...Who could have thought that she, the patriarch of the Crystal Clan, would be assassinated by a member of the Mechanical Clan.
Yamada Machi drew his knife, his lightly made-up face showing a cold expression, the bright blue liquid dripped down the blade, his eyes flashed with a few irresistible desires, he almost wanted to lick the blood, but he quickly suppressed this desire.
With his right hand, he pulled the bow of the black and white dress behind him, and the long dress fell to the ground layer by layer. He instantly returned to his male clothing of long clothes and long pants. This kind of instant change of clothes was already very familiar to him. No matter which copy he was in, he was good at changing clothes to get close to the target, whether it was assassination or flattery.
After lurking on the Cloud Island for a day and a half, he completed his advanced mission - assassinating the Crystal Clan leader Zhilier. Now, it was time for him to find his teammates.
"The Turritopsis dohrnii... I know who it is the moment I hear it. There should be a lot of people looking for him right now." Yamada-cho twirled the dagger.
He glanced at the 1,789-word story he had written: "Can the Mechanical Maid Dream of the Turritopsis?"
He has already decided to write an adventure story, using the writing style of the hot-blooded Japanese comics in another world:
A bullied teenager was about to commit suicide by jumping into the river, but was hit by a truck while trying to save a kitten. He woke up and was reborn in a different world! Unfortunately, he was just an ordinary mechanical race, living in the sewers on the surface, enduring a poor life of discrimination. At this time, an ignorant crystal girl of the higher race met him and expressed her wish to help the lower class. The boy and the girl hit it off and decided to change this world of the jungle and save Luowasha! At this moment, the adventure journey of the mechanical boy and the noble girl to save the world is serialized!
"But I killed her mother... Is this the poisonous point in the story?" Yamada Machi scratched his head in distress. Although Zhili'er was a wicked superior, she was Zhifei's mother after all. He didn't know how to face her when he returned...
If she forgives him, she will be like the brainless female supporting role in the harem story, who counts money for the male protagonist even after her family is killed, and even loses herself for the male protagonist's love. If she doesn't forgive him, it will be another series of stomach-breaking developments.
"Ah...writing a story is so difficult." Yamada Machi stepped over the pool of blood, the knife in his hand spinning.
…
Lu Shu walked across the water.
After he left the Crescent Island of the vampires, several people came to him. They were Lu Yuqing's former friends.
One is a blond, green-eyed man, sunny and cheerful, named "Yongchun". The other is a white-haired, red-eyed girl, lively and a little neurotic, named "Eva".
Lu Shu originally wanted to chat with them, but after entering the slums, these two people brutally killed people just because the poor were blocking the way... They are really two lunatics.
Gray and black clouds covered the sky. White bones could be seen in the slum's simple alleys. It was unknown which poor people were so hungry that they started to devour each other.
"Please be kind and give me some money..." As they passed the bridge, a poor man crawled out from the shadows and grabbed Eva's trouser leg.
Eva's face was full of disgust, and she was about to break the poor man's finger bones, but Lu Shu stopped her.
"Eat." Lu Shu squatted down and gave a piece of bread to the poor man. Seeing the poor man wolfing down the food, a trace of loneliness and memories flashed in his eyes.
"Lv Yuqing, you weren't so kind before." Eva raised her willow-shaped eyebrows.
"Now, I want to be a good person." Lu Shu stood up. No matter who Lu Yuqing was before, he was here now.
"…But your kindness may not be rewarded." Eva said meaningfully.
Lu Shu was slightly startled. He suddenly found that hundreds of eyes emerged from the shadows and stared at him intently. The poor people rushed over and surrounded him.
"Kind stranger, you have given him one piece of bread, please give me one piece of bread too!" The white-haired old woman stretched out her palm full of holes, her turbid eyes full of expectation.
“Good-hearted person, please give me one piece too… I’ve been hungry for two days longer than he has!” A middle-aged man, smelling like garbage, approached Lu Shu.
"Give it to me. I'm a child. I'm more valuable when I'm alive than you... Get out of the way, you old fool!" A child who looked about ten years old pushed around and kicked the leg bones of the people next to him without any hesitation.
Lu Shu stood there in a daze. He was like a piece of meat falling into a lake of piranhas, with numerous hands reaching out to him.
He suddenly understood why Yongchun and Eva acted without hesitation just now.
A poor and desperate life is enough to turn every normal person into a greedy madman.
