Chapter 64 Short Circuit

A few minutes had gone by, and Shi Tian was utterly speechless to realize the refrigerator had been short-circuited.

He had attempted to plug the refrigerator into another electric wall outlet, but it still didn\'t work.

After that, he tried to charge his Cellos device with the same wall outlet and it worked perfectly fine. With that said, it meant the short circuit came from the refrigerator itself and not the electric wall outlet.

"Serve him right to be killed by the Crimson Mage. Even his home appliances are full of faulty stuff. How terrible must his luck be?" Shi Tian clicked his tongue and commented.

Even though he was using all the home appliances from the previous tenant, Shi Tian was completely heartless and felt no empathy for his fate.

His death wasn\'t caused or related to him, so why should he suffer the consequence that he failed to buy a proper refrigerator?

"There goes my plan in trying to cook some food from the previous tenant. Now I have to go outside and get it myself." Shi Tian sighed and pushed the refrigerator back to its original place.

To fix it, he would need some tools and possibly a new electronic board, so even if he knew how to troubleshoot, he doesn\'t have the material at the moment.

Not to mention, his satiety was lowering by the minute, especially with the time he wasted trying to troubleshoot.

It was a good thing that he still had plenty of Eons left. Source Crystal was a precious item and most wealthy people value Source Crystal over Eons.

However, for the poor or business owners, they would gladly accept Eons as payment. After all, they are still currencies that have value.

Tidying up himself properly, Shi Tian left the apartment complex and headed to an area that was bustling with people, looking for a decent restaurant or some food stall.

As he strolled around the street, Shi Tian saw a lot of food stalls, but the food wasn\'t something he had seen before.

Maybe it was because the world had basically gone to crap and there are no more farmers that would raise cows for meat, but the food staple was a totally different thing.

What made it worse was the fact that Shi Tian saw some Armored Rats being served as a delicacy, and people actually bought them to eat it.

It made him shiver at the sight of others eating the Armored Rat happily because it reminded him of his experience. The flesh was tough and extremely gamey- to the point that he wanted to vomit it right out but had no choice but to consume it.

And because of his unnatural response, Shi Tian\'s action caused some of the people in the street to look at him as if he was crazy.

"What is wrong with him?"

"Who knows? Maybe he\'s a beggar and wanted some Armored Rat\'s meat?"

"Beggar? Look at his right arm first before calling him a beggar. Those mechanical parts look fancy and should have cost more than what you earn in 3 months."

"Meh, then he probably went crazy after coming back from the wilderness. It\'s not like those aren\'t uncommon."

The people soon ignored Shi Tian\'s presence and went back to their own business, not bothered by Shi Tian\'s unsightly action.

And of course, Shi Tian could hear them very clearly but didn\'t bother to correct himself or explain his action. There wasn\'t a point, and all he wanted to do right now was escape from that particular food stall.

Unknowingly, Shi Tian had wandered off to someplace quiet, away from the bustling crowd of people.

By the time he realized he had trailed off from the crowd, he attempted to turn around and leave, only to hear a shout coming from afar.

\'Another dumb cliche plot?\' Shi Tian quickly thought to himself.

When he was exploring a mechanical store at a shopping mall, he realized a scheme from a certain arrogant young miss, and when he went to Optic Mech, he saw an arrogant prick demanding to see Isaac Aaronax.

And now that he was trying to find some food to buy, he had somehow wandered off the crowd and heard some shouting.

Just how many of these scenarios was he going to encounter?

From the shouting voice, Shi Tian could distinctively tell it was a female.

"Aiyah, but what does the voice being a female or male have to do with me?" Shi Tian chuckled softly and shrugged his shoulders.

He turned around and walked the opposite way of where the scream originated from.

He wasn\'t some hero nor does he have the time to rescue every supposed damsel in distress. This kind of role could be reserved for the dumb men that wished to become a protagonist or some white knight.

His stomach was constantly growling, so who would help feed him?

No one!

Absolutely not a single person would come forward and offer him some free food. And even if there was, Shi Tian would still not eat it because who knows if the person that offered him such free food was nefarious?

"I should just go find a restaurant and have some proper and decent-looking food instead of looking at a food stall." Shi Tian mumbled, rubbing his stomach wondering which restaurant was good to eat.

Just when Shi Tian walked a few steps forward, he heard a powerful blast emitting from behind.

"..."

For some reason, Shi Tian paused his footsteps suddenly because he felt a bad premonition incoming.

"Don\'t tell me that female is going to crash down right in front of me? If so, then I better back away so as not to get collided." Shi Tian then retreated a few steps.

And sure enough, a few seconds later, he saw a flying shadow figure in the sky that was crashing down real fast.

BOOM!

The flying shadow figure crashed just a few meters ahead of Shi Tian, creating a somewhat large crater.

Seeing the large crater and the crash impact, there was only one thought in his mind.

\'She\'s dead, right?\'
