Chapter 170 : 169-170

Seeing Qin Shiyu fall into silence, he disappeared into the darkness, his whereabouts unknown.

At the same time.

On the other side.

Not long after Luo Sheng left, Dongfang Muqing tightly hugged his waist, thoughtfully saying: “You need to be careful. That person just now, I feel he has ill intentions, and will cause you trouble sooner or later.”

“Don’t worry, I know that too. For him to talk like that, he must have some backing. He might try to get rid of me inside. I just can’t figure out where I offended him?”

Luo Sheng was also troubled.

He and Qin Shiyu didn’t even know each other, had no intersection at all, yet he was being targeted by such a person for unknown reasons.

Good things are rare, but bad things happen often.

Luo Sheng felt a sense of weariness, making him more aware that if he didn’t become stronger quickly, bad things would come one after another.

“So what will you do?” Dongfang Muqing asked curiously.

Luo Sheng thought for a moment, “I’ve already thought of a countermeasure.”

This time, he probably couldn’t rely on Su Tianchen anymore. After all, without solid evidence, it would be difficult to prove that the other party would harm him. Therefore, he had to handle this matter on his own.

On his way to enter the Mechanical City, he made a detour to the Card Building to buy a bronze full-star 【Black Mask】, spending only 900,000.

Then he entered the Mechanical City, found a hidden spot near the entrance, and started to enhance.

He fused two 【Black Mask】cards of the same level together.

Finally, he obtained a silver two-star card.

【Black Mask】

Level: Silver 2-star.

Type: Equipment.

Effect: Conceals the wearer’s aura, blocking spiritual power detection from beings up to silver 9-star level; changes shape according to the wearer’s will.

Description: Guess who I am?

Luo Sheng put on the black mask, instantly hiding his aura. This way, others wouldn’t discover his identity.

“Is this the method you mentioned?”

Dongfang Muqing looked at him puzzled. Although his aura was shielded, the connection between the card and the Card Master remained.

Luo Sheng nodded, “To avoid them, the best way is to hide oneself first, then act when the time is right. This mask can conceal my aura, they won’t be able to figure out who I am.”

Currently in the Mechanical City, there were only two types of beings: hunters and prey. Luo Sheng planned to become a hunter, operating in the shadows.

However, he had barely ridden for a while.

Suddenly, a huge mechanical mole drilled out from the ground.

The mechanical mole was like a transformer, its body full of oil pumps, rotating shafts, and mechanical arms, with a pointed drill on its head.

“Hiss hiss hiss…”

It made a very harsh sound.

Without a word, as soon as it appeared on the ground, it launched an attack on Luo Sheng.

The drill on its head spun at maximum speed, the motor making a buzzing sound. The mechanical mole’s four limbs immediately turned into wheels, speeding towards Luo Sheng for a collision.

Luo Sheng picked up Dongfang Muqing and quickly retreated to the side, avoiding its attack.

Dongfang Muqing said mercilessly: “Is this what you call acting when the time is right?”

“This is just an accident!”

Luo Sheng felt like he had been slapped in the face. He had just talked about being a hunter, but now he had become the prey of an invading creature.

He immediately summoned Alice.

As they say, when there’s trouble, rely on your wife; when there’s no trouble, ***your wife.

Alice instantly appeared before his eyes, then immediately rushed towards the mechanical mole. With her legs slightly bent, she leaped into the air, reaching a height of over 10 meters.

Faint footprints were left on the ground.

Although the mechanical mole looked very fierce, especially with the sharp drill on its head giving a sense of danger.

But it also had its weaknesses, its agility wasn’t high, especially with a large turning radius.

Alice quickly got onto its back, holding an energy gun in her hand, quickly found the mechanical mole’s core energy source, and after a few shots.

It turned into a card, falling to the ground.

Luo Sheng picked it up and took a look:

【Mechanical Mole】

Level: Bronze 8-star

Type: Mechanical-Animal

Skills:

①Hundred Transformations: Can transform into a drilling mole or a four-wheel vehicle.

②Precise Navigation: Can accurately locate whether on the ground or underground.

③Engine Drill: High-speed rotation can become a super strong offensive weapon, also used for drilling.

④Hydraulic Pump Claws: Sharp claws, rapidly vibrating through hydraulics, continuously cutting enemies.

