You've been ruined by games all your life!

Chapter 64 Life is coming soon
"Boss, what do you sell?" Chen Lai asked knowingly.

The penguin's eyes were deeply sunken, and its entire body was emaciated, showing extreme weakness. If this were a short video from a previous life, the comments would probably be full of "Don't die in my phone."

The boss's ID is also very fitting: "My days are numbered."

He reached out, knocked the talisman off the cutting board, and handed it to Chen to look at.

[Tiger Talisman (Unique) (1/12): A magical talisman that harmonizes Yin and Yang and combines various powers. Value: 12000000 yuan]

The Tiger Talisman from Jackie Chan Adventures? That's exactly what he wants. It's a buff item that doesn't take up a deck slot, which is perfect for him.

"How do you want to sell it?" Chen Lai handed the talisman back to [Life is Short], but he didn't take it back, not because he didn't want to, but because he was too weak.

A friend request popped up suddenly; it was from someone named "[Life is Short]" who wanted to add him, and Chen accepted.

[My days are numbered: As you can see, my days are numbered.]

[I'm dying: I'm a fantasy student. I can't talk to you face-to-face because I'm about to die and I'm too tired to move.]

[My days are numbered: You want the Tiger Amulet? Buying it is like buying my life. You must help me prolong my life!]

[Life is Short] is a pretty talkative player, but he can't speak because the side effects of the ability base he received when he first entered the dungeon were too great.

According to his description, the first dungeon he entered was called the "Egyptian Temple," where he gained the ability to exchange his lifespan for good fortune.

He was naturally very excited to gain the ability for the first time! He seamlessly transitioned to another instance, and since the penguin's lifespan was used up, what was there to be afraid of?
Thus, before even receiving his "Admission Notice to the Vinegar Academy," he seamlessly entered the next instance, [Xiao Yu's Adventure Diary].

Having gained new abilities, he immediately gambled away his entire lifespan in exchange for incredible luck within the dungeon!

So, in Chinatown, in a dark, damp alleyway infested with snakes, insects, and rats, a Buddha statue fell from the sky, and behind the statue was hidden the Tiger Amulet.

Excited, he immediately printed the book with a large red envelope, but at that young age he did not understand that every gift of fate comes with a price.

After publishing the book, he originally intended to sell the Tiger Talisman immediately so that he would be set for life in the next life. However, he received an admission notice from the Vinegar Academy, from which he learned the truth about the Deep Sea Game.

Upon learning the truth, [Life is Short] felt like the sky had fallen. He left the instance and suddenly realized that he had aged terribly. His ability [Fate] had taken effect!

"Damn it, who would want a fate like this?!"

From that day on, the Deep Sea Players lost a young penguin and gained an old one. He was no longer seen in the Great Whirlpool, leaving only the lonely penguin boss in the Gold Exchange.

"This is a bit tragic, isn't it?" Chen Lai grinned. This guy was really unlucky. He thought he could use his lifespan in the game to his heart's content, so he went all in on his lifespan in the dungeon. When he came out of the dungeon, he found that he was already old and toothless.

[My life is nearing its end: I've been waiting here for a month. The doctor says I only have one month left. If we can't find the only thing that can extend my life...]

After reading what "[Life is Short]" said, Chen Lai completely understood. No wonder the "Tiger Talisman" couldn't be sold; this guy was asking for too high a price.

The Tiger Talisman is essentially a compatibility system; most players don't need compatibility at all, only those like Chen Lai with conflicting abilities do. "Let me look around some dungeons. There are plenty of unique items and abilities that can extend lifespan in dungeons; I should be able to find some for you."

Chen Lai looked at the thin penguin in front of him and said seriously.

[Life is nearing its end]'s eyes twitched, and then a flood of Q coins burst out of the chat interface, all of them going into Chen Lai's pocket.

A whopping 500,000 Q coins! It seems that [Life is Short] really did spend all his money on this, otherwise where would he get so much money?

[My days are numbered: I know you, Great Dragon, I've watched every single one of your games... If anyone can help me, it's you, Timur, the Doge of Venice, Ryota, you super players have the best chance.]

Chen Lai understood the implied meaning of "not long for this world": he wasn't expecting anything in return for the money, and he was going to die in a month, so there was no point in keeping it.

"I will definitely come back to get this Tiger Talisman within a month at most."

Chen Lai looked at the 500,000 Q coins in his account and solemnly spoke to the penguin in front of him.

The weak penguin nodded almost imperceptibly, indicating that it understood, and then reverted to its original inanimate form, with a spirit ring appearing on its head at any moment.

Emerging from the Deep Sea Gold Exchange, Chen Lai let out a long sigh of relief. He had now witnessed another side of Deep Sea Games... Some abilities don't always bring happiness to players; they can also lead to the pain of exhaustion.

The first dungeon, in particular, is like the first button in life. If it's buttoned crookedly, you'll keep making mistakes along the way. Those students from the Vinegar Academy with furrowed brows are probably doing so for this reason.

In this light, the abilities I possess are already top-tier. Even disregarding the conflicts between Heaven and Curse, and Six Eyes, strengthening just one of them would yield results far superior to those of ordinary players.

Shaking his black and white penguin head, Chen Lai opened the Deep Sea Forum and his friends interface. He saw that [The Absolute Ferocious Tiger of the Auditorium] was in the game, as were Zhang Long and Qing Bing.

Then he started browsing the Deep Sea Forum, wanting to see what new whirlpools had appeared and which old ones had disappeared... Deep Sea collisions are always like this.

[The Demon of the Abyss], [The Interplay of Sun and Moon], [The Jobless Reincarnation], [The Buried Hibiscus King], [The Spider]...

These aren't exactly new, but compared to dungeons like [Ninja Era], [2077], and [Great Voyage], which have been drastically altered by players, the above are dungeons with low exploration levels and relatively low player participation.

Next, you need to select a dungeon, and find the unique items and abilities that have the effect of "infinite life" or "life extension" from these dungeons.

After browsing through the streams of several players who were streaming the game, Chen checked the situation of the worlds [Sun and Moon Intertwined] and [Ruined Abyss Ghost]. It was pretty much as he had guessed: the players there had below-average combat power and were still exploring, unable to get into the main storyline.

However, if Chen Lai is not mistaken, the story of "[Sun and Moon Intertwined]" is a renamed version of the Chinese animation "[Sun and Moon in the Same Mistake]". The combat power in this world is beyond imagination, with three timelines running in parallel, and each time point has heaven-defying combat power.

Among them, the one who impressed Chen Lai the most was probably "Immortal Lord of the Myriad Laws of the Eternal World" Jiang Mingzi.

If you don't carefully consider this kind of book, buying the war supplies and entering it is like throwing money away. The Immortal Lord of the Myriad Laws of the World will never allow players to arbitrarily change cause and effect or the timeline... Of course, there are things that can prolong life in this kind of cultivation book, but that is exactly what Jiang Mingzi wants to eliminate.

Therefore, if you can't choose one, you should find a dungeon that you can complete quickly and that allows you to maximize your benefits with a simple setup.

　I'm asking for your monthly votes and to keep reading, brothers! It's back to the style of the first dungeon, please support me!
