Chapter 114 Safe House
Jiang Huaique felt that there was something unusual between his teammate and a mysterious person, but he had no evidence.
After all, if it was just an ordinary partnership, how could the other party tell him the probability of the blind box machine? And with Xu Zhiyan's temper, knowing that the first person to draw the lottery would get an S-level weapon, he didn't rush up to make a fortune?
It seems abnormal no matter how you look at it.
He glanced at Xu Zhiyan who was frantically denying it, and asked cautiously.
"Is there something hidden about anonymity that makes you feel embarrassed?"
Apart from this reason, he couldn't think of anything else that would make Xu Zhiyan hide it.
Jiang Huaique thought about the players at the top of the leaderboard, wondering who was most likely to be anonymous.
Xu Zhiyan was frightened at first by the looks from his teammates.
After hearing the question, he was full of question marks and was unable to react for a while.
"Huh? You can't show it?"
What's not to like? Anonymous?
"It's okay, we are all family. I saw your previous interaction with Anonymous in the live broadcast room." Jiang Huaique said meaningfully.
Xu Zhiyan was stunned for a long time before he realized that the other party had actually directly acknowledged his relationship with Anonymous.
As for that interaction in the live broadcast room... damn, that’s not the case at all.
Thinking of the ghost in the safe house who was aloof, taciturn, and indifferent to everything, he had to sit up straight and make a few remarks for Party A.
"Don't talk nonsense. Although my Party A is a bit useless at times, it is still very strong overall."
Everything is good except not working.
He is handsome, has money, property and great power.
"The live broadcast interaction you mentioned was posted by me using his phone. I directed and acted it all by myself. It was a double act, you know?"
He felt that ghosts and gods would not cooperate with him in saying such nonsense.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Huaique's expression became even weirder after hearing this.
"You took his phone?"
You should know that players’ mobile phones can directly connect to the live broadcast room, and in the real world, players also use mobile phones to trade points.
Unless they are very close and trusted, almost no one would give their cell phone to someone else.
...Moreover, the relationship between the two in the real world sounds very close. I wonder if they live together.
In Jiang Huai's eyes, these excuses sounded like solid evidence.
But seeing Xu Zhiyan's expression of "absolutely impossible", he did not continue to ask.
Never mind, as long as my teammates are happy.
However, he still needs to remind people when necessary.
"Xu Baopi, I know you're not a fool, but you should be more careful. How can someone who has accumulated a large amount of assets in this kind of game and lured you into taking the bait be a good person?"
Anyone who can climb to the top of the standings, whether male or female, is definitely a tough character.
Jiang Huaique had suffered losses before, so even though he knew that interfering in his teammates' love lives might sound like nagging, he still couldn't help but emphasize it.
Xu Zhiyan laughed after hearing this and waved his hands.
"A wise man does not fall in love. Do you think I am hooked?"
Thinking of the silly, innocent big vase waiting for him at home, he said nonchalantly: "Anonymous is different. He is fine except that he usually burns a lot of money."
And this problem of burning money should be improved after the last conversation.
The two of them chatted for a few more sentences, and Jiang Huaique was sure that Xu Zhiyan was mentally normal and had not changed his temperament because of the anonymous intervention. Although he was still a little worried, he didn't say anything else.
Seeing Xu Zhiyan looked at the time and said he wanted to go back first, Jiang Huaique stopped him.
"I haven't seen Jin Sheng for so long, why don't you call him to join you?"
He was a little puzzled. The three of them clearly had a group chat, and they usually talked openly among themselves. These things, including the blind box machine, did not need to be hidden from Jinsheng.
When Xu Zhiyan heard Jin Sheng's name, he suddenly trembled all over.
The destiny dog is different from other props. It can be brought into the real world, but its skills will be locked to avoid any negative effects.
I don’t know why, but Xiaoyi likes him very much.
After coming out of the Xu Zhiyan copy, I occasionally chatted with Jin Sheng and Jiang Huaique, and from time to time I would receive a video call from Jin Sheng, saying that Xiaoyi missed him and wanted to touch him.
"Xiaoyi...Xiaoyi has grown a lot recently, and it is said that his growth rate has also increased a lot."
Although he was very reluctant to touch the dog's head, he couldn't be too disappointed with the dog since it had made many contributions in the copy.
But after he sent a large number of canned dog food and dog snacks at his own expense, Xiaoyi liked him more and more. Almost every day, he would ask Jinsheng to make a video call to show his dog's hair, which was even more shiny and silky...
Things started to spiral out of control.
