Chapter 1

Today is Tuesday, the ninth day of the new season of the PUBG New Map holographic online game and the second day of the new dungeon opening.

The game time is synchronized with the real time. It is now around two o'clock in the morning. The scenery around Qiuyue Lake is charming. The lake reflects the clear and bright moon, and ripples in the breeze.

Sophia put all the herbs around Qiuyue Lake into a bag and found a damp stone to sit on.

The stones by the river were polished by the trickling water and became rounded. Her slender white feet felt very comfortable and cool when she stepped on them . After looking at the rolling mountains in the distance for a while, Sophia felt very bored in such an ink-like fairyland map.

She was so bored that she walked through the three newly opened maps on foot and almost plundered all the herbs in the three maps. She did not even wait for the news that the guild copy had been cleared.

At the beginning of the new season, most PVE players were trying their best to rush into the new dungeon. Normally, the pioneering team could basically complete the dungeon on the first day, but this time, no one knew what went wrong, and there has been no good news until now, and the world channel was also deserted.

The guild chat channel has exploded.

[Guild] Toby: This dungeon is simply not for humans to conquer. We have been fighting for sixteen hours and still cannot defeat the final boss. Ophelia, what is the current situation of your team ? Haven’t you defeated it either?

[Guild] Ophelia: Yeah, the whole team was wiped out the whole night. I suspect there's a bug. It doesn't make sense for the boss to go into a rampage state as soon as his health drops to 50% .

[Gang] Byron: I just asked other gangs, and it’s basically the same situation.

[Guild] Sword Dance Under the Moon: So what do they say? Don’t we have any experience? Should we just not fight this boss?

[Gang] Byron: They asked me why we didn’t disband yet. Other groups stopped playing in the afternoon.

[Guild] Sword Dance Under the Moon: ...

[Gang] Ophelia: ...

[Guild] Baron: ...

The gang members were silent for a long while, and then someone asked a question tremblingly.

[Guild] Green: So is there really a bug with this boss? Is it the same on other servers? Why didn’t anyone tell us?

[Gang] Toby: Maybe it's because our gang leader is stupid.

The gang leader, who was personally attacked by his own wife, fell into a long silence.

[Guild] Geraldine: I just checked the forum and found that this situation is happening in all regions and servers. The official blog of the game has not responded yet, but anyone with a brain knows that we should disband. Why are you guys still hanging out in the dungeon in the middle of the night? Are you afraid that the boss will be lonely and want to chat and play with him?

As the deputy leader of the gang, Geraldine has more aura than the leader, Byron. When he is giving a speech, no one in the gang dares to even breathe.

[Gang] Toby: Chacha, you are finally here...

[Guild] Byron: Okay, okay, this is my fault, I'm sorry everyone, let's disband today, and we'll see how things go in a few days and decide whether to continue. I'll mail 100,000 gold to each of you as compensation. Geraldine, you're tired too, why don't you quit the game and take a rest.

[Gang] Geraldine: I just came online, why would I go offline? Tell me about that thing you promised our Didi, you wouldn't have let them wait until now.

【Gang】Byron: ! ! I almost forgot about this! I'll go chat with her right away !

[Gang] It’s Ruanruan: What’s the matter?

[Guild] Byron: This new dungeon can produce the Drunken Immortal Grass that she wants, but the dungeon rules state that only after defeating the third boss in the dungeon, Medicine Fairy Boy, can you have the permission to dig herbs, so Didi and I have agreed that after we have cleared all five bosses in this dungeon, we will add her to the team, let her synchronize the dungeon progress and then dig herbs.

They thought that just like every season before, it would only take three hours to complete the game, but who would have thought that it would take them sixteen hours to fight the boss this time!

After hearing the explanation, Ruanruan stopped talking, but Geraldine almost went berserk.

[Guild] Geraldine: I was wondering why Didi was still online when I logged in! You're done with school, why don't you go find her right away? Clear the team and let her go in and dig up the medicine .

