Starting With A Space Battleship-Chapter 31
Accidentally Become the Villain
Li Xiaonian stole Earth Dragon One away.
Before long, Xiaolang and Lang Burang received this news one after the other.
Xiaolang’s first reaction was silence, with a sense of powerlessness.
From the moment he met Li Xiaonian, he had been led by the nose by that guy, never winning even the slightest bit from the beginning to the end.
Especially this time. Li Xiaonian even set him up by claiming that he was one of the culprits in taking the minecart. He knew what kind of person Lang Burang was. Although Lang Burang said he trusted him, he knew he was already suspecting him.
In the Skyfire Base.
Lang Burang’s reaction was completely different from Xiaolang. When he learned that the priceless minecart was taken away, his heart tingled with rage, his face turned purple, and he almost passed out with anger. “Li Xiaonian! Good, very good. I swear I’ll get even with you! You messed with the wrong person!”
And his face suddenly turned weirdly calm. He had made up his mind to try every possible means to wipe Li Xiaonian out of this game.
He would make Li Xiaonian’s father lose his job in the real world. And in the game world, he would pay a huge price and hire NPCs to kill Li Xiaonian, and then use the sealing scroll to seal Li Xiaonian permanently.
By then, Li Xiaonian’s family would have no source of income, and their only chance was to kneel down and beg for his mercy.
Lang Burang seemed to see Li Xiaonian kneeling in front of him, crying and begging for his mercy. He couldn’t help laughing crazily. “Hahaha… let’s wait and see. I must make you kneel for three days and three nights, then cruelly humiliate you and refuse you. This is the price you have to pay for offending me.”
…
At this moment.
Fifty meters underground, Li Xiaonian had arrived outside the Skyfire Base with the Earth Dragon One.
He glanced at the message bar and found Gu Tong had already replied to his message with only two simple words ‘good luck’, while Kitten hadn’t replied to his message although she was online.
“I’m not waiting for her. I’ll just do it myself.”
He immediately clicked on the navigation function to search for the location of the jail, then reduced the speed of Earth Dragon One to the lowest, and slowly approached the jail.
Now he was only a few hundred meters away from the jail, but in order to reduce the noise, Li Xiaonian was driving the minecart as slowly as possible.
As he was approaching the jail, Wufeng’s mysterious voice sounded in his mind. “Is it you, June?”
Li Xiaonian paused and responded, “Yes, it’s me. How can I rescue you?”
Wufeng could only probe vaguely with his perception, so he wasn’t sure if the one approaching from under the ground was Li Xiaonian. After he got a positive response, his face distorted with excitement.
Suppressing the excitement, Wufeng said calmly, “Didn’t Kuiluo tell you how to rescue me?”
“Well… I can’t show up at the base due to some special reasons, so I can’t contact Kuiluo temporarily.”
Wufeng was silent for a moment and then said, “The jail where I am being held has strong seals on all sides, including the ground. The only way you can rescue me is to break the seals from the outside. If you have any weapon that can cause damage more than 500 points, you can just blast the seals, but if you don’t, find a way to contact Kuiluo. He will give you the equipment you need.”
500 points of damage?
Li Xiaonian took a look at the [Armor-piercing Heavy Machine Gun], and then at the impact auger bit of [Earth Dragon One]. Either of them could cause damage of over 500 points.
“I have a weapon like that, but what if the guards discover it when I break into this jail?”
Although the guards were also only level-10, their skill levels and equipment were much better than players. He didn’t want to be killed by the guards.
Wufeng trembled but still calmly said, “After you enter the jail, the first thing you must do is to remove the seal on my body. Then I’ll take care of the guards. Don’t worry.”𝐟𝙧ee𝔀e𝐛𝓃𝐨𝚟𝑒𝗹.c𝗼𝚖
“Okay, can I get started now?”
“Yes, remember, the first thing you must do is to remove the seal on my body.”
Li Xiaonian gritted his teeth and turned the horsepower of [Earth Dragon One] to the maximum.
Boom!
Like a roaring tiger, Earth Dragon One sprinted upward, but soon, its auger bit hit the seal on the ground, which made its huge body pause for a while.
