Chapter 59: Confusion in the Square

Miners' Square is more of a planned stall area than a square. The square is lined with small squares for players to set up stalls to sell items, and because of the city's specialty ores, most of the items sold here are related to mining, or simply rare ores.

Today's stalls in the Miners' Square are sparsely populated, nine out of ten squares are not used, and most of the few stalls are not owned by stall owners, and they all use a self-service vending system to mark prices or buy items. Looking at the scale of this square, you can imagine the spectacular sight of it being filled with players on weekdays.

Although Lin Feifei looked disappointed, he still pulled Bai Si and looked at each stall very seriously. Although the number of booths today cannot be compared with the past, it still made Lin Feifei see a lot of good things and opened his eyes.

For example, a fist-sized mechanical spider can be used for mining, and can dig up precious and rare sand-like ores by carving a small hole in a rock wall, and of course, it can also carry offensive materials such as explosives or venom as a kind of ambush and sneak attack props. The most interesting thing is that these spiders are not independent special props, but are born from the eggs laid by a female spider owned by the stall owner. Bai Siyi said that he had no good impression of this kind of hairy insects, but Lin Feifei squatted in front of the stall and watched these little spiders spin around and play all over the ground for a while. The stall owner's offer is not expensive, as long as one is a hundred points, Lin Feifei almost has to pay for one to come back to play, which makes Bai Siyi stand up goosebumps all over his body.

"We don't mine, and we don't have explosives and poisons." She persuaded the boy for another half time before the boy gave up the idea. It's also strange to say, Lin Feifei seems to be only afraid of things like corpses and ghosts, but he doesn't look afraid of disgusting things like bugs at all.

The most popular items on the booth are the ones that can increase the income of activities such as mining, from long-lasting special items to short-lasting food potion mechanical items. And the largest number of ores are all kinds of ores. There are various names for these ores, and there are few that Bai Siyi has heard of in reality. Listening to the stall owner's simple introduction, there are several ores that have the effect of enhancing the effect of weapons, repairing weapon damage, or restoring the number of times weapons are used. But the price...... It's not ridiculously expensive, and the price is often tens of thousands of dollars, or it's so cheap that it only costs a few points.

As soon as Bai Si picked up a piece of ore that could be purchased for only 5 points, it was said that it could increase the power of the weapon and looked at it carefully, the ore was lime, the edge was slightly smooth like a pebble washed by the river, no matter how you looked at it, it was just an ordinary pebble on the side of the road. In order to avoid misunderstanding, Bai Siyi did not first put this stone in the package to check the details, but thinking about it, this kind of stone is so cheap, there must be a defect that the stall owner did not introduce.

"Two pieces." Bai Siyi randomly selected two pieces of this ore from the large basket, handed them to the stall owner for 10 points, and put the stones into the package.

Bai Si looked at the stone in the package, and finally knew why this stone was so cheap.

First of all, each of these stones occupies a parcel compartment, so it is no wonder that the stall owner filled a large basket with a basket and placed it on the stall at random, even if he wanted to buy a large pile of stones and put them in the package.

Secondly......

"The lowest level of the enhancement stone, there is a certain chance to increase the effectiveness of the weapon, after the first enhancement is successful, from the second enhancement, the failure of the enhancement will cause a certain degree of damage to the weapon. The success rate of this stone enhancement is 2.37%Yo~"

Bai Siyi looked at the other stone, and there was no difference in the above introduction, but the final chance of success was 2.32%.

Seeing these two chances of success, Bai Si had no interest in using these two stones, so he directly closed the package and followed Lin Feifei towards the next stall.

Although there were a lot fewer stalls, it still took a lot of time for the two of them to go over one by one.

There is no sun underground to tell the time, but the bands of light above the head that constantly change shape gradually dim until they dissipate into dots of light on the rock wall, becoming a starry sky in another sense.

Bai Siyi and Lin Feifei found a bench on the periphery of the square and sat down. The feeling that the empty heart had nowhere to put enveloped Bai Siyi again.

