Chapter 533: Tavern Owner, Christmas Special



"This is a problem... The Countermeasures Bureau has assigned Yao Fei, the captain of the second team, to be my secretary. Do you still remember Yao Fei?"

Ren Suo looked at his phone and thought for a while before replying, "Big breasts, thin waist, very beautiful?"

It was a long time ago that he last saw the captain of the second team, Yao Fei. After he left the Countermeasures Bureau, he never saw her again. However, the biggest difference between a beautiful woman and a passerby is that a glance at a beautiful woman can be remembered. Just like ordinary classmates in elementary school may have forgotten, but the most beautiful female classmates can probably still be remembered.

Xiao Qiao: "Is that her? (sent a picture)."

Ren Suo took a look and the corner of his mouth twitched.

"Σ(°△°)︴Isn't this you?"

Xiao Qiao: "Yes, big breasts, thin waist, very beautiful, doesn't it meet the requirements?"

Ren Suo: "...Okay, you're pretty so whatever you say is right. Then aren't you happy that Yao Fei is your secretary? In the future, you can have a secretary to do things for you..."

Xiao Qiao: "It's not that easy. I also want to be a secretary when I have something to do, and hang out with you when I have nothing to do... I was planning to take a break for two days and ask you to go ice skating, but I didn't expect that the boss arranged a secretary for me when I wasn't paying attention. Now I have to work hard like Yu Kuangtu... Alas, happy times always pass by so quickly."

"I really hope December will be kind to me and I can be happy every day."

Ren Suo: "There are still more than ten minutes until December."

Xiao Qiao: "Really? But I still feel like December has arrived to treat me well."

Ren Suo blinked and replied, "Is the clock on your phone broken?"

"Negative emotions from Qiao Muyi, +233."

Although he didn't quite understand it, he was able to dig out negative emotions from the big devil Qiao Muyi. Ren Suo suddenly felt a sense of joy that he had won half a step over God.

However, Qiao Muyi seemed angry and stopped talking to him. Instead, Gu Yueyan sent him a file on QQ. Ren Suo took a look and found it was a research paper on the havoc in heaven.

Ren Suo quickly glanced over the paper and found that the format was basically fine, so he replied, "Okay, I'll put my supervisor's name on this paper, and if the Strategy Bureau has any rewards, I'll transfer them directly to you."

Gu Yueyan did not reply, but Ren Suo saw the prompt "The other party is typing..." and waited patiently for a while.

However, Gu Yueyan still didn't reply, so he took the initiative to ask, "What's the matter?"

After a moment, Gu Yueyan replied: "My awakening spell seems to have become stronger."

Ren Suo cheered up: "Good news!"

Although it feels unfair, the awakened ones not only have awakening spells that the non-awakened ones envy from the beginning, but as time goes by and their strength increases, the awakening spells will become stronger and stronger, and even produce other effects.

Like Dong Chengling, whether it is long-distance teleportation or close-range flash attack, they have been slowly researched and the effect is powerful and unique. Although everyone is envious on the surface, in fact, they are so envious that they are about to explode on the spot.

Although most awakening spells are of no help in cultivation, humans are social animals and must make contributions in order to gain social feedback.

This can be seen from the fact that Ren Suo, with the help of healing spells, can become a tax thief without any scruples, escape the beatings of society and the destruction of life, and jump directly from teenage life to retirement life.

Now that Gu Yueyan's awakening spells have become stronger, the biggest significance to Ren Suo is that her bond ability may be strengthened. Of course, Ren Suo is also really happy for her. For other people, it's fine, but Gu Yueyan's diligence is no less than Dong Chengling, and she deserves this blessing of fate.

Gu Yueyan: "I want to practice awakening spells."

Ren Suo: "Yeah, the combat training ground should be open in a few days, right? Then you can practice well."

After Ren Suo sent this message, Gu Yueyan didn't reply for a long time, and then suddenly sent a message.

"Negative emotions from Gu Yueyan, +100."

"...Huh? Why is she suddenly angry?" Ren Suo frowned slightly, "Could it be...Gu Yueyan...isn't she?"

Ren Suo searched the Internet and replied, "The weather is cold recently, drink more hot water and hold a hot water bottle when you sleep. Do you want Cheng Ling to make some ginger, jujube and brown sugar water for you?"

"Negative emotions from Gu Yueyan, +233."

Gu Yueyan: "Thank you."

Although you said thank you, you were still a little angry... But Ren Suo was very considerate of her. After all, it was the day of the month when blood shed but no tears fell. Even for her, it was normal to have a bit of temper.

Back then, when Ren Suo was still a child, his mother would beat him and feed him a candy every month when relatives came over, but would beat him without candy if there was something wrong. But at that time, Ren Suo was causing trouble every day, so he got used to being beaten. It was not until much later that he realized that his mother would fall into a state of bleeding rage on certain days of each month.

