It's a hell game, who can still be a human being?

Chapter 328: Scholar with Double A in Strength and Speed

".I always feel that you smile with ill intentions."

Liu Zhengxu said with his eyes fixed.

"That's because you have a guilty conscience."

The Ama replied calmly.

"Tsk. Here, one for each person, and don't snatch it."

He took out three portions from the takeaway box.

"Don't worry, no one except stupid bats will take advantage of this."

Nightingale took the opportunity to hack the little vampire again.

"How dare you, a poor bastard who can only afford potatoes, say such things?"

Liu Zheng looked at her with contempt.

"Humph, sooner or later, I will take back my own property."

Nightingale said confidently.

"And order a potato family bucket meal?"

Liu Zheng teased.

"Of course not. To celebrate the great victory, I'm going to order a full Liu Zheng banquet."

Nightingale's eyes wandered over him and she licked her tongue.

"Then you should eat potatoes. My bones are too hard and I'm afraid they will hurt you."

Liu Zheng rolled his eyes.

The four of them finished their coffee and dessert noisily.

"Come on, if you have any tough job, come to me."

He acted passionately.

"Hard work? Oh, I see. You think the difficulty is not high enough. Then I'll change a module for you. No player has ever completed that module since it was released."

The mermaid acted as if something suddenly dawned on her.

"Ahem, forget it. I'm not a competitive person. I'd better let someone else take this first-class opportunity."

Liu Zheng decisively admitted his mistake.

"Tsk, man. Let's go."

The Ama got up and walked towards the second floor.

"Come on Liu Zheng!"

The little vampire cheered him on by waving his little fists.

"Don't add any more. Drinking too much lead will make you stupid."

Liu Zheng pulled her little fangs, sighed and followed the mermaid.

Everyone dislikes him for being a troublemaker. Is it him who likes to be a troublemaker? It is obvious that the troubles are the ones who like to be troublesome to him.

Going up to the second floor, there were fewer doors this time, only one.

A twisted pentagram was engraved on the heavy stone door, and in the middle of the pentagram was a symbol that looked like both an eye and a flame.

For some reason, Liu Zheng felt a little nauseous, and this feeling of nausea seemed familiar.

"what is this?"

he asked, pointing at the symbol on the stone door.

"I do not know either."

The Ama shook her head.

"However, many Families and people like you who have Familiar blood will feel uncomfortable seeing this symbol."

She said.

"Then it should be okay for me to go in, right?"

Liu Zheng asked cautiously.

"It's okay, I just feel uncomfortable, there's no real harm. I've received many guests from the Familia, and they didn't suffer any adverse consequences other than complaining about the poor environment."

Said the Ama.

“What kind of negative consequence is it to complain about a bad environment?”

Even if it is, that would be a negative consequence for the board game hall, right?
"Of course it counts. We at the board game hall will never tolerate such unreasonable complaints!"

The Ama said indignantly.

“So what’s the outcome?”

He had a bad feeling.

"Of course, we deal with the customers who complained."

The Ama said proudly.

"really."

Liu Zheng chuckled.

Given the style of the Metropolitans and the Red Devil, this result was not at all unexpected to him.

"How come there are still people coming to play with you guys? Aren't they all the grudges like me who were blackmailed?"

Liu Zheng complained.

"It's not like we don't accept all negative reviews. We will also humbly correct reasonable negative reviews, okay?"

The Ama defended the board game parlor.

"for example?"

"For example, last time a guest gave a negative review saying the script was too simple, so we immediately modified the script according to his requirements and invited him to play for free."

The Ama replied.

"The results of it?"

"The result, of course, is that he will never give a bad review again."

"Very good, now it has a bit of the style of our bloody restaurant."

He applauded in encouragement.

"That's nothing compared to your Bloody Restaurant. You can force everyone in Metropolis to deliver food, but we just cooperate with the City Hall and let them provide some free players."

The Ama said modestly.

"Free players? Is it that players come to play for free, or that players are allowed to play for free?"

Liu Zheng raised his eyebrows.

"Business confidential, no comment."

The Ama stretched out a finger and shook it.

"hehe."

Now that things have come to this, do I still need her to tell me?

"You've played a role-playing game before, right?"

