Nobody told me this wasn't a game.

Deer Zheng six realms, True Bow six realms.

Bunny Girl, only in the fourth realm.

Ancient crystals produced in ancient battlefields are only cost-effective for adventurers below the fifth realm.

Could it be...

Zuo Chang asked, "The three morning privileges of the elk were originally for the bunny girl?"

Mayumi stood tall and spoke clearly and slowly: "If you hadn't shown up, they would almost certainly have belonged to the bunny girl. The bunny girl is a slut; you could smell her sluttyness from across the street. Shikamaru is soft-hearted and not good at saying no, so she would have succeeded."

Such blatant insults left Zuo Chang bewildered.

He wisely shut up, pretending he hadn't heard anything.

Mayumi was not willing to let him go.

She glanced at her sideways and asked, "Why aren't you saying anything?"

Zuo Chang waved his hands frantically: "Your team has internal problems, you solve them yourselves. I'm just listening and that's it; if you want my evaluation, I can't give it one."

Mayumi got excited: "This has to do with you. Zuo Chang, you stole the ancient crystallization of the bunny girl, she should hate you now."

Zuo Chang shook his head again: "Watch your words. You came up with the plan, I'm not taking your hard work for nothing. I'll help you with things later."

Are you sure your performance deserves the compensation I'm giving you?

"Miss Mayumi, you've got more than your money's worth! Once we enter Sky City, you'll find that you've found a reliable helper; my usefulness will exceed your expectations!"

Zuo Chang was full of confidence.

He turned to look at Mayumi, who seemed somewhat surprised, and said, "You'll see what a wise decision you've made."

Mayumi was surprised by Zuo Chang's confidence.

She unfolded her fan with a whoosh, concealing the admiring smile on her lips, and stared intently at Zuo Chang with her charming eyes: "Really impressive, your boldness just now captivated me... I'm starting to look forward to Sky City. I hope your performance will win me over completely and leave a lasting impression."

ok ok.

I will do my best.

Zuo Chang remained silent, and the announcer's voice rang out again:

"Attention adventurers. The Nova Train bound for the 'Ancient Battlefield' is about to arrive. All adventurers heading to the Ancient Battlefield, please prepare and wait behind the yellow line..."

woo-

A black steam train pulled into the station amidst the whistle and steam, and slowly came to a stop.

The train was pitch black and very short.

There was a locomotive in front, and only one carriage behind it; that was all.

"coming."

Zuo Chang looked at the automatically opened car door, then turned to Mayumi and said, "Miss Mayumi, let's go."

Mayumi remained silent.

She raised her hand lazily and elegantly, her golden eyes gazing at Zuo Chang: "Come on, as a reward for the fierceness and confidence you just displayed, I'll grant you special permission to hold my hand."

"...You can leave or not, do you want me to serve you?"

Zuo Chang boarded the train first.

Mayumi paused slightly, her hand awkwardly hanging in mid-air.

She sighed "Ah—", closed her fan, lifted the hem of her skirt, and followed Zuo Chang into the car.

……

……

In the game "Become Zero", a train is a dungeon.

Adventurers don't need to travel long distances; they can simply sit in the carriage and naturally appear in the instance.

After completing a dungeon, or even after failing a dungeon but surviving unharmed, the adventurer will miraculously return to the train carriage, and the train will arrive at the station at the exact same time, allowing them to disembark at the same spot where they boarded.

Very convenient.

This is due to the power of the gods, and can be considered a benefit for adventurers.

"Ancient Battlefield" is an experience-boosting instance, and this instance has two unique features:

Easy to learn, high returns.

Only one adventurer team is allowed on the ancient battlefield at any given time; more than one is not permitted.

The ancient battlefield was small, measuring 30 meters east to west and 50 meters north to south. There was no mystery to be solved or explored; there was only one battle.

A skilled adventurer team can clear the dungeon in as little as five minutes, resulting in an extremely high dungeon clear rate.

Zuo Chang sat on the train's iron seat, curiously observing the carriage environment—

He had played at least a thousand Ancient Battlefield games on his computer, but this was his first time coming here in person. He was curious and a little excited.

He looked at the man's photo hanging on the metal wall of the carriage and asked, "Is this Qian Wuyi?"

Mayumi sat down next to him and said, "Even if you've never met Lord Qian, you should at least be able to read the characters below. Don't ask such a stupid question next time."

