Chapter 15: Resurrection Prelude (15)

“Good afternoon.”

When the exhausted Qi Leren walked out of the basement with heavy steps, he saw the illusionist sitting at the round table and playing cards with Chen Baiqi. The silver chips had already piled up in front of him. Xi Qian looked bad luck and looked aggrieved. The illusionist who won the card was in a good mood and greeted Qi Leren with a smile.

Obviously, Qi Leren didn't want to see him - since he witnessed a transvestite peeing in the men's bathroom, he would meet the illusionist at Chen Baiqi every now and then. He was keen on changing his style, and he always looked different every time. This directly led to Qi Leren's vigilance when he saw strange women in Chen Baiqi, because sometimes the illusionist would tease him.

Once when he heard the voice of an illusionist coming from the front hall, Qi Leren walked towards another door without hesitation. However, when he pushed open the ordinary hall door, he found that a Tyrannosaurus rex more than ten meters tall was roaring at him ferociously! In the earth-shaking roar, Qi Leren, who was facing the roar of the Tyrannosaurus rex, was so scared that he was almost pissed! The initiator smiled aside and trembled with Chen Baiqi to discuss the importance of scare education in training players' psychological qualities.

The Qiu Qileren has recorded this! One day he will take off his clothes in public and throw his breast pads in front of the stunned passerby to take revenge!

"Do you want to play cards together?" the illusionist invited.

"No." Qi Leren refused.

"Come on, let's play together, maybe you can win." said the illusionist.

"Yes, brother, let's play cards together." Xixi also said.

If you play cards, you can stop training, right? The idea of ​​being lazy came to Qi Leren's heart. He swallowed and suddenly realized that he could not get rid of this seductive idea.

It seems that he has been lucky recently, maybe he can try it.

So he secretly glanced at Chen Baiqi, and she shrugged indifferently, looking like he was casually.

"Okay, I'll come too." Qi Leren, who received acquiescence, also sat on the round table, "What cards are you playing?"

"The bullfighting has no technical content, it all depends on luck."

This is simple, Qi Leren can do it, so he rubbed his hands confidently: "How to place a bet?"

"Use NPC currency, you can exchange it with the remaining survival time, I'll lend you first." Chen Baiqi pushed a stack of chips over, which were exquisitely made silver coins. Humans in the nightmare world usually traded in this currency.

"Then keep going." The illusionist flexibly shuffled the cards and threw a charming look at the three of them.

...

...

...

The initial expectation mood has been shattered in the face of cruel reality. The first one is without a cow, and Qi Leren can comfort himself. It was just a chance, the second one, the third one, the fourth one... Qi Leren finally recognized the reality and gave birth to the reality of "Haha, it's indeed a lucky E".

Qi Leren, who lost all his chips in just ten minutes and still owed Chen Baiqi 72 silver coins, looked at the bad card in his hand with a heart of trash. It was really garbage, and even a cow couldn't get it out, so he had to kneel down again!

When he looked up, he found that the three of them were looking at him curiously. The expression written on his face was: I really want to know how bad your hand can be.

"I won't play anymore." Qi Leren threw the card and collapsed on the chair and choked speechlessly. "I'm going to go to training."

Chen Baiqi smiled: "It seems that you have enough rest in your body and mind. Let's practice for an hour today."

On the way to the basement like a dead mother, Qi Leren, who was physically and mentally injured, suddenly realized that he was using seventy-two silver coins to do extra training for him for an hour?

Behind him, the illusionist's cheerful voice came: "Oh, I won a lot today."

Xixi was also very happy: "I lost a lot, but Qi Leren lost some more to me, and they lost less after all."

Chen Baiqi was also very happy: "I didn't lose or win on the card, but I earned Qileren 72 silver."

Maybe Qi Leren, the only loser: I was being tricked???

When Qi Leren came home that day, Du Yue happened to be there. This young man often brought his own ingredients to Dr. Lu for free recently. Dr. Lu liked him quite a bit, and Qi Leren became familiar with him. It felt good to hear the news about the curious social news every now and then. Today, this young man who is suspected to have the fate of the protagonist did not disappoint his expectations.

"I didn't want to go out today. I always encountered problems when I went out, and it took a long time to delay." Du Yue was also helpless about his accident physique, "But in the afternoon I remembered that there was nothing to eat at home, so I went out."

"Then you meet a weird person again," said Dr. Lu.

