Chapter 30 Brain Teasers
The speed at which they can be killed is far slower than the speed at which the zombies move forward.
They held out for only a minute and a half before the zombies swarmed up in front of them.
"ah!"
Taking advantage of Jiang Luo's unpreparedness, a zombie swung its claw at him.
A huge, poisonous green hand swung across the screen, startling Jiang Luo.
At the critical moment, Yan Zihe flashed in front of Luo Luo and protected her tightly.
They had just said not to move, but now they stood like an impregnable wall, bravely blocking Luo Luo's path.
In this game, protecting Luo Luo is Yan Zihe's sole mission.
Every time Luo Luo was in danger, he would risk his life to save her.
"Hiss—" Yan Zihe gasped in pain.
Immediately afterwards, his white coat was stained red with blood once again.
Unlike when he was hit by the wall, this time, after Yan Zihe was injured, a blood bar unexpectedly appeared on the top of his head.
"Bang."
Jiang Luo quickly dealt with the zombies in front of her.
Unexpectedly, Yan Zihe suffered another blow.
"hiss--"
My health bar has dropped by more than half again.
If this continues... Yan Zihe won't die, will he?
She glanced at the online store out of the corner of her eye, clicked on it quickly, and without even browsing, ordered the most expensive item directly from the price list.
[Super Tank, 188 Gold Coins]
The moment the purchase button was clicked, a loud "boom" was heard, and the screen showed an earthquake shaking violently.
Then, a giant tank descended from the sky, gleaming brightly.
An arrow appeared next to the tank. Jiang Luo pointed at it, and she and Yan Zihe slipped into the cabin.
There are electronic screens inside the cabin, which show the surrounding situation.
Jiang Luo operates the steering wheel and the launcher.
"Hmph, let you bully my Yan Zihe!" she muttered.
Yan Zihe leaned back in his chair, gazing at her with a relaxed and contented expression.
Jiang Luo was completely unaware, her mind and eyes fixed on the zombies.
The operation is not difficult; she controls the direction with one hand and frantically taps the launch button with the other.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
...
The sound effects of the super tank are much grander than those of the super cannon, like a muffled thunder in summer, shaking the heavens and the earth.
In an instant, dust flew up, turning everything gray.
Once the dust settled, looking at the zombies scattered on the ground, Jiang Luo sniffed.
snort.
The supertank disappeared, and Jiang Luo and Yan Zihe returned to the ground.
A burst of light, and the piles of zombies vanished.
The playground returned to tranquility.
Yan Zihe's injuries were still there, and Jiang Luo clicked on the medical room she had previously purchased.
Scene switching.
All I could see were those ambiguous pinks and roses.
Leaning against the headboard, Yan Zihe asked with a half-smile, "What is that?"
"That's a supertank! Isn't it incredibly powerful?" Thinking of something, Jiang Luo said proudly, "See? This is the power of my money!"
Yan Zihe pursed his lips.
A drop of kindness deserves a spring of gratitude in return.
That life-saving grace deserves to be repaid with a great deal of goodwill, doesn't it?
Jiang Luo stared intently at the screen, waiting.
It was completely empty and unresponsive.
Um?
After scrutinizing Yan Zihe for a while, Jiang Luo decided to take the initiative: "I just saved your life, so don't be too grateful to me."
His dark eyes were calm and serene. After a long while, Yan Zihe curled the corners of his mouth and replied with a rather amused expression, "Okay."
Good...good about what?
Jiang Luo fainted.
She didn't give up and added, "What I mean is, you don't need to be too grateful to me, but a little gratitude is fine too."
[Favorability +1]
The amount you're repaying for saving my life is far too small!
Jiang Luo remained silent.
She angrily ordered the medicine, finished treating Yan Zihe, and quickly returned to the chapter.
A beam of light appeared in the center of the playground.
Before Yan Zihe could arrive, Jiang Luo strode towards the light.
