jiang Ran's heart tightened when he heard this, thinking that what was supposed to happen had finally happened. Then he maintained a calm appearance and nodded.

In the blink of an eye, Wei'er's originally gentle expression became fierce, and she instantly transformed from a cute girl next door into a Valkyrie who dominated the battlefield.

At the same time, the status information Jiang Ran saw also changed.

━━━━━━━━━━

Ai'er, female, 16 years old, a villager from Ella Village

Production occupation: None

Manufacturing Occupation: Tailor - Lv9

Combat Occupation: Killer - Lv20

Skill: 1 / 1

━━━━━━━━━━

After only a month of not seeing each other, Ai'er's combat profession "Murderer" has been upgraded from level 6 to level 20, which Jiang Ran did not expect.

It seems that Wei'er has experienced a lot of hardships during her time living alone and traveling and adventuring.

(No wonder he was so agile that night...)

"Haha, Banning, are you thinking that Wei'er is finally leaving and we don't have to worry anymore?"

As soon as Ai'er opened her mouth, Jiang Ran's heart was in turmoil.

Women's intuition is really terrible.

Jiang Ran kept his expression calm and began to "fight" with Ai'er in a steady tone.

"Sister Ai'er, if it weren't for the schedule conflict, I wanted to go to Medison Town with Wei'er."

"Humph, still full of sweet words as usual. Don't think I don't know what you stinky men are thinking."

If Jiang Ran didn't have the ability to read minds, he really wouldn't dare to easily conclude that Sister Ai'er was bluffing.

"Sister Ai'er, you're overthinking it." Jiang Ran spread his hands helplessly.

At this moment, Ai'er suddenly took half a step forward and sniffed Jiang Ran's scent hard.

"Hey, you smell like another woman?"

"Well, I have to deal with a lot of people every day, so it's inevitable that I'll pick up some odors. Why don't you smell it again to see if there are any other odors?"

Jiang Ran remained calm and not at all flustered.

Through mind reading, he could see Elle's thoughts clearly.

At this moment, Ai'er herself was not completely sure, she was just putting pressure and testing.

After several rounds of confrontation, Ai'er returned empty-handed. Before switching back to Wei'er, she reluctantly said something harsh to Jiang Ran.

"Anyway, if you dare to mess around behind Wei'er's back, I won't let you go."

After saying that, Ai'er stretched out her hand and made a "click?" gesture.

In response, Jiang Ran could only smile.

·

After getting Wei'er back, Wei'er apologized to Jiang Ran repeatedly, and Jiang Ran's conscience ached slightly.

Afterwards, Grandma Rabbit came back with the water and got on the carriage with Wei'er.

While Wei'er was not paying attention, Grandma Rabbit secretly slipped a note to Jiang Ran and then winked at him.

Jiang Ran understood and accepted it silently.

·

Jiang Ran felt a little reluctant to see Wei'er and Grandma Rabbit about to leave.

Before the carriage was about to set off, Jiang Ran handed all the remaining four smoke bombs to Wei'er through the carriage window.

"Wei Er, this thing will produce smoke when you throw it out. You can use it when you encounter danger and need to escape. Take it with you for self-defense!"

"Yeah! Thank you, Banning! I'll keep it well!"

Wei'er accepted it with gratitude, tears welling up in her eyes.

Then, the carriage started moving, Jiang Ran waved his arms towards the carriage, and Wei'er and Grandma Rabbit stuck their heads out of the window and looked at Jiang Ran.

"Grandma Nana! Wei'er! Take care on your journey! I'll find you in Madison Town!"

"Okay! Banning, you should also pay more attention to safety!"

"Come on, young man~!"

Amid the clatter of wheels, the carriage moved further and further away.

Jiang Ran stood there and watched, and he did not leave until the carriage disappeared in the distance.

·

Today, Jiang Ran first said goodbye to Grandma Cassie, then to Wei'er and Grandma Rabbit Spirit, the fortune-telling girl. This kind of sadness of separation is always unpleasant no matter when.

There is no internet or telephone in the Prison Star world, and the letter-writing system available to civilians is also imperfect. It is really difficult to meet again after separation.

But this also reminded Jiang Ran of the purpose of his appearance in the Prison Star World. No matter what, he had to complete the mission and return to the Earth World to save his father and his family.

