What’s Wrong With Seeking Death?
Chapter 92:
Xu Tuoran opened his eyes in the sound of the phone's alarm.
She was sitting on a chair when she entered the domain, but when she woke up, she had fallen to the ground. The backpack full of abominable props was thrown aside, and the corner of the bag had been stained dark with red ink.
Xu Tuoran struggled to sit up from the ground, and couldn't help hissing. The damage suffered by human beings in the domain tends to be greatly weakened after leaving. Even so, Xu Turan still has his forehead buzzing with pain.
Both hands are fine. The cut marks are completely gone, and the chilblains and blisters have all disappeared, but the skin is still a little red. However, the muscles are really sore, and the whole person seems to be falling apart.
She was also in a poor state of mind, groggy and extremely tired. She couldn't help but reached out and touched her forehead, not wanting to touch the dried blood.
Xu Tuoran: "..."
Fragments of memories flooded into my mind. Xu Tuoran was stunned for a moment, and slowly moved his hand up to the top of his head, feeling a soft touch from his fingertips.
Yes, she remembered. At that time, because she took too much medicine from Yang Buqi, the top of her head grew...something grew on the top of her head, and then she was cut off in half by herself in an abnormally rational state and used it as a sacrifice...
The thing that grows has no feeling, except that it will hurt the scalp when pulled, but it doesn't bring any unnecessary pain. However, the blood actually spewed out, making Xu Tuan's head and face bruised.
Xu Tuoran recalled that scene for a while, and belatedly felt his scalp tingling. She mustered up the courage to get up from the ground, went to the bathroom to wash off the blood on her face, and took a closer look in the mirror, and more memories began to come back.
Of the pair of things growing on the head, only two short pieces remained. Perhaps it was because he had already left the domain, or because he had already taken medicine in the domain, and the wound had already healed well. Looking at it from the front, it looks like two fluffy little horns.
...But then again, why did I grow such a thing?
Xu Tuoran looked at himself in the mirror, with a look of surprise and uncertainty. She remembered that what she saw at that time seemed to be a pair of rabbit ears... She threw them in to make up for the lack of offerings...
Wait, no.
Xu was startled in vain.
At that time, the rule I made was "you can use abominations as sacrifices", that is to say, ordinary life sacrifices can still work. The problem is, the general life sacrifices are very demanding, such a thin pair of "ears", no two taels of meat, or adulteration, can this be counted?
Is my rune array sure to work?
Thinking of this, Xu Tuoran's heart skipped a beat, he hurriedly staggered back to the room, opened his backpack and searched carefully. Fang heaved a sigh of relief after turning to the sealed box that was tightly covered and exuding a strong aura.
Well, the bug is indeed here. Don't panic.
Xu Tuoran closed his eyes and looked at the other things in the bag. Soon he couldn't bear to look directly and looked away.
Tragic, too tragic. Some of them are so bad that they can't be put together, and it's unknown whether they can grow well.
Fortunately, the harvest this time is quite rich. A Chen-level abomination should be able to exchange for many more useful props after submission. It's not in vain for her to put in so much effort, and even kryptonite...
Wait a moment.
Xu Tueran froze suddenly, and his drowsy brain suddenly felt a chill.
She...how much did she krypton?
Xu Turan only felt his head buzzing, and opened his mouth involuntarily, suddenly feeling unreal as if he hadn't woken up from a nightmare.
When he wanted to call up the death value panel to take a look, he didn't have the courage, so he sat down on the ground, covered his face in silence for a long time, finally made up his mind, and took a look at the current death value situation.
…With just one glance, Xu Tuoran felt a little suffocated.
The current death value is 25,500.
It looks like a lot, and it is taller than before she entered the domain. However, Xu Tuoran remembered very clearly that when she was in the domain, the highest death value reached more than 46,000.
...She also remembers very clearly that in an irrational state, she lost 25,000 krypton in one go.
