However, even if they were together, they probably wouldn't have any interaction, just like their university life before the Value Game began.
She always kept her distance from people, never played with any particular group of people, and rarely went out with classmates except for class activities, spending all her time in the bookstore.
She recalled what Li Changzhou said in the live broadcast room: value games have changed the lives of many people, freeing them from daily life and allowing them to see scenery they had never seen before.
Happy times are always short-lived. In the blink of an eye, the three of them were already sitting in a KTV room called "Jin Hui".
Besides the complimentary fruit, the table was piled high with snacks, side dishes, and expensive fruits bought from the snack aisle. Because of their high spending, they were even allowed to order barbecue takeout—KTVs knowingly break the law! Takeout is not allowed!
"Back when we came to play, we would secretly hide snacks in our schoolbags!" Li Qianxia said with a mix of excitement and nostalgia, holding a watermelon in her left hand and a karaoke machine in her right.
"What would you like to sing?" she asked. "I'll start with 'Under the Hawthorn Tree,' Qinglan, what about you?"
“Liang Jingru’s ‘Question’.” Yang Qinglan looked around. It was her first time in a KTV, and she felt the lighting was a bit erotic.
"Question... Okay, brother, what about you?"
“Kill That SJZ Man.” Li Changzhou leaned back on the sofa, tore open a bag of weird-flavored beans he used to eat as a child, and began to eat them with relish.
For adults, no matter how novel the food or how attractive the packaging, it can't compare to the popsicles and spicy strips of childhood.
"Stop killing. You've killed enough people, your sins are too great. 'Because of Love,' you and Qinglan will sing a duet." Li Qianxia made the decision on her own.
After selecting the songs, she said, "Okay, now let's count our spoils. Whoever finds something good gets to sing. No one is allowed to hog the microphone."
“She’s a karaoke queen,” Li Changzhou whispered in Yang Qinglan’s ear.
"I can tell," Yang Qinglan nodded.
There were two microphones in the private room. Li Qianxia took one as a matter of course and placed it on her lap, ready to sing at any moment.
She added, "Qianxia, don't rush the other loot. Let your brother redeem 'Honey Pot World' first. The champion's priority purchase right only lasts for three hours."
"Oh, so you want to sing 'Because of Love' with my brother first, right?"
"..." Yang Qinglan looked at Li Changzhou and asked him with her eyes - What happened to your sister?
Li Changzhou hesitated slightly, glancing at the jelly bean on his fingertip: "You want to eat it?"
Yang Qinglan took the whole bag of weird-flavored beans from his hand and put it on the table.
"Brother, you've made Qinglan angry."
"I was just asking her if she wanted some, how did I cause this?"
During the conversation, Li Changzhou ate the grain from his fingertip, clapped his hands, and took out a white identity card.
Li Qianxia immediately plopped down next to him, munching on watermelon while watching him slide his ID card and browse his shopping list.
Yang Qinglan also looked over.
"The price of exchanging game currency for points is so high!" Li Qianxia exclaimed.
Li Changzhou earned over six million game coins through the live stream, but only one thousand game coins could be exchanged for one event point, so he exchanged for a total of over six thousand points.
Including his original points, and subtracting the 15,000 points of Honey Pot World, he only has 3,560 points left.
The Honey Pot World is a bead of solidified honey, the size of a grape, that looks like amber.
【Name: Honey Pot World】
[Type: Item]
[Quality: S?]
[Special Effect: Creates your own world; cannot be dropped; cannot be traded; unique]
Minimum usage requirement: Must be alive.
[Description: The world's size is 20 times the strength of its life force; it cannot grow further.]
[Note: The size of a world is determined by its strength, and its vitality by its purity. The choice is yours, champion: to exchange for skills to enhance your life force and expand the world's area, or to rely solely on yourself to enhance the world's vitality (Special tip for the Full Moon Event champion)]
The information in the notes was something Xiaoyue hadn't mentioned before.
They may not know, or more likely they are deliberately concealing it to increase the appeal of the honeypot world and make the battles between players more bloody.
"Isn't this like water?" Li Qianxia said. "When too much is mixed together, the quantity is too large, but it becomes a mess; when it's just water, it's just water. Even if it's ink, it's just ink, and no wine will get mixed in."
ahzww.
"That's roughly the idea," Li Changzhou mused.
He looked up and asked the two of them, "Which one do you think we should choose?"
The three's original plan was for Li Changzhou to plunder the life skills of a player similar to the Dragon Blood Tree, making the world as large as possible.
“I think vitality is more important,” Yang Qinglan said. “A dead world that needs to rely on the outside world is not a world at all, at least not for us.”
“Yes, that’s right!” Li Qianxia nodded as well.
She put down the watermelon rind, picked up a piece of cantaloupe stuck on a toothpick and ate it: "Actually, it doesn't need to be too big. The three of us don't need much space. The key is to be able to be self-sufficient."
Li Changzhou sighed: "If only we could conduct experiments to simulate it, and find a balance between vitality and size."
Unfortunately, they only had one chance, and the honeypot world was too precious, so they dared not act recklessly and could only choose the safest way.
"Shall I begin?" he said to the two of them.
"Wait a minute!" Li Qianxia finished eating the cantaloupe on her toothpick and called out to her brother, "Brother, have you been doing anything that drains your life force lately?"
"Something that depletes life force?" Li Changzhou and Yang Qinglan both began to ponder at the same time.
Does creating blood droplets consume life?
Does staying up late damage your health?
As the two were pondering this, they saw Li Qianxia with a serious expression, raising her hand and holding the microphone with her slender, fair hand.
"......"
Yang Qinglan turned her head away, silently picked up a boiled peanut, carefully peeled the shell, and slowly chewed it.
"This is serious business!" Li Qianxia also waited for them seriously.
"I think I'm in great shape right now." Li Changzhou wished he could tear his sister into strips of meat with his teeth.
The honey beads, the size of grapes, emitted countless golden rays from their holes, overshadowing even the glamorous lights of the KTV.
The bead shot into Li Changzhou's forehead with a whoosh.
His entire life force surged wildly towards his brow.
The power that had appeared in every corner of the body during the physical enhancement but had fallen dormant suddenly awakened again.
These vital energies, like a pot of water boiling over a raging fire, are cooking up a world of sweetness.
Soon, the life force was exhausted, the water temperature in the honeypot world stabilized, and the world inside had been formed.
With a thought, Li Changzhou and the three of them disappeared from the private room.
