Chapter 265: Mourning Dog
In the outer space of Era Store, the Second Silently woke up fully recovered from the injury.
Second touched his slightly aching head, recalled what had just happened, jolted awake, surveyed the surroundings, and only cald down when he didn’t see Zhang Mu’s figure.
“Where am I? I’m not dead? Did that Zhang Mu spare ?”
The Second muttered to himself, feeling unlikely, as he had just witnessed Zhang Mu rcilessly kill several leaders of the Alliance, how could he, the mastermind behind it all, survive?
Furthermore, he found no injuries on himself now, not even the scorching sensation from earlier when an unknown energy forcibly suppressed his fire ability into his body.
And now, it all disappeared completely, as if everything that just happened was nothing but a dream.
He realized he was on the outskirts of Era Store, stood up suddenly, surveyed the surroundings, confird his location, and believed that what had just happened was definitely more than just a very realistic dream.
But, where is Zhang Mu?
He looked up at the location indicated by the Era rchant Ring and stared at the shimring layers of space just within reach, his expression complex.
Is that Zhang Mu at Era Store right now?
Whether he’s there or not, we’ll know once we try.
Just as the second mate reached out towards Era Store’s location, the spatial layers where Era Store resided suddenly trembled, causing his hand to recoil slightly from where he had touched.
Era Store rejected him.
At the sa ti, a sudden chanical system voice sounded, enunciating clearly.
“No. 023, an Era Sub-rchant is currently conducting a transaction in front, please wait.”
Is he really inside?
Can only wait for him to co out and admit his mistake with his head down? I refuse to accept it!
Just as he was hesitating about what to do next, the system’s next words felt like a bucket of cold water being poured over him, freezing him from head to toe, leaving him stunned in disbelief.
“No. 023, we are currently checking your position in the Era Store. You are the fifth in line as an Era Sub-rchant. There are no other Era Sub-rchants around you. You will be the next one to engage in era trading. Please stay prepared to enter the Era Store at any ti.”
He couldn’t make out the following words from the system’s voice anymore, those four words hit his mind like a bolt from the blue.
Fifth in line?
When did I beco the fifth in line?
This must be a mistake, right?
Refusing to believe it, he tried touching the location of the Era Store again, but the result was the sa.
“No. 023, we are currently checking your position in the Era Store. You are the fifth in line as an Era Sub-rchant. There are no other Era Sub-rchants around you. You will be the next one to engage in era trading. Please stay prepared to enter the Era Store at any ti.”
The third ti, the fourth ti, many more tis, no matter how hard Second tried, the reply was always the sa.
Fifth place, fifth place, really, it’s fifth place.
It started with a touch, then he forcefully stepped in, as he pushed harder, Era Store’s resistance grew stronger. Until the last ti, Second pushed too hard and was flung several ters away, sitting despairingly on the cold ground, feeling defeated.
Looking towards the empty front, Second couldn’t accept reality and roared towards where Era Store was located.
“Why am I in fifth place, No. 37, explain it to , what did I do wrong?”
Yet, the empty streets echoed with no response, only his own voice repeating in the silent People’s Square.
Suddenly, as though realizing sothing, Second’s vacant eyes gradually filled with rage, incoherently started speaking.
“It’s Zhang Mu, it’s him, it must be him. It’s Zhang Mu, Zhang Mu!”
Sotis laughing wildly, sotis convulsing with rage, fortunately due to Era Store, there were no residents here, or they would be terrified by his current mad appearance.
“Why didn’t you kill ?”
“If you’re brave, just kill . Why use such despicable thods to torture ?”
He went crazy for a while, his throat hoarse from shouting, but he was the only one watching his own acting.
He slowly stood up, silent, with a terrifying look in his eyes, but he forcefully suppressed it himself, glanced in the direction of Era Store, and then walked away.
When Zhang Mu ca out of Era Store, he didn’t find any trace of Second, he must have left. But if Wang Liang acted quickly, there would be no place for him in Luo Yang City now.
Zhang Mu shook his head, no longer thinking or having any thoughts. This person in the Era Sub-rchant section posed no threat to him.
Even from an evolver’s perspective, although No. 37 had healed the injuries caused by his fire toxin just now, it was unlikely that Second’s awakening ability, even if it grew, would pose any threat to Zhang Mu.
Without the huge advantage of being the second in the Era Sub-rchant, this person’s fairly ordinary awakening ability would likely not stand out, and he would only be left farther behind by Zhang Mu.
If it weren’t for the relationship with Era Sub-rchant in the sa city, even if he were the Era Sub-rchant of a different city, Zhang Mu would not consider giving him a way out.
Deliberately torturing soone without any deep hatred, Zhang Mu wasn’t that bored yet to kill directly. This approach is necessary, and he won’t get any pleasure from it.
Of course, the current second place is like a defeated dog, with no hope of turning the situation around without special circumstances.
