Da Bai tensed up, her eyes glazed over, and she began to mutter in a slightly neurotic tone, "Something's not right, something's not right, something's really not right!"
Over and over again, it's always the same sentence.
Cheng Shuang raised an eyebrow slightly and asked casually, "What's wrong? Sister Da Bai, is it the person you're chatting with that's strange?"
The protectors and the homeless chatted happily. This would have been almost impossible if the homeless hadn't concealed his identity, but now the impossible was unfolding right before their eyes.
But the one that's most suspicious is Big White.
Her neurotic behavior was even more pronounced than Sun Han's in the past, causing any protectors who got close to her to quickly leave, as if they were afraid the patient might go crazy at any moment.
Although Cheng Shuang had many guesses, she ruled out the possibility that Da Bai had a mental illness. She believed that Da Bai should have his own abilities.
It was just like her intuition.
Initially, in the screening process where no skills were required, the little girl relied on her intuition to escape danger time and time again. Of course, her intelligence also helped a lot, earning her the nickname "Little Clever Girl" from the convenience store staff.
Cheng Shuang asked very carefully, which did have a guiding effect, but more so because she didn't want to interrupt Da Bai's state of mind. What if she interrupted him and he lost his inspiration?
Big White shook its head in confusion, its dark eyes fixed on a maintenance worker who was chatting and laughing with a homeless employee.
"His feeling, the feeling of his laughter, is very empty." Da Bai swallowed, seemingly searching for the right adjective, "It's a similar emptiness to my eyes."
So the young lady knew her gaze was unusual!
Cheng Shuang found it difficult to judge Da Bai's words because she couldn't see anything clearly. The mosaic-like image gave the entire food street a hazy, animated feel, or perhaps a unique quality resembling a large portion of crayon drawings.
By transforming terror into beauty, Cheng Shuang lost not only feelings of fear and tension, but also the effective analytical abilities she gained through observing her environment.
The little girl fell silent, pondering whether she should try using the black pills to alleviate the negative effects of the mosaic.
The mission in the previous single-person round-trip ticket increased the quantity of each type of pill she had acquired—15 red, 25 blue, 11 green, and 8 white.
There are only two Black Orbs. Although they are labeled with descriptions that they can remove negative effects and include basic detoxification, the visual mosaic indicates that the skill was overused, rather than a temporary skill attack from the enemy or a cooldown period for one's own skills. For example, Sun Han's "Bad Luck" skill, if detected in time, can be removed with a Black Orb, or similarly, some of the negative restrictions were removed like when the Red Cloak Card was given to Alice.
However, the removal doesn't provide 100% immunity, meaning that if Sun Han activates the skill again, the person will still be affected. The chance of being noticed by the final boss while wearing the red cloak card drops from 90% to 10%, which is the limit.
Therefore, Cheng Shuang has reason to suspect that the Black Orb's ability is not that powerful; it can only temporarily relieve the effects and cannot relieve the effects for the entire duration of this death domain.
That's better left for the cards.
The little girl quietly put down the black pill, and while Big White was silently thinking, she began to quietly examine the pills and cards she had exchanged for the sleep aid tablets.
Red 5, Blue 5, Green 2, White 2, three disposable cards.
Currently, there are a total of 20 red pills, 30 blue pills, 13 green pills, 10 white pills, and 2 black pills.
Although she knew the man couldn't possibly give her all the pills and cards, the little girl was already satisfied. The sleep aid tablets were naturally less valuable than the other two items, and she had already saved up several.
It's crucial when you need it, but not often.
She glanced at the cards briefly; they weren't particularly valuable, but they were quite practical.
Two cards, mother and child: 【???Fellenda Tower: Crawling inside will make you invincible; whoever you bump into will fall. Of course, after a certain point, it might not be anyone else who falls! Note: This card is the mother card; it is invalid without a child card.】
[Nobody Helps Anyone: Help nobody but the Eiffel Tower! Each time you help it, the tower shrinks by ten centimeters. Be careful, if it shrinks too much, you might get trapped inside and have no chance of escape! Note: This card is a child card, has no star rating, and is invalid without a parent card.]
This explains why the style is rare and considered normal.
The last card has four stars.
[Ah-Dai's Snot: Ah-Dai's snot has the special quality of being impossible to shake off! Once you wear it, you'll be the coolest and most unique kid on the block! Little Snot will give you a completely new experience—sticky and unforgettable! And, being a good kid, it won't bring you any negative effects!]
Yes! The only downside is that it will make her the center of attention, turning her from a clever little girl into someone who's suspected of being a silly girl who can't wipe her snot properly!
Despite her inner complaints, Cheng Shuang noticed its sticky, impossible-to-shake property. If used properly, it could likely produce unexpected results.
But...it's disgusting no matter how I think about it...
The two beautiful women, one big and one small, were now the focus of everyone's attention. However, the older one looked dazed and kept muttering to herself, like a crazy person you couldn't mess with; the younger one looked lost in thought, her expression sometimes happy and sometimes disgusted, which was also a bit abnormal.
Rarely, beautiful and harmless girls were rejected; their unusual behavior deterred many suspicious glances, except from homeless people who already had 'ulterior motives'.
The two's motionless behavior attracted the attention of the guide on the food street. Its eight short tentacles moved, and it swam quickly to the two like an octopus.
"Where would you like to go?"
"Something's not right, something's not right, what's wrong with it!"