After coming to his senses, Jiang Ran opened the note that the fortune-telling rabbit spirit grandmother had slipped to him. It read:

━━━━━━━━━━

Banning, the affairs of the Scarlet Qi family all depend on you.

I don't have anything to give you, nor can I predict your future. However, today I did divine your "star message", which is rather abstract, and you can only interpret its specific meaning by yourself.

·

"Star Message: Banning"

Don't be greedy for the light dance of butterflies, black butterflies are servants of snakes;

Don't ignore the cry of the deer, the holy white deer is the messenger of God;

━━━━━━━━━━

(Is this... some kind of warning and... reminder?)

Jiang Ran read the "Star Position Message" several times. He had no idea what some of the images in it, such as the butterfly and the white deer, but he was somewhat familiar with the image of the snake.

(I'll go back to the hotel and rest while I think about it.)

It was getting late, and Jiang Ran didn't want to stand outside and waste time, but speaking of the hotel... it reminded him of what he had said to Emilia today.

——"Emilia, there may still be remnants of the mayor's forces... Your home is not safe recently. If you don't mind, please stay in the hotel with me."

6.26 - Trouble with the Quest Guild (Part )

"Emm..."

Jiang Ran held his forehead and didn't want to go back to the hotel anymore.

As the saying goes, if a wise man thinks a lot, he will make a mistake.

Originally, Jiang Ran asked Emilia to stay with him in the hotel in order to prevent Emilia from meeting Wei'er when she returned home.

Now, Wei'er has gone to Medison Town with Grandma Rabbit, and Jiang Ran sent her away personally, so there is no need for him to restrict Emilia's actions anymore.

But the words have already been spoken. Can I find an excuse to drive Emilia away overnight?

(Benni: You’re not someone who can’t do something like this, so you’re just a scumbag to the end.)

Jiang Ran had a little thought of doing this, such as getting another room or something... However, since the silly loli had already said so, Jiang Ran couldn't let her look down on him.

What's more, the situation in Sunny Town is turbulent now, and there might be remnants of the mayor's forces.

So, Jiang Ran strode towards the hotel where he was staying, but his steps were a little weak.

·

On the way back, Jiang Ran thought about the content of the "Star Message" to divert his attention from "what might happen tonight."

Speaking of the image of "snake", Jiang Ran immediately thought of the Snake Shadow Society and the Earth Ghost.

If we follow this line of thought, the "Black Butterfly" is a servant of the Earth Ghost (Snake Shadow Society), and it will use some means to get close to Jiang Ran, and it will be dangerous.

On the other hand, to resolve this crisis, we must pay attention to the "cry" of the "deer", but how should we interpret the sentence "The Holy White Deer is the messenger of God"?

Speaking of the concept of "God", the people Jiang Ran has come into contact with so far all believe in the "Good God". However, it is not yet clear whether this Good God is the same concept as the Good God who gave Jiang Ran the super-dimensional divine eye.

(In short, the underground ghost probably hasn't given up on monitoring me yet...)

Since the Earth Ghost has not given up, it means that the "only demon god" behind the Earth Ghost still has murderous intentions towards Jiang Ran.

In other words, they have discovered that Banning is not dead yet.

Jiang Ran took out the "Universal Stone" obtained in the "Purple Trial" and wanted to use it to exchange for energy points for "Predicting Future Death Scenes".

After hesitating for a while, Jiang Ran put away the all-purpose raw stone again, thinking that it was not the right time yet.

The reason is very simple. The first time the "Only Demon God" came to kill Jiang Ran was "May 5th", and the second time he came to kill Jiang Ran was "June 5th", which was yesterday.

There were 52 days between the two times, and this was most likely the cooling time of the Solitary Demon's teleportation ability.

Even if the only demon god was delayed due to other things and did not come to kill Jiang Ran immediately, the cooling time should not be less than 30 days.

Therefore, Jiang Ran deduced that, under the most conservative circumstances, he would only have to worry about the appearance of the One and Only Demon God after 20 days.

The hotel where Jiang Ran stayed was just opposite the Mission Guild. When he arrived at the hotel, he found that the lights in the Mission Guild were still on, which meant that Emilia was still working inside.
