The King of Black Fog

"The situation is turning grim," one said.

"Hasn't it always been like this?" came the reply.

Eagles soar through the sky, fish dart in the shallow waters,...

Chapter 127 The Harvest at Settlement

"I want to go alone!" Amidst the fiery meteors, Li Changzhou turned to Li Qianxia and said.

A snowy owl flew over and its wing brushed against his face, much like a goose in a honey pot world.

"You're a grown man, arguing with a woman over such trivial matters!" the snowy owl grumbled.

“I believe in gender equality.” Li Changzhou brushed her aside and pulled the Emerald Bee Sword from the bus’s fuel tank.

"You're the older brother!"

"Now you know I'm your brother? Go pick up the ID card, don't stay on me."

"Hmph!" The snow owl gave him another wing before flying towards the Devil City.

Don't forget your equipment!

"I know—" Li Qianxia said, drawing out the last syllable of her voice, feigning dissatisfaction.

Li Changzhou chuckled and walked towards Yang Qinglan, who also held the Emerald Bee Sword, her long hair flowing down to her slender waist.

The ground was littered with corpses, and the fire around them was still raging. The two men were facing each other, and it looked like a scene from a martial arts drama where the male and female protagonists were having a duel.

"Not bad?" Li Changzhou asked her with a grin.

"You've killed all the players, when am I supposed to level up?" Yang Qinglan raised her hands, gathered her silky black hair, and tucked the Emerald Bee Sword back into her hair.

"Next time, I'll give it all to you next time." Li Changzhou also put the Emerald Bee Sword back into his sleeve.

The three collected all the identity cards, making sure none were missing, and with so many props and equipment that their backpacks couldn't hold them all, they quickly drove to the station.

This game has additional restrictions on bus players. If the bus breaks down midway, the unparalleled Li Changzhou will have already suffocated himself before he starves to death in the Devil City (the dungeon abandons the Honey Pot World).

Once they arrived at the bus stop and confirmed that they could return, the three of them began to process their identity cards.

Yang Qinglan didn't have much to say, except for the assistance of the kimono-clad woman, the strange man, and the samurai.

Li Qianxia was the same, but she had twins who shared her brother's value, experience, and game currency. They were like carriages hanging on the locomotive, doing nothing but hanging on two iron wheels, enough to carry even a pig.

[Bus ticket*4, subway ticket*2, ferry ticket*1]

"Remember to allocate all the value and game currency to the white card," Yang Qinglan reminded him.

Li Qianxia pouted pitifully. She didn't get any of the things allocated on the white card; the train engine had lost its connection with her.

No, she became the locomotive!

The pitiful amount of experience she received was to be shared with Li Changzhou's black card!

(Game currency allocation - Black: 0 coins; White: 2300 coins)

(Value points allocation - Black: 0 points; White: 200 points)

Two hundred experience points are just enough for a white card to level up and gain two attribute points.

Li Changzhou tried it and found that he could not assign it to attributes that were already full, such as 'Strength', but could only assign it to 'Perception'.

'Perception' has been raised to 9 points, just 1 point away from the full value of all four items.

Including Li Qianxia's experience this time, Li Changzhou's black card only needs 154 points to upgrade to level 4, and he can also get 2 attribute points.

If Yang Qinglan hadn't exchanged for attributes during the Prague event, she would have fallen far behind the siblings. But without her, Li Changzhou wouldn't have become so strong so quickly, and Li Qianxia wouldn't even have survived the first game.

"Is there any reaction from the black mist?" The two female college students stared intently at him.

If Li Changzhou can bestow skills upon others without any side effects, the three of them will immediately make rapid progress, and their skill sets will be able to catch up with the national team.

“I don’t feel anything, but the upgrade should bring changes. Which of you will give it a try?” Li Changzhou asked the two.

Li Qianxia shook her head, her ponytail swaying back and forth like a cat's tail.

"Stop playing around," Yang Qinglan said helplessly, "Just try it already."

The three of them had already discussed this experiment.

Li Changzhou took out an identity card—an identity card confiscated in Prague—and picked out an animal one.

The black mist reached out, grabbed a skill from a deceased person's identity card, and placed it on the selected identity card, reducing the skill level by one.

The three of them stared intently, but three minutes later, the identity card still hadn't turned into a worthless deceased identity card.

"You—" Li Changzhou looked at them, "Who's coming?"

According to the plan, it was their turn.

Li Qianxia pursed her lips, remaining silent; she still didn't dare.

"I'll do it," Yang Qinglan said.

"Qinglan!" Li Qianxia grabbed her, "Let's find another player to try it out on the spot!"

Yang Qinglan gave her a reassuring smile and handed her ID card to Li Changzhou.

"Never mind." Li Changzhou didn't answer.

“We agreed on this.” Yang Qinglan looked at him.
