Is the person you sculpt as cute as me?

Instead - there was a girl who could be touched if he got a little closer.

"Okay, then when do we start?" the deer asked again, "or should we not start it yet?"

"Start now!"

“…Okay.”

Why did she sigh? Yu Man wanted to ask... but she had already put on the device, her finger on the start button.

Afraid of delay, Yu Man had to put it on hurriedly.

A blackened vision, a slight foreign body sensation—and almost no weight.

"About to press it, countdown——"

When the girls' voices changed from "three" to "zero", the feeling of being in the same beat drove their fingers.

They temporarily left the real world and arrived at the old world from the lively and warm bed of the Spring Festival.

……

Dirty, crawling with insects, accumulated dirt, and full of stench...

There were no windows—the door was shut.

The conditions in the rebels' dormitories were extremely harsh, but they were still able to accept them since they were used to it...living in the city wasn't much better anyway.

When they have finished their patrol work and it is time to rest, they will get together to chat and play board games made of stones.

Occasionally, people from other rooms would join them, and they wouldn’t refuse—but only after they knocked on the door.

Instead of suddenly appearing in pairs like this and scaring people.

"Hey, there are monsters."

"Huh...intruder?"

……

ps

(The status is still not very good, there may not be any updates later today)

048 There is indeed a punishment (only one update today)

Not long after, the dormitory door opened gently.

Those who walked out were no longer the people who lived here, but the hateful players.

"Shh." Yu Man observed his surroundings cautiously.

"The eel has shifty eyes, and it feels like a thief..."

"It's just stealing."

"Reasonable."

Obviously, during the time they were offline, no matter how angry the Black Tower's boss was, he ultimately gained nothing.

Their search operation has ended, and I'm afraid everyone is sulking, thinking that Yu Man and Xiao Lu have disappeared.

Therefore, this is the best time to escape.

There's no one on this floor...

They moved quickly and quietly, and were one step closer to a successful escape.

The next level——

"What should we do? There's a monster." As a front-line worker, the deer walking in front was shocked.

"How many?"

The two of them communicated by typing, which could even be considered cheating by the players.

"It looks like a patrol group."

Yu Man nodded, opened the map, and activated the teammate sharing function.

Because they had already walked through the entire black tower from bottom to top.

Now the detailed topographic map has been updated to the player's map data.

In other words, this makes it very convenient to punctuate and share tactical intentions with teammates.

"This floor is very close to the exit of the next floor, which is the most dangerous. I want to accumulate some magic power to create a mirror image to lure away the monsters."

"So, should I start slashing at this group of patrolling monsters first?"

"That's not necessary."

In addition to the top-level boss treasure chest, they actually gained another thing in this adventure.

Yu Man quietly took out the box from the treasure chest and told it not to make any noise.

Xiangxiang obeyed the order, immediately gritted his teeth, and entered the hidden state that the treasure chest monster is best at.

Yu Man knocked on it gently and said, "No, it's the box. You have to open your mouth. There's something I want inside."

“…” The treasure chest monster had no choice but to open its mouth, feeling a little aggrieved for some reason.

Their enchanted backpacks couldn't hold all their gains.

So most of it, including the gold coins, is actually in Xiangxiang's mouth.

As a fourth-level treasure chest monster, its storage function is actually very powerful.

So there's even room for an extra scarecrow.

He is the boss's assistant and the magician's half-life creation.

In other words, this thing actually has a very high status in the Black Tower.

Yu Man took it out and threw it into Xiaolu's hand.

"Look, there's a transplanted vocal organ in its throat. Cut it off first."

"Oh!"

The little deer was quite nimble and swift in his hands he slashed with his knife.

And then—unlike her frail self in real life, she is a tough traveler who has traversed the world, a user of a two-handed sword and full plate armor, possessing considerable physical strength.

Therefore, there was no need for the magician, who was as fragile in real life as in the game, to throw out the scarecrow as bait.

very smooth.

