Seeing their companion killed before their eyes, the remaining person in black’s eyes were filled with resentment.
Instead of answering Su Nan, he mocked, “You don’t even know you’re at death’s door. Just wait, you’ll soon regret everything you’ve done today!”
What a tough talker!
Su Nan felt helpless, realizing that with his means, he couldn’t get any information from the man in black.
Since that’s the case, it’s better to leave it to the professionals.
He looked at Yang Zheng in the distance and said, “This guy is all yours, I hope you can dig up the information about the organization behind him within three days.”
Yang Zheng had regained some strength and could barely stand up.
Hearing Su Nan’s words, he immediately asked, “May I know your name, friend?”
Su Nan ignored him and turned to leave quickly.
Seeing this, Yang Zheng became anxious and shouted, “How should I give the information from the interrogation to you?”
“You don’t need to worry about that, I’ll come to find you in three days.” Su Nan didn’t look back and soon disappeared from Yang Zheng’s sight.
“Who exactly is he?” Gazing in the direction where Su Nan disappeared, Yang Zheng became even more puzzled.
Not long after, several luxury cars arrived at high speed.
Bai Mengmeng came with more than ten security guards.
“What just happened? Where are my people?” Bai Mengmeng looked at the corpse of the man in black, both anxious and puzzled.
“It’s a bit complicated. We should save people first and talk about it later,” said Yang Zheng with a complex expression.
The group quickly searched the car driven by the man in black.
Fortunately, the young girl named Qiu’er was still in the car, only temporarily unconscious and with no other problems.
The middle-aged man in a suit and the security guard who had tried to snatch Bai Mengmeng’s bracelet were also there, both unconscious after being knocked out.
On the middle-aged man’s hand, they found an unused Game Bracelet.
At this moment, Security Chief Fatty Li and two other guards ran out from somewhere. Seeing Bai Mengmeng, he exclaimed, “Miss Bai, how did you get here?”
“What happened here?” Bai Mengmeng asked.
Fatty Li didn’t dare to conceal anything, recounting what he had seen earlier. Finally, he added, “Miss Bai, it’s not that we wanted to run, but that person had the power from within the game. If we didn’t run, we would have died.”
Bai Mengmeng waved her hand, not saying anything.
Soon, the scattered security guards returned one after another.
Su Nan, who had transformed back to his original appearance, also ran back with a lingering fear.
“Brother Nan, you alright?” Wang Chong asked.
Su Nan shook his head, “I’m fine, how about you?”
“I’m okay too!” Wang Chong pretended to be relaxed. Staring at the corpse of the man in black on the ground, he exclaimed in surprise, “So that was the power from in the game? That’s amazing.”
The others were also in awe, their eyes filled with shock.
After confirming that everyone was okay, Yang Zheng took the powerless man in black away, and the others followed suit and left.
No one knew.
Shortly after they left, two men in black appeared at the place where they had fought.
One of them looked around and said after a moment, “J is dead, and K has been taken away. The person who intervened must be a martial artist who has reached at least Great Perfection in two Demon Sutras!”
“Great Perfection in two Demon Sutras? Could it be that Wang Nan, the first on the ranking list?”
“We can’t rule out that possibility, but we can’t rule out another possibility either.”
“What is it?”
“He’s like us, coming from that place!”
“Impossible! No one else could come out of that place except us.”
“Whether there is such a possibility or not, we have to deal with it as if there is. Notify the others.”
“It’s difficult. Even A and B can only exert the strength of Great Perfection in two Demon Sutras at most right now. I don’t know if they can handle that guy.”
Linjiang Hotel.
In a former luxury guest room on the top floor, now converted into an office room.
Bai Mengmeng looked at some documents in her hands and said, “Your name is Su Nan, right?”
“Yes, Miss Bai.” Su Nan nodded.
He was a little surprised, not expecting to be called by Bai Mengmeng after returning.
After pondering for a moment, he realized it was most likely related to him stopping the fake security guard from snatching the bracelet earlier.
As expected, Bai Mengmeng said, “I checked the security footage earlier. The fact that you discovered the problem at the instant the fake security guard took action and stopped him in time shows that your observation and reaction ability are both excellent.”
“Now I can give you a chance as a reward. Do you want to join my game studio?
I can give you the last game bracelet to use.”
The sooner the bracelet is used, the greater its value becomes.
After today’s events, Bai Mengmeng realized that keeping the bracelet unused not only failed to generate any value but also attracted attention from the ill-intentioned.
“Join your game studio?”
Su Nan was startled, not expecting this to be the reward.
What a joke. If he joined her studio, his game identity would surely be exposed sooner or later!
Without even thinking, he directly refused, “Sorry Miss Bai, the reward is too precious, and I’m not interested in the game.”
As he spoke, he thought of something and added, “Instead of wasting it on me, give it to someone else who can use it better. I think Wang Chong is a good choice.”
“You’re unwilling?” Bai Mengmeng was surprised, not expecting Su Nan would refuse.
After a brief silence, she asked, “Do you know what the Demon World game signifies?”
Su Nan nodded, “I know, the man in black using flames earlier was using power from within the game.”
“That’s exactly why something so precious shouldn’t be wasted on me.”
Bai Mengmeng said, “There’s no waste if you have confidence in playing the game well. I can give you the bracelet right now.”
Su Nan had no choice but to say, “Miss Bai, please consider someone else. The game is extremely difficult and not something I can handle.”
Hearing that, Bai Mengmeng felt a little disappointed. Initially, she saw great potential in Su Nan’s keen observation and quick reactions.
Now it seemed that Su Nan lacked something more crucial.
Self-confidence!
If he didn’t have the confidence to rise in the game, then he was destined not to be able to play it well.
“You don’t need to refuse right away. Go back and think it over, and give me your answer before you’re off work today.”
Su Nan hesitated for a moment, but decided to give Bai Mengmeng some face and nodded, “Alright.”
After leaving Bai Mengmeng’s office and coming downstairs, Wang Chong immediately asked curiously, “What did Miss Bai say to you?”
Su Nan shook his head, “Nothing much, just asking about what happened today.”
He didn’t plan on telling Wang Chong about the bracelet.
If Wang Chong knew he had refused Bai Mengmeng’s invitation, he would undoubtedly try to get the bracelet for him, which was something he did not want to see.
Today’s events caused quite a stir in the hotel.
Before long, numerous reporters had even come for interviews.
But all these things had nothing to do with Su Nan anymore.
At 8:30 pm.
Returning home, Su Nan logged into the game at the first opportunity.
Although he had completed all the daily tasks for today, the threat of the Wolf Demon still remained.
He had to find a way to solve this problem..
