Chapter 74: Grandmother Siri’s Rage Bar

A few minutes earlier...

Because of Wen Nou’s loss, the pressure on Anning’s shoulders was huge.

Before going to the platform, Han Wangping reminded her again not to underestimate her opponent.

"I get it." She was annoyed and raised her pitch when she answered back, making Han Wanping very displeased.

Anning didn’t stay anymore and proceeded to walk towards the platform, and in the midst, she could hear the crowd calling the old woman’s name. She bit her lips in frustration.

There were also people shouting her name, but the other side was rowdier and easily overpowered her supporters. She was uncomfortable.

"What’s so good about a wrinkled-skin, hunched-back old woman? "She muttered in a low voice before green shoots sprouted from the ground, grew to long, thorny vines, and formed a staircase leading to the platform with red flowers similar to roses blooming on the edges.

This was her natal plant, a rare species of flower called Lantana.

The pollen and the petals of the flower had toxic and paralyzing attributes, which were highly valued by Han Wangping, allowing her to easily join the number one mercenary team.

If this were a game and her ability was evaluated by the system, Anning could be said to possess a lot of CC and debuff skills, making her a very tough opponent to kill.

Her show of her precise control of the wooden ability filled her supporters with vigor, and the Outer District suffered a slight fright.

"Anning!"

"Anning!"

Anning lifted her steps and climbed the staircase with her chin raised. Her form exuded confidence.

You dare send a grandma to fight me?

She will make sure to make the Outer District pay for looking down on her!

On the Outer District, the grandmothers that had interacted with Siri before didn’t join the rest in cheering and were praying with all their might not to let danger befall the old woman.

Anning was famous in their circle, and because she was a wooden ability user, she also visited the greenhouse quite often for her shift.

Those times when she visited, troubles always erupted, and the Outer District would be the one suffering every time and get their share of the harvest deducted.

Her pettiness continued for a straight four months until she joined the mercenary team, which allowed the grandparents to get much-needed mental rest.

But the grudges had not faded away and were remembered very vividly because, within that time frame, a lot of grannies nearly died of starvation.

If not for Gong Panli emptying his personal warehouse and using his points to hire a team to get supplies in the abandoned city, then there would be a lot of people dying.

On Team Treasure Chest’s side, the team members surrounded the old woman.

"Brother Siri, I wish you luck." Li Chunhua tiptoed and patted Siri’s shoulders.

Little Mantou, the number one fan, also circled around the elf and barked his words of encouragement. "Sir Elf, do your best. Win or lose, you’re still as handsome as ever."

"Grandma, your life is important. If you feel danger, quit immediately," Gong Panli reminded.

Mr. Fang, Tan Ge, and Jun Qi nodded, agreeing with Panli’s statement.

Siri nodded with a smile before walking towards the platform. Honestly, this battle is in favor of him, so he was not a bit nervous.

"Siri has the heart of a warrior. She just became a member of the Outer District yesterday, and now she’s risking her safety for us." One of the grannies wiped the warm tears dripping from the corner of her eyes, causing the others to cry as well.

Her statements made the other sentimental, and they called Siri’s name, and much emotion and words of ’encouragement’ came out of their mouths.

’Siri, show her what grannies are made of!"

"Siri, whoop her as*."

These series of cheers touched a chord of Anning’s patience and profanities, much more vibrant than those fired in the global chat war escaped her mouth.

"You’re just a wrinkly old woman close to her death bed. Who the f*ck gave you courage to go against me!" She was not usually talkative, but the horrible memories of her abusive grandmother sprang into her mind.

Siri’s eyes widened.

He hasn’t even done something, and clearly there’s no grudge between them, so why is this lady so angry?

But the rainbow of profanities didn’t stop flying there.

Every single cell of Siri’s body, from head to toe, was subject to Anning’s thorough analysis. Words beyond human tolerance streamed out, and Siri could literally see volcanoes erupting, the tumultuous storm descending in the seas, and other kinds of devastation swirling in his head.

If Siri had a rage bar just like those bosses in the online games, it would be like this:

[Rage Bar...1%]

The rims of his eyes reddened. My skin is more dehydrated than the driest desert?

Little Mantou covered his eyes.

[Rage Bar....5%]

He clenched his fists. My saggy face can scare ghosts and monsters?

Little Mantou inched closer to Li Chunhua.

[Rage Bar...20%]

Siri’s veins, from his neck to his face, protruded. The veins on my body are so numerous that I can be a tree?

Little Mantou jumped on Li Chunhua’s lap, trembling.

[Rage bar...50%]

A violent aura wrapped around his form. I’m so ugly that I can go die?

Little Mantou went under Li Chunhua’s chair and buried his head on the ground.

He could feel the intense anger radiating strongly from Siri’s form. "Heck, I don’t want to see this."

[Rage bar...100%]

Siri entered RAMPAGE MODE.

His head dropped, both of his shoulders shook, and maniacal laughter erupted from his throat.

Anning stopped speaking because she could feel danger looming over her head.

"You’ve...chosen...death." A red glint flashed in Siri’s eyes, and so was his body.

Han Wangping stood from his seat.

Lou Anke was startled. Why is the leader reacting exaggeratedly?

Anning instantly summoned a lot of vines, and the sharp tips charged at Siri like arrows released from the bow. "Come at me, you ugly old woman!"

"This ugly old woman will destroy you!" Siri responded with another maniacal laugh.

Crack-

"Ahh!" Someone screamed.

The audience was stunned and hissed.

Li Chunhua also stopped popping snacks in her mouth. (⊙Д⊙) So savage!

Little Mantou shivered and pressed his face closer on the dirt. （／_＼） I knew it!

(Little Baozi: Thank you for the gifts kissmysilhouette and irdpgirl. Thank you for the 15 golden tickets Sheri_Golladay. (❁´◡`❁))

(Just like Siri I would also wrestle anyone who calls my mom and grandma ugly. ಠ⁠◡⁠ಠ )
