Chapter 100

"Brother Sun, where are you going?"

Wei Dongmai followed Sun Yuan out of the subway station.

"Wanda Mall."

Sun Yuan sat on the motorcycle, started the engine, and said, "I don't need you to repay me, just run for your life, good luck!"

A few minutes later, Wei Dongmai, wearing a helmet from a food delivery service, rode his electric scooter and caught up.

He looked at the BMW motorcycle under Sun Yuan's legs with envy.

"This motorcycle is so cool, it must be very expensive, right?"

Wei Dongmai thought that if he had such a motorcycle, he could deliver a hundred orders a day, and earning over ten thousand a month would be a dream come true.

"It didn't cost me anything, I got it for free!"

Sun Yuan kindly warned, "Following me is very risky!"

"I... I have nowhere to go!"

Wei Dongmai looked dejected.

He shared a rental apartment with three fellow villagers, usually leaving at seven in the morning and returning at ten at night, delivering food all day.

When he returned to the rental apartment, he would lie on the bed, scroll through Kuaishou, and go to sleep, so he had no attachment to the place.

He wanted to go back to his hometown, but clearly couldn't.

Wei Dongmai, lacking experience, didn't know what to do in this crisis. He followed Sun Yuan not only to repay his kindness but also because he was lost.

At least Sun Yuan seemed to have a plan.

Sun Yuan was silent.

Although the Silver Wooden Horse said that the world was gamified and everyone started from the same point, different people had different perspectives, social experiences, and knowledge, leading them to make different choices.

Worse off were people like Wei Dongmai, who didn't even know how to choose.

"Brother Sun, can I work for you?"

Wei Dongmai's words were tinged with a hint of pleading.

"I'm not a capitalist, and I don't have a factory for you to work in!"

Sun Yuan thought Wei Dongmai was a pretty honest guy.

Wei Dongmai, repeatedly rejected, felt a bit awkward but still mustered the courage to plead, "Brother Sun, I want to follow you and learn something!"

"Learn what?"

Sun Yuan was puzzled, "I'm just an ordinary person."

"Duan Guangping and his group didn't dare to leave the subway station, but you dared to roam the city alone, you're very capable!"

To be honest, if not for following Sun Yuan, Wei Dongmai would have found a place to hide long ago.

On the street, Wei Dongmai saw many spore people wandering around. Those close to the road would rush over when they heard the motorcycle pass by.

When Wei Dongmai looked back, he could see a large group of spore people chasing them, which was terrifying, but Sun Yuan remained calm.

Why isn't he afraid?

"..."

Sun Yuan felt a bit embarrassed by the flattery.

"My mom said that if you don't understand something, follow someone capable and learn from them."

Wei Dongmai spoke sincerely, "Brother Sun, I won't be a burden to you!"

"Alright, let's form a temporary team. As for learning from me, don't mention it, I can't bear that responsibility."

Sun Yuan agreed.

He thought that Wei Dongmai, who didn't beg for mercy even when beaten up by Duan Guangping, was a man with principles and could be trusted.

Ten minutes later, a nine-story building that looked like a bird's nest appeared in their view.

They had arrived at Wanda Mall.

Wei Dongmai immediately became nervous because there were many monsters on the square outside the mall.

This mall was one of the top commercial areas in the city, and since many people usually visited, it naturally led to a large number of spore people after the mutation.

"Brother Sun, I've delivered food here before, I know the way!"

Wei Dongmai wanted to show his worth.

"Don't stop, speed up, and go to the underground parking lot!"

Sun Yuan urged.

"Okay."

Wei Dongmai rode his electric scooter, closely following Sun Yuan into the underground parking garage.

There were spore people down here, but far fewer.

Sun Yuan drove to the third level of the parking lot, circled around twice to shake off the spore people following them, and then parked the motorcycle.

"Let's go!"

Sun Yuan jogged along.

The mall was still powered, and the elevator lights were still on, but Sun Yuan didn't dare to take the elevator, as the doors opening to a crowd of spore people would be disastrous.

So Sun Yuan chose the stairs.

He was cautious, but when he reached the first floor of the mall, he found no spore people, just an empty space.

Sun Yuan looked up at the upper floors, seeing almost no spore people.

"Be careful, there are surviving players here, and quite a few of them."

Sun Yuan warned.

If there were few surviving players, they wouldn't have been able to clear the spore people from the mall, and the fact that they could do this indicated that there was leadership among the players, not just a scattered group.

Thud!

Wei Dongmai looked at the jewelry stores and swallowed hard.

He knew his mother had wanted a gold ring for ten years, but it was too expensive for him to buy. Now, these gold jewelry items were there, unattended.

"Don't look, gold is the least useful thing now, not even as valuable as a bottle of mineral water!"

Sun Yuan glanced at the jewelry and lost interest.

This floor sold various high-end cosmetics, gold and silver jewelry, jade, and expensive watches like Rolex. Sun Yuan thought for a moment and headed to the Rolex counter.

"These are Rolexes!"

Wei Dongmai looked at the watches in the glass cabinets, feeling nervous because each one cost tens of thousands of yuan.

He might not be able to afford one even after delivering food for a year.

Sun Yuan wasn't so particular, picked a green-dialed watch, and put it on his left wrist.

He didn't know the model.

After Wei Dongmai also picked one, Sun Yuan went to the second floor.

This floor mainly sold women's clothing. Sun Yuan walked a few steps and stopped because a group of men, armed with kitchen knives, fire axes, and chains, blocked the way.

"This is our territory, get out!"

The leader was a middle-aged man in a security uniform, looking strong and muscular, holding a large red wrench, looking fierce.

"We have no ill intentions!"

Wei Dongmai tried to explain to avoid conflict.

"I don't care about your intentions, get out!"

The middle-aged man shouted.

"Are you the leader here?"

Sun Yuan asked.

This middle-aged man looked like a trained fighter. Sun Yuan glanced at him and noticed the large red wrench he held.

It was a rare-grade equipment.

Not only that, the middle-aged man was wearing white labor gloves, also a rare-grade equipment, with powerful additional effects, which were as valuable to Sun Yuan as dragon-slaying gear.

"Attack together!"

The middle-aged man didn't answer, but called out to his companions, who then surrounded and pressed forward.

"Brother Sun, you go first!"

Wei Dongmai's scalp tingled with fear. There were over thirty people on the other side, and they definitely couldn't win. They should run first.

Sun Yuan didn't move, but reached into his backpack and took out the explosive bat.

I was hoping you would attack,

That way, I would have a reason to take those labor gloves.

The middle-aged man, seeing Sun Yuan's calm face and the eager look in his eyes, felt a chill.

Oh no!

Could I have met a tough opponent?