[Gang] It’s Ruanruan: How can you let people wait for so long? It’s already so late.

[Gang] Byron: Tat, I was wrong. I didn’t know she would wait until now. There were so many things to do just now that I was so busy that I forgot about it.

[Gang] Geraldine: ※※※! Selling ※※※ cute! Still chatting!

Sophia was not in the habit of speaking in the gang, so she did not say anything when she saw this string of messages.

She likes to play games alone, is introverted and not very sociable. The reason she joined the gang was because Geraldine, the deputy gang leader, kept trying to please her.

After a while, the gang leader's private message came.

[Secret chat] Byron: I'm sorry, I was really busy and forgot. I didn't expect you to wait until now. We spent more than ten hours in Laowu and still didn't get through. The group just broke up, and you were still digging for herbs. Shall I invite you to join the team now?

Didi replied: Okay, thank you, leader.

After thinking about her best friend who was still furious, after she joined the gang leader's team, she also sent a secret message to Geraldine : The new season has just started, and a lot of new herbs and prescriptions have been released. I have nothing to do and I just want to take it easy. Collect , not waiting for the gang's copy group.

Geraldine, who was furious, instantly transformed into a gentle sweetheart: Oh my dear Didi, I just feel sorry for you. Do you really want to go digging at this late hour? Why don't you come back during the day tomorrow?

Didi: The dungeon herbal medicine is refreshed at six o'clock every morning. If I go there at dawn, I will miss one copy.

Geraldine: [Shocked] You actually know all this! I thought herbs and dungeons were refreshed once a week !

After just a few words, Geraldine couldn't resist the sleepiness and went offline to sleep, but the gang leader and his wife were still there.

Didi found the gray entrance to the copy. The moment she entered, the world in front of her turned gray, and then a line of huge ink fonts appeared in front of her.

Bi Xue Yan Qing Palace is the name of the copy.

The next moment, he successfully entered the copy world.

This is a huge underground palace. In the game plot, it is the place where the evil forces imprison decent people. There are five large secret cells in the palace. What players need to do when entering the copy is to defeat the five bosses and release the five top masters imprisoned in the secret cells.

The new PUBG map should be considered a martial arts game. Although it has become less and less martial arts-like in the past two years, the scenery and character modeling are still quite beautiful. After entering the dungeon and syncing the progress, Didi saw two people standing at the gate of the palace.

One is a handsome swordsman in white, the other is a gentle girl holding a zither. On both sides of the red-painted palace gate are peach trees with falling petals. The gang leader and his wife are now affectionate and loving under the peach trees .

When Didi came closer, they both realized it and separated a little, but their hands were still tightly clasped.

Toby smiled shyly, and said in a gentle voice: I've kept you waiting for so long. Has the progress been synchronized?

Since we can all talk face to face, of course it’s better to synchronize.

Didi nodded: Don't worry about me, just log off now.

The voices and appearances in the game are different. In this game, you can even choose the gender you want, but there is no option to change the voice, so most people use their original selves.

a small number of contestants who use voice changers .

The sound of Didi can be said to be the authentic voice of a goddess without any dilution. Everyone who hears her voice, regardless of gender, age or status, will subconsciously have their hearts tremble.

Unlike the sounds that are deliberately produced, her voice is very natural, with the tenderness unique to a young girl, and a little bit of the coldness that only a mature woman can have. When it reaches people's ears, the sound seems to scrape the listener's eardrum and slide around, which is more attractive than musical instruments with excellent sound quality.

Although it was not the first time she heard Didi speak, Toby was still stunned for a few seconds, just like the dozens of times before. After she came to her senses, she replayed the other person's voice in her mind several times, and then she sighed quietly, saying that comparison is really the thief of anger.

Byron: Then let's stop playing the game and go to bed. If you have any questions, you can ask me.

It was just digging some herbs, so there wouldn't be any problems. However, Didi knew that the other party was just being polite, so he smiled and said yes.

