The most important aspect of a scam is not its mystery or precision, but rather the arousal of greed in people’s hearts.
A person whose eyes are blinded by greed will convince themselves to believe in a scam, even if it is full of flaws or even laughable.
Whoever succumbs to greed becomes the prey trapped in the trap.
“How about it? Do you think this amount is enough?”
Money emits an enticing aura, and its appearance instantly disrupts the situation.
The roles of hunter and prey are reversed.
“Of course!! Of course it’s enough!” Minoki exclaimed in excitement, his voice becoming hoarse, but immediately regretted it.
Oops… too excited. I need to stabilize Bai Liu.
He quickly tried to smooth things over, laughing, “Wow, Bai Liu, I never expected you to be such a hidden gem.”
He reached out to put his arm around Lu Mo’s shoulder, “It seems like you’re going to make a fortune this time! By investing so many chips, you’ll receive three times the returns and become a super-rich person in an instant!”
“Just one thing…” Minoki lowered his voice and said, “We need to deduct a small processing fee, just 5% of the principal. What do you think?”
Of course, this statement was also false.
By pretending to negotiate and bargain with the other party, they created an atmosphere of “the deal has already been settled, we’re just discussing the details.”
The other party might have been hesitant about joining the game, but unconsciously, their focus shifted to negotiating the details of the price.
At the same time, it increased their own credibility. It was simply perfect!
But in reality, the processing fee was not just 5%…
They would pocket the entire 156 million!
Under the nervous gaze of Minoki and the fake Lu Mo, the real Lu Mo showed a friendly smile. “Of course, why not? Without you, where would I find such a great opportunity to get rich?”
With those words, the two male zergs finally let out a sigh of relief. The progress of the matter was unbelievably smooth.
They laughed heartily, one pouring wine for Lu Mo and the other offering cigarettes, their flattering words never-ending.
“Bai Liu, I have never seen a magnanimous male zerg like you,” Minoki raised his thumb, “You will surely achieve great things in the future!”
“Indeed!” The fake Lu Mo widened his eyes, “Even as a wealthy male zerg, I can’t compare to your grandeur and effortless manner.”
Minoki raised his thumb, “Magnanimous, truly magnanimous!”
Lu Mo humbly said, “You flatter me.”
The fake Lu Mo’s gaze kept wandering over the bank card, reluctant to part with it. He stuck out his tongue and licked his plump lips, about to take the bank card. “Time is of the essence, let’s process the formalities right away.”
However, just as he was about to take the bank card, a slender, fair finger pressed on the other end of the card.
The fake Lu Mo’s face stiffened and asked, “Bai Liu, what are you doing…”
“Just wait a moment.”
Lu Mo pressed the bank card with his index finger, pulling it back towards himself bit by bit. He said meaningfully, “I have already proven my ability to you, but you have yet to prove to me that you are indeed Lu Mo.”
In the dim light, he sat on the chair as if he were a gambler holding the winning hand.
“…” The fake Lu Mo angrily exclaimed, “You… I considered you my friend, and that’s why I treated you sincerely. But now you doubt me?”
He suddenly stood up, as if about to leave with a flick of his sleeves. “There’s no need to continue this business. You don’t have sincerity, Minoki, let’s go!”
“No, no, no!!”
Minoki hurriedly held onto his companion, wearing a apologetic smile. “Bai Liu didn’t mean it that way. He speaks his mind, but Lord Lu Mo, please forgive him this once for my sake.”
After saying that, he made repeated eye contact with Lu Mo, signaling him to say something.
This was the so-called “one plays the good guy, the other plays the bad guy” routine. It was their old trick.
After performing this play, it was guaranteed that the other party would not only dispel their doubts but also trust them even more due to their guilt. As expected, this trick worked once again.
“I didn’t mean it that way. Why would I doubt you?” Lu Mo gasped for breath, sounding frightened. “You are indeed Lord Lu Mo, there’s no doubt about it. It’s just that…”
He sighed and continued, “You don’t know, I have always admired Lord Lu Mo and have always wanted to see your style.”
He clasped his hands together and lowered his head, “Please let me witness your magnificence!”
Please! Teach me how to accumulate the most scum value in the shortest time, become filthy rich overnight, and reach the pinnacle of life—please teach me!
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
His attitude was sincere, immediately gaining the trust of the two male zergs.

Here it comes! It’s finally happening!
The fake Lu Mo snapped his fingers, and a nearby female zerg, who had opened the door for them earlier, immediately approached.
Lu Mo recognized this female zerg. he was the one with the timid expression, easily recognizable in this gambling den.
The female zerg held a bottle of red wine in his hands. Skillfully, he removed the cork and aimed the bottle at the glass.
As the red liquid was about to fill the glass…
A hand suddenly pressed against his neck, and with a loud “snap,” he was forced down onto the glass!
“Open your mouth,” the male zerg commanded coldly, “and protrude your fangs.”
