Chapter 445: 445: Lin Zhen’s Privilege

Translator: 549690339

Huo Li felt a series of dizziness, holding onto his throat from which fresh blood flowed continuously, and walked towards Lin Zhen and Ling’er.

However, when Ling’er saw him approach, she seemed disgusted and hid behind Lin Zhen’s back.

Lin Zhen sneered, protecting Ling’er. “Huo Li, if I were you, I wouldn’t be trying to get closer to a girl now. Instead, I’d be worried about how to face Han Sha, Jie Li, and the others after this. As a member of the Star River Giant Beast Alliance, you got slapped by gangs and didn’t dare to fight back. You’ve completely brought shame upon our alliance!”

“I… I… She!”

Huo Li still wanted to argue and win Ling’er, but couldn’t finish his words.

Lin Zhen waved his hand, “No more. The most embarrassing part is that you lost the fight. If it weren’t for me, who knows what would have happened to Ling’er. You should be too ashamed to even approach her!”

Huo Li held his throat, mumbling unclearly, dizzy from Lin Zhen’s words and Ling’er’s disgusted attitude.

Blood seeped from his fingers, and he couldn’t tell the difference between reality and fantasy, so he ended up dying.

As he died, he briefly regained clarity. His malicious gaze landed on Lin Zhen, but he also felt a little excited.

In the Dimensional Universe’s battle, Lin Zhen was the first to attack, killing all the Heavenly Tower members. Therefore, the costs of food and drink, as well as the damages to the bar, fell upon Lin Zhen’s side.

This meal cost a billion Sanjiang currency, and the damage to the bar had reached hundreds of billions. There were thousands of tables dining in the hall, each with consumption ranging from millions to billions. All the damages would be charged to Lin Zhen’s party.

Add the bar’s equipment, and the total reached a hundred billion, an amount even Huo Li couldn’t pay in one go, and certainly not the penniless Lin Zhen.

The Dimensional Universe was maintained by a so-called Cosmic Crystal, and the consumption of these crystals needs to be paid for.

All the items generated within the Dimensional Universe were not simulated out of thin air. They required energy and cost, so one couldn’t just arbitrarily destroy things here.

For example, when the Fairy Forest served them a dish, energy was consumed. The price charged by the bar was the profit after the cost of that energy. The same applied to other tables and facilities.

Normally, Huo Li should have paid this sum since he made the reservation, but now that he was dead and unable to log into the Dimensional Universe for a month, his bank card would need to be activated to pay.

Forcing a card payment was within the rights of the Hill Star branch of the Universe’s First Bank, as long as a member with a higher level provided proof and made an application. The bank could forcibly launch Huo Li’s card and deduct the funds as a way to prevent people from consuming in the Dimensional Universe and then not paying their bills.

However, Huo Li was now fearless because the card he used was given by his father, with an internal limit reaching hundreds of billion, which he was not allowed to use. Thus, his card reached the Gold Member level.

To force his card payment, a Platinum Member application was required, and Huo Li didn’t believe there would be a Platinum Member in Hills Star.

Only those with trillions in savings could qualify for Platinum Membership, and even their mining group hadn’t reached that level.

So, in the end, Lin Zhen would have to pay. If he didn’t, it would mean they were in conflict with the Dimensional Universe Corporation!

The Dimensional Universe Corporation was a vast organization spanning the universe, much more powerful than the Star River Giant Beast Alliance. No one dared to confront them, so Lin Zhen and his comrades would have pay obediently.

Dying once saved him hundreds of billions, so it was worth it.

“Lin Zhen, you bastards! When you can’t find the cash to pay, let’s see how you can play the hero! If you all come begging me, I will humiliate you thoroughly and still won’t give you the money!”

With that thought, Huo Li closed his eyes.

Lin Zhen didn’t bother with Huo Li. After killing Jin Haonan, few people from Heavenly Tower were left. He rushed into the crowd to fight alongside his teammates. After a fierce battle, they successfully defeated the Heavenly Tower members.

They had deeply offended Heavenly Tower this time, but Lin Zhen didn’t care. Sooner or later, they would have to face this conflict, so he might as well be decisive.

The battle ended with about seven people on Lin Zhen’s side, while the Heavenly Tower was wiped out.

As Lin Zhen finished off the last Heavenly Tower member, Ling’er anxiously cried out, “Brother Lin, don’t….”

The corpse fell, and Lin Zhen looked at Ling’er, “What’s the matter?”

“You killed them all. You have to pay for the damages to the bar.”

Ling’er was so worried she wanted to cry. Although she didn’t have to pay for the damages, she didn’t want Lin Zhen to pay either.

Lin Zhen smiled, “Ling’er, don’t worry. I have a solution. You should leave the Dimensional Universe now and reach the Fairy Forest Bar in the real world in two hours. I’ll find you there.”

Ling’er gritted her teeth and nodded. “Be careful.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t do anything I’m not sure about.”

Ling’er left the Dimensional Universe, and the bar’s owner approached.

This time, he was confident because Ling’er wasn’t part of his property. He couldn’t prevent Heavenly Tower from causing trouble, but the bar was his property, protected by the Dimensional Universe Corporation. Nobody could just smash it for free.

“Sir, you see…”

“How much in total?”

