The Magic City is divided into the real Magic City and the dream Magic City, and the rules of the two sides are similar but different.
I don’t know if it was intentional or accidental, but the rules are very vague and the boundaries are deliberately blurred, waiting for the “players” to test and explore.
Maybe that's the fun of the game.
In Shanghai, every resident should stay where he or she should be.
So, where should you be?
Wealth? Power? Social status?
Or power?
"You... smell so good!" The monster stretched its neck, sniffing the scent of its prey intoxicatedly. "I like young and beautiful women the most. Their flesh is fragrant and tender, and they make a beautiful scream when you bite them."
"Have you eaten many people?"
"GigiGigi..." The monster let out a strange laugh that made people feel physically uncomfortable. It didn't reply. Its huge body blocked the exit, and its small, fierce eyes stared straight at Shen Lanzhou.
"Your level is probably B? Where are you from? Have you always stayed in the Magic City, or did you come from somewhere else?" Shen Lanzhou continued to ask.
The faint fragrance in its nose was too tempting. Although it didn't know why the prey was not afraid of it and had the courage to talk to it, it was already starving and had no mood to chat slowly with its prey.
Shen Lanzhou looked coldly at the monster in front of her drooling and rushing towards her. She stood there in a daze, seemingly frightened.
Just as the long and sharp claws were about to touch my face, an invisible thread cut it in half, and the contents spilled all over the floor.
The monster that was still ferocious in the last second twitched its limbs, struggled for a moment and then became completely motionless.
Not long after, the body turned into smoke and dissipated, leaving behind a tape recorder.
Shen Lanzhou raised his arm, on which was written an Arabic numeral "1".
1 is the number of kills, what is a recorder? Equipment dropped by monsters
I picked up the tape recorder and heard a strange laughter of "Chijichichi..." I pressed the button for a song and heard a strange cry of "GigiGigi..."
Shen Lanzhou switched several times, and all of them were the jade sound broadcast of the monster before.
In short, this thing is useless.
The corner of Shen Lanzhou's mouth twitched, but he endured it and finally did not throw the thing away. Instead, he put it in the shadow warehouse for storage.
Maybe...sometimes it will be useful?
Shen Lanzhou began to think about the entire process of the monster attacking him just now.
The opponent attacked him without any hindrance and received no punishment... No, the punishment was being cut in half by him and having a useless Jade Sound Broadcaster exploded.
So compared to the rules, should it stay here?
Or is it because the rules allow those in lower positions to attack those in higher positions, but will punish those in higher positions who expose themselves?
No... there is too little data to make a judgment.
It's too risky to experiment on yourself, so go observe the other residents.
There are plenty of brainless monsters, and some will step on the minefield themselves.
Silently transforming into a shadow, Shen Lanzhou quietly wandered along the streets and alleys of the dream magic city, sticking to the corners of the walls, observing the big and small events happening in the city with cold eyes.
"Ahhhh, I'm so pissed!"
Hey, isn’t this the multi-legged monster that was standing in front of me at the city gate?
I saw a monster with a human head and a centipede body standing upright towards the sky, waving its legs and limbs with its fangs and claws bared, and screaming madly to the sky.
"Why are you yelling so loudly?"
Opposite him was a goblin-like monster, fifty centimeters tall, with cyan skin, a big head and a small body, and long, pointed nose and ears.
The Goblin was not afraid of the aggressive monster opposite him or the looks from the crowd. He leaned forward and cursed loudly:
"You ate two bowls of eyeball soup, but only paid for one. Are you trying to dine for free? Let me tell you! My boss is the grandson of the second uncle of the brother-in-law of the Titan Gang's deputy leader!
You dare to eat my meal and dine for free? You are dead!"
Something is wrong.
Shen Lanzhou narrowed his eyes. He did it on purpose, deliberately provoking the multi-legged monster that was stronger than himself.
What for? Rules?
After a walk around the city, Shen Lanzhou discovered that in this newly launched dream game, although there were some dream creatures with unusual "fairy-tale-like" appearances as NPCs, there were no explainers like Miss Luo Long, and no one knew the four rules mentioned by Miss Luo Long.
They just act according to the rules of the real Magic City, carefully testing the bottom line of the rules in the dream.
Speaking of which, Miss Luo Long is Shi Meng's maid. She was ordered by Shi Meng to come and greet me and explain the rules. Does that mean I'm eating a piece of my wife's gigolo?
Hey hey hey hey...
The multi-legged monster glared at the other party fiercely: "I! I only ate one bowl!"
The goblin pointed at the wooden table, where two bowls were placed. "There are clearly two bowls!"
"There's a bowl, and you put it there yourself!"
"Bullshit! I'm a businessman, how can I ruin my reputation for the sake of a bowl of rice?! If you're brave enough, cut open your stomach and show me, it's two bowls!"
The centaur suddenly calmed down, staring at the goblin with its scarlet eyes: "Okay, you see clearly."
As he spoke, the man's jaw suddenly dislocated and stretched, opening his mouth wide to swallow the goblin.
The goblin took a step back in horror, watching the foul-smelling mouth about to swallow him whole.
The centaur disappeared.
He left behind a pair of shoes and disappeared silently.
Shen Lanzhou had sharp eyes and saw at a glance that a blood-red Arabic numeral 1 appeared on the goblin's bulging belly, exactly the same as the one on her hand.
The goblin, realizing that he had won the bet, gasped for breath, his forehead covered with fine beads of cold sweat, his face filled with relief and ecstasy for having survived the disaster.
Success...success!
In his ecstasy, a hint of hatred flashed in his little eyes, but it was quickly hidden.
Damn the gang, the dirty, shameless, and vile social parasite gang! They actually let the weak, pitiful, and helpless Lord Jizhi take the risk. Damn it, damn it, damn it!
Just wait! Once I, Master Kezhi, attain godhood and become a true god, I will ruthlessly exact my revenge on you!
After imagining for a while in his mind like Ah Q that he would become a god and live a beautiful life with beauties on every side, the goblin calmed down.
He noticed the shoes left behind by the centaur after its death and the numbers that appeared out of thin air on his body. Being intelligent, he realized that these things were related to the centaur that disappeared out of thin air.
He looked around warily at the monster "players" who were watching coldly but had no intention of taking action.
The goblin trotted over to pick up the shoes, kicked off the tattered straw sandals on his feet, and couldn't wait to put his twisted and deformed little feet into the big shoes that were almost as long as his height.
Sensing the user, the shoe automatically shrinks to the appropriate size.
Feeling his body suddenly become much lighter, the Goblin showed a look of joy. He felt that his speed was now ten times faster than before he put on the shoes!
After taking a cautious look around, the goblin went into the shop.