In the girls' dormitory, Gu Yueyan, curled up in bed, suddenly said, "Salted fish!"

Lin Xianyu, who was playing with his phone, blinked: "Hmm?"

"I want a hot water bottle."

Lin Xianyu: "Σ(°△°)︴...I only have one."

"That's fine."

Two seconds later, a furry hot water bag fell to Gu Yueyan's chest with the breeze. Gu Yueyan put the hot water bag into the quilt and hugged it. He looked at the photo album on his phone angrily, hummed twice, and muttered: "How did he know..."

"But he has forgotten it... He obviously still owes me... What a debt-ridden bastard."

However, the more Gu Yueyan looked at the photos, the more unhappy he became. Finally, he got out of bed and decided to do two indefinite integral examples to calm down.

Click.

When the time jumped from 23:59 to 0:00, Ren Suo's body couldn't help but tremble strangely. His long-dormant liver function was reviving.

He has been sleeping more and waking up less these past two days, just so that he can play games well tonight!

On December 1st, the free games are finally refreshed!

"It's a small world, the fun is endless." This time the startup tone was a frivolous male voice. It seemed that the Small World game console was also looking forward to being played by Ren Suo for seven or eight hours in a row!

Entering the "World Store", Ren Suo did not see the "Free Games of the Month" column, but he was not surprised.

After all, it is December!

Where the "Free Games of the Month" column should have been, there now appears a gorgeous column decorated with lights and colors called "Christmas Exclusive - Hunting Night"!

The background is a city that never sleeps with only a bright moon. The slender and graceful black silhouettes of a dozen women are confronting each other. There are also countless dark shadows fighting in the city. The moon and darkness make the night sky lonely and indifferent, while blood and fire make the earth noisy and boiling!

"Christmas Exclusive: Players can choose to use the 'Christmas Promotion' opportunity to play the exclusive game "Hunting Night", or use the holiday promotion opportunity to draw other free games (choose one of the two)."

"Christmas exclusive: The play time limit is before Christmas (until 23:59:59 on December 24th). Exceeding the time limit will be regarded as a game failure."

Hunting Night

"This game is a role-playing strategy adventure action game. The distant God of Slaughter is on his way, and the bloody moon is about to rise. This world is not always treated gently. Players will become apostles of the Moon God, participate in the hunting night, and fight for the throne of the only Moon Singer.

This game can reward up to 350 points of merit for clearing the game. The exclusive reward for clearing the game is related to the route chosen by the player. There is an in-app purchase option. There is only one chapter and no subsequent chapters. The game difficulty is: 4 stars. "

"Note: In the Christmas exclusive game, players can choose to use up promotional times to make in-app purchases."

"Number of promotions remaining this month: 2 (Heavy Snow, Winter Solstice)"

“It’s not a 5-star game… that’s fine too.” Ren Suo thought.

Playing high-star games can certainly quickly increase player experience and earn merits, but now Ren Suo's "Clear Spring Flowing Sound" has no summoning time at all, which means that Ren Suo is very easy to get stuck and has no ability to turn the tables.

But from what Ren Suo has seen, games with 5 stars and above seem to take "Clear Spring Flowing Sound" into account in the difficulty by default. For example, in "Hand of Fate", Ren Suo really can't pass the level without the help of "Clear Spring Flowing Sound".

Therefore, if Ren Suo dared to play a 5-star game now, he would most likely be stuck at a level and smash the controller, or even have to use up all his merits to barely pass the level.

Moreover, Ren Suo's main income from playing games has changed from exclusive rewards and merits to exclusive rewards, merits and game characters.

As for the 5-star game characters, they were combat forces that Ren Suo could not use temporarily. After all, his "Clear Spring Flowing Sound" could only summon game characters below 4 stars.

Therefore, Ren Suo originally planned to play a 4-star game this month to relax. And this "Hunting Night" can even use the promotional activities to pay for krypton gold, which is very friendly to Ren Suo's wallet. Ren Suo can be said to be very satisfied.

The only problem is that the exclusive rewards for completing the game are unclear, and I don't know what I will get. But based on Rensuo's previous gaming experience, all the exclusive rewards for completing the game are related to the game content, such as "The Magician Under the World Tree", "High Energy Ahead", and "My Life Is Not Your Game", and the rewards are all good.

"The Magician Under the World Tree" rewarded the pure white holy grail, and "High Energy Ahead" rewarded listening headphones. Only "My Life Is Not Your Game" was a pain in the ass because it rewarded... rewarded Xiaojiu.

Although Ren Suo was basically going to play this, he exited the "World Store" and clicked on the portal icon with the "Tavern" sign on the lower left corner.

