these days the sky was turbulent, the gloomy clouds surfed the sky endlessly and the winds like a ghost howling spread through the trees as if the atmosphere was a welcome change of pace to an incoming disaster.
"I really don't get it, shouldn't we run away?", standing next to our manor's pound I ask brother who unexpectedly decided to stay and not run
Li Xiang shakes his head," the enemy is ancient and unfathomable but also treacherous, he told us that he'll be coming in 7 days which is suspicious, if my guess is right he might arrive in 5 days or less "
"and the only reason I can think of is that he's a precautious character or might have learned a lesson in the past so decided not to look down on mortals?! "
"either way, we have nowhere to escape once we decide to escape, the creatures that attacked you before will follow us like a tracker.... ", Li Xiang's kept explains the in and outs of his theory till his last sentence was cut short by Erha,
"no need to say, bring me as much energy resources and I'll purchase as many weapons, tickets, talismans, and others ", the chin looked up and the person looked like a peacock full of confidence, Li was amused so he tapped him in his shoulder like a soldier untrusting an important mission,
"I'll leave supplying the army to you then, for me, I'll take care of the city security "
the city ushered then in fast development to the extreme, millions of white cyborgs roaming the streets, the nearby areas and even traveling faraway, each doing its task, some group will bring nuclear zombie stones, others will help build the city's shield, some will inspect the area, others will create more son cyborgs and so and on.
the development was crazy but all of this is possible thanks to the black giant stone they took from the cave upsidedown.
the time was crucial but Li Xiang was not nervous which was unnatural, one needs to know that what they are going against might be assistance closer to a god, but he didn't beat a sweat, that wasn't because he was fearless or turned silly, the reason was simply that his and Erhas safety was assured, his silly fish decided to waste all the first bunch of resources to buy two tickets god tier, once used it can teleport the user unto a sanctuary hidden from all eyes for a month.
"isn't this just spending a honeymoon with just the two of them?", Li felt sweet in his heart, when Erha gave him his ticket his mention flew like a rocket, and his expectations skyrocketed, this means that his position in Erha's heart is above everyone, just with this he can have the courage to make the other fall in love with himself.
"system, tell me this love parameter", knowing that he has me in his heart made me wanna check, what if he really likes himself already
"roger, the target's positive emotions towards you is 55%,
"ding, Erha's heart made a comment, do u wanna hear it "
Li Xiang nods approvingly," ding, Erha thinks that Li feels like home so the heart feels safe and peaceful the beating pace is neutral and steady, the heart wants to thank you "
"huh? why does this heart seem alive ?", Li Xiang couldn't help but look down at his chest as if trying to figure out if his heart is also alive.
going back to his senses, his mood brightens up and with big strides, he goes inside the lab.
today is the third day away from the seven's day meeting, many resources are piling like mountains, and like usual I go to collect them, one after another everything gets absorbed by the Poseidon mall.
"teleportation tickets cost a lot, if I'm planning to give one for each citizen then I need to buy at least 100 each day "
"shield talismans: costs according to the level, I need to gather at most 1000 pieces of 3 stars shield talisman"
"one punch kill talisman: is a saint star level, only needs a 50 if possible "
" the 13 goddess statue formation: legendary star level, I can only have one though "
"Sheilds....."
"Pills...."
"escape talisman"
"weapon...."
"my cute pets also need armor and weapons, if I get more EP (energy points: currency of the mall) I will buy as many god star tickets like the one I bought for myself and brother Li, that way even if I stay inside that sanctuary with my pets, playing and huddling every day because seriously I barely can handle this apocalypse without internet and if I stay one month without being able to use the mall or the lucky wheel and even without getting to watch any movies or drama, I might really die from boredom !!!!
'sigh' let's just wish we don't have to use them, living here for a year and going through a lot of events I'll be lying if I said to have any feelings.
I sigh one more time hopelessly, fate is ruthless when I decided to stay low and mind my own business an anonymous power hold decided to kidnap me
I sigh for the third time for my destiny, it is such a crime to be both handsome and irresistible, I guess I'm somehow guilty, the least I can do is to take responsibility and make sure to let as many people live.
On the fourth day, everyone was working so hard, some people pilled an all-nighter some fainted from exhaustion, some were tired but still worked, this was not entirely because they were forced because although they were forced they did not get assigned inhuman and ruthless work, the reason was simply that the reward is too enchanting, if they complete the work in this exaggerated small time, they can get a chance to awaken their ability, get two teleportation tickets, three shield talisman, and an extraordinary weapon!! no one will be dumb enough to miss this chance even they missed a leg or an arm , everyone was so fired and almost skipped their meals.