And as the price for washing points, some "handling fees" must have been deducted, which actually added up to 26,000. In the end, only 5,000 was returned—rounding up, it was equivalent to a loss of more than 20,000.
No, not right. It can't be counted that way.
Xu vainly settled down and comforted himself in his heart. The expenditure of 260,000 was to deal with the Chen-level domain master. Among them, Ice Eighteen, Ice No. 7, and Absolute Kingship are all actually used in battles. Puzzling...Although the impact of Puzzling and Puzzling is not obvious, Xu Turan is willing to believe that it must have played some role.
More than 1,000 laundering fees are also hard expenses. So after all, the real loss is only the 5,000 added to the "Unfortunate Rabbit's Leg".
Well, only five thousand.
Only five thousand... that's all.
Xu Turan was silent for a while, couldn't help it, and buried his face in his palm again.
Fuck his father. Worth five Grizzly figurines.
Xu Tuoran fell into deep depression. While feeling depressed, he forced himself to pick up his phone and started replying to the unread text messages he had received in the past few days. Then he sent another message to Yang Buqi.
On the one hand, it was to report safety, and on the other hand, it was because today happened to be the day when she and Zhu Tang made an appointment to go to the comic exhibition. And long before Xu Tuoran was about to enter the domain, he had already greeted Yang Buqi, and asked him to find a reason to ask for leave if he didn't come back in time. Now that he's back, he doesn't have to work hard for Yang Buqi to lie.
Speaking of that manga exhibition, it is a rare piece of good news—the flow of time in the domain is different from the reality. According to the original schedule, Xu Tuoran's return today happens to be the last day of the manga exhibition.
When she saw the mutilated ear on the top of her head, she thought that she would not be able to go there, and she was quite disappointed. Unexpectedly, I just saw the news from Zhu Tang, saying that the comic exhibition was postponed for one day due to the heavy rain, and she still had a chance to catch tomorrow's show.
Of course, the premise is that she can solve the extra things on the U-turn before the comic exhibition tomorrow.
Therefore, in the message Xu Tueran sent to Yang Buqi, he also hinted euphemistically that he might need some help.
Not long after the news was sent out, Yang Buqi called.
"Hello?" Yang Buqi's voice came through the phone, and the background sound was a bit noisy, "Xu Tuoran? Are you okay? What's the specific condition of the stump you mentioned? Does it hurt?"
"Well... it hurts but it doesn't hurt. It's just that I don't know how to take it off now." Xu Tuoran didn't expect Yang Buqi's call to come so fast, and he organized his words while talking, "It grew on my head, Like a bunny ear...but now there's just a little bit of the root."
"Rabbit ears?" Yang Buqi on the other end of the phone paused, apparently he didn't expect Xu Tuoran to have such things, "And why are there only roots left? Was it pulled by a monster?"
Xu Tuoran: "..."
You may not believe it, but I cut it myself.
"It's not important." Xu Tuoran changed the subject decisively, "The important thing is how to get rid of it... I have to go out to play tomorrow."
"If it's convenient, I'll come to you tonight." Yang Buqi thought for a while, and said, "I have experience with this kind of problem. Use poison to make it necrotic, fall off by itself, and then apply some repair agent and hair growth potion on the hair." Yes. Don't worry, it will be soon."
Hearing what he said, Xu Tuoran was really relieved: "That's good."
After a short pause, she asked curiously again: "Long rabbit ears...is it weird?"
"It's a bit." Yang Buqi said honestly, "I haven't encountered this kind of thing before. Generally, the organs that grow out are the organs that the human body already has... But it's hard to say, because I haven't given any beast-like abilities to people in the past. Tried."
But for beast-like ability users, it seems quite normal to grow some ears, tails and small wings.
After thinking about it, he comforted him again: "On the bright side, it's just a pair of ears. It's quite easy to pick them off."
What I am most afraid of is actually the growth of organs such as eyes and mouths that are not easy to peel off. And if it grows inside the body, it will be even more troublesome. This is not something that can be solved by applying medicine directly.
