Chapter 284 They are too weak
Mercer is here.
Like a gust of wind, coming silently.
As soon as he arrived, the situation on the scene immediately reversed.
Fan Lu's arrogance was like encountering the cold winter of December. It was extinguished in an instant, without even a spark.
"Hey, why isn't that guy talking?" A player outside the store laughed softly.
"You must be scared." said another player.
The two men's voices were very low, but the perception of psychic creatures was extremely sharp.
Fan Lu naturally heard it. His face turned ugly, veins popped on his forehead, and he was suppressing a surge of anger.
He really didn't expect that Mercer would come in person.
In the past few years, Mercer has hardly ever appeared in public and has been guarding the laboratory underground. Even many high-ranking members of the Mechanical Clan don't know where he has gone.
Now, is he finally going to stop lying dormant?
Although they were both level five creatures, Fan Lu sensed a vague sense of danger from Moser.
Su Xia stood in the corner of the pharmacy, watching everything silently. Now he didn't need to do anything, just leave everything to the mechanical clan.
"Master Su, please come closer, in case we get hurt accidentally when the fight breaks out." Liu Liangmu behind him spoke in a low voice, pulled Su Xia, and then moved back to leave some space for Su Xia.
"Um."
Su Xia didn't refute and leaned towards the corner.
On the other side, Lan Bafu helped Hong Bafu to stand up and walked to the corner by the window, intending to jump out if he saw that the situation was not right.
The glass of the window had been broken in the previous chaos among the players and had not been repaired yet, so cold wind was blowing in.
Outside the shop, the less powerful players also retreated, leaving only one or two players with special abilities behind, hoping to closely record what was about to happen.
"If not handled properly, it could turn into a melee among high-level NPCs." A player said this in the team chat system.
"Then we will become the first witnesses!"
"Turn on the screen recording system!"
"Once the fight starts, the game officials will definitely promote it, just like the last time the masked monster attacked Fish Scale City. Will we be included in the promotional video?"
Many players were very excited and came to watch the fun. They climbed up to the rooftops on both sides of the old street, ready to record the most perfect battle video.
The battles between high-level NPCs would definitely be grand scenes, just like the dozens of planes that flew across the sky in Fish Scale City before .
Others worried: "The fighting will definitely destroy the pharmacy."
It would be terrible if the stock in the basement of the pharmacy was destroyed.
Su Xia hasn't started recruiting disciples yet. Once the stock is gone, it will be quite unrealistic to supply a large number of players in the future.
In the shop, Su Xia carefully sensed the momentum of both sides and felt that... the possibility of a fight was not high.
"The mechanical army has just returned, and most of the mechanical warriors have not returned to the base to sleep." Su Xia thought silently, "They are around the city. Once they take action, they can enter the city at any time, just like the Fish Scale City did to me, and block the entire world."
By then, no matter how strong Fan Lu and others are, they will have to die in Coral City.
In this era, the power of an individual is ultimately no match for firepower coverage.
The possibility of conquering the world by personal strength is almost zero, unless we go back to the era of cold weapons.
According to Hal's information, in the starry sky, there are high-level psychic creatures who violate the imperial agreement and go to the low-level civilization planets on the edge of remote star fields. They show their personal strength on the planets dominated by cold weapons, and are finally revered as gods, doing whatever they want on those planets.
"Merser, this is none of your business!"
Fan Lu finally spoke, his tone as tough as before, and he seemed unwilling to give in.
Moser looked indifferent: "Didn't you ask me to come?"
"Then you can go now!"
"Come when you call me, and go when you wave me away?" Moser asked calmly, "This is Coral City, not your Zero Point Tavern."
"What else do you want?"
"Zero Point Tavern, what we've been doing lately has gone a little over the line."
The cool breeze of the evening blew by, causing Mercer's black tuxedo to flutter, and his plain words floated into the shop.
The other members of the tavern were all nervous. Did Moser's words represent the attitude of the Mechanical Clan? Were they going to fall out now?
But the negotiations over there haven’t started yet!
Thin beads of cold sweat appeared on the foreheads of several people. Their faces turned pale and they were extremely anxious. They just wanted to leave now and send a message to the tavern headquarters immediately.
If a fight really breaks out, no one knows how many people will die on both sides, and they don't want to be the fuse of this battle.
"cough……"
One of them coughed lightly, implicitly reminding Fan Lu to retreat immediately.
Another person stood behind and tugged at the corner of Fan Lu's clothes.
But Fan Lu refused to give in, and said coldly with a sullen face: "Mo Se, do you want to use your power to overwhelm others?"
