Wen Qing stood in the living room, stunned for a while, lowered her head, and slowly spread her five fingers.
A bronze key lay quietly in the palm of his hand.
The key is a little different from when it was in the dungeon. The mirror with the size of a fingernail on the top is now covered by a layer of white mist, making it impossible to see what's inside.
His fingers clearly touched the mirror, but there was still nothing abnormal.
Wen Qing paused with her fingertips, and poked the mirror again hesitantly.
A crisp sound.
The key didn't respond at all, like an ordinary key with exquisite workmanship.
Wen Qing stared at it for a while, then asked 001: [Can I bring this thing out?]
001 hummed.
Wen gently clutched the key and walked towards the sofa.
As soon as he sat down, he saw the holy grail on the coffee table.
Wen Qing wondered if this key would become a prop like the Holy Grail
He subconsciously pursed his lips, which were swollen and painful.
Wen Qing raised her hand and touched it, it seemed that the skin was a little broken.
He couldn't help replaying what Wen Jing said in his mind.
[Why did you only give me such a little time?]
[Qing Mingming will be able to see them in the future, so he should look at me more now.]
[I said, I will help gently.]
Wen Qing lowered her eyes and pondered, did Wen Jing pull him into the mirror to help him
But why
As his mirror, Wen Jing is obviously a bad guy.
He shouldn't have guessed wrong.
...
After thinking for a while, Wen Qing couldn't figure it out, couldn't help calling 001, and asked: [001, is Wen Jing helping me?]
001 hummed: [Because it's you.]
001 was quiet for a moment, and said to him: [He knew he couldn't keep you, so he helped you, said those words and did those things, but made you remember him.]
Wen Qing was surprised that 001 answered this question, and also surprised that Wen Jing was really helping her.
Knowing what he was thinking, 001 spoke again: [Premise, he knows he can't keep you.]
Wen Qing blinked, and said slowly: [But he still helped me.]
[He can watch a show in the mirror...]
Thinking of what Wen Jing seemed to have said before leaving, Wen Qing asked again: [Did you hear what Wen Jing said?]
[I only heard the system prompt.]
001: [I heard it.]
Wen Qing asked in a low voice: [Can you tell me?]
001 said coldly: [He said he loves you.]
Wen Qing was stunned: [? ? ?]
He couldn't help asking one more question: [Did you really hear correctly?]
001: […No.]
Wen Qing was silent for a long time, recalling what Wen Jing had said to herself and the ambiguous things she had done.
After a long time, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: [Wen Jing is really a narcissist.]
001: […]
[Think about it carefully.]
Wen Qing was stunned for a moment: [Isn't that the reason?]
Isn't it because he is not narcissistic himself, so Wen Jing, who is his opposite, is very narcissistic
Wen Jing...
was born from the mirror.
Could it be...
Wen Qing's eyes lit up: [It's because of the guide's buff, right? !]
001 fell silent.
Although, from a certain point of view, there is no problem with Wen Qing's analysis.
Sensing that 001 seemed a little strange, Wen Qing asked in a low voice: [What's wrong?]
[Where did I say something wrong?]
After a while, 001 sighed softly: [No.]
[I just think you are too rational in some respects.]
Wen Qing was stunned for a while, and realized belatedly that 001 was not analyzing the reason with him, but was discussing love affairs with him.
He drank a glass of water and said slowly: [Because in this place, I may die at any time.]
From beginning to end, he has only one wish.
Come home alive.
Wen Qing didn't think about love or love at all.
Almost never thought about it in the real world, let alone in this world.
On the contrary, he felt that 001 was a bit strange, why did he keep bringing up such things.
Wen Qing thought for a while, and tentatively said to 001: [Is there a possibility that 001 is thinking too much?]
001: […]
Wen Qing analyzed logically: [Is it because you left the dungeon so suddenly that you didn't have time to take a good look at the butler and say goodbye to him?]
So it hurts the spring and the autumn now
001: [… I don't have any.]
[You have,] Wen lightly paused, and said to 001, [You are so slack in not telling me the clearance rewards.]
[We are all back now...] He glanced at the time and continued, [We are all back in twenty minutes!]
001 was silent for a moment, and explained: [Because you were thinking, I didn't bother you.]
Wen Qing asked suspiciously: [So you can control the broadcast of reward settlement?]
001 didn't speak.
Wen Qing didn't press on, and boasted casually: [001 is really a caring system.]
001 was about to speak when he heard Wen Qing's next sentence:
[I'm sure you can find your true love soon.]
001: […]
[Rose Castle Instance Reward Settlement… ]
[Completion of the copy: 100%.]
[Comprehensive assessment: SSS.]
[Reward: 50,000 points, god-level props [Master Key].]
Wen Qing blinked, and without waiting for him to ask, 001 directly presented the prop panel under his nose.
[Props: Skeleton Key (can be used both in the world and in dungeons)]
[Level: God level]
[Function: You can open any door, any lock, only the ones you can't think of, there is no door that I can't open!]
[How to use: Insert me into the door lock you want to open o(*▽*)q.]
[Remarks: No cooling time, unlimited number of times; when am I such an excellent person, when will I be able to open the door of the master's heart?]
Wen Qing is now very used to the strange remarks of the props, he even thinks that the props of the master key look quite normal.
He lowered his head, looked at the castle key in his palm, and asked 001: [Is this the key?]
001: [No.]
After the words fell, another bronze key appeared in Wen Qing's palm. Except that there was no mirror on the top, the shape was almost exactly the same as the key of the old castle.
Wen Qing stared blankly at the two keys, picked up the castle key, and asked 001: [Then what is this?]
001 didn't speak.
Questions that cannot be answered.