The Ama asked.

"I've played it before, but I didn't know the rules were different."

He nodded.

"Please simply repeat the rules you know."

Said the Ama.

So Liu Zheng explained the group rules he knew.

"Almost the same, but yours is an advanced rule. The group we're running this time uses the elementary rule, which is much simpler."

The Ama said after hearing this.

"Then why did you say this copy is difficult?"

"Just because the rules are simple doesn't mean this group is simple. You'll know later."

"But I still want to confirm, do you really want to play this book?"

Said the Ama.

"If I don't play, will your boss let me go?"

He asked rhetorically.

"will not."

The Ama replied immediately.

"That's it. Don't worry, I won't die."

Liu Zheng comforted.

"Who cares whether you live or die?"

The Ama gave him a look of disdain.

"Oh. Okay, then you can go to the garbage disposal plant by yourself."

"Hey, you promised to go with me."

The Ama glared.

"How can I accompany you if I'm dead?"

"You just said you couldn't die."

"It's not my say whether I live or die. Besides, even if I break my promise and die, what can you do to me?"

Liu Zheng looks like a scoundrel.

"Not really. I think that old guy likes you very much. It would be nice to make you into an inflatable doll with both your soul and flesh and give it to him."

The Ama sneered.

"Fuck, you're the wicked woman."

He said with a look of shock.

He originally thought that the mermaids should be purer than the nightingales, but he didn't expect that they were just as obscene.

"Hmph, I'll let you talk dirty all day long."

The mermaid curled her lips.

"That can't be helped. If I don't say something mean, my anger disorder will kick in. It's all about seeking death, and I think dying meanly is more fun."

Liu Zheng shrugged.

"Alright, alright, I know you're the meanest. Go in."

The Ama pointed at the stone gate and said, "Aren't you going to tell me the rules?"

he wondered.

"You have already played the advanced version. The beginner version won't be difficult for you. I will explain it to you while you play."

Said the Ama.

"Ok."

As Liu Zheng said this, he was about to step forward and push the stone door.

"Have fun later, try to get the perfect ending, and become MVP. The rewards for this module are very generous."

The Ama woman reminded quietly.

“I didn’t intend to give up.”

As he spoke, he stepped into the stone gate.

Entering the stone gate, there is only endless white light in front of you.

There is no front or back, no left or right, no up or down.

"Welcome to the Red Witch Girl Board Game Hall. The module used in this game is "Strange Sea Demon Ship."

The voice of the Ama woman rang out.

"Because of the accidental death of player No. 2, this group has been closed. Now, we have finally found a replacement player. I hope all players can play well and strive to complete the group without any injuries."

"I have questions."

Another voice sounded.

"Player 3, please speak."

"I doubt whether the newcomer has the ability to take over from player No. 2."

said the voice.

"Seconded."

"Seconded."

Two other voices rang out.

"The identity of Player 2 is very critical. His performance determines our survival. The contract we signed stipulates that we cannot be unable to pass the game due to the problems of the board game hall. Therefore, we need the host to prove that he has the ability to take over Player 2."

Player 3 said.

"Seconded."

"Seconded."

Players 1 and 4 said.

"How do you want me to prove it?"

The Ama asked.

"Provide his customs clearance records, or other real information that can be disclosed."

Player 3 said.

"Reasonable."

"Reasonable."

Players 1 and 4 echoed.

"Okay. Player 2 has won the Werewolf Royale game and reached the Blasphemous Ending."

Nightingale had no choice but to say.

“Not enough.”

Player 3 said.

"Seconded."

"Seconded."

The three of them are all experts in board games, otherwise they would not have been asked by the Red Witch Board Game Hall to play this module.

Of course, the difficulty of this dungeon still made them feel dizzy, especially after Player No. 2 messed up the situation.

In fact, Player 2 is the worst among them.

But it dared to think and act, and the car's character card was compatible with this module, so it became the key player in this group run.

When they learned that Player 2 had died in real life, causing the group to close the game, the other three players were actually very happy because they felt that it was unlikely that they would be able to clear the game.

As a result, a new player suddenly appeared to take over. The other three players now wish they could chop this young man into small pieces and throw them into the sewer to feed the fish.