"Use your power to oppress others?" Moser smiled faintly, "You can oppress the weak, why can't I?"
"Weak?"
Fan Lu's face turned pale, and he instantly realized that Moser was mocking him.
"You can think so." Mo Se did not comment.
"How should this matter end today?" Fan Lu's voice was filled with suppressed anger. He actually knew that taking a step back was the best option, but he didn't want to retreat, even if the other party was the mysterious Moser.
"There is a large war ruins in the south of the city. That's a good place." Mercer gave an option.
The implication is that either you go there and fight, or let the situation continue to escalate.
As things developed to this point, Fan Lu and others were actually half-weakened because they had no choice.
Fan Lu gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, let's fight!"
We still have to fight after all!
It is better to resolve it in a private fight than to have two major forces go to war head-on.
The battle took place not in the pharmacy, but in the ruins in the south of the city. This was the best scenario, at least the potions in the store could be saved.
The ruins in the south of the city are quite large, with collapsed buildings everywhere, rusty steel bars and broken concrete slabs everywhere, and countless tenacious weeds taking root in the ruins, adding a breath of life to the place.
Many legendary stories have taken place in this area.
For example, the battle between the masked man and Yu Tuo.
The fledgling masked man escaped from the hands of the long-famous Yu Tuo, became famous, and started his own legendary journey.
"boom--"
Mercer flew up into the sky and headed straight for that area at an astonishing speed, leaving only one indifferent word: "Don't make me wait too long."
“Damn it!”
Fan Lu punched the pillar of the pharmacy to vent the anger he had just suppressed.
The poor pillar was smashed and broke into two pieces with a snap, and the half that supported the top fell to the floor with a thud.
The entire pharmacy shook, the warm yellow chandelier swayed, dust fell from the ceiling, the shelves around it collapsed, and bottles and jars were broken all over the floor.
Fortunately, the pillars around the store are still standing and will not collapse for the time being.
But it can almost be described as a "dangerous building".
Seeing this, Su Xia could only sigh.
This troubled pharmacy...
The next major modification would require replacing all wooden structures with extremely strong alloys, and installing a complete defense system with all kinds of weapons.
"It would be best to rent a set of stand equipment from Anluo Company." Su Xia touched his chin and thought.
If any psychic creature dares to cause trouble again, I will just confront it and pin it to the ground and beat it.
It is impossible for Su Xia to be in charge of the pharmacy forever. He has a lot of things to do. He has to go to the surrounding cities to find more material suppliers, and also find a way to save Yi Mo and Shen Yu.
Once he left, only the two brothers Lan Bafu and Hong Bafu were left in the shop.
They have strong talent for potions, but their combat prowess is a bit tragic.
With the help of the stand device, the two of them can better protect the pharmacy.
"Bang!"
Just as Su Xia was thinking, a large piece of ceiling suddenly fell down and hit the floor in front of him, causing dust to rise.
The renovation of the store cannot be delayed any longer.
Seeing this scene, the eyelids of several other members of the Zero Point Tavern jumped. One of them took out a check, walked up to Su Xia and said, "I'm really sorry to have caused you trouble today."
Due to the appearance of Moser and Yutuo, the attitudes of these people were obviously much better than before.
Su Xia was of course not polite, she took the check directly, smiled and said: "It's okay, come more often when you have time, I was planning to renovate the store, and I was worried about not having enough money."
“…”
Several people were speechless.
They gave the check out of respect for the Mechanical Clan, but they didn't expect this guy to go further.
Fan Lu turned around, glared at Su Xia fiercely, and said, "Not many people get the money from the midnight bar so easily!"
"Eh? Why haven't you left yet?" Su Xia shook the check, "Isn't Lord Moser waiting for you? Are you scared?"
"snort!"
Fan Lu snorted coldly and walked out of the pharmacy with anger.
No matter what, this battle must be fought, and he didn't dare let Mercer wait too long.
As he and Mercer left, the players outside the store also ran towards the ruins area in the south of the city, each of them turning on the screen recording system the entire time, for fear of missing any details of the battle.
Outside the store, Yu Tuo looked at the remaining tavern members and gestured to them, "Ladies and gentlemen, let's go too."
"Okay, I'll go with you." A stronger member came out.
"No……"
Yu Tuo shook his head slightly and said, "I mean, you all should come together."
Hearing this, several people's faces changed at the same time, and one of them asked: "Lord Yutuo, is this really necessary?"
"Um."
"Okay then!"
There weren't too many members of the tavern, so they immediately set out for the ruins in the south of the city.
