Chapter 34 Reality



"My personal skills." Bai Liu smiled at him weakly, "You are very curious, right? Do you need me to show you my personal skills again? My stamina is now zero. Give me a bottle of stamina recovery potion and I will show you again."

"Of course I won't take your stamina recovery potion for free." Bai Liu used the same old trick again, took out another one-point coin, and smiled, "How about I give it to you in exchange for one point?"

Mu Sicheng: "..."

Haha, I'd trade with you!

One minute later.

[System reminder: The transaction is established, Wanderer Bai Liu obtains a bottle of stamina recovery potion]

[System reminder: Player Mu Sicheng gives player Bai Liu a bottle of stamina restorer, worth 180 points, which can restore 90 stamina points to the player]

Mu Sicheng was going crazy. He wanted to ride on Bai Liu's back and strangle him to death while he was lazily drinking the recovery potion. He fiercely questioned Bai Liu: "How did you do it? Stealing and robbery are prohibited here! Only players are allowed to trade and give items to each other! You can't steal anything from my game warehouse!"

Still in front of him! Twice! Scored twice!

He, Mu Sicheng, has always been the only one who steals other people's things, and this is the first time someone has stolen something from him!

"Personal skills." Bai Liu raised his head and drank the energy recovery potion in one breath. When he felt his hands and feet were strong, Bai Liu glanced at Mu Sicheng with a smile, "If you still need me to show you something, I can..."

"No, thanks." Mu Sicheng interrupted Bai Liu expressionlessly. He would be a fool if he was fooled by this guy again.

"Ah, the residence fee I paid yesterday is about to expire. I have to quit the game first." Wang Shun said hello to Bai Liu and prepared to quit the game. He reminded Bai Liu, "Bai Liu, you need to pay the residence fee to the system every day to stay in this game hall. The residence fee for each level of players is different. You need to pay 100 points every day at this level."

"The fees I paid are about to expire, so I'll log off first. See you next time." Wang Shun said goodbye to Bai Liu and Mu Sicheng politely.

"Tsk, I'm about to leave too." Mu Sicheng glanced at his watch and glanced at Bai Liu. "I have things to do in the real world. I'll come see you next time, Bai Liu."

"I'll come play games with you next time." Mu Sicheng suddenly showed a wicked smile, "I will get back everything you tricked away from me today, Bai Liu."

After saying this, the two men disappeared in the game hall. Bai Liu was led by Wang Shun once and returned to the previous exit of the [Newcomer Area] along the original route. Mu Ke, who was trembling all over, huddled in the corner of the exit, trembling with tears all over his face.

This young man actually looks quite good, with a very delicate Japanese-style beautiful boy appearance. This kind of weak look with red eyes and tearful eyelashes will definitely make a lot of girls feel distressed and shout "Mom, I love you" when they see him.

But Bai Liu is a male game designer who only loves money. He gives all his limited maternal love to the terrifying bosses and money he designed. He lacks basic empathy for human appearance, and to impress him, one needs beauty at least on the level of the Siren King.

Bai Liu squatted down, and Mu Ke shrank back cautiously. The thorns on his body stood up, tears were in his eyes, and his expression was full of savagery: "Get out!"

"First time, no, second time meeting you, Young Master Mu." Mu Ke was completely stunned as Bai Liu opened his mouth. Mu Ke looked up at Bai Liu who was squatting down in a daze, tears from his eyelashes dripping onto the ground. He hiccuped and did not tell Bai Liu to get out. He just stared at Bai Liu blankly.

Mu Ke recognized this voice, the voice that saved his life when he was about to die, the voice to whom he sold his soul, the demon who easily burned to death the monsters he could never get rid of with only 200 points, and who claimed to be a very poor wanderer.

Bai Liu looked down at Mu Ke calmly: "This is the second time you've seen me, but it seems like you don't remember. It doesn't matter, after all, we are in a completely new relationship now."

"Well, Mu Ke, nice to meet you. I am the owner of your soul debt, my name is Bai Liu." Bai Liu stretched out her hand to Mu Ke.

After a long, long time, Mu Ke burst into tears as if he had been suppressed to the extreme. He suddenly rushed to Bai Liu and hugged him tightly. The tears that had been held back for a long time burst out again. Mu Ke cried breathlessly as if he was a child who had finally seen his parents:

"Why did you come just now!!!"

At that moment, Mu Ke thought that the person he was hugging was a devil that he had to rely on when he was desperate, but it was a long time later that Mu Ke realized that the person he was hugging was actually a god disguised as a devil.

He devoted his faith and soul to Bai Liu, and Bai Liu gave him a clean heart and a new life.

Bai Liu took the young master Mu Ke out of the game at Bai Liu's home.

It was almost midnight when he logged out. The young master's eyes were like springs. He cried all night after he came out and cried until he passed out. He still held on to Bai Liu's shirt sleeves tightly and refused to let go. When Bai Liu told him to go home, the young master's crying could blow the roof off, and he refused to go back no matter what. He said that he had sold his soul to Bai Liu, but Bai Liu actually chased him away!

