Chapter Twenty-Nine: Futaba's Troubles
Subsequently, Ilya once again asked Lu Fan about the various speech lines unlocked by the current system.
Probability line: The most powerful speech line, which can interfere with the law of cause and effect, change the probability of an event, and directly change the external environment and the action mode of living beings, but requires a different amount of speech and spirit values.
For example, small things like changing the direction of the wind and changing the probability of the force limit of a metal probably only require a few points of Speech, but changing the behavior patterns of intelligent beings, such as having one person actively attack another person, requires a very high amount of Speech and Spirit.
Action Line: Change the spirit line of the host's physical ability, without spending spirit points, and will automatically gain 100 action points after each mission starts. Lu Fan had used it before against the Yaksha King and the three social youths.
When the action line is active, you need to complete a QTE game at the same time, and the more accurate the rhythm and the higher the number of combos, the more spirit points you can earn.
Skill Line: A newly unlocked Skill Line when you reach level 3, which allows users to use various skills and knowledge in a short period of time, such as craft, art, technology, cooking, science, etc., but it costs Spirit Points to unlock.
In order for the above three lines to be effective, they must be spoken in words, which can be designed by the host itself, and will be rewarded according to the effect of the lines and actions when the task is settled.
If the effect is good, there will be an additional critical hit bonus, and if the effect is poor, the mission will simply fail.
Use the three spirit lines to complete various tasks to obtain spirit points.
Spirit is not only the currency of the system, but also the health of the host.
If the host's Speech and Spirit value is reset to zero in any mission, it will enter a bad end, and the host will be thrown into the space-time prison forever, never to return to the real world.
In addition, when you reach level 3, the system unlocks a gadget called the "Tech Tree".
Lu Fan opened the interface of the technology tree under the guidance of Ilya and took a look, and the technology tree currently has three branches.
The first branch is "probability", and the various technologies in it can enhance the various effects of the probability line and reduce the cost of the probability line.
The second branch is "Action", which can enhance the various increases of the Action Line to the body by spending Speech Points, and can also unlock various strange martial arts poses and combat stunts.
The third branch is "Skills", which can be used to unlock various skill lines to enhance the mastery of skills in various professional fields.
To sum up, Lu Fan must use the system flexibly, usually use various speech spirit lines to brush the speech spirit value, click on the technology tree, unlock new functions, and unlock new milestones in the process.
For now, that's probably the process.
β¦β¦
"You get it, right?" Ilya looked at Lu Fan, and her red pupils blinked. She had exhausted her tongue just now, and her mouth was a little dry.
"Got the idea, it's justβ"
Before he finished speaking, suddenly there was a knock at the door, followed by Futaba's voice: "Brother, are you asleep?" How do I seem to hear someone else in the room? I'm in. β
When Lu Fan heard this, she immediately panicked, this girl Shuangye has always done her own thing at home, and knocking on the door is just etiquette for her.
Since she was a child, she wanted to enter Lu Fan's room at any time. If Ilya in the room is discovered by Futaba, I'm afraid that the scene will explode directly, and even if I have a mouth full of mouths, I can't explain it.
"Miss Elijah, can you be incognito first?" Lu Fan said in a low voice.
"Didn't I tell you, I'm just an ordinary person now, and I don't have such a stunt as stealth."
"Then you'll get under the bed first, right?"
"No, it's so dirty inside, why don't you get under the bed." Ilya pursed her lips, a little upset.
"Huh? Is there really anyone else in the room? Then I'll open the door. The metal handle of Lu Fan's room door began to turn, and he saw that the door was about to open.
Lu Fan was shocked, it was obviously too late to let Ilya go through the window at this time, and this was the second floor, it would be terrible if she was broken, and he had to find a way to hide Ilya as soon as possible.
"Miss Elijah, it's rude."
"Yike...... What are you doing...... Hmmm......"
Lu Fan gritted his teeth, pulled Ilya into the quilt, and then covered the quilt, while he himself put on slippers and sat at the head of the bed pretending to read.
As soon as he finished this series of actions, the door creaked open, and Futaba walked in in a hurry.
"Futaba, what are you doing in my room at night? I'm ready to go to bed. Lu Fan pretended to be calm and looked at Futaba.
At this time, he was not feeling well, because Ilya kept roaring in the system channel.
