Delta: Who are you saying has suffered a loss of strength?

Chapter 253 Thor's Name

"Brother Shi Ding... Brother Shi Ding...!" Raven muttered to himself, but everyone in the room could hear him; he was doing it on purpose.

"This can't be fair. You report every bad thing I say to Geheros. Wasn't it me who reminded you about this? Why aren't you saying anything now?"

"You reminded me?" Han Che raised an eyebrow slightly, looking at Raven with a hint of teasing in his tone. "So, you know me pretty well, huh?"

"Just kidding! You, Raven, when it comes to people's hearts—" Raven straightened his chest, his right hand's five fingers clenched together, "you have it completely under your thumb!"

Han Che was amused and said to Shi Ding, "Alright, alright, you know what happened, that's enough. You haven't rested well either, hurry back."

"Yes!" Shi Ding responded, turned and left the office. He looked much better than yesterday, which meant he had finally resolved a knot in his heart.

"Why aren't you leaving yet?" Watching Shi Ding leave, Han Che turned to look at Raven, his face falling again.

"What are you saying! What are you saying!" Only Raven and Han Che were left in the room. Raven didn't stand on ceremony and plopped down on the sofa, crossing his legs.

The toes of his shoes wobbled twice in the air, and his two arms stretched out, resting on the back of the sofa.

"I still have something to ask you! Why didn't you tell me about this strange operation? If I mess things up, you'll blame me." Raven pouted, somewhat dissatisfied.

"I'm afraid you'll cause trouble!" Han Che said irritably.

"Tch! Absolutely no trust!" Raven scoffed. "So what the hell were you up to? Our fight gave me quite a fright; I thought only this many players were this strong!"

"Didn't you already guess? Why are you asking me?" Han Che said irritably. "It's alright, you've got some conscience. You left Shi Ding a chance to breathe and didn't kill him. Otherwise, I would have really settled the score with you!" He tapped his fingers on the table a few times.

"Heh," Raven sneered, curling his lip, "I'd rather kill you than kill Shi Ding. I've been in prison before. Shi Ding really scares me, and my few hammer soldiers, I don't know why, are particularly obedient to him."

Mentioning the hammer soldiers, Han Che suddenly remembered the names Raven had mentioned during their battle and asked, "Did you name your hammer soldiers?"

"Roar!" Raven nodded proudly. "Impressive, right? Many of your prison guards have names, and a few of them are clamoring for me to come up with one too."

"King Kong, Bronze Bull, Iron Bear, Wooden Horse! Not bad, right!"

"It suits their style quite well," Han Che nodded in comment, "but everyone else uses gold, silver, bronze, and iron, why did you make a wooden horse? Compared to the others, it doesn't seem very imposing."

"Ah! Trojan Horse, you know him!" Raven's eyes lit up at the mention of this person, a smile playing on her lips.

"It's that guy who impersonated me to trick you! When that guy impersonated me, his marksmanship was terrible! He didn't even get a headshot! So I named him Trojan Horse, hahaha, he doesn't even know what that means yet, don't tell him!" Raven held up a finger to his lips, grinning from ear to ear as he mentioned the name.

"Now that this is over, you should give me some trust, right? You didn't tell me anything at the beginning, and even when we ended up fighting like that, I didn't back you up. That's giving you face, isn't it?" Raven smugly hummed.

"If you need my help later, I won't charge you extra; just bring me back lots of good food!"

Raven glanced at Han Che's expression. "What's wrong? Why are you staring at me?"

"I almost forgot! My collection room! You did it, didn't you!" Han Che said through gritted teeth, recalling how Qi Yuhao mocked him for being an honest official that day.

"Uh..." Raven gave an awkward laugh, "It wasn't really me, it was my Four Heavenly Kings who did it, it has nothing to do with me! Haha, if you have a grudge, you can seek revenge on them."

"Are you kidding me? You think those four would run to my collection room on their own without your orders?" Han Che roared.

"Hey! You can't say that. Didn't I also help you clean up the dirt and prevent the players from noticing anything amiss? You should be thanking me!" Raven suddenly realized and said with a smile.

"How did you know?" Han Che asked, puzzled. He hadn't intended to tell him.

"Heh heh, do you think I'm stupid? I passed by your window before I hid there, and the safety locks inside were all off. How could I not guess?"

"From that way? Just passing by?" Han Che pointed in the direction of the collection room, his tone rising. "Are you probably going on a detour to see if there's anything else to eat?"

"Tsk! Don't try to mislead a gentleman with your petty mind!" Raven's voice was deliberately louder to cover up his guilty conscience.

"Fine, objectively speaking, you did help me solve a problem, so I won't hold you responsible this time."

"But how did you let four Hammer Bros in? My room has a security gate." Han Che asked in confusion.

"Access control?" Raven raised an eyebrow, pulled a card from his pocket, and waved it in the air. "You mean this? I can make one for you in a minute."

Han Che took the card; it was the same replica card that Qi Yuhao had touched from the warden's collection room.

"You made this?" Han Che asked in shock and disbelief.

"Yeah! Absolutely!" the raven said smugly. "If we can't really make one, making a fake one is a piece of cake, isn't it?"

"So that's why there are so many counterfeit Tide Prison cards appearing in the player world! It's all your doing!" Han Che roared.

"Hey~ making money is nothing to be ashamed of!" Raven was getting a little carried away.

"Make money? Make whose money?" Han Che didn't understand what Raven meant by making money.

"Huh? Did I say I was going to make money? You must have misheard me. Where am I supposed to make money in prison?" Raven sat up straight on the sofa and denied it outright.

Before Han Che could continue, Raven immediately changed the subject, "What are you planning to do next? We should keep an eye on those strange players that Dayong mentioned."

"Hmm... I've been thinking about that too." Han Che nodded.

"Yes, yes, it's best not to let there be too many of these people, otherwise the losses to our battle will be too great."

Han Che nodded in agreement, then fell into thought.

Seeing that the topic had been successfully changed, Raven quickly got up and said, "Hey, Old Ge, you must be really tired. You should rest first. I'm going back now!" He then ran towards the gate.

"I'm leaving now, so go ahead and fight if you want! Don't suppress your feelings! You need to relax sometimes, be careful not to let the stress get too high and cause your cortisol levels to spike!"

The raven's smug voice disappeared outside the door with the sound of the door closing, giving Han Che no chance to retort.

Han Che's tense face actually broke into a smile. He didn't feel offended at all; on the contrary, he felt a sense of warmth.

"You're such a chatterbox!" Han Che chuckled and scolded, then lay back in his chair, finally having time to take a nap.
