In the darkness after the pass, Xiao Lan's storage space is silent with the eye-catchingly coloured, flamboyantly shaped and plastic [Plastic Dragon Slayer].
The knife is so wide that it would be almost a man's height if it were held out, and the blade is so packed with impractical decorative structures that it is dizzying. The colour scheme is heavily decorated in gold and red, with a fist-sized plastic ruby in the middle, so fake it's hard to see.
Simply put - ugly and full of presence.
I don't know why, but Xiao Lan always thought that 50% probability looked a bit obtrusive, as if it was mocking the non-competitive, who, with his usual luck, would probably use it and nothing would happen at all.
But ugly it is, it's still a prop, and the instant death ruling is awesome, so keep it for now, just in case there's any use for it in the future.
If it doesn't work out, it can still be handed over to Luo, and 50% on Luo is more reliable than on Xiao Lan himself.
Xiao Lan and Luo returned to the players' quarters.
Their room remained exactly as they had left it, completely unchanged.
Xiao Lan was going to go straight back to reality, but Luo stopped him.
Luo reached out and pointed to Xiao Lan's dusty and bloody clothes: "Would you like to take a shower first, sir? And clean up the wound."
Xiao Lan now looks down at herself.
He had a fight with Cheng Wenyi earlier, which had dismantled the entire conference room and left him rolling on the floor with dust and furniture crumbs on his clothes, and then he ran straight into a fight with Cain, which left him with a lot of injuries.
Now his clothes were not only dirty, they had several holes in them and his whole outfit was almost ruined, he looked almost like a punk who had just finished a brawl.
It's a good thing we're in the Advent world, where basic necessities don't cost a fortune. Otherwise, according to Xiao Lan's old style, he could have worn a ten-dollar T-shirt for years, and such a loss would have been huge.
"Okay, I'll go take a shower first." Xiao Lan also felt buried going out with this look.

Anyway, according to the player's physical quality wounds will not be infected by water, not to mention that it is difficult to say whether there are bacteria and microorganisms in the water created by the Advent world or not, after all, there are not even mosquitoes, flies and cockroaches in the player's quarters, a standard configuration of the lucky three.
After the shower, Xiao Lan came out of the bathroom dressed and feeling refreshed.
He was sitting on the sofa, casually wiping his hair with a towel, not caring that droplets of water slid down his neck and wet his newly changed clothes; he had never been one to take meticulous care of himself.
Luo, on the other hand, noticed this, and his good-looking brow furrowed slightly.
Suddenly, Xiao Lan felt a void in her hand and turned her head to see that the towel had fallen into Luo's hand.
Xiao Lan cast a confused look at him.
Luo smiled up at Xiao Lan: "Leave it to me, please."
"Er ...... thanks then." Xiao Lan was a little uncomfortable, but accepted the kind offer.
It's been years since he's had this kind of help with his hair, probably the last time when he was a child. Usually Xiao Lan just rubs his own hair to keep it from dripping, and sometimes he falls asleep when he's too tired to work.
As for the hairdryer, what is that?
There are no such advanced configurations in the world of the poor brown man.
Luo's movements are gentle, his long fingers are soothing on the scalp and the gentle sound of the towel rubbing against it is very relaxing.
With the towel obscuring her vision, Xiao Lan even drifted off to sleep for a few moments.
"What are your plans when you meet with Cheng Wenyi?" Luo's low voice rang out in Xiao Lan's ear, his tone gentle with a hint of imperceptible doting.
At the moment Luo's face has a little doting smile on it, and his eyes keep falling on Xiao Lan's body, even though he can't see his face through the towel now.

