At noon, a game announcement suddenly sounded:
Hello, survivors!
[Given the generally low level of coziness in survivors' homes, a limited-time event has been launched. Completing the event will give you a chance to obtain items that can improve home coziness.]
However, this mission is risky, and there will be penalties for failure. Survivors are advised to decide whether to accept this time-limited mission based on their own circumstances.
Finally, a generous prize awaits you! Wishing you all the best!
After saying this, the system disappeared, and the timed tasks were refreshed.
The chat channel is getting lively:
"Great! I was just worried about not being able to get anything to increase the coziness level, and the system issued a task. It's a real lifesaver!"
"Time-limited mission? Are the missions the same for everyone?"
"I only care about what the punishment will be if I fail to complete the task."
"My quest has been refreshed! It actually requires me to catch 100 fish within three hours! The reward is just two broken flowerpots that increase coziness by 1 point... My angler level is only 2, and my catch rate is only 1%! And the penalty for failing the quest is to have bad luck for the next day! Is this some kind of joke? If you don't want me to do the quest, you can just say so!"
"Mine is even more outrageous! It makes me cook 30 different dishes in one hour! The reward items only increase warmth by 5 points! My inventory is full of bread and cakes, where am I supposed to get ingredients?"
"Who among you is as weird as me? I need to find 100 new socks in five hours! You read that right, I need to find socks, and they have to be new! I've never even seen socks before, okay? The socks I was wearing when I first arrived were so worn out my toes were showing!"
"Upstairs, to be honest, your task isn't difficult, it's just a bit odd."
"You say this isn't difficult? Then tell me what you mean by difficult?"
"It's really not difficult. You can buy it in the online store. Just search for Jiang Mingze, he'll definitely sell it there!"
"Haha, is my task the only one that's easy? I need to add 30 friends within an hour! The reward of a potted plant can increase coziness by 10 points! Hahaha, so easy! I'm definitely taking this task!"
"A task this easy? I'm jealous! Don't add me as a friend, I won't accept!"
"Don't add me, I won't agree!"
"Disagree +1!"
"I disagree with adding it!"
"Please... big brothers and sisters, have mercy and let me finish this task, okay? I was wrong, I'll never be so cocky again..."
"..."
Luo Xinglan is reviewing her mission.
[Limited-time mission: Open ten gold chests within one hour. Mission reward: 5 courtyard decorative lights. Penalty for failure: Raft area reduced by one-fifth! Accept mission?]
Luo Xinglan clicked to view the courtyard decorative lights and found one that could increase the coziness level by 20, rewarding her with 5 lights at once!
Judging from this, the reward seems pretty good, and this task should be considered quite difficult.
But...
Luo Xinglan glanced at the mountain of boxes piled up in the pavilion; this task was far too easy for her.
Click "Accept Task".
[Time-limited mission accepted successfully. Please complete the mission within the specified time, or you will be penalized!]
Luo Xinglan arrived at the pavilion, first bought 20 pieces of refined gold from the shop, made 20 gold keys, and then picked out ten gold chests to open.
Luo Xinglan didn't even look at the contents of the box; she was too busy opening it to look at what was inside.
When she opened the tenth gold chest, a notification sounded:
Congratulations on completing the time-limited task! Your reward has been issued; please check it promptly!
Just as Luo Xinglan was about to take out the streetlight, the notification sounded again:
[Your excellent and rapid completion of the task has triggered a special mission! This special mission cannot be abandoned; please check it promptly!]
Luo Xinglan paused.
What the hell?
What we're saying is, completing a task too quickly isn't necessarily a good thing.
Triggering a special mission is one thing, but why can't we just give up?
Hopefully, it's not some overly difficult task.
Luo Xinglan immediately went to check.
[Special Mission: Find a special monster within one day and raise its affinity to 10! Mission Reward: Constant Temperature Bead Upgrade Card x1! Failure Penalty: All attributes reduced by 50%! Mission Time Remaining: 23:59.]
Is the task reward a Constant Temperature Bead Upgrade Card?
The tools used to upgrade the temperature-regulating bead are exactly what she needs.
But what the heck is this mission?
You need to increase your affinity with a special monster after finding it?
Not to mention that the only special monsters she's encountered so far are Becky and the Good and Evil Messenger, she has no idea where to begin...
Monsters can actually have a favorability rating?
Luo Xinglan was somewhat confused.
But the mission cannot be abandoned, and the punishment is too severe.
But how is she supposed to find the special monster?
How about Becky?
Luo Xinglan asked the frog, "Little one, have you seen Becky?"
Frog: "No, Becky went out!"
Luo Xinglan was a little disappointed: "Oh, did he say when he'd be back?"
The little frog opened its big eyes, thought for a moment, and said, "It seems like they didn't say."
Luo Xinglan was at her wit's end.
Becky knows a lot and was hoping to find a breakthrough by talking to him, but she didn't expect him to be away at the moment.
Having no other option, Luo Xinglan opened the world chat channel to see if she could find any useful information.
"Holy crap, I was doing a mission and the messengers of good and evil came to my house! How scary! I'm too scared to go out!"
"The last one visited by the messenger of good and evil is gone. Good luck to you!"
"By the way, are there any people in our district who have escaped from the clutches of the Good and Evil Messengers?"
"Of course! Luo Xinglan!"
"Looking at it this way, it seems like Becky has a better temper; at least it won't kill anyone."
"Stop talking! Becky's at my house, and her crying is driving me crazy. I just want to jump into the sea and die!"
Luo Xinglan's eyes flickered as she looked at what the person named "Li Lin" was saying.
Did Becky go to his house?
She quickly messaged Li Lin privately: "You said Becky is at your house? Is that true?"
Li Lin: "Holy crap! You're Luo Xinglan! It's really you, right? You're not kidding me, are you? It really is Luo Xinglan! I'm so proud of myself, I've met the real Luo Xinglan! Boss, I'm your biggest fan, can I have an autographed photo?"
Luo Xinglan was speechless.
No, wasn't he just thinking of jumping into the sea?
Have you caught up with a star again in the blink of an eye?
Luo Xinglan was speechless for a while before saying, "I know what Becky's wish is. I can tell you, but in exchange, you have to do me a favor. Do you agree?"
Li Lin hurriedly said, "Sure, sure! Just tell me, boss. Even if you don't tell me Becky's wish, I'm still willing to help you! It would be my greatest honor to be able to help you!"
