Chapter 40: Not A Bad Idea!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
This caused Bruce to question. After questioning,
“Yes, I will arrange for someone to send you out of the building and into the moving box. When you change to a new home, you can connect seamlessly.”
“How is it? This plan of mine is genius, right? Hahahahahaha!”
Although Lexus said that, he was actually hoping to bring Bruce along with the house.
According to Lexus’ guess, the reason why Bruce didn’t go out of the house was probably the same principle as the hermit crab.
However, after the hermit crab lost its shell, it would feel afraid.
And if Bruce lost his home, he would become abnormally violent!
This was his speculation. He was afraid that because of this matter, he would anger the other party and continue to cause harm to the city.
Then he might as well use a peaceful method. In other words, it was something that could be solved with money. They didn’t care.
After explaining, Bruce laughed.
There was such a good thing!
Not only did he have a house to live in!
There was also a seamless move. Such a good thing, Bruce definitely couldn’t do it.
Not to mention how much it would cost, no one was willing to do it.
Only professionals like the SCP would dare to agree to such a strange request.
“Then bring your home with you. When the time comes, just leave me at the door of your home, door to door.”
“Understood. You don’t have to mention it. I know what to do. Just wait. I’ll come and look for you in two days.”
After saying that, Lexus hung up the phone.
There were thousands of people standing in front of him. They were all gathered temporarily because of this plan.
For the SCP, as long as they could take in or control a target, they could pay any price.
But now, just spending a house and their manpower could change this, so why were they unhappy?!
On the contrary, Lexus was very happy.
Because he was the only one who survived the last mission, so he knew the value of life.
Now that he could use such a safe method to solve this matter, it was the best for him.
“Everyone, make all preparations. The combat mission is named Hermit Crab!”
“During the relocation of Hermit Crab, no one is allowed to talk to Hermit Crab. If the other party takes the initiative to talk, remember to speak gently and act naturally. Don’t make the other party feel disgusted or annoyed, and don’t show a fearful expression. According to speculation, the other party can feel it all!”
“During the relocation process, the volume of the sound must be kept to a minimum at every step. The Hermit Crab is very sensitive to sound. Therefore, reduce the volume of the sound as much as possible within a four-meter radius. If anything unexpected happens, we will declare failure. There is a possibility that the Hermit Crab will go berserk. Everyone, please be smart and take care of yourselves
“There are still 48 hours before the mission. From now on, do an inventory of the equipment and prepare it. Dismissed!”
Lexus held Bruce’s information in his hands.
In other words, this mission named Hermit Crab was a mission specifically targeted at Bruce’s plan.
..
On the same night, Bruce clapped his hands and once again dealt with a vampire.
“Ding! Congratulations to the host for overcoming the danger of a D-rank house-leaving crisis. 2 points rewarded!”
After eating, Aurora arrived in the afternoon. Bruce did not ask her to come up, but he asked her to put the food into a bucket and give it to him.
In other words, this meal was made by Aurora.
Now that the things he had expected did not happen, he was a little depressed.
Originally, he thought that after the last wave of television, he would be noticed by many people. He did not expect to be intercepted by the SCP.
Since that was the case, how could he let go of the SCP so easily?
However, he was not very satisfied with these material items. After all, he did not lack money.
What he lacked were points!
POINTS!
How long would it take before he could be surrounded by people and gain points continuously?!
If it was before this, the previous wave of the Flame Man had already brought Bruce close to 100 points.
This was just the effect in a day.
The Flame Man’s popularity was gradually decreasing. Even if there were many of them, it would be meaningless. They already knew that he would not go out.
Therefore, no one went back to ask this question.
The question now was, how could he gather so many people again.
After working with the SCP Foundation, they said that all of his supernatural events were controlled. How to change the current situation was a problem.
They would definitely not let Bruce display his magic and elements in front of the public.
Under such circumstances…
How would Bruce let everyone know of him and find him willingly?
‘Flame Man?’
Bruce could only think of this way to accumulate his fame.
Especially Aurora. She actually drew so well and had so many people like it. If every book had his photo on it, wouldn’t he become famous instantly?
Right now, he was only doing community publicity. What if it was the entire city, the entire country?!
Then wouldn’t everyone know of the name – Flame Man!
Moreover, he already had a bit of fame on the internet. So this method would allow him to quickly increase his fame.
It was a good method.
..
12:00 p.m.
Bruce waited as usual.
Just a second later.
‘Ding, the host has not left the house. Time of departure has been reset. Reward: unbreakable clothing.’
Bruce, who was full of anticipation, saw a question mark appear above the reward.
Unbreakable clothing: Under any circumstances, no matter what happens, the clothing cannot be damaged, and it will remain clean forever. Even if the host dies, it can not be damaged.
‘Hey?
Interesting.
This kind of clothing is equivalent to, in case something happens, not to make yourself naked state?
And it will automatically clean dirty things, the style seems to be able to change, and even its length.
Clothing that I can wear forever?
Wear until my own burial is not a problem too.
Good!
Yes, let’s change into pyjamas to test it out.
Is it really that powerful?’
At this time, Bruce realized that ordinary knives couldn’t pierce through his defense layer at all. There wasn’t even a scratch.
It could even play a defensive role. Although this function wasn’t of much use to him, it was better than nothing.
When he received the reward, he would keep it. When he received the points, he would take them.
Only when his skills became lighter could he face all of this more calmly.
…
There were still 20 hours before the move…
