Chapter 102 An Lan's Clean and Decisive Actions: Has Another Shop Been Opened?

Sun Lili and the other four girls were scared out of their wits, screaming and fleeing in all directions.

However, An Lan's footsteps did not pause in the slightest.

She walked straight toward Sun Lili, who was already paralyzed on the ground in fear.

The fear of death instantly overwhelmed everything else, and a crazed, vicious glint erupted in Sun Lili's eyes.

"You want me dead? Then you'll have to be buried with me!"

She roared, suddenly pulling a half-meter-long steel pipe from her player backpack, and with all her might, smashed it down fiercely toward An Lan's head!

"Watch out!" Yao Qingya and Liu Qiaofei cried out in alarm simultaneously.

The expressions of Jiang Yuwan and Su Meier also changed instantly.

However, An Lan didn't even blink.

"Bang!" With a dull thud, the steel pipe slammed solidly into An Lan's shoulder.

An Lan's figure only swayed slightly; she had taken the blow head-on with her shoulder!

Seeing that An Lan didn't dodge or evade but instead took her attack head-on, Sun Lili's eyes widened in horror, and she didn't have time to make another reaction.

The next instant, a cold gleam rapidly expanded within her pupils.

"Puchi!"

The dagger in An Lan's hand was as fast as lightning, precisely and viciously stabbing into Sun Lili's neck, and then yanked out violently!

Blood sprayed out like a fountain.

The madness and horror on Sun Lili's face froze.

She clutched her neck, making "he-he" sounds.

Her body slumped down softly, twitching in a pool of blood, and soon, there was no more sound.

An Lan didn't even glance at the corpse on the ground. She shook the blood off her dagger, strode forward with her long legs, and chased after the four girls who had already run some distance away.

Her speed was extremely fast, her movements were clean and decisive, without a single bit of unnecessary flair.

In the corridor, only the desperate screams and brief pleas for mercy from the four girls remained, which were then replaced by the dull thuds of a sharp weapon entering flesh.

Every strike was fatal!

Less than half a minute later.

Everything returned to silence.

An Lan walked back, carrying the still-dripping dagger, her face expressionless as if she had just done something trivial.

She walked over to Zou Min's corpse, crouched down, and carefully wiped the blood off the dagger on the other person's clothes.

The entire corridor was deathly silent.

Everyone queuing to trade looked at her with eyes as if looking at a monster, not daring to even breathe loudly.

Where on earth did Su Ze find this woman? How could she be so ruthless?

She truly inherited Su Ze's mantle!

Jiang Yuwan, Yao Qingya, Su Meier, and Liu Qiaofei, the four women, also looked at her with complicated expressions.

"Are… are you okay? Your shoulder?" Yao Qingya was the first to snap out of it. She walked up quickly, looking at the spot where An Lan had been hit by the steel pipe.

An Lan shook her head, stood up, and returned the wiped-clean dagger to her waist.

"Actually… there was no need to go this far." Jiang Yuwan walked over, her cool, cold face carrying a hint of gravity.

"When Su Ze returns, he has plenty of ways to deal with them. The monk can run, but the temple can't."

Although she also wished these people were dead, she felt it wasn't necessary to get injured over it.

"Understood." An Lan nodded, her tone flat, revealing no emotion.

"Sister An Lan… you're so amazing." Liu Qiaofei walked up timidly, but her large eyes shone with admiration.

She had finally seen the fate of the traitors with her own eyes.

The resentment and grievance that had been stuck in her chest seemed to have completely vanished at this moment, along with the deaths of those people.

"Wow, little sister, your skills are so cool." Su Meier also crowded over, her seductive eyes sweeping over An Lan, and she enthusiastically took her hand.

"Come, come, come, let's go inside. Let sister check the wound; don't let it leave a scar."

The several women crowded around An Lan and returned to the Dormitory.

The corpses of Sun Lili and the others still lay in the pool of blood in the corridor, and no one dared to move them.

Inside the Dormitory, Su Meier and Yao Qingya busily helped An Lan take off her coat to check the injury on her shoulder.

Just then, the Dormitory door was pushed open.

Su Ze returned, with his arm around Qiao Yunge.

The women in the room paused and all looked over simultaneously.

An Lan was only wearing a sports tank top, with a large expanse of skin exposed, but her expression was calm, with no hint of embarrassment.

Anyway, everyone in the room except Su Ze was a woman, and Su Ze was her man, so there was nothing to be shy about.

Su Ze's gaze swept around the room, finally landing on the red mark on An Lan's shoulder, then looked at the few specks of blood on her, and his brows furrowed.

"What happened?"

Jiang Yuwan explained what had just happened in a few words. After listening, Su Ze nodded, his face expressionless.

"Well killed."

He walked up to An Lan, reached out to touch the red mark on her shoulder, and feeling that the skin there was only slightly warm and there was no serious issue, he continued.

"However, don't take such risks next time. In case the other party has some means to take you down with them, taking any one of you with them, it wouldn't be worth it."

That's what he said.

If they died, and the Bond was lost along with them, where would he go to cry?

He would rather they always remain just vases, after all, the Bond effect was simply too important.

However, hearing Su Ze's concern, Jiang Yuwan snorted inwardly, cursing that the dog man actually knew how to care for people.

Yao Qingya, Liu Qiaofei, and the newcomer Qiao Yunge felt a warmth in their hearts, feeling that they hadn't followed the wrong person.

Su Meier's eyes even swirled with emotion, wishing she could immediately stick to him.

Only An Lan nodded earnestly: "Mm."

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore." Su Ze clapped his hands and took out a stone emitting an earthy yellow glow from his backpack.

It was exactly the dormitory expansion cornerstone.

He directly chose to use it.

"Ding! Use of dormitory expansion cornerstone successful, your Dormitory area has been permanently expanded by 25 square meters!"

Accompanied by a slight vibration, the entire space of the Dormitory extended outward at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the originally crowded room instantly became much more spacious.

"Wow! So big!" Liu Qiaofei exclaimed in surprise.

Su Ze nodded with satisfaction; now it was finally not so cramped.

He glanced at the thorn vine door that had already been upgraded by Jiang Yuwan using blueprints.

And the two turrets on both sides of the door.

He decided not to rush to use An Lan's Engineering Bond for now.

Anyway, as long as it was upgraded before the end of this game round, there was no need to rush.

"Have the players go buy from Zhuang Qianhao or Wang Meng, and then, after reporting, I have something to say." He looked at Jiang Yuwan.

After going out to disperse the players, Jiang Yuwan returned to report: "Today, after deducting all costs, the net profit is around eighty thousand copper coins."

After she reported everything.

"Additionally, Liu Yuanfang and the others have already moved to Dormitory 432. She, Lin Shiyu, and Li Jiaxin are each responsible for moving into our three rooms that are being used as warehouses to help us guard the supplies."

"Very good, remember to check their player backpacks every day; don't let them take anything."

They had no opportunity to come into contact with copper coins and could not conduct trades, so it was only necessary to restrict their movements and check them more often.

"Also, I saw that there is another person on the trade channel. I asked Wang Meng and Zhuang Qianhao, and none of their people have opened a shop."

"But this person is very low-key, not selling publicly, I don't know who it is."

"I'm a little worried, will this person cause any trouble…"
