Is the person you sculpt as cute as me?

"Leave them with a little regret. Imagine, there was a hidden quest right in front of them, but they didn't successfully trigger it. There will never be another chance to trigger it again... They'll remember it for a long time."

Yu Man is quite familiar with the players' behavioral logic and way of thinking, so he plans to teach the enemy a little lesson.

She took off the exclamation point made of ice and melted it.

But it has penetrated into the hearts of those players, deeper than death.

……

ps

(Today there is only one update, it has a lot of words, about the same as the usual two updates, I didn't know how to split it up so I posted it all at once.)

043·Appointment

Main city: Shimlabakken.

In addition to residential areas, trading areas, and warehouse areas, there is another place that feels like home to the players.

cemetery.

Dead players will be resurrected here.

First, use magic power to form a spirit body - see your own tombstone.

Then, the body was gradually shaped.

Whether it is a mouth that curses or a hand that regrets, it will take a while for it to grow back.

But now, a lot of them have grown at once.

"Holy shit, it's freezing, this is the fucking Northeast experience?"

"Damn, that's amazing. I'm convinced."

"If anyone asks me to deal with the Eel God again, I will block you..."

The resurrected players couldn't help but touch their bodies and heads.

Because the biting cold still accompanies the skin and bones in some form.

Captain Teng called it a "profound lesson."

as well as--

“What a fun experience.”

There was silence for a few seconds before the team members agreed.

"It's true."

"Indeed, I've never had anything so exciting."

"We became the eel god of gaming experience... but it was pretty cool."

From the very beginning, Brother Teng gave them psychological guidance.

People who have calmed down early on will not be resentful even if they die.

What's more, they received the money, and the boss was even willing to cover the damage.

"They have also been resurrected. Let's go and claim the battle damage."

"Let's go and scold the mentally retarded commander."

"Alas, I don't want to translate the curse words... so I'll just curse myself..."

"I've played a lot of Southeast Asian ladder, so I'm very familiar with swear words. I'm going to criticize them too."

“But they’re from Eastern Europe?”

"That's even more insulting..."

The cemetery soon became bustling with activity.

Blaming each other, refusing to pay, shouting and cursing, fighting, watching the show...

The players who were still undead a second ago, have forgotten death and continue with their daily lives that never change.

Killing time.

……

And inside the Black Tower - the winner also has his own troubles.

The backpack is full... filled with red envelopes.

Although they are all equipment for the dead, they are not red envelopes in the traditional sense.

But it was stained with blood and placed in a backpack—so it was about the same...

"It's a heavy burden, alas."

The enchantment backpack for one person was not enough, so Yu Man gave a lot to Xiaolu.

"Haha, we feel like corpse collectors, picking up a lot of junk."

"Tier 2 equipment isn't too shabby. A set can fetch two or three gold coins at the trading post... Hmm? And there's a set of Tier 3 assassin gear. So luxurious? Dual daggers... Wow, I'm going to make a fortune."

But——there was a little sweat on Yu Man’s forehead.

She felt scared.

If a more skilled person were to come, the situation might not be so good.

Even without specialization, an expert can at least replace her or the deer with just this set of equipment.

As long as the assassin can conceal himself well and seize the opportunity, with some potions and skills, he can be very powerful against players and can easily kill a fragile mage with one blow.

But since the equipment is here...it means he is not an expert.

Forget it, just ignore him.

"This is for you, Eel." As soon as the deer finished speaking, he threw a bottle of potion over.

A full bottle of second-level magic potion.

They were looted from the corpses of players and now they are also spoils of war, making them a bargain.

Yu Man took it in a panic, quickly pulled out the cork from the bottle, and started gurgling. Seeing that her magic power began to recover weakly, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Magical power damaged

This negative state is not part of acting.

Her equipment and her expertise are all at the top level among current players.

But even so, freezing such a large area of ​​water was still too much of a burden.

He had to use up all his magic potions and cast spells continuously despite suffering from "mana damage" to barely make it happen.

If you continue to use magic while your magic power is damaged, it will worsen.

Failure to replenish potions in time may even result in the mana being unable to recover, and can only be reversed by resetting it upon death.

Therefore, being able to seize a bottle of magic potion now may not save Man's life, but it can allow her to start recovering.

This also means that

"Do you want to try going up again?" Yu Man asked.

"Are you okay?"

"Well, this potion can remove the 'damaged magic power' and then recover naturally. It should be no problem to cast a few key spells."

Moreover, they actually have helpers in their team.

Yu Man released the box. It was a fourth-level treasure chest monster and still had some combat power.

"Now I am a nobody, please, Master Jiandui Lulu, take me to fly."

……

It can now be confirmed that no blind players will attack again.

Yu Man didn't want to miss such a good time to improve his specialization.

Unlike myself who is in poor condition, the deer is in full condition.

Leave the underground - return to the first floor.

Then... stepped onto the second floor.

This black tower is not as mysterious as it looks from the outside. It is actually where the rebels live.

The first floor is for cooking, meetings, chatting, and changing shifts.

During the day, most of the rebels would be patrolling or doing things outside, so it was relatively quiet inside.

Starting from the second floor, there is a large area that serves as the rebels' dormitory.

The living environment was stinking, dusty, and grimy. Rats and insects could freely crawl over the rebels' belongings. They had few personal possessions, so there was nothing for players to loot.

This may mean... that all the wealth created by the rebels is concentrated in one place.

On the road, you can occasionally see one or two groups of patrolling rebels.

Unlike the monsters in normal games, which are always fully armed and ready for battle at any time, these occasional enemies are very lazy.

Even... gave Xiaolu the impression that they might be on vacation?

……

It didn't take them long to clear the second floor, and they gained nothing except specialization points.

They stepped onto the third floor, hoping for better luck.

But the atmosphere was the opposite.

Depressing, narrow, and even disgusting.

Most importantly, it has a strange smell.

If you are a foreign player, it would be difficult to describe this weird taste, but it is different for Chinese players.

“It smells like the residue left after soaking Chinese medicine.”

"really."

In the first week, Yu Man smelled this scent for the first time and felt the same way.

But now she knew very well that the smell came from the magician's laboratory.

——This is not good news.

Those residents of the game world who choose the path of "magic" are slightly different from the player's "magician profession".

For players - "Mage profession? I want to play it!" This is the mentality of the general public.

But for this world, the existence that players call monsters, or NPCs—

Without exception, they all chose the path of magic in order to pursue some desire in their hearts.

Because this is the secret that can change reality and transform thoughts into truth with magic.

In order to achieve that wish, they often devote their entire lives and do their best.

Laboratories, workshops, altars...

They will build various fields and collect a large amount of complex materials to study magic and get one step closer to their ideals.

And this environment, known as the "magician's home court", is the most terrifying.

"——Hey, employer, it smells like the same thing, very strong."

At this time, Xiang Xiang's passive skill was activated, lightly biting Yu Man's calf, interrupting her thoughts.

Treasure Chest Master

As a treasure chest monster, it is born with a passive skill that allows it to slightly detect the location of the treasure chest.

It has no hands, but found a sword in its belly - a gift from the player.