"Aren't you scared anymore?" Yan Zihe moved faster than her and soon caught up with her.
Jiang Luo replied nonchalantly, "Of course I'm not afraid! I'm the bravest!"
After defeating the boss, the next step is to collect items.
Jiang Luo's bravery is based on her gaming experience, not on her courage.
Hearing her boastful words, Yan Zihe let out a sneer.
Jiang Luo: "..."
You're just a game character AI, can you please stop mocking me all the time?
As she continued walking, Jiang Luo was able to see clearly when she got closer.
The props this time are a bit strange.
It's a machine that extends out from the ground. It's square-shaped and has a black button and a white button on it.
What the heck?
Why is there such a test?
Does that mean one goes to heaven and the other goes to hell?
"Luo Luo, which one do you want to choose?" Yan Zihe glanced at him.
Jiang Luo blurted out, "I want to choose you..."
[Favorability +10]
Jiang Luo: ?
Both of them fell silent.
A faint blush spread across Yan Zihe's cheeks, making his fair skin appear even more radiant.
He still had that indifferent expression, as if he was ignoring everything.
However, a hint of emotion lingered in his eyes, gentle and clear.
Off-screen, Jiang Luo's brows were furrowed.
Actually, what she wanted to say was, "I want to choose your favorite color."
Based on her observations over the past few days, Yan Zihe would give some hints at crucial moments.
She wanted to leave the decision-making power to Yan Zihe.
Unexpectedly, instead of achieving anything serious, I gained 10 points of goodwill.
Uh... a beautiful misunderstanding?
"Luo Luo, don't be afraid, choose one," Yan Zihe said.
His voice was powerful.
Just like the training wheels when learning to ride a bike, as long as they're there, you don't have to worry about losing your balance.
Jiang Luo did not object and clicked the white button decisively.
White is a color as pure as Yan Zihe's.
If there really is a hidden danger behind the white color, then she'll accept it!
End of chapter.
Stepping away from the chapter, Jiang Luo suddenly realized that she shouldn't have acted so rashly; she should have searched for guides online first!
Ah, it was all because of those 10 points of favorability that disrupted my rhythm.
Checking the walkthrough now wouldn't help, so she just clicked on Chapter 7.
The scene changed, becoming a ring surrounded by four sides.
Is this... going to be boxing?
As Jiang Luo was looking around, suddenly, a huge balloon floated by.
"Smack."
The balloons burst, sending colorful ribbons flying everywhere.
At the same time, a piece of paper with a question written on it floated in mid-air.
How to write purple text with a blue pen?
What?
A riddle?
Just as Jiang Luo was about to answer, Yan Zihe spoke first: "According to the principle of three primary colors, purple is the sum of red and blue. As long as you add red pigment to a blue pen, you can write purple words."
wrong!
The character "紫" should be written with a blue pen.
It turns out that Yan Zihe also had questions he couldn't answer.
Jiang Luo said anxiously, "No..."
He had barely uttered a single word when a bright red checkmark appeared on the note.
Did you... answer correctly?
Yan Zihe asked, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Luo gave an awkward smile, "It's nothing, I just wanted to praise you for being so knowledgeable and well-read."
A torrent of flattery.
[Favorability +10]
Jiang Luo: "..."
Next, four more questions were thrown at him, making a total of five. Yan Zihe answered them all fluently, winning the victory from a perspective that Jiang Luo could never have imagined.
Successfully passed this chapter.
Jiang Luo was completely baffled.
In Chapter 7, she only serves as an audience member.
After each correct answer by Yan Zihe, offer him a few words of praise and you will gain some favor with him as you wish.
She didn't understand why the game would include a chapter of challenges that didn't require player participation.
But she was content as long as she gained favor.
They returned to the machine.
The white button disappeared, leaving only the black one.
It turns out that you have to choose from each one.
Jiang Luo: "..."
Click the black button.
It's the same boxing ring scene.
The same balloons.
It's the same question and answer format.
