Chapter 151 – Lin • Time Management • Master


“The door is not locked!”

Lin Baici shouted, looking at Li Wei’s face on the video: “I’ll come find you next weekend. Let me know if you need money. I recently received a bonus!”

“What bonus?”

Li Wei was curious and lowered his voice: “Can you show me what a rich woman looks like? If she’s pretty, it’s not impossible!”

Lin Baici ignored his childhood friend and ended the video call, getting up from the bed.

“Chatting?”

Nangong Shu entered through the door, holding a tray with a glass of milk, a plate of diced fruits, and a piece of cake.

“Yes, classmate!”

Lin Baici looked at the attentive landlady and quickly declined: “Thank you, but I’m already full.”

“It’s the time to grow, so eat more!”

The landlady placed the items on the table and didn’t seem to have any intention of leaving. Instead, she sat on the bed: “Thank you for today!”

“These ordinary foods are rubbish to you. You need meteorites and divine remains, foods that contain divine power!”

“Hurry and enter God’s Ruins!”

“I just did what I could.”

Lin Baici modestly replied.

“What you can do is a lifesaving grace to others.”

The landlady handed the milk to Lin Baici: “Drink it while it’s hot.”

“…”

Lin Baici wanted to say, how can I drink it when you’re here?

The landlady was wearing a floral pajama, probably made of silk. It looked soft and smooth, perfectly outlining her voluptuous figure.

And it seemed like she wasn’t wearing a bra.

Who could resist that?

Lin Baici felt that the landlady was challenging his weakness.

Of course, it could also be that she was used to dressing like this at home.

“A landlady who has a good impression of you. Don’t underestimate her just because you’re 1.9 meters tall. You might not be able to handle it.”

Lin Baici took the milk and found that it was lukewarm, just the right temperature to drink. This showed the landlady’s thoughtfulness.

“I heard from Hongyao that you’re a freshman at Haijing University?”

Nangong Shu teased: “There are very few girls in that school.”

“It’s alright!”

Lin Baici thought of Zhu Qiunan. It didn’t matter if there were few girls, as long as the quality was high. Besides, there was also Gu Qingxiang, who could elevate the quality of the girls at Haijing University.

Actually, Ji Xinyan in his class was also very beautiful. She could easily be crowned as the campus belle. However, her dressing style was too trendy and fashionable.

Many girls learned how to dress from Xiaohongshu, but Ji Xinyan taught others how to dress on Xiaohongshu.

Bai Jiao’s looks were slightly inferior to Ji Xinyan’s, but being fair-skinned covered a multitude of flaws. Lin Baici hardly spoke to her because her behavior seemed aloof.

“The Immortal Emperor of Ten Thousand Ages.”

To put it simply, she was the kind of girl who seemed unattainable.

“Hehe, there will be fierce competition among you boys. You should be prepared.”

Nangong Shu looked at Lin Baici and clicked her tongue. From the side, his facial features were also handsome: “Hai Xi has many beautiful girls, but with two schools, these four years of dating will be tough!”

“Eating together, watching the moon together, studying together. It should be the happiest time!”

Nangong Shu remembered her own university days, which were mostly spent in training.

What a pity.

“Yeah!”

Lin Baici nodded. He was looking forward to it, but the problem was that he hadn’t seen a girl who made his heart race yet.

“Are you tired? Let me give you a massage to relax.”

Nangong Shu patted the bed: “Come, lie down!”

“No need!”

Before Lin Baici could finish speaking, the landlady grabbed his arm and forcefully pressed him onto the bed.

“Milk!”

Lin Baici still had the milk in his hand and couldn’t struggle too hard, or else it would spill. Then he felt something soft sitting on his lower back.

And then his shoulder was held by ten slender fingers.

“Do you work out often?”

Nangong Shu felt that Lin Baici’s body was strong and muscular.

“No!”

Lin Baici held the milk in his left hand, being pressed down by the landlady on his back, making him feel insecure.

If the other party suddenly attacked, he wouldn’t be able to resist in this position. So, purely out of instinct, Lin Baici activated the Divine Enchantment and summoned a small clay figurine.

Nangong Shu was very perceptive and sensed the fluctuation of divine power within Lin Baici. She knew that he had activated his divine abilities.

This made her feel a mix of emotions.

Lin Baici being valued by Xia Hongmian proved that he had some skills.

“Relax!”

