Chapter 95: Chapter 6: Gravity Training Room
"Yan Luo."
Li Xinyue walked over with a glass of wine, sat down next to Yan Luo, glanced at the faint bruise on his forehead, and said softly, "It seems like you recently became a hero of Crimson No.2?"
She hadn’t been back from the Abyss for a day when she learned of Yan Luo’s ’great achievements’ from others.
Yan Luo shook his head, "What hero? I just led a bunch of still-drunk fools into a brawl. It wasn’t even my idea to suggest driving out the Hunters from Crimson No.1. I didn’t expect to suddenly become a representative figure."
"No need to belittle yourself so much."
A tall Hunter overheard Yan Luo’s words, sat down across from him, and said with a smile, "Only you managed to handle the situation. Even if those guys dashed out to beat up the Hunters from Crimson No.1 or fought with them multiple times, it wouldn’t solve the problem. You handled this flawlessly, leaving no room for criticism."
Yan Luo glanced at the tall man opposite and nodded, "Thank you for the encouragement."
The tall man grinned, "Nice to meet you; my name is Chen Shan."
Hearing this name, Yan Luo finally remembered who he was.
"The other leader of the Mountain and River Warband, [Mountain] Chen Shan?"
The Mountain and River Warband is the strongest warband of Crimson No.2, and both of its leaders are nearly Second Rank powerhouses. It is said they each have seven Engravings, just one short of reaching the Second Rank.
Previously, the other leader of the Mountain and River Warband, Wu Zechuan, invited Yan Luo to join their warband, but Yan Luo did not join; instead, he joined the Purple Fox Squad.
"That’s me." Chen Shan nodded with a smile.
Looking at Yan Luo, Chen Shan took a bottle of beer from the robot’s refrigerator as he passed by, popped the cap on the table’s edge, took a swig, and then said with a smile, "I’ve heard Ah Chuan mention you. He told me you’re an interesting person. I didn’t understand why he said that before, but now I do."
As he spoke, Chen Shan extended his hand to Yan Luo, "Friends?"
Yan Luo looked at Chen Shan’s hand, shook it, and then shook his head, "I have high standards for ’friends.’ We’re not that familiar yet."
Hearing this, Chen Shan not only didn’t get angry but laughed heartily, "You are indeed an interesting person! I’ve decided to make you my friend. Whether you acknowledge it or not, I consider you a friend. You can come to me if you need anything. I have to go now!"
As Chen Shan left, Yan Luo watched his back, filled with questions, and muttered to himself, "Why did he come to talk to me?"
Hearing this, Li Xinyue looked at him in surprise, "Can’t you see? He just wants to get to know you."
"Do I need the acquaintance of such a strong person?" Yan Luo showed a thoughtful expression.
He felt he hadn’t demonstrated any value that would make such a strong individual specifically approach to meet him.
Li Xinyue was a bit speechless, "Can’t someone just feel you’re interesting?"
"Interesting? Someone like me, who easily offends others when speaking and usually has no expression, interesting?" Yan Luo fell into thought again.
Li Xinyue was completely speechless at Yan Luo.
Why is his thinking so stubborn?
Li Xinyue sighed, "Think what you want... By the way, why did you think about driving all the Hunters from Crimson No.1 away? I feel it’s a bit inconsiderate..."
Yan Luo took a sip of soda and said, "Because of the conflict between the Li Family and the Fields Clan, the Crimson No.1 Hunters are the Fields Clan’s means to oppose the Li Family. Their struggles will involve ordinary people. To end their overt and covert battles, one side must be hit to let the other gain the upper hand. The thing is, the Crimson No.1 Hunters are a direct target for attacks, while the Li Family is not. To solve this quickly, I chose to target the Crimson No.1 Hunters."
Li Xinyue was still puzzled and asked, "But aren’t the Hunters from Crimson No.1 all low-level? How can they help the Fields Clan?"
"The ones coming now are low-level Hunters, but that doesn’t mean all future ones will be low-level." Yan Luo explained, "High-level Hunters and large warbands have deep roots and can’t relocate easily, but when the Crimson No.1 Hunters decline significantly, they must consider moving. As the Crimson No.1 Hunters gradually become Hunters of Crimson No.2, they will increasingly support the Fields Clan, so the Li Family needs to suppress them before the Fields Clan gains more power."
Li Xinyue suddenly understood.
"Master, Yan Luo refused my request before, and he gets along well with this woman, Li Xinyue."
Yan Luo and Li Xinyue didn’t notice a pair of eyes watching them secretly, broadcasting the scene of their conversation.
[Find a way to make Li Xinyue quit the Hunter business. The acquisition plan cannot fail.]
The superiors’ orders put the Hunter secretly watching them in a difficult position.
In today’s world, medical technology is so advanced that even if Li Xinyue is seriously injured, she can recover, at most taking some time off.
Furthermore, causing Li Xinyue to get hurt is a difficult task that could easily result in her death.
He truly didn’t know how to ensure Li Xinyue leaves the Hunter profession without dying.
Thinking of this, the Hunter spying in the shadows sighed.
The superiors only need to issue orders, but there’s much more for those carrying them out to consider.
Yan Luo and Li Xinyue, unaware that they were being watched, chatted for a while before Li Xinyue was called away by members of the seventh squadron of the Glazed Group. Their grand leader seemed to have something to say to them.
After Li Xinyue left, Yan Luo didn’t stay in the third-floor lobby for long. After gathering information on a City-breaking Level Demon, he left the lobby.
Next, he planned to head to the Bone-Eroding Plain for development, and the information on the City-breaking Level Demon was quite useful to him.
Though he’s currently unable to hunt a City-breaking Level Demon, information isn’t solely for hunting; it can also help in avoiding them.
Yan Luo marked the movement location and potential range of that City-breaking Level Demon on his map to avoid provoking it when entering the Abyss.
Returning to the villa, Yan Luo saw Sasa’s name on the entry log, knowing she had come again to do experiments.
He didn’t understand what was so interesting about a bit of his blood.
Recently, Sasa had frequently come to his villa’s basement to study his blood, and the scholar team from Lingquan University thought Sasa was dating him.
Shaking his head, Yan Luo stopped thinking about Sasa, turned around, and went into the bedroom to change into quick-drying clothes, and then dived into the gym to start working on his body.
According to Sasa, his body hadn’t reached its potential limit after the enhancement, but regular training could make him stronger, approaching the limit of his current bodily stage.
However, Yan Luo felt now that the gym’s equipment was becoming ineffective for him.
These pieces of equipment were designed for normal human training.
Even among humans, Warriors couldn’t compare to Yan Luo’s current strength.
Yan Luo’s physical condition was so exceptional that these equipment provided minimal training effects.
To strengthen his physical training, he needed better equipment.
While bench-pressing a 600-kilogram barbell, Yan Luo distractedly browsed other training equipment.
For him now, 600 kilograms was just a warm-up, incapable of providing significant training effects.
Suddenly, Yan Luo’s gaze stopped, and he casually put the barbell on the rack, sat up, and used a towel to wipe away the little sweat that had formed.
In front of him now was a piece of high-tech gym equipment called the ’Gravity Training Room,’ which required a 100 square meter room just for installation.
The villa didn’t have such a large room, but connecting several rooms together should suffice.
Furthermore, the thing cost a billion.
