32 Have you ever played League of Legends? What's your Rank?

Being carried by Si A, he and Fang Ran swiftly found out the city's name from a sign at a bus stop.

"Hmm… Jicheng?" Si A nodded to himself.

"What's the use of knowing what city this is?" Fang Ran asked on the basis of 'ask if you don't understand something'.

"It's useful. Information such as geography and weather can be gathered based on the city," Si Ai casually explained. He then ambled leisurely towards a car parked by the side of the road.

With a flame burning in his hand, he directly melted the window by the driver's seat. Reaching his hand to open the door lock from the inside, he nonchalantly sat in the driver's seat.

Snap!

He leaned his left hand against the car window, snapped his ablazed fingers and smilingly said to Fang Ran,

"Let's go! Get in the car!"

"F*ck, dude, your way of doing things is way too cool!"

Lackey Fang Ran was instantly won over by Si A's suave actions, and he quickly sat in the front passenger seat.

"Young friend, do you even know the mission and reward for this scenario?" Skillfully turning the steering wheel, Si A lit a cigarette in his mouth with the flame from his fingertips.

"Uh, not very sure,"

Fang Ran covered his face in shame and replied. He was a f*cking pervert who had almost gotten caught in the women's locker room and was chased by the black figures for 200 meters. How would he know anything about this scenario that he was randomly dragged in?

"Hah, I don't know whether to say that you're lucky or unlucky."

Si A laughed and drove the car he had stolen straight for the highway. The car flew through the night, heading towards the bustling city center.

"This scenario is a special type of scenario. The mission is not to kill those guys, but to have us participants fight and kill each other."

Hearing this, Fang Ran's entire body shuddered. Then, he trembled as he looked at Si A.

"Big Brother A, you… you… you you you!!!"

Si A was speechless as he looked at Fang Ran. 'Young friend, you have simple-mindedly boarded my car and believed my words until now, isn't it too late for you to worry that I will kill you later? Besides, you're just an E-grade worm who got mixed into this scenario, can you not think so highly of yourself?

Sighing, he freed a hand and patted Fang Ran's shoulder.

"Young friend, just focus on masturbating, don't think about unnecessary matters. After all, you're still a noob."

'Well I'm sorry for being such a noob!!!'

Fang Ran covered his face and thundered in his mind!

"Where were we? Oh right, this scenario is special and so is the mission. As for the reward, naturally, it's something extraordinary," Si A went back to the topic that they had digressed from.

"Reward?! What reward?"

Fang Ran instantly grew curious. 'A special reward. Is it like the special reward from yesterday that can enhance powers?'

"It's a piece of Night Equipment."

"Dude, I am sensing something R-rated in your statement," Fang Ran said in all seriousness.

"Get lost!"

Si A responded exasperatedly. Then, he sighed to himself. 'That is truly something that could only come from someone who can openly and calmly admit that he's a die-hard otaku.'

"So what exactly is the reward?" Fang Ran asked in ignorance.

"Have you played League of Legends before?" Si A suddenly threw out a completely unrelated question.

Scratching his head, Fang Ran mumbled, "Played before… Uh… Somewhat played before."

Si A glanced at him as he said, "Hearing your tone, I shan't ask what rank you are."

Fang Ran immediately covered his face and replied, "Dude, weren't we talking about Night Equipment?"

"Oh, Night Equipment. In simple terms, it's an item!"

"What???!!!"

Fang Ran's jaw dropped to the ground and a stunned expression appeared on his face.

"You are only an E-grade, so it seems a bit early for you to know about it. But it's okay. Open the hidden button in the lower right corner of your character interface," Si A said.

"Uh."

Fang Ran hesitated for a moment, before secretly opening his pink Sakura interface and poked on everywhere he could press. He did not know which button worked, but a brand new interface opened up.

There were six gray grids on it. Only in the first grid was the Silver Split Dragontooth shown.

'Wait a minute!'

'Why do these six grids seem so familiar to me?'

Fang Ran pursed his lips together tightly without saying a word, trying his best to restrain himself from thinking in a certain familiar direction.

"You see it, right? That is your personal Night Equipment inventory, which is your item inventory!"

However, as Si A continued explaining next to him, it effortlessly shattered Fang Ran's determination.

'F*ck!'

'Why is it so similar to the God Room? The amount of item slots given to players are also six!

'Also, Night Equipment! Is there any point in giving it such a classy name?!'

'Isn't it still just an item inventory?!'

Fang Ran covered his face without saying anything. He felt like his world views had been completely shattered.

From the character stats at the very beginning, to when the release from the plane, to this item inventory setting… System, do you only f*cking know how to plagiarize from popular games?!'

"However, don't think it's that simple, these items… The quantity of Night Equipment is extremely scant!"

Si A explained with a faint smile when he saw Fang Ran looking like he could not bear to look at his own interface.

"Not even mentioning the Six Gods Outfit, the average Night Battle participant doesn't even have a single piece of Night Equipment."

"That rare?!"

Fang Ran was astonished and swallowed his saliva. What the f*ck, just changing its name to something to pretentious caused its value seriously shot up like that? Putting everything else aside, just take a look at the quantity!'

"The most important thing is, the Night Equipment awarded by the system's scenario will forever be better than all your night… um those you get from hunting monsters, not to mention that hunting a hundred monsters may not necessarily earn you a Night Equipment."

