Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

Its skin had now healed, and the iron filings and nails were gone.

"What kind of junk did you stuff into that lousy hat of yours? I almost got bitten to death."

The oxen and horses complained.

"Of course! If it weren't for them, would you have recovered so quickly?"

The white-feathered pheasant rolled its eyes at it.

Give me back my hat.

It said to Liu Zheng.

"Oh."

Liu Zheng put the hat on the white-feathered chicken's comb.

"Following a big shot like that will get you nowhere. Come to the kitchen with me, and I guarantee you'll be living the high life."

The white-feathered chicken looked at him and said.

"In this world, who can you follow for a future? Take you, for example. Do you even know when you'll die?"

He smiled and said.

"Every extra day you live is a bonus. But you're not wrong either."

The white-feathered chicken nodded and strode out of the lounge.

"Tsk tsk tsk, even Britain can't put on airs like this. If you didn't know better, you'd think it was a restaurant owner."

The cattle and horses were muttering to themselves.

"Boss, the door's already closed, so you're only speaking now. It can't hear you anymore."

"I love talking about prostitutes behind their backs, so what?"

The ox and horse rolled their eyes.

"Okay, okay, continue."

Liu Zheng shrugged and sat back down on his small stool.

“Actually, Napoleon was right. You have a much brighter future following him than following me.”

"Ox and horse suddenly said."

"Don't let its arrogant demeanor fool you, it's actually quite good to its subordinates. With your intelligence, you won't make mistakes easily."

"And then you just spend every day holed up in the kitchen, battling wits with it?"

Liu Zheng interrupted it.

"It's as if the lounge is bigger than the kitchen."

Cattle and horses are making fun of themselves.

"At least I can go out for some fresh air while I'm delivering food. Besides, knowing my personality, how long do you think I can hold out, boss?"

The ox and horse fell silent; they knew what Liu Zheng meant.

"I can't be bothered with you. Go ahead and deliver food if you like. Anyway, once I run away, you'll be the boss yourself."

The cattle and horses lay back on the haystack and then dug out the Sudoku magazine.

Three seconds later, thunderous snoring began.

"The hypnotic effect is far too strong."

Liu Zheng shook his head.

However, the ox and horse's movements also stirred up his drowsiness.

Liu Zheng closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.

In his dream, he kept chopping the neck of a white-feathered chicken, gnawing on each piece he chopped off.

"Wake up, your order has arrived."

The series of slaps from the ox and horse woke Liu Zheng up.

The new eyes are great; he didn't feel any dryness at all after opening them.

"What's wrong?"

Liu Zheng was still a little dazed after waking up.

"Your father-in-law's order has arrived."

Niu Ma tossed the takeout order to him.

"Meal: One serving of Ants Climbing a Tree"

Address: Sewer Fish Farm.

"Orderer: Fisherman"

Time Limit: 12 hours

"You've really found a powerful backer."

The ox and horse said enviously.

Based on these two 12-hour delivery orders alone, the fisherman's net worth wouldn't be much less than Mr. Li's.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that he was so devoted to his daughter that he spent a fortune.

Even so, if Liu Zheng could become a son-in-law, he could soar to great heights.

"Dude, are you serious?"

Liu Zheng said calmly.

The fisherman only used him as a tool. If he really considered him a son-in-law, then he would be the next Huang Mao.

But Nightingale is a second-generation heir, so the fisherman can only try to poach him.

As for someone like Liu Zheng, who has neither strength nor background, the fisherman would probably choose to kill him outright.

"Tch, boring. You're sometimes crazy, and sometimes so rational it's uninteresting."

The ox and horse rolled their eyes and went back to lie down in their haystacks.

Liu Zheng smiled, slung his delivery box over his shoulder, and headed out, only to be stopped by the oxen and horses.

"Hey, the staff meal hasn't been picked up yet."

"I almost forgot about that."

He opened the cabinet and took out two staff meals and two bottles of drinks.

The staff meals are excellent, nothing special.

After eating, Strength +1, Perception +1.

The drinks consisted of a can of snake wine and a bottle of cola.

Snake wine is of excellent quality and can increase toxin resistance after consumption, but there is a high probability of developing a "moderate poisoning" state and a low probability of developing a "severe poisoning" state.

Liu Zheng glanced at the small snake inside that was flicking its tongue at him, and decided that he should not drink it for now.

As for the cola, that's interesting. Smart people have probably already guessed it: it's another bottle of "Hell Rock Cola".

He held the Coke can, his expression complex.

This thing granted him extraordinary abilities, but it also turned him into a non-human being and gave him a hidden danger that could explode at any time: "Gospel".

But overall, he benefited greatly.

Moreover, this beverage might have a miraculous effect at any time, so Liu Zheng put it away and drank it when needed.

"gone."

He left the lounge, but this time Ghost Hand wasn't waiting for him outside.

The food was packed into the delivery box without any error message.

So Liu Zheng picked up his delivery box and walked into the delivery lane.

He exited the passage and headed straight for Rose Street.

From a distance, the plane tree still looks the same; it seems it's still struggling to evolve into either a tree demon or a phoenix.

Rationally speaking, Liu Zheng definitely hoped it would evolve into a tree spirit.

In this way, the London plane tree would still be subject to the annual ring contract, and it would not lose a rare trading partner.

On a sentimental level, he actually hopes that the London plane tree can evolve into a phoenix.

After all, being able to fly is just so cool.

Of course, it was all the plane tree's own choice.

"Hey, Mr. Tree, it's been a long time."

Liu Zheng greeted him.

"Even by human standards, we can't say we haven't seen each other for a long time, let alone too frequently."

The French plane tree complained.

In just a few days, it met Liu Zheng more times than it had met anyone else in the past eighteen years.

"It's just a polite remark, don't take it too seriously. I brought you something."

Liu Zheng took out all the drinks except for the cola and put them on the ground.

"One Step Snake Wine!"

The plane trees in London are shining brightly.

As a connoisseur of alcohol, I consider the One-Step Snake Wine a rare and precious delicacy.

"Tell me, what do you want to exchange?"

It asked impatiently.

Is there anything that can increase luck?

Liu Zheng thought for a moment and then said.

There's still some time before the Black Koi's transformation effect takes effect. The sewers are so dangerous, so we should try to boost our luck stat if we can.

"Yes, but collectibles related to luck are all expensive, and you can't afford to exchange what you have."

"It's a plane tree," said the French plane tree.

"It doesn't have to be permanent, just temporary is fine."

he said quickly.

"That's fine."

The plane tree nodded, and suddenly stretched out two hands, digging them into the black soil and turning them over and over.

"Wouldn't it be more convenient to use tree roots to find it?"

Liu Zheng asked curiously.

"Can't I get used to it in advance?"

The plane tree said irritably.

"You've decided to evolve into a tree spirit?"

He understood the hidden meaning in De Lego's words.

Chapter 116 Liu Zheng is actually a rabbit-eared girl?

"Ah."

The plane tree responded with a muffled sound.

"why?"

"Because you can't become a phoenix. Why would you even ask that? You idiot human."
