exclamation mark
The new applicant only said one sentence in his application: Have you ever dreamed of jellyfish?
Shang Jingyan's ID on the anonymous forum is just a period, so low-key that she cannot be recognized at all.
Most of the people in the forum were ordinary passers-by who were attracted by the unheard-of concept of "supernatural forum" and joined the discussion excitedly.
In just a few days, there were dozens of groups under the forum column. Shang Jingyan would lurk in the large group to observe, and when he saw a suspected target, he would add him as a friend individually to make a judgment.
This screening method is a bit slow, but at least it is accurate. Besides, Shang Jingyan has not yet figured out what to do after gathering a certain number of people, and all the plans are still in their infancy.
It's a pity that she hasn't had any new members join the small group she prepared yet. There are only a few people in the group, and she is the only group owner.
Fortunately, God helps those who work hard, and now there is a result, isn’t it?
And he added her actively.
The applicant's ID is [! ], which is just as casual and low-key.
Shang Jingyan invited him and said, "That's right. What kind of jellyfish did you dream of?"
This is the second type of screening, simple but effective.
If the other party's description matches, then it goes without saying that it must be true.
Shang Jingyan met an online friend yesterday, who thought she was joking and excitedly made up a lot of stories, which was really embarrassing.
But today, the person opposite her became quiet after she asked. Pei Yi came out of the kitchen with a tray of food. "The main course is here."
The steaming blue crabs were served on the table, each one as big as two adult palms. Pei Yi had already removed the shell, revealing the sweet and plump crab meat, with the pink and orange crab roe in the center overflowing, making one's mouth water.
Shang Jingyan put down his laptop and rubbed his hands expectantly: "What a big crab! It's not easy to raise such a big blue crab in this season."
There are so many interstellar planets that you can have any climate you want at any time. Shang Jingyan has almost lost the concept of the four seasons. But according to the official calendar of the alliance, it is already late autumn and winter is about to begin.
V059 The climate in the northern hemisphere is almost the same as the official calendar of the Alliance - after all, the official calendar was originally set there - and blue crabs are not yet in season.
She and Pei Yi dined in a small private room on the top floor, where the environment was quiet. The teahouse was located in the sky garden, and through the window one could see white clouds drifting by, and a small flower bed held up by a flying saucer occasionally passing over the windowsill.
After eating, Shang Jingyan can go out directly from the top floor without having to pass through the first floor and be watched by fans.
"I just went downstairs to get something, and one of your fans asked me if the prototype of the rabbit NPC was me." Pei Yi propped up his chin and watched Shang Jingyan eat crabs, helpless, "I didn't expect to become famous in this way."
He paused for a second and said, "But this feeling is not unpleasant."
I wanted to be a dream builder since I was a child but I couldn't become one. Now that my externalizing disorder has been cured, I no longer have that passion. It's not bad to be able to exist in a world created by a dream builder in another way...
Shang Jingyan understood what he was thinking and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, with your words, I won't kill this NPC."
Pei Yi: “…”
So you wanted to kill him, didn't you?
The two of them finished their lunch while joking around. Shang Jingyan raised his wrist and saw that his exclamation point classmate had finally replied to his message.
He simply said the two words "like this" and then sent a 3D painting.
In the picture, a huge translucent jellyfish is quietly suspended in the darkness, its body reflecting colorful halos.
Shang Jingyan was a little surprised. She had been prepared that other people might not be able to remember the details of the jellyfish accurately, but she didn't expect that the first person she met would give her a surprise.
The other party obviously has experience in building dreams, so he can make such a picture on Starnet.
But after thinking about it, Shang Jingyan didn't think it was strange.
According to her speculation, people with higher spiritual power should be more likely to sense the existence of jellyfish monsters. And these people with such talents are most likely to choose industries related to dream building.
The person on the other side might be a colleague, using a secondary account just like her.
[I dreamed the same thing.] Shang Jingyan said, [Then do you know what this is? I have a guess, do you want to listen to it?]
Shang Jingyan felt that ordinary people would not be able to guess that "jellyfish monsters feed on human emotions and do not like fear", so she might have to do some popular science.
[Busy. I'll come back later.]
Shang Jingyan: “…”
This sister or brother is really not in a hurry.
In just a few sentences, she was able to roughly outline some of the other person's characteristics: taciturn and busy in reality.
Shang Jingyan tapped his fingers boredly and returned to another chat interface.
You Yao sent her countless messages in the morning, the last few sentences were:
[Share the link to [Supernatural Space]. This forum is quite interesting. I have been browsing it for several hours. Oh my god, it is addictive! ]
[Sharing the main post link [Tell me about the strange things I encountered in this affordable residential building...], my god, the post author's words are so scary, he has a talent for writing. [terrified]]
[Share the main post link [Don't do these things! ...], Oh, is it really that scary to ask the pen fairy? But we are now in the multi-galaxy era, if the pen fairy came to the door one by one, it would be very busy. 】
【Share the main post link...】
The content of Shang Jingyan's conversation with You Yao has now degenerated into a meaningless state, with the chat box filled with jokes shared between each other and You Yao's nonsense.
[Supernatural Space] is the forum she founded. It has only been a few days and yet You Yao, who is far away in the Exiled Galaxy, has already seen it. It seems that the enthusiasm of the interstellar people for the supernatural is amazing.
Shang Jingyan felt quite familiar with the titles of these posts, as if he had returned to the supernatural forum of his previous life. However, the background of the era of StarCraft meant that no one would take these seriously, and everyone just read them as forum novels.
