New Century Warriors

Chapter 6. Beware of Female Fan Traps

"When did a villa appear in this area?"

For five whole years, Lei Ye had lived in this city called Xilius and thought he knew it well enough. He never expected that there would be such a luxurious mansion in the abandoned land that he knew nothing about.

Calling it a mansion is an understatement; it's more like a castle, like the kind where Grey Wolf lives. If one person lived in such a big house, there would definitely be many empty rooms.

"Please come in."

"Sorry to bother you."

The moment Raino entered the gate, he felt a strong chill, as if he had stepped into the territory of some evil thing.

He shivered violently, turned around abruptly, only to find the door automatically closing.

Lei Ye forced down his unease and followed Ye Lei's footsteps. The magical lamps hanging overhead were very beautiful, but only a very weak light shone down. The castle had very few windows, so the entire interior of the castle was gloomy. He had the illusion that if he didn't keep up with the silver-haired woman in front of him, he would be swallowed up by the darkness behind him.

"Your house...is huge." Lei Ye felt uneasy and took the initiative to strike up a conversation with the man in the black coat in front of him.

"Hmm, it accidentally got too big and now it feels empty."

"You really live alone... why don't you hire some maids?"

"That kind of...I'm not good at sculpting."

Raino was taken aback. "So cute."

As Lei Ye walked up the gray stone staircase to the largest room on the fifth floor, he immediately recognized Ye Lei's professionalism as an engineer upon opening the door. All the tools in the room were far beyond his understanding of the technology tree in this world; she even actually had a machine tool.

He couldn't resist touching it, and the cold texture moved Lei Ye to tears.

The sweet scent of industry.

"Sit down, I'll teach you how to use it now."

"Oh, this is so embarrassing... How about I pay your tuition?" Lei Ye sat down, wondering how much money he should give her.

Ye Lei ignored Lei Ye and operated the machine on her own. She injected magic into a certain part of the machine tool, and then the machine tool twisted rapidly like a Transformer, which made Lei Ye exclaim "Holy crap!" and clap his hands vigorously.

The machine tool was finally fixed in the shape of a long table, and all the tools on it disappeared, leaving only a flat table. Just as Lei Ye was wondering how he was going to use this bare tabletop, something suddenly grabbed Lei Ye's feet.

Looking down, he saw a mechanical steel claw extending from the bottom of the machine tool, tightly binding Lei Ye's ankle.

"What...what does that mean?"

Realizing something was wrong, Lei Ye turned to look at Ye Lei.

It was that faint smile again.

Ye Lei moved closer and pressed her body against Lei Ye's back.

Despite the ambiguous gesture, perhaps because of the heavy black coat, Lei Ye only felt a chill.

He heard Ye Lei's somewhat gloomy whisper.

"Do you remember when was the last time you worked, my great writer?"

"I can't get any, I haven't taken on any commissions in a long time."

"This isn't the job."

What kind of job is that?

At first, Lei Ye didn't quite understand, but when he thought about how she addressed him, he suddenly realized what she was talking about.

Lei Ye remained silent.

In fact, he hasn't written a book in three months.

There was nothing he could do; writing a book was very hard work, and after not earning a penny for so long, he really couldn't keep going.

Two more things appeared on the table.

It was the same kind of paper that Lei Ye usually used for writing, and the same kind of simple-looking fountain pen, or some other kind of pen. Lei Ye drew on the paper, and it was hard to tell what kind of ink he used, but it was quite easy to use.

"What do you mean? You want me to write here?"

"Otherwise what?"

"Listen to me, my book lovers. I write books because I need money. If I had so much money now, why would I still be writing books? Do you think I'm stupid?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lei Ye saw Ye Lei, whose face had darkened, reach out to him and take the storage bag from Lei Ye's waist.

"Why!"

The royalties...were taken away.

Ye Lei tapped the table with her beautiful, slender fingers and coldly uttered a single word.

"Write."

After a moment of silence, Lei Ye shook his head.

