Ren Suo still has 1,070 merit points left.
If he converted all his merits into truth points, that would be 10,700 truth points, enough to buy the complete version of Absolute Blade Armor.
But he won't do that.
The Gate of Truth controlled by the Small World Game Console is lower in value than the Small World Game Console.
By the same token, the currency of the Gate of Truth, Truth Points, is lower than the Merits of the Small World.
1,000 points of merit is the red line that Ren Suo set for himself.
He would not let his merits drop to three digits. The merits of the small world should be used in more meaningful places, such as the lottery that appears when the player's level is upgraded. The appearance of the virtual reality device "Pandora's Box" was due to his unlucky lottery.
And he had to save 20 merit points to ask questions at the Mysterious Tavern, so he could only spend another 50 merit points to exchange for 500 truth points.
Including the rewards from the first level, Ren Suo now has a total of 3,700 truth points.
A lot, and a little.
You are still 1,100 points short of exchanging for the rotating bead version of blade armor.
Ren Suo sold all the friendships of strangers worth 120 truth points without hesitation. Those whose price was lower than this were mostly strangers who were just acquaintances. They seldom interacted with Ren Suo. As long as they didn't see each other for a few days, Ren Suo would automatically delete them as redundant memories. It would be better to exchange them for truth points, so that this once-in-a-lifetime friendship would become truth points to accompany him.
However, Ren Suo was a little concerned about feelings above 120 truth points.
To reiterate, Ren Suo's absolute rationality does not mean he is completely emotionless, but he will treat every emotion rationally.
The relationships that remain now are all necessary bonds for Ren Suo.
Gu Yuexuan, 125 truth points.
Ancient meaning, 120 truth points.
It seems that my father-in-law and brother-in-law are very dissatisfied with me.
However, Ren Suo was very sure that he would not live with these two guys in the future. Gu Yueyan had become independent and a little rebellious now, and he would definitely not listen to their evil words.
Check both people.
Dong Zhenzhong, 225 truth points.
Bei Wuyue, 230 truth points.
Dong's parents were much better than the two of Gu's. It seemed that his father-in-law and mother-in-law respected Dong Chengling's opinions and appreciated the man their daughter liked without prejudice. For a happy and happy marriage life in the future, Ren Suo now needed his father-in-law and mother-in-law to provide some help that they were completely unaware of.
Check both people.
I sold the affections of four relatives for a total of 700 truth points, 400 points still needed.
However, Ren Suo no longer had any father-in-law, mother-in-law, or brother-in-law to sell. However, strictly speaking, Ren's father and mother were both his parents and his father-in-law and mother-in-law...
However, Ren's father and mother's status in the relationship list is almost equivalent to the luxury villa real estate in the second ring of Tianjin. They just sit there and do nothing. The better the economy (the stronger the gatekeeper), the higher the value will rise like a rocket. Every time the gatekeeper ignites an essence, their price will rise a lot. The appreciation rate is faster than the friendship bond that Ren Suo has added by participating in the social gathering with great effort. They are simply the two fattest pigs on the vent.
If it is not necessary, Ren Suo will not touch these two stocks with potential to hit the daily limit.
The same goes for other people. The higher the value of something, the less likely Ren Suo will touch it.
So, Ren Suo is going to sell feelings from low to high according to the price list?
Not really.
For example, Yu Kuangtu, 180 truth points.
If he wasn't really short of these few truth points, Ren Suo would never sell out his feelings to Yu Kuangtu.
He is one of Ren Suo's important bonders, and he endows Ren Suo with the powerful bond ability of Flame Master. So far, this ability is still Ren Suo's main combat skill.
Ren Suo is not sure whether selling affection will affect the bond system, but Ren Suo does not need to take the risk.
Ren Suo suddenly remembered something and took a closer look, only to find that this list of emotions was incomplete and did not include the emotional relationship between him and the game character.
It would be unreasonable to say that he had no friendship with game characters like Ren Han, Seeker, and Zhao Zili, with whom he had met many times in real life. However, they did not appear in the redemption list at all, which meant that the Small World game console had blocked this sales option.
Ren Suo naturally had no idea of the specific truth, but he believed that the authority of the game character was higher than that of the game "Gate of Truth", so that the Gate of Truth could not detect the feelings between Ren Suo and the game character.
Ignoring this episode, Ren Suo re-planned his sales strategy.
Those dispensable emotions with less than 120 truth points are selling interest holding costs no matter from which angle you consider them.
But if the truth points are above 120, it means that the relationship is of certain benefit to Ren Suo. When selling, Ren Suo has to consider both the price potential and the actual impact.
The less of this slightly more important emotion is sold, the better.
Therefore, Ren Suo planned to sell the feelings of only one more person to collect 4,800 truth points.
However, looking at the exchange list, Ren Suo deeply realized his wonderful interpersonal relationships.
The closeness of most people's interpersonal relationships is either pyramid-shaped or column-shaped.
The pyramid type is knowing many clients with whom you have cold relationships, knowing some good friends, and having only a few extremely important relatives and partners. This type is often seen in the working class where you need to manage interpersonal relationships.
The column type means that the number of people with cold relationships, familiar relationships, and close relationships is almost the same. It often appears among staff who rarely expand their circle of friends but have certain hobbies.
But Ren Suo is amazing.