For this reason, Xu Zhiyan secretly asked Jin Sheng why Xiaoyi liked him so much? This is not scientific!
The answer is shocking.
Jin Sheng said that Xiaoyi can melt the hearts of onlookers almost every time he appears because of his cute appearance. Especially in the real world, this cute and intelligent dog will win the hearts of a large number of humans wherever he goes.
Xiaoyi had never seen a human being like Xu Zhiyan who would refuse to let him be petted.
What the puppy wants, he must get!
A puppy with a strange desire to win and a human who is afraid of dogs maintain a strange relationship.
Seeing Jiang Huaique looked confused, Xu Zhiyan sighed.
"It's all tears if I say too much, I'll talk about it later."
The two parted in the premium lounge area.
Before returning to his old house in Yunshan, Xu Zhiyan took a look at the blind box machine.
Sure enough, after it was revealed that the blind box machine could draw S-level items, more players were willing to try it.
He sat on the nearby steps and waited for half an hour, then saw more than a dozen players drawing from the blind box machine. Judging from the time and the number, there were about forty or fifty people drawing, and there were constant disputes around.
"Damn it, this must be a scam! My five hundred thousand points!" A well-dressed red-haired player looked at the useless props and spat to the side.
"That profiteer Xu Baiwan must be a bastard!"
He had drawn five S-level items in a row, and all of them were garbage. He was so angry that he couldn't bear it anymore.
Someone nearby laughed at him.
"You blame others for your bad luck. Do you also do this when you place bets in the live broadcast room?"
"Yes, yes, there was someone in front of you who got a good item!"
"If you don't have the guts, don't play the blind box. Those double S-level props are all worth millions. If it's really that easy, I'll borrow money to draw them."
"Although Xu Baiwan has no conscience, I don't think he is dragging his feet this time."
"Yes! Not only S-level items, but also A-level items and other potions and so on. The first person to draw got something awesome!"
"Haha, I can't afford to play..."
Maybe players have become accustomed to being cheated by the main system, so in comparison, they think the probability of this blind box machine is not bad.
Seeing other onlookers agreeing with him, the red-haired player felt embarrassed and ran away angrily.
After listening for a long time, Xu Zhiyan realized that the effect was better than he thought. The total number of people participating in the lottery seemed to be twice as much as he had imagined, and other S-level props had already been drawn.
After a quick calculation, he concluded that this would at least convert the accumulated props into seven or eight million points.
If the useless items and S-level items that were taken away were exchanged for points, the points earned would be exactly half.
"If you want to make money, you still need capital."
After sighing, Xu Zhiyan stopped waiting and decisively chose to log out.
After a brief dizziness, Xu Zhiyan stood in front of the lobby door of his logout anchor point - Yunshan Old House.
As soon as his feet touched the ground, he noticed something unusual.
Why is it so hot when I come back after being out for a day?
There was no sign of the monsters in the hall, only the ghost was sitting alone in front of the fireplace.
Xu Zhiyan took a few steps and looked around the hall. He didn't find any electric heaters or anything like that. There was no difference here from before he left, except that the temperature had increased a lot.
"Bai Jin, why is it so hot here?"
Xu Zhiyan took off his coat and threw it away. Suddenly, a hand stretched out from the gap in the floor, caught the clothes steadily, and hung them silently on the hanger in the corner.
What answered him was the deep voice of a ghost.
"Is it too hot? I accidentally found a book that says there's a fire formation that can raise the temperature."
He said it lightly, as if he had really found it by accident.
Qu Ji, who had just dealt with the dead air conditioner and was about to come back to report, heard this explanation. He stopped short of stepping into the hall, turned around and went back outside.
Forget it, let’s go through the window.
Otherwise, it is afraid that it will not be able to help but tell the truth.
An hour ago, the ghost god personally used his power to open a magic-related high-level copy channel. Because this copy has not yet been put into use, it is only open for a few minutes.
The monsters in the safe house were sent in to rob the magic tower that the main system had painstakingly built, and for this the ghosts and gods paid a large amount of their own energy to the main system.
But the good thing is that in addition to this book of formations that records fire magic, everyone also got some other energy stones, which can be sold directly in exchange for points and then exchanged for cash.
Qu Ji finally balanced the account before Xu Zhiyan came back, and even had some money left over, which instantly doubled the balance in Xu Zhiyan's small treasury.
Although it is definitely a loss overall, but seeing the ghost god's righteous look now, it seems that it is not too bad? Well, if Brother Xu knew about it, he would definitely be very angry!