Hearing what he said, Xu Tuoran felt better. The background sound on Yang Buqi's side rang a little more, and a few angry reprimands could be heard vaguely. Yang Buqi sighed: "I'm sorry. I really can't leave now, so I can only help you deal with it at night."
"It's okay, it's okay, you are busy with your work." Xu Tuoran said immediately, "I was the one who troubled you..."
No, Yang Buqi was silent for a while after hearing this.
After a few seconds, he heard him whisper: "For you, there is nothing troublesome."
Xu Tuoran: "?"
"And I'm not busy here." Before Xu Tuoran could respond, Yang Buqi changed the subject as a cover-up, "It's just that I have to stay here and watch."
"..."
Xu Tuoran knew Yang Buqi's temperament, and he seldom touched fish when he was working seriously, so he asked casually, "Are you observing?"
"No, I'm observing." Seeing that she didn't follow up on the previous sentence, Yang Buqi's tone became relaxed again, "The Renxinyuan captured a super-level abomination and wanted us to help make a prop seal. Now those Those with the ability to order are grinding against it."
Because he was afraid of any accidents during the process, he kept guarding on the sidelines. As for how long he will stay, Yang Buqi himself does not know.
"Item seal..." Xu Tuoran said thoughtfully. She had heard this word in training class. To put it simply, it is to try to fix the abominable object on an item, so that the abominable object can use the characteristics of that item to exert part of its power.
Like Xu Tuoran's supernatural props, most of them are "props seals". The most typical example is the pen of the pen fairy. Its body is not a pen at all, but locked on the pen. Correspondingly, it can also use the characteristics of the "pen" to express itself.
Compared with containers such as sealed boxes, "Prop Seal" is actually a less stable form. The supernatural props sold in Old Man Jiang's shop are often quite risky. There are quite a few people who can use tools for themselves, but more people are backlashed by tools because of improper use.
...Of course, Xu Tuoran is the only one in the store who can bury tools in batches at once.
Xu Turan's head hurts again when he thinks of his bag of psychic props that are torn apart. After the pain, it was a little strange: "After the capture is completed, doesn't it mean that it has been sealed? Why do you need another seal?"
"The seal box was used for capture." Yang Buqi's tone revealed a bit of subtlety, "Renxinyuan thinks that the utilization rate is low."
Although the sealing box is efficient, it will completely isolate the abomination from the outside world, and the power of the abomination cannot be used by outsiders. From the perspective of Renxinyuan, this seems a bit "wasteful".
Yang Buqi actually doesn't like this kind of thing. You must know that the method of "props sealing" appeared because some powerful and abominable things like to attach to objects, and the ability user can't force them out, so they can only seal them together with the object. There is no way.
However, in order to pursue the so-called "utilization rate", Renxinyuan took the initiative to release the abominations that had been locked in the sealed box... Isn't it just looking for trouble?
It also increases people's workload for nothing.
"And if you really want to pursue utilization, you can just go to old man Jiang's shop directly. You want us to outsource... This is not our strong point." Yang Buqi couldn't help rubbing the center of his brows as he said.
When Xu Turan heard the words, he straightened up suddenly.
"What do you mean by that? Are Taobao stores better at this?"
"Well, that's how their products come from." Yang Buqi said, "It is said that Taobao Store has its own method of sealing props, and the method is relatively mature. The 'props' produced are relatively high in stability and quality."
Xu Tuoran thought of the ones he had bought before, and nodded in agreement: "Then why did Ren Xin Yuan look for you?"
"Because we don't need money." Yang Buqi was quite honest, "The processing fee of Taobao shop is very expensive."
Xu Tuoran: "..."
Don't say it, it's really justified.
Just at this time, there were a few more human voices in the background sound, followed by someone's "ah". Yang Buqi said "someone is hurt" and immediately hung up the phone.
Xu Tuoran sat on the spot, thought for a moment, and then turned his attention back to his backpack again.
