《After Divorcing, She Shocked The World (1)》Chapter 100 - Dangerous Transaction

"D*mn it!"
Relying on her ultra-strong physique, Wu Mei regained consciousness within a short period of time.
She threw away the jacket on her and rubbed the back of her neck that was aching. She was frustrated that Li Nanchen still wanted to be a hero at a time like this. Just as she was about to walk down the road to help him, she ran into a few assassins!
While both of them were stunned, Wu Mei was the first to attack. She propped herself up on the metal barrel and leapt up, kicking the other party to the ground.
Upon hearing the sound of a fight, the assassins surrounded her. Wu Mei's wounds burst open and she took a few punches due to exhaustion.
The other party did not seem to want to kill her. On the contrary, it seemed like they wanted to capture her alive. They approached her step by step, coincidentally giving Wu Mei some breathing space.
Just as she scanned the surrounding terrain and was about to counterattack, she suddenly felt an extremely unbearable pain in her body. Wu Mei bent down and hugged her head, realizing that her drug addiction was about to act up!
She collapsed onto the ground, her body curled up and trembling. Her vision was blurry as she saw the assassins approaching...
Bang! Bang! Bang!
After a few shots, the assassins fell to the ground.
In the darkness, K ran to Wu Mei's side and carried her up...
Wu Yi, who had followed them from the villa, had originally planned to see if Wu Mei and Li Nanchen were really going to fall out. She did not expect to encounter such an intense scene. She was so frightened that her face had turned pale. Before she left, she saw K's actions and took out her phone to take a few suggestive photos. Extremely satisfied, she then escaped!

"Hold on!"
K used his fingers to forcefully separate Wu Mei's teeth to prevent her from biting the tip of her tongue and bleeding excessively.
Wu Mei grabbed his collar tightly and wanted to snatch the gun from him to threaten him to let her go. However, the drug addiction controlled her body and made her hands slumped down.
Sensing her resistance, K said in a low voice, "Don't worry, I won't tell the Ministry of Defense!"
"They won't know what happened today, nor will the other Special Agents... I will even help you survive the drug addiction!"
K's promise was not trustworthy.
Wu Mei's entire body trembled as she sneered. She bit her lips so hard to retain her consciousness as she interrogated him, "You won't be so kind!"
"Of course, I have conditions!"
"You're Ben's disciple now. I'll save you and help you control your drug addiction. You'll monitor Ben for me and report back to me anytime. How about that?"
K threw out the deal.
Wu Mei thought that if she wanted to investigate the truth, she would need to get close to K and Ben at the same time. This was undoubtedly the best chance!
She deliberately hesitated for a while and pretended that she could not survive the drug addiction. Then, she nodded in agreement!
K brought Wu Mei to the nearest small dark room, tied her up with a hemp rope, and splashed cold water on her face to suppress her repeated relapses!
...
In the hospital, Li Nanchen slowly regained consciousness. Seeing the few officers from the Ministry of Defense beside him, he asked, "Where's Wu Mei? How is she?"
Thinking that he wanted to hold Wu Mei accountable, an officer quickly explained, "It was our Special Agent who didn't protect you well. President Li, don't be angry..."

