Martial Arts: I Have Diligence Reward System
Chapter 839 - 279: The Smell of Your Socks
"Su Yue, what do we do? This old Garlic is going to interfere with our action!"
Yang Lezhi muttered anxiously.
No sooner said than done.
Zhao Qian’en marched over vigorously, and right in front of him, a roughly half-human height Scab Toad was strolling leisurely.
If nothing unexpected happened, they would discover each other in a minute.
Then, they would completely ruin the mission.
The upright walking toad was precisely the Scab Beast.
The Scab Beast looked strange, exactly like the Toad Essence from that ancient animation in Divine Land.
Of course, this Scab Beast Demon did not have a steel fork in its hand.
The Scab Beast’s strength was very weak, only at the first rank.
This was also a bold Scab Beast Demon, such weak strength, yet still had the guts to wander around.
"Old Garlic?"
Su Yue was startled, giving nicknames as soon as they met, that’s not good.
"This guy has a garlic nose, let’s call him Old Garlic One, these things don’t matter.
"If Old Garlic One encounters Toad Number One, he will definitely kill Toad Number One. If Toad Number One warns all the Scab Beast Demons before dying, we’d be finished!"
Yang Lezhi continued.
"Yeah, can’t let Old Garlic One affect us."
Meng Yang nodded firmly.
A joke.
After ambushing for so long and still being misunderstood, the plan absolutely cannot be ruined.
"Bai Xiaolong, Meng Yang, you two take down Old Garlic One first, don’t let him yell!
"Toad Number One will definitely find our tracks, I’ll go deal with Toad Number One!"
The situation was urgent, Su Yue could only make the decision first.
"What if he insists on shouting? Can’t exactly cut off his tongue, after all, we’re all humans. Meng Yang can handle this kind of thing, I can’t do it."
Bai Xiaolong asked softly.
"Bai Xiaolong, have you no shame? Why are you so brutal! See if there’s anything to stuff his mouth with first."
Meng Yang was angry.
"How about my socks? Specially designed for humid conditions, it can last three days without rotting and has my faint scent."
Yang Lezhi interrupted.
"Yang Lezhi, you’re such a tycoon, willing to buy such expensive socks!"
Meng Yang was tongue-tied.
Wetland socks, worth 1000 credits.
Although for them, 1000 credits wouldn’t cause much pain, wetland socks could only last about three days before rotting.
Three days, wasting 1000 credits, simply an enormous luxury.
Of course, wetland socks also had benefits, such as ensuring mud doesn’t stain the skin, a top choice for many dignitaries.
"I’m ashamed, it was originally bought for my girlfriend, but she was too lazy to go to the wetland, so I ended up wearing them!" 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞
Yang Lezhi said humbly.
"Envious of your lady!"
Meng Yang smelled the scent of money from Yang Lezhi.
"You can also give each other love socks, by the way, I don’t know which of you is the receiver?"
Yang Lezhi seriously asked.
"Yang Lezhi, if you keep babbling, I’ll kill you!"
Bai Xiaolong was furious.
"Oh, so you’re the top!"
Yang Lezhi looked at Bai Xiaolong thoughtfully, about his taste.
"Stop talking nonsense, Garlic Number One has arrived at the designated attack position."
Su Yue whispered.
"Is it really appropriate? We don’t know him, just stuffing socks."
Meng Yang was still a little unwilling.
"One must fend for oneself, or heaven will destroy them. We’re saving his life, if it attracts Alien Race Grandmaster or Demon Beast Grandmaster, his life would end here.
"For the sake of his wife and kids at home, for his family, we have to help him."
Su Yue squinted.
"This twisted logic, I can’t argue with it!"
Bai Xiaolong was stunned.
"Prepare to act, I’m going to tangle with Toad Number One!"
Su Yue issued the final command.
...
Zhao Qian’en was still wandering, he had no idea where he was going.
Wandering.
gritting teeth, three days will pass quickly.
Losing his eighth rank sensing ability, he didn’t notice the four handsome guys lurking not far ahead.
Zhao Qian’en never thought he would fall in a place like this.
"Hey, why does it smell like pickled mustard greens, no—more like stinky socks.
"Something’s not right, how could there be stinky socks in the wetland."
Zhao Qian’en frowned.
He tried to find the source of the smell.
Swish!
Swish!
Suddenly, two shadows attacked him from left and right.
"Hmph, mere fifth rank, I can flick you away with one finger.
"And they’re humans, could they be spies sent to assassinate me!
"How bold!"
Zhao Qian’en instinctively prepared to strike with a palm.
Theoretically, if he strikes with this palm, the two attackers would immediately slump down, though not dead, definitely heavily injured.
After all, they’re humans, Zhao Qian’en wanted to figure out who they were.
However.
In a panic, Zhao Qian’en forgot he was at fifth rank.
His palm strike, though aggressive and imposing, had no killing power whatsoever.
No choice.
Zhao Qian’en’s well-practiced palm technique had no sufficient Qi to support, he only managed to unleash one-tenth, just for intimidation.
"Damn, that was scary just now, scared me to death."
Meng Yang was still feeling the shock.
At that instant, he even felt like facing a Grandmaster, and not an ordinary one.
Luckily, it was just a false alarm.
In the blink of an eye, he and Bai Xiaolong had closed in on Garlic Number One from both sides.
"Damn it, my Qi blood couldn’t sustain the technique.
"Escape first!"
Zhao Qian’en, after all, was a Grandmaster, he instantly grasped the battle rhythm.
Cannot afford to fall in such a place.
