Chapter 1 Jessica

"You... you," Jessica realized for the first time that she was at a loss for words. She had been frightened a lot today, and couldn't help but swallow when she saw the steaming food. She sat down across from Fang Senyan:

"What's so good about this stuff? If you promise me one thing, then I'll forget about you hurting me, and I'll even take you to the InterContinental Hotel for Australian lobster!"

Fang Senyan said coldly:

"I won't promise."

"You!" Jessica choked again. This was the first time in her life that she had encountered someone she couldn't handle. "You're refusing me without even asking what it is?"

Fang Senyan said disdainfully:

"How long have we known each other? What could you possibly want from me? Isn't it just to drive your car?"

"I'll give you money, okay? Name your price!" Jessica began to feel helpless.

Fang Senyan sneered:

"Do you think I look like someone who needs money?"

Jessica immediately remembered this guy's insane behavior of throwing out two hundred thousand dollars for a glass of Scharzhofberger Riesling, and was immediately speechless. Just then, the waiter brought over a plate of sweet and sour pork. Thinking Jessica was Fang Senyan's companion, he gave her a set of chopsticks. The sweet and sour pork looked very good, and Jessica, who was already hungry, couldn't help but grab a piece. Her eyes widened: the sweet and sour taste, the crispy fried batter, and the flavorful ribs inside were covered in a thick, sweet and sour sauce. One bite made her want to shovel a big mouthful of white rice.

Once she started, she couldn't stop. After eating a few pieces of sweet and sour pork, Jessica turned her attention to the plum and garlic bamboo shrimp next to her. The shrimp were of high quality, firm and meaty, with a crisp and fragrant texture. They were stir-fried with plum, garlic, and scallions, and the shrimp juice mixed with the plum created a perfect combination of sweet, sour, and fresh shrimp flavor.

Fang Senyan was, after all, only a twenty-year-old young man. He had lived and died in the Nightmare Space, full of pressure. After coming out, he had no way to vent. He realized that Jessica, a girl of the same age, wasn't bad by nature, but just spoiled, so he didn't reject her. He pointed to the baby bok choy and pork offal soup and said:

"Drink."

To be honest, the soup didn't look very good. Normally, Jessica wouldn't even glance at it. But as the saying goes, "He who eats of a man's bread sings his song." Forced by Fang Senyan's sharp gaze, she couldn't refuse. She hesitantly scooped up a little and took half a mouthful. Her eyes widened again. The baby bok choy in the soup was sweet, crisp, and tender. Although it looked like a thick soup, it was actually clear and sweet. The best part was the small amount of white pepper, which enhanced the flavor without overpowering the aroma of the pork offal. It was really delicious.

She took a spoonful and couldn't help but want to drink more, but Fang Senyan stopped her. He turned to the boss and said:

"Give her a spinach and pork liver soup."

Jessica immediately yelled:

"No! I want to drink this. I never eat pork liver!"

Fang Senyan ignored her protest and said indifferently:

"You were injured just now. Spinach and pork liver soup can replenish blood."

Jessica, who had been unwilling to continue snatching the soup, seemed to be struck by lightning when she heard this sentence. Then she sat quietly on the stool. When the steaming spinach and pork liver soup came up, she picked up her bowl and slowly ate it, tears streaming down her still-swollen cheeks, dripping into the soup.

Sometimes, an inadvertent word or an inadvertent thing can break through a girl's defenses. A rebellious girl like Jessica actually has a deep-seated emptiness and a desire for warmth and love, but the people around her either ignore this or their concern is full of degenerate stench. But for her, Fang Senyan, a seemingly cold and ruthless passerby, showed a seemingly unintentional act of concern. This was selfless care that directly struck her heart.

At this time, Fang Senyan was full and satisfied. After paying the bill, he stood up to leave. Jessica looked up in surprise and said:

"Where are you going?"

Fang Senyan smiled:

"Of course, I'm going home to sleep. By the way, your friends will be here soon. Go home early and go to the hospital tomorrow to get a proper splint for your left hand."

With that, Fang Senyan walked straight out, leaving the girl staring at his back, looking somewhat reluctant.

…

Next, Fang Senyan also carefully hid his tracks, but after discovering that the incident he had caused in the bar had not been exposed, he continued to stay in Hong Kong. In fact, he was a little too careful. This kind of fighting was extremely common. The Hong Kong police couldn't even solve all the murder cases, so why would they pay attention if no one reported it?

So Fang Senyan continued to use his previous connections to start searching for the whereabouts of Uncle Da and the others, and was quite worried, after all, the chances of a ship capsizing when sailing out to sea in a typhoon were extremely high. Another few days passed, and Fang Senyan waited until a week later, timing it perfectly.

