Chapter 1005 God's Game: Player's Relics 3
As Yu Xunge was about to enter the Oasis Town, he used the disguise skill [When you're out and about, your identity is something you give yourself].
Three mechanical races are looking for her in this game, and now there's another one, Dawn Cicada. Of course, she wouldn't be unprepared.
The accompanying golden lightning fell into her eyes, turning them gold. Her two pets also separated from her and went about their own business. If they couldn't keep up, they would return to their pet space; if they could help her in the game, they would stay outside.
The moment Yu Xunge stepped into the Oasis Town, a notification sounded in her mind.
Welcome to Free Trade Zone #598
Yu Xunge paused for a moment before starting to search for the game tablet in the game area.
After experiencing three large-scale games in a row, she almost forgot that the first game she participated in was of this format.
During the brief moment that she and Dawn Cicada were locked in a standoff and exchange, a large number of players poured into Oasis Town from all directions. Yu Xunge quickly found the game stone tablet by following the direction where the most players were.
[Game - Got you?] (Countdown: 03:27)
After the countdown ends, the free trade zone will be temporarily closed and converted into a gaming area.
The game lasts for 10 minutes.
Once the game begins, all the mechanical races will temporarily lose their sight. They will then capture players in the game area. Players who are captured must agree to one of the mechanical races' requests, or the final product of the player's relic will automatically be downgraded by one level.
At the end of the game, players who have not been found by the Mechs will be able to choose any material in this free trade zone, with no limit on the quantity.
[Special Mechanism: After the game starts, all players in the game area will temporarily lose the ability to fly.]
[Current number of players in this trading area: 3952]
After reading the game rules, Yu Xunge slipped into the players' ranks and exited from the other side of Oasis Town. She then used her disguise skill again to change her face and also changed into soft, lightweight clothes that would make no sound when she moved. Only then did she circle around a bit and return to Oasis Town.
She made the most of her last moments to browse the stalls.
Since it's a free trading zone, it means that in addition to obtaining materials through gameplay, you should also be able to obtain materials through purchasing.
She walked past one stall after another, her eyes quickly scanning the materials, her ears filled with various inquiries about prices.
All materials here are only accepted as currency, specifically mechanical button batteries, and to obtain this currency...
Yu Xunge stopped in front of a special stall. Most stalls in Oasis Town consisted of a white cloth on the ground with a small robot sitting behind it waiting for players to come and buy. But this stall was a small hut.
There is one of these special little houses every ten stalls.
A mechanical creature sat on a high chair in the room. On the table was a sign that read, "Players can sell items, oddities, skills, and attributes in exchange for mechanical button batteries."
The sign also shows the corresponding purchase price.
For example, an SSS-level item can only be exchanged for 10 mechanical button batteries.
The materials that Yu Xunge just looked at each cost at least three button batteries each. Even though the quality of the materials here is excellent, and many of them are only available elsewhere, the price is still exorbitant.
What's special is that this purchase price is limited to items and artifacts used by the player in the last 200 Star Sea Days. Items used in more than 200 Star Sea Days need to be evaluated by the Machine Race before they can be recycled.
This is clearly limiting players who have accumulated a deep understanding of the game due to long playtime. Whether an item is truly valuable depends entirely on whether it is still useful to its owner.
The final ten-second countdown began to play in the air.
After using [Hide and Seek], Yu Xunge climbed to the top of a tree and put the [Doll Ring Toss] she had taken out in advance when she went to change clothes on her wrist, turning into a plush doll.
Not far from her, Fuxiao Xianchan was searching for something in the crowd with a slight frown between her brows.
3-2-1...
The moment the countdown ended, all the mechanical cube heads clicked and twisted rapidly. Soon, the cubes' azure glow disappeared; perhaps this was what the game's inscription meant when it said they had temporarily lost their sight.
The little robots stretched out their arms and began to walk around and explore. They were quite fast, with an agility of at least 3000, and they started using all sorts of strange and wonderful skills to capture the players.
The desert town isn't small, but it becomes crowded after accommodating over four thousand players. Furthermore, the game restricts flight capabilities, preventing players from hiding in the air, which further shrinks the space available for movement.
Regardless of whether they had played similar games in their own worlds before, players were naturally adept at doing bad things.
Most players started using objects around them to throw at other players, luring the little robots away. Some also used skills, since they could at least use skills on the empty space next to other players, even if they couldn't use them on other players.
Yu Xunge didn't move. She had the skill to hide, so she didn't need to use the tactic of diverting trouble.
Dawn Cicada was not far from her, less than 7 meters away. She stood quietly under a tree, but all the mechanical beings tacitly avoided her. No one knew what skill she had used.
Yu Xunge glanced at the other person out of the corner of his eye and then looked away.
But the next second, the fragrance of flowers enveloped her, and a hand grasped hers.
She was turned halfway around and met the holy yet cold face of Fuxiao Xianchan.
"I really don't understand what's so special about you."
The sound of cicadas chirping softly at dawn, carrying a mocking laugh, is particularly noticeable in the quiet oasis town where only the sound of the wind can be heard.
Instantly, dozens of small robots walked towards them.
Yu Xunge wasn't in a hurry to leave. She wasn't willing to suffer divine punishment for an answer, so she gave Fuxiao Xianchan a questioning look: How did you find me?
You are being watched… You are being watched… You are being watched…
Yu Xun Ge: ? ? ?
Why are you on stage again?
Fuxiao Xianchan clearly heard these sounds as well, but her expression remained unchanged; instead, the sarcasm and mockery in her eyes and brows only intensified.
This made Yu Xunge doubt her own guess.
The phrase "I really don't understand what's so special about you" sounds like it carries a subtle hint of jealousy.
It's possible that they don't understand why the "Grumpy Moon" would choose her as its master.
It's really hurtful when a divine relic chooses another player instead of the player they're supposed to be; the more arrogant a person is, the less they can stand it.
But there is another possibility—the favor of the gods.
Just as Bone Shadow cursed her out of jealousy and resentment, it's not impossible that Dawn Cicada could do the same.
The Foolish Restaurant was besieged by rabbits, the building blocks and I were chased by the Dumb, and the two votes to change the rules were all because of her. The other players are not fools; this kind of attention and focus is a kind of favoritism.
But when the gaze of the gods descended, Fuxiao Xianchan was neither surprised nor moved; on the contrary, it seemed to be filled with hatred.
