Chapter 601: Huge change in situation
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
Tiny snakes of maroon blood slithered down his skin. Sheyan faintly groaned but with a tinge of refreshing pleasure. The stinging pain of his swollen wound gradually diminished as the pus and blood drained away.
With a flick of his left wrist, the knife blade carved deep into his shoulder once again. Then with a nudge, black soybean sized bullet heads sprung out and landed ‘clink’ on the ground. Repeating this scooping technique, bullet frags sprung out consecutively until the bullet heads lodged within his back were all extracted out; where he lost much flesh along the way.
That Vietnase officer’s snipe was akin to a coiled viper’s sudden devouring! Quick, violent, deadly and abrupt! Moreover, the bullet was a special dumdum bullet and manage to even break through Sheyan’s defense. If Sheyan didn’t deal with his wounds, he probably needed 1-2 days for a full recovery. Thus, he decided to settle them fast.
Pouring a bottle of white alcohol to composedly rinse his wounds, before squeezing out all remaining blood and pus. While his wounds were being dried by the wind, it issued both a contracting and loosening sensation; signifying the formidable regenerative capabilities of a contestant was at work.
After lighting a cigarette, he pulled out a mobile phone and dialed a long distance call.
After two consecutive rings, Sheyan was greeted by a rich nasal accent and an indistinct spoken language. Even through the handphone receiver, Sheyan could guess the presently drowsy-eyes of the opposite party, along with a breath stinking of alcohol.
"Gangmudada, Kesiwa, Xibeita*." According to an earlier agreent, Sheyan spewed out three awkward sounding words he had no clue of. Nevertheless, the receiver was stunned and placed him on hold for nearly 4 minutes, before a familiar voice transmitted over.
(TL:*I translated the direct hanyu pinyin)
"Hey! What a surprise, you’d actually phone this number!"
"……oh, you know I’m not almighty. Those Vietnase apes with their dumdum bullets and automatic rifles are really a handful. Eliminating my target obviously isn’t a problem, but to wipe out his backers would be rather tacky. Cut the crap AK, will you assist ?"
"Sure, definitely! When the boss summons, so shall I appear. Isn’t there a saying of your Chinese people, sothing about stabbing one’s ribs with two blades? Say, wouldn't it be better if it wasn’t just getting rid of the fella who offended you, but his backers as well?"
"Because my family misses their hotown……without eradicating evil completely, their safety would be compromised. Right, AK, if your circumstances aren’t stable I can phone Reef. He’ll settle your visas or whatever travel essentials. Hurry and get your ass here. Right, one final thing, one of the Vietnase monkey officers was exceptionally fierce, and ruthless in execution. Did you beg him to be your master?"
I @#*&#&$!!!" Mogensha imdiately released a string of incomprehensible foul words, probably his nation’s words of impact.
"Does the world even possess such a military instructor with such caliber? You sure he isn’t a contestant?"
Sheyan carefully reflected and answered.
"He shouldn’t be. Otherwise, that fella wouldn’t naively guess that I was from the Asia branch international criminal police organization. But if he enters the nightmare realm now, I estimate his ‘Basic long-range combat’ would at least be pegged at level 5, and his innate ability would substantially lean towards the category of shooting accuracy."
Brother Black impatiently scoffed.
"Regardless how strong he is, his head would explode from my ‘da da da da’. Oh, right boss, your country upholds an extrely stringent surveillance for arms, I probably won’t be able to bring my ‘boys’ in. You can’t possibly expect to stab them with knives eh?"
Sheyan chuckled.
"Don’t worry. Though I didn’t manage to kill him, I robbed him of a suitcase of goods along with a pistol and 20 bullets within. If you fail to seize a rifle even after finishing those 20 bullets, I will directly guard your escape route."
Brother Black’s dwelling location was frequently plagued with the chaos of wars, with poor living conditions. Even their tiny airfields were simple and crude, where planes were incapable of taking off under heavy storms.
In the end, after waiting for 2-3 days, Brother Black’s location had been engulfed by a consistent downpour for the sa period, needing an additional day for the sun to finally dry the airfield.
Seeing that the 7 days checkpoint was approaching, Sheyan then pondered over the plausible contract with Zi and his party, and finally returned to the nightmare realm first.
******************************
After returning to the nightmare realm, Sheyan discovered there was a ssage for him.
The ssenger was from none other, but Demondream.
Upon eting up with Sheyan, Demondream cut to the chase and directly tendered a trade offer for three of Sheyan’s items - the divine stone ‘Odin’s Surge’, the Horcrux of the Elegant Hawksbill Turtle and that ‘ 6 Chieftain’s Hobby’.
