Chapter 100: Miss Kelaien Wants to Draw Cards
"Did a donkey kick you in the head?" A man with drooping brows and a slightly comical face raised his eyebrows and said, "You resurrected me just for this nonsense?"
At a roadside stall, two dragons and one god sat on wooden benches, slurping Japanese ramen that cost 1,200 yen a bowl.
After confirming the owner couldn't understand Chinese, the three of them exchanged information in Chinese.
"Slurp~"
"Want me to send you back?" Old Lu chewed two bites of noodles, his gaze a little dangerous.
"Never mind then…"
Whether as the Bronze and Flame Long Wang or as Luo Nade Tang, He believed the beginning and the experiences could be bizarre, even absurd, but the purpose couldn't be nonsense.
The future Lu Mingfei became the Sovereign, or rather he had always been the Sovereign, and then crossed back from the future timeline to save everything.
Very good, full of spirit.
He'd still seen quite a few Hollywood blockbusters, even though they were all downloaded pirated copies and he'd never contributed a single cent to the cinema, but that didn't hinder his understanding of this kind of sci-fi plot.
Then, the current Lu Mingfei can travel to other worlds; this one who resurrected him, a light god named Su Su Shengguang Lin produced from the Zhongxi junction, also came from another world.
Oh-ho-ho, transmigration drama, another world, not bad, he quite likes it too.
In the end, the future Lu Mingfei wanted to build a harem for his past self and rule the world on the side; the Sovereign's younger brother and the current Lu Mingfei disagreed, and then found three helpers from other worlds.
Now the two sides are about to fight, so they had him resurrected early to join the brawl.
"Ah…"
The world was changing too fast; this old dragon was having a bit of trouble keeping up with the rhythm of the times.
Ruling the world or whatever, with the dragon race's dominant mindset it wasn't anything incomprehensible, especially since this world was originally under the Sovereign's control, and He who wanted to take everything back also had that ability.
But this kind of thing about falling in love with humans…
He didn't know why, but he somehow felt it was a bit absurd; even though he as Luo Nade Tang quite liked watching those bikini babes, that didn't stop him as Norton from finding this kind of thing bizarre.
There really wouldn't be a Long Wang who falls in love with a human and wants to have little monkeys with one, right…
And the other party was that Sovereign at the apex of the dragon race.
He was still somewhat puzzled.
"What's the other party's background?" Old Tang felt the Japanese noodles were awfully salty, so he copied Old Lu's way of eating and had Su Lin translate to ask the owner for a bowl of rice.
"Morax, also known as Zhongli, a retired earth god, now a Geo Archon and also an immortal; Xiao Yan, a protagonist of the engagement-breaking trope, can hand-craft mushrooms and carries an old grandpa cheat with him; Miss Kelaien Mo Leidi, a bizarre-style demigod, similar to a Lovecraftian style."
After Su Lin finished translating, he said to Old Tang: "Oh, right, I'm actually in cahoots with them too, but I won't be joining the frontal combat, probably, maybe, since my deal with Lu Mingze doesn't include that item."
"And the one right in front of me currently still counts as my employer."
"Good lord…" Old Tang shoveled a mouthful of rice, "your composition is a bit complicated."
"How many elements did you stitch in?!"
Su Lin thought carefully, "It shouldn't count as too many."
"Why is an Archon also moonlighting as an immortal, is this one also from the Zhongxi junction?" Old Tang felt that other worlds really had every kind of situation.
"Forget it, give me a phone and pull me into the group, I'll take those enhanced half-bloods and go be the vanguard."
"That McAllen…"
"Hey, that guy really ate his own younger brother, and now he's set his sights on me and Constantine too, this debt needs to be settled!"
A cold killing intent surfaced in Old Tang's eyes; relying on his early awakening he had already begun laying out his plans, counting them all in, and now he still wanted to devour Constantine's dragon bone.
This fiend must be slain!
