Chapter 109: Bloody Mary (18 thanks to all readers for their tips)
"If nothing else, this should be a detective."
"The night that never sleeps, the day I went to the old city, maybe I was noticed by this detective, so I had that feeling of being spied on."
"Moreover, at that time, he had already reached the second turn of career, and he faintly brought me a sense of threat from the [Demon]."
"Could it be...... This guy's profession is [Demon Detective]? ”
If this is really the profession, Chen Ye has to be cautious about it.
In all second-turn classes......
[Demon Detective] and [Devil Chef] belong to the same echelon, and both have good combat abilities while taking care of a functional profession.
Both have the combat ability of the [Demon] sequence.
But here's the difference......
[Devil Chef] has an additional characteristic of handling devil ingredients in the characteristics of combat, which can play a certain degree of restraint in the profession that is also a [demon] sequence.
"No wonder I felt the threat of being watched by the devil that day. Detective plus demon, heh, is this a profession to find the suspect and then execute him on the spot? ”
"However, since I merged into a second-turn career, that feeling has disappeared."
"This is because the [Devil Chef] has the characteristic of restraining the [Demon], if it is not a higher-order [Demon], it can only be regarded as a dish on the plate at most."
"If you have an encounter with that guy, then my traits will have an advantage."
"However, the information and intelligence ability of [Detective] is far stronger than that of [Chef]. Although the conflict between players is not so obvious at the moment, if it develops to the later stage, there is often a battle, and it will be well prepared in advance. [Detective] can know the information of the other party through characteristics such as profiling, so as to make targets. ”
"Moreover...... compared to other detective professions, [Demon Detective] can also sacrifice to certain existences, so as to obtain the desired intelligence information by means beyond common sense."
Chen Ye couldn't help but think of the gray air mass that kept hitting when he first entered the store.
But this thing ...... Not a Demon...... There is no physical ......
It's not like the trait ability that can be made by the [Demon] sequence.
Unless...... This demon detective has more characteristics than just this class.
It can also manipulate invisible beings.
If that's the case, even if you have the trait of restraining the [Demon] sequence, you have to be extremely careful.
Chen Ye clasped his hands on his chest, a meaningful smile appeared on his face, and said:
"Yes, I do have such an item on me, but why should I agree to a deal?"
"The exchange of special items with special items is equivalent at best, and it is clear that your boss and I are competitors."
"While this thing does work for me, wouldn't it be a threat to me if I gave him what he wanted?"
"As for exchanging perk items...... He should know that I have a good reputation on the public screen. If I post a request, I should still be able to find what I want. If you can find a better option, why profit your most threatening competitors? ”
"The boss expected you to use such a rhetoric......"
Gently frowning, Miko sighed, as if she was tired of this tedious work, she lowered her head and pulled out another note, glanced at it, and then spoke:
"The boss seems to be very confident in the goods in his hands, indicating that the whole city of destiny is the only one that best fits your career path. By the way, let me add that he's bored with this list battle and has no interest in inheriting this month's talent. And for this paradise, for this pollution, he has other things that he wants to get more, maybe there is a chance to cooperate......"
After Yako finished reading, she breathed a sigh of relief, and it seemed like a very difficult task to fluently relay such a long and complicated passage.
Chen Ye was silent for a moment.
Then, he turned around and wrote a sentence in the third line of rules—
[Diners entering the restaurant must remain honest and truthful, otherwise they will be punished for eating.] 】
After the third rule was written, the gilt font on it shone with a golden glow.
Indicates that this rule has come into effect.
At the same time, as Chen Ye's mind moved slightly, the plaque above the door of the store appeared with four new words-
【Honest Restaurant】
Chen Ye opened the door of the store and said with a smile:
"Now, I think we can come in and talk!"
…………
Half an hour later.
Chen Ye's shop has an extra row of wooden tables and stools, and in the center of the table are glass wine glasses filled with blood-colored liquid.
The tables and stools here come from the characteristics of the [parasitic title deed], and since the real estate has become a part of Chen Ye's body, he only needs to move his mind to change the decoration here.
