The follow-up to OE that “we” are looking forward to (10)

[Autograph session mod: When the player hero and dragon appear at the same time, the coser autograph session will be automatically started. The queue of creatures will be random, the amount earned will be random, and you can experience the feeling of being a star in the game world.]

Jiang Yuanshi leaned in to look at the screen, with the expression of an old man on the subway looking at his phone.

Very niche mod.

How many weird things are pressed in this mission world?

Jiang Yuanshi's hand, which was holding the pen to write, was swollen into a ball, red and flashing. If he raised his little hand high, he could cosplay a traffic light on the spot.

"Perhaps colored lanterns would be more suitable. Your hands are too small." Z01 said as he applied healing herbs to Jiang Yuanshi.

Jiang Yuanshi looked at his hands that had turned green from being rubbed with herbs and nodded, "Indeed, red and green colored lights. By the way, are there any yellow ones? That way I can cosplay as a small red and green light."

Z01 took out a yellow fruit, green with yellow, and placed it in Xiaolong's hand.

The square returned to calm. Jiang Yuanshi, hiding in a crack between houses, looked out and asked, "Is this mechanism triggered every time you and I appear together? Then how about we go our separate ways?"

Z01 paused while applying the herbs and said calmly, "It's closing. Please wait."

?

Is it so easy to shut down?

Z01 replied, "Just switch to the settings page in the inventory." As he spoke, a panel popped up in front of Jiang Yuanshi. He scrolled down and saw the mod options at the bottom, which showed that the autograph session was closed, but there were no other mods. He asked, "Is this the only mod in this world?"

“No, it will appear in the settings column only after it is triggered.”

It turned out to be a random event.

"Okay, change hands." Jiang Yuanshi retracted his right hand and stretched out his equally swollen left hand to Z01. His right hand was diagnosed with tenosynovitis, and his left hand was squeezed flat and now became an oval.

Jiang Yuanshi silently watched Z01 apply the medicine to him. It was obvious that the medicine could be applied in one click in the game, but the other party acted just like a normal human being, cautious and methodical. His face still had a blank expression, and his armor was covered with words, so densely packed that it looked like he was under some kind of spell.

Jiang Yuanshi said, "Don't you want to wipe your armor?"

Z01: "Wipe it off, and the wishes will disappear, won't they?"

Jiang Yuanshi:?

Z01:?

The two looked at each other, and finally Jiang Yuanshi blinked and said, "Well, do we have enough money? Let's go buy some clothes."

A Z01 panel pops up, and the amount pops up above the head: 999999.

Just one dollar short of one hundred thousand.

Jiang Yuanshi remembered that renting a house in Wuxiu City cost 1,000 gold coins a month. If he wanted to buy a house, he would look at the house grade, which included simple, ordinary, above-ordinary, well-off, and wealthy.

However, if you buy a house, the cheapest one will cost 30,000. If you don’t stay for a long time, it is cheaper to rent a house. Together with the cost of renting the land, it will cost 2,000 gold coins a month.

Jiang Yuanshi and Z01 were huddled in a corner, settling accounts. Z01 spoke up, "Although we won't be living here long, buying a house comes with free land and a teleportation array between the house and the land. It's permanent, and won't be affected by future shopkeeper strikes. According to your settings, on strike days, the inn will go on strike, and anyone can enter. They might be thieves, but not your own home. Also, buying a house will grant you a residence permit, which will increase your NPC favorability when you talk to them, making it easier to find higher-paying jobs and increasing your salary. High favorability also gives you discounts on purchases."

It was clearly a game Jiang Yuanshi had made, but Z01's explanation was so well-reasoned that Jiang Yuanshi was stunned. Z01 was still describing the benefits of buying a house, but Jiang Yuanshi only asked in the middle, "Did you look up the guide?"

Z01 replied, "No, I just took a detailed look at your game and made a reasonable analysis. I have to say that your game is very detailed and worthy of analysis. If it were added to the system world game library, it would also be popular. However, I don't think the Lord God will pay you any copyright fees, so I don't recommend any cooperation here."

"……oh……"

Xiaolong opened his eyes wide and stared at the brave man who was calmly analyzing the situation while applying medicine.

"What do you think?"

"Hmm?" Jiang Yuanshi nodded after realizing what was happening. "Okay, let's buy it. But we don't have a lot of money, so we can buy a mid-range one at best. Upgrading a simple house to a regular one will cost about 5,000 more than buying a regular one directly, and so on."

"The geographical location is also different. We can go to the sales office first." Z01 applied medicine to Jiang Yuanshi's hand and held it in the palm of his hand. Just as he was about to leave, he felt his palm being poked. He looked down and saw that it was the host's tail.

