Chapter 17: Locals
Station 6108 served a population of 10 million, and S-class geniuses were one in ten thousand.
Over the past few days, there were a few hundred to a thousand geniuses at Station 6108 who had reached level 10.
Many of them couldn’t wait to challenge the dungeon.
“Oh my god, are you really going to challenge the dungeon dressed like that?”
A blond, white young man saw Li Chengfeng and Shu Fuyao’s attire and couldn’t help but laugh.
He spoke very fluent Chinese.
The only official language of the human race on Mu Wang Star was Chinese. It was evident that this young man was likely a native of Mu Wang Star. He had specifically co to the newbie area to mingle and find a sense of superiority.
The two of them ignored him and didn’t stop walking.
The young man sized up Shu Fuyao and was imdiately stunned by her impeccable beauty. He jogged up and blocked her path, saying:
“This young lady is so beautiful. Can I be friends with you?”
Shu Fuyao felt annoyed by his greasy smile and coldly replied:
“No, you can’t!”
The blond young man was taken aback.
The two of them walked around him.
He blocked their path again:
“Hey, don’t go, young lady. I’m telling you, dressed like that, you definitely won’t be able to clear the dungeon. Going in will just be sending yourself to death.”
“This has nothing to do with you.”
“Of course it does. I can’t bear to see such a beautiful young lady get killed. Actually, I’m a local of Mu Wang Star. I happen to have a set of excellent equipnt and weapons. How about you leave your team and join mine? I guarantee we can clear the dungeon.”
Li Chengfeng felt that if he didn’t step in, this guy would keep pestering them.
Besides, trying to poach his teammate right in front of him? How could he tolerate that?
He pulled Shu Fuyao behind him and shouted at the blond young man:
“Get lost!”
Shu Fuyao’s lips curved slightly. She thought Li Chengfeng wasn’t going to stand up for her.
The young man squinted his eyes, looking down on Li Chengfeng, and sneered:
“Hmph! I’m a native of Mu Wang Star. Where do you, a country bumpkin, get the right to tell to get lost?”
Li Chengfeng checked the information.
So of the young man’s information was public:
Zhang Jieke.
Level 11.
Not worth fearing.
“I just told you to get lost, so what?”
“You…”
Zhang Jieke pointed at Li Chengfeng. He didn’t expect a newbie to be so arrogant. Didn’t he understand the principle that a strong dragon can’t suppress a local snake?
However, fighting was prohibited within the station, so Zhang Jieke couldn’t teach the newbie a lesson.
He could only use his words:
“Hmph, with your poor appearance, you still want to challenge the dungeon. Without a decent set of armor and weapons, you’ll be dead in less than half an hour.”
Li Chengfeng didn’t let himself get provoked and calmly said:
“Your Chinese is pretty good. Do you know the saying ‘a dog looks down on people’?”
Zhang Jieke’s face turned livid.
He had been humiliated by a newbie.
“You really think highly of yourself. What I did was called accurate judgnt.”
“Judgnt that I can’t clear the dungeon?”
“Yes.”
“How about we make a bet!”
“Bet on what?”
“If we can clear the dungeon, your set of high-quality armor will be mine.”
This local was too arrogant, and Li Chengfeng wanted to find a way to curb his arrogance and to let him know what pain was.
However, Li Chengfeng also knew that fighting was prohibited within the station. This was an absolutely safe zone.
High-quality armor was much more expensive and better than ordinary armor.
Zhang Jieke still seriously considered it.
The Blue Star, where the newbies ca from, had no spiritual energy and couldn’t cultivate. Even if these newbies had recently started cultivating, it was only their internal energy that had improved.
Clearing a dungeon relied on martial skills, not internal energy, and without proper martial skills, it was absolutely impossible to pass.
However, he wouldn’t let Li Chengfeng take advantage of him either.
“Alright, if you don’t clear it, your account balance will all be mine.”
As Zhang Jieke spoke, he couldn’t help but laugh.
Newbies without money were as good as dead.
Draining their money dry, at that point, wouldn’t they have to obediently kneel and beg for rcy, and follow orders?
Li Chengfeng thought for a mont; the rent was paid for a month.
Even if they didn’t clear the dungeon, they wouldn’t have to worry about being evicted and eliminated for now.
The bet was feasible.
However, the bet also included Shu Fuyao’s money.
So Li Chengfeng still sought her opinion:
“Shall I make the decision?”
Shu Fuyao hesitated for a mont, but chose to trust Li Chengfeng and nodded with a hum.
Li Chengfeng then spent 100 yuan to purchase a contract from the system.
A verbal bet could be reneged on, but once a contract was signed, it couldn’t be undone. Once the contract conditions were t, the station system could be required to enforce the contract terms.
The 100 yuan contract had a validity of 100 hours.
That was enough ti.
Right then, the two of them wrote down the terms and signed the contract.
Zhang Jieke wiped his golden short hair, looking smug:
“Go and et your doom. I’ll wait here for you to co out. Miss, if it gets too tough, you better quit early. Dying is very painful.”
Neither of them paid him any attention and walked into the teleportation portal.
