Chapter 291 Reunion (4) - Getting to know Si Zhong Again
Players live off points, but earning points is not easy.
Therefore, unless players have something to rely on, they generally won't waste their precious time farming dungeons by idly passing the time in the market.
Anyone willing to do this must have some ulterior motive; they are very likely someone she is looking for to buy and sell information.
Of course, these are all just her guesses.
In order to avoid doing anything unnecessary, she relied on the points data given to her by Lord Ping to highly suspect a person.
That person's points stood out among the stall owners at the market.
That's a five-figure score, something even she couldn't achieve at her peak.
Ning Shu coughed lightly twice, admitting that he was narcissistic.
In a game, someone with her skill level would probably just be a weakling.
However, being weak has its advantages. For example, right now, she can boldly test the stall owner with five-figure points.
The other party can probably reveal something to her.
Ning Shu stepped forward and asked the young man who was lazily leaning back in the wicker chair, "Hello, young man."
The young man remained reclining in the wicker chair, lazily lifting his eyes to look at her: "What do you want to buy?"
Ning Shu looked left and right, then lowered her voice: "I...I want to buy some information."
The young man was taken aback: "We don't sell information here, we only sell these things on the stall. Take them if you want, they're all 2 points."
Ning Shu glanced at the items on the stall. Was this all worth 2 points?
Do I have to buy him something in order to continue our conversation?
"Do we have to buy something to continue our conversation? You... you don't need to set up a stall here."
The young man lifted himself off the back of the rattan chair, sat up straight, and stared at Ning Shu: "Password."
Ning Shu: ?
Her reaction made the deliveryman laugh: "We don't have what you're looking for here, please leave."
Seeing that the other party was unmoved, Ning Shu directly used her ultimate move: "Is 10985 points enough?"
The young man's pupils contracted, and he frowned in confusion, but quickly regained his composure: "So... you came here without knowing anything?"
Ning Shu: "I really don't know anything. I just wanted to ask if you have any news about leaving the game."
If you have it, name your price. I'll buy it if I make a profit. Shall we add each other as friends first?
The young man looked at Ning Shu's innocent face and said, "The price I quoted is beyond your reach."
Ning Shu: "No way, if we don't have enough points, we can make up for it with other things. There's always something that can match it, right?"
The guy said, "Come find me again when you have 100,000 points."
Ning Shu was delighted: "Shall we add each other as friends first?"
The young man declined, saying, "That won't be necessary. 100,000 points is enough for you to work hard for a long time."
Oh dear, who do you think you are?
Ning Shu glared at the other person, snorted, took a few steps, and then turned back: "I will definitely come back!"
Wait a minute.
This sentence sounds familiar; it seems like a line from an animated film.
Ning Shu: "Then you can at least tell me your name, right? Otherwise, I'll just call you 'Hey'."
The young man said, "...Fengsheng, Feng as in phoenix, Sheng as in birthday."
Is it the "phoenix voice" that sounds like "the young phoenix's voice is clearer than the old phoenix's voice"?
Ning Shu felt that his father really had high hopes for him, but the name was not good. It should be called "Young Phoenix" to have a better meaning.
Ning Shu shrugged and turned to leave.
Feng Sheng asked curiously, "Miss, won't you leave your name?"
Ning Shu: "Hmph, I'll tell you when I come back to find you!"
Ning Shu left Feng Sheng's stall, racking her brains to figure out how to find graffiti.
Before she contacted him, he was always around her, but now that she needs to find him, he's vanished without a trace.
As I walked, my vision suddenly went dark and then bright again, and then I heard the system's voice.
Welcome to the "Chained Together" non-fixed instance.
[Completion Mission: Team up in pairs and work together to reach the top to complete the mission.]
[Note: Players must cooperate to reach the top; harming teammates is prohibited and will result in game failure.]
[Customs clearance time: 3 days.]
[Initial supplies: None.]
We wish you a pleasant gaming experience!
Ning Shu was shocked. How did we end up in a dungeon again?
Isn't a chain of links supposed to be a fixed copy? How did it become a non-fixed copy?
She found herself surrounded by an environment that was actually linked together in a dungeon, and... how come Si Zhong was there too?!
I also noticed that the points above his head had decreased, and I wondered what he had done that caused his points to suddenly drop from 7 digits to 6 digits.
That's hundreds of thousands of points! What a spendthrift!
Ning Shu suddenly remembered the rule that the two of them were tied together, and quickly started looking for someone.
But the only person closest to her was Si Zhong; everyone else was incredibly far away from her.
She quickly started running towards a crowded area, and the system's voice rang in her ears again.
The game is about to start and players will be automatically matched based on proximity.
What the heck?!
Previously, players were allowed to choose first, and automatic pairing only occurred after a timeout, right?
Why did it pair automatically right away this time?
The next moment, a chain appeared on her right wrist again, and the other end of the chain was tied to Si Zhong's wrist.
Ning Shu: "..."
...
Ning Shu was somewhat incredulous after successfully escaping the instance.
Damn it, the top 10% of players who clear this dungeon will receive 20% of the total score of all players who cleared this dungeon in the previous period.
The result was zero!
So no one had ever run this dungeon before? They were the first to try it!
The thought that someone else could get 20% of Si Zhong's points made her even more heartbroken.
She felt that this time the experience of the linked dungeon was different from the previous ones. It wasn't that the content of the dungeon had changed much, but that Si Zhong himself had changed a lot.
Previously, his attitude towards me could be described as terrible, and he would often make fun of me.
But this time, he was surprisingly gentlemanly.
Ha, that scoundrel, he only acts like a human being when he has an ulterior motive.
Ning Shu mentally cursed Si Zhong, but on her face she showed gratitude: "Si Zhong, thank you for your help. Let's part ways here."
Si Zhong remained silent. He hadn't expected that even after they had gone through a certain phase together, they were still only at the stage of "knowing" each other.
I feel like I made a mistake; things shouldn't have turned out this way.
But he realized it too late; he can't do it again next time.
He left with a gloomy face.
Ning Shu breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the person leave, returned to her accommodation, and started browsing the forum again.
I am your water:
Family, this game is really something else, it's unbelievable that a fixed dungeon can be converted into a non-fixed dungeon.
The crucial point is that the first person to eat this kind of crab didn't get any points!
God knows that when I heard I was awarded zero points, it was probably worse than crying.
[Haha: Exactly! For this kind of dungeon transfer, can't you at least give a basic score for the first time? Even 10 points would be fine. No points at all is really outrageous.]
[Drunken Goose: Do you think there will be more and more instances of people switching between dungeons in the future? I've run this dungeon before, and it seems a bit more difficult.]
[I am your water: That can't be right, what could have triggered this change?]
[Wahaha: Who knows?]
