The Great Thief Chapter 1610

Chapter 1610: 1610
“Snowy, careful of the people on your left . When I increase your movement speed, you should sprint straight away,” Lu Li said from the sky .
“Didn’t you say not to sprint too fast at the start?”
The tactic they discussed beforehand didn’t seem to be like this . Water Fairy’s character tended to be more independent; she definitely needed to know why . Even if she looked submissive, she definitely wasn’t one to stupidly follow the guy along .
“No time to explain, just get on the ram,” Lu Li urged as the gun was fired . Without hesitation, Water Fairy got on the ram and rushed out .
One moment, he was rubbing shoulders with her and the next she was gone . The person on her left wasn’t going forward, but was tilting towards Water Fairy . It was only because of Water Fairy suddenly increasing her speed that he lost his target . He could only watch helplessly as she rushed ahead .
Others didn’t have this sort of luck that Water Fairy had . Their rams had been struck from every direction .
At this, there was a confused war going on in the group, but they couldn’t use skills to fight . They could only control the rams to bump into each other .
Those with the restraining ropes down in the darkness were happy like this . Everyone had a lot of fun .
Those who were more clever immediately realised what these people were doing . They immediately controlled their rams to try and avoid these people, running straight ahead . However, the people at the rear persisted in bothering them, which greatly affected the speed of those at the front .
Only about a dozen people escaped unscathed .
Water Fairy was one of them . She was originally one of the targets of those restraining ropes, but Lu Li had commanded her to hide from that disaster .
There was someone behind Water Fairy trying to stop her, but they had been flung away behind her . Lu Li commanded Water Fairy again to change lanes twice . Very soon, there were two people between Water Fairy and the restraining rope . There was no way to impede her in such a short amount of time .

“What happened? Is there someone causing trouble?”
Water Fairy should have been able to realise what was going on even if she wasn’t so intelligent .
“Yeah, I couldn’t confirm who benefited in the end . I only have a suspect target,” Lu Li said as he observed from above, trying to look for as many clues as he could . After all, no less than a dozen people could have benefited .
“Capital Beauty?” Water Fairy guessed .
“Yeah, I think it’s probably her,” Lu Li agreed . He had previously seen two restraining ropes next to her, but she hadn’t been targeted by them .
“Hehe, she’s really asking for it,” Water Fairy said coldly .
The Female Tycoon was feeling a little annoyed at this point . How dare these people mess with her?!
Water Fairy was never one to repay evil with kindness .
Almost the entire gaming circle knew that if you crossed Water Fairy in the arena, then it would be a nightmare for you off the arena, .
When Water Fairy had just entered the gaming circle, she was a beautiful girl that even the blind recognized . Because of this, there were often people annoying her, but they were harshly dealt with in the arena . This gradually led to the Female Tycoon becoming infamous for being not someone to mess with .
This so-called Capital Beauty, who everyone was originally crowding around, was likely the principle offender .
He wouldn’t be one to sympathise with this sort of people . Even if Water Fairy didn’t do anything, Lu Li himself would still think about exacting revenge on her guild .
HE and Water Fairy had similar personalities – they were not people you would like to mess with . It was just that their methods were different . Water Fairy was more direct . She would probably go back and directly declare war on this club . If a major guild like Drizzle Court declared war on them, it would probably scare them out of their wits .

It was savage tactic; you could even call it rude and unreasonable .
However, Lu Li would probably be a bit more low key about it . For example, he could fabricate some evidence and give it to Glory Capital to confirm that this mid-sized guild was linked to the Longspear Valley war . Lu Li always had a way to make something that looked suspicious t into something that was completely undoubtable .
Glory Capital would take the bait . They would question closely and investigate, but in any case, they certainly wouldn’t make life easy for this mid-sized guild .
Actually, this guild would rather face Glory Capital, rather than just closing their eyes and letting the Female Tycoon trample over them . After all, the Female Tycoon didn’t even let them off on this ram race .
Very soon, Lu Li confirmed that Capital Beauty was up to no good .
After the first apple crate came out, the first dozen people at the front appeared again with restraining ropes . They were up to their old tricks again, still trying to annoy the players by snatching their apples .
Lu Li really didn’t understand how these people thought . If they really wanted to let Capital Beauty take first place, couldn’t they just use themselves as cannon fodder? Why did they have to oppress others?
“What do we do?” Water Fairy asked .
“Give up this apple and change onto the left road . Your opponent in front of you to your left farmed a new apple crate . Your fatigue bar isn’t full yet, right? Rush right at it at full speed – after all, when you eat an apple your fatigue bar will reset,” Lu Li said .
Since there was now a better option, there was no need to compete with Capital Beauty . What was more, Lu Li believed that Water Fairy would be faster than Capital Beauty . After all, her manoeuvres were simply not as agile as Water Fairy’s .
“Go block up that girl at the front,” Capital Beauty commanded in a gruff voice . On top of the fact that her appearance was above average at best, she had to be incredibly thick-skinned to call herself Capital Beauty .
These people were probably from Capital Beauty’s guild . As soon as they heard her command, they rushed over without saying another word .
It was a shame that Water Fairy was already too far in the lead . Rushing forward at full speed towards the apple crate, her soon-to-be-full fatigue bar was immediately cleared . The people at the back were left behind in her tracks . The only one who could stop her from getting to the end was that one who had gotten the apple crate, Capital Beauty .
Water Fairy grunted coldly as she steered her ram into Capital Beauty .
The Female Tycoon was really like how her colleagues described her – always seeking revenge, even for the small things .
In men’s hearts, beautiful girls who were kind, considerate, cute and clever were more popular .
Capital Beauty probably was a noob . At the least, she had no way of competing with professional-level players . Upon seeing Water Fairy crash into her, she let out a strange cry and covered her head . She was actually leading Water Fairy by a fraction . All that was needed was to avoid this hit and zoom forward towards the end .
Without her players driving her on, the ram’s speed would slowly decrease by itself .
So what other bit of suspense was there about the result?

