Chapter 9: The Coffee House

The playground of an elementary school.

"Yes, Haozi, just fight like this. Take a bigger step, what are you doing with cringe? A bald man with a fierce face stood aside with his elbows folded, commenting on Ming Hao in battle.

On the playground, a slender green-haired young man was fighting back and forth with a monster.

The young man's fingers were nearly 20 centimeters long and unusually thick. His footwork was steady, and he was able to dodge the monster's claws and fight back every time.

"Ah~"

After an exaggerated scream, the young man was accidentally hit by the monster's claw in the back. At some point, a monster popped out of the edge of the playground and attacked him from behind.

The young man complained as he retreated: "Cousin, why didn't you remind me!" ”。

"Haozi, you have to learn to use your perception flexibly, and use your strengths and avoid weaknesses. Don't always rely on others to remind you, we ghost body quality enhancers must have excellent hand-to-hand combat skills. The bald man shook his head, "Let's end this fight quickly, there will be things to do later." ”

-------------------------------------

"Boss, how did you sell this fire?"

"5 yuan 5 a, 2 ten yuan."

"Let's do it."

After paying the bill, the hungry Li Xiaoxuan took out the donkey meat from the bag and burned it, and the hungry tiger bit it like a food.

"Huazhong Road West, 150 meters walk. Woo, this donkey fire is so salty! Li Xiaoxuan was eating the fire, while looking at the surroundings, always careful and vigilant. After a series of things, Xiao Xuan was a lot more cautious.

When he was almost finished eating, he finally saw the café with the word "Tiantian" written on the faded plaque.

"It should be here."

Xiao Xuan looked at it for a while and walked into the café. The space inside is relatively large, the style is elegant, and you can smell an astringent coffee aroma in the air. There were a few staff at the front desk, and the guests weren't even half full.

Li Xiaoxuan casually found a seat and sat down, looking around, constantly looking for Lin Rou.

A waitress greeted him and handed the menu to Xiao Xuan: "Hello, sir." What do you want to do? ”

"I'm looking for Miss Lin Rou, do you know her?"

"Hehe, sir. Sister Lin is the owner of this café, and she just called and said that if someone is looking for her, she must treat her well. You go to the private room over there and wait, Sister Lin will be there soon. ”

The waitress was a big-eyed girl with a nice face and a hot body. The charm she inadvertently revealed when she spoke made Xiao Xuan blush a little, and he scratched his head and said, "Ahem, where is the private room?" ”

"Sir, this way, please." seemed to see the eagerness in Li Xiaoxuan's eyes, and the girl moved away from him without a trace.

。。。

Under the leadership of his sister, Li Xiaoxuan came to the No. 9 private room upstairs. Not long after, the waiter brought another cup of black coffee and a few plates of good-looking and novel desserts in front of Xiao Xuan. He moved his index finger and savored it.

It wasn't until Li Xiaoxuan put a piece of cake into his mouth with coffee that a man and a woman walked into the private room.

When he looked up, he immediately recognized Lin Rou, who was still wearing the iconic dark black baseball cap. She was joined by a diminutive man with a Chinese face, who was ruddy and neatly dressed. Looks in good spirits.

After the short man found a place to sit down, he turned his body to the side, his legs crossed to the table, and ignored Li Xiaoxuan. Lin Rou moved a chair and sat down next to Xiao Xuan.

"Uh, Sister Lin. I've had a terrible encounter ... ”

Just as Li Xiaoxuan was organizing the language and preparing to tell what happened to him, Lin Rou interrupted him with a smile: "Li Xiaoxuan, right? Well, I can probably guess what you've just experienced, something strange must have happened. ”

Li Xiaoxuan nodded hurriedly when he heard this, and wanted to open his mouth to say something, but was interrupted impatiently by Lin Rou. This made Xiao Xuan, who was holding back his words, a little unhappy.

"Don't rush to complain, rookie. As the saying goes, 'there is no such thing as a free lunch'. I can help you, but this help is not gratuitous, I need to know the details of your personal attributes. In addition, I want 3,000 tokens for your main quest reward. Speaking of which, Lin Rou took the milk coffee brought by the waiter and took a deep sip, "Think about it." If you agree, I can answer you another 5 questions. ”

Lin Rou's tone was lukewarm, and what was hidden under the indifferent appearance was unpredictable.

"Hmm."

Li Xiaoxuan was entangled for a moment after hearing this, but soon nodded dryly, agreed to Lin Rou's conditions, and told Lin Rou about his attributes and talents.

The reason is very simple, Xiao Xuan's current situation is actually quite bad, there are too many questions that need answers urgently, and Lin Rou's personal attributes are not excessive requirements. As for the 3,000 tokens rewarded by the main quest, it's even more not, at the moment, life is at stake, and money is something outside the body, just give it.