He sighed again.

His feelings were somewhat complicated. On one hand, he was saddened by the fact that the other party had deceived him, but on the other hand, he thought that his female fans were truly devoted to him and had gone to such lengths for Xin Zhang.

But he still doesn't plan to write.

Just as he had thought before, he now had to focus his energy on defeating the Demon King and could no longer waste time writing.

On the other hand, and most importantly, I'm too lazy to write.

No, it's because the story he wanted to write was almost finished.

This is a habit Lei Ye developed because he is frequently banned. He never writes super long novels, not because he doesn't want to make money, but because he wants to finish his books before being killed by censorship.

Besides, writing too long makes it easy for the writing to fall apart, and Lei Ye didn't think he had the skill to control it.

Thinking this way, Lei Ye looked up at Ye Lei. He didn't say what he was thinking, but putting the pen he had just tried back on the table was his attitude. He wanted to see what Ye Lei would do next. Since she was really his female fan, she shouldn't hurt him.

Ok?

"Why!"

The moment Lei Ye saw Ye Lei pull a bottle of pink potion out of her storage bag, Lei Ye couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

In the River of the Forest, there lives a skilled alchemist who occasionally shares knowledge about potions with his teammates. It is said that all pink potions inevitably contain aphrodisiac ingredients.

What is this female fan trying to do?!

"Gulp... Ugh... Gulp..."

Amazing strength! Lei Ye never expected that delicate little hand could have such terrifying strength, far stronger than his teammate who was best at physical labor. Lei Ye felt as if his cheeks were being gripped tightly by a pair of pliers, and the medicine bottle was shoved directly into his throat, the icy liquid flowing into his stomach.

Lei Ye coughed violently, trying to vomit up the medicine, but unfortunately he had already swallowed it all.

"What did you feed me?"

"It's a pacemaker."

"Gulp... Ugh... Are you crazy?!" Raino tried even harder to vomit up the drug. "Why kill me this way? Giving this drug to someone whose heart hasn't stopped beating will kill me within five minutes!"

"Heart? What heart?"

"It's not the pacemaker drug you said you were talking about," Lei Ye said, startled. "Wait, did you pronounce it backwards?"

Ugh, the medicine is kicking in, it's so hot.

Lei Ye hugged himself in terror, thinking to himself, "I'm doomed, I've actually run into a female fan who's trying to assault me."

Could it be that the virginity he had protected for over twenty years was about to be lost here? Fortunately, this Miss Ye Lei was truly stunningly beautiful, so if she were to take it away, it wouldn't be that bad.

But something's not right... I did have a strong physiological reaction, but I didn't feel a strong sense of trust.

He then glanced at Ye Lei, who stepped forward... touched the machine tool, and infused it with magic.

"Um?"

Just then, Lei Ye heard a teeth-grinding scraping sound. Something was extending under the table, out of his sight, followed by the sound of metal spinning at high speed.

Looking down, I realized it was a chainsaw under the machine tool, right in front of my crotch.

"Why!!"

Lei Ye turned pale and screamed in terror.

He struggled and twisted, but the mechanical steel claws controlling his ankles remained unmoved. At the same time, he heard Ye Lei's whispers in his ear.

"Start writing. As long as you maintain a speed of two thousand words per hour, the spinning blades won't get close to you. But if you go below that speed, you'll be shredded."

After thinking for a moment, Ye Lei took off her little leather boots without expression and placed them on the table.

We got a little closer to the chainsaw.

"Why!!!"

That's not fair!

After repeatedly trying but finding no possibility of breaking free, Lei Ye grabbed a pen and paper and began to write furiously.

He kept writing, but the chainsaw below showed no signs of stopping. Lei Ye looked desperate and turned to look at Ye Lei.

"I'm writing it! Female fans, look at me! I'm writing it!!!"

"I'm watching closely. Don't think you can get away with just writing a few words."

Holy crap, how come there's human review in this other world where the currency is from?