During the book signing just now, Jiang Yuanshi, who didn't have enough hands, used his tail. He curled the tail around the pen and signed a lot of words. Now he could use it flexibly. He bent the tail and poked the palm of his hand and said, "Did you forget that you have to buy clothes first, or do you want to wear this?"

Z01: "After removing the armor, there is a starting set inside."

Jiang Yuanshi: "But if you don't change your clothes, you have to take a shower. Otherwise, if you stay in this place for more than a week, you'll start to stink."

Z01: .

Z01 followed the host's advice and went to the clothing store.

The manager of the clothing store, who was eating, put down his spoon when he saw the visitor, walked up to the counter and said, "Welcome, I'm Livers, the manager of the clothing store. Are you here to buy clothes?"

Z01 nodded.

Livers: "Are you buying it for yourself or your pet?"

Z01: "He's not a pet, he's mine..."

Jiang Yuanshi: "Buy it for him."

Z01 was interrupted by Jiang Yuanshi mid-sentence. Jiang Yuanshi, facing the other person's resentful gaze, repeated, "Buy it for him."

Livers looked back and forth and replied, "Okay, does the guest need an introduction? If not, you can choose on your own."

Z01: "No need, do it yourself."

"Okay, no problem. Please help yourself and pay at the counter."

Z01 and Jiang Yuanshi came to the clothes rack and the inventory popped up automatically. There were many clothes, both for humans and monsters.

Jiang Yuanshi said, "You choose for yourself."

Z01 chose a casual-looking top and pants, red on top and green on the bottom, with a feather cape on his shoulders, looking like the high priest of a village.

Jiang Yuanshi was speechless and said, "Are you serious? Wear this."

Z01 lowered his head and looked at Jiang Yuanshi, seemingly not noticing anything wrong. Jiang Yuanshi: "..."

Although I want to respect personal preferences, Z01's choice is not very friendly to Jiang Yuanshi's eyes.

Z01: "Perhaps you come, I don't understand human aesthetics."

"So how did you pick those system skins?" Jiang Yuanshi started swiping the screen speechlessly. His short fingers made it difficult, so Z01 took the initiative to swipe the screen for him and replied, "This is the original skin."

Jiang Yuanshi looked up, glanced at Z01, and said, "What about your human skin?"

Z01: "I don't know. It's like this after I click it. It comes with it."

Jiang Yuanshi opened his mouth, not knowing where to start complaining, so he turned around and decided to choose clothes.

After asking many times and checking Z01's preferences, Jiang Yuanshi finally chose a daily outfit.

You can try on clothes. Z01 came out of the cloakroom wearing a white top, black pants, black Martin boots, and a waist chain.

I don't know why, but the more I look at it, the more familiar it looks.

Jiang Yuanshi suddenly realized, isn't this what this guy usually wears?

I really love work clothes no matter where I am.

Jiang Yuan was sitting on the sofa and was still admiring the other person's love for work when he suddenly felt something on his neck. He tried to lower his head, but he couldn't see anything and it felt cold.

"What did you put on me?"

Z01 stared silently, then took a photo and brought it to the mirror. The little orange dragon had a sparkling necklace around its neck.

Because of the setting that the mini dragon loves sparkles, Jiang Yuanshi couldn't help but exclaim "Wow" and swung his tail.

Z01: "What do you think?"

Jiang Yuanshi turned around on the spot, then made a 180-degree turn and said, "It's okay, I don't really need it."

Z01:?

The dragon's tail swept over his palms, making them hot.

I obviously like it, why?

Z01 looked at the duplicity little dragon, and suddenly understood something. He opened the item bar and saw the price was 21,000 gold coins.

Oh, I see.

"You think it's too expensive?"

"…If you know it, don't say it."

"OK."

After that, Z01 held Jiang Yuanshi and went to the counter to pay. Xiaolong's arms were too short to reach the back of his neck to touch the buckle, so he said, "Z01, I haven't taken it off yet."

Z01: "That's good."

Jiang Yuanshi: “?”

Z01 came to the counter and said, "Boss, check out."

Livs: "Six pieces in total, one set of human daily clothes, five sets of monster costumes, a total of 100,000. Are you sure?"

A confirmation button popped up in front of Z01, and before Jiang Yuanshi could react, the other party clicked confirm.

Where did so much money come from? Does Z01 not recognize money? After all, the system has no concept of consumption. When Jiang Yuan was worrying about the follow-up, Z01's inventory suddenly popped up in front of him, and the amount above his head was: 9999999.

It's so strange, there's no money missing. Something's wrong. Let me take another look.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t look at it, but when you do, you’ll be shocked. Why is there an extra 9?