They all thought they were quite strong and if they joined forces they would not be defeated by Yu Tuo.
Just like that, Yu Tuo and those guys left, and another battle was about to begin.
The players were all very excited, and they all ran over as if it was Chinese New Year. "This is really rare, two high-level NPC battles, I haven't seen it in such a long time since the server was launched!"
"Pharmacist Su, let's go watch the fight first and come back to register later!" someone shouted.
"good."
Su Xia answered at the door , turned around and walked back into the store, walked into the basement, and carried out a rusty steel pipe.
This steel pipe is as thick as an arm and is hollow in the middle, but it is quite heavy.
"Bang!"
Su Xia held up the steel pipe and smashed it hard into the wooden floor in the center of the room.
In an instant, wood chips flew everywhere, the entire floor was smashed through, and the steel pipe stood upright steadily.
At the door of the store, Bing Lei had not left yet and asked curiously, "Brother Su, what are you doing? You got a pole, are you looking for someone to dance with you?"
Su Xia: “…”
He pointed at the ceiling speechlessly. The middle pillar was broken and there was no support. He was afraid that the entire second floor would collapse.
For now, we'll just get some steel pipes to hold it up for a few days until a renovation plan for the pharmacy comes out.
After doing all this, he logged into Coral City’s personnel management system, found the contact number of the urban construction department, and called them.
"Master Su?" The person who answered the phone was surprised, and soon became enthusiastic, "If Master Su needs anything, we will definitely do our best to help!"
"Well, here's the thing. My pharmacy..."
Su Xia held the phone with a long cord, sat on the counter, and carefully stated her needs.
The other side agreed repeatedly, saying that everything was fine and that the entire city's construction department could stop work to make way for Su Xia.
After getting a positive answer, Su Xia hung up the phone.
"Brother Su, aren't you planning to go watch the fight over there?" Bing Lei also planned to go over and asked before leaving.
"You go first, I'll be there soon." Su Xia was going of course.
Fan Lu and Mo Se, both of them are his opponents, and they will definitely face off in the future.
Su Xia plans to see their fighting style, skills, characteristics, etc. Knowing yourself and the enemy will help you win every battle. This is a good opportunity.
He quickly checked Hong Bafu's injuries and found that there was no problem. He just had a small cut on his forehead when he fell down the stairs.
The two also wanted to go and see the battle in the south of the city, but Su Xia asked them to stay.
"Stay and recuperate." Su Xia said.
The battle between level five creatures is very terrifying, and innocent passers-by may be harmed if you are not careful.
All those players who ran over just now were risking their lives as spectators, and they had already prepared themselves mentally to die several times.
After tidying up the pharmaceutical information on the counter, Su Xia planned to go over.
But at this moment, an ordinary robot suddenly came to the door, blue light flashing in its eyes, and walked into the pharmacy.
"Lord Yu Tuo?" Su Xia recognized him. This was Yu Tuo's ordinary clone.
"Yeah." Yu Tuo nodded.
"My Lord, this is..."
"Give me a portion of that fifth-level potion."
"I'll get it right away!" Su Xia immediately turned around and went back to the basement.
It seems that Yu Tuo has set his eyes on the highly corrosive potion, which can even corrode special metals and pure energy.
Yu Tuo only wanted one copy, but Su Xia took three copies, put them in a small silver box, and returned to the first floor.
"Lord Yutuo, it's in here." Su Xia handed over the box.
"good."
Yu Tuo opened the box, took a look, nodded slightly, and was very satisfied.
He said to Su Xia, "Let's go and watch those two fight. I can keep you safe."
Su Xia asked, "Master Yu Tuo, aren't you going to fight with the others? Will being distracted have any impact?"
"No, those guys are too weak, not worth my full effort."
If word of this got out, those tavern members would probably cry.
They thought they were strong enough, but they didn't expect that Yu Tuo didn't take them seriously at all. He was distracted and had the time to take Su Xia to watch a fight.
It is even possible that he is split into three parts, with another body in the underground laboratory researching new clones.
Thinking of this, Su Xia couldn't help but sigh.
Robots are convenient. You can easily create a few clones to go on adventures. As long as you back up their own data, you don’t have to worry about death. Even the protagonists in novels don’t have this treatment.
"Lord Yuta, is that masked weirdo worthy of your full efforts?"
"certainly!"
Yu Tuo looked into the distance with a deep gaze.
His strength has increased a lot recently and he is on the verge of a breakthrough.
"I'm always looking forward to my next fight with him!"