That’s right, among the privilege options for players who have been promoted to level 5, Ren Suo finally couldn’t resist his curiosity and chose “The Mysterious Tavern Owner”!

After all, the first two privileges are clear at a glance, but this privilege seems unclear. Maybe Ren Suo can earn more merits and his game character will be stronger if he chooses the first two privileges, but he will definitely spend countless nights in the future thinking about what the "mysterious tavern owner" is for, just like he thought about it for two whole years after seeing the Hell 4 Pro game console on the market three years ago!

Should he earn more merits, become stronger, or satisfy his curiosity? Ren Suo chose the third option.

Of course, he thought that the player privileges couldn't be that bad, and he would not lose no matter which choice he made.

However, compared to the player privileges with obvious effects, the value of the Tavern Owner player privilege is more difficult to reflect...except when playing a new game.

The scene switches to a clean medieval tavern with flickering candlelight, spotless wooden floors, round tables and small stools scattered around, and bottles of fine wine on the wine racks behind the counter.

Ren Suo took a glance and suddenly let out a sigh.

He had just chosen this privilege, and when he arrived at the tavern, he saw that the tavern was empty, but now there appeared an explorer who was his acquaintance, wearing strange clothes, pink heart-shaped glasses, flying boots, and a rosary wrapped around his hands!

He clicked on the explorer, and the explorer turned his head, his eyes seemed to pass through the screen, staring straight at Ren Suo.

"How is Lu Manman now?" he asked.

Ren Suo was stunned. Who is Lu Manman?

Just as he was stunned, a dialog box suddenly appeared on the screen. There was a gray microphone next to the dialog box, which seemed to require him to type or speak directly into the microphone.

Ren Suo thought about it and said, "I don't know."

"What use are you to me?" The explorer snorted, put down his wine glass, walked straight out of the screen, and left the picture directly.

Ren Suo was confused. Why was he being scolded by the explorer?

Wait, why are the game characters in the tavern? And Ren Suo can talk to them? The explorer just left the tavern, where did he go?

He clicked on the tavern owner who was bathed in darkness and selected the dialogue option: "Why did that man appear in the tavern just now?"

The bar owner, who was cleaning glasses behind the counter with only his white hands showing, replied, "Because he wants to drink."

What you said makes a lot of sense.

"Do you know who that man is?"

"know."

"Who is he then?"

"man."

That's really obvious.

"..." Ren Suo continued to ask: "Do you know where he is from?"

"Outside."

Do you also have an ability called "Devil Returns"? How come you can speak more slyly than Qiao Muyi?

Ren Suo asked, "Where is the tavern?"

The tavern owner's eyes, hidden in the darkness, looked at Ren Suo outside the screen with a look that looked at a fool: "On the ground."

Ren Suo gave up asking further, but he was already very surprised to find that the game characters could actually appear in this tavern. Based on this, it was worth it for Ren Suo to choose the third privilege!

Even though this may not be useful, players can chat with game characters (without using "Clear Spring Flowing Sound"), and this beautiful dreamlike blend of fantasy and reality is enough to make Ren Suo's player soul burn.

Moreover, Ren Suo just wanted to see when the Explorer would appear with the others. By then, he would probably be able to persuade the World Devouring Spirit, the Seeker, Ren Han and the others to give the Explorer a good beating.

Now Ren Suo carried out the real purpose of his trip: "How about the game "Hunting Night"? (10 points of merit)"

Ask the game, this is the greatest significance of the mysterious tavern owner!

In the setting, the tavern owner seems to know the inside story of all games. Before buying a game, Ren Suo can ask him for relevant information about the game so that he can make a more accurate judgment.

There was no point in asking about old games, so Ren Suo only paid to ask about new games.

Tavern owner: "Ah, this game... It's super fun, very interesting. Believe me, you'll fall in love with it in just 5 minutes. The game is of average difficulty. If you have money, you can just beat it. And the NPCs in this game are very good. You will have a lot of help in the game. You should be nicer to friendly NPCs."

Could this tavern owner be a shill for the game? Why is everything so exaggerated? Ren Suo wanted to enter the game right away.

But a game called NPC in Hunting Night would be very good?

Could it be a sarcasm?

For example, the hardcore action games that Ren Suo recommended to Xiao Jiu before, the most popular game reviews are "It's so fun, I'm almost addicted to it", "A very fun love simulation game", "Extremely praised: I woke up from a dying dream and the journey began all over again" and other such deceptive and masochistic words.

I feel like what the tavern owner said isn't worth 10 points of merit!

The tavern owner seemed to remember something at this time, gently put down the glass, and said: "By the way, although this is part of the game content, but considering the merits you spent, I can tell you in advance..."

"After receiving a decent tip, the tavern owner whispered to you: You can create your own character in this game."
