Chapter 30: Chapter 30: Explosion is Art (Please Collect and Invest)

"So, it was you who caused the commotion down there." [Unseen Red Dust] looked at Li Changhe with a slight frown.

Just the Earth Knight alone had delayed him for a minute, and now with the addition of yet another person, things might become complicated.

Instead of bothering about him, Li Changhe just squatted down and placed a small bottle of liquid in front of the Earth Knight.

The moment [Unseen Red Dust] saw the liquid, his heart sank. He recognized it!

[High-Efficiency Healing Liquid] could almost instantly heal wounds for those with a physique below 10 points. Even if the Earth Knight couldn’t fully recover, he would still have some fighting power. It was troublesome! Two against one, even [Unseen Red Dust] found it difficult.

The Earth Knight coughed a few times and struggled to grab the small bottle. "I didn’t expect you to be a rich man with such thick eyebrows and big eyes. You can just give this away? It’s worth a million!"

He was, of course, familiar with the famous [High-Efficiency Healing Liquid]. It was a lifesaver. Although it couldn’t restore his multiple fractures to their original state, it did save his life.

"I owe you a big favor, Brother Knight. This little thing is just a small token of appreciation. I’ll repay the rest later." Li Changhe smiled lightly, "You’d better go first. You don’t want to encounter the [Great Wall], do you?"

"No need for my help?" The Earth Knight drank the healing liquid in one gulp, feeling the pain in his body diminish significantly. Upon hearing Li Changhe’s words, he couldn’t help but look up at him, "Although this thing can only heal muscle damage, it doesn’t matter. I can still use a few more skills." From his angle, he couldn’t see Li Changhe’s face, and he didn’t know what the big guy was thinking. Without his help, how could a Lv2 newbie player defeat a Lv6 or even Lv7 [Unseen Red Dust]?

Li Changhe whispered, "No need... The rest is my mission..."

He had been doing this task for more than ten years. Now, it was just that the opponents had changed, from those little girls who envied Xiao Nan to [Players], from removing tires from cars to real swords and guns!

In essence, nothing had changed. Li Changhe didn’t want to owe anyone any more favors.

"I’ll leave it to you, then. Tell the [Great Wall] that I’ve repaid the favor." The Earth Knight struggled to stand, throwing his deformed armor into the [Player Backpack]. He still wore the face-concealing helmet, leaning against the wall with one hand while watching Unseen Red Dust slowly back away, "He must have triggered at least two traits, maybe more. One is definitely a physique trait. Be careful!"

Unseen Red Dust’s fingers trembled slightly. He wanted to attack the Earth Knight and keep him there because he knew too much. If he contacted the [Great Wall] afterward or published his own card on the [forum], it would be dangerous for him to do tasks in the future.

But he didn’t dare... He didn’t dare to attack the Earth Knight by crossing past that young man. Regardless of whether or not the Earth Knight would join the battle, just the aura of [Uncle Eight-direction] made [Unseen Red Dust] feel familiar yet cautious.

It wasn’t until the Earth Knight had gone that Unseen Red Dust sighed. At least there was one less opponent, and his pressure was greatly reduced.

Looking at Li Changhe’s face, which seemed a little too young, he couldn’t help but laugh, "Uncle Eight-direction? Really a passionate young man. Are you a student at this school? And is that Laughing Gentleman your acquaintance? Could it be that she’s your girlfriend?"

Li Changhe also laughed lightly, "Do you want to say that if you know my identity, it’s easy to guess Laughing Gentleman’s identity? As long as you have time, you can post a [Magic Equipment] owner’s information on the [forum]? Do you think... I’ll give you that chance?"

Unseen Red Dust laughed, his vigilance rising again. Just a few words, and he was able to guess so much. Was this really just a high school student? What kind of divine school was Yanyun High School? Having one magic equipment owner wasn’t enough; there’s even this kind of character.

He really didn’t dare... Entering the [forum] would distract him. No [Player] dared to enter the [forum] while under attack from another [Player]. By the time the post was sent, he would be dead too...

"Since she really is your friend, I won’t waste my breath. I must have the Demon Armor!" Unseen Red Dust’s smile gradually faded, and his body once again transformed into the tall and black Ghost Buddha.

"What do you think I’ve been talking so much with you for?" Li Changhe exhaled, the sound of his breath like steam erupting. [Breath of Thunder] consumed one point of physical strength every second, and now with his 9+1 physique, Li Changhe’s physical strength value was only 90+10 points. Most of it had been used up during the rush. In the time it took for the Earth Knight to leave, he managed to regain some of it.

The two were less than ten meters apart, and with a [Breath of Thunder] boost, their agility reached 8+1, which was comparable to the speed of world-class athletes.