Didi's character is a nurse, a nurse who is not interested in fighting with the world. She has almost no damage skills. After entering the dungeon, in order to avoid being pinned to the ground and beaten by the monsters, she can only choose to stay away from them.

Fortunately, the herbs she needed were basically not near the monsters. She climbed up the wall and the roof to avoid the monsters' sight, and Didi climbed along the top of the palace to the back mountain.

The mountain is not high or big, and it looks green from a distance.

Before coming here, Didi went to the official website to check the information about Zuixiancao. When he saw the light yellow grass with a faint glow, his eyes lit up.

Drunken Immortal Grass can be used to make Drunken Immortal Pills. Drunken Immortal Pills are of little use to other professions, but they are magical pills for nurses. After taking them, the healing amount will be tripled. They can be used in all scenes in the game, including the arena.

The recipe for Zuixian Pills was released last season. It was dropped from the level 20 Mitian Cave . The drop rate is very low , said to be only 0.01%.

At that time, everyone knew that there was no such thing as Drunken Immortal Grass in the game, and no one would go to Mitian Cave repeatedly to find the recipe for Drunken Immortal Pills .

Sophia suspected that all the luck she had gained from playing games had been used on this prescription.

got it by accident when she entered Mi Tian Cave to kill monsters during the process of leveling up. She was completely unprepared and even almost threw it away because she felt it took up too much space in her backpack.

Who would have thought that after this season started, Drunken Immortal Grass appeared, but Mitian Cave was closed.

In the face of questions and protests from players, the game official responded humorously: The key to playing games is to take them by surprise.

It is conceivable that there are only a handful of players who have the prescription and can make Zuixian Pills. When Zuixian Pills come out, no matter how high the market price is, they will be snapped up by players.

Didi spent nearly two hours gathering all the herbs near the first four bosses. The herb basket was bulging, and she felt very accomplished.

The third boss, Medicine Fairy Tong, is a little boy less than ten years old. He is currently defeated, so he cannot attack people. When he saw Didi passing by with herbs in his hand, he stamped his feet in anger and burst into tears. Fall down.

My herbal medicine, my herbal medicine, you stinky knights are just trying to steal my treasure, woo woo woo woo !

The voice was miserable, and Didi was crying with tears and snot. If Didi hadn't known that the other party was an NPC and only said these few words to him, he might have returned the herbs out of excessive shame .

But now, she would just put on a cold and heartless face and deliberately walk a few more times in front of him while holding the basket of herbs .

She is so bad.

When she arrived at the door of the secret cell where the fifth boss was, she had a great harvest and the herb basket was almost full. Herbs cannot be put directly into the backpack, but there was still half a mountain of herbs waiting for her ahead. Didi was unwilling to leave like this.

In order to make medicine more convenient, Sophia bought a small medicine mortar in the main city that could be carried with her. Seeing that it was still early, she planned to find a step to sit down and make some free time .

The path is winding and overgrown with weeds. The decayed wooden door is right in front of you. It is half open. It seems that there is a new world hidden inside the door. Even the air has a strange and gloomy color. Sophia can be seen from a distance. Feel the cold and terrifying aura coming from inside the door.

When you walk in, you can see the new boss sitting in front of the courtyard , Joel, who is frightened by all PUBG new map pve players.

For some reason, Sophia suddenly wanted to go in and take a look. With this thought in mind, she also walked to the door.

Chapter 2

She saw the boss mentioned in the rumors.

I don’t know if it’s because of a bug, but his health is only 50, and it doesn’t recover to full health when no one attacks like other bosses.

The courtyard was simply decorated, with green grass heads poking out from the cracks in the floor. In the middle was a stained round stone table, and the boss was sitting in front of the table, drinking wine with an expressionless face.

The young man had long hair like ink, eyes like lacquer, skin as white as cream , and was tall and thin. His skin looked even whiter against the backdrop of his black clothes and black hair.