"He also works for a well-known metropolitan company and serves as a key business leader. He has rich experience and excellent communication skills, and is particularly good at integrating resources and building personal connections."

The Ama said again.

Liu Zheng felt that her tone was a bit weird.

“Not enough.”

"Seconded."

"Seconded."

The other three players still failed.

While these advantages are nice, they are not very useful for the role played by Player 2.

"I've said enough. Are you the host or am I the host?"

The mermaid roared angrily, and waves of sound appeared in the void.

"If I say he's worthy, then he is. If anyone has any objections, play a game of Beast Chess with me first!"

Although he couldn't see it, Liu Zheng could still imagine her with her hands on her hips and a hawk-like look in her mind.

"I have an opinion."

A voice rang out.

"What are you doing?"

When the Ama heard it was him, she said unhappily.

"I just want to know what Beast Chess is?"

Liu Zheng said with a smile.

"Beast chess, of course, means you turn yourself into a beast and fight on the chessboard."

The Ama explained.

"Oh, I see. If you join the game yourself, you're halfway to victory, right?"

"What? You want to play with me?"

The Ama asked in a bad tone.

"No, I will listen to you, host."

He immediately raised his hands in surrender, not caring whether the haenyeo could see it or not.

"Who else has an opinion?"

The Ama didn't bother to pay attention to him and shouted again.

No one spoke, and there was total silence in the void.

"Then even if you all second the motion, I declare that this game will begin. The role cards will be distributed below. Please check them carefully. If you have any questions, please ask them immediately. After the game starts, the role cards cannot be corrected."

After the Ama finished speaking, a virtual portrait appeared in front of Liu Zheng, and next to the portrait was a glowing panel.

"Name: Wozki Shuode."

"Age: 31 years old."

"Occupation: Cultist"

“Trait: Reckless (You always act without thinking, and tend to use your intuition more than your brain)”

"Background: You were born in the country of Rus in the far north, where the climate is cold and the environment is harsh. In order to survive, the people of Rus are often brave and aggressive, and like to communicate with strong liquor and fists."

"As a true Russian, you are as reckless and violent as your compatriots. But unlike your peers who like to wield swords, you prefer to learn knowledge."

"You firmly believe that war and blood cannot bring warm land and abundant food to the Russians."

"Finally one day, you received an oracle from a book that recorded the sacrificial rituals of a remote tribe."

"The unspoken spirit allows you to gain knowledge, and every time you gain new knowledge, you are closer to it."

"For this reason, you left your hometown and embarked on an adventurous journey."

"You firmly believe that one day you will obtain all the knowledge in this world, and then the god will come to you and teach you the true secrets of the world."

“And Ross’s path to redemption lies within this.”

Good guy, a scumbag Christian who is determined to save the country and the people, likes to learn knowledge but has a reckless personality.

The beginning of this character card already exudes a sense of evil.

Liu Zheng curled his lips and continued reading.

"Strength: 5 (top level among ordinary people)"

"Agility: 5 (top level among ordinary people)"

"Intelligence: 1 (extremely low among the average person)"

"Charm: 1 (extremely low among ordinary people)"

"Skills mastered: Combat, brute strength, stealth, precision, athleticism."

"Okay, okay, you're a scholar with A's in both strength and speed, right? You didn't choose any skills related to knowledge."

He couldn't help but complain.

"Stamina: 7/7"

"Rationality: 1/10"

My goodness, my rationality has bottomed out right away. This is going crazy.

No wonder other players don't want him to join. Just based on this logic, it would be good enough if he led the team to pass the level and didn't wipe out the whole team himself.

So this role is crucial, is this the key?

If Liu Zheng wants to win, should he commit suicide as soon as he enters the game?
He shook his head and continued reading.

"Item: Fragments of the Black Book."

“The Fragment of the Black Book (bound): According to legend, this book was written by the evil god himself, and contains countless terrifying evil spells and rituals. Those who hold it will often become addicted to its power and be led towards the path of darkness.”

"Because the character's intelligence is too low and the characteristics do not match, the Black Book Fragment cannot show its true power. Pay the rationality value and there is a chance to obtain the special skills contained in the Black Book Fragment."

"The key you are talking about is not this book, right?"

He asked with a strange look on his face.