After inquiring about Sheyan’s needs, Demondream blatantly revealed her bargaining chip.
Knowing that the trio urgently required utility points, she directly offered them that dark-gold grade shield along with 350,000 utility points and a load of dicinal products. Amongst those products were also several honorary dosages.
To Reef and Mogensha whose military rank resided in the reserve-duty realm, casually consuming those dicines traded with achievent points wouldn’t be a problem.
Honestly speaking, though accessory types of equipnt were valuably sparse, the MT was still one of the most important cores of a party where the valuation of their equipnt was sky high.
Excluding a freak like Sheyan, a shield was still an essential item for an MT. Although a 6 accessory that could boost intelligence and charm was hefty, a massive sum of 350,000 utility points could imdiately eliminate the trio’s desperate ergency. What more with the addition of dicinal replenishnts?
In the realm, regeneration products were hailed as hard currency! Because they were akin to gold or dollars in the realm, they were frequently employed as currency as well. Moreover, anyone could and would use it. Hence overall, Sheyan had received the better end of this transaction.
However, Sheyan’s expression remained solemn without displaying a trace of positivity from this transaction. Instead, he suddenly asked Demondream.
"Are you sure of this deal? Is this really Zi’s intention?"
Demondream cast an icy glance at Sheyan.
"What do you think?"
Sheyan’s eyes squinted faintly. This was an expression that frequently appeared at the most crucial of tis. For example, when facing that Uruk-hai Lurtz back in the Lord of the Rings World, or Scarface Harry in the Pirates of the Caribbean World, or that redoubtable Little Lord Fokke…Sheyan abruptly smiled.
"Fine then, I am truly expecting the next nightmare world."
Demondream’s eyes were filled with pity as she stared at Sheyan before she mocked.
"I really can’t tell where your ridiculous confidence cos from."
Sheyan laughed heartily and replied.
"It is pointless telling others about that."
At this mont, both Reef and Mogensha also entered the realm. Upon hearing their transaction, they couldn’t help but frown.
Such an advantageous deal to them wasn’t actually a good thing. It undoubtedly ant that Zi and her Illu-union weren’t planning to owe anything to the trio.
From another perspective, it represented the Illu-union deciding to terminate their cooperation with the trio. Their original path towards an alliance to defy the returning tals Professor had now dissolved.
This also implied that the Illu-union and Zeus’s Glory Party had surely reached an agreent, possibly a temporary peace treaty between both parties.
With their current state, the wings of Sheyan’s party Ace hadn’t fully developed yet. They definitely couldn’t contest against the revived tals Professor and her backing, Zeus. In this instance, Sheyan could capture the thought processes of the Illu-union.
It was without a question that the tals Professor’s group possessed a contestant that could track the world entry of a particular individual.
Such a perverted ability definitely had a limited usage. If their next nightmare world entry was for the sake of chasing down and killing Sheyan, then being unable to attend to other things simultaneously, they wouldn’t be able to track the Illu-union for the ti being. When the tals Professor and her gang dealt with Sheyan and buddies, most likely, the cooldown of that tracking ability would still be in effect.
If the Illu-union tossed out party Ace as bait, they could minimally earn 2-3 worlds of breathing space. During this phase, they would allow their cores to rapidly mature with the newly acquired objects, the ‘Odin’s Surge’ divine stone, the Elegant Hawksbill Turtle’s Horcrux and the ‘ 6 Chieftain’s Hobby’. Naturally, they would be able to swiftly recover and supersede their previous optimate state.
"However……with your actions, aren’t you afraid of smashing your own feet while shifting away from a boulder?" such a notion flashed past Sheyan’s mind as his lips curled into a sneer.
Soon after, in lieu that both Reef and Brother Black had returned to the realm, Sheyan imdiately contacted them.
"Lads, it seems there’s a tiny wee trouble that awaits us…"
Party Ace then experienced a relatively calm period of stay in the realm, reminiscent of the calm before a storm; clouds pregnant with sultriness, anxiousness, irritableness and frantic.
Yet the trio appeared free of worries, as they proceeded to temper their basic abilities. Their temporary economic upturn prompted the trio to rapidly burn their money with shopping and others.
Ti swiftly elapsed… During this ti, Sheyan unexpectedly received a realm ssage from Zi. Instead, the contents of that ssage was a blank space.
Evidently, a blank space could express many things.
It could be pointing towards her complicated situation that couldn’t be described with words, or could just be an accidental blank space, or that she had no other words for him……its aning was up to his own interpretation.