Quite convincing.

Bai Liu felt that it was because of the chick effect and the suspension bridge effect that the young master developed a strong sense of security towards Bai Liu, the devil who was supposed to play the role of the villain. If Mu Ke could not wake up from his fear in the short term, he would not leave Bai Liu's home easily.

But Bai Liu didn't want to leave Mu Ke in his house.

The reason is very simple, this little master is too annoying when he cries.

So five minutes after Mu Ke fell asleep, Bai Liu called his top boss and asked him to come and pick up the big boss's son, Mu Ke, who was currently living in his house and refused to leave.

When Bai Liu's boss received Bai Liu's call, he was so shocked that he spilled coffee on his computer keyboard.

He has never liked his subordinate Bai Liu, mainly because Bai Liu has too many ideas of his own when making games. Every time he is asked to add some elements that follow the market trend, Bai Liu will directly say that the game design is already full, that adding more plots will cause bugs, and that nothing can be added.

In fact, it’s not a big deal if he can’t get the extra salary, and it’s not necessary to get the extra salary, but the boss just doesn’t like Bai Liu’s disobedient attitude. As a worker for him, he just wants Bai Liu to do whatever he wants. It’s not that he makes so many excuses, making him seem so noble.

After Mu Ke took over Bai Liu's shift and did almost nothing, the boss had to clean up the mess for this young master and took over Bai Liu's job. Only then did he realize that Bai Liu was not disobedient before, nor was he making excuses. Bai Liu was just telling the truth.

Now that it is his turn to do Bai Liu's job, the person who finds fault has become Mu Ke. Mu Ke also has three or four ideas a day, which tortures his boss so much that he complains all the time. Sometimes when he says that there is nothing more to add or nothing can be changed, Mu Ke will sneer and say, "If you don't listen to my advice, I can replace you with someone who will listen to my advice."

Now the position of the boss is also in jeopardy. The young master finally went out to play somewhere and disappeared for a day, but unexpectedly he showed up in Bai Liu's house!

The boss couldn't help but think about what the relationship between Bai Liu and the young master was... But thinking too much was useless. He was nominally Mu Ke's boss, but in reality he was Mu Ke's nanny, so he had to go pick him up.

When the boss arrived at Bai Liu's house, Mu Ke was still sleeping. The boss felt a little guilty and embarrassed when he saw Bai Liu, but Bai Liu didn't feel anything. He exchanged his points for 100,000 yuan before leaving. The points in this game are quite valuable. The exchange rate with RMB is one thousand to one. One hundred points can be exchanged for 100,000.

With money in hand, Bai Liu is calm and composed when he sees anyone. Even when he sees his boss who knows nothing but always likes to boss things around, Bai Liu politely opens the door and lets him in, saying, "Mu Ke is still sleeping. He cried all night last night and just fell asleep. Don't wake him up."

Bai Liu's original intention was not to wake Mu Ke up and continue crying until his head hurt, but Mu Ke grabbed Bai Liu's shirt (Bai Liu took off the shirt and gave it to Mu Ke) and curled up on the bed feeling insecure, with red eyes and nose, and some suspicious bruises on his body (the sequelae of the game). Coupled with Bai Liu's words just now - the boss woodenly accepted the amount of information that came at him, and said "Oh" stiffly.

So this is the relationship between Bai Liu and Mu Ke! Why didn't Bai Liu tell him earlier? He would not dare to fire anyone but Bai Liu!

"Well, otherwise, let Mu Ke continue to sleep here with you, Bai Liu." The boss actually didn't dare to wake up Mu Ke. The young man was particularly irritable when he woke up. He would get angry if he was woken up from his nap, not to mention being woken up after being tormented like this all night.

And the boss also found it very strange. Bai Liu tortured the young master in bed like this, and then asked him to pick him up. Why does it feel like a bit of a scumbag...

Bai Liu refused of course: "No, take him away, his crying is annoying me."

boss:"!!!!"

What a scumbag! How could Bai Liu say such a scumbag statement that is so abhorrent to both humans and gods?

Mu Ke was awakened by the sound of the two people talking. His eyelashes trembled twice, but he was not awake yet. He subconsciously hugged the shirt in his arms tightly and murmured softly: "Bai Liu..."

The boss's expression after seeing this scene was indescribable. He looked at Bai Liu with a reproachful look, but Bai Liu seemed to feel nothing. When he was working, this boss would always look at him with this kind of reproachful look of "you did something wrong" every time Bai Liu rejected his suggestions. Bai Liu was used to it.

He called out calmly, "Mu Ke, get up, someone is here to pick you up."

Mu Ke woke up slowly. When he saw his boss beside the bed, he realized that Bai Liu had called someone to pick him up.

Mu Ke's reaction was very violent. He subconsciously wanted to grab Bai Liu's hand and angrily rebuked his boss, his back arched and his teeth bared, like a cat that was taken to a place it didn't like: "Go away! I'm not going back, I'm staying here!"

