Chapter 92: Late Update
——Director, you are worthy of being like this. All roads lead to monsters.
- Director, be honest, how many plans did you cut in order to integrate the monster-killing segment?
—I'm floored. This Prank City and the red-eyed elves are such fun! They could be developed into a food, drink, and lodging experience for all ages, but they chose to turn it into a monster-slaying experience. Absolutely ridiculous. The monsters must have killed the headmaster several times in their past lives to deserve this much hate!
——I don’t think so. From Jasmine Town to now, the ambition of Fantasy Park has obviously grown. It is aiming to create a new world and a new culture, so of course stories must be integrated into it!
Amidst the discussion among the audience, the six-member team, which was missing one person, heard the sound of bells ringing. Then, there was a flash of movement in the surrounding buildings, and many red-eyed elves holding thorn forks jumped out.
Cao Xiaoliang: "Oh my god, there are so many hidden around here, I didn't find them before!"
After the warning bell rang, these red-eyed elves flew towards the palace like sensitive little animals before an earthquake. They gathered together and drifted into the distance like a misty smoke.
At this moment, the familiar roar of monsters could be heard from the distant city gate. The tourists who had been selected were all over 5,000 in number and already possessed a certain level of combat power. They weren't afraid at first, until Ma Xiaoxiao shouted, "Can we fight monsters in this state?"
After the words fell, everyone suddenly realized what was happening and heard Duoduo say, "Follow the red-eyed elf."
Then she turned around and ran, and the others followed. Although everyone except Zhang Minmin started jumping around, their speed was not much slower than before. But what was incredible was that Duoduo, a primary school student, actually left all of them behind.
Cao Xiaoliang kept rolling forward, panting with exhaustion, and even shouted out the audience's thoughts, "Oh my god, is she cheating?"
At this moment, a loud bang was heard behind them. Everyone couldn't help but look back, and were horrified to find that the gate of the City of Prank had been knocked open by monsters, and huge monsters came in one after another.
One, two, three, four... With a quick glance, there were already more than a dozen coming in, and behind them there were dark monsters surging and squeezing in.
Even though they had fought monsters many times and no longer had any fear of them, it was the first time they saw so many monsters rushing towards them at the same time. The visual effect alone was enough to make everyone's scalp tingle.
Cao Xiaoliang murmured, "Oh my god, I feel like I'm back to playing Plants vs. Zombies. I felt the same sense of oppression when a horde of zombies rushed over."
Zhang Minmin pushed him and said, "Run! Do you want to be crushed by the monster? It's being broadcast live!"
Cao Xiaoliang snapped back to his senses. Yes, this was a live broadcast. He was the unrivaled god of war! How embarrassing it would be to be pinned down by a monster and unable to move!
Cao Xiaoliang rolled forward hurriedly, and the others also jumped forward desperately. Zhang Minmin flapped her wings and flew at the back. If she saw someone falling behind, she would push them hard.
At this time, experienced viewers were already analyzing the monsters that were coming this time.
——I counted them and found that these are monsters around level 10 in the monster atlas. They are not easy to fight!
- Holy crap, level 10! I've been grinding in Abandoned Park and Jasmine Town for weeks, and even with the items, I can only defeat level 5 monsters now.
——Those in front who can beat level 5 monsters are already big guys ranked above 10,000. I have bad luck and haven’t got any props so far. Every time I go there, I use the primitive wooden stick distributed by the park to fight monsters, and so far I can only beat level 2 monsters.
Ma Xiaoxiao and Cao Xiaoliang are over 4,000 on the Merit List, Zhang Hua is 3,000, the absent Liao Aiguo is 2,000, and Zhang Minmin is 1,500. Duoduo isn't sure, but seeing how fast she's running, and since she's the leader, she should be over 100. According to the latest Merit List records for this week, those ranked above 100 can single-handedly defeat monsters around level 10, while those ranked below 1,000 can't even break through a level 10 defense. The five of them besieging a level 10 monster was fine, but now Liao Aiguo has transformed into a mermaid and disappeared. And with so many level 10 monsters pouring in, it's impossible to fight them!
——A monster tide! I knew that Fantasy Park would use this trick sooner or later.
——This is too difficult! Even if this kind of monster wave were put into an online game, it would be a large-scale event. It would require a large number of players to form a team to complete it. Now there are only a few of us, how can we play it?
——Is there a problem with the planning of the Fantasy Park, and too many monsters with too strong strength were released, so it is difficult to deal with it now. So they will issue a mobilization order later to let the tourists on site of the Fantasy Park go in to provide support?
— Holy shit, that's actually possible! I was wondering how could such a huge city of pranks be experienced by only six people?
The audience in the live broadcast room became excited, and some tourists who were watching the live broadcast in the Fantasy Park became excited and immediately ran to ask the staff if they needed to go in for support.
Staff: ???
Back! Latest news: The event planning went smoothly, no one needs to go in for support. Frustrated.jpg.
——Ah, I thought I could play Mischief City today! How can I complete the mission without support? It must be difficult, right?
——Holy shit, look, Duoduo really is using cheats!
City of Mischief
How could a two-legged person outrun those bizarre monsters? Furthermore, there were differences in levels.
Zhang Minmin and the others were about to be caught up, but Duoduo, who was running in the front, suddenly turned around and said to Zhang Minmin: "Hold the teacup and fly." Then, under Zhang Minmin's stunned gaze, she grabbed the rolling mooncake with one hand, held the big carrot next to it with the other hand, and then jumped up and flew high. Her light figure seemed to ride on light, and in the blink of an eye she flew to the distant bell tower.
