I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon Chapter 194 - New Customer (2)

Chapter 194: New Customer (2)

Ling Pingan was lying on the counter lazing around.

“If I knew it would be so troublesome…” he muttered, “I wouldn’t have started the b.u.t.ter ripening!”

For the whole afternoon, he only did one thing, which was wrapping the b.u.t.ter around the beef.

It sounded very simple.

But when he did it…

Anyway, he had been busy for the whole afternoon. His head was dizzy, so he barely wrapped the beef!

He swore!

He would never do such a stupid thing again!

He looked up at the clock hanging on the wall. It was almost ten o’clock.

“Have I been lying down for so long?” He scratched his head. He remembered that he came downstairs at seven o’clock, so…

“Sigh…” the young web novelist could not help but sigh. “I can only work harder tomorrow!”

His novel writing work that day was still zero!

However, considering that he had to struggle back and forth for two to three months every time he wrote a new book, it was actually within the acceptable range!

As the saying goes…

“A good dish is not afraid of being served late…” he said, “Perhaps it is precise because of the spirit of a craftsman who strives for perfection like me that I can ascend to G.o.dhood with a book this time and prove the great achievement of as the sixth scholar of the Central Plains!”

As he said this, the young web novelist was spirited.

He firmly believed that the sixth scholar of the Central Plains would be only him!

Therefore, he sat up straight.

Then, he turned his head to look outside and suddenly frowned. “Why is there fog again?”

“It has only been quiet for a few days!”

Counting the time, it had only been quiet for four to five days at most?

“It doesn’t matter!” Ling Pingan reached out to pull the rolling gate down.

At this moment, he glanced at a figure from the corner of his eye and walked toward him in the fog.

“Eh!” Ling Pingan looked over carefully and saw a figure, which looked like a tired traveler.

… … … ..

Ran Bing walked in the fog.

She was cautious and full of vigilance.

She knew that if the fog could even kill a scarlet beast, there must be a secret that no one knew.

She slowly walked towards the source of the light.

As she approached, the scenery in front of her slowly appeared.

It was the same as the streets of the Old World.

The buildings with red bricks stood in the fog.

The lights were reflected from one of the buildings.

Ran Bing looked over and saw a figure at the door.

“A human?” She was stunned.

There was a human on the ground?!

According to the investigation, wasn’t there no life on the ground other than the Scarlet Beasts and other monsters?

Even plants and spore plants didn’t grow anymore!

“What is this place?” Ran Bing asked herself.

In the end, she decided to ask that person.

So, she stopped and walked over.

When she got closer, the fog around her gradually faded away.

When she walked to the front of the building, there was no longer any trace of the fog.

So, she saw the ‘person’ in her eyes.

He…

The fog surrounded his head, and two flames gradually rose in the head that was covered by the fog.

It seemed to be his eyes?

She lowered her head to look at his lower body.

He was wearing clothes that could only be seen in the newspapers and books of the Old World. It was very simple and did not have any defensive power.

He did not have any weapons on him either.

If it was not for the fog encircling his head and the two flames…

Ran Bing almost thought that she had arrived in a city before the old world collapsed.

The other party had noticed Ran Bing as well, so he walked out.

As he approached, Ran Bing could feel the fog behind her boiling and cheering.

It was as if this strange person was the owner of this fog, the king of this world of fog!

… ..

Ling Pingan walked up to the pedestrian in the middle of the night.

He looked at the person.

She was wearing an old uniform. He couldn’t tell what brand it was.

But he was sure that it was of good quality!

There was a holster on her waist, and on her back was a sniper rifle that looked like an imitation.

There was a row of imitation grenades tied to her abdomen.

One look, and he knew that she was a player who was addicted to PUBG!

Thus, Ling Pingan pondered.

That was a big customer!

Just look at the equipment on her body and you would know that it was impossible to get it without tens of thousands of dollars!

Moreover…

Ling Pingan felt that she had the intention to spend money!

He knew just by looking at her face!

Her fair skin was covered with dust.

What did this mean? It meant that she was willing to immerse into the game and was willing to invest. She was even willing to put a layer of dust on her face for the sake of authenticity!

However…

“How should I persuade her to enter the shop to spend money?” Ling Pingan started to use his brain to think.

