Superman Termination Manual - Chapter 213

Chapter 213 – 148: Strange Thing X Shadow Heir Ninja Sect Sect Master (2)
“Why do you have any grudges with those players?” Ke Xiaomo asked expressionlessly.

The strange thing raised its index finger, shaking it in front of Ke Xiaomo, “There’s no grudge, but that conspicuous bag has sucked away all my popularity. Alas, look at this morning’s trending topics–the mass brainwashing march was all his doing.”

It sighed, covering its face with a hand, and continued, “Damn it, these people. I’m supposed to be the most dazzling villain in this city. How could I let him steal my thunder?”

“So, your motive is indeed… a lack of love.”

“Lack of love?” the strange thing was startled, “I never lack love. You should see how many fans I have on the internet, and many want to have my babies.”

“Then their taste might be somewhat abnormal.”

“Anyway, I must seriously refute… I don’t lack love, wait, what are you trying to do, you crazy fan? Do you really want to monopolize your idol like this?”

As the strange thing spoke, it suddenly noticed that the shadow beneath it had become sticky, like a miniature swamp, slowly swallowing its body.

If things went as expected, the moment it was completely engulfed by this shadow, it would enter a different space built within the shadows, and have an intense battle with Ke Xiaomo.

Of course, this was just speculation. Unsure whether it would still be able to control its body after falling into this shadow space, it decisively self-destructed.

Ke Xiaomo silently watched it.

The next moment, the strange thing’s body gradually heated up, cracked, and as fine cracks spread from the corners of its mouth, its face slowly revealed a sinister smile.

It said, “So, we’re in a cooperative relationship now, right? I’ll come looking for you when I’m free.”

“How will I be able to find you?” Ke Xiaomo asked.

“If you want to find me, let’s meet somewhere–the Huanjing 7 highway…” the strange thing suddenly closed its mouth, realizing it had said something terrible.

“Highway… what?”

Ke Xiaomo frowned, pressing for an answer.

“Oh no… that place isn’t so good. I refute it, otherwise, you’ll find out I’m there every night, meeting a cool and aloof beautiful girl.” Explaining, the strange thing bit its finger, “How about this, let’s meet at Wine Reflecting Coast from now on? It’s a nice place with beautiful scenery where you can enjoy the night sea.”

“The place is set, but what about the time, how will I know if you’re there?”

“If you see me throwing dice on TV, you can come looking for me. If I appear on the coast, it means I want to see you; if I’m not there, it means I don’t want to see you. Don’t force it.”

Ke Xiaomo took a deep breath, remaining noncommittal, “You really are troublesome…”

He paused for a while, his voice gradually turning cold, “I’m warning you for the last time, if you tell the Management Bureau about that incident in Wanxiang City, no matter if you flee to the ends of the earth, I will find you, and tear you to pieces.”

“Of course, I might seem fickle, but I’m still very credible,” the strange thing sneered, “That’s it then. Goodbye, Sect Master of the Twenty-Eighth Generation of the Shadow Heir Ninja Sect, Ke Xiaomo, such a long and nauseating nickname, it makes me sick just saying it.”

As the words fell, the gray humanoid body completely burst open, transforming into a sinister laugh that echoed through the alley.

Ke Xiaomo was silent for a moment, then took his phone out of his pocket and checked a message.

[Ke Yinzhi: They’ve both gone home, where are you?]

[Ke Xiaomo: I’m back.]

After sending the message, Ke Xiaomo’s figure transformed into a pool of ink “splashing” into the shadow in the corner of the alley, as the narrow alley was gradually enveloped in a dismal silence.

…..

…..

[Completed the second node objective of “The Fall of the Ninja Sect” – Made contact with Ke Xiaomo, the Sect Master of the Twenty-Eighth Generation of the Shadow Heir Ninja Sect and attempted to establish a cooperative relationship with the Ninja Sect.]

[The next main mission node is: Help the Sect Master Ke Xiaomo find the second Catastrophe Dragon in the world and together kill the out-of-control “Second Dragon.”]

