Is the person you sculpt as cute as me?

142. Six and Seven Flowers

In Kagoshima City, commercial and residential houses with two floors can be seen everywhere.

There was a slight movement in the always silent room.

“——Ah…” It was a sigh from a girl with complicated emotions.

Along with this, there is the rubbing sound when taking off the gaming equipment, announcing the return to real society.

She rubbed her cloudy, slightly bloodshot eyes and looked at the ceiling blankly.

There should have been band posters there, but the room was always so dark that she could only see vague outlines.

"……so good."

But unlike the gloomy environment, the girl was in a better mood than ever.

She dragged her heavy, stiff, and weak body and got up from the messy bed.

Reluctantly, she reached out and pulled open the heavy curtains that were always closed. A ray of light from the street came in, allowing her to tell whether it was day or night.

"Magic lamp..."

She reached for the air with her free hand, but there was nothing there.

The biting sense of reality made her nauseous, but her stomach woke up and sent the howl of hunger throughout the girl's body.

"Alas... why do people need to eat?"

Every meal is an expense and means deeper debt, but there is nothing we can do about it.

She turned on the desk lamp, closed her eyes, and lay on the silk-like mat made of her black hair, taking a long time to adapt to the change in light.

"Something good happened today... so... let's be a little extravagant."

She squinted her eyes, took out her cell phone and sent a message.

After a while, the wooden building with poor sound insulation began to creak, which meant that the parents who were working hard downstairs received the news.

A little sense of guilt lingered in the girl's heart, but more of it was the joy of eating something delicious.

But what occupies my heart more is the story of another world.

"I met... the legendary eel... the great god."

After editing the post, there is another insignificant trace of someone's existence in the vast ocean of social platforms.

How long had this been going on? Totally escaping into that world... endlessly ignoring reality?

It didn’t take long, just over a month.

Compared to wasting a year since taking a leave of absence, indulging in games in another world is ultimately beautiful.

And the reality of suffering—different.

I was playing with my phone aimlessly when I heard footsteps at the door.

The girl held her breath and listened carefully to the footsteps leaving - going downstairs.

Only then did he feel at ease to open the door and take in the hot pizza box.

The table was covered with miscellaneous items, and she reluctantly pushed them aside, trying to give the rare delicacy some dignity.

"Celebrating...meeting the Eel God."

She took a photo to keep a memory of this delicious meal that she might never have again.

Then, he gathered the empty drink bottles, the garbage, the volcanic ash helmets the government gave him in elementary school, the half-drunk bottles of green juice, the vitamin pill bottles he relied on for survival—

After covering all of these with thick mosaics, she added some text and posted a new message on the social platform.

Start by dry-swallowing two multivitamins on an empty stomach - this seems to aid absorption.

Next, tear off the crispy, soft, wheat-flavored pizza edges and eat them bit by bit.

The remaining cheese, sausage slices, bacon, cherry tomatoes and green peppers...these wonderful main ingredients are finally ready to be enjoyed.

"As expected of the strongest player in a great nation... a top-tier efficiency chef. He even saw through my humanity and flaws... and even my dignity was ruthlessly crushed - how beautiful, this is how it should be."

The heat and freshly baked deliciousness linger in the mouth, but the soul and heart are still nourished by the experience in the game.

She, the player with the game ID Liutongqihua, is actually a girl with a very twisted mind.

Because the family was suddenly burdened with a large debt, the family quarrels were always tormenting her physically and mentally, so that she was unable to continue her studies.

Because I was too young, I could only help out in the shop at home.

However, her dignity was shattered by a classmate who heard the news from somewhere and came to her spontaneously to try to help her...

A junior high school girl is so delicate and sensitive that she can't even handle things tactfully.

Although she knew her classmates were well-intentioned, she could not bear the contradictions of reality.

The result was that he had to stay in the room on the second floor, acting as that shameful termite, leading a gloomy life with no distinction between day and night.

Her family didn't blame her for anything, only offering bitter apologies, because it was their problems that led to the debt and everyone's predicament. Unable to cope with the weight of reality, she could only do what many others did... escape online.

but--

Not nothing good happened during that wasted year.

She accidentally found out about something called Bilibili.

On the video website of this neighboring country, many rich people hold raffles every day.

Just click to forward, follow, like, or leave a message - maybe the opportunity will come.

As if it was fate's guidance, among the countless script robots and huge number of forwarding people, she actually won a few times.

The latest mobile phones, electronic devices, cash...

Initially, she was apprehensive and used Google Translate to reluctantly explain that she was a foreigner. However, the wealthy man from a big country still paid for the international shipping without a problem, or found various ways to transfer the money to her.

