Chapter 58: Ghost City
Private lounge.
Tao Nai looked at the warm and friendly lounge and was in a trance for a while, feeling as if he had returned to the real world.
"Players don't immediately come back to the real world when they come out of the game, they go to the public lounge first, and then they can choose whether to go back to the real world or stay in the ghost market." Ji Xiaoyue's voice sounded faintly, "So you don't have to doubt that you haven't returned to the real world yet." ”
She was also a newcomer, so you can probably guess what Taunai is thinking now.
"What is a ghost market?" Xiang Qiu asked.
"I don't know. There are many players living in the ghost market, and there are also many ghosts. Ji Xiaoyue explained simply, "The ghost market is divided into two areas, one is the area where the players live, called the Guangming District. The other area is the area where the goblins are located, called the Dark Zone. ”
"Then why would some players choose to stay in the ghost market?" Taunai frowned suspiciously.
She thinks that no normal person would want to live with ghosts!
Ji Xiaoyue: "You should note that the lifespan shown in your profile is not very long. Those who can enter the game are actually people who have not lived for a long time. ”
Taunai immediately opened his personal panel.
After leaving the dungeon, all negative statuses will be cleared at once.
The information shows that she still has 10 days left to live, but all other values have changed except for her lifespan and age.
[HP: 70/100]
[Stamina: 50/100]
[Spirit: 55/100]
[Intelligence: 90/100]
[Lucky Value: 11/100]
[Personal Skill Points: 3]
[Initial Points: 27300]
[Ghost Coins: 7580]
[Personal overall score: D+]
Seeing his points and ghost coins, Tao Nai's heart was comforted, but the 10-day lifespan was still somewhat dazzling.
"My profile shows that I only have 5 days to live. But I only got 2000 points as a reward, which can't buy many days of life! Xiang Qiu loved to grab his hair as soon as he collapsed, "Sister Xiaoyue, what should I do." ”
"There will be no lifespan in the dungeon, and there is no other way than to continue to enter the dungeon to earn points and continue to live." Ji Xiaoyue patiently answered.
"Sister Xiaoyue, then why would anyone want to stay in the ghost market?" Tao Nai asked, while opening the Hades Mall to check the items he had obtained.
The item backpack column shows +2, and the gift pack column shows +1.
She clicked into the prop backpack first.
[Item Name: Worn Bronze Statue Fragment (Transformed by the Hunger Ghost's Obsession, Obtained by Completing the Final Mission) Level: ??? Uses: Unknown (need to find out in person). 】
[Item Name: Upgraded Silver Scalpel (Instead of the original scalpel, obtained by completing difficult tasks.] Level: Intermediate item. Uses: Can deal physical damage to goblins of intermediate level and below. 】
"Because time flows more slowly in ghost markets than in the real world. One day in the ghost market is equal to two days in the outside world. Lifespan is not easy to come by, so many players choose to prefer to live in a ghost city. Ji Xiaoyue said, her tone paused, and she looked at Tao Nai, "Tao Nai, you have gained a lot of points this time, you can exchange some more lifespans, stay in the real world for a few more days, and it is not too late to enter the dungeon." ”
"Sister Xiaoyue, do you need to find a place to live by yourself if you stay in the ghost city?" Taunai is looking at her bag.
Those two items made her feel a little disappointed, but there were quite a few things in the gift bag.
There are two display accelerators that increase movement speed, two bottles of spiritual restorer, and a golden bell jar that can withstand high-level goblin attacks.
These are all very practical.
"You want to stay in Ghost City?" Ji Xiaoyue was stunned, "If you disappear in the real world for too long, your family and friends will be worried." ”
Tao Nai raised his head and looked at Ji Xiaoyue, with a shallow smile on the corner of his lips: "I grew up in a welfare home since I was a child, and I also lived in a mental hospital for a few years during this period, and I have no family or friends. ”
Looking at Tao Nai's sweet and bright smile, Ji Xiaoyue and Xiang Qiu were silent.
It's obviously a very sad thing, but now that it's out of the mouth of the girl in front of me, it's so easy and indifferent.
It's supposed to have been through too much suffering, so I don't care, right?
Ji Xiaoyue thought of Tao Nai's previous performance in the game, this girl seemed timid, but many decisions were made boldly and decisively.
Now that I think about it, it was not recklessness, but a strong will and decision-making power that was tempered by a life of suffering.
"In fact, there are many places in the ghost market that are no different from the real world, and you need to pay ghost coins for food, clothing, housing and transportation. If you want to stay here, you can share an apartment with me. Ji Xiaoyue said.
"Can you bring me one?" Xiang Qiu looked at Ji Xiaoyue with longing, his lifespan was too short, so he didn't plan to return to the real world now.
Ji Xiaoyue glanced at Qiu coldly: "I only have one extra room there." ”
Xiang Qiu's shoulders immediately collapsed: "Okay then." ”
"Let's go back to the apartment now." Ji Xiaoyue stood up and said, "Although the private lounge is safer than the public lounge. But it's hard to guarantee that Wang Chai won't find here, he is a very grudgeful person, and this time Tao Nai completely offended him. ”
Taunai nodded slowly.
At this time, in the room behind the studio hall.
The fur was shiny, and the fat black cat was trembling and prostrate on the ground, and its ears were turned behind its head to become airplane ears.
"At the beginning, I wanted you to become Dean Shen, and for this reason, I also reshaped the skin for Dean Shen, but at the critical moment, I don't know what happened, my claws shook, you ......."
Before the black cat could finish speaking, a large, thin and pale hand lifted it up with the flesh of its neck.
"She got into my being." The man sat on the couch, his low, hoarse voice drowning in cold danger.
"Meow?!" The black cat raised her head in shock, her pupils almost straight line, "What the hell is that newcomer?" ”
"This newcomer must be removed, and I will still enter the next dungeon myself. If you fail because of your stupidity, I'll chop off your claws. ”
The black cat nodded its head wildly, and for the sake of its claws, it would never dare to make a mistake.
Putting the black cat on the ground, Shang Ming lowered his head and glanced at the back of his hand.
There was a tear-shaped red mark on the back of his pale hand, which looked a little inexplicably glaring.
The girl's provocation and arrogance before disappearing couldn't help but come to mind, and Shang Ming's thin lips slowly hooked up a cold and sadistic arc.
The arrogant little guy, next time, will not have such good luck to escape.