I hate this thing the most.

But writing is not something you can force; it requires inspiration, you know. Especially since Lei Ye himself had almost forgotten the plot after such a long time, and suddenly he had to pick up a pen to continue writing, who could do that?

But even if you said that to a chainsaw that was slowly approaching while spinning wildly, it probably wouldn't listen.

We had no choice but to bite the bullet and go for it.

Lei Ye began writing while recalling the plot. He has currently written the fourth part, and in the ending plot, the protagonist's combat power has been maximized. In order to prevent the combat power system from collapsing in the fifth part, he must add a lot of new things.

Hey! Lei Ye raised a finger and then began to write furiously.

...When Kuang Xiaolei opened his eyes, he found himself reborn and transmigrated to the arena of the National Fortune Game. Fortunately, he had memories of his previous life and knew everything about the gods of the Frey Empire...

"Ughhhhh!"

"What are you writing! Rewrite it!"

"A chainsaw is one thing, but where did you pull that stun gun from? Stop shocking me! Ughhhhh!"

"Rewrite!"

It hurts so much...it hurts so much...

Why is this happening? I thought it was a yandere female fan forcing love, but it turns out there's only yandere, no yandere and no love.

Female fans are terrifying... Female fans are so scary...

I don't want any more female fans, please leave me alone.

Lei Ye struggled again, but he really couldn't break free no matter what. He finally gave up and shakily turned to a new page to start writing again.

The story picks up where the fourth installment left off. Ten years after the defeat of the evil god, the Frey Empire has seen rapid technological advancements. Magical artifacts are now commonplace, and game companies are springing up everywhere. However, the protagonist believes that the garbage games produced by these unscrupulous developers are simply rubbish. Therefore, he resolves to use his memories from another world to develop the world's best AAA game and dominate the battlefield...

"Ugh! Stop electrocuting me! I'm not writing anymore, stop electrocuting me!!!"

Damn it, you really are a veteran reader; you can't fool me at all.

Calm down, Lei Ye.

Lei Ye took a deep breath. Thanks to the two rounds of nonsense he had just talked about, he had already recalled the plot of his story.

Most authors have a habit of creating plot holes, regardless of whether they can fill them later. They just want to dig them out first, in case they need them later.

Well, here we are now.

Lei Ye picked up his pen again, using a plot hole he had randomly dug up before that he never filled in as the beginning to continue the story of the fifth volume. This time, Ye Lei, who was standing to the side, did nothing else but stand silently and watch.

Soon even the noise of the chainsaw gradually disappeared, and there was no longer any interference with Lei Ye's writing.

Lei Ye, having thoroughly enjoyed writing, let out a long sigh of relief. He glanced at his wristwatch and realized that four hours had already passed.

I'm not sure how much I've written during this period, but I'm certain that it hasn't reached a speed of 2,000 words per hour. After all, this is an alternate world where you can't type on a keyboard, so this is all I can manage with pure handwriting.

However, at some point, the chainsaw under the table and the steel claws binding his legs had disappeared, and on a table not far away, some steaming snacks and tea were laid out.

Lei Ye was indeed a bit hungry, but to be honest, he didn't dare to eat what Ye Lei had prepared. So he quietly took out the dry rations he had prepared for the long adventure from his storage bag and ate a few bites.

Just as Lei Ye was taking his second bite, Ye Lei returned, drying her wet hair. She looked like she had just taken a shower, and a pleasant fragrance wafted from her even before they got close, making people curious about what brand of shower gel she had used.

However, her makeup was truly indescribable; the disastrous makeup technique completely ruined her sculpted face.

Lei Ye dared not laugh. In the blink of an eye, Ye Lei was on his back again. This time, the sensation of her body, which was only wearing a bathrobe, was clearly felt on Lei Ye's back.

"Wow, that's what I was thinking. He had such a great figure hidden under that coat."

But she is not human. This is not a guess; Raiye has already come to the conclusion that she absolutely cannot be human.

