I, with a long knife in my hand, can only do one move

"Yes! I will definitely work hard, Master!"

After Rovello left, Irina finally showed her true nature, jumping up and down and throwing her fists to celebrate.

"——YaDaZe! Hohohohoho!"

Seeing her like this, the classmates laughed helplessly.

Both obscene and arrogant, but also straightforward and true to myself.

"Teacher Biki like this is our English teacher in Class E."

------------

"Hey, what's the matter with that armor?" Wu Jian asked, pointing to the octopus-shaped full-body steel armor that Cheng Rang secretly wanted to destroy.

"Hey...it's actually an insurance prepared for the teacher for that one-second agreement..."

Cheng Rang laughed dryly, kicked the armor into the storage room, and said with a series of jingling bells and nuts: "The agreed things will come true, this is the example teachers should set for students... Haha... ..."

Wu Jian: "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have let go!"

Cheng Rang: "There is a kind of love called letting go~ Giving up for love lasts forever~"

"Shut up—don't sing!"

Chapter 59 Meet

When the time came to Sunday, Cheng Rang received a message from that player on time this morning, with the time and meeting place attached, and the location was accurate to the coordinates.

Duan Buhuo: "Please use the teleport function to arrive at the designated coordinate location, and we will be responsible for reimbursement of your travel expenses."

[Player number No.0000006, traded to you: 600 system gold coins]

A system teleportation costs 300 gold. Is this all the round-trip travel expenses at one time?

Thinking that the other party was quite considerate, Cheng Rang also followed what the other party said, calling the system transmission function and filling in the location coordinates given by the other party.

After half a minute of guidance, as the scenery in front of him changed, Cheng Rang came to a place with a unique style that seemed to be a small town, but it was obvious that it did not belong to any place on this earth.

Blue bricks and tiles, medieval Gothic-style buildings with long sharp corners are arranged in random order, and the stone brick floor under the feet reflects the light like broken diamonds under the sunlight.

In the long alleyway surrounded by buildings on both sides, there is an exit as far as the eye can see. Outside the exit looks like a larger bustling street, as if you can hear the bustling crowds.

Just as Cheng Rang was about to step forward and walk towards the exit, a cold girl's voice suddenly came from behind him.

"This guest, please go this way."

The girl has metallic but soft long silver hair and blood red eyes.Dressed in Gothic-style clothing, black wings are gathered on the back.

Turning around delicately and inorganically like a doll, he walked deep into the alley without waiting for Cheng Rang's response.

At the depths of the alley opposite to the exit, the girl pushed open the iron-clad wooden gate at the end without knocking, and said to it as if to inform: "...he is here."

"Thank you, Mercury Lamp."

The silver-haired girl nodded, then walked past Cheng Rang and left.

There are all kinds of books in the bright room, and it seems that the style of Leticia’s house can’t be more consistent. The man sitting at the desk...or the boy is closing the books in his hands, and there are still books in his hand. There are many tools that Cheng Rang has never seen before, and spherical parts similar to puppet joints.

She has short fluffy brown hair, and there are interesting curly horns on both sides of her head, coiled into a donut shape.Emerald green eyes, wearing a plain white shirt and black trousers.It's just that his face is more rounded, with a little lack of edges and corners. He looks as delicate as a scholar, and his figure is half a head shorter than himself.

As Vera guessed, the player in front of her disguised his appearance when he met her, but Cheng Rang was not sure if it was his true face now.

After all, whether the other party has used such a heaven-defying potion similar to a camouflage potion, you can't see any clues just by looking at it.

Cheng Rang raised his hand to say hello, and said with a smile: "It's the first time we met, I should be the "test player" you are looking for. Speaking of which, I think your tone is very mature from the text message. I thought you might look more... Mature. "

"This appearance is fixed because of my race. In fact, I am not too young." He spoke in a very neutral, juvenile voice, "Mr. Cheng should be the same, right?"

"Ah, age? Haha... big

Probably. Cheng Rang touched the back of his head and mumbled, "By the way, is your real name Duan Buhuo?"It sounds like—"

"Yes, I'm from China, before I was selected into the game." The teenager nodded, as if he didn't shy away from where he came from before the system game, "The personal information on the system panel does not allow players to modify it by themselves, so it shows The name will be the real name. This is also a distressing thing for many players who choose vampires or blood family members to enhance their race."

"Is that so...then we can be considered fellow villagers?"

Duan Buhuo smiled slightly: "Well, yes."

"Fate!" Cheng Rang hurried forward, took his hand and shook it, "It feels like I found an organization!"