The female zerg’s face twisted in pain, but he obediently opened his mouth, his sharp teeth pressing against the rim of the glass.
The male zerg curved his finger, pressing down forcefully on a certain spot on the female zerg’s neck, causing him to let out a low groan. At the same time, two transparent droplets slowly dripped from his sharp teeth, mixing into the red wine along the rim.
Lu Mo raised an eyebrow, “What are you doing?”
The male zerg released his hand, and the female zerg, pale-faced, sank weakly to the ground.
“Bai Liu, don’t be fooled by this seemingly obedient female zerg. He’s an 【Eerie Tribe】 female zerg with bloodline talent,” Minoki explained.
Lu Mo: “…”
The system timely added, [The Eerie Tribe is the only zerg species that can use toxins in battle. What’s most special is that the females of this tribe can produce the most potent toxins.
In history, the Eerie Tribe once ruled over the entire zerg species with their deadly toxins. It was a period of extreme terror and darkness.
Combined with the residual fear of the toxin from their natural enemy—the small black zergs in the zerg bloodline—the Eerie Tribe became a representation of evil, the lowest and most despicable existence within the zerg species.]
So that’s how it is!
The fake Lu Mo gently swirled the wine glass, mixing the liquid with the deadly toxin. He said, “Although this female is not a pure-blood Eerie zerg, the amount in this glass is enough to kill an A-rank female.”
Lu Mo’s eyes brightened. “You mean—”
In an instant, various scenes flashed through his mind.
In the pitch-black night, flashes of lightning and thunder tore through the sky, illuminating a dilapidated ancient castle on the edge of a cliff.
Whenever the lightning cut through the sky, it would cast a reflection on the castle’s windows, revealing the figure of a tall, slender, and sinister presence.
This figure extended their arms and laughed to the sky.
“Destroy the world!!”
“Hahaha—”
“Hahahaha—”
The fake Lu Mo laughed heartily. “That’s right!”
He grabbed the female zerg’s clothes, and he was already limp—after all, he wasn’t a pure-blood Eerie zerg, and he was on the verge of unconsciousness from being forced to release so much toxin. In the next moment, the male zerg pressed the glass against his mouth and forcibly made him drink it!
The liquid overflowed from the female zerg’s mouth, flowing down his slender neck and wetting his collar.
He looked like a stranded and struggling fish.
Until all the liquid was gone, the male zerg threw away the glass and proudly said, “This poison isn’t pleasant for him either.”
As they watched the female zerg clutching his own neck, writhing in pain on the ground, the male zerg discreetly glanced at Bai Liu.
The male zerg with black hair wore black sunglasses and revealed a cold and stern expression on the lower half of his face. He looked at everything before him as if he were watching a boring farce.
At this moment, the male zerg’s heart suddenly skipped a beat as he locked eyes with Minoki.
They were both low-ranking male zergs who, relying solely on their own abilities, couldn’t attract high-ranking females or accumulate more wealth, which led them down the path of deceit.
They had deceived many females and even high-ranking male zergs, but this was the first time they had encountered a male zerg like this.
Seemingly harmless and easy to deceive, but at some point, they would reveal an unfathomable aura…
The male zerg with black hair extended his hand and tapped the table. “Is that all? Is this what you call a shocking style?”
“…”
In an instant, the temptation of 156 million swept through the minds of the two male zergs once again.
“Of course not!” Minoki gritted his teeth and said fiercely, “If you think that’s all Lord Lu Mo is capable of, then you’re gravely mistaken!”
He smiled and said, “Consider this a preview. I’ll let you in on a little secret!”
“Tonight, we will perform a show in this gambling den.”
“The content of the show is… dissecting this female zerg and extracting his venom gland to make it a specimen!”
“Of course,” Minoki looked at Lu Mo, “without any anesthesia.”
How about that? Are you satisfied now?
However, to their surprise, the face of this male zerg didn’t show the expression of “admiration, joy, and respect.” Instead, it became even colder.
“You truly disappoint me.”
The two male zergs couldn’t believe their ears and questioned, “What did you say?”
“I said, you truly disappoint me.” Lu Mo stood up slowly, looking down on them condescendingly, sneering, “So this is what you call ruthless? Don’t make me laugh.”
“You fear him yourselves and had to join forces to remove his venom gland. Then you proudly think you’ve won. In my eyes, you’re just a group of clowns.”
Minoki widened his eyes in disbelief. “You, you—”
“What’s wrong with using toxins?” Lu Mo placed his hands on the table, leaning closer to the male zerg, his voice gentle and dreamy. “Just a small amount of toxin is enough to kill an A-rank female. Is there anything more wonderful than that?”
The male zerg’s pupils trembled, fear causing his entire body to tremble, his teeth grinding. “You… this is… outrageous…”
“Outrageous?” Lu Mo curled his lips, mocking, “But you’re Lu Mo, right? How about it? Don’t you agree with my perspective?”
