Chapter 402 Kneel, Call Father!
Tian Du City.
At the police station. Lu Ming looked up at the building. I hope… that I won’t become familiar with this hellish place! Zhang Yang was originally the president of Qing Ming City’s Card Creators Association. He was currently the head of the publicity department of the Sword Card Master Association. He was quick-witted, happy go lucky and an expert in marketing. This was a talent. This was despite the fact that he deserved a beating occasionally. Even Lu Ming could not control his urge to give Zhang Yang a round of beatings sometimes. However, he could not bear to do that personally. He eventually had to get someone else to do that.
Of course.
Putting aside these things, how did Zhang Yang end up in the police station? Lu Ming felt perplexed. As the head of the publicity department whose actions alternated between the fine line of ‘creating rumors’ and ‘creating hot topics amongst a circle of friends’, he should have a clear understanding of the laws in this area… Had something major happened?!
Hence…
Lu Ming walked into the building with large strides and found Zhang Yang. He then discovered that the situation was quite different from his imagination. Zhang Yang was the victim this time! This was because… He had been beaten up… “Damit! Dey actualie dare too beet mi! “Kil dem!”
Sitting on the wheelchair, Zhang Yang was so furious that he wanted to jump up and hit people. In front of him… There were a few teenagers who looked like they were fifteen or sixteen years old.
Lu Ming was speechless. “What is happening?” Lu Ming moved forward. “Wen I wen to do pubicizitie, de feww of tham cam n beet mi up..” Zhang Yang was furious. Lu Ming sighed and looked at the staff member. “I think it’s better for you to tell me about it.” “It’s like this…
The officer explained the situation. In fact, the situation was very simple. The publicity work of the crossroads college had reached a bottleneck… They had already reached out to those who were interested. As for those who were not interested, they would not pay attention to them at all… Zhang Yang then thought of some ‘amazing feats’ to advertise the crossroads college…
Hence…
He took some videos at the entrance of some colleges…
Ss–
Lu Ming gasped a breath of energy. Took…. videos? Entrance of the colleges?! “Those with two or three people?” Lu Ming said quietly. “No!
Zhang Yang was furious. He was chattering angrily. Cough, cough. The staff member coughed. “Take it look at them yourself.” Shush!
A screen popped out from Zhang Yang’s communication device.
The background was a certain college. Zhang Yang stood domineeringly at the entrance. “Look, this is the xx college. This is such a fine school! It’s very wonderful and powerful!” Having said that, he took out a publicity flyer. “We welcome everyone to register for enrollment at the affiliated crossroads college. It’s even more wonderful and powerful!”
Afterward…
He was beaten up by the students from the college.
Mixed martial arts and boxing.
Lu Ming was speechless. In fact, this kind of situation was very common in the world of his past life. However, only beautiful ladies dared to do that. Who could bear to beat them up?! But he was a middle-aged man… You should at least dress up as a woman before you carry out this sort of stunt?!
_→
Oh, no! He could be beaten up more if he did that…
Forget it.
Lu Ming took a deep breath. What else could he do?
He could only resign to fate!
However, he could tell from this matter that Zhang Yang had a very responsible attitude toward his job! He had been diligently advertising the affiliated college. What else could Lu Ming say? “You can rest assured!
“I will seek justice for you.” Lu Ming looked serious. Zhang Yang was their senior! Although he deserved a beating sometimes, they were the only ones who could beat him. How could he let other people do that? “The few of them have already apologized.” The officer explained, “Their parents have also forked out the medical expenses and lost income compensation. Mr. Zhang Yang has also agreed to settle this matter in private. He also requested everyone to sign a non-disclosure agreement and not reveal this to anyone.”
“Huh?”
Lu Ming was shocked. “Why did you ask me to come then?”
After a long time… Lu Ming wheeled Zhang Yang away from the detention center.
Yes.
He told Lu Ming to come this time because no one could wheel Zhang Yang home… This ridiculous fight, Zhang Yang actually won. “It’s been tough on you.”
Lu Ming heaved continuous sighs.
“Iz noting!
“Afteer all, I’vee competeed the gol!” Zhang Yang was very proud of himself. Although he was covered with bruises and lost some teeth, it was fine. He was long used to this! Most importantly, he had completed his publicity goal! “What gol?” Lu Ming was taken aback. “Goa!”
Zhang Yang switched on his communication device.
Shush!
The bright screen flickered.
Lu Ming then caught a clear glimpse of what Zhang Yang was referring to. It was the publicity goal for the Sword Card Master Association! “Look here!”
Zhang Yang typed swiftly and revealed a smug smile. A bright screen popped up in his communication device. Lu Ming leaned over curiously and was immediately stunned. The top trending topics in the circle of friends were actually – “Stunning News!!! Under Broad Daylight, In a Peaceful Era With Political Stability, a Few Students Actually Did that Kind of Thing to a Middle-aged Man!!!” “xx College tortured an old man to that extent under broad daylight?!”
