39 That Poker Card (2/2)

“What if I say no?” Hisith’s eyes turned cold as a chilling aura emanated from his body. Inside the barrier, it became a world of ice and snow.

“I will stop you.” One-Pun slowly pulled out the blade from the scabbard by his waist. The blade’s edge revealed a cold luster.

“Then I’ll see you try!” Hisith roared out coldly. Inside the barrier, with a “Pu” sound, hundreds of poker cards appeared, hovering in mid air. It filled the entire barrier, surrounding One-Pun completely.

One-Pun sighed and unsheathed his blade. As he held it in his hand, his stance caused his white cape to flutter high up. The dull and lifeless eyes turned sharp, emitting a cold beam.

The numerous poker cards hovering mid air was about to move, while One-Pun’s blade seemed like it would slash forwards.

“Ding! Ding! Ding!”

Suddenly, an alerting sound spontaneously chimed from their bodies. One-Pun and Hisith raised their right arms immediately and looked at something that looked like a watch. At the same time, their expressions changed.

“An A Class calamity!?”

“Meteor shower!?”

The two of them shouted two different things, but it seemed like they were referring to the same thing. They raised their heads and glanced at each other. A wry smile appeared between the two of them.

“It looks like we do not have time for this.”

Hisith shrugged his shoulders as all the poker cards immediately disappeared. He said, “The A Class meteor shower calamity will take three hours to hit Southern Gold City. As S Class Heroes, we have to be there. We can still barely make it in time if we rush there now.”

One-Pun nodded and sheathed his blade. At the same time, he removed the black barrier and after hesitating, he said, “You go first.”

Hisith fell silent for a moment and took at a glance at Shi Xiaobai, who was squatting on the ground, attempting to produce a castle. He had a look of indignation in his eyes, but with a wave of his hand, he removed the black barrier he set up. Following that, he rushed out of the door with a speed like the wind, disappearing from sight.

With the barriers removed, the rookies were surprised to see One-Pun’s figure. They immediately screamed.

“His Excellency, One-Pun!?”

“Holy shit, isn’t this that…invincible One-Pun?”

“Heavens, I actually got to see my idol with my own eyes!”

“One of the three powerhouses of Gaia, ranked alongside Hisith, an S Class Hero! It’s said that no one dares fight him!”

“I entered Gaia so that I could one day be able to meet His Excellency One-Pun. I never expected my dream to be realized so soon!”

“…”

When One-Pun heard those flattering words, his face went dull. After he stood there for a few minutes in silence, confirming that Hisith did not return, he nodded at the seated rookies. With a wave of his hand, he bade farewell, and rushed out the door at an extremely fast speed. Just like Hisith, he disappeared from everyone’s vision.

Everyone was stunned as they began to engage in conversation, discussing what had happened vividly.

“This King succeeded!”

Suddenly, a pleasant yelp sounded from the platform, instantly attracting everyone’s attention. They saw the squatting Shi Xiaobai suddenly stand up. He turned to look at everyone, and in his hands, there was a pure white object. Looking carefully, it was an exquisite-looking castle.

“This King’s castle, completed!” Shi Xiaobai’s bright smile shimmered like the stars.

Everyone was dumbfounded. How the f*ck did he do that?

That’s not right, why are you so f*cking calm, sitting there playing with yourself?

At this moment, a poker card fell from the top of the building. It gently landed on Shi Xiaobai’s shoulder.
