As the night passed, the players were still talking about the results of Nessun Dorma and Jiangshanxiao, and they also speculated whether they would have a grudge with Li Rong because of this. Some people felt that their clearance time far exceeded the world's fire, and they were still sitting tight. After winning the first place, there is something wrong with the system's judgment method; but more people still insist on another view: no matter how long it takes, they can rescue almost all mission targets with the physical attributes of ordinary people, and escape intact. , which is enough to illustrate their strength and strategic level. Rumors, gossip, and disputes were flying all over the place for a while, but the fixed suite with only four people was still quiet.
Xie Yuanyuan bit his nails and glanced left and right without saying a word; Du Zijun held a burning lady's cigarette between his slender fingers, his face looming in the white peppermint mist; Wen Zheliu and He Qin sat across the table, keeping silent. Unanimous silence.
"...So." After a long time, Wen Zheliu said slowly, "We are not worrying in vain. Since the auction, everything has been moving forward according to the plan made by the Holy Sister."
He Qin said: "As I said last time - in addition to completely breaking away from the influence of Nova City, she also wants to let players fight among themselves and become more addicted to the game. It will open up the prop customization system, auctions, and open up the upper world. The path to the lower world, as well as the gimmicky ranking list, are all for this purpose: to gradually draw the attention of most people who rush to complete the game and go home to 'how to play this game well'."
"Moreover, the number of people playing the game is indeed gradually increasing." Wen Zheliu said, "In the fifth world, there are currently more than two million players who have passed the level. Is this possible?"
Du Zijun blew out a puff of smoke: "So, where did the extra players come from?"
"Logically speaking." He Qin emphasized his tone, "Logically speaking, n-star should have cut off the connection between the Uncanny Valley and Nova City as soon as the incident occurred. But there are always exceptions to everything. If the existing The firewall cannot stop the evolution speed of the Holy Nun, so the increasing number of players here should be forcibly pulled in from real life by her."
Xie Yuanyuan's shoulders trembled, feeling fear in his heart, and asked in a low voice: "What on earth is she doing, what does she want to do..."
"She is eroding the real world," Wen Zheliu replied. "She wants to surpass the creatures that created her and become the only god."
"Do you have any idea?" Du Zijun suddenly asked.
Wen Zheliu smiled bitterly and said, "I only have one very risky and very unstable method."
"Forget it, don't think so far ahead." He Qin pinched his eyebrows, "There is only one plot left that we know but have not experienced."
"Yes." Wen Zheliu nodded, "There is only one plot left where she loses her lover and we haven't finished it yet. The other three worlds are directions we don't understand at all."
"According to the timeline, the loss of the lover should be after..." Du Zijun shook off the ashes, "Well, it was after the experience in the concentration camp. But we are not yet sure whether the plot of the sixth world will follow us. Walk within the bounds of knowledge.”
"I hope so." Wen Zheliu sighed, but couldn't help but take out the weird reward book and read it, "Apart from this, there are still three worlds. The only thing we can do is to reach the ninth level as soon as possible. Then asked the Holy Sister to fulfill her promise."
As usual, Wen Zheliu went to the black market to exchange for an upgraded Marquis cane. The way to obtain the cane series is very special. He must return the earl's cane he is currently using to the merchant in order to exchange it for the upgraded weapon.
Item name: Marquis cane
Grade: a+
Activation type: Instant activation
Cooling time: none
Attack power: extremely high
Effect: This prop is a machine-type weapon and equipment. When the player turns the dark ring under the head of the cane, the tip of the cane will immediately pierce a 30-centimeter-long square pyramid-shaped platinum thorn, adding 1 second to the target of the thorn. It has a bleeding effect of 88% of the damage value, and has a 66% chance of causing the opponent to be stunned for up to 120 seconds, causing an additional 66% damage to unnatural creatures (including human body modifiers).
Note: In general, it can make NPCs feel intimidated to a great extent.
Equipment level: 45
Prop introduction: Remember nobility and virtue, remember the courage to face fate, don’t forget your straight and unyielding backbone, let it bloom in the wilderness full of roses as fragrant as blood.
