Chapter 287 Battle for the Cape 30
"That is the first time I’ve heard of a philosophy like that." Feng Bujue’s reaction was similar to Shiva’s.
"You can understand that as this." Seven Kills smiled. "For me, the method of winning is more important than winning itself."
"You have to make the enemy accept the loss fair and square?" Feng Bujue said.
"I only care about me. Whether the enemy accept it is not my business," Seven Kills replied.
"Even so, this is just a game. Why put such a heavy requirement on yourself?"
"No, this is very important," Seven Kills said severely. "In the real world, to achieve their goal, people have no bottom line, tricking the kind and being scared of the evil, laughing at the poor but not at the wicked.
"But at this place, everything is simpler. One’s belief can be pursued with one’s fists and have those wicked people lose until they have no face."
"No wonder you are only ranked fifteen on the ranking," Feng Bujue commented. "That principle places you in plenty of bad situations, right?"
"Humph... Perhaps to you, this is idiocy," Seven Kills said.
"No, I admire people with principles," Feng Bujue said with a smile. "As much as I don’t agree with it, idiotic is more suitable to use on those who have been brainwashed by other’s principles."
"Ha!" Seven Kills laughed. He did not continue this but changed the subject. "By the way, I remembered this on the way to the Batcave. Feng Bujue, you are Long Aomin’s friend, yes?"
"Yes," Feng Bujue answered. He was not surprised that Seven Kills would name Brother Long’s ID because Brother Long had once said that the guild he joined was with all his colleagues, so it was normal for them to know each other.
"So... is your company actually a gaming studio?" Feng Bujue asked.
Seven Kills was startled. This was the first time he had received that question. Blade Edge was not ranked second on the guild ranking, and it was not open to public players. So, most players would believe they come from a professional gaming studio. This was something everyone perceived, and no one had asked about it.
"Ah... ah." The second ah was more stressed than the first. "Yes, yes. Of course we are a studio."
Because he did not know what Brother Long had told Feng Bujue, Seven Kills could only follow what Feng Bujue said. After all, he could not honestly say that they were a unit assigned by the police force to monitor the game.
Seven Kills gave a long sigh. "After chatting for so long, counting the period where you were on the escape, your Life Points and Stamina Points should have recovered, right?"
"Not yet." Feng Bujue looked at the menu. His Life Points was at fifty-one percent, and his Stamina Points were at 342/2800. "But... it is enough for a one on one match."
"Are you sure?" Seven Kills added. "The Batsuit I have on is legendary level, and the quality..."
Suddenly, Feng Bujue interrupted him. "Remove your cape."
"The cape?" Seven Kills turned around to see. "Oh... I didn’t realize I took this with me until I left the Batcave." At the time, after he put on the Batsuit, he was shocked by the properties, and he was distracted, so when he took the cape, he merely took the first one in the glass closet.
"A broken Batcape will not turn into Batwings after being charged. Even the fire defense is greatly reduced," Feng Bujue said. "I believe removing this cape won’t affect you too much."
"Hmm... Indeed, it won’t." Seven Kills smiled as he removed the cape, and he tossed it toward Feng Bujue, as the cape danced on the wind. "There is no property to this equipment. I put it on to maintain the overall image of Batman. If you wish for a more even fight, then I can remove the helmet..."
"There’s no need," Feng Bujue said as he accepted the cape and studied the item.

After reading that, he silently put it inside his inventory before lifting his head to say, "Then... let’s get started."