"Mr. Cheng is really... able to speak well." Duan Buhuo seemed a little unaccustomed to pulling his hand out of Cheng Rang's restraint like that.

"Let's talk about business, please sit down." He stretched out his hand to signal, and the scene in the room changed instantly as if reorganizing a Rubik's cube. Two soft fabric sofas appeared, separated by a transparent glass coffee table.

"what do you want to drink?"

"Water is fine. It would be great if there is good tea." Cheng Rang looked around curiously and sat down on the sofa.

The boy then sat down, and suddenly a steaming teapot and delicate teacups popped out from the empty coffee table, and the teapot floated up automatically, pouring tea for the two of them.

The brightly colored tea exudes a refreshing aroma, Cheng Rang picked it up and took a sip, then raised his brows in surprise.

"Good tea! By the way, what is this magic trick here?" Cheng Rang indicated the layout of the surrounding rooms.

Duan Buhuo replied: "The entire town here is my personal enchantment. I probably change jobs in the mage department. At the end of the skill point, there will be a personal enchantment skill. It can be used in various harsh environments. The different world provides safe and hidden shelters for friendly forces, and houses can be purchased from the system store to add them in.”

"Mage is good... I'm so envious." Cheng Rang sighed.

Let Leticia play around with it another day.

Returning to the topic, Duan Buhuo explained to Cheng Rang: "As Mr. Cheng knows, the system gives us the title of "player", and we will travel through various worlds according to the task assignment, complete the task and then become stronger.However, for many players who were not selected voluntarily, such a repeated death game is basically equivalent to suffering for them. "

"really."

Abandoning the original peaceful life and going to various worlds for adventure, although this is a fantastic and exciting journey for some people, there are always people who don't want it.

"However, the system only gives players the opportunity to travel through the world, but does not tell everyone when such a journey will end. Speaking of me alone, I have experienced at least a dozen world missions, and some of them are also based on The mission failed and ended sadly.”

"So you guys are going to think about how to go back to the original world?"

"Exactly." Duan Buhuo nodded, but then he showed a bitter smile and said, "If this continues, I probably won't be able to go back."

Cheng Rang raised his eyebrows: "How do you say?"

"Mr. Cheng should also have a deep understanding. Although we are called "players", every world we have experienced seems to exist in real life. The people in those worlds are all flesh and blood with sincere feelings. people.As players, we will inevitably form bonds with people in those worlds, when too many things involve you... even gradually more than your nostalgia for the original world..."

"Then would you still choose to go back? Choose to give up everything you got here—whether it's money, power, strength, friendship, love, or even...family affection."

Chapter 60 Entangled Bonds

Duan Buhuo continued: "To tell you the truth, before being selected by the system, I was a complete loser in reality."

"When I was a child, I didn't do well in school, and I looked mediocre. After I entered the society, I found a job that looked like I was waiting for death, and lived a mediocre life that could see the end at a glance."

"But here, I can change everything through my own efforts, and get everything I want, whether it's appearance, money, power beyond common sense... because of all these, the partners gathered around me, and my love This is completely an ideal life beyond the framework, like finding your own sense of existence in a game that can be restarted infinitely.”

"Whether it's fighting with all your strength, or facing death calmly, this kind of vigorous life seems to have no regrets no matter how you live it."

Cheng Rang was rarely silent. He listened quietly to the young man in front of him. Faces of many people also flashed in his mind. He subconsciously figured out the oath ring on his finger with Isabella.

... Pain exists, but the happiness and joy that are opposite to this pain, I also gain a lot.

"Why do you want to go back?" Cheng Rang suddenly asked Duan Buhuo in front of him, "Isn't it good to live like this?"

"It's true, that's why I said, if this continues, maybe I won't be able to go back."

""and also"? Cheng Rang caught the key point in the young man's words, "Has anyone already chosen to give up and go back?" "

"Very many." Duan Buhuo nodded.

Opened my own friends list.

【Friend List (23/75)】

In the top half of the list are colorful heads with bright gold frames, but most of them have been completely blacked out.

"If I'm not mistaken, these offline players are already..."

"died."

As if saying it was no big deal, the boy's tone was calm.

"Oh." Cheng Rang nodded.

"If we had never entered the game played by this system, would Mr. Cheng still be as indifferent as he is now in the face of so many dead friends?"

This is the system's friend list. In other words, all the players in Duan Buhuo's list are basically people who have had friendship with him.Or a guy who met once, or a close friend who has fought closely.

And now-

"They can't go back."

