Chapter 120: Meeting an Old Acquaintance

~8 min read 1,410 words

While Zhao Yuxin was daydreaming, Zhu Zhiquan woke up from his unconscious state.

Seeing Zhu Zhiquan wake up, Zhao Yuxin immediately crouched down beside him and asked, "Ajiu, how are you?"

Zhu Zhiquan held his forehead, clearly not yet fully awake. Seeing this, Zhao Yuxin explained, "Ajiu, you were just poisoned by that green tea bitch, but I've already cured it. How about that? Am I amazing?"

As she spoke, Zhao Yuxin held her nose in the air, looking proud as she waited for Zhu Zhiquan's praise.

But Zhu Zhiquan didn't pay attention to Zhao Yuxin; instead, a miserable corpse on the ground caught his eye. Although the corpse looked like it had been blown up by something, it could still be seen that it was the body of a man.

Zhu Zhiquan stood up to observe his surroundings and discovered the plant debris Zhao Yuxin had once created on the ground. Seeing the plants beside Zhao Yuxin, Zhu Zhiquan also deduced that a great battle had taken place here before.

So Zhu Zhiquan asked, "Azhao, who did you fight with here before, and are you hurt?"

Zhao Yuxin then told him everything that had happened while Zhu Zhiquan was unconscious. Although there was a suspicion of boasting in some parts, Zhu Zhiquan did not expose her on the spot.

"In the end, that woman wanted to run away after seeing her teammate killed, but I caught up to her.

To save her life, that woman knelt before me all of a sudden, hoping I would spare her life. She said that after she left the game, she would definitely worship me like a deity!" As she spoke, Zhao Yuxin raised her head even higher.

While Zhao Yuxin was boasting, Zhu Zhiquan had been observing their hiding place. Once Zhao Yuxin finished boasting, Zhu Zhiquan suggested, "Let's go, Azhao, let's change places and be ambushers."

Hearing Zhu Zhiquan's suggestion, Zhao Yuxin finally remembered her initial plan, so she proposed, "Ajiu, is there a problem with how we're hiding? After all, we've ambushed others twice! Both times we failed! And..."

"Alright." Zhu Zhiquan took Zhao Yuxin into his arms and said with a smile, "We won't hide anymore. It's too boring to just hide in one place waiting for others to take the bait.

Let's go! Let's look around to see where other players are, and then plunder their Card Points."

Zhao Yuxin grabbed his arm, her face full of worry as she said, "How about we continue to be ambushers? After all, your health is very dangerous right now..."

Zhu Zhiquan picked Zhao Yuxin up, tossed her high into the air, and caught her steadily, asking, "How about that?"

"Hehe, put me down quickly!" Zhao Yuxin rolled her eyes at Zhu Zhiquan. "What? Is having all stats maxed out so amazing? Don't you think about whether other players have awakened Transcendence paths for their stats? And then have higher overall stats?"

Zhu Zhiquan didn't speak, but a trace of disdain flashed across his face. Zhao Yuxin continued, "Even if they haven't, your health is too low right now, so it's better if we choose a safer plan."

Looking at Zhao Yuxin's expectant eyes, Zhu Zhiquan didn't argue with her. Instead, he followed Zhao Yuxin's idea, as his own health was indeed not ideal right now.

So Zhu Zhiquan said to Zhao Yuxin, "Fine, let's change places to ambush. The signs of battle here are too obvious; let's go somewhere else to ambush others."

"Mm!" Zhao Yuxin and Zhu Zhiquan each picked up two plants and began to move to another location.

While looking for a suitable position, Zhao Yuxin used the advantage of her Bat Wing Ear to discover other players in advance and take a detour. Only when they encountered situations where they couldn't detour would they hide temporarily.

During this time, Zhu Zhiquan felt this was too cowardly and that it would be better to just charge forward and fight them. Unfortunately, he was stopped by Zhao Yuxin every time, and Zhu Zhiquan could only endure it silently.