Very soon, he had an idea.

“Customer…” he smiled as he went forward and said, “It’s been hard on you during the battle. Do you want to enter the shop to rest?”

Ran Bing looked at the strange person in front of her with full vigilance.

His voice sounded calm and gentle.

However, when Ran Bing heard it, she could feel that there was a hidden meaning in his words.

Especially when he said, “It’s been hard on you during the battle.”.

“Does he know about me?” Ran Bing thought.

So, she carefully reached for the holster at her waist.

She felt a little insecure!

But…

She did not touch the pistol at her waist.

What she touched was a smooth, cold object that was like a tentacle.

That thing slowly wrapped around her hand.

The terrifying feeling made Ran Bing’s skin crawl.

And so, Ran Bing finally knew.

She did not encounter a weird person or a monster!

But…

A mythical grade demon!

“Is the Church of Light’s story true?” Ran Bing could not help but think.

After the great collapse, the survivors swarmed into the floating city.

In the midst of despair and crisis, various religions took advantage of the situation and gradually took over the mainstream of the floating city.

The floating city where Ran Bing was located was controlled by the Church of Light.

The Church of Light claimed that it was because the humans of the Old World did not believe in the G.o.d of Light, which triggered the wrath of G.o.d, that they brought disaster and destroyed the Old World!

As long as they wholeheartedly believed in and followed the teachings of the G.o.d of light, they could survive the monsters and the Apocalypse!

In the past, Ran Bing scoffed at this!

Because of the so-called Church of Light, other than hiding in the floating city and playing tricks, they were not even dared to enter the ground!

Naturally, they could not deceive a warrior like Ran Bing, who had a narrow escape from death on the ground, battling against the Scarlet Beasts and all kinds of monsters.

But now…

Ran Bing looked at the strange person in front of her and felt the fear and trepidation that came from the depths of her soul.

She had to believe that perhaps the Church of Light was right about some things.

G.o.ds or similar existences did indeed exist!

This was the best example!

But…

Was he the one who had destroyed the Old World?

What did the Scarlet Beasts have to do with him?

Was he a friend or a foe?

However, Ran Bing did not have time to think about it.

That was because the strange man had already sent an invitation. “Why don’t you go to the store and take a look?”

“The store has many books about fighting, survival, and victory!”

“Perhaps, there’s one that you like!”

As he spoke, the tentacle that had quietly wrapped itself around Ran Bing’s hand slowly disappeared.

Strength appeared behind her and pushed her over.

Vaguely, Ran Bing felt something slip past her neck.

At the moment of contact, the most direct threat and intimidation reached Ran Bing’s brain. “Go in, or… die!”

Of course, Ran Bing did not want to die.

She still wanted to go back.

She still wanted to live!

She wanted to figure out the truth behind the collapse of the Old World and the relations.h.i.+p between the umbrella and the Scarlet Beast!

So, she took a deep breath and nodded at the strange man in front of her. “Okay!”

The man seemed to be delighted. The fire in the fog rose because of this. “Welcome to the humble store!” He pushed the door open and said very enthusiastically.

But…

The strange feeling behind him, the feeling from before.

Ran Bing did not dare to use normal thinking to understand his words.

Welcome…

The Church of Light also often said to the commoners, “The G.o.d of light welcomes every believer!”

In the end, what the Church of Light wanted was not their faith.

But their limited food, medicine, and even their lives!

So…

What did this strange man in the fog want?

Ran Bing wasn’t sure, but she could only brace herself and walked in.

As she pa.s.sed by him, Ran Bing could feel every cell in her body was filled with fear.

It was as if what she was facing wasn’t as simple as a monster.

It was as if this strange man was fear, terror, and despair!

As she entered the door, Ran Bing was immediately shocked by what she saw.

In front of her…

A pitch-black, silent, and terrifying Abyss was reflected in her eyes!

Even the light from this shop could not s.h.i.+ne into the pitch-black and silent abyss.

Something thick like asphalt was slowly circulating at the edge of the Abyss.

In the depths of the abyss, countless terrifying evil eyes opened and closed one after another.

With just one look, Ran Bing immediately lowered her head.

Her intuition told her that if she looked again, something bad would happen!

Meow!

At some point, a little black kitten appeared at Ran Bing’s feet.

