After coaxing Xiaohui to sleep, Li Zheng sat in place and was stunned.
He didn't expect the girl to realize this step, should it be said that it is worthy of the girl's intuition?
Some time ago, after returning from the virtual world of Shinadu, Bai Lori once told herself two "good news", one of which was very simple good news, that is, she got the "jealousy" upgrade component from Shinadu, and the other, "The contractor's situation is about to completely improve, and the moment she wins the duel city championship with her own strength, the extra gap in her heart will be filled, and all the tasks on the first contractor will be completely liquidated." β
At that time, Li Zheng once asked Bai Lori what this meant, and Bai Lori's explanation was very simple: "Don't you really think that with the state of being so fragile when you first came to this world, you can enter the spiritual world of a human being with a healthy and complete sense of self without being crushed to death?"
"You mean?!" Li Zheng was stunned for a moment, although the spirit body did not break out in a cold sweat, Li Zheng felt that his hair stood on end, as if Bai Lori was about to tell himself a terrible truth - this fact was so cruel that he didn't want to know.
"Huh, guessed?" The corners of Bai Lori's mouth rose slightly, sat back on the bed, shook her little feet in beautiful knee-length white socks, and read a document with a document: "Dongfeng Gu Hui, after not getting sick for three months, confidently stepped on the ship of the Duelist Kingdom, and then on the first night on the ship, he suddenly fell ill in his sleep and died. β
"......" Li Zheng was dumbfounded, although he had been mentally prepared, but when he really faced this fact, he still ...... Unacceptable!
"Luckily, you're here, though. Bai Lori looked at Li Zheng's expression, obviously very useful, "What she has is actually not a disease, but a kind of mental concussion - well, to use a metaphysical parlance, curse - the principle is very complicated, so I won't tell you here, this is indeed a terminal illness for human beings and human medicine." But this curse can be traced back to something very primordial, not only about the origin of this world, but also for your rebirth. It is for this reason that she meets the conditions to be your contractor, and your contract with her allows her to be reborn. β
"So, it stands to reason that I can't leave Xiaohui, right?" asked Li Zheng.
"Use your brain. Bai Lori pointed to her forehead with her index finger like mutton fat jade, and said: "The contractor has been reborn, and the contract between you and her is just to suppress this curse and prevent it from torturing the contractor to death again, and if you really want to lift this state, you still have to make a breakthrough by herself." β
"......" Li Zheng was silent, is this good news? Of course, because as long as Dongfeng Guhui is successfully crowned the "Duel King" in the Duel City, she will be able to completely get rid of this curse and live like a normal person. But if she lifts the curse, there is no basis for establishing a contract between herself and her, and the contract will be automatically unbroken, and she will continue to choose a second contractor in the vast sea of people.
Later, when Li Zheng watched the last game of Duel City, his mood was so complicated that it was difficult for outsiders to tell him - he hoped that Xiaohui would no longer be tortured, but he was reluctant to give up the other party.
[Xiaohui, what does she think?] Li Zheng doesn't know.
As soon as the memories came to an end, Li Zheng sat up from his sofa, originally planning to go back to the Human Spirit Hall to continue discussing the cause of saving the world with Z-ONE, but a sudden piece of news made Li Zheng have to stop.
[What kind of plane is she doing in Bai Lori?] Li Zheng looked at the updated mission log and frowned, [Is it to make up for the loss of my duel city not winning the championship?]
It turns out that it is a new main quest. Originally, the black and white Lori told Li Zheng that the main quest is only the same every week, but I didn't expect that now there will be a new main quest just after the duel city ends.
[The establishment plan of the Duel Academy (1), the goal is to plan the "Duel Academy" project with the seahorse, the rewards are quite a lot, and it doesn't seem to be difficult............] Li Zheng thought about it, [Should I complain that it is really this world?
After the end of the duel city, Seahorse mercilessly blew up the dueling tower on the scrap iron island, and arranged to expand the area of some islands with the original materials on the scrap iron island, is it for some kind of "dueling academy" preparation?
Li Zheng put the terminal copy in his pocket - since the birth of self-consciousness in the terminal body (especially since this self-consciousness is still a joker), Li Zheng has become more and more fond of using this connection with the terminal body, which is inferior to the terminal in terms of computing power but fortunately, it will not give you emotions and will not talk nonsense - and then thought: [It seems that what they originally said once a week is just a setting before the system upgrade. γ
Li Zheng felt another update and change in the system - after defeating Z-ONE, the "Jealousy" upgrade package obtained from Zhinadu was finally installed, and after a new upgrade of the system, the original skills and functions were strengthened - for example, the cooldown time of "Sublimated Spirit" was shortened and the effect was enhanced - but the new skills did not appear.
However, after trying out the function of the system upgrade, there are no new skills or anything, and Li Zheng feels that it is acceptable.
For example, he has now turned on the "lottery system", and the originally deserted casino is now full of people, with bunny girls and moon-white cheongsam waiters shuttling among them, and there are many men and women wearing masks serving as gamblers in the casino.
Li Zheng closed his eyes and felt the connection between the "lottery system" and the "Spirit Temple System" at this time, and sure enough, there were many people from all over the world who came to this casino through various adventures in the city where the Spirit Temple was located and other cities and towns in the "Spirit Temple System".
Here, Li Zheng, who had no contact with them, was able to interact with them.
Li Zheng looked at the lynx masked man in front of him, he and Li Zheng were playing 21 points, in the bets of both sides, Li Zheng put out a lot of large-denomination chips - after all, as the actual owner of the "lottery system", the exchange point in his hand is very valuable here - and in front of the other party in addition to less chips than Li Zheng, there is also a spirit card called "majestic".
[Is there a spirit card in the world of the Spirit Temple system?] Li Zheng thought so, [Speaking of which, Z-ONE also showed me a spirit card some time ago. γ
However, since it was a spirit card, Li Zheng had to accept it unceremoniously, and he silently opened the "Sublimation Spirit" and calculated all the possibilities of the cards!
γ2...... The next one is a 10 or an A, and it's good to get a 10...... Next, it's 3, my points are much lower than his, but ......] Li Zheng smiled slightly, and then, I heard the dealer's voice:
"Scattered bust, dealer wins!"
"Thank you. Li Zheng got up, touched the stiff man's shoulder, took away the spirit card in front of him, and put away his chips, and did not take any of the rest.
It seems like a pretense not to take the opponent's chips, but in fact, Li Zheng's idea is very simple: [This cheating system, no matter how much you win except your own chips, you can't exchange them for exchange points, and it won't work if you come back next time, such a thing, what's the use of keeping you?!]