He casually found a building, hurriedly went downstairs, and re-entered the Nightmare Space.

The first thing Fang Senyan paid attention to was the attributes of the Black Obsidian Fossil Anchor after the fusion! He almost jogged to the military zone on the west side of the space hall. The other contractors probably were used to seeing this, and some even cursed maliciously in their hearts, wishing him failure. Fang Senyan didn't care so much. He rushed into an empty service room and asked to retrieve the equipment that had been fused before. Soon, a brand-new accessory appeared in front of him.

The Ogre's Fighting Spirit

Equipment Rarity: Silver Story Grade

Equipment: Strength, Agility, Constitution +2

Equipment: Charisma -5 (Undoubtedly, ogres are inherently ugly and ferocious creatures, and injecting its soul will make you even less likable)

Equipment Passive Ability: Pain Accumulation. Every time you take damage, you will gain the effect of temporarily increasing your Constitution by 5 points, lasting for 300 seconds. When this effect is stacked to 2 layers (maximum), the ogre's soul will appear, roaring and bestowing its life upon you. You will simultaneously gain an additional 50 points of health and a 15% increase in melee attack power.

Equipment Passive Ability: Ogre Soul. Your attack interval is increased by 5%, but your chance of hitting the enemy is increased by 10%, and you may cause knockback to the enemy.

Equipment Requirements: Constitution attribute must reach 10 points or more.

Equipment Position: Accessory

Material: Black Obsidian

Weight: 104 grams.

Description: Although ogres tend to attack rather than defend, this accessory with a weapon spirit is still very powerful.

Evaluation: Scarface Henry's imprint has been completely erased from this. While trembling in fear, your enemies may, after surviving, try to give it a contemptuous nickname of "Ogre Balls."

Equipment Combat Power Score: 55

Compared to the previous Black Obsidian Fossil Anchor, the negative attributes of this equipment have become two: Charisma -5 and attack interval increased by 5%. But the improvement is also obvious: the three important melee values of Strength, Agility, and Constitution each increased by 2 are already very worthwhile. What's more, there is the effect of Pain Accumulation, which grants an additional 50 health points and an additional 15% attack power when full. Calculated in this way, Fang Senyan's peak health data reached 530 points! And a terrifying 19 points of defensive armor!

Obviously, Fang Senyan was also quite satisfied with this fusion, so he unhesitatingly took out that hard-won treasure: Type IV Metal Dissolution Modulator, and then used it on the Ogre's Fighting Spirit, which had now been upgraded to Silver Story equipment. After a continuous flash of light, Fang Senyan received a prompt:

"You can immediately obtain this equipment, but the effect of the Type IV Metal Dissolution Modulator cannot be fully utilized, so you can only obtain a normal effect enhancement."

"You can also choose to store this equipment in a culture dish and postpone the extraction of this equipment, but the Type IV Metal Dissolution Modulator can be fully utilized, and you can obtain the best effect enhancement."

"Warning: Based on the instability of the Type IV Metal Dissolution Modulator, the time required to obtain the best effect enhancement may be very long."

Fang Senyan didn't hesitate when he saw this prompt. He wasn't someone who deliberately pursued perfection. If he could get the best effect enhancement, that would be great, but if not, it didn't matter. In short, he would retrieve the Ogre's Fighting Spirit before entering the world. An ordinary enhancement was fine. If he risked his life for the best effect, that would be incredibly foolish!

After finishing things here, Fang Senyan returned to his private space. He was shocked as soon as he entered. He saw that the Goblin Gold Mine was actually asleep on the ground. Below his yellowish mouse whiskers, a sparkling saliva was dripping down. He seemed to be sleeping very sweetly, making a slight snoring sound. And his room had simply become a messy garbage dump. The surrounding walls were covered in black spots, and a simple stove was set up next to it with red bricks. An old aluminum kettle on top of it was bubbling with steam. And next to the corner, there were some miscellaneous items such as beer bottles, empty boxes of鲜橙多 (fresh orange juice), large Coke bottles, and cardboard. God knows where these things came from.

Fang Senyan's eyes darkened. He pressed his temples and said with a headache:

"God, how did my place turn into a waste recycling station in the blink of an eye?"

The Goblin Gold Mine opened his eyes, rubbed his eye boogers, and looked over here, lazily saying:

"Master, I will be very sad if you move these treasures that I have painstakingly collected."

Fang Senyan was now 精虫上脑 (seething with anger). Oh, no, 怒火冲天 (consumed with rage). He kicked the pile of junk and roared:

"Get it out of here! Now!"
