Chapter 005: Eating Watermelons in Wanjing Garden (5)

Liu Tang became even more excited when he learned that the dungeon boss unlocking rate had reached 100%.

Just as I was looking forward to seeing who the boss who led their NPCs was, I felt a sharp pain in my brain.

He closed his eyes and tried to steady himself. When the stinging pain subsided, he opened his eyes again and found a few lines of words in front of him:

[Congratulations. Your role has been upgraded from 'Guide NPC' to 'Instance Boss'.]

[Exploration points are being calculated...]

[Settlement completed]

[Current accumulated exploration points: 3751]

[Detailed information can be found in the System Dashboard.]

Then, Liu Tang gradually remembered the various things that the boss could do, as well as his main quest:

Explore the players' secrets, earn exploration points, and redeem your freedom.

He looked at Feng Xiansu, who was looking at him with horror, and found three indicators appeared on her head.

[Clearance Points: 0]

【Goodness value: 24】

[Evil value: 98]

Liu Tang, who unlocked the boss's special memory, quickly understood the meaning of these three indicators.

Clearance points are the reward points that players will receive every time they clear a hell copy.

This is the other party's first time entering the dungeon, so naturally the points are 0.

Good value and evil value are evaluations of the positive and negative impacts of a girl’s past behavior on everything around her.

As long as Liu Tang carefully examines the numerical values, he will see the specific images that cause these numerical changes:

She once fed a stray cat, so her kindness value increased by 1; she once bullied a classmate, but the situation was not serious, so her evil value increased by 40...

Liu Tang lowered his gaze and discovered that threads of different colors extended from Feng Xiansu's wrist, representing the cause and effect between her and other people.

Before, Feng Xiansu's attitude towards Liu Tang gradually changed from bad to fearful, but more of it was still disdain.

At this moment, she clearly saw that the "NPC" sign above the other person's head had turned into "Boss", and the whole person had become as quiet as a cicada.

The girl regretted not stacking, why couldn't she control herself! Why did she have to provoke the biggest boss of the dungeon when there were so many people to provoke?

The eight people in the garden were waiting for what would happen next with different thoughts.

Except for the pilot, the other new players were all terrified.

Zhou Youwei originally wanted to attack the pilot, but he was frightened by the other party's murderous eyes and did not dare to step forward.

Min Liang nudged Mo Qianhe beside him with his elbow and asked suspiciously, "You didn't expect this dungeon to unlock a boss, did you? Will the boss spawn some rare items?"

Mo Qianhe was helpless: "I'm not a god."

At this moment, the bronze mirror that had fallen to the ground slowly floated up and hovered in a position where all players could see the mirror.

Liu Tang's handsome face was reflected in the mirror.

He cleared his throat and then said in a serious tone, "Attention everyone! This is a special summons from the boss. Please reach the Moon Viewing Platform as quickly as possible. Those who deliberately delay will bear the consequences."

After hearing this order, the smile on the pilot's face became even colder.

Zhou Songyang looked down at the compass in his hand and found that the word "Su" on the pointer had changed to "Yue" and the direction of the pointer had also changed.

Now that the crisis is at hand, they don't have the energy to argue with this suddenly crazy pilot about the whole story.

After Zhou Songyang consulted with the two veteran players, he gathered the others and headed in the direction indicated by the compass.

At this time, Feng Wenbai still consciously supported his staggering wife and hurried forward.

Seeing this, Qian Guizhi did not try to pull her best friend. She glanced at her son who was walking in front of her, not knowing how to deal with this complicated relationship.

Shen Yulan leaned against her husband and said worriedly, "Since we are going to fight the Boss, aren't we going to die if we go like this?"

The red-haired boy temporarily pulled his thoughts away from the melodrama and answered seriously, "The NPC said that if you don't go, you'll have to bear the consequences. You might even trigger some fatal conditions. It's better to obey and go there. There might still be a chance of survival."

Others stopped asking questions, and at this point they could only take things one step at a time.

Mo Qianhe walked briskly. Although he didn't know what tricks the boss would use, he was very happy to see Liu Tang again.

He hoped that after defeating the Boss, he could successfully bring Liu Tang out of the dungeon, so that he would not have wasted his time spending a thousand points to purchase the "designated dungeon admission ticket".

As he was thinking, Mo Qianhe heard Liu Tang's voice again in his mind:

[Hahahaha~ I'm the boss now, I have to squeeze all the gossip out of them!]

Mo Qianhe was slightly startled.

It turns out that Liu Tang is not only an NPC, but also a dungeon boss.