"You, you, what do you want to do?!" Although it is swearing, the voice is still so cute.
"Please, Miss Elijah, please bear with me, if my sister finds out about you, everything will be over, and I'm afraid something will happen even more terrifying than entering a space-time prison."
"Stinky dog, stupid pig, woo ......" Although he scolded like this, Ilya's body continued to lie on the bed very honestly, not moving.
Lu Fan watched the power bar in the upper right corner of the system screen fluctuate violently from side to side: 90%, 78%, 88%, 76%, 86%...... I couldn't help but feel a pain in my flesh.
Now his brain can only operate in two lines, while comforting Ilya in the brain system channel, and talking to his sister Futaba so as not to reveal flaws.
"I just finished watching the show and was about to take a shower, and I happened to see the light on in your room, so I wanted to come and talk to you about something. But why do you have to rest so early today, you're usually a night owl. And, I seem to have heard it just now...... Girl's voice? Futaba stared at Lu Fan's face and said a little suspiciously.
"A girl's voice? How could it be, you heard it wrong. I'm reading a book, and there's no girl's voice. Lu Fan wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and pretended to turn a page of the book.
This is a detective novel that Lu Fan likes very much, and the book is called "He's Definitely Lying".
"But my brother ......" Futaba pointed to the book in Lu Fan's hand, and said faintly: "Your book is reversed." β
Lu Fan glanced at the book in his hand, and indeed turned the book upside down, and the words were upside down.
"Oh, I'm too fascinated to pay attention, so reading helps to exercise the intellect, you don't understand."
Lu Fan quietly put the book back on the bedside table, and then asked with a loving brother who cared about his sister: "Why, come to me at night, do you have any trouble?" β
Secret Technique: Divert the Subject!
"Hmm...... Actually, I've been harassed by a boy in my class a lot lately. He's been chasing me lately, but I don't like him at all. Although he refused many times, he still pestered with a dead face......"
"And this kind of thing?" Lu Fan's eyes became sharp, who didn't have long eyes, made up his mind to hit his sister on the head!
"When I got out of school today, he came to me and said that he would pick a time to sing KTV with me in the future, and I refused him, but he said that if I didn't accompany him this time, he would pester me every day after school in the future......"
Futaba's pretty face has a sad face, although the eyebrows are slightly frowned, but it is still cute and cute.
Lu Fan clenched his fists, this kid was too much.
Futaba's status at home,It can be said that she is tied for first place with her mother.,It's too late for my father and myself to spoil her.,How can she be wronged outside.γ
What's more, his parents are living in an apartment near the city center, and he, Lu Fan, is now the acting head of the family, so he can't turn a blind eye to this.
"In this way, Futaba, you don't refuse him, if you tell him to set a time, you will go to KTV on time to make an appointment. But you tell him that you want to take your brother there, and you say, I have something I want to talk to him about. It's okay, I'll take the lead for you, brother. β
"Really, thank you, brother! I like my brother the most! With a smile on his little face, he threw himself into the crook of Lu Fan's arm, and rubbed his little head with a cute double ponytail.
"Hmm...... Hmmm......"
Although Lu Fan nodded calmly on the surface, looking calm, but at this time, his heart could be described as turbulent.
At this time, the system channel in Lu Fan's mind came from Ilya's voice again: "Hmph~ It turns out that she is still a sister control." β
"Miss Elijah, don't be joking in this situation. Don't move at a critical moment. β
Lu Fan shouted in his heart.
β¦β¦
After about a few minutes, under Lu Fan's persuasion, Futaba finally left the room, but fortunately, she didn't notice that there was still a person hidden in the room until she left.
After confirming that Futaba closed the door and walked away, Lu Fan walked back and lifted the quilt.
I saw Ilya lying on the quilt, with long blond hair scattered in front of me, and I could feel the soft touch of this long hair with my arms.
Her red eyes don't know if it's because she's shy or afraid, the waves on it are shining, and her cheeks are already red, and with a slightly loose maid outfit, Lu Fan suddenly has a feeling that she is going to be cute.
With a sound on the ground, Ilya jumped off the bed at a speed comparable to the speed of light, and then looked at Lu Fan with a vigilant posture, as if the injured little beast was watching the old hunter who was chasing him.
