Chapter 19: The Sorcerer's Codex (Finale)
"I always thought you were smart, but I didn't expect you to be smart enough to guess it was me."
The female voice paused,
But what's the use of knowing that? You're still going to die here......"
Jiang Jiuwei forcibly held back the cold and sticky touch coming from the back of his head, and said calmly: "I want to talk to you, I may not be able to give you my body if you need it." β
"Oh?"
The tentacles that were originally in the back of her head had reached her neck, gently wrapping around her neck like a python, as if she only had to act rashly, she would give Jiang Jiuwei an extremely painful way to die.
"But I don't think I can take it without your consent......"
Jiang Jiuwei still didn't look back, still enduring the slippery discomfort, and said softly: "I have a way to realize your desires, whether it is for immortality, strength, or revenge. β
Hearing these three words, Jiang Jiu didn't feel any less murderous aura on the person behind him. Seeing that she had no further threatening actions, Jiang Jiuwei hurriedly hit the railway while it was hot:
"I'm a gamer, you know?"
"Yes."
Hearing her affirmative answer, Jiang Jiu didn't know that some of his previous assumptions had been verified. This world should be a real world with a complete history and cultural process, and these "players" are more like projections of this world for a short time.
But figuring out this joint doesn't guarantee her safe out of the death loop, and she needs more information. Thinking of this, Jiang Jiu coughed tentatively, and said in a gentle tone: "Trust me, I can bring you much more benefits than killing me." Can I turn it around now? I need to confirm your situation......"
The tentacles on Jiang Jiuwei's neck tightened slightly, as if the woman was thinking about it, but soon the pressure relaxed, and she was able to move freely again.
Jiang Jiuwei turned around slowly, looking at the woman in front of him, just as he wanted to speak, he felt his wrists and ankles cold, and then the whole person was hung upside down in the air.
She saw the woman in front of herβif it was a person. The girl's eyes had been replaced by squirming white, and her limbs had turned into eerie red tentacles, which looked like they had enlarged her skin.
The girl walked up to her and said that she stretched out a tentacle and touched her heart, and said, "I hope your words will satisfy me, or I will make up for my wasted time by letting you die a painful death." β
"What do you think of us players?"
The girl looked slightly angry, tightened the tentacles on her neck, and asked, "What does this have to do with what you are trying to tell me?" β
Jiang Jiu was not suddenly forced, and he gasped several times before continuing: "This is very important. I need to know what you think of us to decide which item I use, and you want to get it back to the way it was, right? β
When the girl heard the word "props", her white eyes turned, and she approached the tentacles in Jiang Jiuwei's heart, and said: "In our eyes, you are like travelers from another world, and a group of them will come every once in a while, your strength is uneven, and the weapons you use are also strange, but the combat effectiveness is generally not strong, and ordinary wizards can deal with it." β
"Well, thank you."

Jiang Jiu didn't feel the restraint on his body disappear, he stood up, watched the space around him continue to fold and transform, and finally returned to the four black walls at the beginning of the game, and words began to flow in front of him.

[Status: "The murmur of a devout believer"]
[Evaluation: The popular queen doesn't rely on her appearance? ] γ
Jiang Jiu didn't feel that he should be able to get a lot of points with his popularity, but he didn't expect that so much would have exceeded the sum of his various tasks.
To her surprise, the "pious murmur" didn't disappear after the game ended, making her even more curious about who had given her this god-like state.
Jiang Jiuwei looked at that NE's evaluation, and always felt that he hadn't fully understood this witchcraft world, and the task time had already come to an end, so he decided to focus on exploration next time.
Before she could think about it, the scene in front of her changed again, and she appeared in an elevator.
Jiang Jiu did not get to the elevator, and found that the buttons that originally indicated the floor had become long strips, which are currently open: World Store, My Residence, Entertainment Block, Entertainment Block, and World Forum......
Although she also wanted to get some more detailed information about the world herself, the more important issue at hand was to figure out what she could buy with the 9634 points she had.
Jiang Jiu didn't click on the "World Store", the elevator shook for a while, and the door was opened without any feeling of super weightlessness. She walked past the threshold and felt like she had entered a neon garden, surrounded by countless ornate walls of electricity.
