Chapter 086 Fool's Tales (VII)
Because of the existence of the Eye of Night, Dong Jin was hard to find in the dark.
So until he returned to his residence in the castle, no one noticed his departure.
The first second after returning to the bedroom, Dong Jin took off the Daylight Bracelet hanging on the door and put it back on his left hand - this "Endless Daylight" skill is very useful, but every second is very life-consuming.
Tonight he only opened it for the minimum of 6 hours, but the cooldown time was as long as 42 hours.
If it were usual, Dong Jin would just wait for it to cool down slowly, but this copy was not possible. In order to roam between the two camps, he had to use this thing every night. So he could only pay 10 times the life of the cooldown time to reset the skill.
To be honest, if he continues to spend like this, 1000 days may not be enough for him to squander.
Since there is no way to cut costs, he can only find an opportunity to open up more sources
before he is caught. While thinking, Dong Jin took out another green apple from the tree from his arms, and then raised the hand with the silver chain and covered it - he wanted to use this to do an experiment to see how strong his control over objects in the daytime is within the coverage of "Endless Day".
Day and night correspond to each other remotely, and the applicable range of the two godheads should not be much different. It doesn't make sense that Lei Ming knows everything in the night, but he can only use the fragment of the godhead as an alarm.
"13%? Should I thank fate for showing mercy?"
As the daylight covered the apple, Dong Jin, who had pulled up the "Eye of Truth", updated the information he could see again. In this hazy white light, he saw for the first time the fatality rate of the strange apple to him. He
had thought of using this ability before he jumped from the air. The reason he didn't try it at that time was that he didn't want to be disturbed by the so-called probability.
Not to mention it was only 13%, even if the fatality rate was 99%, he would still eat it without hesitation.
Because for him, not winning the chief MVP is just the difference between the death penalty and suspended death sentence.
Having said that, 13% is a bit too high.
Is it that the mortality rate of each apple fluctuates, and this apple just happens to be a little higher, or is his physical fitness really that bad?
If joining the non-human camp means a mortality rate of more than 10%, according to the concept that the higher the risk, the higher the reward, the abilities given by this camp should not be available only after all evolutions are complete.
Could it be that he already had new abilities when he evolved into a caterpillar, and he himself didn't realize it?
Thinking of this, Dong Jin opened the game panel brought by his own talent.
Sure enough, at this moment, a new text introduction was added to his panel.
[Current status: Caterpillar]
[Attached skill: Poison (only for use in this copy)]
[Skill introduction: The attack carries a toxin, which can cause a certain degree of hallucination in the injured. Increase your own poison resistance by 50%. ］
［Skill evaluation: Ordinary caterpillars only poison the human body, but baby, how can you poison people's hearts? ］
It seems that the rules supplemented by the Supreme Universe still limit the performance of the will of the universe.
Otherwise, with the chatterbox level of the will of the universe, this skill evaluation should start with at least 100 words.
But the point now is not this, the point is that the lethality of the apple is also a kind of toxicity, so the 13% probability just now is actually the result of his improved poison resistance?
If he had improved his physical fitness a little less before, he would probably be lying dead now?
Thinking of this, Dong Jin turned off the "Endless Day" skill and destroyed the green apple.
He knew his luck well, and it was enough to go all out once. He would never eat another bite of kiwi apples until he could find a way to reduce the mortality rate to below 1%.
On the other hand, if the mortality rate decreases with increasing resistance to venom,
then wouldn't the anti-venom serum produced by the most venomous snakes be effective?
Given his current state of offending Snake, what kind of excuse could he make to get this stuff from him? If he had known this was going to happen, he would have been more gentle.
Dong Jin, who was getting a headache the more he thought about it, simply threw away the random thoughts in his mind, closed his eyes and began to fall asleep.
He had been climbing up and down all day today, and if he didn't take a break, he was afraid that he would not be killed by the poison but by exhaustion.
When Dong Jin opened his eyes again, it was already bright.
The little prince had to go to the golden fruit tree with other nobles to pray in the morning, and he would have time for his half-baked music class in the afternoon. So as soon as he woke up, he went into the library in the castle with an excuse to find some music theory books to teach the little prince.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one in the library, Dong Jin directly scanned the catalog of books on the table. After looking at it for a while, he found something wrong: "So many medical books? They are all about improving physical fitness and fighting poison with poison."
Although they are called medical books, most of them are actually manuscripts of wizards compiling magic potions.
After all, how can a fairy tale world be without wizards? It's just that the research direction of wizards in this world is a bit subtle...
After reading the introduction of major historical events in this world and casually reading a few magic potion manuscripts, Dong Jin gradually had new guesses about the story told by the little prince before.
At that time, he thought that "all the kings prayed for the safety of the people and moved to the sky with the fruit trees" was too far-fetched.