。。。

"The personal attributes are average. As for talent, hehe. To be honest, it's the first time I've come across such an interesting talent. Lin Rou listened to Xiao Xuan's detailed information and gave these few sentences of evaluation. She leaned back in her chair and rubbed her head, "You ask, think about it later." ”

Lin Rou's posture of leaning on the back of the chair was very sexy, and the tights on her body outlined a graceful curve.

Li Xiaoxuan had no intention of appreciating these, he reviewed all the information in his mind, and said in a deep voice: "Sister Rou, what's the matter with the rarity of equipment?" I would like to know more about it, can you elaborate on that? ”

"Most newbies like to ask this question." Lin Rou said, "The equipment produced by the Nightmare World can be said to be as much as a cow's hair. Depending on the rarity of the equipment, the attributes will be different. It is generally distinguished by color:

Common equipment is listed in order of rarity: white, blue, dark blue, purple, and orange. There is no doubt that under the premise of similar items, orange rarity equipment is the strongest, and white is the weakest.

White: The property is average, it is a large road goods.

Blue: 1~2 special effects, relatively rare.

Dark blue: 2~3 special effects, the rest is the same as above.

Purple: 3~6 special effects, very rare.

Orange: Extremely rare.

In addition to the above five rarity equipment, there are also some special equipment that can be useless or more powerful than orange equipment, which are:

Black: Habitually referred to as 'Cursed Things' and 'Hoodoos' by regular visitors, attacks have an additional bonus to supernatural creatures such as ghosts. Information about it is purchased for the cost of tokens, and it is very sought-after in the market.

Gold: Class-specific equipment, normally only available to visitors with the specified class of the equipment.

Silver: Soulbound equipment (this equipment will not burst when killed).

Light green: Growable equipment. The initial stage is weak, and no one can say what kind of growth it will be in the later stage, and most of these equipment have an upper limit on their growth.

That's basically all there is to it, in fact, it doesn't matter if the attributes are strong or not. Imagine that even a Gatling machine gun of orange rarity could be more powerful than an atomic bomb? ”

Lin Rou said a lot in one breath, and Li Xiaoxuan on the side listened in amazement. I see, the rarity of the skill scroll seems to be in line with the rarity of this equipment.

He asked, "Sister Rou, what's the matter with the difficulty of the nightmare world?" After entering the mission world, I got information that this world is a nightmare difficulty, so let's talk about this. ”

"No problem." Lin Rou took a big sip of coffee, "It's not a secret, you can learn the details when you return to Happy Valley." But since I'm here, I'll tell you in advance. ”

"There are six levels of difficulty in the Nightmare World, from easy to hard: Easy, Normal, Hard, Nightmare, Nightmare, and Hell

The easy difficulty is purely for beginners, and visitors will not re-enter the world of this difficulty after experiencing the Nightmare World five times...... Don't look at me like that, most newbies aren't as unlucky as the four of you, and you're entering the world of Nightmare difficulty from the start.

This is followed by two difficulties: Normal and Hard. There are no supernatural creatures on normal difficulty, and the main quest is easy to complete; The difficulty is completely different, the main quest becomes very tedious, and if you are unlucky, you will also encounter some supernatural creatures, and the mortality rate will gradually increase.

As for the difficulty of the nightmare you're experiencing now, it can be said that supernatural creatures are everywhere, and occasionally extremely perverted monsters will emerge. For a newcomer like you, it's never an exaggeration to call this a nightmare.

I've only experienced the difficulty of nightmares once, and to be honest, that time......" Lin Rou's speech slowed down, her eyes were dyed with an indescribable color of panic, and her plump body seemed to be under some kind of pressure, trembling slightly.

"Goo-dong"

She poured another big sip of milk coffee and said tremblingly: "That time, the head of the regiment was here, and the two major MTs in the team (the main bearers of monster hatred) were also there, and I thought that I would sit back and relax, but at most I would die one or two unlucky people with bad luck." But who would have thought that the 25 people who went back only 6 people came back in the end, and the deputy head Shi Hong was killed. ”

He ...... Forget it, let's not mention it, let's talk about the hell difficulty. Lin Rou's face became ugly.

"I don't need to tell you about this difficulty, you can guess it just by looking at its name. Indeed, a well-deserved hell, purgatory, slaughterhouse! Only the commander-level characters in the big team are sure to come back alive, and we small characters have no other way out than to die or be used as cannon fodder.

Also, there's a setting called 'Pain Reduction' in Happy Valley. You can see in the [Main/Side Quests] menu that the pain reduction in this world is 20%. ”

Li Xiaoxuan nodded.

"This setting actually improves our combat effectiveness in disguise, easy difficulty is 35%, normal 30%, difficult 25%, nightmare 20%, nightmare 10%, hell is 0%

Do you see the pattern, it's decreasing sequentially, quite perverted. This means that the danger doubles with each difficulty level. ”