The scarecrow, which could only twist its body wildly and was unable to make any sound, attracted the patrolling monsters on the next floor and attracted all attention.

The patrolling rebels were alert and curious, trying to figure out what had happened to it, but it could not explain.

Taking advantage of this chaotic moment——

"Walk."

Just like logging into the game was synchronized, so were their footsteps at this moment.

And so, they reached the first floor—

It’s more lively than I imagined.

It’s actually dinner time.

A middle-aged woman wearing an apron is cooking.

Those who had finished get off work early were already enjoying a few drinks and chatting by the campfire while waiting. Others were inventorying their equipment and weapons, while veterans were even forcing newcomers to fight against wooden stakes in order to train more helpers.

It seemed that there was no room for them to escape.

Hiding behind the stairs, the deer was very nervous.

"Wow, aren't we in trouble."

"Alas, although it's very unethical...but this is the only way."

Yu Man had an idea - the inspiration came from the big pot meals in the cafeteria when she was in school.

What do people fear most at mealtime? They fear not having enough to eat, which would drive them crazy.

So... I'm sorry, you all won't have any food today.

Yu Man found the right time and position, rubbed his gloves, and released the "lively" skill towards the big pot on the stove.

As expected, the gloves wanted to find a companion for themselves, and they could even copy something like this...

Yu Man, startled even by himself, immediately got down to business. Despite his damaged magic power, he pulled himself together and began to operate the cauldron.

The mirror-image replica of the cauldron was tipped over onto the original cauldron.

Suddenly, both pots fell off the stove.

Accompanied by a loud noise that cannot be ignored, and with steaming and fragrant liquid flowing all over the ground.

"what?!"

"what?!"

"No, no... Don't do this."

Attracted by the sound, all those waiting for dinner looked over... and immediately fell into despair.

The heat from the pot dissipated into the air, making everyone feel a little warmer... but their hearts were extremely cold.

Looking at the kitchen that immediately became boiling, Yu Man muttered to himself that he had committed a sin.

It's rare that I have a full meal today, but I'm actually going to ruin other people's jobs, ah...

Thanks to this commotion, they successfully escaped from the Black Tower.

The world outside is covered with snowflakes.

Without saying a word, Xiaolu directly carried Yu Man on his shoulders and fled silently with the pair of crystal boots.

That's it—the package is safe.

……

The sense of security of returning to the main city is so sweet that even Yu Man, who has been playing games for many years, can experience it again and again.

There are more Chinese IDs - I think it’s because everyone has switched to sleep mode.

Those who celebrate the Spring Festival during the day embark on a journey to the old world at night.

Yu Man was happy to help the newbies. She had more than 20 sets of new equipment in her backpack. Although they were stained with blood, they should be very popular in the trading house.

In addition, the hundreds of enchanted backpacks she had made before can also help novices carry more gains.

Their first stop is of course the trading house.

Because Yu Man and Xiao Lu are teammates, they can stay in the same private room and use the same trading equipment.

"...This enchanted backpack, one gold coin per item on the trading floor?"

"Well, almost."

Xiaolu had checked at the trading house before, or rather, it was she who discovered this profit point.

Afterwards, she also helped Yu Man pack the materials for the backpack and witnessed the production process.

The cost of these things is less than thirty silver coins.

The exchange rate between gold coins and silver coins fluctuates slightly with the market conditions.

Almost all residents of the Old World use silver coins. The denomination of gold coins is too large. In addition, the taxes, handling fees, production fees, etc. in the main city are all collected in silver coins, so the consumption of silver coins is very large.

Therefore, gold coins circulate very little and are only used by players for large transactions.

The current exchange rate is about 400 coins to one coin.

Of course, whether it is silver coins or gold coins, the Old World has a large number of recycling methods to control the total amount of money in the hands of players.

But - in Xiaolu's eyes, Yu Man seemed to be the system that recycled currency.