"Yes, but today's adventure was a bit strange. When I walked to the market, I was entangled by a cat. It was a very fat three-cat cat. It meowed around me. I saw a collar around its neck with an address written on it, and thought about who had lost his pet." Du Yue grabbed his hair and continued, "Anyway, there was nothing special, so I sent the cat back. As a result, when I arrived at the address, no one came to open the door, so I went to the window to look. Looking in from the window, there was a kitchen, and the kitchen utensils were neatly placed on the flow table. Only the chopping board was placed down, and there was a half-cut octopus on it. The room was quiet and there was no sound..."

Dr. Lu rubbed his arms: "I feel like I'm listening to horror stories."

The same is true for Qi Leren. Du Yue's wording is normal, but he seems to have a talent for telling horror stories, and what he says from his mouth makes people feel creepy.

Du Yue smiled embarrassedly: "The even stranger thing is still behind. The octopus is only half cut, and it looks fresh. I thought the owner should be in the house, so I called him at the window, but no one answered. The cat I was holding jumped out and rushed in from the open window, biting half of the octopus that had not been cut, and returned to me. I saw a card stuffed into the octopus' body, as big as a membership card in the supermarket, this one."

Du Yue said, put the card on the table and reminded: "Don't touch it first, I'll receive the task after I touch it."

Dr. Lu and Qi Leren were very curious: "What task?"

"A C-level difficulty dungeon mission, with a limited number of people in the dungeon, the task name is 'Interstellar Death Reality Show'. No matter how many people are added, the mission will start within three days. Is C-level quite difficult? I have only done D-level missions before." Du Yue asked in distress.

"It's okay, we have experienced it at level B," Dr. Lu glanced at Qi Leren. The original "Cast Shock" mission was interfered with by the demonic power, and he was promoted from level D to level B. When he thought that the deceiving Demon King was following them to help with the task, Dr. Lu couldn't help but tremble and was scared.

"For the copy of the three, I suggest you find two familiar people to go with. Do you still have any contact with your companions in the novice village?" Qi Leren asked.

Du Yue shook his head in frustration: "My novice village has a very serious internal strife. In the end, only I and another player survived, but I have never seen her since."

Qi Leren and Dr. Lu looked at each other.

Dr. Lu: Are you making an appointment?

Qi Leren: Where is you?

Dr. Lu: Let me make an appointment.

Qi Leren: Can you do it?

Dr. Lu: After all, an acquaintance, and C should be fine.

Qi Leren: I'll make an appointment too, I still owe someone a favor, and I don't need training when doing tasks!

As soon as the idea of ​​escaping training was about to stop, he could no longer control it. When he thought that there was a legitimate reason to let it fly for a few days, Qi Leren was so excited that he was like a primary school student who was going to go out for a spring outing tomorrow. He was full of excitement and ready to move.

Dr. Lu and Qi Leren, who had completed their eye contact, nodded together.

Dr. Lu smiled and said, "Xiao Yue, we see that you may be a little difficult to try a C-level task for the first time alone..."

Du Yue looked at them with a gaze: "It's quite difficult."

Qile people kept smiling: "We'll take you."

"Thank you so much! I just wanted to invite you, but I'm embarrassed..." Du Yue's face turned slightly red, but it didn't look obvious because of his skin color. "Thank you! Thank you senior!"

After arguing with the task together, the two of them touched the "octopus card".

[Player Qileren, triggering the mission: Interstellar Death Reality Show. The mission start countdown is 68:32:24. Players can receive this task by touching the mission props, and the remaining number of people can be added: 0/3.]

Qi Leren was very confident. Now that taking leave and training has been a foregone conclusion, I can finally have a good time for two days! Long live the escape training, long live, long live!

"By the way, what is your skill card? We can study your expertise based on your skill card." Qi Leren asked.

"Oh, my skill is called [Protagonist Halo]." Du Yue put the skill card in front of the two of them. Qi Leren and Dr. Lu looked closely and felt aroused in their hearts that they wanted to beat the newcomer.

[Protagonist Halo] (Binding Skill Card): When you use this Skill Card, you will instantly jump into the focus of the crowd. The protagonist of the story, the brave and fearless savior! You exudes a fearful aura of dominance. You can easily touch people's hearts. You are beaten by a powerful enemy but can always keep your last breath, because the enemy will always explain your motives and methods of committing crimes to you (although the time is probably not enough). The duration of this skill is activated for 1 minute, the cooling time is 3 hours. During the skill activation, the persuasion increase by 20%, and everyone present will drop by 20%. You will not die when attacked. After all, you are the protagonist of this 1 minute.

Qi Leren felt that his character was more and more like giving secrets to the protagonist, leading the protagonist to level up, and finally dying in front of the protagonist, giving him a wave of assists.