Everything in the backpack has been taken out. Xu Tuoran inspected the past one by one with his eyes - the one with the most tragic appearance is the pen of the pen fairy, the half-exploded pen tube is still bubbling ink, followed by the **** Polaroid, which has been completely broken into pieces, and the cracked camera Inside, a clump of dry black hair was exposed.
The infinite vitamin pill bottle looks fine from the outside. But when you open the bottle cap, you will find that there is no medicine in it. A face with blurred facial features was exposed at the bottom of the medicine bottle, and it would collapse and start screaming when it saw the light.
The Mirror of Chaos was completely shattered, only the frame was still good. The whole body of the fire flashlight seemed to be scorched, and the center of the flashlight was pitch black, no matter how much you pressed it, it would not light up. When the teddy bear was taken out, its own machete was stuck in its head, piercing through from head to toe, with a hole in its mouth, and a large handful of cotton leaked out.
...In comparison, the fox ornament only has a broken tail, which is not bad. It's just that it is covered with cobweb-like cracks, so Xu Tuoran doesn't dare to touch it now.
Xu Tuoran knew that most of these supernatural props could repair themselves. But at this level, she really dare not say whether it can be repaired.
If it doesn't work, you can only trade it in for a new one.
Xu Tuoran sighed secretly, arranged everything, sat on the chair, closed his eyes, and called up the death value interface in his mind.
—The physical props have been checked, and it is time to check the non-physical props.
Although the huge amount of death points spent this time is very heartbreaking, but fortunately there are still some gains. Xu Tuoran still has three rewards that can be unlocked by accumulating death points, which are 8,000 steps, a chaotic wick, and an item called "Faith Box".
8000 steps, Xu Tuoran is very familiar with this reward. As before, there is a usage limit for this number of steps, which is equivalent to using it in the Scourge Cemetery. And on the step coupon this time, "please pay attention to batch use" is also emphasized.
However, Xu Tuoran faintly felt that it was no longer a matter of dividing into batches or not—she had an inexplicable feeling that the recent self seemed not suitable for strolling in the natural disaster cemetery anymore.
It's not that I can't get in, nor that I don't want to go. It's just that I just feel a little uncomfortable, as if I was full from the last meal and haven't digested it yet, so I naturally know that it's not easy to eat again in the next few hours.
Therefore, Xu Tuoran temporarily put aside these surrogate steps. Then he started to study the "chaos wick".
Chaos Wick, used only by Chaos Tendencies. When entering the Path of Chaos, Xu Tuoran can choose to light the wick and summon a means of transportation. The transportation tool has an automatic navigation function, and the moving speed is definitely faster than walking, but every time it is used, it will inevitably bring about huge side effects. This backlash can only be borne by Xu Tuan himself.
Recalling the short fish riding trip and long climbing career brought to him by Haunted House No. 71, Xu Tuoran probably understood what happened to this means of transportation and its "side effects".
The mobility aid will remain on while the wick is burning, and disappear when it is off. The summoned transportation tool can travel up to 5,000 steps. The item description specifically emphasizes that it must not be used at one time.
Xu Turan thought so too. The last time she lit up the lamp, the price was that she broke her leg and had to use up all five thousand steps at once, fearing that she would fall directly to a high position and become paraplegic.
Looking at the "Faith Box" again, the relevant description is much more puzzling.
"...When there is a belief related to you in the limited area, the belief box can automatically mark it. You can choose whether to 'intercept' the specified belief...the belief intercepted in the box is the belief point..."
"If at the time of 'intercepting', the person corresponding to the belief is already in the state of 'death' or 'near death', the box will automatically extract any period of time before his death and store it in the box...you can use these time fragments , gain further faith points..."
"The more belief points you get, the more operations you can perform on time fragments..."
"Friendly reminder. What you see may not be real. But you can make them real."
"Faith points can be converted into the number of walking steps, and it is only applicable to areas of Hui level and above... Well, there is no requirement for inclination."
Xu Tuoran roughly read the description of the props, only to feel that his brain, which was not sober at first, became heavier.
