Chapter 1343: Chapter 588: Eight-Pack Abs, Jealous? Born with Them!

Crack!

The corpse cold storage cabinet was dragged open by Lin Baici, revealing a black corpse bag inside, squirming like a wriggling earthworm.

Lin Baici grabbed the zipper and, with a rasping sound, unzipped the corpse bag.

Woosh!

A young man in his twenties abruptly sat up.

"I thought I was going to suffocate in there!"

The young man wiped his face with his hand and turned to look at the person who had pulled him out: "Thanks... Big Cousin?"

The young man started to thank, but seeing it was Lin Baici, his pupils instantly contracted and his shoulders tensed.

"The phoenix in the straw nest?"

Lin Baici chuckled, surprised to encounter this individual.

"It’s not me, I didn’t do it, you’ve got the wrong person!"

Zheng Yu Huang reflexively retorted in denial, but then he remembered how in the game, everyone’s appearance matched their real-life looks, making any attempt at concealment utterly futile.

So Zheng Yu Huang forced a smile: "Big Cousin, couldn’t we just distinguish between in-game matters and real life?"

"I didn’t steal your monster—it came running on its own, and I just happened to kill it. My only mistake might be not returning your newbie sword!"

"What about the treasure chest you snatched from us?"

Lin Baici scrutinized the young man. His looks were average, but his physique was impressive—he clearly worked out regularly.

"Ah? That... you’re talking about the Quicksand Outpost, at the troll camp?"

Zheng Yu Huang’s face instantly fell into a wistful grimace: "You and Bear Knight were riding warhorses, decked out in full plate armor, faces covered by medieval helmets—how was I supposed to recognize you?"

"Had I realized it was you, I swear I wouldn’t have made a move even if I was beaten to death!"

Zheng Yu Huang genuinely meant it.

Lin Baici smirked slightly.

"Really, Big Cousin, you’ve got to believe me! At the time, I only noticed the battle log information and realized I’d pissed off Sister Summer. I actually wanted to apologize, but she killed me so damn fast I didn’t even have time to react!"

Zheng Yu Huang was practically on the verge of tears.

"You’ve no idea how I survived those two days—I had to grind monsters overnight because my achievement points got wiped to zero. If I didn’t work hard, I’d risk elimination penalties!"

"By the way, I should thank you, Big Cousin; had it not been for you guys, I would’ve had to face the death lottery with ten chances in one. I’d probably be dead by now!"

Talking to this point, Zheng Yu Huang donned a fawning smile again.

"Heh heh."

Lin Baici smiled faintly: "This isn’t the game anymore; no skills, no level gaps!"

"Huh?"

Zheng Yu Huang froze for a moment, then looked down, running his hands over his body—warm, and it felt like real skin. He tried calling up the attributes menu.

But nothing appeared!

Back to reality?

Alright then!

Zheng Yu Huang immediately brightened up.

Damn!

No skills, no levels. What should I be afraid of?

In-game, with a level gap of over ten levels, and gear that wasn’t even worth comparing, of course, I couldn’t beat them. But in reality...

I too hit the gym more than ten times a month, got it?

Zheng Yu Huang came from a moderately wealthy family, had a cushy job in a state-owned enterprise—not busy, with regular weekends off—and sometimes even visited the gym in the evenings. He prided himself on his strong physique and excellent fitness.

Walking down the street, facing average guys? He could take on ten at once.

So Zheng Yu Huang dropped the humbled posture and replaced it with a newfound sense of confidence. Turning to Lin Baici, he sized him up with superiority.

Goddammit!

Still as handsome as in the game!

But no big deal, I’m more muscular.

Then Zheng Yu Huang’s gaze dropped, sweeping past Lin Baici’s chest, abs...

Holy crap!

What kind of body is this?

Zheng Yu Huang was instantly floored, his eyes almost bugging out of his head.

"What? Want to spar?"

Lin Baici flexed his knuckles with a faint cracking sound.

"No, no, no!"

Zheng Yu Huang waved his hands hastily.

Are you kidding me?

Didn’t you see those eight-pack abs?

And check out the biceps, the shapely trapezius muscles, and those powerful thighs—

Damn,

this guy could kill me with a single punch!

"Wasn’t it freezing inside?"

Lin Baici glanced inside the cold storage cabinet and the corpse bag—nothing else was in there.

"Cold... Wait, bro, how do you train like this?"

Zheng Yu Huang put both hands on the edge of the cold storage cabinet, swung his legs over, and jumped down: "Can I touch it?"

Zheng Yu Huang loved fitness, loved posting selfies on social media, believing it would attract women.

Su Manni walked over and stuck close to Lin Baici. Upon hearing this, she stared at Zheng Yu Huang in astonishment.

Male bronze?

When Zheng Yu Huang saw Su Manni, he was immediately captivated. Such a beautiful woman! And that lingerie—

Tsk,

damn sexy.

"Hi, I’m Zheng Yu Huang, an employee at a state-owned enterprise!"

Zheng Yu Huang extended his hand, instinctively puffing out his chest.

When Su Manni heard the words "state-owned enterprise," she initially considered shaking hands, but as her eyes glanced at Lin Baici beside her, she instantly gave up the idea.

Zheng Yu Huang was accustomed to hitting on women; being rejected was nothing new to him, so he didn’t get dejected: "Big Cousin, where is this place?"

"Seems like a mortuary!"

Lin Baici analyzed.

"What?"

Zheng Yu Huang was startled, whipping his head to take another look.

The corpse cold storage cabinets were unnerving enough, especially when thinking about all the bodies that may have been stored there before he ended up inside...

Shhh!

Zheng Yu Huang shivered from head to toe, feeling deeply creeped out as goosebumps began to spread.

He quickly started rubbing his arms with both hands.

"Big Cousin, do you suppose there are other people stored in those cold cabinets too?"

Su Manni inquired.

"You all came out of cabinets?"

Zheng Yu Huang asked and saw Su Manni glance at him; instinctively, he tightened his muscles again.