Audience: My expression at this moment was the same as Zhang Minmin’s, my eyes were about to pop out!
Zhang Minmin lagged behind by several steps, flapping her wings with all her might while holding the teacup, and finally approached the bell tower. She wasn't tall enough, and was nearly licked back by a monster with a long tongue. Fortunately, Duoduo reached out in time, grabbed her shoulders, and pulled her up.
Is my vision blurring? Zhang Minmin is at least 1.6 meters tall, isn't she? How could she be pulled up by Duoduo, who's a head shorter than her? Is her arm strength that amazing?
— Smoking jpg. Did you just notice? Just now, she was flying with Cao Xiaoliang and Ma Xiaoxiao, one in each hand! This red-eyed elf's transformation shouldn't have caused her weight to disappear, right?
There weren't many comments at this point, as the content on the live screen was already stimulating enough, and most viewers were too busy watching to engage in discussion.
Fortunately, the monsters that poured in this time did not have the ability to fly, and most of the buildings in the City of Prank were very tall, especially the clock tower. The monsters could not climb up the clock tower, but they scattered in the city, their evil eyes peeking everywhere, and the bloodthirsty desire in their eyes was terrifying.
Fortunately, the tourists present had fought monsters many times and were basically immune to the monsters' appearance and eyes. If it were a tourist who saw a monster for the first time, he would probably have been scared to death.
"What should we do now?" Zhang Minmin was still terrified. She had already realized that the level of these monsters was beyond their ability to defeat at their current level.
Duoduo bit open the candy wrapper, his white teeth crunching as he bit into the candy. Seeing them staring at him, he threw a piece to each of them to replenish their energy, then slowly said, "Fantasy Park won't assign us tasks we can't complete. We need help."
Ma Xiaoxiao: "But what kind of helpers can we have here? Could it be those red-eyed elves?"
The bell tower wasn't close to the palace, but it was high enough for them to see what was happening. From afar, they saw a large group of red-eyed elves flying out of the palace in an orderly formation. They raised their thorn forks and shouted in unison at the monsters, "Prank!"
A series of "puff, puff, puff" sounds rang out, and the monsters transformed one after another. Some turned into stones, some turned into piles of earth, some turned into huge tables, chairs and benches, and some turned into strange animals. Everyone laughed, but the next moment, those things twisted and returned to their original shape. Obviously, the skills of the red-eyed elves had no effect on the monsters. Seeing the monsters rushing over and roaring, the red-eyed elves screamed and flew back to the palace in a unified formation.
The walls of the palace were not very high, but there seemed to be a layer of air wall that the monsters could not climb over. They could only circle around outside and roar constantly.
"Sure enough, the red-eyed elf has no fighting power." Ma Xiaoxiao sighed.
At this time, Duoduo shared the two clues he had found before.
"Strange races are born with extraordinary powers, but we humans don't. Until one day, His Majesty Moria, the founder of the Thorns Empire, brought back a red-eyed elf, but its eyes were purple. We call them - Purple-Eyed Thorns. They are our companions and the people of the Thorns Empire. We rely on each other, and we are each other's spear and shield. From then on, we are fearless."
"We were born from infamy. We have red eyes that symbolize jealousy and malice. We make a living by playing tricks on others. We are the most notorious race on the continent... Until one day, we discovered that this was not a curse, but a blessing."
What does this mean?
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. Duoduo crushed the last piece of candy and searched his pockets again and again. After making sure there was no more candy left, he said, "It's obvious that humans have no power, and red-eyed elves have no fighting power either. But if humans and red-eyed elves combine, it will produce a qualitative change, giving them the power to fight against monsters and other races."
Combine?
Several people stared in surprise and asked in unison, "Are you going to marry the red-eyed elf?"
Duoduo: "...So this is the only thing you adults have in your minds?"
Audience: Isn’t it?
Just then, the announcement sounded again. [Ding! Congratulations, warriors, on discovering the final secret of the City of Mischief. When the Red-Eyed Elves sign a contract with a recognized human, they will transform into Purple-Eyed Thorns. Their skill, Mischief, will be transformed into Talent Steal. Their Thorn Prongs can steal extraordinary skills from enemies and share them with their human companions. This skill lasts for 12 hours. Warriors, strive to gain the Red-Eyed Elves' approval and together drive the monsters from the City of Mischief!]
—Talent stealing? Is that what I mean? So if I contract with a red-eyed elf, and it steals the skill from a fire-breathing monster, then I can breathe fire too?
—Wow, this is awesome! Is Fantasy Paradise going to open an arena mode? Where everyone can bind a Red-Eyed Pokémon and then use their innate skills to fight each other in the arena?
——I would like to ask, after the red-eyed elf turns into purple-eyed, can it steal the prank skill from its companions?
——Fuck, the previous one is a genius idea. I will contract a red-eyed elf and let it steal prank skills from other companions, and then play tricks on others in the square!
—I've long had issues with the monster-killing mode in Paradise. They always just charge in with weapons, completely lacking any technique. But now that I've developed skills, can I use them to blast monsters?
The audience was visibly excited.
Zhang Minmin and the others clearly realized the value of this news and excitedly said to Duoduo, "You didn't transform, but you just flew. Did you contract the Red-Eyed Elf? Did you steal your flying skills from the monster?"
Duoduo looked at them in surprise and shook his head, "No, flying is something I was born with."
Zhang Minmin and others: …
Little brat, keep bragging!