Jiang Yuanshi looked up at Z01 in confusion, and Z01 blinked at him honestly.

"Thank you for your review! Welcome to come again. We will release more costumes in the future. You can bring your pet along."

"Okay," Z01 said as he took out a scroll, unfolded it, and showed it to the shopkeeper, "But he's not my pet, he's my partner."

The clueless store manager apologized profusely and offered them a 10% discount. After leaving the store, Jiang Yuanshi crossed his arms speechlessly, "I remember someone just vowing to buy a house?"

Z01: "Yes, we will go to the property sales office next."

Jiang Yuanshi: "But you've spent all the money!"

Z01: "But I added some more money."

Jiang Yuanshi was about to say this: "Did you enable some mod? Why didn't you tell me earlier if you could enable it? I was almost scared to death. I thought we were going to be blacklisted and forced to do hard labor."

Z01: "Sorry, it's an emergency."

Jiang Yuanshi wanted to know what the emergency method was, and then he listened to Z01 slowly say: "I just went back to the system office to get some salary, which can be put into this world to exchange for gold coins. The exchange rate here is one to one, which is very cost-effective."

Jiang Yuanshi pointed at the extra 9 on the screen and said, "You suddenly gained almost a million?"

Z01 was puzzled: "It's just a small salary."

That's a little better. Jiang Yuanshi was speechless: "But you can't spend it recklessly. Although you do have a lot of money, if you spend it like this, it will run out sooner or later."

Z01 nodded. "You make a lot of sense. Most of my salary is managed by the Lord God. I'll go back and apply for it back soon. That way, I won't be able to spend it all."

Is this right? A question mark popped up above Jiang Yuanshi's head: "How much have you saved?"

Z01: "Not much, probably just a few hundred million. I haven't calculated it specifically, so I'm sorry."

“…………”What a rich system.

If I remember correctly, Z01's salary is actually his willpower. Jiang Yuanshi said numbly, "With so much willpower, why not give me some? That way, I can complete the mission without even having to do anything."

Z01 is really brave to give: "Do you want it?"

Jiang Yuanshi waved his hands repeatedly: "No, I don't want it. That's your money. Also, don't spend so much on decorations next time. You won't be able to use them anyway."

"But you look great in it, and my salary is wasted if I don't use it. After calculating, I can't spend it even if I buy everything in the entire game world."

It’s great to be rich. Jiang Yuanshi curled his lips and said, “When did you learn to be so Versailles?”

Z01: "I don't understand. I just wanted to say that we have plenty of money right now, so you can buy whatever you like. If you feel guilty about it, I can do it for you. You once asked me what I meant by not spending the money, and now I've found the meaning of making money and spending it. I hope you're happy."

“…”

The system's words were always unpredictable. The more sincere the words were, the more Jiang Yuanshi felt helpless. But Z01 said, "Besides the relationship of pursuing and being pursued, I want to ask if you can be my first friend?"

Jiang Yuanshi: "...This is fine."

"That's great. I like spending money on my friends." Z01 lashed out. Anyway, the other party was determined to hand over his salary to Jiang Yuanshi. Jiang Yuanshi sighed and said, "Okay, whatever you want. Just don't regret it. Thank you."

Z01: "No, so now we can buy the most expensive house."

Indeed, it was enough to buy several houses, but Jiang Yuanshi still poked Z01 a few times and said, "Spend rationally! Spend moderately! There are only two of us, why do we need so many rooms? Can we clean them all?"

Z01: "So you want to sleep in the same room with me?"

Jiang Yuanshi:?

I really don’t understand the thought process of non-human creatures. Why do you seem like a love-brained person?

Jiang Yuanshi decided to educate Z01 about the correct concepts of consumption and love. Z01 held Xiaolong in his arms and listened attentively while walking, but as he listened, Jiang Yuanshi's words suddenly stopped.

Z01:?

When Z01 discovered Jiang Yuan, his gaze was tilted to the left and staring straight ahead. Z01 looked in the direction the host tilted his head. It was an ordinary human. The only eye-catching thing was the pendant on his forehead. The bright brilliance of the jewelry attracted Xiaolong's attention.

Z01: “…………”

He turned and walked away, and Xiaolong's neck even twisted like a camera.

[Beep—Consumption successful, amount*******]

The glittering light disappeared from his sight. When Jiang Yuanshi came to his senses and had not yet had time to feel disappointed, the glittering light appeared closer in front of him.

The pendant carved from red diamonds is dazzling.

But the location...

Xiaolong flapped his wings and flew over, circled around and said, "Z01, why do you have an extra earring?"

As he spoke, he touched it again and again, unable to let it go.

Z01: (I_I)

Just bought.