Those gifts from heaven, which could be described as exaggerated to her, undoubtedly saved her life.

Thanks to this incredible income, she was able to continue her life like a human being without adding any burden to her family.

Since then——

She has been working frantically to teach herself Chinese and English, and has begun to develop a convert-like fervor.

The hypocrisy and politeness of her country always seemed disgusting to her. All those long, complicated honorifics and entanglements were no match for the four Chinese characters she had once heard.

"Don't worry, shipping is free."

Such a miracle happened again two months ago.

As always, with endless gratitude, she participated in raffles on various platforms and supported those generous and kind people by watching, liking, and donating coins as much as possible. These interesting things really enriched her vision and life.

And then—she won again.

A mysterious electronic product produced by an unknown and never-heard-of company, about which no information can be found.

It was supposedly a "totally immersive gaming device, with the complete Dead and Rise of the Old World content included," but no one had any idea what it was.

It is worth thousands of RMB and looks like a more advanced VR headset.

Even the IT video host who organized the lucky draw couldn't explain what it was, and only said it was a monthly sweep of new products.

As always, generous free shipping - delivered.

It wasn't until a few days before the game was launched that the internet went viral, saying that this thing was incredibly subversive.

And it is indeed for the girl - no.

For the six and seven flowers huddled in this narrow room, a vast new world opened up.

There - on the island where she was born, she possessed the fragrance of the entire spring.

Like most players, Liutong Qihua knew about Eel and Jiandui Lulu and knew that they were the strongest players so far.

And because they are Chinese players, Liutongqihua has an additional layer of different feelings.

If you team up with them, it will definitely be different from those hypocritical people who can only chatter non-stop or are just sarcastic and awkward.

Efficiently extract all benefits, no matter what means, as long as it works, use them. Once there's profit, then enjoy the game for real. Climb to the top with precision, even if the journey is dirty, so what? This is exactly what she longs for.

This distorted vision and misunderstanding soon manifested itself in her gaming style. No matter who her teammates were, she would be unhappy if they played poorly or were slow to act, and she also needed to vent the accumulated bitterness from reality.

She became an unlikable teammate—but so what?

After finishing the last piece of pizza, Liu Tongqi Hua looked out at the night sky with gratitude.

Now, I have met the most admired eel god!

Just as I imagined—just as I imagined! No, it was beyond my imagination.

Although he was rejected this time, the Eel God did not close the door.

Instead, he pointed out his shortcomings directly and efficiently.

Once she overcomes the girl's overly fragile heart and hardens it, she will go to Shimla Bakken to apply to join the team again.

By then, no matter what kind of dirty insults the Eel God uses, I will definitely be able to withstand it.

She cleaned up the mess and prepared to return to the old world.

But the night in reality is still worth her attention for a few more seconds.

She thought to herself—

If one day, I can make money by relying on this unprecedented game and reverse the cruelty of reality.

At that time-

Just be the one who gives back, like those wealthy people, and save someone's life.

……

The eel himself, who is admired by others but knows nothing about it.

Now he has a worried look on his face.

"Hey, I'm a little scared, Xiangxiang. I have a feeling something bad will be summoned... or should I just forget it?"

"Employer, why are you being so hesitant like a little girl..." Xiang Xiang had been with her and Xiao Lu for a long time, and his speaking style had become much the same as hers.

But Yu Man was indeed hesitant - the intuition of a top PVE player was squeaking strangely.

She prepared eighth-level weapons and a huge amount of magic power from the island.

I just want to summon something that can be used as a trump card to enhance my combat effectiveness.

Now she is in a stage called "building a combat style", which means that her soul weapon is ready, her specialization is maxed out, and she has a foundation of gold coins and equipment.

In this case, players often have a core skill.

Next, you need to collect a variety of skills and build a set of combat styles around the core skills that can enhance each other.

Yu Man’s core skill is undoubtedly “saving time”.

She had already forged an ice spear and had simply tested the basic idea.

That is, use powerful one-time skills and consumables, then use them again quickly by resetting them with "Saving Time".

This idea is very powerful, and Yu Man thinks there is nothing wrong with it.

Now that the Mage Tower and the territory are on track, and there are good sacrifices, maybe she can get something from the reflection of the old world, so she is ready to summon.

However, an ominous sign quietly arose.

An upside-down rainbow bridge, dyed a dark reverse color, is swaying above the island.

143. Tears of Searching and Recording

In the unfinished, unceilinged wizard tower—

Yu Man looked up at the sky, and so did Xiang Xiang.

"Employer, are you familiar with this...celestial phenomenon?"
