Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

She swayed her hips as she walked up to Liu Zheng.

"Money, supernatural items, or me?"

The maid extended a delicate white finger and circled it over Liu Zheng's mouth.

Liu Zheng definitely doesn't want her.

Even if she weren't an old man or a big-breasted maid, she wouldn't be cute at all.

The money is good; if Mr. Li is generous enough, he might be able to pay off the debt to the cattle and horses and even buy another bottle of Shengtian Maotai.

As he was thinking this, an idea began to grow uncontrollably in Liu Zheng's mind.

"I need a supernatural object that's big and powerful enough, preferably one that can explode."

He wildly waved his tentacles, slamming them against the floor with a loud thud.

"interesting."

The maid was initially a little angry, but after hearing his words, a sly smile appeared on her face.

"It wouldn't be bad to see that woman go crazy."

She murmured to herself.

"What did you say?"

"It's nothing. Wait a moment, I'll go get my things."

The maid walked up to the second floor with cat-like steps.

Liu Zhengze stood still and waited.

His four eyes constantly scanned his surroundings, and all his tentacles seemed ready to pounce.

Fortunately, he still retained basic rationality and knew he couldn't risk his life here.

Finally, the maid came downstairs.

"Make good use of it, it's very rare."

She chuckled and placed a piece of yellow amber on Liu Zheng's tentacle.

Name: Fossilized Dung Maggot (Disposable)

Type: Item

Quality: Excellent

"Effect: Releases a large amount of unstable ammonia gas instantly after use."

Note: Is it true that you must not only kill someone but also destroy their spirit?

"Can it be taken out of the instance: No"

Liu Zheng looked at the plump white worm that had been sleeping for countless millennia and felt a chill run down his spine.

If I were to die under this thing, my life as a human would be over.

Oh, he doesn't seem to be considered human anymore.

That's fine.

"Thanks, bye."

Liu Zheng put away the amber and left without looking back.

He was afraid that if he delayed any longer, he would lose his temper and smash the maid's head with his tentacles.

"See you next time, young man."

In the corner of his eye, he seemed to see Mr. Li waving at him.

Upon returning to the entrance of Yipin Tianshu, Liu Zheng discovered that the bodies of the security guards were still there.

"Isn't anyone coming to clean the floor?"

While complaining, Liu Zheng opened his character panel.

Everything happened so suddenly that he didn't even have time to look closely.

Status: Flesh Abnormality

"Effect: Causes uncontrollable mutations in the player's body, making it impossible to change genes or bloodline."

"Current mutation effect: Strength +30, Constitution +20, Perception +15."

Liu Zheng swung his tentacles with all his might, smashing a security guard's corpse into a pulp.

very good, very powerful.

He nodded in satisfaction.

"Temporary Madness: Irritability"

"Effect: The player will become extremely irritable, to the point of losing their mind. High mental attributes can help alleviate the symptoms."

Duration: Three instances.

"Flesh deformities and irritability, why do I feel like I'm the villain?"

As Liu Zheng looked at the pile of corpses, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

After about ten minutes, he hummed a song as he walked toward the Bloodstained Restaurant.

-

"Boss, I'm back."

Liu Zheng greeted him.

Niu Ma was looking down at his phone, but when he heard what he said, he lazily looked up.

"How many fuckings did Mr. Li give you?!"

The eyes of the ox and horse were bulging wider than their nostrils.

"What happened to you, you little rascal, that you look like this?"

It suddenly stood up, its tail fur standing on end.

Even by the standards of an "outstanding employee," Liu Zheng's current appearance is somewhat frightening.

"It's a long story. By the way, am I still considered a human citizen now, looking like this?"

he asked with some curiosity.

"Your essence hasn't changed, so theoretically you should be considered one, but you can also not be. However, as long as the city hall doesn't issue a letter, your status won't change."

"The ox and horse thought for a moment and said..."

When will the city hall send the letter?

"I don't know about that. Apart from the employment office, the other departments of the city hall are quite inefficient."

The ox and horse shook their big heads.

"Ok."

"Tell me quickly, how much tip did you get?"

It urged.

"Mr. Li gave me this."

Liu Zheng took out the fossil of the maggot in the sea of ​​feces.

"What's this thing used for?"

The ox and horse asked in confusion.

"It seems to release a large amount of ammonia gas."

"Hey, take it away, take it away."

The ox and horse quickly covered their noses.

"Don't let those guys in the cafeteria see this, or I won't be able to protect you."

After Liu Zheng put the fossil away, it said with disdain.

"Aren't we not allowed to enter the cafeteria?"

"Sometimes when the cafeteria is too busy, they'll ask us to help out in the kitchen. But it's rare; I've only encountered it a few times in all the time I've been here."

The cattle and horses returned.

"Is it dangerous?"

"There are definitely dangers, but there are also many benefits."

The ox and horse stopped halfway through their conversation.

"By the way, when are you going to play Snake? I'm waiting to see the reward for completing the game."

It shouted.

"Not yet. Boss, could you get me some paper and a pen?"

Liu Zheng said.

What do you need those things for?

"I will use them to familiarize myself with my new body."

"This is troublesome, just wait."

The ox and horse spat out the key again and opened a cabinet in the lower right corner.

"Take it yourself."

Liu Zheng did as instructed and took out a notebook and a fountain pen from inside.

A name was written on the cover of the notebook.

"White Boy"

He opened the notebook, and the first few pages were filled with incomprehensible, winding, and twisted characters.

"This kid is from the snake people. He was supposedly a modern poet. Then retro styles became popular, and he lost his job."

Niu Ma's tone was somewhat gloating.

Title: The Snake Man's Poetry Manuscript

Type: Miscellaneous Items

Quality: Average

Effect: None

"Note: This is the last work of a genius poet. Some people may like it."

"Can it be taken out of the instance: Yes"

Miscellaneous items?

This was the first time Liu Zheng had ever seen this type of item.

He glanced thoughtfully at the notes, then tore off those pages of poetry, folded them, and put them in his pocket.

"You should change into your work clothes; they look terrible on you right now."

The ox and horse said with disdain.

Not only did it not fit, but it was also torn in many places, causing some things that shouldn't have been exposed to show.

Do I have to pay to change into work clothes?

"This should be considered accidental damage, so it shouldn't cost anything. Let me check."

Niu and Ma took out their phones and started chattering away.

"Alright, the new uniforms will be here soon."

As soon as it finished speaking, a white silk thread hung down from the ceiling.