Kitten?

Ran Bing looked at this little kitten and felt very conflicted!

Because after the great collapse, along with the destruction of the Old World, human society was completely changed!

Not to mention pets, even family relations.h.i.+ps had completely disappeared.

Father and son, husband and wife, brother, had become the nouns of history!

However, here, in this mysterious fog, the so-called ‘humble store’.

There was a kitten, a pet that she had read about in books, living freely.

“He might not be malicious!” Ran Bing turned her head and looked at the strange man who was walking over.

The fog-shrouded him and surrounded him.

Two flames slowly lingered in the area that seemed to be the eye sockets.

Meow!

The kitten beside Ran Bing’s feet nimbly jumped onto the counter at the side and then onto his shoulder.

“This is my pet…” the man seemed to be smiling as he said, “Its name is Bastet!”

“Come, Little Darling…” he said, “Say h.e.l.lo to the customer!”

Meow!

The little black kitten purred softly.

Ran Bing smiled, wanting to respond.

But…

Her smile froze on her face.

Because she saw that behind the little cat, there was a reflection of a pyramid surrounded by countless rays of light!

In the pyramid, countless wors.h.i.+ps and prayers came one after another.

Sacred and magnificent hymns, solemn and epic chants intersected with each other!

Was that even a kitten?

It was a G.o.d!

A G.o.d with countless believers!

And this G.o.d was only the pet of this strange person in the fog!?

Ran Bing finally could not suppress the excitement in her heart.

She tried hard to make herself brave, and then gathered her courage to ask, “Sir, what… do you sell here?”

The man chuckled and pointed to the pitch-black Abyss and the terrifying Abyss in front of them. “As you can see…”

He said, “I sell knowledge here!”

“Not only do I have combat knowledge!”

“I also have all kinds of secret knowledge!”

“As long as you have heard of the knowledge, I have it here!”

“I probably have what you haven’t heard of here too!”

“In short, customer!” He emphasized seriously, “You came to this humble store for the right reason!”

Combat knowledge?

Ran Bing thought, “What kind of combat knowledge?”

It was not ordinary combat knowledge.

It might have combat knowledge on how to truly kill the Scarlet Beast!

Secret knowledge?

It must have something to do with the collapse of the Old World, right?

What she hadn’t heard of?

Does the legend of the Church of Light count?

Does the legend of the church of the other floating cities count?

Hadn’t heard of it?

Are there more secrets hidden in the world that no one knows about?

Ran Bing thought about this and asked tentatively, “Sir, have you heard of Umbrella?”

“Umbrella?” The other party seemed to be puzzled for a moment before shrugging his shoulders. “That s.h.i.+t company famous of its bad names?”

In the Federal Empire, if one wanted to vote for the game company that was most disliked by the players.

Founded 30 years ago, it was rumored that the late Emperor had authorized the establishment of the company, and the company ‘Umbrella’ that was secretly owned by the Imperial Family’s funds. It was worthy of being number one!

Why?

The company operated countless games that were widely praised by the players.

In the early days of online games, there were legends and miracles.

What a scam these two games were. The older generation of players had enough blood and tears!

Ten years ago, umbrella released a new game: LOL.

Grand scholars Zu’an had enough opinions to express, and at least a million people wanted to greet the ancestors of the annoying company. Oh, they probably didn’t have one!

Three years ago, they launched the canyon mobile game.

Ling Pingan was still addicted to it to this day!

Therefore, all the federation players, the old, middle, and young generations, had an unprecedentedly unified opinion on one issue: The games were all good, but the operations were real s.h.i.+t!

The players were displeased. The daily planning and operation of s.h.i.+t were all routine operations!

..

The s.h.i.+t company?

Ran Bing’s hands trembled.

“He knows… he knows… he even came into contact with it…”

That meant that he probably knew everything about the Old World, and even knew how the disaster in the Old World Happened?

But…

“Will he tell me?” Ran Bing didn’t know.

After thinking for a while, she could only ask tentatively, “Sir, can you recommend it?”

That was probably the best way.

The man did not reject this suggestion and was even delighted!

“Customer!” He said to Ran Bing, “Please sit down and wait for a moment!”

Then, he hummed and walked towards the Dark Abyss.
