Life Dungeon Game

"Thanks,"

Li Cheng said in a low voice, "If these numbers are true, they might save many people."

For the supernatural realm of the main world, which has no experience or accumulation, any new pattern to be tested will cause great losses, let alone this kind of completely irregular correspondence.

"We should perhaps thank the people who went to the trouble of preserving this string of numbers."

He Ao took a sip of tea, then turned to look at Li Cheng. "By the way, the last piece of knowledge, you might already have a sense of it: starting from the D-rank to the C-rank, each promotion requires a corresponding ritual. The ritual can reduce the conflict between the talent sequence and one's own abilities during the promotion, reducing the possibility of madness."

"We have indeed discovered that Class D to Class C are particularly dangerous, but we have not yet explored the 'ritual' aspect."

Li Cheng also wrote down this knowledge.

They are still discovering problems, but Heo has already provided them with solutions.

There are too few C-level and B-level units in the main world; the sample size is insufficient for them to discover enough problems.

After Li Cheng mentally reviewed this knowledge again, he let out a long sigh, "What you gave me is far more valuable than the Newland City-State."

"I'm just passing on what others have summarized to you."

He Ao smiled.

The evening breeze under the setting sun brushed against their collars.

-

Two days later——

"I'll be relying on you for Newland from now on."

Walking on the streets of the core island, Heo looked at the crowds coming and going, glanced at Kodo beside him, and said with a smile.

"my pleasure."

Kodo smiled.

In the past two days, Moonlight and Heo have completed the basic handover, and Heo has met with the 'rulers' of Newland City-State in turn.

He did not particularly interfere in the affairs of the city-state of Newland, but only made some suggestions regarding education and restricting the arrival of unknown people on the island.

Then he began to build his own organization of superhumans.

Kodo was the first D-class superhuman willing to follow him, jumping ship directly from Moonlight to work under him.

After Kodo chose to switch jobs, a group of people who used to work for Moonlight also switched jobs to join him.

They already had experience managing Newland, and quickly helped Heo establish the framework.

Then Heo invited Karin and the others who had returned from the dungeon to join the organization. Their rich hunting experience in the dungeon was very useful in dealing with ordinary monsters hiding in the dark.

Kalin and his group had met Hao Yi before and knew that Hao Yi was He Ao's friend, so they chose to join without hesitation.

Kodo is in charge, and Kalin is his deputy.

In response to He Ao's words, Kodo turned to Chen Lin beside him and asked, "How much longer are you going to stay here?"

"have no idea,"

Chen Lin shook his head and looked at the ruins of the houses around him. "We'll have to wait until things are completely settled here."

He has become the official head of the research institute in Newland, responsible for managing the 'support forces' dispatched to Newland by the research institute.

"Why don't you go talk to your little minister?"

Kodo cautiously moved closer. "If you can recruit him, I'm willing to work as his assistant."

"Don't you dislike Director He?"

Chen Lin glanced at him.

"Well, perception is perception, and ability is ability,"

Kodo coughed. "Your little minister, although he's a bit young, is quite capable."

"Come on,"

Chen Lin smiled and said, "He is the apple of the dean's and Yang's eye. If I dare to persuade He to switch jobs, I don't know where I'll be assigned to in the freezing cold tomorrow and starve."

"Is your dean so stingy?"

Kodo was somewhat puzzled.

"Shh, what are you saying?"

Chen Lin quickly covered Kodo's mouth with his hand, "The dean is still in Newland helping to organize the transfer of power in the city-state."

While the two were talking, He Ao had already walked far ahead.

Although there are still ruins of collapsed houses on the surrounding streets, the commercial street on the core island has returned to its former bustling state.

He Ao walked quietly along this commercial street where desolation and prosperity coexisted.

How much is this meat skewer?

He Ao stopped in front of a stall.

"Ten gold coins a skewer, and mine is all firm lamb, it's so fragrant!"