But think about it from another angle. What if the nobles were in poor physical condition and did not want to risk their lives to eat kiwi fruits, and did not want the people to awaken their power after eating them, so they found an excuse to move the most precious fruit trees to the sky?
The height of the sky castle can perfectly allow the nobles to avoid the candy rain.
In this way, they have both fame and security.
Isn't this explanation more reasonable than the little prince's previous statement?
"Teacher, you are here. I've been looking for you for a long time! What are you reading?"
When Dong Jin closed the last book in his hand, there was a sound of a door being pushed outside the library. He lifted his eyelids and looked, only to find that it was the little prince who was looking in.
After hurriedly saying that series of words, the little prince had already run to Dong Jin's desk. However, the books on the top of Dong Jin's desk were all music theory books that he had picked out long ago, and this simple prince couldn't see anything unusual.
"What's so good about these books that you spent so much time reading them?"
Dong Jin casually stuffed the books back onto the bookshelf, then said meaningfully: "It's not all these. I also took the time to read an interesting fairy tale."
A fairy tale compiled by the nobles.
A fool's fairy tale about how to fool all creatures on the ground.
"Then you must tell me when you are free. By the way, there is something I need to tell you. There are many visitors in the castle today. They are all the nobles you saved yesterday. They said they wanted to thank you in person again."
"In fact, they told me this when we were praying in front of the fruit tree in the castle this morning. I don't know if you are willing to see them, so let them wait in the garden next to the fruit tree for a while. Do you want to see them now?"
Dong Jin was still thinking about how to naturally shift the topic to the golden fruit tree.
That thing was transplanted to a corner of the castle, and only nobles could get close to it. Dong Jin even planned to take some time to check it out after dark, but he didn't expect that when he felt sleepy, these nobles would directly give him a pillow.
"Thank me? I already received their thanks yesterday evening, why are you so polite?"
Thinking of this, he first declined, and then hesitated, "Now is your music class time, I should have finished today's class for you. But from what you said, they have been waiting for a long time..."
The little prince has always been considerate, and when he heard this, he immediately said, "Why don't we have the class in the garden today?" Dong
Jin, who had planned this, of course would not refuse, so he followed the little prince to the back garden of the castle.
"Mr. Dong Jin, it's really you! Last night my mother came back and said that a gem-like person had come to the castle, and the first person I thought of was you. Please accept this!" As
soon as Dong Jin walked into the garden, princes and princesses from other countries surrounded him in twos and threes.
Some of them even brought a box of gems very honestly, and Dong Jin felt it was dazzling just by glancing at it. It seems that there is indeed a lack of information between the ground and the sky. If these people go down and inquire, they will know that he didn't spend a penny yesterday.
Passing these nobles, Dong Jin's sight paused for a moment on the maid who came with a certain princess.
- That was Duo Rui.
- The trial participant who won the MVP with her talent for knowing lies.
She appeared here at this time, and it seems that she chose the human camp.
At this moment, Duorui was also looking at Dongjin quietly.
Yesterday, she rescued a little princess in the next town, and with the help of that little princess, she sneaked into the sky castle.
But the little princess was too young, and because of the curse, she had to rest at home for a while. The little princess could rest quietly, but Duorui, who was eager to explore the sky castle, couldn't wait any longer.
So she found a way to get a maid position in another princess's house so that she could follow her in and out of the cookie castle.
Duorui thought she had climbed fast.
This copy was called "Fool's Fairy Tale", which was similar to the "Mirage" where she won MVP before. In
just one day, she relied on her talent to sort out the general background of the dungeon, and prepared to unlock as many side quests and advanced quests as possible in the future.
But she didn't expect that she had just touched the edge of the cookie castle, but Dong Jin had already moved in, and was like a fish in water among a bunch of nobles.
Is this the level of the three-time chief MVP?
Being in the human camp with such a person, the victory of this camp is certainly guaranteed, but it is more difficult to stand out.
When she participated in the interview at the Tower of Ascension some time ago, she was in the second half and didn't know the specific situation of the first half.
But when she interacted with the audience in the higher dimensional universe, many of them knew her talent and urged her to ask Dong Jin some questions after the show ended, and then tell them the answers when the next live broadcast started.
Duo Rui did consider doing this at the time.
However, except for the first day, Dong Jin never showed up in the Tower of Ascension. Even though she also lived on the 77th floor, she couldn't find him at all.
The wealth and honor of the world died before she could get it. Duo Rui had already put this matter behind her, but unexpectedly, she happened to enter the same copy as Dong Jin this time.
Now the object of the questioning is in front of her.
Regardless of whether Dong Jin will answer or not, as long as she asks, the popularity of her live broadcast room will not be low.
So should she seize the opportunity to ask him?