Zuo Chang looked at the information under the photo and read aloud: "Winter of 5773 AD. Qian Wuyi led the team to complete the dungeon with a 99.00% success rate, becoming the record holder for the ancient battlefield. When he accomplished this feat, Qian Wuyi was only thirty-three years old."

Ninety-nine percent?

This data...

It's unstable.

Zuo Chang asked, "What year is it this year?"

Mayumi looked at him suspiciously: "5775."

"It's been two years, and no one has yet raised the completion rate of the ancient battlefield to over 99%?"

"puff!"

Mayumi smiled.

She held the folding fan to her lips, her tone playful: "Zuo Chang, don't just look up at the sky; watch your step sometimes too. Almost all communities only have a 99% completion rate for the Ancient Battlefield instance. How to improve that final 'one percent' has always been an open secret. Unless you come from a truly powerful family in a top community, you can't possibly know the answer."

After a pause, Mayumi felt that she hadn't been serious enough.

She added, "To be precise, even among truly powerful clans, only one or two core figures know how to clear the ancient battlefield with 100% success rate. This is one of the biggest secrets of the ascended world."

Zuo Chang smiled slightly: "I heard that General Tianwang has achieved 100% completion of the ancient battlefield."

Mayumi shook her head: "General Tianwang has brought almost all the dungeons to 100% completion, but are you General Tianwang? Or rather, do you have the talent to rival that legend?"

Zuo Chang smiled but remained silent.

Mayumi seemed to sigh, and added, "The record holder of the dungeon has quite a few benefits. Every time the dungeon is run, the record holder gets one 'point'... You know what points are, right?"

Zuo Chang didn't even look up: "It's used to make wishes. Adventurers can use points to make wishes to the gods. The number of points required varies depending on the size of the wish and the difficulty of fulfilling it. The wish must be within the power of the gods, and since the gods are omnipotent, whether an adventurer's wish can be fulfilled actually depends only on whether he has enough points."

Mayumi laughed, "The Ancient Battlefield instance runs hundreds of times a day. Just from this instance, Lord Qian can get more than a hundred points every day! Tsk, just thinking about it makes me jealous!"

The tactics used in Chapter 35 were surprisingly crude.

The Nova train entered the tunnel, and it became dark.

At that very moment, a slight feeling of weightlessness washed over him, and Zuo Chang smelled the scent of sand and fire; the environment before him changed completely.

The train carriages disappeared.

Instead, a battlefield of yellow sand lay scattered on the ground, with broken weapons and armor strewn about, and a flag hanging high atop the city wall, fluttering in the wind.

Zuo Chang looked up and saw smoke of war everywhere in the distance.

"It's about to begin."

Shinji bent down and began to take off his shoes.

She probably had no plans to take any risks today, and was wearing a pair of black stilettos with red soles. They were certainly hot, but not suitable for fighting.

Zuo Chang looked at her shapely legs encased in black stockings and noticed that her arches looked rather sexy: "Can't you fight in high heels?"

“I took off my shoes because I didn’t want to ruin them. The heels of these shoes are fragile, and they weren’t cheap.”

"Really? You don't seem like a frugal person."

Mayumi looked at Zuo Chang and smiled: "My family... was once impoverished. I had a turbulent childhood, and the hardships of that time tempered me, making me frugal."

be honest.

Not like.

Mayumi possesses an air of "prosperity" in both temperament and appearance.

Using this word to describe a person is not quite appropriate.

But Zuo Chang didn't know how to more accurately describe the feelings the girl in front of him evoked.

Not everyone can control wealth and status.

Some people wear expensive jewelry, but others only see them as nouveau riche. The first thing people notice is not their appearance, but their gold and silver jewelry.

A real bow is different.

She had bright red lips and sparkling eyes, a bold and flamboyant style, and exceptionally beautiful eyebrows, eyes, lips, and neck. She was born to wear gold and silver and be adorned with fine jewelry.

No matter how expensive the accessories are, they cannot dim her radiance; they will only silently serve as supporting elements, highlighting her beauty.

She seemed to have nothing to do with thrift.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Before Zuo Chang could reply, a heavy drumbeat resounded, shaking the very core of the soul.

The city gate directly in front of the two suddenly opened, and a humanoid creature shrouded in shadow emerged from behind the gate and rushed towards them!

Mayumi remained calm. She unfolded her fan and said, "Something strange has appeared. You just stand back and observe carefully, observe my—killing techniques!"

Waving a fan!

The archer raised his fan and swung it upwards.