He was wearing a black robe with wide sleeves, the fabric of which was embroidered with gorgeous patterns in gold thread. He looked very elegant, but even more elegant than his temperament was his face.

Joel has a face that shows that the game company has paid a lot of money to art and modeling.

The day and night in the copy were not synchronized with those outside, so Sophia could clearly see the red setting sun shining through the wooden roof. The color seemed to dye the air red, and sprinkled gently and generously on the man's shoulders.

Didi suspected that there was a light called appearance shining in front of her eyes, and she subconsciously stretched out her hand to block it.

I whispered in my heart: This is so beautiful...

She had always known that the characters in this game were good-looking, but she had never imagined that there could be someone so good-looking, and this was just an NPC .

there was no beauty-chasing element in her personality, acted very much like a beauty-chasing person . She glanced at her boss who was drinking quietly with his eyes lowered , then quietly went into the courtyard holding her herbal basket and mortar and found a place to sit down.

These bosses have an active attack range. As long as you don't enter their attack range, you won't be hit.

Didi sat on the steps behind Joel. It is very simple to pound medicine in the game. Put the mortar on the herb basket, and a prompt box will appear in front of the player asking whether to make xx medicine. You can also enter a value on the right side of the prompt box .

Didi entered the maximum value, and Yaojiu began to make Zuixian Pills. The number of herbs in the herb basket slowly decreased, and the pattern of Zuixian Pills appeared in the backpack .

The steps were bumpy and cold, and she couldn't sit still for a while.

There was a piece of Drunken Grass growing not far to the right side of the stone table. Because it did not grow in a fixed growth area, the amount of these herbs was not large, and she could hold it back with both hands.

After noticing this piece of grass, Didi immediately stood up, deliberately staying away from the boss's active attack range, and carefully walked back after picking all the nectar grass on the courtyard land.

Pills in her backpack . In a short time, she had reached thirty pills.

When Didi saw Zuixian Pills for the first time, she was very curious. She also wanted to know whether this medicine was really as described in the introduction, and could directly triple the healer's treatment amount.

The newly picked Drunken Immortal Grass was put into the herb basket. After waiting for a while, half of the Drunken Immortal Grass was left, and the number of Drunken Immortal Pills became fifty.

Sophia thought for a while and decided to use a Drunken Immortal Pill directly to see if it was really that effective.

As soon as his finger touched the grid of Zuixian Pills, a prompt popped up in front of him, and Didi reflexively chose Yes.

The next second, a gentle reminder sounded: The player has chosen to use fifty Drunken Immortal Pills immediately to clear the [Rampage] state of the current [boss] Joel. Congratulations to the player Jiaodi for triggering the current copy's hidden mission [The Truth Hidden in the Drunken Immortal Pills]. The player can choose whether to accept the mission within ten seconds.

Didi's expression was dull for a moment.

Could it be that the Drunken Immortal Pill is the key to defeating Joel?

Good dog game planner, no wonder players scold him every day...

A few seconds after accepting the mission, fifty Zuixian Pills appeared neatly in the medicine mortar. These reappeared pills became mission props. Players could not use them for themselves or trade them to other players. They could only It can be used by specified objects at specified places and times .

The player has accepted the hidden mission [The True Seal Hidden in the Zuixian Pill]. Players are also requested to follow the mission instructions to complete the current mission.

The tasks in the game are quite simple, and there are prompts for each step. Sophia follows the prompts to grind the medicine in the medicine mortar into dregs, then pour clean water into it, and stir the dregs into a paste.

Sofia glanced at it, then looked at it again, and wrinkled her nose in hindsight.

The next task appears: Please apply the Drunken Immortal Pills evenly on Joel's wound.

After the game prompt sound disappeared, a floating text description appeared on Joel's body: Joel, feared by everyone in the martial arts world, had gone astray in his martial arts training and could only rely on the Drunken Immortal Pill to calm his restlessness. In this world, only the Medicine Fairy Child of the Bixueyan Palace could grow the Drunken Immortal Grass...

