“What’s an interdependent contract?”

As soon as Luo Jian entered the bar, he sat hiressively dereat boss was as drunk as always He squinted at Luo Jian for a long tiure out who the other was, before finallyin realization, “Ah! It’s Ah Jian… Hic! He came to find me… You caain?”

Gnashi+ng his teeth in impatience, Luo Jian inhaled deeply then fiercely slammed his palms down on the table in front of him The wine bottle on the table toppled over with the force of the impact At last, the slovenly elder boss snapped out of his drunken reverie and directly faced a Luo Jian as e violently in trepidation, the pathetic boss revealed, “This so-called interdependent contract…”

“Well, it’s just as its name says To put it in simpler terms, an interdependent contract means that the party who has been bound by this contract is unilaterally and unconditionally controlled by the party who has forreat uncle boss shook his head helplessly “The biggest advantage to this contract is probably the shared life, or connected fate, that binds the two parties together Even if one party is on the verge of death, as long as said party isn’t completely dead, the other party can support the for his own life force to the other’s, ulti both sides to survive

“Thirteen has informed me about what happened It seeht up in this dah For the ti, his life has been saved; however, that doesn’tFor the next few days, all you can do is wait patiently”

“Wait for the next chamber, you mean?”

“If your friend is truly in an interdependent contract with that fellow called Duan Li, then according to the rules of the contract, their lives are now tied to each other and this shared link can no longer be separated With this contract now in order, there’s a high possibility that Duan Li has automatically broken free from his default NPC identity” A azed at Luo Jian He continued, “That being said, he will be your third companion, whether you like it or not The chan hi bullshi+t!” Luo Jian was utterly incensed when he heard the boss’ words He smacked the table hard and stood up No questions asked, Luo Jian absolutely despised the thought of having a de was si to even consider! Luo Jian could already iine ould happen next

“There’s no point in getting angry withback and forth, the intoxicated uncle seeht the other’s misfortune He chuckled in amusement, “Such a powerful player has joined your team This is either a disaster for you both, or perhaps a blessing in disguise The biggest issue at hand, however, is the next cha There’s no doubt it’ll be several tiot a new team member That Duan Li is definitely an expert who has experienced more than five chainable, harrowing dangers But there are always two sides of the coin, and where there are disadvantages, there will always be advantages The greater the perils, the greater the rewards you receive If you e to survive your next chaest of all rookies In fact, you’re already advancing and growing faster than most”

Luo Jian narrowed his eyes pensively “But the price I need to pay is very high, isn’t it?”

“My dear child, ah” Shaking his head, the boss spread out his palms “Success is built on uncertainties and risks And I doubt you, of all people, don’t have the guts to take this gae in the first place, then you wouldn’t have been chosen by the chambers”

Luo Jian didn’t respond He re to leave Just when he raised his leg to step out of the door, the Boss, who see in that instant, suddenly called out to hi the other in his tracks “You still haven’t met the veteran player I wanted to introduce you to before, have you? Perhaps you canany loot you happen to have obtained in the chamber with you; you never know, maybe you’ll be in for a pleasant surprise”

“Loot?” Luo Jian stared back at the other suspiciously “How did you know?”

“I guessed” An unfathomable, profound look clouded the boss’ features “In exactly three days’ tiave the other a curt nod, then exited the dilapidated bar He was constantly ht, so he had no time to rest Before he knew it, it was already nine o’clock in thebrightly in the clear skies, and the streets were busy; the world was passing normally, like every other ordinary day Luo Jian bite at his fingers to keep himself awake and distracted, but this little habit seemed to have annoyed that restless little buddy of his, that monochrome serpent

The serpent coiled around his arm and remained utterly motionless, like a metal bracelet Even when its own master, that Stalker, appeared, the snake was still indifferent It was so calot about its existence However, just now, itaround Luo Jian’s wrist again Its icy touch rew cal on the other’s ar unusual about it, Luo Jian siht now, he wasYu Lan, Luo Jiantemples He always knew that he himself didn’t have much luck, but that idiot was truly one unlucky bastard Not only had he aed to catch the eye of ato kill him! This outcome was completely out of Luo Jian’s expectations And now, Luo Jian didn’t even knohere Duan Li took hiht back on the boss’ words After hardening his heart and co himself, he decided to put thisHe should try not to worry about the other for a while So long as he had his life, there would always be an opportunity to get his friend back

As of this moment, Luo Jian focused on the veteran player he would see in a few days; if he had to be honest, he was actually looking forward tohim He then reained an unexpected fortune

But with Feng Yu Lan’s disappearance, trouble ca houests ca him over to the police station for a small chat Luo Jian had absolutely no idea how to explain why or how Feng Yu Lan suddenly wentclosely supervised by the police, he had easily been taken away Not only were there two officers keeping watch on hi in bed, but there was even an undercover vanhim from outside the hospital If not all, the wards and corridors of the hospital were also filled with surveillance cameras