⑤Scent Tracking: The mechanical mole has olfactory components, can lock onto targets for long-term tracking.

Description: I was born for a purpose, the mechanical mole can dig holes!

Luo Sheng had just finished reading.

The card’s enhancement information flooded into his mind, and he was surprised to find that this card could actually be fused with the bronze full-star 【Violent Motorcycle】.

“It seems this Mechanical City is a treasure trove,” Luo Sheng pondered.

He had mechanical cards like Alice, Violent Motorcycle, and Mecha in his hand.

He just lacked material cards for enhancement, and this Mechanical City happened to produce cards that could meet his needs.

“I also feel this place is familiar,” Alice nodded, agreeing with Luo Sheng’s statement, “Perhaps we can find treasures that will help me.”

“Then let’s go, we’ll quickly sweep through this place,” Luo Sheng got excited at this thought and said to Dongfang Muqing and Alice.

Dongfang Muqing watched the two get on the motorcycle and pouted, “This bike is too small, how can it fit three people?”

Luo Sheng suddenly leaned back, revealing the position of the motorcycle’s fuel tank, “You can fit right here.”

Dongfang Muqing looked at the spot suitable for a small child to sit, was stunned for a moment, then very depressedly cursed, “I’m not a little kid! I’m a grown-up!”

Alice looked at Dongfang Muqing puzzled.

She compared their heights, Dongfang Muqing seemed to be two heads shorter.

At Dongfang Muqing’s current height, even if she stood on her tiptoes, her eyes would only reach Alice’s chest level, indeed just like a big child.

Alice compared and immediately withdrew her gaze.

Dongfang Muqing’s peach-colored little lips pouted, looking at Alice’s tall figure with resentment, her hands slightly clenched into fists.

A very cute angry appearance.

“Hmph! I haven’t fully grown yet, I’ll definitely surpass you in the future!” Dongfang Muqing issued her a challenge.

Alice looked at her puzzled, finally tilting her head and asking, “You can still grow taller?”

Obviously, this question troubled her. After all, in her view, Dongfang Muqing was already considered an adult little loli, probably impossible to grow taller even with hormones.

Moreover, she had told her before that she was already a 300-year-old monster, how could she possibly grow up?

“I… of course I can!”

Dongfang Muqing was so angry she couldn’t speak. The lifespan of an Azure Phoenix is very long, even if she wanted to grow taller, it would take many years.

But she still stubbornly insisted.

Luo Sheng looked at her quarrelsome appearance speechlessly.

So he said, “Alright, come on up. When you grow up, you can sit in the back.”

“You just look down on me, hmph!” Dongfang Muqing said depressedly.

Luo Sheng rolled his eyes, then twisted the throttle, the engine roaring, looking like he was about to leave.

“Wait for me!” Seeing he was about to leave, Dongfang Muqing immediately softened, “I’ll sit on the fuel tank.”

Luo Sheng then stopped and left a space. Dongfang Muqing pouted her little pink lips, reluctantly climbed up, her face full of shyness.

After a moment, biting her clear lip, she said, “You’re poking me.”

Luo Sheng pinched her bun, saying in a very helpless tone, “Why are you sitting on the fuel tank cover yourself?”

“Oh… sorry…”

Dongfang Muqing realized her sitting posture was indeed problematic, so she moved back a bit, leaning against Luo Sheng’s body, feeling both enjoyment and shyness, her face mixed with a slight blush.

Luo Sheng then started the motorcycle and headed into the distance.

The journey was dusty, occasionally encountering two 【Mechanical Worm】, drilling out of the ground, wanting to swallow Luo Sheng in one bite.

Unfortunately, they were all destroyed by Alice.

In less than 5 minutes after coming out, they turned into bronze 8-star cards.

Silver-level Alice overwhelmingly dominated bronze-level cards.

Then the three drove north, along the way seeing many Card Masters who had become corpses. Their appearances were extremely tragic, killed by invading creatures due to their level.

Luo Sheng searched and found that their cards were basically all broken, not a single one was intact.

It could only be said that the level of the Mechanical City was too high, even the Ghost Realm and Demon Realm couldn’t compare.

As Luo Sheng was driving, Alice suddenly said, “I sense a huge city, 1,000 meters away from us.”

“Hmm?!”

Luo Sheng suddenly became interested.