She laughed coldly at herself in her heart. When I was in the dungeon, I desperately wanted to return to the safe city, and when I was really in the city, I began to miss the feeling of being in the dungeon world, where there was a clear goal in front of me at all times, and there was no death behind me to coerce forward.

Hey, let's go to the forum. Bai Siyi found that sometimes people go online simply because they are too confused.

After instructing Lin Feifei not to run far, Bai Siyi opened the forum again, found a few posts she had followed, and re-read them according to the proximity of time.

There are still only a few replies under the post of the leather shoe hotel, and the person who left the word "save me" has no more news, which is obviously within her expectations.

I opened the post she had written looking for a blank space, and there was no reply underneath the post. As soon as Bai Si saw this situation, he didn't know whether he was more disappointed in his heart, or if he was relieved and felt more dominant.

She looked at the live broadcast post of the photoelectric river crab king a few days ago, and the floor below this post was displayed as 99999+, and the specific number was no longer displayed. But Bai Siyi looked at it in the original post, and the last sentence was still the one that Xiao Wei updated last time. I don't know if this little one has not gotten out of trouble.

The most popular and popular posts on the forum are the collapse of the ant nest. Another Pepsi war correspondent is at the forefront of the public area of the big mine, just like Xiao Yui did last time, constantly using the function of the portable forum to broadcast the rescue work in the forum.

Bai Siyi's heart spontaneously developed a sense of admiration for these war correspondents. The abilities of these War Correspondents will undoubtedly allow them to understand the development of events better than the average player to various degrees, and if these Reporters use these abilities to fight other nuclear players, they will definitely have a great advantage. She didn't know if these reporters were struggling to survive in the dungeon like other players when they weren't known, but when there were big events in the game, and those big events often meant big dangers, they would be on the front line and pass the news on to all the players in the game.

Perhaps, behind this behavior is driven by interests that Bai Siyi does not know, but Bai Siyi prefers to believe that those interest chains are the plans of the high-level personnel of the organization, and these people who are personally involved in danger are purely fighting for their own ideals.

A person without ideals will always be just a salted fish. In the end, it will only be forgotten in some corner that no one knows, and it will be moldy and stinky alone, and even the tears that come out will be disgusted.

So what is my ideal?

Bai Si was on a bench in the square, his eyes closed, and he fell into confusion again.

Once, she just wanted to live with Bai Kong, maybe a little harder, she could make the two of them live better. Then, her world changed, and it turned upside down in one fell swoop. After the initial nervous adaptation, she had a little respite, and the people around her were replaced by another teenager who had a similar appearance but a completely different inside.

Can she still take on the responsibility of protector? She is never the right protector.

Bai Siyi's mind drifted away again, and in the repeated self-denial and confused wandering, time passed quickly. Lin Feifei had already run away twice, and ran back to her side twice.

What interrupted her train of thought was a shiver. It seemed that there was a voice in her heart that had been shouting in her ear, but it was blocked by layers of fog and could not be heard really, until a certain moment, the continuous accumulation of rolling waves broke through the barrier and suddenly exploded in her mind, making her body tremble involuntarily.

Bai Siyi suddenly realized that if she continued to deny herself like this, let alone figure out what her ideals were, it would be difficult even if she wanted to survive in the game.

She struggled to gather her mind and keep herself up and continue browsing the forum.

Judging from the latest news, the collapse of the large mine is much better than expected. Although there is a word "big" in the name of the big mine, there are still many small branches of the mine. And the abilities of the players are strange, and most of them have been trained from various dangerous dungeons, so at the first time when the mine collapsed, the players in it crossed the sea with eight immortals and showed their supernatural powers to save their lives. Knowing that a rescue has begun to be organized outside the mine, players who were not buried in the first moment are also trying to open a way out of the mine.

Fortunately, this is the game, and many of the reasons why miners die after a mining accident in the real world have become not a problem in the game.

Knowing the news, Bai Siyi's heart finally settled down, and the trance just now finally left her.

Perhaps, it was the knowledge that so many people were buried near her at the same time that stimulated her mind? After all, she's still a newcomer who has only gone through 2 dungeons.

Bai Si breathed a long sigh of relief, and his face, which had been tense, finally eased.