Sophia carried the medicine in the mortar and walked towards Joel in front of the round table. After accepting the task, he really stopped attacking people actively.

However, he had been sitting there drinking for such a long time, with no expression on his face, and it was hard to tell that he was running wild at all.

There was a chair opposite him, and Sophia sat opposite him holding the mortar.

This is the bad thing about holographic games. There's such a big person right in front of you, with black wing-like eyelashes slightly drooping, bony hands holding the wine glass, and slowly pouring the wine into his mouth. He doesn't look like an NPC at all .

Sophia looked at Joel expressionlessly, then poked the sticky medicine in the mortar twice with the pestle . The medicine smelled bad and looked ugly. If she smeared it on his face ... it felt like he would become even more violent .

But fortunately, he is just an NPC in the game and should not have too many thoughts. Didi thought so, and moved closer to him with the medicine mortar. He sat very close to him and applied the medicine directly to the scar on the back of his hand.

Joel showed no reaction when the medicine was applied.

After making sure that the other party would not attack her, Sophia became bolder and stood up to his side.

Unlike players, NPCs have no body temperature, so the back of his hand is cold, which is very comfortable to touch. Sophia stood behind him, lifted his hair, and began to apply it on his neck.

This game is quite humane. The wounds are not in strange places, and there are hints at the places where there are scars, so there is no need to remove clothes to look for them.

Although she knew that this was an NPC , Sophia still felt inexplicably nervous. She was an autistic player both in reality and in games. Not to mention male friends, she even had few female friends.

This is the first time I’ve applied medicine to someone like this.

His neck was also beautiful, white and delicate, clean and slender, with scattered black hair and white skin in sharp contrast. Sophia always felt that she was doing something shameful. After painting her neck, her face was flushed.

She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she always felt that when the boss was applying the medicine, he paused drinking several times.

Fortunately, this is just a mindless NPC , she comforted herself for the ten thousandth time.

After finally smearing it, Sophia heard the prompt sound of mission completion: Congratulations to the player for completing the mission [The True Seal Hidden in the Drunken Immortal Pill], and received the mission reward: Drunk Immortal Pill x50, Drunken Immortal Grass x50, and gold coins x500.

Sophia was silent for a while, thinking that it seemed not bad. If that was the case, she would be willing to come and apply medicine to the boss every day.

Looking at Joel again, the irritable state above his head has indeed disappeared, but it is obvious that Sofia cannot kill him alone. All she can do now is watch the boss gradually return to full health .

Is this considered a path exploration? With this thought in mind, she stopped worrying about this issue and planned to tell Geraldine about it later when she went offline.

Seeing that the time for refreshing herbs was about to come, Didi did not delay any longer. He wiped his hands with clean water and planned to pack up and continue his unfinished task of collecting herbs.

I glanced and unexpectedly discovered that the boss had stopped drinking at some point.

A wine glass made of white jade stood alone on the table.

Since the rampage state is gone, you don’t drink anymore?

As Didi thought about this, she watched her boss, who was immersed in his own world the last second, suddenly looked up at her without any warning for some reason.

Their eyes met, and his were like cold water, without any emotion mixed in them.

The air stagnated for three full seconds.

Sofia suspected that she was frightened. Her heart beat suddenly and she subconsciously took a step back.

The boss glanced at him, then looked away, lowered his head and continued to drink as if no one else was watching, as if the exchange of glances just now was just her illusion.

the wine in the glass can never be finished.

Didi packed up her things and put them back in her backpack. When she left the courtyard, she silently asked herself why she was scared by an NPC .

She picked the remaining herbs within half an hour, made the remaining drunken fairy pills into drunken fairy pills, and went to the courier to mail the pills to Geraldine before going offline.

When I left the game warehouse, it was completely bright outside .