Only the towel obscured Xiao Lan's view so that he could not detect this.
Xiao Lan was oblivious to Luo's stare and pondered, "The most important goal is still information, and I want to get as much as I can from Cheng Wenyi. But he won't tell me everything so easily, and if I slip up during the negotiation process, he might cut out some important information."
Cheng Wenyi is a rather arrogant man who does not care to interact with people he considers unworthy of him.
This is evident from his temptation to Xiao Lan, who wants to see Xiao Chengyan's son and tell him the truth, but if he finds that Xiao Chengyan's son is useless, Cheng Wenyi will turn around and leave, not giving Xiao Lan a chance to communicate at all.
Even if Cheng Wenyi had said that Xiao Lan could ask everything he wanted to know, he did not say that he would tell her, and if Xiao Lan had not asked the key questions himself, I am afraid Cheng Wenyi would not have been kind enough to say so.
This meeting is probably still an encounter as well, just without the smoke.
It really doesn't let you relax at all.
Luo keeps moving: "You can think about what you want in advance, make your actions all about that goal, and at the same time define your bottom line, so that if the other party's offer is more than you can accept, it's time to say no."
Xiao Lan thought about it, "Firstly, it's about my dad, secondly I want to know Cheng Wenyi's position and willingness to approach me, and finally ...... the cooperation he mentioned I also want to know a little bit about it."
"As for the bottom line, I will not join Reincarnation and become a henchman of Cheng Wenyi."
The way the reincarnation works does not lend itself to individual player empowerment, even if the reincarnation is crowded and the group has more advantages in terms of information exchange and action, but the biggest advantage of the reincarnation is actually the care of the members' families in the real world, which is something Xiao Lan does not need.
At the moment, the fastest way for Xiao Lan to improve himself is to fight in the playground, to experience combat and life and death most directly, rather than safety and stability.
Luo picked up the towel and noticed that Xiao Lan's hair was still a little damp, so he replaced it with a dry towel and continued to wipe his hair: "Sir, at the beginning of the negotiations you can try to talk a little about seemingly insignificant topics."
Xiao Lan: "Irrelevant?"
Luo: "Well, the atmosphere is also an important point, the right amount of small talk builds a certain intimacy which is good for the negotiation to take place."

"Also, listening is one of the very important strategies; observing the other person's expressions and body language will allow you to determine what he is really trying to say - after all, sometimes words are just a tool for deception. Finally, please avoid being emotional, aim for what you want to know and don't be carried away by the other person's attitude or conditions."
"These are considered relatively simple negotiation techniques and can be applied in a short period of time, so I hope they will be of help to you."
"There you go." Luo removed the towel from Xiao Lan's head and he reached down to touch his hair, giving him a gentle smile.
Luo put the towel away and took a medical kit out of the drawer under the table, "Now it's time to treat your wound, please take off your top."
"Huh?" Xiao Lan's thoughts were still lost in the negotiation skills Luo had instructed her on earlier, and she was a little confused by this statement.
He looked at Luo, who waved the Advent medicine in his hand. As long as it wasn't a broken arm or leg with a missing part, it would heal quickly after application.
Xiao Lan was only half-slow in taking off her T-shirt and flopping down on the sofa.
Luo applies the right amount of pressure, carefully applying the medicine to each and every bruise.
With his back to Luo, Xiao Lan can't see Luo's face, but he can feel his long fingers dipping into the medicine and brushing over his body, the no-longer-cold fingertips bringing a tingling tickle.
"Do I have the right amount of force?" Luo inquired.
I can picture Luo's gentle and serious look at this moment.
"Well ......" Xiao Lan flopped down on the sofa, suddenly feeling a little red in the face.
"Please don't worry, it will be fine soon." Luo's movements were unhurried as he continued to treat other injuries, not only on the upper body, but Luo also pulled up Xiao Lan's trouser leg and treated the injury on his leg.
Xiao Lan buried her face in the pillow and tried to adjust her breathing so that her face wouldn't continue to blush, but she was glad that her back was now to Luo and he wouldn't notice her.
Finally, the torturous process of administering the medicine to Xiao Lan was over.

Xiao Lan sighed with relief and stood up to move his limbs. The bruises and contusions from the previous fight with Cheng Wenyi had completely disappeared under the powerful effects of the no-nonsense medicine, which was a godsend for cheating.
Unfortunately, these medicines are like food in a player's restaurant and are not allowed to be brought into the game.

After packing up, the two returned to the real world.
It was night time, so Xiao Lan turned on the lights by hand.
"Knock, knock, knock--"
At almost the same time as the lights came on in their home, a knock sounded on the door.
Luo goes to the door and a man in a suit with meticulously coiffed hair and glasses is standing outside.
After seeing someone open the door, the man bowed to them and said solemnly, "Hello, my name is Wang Shiqi and I was sent by Mr. Cheng to show you the way."
Xiao Lan was not surprised that the people of Cheng Wenyi knew where they lived.
As for the other side finding the door when they had just returned to reality, it was not surprising, as long as they had someone stand guard here in advance and knock on the door at the first sign of movement, wouldn't that be enough?
In this way, Cheng Wenyi is able to take the initiative in the first instance.
The negotiations between the two men have not yet begun, but the exchange of auras has already begun quietly.
However -
" Wang Shiqi?" Xiao Lan's attention was skewed for a moment.

