I was used as cannon fodder at the start, but my superpower came into play!
Chapter 11 The bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish
Logically, when assigning rooms, men should be paired with men and women with women.
However, the reality is that no one wants to trust the people around them. Even in a survival killing game, there is always the possibility of encountering danger. Having more people might make it safer, and everyone hopes to live in the same house with someone reliable.
In other words, if Cheng Li and Song Yuewen were to share a room with Mao Xingzhou, having a lecherous man by their side, these two women would never agree to it.
Ultimately, Chen Bin decided to share a room with Chi Feng and Zeng Fuyuan, a room with Fu Xueying and Chu Tianyang, a room with Mao Xingzhou and Li Ping, a room with Lu Renjia and Xiao Bingyi, and a room with An Qiluo and Su Yu, as well as a room with Cheng Li and Song Yuewen.
And so, all the rooms in suite 1603 were occupied. Although it was a bit crowded with three to four people in one room, and there was definitely no room for so many people to lie down on the bed, it was not impossible to make do.
When Chen Bin was choosing apartment 1603, he was drawn to its large size, numerous rooms, and proximity to the emergency exit.
After the rooms were assigned, some people stayed in the living room, while others went back to their rooms first.
For example, Chu Tianyang and Fu Xueying went back to their room to enjoy some alone time and whisper sweet nothings to each other.
Li Ping felt there was no point in staying in the living room, so she greeted Mao Xingzhou and wiggled her hips as she went back to their room.
Before going back to her room, Li Ping gave Mao Xingzhou a flirtatious wink, as if to say that she was waiting for him in the room.
Now that they have a room, the two can openly do their illicit affairs. As long as Mao Xingzhou leaves Lu Renjia and Xiao Bingyi in the living room, Li Ping doesn't mind accompanying him in his lovemaking.
In Li Ping's view, there is nothing shameful about this. Everyone is just trying to survive, only the methods are different.
As for asking her to seduce Chen Bin, Li Ping didn't think she had that kind of charm. Chu Tianyang and Fu Xueying were a couple, so the only remaining veteran players were Mao Xingzhou and An Qiluo.
An Qiluo is a woman, so of course she should start with Mao Xingzhou. Li Ping believes that her choice is absolutely correct.
Compared to Cheng Li and Song Yuewen, who managed to latch onto Su Yu, a newcomer, Li Ping felt lucky.
"Go back to your room and activate the seed first."
Walking up to Su Yu, An Qiluo said to him.
An Qiluo's voice was not loud; only she and Su Yu could hear it.
Su Yu was stunned. He didn't expect An Qiluo to awaken his superpower at this time.
"Didn't you say that to awaken your superpowers, you need to sleep for twenty-four hours?"
Su Yu looked at An Qiluo with a puzzled expression.
Although he was asking a question, he deliberately lowered his voice, keeping it at a level that he and An Qiluo could hear.
"Go ahead, I'll make sure you're alright."
An Qiluo didn't say much, but the tone of her voice was reassuring.
Hearing her say that, Su Yu stopped dawdling and got up to walk towards the room.
Seeing him return to the house, Cheng Li and Song Yuewen also planned to follow him, but An Qiluo stopped them.
"By the way, I'm not used to sleeping with people, so you'll sleep in the bed, and the sofa is for me. Nobody's allowed to take it, understand?"
Just as Su Yu opened the door and was about to go in, An Qiluo, who was staring at his back, added another sentence.
"Well......"
Su Yu was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.
To be honest, he really did plan to sleep on the sofa, leaving the bed for An Qiluo, Cheng Li, and Song Yuewen.
Who cares how they allocate the rooms? I'm a grown man, sleeping on the sofa is better than sleeping on the floor.
As a result, An Qiluo gave him the bed, but the veteran player slept on the sofa, which was really beyond Su Yu's expectations.
"understood."
Su Yu nodded, said nothing more, and walked straight into the room, closing the door behind him.
Approaching the bedside, Su Yu took out the object that was entirely black, covered with strange patterns, and radiating a faint black light—the one An Qiluo called a seed.
How do I use this thing to activate my superpowers?
Just as Su Yu was hesitating about whether to eat the seed or what to do, he suddenly heard the sound of the red Rubik's Cube.
