Chapter 18
Added to the grudge of his severed arm, Ni Yongyao estimated that it wouldn't be long before Tai Zi came to seek revenge.
When that time came, he could harvest another wave.
"Ten one-star assassins died, leaving one hundred.
The two-star assassin did not die, only suffering minor injuries."
Ni Yongyao took stock of the number of assassins; he had a vague perception of every assassin exchanged from the system.
The one hundred surviving one-star assassins all had minor injuries, which would not affect the upcoming battles.
This wasn't to say there were no heavily injured ones, but whenever an injury affected combat, the assassin would proactively trade their life with the enemy; often, one could drag several enemies to their doom.
To Ni Yongyao, these low-level assassins were all consumables.
Just like in a game, players always focus on hero-level units; no one cares about the life or death of foot soldiers.
"The number of assassins is sufficient; there's no need for replenishment for now. It's time to pull twice and test the waters."
Ni Yongyao looked at the 228 gold coins and immediately opened the lottery interface.
"One lottery draw costs 100 gold coins. Do you wish to start the lottery?"
"Start!"
Ni Yongyao did not hesitate in the slightest.
"Drawing prize..."
"Ding!"
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the pager patent technology!"
Ni Yongyao saw the content of the reward, and his heart stirred immediately.
A pager, commonly known as a beeper.
Its function was mainly to receive information, equivalent to a text message that couldn't be replied to.
After mobile phones became popular in the 21st century, the beeper naturally exited the historical stage.
"But this is Hong Kong in 1991. Mobile phones are far from popular; this is the most glorious era for beepers!"
Ni Yongyao realized a huge business opportunity.
Nowadays, the beepers on the market are mainly brands like Motorola and Panasonic, all of which are large enterprises that would become household names later.
If Ni Yongyao could get a foot in the door and cut a slice of this huge cake, he would definitely be able to eat until his mouth was oily.
And most importantly, the beeper business was a legitimate one.
Currently, most of the Ni family's funds came from underworld businesses; the profits were high, but the risks were equally high, and one slip could lead to the destruction of the family.
Only legitimate businesses could become the pillar and foundation of a family.
"Sure enough, you have to gamble to turn a bicycle into a motorcycle!"
Ni Yongyao rubbed his hands, feeling that these 100 gold coins were spent very worthily.
The pager patent technology was worth far more than one hundred one-star assassins.
Ni Yongyao then calmed his mood and chose to draw again.
"Drawing..."
"Ding!"
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the three-star assassin: GOGO!"
"Gold coin balance: 28."
"GOGO?"
Ni Yongyao saw this name and searched his memory for a while before finding the corresponding image.
GOGO came from the movie *Kill Bill* and was a teenage assassin skilled in using a meteor hammer.
The next moment, a flash of light and shadow appeared before Ni Yongyao's eyes.
A teenage girl with long hair reaching her waist and exquisite features appeared out of thin air; it was indeed GOGO.
【Name: GOGO】
【Occupation: Bodyguard】
【Height: 163cm】
【Specialty: Meteor hammer, gymnastics, dance】
GOGO was wearing a JK uniform, revealing cream-like thighs under her short skirt, and further down were calves wrapped in thick, piled-up socks, with a pair of pure white sneakers on her feet.
At a glance, GOGO was a school-beauty-level Japanese sweet girl, completely unrelated to an assassin.
But in her hand, she was holding a meteor hammer in a highly incongruous manner.
The alloy-forged hammerhead was the size of two fists, held in GOGO's hand by a thin, long chain.
"Master."
GOGO faced Ni Yongyao and knelt on one knee.
"Call me Mr. Ni."
Ni Yongyao said.
"Ding."
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining Meteor Hammer Mastery through GOGO!"
The system prompt sounded, and Ni Yongyao felt a warm current surge within his body, which quickly merged into his limbs and bones.
A vast amount of memory regarding practicing the meteor hammer was deeply imprinted in his mind, as if he had honed it for many years.
Ni Yongyao had already experienced this feeling through the White Ghost before, so he adapted quickly.
He then sized GOGO up a few times and asked, "What is your real name?"
"Chiaki Kuriyama."
GOGO said.
"From now on, I'll call you Qianming."
Ni Yongyao said; for him, it was smoother to speak Chinese.
"Okay, Mr. Ni."
Chiaki Kuriyama appeared very obedient.
This was also normal; whether through lottery or exchange, as long as they came from the system, they would naturally be absolutely loyal and absolutely obedient to Ni Yongyao.
No matter how outrageous Ni Yongyao's orders were, they would not refuse, even if it meant committing suicide immediately.
"I heard you've studied gymnastics and dance?"
Ni Yongyao looked at his watch; it was getting late, and it was time to go to bed.
But before that.
Appreciating some art and cultivating one's sentiments was also very necessary.
"First, do a standing split and let me see."
Ni Yongyao leaned on the sofa and lit a cigar.
"Yes, Mr. Ni."
Chiaki Kuriyama did not show a hint of resistance, directly raising her thigh to perform a high-difficulty standing split.
The next day.
Sunlight shone into the bedroom, and Ni Yongyao slowly woke up.
He stretched his muscles and bones; the hard work of last night had allowed Ni Yongyao to get great relaxation, and he felt refreshed.
"Mr. Ni, your clothes are ready."
Chiaki Kuriyama held the folded suit in her hands.
The girl was still in her JK uniform, with the meteor hammer tied to her waist, swaying with her movements.
If one didn't look closely, they would think it was some kind of trendy accessory.
Ni Yongyao nodded, and then, under Chiaki Kuriyama's service, he dressed neatly.
He opened the bedroom door.
The White Ghost was standing at the door; upon seeing Ni Yongyao, he immediately bowed and said respectfully, "Mr. Ni."
As for Chiaki Kuriyama, the White Ghost did not show surprise.
Since they both came from the system, they could be considered fellow countrymen to some extent. ===== CHAPTER 20 =====