She was a little curious about how many interstellar supernatural stories would be born in this forum, such as cyber electronic ghosts or interstellar travel ghosts.
Shang Jingyan read the first one and replied: [Not bad, I saved it. Thank you for helping me find an excellent dream builder seed. ]
The original poster is actually Exclamation Mark. There are many experts among the people. He has done a good job in creating a terrifying atmosphere. If what he said in the original poster is true, and he is still a student who has not graduated, you can consider offering him a job.
You Yao replied immediately and was shocked: [Your only feeling after reading this is poaching, right? Workaholic! ]
Shang Jingyan ignored him.
She didn't know about the real group yet, or she already knew but acquiesced.
The Real Object Group doesn't seem to know what to do with her now. Even You Yao hasn't contacted her in the name of the organization for a long time. She became famous and successful too quickly in the Real Object Group, so it's hard to treat her as an ordinary member. But they are still worried about her and have been reluctant to let her enter the core.
Shang Jingyan didn't care about it. She had already got Shang Song's notebook, so it wasn't impossible for her to go solo now.
The exclamation mark student still did not reply, and even went offline. Shang Jingyan looked at the other party's IP, which was displayed in the main galaxy "Purple Mist".
Purple Mist, a famous tourist planet.
Shang Jingyan touched her chin. She had never traveled since she came to the main galaxy and she wanted to go.
Shang Jingyan is a very proactive person. He does what he says and booked a ticket for the Star Track Train to Ziwuli one day later.
The Purple Haze Star is as its name suggests. When viewed from space, it appears to be a mixture of light purple and dark blue-purple, as if covered by a layer of misty veil. Overall, it looks like a blueberry jam candy ball.
This is the color created by a special kind of fern on the planet. They grow densely into forests, covering most of the planet. There are even close relatives of the same genus in the ocean, making the water appear blue-purple under the light.
Shang Jingyan took a careful look and found that there were many cultural and creative products related to her in the store at the transit station.
The most popular and front-row selling item is the "Shanhai Tuben" series blind box. She drew one on a whim and got the most common mud monster.
Shang Jingyan: “…”
hateful!
Just then, she heard a familiar voice say to the clerk, "Give me the whole package."
"Sister Cui?" Shang Jingyan turned around and said in surprise, "What a coincidence!"
"Ouch? Little...Little Goose!"
Cui Yunting was also surprised. Thinking that this was a fan event, he quickly lowered his voice to avoid being watched. "What a coincidence, I just got here too."
Shang Jingyan glanced at her full shopping bags and asked curiously, "Is Sister Cui here for tourism?"
"Isn't this for catching monsters?"
Sister Cui lifted the cigarette in her mouth and proudly showed her the light screen. "Here, you see, I have not collected the special species except the ones in my hometown. After finishing the main galaxy, my next stop is the Gamma galaxy."
Shang Jingyan: “…”
The first person she knew who actually planned to travel around the stars to catch monsters appeared!
The top row of rare cards on Cui's screen was so bright that even the clerk looked at them with envy. The robot helped her open the blind box, and finally it opened three roses of misfortune, two moon mermaids, and four wandering hunters.
Shang Jingyan: For a moment I didn’t know whether it was the power of money or the power of Europe.
"That's great! This must mean that I'll be able to draw the Rose of Doom soon." Sister Cui was happy and bought a bunch of dolls generously. She left the store with Shang Jingyan.
They booked the same hotel, also a luxurious presidential suite, which was perfectly located.
However, Sister Cui spent her own money, while Shang Jingyan was sponsored for free by Su’s Culture and Tourism.
"When you approached me for investment a year ago, I couldn't have imagined that you would be so successful." Sister Cui sighed, "At that time, I thought my money was doomed to go down the drain."
Unexpectedly, in the end Shang Jingyan brought her unprecedented multiple excess returns.
Near the hotel estate, you can see the huge arch formed by wisteria from afar.
It was already late at night in the purple mist when we arrived at the hotel. A silvery-white butterfly landed on the shoulders of the two of us, swaying quietly in the night. This is also a unique species on the planet in the purple mist, and it is said to bring good luck to tourists.
Sister Cui ruined the atmosphere by saying, "Tsk, it really looks like a will-o'-the-wisp."
The waiter next to him said, "Indeed, many tourists have been calling it the Ghost Fire Butterfly recently... after all, horror style is very popular."
Shang Jingyan coughed dryly, a little apologetic, but not much.
The tourist attractions were closed at this time, so they couldn't go out to play. But the two of them hadn't adjusted to the time difference yet, and they were not sleepy at all, so they just stayed in Shang Jingyan's suite to chat and talk.
Sister Cui sat cross-legged and ate sunflower seeds for a while. Suddenly, as if remembering something, she looked at her laptop and clapped her hands: "Oh, I almost forgot, today is Friday! In a few minutes, it will be the final episode of "Oil Painting Woman".
From the moment Lan Qing entered the last red painting, the plot entered a stage of sustained high energy.
She was horrified to find that she could not control her body and had turned into "Malinfia". She could only watch herself mechanically walk towards the bed.
Sister Cui wants to save up the ending to watch together. From the occasional spoilers, she already knows that the plot is about to solve the mystery of Malefia's life experience.
Cui Yunting turned on the projection screen with great interest. The theme song was playing at that moment, and the huge screen was particularly atmospheric.
“Come to think of it, I haven’t tried watching her work with the dream builder herself, so I wonder if the experience would be different.”
As she finished her words, the opening theme song ended. A red color like dried blood filled the view, dyeing the entire room red.
