Universe Infinite Canteen

Chapter 466: Minor Frictions in the Office



The disciples of Hui De personally demonstrated the magical power of the hair growth cake, and all the diners present witnessed its effect.

The hair that grew out was not only dense and healthy, but it also worked regardless of age; anyone could use it.

Master Hui De observed people in their fifties and sixties experiencing a rebirth, sprouting new, shiny black hair. This promotional effect far surpassed that of top internet influencers.

Before he and his disciples had even left the restaurant, Ma Lu discovered that the orders in the backend had once again exploded.

Although the hair grown from the hair growth cake only lasted for twenty days, there was still a lot one could do in that time.

Some were planning to muster the courage to confess their longtime crushes, others had booked photographers to capture the moment of their fullest hair forever, and even internet influencers wanted to use the dramatic effects of the hair growth cake to promote their own hair care products...

In any case, the 150 servings of hair growth cake Ma Lu had prepared for the first day sold out within less than 20 minutes, and additionally, 700 game discs for Red Ridge were also distributed.

If there were no unexpected issues, this week Red Ridge should surpass ten thousand registered users, so the first skin should be expedited.

Ma Lu then contacted Baldy, who quickly provided several skin design options, inviting Ma Lu to choose at the studio.

All these skins were based on existing creatures from the Abyss, the advantage being that no new designs were needed, and they looked impressive as they were.

For instance, Ma Lu saw a golden bone dragon within them, over 20 meters in length, with vast wings and sharp fangs.

However, its size was clearly a bit too exaggerated; it felt like it would easily glitch when moving, since what the store sold was merely skins, changing only the visual effects on the screen.

Moreover, launching such a flashy golden bone dragon immediately seemed too soon; although it would probably sell incredibly well, it would make it difficult to sell skins afterwards. What else could they sell next, Lord Aisagon himself?

Thus, Ma Lu was somewhat cool about the position of the first skin, but not to the extent of being unapproachable.

He flipped through the project team's submitted folder, pausing on the last page.

"Hmm, this appearance is good, and it's humanoid too, but why isn't there any description?"

"Which one? Let me see," Baldy leaned in for a look, "Ah, isn't that the Blood Demon? I remember there are few Blood Demons in the Abyss, seems like Coconut Jelly is the only one within a thousand miles. Hey, wait, is that a photo of Coconut Jelly?"

Coconut Jelly was currently restocking game discs in the warehouse, loading a thousand discs into four large hemp bags, each weighing over three hundred pounds, which she easily carried in her hands.

Upon hearing this, she furrowed her brows, dropped her bags, and walked over.

Meanwhile, another Baldy in the room, Master Beigong Meng who was in charge of the skin design, his face suddenly turned pale, grabbed his coat, and tried to stealthily escape through the back door.

But his hand had just touched the doorknob when, in the next moment, it was pierced by a red bone spike.

The spike stabbed through his back and emerged from his chest; poor Master Beigong Meng ended up skewered like mutton on a spit, completely pierced through.

He was then hoisted mid-air, his entire body letting out agonizing screams.

The attacker, Coconut Jelly, had transformed into the creature from the photo, with a pair of sharp horns, limbs turned into bone spikes, and a body enveloped in flowing blood plasma.

"Can you explain why you have my photo in your hands?" asked Coconut Jelly in a cold voice.

"Ahh, it hurts, it hurts, I just snapped it spontaneously, I didn't mean to shoot you specifically. That day I was photographing a Purple Goblin, and Boss Baldy can vouch for me; he asked me to update the monster materials database."

Even though his suit was drenched in blood and his cheeks were contorted in pain, Beigong Meng still stubbornly argued.

"You hit so hard, woman, I told you it was just an accident, just an accident! Hahaha, we've been colleagues for so long, and I've always just seen you as a colleague. Can you stop fantasizing just because I'm handsome?"

Coconut Jelly ignored his words and dragged Beigong Meng to his workstation.

She opened the top two drawers, which only contained work documents related to Red Ridge.

Coconut Jelly then pulled at the bottom drawer, but found it was locked. However, this didn't deter her; she used another bone spur on her hand to split the desk in two.

Suddenly, hundreds of photographs spilled out from the drawer, all of them were of Coconut Jelly.

There were photos of Coconut Jelly in her Blood Demon state, and others in her human form, from various angles and locations.

Coconut Jelly also turned on Beigong Meng's computer, which was password-protected.

Today's Cute, who was watching the drama unfold, came closer and said, "Coconut Jelly."

"What?" Coconut Jelly replied, seething with rage.

"I just wanted to tell you, his computer password is 'Coconut Jelly'." After saying this, Today's Cute smirked at the skewered Beigong Meng.

Beigong Meng was already pale, trembling uncontrollably.

Coconut Jelly entered her name, and indeed, it unlocked the computer, where she found even more photos of herself in a hidden folder. Read exclusive adventures at My Virtual Library Empire

"No, listen to me, Jelly Jelly, I was framed, yes, I was framed!"

Beigong Meng kept struggling desperately, his creativity bursting in fear like never before at work.

But Coconut Jelly's response was simple; she just gently raised her other hand, and the next moment, the bone spur sliced Beigong Meng in half.

This was the first time Ma Lu had seen someone being bisected alive, his intestines and stomach tumbling out, turning the office instantly into an abattoir.

Meanwhile, Baldy and the other project team members appeared nonchalant, continuing to work and play games as usual.

Ma Lu remarked, "Boss Baldy, aren't you going to do something? If this continues, you're going to be short of one employee."

Baldy waved his hand dismissively, "No worries, it's fine. It's all in fun. In a team, there's bound to be friction. It's better to express it than to keep it bottled up. Besides, Coconut Jelly knows her limits."

Ma Lu glanced at Coconut Jelly, who was bathed in blood, and the now halved Beigong Meng, failing to comprehend what Baldy meant by 'knowing her limits.'

But Baldy had already clapped him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, it won't delay the skin's release next week.

"I really owe you a lot for these days; our game has been brought back from the dead. Going forward, we'll still need your guidance on our work.

"By the way, are you heading back to the shop to work later? Come on, I'll walk you downstairs. Hey, Brother Xiao Wei, clean this up."