Nangong Shu tugged at Lin Baici’s ear.

Although he was on guard, the landlady wasn’t annoyed. Instead, she admired Lin Baici even more.

To survive and grow to the Dragon level, one must always maintain this kind of vigilance.

“Aunt Shu!”Lin Baici felt overwhelmed and unsure of what to do.

“Do you think I’m randomly pressing? This is a divine blessing!”

Nangong Shu explained, and her hands lit up with a white light. They could dispel fatigue, relieve muscle soreness, and even heal wounds and scars.

Of course, the most important effect was the spiritual comfort.

Nangong Shu’s massage made a person feel like they were back in the cradle, wrapped in gentleness and comfort, filled with a sense of security.

When the person being massaged was in this state, their guard against Nangong Shu would greatly decrease. Although they wouldn’t answer every question, they would open up and feel that Nangong Shu understood them well, like a trusted aunt.

Nangong Shu didn’t have any intention of prying into Lin Baici’s words. She simply wanted to help him relieve his fatigue, but she found that Lin Baici’s spirit was still excited and hadn’t calmed down.

This willpower was quite strong.

Nangong Shu took the milk from Lin Baici’s hand and placed it on the bedside table.

Her divine blessings leaned towards the spiritual aspect, and she found it troublesome to encounter people like Lin Baici with strong willpower because the effects would be greatly reduced.

“Aunt Shu, do you know about the God’s Ruins in Busan?”

Lin Baici felt the need to distract himself, or else he would feel too uncomfortable.

“Why are you asking about that God’s Ruins?”

Nangong Shu was puzzled. It was currently the hottest topic in the Divine Hunter Circle, the underground palace located in the Qinling Mountains.

“I have a friend who invited me to explore the God’s Ruins in Busan!”

Lin Baici only knew one Divine Hunter, Xia Hongyao. She was skilled in fighting but not very helpful in giving advice…

Sorry, someone with big breasts and low intelligence like her couldn’t do much.

Now that he had met Nangong Shu and experienced the crazy maid’s Divine Taboo game together, Lin Baici felt that the boss lady’s character was decent and he could try to develop a friendship with her.

“That friend of yours in the Goryeo Hunter Circle must have a lot of power!”

Nangong Shu explained, “The Goryeo people are very stingy. They always want to explore the God’s Ruins in other countries, but when it comes to their own, they guard it tightly and never allow outsiders to intervene, even if they can’t break through. They keep it to themselves. But if you can get in, just selling what you see and hear inside can earn you a lot of money!”

“Of course, with your vision, you probably wouldn’t care about that little money.”

The atmosphere in the bedroom gradually quieted down.

“Aunt Shu, you think highly of me, and I think highly of you too!”

Lin Baici thought to himself that he was just a poor guy who couldn’t even afford a villa like this.

“Hehe, if you need money, you can be my little wolf dog.”

Nangong Shu teased.

Lin Baici didn’t dare to continue this topic and quickly changed the subject, “Is it worth exploring the God’s Ruins in Busan?”

“There are several God’s Ruins in Goryeo that are worth exploring, and Busan is one of them. It’s a ten-year God’s Ruin.”

Nangong Shu shared everything she knew, “It is said that there is a divine being inside, and the main radiation pollution turns people into living dead.”

“In general God’s Ruins, if humans can’t leave in time, they will gradually turn into dead flesh. Some of them will attack humans, while others won’t. But in the God’s Ruins in Busan, there are living dead who will crazily attack any living beings!”

“If you go in, make sure to bring enough firearms! Bullets may not be effective against the dead flesh, but they are still quite powerful against the living dead!”

Lin Baici nodded to show that he remembered.

“We also have many ten-year God’s Ruins in Kyushu. If not, you can go to Dongying, Europa, or even Egypt. In these God’s Ruins, corresponding Divine Taboos from history will be produced. Goryeo used to be our vassal state, so even if there are good things, they are leaked out by our ancestors!”

Nangong Shu’s voice was gentle, and listening to her speak was truly enjoyable.

“I think I’ll explore the smaller God’s Ruins first!”

Lin Baici didn’t want to be reckless. It was best to develop steadily.

“Did your friend mention how much tax they collect?”

When exploring God’s Ruins, Divine Hunters had to pay taxes to the country where the God’s Ruins were located based on the value of the spoils. “If it exceeds thirty percent, then don’t go. It’s just working for nothing!”