Soon, Zhao Yuxin stopped at a dumpster and said, "Alright, Ajiu, let's hide here. This spot is just big enough for the two of us to hide inside!"

Zhu Zhiquan opened the trash lid, and the stench inside almost made him pass out again! Afterward, Zhu Zhiquan looked at her with a questioning gaze.

Zhao Yuxin brushed her hair, put the plants aside, and said, "What? Do you think it's smelly? Hehe~ I didn't expect that you, who fears nothing, would actually be afraid of a bad smell!"

Zhu Zhiquan: "……………"

Zhao Yuxin pinched her nose, waved at Zhu Zhiquan, and said, "Ajiu, look, even a girl like me isn't afraid of the stench of this dumpster, so hurry up and get in. If we keep standing outside, our ambush won't work~"

Zhu Zhiquan smiled lightly, dismissing Zhao Yuxin's words with disdain. After all, you say he's afraid of the stench of this dumpster? What a joke!

So Zhu Zhiquan placed the plants in a suitable position, stepped into the dumpster to ambush with Zhao Yuxin, and after closing the lid, Zhao Yuxin piled some trash together to ensure there was enough air for circulation.

The narrow space combined with the putrid smell made the two of them only dare to breathe through their mouths, and cold slop soaked through the soles of their shoes.

Cockroaches popped out in the dumpster from time to time to have intimate contact with them. Every time a cockroach made intimate contact with them, Zhao Yuxin would shake her body in disgust, causing a huge noise inside the dumpster.

Zhu Zhiquan advised from the side, "Azhao, why don't we change places to hide? Aren't you constantly exposing our position like this!?"

Zhao Yuxin said with a look of defiance, "No! I just decided to hide here; if we leave now, where would my face be if word got out? Let's hide a bit longer, someone will definitely come!"

Zhu Zhiquan: "…………"

The two of them squatted in the dumpster for an unknown amount of time. Zhu Zhiquan said impatiently, "Azhao, it's better if we take the initiative to attack. Maybe others have already collected enough Card Points to buy a book, and we haven't even obtained a single one!"

Zhao Yuxin explained patiently, "Aiya~ be patient. Maybe someone will come over soon, and then won't the Card Points be ours for the taking?"

Zhu Zhiquan felt the slop under his feet, and a sense of disgust crept into his heart. But looking at Zhao Yuxin's firm eyes, Zhu Zhiquan had no choice but to obediently tuck his head into the dumpster.

After a while, two players passed by the dumpster where they were hiding, and Zhao Yuxin waited for the right moment based on her Bat Wing Ear's perception of sound waves.

At this moment, one of the players was walking while panting heavily, "Huff, huff~ Damn it, why did those two bastards suddenly turn on us? Wasn't it a promised alliance? Now my Magic Power is all used up!"

The other player also panted heavily and replied, "God knows why, maybe it was for the Card Points in our hands!"

As the two passed the dumpster, the surrounding plants immediately launched an attack on them, and the two players were killed on the spot before they could even react.

Zhao Yuxin walked out of the dumpster and muttered to them, "Sorry, you two, although we have no grudges, we were forced to do this. I hope you won't hold a grudge against us because of this."

Just as Zhao Yuxin finished muttering, the system prompt sounded in their minds: "Congratulations on killing other players, you have obtained 7 Card Points. Your current Card Points are 8."

After dealing with these two players, Zhu Zhiquan prepared to go out to perform a Soul Sacrifice on them, but Zhao Yuxin suddenly pulled him back and said, "Don't rush, there are two players approaching. You'll be seen if you do that!"

Zhu Zhiquan jumped out of the dumpster with an indifferent look and extracted the two players' souls to offer as a Soul Sacrifice to hell.

Zhao Yuxin had no choice but to hide in the dumpster, ready to support Zhu Zhiquan.

But when the voices of those two players came, Zhao Yuxin's tightly furrowed brows relaxed a little.

"Hi, benefactor, what are you doing here?"