The meat skewer vendor was flipping the skewers when he subconsciously looked up at He Ao. He paused, then asked with some confusion, "Sir, haven't we met somewhere before?"

"Many people say that,"

He Ao smiled and shrugged, glancing at his pocket. There was a fifty-gold guilder note left, which he placed on the table. "Five strings, please."

“We really have met somewhere before,”

The vendor collected the five skewers of meat and handed them to He Ao. Then he picked up the banknote and handed it back to He Ao, saying, "I can't accept this money."

"There's no business without taking money."

He Ao smiled, shook his head, and turned to walk along the street.

"Wait a moment!"

The vendor grabbed the money and hurriedly chased after He Ao, but immediately lost track of him.

"Brother, what's wrong?"

A young man ran out of the shop behind the stall.

"Do you remember that terrifying dream I told you about before?"

The vendor stared blankly at the money in his hand. "I think I saw the person who killed the monster and saved me in my dream."

······

The shopping street was bustling with people, and He Ao continued to stroll along the crowd.

He didn't really remember what the vendor looked like. That night, as Hao Yi, he saved too many people, especially when clearing out the monsters at the end, he practically traveled all over the city.

"Brother, brother, do you need a charm?"

Suddenly, a familiar child's voice came from ahead.

He Ao looked up and saw the little girl with the bamboo basket on her head turning around.

The little girl seemed to remember He Ao and immediately ran over to him, looking at him, "Brother, would you like a charm? K will protect you."

"K?"

He Ao was taken aback, and said with some confusion, "Wasn't it the Goddess of Luck and Storms before?"

"Brother, don't you know?"

The little girl blinked and cautiously leaned closer, saying, "It is said that the great earthquake and storm before were caused by the anger of the Storm Goddess, who wanted to completely destroy Newland. Then a god named K stepped forward and saved us all, so K is now the guardian deity of Newland."

"Who said that?"

He Ao was a little confused.

"Everyone's saying,"

The little girl chuckled and pointed to the basket, where there were straw amulets that had been modified in some way. The amulets had some kind of blurry, seemingly radiant humanoid patterns on them. "K's amulets sell very well."

He looked up and saw that many people were indeed holding one of these amulets.

He took a closer look at the amulet in the girl's basket and found that it was similar to the amulet of the Goddess of Fortune, seemingly a modified version of the original amulet.

"By the way, are your parents living nearby?"

He Ao looked at her with a puzzled expression.

His words made the little girl subconsciously look around, then shrink back and carefully say, "My mom and dad went missing before, but they just came back recently. They're at work, and they don't let me go out to sell amulets, but my grandma and I have lost too many before, and it would be such a waste not to sell them."

Aren't you going to school?

He Ao asked her with a smile.

"It'll be soon, it'll be soon,"

The little girl was clearly excited. "I'm going to school tomorrow! My dad said a very kind and important person came to New Zealand and gave subsidies to many schools. Now many children on Vinland can go to school!"

Then she reached into the basket, rummaged around, and took out a relatively new amulet, handing it to He Ao. "Brother, this is for you. K will protect you."

He Ao accepted the brand new amulet.

Then he crouched down slightly, took a skewer of meat from the bag he was carrying, and handed it to the little girl, "That..."

Let me give you a gift too.

The little girl looked at the skewer of meat, swallowed, but didn't take it right away.

Are you worried that I'm a bad person?

He Ao asked her with a smile.

"My brother looks like a good person,"

The little girl paused, glanced at the packaging bag in her hand, and continued thoughtfully, "But this costs at least 10 gold coins, while my amulet only costs 1 gold coin."

"You give me a gift, I'll give you a gift,"

He Ao smiled at him and said, "They're all gifts, is there any difference?"

The little girl scratched her head, seemingly agreeing with He Ao's point. She carefully reached out and took the meat skewer He Ao offered, saying, "Thank you, brother."

"K will protect you."