"It's that awesome?!" Fang Ran was completely stunned. 'Even killing a hundred monsters may not even necessarily burst… Uh, ahem get you one piece?'

"Yes!" This time, Si A had a grave and solemn expression on his face. Narrowing his eyes, he stared at the bustling night outside and replied with Fang Ran's words, "It's that awesome."

Fang Ran instantly felt his mouth and tongue turning dry. He then asked feebly, "Then Big Brother A, right now do you have…"

Smiling, Si A answered him with an action.

Pfft!

Like flames created through friction!

The flames were stirring restlessly!

The temperature was rising!

Red-hot sparks skipped in the air, and an intense and brilliant flame was ignited in Si Ai's right hand!

Crimson metal twisted in the air, and the human's hand completely turned into a giant claw like a Balrog's. His entire right hand was wrapped in a burning metal armor!

A gorgeous and dangerous feeling rose from the flames!

Crash!

Fang Ran simply felt a heat wave come crashing down! The temperature inside the car instantly rose by at least ten degrees! The interior of the car turned hot and bright due to the flame!

"This is…"

However, all of a sudden, all the flames vanished. The giant claw-like fiery armguard turned into flames and disappeared from Si A's shoulder, only leaving behind a ring in his right hand.

"Hephaestus's Briar Rose Ring."

Si A said, "This is the Night Equipment I earned from a special battle scenario. As of now, I can only turn it into an armguard to attack. By the way, for Night Equipment obtained from a scenario, the system will assign the most suitable Night Equipment for you according to your characteristics."

"Oh."

Fang Ran's brows knitted together as he listened intently, nodding his head from time to time, staring solemnly at the ring in Si A's hand. There was no greed or envy, because…

He did not understand Si A's pure English pronunciation just now.

'F*ck! It seems like it's very awesome, but dude, can we speak in Chinese?'

Sigh, he was still a scum who has yet to pass his CET4 after all, so not much should be asked of him. He could only make out that so and so had some sort of rose ring. There were four words in total, half of which this guy did not understand.

In actuality, Si A's Night Equipment originated from a well-known legend. Hephaestus was the god of fire in Greek mythology and the Night Equipment was simply Hephaestus' Briar Rose Ring.

Legend had it that after Hephaestus' wife, Aphrodite, had cheated with… ahem… dated the God of War, Hephaestus and his wife broke up. Later on, Hephaestus wanted to reconcile with her, so he forged this ring. Roses were something that Aphrodite, the Goddess of Beauty, had brought to the world when she was born, and the thorns symbolize loyalty and faithfulness.

In the end, his wife did not give a damn about him and did not accept it at all.

"By the way, Big Brother A, I have been meaning to ask how do you increase in rank!" Fang Ran racked his brains but still did not understand what Si A had said in English just now, so he immediately changed the subject and asked about something else that he had been wanting to find out.

"Oh, this." Si A had an expression that said 'Every novice is like this', as he smiled mysteriously and said,

"When the system thinks that you can be promoted to a higher rank, you will be promoted."

"Uh, what does that mean?!" Fang Ran was utterly baffled.

"It means that for us as participants, we are only responsible for enhancing our abilities. Whenever your abilities are of adequate qualifications to be recognized by the system for a promotion, it will naturally promote you to a higher grade," Si A shrugged and said.

"It's like that huh," Fang Ran sighed. Looking out the window, he lamented, "Hah, there is still a long way to go!"

Si A was just about to comfort him, when he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be something in this guy's hood. The next moment, he fixed his eyes on it.

It was a box of women's underwear that had yet to be opened.

Si A was speechless.

Then, he turned his head away without saying a word and continued driving his car, his mind in complete turmoil.

'No way, I totally can't tell. This young friend is an old hand in this? He's different from someone like me who puts in all my effort in a romantic relationship? But this is just too…'

Just then, Fang Ran turned his head and looked strangely at Si A, who had a torn and conflicted expression on his face.

"Big Brother A, what's wrong with you?"

Si A looked at him with a complicated expression in his eyes, looking especially at the underwear in his hood behind him. After a long time, Si A said to him earnestly,

"Young friend, there are some things that you cannot take carelessly. If you stole it, it's a crime!"

"Pfft! Ahem ahem!!!"

Immediately, Fang Ran was taken aback and shrank back into the seat as he said with a quiver,

"Big Brother A, how did you know!!!"

'That's it! I'm screwed! My identity has been exposed! I'm going to be arrested and sentenced to life imprisonment!'

"Hah! Young friend, you must know, even if you steal this thing, you won't be able to give it away."

Si A said confoundingly, 'Can you approach the girl you like in this way? No. More often than not, it will only be counterproductive.'

"Big Brother Ai! I was wrong! I really know the error of my ways!"

Fang Ran wailed with a face filled with regret. 'That's right! How can I give it away! It is a lost national cultural relic!'

"Hah! Forget it. I'll just pretend that I did not see it this time, don't do this kind of thing anymore." Si A sighed, hoping that this young friend would be able to understand his intent and use normal means to woo girls.

"Yup yup! Even if you kill me, I won't dare to do it again!" Fang Ran heaved a sigh of relief. Big Brother A is really a good man, he actually let me off the hook.

Just like that, these two people who were talking about completely different matters, miraculously held a conversation with each other.
