Chapter 203: The Destitute Bandits

~7 min read 1,349 words

Returning to the Tricycle, Zhu Zhiquan took charge of driving the Tricycle back onto the road. In the carriage, Zhao Yuxin asked him, "Ajiu, do you want to go back home for a visit?"

Zhu Zhiquan, having just started the Tricycle, looked up and closed his eyes. Only after a long while did he reply, "Forget it, my home is too far from here, so I won't go back."

Zhao Yuxin: "You didn't even ask where we are, so how do you know if it's far or not?"

Zhu Zhiquan merely lowered his head and gave a bitter smile, not answering Zhao Yuxin's words, while Zhao Yuxin continued, "Ajiu, although our parents can't perceive us due to the system's influence, I still feel that we really ought to go and see them."

Zhu Zhiquan remained silent, simply driving the Tricycle onto the highway. Behind him, Zhao Yuxin tried to persuade him again to go back and see his parents, but Zhu Zhiquan had no reaction at all, and in the end, Zhao Yuxin had no choice but to give up.

Along the way, because the surrounding people could not see them or their vehicle, multiple traffic accidents occurred.

To prevent someone from crashing into them again, Zhao Yuxin suggested, "Ajiu, let's go to the suburbs or the countryside; it really doesn't feel good to keep getting rear-ended by others."

"If we go to a place with fewer people, not only will we not have to worry about being hit by cars, but we can also find a place to relax."

Zhu Zhiquan was very much in agreement with this and immediately asked, "Do you know how to get to the countryside?"

Zhao Yuxin: "I don't know, but we can find a way to get a mobile phone and a SIM card, and then we can turn on the navigation to head toward a place with fewer people."

Zhu Zhiquan expressed deep agreement with this, and afterward, they found a random mobile phone shop, "borrowed" a phone and a SIM card from inside, and headed toward the nearest countryside.

On the way, Zhao Yuxin talked about her talents: "Ajiu, let me tell you~ I upgraded my Bat Wing Ear once yesterday. Now my ears can not only hear sound waves from three kilometers away, but they are also not as afraid of noise!"

"And then, my Protective Coloration talent has also been upgraded. Now I can create protective colors anytime and anywhere, and I can even take a piece of my own flesh and cover it on someone else's head to help with camouflage! How about that? Does this talent count as a divine skill?"

Zhu Zhiquan nodded lightly, focusing on following the navigation to a sparsely populated area. Zhao Yuxin continued to talk a great deal, though most of it was just daily life from when she lived in this city.

Just then, Zhu Zhiquan saw a tech-style tricycle parked on the side of the road ahead of them, with an anti-aircraft machine gun mounted on it; this was clearly a group of players' tricycle.

Originally, Zhu Zhiquan wanted to trade a few moves with the players in front, but thinking that Zhao Yuxin would definitely scold him if he fought with others recklessly, he suppressed the thought.

Then he scanned left and right, and after confirming there were no other vehicles, he immediately steered the Tricycle to stay as far away from the car in front as possible.

Inside the tricycle in front, the two players saw Zhu Zhiquan's Tricycle and didn't want to bother with them, intending to just let them pass.

But when Zhu Zhiquan drove the Tricycle past their vehicle, one of the burly players saw Zhu Zhiquan's face and immediately felt it looked familiar.

Soon, the burly player thought of Zhao Yuxin's "stocking up" situation from yesterday, and an evil idea arose in his mind; he immediately said to his teammate, "You fat pig, guess what I just saw."

His teammate was a bloated, big fat man. Hearing his teammate's words, the fat man put down the potato chips in his hand and asked curiously, "Stop talking in riddles, tell me!"

The burly player immediately said, "Remember those two people who were stocking up in front of the Vending Machine yesterday? I just saw one of them driving a tricycle and passing right in front of us!"

"What!"

"Shh~" The burly player secretly watched Zhu Zhiquan's Tricycle again, and after confirming their Tricycle was still driving forward, he continued, "Now I'm in charge of opening fire, let's try to scrap their Tricycle in one go..."

The fat player chimed in, "And I'll be in charge of taking them out in one wave before they can react; that way we'll make a killing!"

At this moment, the two of them locked eyes, their eyes revealing a desire for wealth.

Boom!

A water jet pierced through their Tricycle, and the fat man gasped for air with lingering fear, because that water jet had almost hit him just now.

After he calmed his mood, he turned his head to see his teammate already slumped over the handlebars, with a large hole in his chest.

"Ah~"

The fat man screamed, wanting to escape, but as soon as he opened the car door, he saw Zhu Zhiquan standing there holding a sword, one hand reaching out as if to open the door.

"No..."

Swish~

The fat man felt his body go light, and he collapsed into the carriage with a thud, beginning to turn into specks of white light and slowly dissipate.

His teammate and the tricycle also dissipated into specks of white light after he died, leaving behind a large amount of supplies and the blueprints they had collected.

"Congratulations on defeating two players and gaining five hundred points; please keep up the good work." The system announcement rang out, but Zhu Zhiquan didn't pay it any mind, simply striding toward the dropped supplies.

Zhu Zhiquan didn't even look at those basic supplies, picking up the dropped blueprints to flip through them.

But unfortunately, the dropped blueprints were basically furniture blueprints, and they were all gray-quality chairs; perhaps the biggest difference between these blueprints was their appearance.

In a pile of blueprints, there were only two weapon blueprints, and they were only white quality! This made Zhu Zhiquan even less interested.

Zhao Yuxin came bouncing over to Zhu Zhiquan's side and leaned her face close to his ear, asking, "Is there anything good?"

"Only the furniture blueprints are useful." Saying this, Zhu Zhiquan learned the blueprints, enriching their crafting interface.

In the driver's seat, Xuebao drove the Tricycle to the two of them, making it convenient to move the supplies onto the vehicle.

"So poor, there's nothing good at all." After taking some food, Zhao Yuxin jumped onto the Tricycle carriage and turned to shout at Zhu Zhiquan, "Ajiu, hurry up and get on, it's time to go!"

Hearing Zhao Yuxin's call, Zhu Zhiquan tossed the remaining furniture blueprints aside and jumped onto the Tricycle carriage.

Just as Xuebao was about to step on the gas, a wild duck crashed into their vehicle and died.

Seeing the wild duck die on the vehicle, Zhao Yuxin happily took it back into the carriage and immediately suggested, "How about we eat this duck in a little while?"

"Mm~" Xuebao was the first to make an excited sound, while simultaneously stepping on the gas to follow the navigation toward a village.

Zhu Zhiquan didn't care, walking toward a spot where talent skill cards were piled up, preparing to upgrade all his remaining talents.

"Hmph! Men!" Seeing Zhu Zhiquan dare to ignore her, Zhao Yuxin angrily dismantled the wild duck, deciding not to give him any when it was time to eat the duck later.

But after the wild duck was dismantled, Zhao Yuxin looked at the duck meat, which was only the size of a palm, along with one duck wing, and sighed helplessly, "Sigh~ If only this system weren't so stingy! It's a pity to have so little duck meat!"
