Chapter 745: Chapter 7 Favored by Fate_2

Under the premise that he could “easily” complete the main mission, Jason didn’t mind playing dumb.

But this didn’t mean Jason had no bottom line.

At this moment, the other party’s behavior had touched Jason’s bottom line.

So, Jason prepared to retaliate.

The mechanical claws were getting closer.

Just as the two mechanical claws were about to touch Jason’s hockey mask, and Jason was about to swing his knife, a voice appeared—

...

"Wait!”

As Pers showed up, the mechanical claws not only stopped but also retracted.

"Pers, are you stopping me?”

The young man stared at the appearing “contact person,” his voice becoming chilly.

"Your Excellency, I have no intention of stopping you.”

"It’s just

"It’s against the rules.”

Pers bowed in greeting before continuing.

"Rules?”

"Do you know what I represent?”

The young man sneered repeatedly.

"Of course, I do.”

"The ‘Send Family,’ one of the Hundred Major Families, ranked 39th.”

"And you are the ninth in line to inherit the Send Family.”

Pers answered.

"Knowing this, you still dare to stop me?”

The young man questioned.

"Because, these are the rules.”

"Any member who joins the ‘game’ must not suffer any ‘harm’ outside the venue—these are the rules set by him.”

Pers didn’t emphasize his tone, nor did he offer any hints, but this calm response made a flicker of fear appear in the eyes of the arrogant young man before him.

"You’d better stick to your rules!”

"Otherwise

The young man didn’t finish speaking, but with a threatening sneer, he just left.

This time, he didn’t turn back but simply disappeared at the end of the corridor.

Pers turned to look at Jason only after the other’s figure had completely vanished.

"Player Jason, outside of the game, you are absolutely safe.”

"This will never change at any time.”

"So please, keep calm.”

"If you encounter any unsolvable issue, please wait for a while. I will appear by your side as soon as possible to help you solve the problems you can’t.”

The “contact person” Pers said so.

There was an implication in his words.

His glance also caught sight of the knife handle Jason had yet to release.

Jason made no response.

Wait for a while?

Maybe under normal circumstances, he could wait.

But sometimes, waiting only made things worse.

However, Jason didn’t say much.

Of course, he also didn’t release the knife handle.

Seeing this, Pers’s grey eyes flickered, but he ultimately sighed helplessly in his heart.

The heirs of those major families were always causing him unnecessary trouble.

Even a usually serene “Mad Hunter” had become irritable because of them.

What a nuisance!

Muttering to himself internally, Pers showed no outward sign.

"Player Jason, you can tell me anything you need.”

Pers said this and turned to leave.

But just as he turned, Pers suddenly thought of something.

"Player Jason, although the nutrition meals are supplied for free, eating too many is bad for the stomach, of course, we also discourage wasting food. If there is too much waste, we will charge a fee.”

Remembering the message from logistics, Pers felt he had to remind Jason.

Then, Pers turned and left.

Although he was just Jason’s “contact person,” his job was not just that.

He didn’t have much time to stay in one place.

Jason sat and watched Pers walk away, his mind still on the ninth in line to inherit the Send Family. Strangely enough, he had a strong desire to finish the man off with a single stroke.

But his sense of reason told him that keeping things as they were was best at that moment.

An emotional clash with reason.

For Jason, this wasn’t a too difficult choice to make.

Shift focus, that will do!

And what could be more fitting than food?

Jason reached out and pressed the “Nutrition Meal (Free)” button.

Ding~

…

"Hmph!”

"A mere ‘contact person’ dares to stop me!”

"I’ll make sure you pay for this!”

The ninth in line of the Send Family sat in his car, cursing non-stop.

It was several minutes before the cursing stopped.

Then, the young man picked up the phone beside him.

"Losa, my dear friend, I heard your hard-won ‘Head Collector’ got killed?”

"Don’t be angry, I mean no harm.”

"It’s just a toy, after all.”

"What do you think of ‘Jason’?”

"Giving him to you?”

"Of course not, he is one of our important assets, but even the best goods can get damaged—I didn’t say cooperate, I was planning to give you some hints during the F zone rematch, like the latest three-day videos about Jason, along with some information not released to the public.”

"Of course, you need to give something in exchange.”

"Good, I’ll be waiting for your good news.”

After finishing, the young man hung up the phone.

"Pers, you ‘contact person,’ when you lose Jason, the calm ‘Mad Hunter,’ I’ll be sure to arrange a new ‘Mad Hunter’ for you.”

"His temper will not be as good.”

"Naturally, accidents will happen frequently.”

"Rules?”

"Talking to me about rules?”

"Then I’ll play by the rules to death!”

The young man sneered twice and involuntarily looked out the car window.