In a flash of lightning, Li Changhe appeared in front of the Ghost Buddha statue, swinging down his axe. At the same time, Yun Ting behind him waved her hair, entwining around the statue.

"Breath of Thunder? How much physical strength can you recover in such a short time?" The Ghost Buddha statue didn’t retreat but advanced, punching the axe blade while ignoring Yun Ting’s attack. His other fist smashed towards Li Changhe’s head.

Did he think that with a few [Skills] and a mysterious symbiotic body, he could withstand high-level [Players]? Unseen Red Dust sneered. As long as he killed the host, the mysterious symbiotic body would automatically dissipate!

Feeling the numbness in both his hands, Li Changhe found the fire axe directly curled by the punch. It seemed that it wasn’t easy to fight a [Player] without proper [Equipment]. Then...

Facing the Ghost Buddha statue’s huge fist, Li Changhe also swung his right hand.

"Looking for death! Even if your physique is at 10 points, you can’t compete with the Ghost Buddha..." The voice of Unseen Red Dust hadn’t finished speaking when his body shuddered. It was Li Changhe’s attack that had arrived first!

A blood-stained lead ball smashed into the face of the Ghost Buddha Statue, dispersing much of the hideous ghost face.

[Blood-stained lead ball], Li Changhe’s only [Equipment], has an attack bonus against Mysterious Forces. He never intended to clash directly with the Ghost Buddha Statue; the previous swing was just to throw the lead ball.

Although the Ghost Buddha Statue’s physical defense and Mysterious Series Defense were not low, being unprepared and hit in the head by the [Blood-stained lead ball] made [Unseen Red Dust] feel dizzy. Since the Ghost Buddha Statue’s eyes were also damaged, it would take some time to repair.

[Unseen Red Dust] promptly deactivated the [Smiling Ghost Buddha] effect, preferring to face the enemy in battle without being able to see.

However, just as the towering Ghost Buddha Statue vanished and he emerged from it, he felt his hands being grabbed. Before he could resist, more strands of hair wrapped around his body, followed by a spinning sensation.

"You’ve even anticipated this step?"

[Unseen Red Dust] couldn’t help but realize he had been thrown; [Uncle Eight-direction] had accurately figured out that he would cancel [Smiling Ghost Buddha]!

He was just waiting for it! With the help of that long-haired Mysterious Species, how far would he be thrown? If he was thrown downstairs, he wouldn’t have time to come back up.

He hurriedly tried to land and dissipate the force but still crashed into a pile of filing cabinets.

Li Changhe shook his hands and looked at the slowly emerging figure with a chuckle, "Sorry, I can’t control my strength very well now. I threw you a little too far."

[Unseen Red Dust] got up slowly with a gloomy expression on his face, sizing up his surroundings.

It was a room where film rolls were stored, filled with filing cabinets. No wonder he hadn’t been able to successfully dissipate the force; he had crashed into the already unstable cabinets.

He had just been thrown at least ten meters by this person, probably because of the involvement of the Mysterious Species.

"That’s all there is to it. That was my only mistake. And it was your only chance! Sadly, you didn’t seize it! If you had taken the opportunity to throw me down the stairs, I might have retreated. But now... do you think I only rely on the Ghost Buddha for combat?" [Unseen Red Dust] sneered, tearing away the stray strands of hair on his body. This level of attack was nothing more than a slight annoyance for [Player] who had activated [Physique Features].

Even without using [Title Skill], he was a high-level [Player] with three [Characteristics], dealing with [Uncle Eight-direction] was only a little troublesome.

Just as he was thinking this, he took a step forward, stirring up a layer of dust.

[Unseen Red Dust] was taken aback and grabbed it. This wasn’t dust at all, but... flour! The entire room was filled with flour scattered in the air!

[Unseen Red Dust]’s face changed drastically.

Li Changhe spoke in a sinister tone, "My only plan? Retreat? Don’t make me laugh... I intend to kill you here! I don’t have the leisure to let my enemies slip away."

"This small room has no ventilation system. Just now, I effortlessly dumped the flour from my [Backpack] into the room. The whole room is now full of flour."

After saying this, Li Changhe gently closed the door. At the same time, the strands of hair that [Unseen Red Dust] had removed suddenly came to life, attaching to a switch in the room.

"A brother who played with clay once said, explosions are art." A gradually fading voice came from outside the door. This was originally one of his methods to deal with ghosts in a task, but now he had to use it on a human: "Have you... heard of dust explosions?"

"You lunatic!" [Unseen Red Dust] roared in despair.

"Click!" As the switch was turned on, a spark burst out from the light bulb on the ceiling.

The next second.

"Bang!"
