Life as a Landlord in Global Games

Chapter 114 Transfer of Troubles

Under the cloud platform, Jiang Ke sat there quietly, with Cui Jue sitting next to him.

On the cloud platform, Zhou Qinyi and Li Yi's dance has attracted cheers from many women.

With the incomparable sound and light special effects and the cheating of the shoes, every step and every movement they make can hit the beat exactly.

It is simply a textbook dance performance.

Jiang Ke sighed:

"You are indeed a divine messenger. The special effects on this stage are really good. Cui Jue, don't you think so?"

"..."

Cui Jue pursed her lips and said nothing.

She looked at the sky, her spiritual red phoenix eyes were full of confusion, and even Jiang Ke could clearly see a circle of golden light around her pupils.

It looks... almost like there is a second hidden eye.

Out of curiosity, Jiang Ke gritted her teeth and made a decision - quietly, she used her ability to impart knowledge.

This ability, combined with the skills learned from Yingxing Chu, was able to barely capture some detailed thoughts.

It was fear and uneasiness...

Even with just a little bit of emotion, Jiang Ke felt that his heart became extremely heavy, as if hundreds of big rocks had fallen.

You must know that when facing Cui Jue, Jiang Ke never feels her thoughts.

"Why is this? Such heavy thoughts...is this something ordinary people can have?"

Jiang Ke was confused. Just when she wanted to feel it carefully again, this thought had quietly disappeared.

Cui Jue looked at her, blinked slightly, and the strange vision in his eyes disappeared.

"It's very rude to peek into her heart, A'ke."

"..."

After a few seconds of silence, Jiang Ke was about to say something, but Cui Jue shook his head.

"Don't ask, now is not the time. If you ask too early, I will be confused."

"Your tone is similar to his.

A strange person once told me to be careful about time. Is there anything you can teach me?"

Although it was just "him", Jiang Ke believed that Cui Jue knew who it was.

Hearing this, Cui Jue hesitated for a moment. Instead of answering the question, she asked a question:

"How many colorful cards do you think there are in total?"

This question is very strange, but Jiang Ke still clearly remembers the introduction when he got the landlord card——

[Only five were produced]

So, she tentatively said:

"Five?"

Regarding this answer, Cui Jue just nodded noncommittally. She looked at the sky and her eyes stayed in a certain direction for a few seconds.

"Then you have also met Zhao Ting and Zhou Qinyi. Don't you think there is some difference between your card and their two names?"

This is indeed true. One is called "Chaotic Time" and the other is called "The Illusion of the End".

The one that only belongs to you is called the apartment landlord card...

Although I don't think he is as good as those two in terms of strength, in fact, he is much better than them.

"The names are indeed quite different. Why is that?"

After raising this question, Jiang Ke's hands trembled a little.

She was excited, she felt like she could get a little bit of the truth about the matter.

Even just a little bit was enough to dispel some of the doubts in her heart.

"I can't tell you its real name yet...but what I can tell you is..."

Cui Jue suddenly grabbed Jiang Ke's hand. She moved closer to Jiang Ke and whispered in Jiang Ke's ear:

"One of your ultimate facilities is called the 'Tianyan Laboratory'.

Its function is to modify the game rules of an area according to your will."

"How is it possible? How can players change the rules of the game?"

Although Jiang Ke expressed surprise, she actually knew that Zhao Ting had used the Promised Land to transform the rules of an area in her previous life.

"How is it impossible? You know there are precedents."

Her answer made Jiang Ke feel his head hurt even more. Jiang Ke rubbed his eyebrows and said in a deep voice:

"...I really hate the Riddler.

Cui Jue, if you really continue to riddle like this, I might consider asking Xiaofen and the others to help imprison you."

It was a half-truth and half-false statement, intended to scare Cui Jue, but the latter's eyes suddenly lit up.

She nodded immediately and said:

"Okay, okay, can you imprison me in your room?"

The tone was so exciting that the listeners simply shuddered.

"..."

A chill hit him, and Jiang Ke moved his body unconsciously, sitting a little further away from Cui Jue.

Seeing Jiang Ke's reaction, Cui Jue smiled as if the prank had succeeded.

Jiang Ke only felt tired.

She knew that she could no longer ask anything, and for some reason, she was unwilling to force Cui Jue.

So, she took the initiative to change the topic.

"What agreement did you and Qin Yun make? Is there really something in the ash volcano that can resurrect people?"

"No, I lied to her."

Someone said confidently.

"...lied to her?"

"Yeah, if I didn't lie to her, how could she be so interested and come here."

Cui Jue took a plate of Azeroth fruit from the side, picked it up and ate a piece.

Said vaguely:

"The resurrection of the dead is too magical and impossible to do."

As she spoke, she took a piece and motioned Jiang Ke to open her mouth wide, as if she was ready to feed him.

Jiang Ke opened his mouth and accepted her feeding.

While tasting this wonderful texture, he wondered:

"But let's not talk about the Holy Fire Crystal Tree in the apartment. Didn't you save someone last time?"

Cui Jue reluctantly swallowed the food in her mouth. She looked at Jiang Ke and said nonchalantly:

"Yes, but this is in the game, and her brother died before the game was launched.

The red moon and the earthquake were the symbols of the first version. Although there was no announcement, that was when the game started.

You said, how can the props in the game save people who die in reality?"

Jiang Ke nodded unconsciously and agreed:

"This is indeed..."

But as soon as she said the words, her eyes suddenly opened wide.

She thought... her apartment card seemed to have appeared before the red moon, right?

The game hadn't started yet?

So...how did it become an apartment?

She was stunned for a moment.

Cui Jue seemed not to notice that Jiang Ke suddenly froze, and continued:

"In religion, resurrection of the dead is a category of miracles and miracles, right? If resurrection can happen in reality, then it is indeed something that can only be accomplished by miracles.

Miracles are the treasures that people long for."

After saying that, she didn't care whether Jiang Ke heard it or not, so she stood up directly. Without disturbing Jiang Ke, who was meditating, she wandered away.

Well, she feels good about herself now.

She didn't break her promise and actually told Jiang Ke the name of the card.

Although I didn't say my full name, I still told you.

Instead of letting her struggle alone, it is better to tell Jiang Ke some news and let Jiang Ke struggle with her.

Only when we share adversity can we have a deep relationship.

There is only one update today, and I want to sing karaoke with my friends... Although I am tone-deaf, the important thing is to participate!