To be honest, except for "faith points can be used to brush up the number of upgrade steps", I basically don't understand the rest.
She thought about it for a while, and decided to try it out by herself first. So within consciousness, I tried to call out the "belief box".
It was a translucent cuboid, and one could see the shining **** floating inside. There are not many spheres, sparse, and most of them are in a relatively dim state. There seems to be something moving inside the spheres, but they cannot be observed closely, nor can they be operated in any way.
The other kind of ball is much brighter, and the floating state is more active. Xu Tuoran tried to take a "closer" look, only to see that there were also vague black shadows moving among those balls.
She couldn't help but want to look more carefully, and as soon as she thought about it, a shining ball suddenly stuck in front of her eyes—
No, not right.
Xu vainly reacted abruptly. It wasn't that the ball approached her, but her perspective was dragged into the box and stuck tightly to the surface of the ball.
She tried to look inside the sphere, but her eyes seemed to be separated by a layer of gray membrane. As she watched, the film gradually faded away, revealing the scene inside the ball—
She saw an alley.
Narrow, narrow alleys. Very similar to Junk Alley in "New City", only dirtier.
In the depths of the alley, there is a row of houses, and all the doors are tightly packed together. One of the doors in the farthest corner opened, and a robot came out unsteadily, numbly closed the door behind him, and walked out along the alley.
Xu vainly froze for a moment. She recognized the robot. At that time, he was one of the people who called the omniscient **** around the pen of the pen fairy.
If I remember correctly, it seems to be Jason.
Why did Jason appear in his "faith box"? It couldn't be because he regarded himself as that "sage of flesh and blood", right?
Xu Furan couldn't help but feel a little ridiculous. She maintained a bird's-eye view, watching Jason shuffling out of the alley and onto a street. The originally empty scene, as he moved, gradually other people appeared.
Some picked up trash, and some returned from night shifts. They and Jason all seem to know each other and greet each other when they see each other. Xu Tuoran looked at all this curiously and confusedly. Seeing Jason walking along the street to the factory where he worked, the whole picture suddenly went dark.
Another moment. The scene inside the sphere lights up again, and the scene returns to the alley. The door at the end of the alley opened, and Jason came out again, closed the door with a numb gesture, and walked across the alley to the factory.
Xu Tuoran: "...?"
? ? ? what's the situation? Also play on loop?
She instinctively wanted to do it manually. This thought just popped up, and a few more lines suddenly appeared in my consciousness:
[Friendly reminder, only in the state of dreaming can one deeply enter the belief box and operate on time fragments. When performing operations, you will consume a certain amount of energy, and you will not be able to get the rest you deserve through sleep. When the operation is finished, the dream state will end immediately. 】
[If you want to enter the belief box deeply now, you will be forced to sleep. Would you like to enter now? 】
Xu Tuoran: "..."
She understood this passage. To put it bluntly, you can only enter when you are dreaming, and once you enter, it is equivalent to sleeping for nothing, and you have to waste your energy.
To be honest, Xu Tuoran is really curious about this belief box. However, she was already very tired, so she decided to forget it first.
Xu Tuoran adjusted his thoughts, and slowly opened his eyes. After a while, she sat up straight again and started the last and most important task.
Communicate the progress of the task with the Taobao store.
Xu Tuoran turned on the computer and boarded the forum. As soon as I went up, I saw private message notifications jumping up one after another on the interface. When I clicked on it, it was all inquiries from other people.
Whether it was Nike Chengjing and Flying Over Arkham who were playing games together, or Jiaojiao's father, Shiyue and Lao Wang from the co-creation domain, they all sent messages asking about her safety and situation.
It can be seen that the other three people have also left the domain smoothly. They are not only asking about safety—as people who have entered the domain, they will each describe their mission process to Party A. Everyone wanted to conceal their identities, so they all came here to ask if there was anything about Xu Turan that they had come into contact with but was inconvenient to disclose to the outside world.
I have to say, they are all very considerate.
