Chapter 160: The Furious Peerless Prideful
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In his new life, Li Cheng was naturally very careful. His real name was only known by Trelafany and Ella. Not even his few female heroes and Pearl knew.
The current Peerless Prideful was obviously unable to get in touch with the two Goddesses.
As for the transfer records in the real world, there were no records at all. Li Cheng had only bought the gaming pod and some nutrient fluids.
There were at least a few hundred million people in the world who had these records. No matter how powerful Peerless Prideful was, he would not be able to find these things.
When he thought of this, Li Cheng was not worried at all. He said, “I didn’t do anything. I just simply cast two of my skills on him.”
After he finished speaking, Li Cheng briefly explained the effects of the two skills to Purple Rose.
After hearing Li Cheng’s words, Purple Rose remained silent for a few minutes. After a long while, she finally said, “Netherworld, you’re too ruthless!”
Hearing this, Li Cheng shrugged his shoulders. Was he ruthless?
He let out a carefree laugh. If he was not ruthless to his enemies, should he have danced with them and told them about his treasures?
On the other hand, Purple Rose was completely stunned by Li Cheng’s message. Even in the game world, she could not help but shiver.
‘F*ck, luck value decreased by 99,999, territory population and troop morale decreased by 99%…’

If Li Cheng had used these two skills on her, she might as well have died. Purple Rose finally understood why Peerless Prideful was said to be a super unlucky guy. She also understood why he would put a bounty on Li Cheng. Anyone would have done the same.
Purple Rose did not know what to say, so she hung up the phone after saying, “Forget it. Just be careful. You have to hide your identity. The real world isn’t a game.”
…
At this moment, on the top floor of a skyscraper in the real world, Peerless Prideful’s face was dark as he stared at the computer screen. On the screen, the 500 billion dollars that he had just exchanged had all disappeared. Not a single cent was left for him.

Below him were countless men in suits. They lowered their heads and did not dare to breathe loudly, afraid that Peerless Prideful would vent his anger on them.
Bang!
Peerless Prideful slammed his hand hard on the table. His face was filled with anger as he said, “What the hell is going on?!!”
A beautiful lady in a suit shivered in fear as she quickly said, “Boss, we’ve already asked the officials. They said that this is the result of the artificial intelligence running on its own. Without finding out the reason, there’s nothing they can do about it…”
The more she spoke, the more furious Peerless Prideful’s face became. In the end, Peerless Prideful interrupted her and roared, “Trash!! They’re all a bunch of trash!!”
As soon as she finished speaking, there was another ‘bang’. The chair beneath Peerless Prideful suddenly broke. It fell heavily to the ground, catching everyone off guard.
Everyone who saw this scene was shocked. They looked at each other and did not dare to say anything. Could it be that their boss’s bad luck had been brought into the real world?
After being flustered for a while, Peerless Prideful struggled to get up from the ground. His eyes were extremely fierce, and he seemed as if he wanted to swallow someone alive. He gritted his teeth and said, “What about Netherworld’s true identity? Have you found any news on that?”
The beautiful office lady pushed up her rimless glasses and said in a low voice, “Boss, Netherworld’s very careful. We’ve investigated all the users who cashed in large sums of money today, and the possibilities have been eliminated…”
Hearing this, the entire meeting room fell silent. Everyone was at wit’s end. Now, whoever the demon master spoke to who could not come up with an idea would definitely become his punching bag.
At this moment, someone’s eyes suddenly lit up as he said in surprise, “Boss, I’ve thought of an idea!”
“Speak!” Peerless Prideful looked at him expectantly.
That subordinate quickly said, “We can’t find any information about Netherworld, but Pearl definitely has a special relationship with him. We can start with Pearl!”
Hearing these words, Peerless Pride was instantly delighted. The relationship between Pearl and Netherworld had been trending on the forum over the last few days. Even a fool could tell that their relationship was not ordinary. Some players speculated that Pearl and Netherworld were boyfriend and girlfriend.
To verify the truth, this player even posted pictures of Pearl frequently entering and leaving the Netherworld’s territory. Then, he confirmed this news with ‘proof’.
Thinking of this, Peerless Prideful let out a long sigh of relief. His depressed mood from the past few days was instantly lifted.
That was right. He had no idea where to start with Netherworld’s identity, but he could start with his woman. He looked around at his subordinates and asked, “Have you found out Pearl’s attributes?”
When he asked this, his subordinates fell silent again. The one who came up with the idea lowered his head and said, “… I can’t seem to find her yet.”
Peerless Prideful’s expression froze for a moment before he slammed his fist on the table again.
“Trash!
“Good-for-nothing!
“You’re talking about all this when you can’t even find anything?!”
This kind of mood fluctuation caused Peerless Prideful’s blood pressure to soar. He was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
Everyone shrunk their necks and did not dare to speak.
Pearl, a well-known unspecialized player in the Divine Dragon Alliance, had been famous for God knows how many years. Yet, her real identity had never been exposed. It was impossible to find anything about her. If she could be found, she would have been found a long time ago. She would not have waited for Tribe to have her identity uncovered so easily.
…
With the appearance of various systems, it meant that Tribe’s game world and the modern world’s integration had taken a step forward.
After that, with the integration of the two worlds, there would be new systems. For example, there would be various rankings, various tournaments, various competitions, and an achievement system that would appear in the future. They would all be released one after another.
Thinking of this, Li Cheng decided to take some time to go back to the real world. The more powerful one was, the more sensitive one would be. As for Li Cheng’s attributes, they were simply too strong.. He, too, wanted to see how far he had progressed.
