Chapter 237: White Orchid Rain Festival (XIX)
It was clearly a mechanical sound similar to usual, but Nan Huan somehow heard a bit of eerie feeling in it.
In addition, there was obviously something wrong with the pawn ticket just now, and in the end he had to compromise because of his own blood. So even though Nan Huan heard that "the ownership of the pawnshop is being transferred", he did not feel relieved. Instead, he became wary of this blood contract.
[1. The owner of the pawnshop voluntarily stays in Bailan City and, according to the system's requirements, guards the pawnshop to provide convenience for the candidates who want to become saints, fulfill their wishes, and take away items of corresponding value from their bodies.]
As the system's voice sounded again, black air emerged from all directions in the pure black space and began to gather on Nan Huan's body and the white water curtain in front of him.
Words made of black gas soon appeared on the white water curtain.
If another player heard this, they would definitely be very panicked because once a wish is made, it cannot be revoked. After all, staying in Bailan City and becoming the new owner of the pawnshop means that she will permanently lose her identity as a player.
The system's tone, which had been gloomy just now, now carried a hint of joy, as if it was very excited that it could keep the other party here without any effort, and even at the young lady's own request.
But this excitement didn't last long.
[2. The pawnshop...]
When Yizhihua heard the first thing, her face looked very bad.
Just as she was looking at Nan Huan worriedly, she heard the sound of the system, which was full of vitality just now, suddenly seemed to be disturbed by something, with a slight sound of electricity, and it seemed not so smooth.
In the last sentence, he only said three words and then stopped completely.
When she looked again, she found that whether it was the black gas that was about to turn into chains to trap Nan Huan, or the black gas that formed the words on the water curtain, Nan Huan just hooked his finger and obediently entered the other's body.
Even the black energy on his body began to loosen, and at Nan Huan's signal, it was absorbed by the other party.
After a while, the system's voice sounded again in the empty black space, but this time it sounded a little bit harsh.
[Blood contract generation failed, pawn shop transfer procedure error...]
Nan Huan raised his eyebrows, but his hands did not relax because of the system's prompt. Instead, he sped up the absorption speed.
The last time she had a full meal was in the "Brave New World" copy. At that time, the black air caused her health value to increase directly from 0.1 to 10.1. She also discovered that this health value would not disappear when she entered the rest area.
In the next few copies, Bei Xi was always looking for opportunities to allow her to absorb a little more black energy and increase her health.
But apart from the different black energy in the previous copy that almost injured Nan Huan, they gained nothing.
Now that they have arrived in Bailan City, on the first day, Nan Huan discovered that there was a lot of black air surrounding the High Priest's Mansion. However, it is still unclear what is hidden in the High Priest's Mansion, so Nan Huan did not act rashly.
She didn't expect that there was such dark energy in the pawnshop. Of course, she decided to take the risk only after seeing the black chain on the tail of a flower.
Now it seems that it is still worth it. She is like a person who has been hungry for a long time and suddenly enters an unlimited buffet restaurant. She must fill her stomach first.
What's more, if she didn't absorb these things, she would really have to stay in Bailan City.
It was effortless for Nan Huan to absorb the black air. She even opened her eyes curiously, wanting to see how much black air there was in this space.
Here, Nan Huan was enjoying his own dinner, but the sound of the system became increasingly shrill.
[Warning, warning, pawn shop program error, pawn shop program error...]
It was like a dying swan, making a shrill sound, but it could only watch it all and was powerless to do anything.
After a moment, the system weakly uttered the last sentence.
[Warning, the pawn shop is out of control...]
The black energy on Yizhihua's body has been completely absorbed by Nanhuan. After the last bit of black energy in the space was absorbed into Nanhuan's body, she found that her health value jumped from the original 10.1 to an astonishing 30.1.
She absorbed more black gas than the first time, and her health increased almost twice. Nan Huan felt it very obviously. At the same time, she found that as her health increased, the upper limit of her ability to absorb black gas seemed to be constantly increasing.
【bite--
The pawnshop transfer is successful and you have become the new owner of the pawnshop.
During the transfer process, the pawnshop was out of the previous control and became a brand new pawnshop.
This will be your brand new pawn shop, and you will rewrite all the rules. 】
Although it was not very willing, the system still had to dutifully inform Nan Huan that the other party had written a legend with his own abilities.
Following the system's voice, Nan Huan was the first to discover that there was a 'Dang' sign on his control panel.
She was a little surprised. She originally thought that after absorbing the black air, at most she would no longer be trapped here, but she didn't expect to get an unexpected gain.
The pawnshop was out of control? Was this control a system or something else?
After all, the previous warning had indicated that the pawnshop was out of control. Nan Huan remembered the invisible force when he signed the pawn ticket. Perhaps there was more than one force controlling it?
Otherwise, why not just alert the pawnshop that it has lost control of the system?
Nan Huan temporarily swallowed this doubt into her stomach. After all, what changed her interest was that 'all the rules are rewritten by you'.