Duan Buhuo swiped through the list of friends in front of him, and repeated the names that had been completely darkened one by one like a few treasures. He even remembered what everyone said when they met him, the adventures they experienced together, playing and laughing together, and going crazy together When selling wild.

But now they are all dead.

Died in this endless loop, never ending "game".

[Player: Yeft Leslie, number: Test-0000021 (Status: offline)]

"Eyefurt Leslie, she is the second test player we found, she rejected our invitation to break the loop and clear the system game together. Because she had already found her own love here , established her own family, and even had children. She couldn't let go of the fetters here, saying that the previous world had nothing for her to miss."

Duan Buhuo sighed softly, "However, after the last world ended, I found that her profile picture has completely darkened."

"What will happen if the player dies in the crossing world?" Cheng Rang asked.

"All system assets of the player after the death will be recovered, unless the inheritance rules have been set in advance. All the memories of the world's aborigines who have communicated and remembered with this player will be erased."

"You said she has a child, what about the child?"

"He will continue to grow up. In the world that originally belonged to him, if he is brought into the time-traveling world, his memory before entering the world will be cut off and he will bounce back to the world he is in."

"That is to say, the child will be left behind and grow up with his father, but neither of them will have any memory of Yiefut?"

"Yes."

Cheng Rang pursed his lips, "I'm a little curious about the "inheritance rules" you mentioned. "

Duan Buhuo explained: "We learned this from system inquiries. This system has many hidden functions. If you don't take the initiative to ask for them, they will not be unlocked over time or through level progression."

"I have a deep understanding..." Cheng Rang nodded in agreement.

The boy picked up the teacup and blew on it, took a sip, and said, "It's a bit complicated for me to explain, why don't you just ask the system directly."

"also……"

Cheng Rang then took the initiative to ask the system.

[System, what are the inheritance rules? 】

【Ding--】

[Inheritance Inheritance Rules: Before the player dies, he can choose the heir to the inheritance. After the death, all system gold coins, props, and equipment will be automatically sent to the heir through the system email. Except for the binding title that cannot be inherited, the rest of the exclusive equipment will be unbound by the system , to send to the heir. 】

[The designation of the inheritance heir is limited to the current team members or players who have already formed an alliance in the list. If the selected heir voluntarily terminates the alliance before the donor dies, all inheritance will be recovered by the system instead. 】

[If the inherited equipment or props have the "exclusive" affix, they will be classified as souvenirs, lose all effects and cannot be used, but they can be saved. "Memorabilia for Dead Players" does not take up backpack slots and loads, and can be stored permanently. "Memorabilia for fallen players" can be transferred, including but not limited to "any player" and "any native of the world". 】

"The souvenirs of the dead players, are they relics?" Cheng Rang looked up at Duan Buhuo.

"Yes." He took out a pendant and placed it on the coffee table. "This is the souvenir I got before."

"Can I watch it?" Cheng Rang asked.

The boy stretched out his hand to signal, and Cheng Rang took the pendant on the table in his hand.

[Souvenir of fallen players: "Broken Jade Tears Pendant" Quality: Gray Eternity.Effect: None.Explanation: I just want to save more people I care about. Even in the days when I am gone, please continue to live with a smile. (From player number: No.0000007-Duan Meng)]

Seeing the last player number and name, Cheng Rang hesitated to speak, and finally asked tentatively, "Who is Duan Meng...?"

"My own sister, she and I were selected to come to this system game at the same time, and we experienced seven worlds together. In the eighth world, because the final enemy was too strong, she sacrificed herself...so I survived " Duan Buhuo's calm tone finally brought some fluctuations.

Cheng Rang handed the pendant back, "Sorry, my condolences will change."

Duan Buhuo shook his head, and said, "This is the professional equipment that my sister got after changing jobs, so I know exactly what the effect of this pendant is."

[Pendant of Tears of Broken Jade, quality: exclusive to red, only for professional "healers".Effect: Before the player enters the dying state, he will get a huge increase in all attributes, and the proficiency of all system skills will be raised to the highest level. At the same time, a 25-minute invincible time will be generated. There is no limit to the invincible time except for world travel. killed. 】

"Sister, she is a full-time healer...a kind of horny player who has never learned attack skills, but when she stood in front of me who was seriously injured and fell to the ground at that time, after triggering the effect of this pendant, the two of us originally worked together Enemies that can't be dealt with can be killed by her with a normal attack. Isn't it incredible?"

"Afterwards, my sister used a healing technique that I had never seen before, and resurrected all the companions who died in that world, and finally healed me who was seriously injured, and then... died laughing in my arms."
