Chapter 282 - The Urge to Escape (2/2)

“Er…”

“Drop it! Help me! If you don’t act now, I’m going to collapse!”

“I can’t help you…”

“Why?” Lonemoon paused. He stabbed a beast that was charging toward him and rushed, “I can’t hold on for much longer. Hurry up!”

“Oh.” Shen Ying sighed. She took over his sword and waved it around. Immediately, a white flash appeared in the sky. There was a series of noises as the dense herd of S-grade beasts fell over, dead.

They all got destroyed in an instant!

The roars that sounded from all directions suddenly stopped.

Lonemoon heaved a sigh of relief. The array around him darkened.

Shen Ying kept the sword and pointed to the air above them. “Because of this!”

What?

Lonemoon paused. Before he could reach, a loud ding sounded from the air. A voice then filled the entire planet. It was monotonous and mechanical.

[Ding! A huge anomaly has been detected. Users confirmed: Shen Ying, Father Niu. A mass killing weapon has been carried into this game planet. This is a serious offence that damages the balance of the planet. The two user will be dealt with! They are banned from District S for two months!]

The next moment, Lonemoon saw the points on the bottom right-hand side of his screen deplete from millions to thousands to hundreds and finally, 100.

Lonemoon: “…” Son of a b*tch!

Forget about his score being wiped out – why was his ID Father Niu?

To hell with this “Father Niu” business!

(╯‵□′)╯(┻━┻

For the umpteenth time, he wanted to dump Shen Ying and run off!

——————

“Where are we going?” Lonemoon, who had been transported to District A by force, glanced at Shen Ying, who was walking in front of him.

“To the market,” Shen Ying replied as she chewed on a fruit.

“What for?” Lonemoon hesitated.

Shen Ying halted as she turned around seriously. “Father Niu, I’ve done my analysis. We failed because we could only fight as hard as we could earlier and we had no assistance.”

Was the failure earlier on not because she got caught cheating? She even dragged him into the mess!

“So-”

“So we should form a nanny!”

“…” What the hell!

Lonemoon pursed his lips and pondered the suggestion. According to the set routes in the game, a nanny would indeed be helpful to them. Given Shen Ying’s million and one ways of cheating, she would be utterly useless to the team. All she would be able to do would be to stand aside and watch.

Although he was strong in battle, energy remained a problem. He was not as perverted as Chef – he would not give his life in battle. If there was a nanny causing some damage to the herd of beasts earlier, Shen Ying would not have gotten involved and caused trouble.

“Is there really such a race as nannies in the Star Network?” Lonemoon eyed her suspiciously. The information sheet from earlier had said it all – there were no special skills in the game. Everybody who entered depended on their own skills to kill beasts. The only kinds of special skills people had were the ones belonging to their own ethnicity. For example, black people could stay camouflaged in the night.

“Relax, it’s alright!”

“…” Why did he feel even more unsettled upon hearing that?