"No rush." Old Lu finished his soup-soaked rice, wiped the corner of his mouth: "Wait until your sister awakens after a while, I still have some things to deal with these two days, so I'll trouble Su Lin to keep you company first."
"Which sister?"
"Jörmungandr."
"She hasn't awakened yet?"
"She did, then cocooned again."
"Oh."
After finishing the ramen, at the entrance of a shopping mall, Old Tang held a new-model Apple phone and twitched his brow.
"Didn't expect another generation change, and the price went up too."
"I'll pull you into the Q group." Su Lin said.
"Okay." Other worlds have QQ too? Felt like this guy was very practiced at it.
【Light God of Early Jin Dan Stage】 requests to add you as a friend.
Old Tang rubbed his eyes, made sure he wasn't seeing things, then glanced at Su Lin again, that Eastern face.
"What's wrong?" Su Lin asked.
"Is this the trend over on your side?" He pointed at the ID on the phone screen: "You like cultivation?"
"It's not a question of trend or not, I really am a Jin Dan Stage cultivator, that's correct." Su Lin denied it and then immediately said: "Want to see my flying sword?"
"No thanks…"
Old Tang still understood diversified development more or less.
【Bronze and Flame Long Wang Norton】 has joined 【A Loving Family】
【Bronze and Flame Long Wang Norton】: Hello, ohayo, ni hao, who came up with this crappy group name?
【Sovereign】: Me.
【Bronze and Flame Long Wang Norton】: Really tacky.
The half-bloods who saw the message didn't dare to interject at all, and doubts also sprouted in their hearts—hadn't Norton been successfully slain?
————————————
"This one is Luo Nade Tang, these few are the people I mentioned to you earlier."
"Zhongli."
"Miss Kelaien Mo Leidi."
"Xiao Yan."
"Hello, I'm Norton. You can call me Luo Nade Tang."
Late at night, Su Lin said he was going out for a late-night snack, and Luo Nade Tang came along.
"Pleased to meet you!" Miss Kelaien strode forward and warmly shook hands with Old Tang. "Have you eaten yet?"
"No."
"Perfect, I haven't eaten either. Want to knock back a couple of bottles together later?"
"Sure."
Every time Su Lin had seen Miss Kelaien lately, he always felt something was a bit off about the guy. How to put it—specifically, no matter what the other person said or did, Miss Kelaien always wore the look of a perfect gentleman.
Same with the group chat—sometimes he'd chime in with a few lines, things like "well said," "makes sense," "learned something."
Was he always this kind of personality? This manner of someone who'd long been mixed up in the world of human relations, with very high emotional intelligence, able to get along with anyone.
Su Lin looked at Zhongli and Xiao Yan, pointed at Miss Kelaien, and said: "Has he been extra warm to you guys lately too, compared to before?"
Hearing this, Miss Kelaien's back stiffened. Using the abilities of the Clown and the Faceless, he kept up his warm demeanor and made small talk with Old Tang.
Zhongli thought for a moment. "Come to think of it, when we went out shopping this afternoon, he paid for everything."
Xiao Yan also said: "Even though it was all funded by Lu Mingze, he still dragged us off to karaoke."
Su Lin walked up to Miss Kelaien, a teasing look in his eyes, and sized up this scholarly, harmless-looking young man.
"So you're about to advance to Saint, huh? Little Su offers his congratulations in advance."
"My lord Su Zongzhu, you're too kind. Still early, still early."
"When do you advance?"
"..." Seeing this, Miss Kelaien answered honestly: "Probably within this month. The potion's almost fully digested."
"Honestly, with the relationship between just us few, pulling a historical projection should be pretty easy for you, right?"
"I just want to raise the success rate a bit. After all, a 50% success rate and a 99% success rate still make a pretty big difference in combat." Miss Kelaien said this, then glanced at Old Tang, who was completely lost and had no idea what the two of them were talking about: "Adding a few more characters to the gacha pool on the side would be nice too."
"???"
