Black Book

Chapter 87 Evenly matched opponents

Wang Hua rubbed his hands together, looking so excited that he was enjoying the fun that Feng Zhaobai on the side couldn't help but glare at him again.

"Junior Brother Zhu has just entered the Silver Level, so find him an opponent of equal strength!"

Zhu Haomiao: “…………”

High emotional intelligence: on par with each other!

Low emotional intelligence: noobs fighting each other!

Looking at the [Dragon Emblem] on Feng Zhaobai's chest that was shining with purple and gold light, Zhu Haomiao felt unintentionally insulted.

hateful!

I don't want an equal opponent!

I'll hit ten!

His clenched fists trembled slightly, and Zhu Haomiao got furious, then looked at Wang Hua with a serious expression.

"Then I'll trouble you, Senior Brother Wang."

"No trouble, no trouble, there's a little bastard who's so arrogant, I've disliked him for a long time!"

Wang Hua rubbed his hands excitedly, turned around and went to make arrangements behind the scenes, leaving Zhu Haomiao and Feng Zhaobai to observe the game.

In the ring, the sturdy young man who had suddenly burst into life was ultimately unable to defeat the beautiful girl. He was hit on the temple by a high whip kick from her. The violent force poured into his head like a volleyed football, instantly causing his eyeballs to bulge out of their sockets, and he fell straight down on the ring.

Bang!
The heavy body fell to the ground, and the yellow and white brain matter mixed with blood turned into a sticky liquid that slowly flowed out from the sturdy young man's seven orifices. His eyes, which were still open in death, were still looking straight ahead in pain.

"The winner is South Goryeo, Kim Hyeon-joo."

As the referee confirmed that his opponent had lost his life, the entire arena erupted in a shrill roar.

"The trash that rides on a horse!"

"Hahahaha, I knew it! I win!"

…………

The howling of ghosts and wolves in various languages ​​echoed around. Zhu Haomiao looked expressionlessly at the beautiful girl who was still trampling on the corpses to vent her anger, and frowned slightly.

Noticing his subtle emotions, Feng Zhaobai on the side raised the corner of his mouth in a half-smile.

"You're not used to death yet?"

Hearing this, Zhu Haomiao shook his head calmly.

"That's not the case. It's just that this is the first time I see a real-life Adventer die. I feel a little emotional."

"Haha, I understand. I felt the same as you did at first."

Patting the young man's shoulder, Feng Zhaobai looked into the void with nostalgic eyes and murmured softly.

"Illusionary Realm! Illusionary Realm! Everything is like a dream!"

"To us, the indigenous creatures in the fantasy realm are more like NPCs in the game. Many people can slaughter them without any psychological burden, but when facing the adventers in reality, many people will have empathy for their own kind."

“But this is actually a manifestation of the immaturity of [Dao Xin].”

"Are the indigenous creatures of the Fantasy Realm really just a string of 'codes', without their own emotions?"

"Then what about the invasive species on Earth for tens of millions of years?"

"All countries are avoiding this issue, because once they admit that people in the fantasy realm are also human beings, they will fall into a huge moral and ethical paradox."

"Is it illegal to kill someone in the fantasy realm? Do the laws of reality apply to it?"

"One question can shut down governments all over the world!"

"Besides, even if real laws are applied, no country's government can infiltrate violent agencies into the fantasy realm of the heavens and truly exercise law enforcement power."

"Not only that, [High Moral Disadvantage] will make this country pay huge extra costs in the development of the Fantasy Realm, and eventually be eliminated by countries with [Low Moral Advantage]!"

"This is a world of bad things. Our Chinese civilization is born with a huge disadvantage. The only thing we can do is..."

After a pause, Feng Zhaobai looked at Zhu Haomiao deeply and pointed at his heart.

"It means having a clear conscience." "Regardless of reality or fantasy, treat all creatures equally. The [Dao Heart] is clear, so there is naturally no confusion."

As he spoke, Feng Zhaobai patted Zhu Haomiao's shoulder vigorously.

"Respect life, know your true nature, kill with caution, but don't be afraid of killing!"

"The Buddha also has the angry eyes of a diamond. Our Chinese civilization has always been cautious about war, not afraid of it!"

"Understand?"

Listening to Feng Zhaobai's earnest words, Zhu Haomiao nodded solemnly, understanding that he was taking this opportunity to help him establish correct values ​​and avoid falling into the evil path.

"I understand. I've learned my lesson."

Seeing this, Feng Zhaobai breathed a sigh of relief, smiled with satisfaction, and felt an endless sense of accomplishment in his heart.

If I could guide an [Abyss] onto the right path, I would have done a great deed...

At this moment, Wang Hua hurried back and made an OK gesture to the two of them.

"It's done!"

After a while, the match information came over the radio: "The next match will be between the Japanese player Susano-no-Mikoto and the Chinese player Zhu Haomiao."

"Both parties please prepare."

The sudden news made all the audience look at each other in confusion.

"What's going on? This is different from what's on the battle list?"

"Don't worry about it, just go place your bets! It will be exciting to see players from these two countries together!"

"Yup!"

Thinking of the national hatred and family feuds between the two sides, the eyes of a group of gamblers suddenly lit up and they rushed to the betting point quickly.

On the other side, Zhu Haomiao was walking into the contestant channel accompanied by Wang Hua.

As he walked, Feng Zhaobai's words just now echoed in the boy's mind. He inexplicably remembered the gift words on the [Black Book] and muttered to himself subconsciously.

"Stick to your heart and do whatever you want..."

Wang Hua, who was standing by, heard the mumbling faintly and looked over curiously.

"What did you say?"

"No...nothing."

A subtle misunderstanding arose, thinking that the young man was afraid of fighting, Wang Hua patted Zhu Haomiao on the back and shouted encouragement.

"Brother Zhu, don't be nervous. That little bastard was recently promoted to Silver. You will be fine!"

"Uh...ok."

Suppressing the bloodthirsty desire in his heart, Zhu Haomiao nodded calmly, walked slowly towards the ring, and entered the waiting area.

At the same time, seeing Wang Hua excitedly returning to the viewing area, Feng Zhaobai felt a little uneasy for some reason.

Susanoo no Mikoto... I seem to have heard this name somewhere before?
Feng Zhaobai narrowed his eyes and looked at Wang Hua beside him: "Are you sure you have made the arrangements?"

Wang Hua smiled brightly and gave a thumbs up. His white teeth shone brightly under the light.

"Don't worry, a little bastard who has just been promoted to Silver is guaranteed to be a worthy opponent!"

Hearing this, Feng Zhaobai's uneasiness not only did not ease, but became even stronger. But then he shook his head as if in self-mockery.

Who can defeat an [Abyss] in the same realm?
It's just groundless worry!

..............................

"Both contestants please come on stage!"

Stepping onto the ring, Zhu Haomiao saw his opponent on the diagonal of the square ring.

He was a handsome and tall young man with muscular body, but his face was full of defiance and his eyes were full of contempt and aggression. The first impression people had of him was not love, but vigilance and fear.
