Chapter 167 - 167 A Sudden Encounter
167 A Sudden Encounter
At least in the short term, it was basically impossible for the others to catch up to his level.
Su Ming’s advantage, as well as the various resources he had when he dominated the ranking board…
That basically meant that the advantage Su Ming had over normal players was so great that it was somewhat exaggerated.
Under such circumstances, how could the other players catch up to Su Ming?
That was basically impossible.
When he thought of this, Su Ming did not feel too happy or excited. Instead, he felt a little melancholic.
If this was just a game, he could feel happy and excited because of his lead.
However, the problem was that this game wasn’t just a game.
It was a hope that would save all mankind in the future.
That was why the glory of Su Ming dominating the rankings was not the only thing that fell on him.
At the same time, a heavy pressure also fell on Su Ming’s body.
The future attacks of the extraterrestrial would definitely cause all mankind to unite and fight against them together.
Under such circumstances, he, who had the highest achievements in the game, would have to bear the most responsibilities.
When he thought of this, Su Ming could not help but let out a long breath. There was a slight change in his gaze.
In truth, everything that Su Ming had experienced during this period of time was still within his expectations.
If he wanted to continue to strengthen his advantage in this aspect, he would have to realize everything he had obtained in his previous life, as well as some things he had envisioned that he had not been able to realize.
Only by developing his kingdom as soon as possible would he have enough resources to develop some super high-tech technology that would be enough to fight against the extraterrestrials in the future.
As he thought about it, Su Ming’s expression became even more solemn.
For the entire afternoon after that, Su Ming kept thinking about these things while he continued to level up.
Then, when it was almost time for lunch, Su Ming chose to log off.
Once he found Su Xiaoshan, Su Ming asked her to call Chen Yixue.
When she heard that, Su Xiaoshan immediately looked at Su Ming with an unhappy expression.
“Brother, it’s not that I want to criticize you, but you and Little Yixue are already so close. Can’t you exchange contact information? You even had to contact him through me, the middleman.”
When Su Ming heard this, he thought about it and agreed with her, so he said, “Sure, then send me her contact information.”
Su Xiaoshan shook her head and said, “That won’t do. If you want it, you should go and ask yourself.”
Su Ming cast her a glance and a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes, but he did not bother to ask Su Xiaoshan why.
Su Xiaoshan had done too many strange things in a day. If Su Ming had to ask her why she did all of them, he would probably die.
After that, the two of them made an appointment to meet Chen Yixue.
The location of the meeting was a seafood buffet.
To the current Su Ming, this was the best place he could afford.
However, thinking about it, when the auction system went online tomorrow, all these would be improved.
When Su Ming and Su Xiaoshan arrived at the commercial plaza and found Chen Yixue, the three of them quickly entered the seafood restaurant.
Su Ming had spent nearly five hundred stones to get the three spots for the three of them.
After Su Xiaoshan heard the news, she gritted her teeth and her expression became determined.
“This time, I’m definitely going to earn back my investment!”
When Su Ming heard that, he shook his head in slight resignation.
Once he cast her a glance, Su Ming said, “If you can earn back your money by eating a buffet, then I’ll cover all your meals for the next month.”
It was not the first time that the su family had gone out to eat buffets. Every time Su Xiaoshan set off, she would be full of confidence and arrogance, as if she would definitely be able to eat her money back.
However, in the end, she would always collapse on the chair, as if she had eaten too much and would die if she continued eating.
In fact, the amount she ate was only about the same as a small bowl of noodles in Sha County snacks.
When Su Xiaoshan heard Su Ming’s words, she knew that he was dissing her, and she immediately let out a dissatisfied harrumph.
“You don’t believe me? You don’t trust your own sister?”
“i’ll show you what a real glutton is today!”
Chen Yixue, who was watching the two of them play, had a slightly funny expression on her face, but she did not say anything.
After that, the three of them quickly began to eat heartily.
As expected, Su Xiaoshan could no longer eat after 15 minutes and collapsed on the sofa.
When Su Ming saw this, a hint of ‘I knew it’ appeared in his eyes.
However, once he shifted his gaze, a look of surprise appeared on Su Ming’s face.
At this moment, there were already many empty plates in front of Chen Yixue. She was still eating non-stop, and the expression on her face was unusually calm.
This quiet and gluttonous appearance did indeed shock Su Ming a little.
According to Chen Yixue’s eating method, she might really be able to eat her money back in this buffet.
After that, the three of them spent another half an hour in the buffet restaurant.
After finishing the last piece of meat, Chen Yixue wiped her mouth with a piece of tissue and patted her chest to digest it.
She then lifted her head and looked at Su Ming. “I’m full.”
Su Ming looked at the mountain of plates in front of her and his lips twitched. He then nodded.
“I do.”
After that, the three of them quickly left the restaurant, and Su Xiaoshan suggested that they watch a movie to digest their food.
Just as Su Ming was about to agree, he saw a person walking toward him.
Su Ming was stunned, and so was the man.
The person who came was Shen Fang, the person Su Ming had seen in Shen Yi’s house.
Once Shen Fang came back to his senses, he let out a light chuckle before he walked slowly to stand before Su Ming.
“Little Su, we meet again.”
When Su Ming heard the way he addressed him, his expression became slightly awkward, but he quickly nodded and replied, “Brother Shen.”
Even though Shen Yi’s family did not seem to like Shen Fang very much, he was still Shen Yi’s older brother, and he was also a few years older than Su Ming.
That was why, no matter what, Su Ming should still be polite to him.
After they greeted each other, Su Ming had originally planned to bring Chen Yixue and Su Xiaoshan to the movies.
However, just as he took a step, Shen Fang’s voice sounded again.
