Chapter 97: Chapter 97: Lend a Hand

Translator: 549690339

In the real world, Hall Master Zhang had seen numerous young people who bluster boldly. But when given a knife and asked to maim another person, they piss their pants.

Therefore, seeing that Song Jian is not that old, doesn’t bear any signs of being a gang member, but rather seems like a college student, Hall Master Zhang became highly confident and believed that Song Jian did not have the guts to kill.

“Kid, if you don’t dare to kill me today, you’re my grandson. Remember to address me as ‘Old Zhang’ or ‘Grandfather Zhang’ whenever you see me!” Hall Master Zhang bellowed towards Manor Castle.

“Heh, Hall Master Zhang’s got some nerve, truly worthy of being the head honcho of River Gang, we…” President Wang hailed with a thumbs-up, admiration written all over his face.

Before President Wang could even finish his sentence, he heard two sharp whistling sounds of arrow flying.

Squelch-

The blood splattered on President Wang, who was standing next to Hall Master Zhang, and he froze in disbelief.

As people looked at Hall Master Zhang, they saw two foot-long wooden arrows, one entering his temple and passing straight through his skull, with the arrowhead protruding three inches from the other side.

The other arrow hit Hall Master Zhang’s throat, emerging from the back of his neck. Two critical hit damages of over 80 points floated above Zhang’s head.

“Cough cough-” Hall Master Zhang’s eyes filled with shock. He couldn’t believe how ruthlessly a young man in his early twenties could kill.

“If I had known…” This thought occurred to Hall Master Zhang, but consciousness quickly faded into darkness, and he could no longer feel anything.

As they watched Hall Master Zhang’s dead body lying don the ground, next to a floating loot bag, a look of fear crossed everyone’s faces.

“Holy hell, he actually dared to kill!” A loud shout brought all the people gathered at the entrance to their senses. When they looked toward the wall, they heard the creaking sound of a bowstring.

“Run-”

“Damn, the man plays dirty.-”

“Get out of the way, stop blocking the path…”

A dozen people fled like frightened rats for a distance before looking back, only to see a few roots slowly extending from the wall, curling over Hall Master Zhang’s body and emanating package.

“Damn, like master, like pet, not even sparing Old Zhang’s body, that’s ruthless…” someone murmured in astonishment.

“Old Zhang really misjudged this time. That kid’s not just an ordinary college student; he’s a skilled manipulator, a real dragon in human form. We’re in for a show in our Lianhai district…”

“River Gang is done for. With Old Zhang’s death, the deputy gang leaders, none of them are easy to deal with…”

“So now we are…”

“Let’s go, let’s not embarrass ourselves here. We all misjudged. That kid is brutal. One wrong word, and he starts a massacre…”

“No options, the weapon’s in his hand. He’ll do whatever he wants.”

A dozen of ‘big bosses’ discussed among themselves, and after a while, they dispersed. Now they no longer considered Song Jian a novice. Instead, they treated him as one of their equals.

“Phew, it seems my heart has become harder, capable of killing decisively. Who would have thought, me, decisive in killing…” Song Jian touched the Night Slayer’s pattern on his chest with a melancholy expression on his face.

“Little Cheap Brother, you were amazing! Those guys were too hateful; they deserve to be killed!” Little Purple stood at the window on the third floor of the castle, shouting excitedly.

“Enough, Ke’er, you’re a young girl, don’t keep talking about killing. I have given you and Wang Qi permission, you can enter my manor now.” Song Jian laughed.

“Really? That’s great! Haha, they’re all gone, let’s go in-”

In no time, Li Ke’er and Wang Qi arrived at Manor Castle.

“This place is so big, but it looks quite empty, there’s nothing…” Li Ke’er as she looked around while walking.

“After creating a safe house, do all the original items in the safe house disappear?” Wang Qi pondered aloud, his face sporting a thoughtful look.

“Ke’er, welcome.” Song Jian greeted her with a smile.

“Little Cheap Brother, you’re incredible, you’re my idol!” Li Ke’er excitedly jumped onto Song Jian, hugging his neck and said, “Little Cheap Brother, your tree is very powerful. Where did you get it? Can you take me to get one too?”

Song Jian laughed, put Ke’er down, and patted her head, “That tree is called Alex. Despite its good looks, it’s quite costly to keep. It’s almost drained your Little Jian Brother’s resources!”

“I don’t care, you tell me quickly, where did you get it from? I want a big tree too!” Li Ke’er coaxed, pulling on Song Jian’s hand.

“Okay, okay, I’ll tell you. Open the map, and I’ll mark it for you. Not only can you gather lots of wood there, but there’s also a monster called Treant. If you kill them, they might drop Treant Saplings. After you upgrade to a level 3 safe house, you can modify the Spirit Field. Once you have a Spirit Field, you can plant a Treant!” Song Jian marked the location on the map and explained everything to them.

“Ah, it sounds so complicated. Suddenly, I don’t want to use just one room as a safe house. I want to make the whole bar my safe house!” Li Ke’er drew a big circle with her hands as if she could encompass the entire bar like that.

“Luckily, I have some materials to spare, I’ll give them to you.” Song Jian glanced at his inventory, which contained tens of thousands of units of wood and stone materials, and transferred all of them to Li Ke’er and Wang Qi.

The two of them had fought valiantly against the monsters when they were under siege. Song Jian did not mention it, but he noticed their effort.

“Little Cheap Brother, you’re so great. I adore you! You’re the second greatest man after my dad!” Li Ke’er became so excited she was jumping up and down. Wang Qi, on the other hand, was stunned by the tens of thousands of materials, shocked beyond words.

“Brother Song, are you sure you haven’t put any money into this game?” Wang Qi, after hemming and hawing for a while, finally asked.

“Ha ha, if you find out that money can be added to this game, you must tell me!” Song Jian was amused by Wang Qi and laughed heartily.

“Little Cheap Brother, I have enough materials; I’m ready to create my safe house. Can you help me?” Li Ke’er asked while pulling on Song Jian’s sleeve.

“Song, Brother Song, I also want to create a safe house. It’s just across the street from yours…” Wang Qi said a bit bashfully.

“Alright, alright, 1 still have three hours left in this game. As long as you create it during this time, I can help!” Song Jian promptly agreed.

“That’s great! I’ll create it now…” Afraid of being slower than Wang Qi, Li Ke’er quickly ran toward the castle gate.

Song Jian and Wang Qi exchanged glances, before bursting into laughter. They then quickly followed Li Ke’er towards the outside of the manor.