The male zerg was frightened.
In the zerg society, there were many consensuses that should never be overstepped or violated. For example, the Eerie Tribe was absolute evil, and they should be eradicated. How could there be zergs praising them?
The male zerg felt nauseous, his stomach churning, almost causing him to vomit. He forced out, “You… you’re simply a lunatic.”
“In my eyes, you’re just a bunch of incompetents.” Lu Mo squatted down, looking at the female zerg.
The female zerg struggled to breathe, hid eardrums buzzing, everything around him becoming hazy. But amidst the chaos, he heard a deep voice.
“You truly are a precious treasure.”
Even after enduring such agony, the female zerg curled up, but upon hearing those words, he felt an immense sense of grievance welling up in hid heart.
This grievance surged fiercely, breaking through everything and finally formed into scorching tears that fell from his eyes.
He opened his eyes wide, trying hard to see the male zerg’s face. “Am… am I truly not a disaster?”
Even his older brother had never said that he was a treasure.
“Of course,” Lu Mo patted his head. “I envy you so much. Many zergs fear you and are afraid of you… sigh…”
If only he had that kind of constitution, he would have completed the mission and returned home three years ago! Damn it! He gently brushed the side of the female’s cheek with his warm palm, closed his eyes, and felt so happy.
But even though he felt so happy, tears wouldn’t stop flowing, and he sobbed softly.
“Thank you…”
“…”
Lu Mo abruptly withdrew his hand and cursed inwardly.
[Ding, received sincere gratitude, deducted 100 scum value!]
[Ding, made outrageous comments, added 100 scum value!]
[Ding, earned the respect of the zerg tribe in their hearts, deducted 1,000 scum value!]
[Ding, touched the bottom line of the zerg tribe society, added 1,000 scum value!]
Lu Mo lifted his head sharply, his eyes hidden behind the sunglasses scanning the surrounding crowd fiercely.
If I find anyone secretly praising me, I’ll expose them, and they’ll be doomed!
Ah, why won’t these ten points add up? So frustrating!
In a corner not far away.
Ling leaned against the wall, eagerly watching everything before him.
When he saw the pale and varied faces of the surrounding zergs, he couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
How should he put it… Even he never knew what side of Lu Mo would be revealed.
Every time, he thought he understood Lu Mo’s thoughts, but every time, Lu Mo would refresh his understanding.
Ling raised a finger, and a small black bug crawled out of his sleeve and stood on his fingertip, fluttering its wings and wiggling its antennae.
“What should I do?”
Ling tilted his head, sighed with distress, and said, “He really likes toxins.”
“He will really like you.”
The little bug twirled on his fingertip, looking extremely smug.
It seemed to say, [Are you going to fall out of favor?]
Ling swiftly closed his hand, retracting the little bug, and said annoyed, “Don’t even think about it.”
Lu Mo’s favorite would undoubtedly be himself.
Ling covered his face with a pat and let out a deep sigh.
What on earth was he thinking?
That was merely a primitive zerg that couldn’t even be considered an zerg tribe… At most, it could only be considered a pet, and it was even the natural enemy of the zerg tribe.
When did he become so temperamental?
He needed to calm down, be more mature, himself.
Having exchanged the chips, Ling took a step forward, about to approach Lu Mo when a figure brushed past him.
The exquisite dealer turned his face, whispering, “You should leave here quickly.”
Ling looked at him, “Why?”
The dealer closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said, “This is just a scam. You will only lose all your money and won’t get a penny.”
He whispered, “Consider it a reminder for the sake of your lord saving my brother. Listen or not, it’s up to you.”
After speaking, he walked straight ahead.
Ling raised an eyebrow, watching the dealer’s figure and thoughtfully grinding his teeth.
Indeed, he guessed it right. Something was definitely happening.
The killing intent emanating from the dealer was already overflowing.
Fortunately, he had exchanged the chips!
If he hadn’t brought back the 300,000…
Tsk, tsk, tsk.
Ling shook his head. If he hadn’t brought back the 300,000, he didn’t know how long his proud and noble master would be angry and depressed.
Thinking that, he leisurely approached Lu Mo and asked, “How’s the deal going?”
Lu Mo looked at Ling with disappointment and lack of interest. “I had a harmonious and friendly exchange with the esteemed Lord Lu Mo. I admire him very much, so I decided to place a bet.”
“Ugh—”
The fake Lu Mo covered his mouth, his chubby face covered in sweat.
Hearing such outrageous words for the first time, and especially due to the terrifying aura emanating from Lu Mo, he couldn’t bear it any longer.
He stood up, stumbled, and pushed Minoki aside as he ran toward the restroom not far away.
Lu Mo insincerely said, “May the mother zerg bless him.”
Ling nodded.
He remembered that the dealer had also gone to the restroom.
