Chapter 596: Exploring the Inner World (2)
Translator: Lonelytree
Two quick shadows fell from the sky and crash landed. The next second, two tornado-like data flow howled into the sky like two swirling white large dragons. This was something that only one could see at the inner world. Feng Bujue and Li Ruoyu encountered this for the first time as well.
“Hmm… so that’s why.” As several strands of black data crossed his head, Brother Jue had seen through the theory behind this phenomenon so he said softly. “The atmosphere in this place will create some kind of chemical effect that will affect our visual under the influence of energy…”
“In other words…” Ruoyu said, “If there is a great fight at this place, it will look very flashly?”
“Not only flashy, it will blow your mind.” Brother Jue said with a smile. While they spoke, the two bright lights had slowly dispersed. In the stream of light, two petite characters appeared…
From their appearance, they looked like two little girls of Asian descent. They appeared to be around 10, one dressed in red and the other in green. Their apparel was very special, it gave off a feeling that they were some kind of battle suit but they had been modified for children…!!
“Anomalies?” Ruoyu stared at the two unknown guests and whispered to Brother Jue.
“Hmm…” Feng Bujue answered. “And they’re both level 2.” When Brother Jue studied them on a data level, he only saw two balls of light.
“Do we need to be prepared?” Ruoyu asked again.
“Of course.” Feng Bujue replied, “One has to be always prepared…”
Before he finished, the two Anomalies made their move. They kicked underneath them and started to glide on the ground as they headed towards the two players.
“They attacked without saying anything…” Brother Jue commented.
“Then I guess there is nothing else we can do.” Ruoyu replied calmly. She already held Holy Seal in her hand by then. Their condition was calm and careful, they had been prepared for an ambush. But the two Anomalies did not commit to anything offensive; they merely travelled to 3 metres before the players with incredible speed, then they stood where they were and stopped moving.
“I wonder… how I can help the two of you?” Feng Bujue’s eyes stopped on the two girls and asked cautiously. He did not ask for their name because he already ‘saw’ their code—D2- Red, and D2- Green.
“I sensed there is a strange data around here, so we came to look.” D2-Red tilted her head and said in a haughty tone and sharp gaze, “Why, do you have a problem with that?”
[Hue~ What’s with this attitude.] Brother Jue grumbled internally but on the surface, he replied evenly, “Of course not, look all you want.”
“Your black firewall sure is strange.” D2- Red added, “it can block my scanning signal?’
Brother Jue huffed internally. [Hmph… you should be thankful. If you successfully infiltrated the firewall like V1- War God… then you might be infected by me.]
“You two are players, right?” After D2- Red failed to scan Brother Jue, she turned her attention to Ruoyu. This time she finally got the relevant information she wanted.
“yes, we are players.” Feng Bujue took half a step forward, to block in front of Ruoyu and admitted openly.
“Eh—” After hearing that, D2- Red revealed a hesitant expression. She thought for a few seconds and then turned to D2- Green beside her. “Should we kill them?”
“You decide.” D2-Green replied in a tone that was dead pan like she did not mind either way.
“Then…” D2- Red touched her lower lips with her right index finger. Her watery eyes blinked as if she was thinking deeply.
“Hey…” Feng Bujue interrupted. “Do you not have any stance on this? What is this kind of free to kill attitude?”
“Hah?” D2- Red lifted her head to glare at him. “When you guys into Anomalies in your scenario, you can choose to kill or help us depending on your mood, so why can’t we do the same when we run into players in the inner world?”
“Erm…” At that moment, Brother Jue was stumped.
Ruoyu then looked at D2- Red encouragingly and said, “You have a point, in fact you have made him fail to come up with a counter argument.”
“Hey! Why does it sound like you are encouraging her?” Feng Bujue turned back to yell.
“Okay!” Several seconds later, D2- Red held her left palm to the sky, raised it before her chest, gripped her right hand into fist and pounded it lightly in the middle of her left palm. She said, “I’ve decided!”
“Ho~” Before Feng Bujue heard what the girl had decided, he leaped backwards to draw another 2 metres between them and then assumed Wong Feihung’s signature pose. “What do you plan to do?”
“Not to kill you two.” D2- Red continued. This made Brother Jue sighed in relief.
But 2 seconds later, D2- Red added, “Humans, let’s be friends.” She said then paused for half a second before adding, “If you say no, we will kill you~”
Hearing that, Feng Bujue was speechless again… Even though he knew most level 2 Anomalies had unique and clear personalities like Blood Orchid, Red Iron and Sharp Gale, but for this kind of strange kids, he really had the ‘good’ luck of encountering for the first time.
“Great.” Before Brother Jue could even respond, Ruoyu already took 2 steps forward and extended her hand, “Nice to meet you, I am Passing Rain.”
“Ah… You humans have such strange names.” D2- Red shook Ruoyu’s hand and then replied, “I am D2- Red.” She paused to turn to her friend beside her and introduced, “She is D2- Green.”
[You have code and number as your names and we have strange names?] Feng Bujue did not interrupt but he mocked internally.
“Yes, pleasure to make your acquaintance.” Ruoyu replied.
“Whatevs…” D2- Green groaned and said listless. “Red can decide everything…”
“Ha ha…” D2- Red laughed. “Then we’ll be friends from now on.”
In a way, D2- Red was a very scary Anomaly… an inspiration or thought could change her mind instantly. This personality of hers was rather similar to Feng Bujue’s hard to read mannerism.
“Okay…” By then, Feng Bujue could only follow along. He looked at D2- Red and said, “Since we are friend, we should help each other right?” He reacted quite fast. “Can you bring us to a place?”
“Where?” D2- Red asked.
“Erm…” Feng Bujue hesitated for a moment before he added, “LJN Park.”
