The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human?

Chapter 778: Chapter 535: Big White Goose: What Grudge, What Resentment

"I’m back."

Liu Zheng said as he pushed the door open.

"Hold on, did you clean yourself up before coming back?"

Niu Ma shouted.

"Why do I need to wash?"

He asked, puzzled.

"Didn’t you go to the sewer to eat poop?"

"Don’t spread rumors, boss. I clearly went to dig for poop in the sewer."

Liu Zheng corrected.

"What’s the difference, it’s all playing with poop."

Niu Ma said, covering his nose.

"Quit pretending, with your senses, can you really keep out a bad smell? Besides, I didn’t dig myself; I had the sanitation department’s Fly People help me dig."

He said speechlessly.

"You can even command the sanitation department people?"

Niu Ma said, shocked.

"Oh, it’s just mutual benefit."

Liu Zheng waved his tentacles.

"You really are getting more capable as you live."

Niu Ma said with a bit of envy, jealousy, and resentment.

"Don’t just see the thief eating meat without seeing the thief getting beaten. Although I may look impressive on the surface, I’m actually quite wealthy behind the scenes."

He said with a pained expression.

"I see you really do want a beating."

Niu Ma’s hoof tensed up instantly.

"Haha, just kidding."

Liu Zheng laughed and went into the lounge.

"Hmph."

"Don’t be mad, boss, I brought you good food and drinks."

He placed a box in front of Niu Ma.

"Good that you know to respect me."

Niu Ma’s expression improved considerably at the sight of the Unlucky Coffee logo on the box.

"Arguing is one thing, respect is another."

Liu Zheng said as he called the Weaving Spider Lady.

"Squeak squeak!"

Soon, the Weaving Spider Lady crawled out from the shadows.

"Here, I brought you drinks and desserts, and the Spirit Line is in there too."

He said, taking out a pre-packed bag.

"Squeak squeak!"

"Boss?"

Liu Zheng looked at Niu Ma.

"It said thank you."

The latter translated.

"Oh. By the way, why can Box Weaving Spider speak human language, but you can’t?"

He asked.

"Squeak squeak squeak!"

"It used to, but after getting injured, it couldn’t anymore."

Niu Ma translated.

"Was it that Human-Head Spider who did it?"

"Squeak squeak squeak!"

The Weaving Spider Lady nodded vigorously.

This time, Liu Zheng understood without needing translation.

"It’s okay; it can’t hurt you anymore."

He comforted by patting the Weaving Spider Lady’s head.

The latter quickly shrank her head but ultimately didn’t dodge.

"Good girl. Here, this is also for you."

Liu Zheng took out some Alien Insect Meat he had saved for the Weaving Spider Lady from the Legendary Takeout Box.

"Squeak squeak!"

The Weaving Spider Lady squeaked excitedly.

"It said thank you."

Niu Ma translated with a blank expression.

"You’re welcome. Boss, do you want some?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"Let’s forget about it; I’m not interested in bugs."

Niu Ma said, sticking to his guns as he licked his lips.

"Oh. By the way, is there a genius called Artisan Weaver Spider in your Spider Clan?"

He asked the Weaving Spider Lady.

"Squeak squeak."

The latter nodded while eating.

"What’s its relationship with Box Weaving Spider?"

"Squeak squeak squeak squeak squeak."

"It’s Box Weaving Spider’s biological brother."

Niu Ma translated.

"Did it fall in love with a hermit crab and then followed it into the sea?"

Liu Zheng asked again.

"Squeak squeak squeak squeak squeak squeak..."

"It said yes; the incident made quite a stir initially. The Spider Clan originally planned to swarm out to catch the Artisan Weaver Spider back, but later thought it was too embarrassing to spread, so they gave up. Why are you asking?"

Niu Ma translated.

"Box Weaving Spider asked me to bring it back."

He answered.

"Squeak squeak squeak..."

"Then forget it; the Artisan Weaver Spider’s weaving skills are ranked in Metropolis. No matter where it is, it’s a valued guest, and its own strength is strong. As long as it doesn’t want to return, no one can bring it back."

Niu Ma continued to translate.

"No worries, I just want to confirm the authenticity of this matter. Whether to do it or not is another question."

Liu Zheng waved his tentacles.

The Weaving Spider Lady listened silently and continued eating, quickly finishing the drinks and food in front of her.

"Squeak squeak squeak..."

Finished with the last sentence, it promptly slipped away.

"It said it’ll rush the production for you and have it ready by tomorrow morning."

Niu Ma translated.

"Thanks, boss."

Liu Zheng nodded and then called the White Feather Chicken.

"Master chef boss, there’s something..."

"Before you complete my task, I won’t help you with anything."

The White Feather Chicken bluntly hung up the phone.

"Tch~"

He clicked his tongue.

Thinking about blowing up the lottery shop made Liu Zheng a little anxious.

If he wants to maximize benefits, he must first complete the General Services’ task and obtain the "Chaotic Dice".

But to complete the General Services’ task, he’d need to visit the Ten Thousand Great Mountains, which would take more than just an hour or two for delivery.

Liu Zheng couldn’t think of the right person to choose.

"Boss, are there other lottery shops in Metropolis?"

He asked.

If worse comes to worst, he can blow this lottery shop up and then go to another to draw.

"Of course, but you might only be able to go to the one the White Feather Chicken wants you to."

Niu Ma said without raising his head.

"Why?"

"Didn’t I tell you before? Everyone sees Metropolis differently, and what you see is even more unique."

Niu Ma replied.

"What do you mean by ’like you’?"

Liu Zheng asked with some guilt.

"Come on, the incompatible smell you have is more pungent than the poop in the sewer. Do you really think others are oblivious? If it weren’t for the fact that City Hall arranged for you to come in, we’d all assume you snuck in illegally."

Niu Ma rolled his eyes.

"Hey, I didn’t hide anything from you, though, and you guys never asked."

"What’s there to ask? If you really have a problem, the more we know, the more trouble we get. Besides, at first, I thought you wouldn’t make it to the next day, so I had no interest in where you came from."
