Chapter 434 [(*^▽^*)]
Xue Rui seemed not to hear, quickly tidied himself up, lay down on the bed, closed his eyes, and at the same time, spent 1,000 points to go to Happiness Community.
When the points were successfully deducted, Xue Rui knew he had succeeded. He hoped Lin Leyou was at home right now, so that the points wouldn't have been wasted.
For Xue Rui, success wasn't just about successfully arriving at the Happy Community instance; it was about having Lin Leyou present when he arrived, otherwise his points would have been wasted.
Fortunately, after leaving the instance, Lin Leyou only returned to his home and did not appear anywhere else, which is good. This way, he doesn't have to worry about being ambushed outside, just like when he was ambushed by the Jiang family last time. He is much safer now. It seems that he has made many improvements in the past six months.
Lin Leyou sat on the sofa waiting for Xue Rui. He knew Xue Rui would definitely come and would arrive soon, so he just had to wait.
There's another point. After all, it's only been six months since the beginning, and many players must have already spent all their points. Not all players can resist converting their points into real money.
With a larger number of players, the number of dungeons that need to be opened must also be large. The Happy Community dungeon will definitely not be missed, and Xue Rui will definitely be able to enter.
Sure enough, he received a message as soon as he got home that the Happy Community instance had been opened. This time, he was still a random NPC and only needed to be a background character in the instance.
He had only been sitting on the sofa for less than five minutes when there was a knock on the door. Lin Leyou smiled and got up to open the door. Sure enough, it was Xue Rui outside, not those blind, useless ghosts.
Lin Leyou smiled and said, "You're here? Come in..."
Xue Rui stepped into the house and felt much more relaxed. To be honest, he really preferred this place to his so-called home in the real world; it felt so warm here.
"Brother Lin... are you waiting for me?"
Lin Leyou was wearing pajamas, clearly intending to go to sleep, but he opened the door very quickly after knocking, which meant he was definitely in the living room.
"Yeah, I knew you'd be here soon, so I got up and waited for you to knock on the door. By the way, didn't I give you the key? Why don't you use it to open the door yourself?"
Xue Rui suddenly said, "I still prefer the feeling of someone opening the door for me."
Lin Leyou was stunned for a moment. In his previous life, apart from the time he was in school, he had been living on construction sites for decades after he went out to work, sharing a room with several other people. So he really longed for a home that belonged to him alone.
Therefore, he disliked other people frequently appearing in his private spaces. Of course, for some reason, he felt very little, if not none, towards Xue Rui. It would be different with other people...
Lin Leyou said, "In that case, just knock on the door from now on. I'll open it for you as soon as I'm home."
He casually closed the door, and in that instant, he saw a dark figure flash by outside. He nonchalantly looked away and closed the door again.
Since these ghosts can't get into my house anyway, I'll just let them wander around outside. As long as I don't bother them, it's fine.
Perhaps the ghosts outside also bully the weak and fear the strong, knowing that Lin Leyou and Xue Rui are not to be trifled with, so they didn't cause any trouble in this area, and it was very quiet outside.
Xue Rui went straight into the room. "Brother Lin, do you still have the pajamas I gave you before?"
Lin Leyou: "Of course, find it yourself, it's in the closet."
Xue Rui indeed found the pajamas he had worn before in the closet, all of which had been washed and were hanging neatly inside. He nodded in satisfaction, then took the clothes and went into the bathroom.
Lin Leyou smiled slightly, walked into the bedroom, lay down again, leaned against the headboard, and casually browsed some news on his phone. It was all news from the Endless World, nothing serious, just some minor issues.
However, as he read on, he came across a post complaining about how incredibly difficult the mission was, which seemed quite intriguing to him, so Lin Leyou kept reading until the end.
After reading it, he realized that he could also go to this instance. This mission cannot be entered by simply signing up; you need to register and then go through a selection process.
As for how to select them, no one knows what the selection criteria are. Sometimes a newcomer can be selected, and sometimes it is an ordinary resident with no special skills. Sometimes it is an expert, but many people are not sure about the criteria. In short, everyone says it depends on luck.
The contents of this instance are completely unknown. All residents who have entered have signed a non-disclosure agreement, and they cannot tell anyone except themselves. They cannot even communicate with other people who have been to this instance. It seems that not everyone who enters this instance has the same mission.
Of course, it might be the same; the system does this just in case.
After reading the post, Xue Rui came out of the bathroom with his hair still wet and a dry towel around his neck. He quickly walked over and said, "Brother Lin, dry my hair for me."