Wen Qing looked down at the two keys for a while, then got up and walked to the bedroom.
He put both keys on the bedside table, put them together with the police badge sent by Xing Ze, took out a change of clothes and began to take a shower.
After washing, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.
Wen Qing lay on the bed, looked at the message list, and reported safety one by one.
The first one is Baitong,
As soon as the message was sent, Bai Tong replied in seconds: [Just come back, what copy did you enter?]
Wen Qing: [Rose Castle.]
Bai Tong has not sent any new news for a long time, Wen Qing can almost imagine his shock.
Wen Qing: [I'm fine and I'm not injured.]
Wen Qing: [But this dungeon is really strange, let's have a face-to-face meeting tomorrow.]
Bai Tong: [OK.]
Bai Tong: [Go to bed early.]
Just as Wen Qing was about to send a message to Ye Ye and the others, she received a new message from Bai Tong: [I will talk to Ye Ye and Li Jingjing, lest they disturb your rest.]
Bai Tong: [Good night.]
Wen Qing: [Good night.]
Wen Qing turned over, looked at the empty bedside, and then at the keys on the bedside table.
I kind of miss Xiao Ji Yu and the housekeeper.
001 asked in a low voice: [What's wrong?]
Wen Qing buried half of her face in the quilt, and said softly, "It's nothing."
"Good night, 001."
"Good night."
...
The next day, Wen Qing slept until noon.
He got up to wash up in a daze, and subconsciously shouted: "Guan—"
The voice stopped abruptly, Wen Qing swallowed the word "family", got up, brushed her teeth and washed her face.
Walking into the living room, his lunch was already on the dining table.
He likes to eat meals and a cup of milk tea.
Wen Qing took a sip of the milk tea, and always felt that the taste was a bit strange, which was very different from the taste he drank in the dungeon.
Not as delicious as in the copy.
001 Change the water: [The milk tea in Rose Castle is made by the housekeeper himself.]
Wen gently lowered his head, looked at the milk tea in his hand, and blinked: "So human milk tea is made of powder?"
001: […]
Wen Qing: "You cut corners."
001: [… I will give feedback.]
After breakfast and lunch, Wen Qing changed her clothes and sent a message to Bai Tong. After waiting for a while, she didn't wait for Bai Tong's reply, so she simply left the house.
Human World Commercial Street
There is no change in the commercial street. Pedestrians come and go, gathering in twos and threes, and the flowers and trees grow vigorously.
This time, there was no one squatting outside the pavilion.
Wen Qing glanced around, walked out of the red pavilion, and looked up at the huge light blue statue in the sky.
It's clearer than last time.
The lingering white mist has dispersed to the shoulders of the colossus, leaving only the head hazy and shrouded in white mist, making it hard to see clearly.
Wen Qing stared at it for a while, and felt that this light blue color was somewhat familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere before.
"It moved again and again." Suddenly, the voices of other players sounded beside him.
Wen Qing turned her head to look over, and saw a player looking up at the blue giant statue with panic on his face.
His companion curled his lips and said impatiently: "Didn't I tell you that this is a normal thing now, and some big brothers analyzed that the world is going to be upgraded."
"Upgrade what?"
"I don't know. The system will definitely notify us. Whether we can live to that time is different."
"It's definitely possible. Damn, why are there so many people on the bulletin board? There won't be any notifications, right?"
...
Wen Qing followed their gazes, and saw the crowded players in front of the bulletin board.
He took two steps forward, and when he saw the contents of the bulletin board, he stopped abruptly.
Instead of the previous notes, it was replaced with a new congratulatory announcement.
[Congratulations to player ** for successfully passing the copy of Rose Castle. From now on, adjustments will be made to the world and all copies. I wish all players a happy game.]
[Congratulations to player ** for successfully passing the copy of Rose Castle. From now on, adjustments will be made to the world and all copies. I wish all players a happy game.]
"Fuck, who passed this copy?"
"I heard that this dungeon is extremely difficult."
"Who will tell me what the adjustment means? The probability of not knowing the god-level copy will be increased again?"
…
Wen Qing's eyelids twitched. The last time this kind of adjustment announcement came out was because he and Zhou Zhou passed the copy of the guide.
"Wen Meng?" A male voice suddenly sounded in his ear.
Wen Qing turned his head and saw an acquaintance.
A player from Dezhi High School, Zhang Yang.
Zhang Yang opened his eyes wide: "Fuck, I can see you again, what a coincidence."
Wen Qing subconsciously touched the mask on her face: "So you can recognize me?"
Zhang Yang scratched his head and explained: "I took a second look at you, your eyes are so recognizable that acquaintances can recognize them at a glance."
Wen Qing paused with her fingertips, thinking about wearing more sunglasses next time.
Zhang Yang glanced at the bulletin board on the side, and with a warm arm, said in a low voice: "It was because a player passed a god-level dungeon before, and then the system notified all the dungeons to adjust, and the probability of god-level increased."
"do you know?"
Wen Qing said dryly: "I don't know."
"I don't think you know either." Zhang Yang sighed, and said to him mysteriously, "This player must have something insider. For other similar congratulatory announcements, the system directly writes the name."
"For example, Ozzy passed a 100-player dungeon, and it was hung on the bulletin board for a long time at that time, congratulating the player Ozzy Balabala, but he was pushed down by the player ** later."
Zhang Yang moved closer to his ear and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "I suspect this player**..."
Wen Qing's eyelids twitched, and she quickly asked, "What do you suspect?"
Zhang Yang said with reason: "If you doubt this player, call him **."
Wen Qing: "..."
After a moment of silence, he nodded vigorously: "What you said makes sense."
Continue next time.
