Chapter 304 Mask Ability
Finally, Qingfeng comforted him, "Actually, even if we had remembered the Fortune Fruit back then, it wouldn't have helped. The Fortune Fruit has a very long growth period. Even under the influence of the mutated bean sprouts, it would still take more than a month. The previous map only lasted for about twenty days, which is not enough time at all."
Because of these words, the slight regret in Meng Qingyin's heart quickly dissipated.
She took out the Fortune Fruit seeds from her system inventory and looked at Qingfeng expectantly, asking, "Then I'll leave the planting of Fortune Fruits to you."
Qingfeng: "Didn't I tell you in detail how to plant the Fortune Fruit?"
Meng Qingyin nodded, "You're telling me the right thing, but how can my meticulous adherence to the steps compare to your personal cultivation? You're a master grower."
Qingfeng tried hard to control the urge to smile, his expression calm: "Alright then."
Meng Qingyin handed her the seeds, saying, "Then I'll have to trouble you."
Qingfeng took the seeds to the planting room.
The little one said weakly, "Master, I'm so hungry..."
Meng Qingyin immediately took some food from her spatial ring and fed it to the baby, who wolfed it down.
At this moment, the group chat became active again.
I'm the Lucky One (Poor Man's Version): "I just got some very important news! This map might be the longest-running map ever!"
Drowning his sorrows in strong liquor: "Is your information reliable?"
I'm a lucky winner (poor guy version): "Of course it's reliable! I just opened a chest and got an item. It clearly says that this map will last for at least six months!"
Drowning his sorrows in strong liquor: "It's actually been half a year?"
I'm a lucky person (poor version): "Yeah, at least half a year. I don't know why this map lasts for so long."
Chen Leying: "If it's half a year, many people probably can't stick to it for that long."
Mengmeng: "Hmm, this map might be like Don't Starve, with a lot of players dying."
Of course, the high lethality rate in the Don't Starve map is relative to players in other regions.
Because they had stockpiled food in advance, not many players died in their area.
But this map is different.
Players didn't accumulate much money in the previous stage, and this map is burning through money every day.
It is foreseeable that without ways to make money, players would find it difficult to persist for as long as six months.
Moreover, Lu Cheng just said, "at least six months."
In other words, this map will take at least six months to develop, and may take even longer.
I'm an unlucky player: "In several previous maps, we found key items that allowed players to enter the next map early. Will there be a similar item this time that will allow us to leave the map early? Half a year is really too long."
There was silence in the group for a moment.
Nobody knows if such a prop even exists.
Suddenly, Qin Jiu said, "That's right, maybe we can ask Granny Jinxiu!"
I'm the Lucky One (Poor Man's Version): "But even if Granny Kim Soo has such a prop, we don't have the Heart of the Night Demon. And..."
"And what? Lu Cheng, don't leave things unsaid!" said the man, drowning his sorrows in strong liquor.
I'm a lucky winner (poor guy version): "The item also states that even if you leave this map, the charging model for survival resources will not change and will remain unchanged."
Drinking strong liquor to drown my sorrows: "Damn it!"
If that's the case, then it doesn't seem to matter whether we leave this map or not.
Meng Qingyin had already guessed this.
When she paid for survival resources, there was an option for a one-year payment period. At the time, she had a vague guess that the system of charging for survival resources might be maintained in the future.
But she didn't expect that this map would last for at least half a year.
The elderly man said, "I just asked Jin Xiu, and she said there are no items that allow us to leave this map early, but it's not impossible."
Zhang Yan: "What do you mean?"
The elderly man said, "You can enter the next map once you clear the Tower of Babel."
"That's it," said the man who was drowning his sorrows in strong liquor. "You guys haven't seen that tower. You can't see the end of it at a glance, so you have no idea how many floors it has! And the five of us have only made it through three floors in an hour. We still don't know how to deal with the mutated scorpions on the fourth floor."
I'm a lucky guy (poor guy version): "It seems that no matter which path you take, it won't be easy."
Mengmeng: "No matter what, now that we have a second way to leave this place earlier, we have no reason not to give it a try."
Chen Leying: "Yes, I've tried. It's okay even if I fail."
Drowning his sorrows in strong liquor: "You're right, I'll go open the box right now and try to get a ticket to the Tower of Babel!"
I'm an unlucky person: "I saw Mask in the chat area shouting again, saying she has a ticket to the Tower of Babel."
Everyone immediately switched to the chat area.
Mask: "I have a ticket to the Tower of Babel! I have a ticket to the Tower of Babel! I have a ticket to the Tower of Babel!"
Lonely Square 3: "Count me in!"
New Year's cat: "Count me in too!"
Mask: "I have a ticket to the Tower of Babel! I have a ticket to the Tower of Babel! I have a ticket to the Tower of Babel!"
Little Bear Can Play Chess: "Mask Master? Can you see our messages?"
"..."
Just like what happened at the gambling table last time, Mask ignored all the players who asked to team up, focusing only on sending his own messages, which was very strange.
Meng Qingyin's eyes flickered.
This isn't the first or second time something like this has happened, from the pesticide incident to the gambling table incident, and now to the Tower of Babel entrance tickets.
It's always the same approach.
The "mask" might also possess some kind of power.
What are her abilities?
Can it be materialized into a specific prop?
...
At this moment, the person wearing the fox mask was still repeatedly sending that message.
A moment later, she stopped, panting.
For some reason, what she wanted this time was more difficult than before, and it took a much greater toll on her mental and physical energy.
Her ability is called "Mask".
[Mask: When falsehood is taken for truth, even truth becomes falsehood. When you repeatedly tell a lie, it may cease to be a lie. Beneath the mask, who is real and who is fake?]
She tried many times, and this "lie" could only be made possible when a specific prop was involved.
Tang Mian calmed her somewhat disordered breathing and sent the message again.
Mask: "I have a ticket to the Tower of Babel!"
The next moment, an admission ticket to the Tower of Babel appeared out of thin air in her hand!
Forgetting her joy, Tang Mian ripped off her mask and looked at herself in the mirror.
