Chapter 689 - 638 Lanci and Talia Have Both Arrived
"But think about it, my mental attribute has very high growth potential, by the time I reach the eighth order, I’ll be giving you attributes instead, which is like borrowing some spirit from you now, and I’ll pay it back with interest in the future."
Lanci started analyzing for her.
Tata’s attributes were balanced, with high growth potential in every aspect.
In short, a super soldier.
As for magic, Tata only excelled in Mental Interference and Curse Reflective Damage, which meant she had the numbers but simple mechanics that could easily be completely countered.
The opposite of the Great Love Poet, who had strong mechanisms but no numbers.
And Lanci had both, making him one of the Three-body people.
"So, do you want to wear this bracelet?"
Talia sized him up and asked.
Magic Card Type Equipment Jewelry was good because it could be hidden in the Soul Space most of the time and didn’t need to be worn constantly, preventing everyone from noticing it.
"Apart from whether I want to or not, you would never agree to it in the first place, this card has a purely negative effect on you."
Lanci shook his head and spread his hands, walking towards the exit of the prize center.
"..."
Cat Boss felt that these two never mentioned whether they themselves wanted to wear it or not.
Instead, they kept probing each other’s intentions.
"You just need to tell me if this bracelet is of any use to you."
Talia’s voice turned a touch colder.
Even though she felt that Lanci was thinking about something impolite again just now, she didn’t care too much about that anymore; as long as he didn’t say it in front of her, she couldn’t be bothered to arrest Lanci.
"Of course it’s useful, it can increase mental attributes by about ten to twenty percent."
Lanci felt Talia’s authority and answered her honestly.
"I’m lending you my attribute to be returned to me later because I know you have important responsibilities; otherwise, I would never agree to wear matching jewelry with you."
Talia murmured, putting away the bracelet.
This left Lanci slightly stunned.
He hadn’t expected Talia to actually be willing to make this kind of deal.
Soon, he sported a sly smile again.
"Ho ho ho, once my mental attribute is higher than yours, I’ll unbind it."
Lanci said to Talia with a narrow-eyed smile.
"Don’t you dare unbind it! Bind it to death, you owe me interest!"
Talia glared at him, pointing at his forehead.
And like that, they walked on, bickering.
The massive stone arch of the Gold Bee Amusement Park was inlaid with countless shimmering gems, which under the night sky twinkled like mystical fairy lamps, leading visitors forward.
The festival fireworks continued to burst above their heads from time to time.
The pair bought candied apples drizzled with syrup as a treat.
Until suddenly, a loud noise split the tranquil night sky, followed by a series of incessant explosions that seemed to light up half the sky with colorful flames, then cascading down like a meteor shower, blending into the evening’s canvas, until darkness fell once more.
Lanci, as if remembering something, suddenly stopped in his tracks, palms up, and held out a fist to Talia.
"Right, this is for you,"
he said.
Talia looked at his slowly opening hand with bewilderment, but it was empty inside.
She moved a little closer and, imitating the voice of the Great Love Poet, whispered in Lanci’s ear:
"Thank you, Brother Lanci," she said with a voice as soft and sweet as honey.
"..."
Lanci was petrified on the spot, unable to speak, his expression completely frozen.
Soon after, he felt a chill and hugged himself, goosebumps rising all over his body.
"Ah ah ah, just kill me!"
His brain felt like it was trembling.
Even Cat Boss felt the ride had become unstable in an instant and jumped to the ground.
"Meow."
Cat Boss was seeing Lanci so utterly thrown off for the first time.
It was as if he was genuinely disgusted by Talia, feeling as though there were bugs crawling all over him.
Disgust might not be the right word – it was difficult to put into words the horror and discomfort he felt inside at that moment.
"You try to provoke me again and see," Talia threatened.
Talia, recalling what she had just said and feeling a bit embarrassed herself, found some acceptance in the fact that it had clearly hurt Lanci.
"Ah ah ah!"
Lanci, holding his head, felt like the voice of Tata still echoed in his ears and couldn’t shake it off, repeating over and over like a curse in his mind.
Who knows how long it took, but eventually, they both seemed to have tired of their antics, and keeping a certain distance from one another, they walked down the avenue leading to the exit of the Gold Bee Amusement Park.
"Speaking of which, you two, are you just going to head back like this?" Cat Boss asked, glancing at the projection map of the amusement park.
"Otherwise?" The two responded to it with a question.
"Since you’re here already, why not have fun at the Gold Bee Amusement Park? Otherwise, your admission tickets are a bit of a waste."
Little Black Cat looked meaningfully in the direction of the Love Obstacle Corridor College’s event stage,
"Besides, don’t you two actually want to play together? It’s rare to see you both so happy, meow."
"Who would want that!" They both refuted Cat Boss with glaring eyes.
"Not interested, huh—" Little Black Cat did not retreat at all but instead elongated the word, moving closer to them, its shadow stretching long on the ground like a dark giant tiger.
"Ta Ta, I won’t be making you snacks tonight," Cat Boss told Tata, then turned to Lanci,
"And as for you, Lanci, there’s nothing left to eat at your place, and tonight you only hurriedly ate a couple of bites of sandwich before starting to work. Ta Ta, could you please take Lanci to get some food?"
"Uh," Talia hesitated.
"Alright, that’s settled, I’m off, meow!" Cat Boss trotted away cheerfully, turning and leaving.
The two of them stood on the road, exceptionally quiet, as if neither knew what to say to the other.
Not until Cat Boss had completely vanished from sight.
It made them even more keenly aware that they were left alone with each other.
It would be awkward not to talk now.
"With these Golden Bee Coins, we should have enough to spend," Lanci took out the points card received from the event manager, muttering to himself.
From one event alone, they had earned a total of one hundred ninety-six Golden Bee Coins.
"If it’s not enough, you’ll have to win games with me until I’m full," said Talia, without looking at him.
"Then let’s go," breathed Lanci, his face breaking into a relaxed smile.
It was like ripples spreading in a quiet night sky, fireworks blooming once more.
The heavens unfolded into a vast canvas, the starlight like countless dazzling gems embedded in the profound night sky.
In such a midsummer night, they walked together on the road, all troubles seemingly dispersed by the cool night breeze.
