Chapter 572 - 390: Just This
Yan Haoming’s occiput was tightly gripped by five fingers, and then, before he could react, it was ferociously slammed onto the floor of the treehouse!
"Bang!"
A loud crash accompanied by a sudden cut-off scream.
Then Yan Haoming’s body went limp, and his hands and feet began to twitch.
...This scene felt somewhat familiar.
Lou Fei’Er didn’t stop there.
She grabbed Yan Haoming’s head again and slammed it violently onto the ground once more.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
This time, his limbs no longer twitched, just went completely limp, letting Lou Fei’Er pick up and smash down at will.
"Bang!"
"Enough!" Seeing this, Xu Xin quickly stopped her.
These few hits were ruthless enough.
If this continued, the man might not survive.
Lou Fei’Er let go, allowing Yan Haoming’s body to slump directly onto the ground.
His head was already bloodied.
On the treehouse floor, there were marks and bloodstains from the impact.
There’s even a pool of blood being absorbed and fading by the treehouse’s self-cleaning function.
"That’s it?"
Lou Fei’Er flexed her wrist, which was a bit uncomfortable due to the sudden exertion, looking at the slumped Yan Haoming with a pout.
"That’s it? I thought he was really tough, I hesitated to strike just now, turns out... just like this? And he dared to act so arrogant in front of me?"
She had repeatedly smashed Yan Haoming’s head out of fear that he was strong, that one hit wouldn’t knock him out, wouldn’t injure him significantly,
But it seemed the guy was knocked out all in one go.
Currently, she was in a weakened state, with only half her strength.
This guy was no match.
She kicked the back of Yan Haoming’s head.
Xu Xin stepped closer, flipped Yan Haoming over with his foot, and checked his condition.
Judging by his breath and eyelid activity, he was indeed unconscious.
No problem at all.
He stood up, looked at Lou Fei’Er expressionlessly, "Who told you to strike?"
He hadn’t signaled Lou Fei’Er to act.
Her actions were completely self-directed.
"I..."
Lou Fei’Er was still immersed in the exhilaration following the attack, feeling the thrill of a racing heartbeat.
While despising the waste on the ground.
Being questioned by Xu Xin, she quickly calmed down, forcing an awkward smile, "I... I couldn’t help it, just now his stance with his back to me was really too perfect for striking..."
Moreover, Yan Haoming had been so annoying, annoying enough to make her hands and teeth itch throughout.
His words earlier had been infuriating enough to boil her blood!
Given the chance, she couldn’t hold back, had to act!
Almost messed up badly...
She lowered her head, afraid to speak.
This time, she had indeed acted on her own accord.
Done for, will she be punished...
Won’t be sent into the bracelet again, right...
Xu Xin then, upon confirming Yan Haoming was indeed unconscious, took off his backpack and wristwatch.
Then released the Treasure Chest Monster from the bracelet.
The Treasure Chest Monster had a wide bloody mouth, swaying side to side.
To avoid any issues should he wake up, Xu Xin immediately let the Treasure Chest Monster swallow him down.
Then collected the Treasure Chest Monster back.
Meanwhile, he began searching through Yan Haoming’s backpack.
Three treehouse seeds and three treehouse cores.
...Considered the relics of their Zone 188 survivors.
He decided to keep them on their behalf.
His treehouse area indeed lacked a few parasitic treehouses.
Besides that, the backpack contained some blue-grade fruits, some basic materials.
A few blue-grade stone tools, and a green-grade iron weapon, seemingly purchased from the trade platform.
The blue-grade iron axe was also in the backpack.
In addition, there were some decorations, limited purchases from the point store, yet he had multiples.
Presumably acquired from the treehouses of the survivors he had killed.
There was also his riding tool, a skateboard.
Indeed just an ordinary skateboard, yet he could ride it so swiftly.
Besides this, there was nothing else notable in the backpack.
His possessions were truly unremarkable.
He also accessed the watch, browsing the options in Yan Haoming’s treehouse system.
Went through every bit, but didn’t find any special options like [Alchemy].
...Was he truly just an ordinary person with no abilities?
That couldn’t be, then why was his skateboard speed so fast?
Could it be because he was a skateboard expert on Earth?
Would a skateboard expert be that fast?
He checked Yan Haoming’s chat records again.
Found that Yan Haoming had conversed with Zone 187 boss Zhang Daoguang and some Zone 187 powerhouses including Lou Fei’Er.
The group he joined now included Lou Fei’Er, the powerhouse group of Zone 187.
The words he used... really...
His conversation with Zhang Daoguang wasn’t friendly.
Even had signs of confrontation.
The main reason being his words carried a provocative undertone, irritating Zhang Daoguang.
Not just Zhang Daoguang, even Xu Xin felt a bit annoyed reading the records.
Completely insidious sarcasm.
Was this guy doing it purposely?
Or was this just his character, incredibly low emotional intelligence?
Even his private chats with others had that unpleasant aura.
However, he didn’t find traces of voice or video calls in these records.
That was at least a good thing.