This is not an illusion caused by Wen Zheliu. The length of the cane seems to have increased, and its shape has also been greatly changed. The carving of the deer head has been cut off from the end of the cane and replaced with simple patterns. The entire white gold cane body is as white as snow. Clean as jade. It is more like a work of art with simple and elegant lines than a weapon used to end one's life.
"It's so conspicuous..." Wen Zheliu looked at it carefully, "But it's still beautiful. It's very different from the original knight's cane. Alas, good things are just different."
"Why are you sighing?" He Qin also looked around casually in the store, but his arms were still holding Wen Zheliu's waist possessively, "It's like your brother won't buy you good things."
Wen Zheliu said: "Why do I want you to buy it for me? I have it myself... I would like to expand my backpack and put more medicine in it, but unfortunately the system won't let me."
"What's missing?" He Qin asked.
Wen Zheliu counted with his fingers: "The wilderness survival gift box has been used up, so I need to replenish a few more; the total number of potions for physical strength, life and spirit is less than ten, so I have to buy them all again; as for the others Weapon maintenance fluid, armor maintenance fluid, odor blocking agent... all have to be purchased again. There are so many things to use, and the backpack is almost not enough... "
"Stupid," He Qin flicked the tip of his nose, "Can't we just bundle them into one bag? Who asked you to separate them all? Wait, I will pack them for you later."
At this time, I heard the wind chime ringing on the porch outside the door, and three people pushed open the door and walked towards inside.
"Excuse me -" Wen Zheliu drew out his voice hesitantly, "In principle, when trading A-level related props, shouldn't the trading place temporarily not allow other customers to enter and exit? Why now..."
"Don't rush to blame the store," the visitor stood opposite, taking off his camouflage mask, revealing a calm and handsome face, "Hello, Mr. He, Mr. Wen."
He Qin narrowed his leopard-like golden eyes and looked at the visitor calmly.
Li Rong, Li Tianyu, and a familiar woman, Ji Yuanfeng, the regimental deputy of Tianxia Huo.
Wen Zheliu was a little surprised.
"Captain Li, you..." After thinking about it, I felt that it was unlikely that they would come here to seek revenge because of a ranking matter, so I just assumed that they were also here for the exchange of A-level items, and said: "You are also here. Shopping? Then let’s first..."
"No," Li Rong flatly refused, "I'm just here to find you."
Wen Zheliu: "?"
He was just about to say that you don't comply with the system's rules when he saw Li Rong take out a roll of parchment from his arms.
The smell and appearance of the parchment are very similar to the rubbing fragments that Xie Yuanyuan once used. It is just that it is more intact and smooth than the rubbing fragments. The handwriting written with a quill on it is also neat and smooth, with a faint tinge. Golden light.
"In the past, Mr. He once obtained a scrap of rubbings at an auction that may have sealed S-level items. The scene at that time left a deep impression on many players and is unforgettable." He smiled politely, and Li Tianyu stood there Behind him, people didn't even dare to raise their eyes, let alone say hello to Wen Zheliu and the others. For some reason, Wen Zheliu looked at Li Rong and felt that something had changed about him.
"Afterwards, I kept looking for a roll of powerful props like this," Li Rong continued. "Fortunately, the underlying world is open, and the emperor paid off, and I finally found it."
Wen Zheliu couldn't help but said: "Oh... Oh, so, you are now?"
Li Rong smiled.
There was a faint dark blue under his eyes, as if it was the mark left by not sleeping well at night. His smile not only made Wen Zheliu feel a little tired, but also made Wen Zheliu feel a hint of gloom.

"You are also conducting transactions related to A-level props, so in order to see you, I specially brought it here as a qualification for NPC to dismantle it."
As he said that, he showed the level of the parchment. Hearing that Zheliu was shocked, the level of the rubbing fragment of a mere summoning item was only E, but this one actually reached the terrifying A level!
He Qin raised his eyebrows, a playful look flashing in his eyes.
Interesting, Wen Zheliu heard him say in his heart.
"You, are you sure you want the npc to dismantle it?" He calmed down, Wen Zheliu didn't think that after spending such a high price, Li Rong came to them and could do good things.
"Confirmed." Li Rong said, "The range for summoning props is from a to s+. No matter what props are removed, I think it doesn't matter, it's just you."
He Qin asked: "What happened to us?"