And every wall was a purchase page, Jiang Jiu didn't get to the nearest wall to her, looked up, a little surprised, not because it was too expensive, but because the things on it were too cheap for her.
Simple daily necessities hardly exceed two points. Like daily fruits and vegetables, it is a random choice of points. This sudden wealth made her a little puzzled, and she walked many walls in a row, and found that even the furniture used for the decoration of "My Residence" was ridiculously cheap, rarely more than five points.
Jiang Jiu didn't find that there was no equipment area in the labeling of the entire shopping mall, only a prop area and a skill area. She walked thoughtfully to the skill area, only to have a feeling that prices were normal.
She glanced at the list of skills, looked at the somewhat frustrated Eternal Light, and asked, "Can I sell skills here?" β
[All skills in the skill area list are contributed by players, and the system is priced and can be bought and sold]
Jiang Jiu didn't return his hand to sell the "Eternal Light", the system only gave fifty points, frowned, and asked out loud, "Can I bargain?" β
System:???
[Selling skills to the system, the price is uniformly marked by the world game system, and cannot be changed]
She flipped through the list, the most expensive of these skills is only about two thousand points, it seems that so far, the comprehensive strength of all players is not too strong.
Jiang Jiu didn't choose to choose, and finally set his sights on a skill that was more suitable for him.
[Skill: Shackles of Desire (Price: 2000)]
[Type: Passive]
[Effect: When a player or character with charisma attribute lower than you attacks you, you will be reversed HP and SP damage based on the charisma difference between the two sides.] (Theoretical maximum: SSS vs. G, damage reversal: 95%)]
[Evaluation: Are you willing to touch me?] γ
[Seller's message: Woo woo, I feel that my C-level charm is really useless, but the high charm must be very strong, marked a high price, begging to buy! ] γ
The boss of the big asset Tojiang chopped off this hand on the spot and bought this skill in one bite. Then set his sights on a skill that was also at the highest price, and spent a lot of money.
[Skill: Back (Price: 2000)]
[Type: Passive]
[Effect: When you turn your back to the enemy, all of its pointing attacks will be invalidated, the time depends on the player's mental value, and the skill will enter the built-in cooldown for ten minutes after the time ends.] (Theoretical maximum: 30 seconds)γ
[Comment: Don't walk in my shadows.] γ
[Seller's message: Orange .jpg. γ
Jiang Jiu didn't feel that with these two skills, his survivability directly reached the peak of the short term, and decided to choose the next active skill. I scanned the shopping list and finally decided on it.
[Skill: Red in Blood (Price: 1000)]
[Type: Active]
[Effect: After the skill is enabled, all your attacks will have a bleeding effect, and the duration depends on the difference in mental value (theoretical maximum: infinite)]
[Cooldown: 12 hours.] γ
[Seller's message: Bloodletting scene, berserker do not disturb. γ
Jiang Jiu didn't buy the skills, and was about to go to the props area again, but found a reminder popping up in the system.
[Player Fang Fengran applies to add a friend and invites you to his residence as a guest]
Jiang Jiu didn't click to confirm, and the scene around him changed again, and he arrived in a small courtyard full of rural decoration. When she looked up, Fang Fengran was wearing a panda apron, looking funny and cute, and in front of her was a table of peasant specialties.
"You're ......"
"Hey, hey... Boss, the points are in hand, please have a meal and celebrate! β
Jiang Jiuwei nodded, indicating that it was understandable, a little curious about him pretending to be like this, but he didn't ask, and said casually: "How many points did you get?" β
"One thousand sixteen, I feel that I am old and rich, how much are you, boss? Not more than 3,000! β
Jiang Jiuwei didn't expect him to have so few points, he was a little surprised, and replied, "More than four thousand six hundred." β
Fang Fengran put the plate on the table, stretched out his hand to signal Jiang Jiuwei to sit down, nodded in surprise, and said, "It seems that the final task has been completed, and a lot has been given." β
"Just spent 5,000 on skills."
Fang Fengran: ???
