"Good afternoon."

When the exhausted Qi Leren came out of the basement with heavy steps, he immediately saw the illusionist sitting at the round table playing cards with Chen Baiqi and Sissy. The silver chips had already been piled up in front of him. In a tall stack, Sissy looked unlucky, with an aggrieved expression. The illusionist who won the card was in a good mood, and greeted Qi Leren with a smile.

Obviously, Qi Leren didn't want to see him—ever since he witnessed a transvestite urinating in the men's bathroom upskirt, he would see the illusionist at Chen Baiqi's every now and then. He is keen on changing his appearance, he wears women's clothes every time, and he often looks different, which directly causes Qi Le people to be more vigilant when they see strange women at Chen Baiqi's place, because sometimes illusionists will play tricks on him.

Once when he heard the illusionist's voice from the front hall, Qi Leren walked towards another door without hesitation, but when he pushed open this ordinary hall door, he found a ten-year-old dog outside the door. A tyrannosaurus rex several meters high is roaring ferociously at him! In the earth-shattering roar, Qi Leren, who faced the Tyrannosaurus Rex's roar, was so scared that he peed! The instigator laughed wildly from the sidelines, and triumphantly discussed with Chen Baiqi the importance of shock education for training players' psychological quality.

The Qi Le people have written down this hatred! One day he will take his clothes off in public and throw the breast pads in front of the stunned passers-by to take revenge!

"Want to play cards together?" the illusionist invited.

"No." Qi Leren flatly refused.

"Come on, let's play together, maybe we can win." The illusionist said.

"That's right, brother, let's play cards together." Sissy also said.

If you play cards, you don't need to train, right? The thought of being lazy came to Qi Leren's mind, he swallowed, and suddenly found that he couldn't get rid of this tempting thought.

Looks like he's been having some luck lately, maybe give it a try.

So he sneaked a look at Chen Baiqi, she shrugged indifferently, as if she was letting him go.

"Okay, I'll come too." The people from Qi Le also sat on the round table with tacit approval, "What cards are you playing?"

"Bullfighting doesn't have any technical content, it all depends on luck."

This is simple, Qi Le people know it, so he rubbed his hands confidently: "How to bet?"

"Using NPC's currency, you can exchange it with the remaining survival time, I will lend you first." Chen Baiqi pushed over a stack of chips, which are exquisitely crafted silver coins, and humans in the nightmare world usually trade with this currency.

"Then continue." The illusionist shuffled the cards flexibly and winked at the three of them.

The initial expectation has been shattered in the face of cruel reality. Qi Le people can still comfort themselves that it was just a coincidence for the first Wuniu, the second, third, and fourth... Qi Le people finally recognized the reality and gave birth to the feeling of "hehe, it really is still a lucky E" realistic perception.

Qi Le, who lost all his chips in just ten minutes and still owed Chen Baiqi a full seventy-two silver coins, stared at the bad cards in his hand with despair. Come out, this one will kneel again!

When he raised his head, he found that the three of them were all looking at him curiously, and the expressions written on their faces were: I really want to know how bad you are.

"I'm not playing anymore." Qi Leren threw the cards away, slumped on the chair and choked speechlessly, "I'm going to train."

Chen Baiqi smiled: "It seems that your body and mind have been fully rested, so let's practice for an extra hour today."

On the way to the basement as if mourning, Qi Leren, who was physically and mentally traumatized, suddenly realized that he was using a debt of seventy-two silver coins to give himself an hour of extra training

The illusionist's cheerful voice came from behind: "Oh, I won a lot today."

Qianqian was also very happy: "I lost a lot, but the people of Qi Le lost some more to me, so I lost even less."

Chen Baiqi was also very happy: "I didn't lose or win on the card, but I earned Qi Leren seventy-two silver."

Qi Leren, who may be the only loser: Am I being tricked? ?

When Qi Le came home that day, Du Yue happened to be there too. This young man often brings his own ingredients to Dr. Lu's place for a meal. Dr. Lu likes him quite a bit, and the people of Qi Le have become familiar with him. It feels good to be able to hear social news about hunting oddities every now and then. Today, the young man suspected of having the fate of the protagonist did not live up to his expectations.

"I didn't want to go out today, but I always ran into trouble when I went out, and it took me a long time to delay." Du Yue was also very helpless about his accident constitution, "But in the afternoon, I remembered that there was nothing to eat at home, so I went out anyway. gone."

"Then you meet strange people again," Dr. Lu said.