"I've been paying attention to you since the first level of being trapped in the Uncanny Valley." Li Rong said, "You are an unknown player. Even the team was temporarily formed later, and there are only four people in it... The Sun of Wisdom, The world's supreme blade, the ruthless female gunner, and... Alas, the remaining person, I still can't remember his name or his appearance. I can only vaguely understand it through other people's interactions with him. Recalling some fragmentary memories is like a ball of air."
"But these four people have surpassed all the established teams at an unprecedented speed and become the uncrowned king of the Uncanny Valley." Li Rong shook his head and sighed, "...the uncrowned king who has surpassed all the fires in the world."
Wen Zheliu always felt that this development was not good, so he hurriedly said: "Wait a minute, Captain Li..."
"... We only achieved first place once," Li Rong's smile remained unchanged, but Li Tianyu trembled, "Five worlds, you defended the title four times. This is not the result of one city, but of millions of worlds. The results added together are the results of millions of people.”
"So?" He Qin hugged Wen Zheliu from behind, sucking in the vigorous and warm breath from his body, as if he was lazy, but he could burst into a man-eating beast at any time, "What do you mean?"
"In the next world, please accept the challenge of the world's fire." Li Rong's smile was firm. Wen Zheliu opened his eyes wide, feeling that he saw dangerous stubbornness on his face. He finally understood what was wrong. , "Regardless of other teams, we are one-on-one to let each other see each other's strength."
He Qin was listless, and his peach blossom eyes drooped in boredom: "I'm sorry, there are still two of us who are not here, and the captain is not here, so I can't accept your letter of challenge yet."
"It's the tactics of the Fire of the World," Li Rong corrected without showing any anger at being ignored, "It doesn't matter, you will agree."
Li Tianyu finally turned his head and said tremblingly: "Brother..."
Ji Yuanfeng immediately pressed her shoulders. This strong, beautiful and hot woman was also known for her decisiveness in killing. When she pressed her, Li Tianyu immediately shut her mouth.
Wen Zheliu frowned. Although he didn't know what happened between the brother and sister, he could conclude that this must be an extremely unusual change.
"Why are you holding her down?" He looked at Ji Yuanfeng, "Can't she say what she wants to say?"
He looked at Li Tianyu again: "You are here, where is Chen Feiluan, is he okay?"
Ji Yuanfeng knew that they had fought side by side and had a life-long relationship, but she still looked back at Wen Zheliu with a smile that did not reach her eyes, and replied on Li Tianyu's behalf: "With all due respect, this is not something you should care about. , Mr. Wen.”
He Qin's eyes suddenly turned cold.
His beast-like eyes stared at Ji Yuanfeng's face. Ji Yuanfeng's fingers on Li Tianyu's shoulders suddenly trembled. For a moment, even if it was only a moment, her exposed skin felt as if it had been cut by a pervasive blade. , making her almost take a few steps back instinctively.
At this time, the wind chimes on the eaves sounded a gentle sound again, and two more people walked in from behind. They had never met before, and the sound came from behind.
"Miss Ji, I advise you to speak politely!"
Wen Zheliu's eyes suddenly lit up: "Bai... Captain Bai?!"
Bai Jingxing laughed heartily, and he was followed by Yu Hongyao, the leader of the Divine Creation whom he hadn't seen for a long time!
"And jade..."
Yu Hongyao wore a swaggering scarlet robe. She held a pipe in her mouth, and the smoke was like a veil, hiding her radiant face in and out: "No need to say hello."
Two heavyweights came at once, and Li Rong's face looked a little stiff. He said, "What are you..."
"Only you are allowed to come here to buy things, and we are not allowed to hang out?" Yu Hongyao looked bleak, and knocked the cigarette ashes next to her.
"I'm here to trade A-level items..."
"You are only allowed to have A-level props and not let us come?" Bai Jingxing couldn't help laughing, his fox eyes shone slyly behind his gold-rimmed glasses, "Brother, don't be too domineering."
Li Rong knew that now was no longer a good time to speak.
Following his signal, the NPC put the disassembled props into his hand. Li Rong whistled, his smile deepened, and he looked at the two people in front of him.
"I'm lucky today, but I'm also unlucky." He raised the box in his hand. "An opportunity to use props, S level."
"Of course," Li Rong lowered his voice, "I will wait for your answer. If you can accept this challenge, you can come."