She seems to have some extra plug-ins, but it’s not clear what the functions of these plug-ins are?
Yizhihua watched in amazement as the pawnshop was transferred to its new owner. It swung its tail in the air feeling very uncomfortable. Without the restraint, the tail seemed to be a lot lighter.
She dove in front of Nan Huan and smiled in the truest sense of the word, "It actually worked. You don't have to be trapped here. It's great."
The flower, free from its restraints, was like a fish, treating the vast dark space as the sea, swimming up and down. Its green tail made Nan Huan's eyes hurt, but she was much more beautiful flying like this than staying in mid-air.
"You can finally leave here and go wherever you want."
Nan Huan helped her out of the blue. He was in a good mood and was sincerely happy for her.
"Thank you," Yizhihua suddenly became shy, approached Nanhuan and whispered, then immediately headed in a certain direction at full speed, "I'm leaving."
She spoke decisively, but in the end, the green tail still slid across Nanhuan's cheek reluctantly, very gently and carefully.
But the next second, before Nan Huan had time to see the other person off, he heard a loud noise.
Yizhihua seemed to hit something hard and bounced back. Fortunately, when she was about to fall to the ground, her long tail helped her maintain her balance and prevented her from falling to the ground in an awkward posture.
Nan Huan was frightened. He flapped his wings and flew in front of Yizhihua, watching her put her hand on the bump on her forehead.
"What's wrong?"
Could it be that I haven’t been out for too long, so I didn’t find the right door, Nan Huan thought to himself.
But she looked up at Yizhihua again and felt that given the other party's intelligence, it shouldn't be the case.
Yizhihua Benlong was obviously more frightened than Nanhuan. She was not giving up and moved her tail again, moving towards the boundaries around her. However, she had learned her lesson and did not use much strength this time.
But the result was the same as before, she couldn't get out and was bounced back. After changing directions several times, she had to accept the fact, "I still can't get out?"
Although the question was probably questioning, the tone was very certain, and she was visibly wilting.
"Hasn't the pawnshop owner become me? Why is that?"
Nan Huan asked sincerely, and after seeing Yizhihua's confused look, he offered a more reasonable explanation, "Is there any handover process that has not been completed?"
It was just like a normal work handover. She frowned and wondered if she had forgotten something.
After a while, she actually remembered something. She quickly took something out of the control panel and handed it to Yizhihua, "Did you not take the pawn from the transaction just now? Why don't you try again with this piece of the faith totem fragment?"
How many players were envious to death, something they could never even see was given away by Nanhuan just like that.
Yizhihua originally thought that she had really discovered something, and her eyes were full of hope, but after hearing her words, she was skeptical. "Logically speaking, the new owner will inherit all the previous pawn tickets. In other words, I have nothing to do with the pawn shop anymore. I need you to take this piece of faith totem fragment to trade with the gambler guild leader, so the rules didn't let me get this thing first."
After all, Yizhihua had been in the pawnshop for a long time and was very familiar with the working procedures there.
And logically speaking, after the pawn ticket is signed, Nan Huan doesn't have to take it out herself, she can easily take it away, but now because the pawnshop has a new owner, she no longer has this right.
What she said made sense, but that didn't stop Nan Huan from asking her to try it out.
Of course the result was still no success. Yizhihua only touched the boundary with her hand this time, but there was still no effect.
"It seems that this thing is not the reason?"
Nan Huan admitted that what Yizhihua had just said was correct, but he still didn't know where the problem lay.
A flower floated in the air as if it remembered something, and looked up towards Nanhuan.
"You haven't been notified that you've passed the screening and entered the real pawn shop yet?"
Her movements were a bit too big and scared Nan Huan.
Nan Huan also came to his senses. Yes, his wish might have been fulfilled. He had gotten the money from the pawnshop, but he was still here and unable to leave. Could it be that the problem was with him?
Nan Huan shook his head. "Except for the notification from the new owner just now, I haven't received anything."
While Yizhihua was asking the question, she felt something was wrong with her body. She seemed to be disappearing little by little starting from the tail end, and she suddenly felt the attraction coming from Nanhuan.
"Something's not right with me..."
Before she finished her words, the whole dragon suddenly turned into a green light and drilled into the back of Nan Huan's neck. It was so fast that Nan Huan had no time to react and only felt a chill on the back of his neck.
After a moment, she used the mirror she bought in the mall and saw that she had a green dragon tattoo on the back of her neck, which was very cool.
She touched her skin unconsciously, feeling a little uncomfortable.
Just as her hand touched Yizhihua's body, the other party moved on the surface of her skin, "Don't touch me casually, I can't go out for the time being."
Nan Huan was startled by her, but heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that she could still speak. "It's good that you're still alive. It seems that I have to take you out. You should just stay here for the time being."
Nan Huan was also confused by this situation, but the system did not give any prompts and ignored her calls. Nan Huan could only comfort Yizhihua temporarily.
At the same time, the system prompt sounded again.
【bite--
Because you have become the new owner of the pawnshop, you naturally have the right to enter the real pawnshop. 】
