Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

“I don’t charge you, and even if you exchanged these for drinks, it wouldn’t be enough.”

"It's a plane tree," said the French plane tree.

"And what about adding this?"

Liu Zheng gritted his teeth and took out the Heart of the Ocean.

"Wow."

The plane tree opened its eyes wide.

"This is a very rare artifact. It contains the soul of a mermaid baby, and it is not tainted by resentment."

It observed the pendant with great interest.

"But it's still not enough."

Just when Liu Zheng thought the deal was done, France Sycamore shook its head again.

He was quite surprised that even the Heart of the Ocean plus so much money wasn't enough, but he couldn't help but feel hopeful.

Could it be another item of perfect quality?

However, he had nothing else to exchange.

The legendary vest and the legendary delivery box are absolutely not going to be taken out.

etc.

Liu Zheng's gaze fell on the delivery box.

It seems he can also steal takeout food.

Chapter 56 The Ambition of the London Plane Tree

Liu Zheng opened the delivery box and then the food container.

A narrow-necked bottle made of rattan appeared before his eyes.

Name: Wood Elf's Milk

Type: Item

Quality: Excellent

"Effect 1: Heals the player's injuries; the effect is doubled when the player has an elf or plant bloodline."

"Effect 2: Gain the 'Natural Affinity' state, lasting for 48 hours."

"Note: One sip refreshes the mind, two sips relieve fatigue, and three sips grant immortality."

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

"Nature Affinity: All animals and plants increase their affinity with the player to Friendly, which is lost after the player attacks them."

Inside the perforated bottle, a clear, pale green liquid sloshed about without spilling a single drop.

The dark brown tree roots struck like lightning, hovering above the bottle opening.

The slight tremor revealed the manipulator's desire.

"Give it to me! Give it to me now!"

The plane tree said impatiently.

Its facial features shifted out of place due to the intense emotional fluctuations.

Simply put, its mouth and nose are fused together.

Unlike the excitement I felt when I saw the Vlad III limited edition last time, this time the longing for the French plane tree seems to come from the depths of my soul.

"Is it special to you?"

Liu Zheng asked tentatively.

"That's right, as long as I drink it, I can evolve again."

The plane tree didn't even try to hide its intentions.

"But it's also very useful to me. After drinking it, I can use this without any worries."

He showed off the teething stick.

"Natural affinity" can increase an animal's liking for him to friendliness.

While the Tindaroushound's appearance is somewhat abstract, it should still be classified as an animal.

"This is just a one-time consumable, while my evolution is permanent!"

The plane tree spoke sternly.

"But my life is also a one-time thing, and I don't want to waste it."

Faced with Dai Lego's fury, Liu Zheng calmly said...

“Purée! You win, you damn human.”

The plane tree cursed loudly, then flung out a handheld game console.

"Smash it."

It commanded.

Liu Zheng did as he was told and smashed the game console to pieces.

Amidst the shattered fragments, a pure gold finger gleamed with dazzling light.

Name: Goldfinger (Disposable)

Type: Item

Quality: Perfect

"Effect: When used at the appropriate time, it can select one of three random plugins."

"Note: I am a disciple of the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect and have never heard of the concept of game difficulty."

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

Looking at the effect of the item, he swallowed hard.

A perfect-level item, and it's a one-time use item, which shows just how buggy that cheat is.

The remarks were even more arrogant.

But he likes it.

"Fine, for the sake of our past friendship, I'll take a loss and trade with you."

Liu Zheng said through gritted teeth.

"You think beautifully."

The plane tree rolled its eyes.

"I can do without the money and the Heart of the Ocean, but there's one condition."

"You said."

"Since your restaurant has wood elf milk, there must be a living wood elf. Try to find out if she has any acorns on her body, and if so, bring them to me."

"It's a plane tree," said the French plane tree.

"What it is?"

he asked.

"In the sacred land of the Wood Elves, there is an Epoch Oak, whose fruit possesses powerful natural energy."

"Once I eat one, along with the milk of the wood elves, I will truly evolve. Then, my territory will be more than just this street."

The plane tree said longingly.

"You want everyone to know that you've taken over the entire city's streets?"

"That's not quite it, but at least taking over a few streets nearby won't be a problem. Once that's my territory, no one can touch you."

The plane tree said confidently.

"Besides yourself, right?"

Liu Zheng suddenly said.

"What do you mean?"

The plane tree's face darkened.

"Let me make a guess: after you evolve, will you no longer be subject to the same limitations as before?"

He asked with a smile.

"Putain! Why are you always such a spoilsport?"

The plane tree shouted.

"There's nothing I can do; I'm just a human being who can't even kill a chicken."

Liu Zheng shrugged.

"So what do you want, human?"

"It's like a plane tree," the French plane tree said helplessly.

"Is there a way to ensure that even after you evolve, you still have to follow the original rules? At least between you and me."

"Have."

"It's like a plane tree," the French plane tree said reluctantly.

"any solution?"

"contract."

After saying that, the plane tree opened its mouth.

It opened its mouth to its limit, and Liu Zheng could see the internal structure clearly.

"Stretch your tentacles in, and drip your blood onto my growth rings."

The plane tree said vaguely.

Liu Zheng did as instructed, biting open his own tentacle and then putting it into its mouth.

His expression became somewhat subtle as he recalled the plane trees and the legendary deliveryman.

"Okay."

A dozen seconds later, the plane tree spat out its tentacles.

"I have signed the Ring Contract with you. No matter what level I evolve to in the future, the rules between us will remain the same as they are now. Is that alright?"

It spoke in rapid succession.

"Congratulations, you've even learned how to answer first."

Liu Zheng drums his hands.

"You smooth talker. You'd better act quickly, or I'm afraid that wood elf will be on the table by now."

"It's a plane tree," said the French plane tree.

"I just finished helping out in the kitchen yesterday, and I may not have the opportunity to go to the kitchen again in the near future."

He gave De Lego a heads-up.

"It doesn't matter. The contract will monitor your thoughts anyway, and it will punish you if you slack off."

The plane tree had a sly grin on its face, as if it had succeeded in its scheme.

"It's really impossible to guard against."

Liu Zheng was startled at first, then shook his head helplessly.

There are gains and losses in everything, and he can't expect to always come out on top.

Moreover, he never intended to break his promise.