This is a difficult situation. The Boss is the cornerstone of the existence of a dungeon, and I don’t know if I can bring him out successfully.

Forget it, I don’t want to think about it anymore. If I don’t succeed this time, I’ll try a few more times.

[Give me some melon seeds, peanuts, and candy, and eat them while I listen~]

[Prepare some tea~ They can drink if they get thirsty from talking~]

Mo Qianhe listened to Liu Tang's cheerful voice as he prepared various drinks and snacks, and his mood became cheerful again.

This was the happiest day for him since he lost contact with Liu Tang.

The moon-viewing platform is built on a lotus pond. You can look up at the bright moon and look down to appreciate the lotus flowers, which is quite interesting.

When the group of eight arrived, they saw two rows of tables in the spacious table, arranged in the shape of a long "U".

The upper position is on the narrowest side of the character "回", and the other positions are on the longer left and right sides.

The table was filled with all kinds of snacks and drinks, as if to entertain them.

The NPC who had led the way was now sitting in the upper seat, while Feng Xiansu was sitting stiffly in the first seat at the corner to his left.

Liu Tang stood up and enthusiastically asked everyone to sit down on both sides. He glanced at each person and found that various causal lines connected them.

[Huh? So this pilot lady has a connection to both families? I never realized that~]

Mo Qianhe sat down in the first seat on Liu Tang's right without hesitation, listened to Liu Tang's thoughts, and looked at him.

[Wait a minute? Why is there a causal connection between this handsome guy and me?]

Liu Tang looked at his hands in shock, somewhat puzzled.

When Mo Qianhe heard this, he was angrily complaining: Nonsense, you are a heartless person.

Then, he heard the other party think:

[Tsk tsk, this guy is incredibly handsome up close! ]

Mo Qiangan:...

Well, he forgave this amnesiac little salted fish.

He pretended to casually straighten his chest and raise his head, revealing his beautiful jawline.

Min Liang took a few steps forward and sat down next to Mo Qianhe.

Others were still hesitating, not knowing whether they should sit down, and if so, where they should sit.

Feng's mother, Shen Yulan, saw her daughter and rushed over to sit beside her. She held her cold hand and asked about her well-being: "Susu, are you okay? Did he hurt you?"

Feng Xiansu forced a smile and replied, "No, it's okay."

She thought that in terms of hurt, her family members had hurt her the most.

Zhou's father, who was not far away, frowned and looked at Liu Tang who was sitting in the upper seat, thinking that he had always sat in the upper seat wherever he went.

If the boss doesn't come, then no matter who takes the seat, it shouldn't be this dispensable NPC, right?

So he questioned Liu Tang, "Didn't you say the Boss summoned us? Why are you sitting at the top? As a guide NPC, shouldn't you have other things to do?"

When Mo Qianhe heard this, he frowned unconsciously.

Feng Xiansu, who was sitting opposite him, closed her eyes in despair.

This is indeed her biological father, as brainless as she is, and he only chooses to offend the boss.

Liu Tang was questioned rudely, but he did not show any displeasure on his face.

He smiled faintly, lighting up the red boss icon above his head again, and said a little embarrassedly, "Ah, sorry, sorry, let me introduce myself. I am the boss of our 'Evil Mirror Hell Ding Ba Wan Jing Garden' dungeon."

Zhou Youwei, who had been so arrogant just now, suddenly fell silent and his face gradually became terrified.

Liu Tang poured himself some tea while patiently explaining, "When the Boss logo was revealed earlier, it frightened Miss Feng Xiansu. I was worried it would scare you guys too, so I thought it would be better to hide it."

After saying that, Liu Tang hid the sign again and continued to invite others to take a seat.

When the others saw that the people in front of them had sat down and seemed to be fine, they all sat down too.

Zhou Youwei knew that he had offended the boss above him, so he didn't dare to step forward and sat far away at the end.

His wife Qian Guizhi looked at his cowardly appearance and rolled her eyes in disdain.

The live broadcast room was extremely lively at this moment. The audience from all the cameras in the dungeon had already crowded in front of the cameras on the moon viewing platform, actively discussing:

"I almost died of laughter. That uncle surnamed Zhou turned pale with fear."

"I really don't understand his brain. Even if he's an NPC, not a boss, it's none of his business where he wants to sit, right?"

"When it comes to the ability to offend the Boss, Sister Feng is truly the descendant of her biological father."

"I don't know if this boss will kill the players. In other dungeons, if the boss appears, there is a 90% chance that people will die."