“Jealousy Brings Out the Ugliness in One’s Heart! It TurnsOut that There Is Such a Good School!”
“They Beat Up an Elder Because They Regretted Attending xx College!” In the various articles, they would give a brief narration of a middle-aged man being beaten up at the entrance of a certain school. There would be a screenshot and then the various media could begin to come up with their own versions of the story…
They would weave up a story based on the picture.
Hence…
Various kinds of strange plots emerged. It was to the extent that… The tenth hottest trending topic was: “A Son Beat Up His Old and Retired Father! Is This a Tragedy of the Education Industry or Society?”
Lu Ming was speechless. Of course.
In these messy and disorganized articles, the Sword Card Master Association and the affiliated college were mentioned. The benefits were also mentioned.
Buzz
Buzz
His wristband vibrated constantly.
The data in the screen refreshed constantly and the various publicity statistics had already reached record highs!
The college at the crossroads had become popular again!
At the last phase of the student enrollment, the affiliated crossroads college had established its presence for the various college entrance examination students again. It had left a deep impression on them.
According to sources…
Someone had already included the college in his enrollment application.
That was enough. Lu Ming felt somewhat guilty. Look, this is such a kind person?! When he was at Qing Ming City, Zhang Yang took great care of him. Now that he had come to Tian Du City, Zhang Yang worked very hard. How could he view him with contempt?
“Don’t worry, senior, I…”
Before Lu Ming could finish his words.
Buzz
The wristband vibrated.
Lu Ming took a glance and his face instantly darkened.
“Stunning News! The Vice-principal of the Crossroads College Took Care of The Beaten Old Man In Person!” There was a photograph of Lu Ming wheeling Zhang Yang away. Lu Ming was speechless. You included me in your plot as well?
Wait a minute, did this guy deliberately get beaten up?! “You can rest assured! “I’ve already settled everything.” Zhang Yang typed out his words for Lu Ming. “There has to be an end to this matter. The vice-principal coming to fetch me was the best chance to show off our school!
“Of course.
“My identity can’t be hidden forever.
“But it does not matter.
“We can write a thumbnail declaration to refute the rumors at the bottom right corner of a regular article in a little known official website as preparation. Anyway, no one will pay attention to it. If anyone attacks us with this in the future, we will take out the declaration and say that we have already refuted the rumors, that we are also victims and so on… We will have another wave of popularity then,” Zhang Yang said this as if he had done this many times. Lu Ming was taken aback!
Fine.
Zhang Yang had taught himself all of the media’s swindling tactics from his past life… The outcome was striking but the consequences… “Senior, you will be beaten up like that again.” Lu Ming gave a deep sigh. “It’s okay!” Zhang Yang typed swiftly. “Who will beat me up for no reason!” What else could Lu Ming say? He pondered carefully and decided to help Zhang Yang apply for work injury compensation… After all, Zhang Yang was beaten up during work!
Hence…
He wheeled Zhang Yang back.
Suddenly… Cold winds flew past them. Midway through their journey home, snow suddenly drifted and sealed the road in front of them. A bone-chilling cold swept across and engulfed the entire area. A figure appeared at the end of the path. White-haired.
White clothing
White shoes.
A white mask covered the face and they could not catch a clear glimpse of what this person looked like. However, there was a pale white marking at the bottom right corner of their clothing with the words — Didi Beating. Lu Ming was speechless. Yes.
Someone had published a mission even before they arrived home!
How much do they detest him?! “You really have to be more mindful in the future.”
Lu Ming sighed.
Fortunately, he was around. Otherwise, Zhang Yang would be given another round of beatings! This was despite the fact that Zhang Yang was already used to it. Zhang Yang was silent. “Friend.” Lu Ming looked in front. “Who published the mission?”
Whoosh…
There was a cold breeze and no response.
That drifting white figure released a trace of coldness. The flying snowflakes suddenly enlarged and a snowstorm erupted! Are they going to fight… Lu Ming locked onto the enemy. The enemy was a five-star.
Lu Ming could annihilate this enemy at any point in time! After all, he had already begun to defeat six-stars when he was a four-star, much less now?!
However…
The enemy…
Whoosh!
Cold winds flew past him. Just as Lu Ming took a step forward, he could sense a gush of terrifying pressure overcoming him. The five-star level that he had just attained was actually affected at this moment. His energy prowess, energy speed and even consciousness had been significantly weakened! It reverted to the moment when he had just attained a four-star breakthrough! How could that be possible? Lu Ming’s expression changed drastically. “It’s the Environment Card!”