“Ah?” Ke Mingye slightly raised an eyebrow, thinking, “How come brother’s main sequence task is exactly the same as a little schoolboy’s, both finding that second dragon? It looks like this second dragon is a hidden boss.”

[Node reward obtained: B-grade weapon–“Dragon Bone Blade,” 4000 Experience Points, 8 attribute points, 3000 Mall Coins.]

Without hesitation, Ke Mingye allocated the attribute points to “Spiritual Power.”

[Your Spiritual Power attribute has increased from “14 points” to “22 points” (|8 points).]

[Your current level progress: Lv.14 (4500 points/8000 points)]

[Your Mall Coins total: 20300]

Bai Ziling opened the door, bent down to remove her sandals, and then walked in, handing a bottle of Coke to Ke Mingye on the sofa, and said lightly, “Bro, your drink.”

“Oh, thanks.”

Ke Mingye, looking at his phone, took the drink without looking up.

“Where’s Second Bro?” she asked.

“In the bathroom, probably constipated.”

Ke Mingye said nonchalantly.

The next moment, accompanied by the sound of flushing from the bathroom, Ke Xiaomo pushed open the bathroom door and walked out expressionlessly.

What, a toilet ninja?

Ke Mingye secretly ridiculed in his mind, feeling a sense of deja vu: back when Ke Xiaomo was still suspicious of him, he would often sneak out of the bathroom to follow him, a classic remake… Only this time the target of Second Bro’s tracking had become elementary school students and Zi Ling.

“Bro, your drink.” Bai Ziling handed a cold Wong Lo Kat to Ke Xiaomo.

“Thanks.”

Ke Xiaomo said, taking the Wong Lo Kat with one hand and tousling Bai Ziling’s snowy hair with the other.

As Ke Mingye watched this scene, he remarked, “Did you wash your hands? I only heard the toilet flush, Bro, you didn’t hit the big time without washing your hands, did you?”

Bai Ziling was stunned, then brushed off Ke Xiaomo’s hand, her crimson eyes lifting slightly with a hint of hostility.

“Of course I did.”

Ke Xiaomo said expressionlessly as he placed the cold Wong Lo Kat against Ke Mingye’s neck, making him shriek, “Still slandering your brother?”

“My bad, who dares to talk back to you?”

Ke Mingye shrugged and said sarcastically.

“Stop picking on our young friend Mingye, let’s watch a movie.” Ke Yinzhi, with an arm over the couch and yawning, said, “I’m heading out early in the morning tomorrow, won’t stay up late tonight… Let’s finish those movies we didn’t complete last night.”

“Where are you going tomorrow?”

Upon hearing this, Ke Xiaomo twisted open the cap of the Wong Lo Kat and took a seat on the couch, taking a sip.

“Secret.” Ke Yinzhi smiled.

Ke Mingye, sitting next to the two, leaned his head back on the couch, looking at the local players’ discussion group that popped up before him.

[Local Players Discussion Group]

[Gastella: Tomorrow morning, can anyone come to meet?]

[Failed Man: I can come.]

[Paranoid: Hehehe, Lord Paranoid has time too, it’s about time to vet this newcomer to see if they qualify to be our partner.]

[Failed Man: You know what, Paranoid, maybe you better not come.]

[Gastella: Okay, I’ll tell you the location later, goodnight.]

Blood Clan Hunter, huh…

Take it one step at a time, get a feel for his background, see what sort of bigshot they are.

Ke Mingye looked at the messages on his screen, pondering slowly and was about to close his eyes when he was suddenly awakened by a cold sensation on his neck, quickly opening his eyes to see the bottle of chilled Wong Lo Kat against his neck.

He pushed away the Wong Lo Kat, turned his head to look at Ke Xiaomo, and said angrily, “Is this ever going to end?”

“If you want to sleep, go upstairs, not on the couch, you might catch a cold,” Ke Xiaomo said.

“Yeah, yeah, you’re always right,” Ke Mingye grumbled, rising from the couch and walking upstairs.