"This is my place." Bai Liu's attitude was still indifferent. He dodged Mu Ke's attempt to grab his hand. "And I don't allow you to stay here, Mu Ke, go back."

Mu Ke's body froze. He turned his head to look at Bai Liu, trying to grab Bai Liu's hand but missed. Mu Ke's eyes began to turn red again, and his lips moved: "Bai Liu, I will be very good, don't chase me away..."

"I am ordering you based on our relationship, Mu Ke." Bai Liu said calmly, "You have no right to refuse."

Bai Liu could actually understand why Mu Ke didn't want to leave. This man had a very strong desire to survive, and Bai Liu saved him under that situation, which made Mu Ke subconsciously equate "staying by Bai Liu's side" with "being able to survive." It would be more accurate to say that Mu Ke is afraid of the environment "without Bai Liu's protection" rather than being dependent on Bai Liu.

Mu Ke's tears rolled down. He bit his lower lip and looked at Bai Liu for a long time. Finally, he got out of bed obediently. He stood behind his boss with a pale face and trembling body. Mu Ke's fear was almost written on his face.

Bai Liu looked at Mu Ke like this and felt that he needed to provide some guidance to this player whose soul he possessed, just like the system did to the players.

"Mu Ke, if you remain so fragile and cannot live without me and have more valuable things for me," Bai Liu said softly, "I will abandon you soon, understand? Because I can still have many people like you, but you only have me."

"I, I understand." Mu Ke's lips turned pale as he responded softly. He lowered his head and raised his hand to wipe his eyes, trying to control his crying. "I will try my best to be useful to you."

The boss who had watched the whole thing had a look of astonishment on his face, as if he had just watched a scene of a ruthless man trampling on a bunch of scumbag tops and doing pua to a scumbag bottom. His face was frozen because of the shock, and he looked at Bai Liu with a little fear.

Bai Liu actually dared to speak to the young master Mu Ke like this! Who is he?

Mu Ke followed his boss who was in a daze. When they were out of the door, his boss couldn't help asking, "Mr. Mu, what is your relationship with Bai Liu?"

"What's the relationship?" Mu Ke's eyes were blank, and he seemed to be talking to himself, "I belong to him, he owns my soul, and he is my master."

boss:"……"

What on earth are you playing?

I didn't expect that Bai Liu, who looks like a handsome guy, is actually a SM expert. He looks like a top-level S. He even trained Mu Ke, a proud young master, to be like a good little cat...

The boss shuddered, and he led Mu Ke away, trembling and wanting to cry but without tears.

——I feel like I’ve resigned as a very important person.

——————

After Mu Ke left, Bai Liu turned on the top-of-the-line Alienware computer that Mu Ke had compensated him with, and began to search for information related to "Siren Town".

After searching forward, reverse, and searching for names like Jelf Andre without getting any matching information, Bai Liu rubbed his stiff neck, thinking - it seems that the game is indeed not a real product, but if it is a virtual product -

Bai Liu looked deeply as he used his index finger to pull out a string from his neck. Hanging on the string was a one-dollar coin with a hole in the middle. It was his manager in the game. Bai Liu turned the coin over a few times on the back of his hand as if playing with it, but the coin did not respond at all and no game panel popped up. He looked thoughtful.

——If the game is a complete virtual product, how did this thing come into reality with him?

Moreover, Bai Liu fiddled with the coin, and the coin was separated from a scale as thin as a cicada's wing. A translucent fish scale with a texture like ice was passed through a string and hung on Bai Liu's neck, sticking to the coin and emitting a faint and colorful light.

Bai Liu realized after he came out that there was suddenly an extra scale on his neck. If he guessed correctly, this was the item he got, [Siren's Reverse Scale]. He just didn't know why it came out of the game with him without him taking it out.

But considering the system's suggestion for this item - [The fish scales represent the Siren King's response to your love, and players are expected to wear them for a long time], Bai Liu wore it for a night and found nothing unusual, so he just left it alone.

But this is also what Bai Liu is thinking about. It is unreasonable to virtualize the game into something similar to the "Palace of Thought" that is similar to the structure of human consciousness, because there are real things such as coins and scales, that is, the "game" should be an objective and real existence.

But if something exists, there must be signs. However, Bai Liu did not find any signs of the existence of this game on the Internet, which is very strange.

For example, besides Bai Liu, there must be other players who have entered this game. After all, there will be a hundred players logged in at a time. As long as one or two survive and post something related to this game, such as a Weibo post or a circle of friends, Bai Liu will be able to find it in this era of big data where data flows extremely fast. However, Bai Liu did not find anything similar to the concept of this game.

Something that existed must have traces... Bai Liu pondered, the reason why there were no traces -

Unless this trace is erased.

Bai Liu narrowed his eyes, opened his Weibo, posted a piece of detailed information about "Siren Town" and the game, and clicked send. As a result, he watched with his own eyes the Weibo he sent fade away and then disappear.