"I feel like, given the nature of this instance, there's going to be some new news."

"Hahaha, come on, let me see how explosive these few people can be."

"You've been in the dungeon for quite a while and haven't had any water. You must be very thirsty, right? You can eat and drink whatever you want on the table. Don't be polite!" Liu Tang warmly entertained.

The players nodded to show that they understood, and looked at each other, not daring to actually eat the food on the table.

Who knows if there is anything fishy about these things.

Only Mo Qianhe had no scruples and took a big gulp of the sour plum soup on the table.

Not to mention, it tastes quite refreshing.

Min Liang looked at the relaxed Mo Qianhe in surprise, and thought to himself that Brother Mo was indeed a man of great skill and courage, even daring to eat the things given by the dungeon boss. He was indeed a role model for our generation.

Seeing him looking at him eagerly, Mo Qianhe said lightly, "It's edible, don't worry."

Min Liang smiled at him but still didn't take any action.

He was really scared of being deceived by this person. Who knows whether he really ate it or whether he has any detoxification items.

The comments expressed high approval of Min Liang's behavior:

"Boss Minliang is right. Don't trust the liar Mo, otherwise you won't even know how your underwear disappeared."

"Do you think this liar Mo really ate or just pretended to eat?"

"Stop analyzing. Once you start analyzing, you've fallen into the trap of the liar Mo."

Seeing that no one was interested in eating, Liu Tang, who was sitting at the main seat, stood up, holding a glass of sour plum soup and said:

"We're gathered here today to celebrate the first unlocking of this boss's identity! I'd like to express my special thanks to everyone for their hard work! Thanks to everyone for hiding the truth from each other and messing around with the dungeon furnishings, my identity was unlocked so quickly! I wish you all continued success in other dungeons!"

After saying that, he drank the sour plum soup in one gulp and clapped enthusiastically. Mo Qianhe, who was standing next to him, was amused and started clapping actively as well.

The others had complicated expressions and were forced to cooperate in a disjointed manner.

The pilot sitting next to Zhou Youwei at the very end looked confused. This boss didn't want to kill anyone, and he didn't say he wanted to "fight". Why was what he said different from what the red-haired boy said?

The barrage can no longer hold back:

"Hahahahahahaha, taunting to the max is the way to go."

"This boss knows how to get angry."

"Other dungeon bosses unlocked: Let's start killing! Niejing Dingba boss unlocked: Thank you all for your hard work! Eat and drink well!"

"It was really hard to be serious. I was rolling on the floor laughing."

Seeing the players in the distance still cowering, Liu Tang said, "Don't worry, I won't kill you."

Hearing this, Zhou Songyang breathed a sigh of relief.

Then Liu Tang continued, "After all, seven of you were killed in the plane crash, and you can't be any deader."

Zhou Songyang: ...I feel really comforted.

"As the dungeon boss, what I need most is secrets; and what you all want most is to complete the dungeon safely, right?" Liu Tang continued.

No one said a word when asked by others.

Only Mo Qianhe spoke clearly and clearly to maintain the atmosphere: "Yes!"

[This handsome guy is so supportive, I love him so much! ]

Liu Tang looked at Mo Qianhe, smiled, then turned his gaze to the others and said, "So as long as you share the secrets that satisfy me, I will let you pass."

Shen Yulan looked at the young man in the main seat with surprise: "Really?"

Liu Tang nodded: "Of course it's true. But these secrets must be interesting enough and secretive enough. Otherwise, it will be difficult for me to be satisfied. And don't lie, or I will know."

After saying that, he smiled and looked at everyone.

The few people looked at the boss with a beautiful smile, and felt even more terrified.

A group of face-watchers immediately emerged in the live broadcast room:

"Ahhhh, he smiled at me! He has me in his heart!"

"Who's that person in front? Even the Boss can...Ah! This is my new wife!"

"Nie Jing Ding Ba, right? I'll go get the next one right away!"

"Although he has a nice smile, his aura is scary."

"Villain beauty, love love."

"Exciting, so exciting, it turns out eating melons can be so exciting."

In the picture, all the players sitting at the table, except Mo Qianhe, avoided eye contact, just like students in class who were afraid of being called by the teacher.

Seeing no one speak up, Liu Tang turned his gaze to Zhou's father, whose evil value exceeded 1,000, and stared at the causal connection between him and Feng's father, with great interest. "How about this Mr. Zhou Youwei, please speak first? I'm very interested in the emotional entanglement between you and Mr. Feng Wenbai."