Sophia cleaned out the game warehouse and sent another message to Geraldine, telling her what she found in the copy today, and also told her about mailing the pills.

There are a total of one hundred and fifty pills, and there are exactly three gang groups, which is enough to clear the dungeon.

After solving this, she went to the bathroom and took a shower before returning to bed and starting to sleep.

It was already two o'clock in the afternoon when she opened her eyes. Sophia touched her phone and saw a lot of unread messages as soon as she opened it .

Didi was lying on the bed in the shape of big letters. After waking up, she felt very comfortable. She didn't want to deal with work for the time being, so she ignored the reminder messages from the comic editor and scrolled down one by one from the bottom .

The top contact is Yuexia Wujian, and the first message was sent at eight o'clock in the morning: Didi, do you want to make a copy? The official dungeon guide has been given out today . I spent money to find 20 people who are on the top 50 pve list, and I am going to pass this game in one go. Do you want to come?

The second message was at 8:30: As long as you can lie down, you don’t need to hit me.

The third message is 8:40 : I will take you through the entire journey.

chapter 3

Maybe it’s because I haven’t received a reply. The next one was sent at 12 noon: Forget it if you don’t come.

Sophia stared at the phone screen for two minutes, gave up on communicating with him, exited the Yuexia Sword Dance chat box, and looked at the list below.

Except for the transfer and receipt messages from the female tenant, most of the other messages were inquiries from gang members, many of whom were asking her for Zuixian Pills.

There are no secrets in the gang. Many people knew that she dug up the drunken fairy grass to make drunken fairy pills.

Sofia sat up, opened her eyes slightly, and replied one by one.

Geraldine hadn't replied to her at this time and didn't know where he was. Halfway through replying to the message , Sophia found that someone in the gang group was trapping her.

Lin Xianer: Didi, are you awake? Can you come to the game and trade Zuixianwan to me now ? Yuexia Wujian has been waiting for you for a long time.

Didi: I mailed the Zuixian Pill to Geraldine, but she hasn’t replied to me yet.

Lin Xian'er: Then can you call her and urge her to go online quickly? We are in a hurry here , and there is no place to buy the Drunken Immortal Pill, so we can only ask you for it... You really stayed in the game for so long yesterday, don't you know that the Drunken Immortal Pill is a prop that can be used to pass the game? Why did you mail all of them to Geraldine, making so many people wait for you now ?

Didi looked at it for a while and typed slowly: Then you continue to wait.

After sending this message, the guild group fell silent.

She should be anxious, but the other party had no obligation to give her the Drunken Immortal Pills for free. Lin Xian'er was not afraid of offending others by speaking in this manner.

However, in the eyes of most people in the gang, Didi is a taciturn girl who rarely communicates with others, let alone speak with such an attitude.

It’s Ruanruan: Okay, okay, Geraldine may be busy with something, just wait for her to play the game, don’t make any noise now.

Lin Xian'er: Ruanruan, what are you saying? Yuexiajianwu spent so much money to book a tour for you, but it has been delayed until now. If you wait for other groups to clear the level first, you may not get the good stuff.

According to the rules of the game, the first group to clear the dungeon in the whole server will 100% drop the best equipment or rare props.

It’s Ruanruan: It’s okay, the twenty strongest PVE players in the server are all in our group. Even if other groups have Zuixianwan, they may not be able to clear the level so quickly.

It’s a cute little newbie: Wow, Sword Dancer under the Moon is indeed a rich man. I heard that the people on the top 50 list charge hourly rates. It costs a lot of money to hire those big guys, right?

Sword Dance under the Moon: Actually, I don’t have much money, so I just have fun.

Lin Xianer: Yes, compared to the cost of the tour, these are really nothing. Yuexia Boss not only has to pay hourly wages to those bosses, but also takes pictures of everything dropped by the boss throughout the process for Ruianruan.

At the beginning of the game, everything in the dungeon was expensive, easily costing thousands. Even the best items, such as mysterious crystals and special costumes, might cost tens of thousands.

