147 Pink Eye-row (1/2)

The long yellow-blue line finally dissipated completely as the blue arrow on its tail reached the top of the screen. In the meantime, other arrows started to infest the bottom, like ants when their nest was destroyed.

Zhou Lei prepared himself for the onslaught of arrows that was about to appear, and with a greater speed as well.

'No matter.' He brushed off the increased speed as a small matter. After all, only a second would be needed for him to adapt to the speed adjustment.

What's more, Zhou Lei adjusted his mindset as well. He thought of these pesky arrows as enemies - those that would threaten to kill him, in the same way that it would threaten to destroy his ongoing combo or his chances of getting a perfect score. Only if he parried their attacks, as in, stepping on the plates of the machine, would he be able to live another day.

His eyes flared up as he stared at the rising arrows. '...What did I ever do to you, arrows?!'

Zhou Lei was now filled with unending hatred for the objects in the arcade game. His fists clenched, and veins started popping out of his arms, although they weren't visible as they were covered by his black jacket.

The intensity in his eyes spread across the large room, which an unnaturally large amount of people occupied. One of those people was Lin Guiying, who was caught in a trance watching her friend do so well in the game.

All of the people felt the intense emotions coming from the handsome youth, sending a chill through their spines. Lin Guiying was no exception, being in a situation no better than the rest.

'This intensity, it's familiar... Hou Heng?'

Hou Heng, the popular celebrity, went through her mind. The thought disappeared as fast as it came. She shook her head. 'He wouldn't have enough time to mentor anyone, I would think. But why is it so familiar...?'

As Lin Guiying continued to ponder about why watching Zhou Lei would invoke the same feelings within her as watching Hou Heng, Zhou Lei continued to annihilate the arrows seamlessly, and he seemed to do it with relative ease and without effort as well.

It only took him about a second to adapt to the increased speed of the arrows, and that made the spectators admire him more.

'Look at our fanclub leader! Not only is his handsomeness otherworldly, he also had this hidden skill up his sleeves! No other can match up to him...!' The admiration levels of Zhou Lei's fellow fanclub members reached new heights...

A couple of arrows here and there were no match for Zhou Lei's ferocity. He would stomp the arrow plate as soon as those pitiful arrows reached the top. In fact, his stomp was a little too hard...

”You better lose yourself in the-! De. Spa. Ghetti~”
