Universe Infinite Canteen

Chapter 352 Thanksgiving Package

Ma Lu deliberately waited for Lao Hei to rush out of the KTV for 10 minutes before leaving, and along the way, he also paid for the bottle of wine she knocked over, totaling 1888.

Ma Lu asked the KTV for a receipt, planning to reimburse it the next time he saw Lao Hei.@@@@

As he walked, he carefully observed his surroundings. However, as fear often attracts what one fears, a Bull Horn Helmet Slime blocked Ma Lu's path to his parking spot just as he reached it.

Seeing the blue slime, Ma Lu's hair stood on end and without any hesitation, he immediately raised his hands.

What a joke, although it looked very adorable, the creature was more ferocious than any monster he had encountered before.

Lao Hei had already made a wrong move previously, so Ma Lu extinguished any thoughts of escape or resistance immediately.

The reason he surrendered so quickly was also that these Dimensional Pirates had been on Earth for a while now, and besides Lao Hei, there seemed to be no reports of anyone dying at their hands.

It seemed that unlike the creatures in Hell, focused solely on destruction and killing, they possessed a certain level of rationality and potential for communication, even though they did not speak.

This time, Ma Lu clearly made the right bet.

The Dimensional Pirate, seeing his surrender, did not extend its tentacles toward him but merely circled around him to make sure he was not hiding a bread machine anywhere on his person, then silently retreated back into the dark.

Had it gone?

Ma Lu stood there a while longer, and not seeing the slime again, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He immediately climbed into the driver's seat, started the car, and drove back to the rented apartment complex at the speed limit.

Even by the time he got back to his rental room, Ma Lu's heart was still pounding. He had already sent Lao Hei over a dozen messages, but the latter hadn't replied to any.

He didn't know if Lao Hei was already dead.

As for the unclear origin of that old bread machine, Ma Lu hadn't carried it on his person at all.

If his newly acquired Radish Patch could be stuck onto High-Dimensional Artifacts, Ma Lu might have even dared to risk tucking that old bread machine into his Collection Bag and bringing it back.

Unfortunately, the Radish Patch only worked on items other than High-Dimensional Artifacts. Although 10,000 Star Currency was not a small amount, it wasn't high enough for Ma Lu to risk his precious life.

So, he simply hid the old bread machine in the ceiling of the KTV private room and walked out empty-handed.

This was typical of Ma Lu's style, taking a small gamble without threatening his own safety.

"But now with the game, maybe the exploration progress can be accelerated a bit."

"It doesn't matter, I just want to earn a bit of extra money," said Ma Lu.

Old Wang took fifteen minutes to prepare the Thanksgiving meal set.

It consisted of four dishes: Love's Runny Heart Egg, Praise the Bamboo Shoot, Smiling Crispy Chicken, and the main dish was Warm-Heart Konjac Ramen.

The Wandering Sorcerer felt as if her stomach had a massage, warming her entire body.

Putting down her soup bowl, she couldn't help but emit a satisfied sigh.

"Winter is truly the time for noodle soup."

"If you want to eat, you can always come to me."

"I don't have that much spare money."

"Don't worry, you've helped me so many times, I can waive your meal costs for Star Currency below rank 3 ingredients," Ma Lu generously said.

Of course, he had his own motives for saying this. The Wandering Sorcerer had once, with a single move, chased Dimensional Pirates, who caused chaos everywhere. Her combat capabilities in this Plane are arguably not far from the best.

If he could foster a good relationship with her, then Ma Lu would effectively have a powerful ally watching his back, which would greatly increase his safety even if he couldn't be invincible.

However, the Female Sorceress just smiled slightly, "Thank you very much. However, I will probably only stay here until next year."

"Huh?" Ma Lu was startled upon hearing this.

"I'm a Wandering Sorcerer, don't you remember? Our tribe of Wandering Sorcerers bears the heavy responsibility of repairing and sealing the Gates of Hell. We are destined to roam the Multiverse for life. My mentor did so, I do so, and so will my disciples in the future.

"Once the seals here are repaired, I will set off for the next Plane."

"When will you come back?" Ma Lu asked.

"You better not expect me to come back. Because if I do, it would mean this Plane is in danger of being invaded by Hell again," she said.

"Do you really have to go, though? There are many Wandering Sorcerers, surely missing one wouldn't be too much of a problem?"

"Nope, as a Wandering Sorcerer, one cannot abandon the sacred oath," the Female Sorceress said, shaking her head.