Ye Lei first stretched out her slender arms to touch the machine tool and infuse it with magic, then placed her hands on Lei Ye's hands, like a couple kneading dough together.

The machine tool flipped over again, returning to its original state. It started operating with a clicking sound, and several materials were placed in front of Lei Ye by the robotic arm.

"This is a reward for your hard work," Ye Lei said with her comical face. "I'll teach you how to make storage bags and the Belisarius Furnace that you're interested in. It's a bit difficult, but I believe you'll learn it quickly."

After saying that, she really started teaching on her own.

Lei Ye was almost completely bewildered by her train of thought. From the beginning until now, everything Ye Lei had done seemed to be following a pre-arranged plan, yet it also had a captivating, unpredictable quality.

While waiting, Lei Ye wanted to think carefully about how to escape from here, but Ye Lei's lecture was really interesting, and Lei Ye was immediately engrossed in it.

She was surprisingly a good teacher. After realizing that Lei Ye had a certain level of self-study foundation, she started teaching him using Lei Ye's unorthodox methods. Her speaking speed was not fast, but every word was clear and concise. As for the actual content, Lei Ye felt like he had become a junior high school student learning a linear equation for the first time. Before learning it, he thought that this thing must be extremely difficult because it even had English, but after listening carefully and understanding it, he found that it was not as difficult as he had imagined.

First, when a monster dies, it drops magic stones containing magical power. These stones are like batteries, capable of outputting magical power, and can also be replenished with magical power by humans, just like a real battery.

After special processing, these magic stones will become energy sources with higher conversion efficiency.

The engineer's job is to further process these energy sources to continuously "release light magic" as magical lamps or continuously "release fire magic" as magical fireplaces.

This is the basics of magical item crafting; it's very simple.

And beyond that, more complex magical items require even more complex magic.

So at this point, Ye Lei actually started teaching magic. When she talked about making magical items, it was easy to understand, but when she talked about magic, Lei Ye couldn't quite understand. So he took a break and secretly fiddled with the watch on his wrist.

This is his only work.

Being unskilled doesn't mean lacking ability. To be honest, Lei Ye was quite confident in his watch. It was the only item he had seen in the past five years that could record the date and time accurately for an extended period. Lei Ye relied on it to determine how much time had passed since he transmigrated here. But that wasn't its true value. Otherwise, Lei Ye would have sold it long ago when the wealthy merchant raised the price to a large gold coin.

This piece is a pair; the other watch is on Loya's wrist.

Each watch can record the wearer's walking direction and number of steps by marking points, and then send the data to another watch. After the other watch is decompressed, the watch on the wrist becomes a simple wayfinding device. The minute hand indicates the direction, the second hand indicates the number of steps, and the hour hand is used to mark the possible danger level. Lei Ye hesitated for a moment, then set the danger level to the maximum and sent the message. Fortunately, he met Luo Ya on the street, and she could use that as a starting point to find her way here.

It's a stroke of luck amidst misfortune. The other watch is in Loya's hands. You know, elves are a race that is known for its high intelligence. I believe Loya will realize the seriousness of the problem and call over all the combat power of the Forest River, or go to other teams to hire a few mercenaries. He has a strange feeling that Ye Lei, who looks like a weak girl, is probably much more terrifying than he imagined.

"Did you understand?" Ye Lei's voice suddenly became stern.

"Mmm, I understand, I understand." Lei Ye hurriedly withdrew his wrist and nodded perfunctorily.

After a few seconds of silence, he heard Ye Lei let out a very soft sigh.

"Alright, a lot of things happened too suddenly today. I didn't consider your level of acceptance. I'm sorry. Let's move on to the next item."

She did indeed have her own plan; from the moment they met until now, everything had been premeditated.

But we still don't know what her ultimate goal is.

"What's the next item?" Raino asked.

Ye Lei brought her face closer and stared wide-eyed at her purplish-gray eyes.

"I'll take your virginity."
