Chapter 155 Hehe, What A Coincidence

Ming looks at Mike, realizing they both use their real names as nicknames. Perhaps this is fate. He then points to the two beams of golden light on the ground, "You can pick one."

"Me?" Mike points to himself, somewhat in disbelief. Gold light! His highest accomplishment before was only purple light.

"If you don't want it, I won't hesitate to take both..."

"No, no, no! I want it!!"

Mike picks up one of the golden cards, and Ming takes the other.

Honestly, Ming has gotten so many exclusive skill cards that he's become numb. If he got a red card, he would feel excited.

"Hahaha!!!" Mike looks at his golden card and laughs like a madman.

[Your froglets, asleep in your pocket, are awakened by the laughter. They poke their heads out to look at the guy who just personally killed the intimate zombie and feel like he's acting like he's never seen anything good before...]

[Foodie wants to activate its fighting spirit and warns, "If you don't sleep at night, do you want to return to the trash can?" ]

Ming returns the two froglets to his pocket, "Both of you go to sleep. There's nothing more for you guys to do."

"Sunglasses Man! Thank you!!!" Mike excitedly approaches Ming to shake his hand in gratitude.

Ming steps back, "You just touched a zombie; don't you realize you're dirty?"

"..."

Mike freezes momentarily, feeling hurt by the word 'dirty.' But now that he has an exclusive skill, he doesn't care about what happened earlier.

If getting touched by a zombie once meant getting an exclusive golden skill, he believes he could make the zombies go bankrupt.

"Wait a second~."

Mike takes a small white bottle from his inventory, "I have hand sanitizer with me. We can both clean up."

"..."

Ming rolls his eyes at him, thinking, 'You're well-prepared, huh?'

"It's rose-scented and smells amazing."

"Really? Let me see."

"Here, it is my treasure."

Mike hands over the hand sanitizer, and the next second, he watches as Ming stores it in his inventory and asks, "Do you have any other scents?"

"Nope!" Mike shakes his head vigorously.

"Oh, well. Don't just stand there looking clueless. We only have half an hour to collect resources in the instance. Hurry up!"

After saying that, Ming enters the building and starts collecting various metals and valuable items.

"Alrighty~" Mike immediately follows. He thinks exchanging a bottle of hand sanitizer for a friendship with a big shot like Ming is the best deal in the world. If there's a better one, he will make them go bankrupt.

"Don't try to cozy up to me. Keep a one-meter distance from me..."

"..."

"Have you learned any life skills?"

"Nope..."

"That's fine. Help me gather more metals and various medicines, bandages, disinfectants, and so on."

"Got it~."

Mike immediately smashes the hospital reception desk, takes the metal plates from it, and stores them in his inventory. He turns to Ming, who is dismantling chairs, and asks, "Guess what that golden card I got earlier was?"

"I don't want to guess." Ming stores a chair in his inventory. There are quite a lot of these in the hospital.

"It's an exclusive skill that the zombie king used on me when he fed me the pill."

Mike excitedly approaches Ming, "Do you want me to demonstrate it for you?"

"..."

Half an hour later.

[copy search time has ended. Teleportation will begin immediately...]

Two beams of white light touch the ground and disappear immediately after.

...

2:00 AM

When Mike lands, he finds himself standing on a small hill. With the help of the moonlight, he sees a massive rift in the ground, which is not the location of his home.

He realizes that the personal instance teleportation is a random drop.

"I'm finally back!"

Mike exclaims excitedly. Suddenly, he feels a chill rise behind him, so he immediately leaps forward and turns around with his shield and sword drawn.

"Holy cow!" He is astonished to see three enormous crabs in front of him. The one in the middle is at least 6 meters tall, while the others are around 4 meters tall. He looks up and sees a person standing on each crab - two women and one man.

"What do you want?" Mike raises his shield and sword, "Do you know who my big brother is? don't come!"

"Bro, you landed on my family's hill~" Alan smiles, "I don't have any ill intentions, don't worry."

"Uh, sorry for being too cautious." Mike still holds his sword and shield, remaining vigilant.

"You were teleported from a personal copy, right?"

"Yeah, that's why I ended up here randomly. These three giant crabs are your puppets, huh?"

"Mhm~"

Alan nods with a smile and says, "To be precise, this big one is my big brother's, and the other two smaller ones are mine."

Mike looks around and asks, "Uh, where's your big brother?"

"He's pretty busy. I only saw him once a couple of days ago. How about your big brother?"

"My big brother is also very busy. We only see each other every few days."

After saying that, Mike looks at the other side of the rift and turns to Alan, "Bro, it'll be a few days until the next personal instance. I guess I'll have to stay here with you. Is that alright?"

"There's no problem with that. I'm the only one in this area."

Alan jumps off the giant crab and reaches out his hand, "I'm Alan, a puppeteer."

Mike shakes hands with him, "I'm Mike, a Barrier."

"Mike?"

Alan looks surprised as he sizes up Mike, "Are you the Mike who just achieved a five-star clear in the personal instance?"

"Uh, well..." Mike feels a bit embarrassed, thinking that it was all because of Ming's help that he could clear the instance. On his own, it would have been impossible. But now, he scratches his head sheepishly and says, "Aha, that should be me."

"Wow, you're amazing!"

Alan grabs Mike, "Come on, let's go inside for a drink, and you can tell me about the personal instances. I'm planning to participate in one too."

"... "

Mike feels awkward, thinking he should try not to mislead others.

...

Meanwhile, Ming lands and finds himself in someone else's house again.

Awkward~

"Ah!!"

A woman covered in delicate little scales, wrapped in a blanket, cowers in the corner, looking at Ming with a fearful expression.

Ming realizes he's seen this woman before and awkwardly smiles, "Sorry to disturb you; please continue sleeping~."

"Is it you?" The woman recalls Ming as the one who gave her a mirror a few days ago.

"Hehe, what a coincidence! I have some things to do, so bye~" Ming turns around and walks out.

"..."

The woman, holding her blanket, looks up at the hole in her roof, knowing she'll have to patch it up again tomorrow.

"Sorry about that. I forgot that when I landed earlier, I smashed your roof."

Ming returns and tosses a few steel plate modules on the floor, "Um, just patch it up yourself, alright? goodbye~"

"..."

The woman looks puzzled momentarily, then glances at the materials on the floor. She gets out of bed, revealing her body covered in fine scales. She leans out the window only to see that Ming has disappeared into the darkness.