When the crowd came here, many people from the gang stuck their heads out to join in the fun.

Green: Rich man, give me a hug, and I can play tricks for you.

Broken jade and peace: Rich man, hug me, I have all the career you want.

Your daughter-in-law is awesome: Rich people eventually get married, Brickman saw it with his own eyes.

Toby: This is someone else’s object, and you can’t envy it.

Byron: ...Be good, don’t envy me.

It’s Ruanruan: I don’t have that kind of relationship with Yuexia Wujian. Don’t talk nonsense. Didi might be unhappy when she sees it later.

The gang fell silent again.

Didi was not looking at the screen. She had just woken up not long ago. She had not eaten for most of the day and was already starving. She was washing and tidying up in the bathroom.

After lunch, as usual, I sat down in front of the computer and spent two hours drawing comic strips.

She didn't sleep very peacefully, and her dreams were all about looking at each other with Joel. She yawned while drawing. Halfway through the drawing, her phone rang.

Comics editor Su Tutu 's fatal link: My dear mother , you haven't replied to my message for a day. Where is the drawing I told you last time?

Sophia did not miss this opportunity to take advantage: Daughter, what's wrong?

Su Tutu : Your aloof image is not like this.

Sophia emphasized: I'm not aloof, I'm afraid of strangers.

Su Titu : Oh...I won't digress with you. I asked you to hand in the drawing last time. Why didn't you give it to me?

Sophia's voice was calm: As promised before the serialization, I won't update it.

Su Tutu almost begged her grandfather to sue her grandma: This is all money. No one else can add more if they want. Why do you treat money like dirt... Forget it , I forgot that you are not short of money, then you can Do you think it was painted for me?

Sofia: I was working half an hour ago.

Su Tutu cried with joy : I know you love me the most! Well , I won't bother you anymore. Just go on and send me your drawing.

After hanging up the phone, Sophia simply turned off the silent phone and concentrated on her work. When she finished sending the email, Didi realized that it was already six o'clock in the afternoon.

When I turned on my phone, in addition to receiving a message from Geraldine, I also received a message from Ruanruan.

Geraldine sent a series of apologies: Baby, I was too tired from playing a few days ago, and I went to bed very late last night. I overslept all of a sudden today, and I didn’t wake up until now. I saw the dungeon guide posted on the official blog , so your Zuixianwan is really a hot commodity now, right?

Sophia: It seems so. I sent it to you yesterday. Now the guild members are waiting for it. Please post it online when you are free .

Not long after, Geraldine replied: Sent it, sent it, I entered the game and sent it as soon as I woke up.

After chatting with Geraldine, Didi checked and saw that it was a chat message from Ruanruan.

It’s Ruanruan: Didi, are you angry?

It’s Ruanruan: Didi, I really have nothing to do with Dancing with Swords under the Moon, don’t think too much about it, otherwise I really don’t know what to do.

It was Ruanruan: I told him that I wanted the new Snow Mountain Flying Fox costume, and then he said he would take me on the whole trip. There was nothing like what the guild said between us.

It’s Ruanruan: Only the team that clears the dungeon for the first time in each server can get Snow Mountain Flying Fox. Many people in my group of sisters want it, and I want it too, so I asked Yuexia to help me.

Didi stared at these sentences and did some reading comprehension for a while. Half a minute later, a row of question marks popped up in his head because he was willing but unable to do so .

After thinking about it, she replied with a message: I don’t understand.

Maybe because everyone has entered the game at this time, no one has popped up in the guild group for a long time.

Sophia took a look, put her phone aside, opened the game room and entered the game. She rarely had any entertainment activities in the game. She used to occasionally play dungeons and enter the arena, but this season she had completely become a nobody.

As a solo player, Didi's favorite things are sightseeing and making herbal medicine.

When playing games, she habitually opened the gang channel. The gang was busy at the moment, with many people talking. Sophia glanced at it.