At this time, Chen Ye's mind recalled the conversation he had with Miko after entering the store just now.
The information that had been exchanged before was re-exchanged, and it was confirmed that it was all true.
Including that boss is not interested in the competition for the list......
Chen Ye had already guessed the identity of the other party, and nine times out of ten it was Bai Chen.
The characteristic of [Detective] can obtain strange values when digging up hidden information or making correct analysis.
At present, the feeling that this city gives Chen Ye is indeed full of many secrets.
Why is the list open?
Why do all players get a new identity when they arrive?
Why is it called Destiny City? Where did these copies come from? Why is the Xijiang River polluted? What about large public copies......
Many questions lingered in Chen Ye's mind, and he would not simply believe that it was just a game.
So, who made the rules behind it, and for what purpose?
Chen Ye is also aware of these problems, so this is one of the reasons why he would consider working with detectives......
Of course.
As for what he said, he was not interested in the battle for the list, and Chen Ye did not believe it all.
After all, this is what the "boss" asked Yako to repeat, and she just said it according to these contents, and it does not involve the issue of integrity and untruthfulness.
But Chen Ye changed his question, and he asked Mizi: "Do you think what the boss said is not interested, is it from the heart?" ”
At that time, Miko hesitated, in fact, if she didn't want to lie, she could avoid the question.
But Miko thought about it and nodded, "I think he is sincere." ”
didn't violate the rules of the store, and didn't trigger the "punishment of being eaten", which means that she really thinks so.
From Miko's point of view, the "boss" is really not interested in the competition for the list.
Under the rules of the store, Miko has confirmed that her identity is indeed a strange aborigine, and the player should be an outsider in her eyes...... It will not be so short to gain trust, and it can be treated with a more objective and rational attitude.
To be honest, in the face of players at the top of the leaderboard, Chen Ye's attitude will be more cautious and cautious. But he didn't completely turn away any contact, after all, this city of destiny has many unsolved mysteries that can turn into a devastating disaster at any moment, threatening all players.
Under the condition of common interests and survival needs, there may not be no opportunities to cooperate with other players.
"Heh, but this guy is really good at business."
Chen Ye stared at the Bloody Mary in the glass and couldn't help but shake his head and smile.
That's right, such a characteristic item can indeed be fused with [Wandering Musician].
But not immediately......
It's the same material for the second career.
At present, due to the lack of a necessary characteristic condition, Bloody Mary is temporarily unable to absorb.
Bloody Mary is a psychedelic property that seems to be the signature drink of the café, but if you drink it rashly, it is extremely addictive, and once you stop swallowing it, it will be extremely uncomfortable, and if you take it for a long time, you will lose your self-consciousness and become a puppet to be controlled.
Although Chen Ye did not lose anything, it was obvious that the "boss" was able to enjoy the new trait and ability granted by fusing [Giant's Neck Meat] more quickly.
And Chen Ye has to find another material to realize the second turn of [Wandering Musician].
In this transaction, the "boss" looks like he is going to make a little more money.
But......
What Yako said was right.
The glazed brilliance emitted by the Bloody Mary is unusually bright, and most of the previous characteristic items, although they have a similar luster, cannot be compared.
As he raised his glass, a faint line of glass stretched out along the door of the store, creating a slow-flowing torrent of energy at the front of his vision, as if directing the direction of the remaining material.
The corners of his mouth hooked:
"Although I didn't get the new characteristics right away, the second turn of [Wandering Musician] has eyebrows!"
Just follow the direction of this glass to find ......
Perhaps, it won't take long to find the materials to promote [Wandering Musician] to a second-turn profession.
[Wanderer] As a natal profession drawn at the beginning, what kind of second turn can be fused......
In this regard, Chen Ye has more expectations!
Noon.
The blood mist receded completely, and the streets of Paradise were deserted again, with only a few numb figures wandering around like lonely spirits.
Even the giant blood-colored eyes of that day were gone, except for the hazy blood-colored curtain of the surrounding shops, everything else was no different from the usual pedestrian street.
Chen Ye confirmed that there was no danger, and immediately pushed open the door of the store, and left the paradise in the direction guided by the glazed lines......
