Liu Shi Man thought for a bit, then struck a few more parts on the man’s body.
This will leave the man in a state of comatose, unable to wake up for a few days.
Liu Shi Man stuffed the man into the shuttle’s trunk and closed it.
She sat down in the shuttle’s cockpit and began to start it up.
———let’s bring him for now, once I’ve gone far enough, I’ll cut off his hand and throw it away.
The corpse might be a bit harder to deal with, I can only dispose of it at a different place.
The shuttle started and very easily left the parking lot.
Following the predetermined path, the shuttle was flying at a certain direction.
Liu Shi Man turned the GPS screen on and found it was heading to Capital Hospital.
From his conversation just now, he really was intending to go to the hospital.
Should I change the path?
While she was thinking, a notification popped up on the shuttle.
[Emergency news, because of the Game of Eternal’s influence, the amount of shuttles heading into the city has increased exponentially]
[At the moment, flight highways heading in and out of the city is currently under heavy pressure. The 1st to 7th highway are completely blocked, the 8th to 10th highway are slowly moving, the 11th highway is currently free of vehicles, please rearrange your flight path accordingly]
“How annoying”
Liu Shi Man opened the GPS and changed the path to the open 11th highway.
After thinking a bit more, she looked around the map and changed the destination to a small mountainous town near the border.
The GPS system quickly rearranged her path.
Liu Shi Man sighed.
That’s her pre-arranged hiding location.
It had a perfectly constructed disaster bunker, hidden deep inside a mountain range. The resources prepared inside is enough to provide comfortable living conditions for 5 people for 7 years.
Both the food and daily necessities prepared in the bunker were chosen by herself, not only are they safe, they’re also the most comfortable for her to use.
That place was hidden among a stiff cliffside, equipped with a top-of-the-line optical cloaking device. Unless you specifically knew to search for it with specific tools, you definitely can’t find it.
When the Man Killer Fiends and sea creatures started to appear, she had already begun to arrange this place.
Now she happened to be able to steal a flying shuttle, and also managed to escape undetected.
What good luck.
The entire journey before climbing the mountain to go to the bunker only requires a shuttle.
When she’s almost there, all she needs to do is put the shuttle on autopilot and have the destination set as the middle of the ocean.
And she can just jump off.
That way, no one can ever trace her.
Thinking that, Liu Shi Man was pleased.
Her only worry was the Murder Clown who hasn’t appeared yet.
One of the previous champions’, even when he was surrounded by a whole dojo’s worth of Professionists, he didn’t manage to escape and still got killed by the Murder Clown.
Since that’s the case, the more people there are, the more chaotic it’ll become for the victim.
She has the Ring of Teleportation, if she catches sight of the Murder Clown, all she needs to do is activate it.
Even if the clown isn’t there, she’s currently a person of interest, so there are definitely a lot of people looking for her.
It’s best for her to just hide in the bunker for a while before going about again.
After registering on the GPS, the shuttle quickly flew along the new route.
A few hours later.
An electronic voice came from the shuttle.
[It’s currently 2:37 PM. I’ve detected that you seem to be quite tired, would you like for the GPS system to take over on auto-pilot?]
Liu Shi Man stretched, then yawned.
During the battle in the Game of Eternal, she has been in a constant state of battle all the way until she won, so she’s been very high-strung.
Although the coffin healed her wounds, it couldn’t clear her mental fatigue.
After returning to Reality, changing her clothes, stealing a shuttle, even on constant guard against the Murder Clown, she’s been forced almost to her limit already.
Liu Shi Man thought about it for a bit, then said: “No it’s fine, I’ll keep driving”
[Understood]
After receiving her answer, the electronic voice went away.
Another hour later.
Liu Shi Man is already too hungry to bear it anymore.
She frowned, kept persevering and drove the shuttle.
It’s been a few hours and the sun will set soon.
“Find me somewhere around here that sells food” Liu Shi Man finally ordered.
She found that if she keeps starving herself like this, don’t mention fighting, she might not even be able to keep driving the shuttle.
An electronic voice responded: [Keep driving ahead for 30km, you will reach Chang Yuan city, the three most popular restaurants are ——-]
Liu Shi Man cut the voice off: “Don’t go into the city, find me a village”
[Understood, to get to the nearest village, you need to fly for another 117km]
“Then I’ll drive until I reach the village” Liu Shi Man insisted.
“Fly faster” she added.
[Yes]
After a while, she finally made it here.
[I’ve recommended two restaurants] the electronic voice reported.
Liu Shi Man glanced over and found that this was a small rural village.
There were two restaurants here, one at the village center, the other was on the highway connecting to the village.
Very obviously, the first restaurant is primarily meant to serve the villagers, it’s also rated quite highly and doesn’t need to worry much about staying in business.
The second restaurant purposefully opened on the highway to receive drive-through guests, so the food served here is more varied.
This restaurant also needs to keep its reputation; otherwise travelers will just choose a different highway restaurant.
If looking purely from a quality standpoint, these two restaurants are definitely the best choices.
“Too many…” Liu Shi Man looked over the hundreds of ratings for these two restaurants and muttered.
She thought about it for a bit then asked: “Are there any other restaurants in the village?”
Seven markers appeared on the map.
Liu Shi Man looked over it, then picked the one that was in the most secluded place and ordered: “We’re going here”
[Understood, currently rerouting] the electronic voice responded.
Not too long later, the shuttle landed on the parking lot of the restaurant she picked.
Liu Shi Man frowned.
There’s quite a few cars parked here already, as well as 7-8 shuttles on the side.
That’s no problem I guess.
This is already the one with the least guests, and one that I specifically picked out.
It’s about dinner time, so having shuttles come to order food is nothing to be surprised about, otherwise this place would have already ran out of business.
Some villagers also come here to eat.
Thinking that, Liu Shi Man looked at the restaurant.
There’s very few people inside, quite a few tables were empty. It actually looked a bit lonely as well.
Everyone were eating their meals, occasionally people who knew each other called out and chatted for a bit.
Liu Shi Man nodded.
This is already her best choice.
Suddenly, a small flying bike arrived at the restaurant.
A young man carried a huge bag of empty boxes, got down his tattered flying bike and started to unpack them one by one.
Clearly he just came back from a delivery.
Every restaurant is like this, they would have at least one or two employees specifically for delivery, nothing unusual.
Watching the young man walking inside, Liu Shi Man was hesitant.
A few more shuttles landed, as people came out one after another.
Some people were leaving the restaurant after they finished eating.
Liu Shi Man looked at the people outside the restaurant.
A family of five, a family of three, one or two couples, and a few young men who looked smart for their age.
So many people came suddenly.
Liu Shi Man’s expression changed.
She didn’t move, not even touching the shuttle door and simply turned on the camera installed outside the shuttle to watch the situation.
She rubbed the golden ring lightly.