Li Nanchen's eyes were bloodshot. He struggled to sit up on the bed and accidentally tugged on the IV needle. Blood flowed back. "Let me ask you again, where is she?"
The officer was frightened by how he looked and could only answer honestly, "We didn't find Special Agent Wu Mei nearby. The surveillance cameras in the vicinity also seem to have been deliberately destroyed. But don't worry, we're still searching..."
"I'll go and find her myself!"
Li Nanchen wanted to leave, but his head felt heavy and his feet felt light.
The officer from the Ministry of Defense quickly got a medical staff to come over and said, "President Li, you need to rest well. The security around this hospital has been set up. We will make a copy of the surveillance video for you. It's better for you to wait here for any news."
Li Nanchen gritted his teeth and remained silent.
The Ministry of Defense handed the video to him. He wanted to crawl into the screen to look for her, but Wu Mei could not be seen in the surveillance cameras. It was as if she had been wiped out of thin air!
Where has she gone? Is she in danger?
Wild thoughts raced through Li Nanchen's mind and he went berserk.
Furious, he smashed the computer. It happened to land at the feet of Wu Yi, who was visiting him.
Wu Yi pretended to be concerned as she picked up the fruits and sat by the bed. She said, "Brother Nanchen, are you looking for Big Sister?"
"I saw her last night. Do you want to take a look?"
Wu Yi showed the few photos that had been taken to Li Nanchen. On the screen, K was carrying Wu Mei while she gently grabbed the hem of K's shirt, their posture provocative.
"Big Sister is too much. Auntie's condition isn't great yet she still runs out to meet her lover!" Wu Yi added fuel to the fire. Li Nanchen enlarged the photo. Through the blurriness, he could tell that the person was the man that Wu Mei had stalked the night before!
The tips of his fingers turned pale as he held the phone. His lips curled up into a self-deprecating sneer.. His heart seemed to have fallen into an icy pit as it froze.

Nero Zero
Monsters plagued the lands for too long. No matter if one had fangs, beak, teeth, skin, fur, or feather, or was tall, stout, or diminutive, the people suffered. Until the Gadgeteers came with a device that could allow people to fight back. Powered by one's own magical power, feeding off of monster Essence, the Arbitrium bracer turned the tables. It also changed society. Strength of one's level cap was all that mattered. The strongest were Kings and Emperors. The weak or those too poor to afford the marvelous device, destitute. And so it has been for millennia. All that mattered was one's level cap. High, low, a fate decided the moment the strange contraption came alive. Too high and you were a threat to those interested in keeping the status quo, a weed to be nipped before it could grow and take root. Too low and you were nobody, fated to be a bit more than a simple farmer. What if someone, somewhere, came up with a zero for their level cap? Unable to use Essence, unable to level up. On all of recorded history, it never happened. Until it did. In a small village of fur-less and tail-less ape-beastkin, a boy found out he was uniquely handicapped. Nero's level cap was Zero. But he'd never let that stop him from reaching his goals. ------------------------------------------------ All stories have already been told. We merely reuse elements from them. From Joseph Campbell's Monomith to Stephen King's advice, and that encyclopedia of tropes you've visited, fiction has been dissected and reassembled countless times. One will surely find elements inspired on other works here. Just like cooking from basic ingredients, the recipe and presentation is what really matter. This is a fantasy adventure, of someone that goes from a zero to a slightly bigger zero. It will have romance but no harem. Cruelty but with hope dimly shining ahead. Lightweight where it can be, heavy where it must. Thanks for reading. Cover Credits (The cover is CC-BY-NC-SA): Steampunk Spider Bracer, by Daniel Proulx.

'Rise of the Business [Class]' is a story about a world where humanity ended up fleeing through space, after suffering several great disasters at home. On arrival we crash-landed and were soon attacked by magic wielding civilizations who learned how to deal with our weaponry with a speed that belied their seemingly simplistic nature. We were lost. But eventually we survived by abandoning technology and adapting. But this tale takes place thousands of years later, after humanity has had time to rise and falter more than once. It tells of a time where we adapted too much, focusing only on combat and magic and learning to rely on the [System] that our ancestors built in order to compete and survive on this hostile planet with the others. This is a story about our final chance during a time when all of humanity is under siege again, where we struggled to adapt too late and ultimately had to learn how to summon a collection of people from Earth through time and space to come help - but not to the 'besieged time' but back a couple of hundred years - before it went too far down the wrong path, so they can hopefully change things enough to prevent a return to that timeline.

While a trio of native lads excitedly leave home to find adventure, oblivious to how very soon they might end up entangled in the fate of the world.