"Yes, but today's adventure is a bit strange. When I walked to the market, I was entangled by a cat. It was a very fat three-colored cat. It meowed around me. I saw its neck There is a collar on it with an address written on it, and I just thought that someone lost the pet." Du Yue scratched his hair and continued, "It's nothing special anyway, so I sent the cat back. When I arrived at the address, no one came to open the door no matter how hard I knocked, so I went to look at the window. Looking in from the window, I saw a kitchen. The kitchen utensils were neatly placed on the counter, and only the cutting board It came down, and there was a half-cut octopus on it. The room was quiet, and there was no sound... "

Dr. Lu rubbed his arms: "I feel like I'm listening to a horror story."

It's the same with Qi Leren, Du Yue's words are normal, but he seems to have a talent for telling horror stories, and the words that come out of his mouth have a creepy feeling.

Du Yue smiled embarrassingly: "Stranger things are yet to come. The octopus has only been cut in half, and it looks fresh. I think the owner should be in the house, so I called him from the window, but no one answered. But the cat I was holding jumped out and ran in through the open window, bit the half of the uncut octopus, and came back to me. I saw a card was stuffed inside the octopus, like It's the size of a supermarket membership card, and this is it."

Du Yue said, put the card on the table, and said: "Don't touch it, I will receive the task after I touch it."

Dr. Lu and Qi Le were very curious: "What task?"

"A dungeon mission with C-level difficulty. The number of people in the dungeon is limited to three. The mission name is 'Interstellar Death Reality Show'. No matter how many people join, the mission will start within three days. Is C-level difficult? Before, I only You have done a D-level mission." Du Yue asked in distress.

"It's not bad, we've experienced B-level ones too." Dr. Lu glanced at Qi Leren. The original "Castle Cry" mission was upgraded from D-level to B-level due to the interference of the power of the devil. At that time, the deceitful demon king followed them to help with the task, and Dr. Lu couldn't help shivering, feeling scared for a while.

"For the three-person dungeon, I suggest you find two more familiar people to go with. Is there any contact with the companions in Xinshou Village?" Qi Leren asked.

Du Yue shook his head in frustration: "In my Novice Village, there was a serious internal strife. In the end, only me and another player survived, but I haven't seen her since then."

Qi Leren and Dr. Lu looked at each other.

Dr. Lu: An appointment

Qi Leren: What about you

Dr. Lu: Let me make an appointment.

Qi Leren: Are you okay

Dr. Lu: After all, acquaintances, let alone C, should be okay.

Qi Leren: Let me make an appointment too, I still owe him a favor, and I don’t need to train to do the task!

Once the idea of escaping the training comes together, it can no longer be restrained. The thought of being able to fly for a few days with a legitimate reason, Qi Le people are as excited as a primary school student who is going to go on a spring outing tomorrow, full of joy and ready to move.

After completing eye contact, Dr. Lu and Qi Leren nodded together.

Dr. Lu smiled and said, "Xiao Yue, we see that it may be a little difficult for you to try a C-level task for the first time alone..."

Du Yue looked at them eagerly: "It's quite difficult."

Qi Leren kept smiling: "We will take you."

"Thank you so much! I wanted to invite you just now, but I'm too embarrassed..." Du Yue blushed slightly, but it was not obvious because of his skin color, "Thank you, thank you! Thank you, senior!"

After agreeing to do the task together, the two directly touched the "octopus card".

[Player Qi Leren, trigger the mission: Interstellar Death Reality Show. The countdown to start the mission is 68:32:24. Players can receive the mission by touching the mission props. The remaining number of people who can join: 0/3.]

Qi Leren is determined, now it is a foregone conclusion to ask for leave and skip training, and finally he can have a good two days! Long live escape, long live, long live!

"By the way, what is your skill card? We can study your specialties based on your skill card." Qi Leren asked.

"Oh, my skill is called [Protagonist Halo]." Du Yue put the skill card in front of the two of them, and Qi Leren and Dr. Lu took a closer look, feeling an urge to beat up this newcomer.

[Protagonist Halo] (Bound Skill Card): When you use this skill card, you will instantly become the focus of the crowd, the protagonist of the story, and the brave and fearless savior! You exude a frightening aura of domineering, you can easily move people's hearts with your words, you can always hold your last breath when you are beaten by a powerful enemy, because the enemy can't help explaining their motives to you and modus operandi (though I'm afraid not enough time). The duration of this skill is 1 minute once, and the cooling time is 3 hours. During the skill activation, the persuasion will increase by 20%, and the IQ of everyone present will decrease by 20%. You will not die if you are attacked. After all, you are the protagonist of this 1 minute.

People in Qi Le feel that their character design is more and more like a senior who gave the protagonist cheats, led the protagonist to level up, and finally died in front of the protagonist and gave him a wave of assists.

It's really indescribable pain in my heart.