The name reminds him of the Wang family brothers, and the Corgi, Taidi and Husky feel like a family. However, this man is clearly not related to the Wang family brothers and is much older, not to mention that Wang Taidi has never mentioned that he has a brother called Shiki.
Still, Xiao Lan can't help but think that Wang Shiqi will be out there like Tie Hanhan the next minute, and will be splashing around in the mud.
At the look Xiao Lan and Luo gave him, Wang Shiqi was a little puzzled: "Yes, may I ask what's wrong?"
He obviously did not know Wang Ke's real name, so he could not have guessed what Xiao Lan was thinking at the moment.
"It's okay." Xiao Lan shook his head, "Let's go, please."
A silver-grey Bentley was parked outside, with a driver waiting inside, and when he saw them coming out he immediately opened the door for them.
"Please get in." Wang Shiqi stepped forward, bowed slightly and extended her hand in gesture.
This service is not only attentive, but also has a strong Cheng Wenyi style.
"No, you guys can just lead the way, we'll drive ourselves." Luo declined.
"This ......" Wang Shiqi was about to say something, but Luo had already left and when he saw that Xiao Lan next to him had no objection either, he had to give up.
Wang Shiqi has a feeling that these two are not people who are easily overwhelmed by the aura of others, I'm afraid.
A few moments later, a Bugatti emerged from the garage, customised in matte black paint with plenty of unique detailing, and at first glance, worth a fortune.
Wang Shiqi: "......"
Okay, you guys win.

People without membership simply cannot get in.
Cheng Wenyi is relaxing in his private room, sipping wine, with a wilted Xue Li at his feet from the can.
"When they arrive, tell them to wait at the door for ten minutes first." Cheng Wenyi said to his assistant.
A Little Xiao's downward spiral was a warm-up to start the negotiations.
Two minutes later, the exquisitely beautiful looking assistant knocked on the door, not looking too good: " Mr. Cheng, they've come in."
Cheng Wenyi tasted his wine and said, "Is the security guard still alive?"
Xiao Lan's wild and brutal style is still fresh in his mind, and Fei Luo, who looks like a human being, does nothing to stop Xiao Lan and even adds fuel to the fire.
These two guys couldn't have fought their way in, could they?
"The security staff are fine because ...... that Mr. Fei is also a member here." The assistant carefully glanced at his boss's face, "It's a top VIP not dissimilar to you."
Cheng Wenyi: "......"
Very good.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
In the darkness after the pass, Xiao Lan's storage space is silent with the eye-catchingly coloured, flamboyantly shaped and plastic [Plastic Dragon Slayer].
The knife is so wide that it would be almost a man's height if it were held out, and the blade is so packed with impractical decorative structures that it is dizzying. The colour scheme is heavily decorated in gold and red, with a fist-sized plastic ruby in the middle, so fake it's hard to see.
Simply put - ugly and full of presence.
I don't know why, but Xiao Lan always thought that 50% probability looked a bit obtrusive, as if it was mocking the non-competitive, who, with his usual luck, would probably use it and nothing would happen at all.
But ugly it is, it's still a prop, and the instant death ruling is awesome, so keep it for now, just in case there's any use for it in the future.

Now his clothes were not only dirty, they had several holes in them and his whole outfit was almost ruined, he looked almost like a punk who had just finished a brawl.
It's a good thing we're in the Advent world, where basic necessities don't cost a fortune. Otherwise, according to Xiao Lan's old style, he could have worn a ten-dollar T-shirt for years, and such a loss would have been huge.
"Okay, I'll go take a shower first." Xiao Lan also felt buried going out with this look.

Anyway, according to the player's physical quality wounds will not be infected by water, not to mention that it is difficult to say whether there are bacteria and microorganisms in the water created by the Advent world or not, after all, there are not even mosquitoes, flies and cockroaches in the player's quarters, a standard configuration of the lucky three.