"A new player has been detected to have received a seed. You will now have five minutes to ask questions. As long as the red cube has the authority to answer, you may ask as many questions as you like. Please note that the five-minute countdown begins the moment you ask your first question."
The sound of the red Rubik's Cube reached Su Yu's ears clearly.
Su Yu was startled and turned to look at the doorway. He waited for about half a minute but didn't hear any movement. He guessed that the sound of the red Rubik's Cube was something only he could hear.
After hesitating for a moment, Su Yu still asked the red Rubik's Cube a question in a low voice.
"How do I use this?"
"All players need to do is hold the seed in their hand and think about using it."
"After using it, will I really fall into a sleep state that lasts for 24 hours?"
"Yes."
The red cube gave an affirmative answer, exactly the same as what An Qiluo had said.
"Players will fall asleep the moment they are activated, so it is recommended that players find a safe place."
"I understand, but can you tell me what kind of special ability I'll activate after using the seed?"
"Each player activates different abilities, and a very small number of people cannot activate special abilities. I'm sorry, I cannot answer your question."
"Well......"
Su Yu felt that activating his special ability was a bit like opening a blind box.
All he can do now is wish that he's not one of the very few people the Red Cube was talking about who can't activate their special abilities; that would be too unlucky.
Thinking about it, Su Yu walked to the bedside and continued to ask the red Rubik's Cube questions.
"Have Chen Bin, An Qiluo, Mao Xingzhou, Chu Tianyang, and Fu Xueying all activated their special abilities?"
"Yes."
"What are their special abilities?"
"This involves the privacy of other players, so I'm sorry I can't answer that. If you want to know, you can ask them yourself, or you can find the answer by carefully observing them during the battle."
Red Cube refused decisively, his voice as gentle as it had been heard in the room, giving the impression of a dutiful nanny.
Ask some questions that will be helpful to you.
"Okay, can you tell me what kinds of seeds there are?"
"Seeds are divided into black iron seeds, silver seeds, gold seeds, and star seeds. Among them, black iron seeds are the lowest grade, and star seeds are the highest grade. The seed you are holding is a black iron seed."
Does the seed's level affect the strength of the player's awakened special ability?
Su Yu swallowed hard; this was what he was most concerned about right now.
It should be noted that the seed he initially picked up was, barring any unforeseen circumstances, a silver seed.
Who would have thought that bastard Chu Tianyang would snatch it away? Even the black iron seed in his hand was given to him by An Qiluo out of kindness.
If the quality of the seed directly affects the strength of special abilities, Su Yu would have to consider whether or not to use this black iron seed.
However, the red Rubik's Cube's words left him with a feeling of both laughter and tears.
"The level of the seed will not affect the strength of the special ability that the player awakens. However, the higher the level of the seed, the easier it is for the player to awaken a special ability that suits their own conditions. Players do not need to worry that the seed level is too low, which will prevent them from awakening a special ability. As long as they are not among the very few people without abilities, they will awaken a special ability."
"So, besides awakening special abilities, what other uses do seeds have?"
"Of course! Besides replenishing mana, which means replenishing your stamina, seeds can also be used as points in the Cube Space. When purchasing items in the Cube Space, black iron seeds are worth 100 points, silver seeds are worth 300 points, gold seeds are worth 500 points, and star seeds are worth 1,000 points."
"So that's how it is."
Su Yu immediately understood. He remembered that Fu Xueying had said that if a newcomer returned to the room with less than 200 points, they would be eliminated by the Red Cube. This meant that, aside from the seed in his hand, the silver seed that Chu Tianyang had taken from him was still worth enough to buy a newcomer's life.
Are the seeds difficult to obtain?
"It depends on the player's own strength. The stronger you are, the lower the probability of getting a seed from killing a normal monster. Conversely, the higher the probability of getting a seed from killing a monster of a higher level. Let me give you an example. If you participate in a survival killing game for the first time and you haven't awakened any special abilities, you might get a Star Seed if you kill a Licker by yourself. Haven't you heard the saying, 'The bigger the wave, the more expensive the fish'?"
"Okay, then can you tell me if the special abilities activated by the seed are also graded according to their strength?"
