Chapter 116: Lucky Toolman But no one took the bait. …
"Why?"
Wilbert remained unmoved; he looked at the plastic mannequin with an indifferent expression.
"Since you said we are customers, then it is normal for customers to choose goods in a supermarket, right?"
"Or does your supermarket simply not welcome customers to buy items?"
The plastic mannequin didn't dare to accept the big hat. It shook its arms quickly and tried to excuse itself.
"...You misunderstood. That's not what I meant. I thought you took something you didn't need, so I asked you to take it back. I'll just put it back where it was."
After the chase just now, the plastic mannequin was in a very bad state. The skin that had been stuck with great difficulty was already shaky, with only some roots still barely sticking, swaying in the air.
"Excuse me, this is exactly what I wanted to buy."
Wilbert said this in a cold voice, showing no intention of giving in.
Seeing this, the plastic mannequin's expression froze, and it used its hand to hold back the skin that was about to fall off, still with a very polite smile on its face.
"Since this is the item you need, I won't bother you any more - please do as you please."
The plastic dummy made way, but its smooth eyeballs kept rolling around, staring at Wilbert intently, and also glanced at Blake behind him, with greed in its eyes.
"…What kind of monster is that! So scary!"
"Luckily Blake is here, otherwise we would never be able to escape!"
Wilbert who actually talked to the "monster": ...
All the humans crowded around Blake, chattering. Blake took two steps forward and they followed him.
"Cheshia, Cheshia is right here, right?"
Blake stood next to Wilbert and pointed to his pocket.
As soon as she spoke, the humans began to discuss who "Cheshia" was, which gave Wilbert a headache.
He took out the tiger-skin chicken feet from his pocket in annoyance, held them up with his fingers in disgust, and showed them to Blake.
"Blake? Why are you with Will?"
After being trapped in the pocket for a long time, Cecia saw Blake as soon as she came out. His iconic white hair and white eyes were hard to forget.
"It's a long story..."
Blake held nothing back and told their experiences in detail.
When Cecia was pulled into the dungeon, Blake and Wilbert also entered the dungeon simultaneously.
Their first room wasn’t difficult, and after they both cleared it separately, they met in the second room.
Although the two sides had no personal relationship in the Western Fantasy World, as the leader of the blood clan, Wilbert had always wanted to establish diplomatic relations with the Perseran clan, so he was able to maintain superficial friendship.
Wherever he went, Blake would be treated well by the NPCs, so their clearance was very smooth, and every time they cleared a room, a human would join them.
Humans kept their distance from Wilbert, but they were particularly close to Blake, as if he had some unique personality charm.
Under Blake's aura, they cleared eleven rooms together, and the "Convenience Supermarket" was their twelfth room. At this moment, there were already ten humans gathered around them.
They explored the supermarket but found no NPCs and got no clues. Apart from a huge variety of goods, they found nothing.
A group of people were confused and gathered together to discuss what to do next.
Encountered a plastic dummy chasing Cecia.
"…You know what happened next."
After hearing their stories, Cecia once again began to doubt her luck.
They met powerful teammates right from the start and cleared eleven rooms together, but what about her?
Not only did he not meet any useful teammates, but he also ran into the insidious guy Boris... He almost failed in the third room.
Moreover, the reason why Blake was able to gain the trust of so many humans should be due to her passive ability.
[Identity Card "Villain Daughter"]
[Evil Will Be Repaid with Evil (Passive): As a Villain, you cannot attack creatures that are kinder than you. The higher the evilness of the enemy, the more damage you will inflict after attacking.
Note: This passive effect can be shared with teammates. "Good" and "evil" are defined by the system, which is basically the same as the secular definition. 】
[Prominent Family Background (Passive): Your wealthy family background gives you a unique and noble temperament, making it easier for you to gain the respect of others. 】
These passive abilities are much more useful than balloons.
Seeing those ten energetic humans, Cecia swallowed and wished she could grab a few of them.
"What about you? How did you become like this?"
Those pure white eyes looked at Cecia, their expression full of curiosity, "Can you tell me about it?"
Although the experience was not glorious, she still told the whole story without any exaggeration.
"Have you seen Boris?"
After patiently listening to the whole story, Wilbert picked up the tiger-skin chicken feet and asked in a cold voice.
"Where did he go?"
"How should I know?"
Cecia answered unhappily, and she got angry when she saw the other person's face that looked like Boris. "He's your brother, not mine. Shouldn't I ask you this?"
"you!"
Wilbert was furious and subconsciously increased the strength of his hands, but Blake snatched the tiger-skin chicken claws away.
"It's amazing, how could it become like this?"
