Capítulo 1051: Chapter 824: 72-Hour Warning (Second Update)

(Third update after 90 minutes)

Seeing Mr. George’s wary look, Mu Fan sighed.

“I probably don’t need to say much about what’s going to happen next… You should hide, at most… 72 hours.”

“72 hours… What happens if time is up?” George pondered for a moment and realized Mu Fan seemed to be talking about the Blood Teeth Team!

Should he hide?

Could he really hide from the Blood Teeth Team?

But what does this 72 hours mean?

“Maybe not, you just need to listen to the broadcast… I’m very sorry for today’s incident.”

After he finished speaking, Mu Fan’s figure vanished entirely.

The bar’s current miserable condition was ultimately related to him.

But if he were to compensate… it’s too much money, so better to leave now.

Mu Fan, with a profound look, drifted far away like this.

Leaving the bar owner in utter confusion.

The last statement, that timing, made just listening to it send a chill from George’s heart.

That youth, what was his background…

Suddenly recalling the corpse hanging above his bar entrance, Mr. George felt a wave of nausea inside.

The customers couldn’t bear it after seeing Mu Fan strolling away like this.

“Mr. George, although we are all civil people, this behavior has severely hurt our feelings.”

“We were waiting for your call, and then you just let him go like that!”

…

A group of people indignantly stared at George, and the atmosphere in Maple Leaf Bar instantly turned tense.

Only George sighed and pulled at his collar.

“Didn’t you see the one delivering a package? What he has is a nuclear detonator.”

Everyone: “…”

The room suddenly calmed down.

“George, may the brilliance of the stars be with you.”

“George, I’ll come back after three days, take care.”

“You’re a good man, I’m definitely your friend.”

…

These people warmly greeted George, then one by one, they came over to hug and kiss his cheek…

Just like friends saying goodbye, filled with reluctance.

The bartenders instantly understood their boss’ hardship, their eyes filled with admiration.

“Boss, what should we do now?”

Mr. George looked at the suddenly empty Maple Leaf Bar, a gleam of a gambler’s all-out gamble flashed in his eyes.

“Lift up Chax and clean up the corpse at the entrance.”

“Close the bar and put up a ‘Closed for Renovation’ sign.”

“Later, I’ll advance you guys one week’s salary; wait for my news after 72 hours.”

“And now…”

George’s voice calmed, spreading his arms: “Exert your mole-like ability to escape.”

All the bartenders stood firm and then boomed loudly: “Yes, Boss!”

Over twenty bartenders simultaneously took off their coats, revealing colorful shirts underneath.

Then these people simultaneously threw away sunglasses and scatterguns, somehow pulling out tattered coats…

An impeccable scavenger team instantly appeared before George.

Even the unconscious Chax had been changed into patched pajamas.

Ten seconds later, the entire bar was empty and deserted.

As if these people had never been here at all.

George’s self-talk echoed in the empty bar.

“Heads, trust the kid. Tails, betray him.”

A hundred yuan coin imprinted with Capital’s star map was tossed casually by him.

Under the light, the coin’s trajectory was clear and bright.

Ting.

The coin hit the floor.

Spin…

Finally stopping when it rolled to his feet.

A clear number “100” gleamed with luster.

“It’s fate.”

George pouted, shrugged, then stepped on the coin and calmly walked out of the bar.

Behind him, an energy shield instantly enveloped the Maple Leaf Bar.

From beginning to end, this boss who always preferred a civilized and elegant persona never glanced at the Maple Leaf sign.

Isn’t life always a gamble?

If he wins, Maple Leaf Bar could become exceptionally popular.

In Oasis City, there wouldn’t be a second bar as glorious.

If he loses the bet…

Then grovel for mercy.

As for whether begging will result in survival…

“If death, then it’s death.”

Casually lighting a cigarette, at this moment a vagrant accidentally bumped into him, hastily apologizing with repeated bows.

However, on George’s face, which always maintained caution and “civilization” within the bar, flashed a hint of a sinister smile as he grabbed the vagrant’s collar and pulled him close.

Pressed the cigarette directly onto the vagrant’s forehead, amidst the sound of charred flesh, painful cries emerged.

“Pretending to be civilized is really exhausting. You must be new here. Put down my wallet honestly, kneel, and knock your head a hundred times, and I’ll let you go.”

Carefree, he snuffed the cigarette, ignoring the other’s crying, George’s face showed no tension.

Outside Maple Leaf Bar, he no longer needed to wear that tiresome mask.

Now, he was just a gambler betting everything.

…

Mu Fan and Lu Qingxue walked side by side.

Behind them, a burly man followed silently and solemnly.

Finally, after walking for ten minutes, Mu Fan felt the atmosphere was strange and stopped, turning around.

“How should I address you, sir?”

“Enzie Johnson! You can call me Johnson!” The man in the jacket hesitated for a moment, then replied.

“Mr. Johnson… the employment is over now, you don’t need to follow us.”

Mu Fan gestured towards the path they had taken.

After all, this person was a Galaxy Transport courier, and Mu Fan had observed his diligent attitude earlier, showing him great respect.

But this constant following… always made Mu Fan feel uneasy.

“Oh, but… my spaceship is just outside the exit ahead.”

Mr. Johnson’s voice carried some innocence.

“…”

Mu Fan’s expression remained calm as he raised his right hand wrapped in white gauze.

“Oh, then let’s continue walking.”

Beneath the gray cloak, some amusement flickered in Lu Qingxue’s eyes.

…

…

Deep in Oasis City, inside the spaceship under the hills.

Covered in wood fibers… Mu Rensheng intensely injected some plant extraction liquid into his body.

Then, a shallow green and deep yellow light flashed across the wrinkled skin.

Finally, the facial skin slowly regained a youthful glow.

Not far behind him, a young girl pinned against the wall by wooden vines glared at the evil figure with hatred in her eyes.

At this moment, her brown hair was no longer smooth, but scattered over her shoulders, and her pointed ears were gently trembling.

She was forcibly suppressing the pain from her body.

This demon that captured her would whip her with vines whenever his mood soured.

This treatment was akin to abusing pigs and dogs.

“The function of nature is for humans to exploit it and thereby extend their own lives. You see, with enough plant-extracted medicine, I embody plant-like characteristics, which means possessing long-lasting life…”

“In a sense, I am the embodiment of nature’s will. Don’t I look more tangible than the elusive Wood God?”

Mu Rensheng turned, appearing as a man in his early thirties.

If not for the swirling wood fibers and the malicious shadow in his eyes, one might think he was a distinguished noble gentleman.

“Vile soul!”

“Disgusting human skin.”

The girl’s gaze was filled with hatred and defiance.