An Unbound Soul
When Peter suffers a too-close encounter with a truck, he finds himself reborn in another world. At first glance it is a perfect fantasy land. There's magic to play with, elves singing in the forest and a hyperactive catgirl neighbour. There's even a System that lets him earn skills and level up. But it isn't long before he notices that the world is far too perfect. Just why is everyone so nice? Can Peter accept the alien morality of this world's self-proclaimed protector, or will he seek to overthrow her? Set after the events of A Lonely Dungeon, a few hundred years after the rebirth of civilization, this is a story about an earthling falling into Erryn's new world and the subsequent struggles of himself and Erryn to understand each other.

The Empty Valley Cries Unheard
The stories can be read at any order. Phew, this story was finally finished at last! What could I say, it was a hell of a ride when I wrote it from the beginning to end. Thanks for having me on RR :D All the current chapter had already done a run on Grammarly, so hopefully it'd be more readable. ...kinda feeling lazy so calling off the edits for now. A couple of old / new attempts of combining Horror, Comedy and Absurdist elements. I'm not very good at writing Horror stories but I'd like to try once in a while. Although the first chapter may be completely screwed up, believe me--I mostly write fluffy gay scenes between two girls. It would PROBABLY become a lot lighter as we moved up the chapter count. Not for the faint of heart, but if you're like me who like some absurd or nonsensical stories, this might be right up your alley. Sorry in advance if some of the chapters seem normal lol additional tags : nonsense / absurd / parody

A Demon Lord's Reincarnation
Selina’s got a pretty active imagination. When doing math, she pretends that she is a great detective solving a heinous crime! Ordinary tasks, like a trip upstairs, turn into a perilous adventure to raid a dragon’s cave! She believes that life should be full of wonder and magic, and tries to force the world to cope with her conviction! But when Selina wakes up to remember her past life as the Demon Lord, she has to face the fact that real life is messy, and not anything like what she imagined. With ancient powers stirring, family problems, and the hectic life of a teenager, Selina will have to discover more about herself if she is going to survive the trials ahead. With the help of her best friend and a fair share of luck, she might just get through this alive. Maybe. (Updates (hopefully) on Sundays) This story started out as a flipped isekai. Instead of a hero being pulled into a medieval world, a Demon Lord is pulled into the modern world. It has since moved a bit beyond that initial premise but it is the foundation of the work. Along the way, I threw in dragons, elves, dwarves, and some vampires (but no werewolves, gotta nip that in the bud) all wrapped up in the political drama of a modern world. The story, however, will mainly focus on the characters and their development and as such, is a bit of a slow burn. It may take a couple of chapters to get into. You have been warned! (PS, please show patience for the author's notes. They're a bit crazy and don't always make the most sense. The author's a bit of a ditz. Please ignore him.)

Blood & Noodles
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] As they always have, humanity hunts the gods roaming the world, craving the supernatural power that flows within their veins. Even a drop is zealously guarded, passed from master to student through the ages. It is with this stolen power that the Blooded - those with divine blood coursing through them - grasp beyond mortality and achieve prestige, power, and greatness. Yet, for every fraction of power gained, thousands perish, slain by the gods' supernatural prowess. But everything is beginning to change. Eight years ago, for the first time in human memory, a god was felled. Part-time chef and full-time nuisance Orvi wants nothing to do with gods. Living in a derelict city, his only concerns are ensuring his adopted family's restaurant is prosperous and how to best beat the neighbourhood boys in a fight. If he's lucky, he might even snag a date with the farmer's daughter at the market. But even though he cares nothing for the gods or their blood, the world won't leave him alone forever. Because to reach godhood, one must first leave their humanity behind. *** The first arc of Blood & Noodles follows the adolescent Orvi as he attempts to navigate his rapidly changing home and - by his own definition - protect his family. The story is told almost entirely in the first-person, from the perspective of a teenager who isn't always the sharpest tool in the shed. There are tragic elements, especially in the current arc. It's character-focused and driven, though the protagonist's shenanigans are backdropped by a world operating independently from him. Orvi's a generally light-hearted character, and though the story veers into darker territory, I also want it to be able to make readers smile. Action sequences, despite the fantastical elements, are meant to be grounded and clearly-conveyed; Orvi is a brawler, not a warrior. I'm trying to write a story that's enjoyable to read and flows nicely, mainly because it's more fun to write. I'm also trying to improve my writing, so any feedback, whether positive or negative, is welcome!