Blake was still curious. She poked the tiger-skin chicken feet here and there, as if she found it fun.
"…So, the plastic dummies can't be trusted?"
Seeing no response, Wilbert changed the subject. That thing was disgusting and he didn't like it in the first place. It would be best if he didn't have to deal with it.
"It can be considered a neutral NPC. It has gained something by helping Boris."
Cecia frowned in disgust and warned, "But it seems to be very interested in non-human species. You and Blake should be careful."
"Thank you, I'll keep an eye on it."
Blake thanked him politely, but Wilbert said nothing, seeming to be thinking about something.
"By the way, come with me to the warehouse to pick up two people."
She took the initiative and moved to look at Blake.
"I have two companions trapped in the warehouse. They will be very helpful in the upcoming mission."
Blake was simple-minded. She agreed to Cecia's invitation without hesitation and headed towards the warehouse with her huge team.
On the way, we met a little bear who was sweating profusely.
The little bear couldn't outrun the plastic dummy, let alone catch up with Cecilia. It kept trying to follow behind, but was still left behind by a long distance.
When running into such a large group of people head-on, the teddy bear wanted to dodge at first, but his eyes were quickly attracted by the tiger-skin chicken feet in Blake's hand.
"Thea! Is that you!"
The little guy put his fear behind him and rushed straight towards Blake, jumping and jumping, trying to see clearly what was going on with Cecilia.
"It's me. I'm fine."
After resting for a while, Cecia recovered some of her strength. She fell from Blake's hand and floated next to the little bear.
"The plastic dummy, it doesn't look like it will let you go easily..."
The teddy bear looked left and right, afraid that Cecilia would be hurt.
"These people are all players. They started the mission as customers. With them around, the plastic dummies can't do anything."
She explained to the teddy bear as she floated towards the warehouse.
A few minutes later, a group of people appeared outside the warehouse.
The door of the warehouse had been smashed in.
As the plastic mannequin rummaged through the items inside, they were found to be in a mess, with some of the goods even damaged, making it look like they had been robbed.
Cecia floated and came to the hut they had built earlier.
Sure enough, the bag of spicy potato chips was lying quietly in the corner.
Since Jia Dabing was unable to move, he hid in the shadows and did not attract the attention of the plastic dummy at all.
Hearing someone approaching outside, Jia Dabing became even more frightened. He didn't even dare to breathe and his body trembled uncontrollably.
"We are back."
Cecia floated to Jia Dabing's side and poked him with the corner of her mouth, and the other party moved his body cautiously.
"…You are finally back."
After confirming that it was one of his own, Jia Dadan's voice became tearful again.
He was left here alone and was so scared that even the potato chips in his mouth became shriveled.
"The people behind us are all new players. As long as they buy us, we can return to our original state."
Hearing this, Jia Dabing felt like he had seen a savior.
He squirmed his body and kept crawling on the ground, trying to get closer to the group of players.
"Please! Please buy me!"
Jia Dadan begged pitifully, and the sound seemed particularly ridiculous coming from a bag of spicy potato chips.
"I'll buy you one."
Blake squatted down and picked up Jia Dadan. She looked at this bag of talking spicy potato chips curiously.
To her, the form of this food was very novel and she couldn't help but take a second look at it.
The group came to the warehouse in a hurry and left in a hurry.
In the process of carrying out the mission, Jia Dabing was once again regarded as a "lucky tool man", and Blake's control of him could be said to be like a tiger with wings.
With the double buff of the two, they encountered dozens of job spots, and the NPCs always took special care of them and gave them big prizes from time to time.
They just wandered around the supermarket and earned more than 700 coins. Moreover, the humans handed over all the coins they earned to Black.
During this period, the plastic dummy was unwilling to let them pass the level, and tried to take other players aside separately, sowing discord among them in various ways, and offered many benefits that were difficult to refuse.
But no one took the bait.
When it was ten o'clock in the evening, Blake divided the coins in his hand equally among each player. The players spent all of them and bought a lot of things.
These include the tiger skin chicken feet that Cecilia turned into, and the spicy potato chips that Jia Dadan turned into.
[Ding, congratulations to the player for completing the task. The third room - "Convenience Supermarket" has been cleared. The entrance to the next room is opening for you...]
A mechanical prompt sounded from the speaker, and the colorful door rose synchronously in the supermarket.
"Cheshia, long time no see."
Seeing Cecia return to her human form, Blake came up and gave her a hug, "I knew that as long as I stayed in the dungeon, I would definitely meet you."
On the other side, meeting those scarlet eyes, Wilbert’s expression instantly turned gloomy.
"I prefer tiger skin chicken feet..."
He secretly complained and was reluctant to see Cecilia regain her freedom.
