Chapter 400 After Dinner, Go Kill
Chapter 400 of "Kaidan Game Train: Abide Rule or Die!" opens revealing: Chapter 400: Chapter 400 After Dinner, Go Kill"Why should I teach you? Whatâs in it... Keep going!
Chapter 400: Chapter 400 After Dinner, Go Kill"Why should I teach you? Whatâs in it for me?" Madame Butterfly said with slight malice, "Youâre ignorant of too many things, you need to offer something if you want me to teach you. Otherwise, give me Rose Castle, and Iâll consider teaching you."
Xu Huo smiled faintly, "Even without your help, I can learn it sooner or later, itâs just a matter of time. Besides, Iâve just entered the game, thereâs no rush."
She was going on and on about terms with him, but it wasnât necessarily true that she really wanted Rose Castle.
Madame Butterfly turned her head to look at him, "Arenât you after the weapons from Rongxin Group? Without any allies, you alone wouldnât stand a chance."
"No allies," Xu Huo said, "I merely stumbled upon this matter, and I donât necessarily have to get involved. Besides, like you said, thereâs too much I donât know. What if I encounter an advanced player? It would be like delivering myself to them on a platter. Staying at Rose Castle is quite nice."
"But I do know some other information, you can offer something in exchange for it."
Madame Butterfly produced a small fan in her hand, "A few words and you think you can turn the tables? Do you think youâre safe just by staying here? I can go back to Duke Tal and let slip some interesting information. After all, he doesnât like you much, and you just happened to have followed Veyson Meni around in the game. You probably canât stay in Zone 011 much longer."
"Otherwise, go to District 001, He Pu left something for you there, why donât you go get it? Too bad you donât know how to find it, you donât even know how to use the gemstone in the photo album."
She sneered maliciously, "Good things are wasted on you. When other players kill you, Iâll be sure to collect your corpse."
"No need to collect my corpse, just remember to take Rose Castle with you to prevent another fugitive from cannibalizing here," said Xu Huo indifferently.
Madame Butterflyâs expression darkened slightly, "Identify the location of Rongxinâs arms trade and come up with a viable plan. If you canât, Iâll kill you. If youâre afraid of dying, use your tickets to run away. Fugitives are despicable, but a loser like you holding onto Rose Castle isnât any better!"
Having said that, she left Xu Huoâs Spiritual World, filled with rage.
In the garden, the expressions of the two facing each other grew lively. Seeing Madame Butterfly about to leave, Xu Huo said, "Itâs almost time for dinner."
Still with an impassive face, it seemed the recent threats were nothing but wind blowing past her ears, in one ear and out the other.
Madame Butterfly got even more angry, "Iâm going out to kill, should I have dinner first?"
"The food is already prepared; it wonât hurt to eat and then go," Xu Huo calmly said, "It looks like itâs about to rain. Need an umbrella?"
Madame Butterfly left him with a cold and graceful silhouette.
Once she departed, Xu Huo sat back down and pondered the events that had just occurred within the Spiritual World.
As Madame Butterfly had said, he had no knowledge of He Puâs matters. Of course, he was also doubtful about He Puâs selection of an heir. After all, Mr. Dong wasnât truly human, so his perspective on issues was different, and some matters might not be clear, but it was possible to coax some information out of Madame Butterfly.
Despite her reticence, a single confrontation had broadened his understanding of the super evolution of spiritual power.
Compared to him, Madame Butterflyâs Spiritual World was extremely flexible, and the zippers symbolizing her doors came in black, silver, and gold. When the colors upgraded, the strength of her spiritual power also increased.
Even though she had caused trouble in the library, he felt that she hadnât shown much of her real strength. In the end, a door was just a door. Like she had said, she had hidden her true Spiritual World.
Hidden away, he could also hide away the first floor of his own.
Closing his eyes, Xu Huo contemplated how to conceal his own Spiritual World.
"Dinnerâs ready," Mr. Dong said as he approached, and asked, "Should I save some food for Madame Butterfly?"
"Stay," he opened his eyes and added, "Do you know her taste?"
"Iâm not sure," Mr. Dong said.
"She likes it spicy, but not too spicy. Also, prepare a cold drink that clears heat. I find sheâs quite prone to getting agitated," Xu Huo said.
Mr. Dong complied.
After dinner, Xu Huo went to his study and didnât return to his room to sleep until late at night.
When he woke up, Madame Butterfly was already sitting at the dining table in a red dress, having breakfast.
She had taken the hostâs seat, so Xu Huo could only sit to the side.
The two finished the meal without interfering with each other. After breakfast, Duke Tal sent someone to pick her up, saying he wanted to introduce her to a few friends. Meanwhile, Xu Huo received a call from Shi Youzhi, asking for his assistance at the base.
As they were leaving, the rain hadnât stopped. Xu Huo took the initiative to hold an umbrella over her head and glanced at the gemstone hairpin in her hair, "Itâs beautiful, it suits you."
Madame Butterfly was expressionlessly escorted to the car by him.
After watching the car drive away, Xu Huo drove to the baseâthe car was provided by the base, he had only the right to use it, not to dispose of it, and would have to return it if he ever quit.
Shi Youzhi had asked him to help with organizing documents.
There was not much work at the base recently, so San Yang had him re-categorize the old archives in the storeroom, destroy the ones that were too old and free up some space.
"These are the ones, take a look and sort them out. Put the ones from before the past five years aside," Ai Jia said.
Xu Huo looked at the pile of square boxes like a mountain.
These boxes were equivalent to the paper documents of Zone 014. Even though technology had advanced to the point where any documents could be stored as data, having separate physical archives was necessary.
These square boxes were like specialized hard drives that required specific terminals to read. Unless there was a special interface from the Game Government, the boxes would self-destruct if attempted to be used with other devices or outside of the base.
"EG23876 orbital error records, EH992332 orbital attack records, EG2344024 orbital weather anomaly records..." Xu Huo, holding a box, asked, "These records are only a few years old, do we really need to destroy them?"
"The game world, especially the changes in dimensional tracks, is particularly fast. Sometimes, a dayâs weather can fill up a record disk," Ai Jia said. "Especially when dimensions are shifting. Some spatial interfaces are irregular and change quickly, making them not very valuable for reference."
"You canât feel the changes outside when sitting in the car," Xu Huo said.
"Of course," Ai Jia explained, "dimensional trains travel during the day through relatively stable areas, only passing through those spatial disorder points at night. But these places occasionally have high radiation, and even looking at them with your eyes can cause harm, so everything is shielded."
"So itâs hard to survive outside the trains?" Wan Tingfang was also present. She asked, "How do the Aliens survive then?"
"Havenât you noticed that those Aliens look quite bizarre?" Ai Jia said. "Their lifespans are extremely short. They canât live for long."
"If itâs a place of spatial disorder, how come there are endless Aliens appearing?" Xu Huo asked. "Are the areas around the tracks connected to replica worlds too?"
She Ping looked at him in surprise, "Youâre right, some tracks are indeed connected to replica worlds, but those are high-danger replicas."
