Chapter 351 Even when beating a dog, you have to consider its owner
The group glanced at the items quickly, and Captain Tang Mian temporarily put away the [Pet Skill Book], to be redistributed after the tower was cleared.
I kept grinding until I reached the forty-fifth floor. The monster on this floor was the Demonized Water Worm Grass. Its back was covered with dense, seaweed-like leaves, but its body was in the shape of an insect. It was a creature that resembled both grass and insect.
Its attack method is also unique; it uses the numerous leaves on its back to frantically whip people.
In the process of dodging, Lu Cheng's arm was accidentally hit by the blade, and he gasped in pain.
A moment later, my arm became red and swollen, and I felt unbearably painful and itchy.
He immediately warned everyone, "Be careful, this guy's leaves seem to be poisonous!"
Meng Qingyin swung her sword down, severing the attacking leaves, and replied in a moment, "Don't worry, take care of yourself."
Lu Cheng's pear blossom needles were useless against the dense foliage, but they weren't.
With one slash, it's as easy as chopping melons and vegetables.
Seeing that they looked relaxed, Lu Cheng quietly started paddling in the water.
Soon, Meng Qingyin and her three companions dealt with the demonized water insect grass, and time was almost up.
They picked up the copper coins scattered on the ground, were teleported out of the tower, and were about to play rock-paper-scissors to decide who would get the [Pet Skill Book] when another team suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
This was the first time they had encountered another team attacking the tower, and everyone was somewhat surprised.
The other group was also stunned. After a brief moment of surprise, a curly-haired girl was the first to raise her hand and greet Meng Qingyin and the others: "Hello, are you here to climb the tower too? How many floors have you climbed?"
Before Meng Qingyin and the others could speak, a fat man in the curly-haired girl's group sneered, "A bunch of nobodies, they probably haven't even reached the twentieth floor. Unlike our Brother Yue..."
He fawned over the man in the lead, saying, "Brother Yue has the ability to solo the Demon Tower!"
That voice... it sounds familiar.
Meng Qingyin looked at the fat man's face.
Unfortunately, his face was covered by a breathing mask, so nothing could be seen, but judging from his face shape, Meng Qingyin felt that he looked somewhat familiar.
Before Meng could think it through, Lu Cheng next to her burst out laughing.
The fat man glared angrily at Lu Cheng: "What are you laughing at?"
The breathing mask was a little small on his face, pressing against his fleshy cheeks and making him look rather comical.
Lu Cheng couldn't hold back any longer and laughed so hard he almost fell over: "Hahaha, soloing the Magic Tower... Don't you guys know that you need a five-person team to enter the tower?"
The fat man, feeling humiliated by the repeated mockery, strode up to Lu Cheng, grabbed him by the collar, and demanded, "Are you looking for death?"
He made a move as if to punch Lu Cheng in the face.
Lu Cheng wasn't made of dough. He blocked the fat man's fist with his left hand and punched the fat man in the face with his right fist, shattering the breathing mask instantly.
The fat man's face was exposed to everyone without any reservation.
An ordinary face, with a stubble beard and a black mole on the left side of the philtrum.
The fat man's face was cut by shards of the breathing mask, and blood was slowly flowing down. He screamed in pain, "Brother Yue, save me!"
Meng Qingyin's eyes flickered.
No wonder this person's voice sounded familiar from the beginning.
She couldn't see his face clearly because he was wearing a breathing mask, but now that the mask is broken, she can finally confirm it.
The man who was knocked down by Lu Cheng with one punch and was lying on the ground howling like a banshee was her former boss, Wang Xiaoliang!
Wang Xiaoliang did not recognize Meng Qingyin; to be precise, he did not even glance at her.
He scrambled to his feet, covered his face, and ran to "Brother Yue" to complain: "Brother Yue, that kid is going too far! As the saying goes, even when beating a dog, you have to consider its owner. He hit me in front of you, which is slapping you in the face!"
Hearing these words, Meng Qingyin couldn't help but clap her hands and cheer.
This person used to be a sycophant, and he rose to the position of team leader by flattering his superiors.
He smiles radiantly at his superiors but curses at his subordinates at the drop of a hat; he's a typical two-faced person.
Unexpectedly, once he entered the survival game, his flattery skills improved significantly.
Sure enough, no matter what, those who are thick-skinned and opportunistic always live a comfortable life.
Hearing Wang Xiaoliang's tearful complaint, the man called "Brother Yue" also got angry.
Wang Xiaoliang was right. It seemed like this group of people were beating up Wang Xiaoliang, but in reality, they were beating up Zhao Yue's face!
Zhao Yue was a prominent figure in District 637. Every other team leader treated him with utmost respect.
When has he ever been humiliated like this before?
His eyes widened in fury, and he pointed a finger at Lu Cheng, "You, get over here right now and apologize to me, or I might spare your life!"
He was tall and burly, with a large build, and his glaring eyes were quite intimidating.
Lu Cheng pretended to clutch his chest, "I'm so scared!"
He said he was scared, but there was no fear on his face.
Zhao Yue sneered, "You're asking for it."
Suddenly, a pair of large hammers appeared in his hands. He slammed his hands together, and the hammers made a loud "bang".
Wang Xiaoliang, a dutiful lackey, immediately clapped and cheered, "Brother Yue, teach them a lesson!"
The curly-haired girl immediately stepped in to stop them: "Hey, I paid you to help me clear the tower, not to cause trouble."
Wang Xiaoliang immediately grabbed her arm, his tone carrying a hint of warning: "Don't interrupt. We'll take you to farm the tower after we've dealt with them."
The curly-haired girl shook off his hand, her voice displeased, "Don't touch me!"
His hand was flung away, and a sinister glint flashed in Wang Xiaoliang's eyes.
The curly-haired girl reiterated, "Zhao Yue, I didn't pay you to fight. If you want to continue, then I'm not going to keep swiping."
Wang Xiaoliang hesitated, "Brother Yue, maybe we should just let it go. They beat me up, so I'll swallow my anger. Let's not delay our business."
What appears to be persuasion is actually fanning the flames.
Zhao Yue was blinded by rage. He turned around and glared at the curly-haired girl. "Shut the hell up! You don't think you can manipulate me just because you spent some money, do you?"
He can't let this matter go so easily.
Otherwise, if word gets out that Zhao Yue's subordinate was beaten in front of him, where will he put his face?
The curly-haired girl got angry and left the group.
But she didn't leave. Instead, she stood aside and watched leisurely with her arms crossed.
She wanted to see what kind of mishap Zhao Yue would pull today.
Those guys were clearly not ordinary people. He actually got instigated by Wang Xiaoliang and went against them. What a fool.
She was bored anyway, so she decided to see what would happen to this idiot.
Zhao Yue swung his double hammers and rushed in front of Lu Cheng in one stride, the double hammers opening on either side of Lu Cheng's head.
If it were to hit, Lu Cheng's head would be smashed open.
This means he has murderous intent!
