Spirit Master Girl: Contracting with an SSS-Level School Beauty at the Start-Chapter 342: Pretend
Chapter 342: Chapter 342: Pretend
But he just wanted to ask clearly, "Young man, don’t take it as me meddling, I just want to say that Nansha City is a mixed bag. Most of the people are outlaws who fled from various Federations, all carrying some grudges."
"Young man, if you could inform me of your identity in advance, I could make arrangements to avoid unnecessary conflicts later."
Xiao Zhan chuckled, "My identity is nothing to mention, I have no grudges, I’m just eloping here with my wife."
"Oh, that’s the case."
Lin Long’s expression was murky, clearly not believing Xiao Zhan’s words.
"Boy, it’s so hot, why aren’t you guys drinking? Is it not to your taste? Whether you like dark or clear, I have them both here." Seeing Xiao Zhan and his companion holding their drinks but not drinking, Lin Long urged again.
Saying that, he took out two more bottles from his case.
"No no, you’re too kind, we’re just not thirsty yet," Xiao Zhan explained.
Lin Long didn’t believe that, "In such dry weather, how can you not be thirsty? Oh, I get it, you don’t trust us."
Lin Long tossed the drinks to his other two brothers.
The three of them opened the caps and gulped down their drinks like cattle drinking water, finishing a bottle in a few seconds.
They turned the bottle upside down, meaning they finished.
"How about that, do you feel reassured now?"
Xiao Zhan awkwardly grinned and said nothing.
He just glanced at Ye Youlong, then opened his drink and poured it into his mouth.
Lin Long stared unblinkingly as Xiao Zhan and Ye Youlong drank up, a hint of a smug smirk flashing deep in his eyes.
"Come, young man, have another bottle."
"No prize, just thanks for the patronage," Xiao Zhan naively smiled, shaking the cap in his hand.
Lin Long took a moment to catch on, then burst into laughter, "Young man, you’re really funny. No wonder you married such a beautiful wife. If I had your way with words, I wouldn’t still be single."
Xiao Zhan also found this strange.
The three men, each without a Contracted Artifact Spirit.
But Xiao Zhan didn’t ask further.
In this world, there are many who don’t contract with Artifact Spirits.
The car drove on for a while.
Xiao Zhan watched the passing scenery, sensing something amiss, "Did you take the wrong way? This doesn’t seem like the road to Nansha City."
"How could we take the wrong way? We have lived here for so many years, the routes are etched in our minds. Don’t worry, this is the right way."
"No, this is not the way to Nansha City, I have a map, I know the directions." Xiao Zhan suddenly panicked, shouting, "Stop the car, I want to get out!"
"Get out?" Seeing Xiao Zhan’s panicked expression, Lin Long smirked triumphantly, no longer pretending, and pulled out a gun, pressing it against Xiao Zhan’s waist, "You better behave now, or I’ll send you off right away!"
"Who exactly are you, where do you want to take us?" Xiao Zhan dared not move.
Lin Long evilly smiled, "Didn’t plan to take you anywhere, just saw your pretty wife and thought to take a detour for a fling. If you behave, our three brothers will let you go after we’re done."
"If you don’t cooperate, don’t blame us for turning you two into desperate lovers!"
As he finished speaking, the car screeched to a halt.
The driver, Lin Bao, turned around to Lin Long and said, "Big brother, this is the place, it’s perfect, the kind where no one will respond even if you scream."
Lin Long glanced outside, indeed it was a good spot.
He viciously commanded Xiao Zhan, "Get out of the car!"
Xiao Zhan grimaced in pain, clutching his stomach, "Ah, my stomach hurts terribly, like being knifed, I can’t move!"
"Even if you can’t move, get the hell out of here and stop bothering me while I’m working!"
Outside, Lin Bao opened the car door, and Lin Long was about to kick Xiao Zhan out.
But at that moment, he suddenly sensed something was wrong, turned his head sharply, "Lin Hu, did you mess up the medication? Weren’t they supposed to be incapacitated? Why stomach pain?"
Before Lin Hu could answer, Xiao Zhan let out an "ah" and said bewilderingly, "Is it supposed to make my whole body go limp? Sorry, I mispackaged it, let me do it again... Ouch, my body’s so soft, can’t firm up anymore..."
Lin Long: Pretend...
Lin Hu: Pretend???
Lin Bao: PRETEND!!!
Suddenly, the atmosphere turned eerily silent.
Three pairs of eyes stared intently at Xiao Zhan.
"Pfft." freёnovelkiss.com
Suddenly, a snicker broke the creepy silence.
Ye Youlong couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
Xiao Zhan’s poor acting aside, why were his lines also so dirty?
Meanwhile, her laughter also snapped the three men back to their senses, with Lin Long the first to react, "Damn it, are you guys okay?"
Without hesitating, he fired a shot at Xiao Zhan.
Snap.
Despite his anger, a shred of reason remained—he knew Xiao Zhan had signed a Life and Death Contract with Ye Youlong, so the shot wasn’t aimed at a fatal spot.
But then, does it make any difference where he shot?
Plop~
The bullet hit Xiao Zhan, didn’t even tear through his clothes, but was directly repelled by an invisible force.
As luck would have it, the returning bullet hit a metal pillar on the car, snapped back, and, just coincidentally, hit Lin Bao nearby.
The bullet pierced his head, and Lin Bao was dead on the spot.
Seeing this, Lin Long was instantly panicked, disregarding everything else, and fired relentlessly at Xiao Zhan.
Bang bang bang...
A whole clip, emptied.
Yet, Xiao Zhan was unharmed; instead, Lin Hu, who was merely watching, dropped dead.
Seeing this, Lin Long’s face turned pale, and he was somewhat frightened.
His hands trembling as he tried to reload, but the magazine, which always fitted so perfectly, now seemed blocked by something and wouldn’t go in.
Lin Long collapsed, throwing away the gun and kneeling before Xiao Zhan, begging for mercy.
"Young man... no, I mean, sir! Sir, I know I was wrong, I was blindsighted... Sir, please spare me, it was all but a moment of foolishness!"
Xiao Zhan elegantly stretched out his hand, drew a line in the air, and a crack appeared, with liquid flowing out of it.
It was the drink from earlier.
Now recognized by the spatial attribute, Xiao Zhan’s use of the Space Skill had become handily practical and increasingly versatile.
Earlier, he had deployed Dimension Space in his mouth; the liquid he appeared to drink didn’t actually enter his mouth but went directly into the Dimension Space.
Xiao Zhan slapped Lin Long across the face, sending him flying like a ball for tens of meters.
Lin Long only felt his head buzzing.
The world spun around.