"Yes, abilities are divided into R, SR, SSR and UR, with R being the lowest and UR being the highest. However, the level of an ability does not represent the strength of a player's final strength. A player who has just awakened a UR-level ability is no match for a player who has entered Tier 3 mode but only has an R-level ability."
The red Rubik's Cube gave a very detailed answer, telling Su Yu everything about the Rubik's Cube space to the best of her ability.
"In addition, the level of an ability is only a judgment given by each cube based on the initial effect. As the player's strength increases, the ability will also evolve to different degrees. Even the lowest R level, as long as the player carefully studies its usage, may be able to surpass the SR or even SSR level abilities under certain circumstances."
"What exactly is this third-order mode you just mentioned?"
"This is how the Magic Cube Space classifies players' strength. With each advancement, a player's strength increases significantly. The levels are Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3. Above Tier 3, there are Hero Tier 1, Hero Tier 2, Hero Tier 3, and Hero Tier 4, which are simply referred to as Hero Tier 1, Hero Tier 2, Hero Tier 3, and Hero Tier 4. After you awaken your special ability, what you need to do is try your best to break through your own limitations and enter Tier 1 mode."
"This is truly a long and arduous journey, but I will persevere in my pursuit."
Su Yu sighed. He had thought that awakening his special ability would allow him to thrive in the Rubik's Cube space, but now it seemed that he had been too naive.
Unsure of the extent of Chen Bin and the others' abilities, Su Yu knew that even if he asked, the Red Cube wouldn't provide an answer, so he abandoned the idea.
Judging from Red Cube's current performance, as the manager of her own cube space room, she does indeed give some preferential treatment to the players in the room, but this treatment is the same for everyone.
The Red Cube will not betray the interests of other players just because one player makes a request.
"Red Cube, I've heard you and veteran players mention points and such. So what can you buy with those points?"
"You can buy a lot of things with points. You can buy things that exist in reality, and things that don't exist in reality. It takes all aspects into account. You can even use points to create life, or resurrect people who have died. And to leave the Magic Cube Space, forget everything that happened here, and never participate in the survival killing game again, you only need to pay 10,000 points. No matter who it is, as long as they have enough points, the Magic Cube Space can grant all their wishes. Please note, I said all of them!"
"Really? If I wanted to live forever, was that possible?"
"It's nothing."
The red Rubik's Cube spoke to Su Yu in a rather humane way, completely ignoring the other party's gasp of surprise.
"Alright, your five-minute question time is over. If there's anything else you want to know, try to figure it out on your own. Since you used the newcomer's question time, you don't have the right to refuse the seed activation process. Now, a ten-second countdown will begin. Once the countdown is over, the seed will be activated."
"Wait a moment."
「10、9、8、7、6......」
"So straightforward?"
Seeing that the red Rubik's Cube was acting businesslike, Su Yu, who was lying on the bed, quickly changed to a more comfortable position.
As soon as the ten-second countdown ended, Su Yu felt his brain go blank, flooded with a lot of inexplicable knowledge.
Su Yu's eyelids grew heavier and heavier. He tried hard not to fall asleep, but his body simply wouldn't obey him.
As his vision gradually darkened, Su Yu barely managed to discern the information flooding into his brain just before falling asleep—information about how to use his special ability.
Dreaming? Not a chance!
Su Yu slept very soundly, so much so that he forgot the time, his mind seemingly entering another dimension.
Cheng Li and Song Yuewen, who later entered the room, tried to wake Su Yu, but no matter what they did, they couldn't wake him up.
Cheng Li and Song Yuewen panicked, not knowing what had happened. Just as they were about to go out to seek help from others, An Qiluo, who had entered the house, stopped them.
"He will sleep for a day and will not wake up until this time tomorrow. You two will take turns taking care of him. As for your safety, I will take responsibility for him while he is unconscious."
After closing the door, An Qiluo spoke to the two of them as she walked to the sofa and slowly lay down on it.
Hearing An Qiluo say this, Cheng Li and Song Yuewen secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
On the one hand, she no longer had to worry about her safety for the rest of the day; on the other hand, she had just gotten close to Su Yu and didn't want to lose him.
Not only did An Qiluo ask them to take care of Su Yu, but she also promised to protect their safety.
Even without An Qiluo's words, Cheng Li and Song Yuewen would have taken good care of Su Yu, since they needed this young man's help to survive in the survival killing game.
