Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

He threw away the empty can and walked out of office 403, dripping blood all the way.

Wang Manni watched him leave, then ripped the paper bag off her head.

Beneath the paper bag, there was nothing.

She fumbled around and placed the takeout bag around her neck.

Crimson irises bloomed on her newly grown face.

Wang Manni's hands had somehow turned into two joints.

-

"I am back."

Liu Zheng walked into the lounge.

"Are you out of your mind? Buying so much coffee and cake almost killed me."

The cattle and horses cursed at him as soon as they saw him.

"It's all because you told me to send some to the kitchen staff as well. If I had sent them all, I would have offended them."

Liu Zheng defended himself.

"You certainly have a lot of tricks up your sleeve. *hiccup*"

The ox and horse let out a loud burp.

"Did you eat the delivery guy from That Unlucky Coffee?"

He said speechlessly.

"Nonsense, why not eat what's offered to you? I didn't expect the employees at Bad Luck Coffee to be so good at cooking, just as good as their coffee."

The ox and horse said with beaming smiles.

"Do you know that you ate 1200 of my money with just one bite of your mouth?"

Liu Zheng squinted and said.

"We've already paid, it would be a waste not to eat it."

The ox and horse said this with a straight face.

"Besides, I'm not eating your food for free. Here you go."

It tossed Liu Zheng a boning knife.

He caught it steadily and then looked at the item description.

Name: Picky

Type: Equipment

Quality: Excellent

"Effect: When hitting a target, it deals additional damage based on the target's level as food."

"Note: It's a real shame that such a good back isn't made into tenderloin."

"Can it be taken out of the instance: Yes"

The blade was about four fingers long, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, with a bright white edge that stung Liu Zheng's eyes.

"Where did you get it?"

he asked.

"Didn't you want to take sick leave? I borrowed this knife from Napoleon for you to use for self-defense."

"Take good care of it. If you lose it, just die out there. Otherwise, Napoleon will still kill you when you get back. Hiccup~"

The cow and horse let out another burp, it seemed that the unfortunate coffee deliveryman really enjoyed it.

"Thanks. By the way, could you let me go to the kitchen again?"

After putting away the boning knife, Liu Zheng asked.

"What do you want to do?"

The cattle and horses became alert.

Chapter 63 How to fish without a fishing rod

"I want to get something."

Liu said frankly.

"You're addicted to stealing, aren't you? No way."

The cattle and horses refused quite directly.

"Do you think the kitchen is your home, where you can go and take whatever you want?"

"If you get caught again, it's a small matter if you die, but it's a big deal if I get blacklisted by Napoleon."

It grumbled and mumbled.

"Aren't you going to run away anyway? Why would you care about being blacklisted?"

"I haven't run away yet, have I? Besides, it's not like I can't take on restaurant jobs even if I don't work in a restaurant. With my relationship with Napoleon, smuggling is a piece of cake."

The oxen and horses were drooling as they fantasized about counting piles of money.

"You think they'd agree to your challenge to the Yuan Shen Cult?"

"They have no choice but to agree. When Oink and I join forces, what can a small, shabby sect do to us?"

The ox and horse snorted coldly.

"Can Oink be sold on the black market?"

"Theoretically it's not possible, but it's not like there's no way."

"The ox and horse said."

"The cost must be high, right?"

"At least two years of profit."

The cow and horse's mouths twitched.

This is still based on the premise that it can make money every time.

However, given its capabilities and the connections it has built up as a delivery driver, the possibility of it losing money is not high.

“I have a way to avoid Oink’s involvement.”

Liu Zheng rolled his eyes and said.

"Oh? Tell me."

The ox and horse asked with great interest.

"Partnering with De Lego."

He said.

"That tree? No, no."

The oxen and horses shook their heads frantically.

"I'd be lucky if I didn't burn it down, let alone cooperate with it. No way."

"The Yuanshen Cult betrayed you, and you still refrained from retaliating. Dai Lego only beat you up, and you were the one who sold them counterfeit alcohol first. What deep-seated grudge could there be?"

Liu Zheng advised.

"The Round God Cult was helping Napoleon, and I had to go to that tree myself to cooperate; that would have been too embarrassing."

The ox and horse muttered.

"Money brings prestige. This time when I delivered food to an office building, the security guard swiped my card for me, and I got all the orders from the customer. Even their assistant thanked me. How prestigious is that?"

"Why? Because I threw money at them."

"Have you forgotten how we went to the casino and almost got swindled out of all our money by that devil?"

"Don't you want to make a lot of money peacefully and steadily?"

Liu Zheng bombarded Niu Ma with questions, finally managing to get him to talk.

"Even if I were willing to cooperate with that tree, it wouldn't be of much help, would it?"

"The people of the Round God Cult aren't stupid; they wouldn't go into its territory."

"The ox and horse said."

"That's why I went to the kitchen to get something."

Since the conversation had come to this point, he decided to tell the whole story.

"There might be a wood sprite hidden in the kitchen. Delegos needs the acorns from her to evolve and expand his range to several blocks around here."

"We'll use that to lure the Yuan Shen sect members there and wipe them out in one fell swoop."

Liu Zheng said.

This way, he not only achieved a deal with the French plane trees, but also eliminated competitors for Niu Ma, and got rid of potential enemies for himself.

This is a case of killing three birds with one stone.

After listening to his words, Niu Ma pondered for a long time, and then suddenly stood up.

"You wait here, I'll go ask."

It left after saying just one sentence.

About half an hour later, the cattle and horses returned.

"Napoleon said that if you want acorns, you have to trade them for something else."

it said.

"what?"

"A giant-mouthed whale."

"A whale? Isn't Napoleon giving me too much credit?"

Liu Zheng looked completely bewildered.

Although he did have a relationship with the Little Mermaid, whether she acknowledged it or not is another matter.

Even if the Little Mermaid were willing to help, he couldn't drag her back.

Even orcas weigh several tons, let alone "giant" beaked whales.

"What's the panic? It's just a name, it's not a real whale."

"The ox and horse said."

"what is that?"

"It's a type of catfish, found in many places. But Napoleon specifically requested the ones from the sewers."

The cattle and horses returned.

"What?"

"The water in the sewers is nourishing. All the wastewater in the city has to go through the sewers first, and it's full of the best parts."

The ox and horse licked their lips.

"Ah~"

Liu Zheng showed a disgusted expression.

"You don't know anything. Let me ask you, what's the next line after 'The rich rely on technology'?"

The ox and the horse asked.

"Do the poor rely on mutation?"

"That's right. The sewers lack everything except things that can mutate you. Take a bath in the water, and you might come out as a hermit shrimp."