As long as it wasn't a broken arm or leg with a missing part, it would heal quickly after application.Xiao Lan was only half-slow in taking off her T-shirt and flopping down on the sofa.Luo applies the right amount of pressure, carefully applying the medicine to each and every bruise.With his back to Luo, Xiao Lan can't see Luo's face, but he can feel his long fingers dipping into the medicine and brushing over his body, the no-longer-cold fingertips bringing a tingling tickle."Do I have the right amount of force?" Luo inquired.I can picture Luo's gentle and serious look at this moment."Well ......" Xiao Lan flopped down on the sofa, suddenly feeling a little red in the face."Please don't worry, it will be fine soon." Luo's movements were unhurried as he continued to treat other injuries, not only on the upper body, but Luo also pulled up Xiao Lan's trouser leg and treated the injury on his leg.Xiao Lan buried her face in the pillow and tried to adjust her breathing so that her face wouldn't continue to blush, but she was glad that her back was now to Luo and he wouldn't notice her.Finally, the torturous process of administering the medicine to Xiao Lan was over.AdvertisementXiao Lan sighed with relief and stood up to move his limbs. The bruises and contusions from the previous fight with Cheng Wenyi had completely disappeared under the powerful effects of the no-nonsense medicine, which was a godsend for cheating.Unfortunately, these medicines are like food in a player's restaurant and are not allowed to be brought into the game.--After packing up, the two returned to the real world.It was night time, so Xiao Lan turned on the lights by hand."Knock, knock, knock--"At almost the same time as the lights came on in their home, a knock sounded on the door.Luo goes to the door and a man in a suit with meticulously coiffed hair and glasses is standing outside.After seeing someone open the door, the man bowed to them and said solemnly, "Hello, my name is Wang Shiqi and I was sent by Mr. Cheng to show you the way."Xiao Lan was not surprised that the people of Cheng Wenyi knew where they lived.As for the other side finding the door when they had just returned to reality, it was not surprising, as long as they had someone stand guard here in advance and knock on the door at the first sign of movement, wouldn't that be enough?In this way, Cheng Wenyi is able to take the initiative in the first instance.The negotiations between the two men have not yet begun, but the exchange of auras has already begun quietly.However -" Wang Shiqi?" Xiao Lan's attention was skewed for a moment.AdvertisementThe name reminds him of the Wang family brothers, and the Corgi, Taidi and Husky feel like a family. However, this man is clearly not related to the Wang family brothers and is much older, not to mention that Wang Taidi has never mentioned that he has a brother called Shiki.Still, Xiao Lan can't help but think that Wang Shiqi will be out there like Tie Hanhan the next minute, and will be splashing around in the mud.At the look Xiao Lan and Luo gave him, Wang Shiqi was a little puzzled: "Yes, may I ask what's wrong?"He obviously did not know Wang Ke's real name, so he could not have guessed what Xiao Lan was thinking at the moment."It's okay." Xiao Lan shook his head, "Let's go, please."A silver-grey Bentley was parked outside, with a driver waiting inside, and when he saw them coming out he immediately opened the door for them."Please get in." Wang Shiqi stepped forward, bowed slightly and extended her hand in gesture.This service is not only attentive, but also has a strong Cheng Wenyi style."No, you guys can just lead the way, we'll drive ourselves." Luo declined."This ......" Wang Shiqi was about to say something, but Luo had already left and when he saw that Xiao Lan next to him had no objection either, he had to give up.Wang Shiqi has a feeling that these two are not people who are easily overwhelmed by the aura of others, I'm afraid.A few moments later, a Bugatti emerged from the garage, customised in matte black paint with plenty of unique detailing, and at first glance, worth a fortune.Wang Shiqi: "......"Okay, you guys win.--AdvertisementThis is a private membership club and is not open for membership. Only two or more members are eligible to apply, which also requires proof of substantial assets and a vote of more than half of the members to join.People without membership simply cannot get in.Cheng Wenyi is relaxing in his private room, sipping wine, with a wilted Xue Li at his feet from the can."When they arrive, tell them to wait at the door for ten minutes first." Cheng Wenyi said to his assistant.A Little Xiao's downward spiral was a warm-up to start the negotiations.Two minutes later, the exquisitely beautiful looking assistant knocked on the door, not looking too good: " Mr. Cheng, they've come in."Cheng Wenyi tasted his wine and said, "Is the security guard still alive?"Xiao Lan's wild and brutal style is still fresh in his mind, and Fei Luo, who looks like a human being, does nothing to stop Xiao Lan and even adds fuel to the fire.These two guys couldn't have fought their way in, could they?"The security staff are fine because ...... that Mr. Fei is also a member here." The assistant carefully glanced at his boss's face, "It's a top VIP not dissimilar to you."Cheng Wenyi: "......"Very good.