He has more close relationships with people than those with whom he is more familiar.
He has few friends, but many girlfriends.
There are only four people who can truly be considered as his good friends, and do not have the additional attributes of "sister", "girlfriend" or "daughter": Bai Ji, Zhao Huo, Yu Kuangtu and Li Dan.
Among them, Bai Ji was the only one whose emotional value had entered the four-digit level, almost becoming a girlfriend. Ren Suo couldn't help but look at Bai Ji with new eyes. He knew that he and Bai Ji had a good relationship, but he didn't expect it to be this good!
Even if Bai Ji suddenly came over and forced Ren Suo to cut off a chicken's head, burn yellow paper, kowtow to heaven and earth three times, and become brothers of different surnames who would remain together for life and death, Ren Suo would not be surprised.
So, how many women are there who have a close relationship with Ren Suo and whose emotional value is over four figures?
Dong Chengling, Gu Yueyan, Qiao Mu, Yiluna, Ren Xingmei, plus Ren Xiaojiu and Lin Xianyu, there are a total of seven!
Excluding Ren Xiaojiu, who was raised as a daughter, and Lin Xianyu, whose emotional value is about to fall below four digits, there are still five!
The girlfriend group beat the friend group!
This leads to a small problem: when Ren Suo doesn't want to betray those relationships that have great potential or special bonds, he doesn't really have much choice.
So his eyes naturally fell on that familiar name.
Zhao Huo, 410 truth points.
Unexpectedly, after these two days of communication, Zhao Huo's emotional value rose rapidly.
As to why this change occurred, Ren Suo thought it was because he and Qiao Muyi had worked together to deceive Zhao Huo, an honest man. When Zhao Huo came to his senses, he naturally became angry with Ren Suo, so Zhao Huo's emotional value was very low at the beginning.
But a man like Zhao Huo was like a six-year-old child. He would forget about his anger in less than two days. Moreover, Ren Suo had also hung around in front of him several times, having boring but interesting daily conversations with him, so Zhao Huo's feelings for Ren Suo quickly recovered.
Speaking of which, he and Zhao Huo have known each other for nearly a year.
The first time they met was at a training base for civil servants. He, Zhao Huo, and two other people lived in the same dormitory.
Who were the other two? Never mind, they may have become truth points to keep me company.
Even in the civil servant training base, Zhao Huo was a particularly outstanding figure, tall, handsome, and powerful. However, his daily outfit was usually a pain shirt (clothes with beautiful girl patterns) and jeans, which was enough to dispel other people's fantasies about him.
At that time, only the roommates in the same dormitory were familiar with Zhao Huo. There was no other way, Zhao Huo looked like a good fighter, so it was not easy to offend him.
Ren Suo knew long ago that Zhao Huo had a fiancée. The ten earrings on his ears were a mark of his fiancée, much like putting a collar on a dog.
Zhao Huo was later transferred to Tianlian College as a teacher due to his excellent performance. When they met again, Ren Suo and Zhao Huo were both very surprised.
When you are in an unfamiliar environment and doing an unfamiliar job, there is nothing better than having a friend to talk to.
Moreover, Ren Suo and Zhao Huo are very similar. They are both otakus who are fanatical about a certain hobby.
Although they couldn't understand each other, they respected each other.
Ren Suo once criticized Zhao Huo for watching anime in a vulgar way, but he also helped Zhao Huo with the ** axis; Zhao Huo despised Ren Suo for playing stand-alone games all day long instead of playing paper man mobile games, but when Ren Suo needed help, Zhao Huo never refused.
When he was unfamiliar with the place, it was Zhao Huo who told him that the girl who was eating quietly at one side of the cafeteria was called Dong Chengling.
When he went to the comic convention to rescue Xiao Jiu, it was Zhao Huo who helped him conceal his identity, although he really thought Ren Suo was there to help him perform a stage play.
When he was bored, it was the Shura field between Zhao Huo, his fiancée, childhood sweetheart and schoolmate that made Ren Suo full of hope for the future. "Wanting to witness Zhao Huo's ending" became one of the obsessions that supported Ren Suo's efforts to survive.
There are many more.
Looking back suddenly, Ren Suo realized that Zhao Huo was an important role in his life that he could not avoid.
A mere 410 truth points are not enough to measure the relationship between Ren Suo and Zhao Huo.
Although Ren Suo was no longer emotional, his rationality told him that the bond between him and Zhao Huo was deeper than he had imagined.
Just when this thought popped up in Ren Suo's mind, the emotion exchange list in his sight suddenly began to change.
Zhao Huo, 550 truth points.
Ren Suo: “…”
Ren Suo suddenly understood something: compared with absolutely rational people, the advantage of absolutely emotional people in selling emotions may be far greater than he imagined.
He sighed slightly, opened Pandora's box, sat in front of the computer, and created a new document named "Zhao Huo Strategy".
In one's life, one is destined to part ways with many people, even those who were once very close friends.
If you are so tolerant that you become weak, you will certainly be bullied;
If you are brave enough to say no, you won't be bound.
You must cut off the people and things that bind you in order to turn yourself into an independent and brave person.
The friendship is severed, but the mountains are high and the rivers are long.
The future is bright and the two have nothing to do with each other.
Zhao Huo, you are a good person.
But I still need 400 truth points to become stronger.