Xu Tuoran quickly read the received messages, tapped the keyboard to reply one by one, followed by a private chat with customer service, and prepared to submit the results of this task.
Regarding the mission process, she didn't really want to describe it. Fortunately, the Taobao store didn't ask too much, and the staff who connected with it only asked about one thing:
[According to other people's description, when in the domain, there have been inexplicable changes. As a result, the conscious bodies and monsters in the domain fell into great panic and confusion. But none of them knew the cause of that change. 】
[May I ask what you know about this? 】
Xu Turan thought about it, but didn't hide it. He directly told about the existence of Hungry Fanfan and the fact that he made a big monster out of his nightmare. When asked about the image and characteristics of the monster, she was completely stunned.
Only then did she realize that she had never thought of what that "thing" looked like since she came back.
Obviously such a powerful and impressive existence. Obviously her props that were broken because of this were all placed on the table.
Xu Tuoran was silent for a while, and pressed the keyboard hesitantly.
[Sorry, I can't remember. 】She replied truthfully,【I just remember that it was a very cute and beautiful thing. 】
The docking staff: [...beautiful and cute? 】
【right. Anyway, it looks very pleasing to the eye. Shining like a star. 】Xu Tuoran described his impression as much as possible,【There is no more beautiful monster in the world than it. 】
Docking staff: ...
The other side was silent for a long time, apparently not knowing how to respond to Xu Tuoran's words.
When they started communicating again, the other party even gently reminded Xu Tuoran that the Taobao shop can also provide mental testing services, which are free benefits.
Xu Tuoran:?
Fortunately, the other party didn't dwell on this matter for too long, and soon changed the topic to the sealed box in Xu Tuoran's hand.
[Also, about the Chen-level abomination. Our tentative remuneration is as follows. You can see if it fits. If it doesn't fit, we can talk again. 】
Regarding the remuneration, the attitude of the other side is very sincere. It's no wonder that there aren't many Chen-level abominations. Those who can single-handedly kill and seal Chen-level abominations are even rarer. Xu Tuoran didn't know it through the network cable. When she told herself to pack the domain master and bring it back, the opposite side of the computer had already exploded.
A group of people put aside their work and gathered in front of the docking personnel's computer to watch forcefully. While watching, they were still discussing passionately, guessing what price Xu Tueran would drive.
"This big guy probably still needs props?" Someone speculated, "She doesn't need props all the time?"
"But she already has several lamps in her hand. Lamp-level props have high durability." Another person said, "Or it's H-level... Do we have more H-level props?"
"Let's make the list first. Mr. Jiang, you don't know yet. Be sure to give her what she wants."
"That's not necessarily true. The Chen-level abomination sounds awesome, but in reality it's a big problem in terms of management. She uses a sealed box, so it's definitely not easy to process it into a prop, and it might not be possible to sell it after processing it. Who Dare to accept..."
Someone was analyzing it seriously, and on the computer screen over there, a reply from Xu Tuoran suddenly jumped out.
[I don't need any other compensation. I just have one need. 】
[I hope you can process this abomination into props and give it to me as a reward. I can pay the processing fee separately. I can also post money if it's worth more as a prop than I'm entitled to. 】
[In short, I just want this thing. 】
Xu Tuoran's attitude was very clear.
Everyone watching in front of the computer was dumbfounded.
Just now, the employee who was still analyzing that no one dared to pick up this thing silently patted his face. The docking staff sitting in front of the computer was stunned for a while, and then began to reply:
【Are you serious? 】
Zhang Baixue: [Yes. 】
Docking staff: ...
[I can't make up my mind on this. You have to ask your superiors for instructions. ] After a pause for a few seconds, the contact person replied truthfully, [If you don’t mind, can I ask the reason? 】
…reason?
What reason?
Xu Tuoran, who was sitting in front of the computer, stared coldly at the sealed box next to him with a blank face.
... This guy caused me to waste 5,000 death points, so I can't earn it back? ?
