Chapter 73 Safe Zone 1 (4) - Item Instructions

Ning Shu scrolled down to read the comments; the essence of a post is usually found in the comments.

[I'm your grandpa: Damn it, this is clickbait! I thought I'd see something special after clicking, but only the last four words are true!]

[Please be gentle with the game: It's not entirely useless; at least it shows you can beg for food in dungeons, saving you a lot of points.]

When Ning Shu saw the reply from the player with the ID "Please go easy on me in the game," he figured the player must be a noob.

After all, begging is a "skill" that no one with any points would want to do.

【12345: I also saw these 3 people, 2 men and 1 woman. I guess the guy who posted this was in the same dungeon as me, and I also came out at the bottom.

I was shocked when I saw them successfully beg, and it seemed they had been begging for many days.

It seems the three of them later became four. They must have cleared the level in the end, because I saw them covered in injuries, supporting each other as they walked towards the exit.

[Laughing and replying to 12345:]

No way, they actually beat the game? I should have joined them too. Looks like skill isn't about being flashy; being able to beat the game is what matters.

Ning Shu remained silent; this post undoubtedly implied that they were the ones in question.

I never expected that a player would be so bored as to post this kind of thing outside of a dungeon.

Mengjie had seen them begging before, but Tuya hadn't. Tuya even treated them like big shots. It would be so embarrassing for Tuya to know that this post was about them.

Ning Shu decided to pretend she couldn't see the post, even if it was something embarrassing to do.

She remembered that Li Mengqi had said she could buy the prop manuals in the store to see how to use the props, so she quickly went to the store.

There were many products in the online store, and Ning Shu didn't want to search for them one by one. She directly entered keywords into the search bar, and the result showed "an instruction manual".

The game is even getting into abstract concepts? Ning Shu is curious to see how this product is actually used.

Click on it to see the introduction.

[Product Introduction: Are you troubled about how to use the props?]

A powerful instruction manual is here to solve your problems.

By using this product, you will learn how to use the item.

[Product Usage: Touching this product with the item will reveal its specific usage instructions.]

[Friendly reminder: This product is for single use only. It will disappear after 3 days. Please check the results promptly.]

Ning Shu was very interested after reading the introduction. She could also understand the friendly reminder, since the game was not a game and the product was disposable, which she could accept.

She still had two props she didn't know how to use, and was planning to buy two, but her face froze when she saw the purchase button.

What?! This thing costs 10 points each? Isn't it a one-time use item? Is it reasonable to sell it for so much? Is it reasonable?

10 points = 3 months' worth of safe zone fees = 1 month's rent for a single room in the safe zone = 5 meals.

The price of this product is outrageous!

Although Ning Shu currently has 95 points, she is reluctant to spend 20 points just to buy an instruction manual, so she only bought one.

After receiving the instruction manual, she didn't rush to take it out; instead, she took out the props first.

The props she currently possesses are: a sharp blade (3001), a pair of couple bracelets (207), and ordinary glasses (138).

She didn't plan to look at the blade anymore. After using it a few times, it seemed that it didn't really have any special use except for cutting things.

She hadn't dared to use the couple's bracelet because she didn't know what it was for, and what if it was a forced connection with someone else, which would be troublesome.

As for the glasses, she'd used them in the dungeon and figured they should have a similar effect.

She thought she might as well try it out first, so she put on the glasses and looked around. The room lights were off, to save electricity.

The words "【Ceramic Water Cup】" are followed by a line with an arrow pointing to the spot where Ning Shu placed her water cup.

The room door, the wardrobe, and the quilt—these items all appeared within the glasses' field of vision.

As expected, the usage is similar to that in the dungeon, so there's no need to test this one.

Therefore, the instruction manual should only be used to test how to use the couple's bracelet, since this tool is not easy to test, and it would be troublesome if something went wrong.

Ning Shu materialized the instruction manual and then touched the couple's bracelet.

[Item Name: A pair of couple's bracelets.]

[How to use the prop: Each person wears it on one wrist.]

【Item Function: Two people wearing the bracelet can share each other's talent skills, but can only exert half of the power of each other's talent skills.

If the opponent lacks innate skills, it does not affect their ability to share your innate skills.

[Friendly Reminder: This skill can only be used once per instance. It will be invalidated if you remove the skill and switch characters. Sharing skills carries risks; please use with caution.]

This item is great! It's not the kind of forced binding relationship she was thinking of; it actually allows for shared skills!

If that's the case, then she can use Cheng Chuan's cool and amazing talent skill. Just thinking about it makes me happy.

However, the other party has to be willing to share her skills, since her skills have such significant side effects that not everyone might be willing to share them.

Ning Shu decided to persuade Cheng Chuan to use this item in the next instance, hmph.

Because Ning Shu stayed up too late browsing forums and working on props last night, she woke up late the next day.

No one was home, so she opened the game panel and checked the messages in the "Sister Meng's Little Brothers" group.

[One City After Another: Wu Yi and I went to train at the Little Universe Burst area.]

[Dreaming of adversity while searching for WiFi: I'm going to Stormy Weather on a mission.]

"Universe Burst" is a training camp that Ning Shu and his friends paid 20 points in installments to enter. Ning Shu will also go, but he wants to go tomorrow.

"Dreaming of Adversity to Find WiFi" is Li Mengqi's game nickname, and "Storm" is the name of the organization she belongs to.

So everyone else has something to do today, except her.

After dinner, Ning Shu planned to go out for a walk. After all, she had just finished the dungeon and moved to a new house, so she wanted to go out and draw a map of the surrounding area.

It's a pity the map can't be shared, otherwise she could share today's findings with Cheng Chuan and the others.

Before leaving, Ning Shu wanted to take the props with her. Her hands were already very powerful, so she didn't need to bring weapons. However, her hands weren't something that could be destroyed.

For example, game items, or special items for dungeons.

She concluded that her hands were primarily capable of destroying things that "have living attributes".

For example, players can destroy plants and trees, but while they can also destroy stone walls, it consumes more energy and the skill usage time is shorter.

She plans to materialize the glasses prop and wear it to explore whether it has any other potential uses.

When she materialized this time, she found that a line of text was displayed on the game panel.

Should we change the item's appearance?
