The crowd behind stirred restlessly.
What was going on? Who was that person, and what was their background to dare cut in line like that? Earlier, he had almost scolded his own Vice Captain, Sequence, when he noticed Yelai being warmly greeted by the staff of the Sequence Association. Sequence moved to help him push through the crowd toward the front desk.
He was cutting in line.
The Vice Captain shot a sidelong glance at his team member and, without waiting for any questions, spoke up.
That person is the one who brought the Heart's Blood of Bloody Mary. Do you think he can’t cut in line?
Wait?! It’s him!
As more and more people recognized Yelai from yesterday when they saw him take on a mission, the crowd erupted into excitement, all eyes focused on Yelai.
Yelai remained oblivious to it all. He walked straight to the front desk and took the vial of Bloody Mary’s blood from the staff member.
After confirming the quantity and authenticity of Bloody Mary’s blood, he didn’t linger. Amidst whispers and envious glances from the crowd, he left with the vial in hand. Throughout the entire process, he ignored the gazes around him.
Well, not entirely.
As he passed by a line of people waiting, he seemed to sense something and looked up, locking eyes with Deo among the group.
Deo’s eyelids twitched.
When he saw Yelai, he tried to keep his head down to avoid being noticed, but Yelai still recognized him at a glance.
At that moment, their eyes met.
Yelai flashed a meaningful smile at him but didn’t stop his pace as he walked past Deo.
Deo’s eyelids twitched even more violently. He could only let his irritation simmer silently; despite wanting to curse under his breath, he ultimately swallowed it down in defeat.
As the queue progressed, it was finally Deo's turn.
"Mr. Deo, how many bottles would you like to purchase?" the front desk staff asked with a polite smile, though internally they wore a puzzled expression.
It might have been a trick of the light, but Deo seemed to be biting his lip as if he were on the verge of tears. What kind of grievance was he suffering from?
Deo was completely oblivious to the front desk staff's gaze as he clenched his teeth and handed over his identification card. "Just give me one bottle."
At that moment, tears welled up in his heart. He knew he was in for it this time; he would have to swallow his pride and take it all in, especially since Yelai had brought back so much of the Bloody Mary's Heart's Blood!
Meanwhile, Yelai returned to the car. He handed a bottle of Bloody Mary's blood to both Yezi and Xianya.
Now flush with cash, he not only bought himself a few extra bottles but also ensured that Yezi and Xianya each had one more to drink. Additionally, he purchased an extra bottle to keep in stock for future trades; it could serve as a bargaining chip later on.
After all, Monthly Sequence Points and Sequence Potion were hard currency in this era.
"Go ahead and drink up; let's see how much you can improve," Yuan Youmeizi said, looking at Yelai and the others with unmasked curiosity. She was particularly interested in how much Yelai could enhance himself.
Without hesitation, Yelai and the others nodded and raised their bottles of Bloody Mary's blood, downing them in one go.
Among them, Yelai chugged like a champion, swiftly finishing one bottle after another.