“It’s counted, one hundred and twenty-five billion. Here’s the bill.”

A bill generated within the Dimensional Universe listed all the things, and it was quite long.

The other Martial Artists’ faces changed color. If they had to pay the sum, even if it was divided equally, it would still be a heavy burden.

Lin Zhen smiled at the others: “You don’t need to worry, I’ll take responsibility for this, rest assured, someone will pay for it.”

Asking the bar owner to wait, Lin Zhen whispered to Cao Yang beside him: “Shouldn’t this be paid by Huo Li?”

“Yes, but he can’t enter the Dimensional Universe to pay now, so he can only force the card through the bank, but the level needs to be higher than Huo Li’s to apply. I know he has a Gold Member card, but it’s useless in this situation.”

Lin Zhen turned to the bar: “I’ll give you the Dimensional Universe code, now go out and get the money, wait for me.”

Having the Dimensional Universe code, they weren’t afraid of Lin Zhen running away. Lin Zhen and his group all left the Dimensional Universe.

After leaving the Dimensional Universe, Lin Zhen returned to his room.

Stepping out of the room, his companions were all here, including Huo Li.

Huo Li looked at Lin Zhen, his face full of resentment and a hint of arrogance: “Lin Zhen, don’t be delusional, I won’t pay that bill, if you have the ability, pay it yourself.”

Lin Zhen snorted: “Do you think I came to beg you for money?”

“Isn’t that the case? I heard it all, more than 10 billion, Lin Zhen, I have written down everything you did today, and we will settle our accounts later.”

“Hehe! That’s what I thought too, but there’s a slight difference between our intentions. Our accounts can’t be settled slowly, they must be settled today, right now.”

“What do you mean?” Huo Li became cautious.

“You’ll know soon.”

Lin Zhen knew Huo Li’s Dimensional Universe code, immediately re-entered the Dimensional Universe, saved all the screenshots of the Fairy Forest Bar incident, and then went to the Hills Star branch of the Universe’s First Bank.

Through Huo Li’s code, he found the other party’s bank account.

Lin Zhen’s account was a platinum account, and he immediately requested Huo Li to compensate for the loss of the Fairy Forest Bar.

Faced with the platinum customer’s request, the bank didn’t dare to delay and quickly verified the evidence. The process was swift, and in less than five minutes, 12.5 billion was transferred from Huo Li’s card!

After exiting the Dimensional Universe, Lin Zhen saw Huo Li with wide eyes and a dumbfounded expression.

More than 10 billion disappeared just like that!

“What’s going on? Why was my money forcibly taken?”

Lin Zhen sneered: “Isn’t it clear? I submitted an application to the bank, and made you compensate the Fairy Forest Bar for its losses, and then your money was gone.”

“You… you have a platinum account?” Huo Li stared in disbelief.

Lin Zhen didn’t answer Huo Li’s silly question and turned and left the room.

There were gasps of surprise from behind him.

Wealth is also a kind of strength. Many people present could afford this compensation, but it would be a huge burden. They all knew what a platinum account represented.

An account balance of one trillion is required for a platinum account.

A trillion in Sanjiang currency is an enormous amount of wealth!

The seemingly unknown Lin Zhen was actually a platinum account holder, just what kind of background did he have?

He was rumored to be a minor lord of the Tianhe Empire, but could the lords of a minor civilized Universe Country really be so wealthy?

The martial artists present looked at Huo Li and felt that he was far from Lin Zhen and not worthy of being their leader.

Huo Li clenched his teeth, losing more than 10 billion, being unable to enter the Dimensional Universe for a month, and completely disgusted Ling’er; he was truly unlucky today.

“Lin Zhen! You have guts, but don’t forget, in the Martial Artist’s world, strength still decides victory and defeat. Today, you humiliated me, and I will repay you. See you at the World Stone!”

Grinding his teeth, Huo Li forced these words out from between them. Just as he was plotting how to retaliate against Lin Zhen, a voice came from behind.

“Huo Li, what happened at the bar today?”

The voice was cold, it was Jie Li’s voice. Even though Han Sha and Jie Li’s strength wasn’t particularly strong, they represented the Star River Giant Beast Alliance, and no one dared to offend them.

Huo Li couldn’t help but shudder and quickly explained: “It was Lin Zhen… He attacked first, otherwise, nothing like this would have happened. He also….”

“Enough!”

Han Sha roared: “If it wasn’t for Lin Zhen’s intervention, the face of our Star River Giant Beast Alliance would have been lost today. We, a cross-universe organization, were being suppressed by a gang. Are you really not trying to attend the Under 100 Year Concentration Camp?”

“It’s not like that, I…”

“No need to say anymore, you can pack your things and leave now. Our Star River Giant Beast Alliance doesn’t need cowards!”

Both Han Sha and Jie Li showed no mercy. In this matter, Huo Li was at fault. Besides, he had a conflict with Lin Zhen. What kind of person was Lin Zhen?

He was a man who had obtained the Super Star River Beast gene. Han Sha and Jie Li were obligated to ensure his safety. It could be said that their future was tied to Lin Zhen’s honor. Compared to that, people like Huo Li, who had obtained intermediate genetic fluid, were nothing. To provoke Lin Zhen was like seeking death!