Lin Leyou blinked, casually tossed aside her phone, sat up straight, took the dry towel from his neck to dry his hair, and asked with a smile, "Are you being affectionate?"
Xue Rui raised an eyebrow, "Does Brother Lin like to see me act cute?"
Lin Leyou's lips curled into a smile. "If I could see it, that would be great."
Xue Rui turned to look at him, his bright black eyes staring at Lin Leyou through his wet hair. This caught Lin Leyou off guard. "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"
Xue Rui: "It's not that simple to see me act cute."
Lin Leyou continued drying his hair, "So tell me, what conditions need to be met?"
Xue Rui said, "If Brother Lin can act cute with me too, then I can act cute with you too, how about it?"
Lin Leyou paused slightly, his expression turning somewhat strange. Ask him to act cute? Although he looked like he had only recently come of age, his mental age was indeed quite advanced.
He really couldn't accept being asked to act cute, and then sighed, "You really like to give me difficult questions. Do you think I'm not willing?"
Xue Rui touched his hair, which was already half dry, then took the towel from Lin Leyou's hand and threw it on the bedside table. He then turned over and lay down on the other side of the bed.
Lin Leyou said, "Your hair isn't dry yet, don't lie down."
Xue Rui obediently sat up. "Brother Lin is really cunning. He wants to see me act cute, but he doesn't want to do it himself."
Lin Leyou looked at him and wanted to laugh a little. After all, in his memory, the image of Xue Rui from his previous life was also very deep, although for him now, the Xue Rui in front of him was the most real.
Lin Leyou, "Are you angry? Angry at me?"
Xue Rui shook his head, "How could I be angry? I would never be angry with Brother Lin."
Lin Leyou took the phone and showed it to Xue Rui, "Take a look at this post."
He was clearly trying to change the subject. Xue Rui glanced at him but didn't refuse. He then finished reading the post. "This reward is really good."
Indeed, a post like this wouldn't normally attract Lin Leyou's attention, but the rewards described here are truly exceptionally generous: 5 million points for successfully completing the task, 20 each of stamina pills, constitution pills, and spirit pills! There's even a gold-tier weapon item card!
A single physical fitness and constitution pill is worth 500,000 points, a single mental pill is worth 1 million points, and a gold-tier weapon/item card is worth 10 million points. They are very valuable, and compared to that, the initial reward of 5 million points seems rather insignificant.
"So many good things... especially these three kinds of pills..."
To this day, Xue Rui has never seen such a pill.
Lin Leyou said, "These pills are available for sale. There's a market for them here. The first two types of pills cost 500,000 points each, and the latter cost 1 million points each. You can calculate how many points each of the 20 pills is worth."
Xue Rui did a quick calculation, then said in a somewhat serious tone, "A total of thirty million."
Lin Leyou nodded, "And the gold-tier weapon item card that comes with it costs at least ten million points. If you can specify a weapon for it, it could sell for fifty million or even sixty million points."
Even Xue Rui was stunned by these numbers. "This...this instance...can we go?"
Lin Leyou: "I don't know. Even if you sign up for this instance, you still need to be selected, but no one knows what the criteria are. Although everything is unknown, there are still a lot of people signing up, but very few will be selected in the end. But I want to give it a try."
Xue Rui was somewhat disappointed. "It seems I won't be able to get in."
Lin Leyou waved his hand, "That's not necessarily true."
Xue Rui was slightly taken aback. "Brother Lin, do you have a solution?"
Lin Leyou, "Actually, you should have realized this even if I didn't say it. We always run into each other in the same instance. What if we took advantage of that..."
Xue Rui's expression changed several times, but he still hesitated, "Then... is it really possible to enter the same instance?"
Lin Leyou said, "I'm not sure about that either, so I said I wanted to give it a try. I'll sign up first, and if I'm selected, I'll tell you the time. When you enter the instance on that day, you can also participate in the instance at the same time. That's still possible."
Then he changed the subject, "Of course, this is on the premise that I get selected. If I'm not selected, then forget what I just said, and I won't be able to get these good things anymore."
Xue Rui calmed down a bit. "Brother Lin is right. All of this depends on whether you can be selected. I wonder what the criteria are. Could it be that there are no criteria and it's all just random selection?"
Lin Leyou thought for a moment, "That's possible, no one can say for sure."
He opened his panel and looked in the job postings, but couldn't find any hints for the task. Could it be that he couldn't apply for the task through the job postings panel, but had to go to a specific place?