“No taxes!”

Lin Baici chuckled.

Jin Yingzhen said that all the profits would belong to him, and she would even give him ten thousand Meteor Coins and an A-grade Divine Taboo.

It seemed like she was very sincere.

“Why are the Goryeo people suddenly so generous?”

Nangong Shu furrowed her brows slightly, “There’s no such thing as a free lunch. Xiaobai, you have to be careful. They definitely have ulterior motives!”

“I know!”

Lin Baici felt Nangong Shu moving down and sitting on his thigh, starting to massage his kidneys.

“You know?”

Nangong Shu was curious, “Can you tell me?”

“They want to dig me up!”There’s nothing to hide, anyway Lin Baici doesn’t plan to go: “Let me join the official Goryeo Divine Hunter organization!”

“Sejong Zheng?”

Nangong Shu was surprised.

“Yes!”

Lin Baici remembered the name of this organization.

“Who is the one who wants to recruit you?”

Nangong Shu was curious: “If it’s just anyone, don’t believe it!”

“Jin Xian!”

Lin Baici thought to himself that even if it was Sejong Zheng’s big boss, he wouldn’t go.

“It’s him?”

Nangong Shu sighed in relief: “No wonder!”

“Is this person famous?”

Since he couldn’t refuse, Lin Baici decided to enjoy it. He had never had a massage before, but that didn’t stop him from thinking that the boss’s technique was great.

“He is the leader of the Taiji Tiger Corps, known as the descendant of the sun, one of Goryeo’s iconic figures, and one of Sejong Zheng’s successors. Do you think he’s famous?”

Nangong Shu was shocked. He didn’t expect that this person would be interested in Lin Baici.

But thinking about the genius recruitment terms Xia Hongmian offered to Lin Baici, and looking back at his performance in the crazy maid and other god-forbidden games, Lin Baici was definitely worth recruiting.

As for the treatment, Nangong Shu didn’t ask, but since it was Jin Xian who made the move, it definitely wouldn’t be shabby.

“What is his character like?”

“No stains for now, good reputation!”

Nangong Shu reminded: “But I still suggest you not go to Busan God’s Ruins. Even if Jin Xian sincerely recruits you, what about the others?”

“For them, you are still a foreigner after all, and they will definitely cause trouble for you.”

[What does an old clam know? This trip to Busan must be taken. I can give up anything, but not the divine food.]

Food God’s comment.

After a brief conversation, Lin Baici’s phone rang, it was a video call from Xiaoyuren.

“…”

Who dares to answer this?

The boss is still sitting on his back.

Seeing Lin Baici hesitate, Nangong Shu guessed what he was worried about, so he got off him: “You should rest early!”

The boss went out and closed the door for Lin Baici.

Lin Baici clicked to answer, and Hua Yueyu’s bare face immediately appeared on the screen.

“What are you doing? It took you so long?”

Hua Yueyu saw Lin Baici’s background: “Eh? You’re not at school?”

Fortunately, it doesn’t look like a hotel, otherwise the female anchor would suspect that Lin Baici was having an affair with another woman.

“Yeah, I’m at a friend’s house. It’s too late, so I didn’t leave!”

Lin Baici sat up.

“Hongyao is here too!”

Lin Baici didn’t know why he added this sentence.

But when Hua Yueyu heard it, her worried mood immediately disappeared.

With Xia Hongyao following, Lin Baici definitely wouldn’t be able to do certain things conveniently.

“Xiaobai, let me tell you, someone at today’s dinner wanted to get me drunk, but I punched him twice and he got drunk.”

The Drunken Immortal Fist in alcohol is simply a divine skill.

With just a few light punches, the opponent couldn’t bear it.

I really want more divine favor, but the God’s Ruins are too difficult. It’s easy to get cold. But with Xiaobai, it should be safer, right?

Hua Yueyu had a bit of a talkative nature and chattered about her own affairs.

Lin Baici listened quietly and occasionally responded.

When Hua Yueyu said she was tired and was about to change positions, her movements were too big and the small bag on her body slipped off her shoulder.

Lin Baici saw a small purse.

“Oops!”

Hua Yueyu was startled, her face turned red all of a sudden, and she quickly hung up the video call.

Three minutes later, Xiaoyuren sent another video call.

“The signal is bad, I need to change phones!”

Lin Baici changed the topic.

“Hey, Xiaobai, do you not want to take responsibility?”