Creak~Creak~
The drill bit of [Earth Dragon One] spun frantically, rubbing against the extremely hard ground and producing flying sparks.
In only four seconds, the seal on the ground was pierced.
The huge Earth Dragon One hurtled out of the ground and entered the empty jail.
It was the first time Li Xiaonian saw the inside of the jail.
The whole jail was boxy, surrounded by a semi-transparent imprisonment circle, which was painted with various runes.
Wufeng was a middle-aged man with white hair. Now he was chained to his limbs by thick chains. His face was bloodlessly pale, and from a distance, he looked like a pale mummy.
Such a big noise alarmed the entire jail. Seeing a hideous minecart suddenly appear in the jail, all the guards turned pale.
The warden yelled, “Come on, immediately notify the leader that someone has broken into the jail. Now all the guards attack the Confining Seal with me. Once the Confining Seal is broken, kill the intruder as soon as possible! We must not let Wufeng escape.”
The warden began to ferociously hit the Confining Seal with the giant sickle he held, and the guards hurriedly followed him to attack the seal.
Clang~
Clang~
…
The key to the Confining Seal was on the leader. Only by breaking the Confining Seal could they enter the jail and stop Li Xiaonian.
“Come on, remove the seal on me!” Wufeng looked very anxious.
Li Xiaonian quickly got out of the minecart and came to Wufeng. “I just need to break the Forbidden Collar on your neck, right?”
“Yes, yes. The Forbidden Collar seems powerful, but it’s actually fragile.” Wufeng explained excitedly.
Li Xiaonian curled his lips. He knew what [Forbidden Collar] was. This prop was expensive but very fragile. Once it was put on, however, the trapped person would become feeble and unable to use any of his abilities.
Li Xiaonian took out the [Blaster Pistol] and aimed it at the Forbidden Collar on Wufeng’s neck.
Seeing Li Xiaonian’s actions, the warden shouted in horror, “No, don’t do it. Once Wufeng escapes, the entire Skyfire Base will be destroyed, and you will become a permanent sinner.”
“Humph, do you think I’ll believe you?”
Li Xiaonian sneered and pulled the trigger.
Bang, bang, bang!
Three shots.
A slight crack appeared in the Forbidden Collar.
As soon as the crack appeared, Wufeng’s body gradually swelled up like an inflated balloon. With a ‘click’, the Forbidden Collar burst under his growing neck.
Without restraint, Wufeng’s body was inflating even faster. At the same time, black tadpole-like runes crawled all over his body, a pair of hideous fangs emerged from his mouth, and his eyes turned from black to red.
Not only that, a pair of black horns appeared on Wufeng’s forehead.
“…”
Seeing Wufeng’s appearance, Li Xiaonian instantly turned ghastly pale.
He was not a novice player. This Wufeng in front of him was none other than the Lord of Hell who was in the demonized state.
Hell represented death.
Wherever the Lord of Hell passed, everything would be turned into ruins, and the people would be plunged into an abyss of misery.
“Hahaha… I’m finally free!!” The hideous-faced Wufeng laughed out loud. Then he looked down at Li Xiaonian. “Boy, you are very good. I owe you one. When I destroy the Skyfire Base, I’ll bestow the Spark of Death upon you, which will increase your strength tenfold.”
“…OK, thank you, Boss.”fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m
Li Xiaonian reluctantly responded with a smile that was uglier than crying.
He didn’t dare to refuse Wufeng because if he did, what awaited him would be nothing but death. Even when he met the Lord of Hell in his previous life, all he could do was run away in a panic.
As for the Spark of Death?
He certainly didn’t dare to accept it. Once he did, he would become a part of the hell camp. Then if he wanted to improve his strength, he would have to kill frantically, and the targets of the killing would be players and NPCs.
Although the players in the hell camp could increase their strength very quickly, they would be resented by everyone, as obnoxious to people as rats crossing the street.
Not only that, but the government also didn’t allow players to join the hell camp. If any player was discovered to do it, he would be deprived of the right to enter “Star Wind” forever.
The reason was simple: joining the hell camp would distort one’s outlook on the world and life, and easily lead him to resent and take revenge on society.
