Chapter 730 Gods' Game: Blocks and Me 116
Snowflakes were falling heavily in the maze, forming the number 10 in the air, signaling the start of a countdown.
A dozen or so building blocks on her body turned into snow blocks, which was double the play fee at 6 o'clock.
The players sized each other up, and finally their gazes all fell on Yu Xunge.
The battle between the Demon Kings and Overlords has been going on for years. Even though the rankings change frequently, most players with similar strengths know each other. Only this new face is unfamiliar to everyone.
Was it a disguise skill? Or was it a player from another amusement park?
The moment the countdown ended, Yu Xunge rushed in, ignoring the attacks from the other players.
The mysterious power has been activated; she has no need to hide.
Although her future self gave her a hint, she didn't need to change her plans because of that hint.
Or rather, only by continuing to follow her own plan will she reach the moment when she needs to use the "Raging Moon" to return to the past.
Yu Xunge's goal was simple: find the cherry blossom orange white, get the last piece of the "Foolish Game" and leave, then go back to the 15th Month Amusement Park to lie down and finish the rest of the game time.
The game's schedule is already full enough. If the gods and demons are still not satisfied, then let other players use forced invitation cards to invite her.
She was no match for these demon kings and overlords in speed, but that didn't matter; her "defense" was extremely deceptive.
After unleashing over a dozen skills, the opponent didn't even try to dodge, directly taking the hit head-on. The result of this head-on attack was that the building blocks were only slightly dirty.
The player who came out of the same maze entrance attacked her a few times and then decisively switched targets and abandoned her. This is most likely a player who abandoned speed and focused on defense.
The other players who had started at the same time were already fighting and running away. Only then did Yu Xunge hide in a corner and take out [Cat's Ideal] and one of the [Why Isn't the Owl Here Yet] items. After using [The Owl Is Lost] to transfer the remaining cooldown time of [Waste Guide] used in the previous game, she entered time stop.
Stacking buffs is secondary; she needs to run around the map to find the cherry blossom orange and white.
A single [Dumb Game] fragment is unusable, meaning she cannot exchange [Dumb Game] fragments from Sakura Tachibana using the [Free is the most expensive] skill.
This is the second drawback of this skill: it can only exchange for items that the other party has used.
She wanted to get the last fragment from Sakura Orange White, and there were only two options:
One way is to transform into a fat duck to play gashapon games with the other party; the other is to steal by saying "I really want to improve."
She plans to use the first option first, and only switch to the second option if that fails.
Time stop begins.
Yu Xunge first stood still and tidied up the second gashapon machine, filling it with gashapon capsules containing various building blocks.
With the second gashapon machine strapped to her back, she pulled out a downy feather and used the "When you're out and about, your identity is something you give yourself" ability to transform herself into a fat duck.
The disguise was successful; all the building blocks on her body had turned into duck down. She could clearly sense what each duck down represented, but the gashapon machine number one hidden inside her body appeared at her feet.
It cannot be changed.
Yu Xunge eventually shrunk the No. 1 gashapon machine to its smallest size, using its strap as a knot to tie it to the strap of the No. 2 gashapon machine.
Then pull the No. 1 gashapon machine to one-third of the way along the strap of the No. 2 gashapon machine, where it is just right under the duck wing. Finally, go around half a circle and tuck the gashapon machine between the strap and your body.
As long as Yu Xunge doesn't remove the second gashapon machine, even if she lifts her duck wings, no player will discover the second gashapon machine hidden under the wings and straps.
And from this location, it's also convenient for her to get the gashapon capsules from gashapon machine number two.
She stuffed the "Cat's Guide" into the second gashapon machine, packaged it, took out the gashapon, and slipped it through the gap in the strap. The moment she touched the first gashapon machine, it was sucked into the first gashapon machine.
She took out several game item fragments from the 13th month of "Not a Professional at Playing Games" and pieced them together on her body. The moment she successfully pieced them together, these items turned into a down feather.
This is the item she uses to offset the penalty cost when she fails to get a kill every five minutes.
After finishing all that, Yu Xunge slung the gashapon machine over her shoulder and started exploring the map. Even if she found the cherry blossom orange and white ones, she would still explore every corner of the maze during the time stop.
To avoid the need to use Phantom Teleport and Absolute Freedom to escape the maze later if the first transaction fails.
Worried about missing Sakura Orange White, she carried the [Dull Game] the whole time, using the [Block Tracking] arrows on it to determine whether the player she passed was Sakura Orange White—after all, no one could be sure if the other party had changed their form or used a disguise.
It took Yu Xunge more than four hours to not only run through the entire maze map, but also count how many players were on the map.
Her fears about encountering players who could resist time stop during the time stop did not materialize, but the number of players in the maze did indeed exceed her expectations.
491 players.
She remembered the warning given to her future self: do not approach the maze entrance at the 3 o'clock position.
But after running through almost the entire map, Yu Xunge eventually returned to the corner near this entrance. According to the map she had drawn in her mind, turning this corner should lead to the maze entrance at the 3 o'clock position.
She searched the entire map but couldn't find any cherry blossoms in orange or white. This was the only possible location, and the arrow on the [Foolish Game] was pointing in that direction.
Why did she go back in time to block the entrance with cherry blossoms in orange and white?
Is it because the "Dumb Game" feature is lost shortly after the game starts?
Or perhaps someone intervened halfway through the transaction... to stop it?
She lay down in the position of incubating eggs, closed her eyes to rest, and wasted the rest of the time.
[Waste Guide] Since it's already open, it's always good to add more buffs.
...
The moment the time stop ended, Yu Xunge's waste index on the duck feet had exceeded 15,000.
More than 2,000 of them were waste indexes she obtained while using the "Waste Guide" in "Not a Professional Cook", but most of them were accumulated when she used the "Waste Guide" to organize and review her knowledge while taking classes with the Flower Drummer.
Although she spent most of her time studying during those years when she entered time stop, she would sometimes take a short break to recharge when she was too tired.
Therefore, even though intermittent learning not only doesn't increase the waste index but actually deducts it, her waste index has still increased significantly over 30 years of Star Sea, and there's still quite a bit left.
At this moment, Yu Xunge's four main attributes, attack, defense, attack speed, critical hit, hit rate, health and mana regeneration speed, and magic resistance have increased by at least nine times.
She stood there quietly waiting.
Soon, her expression turned strange.
Why did I tell Sakura Tachibana that "Dull Game" was special? And why did I say that I came here specifically for it?
Immediately afterwards, she heard her own voice, as if she were convincing someone...
So this is what it feels like to hear yourself fooling people from an outsider's perspective.
As she listened, she couldn't help but check if her "absolute clarity" was activated.
Great, it's available. It's a skill you start with.
