49 The Scumbag Male Supporting Character Whose Intelligence Was Artificially Nerfed in an Old-School Romance Novel (1)

At this moment, Valmet's heart was filled with boundless agitation and excitement. Overwhelmed by this intense emotion, she leaned forward abruptly and planted a fierce kiss on Lee Yalin's lips.

Whatever happened to the harem halo? What happened to the infatuation halo? Why did they all seem to vanish entirely upon arriving in this world?

Although initially, having been infected with the Gastrea virus, they were at best humans endowed with special powers, possessing strength roughly equivalent to that of a lower-tier devil.

"Understood, I have no further questions." After saying this, Lin Taizeng closed his eyes slightly once more, resuming his previous leisurely posture of an aged, carefree tortoise.

In Wu Cang's view, Chao Lingyi's normal reaction should have been one of panic and unease. Yet, looking at her now, it didn't resemble that at all; she even looked as if she were crying tears of joy, devoid of any sorrow.

When faced with agony and mortality, what good is an emperor? It seemed... no different from Prince Walker, Rockefeller, and their ilk.

"Then who shall lead this Avengers?" Tony Stark asked somewhat cryptically after Nick Fury had departed. Extremely worried that Jinglei might claim that position, he lost his composure a bit, failing to consider his words thoroughly while plotting to sabotage the decision should Jinglei indeed be named leader.

Formidable though the Blood Sea of the Netherworld was, along with the Underworld itself, it had vanished into some unknown void, utterly incapable of manifesting its might, and the Judge was already dead long ago. Apart from serving as a mere scenery, the Blood Sea materialized from the Judge's corpse was truly useless, which was rather a pity.

"Grand Patriarch?" Hearing this voice, Xu Yanyun and Li Cong's faces lit up with immense joy as they hurriedly turned to look toward the entrance of the grand hall.

"Uh... no, don't overthink it. If you really have that intention, naturally I have a way to keep you youthful." Jing Tian felt a warm stir in his heart, provoked by Emma's spoiled tone, and hastily offered an explanation.

The wounded soldiers numbered three hundred and twenty-six in total, and their daily evening meals were settled with Sun's parents by the Lin family.

With a thundercloud hovering directly above his head, should An Bochen return to the grotto-heaven paradise, the Round Well Sect and he himself would undoubtedly be exposed under the broad daylight.

Chu Bo opened the hidden spatial store. Originally, that store resembled an online marketplace, functioning merely as a webpage, except that the items inside were bizarre and varied. Moreover, the display screen was larger than a computer monitor, taking up an entire wall. Chu Bo typed in "Anti-Alien Espionage Device No. 1," and the listed acquisition price was: fifty thousand.

"You flatter me, elder. Please rest assured, our establishment is a century-old brand with shops extending all the way to the capital, and we never engage in despicable practices," the short, plump young man said with a righteous expression.

Tang Jingyun smiled, her outward expression unchanged, while inwardly she had already chewed over and over upon every word he had just spoken at least a dozen times. She simply refused to believe that the head of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, with so many matters on his plate, would have the leisure to attend a gathering like this.

Even though she was in this state now, many people could not help but feel a lingering sense of awe toward her. Power inspires awe—it has been so since ancient times.

The door of the Lin residence remained shut—that dilapidated door. For years it had never closed tightly, yet now, with Hu Da guarding the threshold, everyone in the Lin family felt certain that no one could possibly push that broken door open.

Xu Feng and Tang Xiaowu exchanged a glance, watching the hurried figure of Bai Bairu ahead of them, and shared a knowing smile.

He felt too embarrassed to directly unleash his perception to probe the other's condition, but as a doctor, he possessed at least that basic common sense.

In the vast Mercenary City, when this red glow ignited, a clamor of noisy chatter rippled through the air. The cluster of buildings situated toward the northern part of the Mercenary City was a typical zone of luxury, where prosperity drove up the scarcity of land, dragging in countless wealthy and powerful individuals who vied for every inch of precious ground.

Still, the point remained: Li Qing wanted entry into their inner circle, not merely a well-paying job.

Grinning broadly at Huang Ben, Lu Bu flexed his arms with sudden force, tossing two robust Huainan soldiers forward like rag dolls as they landed right before him.

Liu Lin's face flushed crimson. She truly never expected her boyfriend to stoop to pimping, especially after realizing that Liu Zai had tagged along as well.

Yet today, Liu Dan always felt she fell just a fraction short compared to Vivian Hsu, Li Bingbing, and Jiang Qinqin.

Having once fought merely to fill their stomachs, they felt a roaring fire ignite within their chests after listening to Lu Bu's address.

"No, no, no..." Jiang Hansxue's mind instantly descended into a chaotic tangle: Your mother-in-law? Wouldn't that also make her my mother-in-law?

The sensation of having meat dangled right at the lips yet being unable to eat it was hardly pleasant. Having experienced it once or twice was enough; she certainly had no wish to endure it repeatedly.

Chen Ya's high-spec V-Strom motorcycle had a fuel tank capacity of 22 liters, which could be filled for at most two hundred yuan, and a single full tank could easily run six hundred kilometers.

To achieve such a feat would be utterly impossible for anyone else, but for Jiang Chao, who had mastered the forces of Yin and Yang, it was an entirely different story.

And using false intelligence to set a trap and lure the master out did not seem particularly difficult either... His forbearance over all these years had indeed earned him the corresponding trust.

"You really are something; you still have the mood to joke at a time like this..." Chu Yun shook his head helplessly and said. Well, though he himself was much the same—is this what they mean by "it takes one to know one"?

Lin Chen was also startled. Fortunately, possessing agile agility and extraordinary reflexes, he retreated a few steps just in time, clamped his legs together, and hastily shielded his crotch with both hands, thereby escaping disaster.

The crowd stood at a stalemate with the three horse bandits. Wang Jin refrained from acting purely to observe the techniques of these bandit sorcerers. With little choice, given his limited exposure, he figured the mission should be considered complete anyway, so he might as well seize this opportunity to witness what sorcerers were capable of.

Thinking along these lines, his anxiety grew even more urgent. He lifted the curtain to take a look and saw Liu Yufang sitting quietly inside the carriage with her red bridal veil lowered, showing no intention of fleeing whatsoever, which finally allowed him to breathe a sigh of relief.
