Master of Monster Synthesis-Chapter 715 - 369: Just a Passing Pirate Knight_2

"Take out the savings for my wife, I'm buying it!"

"Boss, I want to buy the Gang Dou Belt!"

"And the Kabuto Belt... But it's too expensive, so I'll settle for the Yellow Jacket Belt."

"I want to buy the Kicking Locust Belt, it's the one Boss Zha uses, I'm dying of envy..."

"Damn it, I want the Faiz Belt, but my Reincarnation Coins are short!!"

"Old Zhan, how about we chip in and buy one Faiz Belt together? As long as we stagger our sessions and don't enter the Reincarnation World at the same time, one belt will be enough for both of us."

"This… fine, but we have to sign a reincarnation contract."

"Deal."

"Brothers, let's all chip in and buy a Kabuto Belt together…"

The buying frenzy at the Dongying Building hadn't yet subsided, when members from the Yuan Gu Building rushed over in droves to join the chaos.

"So many belts!"

"We don't even have a Transformation Device yet, buying a belt would be a good move."

"If we buy belts, the Chairman will definitely punish us."

"Who cares about that! Ultraman Transformation Devices are impossible to get our hands on; might as well join Dongying Building. Anyway, we're all part of the Special Shooting Association—he doesn't have grounds to stop us..."

"True, let's go check it out…"

Watching Yuan Gu Building members arrive, Qin Shou silently took out a variety of bizarre-looking Giant Transformation Devices.

Warm light energy illuminated the crowd, stirring excitement amongst Yuan Gu Building members as they felt a familiar power surge through them.

"Ultraman Transformation Devices!"

"That's the Taro Badge!"

"The First Generation Transformation Device!"

"Sai Wen Glasses!"

"Ais Couple Rings!!"

"And… look, even the Next-Gen Support Transformation Device!!"

"Wait, check the details—it's pirated!"

"Pirated stuff is even more expensive than the originals—where's the justice?"

"Who cares if it's pirated? At least it's better than having nothing."

"Exactly, plus the Reincarnation Hall already set a suggested retail price—the pricier it is, the stronger its power..."

"So expensive… I'm broke."

"Look, they pooled together to group-buy a single belt; let's do the same thing..."

"Right, stagger our timings, share one Transformation Device..."

The entire Special Shooting Association descended into chaos, leaving Zhang Shan and the others utterly dumbfounded.

Li Mu's face stiffened; silently he gave a thumbs-up, though he looked grim.

"Impressive, as expected of a Level 7 Reincarnator."

Shi Yun's heart was anxious. "Chairman, what do we do? So many people bought powerful belts, it'll be hard to manage them in the future."

"Exactly, with strong belts in their hands, they certainly won't follow orders like before."

Li Mu pondered, "Looks like we'll have to move the plan ahead."

Zhang Shan was shocked. "Chairman, it's too risky! We should prepare longer!"

Li Mu shook his head, confidently looking toward Qin Shou amidst the crowd.

"No need. As long as we secure Mr. Qin's support, it's practically a done deal."

"Brother Qin..."

Thinking of the Demonic Driver, Zhang Shan's face lit up in realization.

"That's right! A team led by a Level 7 Reincarnator—if we're careful, we'll definitely obtain it."

Silent until now, Zhang Jin suddenly seemed to sense something and gestured for the group to look downstairs.

"Ha, some fools have come to make trouble."

Li Mu glanced downstairs at the three imposing figures and couldn't hold back a schadenfreude smile.

"This should be good."

Sure enough, the three men walked into the building with grim faces, glaring at the crowd surrounding Qin Shou's stall and the Yuan Gu Building members gathered there. Their expressions grew even darker.

"*Ahem!*"

The long-haired young man leading the trio coughed lightly, and gasps erupted from the crowd.

"It's Chairman Wang!"

"Chairman Wang is here!"

"Oh no, Chairman Wang has arrived…"

The Yuan Gu Building members shuffled back nervously, while Dongying Building members instinctively stopped their moves and focused their gazes on the three men approaching. Silently, they backed away.

The trio stood in front of Qin Shou's stall, staring at the jumbled array of Transformation Devices and belts on the table with astonishment and a deepening scowl.

"Mr. Qin, have you sought our permission to sell Transformation Devices?" Chairman Wang said coldly.

Unbothered by Wang's stern expression, Qin Shou smiled and replied, "Why? I'm selling my goods in Dongying Building; do I need approval from Yuan Gu Building folks?"

Before Wang could respond, the man beside him snarled, "Kid, the Special Shooting Association respects Chairman Wang—who the hell is Li Mu? He can't protect you."

Qin Shou rubbed his forehead; he could tell now—these three were undoubtedly the villains in this segment of the story.

Been a long time since he'd run into something like this.

Kind of thrilled.

"So what do you want?" he asked.

"Seize all goods!" the man sneered.