Xiaoyuren questioned.

“No, what did I do?”

Lin Baici looked confused.

“Hehe, did I scare you?”

Hua Yueyu said proudly: “Let me tell you, my boxing skills are very high, specialized in dealing with scumbags!”

Xiaoyuren was still wearing the same suspender, she didn’t change her clothes, which meant that she didn’t mind being seen by Lin Baici if she accidentally exposed herself.

If Lin Baici took the initiative, he could easily win over this female anchor.

Unfortunately, he didn’t have that awareness.

The two chatted for a while and ended the call.

Lin Baici looked at the time.

Oh!

It’s been over half an hour.

This won’t do!

I can’t waste my precious time like this!

Lin Baici felt it was necessary to manage his time, and then there was another video call.

It was from Goryeo Mei.

“Oppa, good evening!”

Jin Yingzhen smiled sweetly.

“You’re too disciplined, aren’t you?”

Lin Baici saw Jin Yingzhen running.

The phone was placed on the treadmill stand, capturing Jin Yingzhen’s upper body.

She was wearing a sports vest, tightly squeezing her chest. Because of the running, it was bouncing up and down, drawing a beautiful curve.

“I have to be disciplined to match up with Oppa!”Jin Yingzhen looked at him with a mournful expression, “Oppa, you never initiate a conversation with me!”

“…”

Lin Baici was at a loss. Indeed, he had never sought out Jin Yingzhen.

Or rather, he had never sought out Hua Yueyu either.

From a friend’s perspective, it seemed like he had been neglecting them.

“I called you this morning, but your phone was off. Did you encounter another Divine Taboo?”

Jin Yingzhen teased. However, seeing Lin Baici’s silence, she was taken aback, “Don’t tell me, you really encountered it again?”

“Yes.”

Lin Baici nodded.

“…”

Jin Yingzhen was speechless. Oppa, what kind of luck do you have?

Did the goddess of luck hold a grudge against you?

“Are you hurt?”

Jin Yingzhen looked at Lin Baici, who seemed to be in good condition, and felt that he should be fine.

“No.”

Lin Baici didn’t think his luck was bad. Because this time, he had made a fortune again.

First, he had eliminated two members of the Lost Coast, averting a crisis. Then, he received a divine blessing called Meat Smash, followed by twelve Divine Taboos.

Holy crap!

How many?

Lin Baici counted and was shocked himself, finding it hard to believe.

Wasn’t this too much?

The Dream Spinning Top, the Colossus Power Gloves, the WWII Ula Badge, the Cursed Dagger, these were all spoils of war obtained after killing.

The Champion Dart, the Coffee Machine, and the Gothic Handheld Lamp in the gift box were rewards for clearing the level.

The Butcher Mask, the Gluttonous Apron, the Voodoo Staff, the Goblin King Card, these were spoils obtained from purifying the Divine Taboo.

In addition, there was the Lover’s Lipstick given by the Leather Pants Girl, as well as thousands of Meteor Coins owed by others.

All in all, he had made a killing this time.

Lin Baici suddenly felt like having another round.

In the black pot, there was a pair of white stockings left by the Crazy Maid. If he sniffed them, he could summon her for another ‘Master Game’.

Unfortunately, he had to participate in this game himself. Otherwise, he could directly give these white stockings away to trap others.

“You better not leave the school recently!”

Jin Yingzhen sincerely suggested.

“It’s probably a coincidence!”

Lin Baici chuckled. He planned to visit his childhood friend next week and didn’t think he would encounter another Divine Taboo.

After chatting for more than ten minutes, Jin Yingzhen tactfully ended the conversation.

“Oppa, you should rest early!”

It seemed that Oppa was not interested in athletic girls. What kind of clothes should I wear next time?

“You should go to bed early too!”

Lin Baici put away his phone and took out the large gift box.

Upon opening it,

A Western Gothic-style oil lamp appeared before him. The black metal body of the lamp was engraved with images of Western gods and demons.

【Ghost Oil Lamp, no need to light it, just blow on it twice, and it will automatically light up!】

【In the world, there are always things that people can’t see. When you hold this oil lamp, you will see them!】

【Don’t use it when passing by graveyards, ancient houses, or dilapidated castles!】

【If you want to seek thrills, you can take it out for a spin late at night!】

Food review.

【What does a female ghost taste like? I really want to chew on one to find out!】
