The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human? -

Chapter 47: Chapter 47: People Bully with Dog’s Power
"Do I even need to think about it?"
Liu Zheng smiled.
"Of course, it’s about continuing the delivery."
Free room and board without work, where does such a good deal exist?
Anyone who says otherwise is either selling something or preaching something skewed.
Singing to the starry skies every day, would he still be himself in the end?
He had to apply to conclude the instance.
If he lost himself, endlessly in this instance world,
would he actually be dead or alive?
"Then I have nothing more to say."
Garcia shook his head, ready to stay until the believers left.
"Did I let you go?"
Liu Zheng said.
"Niu Ma alone can’t stop us, and as for you, it’s like an ant trying to halt a chariot."
Garcia said disdainfully, watching him.
Just a vessel containing the Gospel, and he thinks he’s someone important?
Liu Zheng looked at Niu Ma.
"I didn’t expect the birdman to come personally."
Niu Ma shook his head.
Normally, in such trades, the Circle Sect would at most send a priest to lead.
Garcia was originally a priest, his mask bore three quarter circles.
Liu Zheng then looked at San Huamao.
"The head chef said, I can’t help you guys fight, meow."
San Huamao also indicated his helplessness.
"Then there’s nothing I can do. You guys can go."
He sighed.
When his own kitchen staff aren’t even trying, why should he, a mere delivery guy, bother?
"We will meet again, sir."
Garcia made a quarter-circle gesture at Liu Zheng.
Liu Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly; this guy seemed to be threatening him.
Just as he was wondering whether to talk tough himself, a voice as thin as a mosquito’s entered his ear.
"Save me, please."
"Hmm?"
Liu Zheng shifted his gaze subtly, looking towards the ice.
"Save me, please, save me."
The voice grew louder.
Liu Zheng looked at Niu Ma and San Huamao; they seemed to notice nothing.
"Are you that mermaid?"
He tried responding in his mind.
"Yes, I am the mermaid princess Kova. I am communicating with you telepathically."
The mermaid responded.
Mind Reading, she hasn’t eaten garlic rice with brains, has she?
Liu Zheng thought with a weird expression.
"I haven’t eaten any brains. This is a natural ability I possess as the daughter of the sea."
The mermaid princess responded.
"You can hear that too, it’s kind of disgusting."
He frowned.
"Sorry, but I can’t control it."
The mermaid princess immediately apologized.
"Forget it. Cut to the chase, what’s in it for me if I save you?"
The mermaid princess was a fish after all; his kindness didn’t extend across species.
"Return me to the sea, and my father the king will reward you boundlessly,"
the mermaid princess said.
"Not interested."
Setting aside whether the mermaid princess would fulfill her promise, the prerequisite was unachievable.
Returning her to the sea? He couldn’t even leave this street without delivering food.
"Then, I can transform into a human and marry you."
The mermaid princess said somewhat shyly.
"Even less interested."
He was no Deng Chao.
"Then... I can give you this."
The mermaid princess hesitated for a few moments before speaking.
Suddenly, a faint light flickered within the ice, catching Liu Zheng’s eye.
It was a pendant at the chest of the mermaid princess, a blue heart-shaped gem.
"Name: Heart of the Ocean (Replica)"
"Type: Equipment"
"Quality: Fine"
"Effect: Increases movement speed in water by 50%, allows free breathing underwater."
"Note: You jump, I keep."
"Can it be taken out of the instance? Yes"
Now that’s something interesting.
Liu Zheng felt a bit tempted.
Thinking about it another way, this was actually a lifesaving item.
If it gets too dangerous on land, he could just jump into the water and hide.
However, to obtain this item, it wasn’t necessary to save the mermaid.
"The Heart of the Ocean is connected to my life; if I die, it will shatter too,"
the mermaid princess quickly said.
Damn, I forgot this guy could hear his heart talk.
"Even if I snatch you from the hands of the Gospel Cult, you’ll still end up a dish at the Bloody Restaurant,"
Liu Zheng thought of another problem.
"You don’t need to worry about that, you just need to buy me."
the mermaid princess replied.
"Besides the Heart of the Ocean, I have another gift for you, but I can’t tell you what it is right now."
"Fine then,"
he shrugged.
Originally, Liu Zheng wanted the mermaid princess to first dispel the Mermaid Tears, so he could check the goods.
But then he thought checking the goods wasn’t his job, so he let it be.
"Hey, we’re buying this fish,"
Liu Zheng shouted.
"Oh?"
Garcia, who was watching the followers pack, turned around, a strange light flashing across his iron face.
"My lord, you’re too late, the black market has just confirmed the purchase with me,"
he took out his phone and waved it.
"Don’t you know first come, first served? How do you do business?"
Liu Zheng complained.
"If I’m not mistaken, my lord just asked us to leave, right?"
Garcia said with a smile.
"Yeah, I told you to leave, not the goods."
He said assertively.
"This quarrel is pointless. My lord, it’s better for everyone to part on good terms."
Garcia shook his head.
"What if I insist on buying it?"
Liu Zheng countered, holding a chef’s knife.
Garcia looked at the gluttony in his eyes, revealing a hint of fear, but still spoke resolutely,
"Then let’s see how capable you are."
"Fine! Niu Ma, Salmon, get up here."
He took a big step backward, positioning the two in front of him.
"Why the hell should I take orders from you?"
Niu Ma cursed loudly.
"The head chef told me not to fight,"
San Huamao added.
"Then I can’t help it."
Liu Zheng shrugged, then pulled out the Tendalos toothpick.
"Then I’ve got no choice but to unleash the dogs."
He raised the bone high, like he was holding a grenade.
"Damn it!"
Niu Ma’s eyes went crooked with fear.
"Meow meow meow!!!"
San Huamao was so scared that all its hairs stood on end, and its body arched almost to the point of folding in half.
"What are you trying to do?!"
San Huamao’s owner also appeared.
"My lord... why must it come to this?"
Garcia asked with difficulty.
The image on his mask was all scrunched up, clearly frightened as well.
Were Tendalos Dogs really that scary?
Liu Zheng was startled by their reactions himself.
"Yeah, just helping in the kitchen, do you really need to go this far? Is Napoleon your real dad?"
Niu Ma also cursed.
"Boss, you know me. Whatever I do, I have to do it the best I can."
Liu Zheng said earnestly.
"You won’t let me check the goods, you won’t sell them to me, you make it hard for me."
He turned to Garcia, his smile carrying a hint of chill.
"It’s just a deal, I don’t believe you’d risk going down with us."
Garcia gradually calmed down, his intelligence regaining the upper hand.
"You can tell I’ve heard the Gospel, can’t you see I’ve gone mad?"
Liu Zheng said deliberately.
Then suddenly, he stabbed Garcia.
Garcia’s form swayed, trying to dodge the blade.
"Don’t move, or I’ll have to throw the bone."
Liu Zheng waved the toothpick.
In the face of his threat, Garcia’s eyes turned cold but he stopped moving.
The gluttony sank into Garcia’s shoulder, immediately devouring a large chunk of his flesh.
"Consider this a closure. If my lord still insists on this standpoint, I guess we’ll all go down together."
Garcia said, enduring the pain.
"Closure? How could it be?"
Liu Zheng smiled.
Garcia’s gaze deepened, the four quarters on his mask gathering towards the center, about to form a full circle.
"This is just the beginning,"
Liu Zheng burst into mad laughter as he thrust the gluttony into his own chest.
It sank up to the hilt.