"And if I refuse?"

"Then you'll face us in the Duel Arena!"

Qin Shou scoffed, "How do we duel? To determine superiority—or for life and death?"

"You…"

Wang's two comrades paled, seeing Qin Shou's utterly defiant demeanor, their confidence faltering.

Unconcerned by the two men, Qin Shou stared calmly at Wang.

"Chairman Wang, I'll give you a chance: leave here obediently, and I'll let this slide."

"Otherwise, we'll all settle this in the Duel Arena—life or death." Qin Shou tilted his head toward the trio, his tone mocking.

Facing his provocation, the trio felt an inexplicable unease amidst the crowd.

"Boss, what should we do? We can't scare him; do we really head to the Duel Arena?"

Wang whispered angrily to his companion, "This is all your idiotic blunder!"

As the trio hesitated, someone in the crowd shouted.

"Chairman Wang doesn't even dare to enter the Duel Arena—such a disgrace for the Special Shooting Association!"

"Who said that? Stand up, you soul-sucking bastard!"

The man beside Wang cursed in anger but was met with waves of ridicule.

"Heh, what kind of chairman is he? Cowardly as a rat..."

"Yeah, go home and sleep already!"

"Thought he was impressive; turns out he's just chicken at the end..."

"Yeah, doesn't look like they have much skill either..."

The trio found themselves stuck, amidst the boos and taunts.

Upstairs, several people gave Li Mu a thumbs-up.

"Chairman's tactic of using a borrowed knife to kill is brilliant."

"Haha, those three are done for."

"The power of Demonic Driver can't be compared to some extra giants."

Li Mu waved them off nonchalantly, "Enough, Mr. Qin has long intended to act. My little push was simply his tacit approval."

Hearing this, the group exchanged glances.

Indeed, as Li Mu had predicted, if Qin Shou didn't intend to make a move, showcasing his true strength would have sent the trio retreating in shame.

But he didn't.

One way to stay happy: stomp the weak!

Qin Shou tapped the duel interface, smirking.

"Chairman Wang, I've sent you the invite—join if you dare."

With that, Qin Shou dissolved into a faint light beam, merging into the interface as he whimsically adjusted the Duel Arena's ambiance.

Hmm, how about a moonlit night atop the Forbidden City?

Not exactly a swordsman duel, but close enough.

In anticipation, the crowd watched as Wang and his two companions reluctantly clicked into the duel interface and entered the Duel Arena.

The arena opened to all—a mere fee of ten Reincarnation Coins granted access to watch the battle at will.

Money not earned is money wasted!

The mysterious pirate knight Qin Shou paired with the top-tier combat force of the Special Shooting Association, Chairman Wang, naturally attracted an enormous audience.

The combination made nearly everyone willingly spend ten Reincarnation Coins to pay for the viewing fee.

...

The night was enchanting. A round moon hung high in the sky, its gentle light blanketing the expansive Forbidden City in a thin, silvery veil.

Atop the Forbidden City, Qin Shou stood with his hands folded under moonlight.

He casually raised his crimson belt, which emitted a faint glow.

"The Emperor Rider Belt, weighing ninety-nine pounds and six ounces—it's the masterpiece painstakingly crafted by none other than myself. Swipe to hack accounts, endless fun guaranteed!"

Chairman Wang: "..."

Li Mu: "..."

Crowd: "..."

What's happening?

A duel, right?

Can we get serious here? Hello??

Chairman Wang's cheeks twitched relentlessly as he slowly pulled out a silver Divine Light Stick.

The two men beside him also retrieved unfamiliar Transformation Devices unheard of by Qin Shou.

In an instant, Dark Energy erupted into the sky, endless dark clouds smothered the moonlight, enveloping the land, while Dark Thunder raged across the Forbidden City, striking wildly. Three colossal Dark Giants descended from the black clouds and shattered large sections of buildings upon impact.

Silver-black Giant—Evil Ultraman Tiga!

And two fiercely grotesque extra giants.

Judging by their style, they seemed to hail from the Lu Lu Ye ruins.

Transformed into Evil Tiga, Chairman Wang's confidence surged.

Looking down at the insignificant "ant-like" Qin Shou, his lips curled into a cruel grin.

"Hehe, just a random pirate knight—watch as I crush you to pieces!"

With a wave of his hand, the two Dark Giants lifted their massive feet to stomp down on Qin Shou.

Qin Shou glanced at the giants and casually drew a card embossed with the image of a Light Giant.

"I already said: swipe to hack accounts—did you think I was joking?"

With that, he slotted the card into his belt, and an immense burst of Light Energy shot skyward, easily repelling the Dark Giants and shattering the dark clouds overhead. The moonlight returned to earth.

"What? Impossible..."

"Can someone tell me why the Emperor Rider Belt can hack Ultraman accounts!!!"

The crowd was utterly dumbfounded.