As for learning the formation...
Should I say that he is indeed a ghost? He learned something new immediately after flipping through the book.
Having solved the heating problem of the safe house and paid off the extra bills that had accidentally been incurred, Guishen sat on his shabby sofa in a very good mood.
Xu Zhiyan was very surprised after hearing this.
"Magic circle? So awesome? Can you teach me?"
If he had learned it, would he still have to go through so much trouble to buy props everywhere?
The ghost who had not waited for praise heard this question and hesitated for a while before explaining: "Power is conserved. The human body is too fragile. Your body cannot withstand this violent power now."
Xu Zhiyan found the blind spot.
"So this formation is also consuming?"
"Yes, but the energy consumed by the monster can be replenished."
The ghost nodded.
Seeing his beloved's curiosity, He stood up and led him to the shadow at the very edge of the room.
A bloody mark two fingers wide appeared on the ground.
Xu Zhiyan squatted on the ground and touched the blood line.
The next second, the blood line fluctuated slightly, and some facial features appeared suddenly on it in a disorderly manner, with the mouth opening and closing, greeting him.
"Hi~ Mr. Xu, it's me! Honghong!"
“…”
Xu Zhiyan stood there in a daze.
[Name: Blood Creature (Red)]
[Level: A (Open ductility, upgradeable)]
【Threat: S】
[Note: The safe house reserves creatures, and the owner of the safe house needs to fill in the notes. ]
Honghong is a veteran monster in the safe house, a blood creature whose body is made of blood.
When Liuliu got a name, it was the first one to be dissatisfied, and it was said that it later fought with Liuliu in the monster room.
After Xu Zhiyan learned about this, he hurriedly gave it a name.
However, he was used to seeing blood creatures condensed into various shapes in the past, so he was still a little shocked when he suddenly saw the other party being painted on the ground as paint and used as the medium for the formation.
"You...why are you here?"
Xu Zhiyan asked stutteringly.
Honghong glanced at the ghost and explained with tears in her eyes.
"As a monster, you always have to try new things." Fortunately, Qu Ji said that he would give it a subsidy on a daily basis.
“…”
Xu Zhiyan stood in awe.
He really didn't expect that the monsters in the safe house were so aware.
But no matter what, the increased temperature in the safe house is a good thing for him.
Although staying in a hotel in Qukhe is not bad, it is very troublesome for him to run around all day. It is more convenient for him to stay in a safe house.
After learning that the formation drawn by blood creatures could provide warmth, Xu Zhiyan couldn't help but praise the ghosts and gods.
"This is much better than installing an air conditioner, and it doesn't consume much electricity."
The power consumed by blood creatures can be replenished in the monster room without causing any additional losses.
He reflected on himself and wondered if he should stop calling himself a ghost vase.
After solving the heating problem, the ghost put his hand on the shoulder of his beloved.
Before Xu Zhiyan could react, the scene suddenly changed. When he opened his eyes again, he appeared in the room.
"Why are you here?" he asked, somewhat puzzled.
The ghost looked at the setting sun outside the window and suddenly spoke softly.
"I'm here to implant a blood vessel today."
"Huh? Shouldn't it be before going to the new copy?" Xu Zhiyan was shocked. He remembered that the other party said that this thing would be very painful.
"Because today is a good opportunity, it might not hurt that much."
The ghost did not explain why, but just lowered his head and looked at Xu Zhiyan gently.
After he separated a part of his strength and paid it to the main system today, he found that his condition had deteriorated, which would affect the condition of his blood vessels.
When the strength is reduced, implanting a weak blood vessel is much easier than implanting a violent blood vessel when the strength is sufficient. It probably won't make Xu Zhiyan suffer from excruciating pain.
"Do you believe me?"
The ghost's tone was clearly flat, but Xu Zhiyan inexplicably heard a hint of caution in it.
He nodded seriously and answered with a smile.
"Of course, we are a community of interests, the most stable and intimate relationship in the world. Of course I believe you."
After listening to this, the ghost suddenly leaned down, approached the young man's ear, and spoke in a gentle voice.
"Close your eyes and leave everything to me."
Xu Zhiyan closed his eyes obediently, but he was still a little excited about the power he was about to gain.
The next moment, he felt ghosts and spirits vaguely surrounding him, his shoes disappeared for some reason, and he felt a strange touch under his feet. He realized that he seemed to no longer be in the safe house.
In Xu Zhiyan's sight, he was dragged into the void.
In the center of endless void darkness.
The thin young man with his eyes closed was placed on the round black rock altar.
