Chapter 55: A Newcomer Who Wasn’t Recognized for a While
I didn't do anything else today. I just took it slow and steady. As long as I'm not discovered, I can slowly beat up those human traffickers later.
Overall, it feels good to be an unsung hero. Zhang Da also experienced a little bit of the fun of Peter Parker wearing a mask as Spider-Man and Lu Xiaoqian covering his face as a flying man.
Unfortunately, there are only 300 ml of invisible ink in total. If three people go out at the same time, they can only use it ten times in total. If they want to continue to act in the future, they must either improve their efficiency or get a set of equipment.
Or do it at night? I need to think about it carefully.
After doing good things in the morning and having a delicious meal at noon, the three of them were in a good mood. Zhang Da also wanted to relax after exercising, so he took out a deck of cards and a marker.
I explained the rules of drawing joker cards to Tom and Altria, and they understood them immediately.
So Zhang Da also took out a small joker and started to shuffle the cards.
Three people draw cards, and then take turns drawing the cards of the next player. If the cards in their hand form a pair, they can be thrown away. If they have only one king card left in their hand, they lose.
When Zhang Daya and Altria picked up the playing cards, they looked ordinary and nothing special.
As Tom had small hands and only four fingers, it was very inconvenient for him to touch all the cards, so he had to slowly open them with both hands like a folding fan, and then carefully pick out the pairs, looking very flustered.
Sometimes, when two cards were drawn, the other cards lost their support and a few cards fell down. Tom hurriedly covered them up, fearing that Zhang Daye and Altria would peek.
Zhang Daye found it very interesting and pretended to go and see what the fallen card was. Tom was so anxious that he twisted his body and faced his butt towards Zhang Daye. He only turned back after picking up the cards.
In the first round, Tom had thrown away all the cards in his hand early, Zhang Da had only an ace and a 6 left in his hand, and Altria only had a 6 in her hand.
When it comes to drawing joker cards, the greatest skill and fun lies in how to use your acting skills to influence the other party's choice, and to guess which card is safe from the other party's expression, so Zhang Da also started to make faces.
However, Altria didn't even look at his expression. She just stared at the two cards carefully for a while. Not finding any difference, she picked one at random, which was 6.
Altria threw down a pair of 6s: "Tatsuya, you lose."
Zhang Daye: “…” You don’t draw cards according to the rules.
Zhang Daye accepted the defeat and closed his eyes, letting Tom, the winner, pick up a marker and draw a black line on his face.
"Oh, hahaha..." Tom pointed at Zhang Da's funny appearance and laughed happily.
Infected by him, Artoria couldn't help but smile.
In the second round, Altria had the best luck. She was the first to throw away all the cards and picked up the teacup, leaving only Zhang Daye and Tom to compete.
Because the king was in Tom's hand, Tom's expression in this round was particularly interesting. Every time he drew Zhang Daye's cards and made a pair and threw them away, the expression on Tom's face was very happy, and every time Zhang Daye drew his cards, he would be nervous.
"Which one should I draw?" When Tom only had two cards left in his hand, Zhang Daye's hand hovered above the king. Tom immediately grinned, but when Zhang Daye moved his hand away, Tom's expression immediately changed to fear.
Is there any need to guess? Although Zhang Da didn't have the ability to read minds, Tom's face could speak. It was really too much of a bully. Zhang Da also smiled and took away a good card.
So, Tom closed his eyes in frustration and let Altria, who had thrown away her cards first, draw a line on his face.
The three of them played for nearly an hour. Zhang Daye and Altria drew circles of various sizes around Tom's nose, eyes and mouth, which amounted to many more than the five rings.
There is an extra character "王" on Zhang Daye's face, six whiskers, and some other patterns. Some of them were drawn by Tom, and some were drawn by Altria. But in the end, Tom was modified a little, and he could almost pretend to be a tiger by wearing dentures.
Only Altria's face was clean. Not to mention drawing the ace, even the number of times she got the ace when the cards were dealt was very few. This luck was simply cheating!
The game was over and Altria was enjoying the victory, only Zhang Daye and Tom were hurting each other.
After resting for a while, Zhang Da and Tom didn't wash their faces because they had agreed to keep the patterns until night as punishment.
Zhang Da also quietly went to the yard, picked up his sword and swung it vigorously, with absolutely no intention of venting his frustration.
Keep practicing until your energy is full, then start drawing as usual.
Under Zhang Daye's astonished gaze, 90% of the energy disappeared instantly, and the screen turned into tiny spots of light that fell on the ground in front, forming a magic circle with a diameter of one meter. This time the magic circle was white.
The white light in the yard attracted Tom and Altria, and they both knew that this meant the arrival of new partners.
The white light dissipated, and a figure appeared in the center of the magic circle:
He was wearing a white shirt, blue jeans, and a red plaid shirt tied around his waist. He was tall with delicate features, and his thick black hair was tied into a high ponytail. His slanted bangs covered half of his right eye, but for some reason he looked a little weak.
Zhang Da also stared and looked carefully for a few seconds - but he couldn't recognize who this newcomer was.
The newcomer rubbed his eyes, looked around, and after seeing two people and a cat, he said, "Hello everyone, I'm... Hey!??"
The newcomer showed a look of horror on his face and took half a step back.
Beauty, are you serious about taking a step back? Even if my face isn't handsome enough to make people fall in love at first sight, it's not scary, right?
Zhang Da also touched his face and found that his fingertips were stained black. Then he remembered that he still had a tiger face and said quickly: "Don't panic, I am a human being, wait for me to wash my face! Altria, please help entertain the newcomers."
"Okay, come in with me first." Altria nodded and said to the newcomer.
Zhang Da also pulled Tom to wash his face together. Let's put the game punishment aside for now.
"Oh, oh..." The newcomer calmed down and hesitantly followed Altria into the tavern.
Zhang Da and Tom went to the bathroom to wash their faces and took a look at the newcomer's profile:
Name: Rui Mengmeng
Aliases: Nox's Blade, Riven
Introduction: From the Super Seminary World, Juxia City, Ping County, Ruijia Village, has a super gene called Nuo Xing Jian Dao. Before coming here, he encountered a sly hand while working in a restaurant. It happened that Rui Mengmeng's super gene was awakened at this time, and he slapped the gangster into the hospital.
"Super Seminary?" Zhang Da also had the impression that the world was very complicated. If one wanted to become a strong person, one must first have super genes created through scientific means, and then one would need a lot of resource support.
Many people can even use their own "Void Engine" to directly modify the definition of people or things like a programmer, such as defining a certain space as a vacuum, modifying the gravity direction and air composition of a certain place, and even defining the enemy's energy source as dog shit...
A battle that relies entirely on technology, yet it looks so fantastic no matter how you look at it...
