Mr. Melancholy Wants To Live A Peaceful Life

CHAPTER 82

High and mighty, Yuan Luori stepped on the Destroyer for a while, then demanded, "How many levels have you passed?" Destroyer 183, who had had the power of his System cut off, was bruised and battered. "183 levels, don't hit me anymore, don't hit me."

"183? I easily defeated a master player who passed 183 levels? Hahaha!" Yuan Luori laughed wildly. He had indeed chosen the right person to follow. Look at the outcome of following the System; over many years, he had only passed 37 levels. But firmly following in the great master clearer's footsteps, after only a few months, he could take care of a master with 183 levels!

"Who said you defeated him on your own?" The members of Lian Yufan's squad were defiant. Supporting each other, they all came up to Yuan Luori. "It was collective power. It was our energy field that broke off the source of his power in the end!"

But Luo Huai, being fair, said, "Without Yuan Luori, we would only have died at the Destroyer's hands. He gathered us together when we had been scattered, and he was the one who saw our opponent's weak point. His contributions to this victory can't go unmentioned. There's also this parrot. It was thanks to your hints that I was able to lure the Destroyer into the trap without being injured."

Hearing Luo Huai praise him, Yuan Luori tapped lightly with his feet, using Destroyer 183 as a jumping off point. He jumped lithely in front of Luo Huai. Imitating Yu Hua, he gave a restrained smile. "So you have good judgement."

The parrot flew from Luo Huai's shoulder to Yuan Luori's. It stuck up its tail feathers and raised its head. Its proud look was identical to Yuan Luori's. Luo Huai sighed slightly. "It would be a good thing if you could maintain the same chill you have when you're sniping."

The change in his manner was rather great. Luo Huai, who wasn't well acquainted with Yuan Luori, couldn't adjust to it at first. On the other hand, the members of Lian Yufan's squad, who regularly watched the livestreams, understood Yuan Luori's peculiarities. One of them said, "You should get used to it, Captain Luo. The Destroyers at Zhen Li's studio are all like this. You haven't seen him on the livestreams, looking all cold and haughty, and then kneeling whenever he's told. It's hilarious, hahaha!"

"Don't think I can't hit you just because you're wounded." Yuan Luori clenched his fist and shook it in front of the face of the squad member who was mocking him.

Luo Huai's nature was rather steady. He said without emotion, "Check whether there are any highly dangerous objects on Destroyer 183, remove his equipment, restrain him, and take him to the base to wait for Director Xiao's questioning. Also, those who are lightly injured, clean up the battlefield and call the police to seal off the scene. Request the base's internal construction team to come put up some high walls. Otherwise, there'll be no way to explain the mountain. And have a look around for passersby and nearby cars that have been affected."

When Luo Huai mentioned the cars, Yuan Luori instantly screamed. Guided by the parrot's vision, he groped his way to the taxi stopped outside the amusement park. As expected, the car had been crushed flat by a falling rock during the battle.

Remembering his promise to the taxi driver when he had snatched the car, Yuan Luori turned and went back to the Protectors. He punched Destroyer 183 and miserably said, "It's all your fault! All your fault! I can't afford that car!"

Of the money he had gotten from the talent show, Yu Hua had said he could take 10%. Just as Yuan Luori was getting to celebrate that he wouldn't need to eat instant noodles anymore and could switch to ordering takeout, he had wrecked a taxi and owed a huge sum of money. After punching 183, he lay down spreadeagled on the ground, looking like he didn't want to live anymore.

The parrot didn't understand Yuan Luori's pain. Clever as it was, it was still only a bird. It didn't understand the fascination of money. But it dimly sensed that Yuan Luori's suffering originated with Yu Hua. Remembering Yu Hua, it also suffered. So the parrot went belly up, spread its wings, and lay on the ground in the same half-dead posture as Yuan Luori.