Zhang Yang messaged him swiftly. He had once seen this kind of card in the library of the Card Creators Association. Environment Card… Lu Ming suddenly had a moment of realization. The Environment Card was a card that only a six-star Card Creator could learn to create! This was a high level card and could completely change the environment of a certain area within a short time and thus change the enemy’s combat ability as well! For example… A flaming battleground! After changing the environment to a flaming site, it would increase the combat ability of a Fire Elementalist tremendously! Of course, in normal circumstances, very few people would use this during fights! The reason was very simple. It was very costly! The Environment Card was a one-time usage card. Furthermore, it was extremely difficult to make!
It involved the transformation of an entire area!
The energy of the entire area would be affected. The lines were complicated and one would need to use a lot of energy. Therefore, it was extremely difficult to create the card. It was typically used for the moment of breakthrough!
Or…
Peak six-star!
When one had reached peak six-star, could not break through to seven-star and needed to increase one’s combat ability, this kind of special Environment Card would come into play! Or perhaps…
It could be cast as a certain trump card. It would be nothing like now!!
Of course.
The Environment Card had another major characteristic— It could shield energy fluctuation and network signals. Basically, before the environment collapsed, the area would not transmit any energy. It was also an effective tool for committing bad deeds. However…
It was very expensive!
Even the assassin organizations would not use it often!
Even the six-star who assassinated Jiang Feng last time had waited for Jiang Feng to return home!
And right now… A fighter using the Didi Beating software cast an Environment Card as his first move!
Lu Ming felt perplexed. He very much wanted to inquire about the cost of this mission. Was it able to cover the costs of a top-notch six-star Environment Card?! Your brains must be leaking for you to use such a card!
It was a pity… He did not have the time to inquire. Bang! The cold breeze was piercingly cold. Under the influence of the Environment Card, the surroundings were completely buried by the snowstorm. The fighter in white displayed his true combat ability at the moment — Beginner five-star! Bang!
A snowball condensed in his hands! Elementalist! One that could control the snowstorm! Just as this idea flashed across Lu Ming’s mind, he saw the fighter in white release the snowball in his hands. Under the augmentation effect of the environment, its prowess was close to a six-star’s! Bang!
The snowstorm swept across them.
Lu Ming was amazed. What a top-notch six-star Environment Card!
It’s just that…
“Friend.
“You shouldn’t make a move here.” Lu Ming’s expression was indifferent. The fighter in white felt puzzled but he did not hesitate. He had cast the top-notch six-star Environment Card. Could Lu Ming stop his attack with just a few words?
Bang!
The snowstorm condensed.
The fighter in white increased the speed of his attack. He wanted to see where the confidence of this person came from? Four-star vs. six-star – there was no doubt about the outcome!
“Why bother?”
Lu Ming sighed. Shush! He lifted his hand slightly and squeezed the Original Card in his hands.
Buzz
Xiao-Xiaojian shone. “Moonblade!” Lu Ming cast this move calmly. Shush!
Golden lightning flashed around them.
In that instant, the snowstorm which filled the sky exploded. The golden shine dashed toward the fighter in white. However, it was only for a moment. The snowstorm re-condensed and drowned the lightning glow of the Moonblade. The four-star prowess was too weak! The Environment Card was very powerful and it eradicated all unknown energy!
Over there…
There was no accident.
Bang!
The re-condensed snowstorm engulfed a wider area and completely drowned Lu Ming like ocean waves. Nevertheless, just at this moment…
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Cold lights flashed.
Beams of lights condensed and the snowstorm collapsed.
Bang!
There was a deafening sound.
The super resilient Environment Card had collapsed instantly!
“You…
“How is that possible?” That fighter in white was completely baffled. To hell with it! How is this possible?! He could sense this sudden and terrifying aura and was greatly alarmed! He was merely a five-star and could release such horrifying powers despite the Environment Card… He looked up and his expression froze. At a place near Lu Ming that should have been covered by the snowstorm, one by one, crystal clear Original Cards emerged and were suspended by Lu Ming’s side. They were shining brightly! Each Original Card exuded a powerful aura! One card, two cards, three cards… There were a total of ten cards suspended neatly in the air, releasing a powerful aura! Six-star! Six-star!
All of them were six-stars!!!
Of course.
The only thing that was odd was these Original Cards were still carrying freshly prepared dragon bone sour and spicy noodles, braised phoenix tail and various expensive foods!
Yes.
This was the food delivery army from the Sword Card Master Association!!! When Xiao-Xiaojian released a danger alarm, the Original Cards nearby rushed there immediately and provided reinforcements to help Lu Ming in the fight! “In that case…”
Lu Ming raised his hand gently. Shush!
Ten Original Cards suspended and shone in the air. Their terrifying auras locked onto the fighter in white in front of them.
The murderous intent was obvious! “Kneel!
“Call me father!”