As usual, Ruanruan is still the center of the topic.

[Gang] Xiao Mengxin: Ruanruan ~ When will you start making copies? Is it full?

[Gang] Baron: Sorry, it's already full. We're waiting for someone now. The fight will start when everyone is here.

The gang leader and Ruanruan are not in the same group. Most of the people in the gang leader's group are not online at the moment. Just in case, Didi asked the gang leader's wife in advance .

[Secret Chat] Didi: Are you going to open the book tonight?

[Secret Chat] Toby: It may be later. Many people are not online now. If you want to dig herbs, you can dig them now.

After confirming it, Didi entered the instance and continued digging for herbs according to yesterday's steps. Because the Rampage state had been cleared yesterday, and Joel's blood volume was now full, Sophia could not do any more hidden missions, nor could she get the extra fifty jelly beans.

It's a pity.

Just as I was sighing, someone sent another message.

[Secret Chat] It’s Ruanruan: Ah Didi, you are finally online. I have wanted to ask you for a long time if you want to come and book a copy. I have reserved a special place for you.

[Secret Chat] Jiao Didi: I have synchronized the progress with the gang leader’s team.

[Secret Chat] It’s Ruanruan: It’s okay, Yuexia Sword Dance has a reset spirit stone, should I ask him to give it to you?

Reset Spirit Stones are things that only wealthy people will buy. Normal players can only play mainstream dungeons in the season like Blue Blood Yan Qing Palace once a week, but rich people can spend 1,000 yuan to give themselves an additional dungeon. opportunity .

[Secret Chat] Jiao Didi: No, I don’t have time to go now.

[Secret Chat] It’s Ruanruan: Ah, is it true? But I don’t mean anything else. I just want to apologize to you for what happened during the day... The team that is the first to clear the dungeon in the server will receive many rewards. , don’t you really want to pick up a few things? They are all reimbursed for the sword dance under the moon.

[Secret Chat] Jiao Didi: It’s okay to go.

[Secret Chat] It’s Ruanruan: Wow, that’s great. Yuexia will be very happy if she knows about it. Will you join the team now?

[Secret Chat] Jiao Didi: Flying fox costumes, black crystals, combat pets, and equipment with all healing attributes, I want these.

After saying this, Ruanruan was silent for a while.

What she wanted was to be able to bring Didi with her, face to face, showing off from the first second she entered the book to the last boss.

Give her what you want? How can it be?

[Secret Chat] It’s Ruanruan: I’m sorry, Yuexia Wujian promised to buy those things for me. I’m afraid that if I tell you, he will be unhappy when he finds out about it, woo woo hoo , drip. Oh, it's really not that I don't want to give it to you.

Sophia didn't reply to the message, so she closed the secret chat channel.

Finally calming down, she dug out all the herbs in the copy, even those in the courtyard where Joel was.

It might be an illusion, but she always felt that there were eyes watching her from behind when she was digging herbs. Sophia couldn't help but look back. He was sitting in the middle of the courtyard, drinking with his back to her. His movements were neither hurried nor slow, and he looked very leisurely.

Sophia let out a breath.

After a while, news about Geraldine came through.

[Private Chat] Geraldine: Hahahaha, you know what, Ruanruan's group failed again at the fifth level. They kept failing in the fight and couldn't get through at all.

[Private Chat] Geraldine: Hahahaha, I'm dying of laughter. Tuanzi told me that just because Yuexia booked a group for her, Ruanruan has been showing off all day and spreading the word everywhere, saying that Yuexia spent a lot of money to make her laugh, and that she would definitely get the Snow Fox costume today.

[Secret Chat] Geraldine: You don’t even know that when she came out of the book just now, her face was almost green with anger . She was also miserable under the moon. She spent money to hire so many big guys, twenty of them! How much money has been wasted and nothing has been gained!

[Secret Chat] Geraldine: But what’s going on with this dungeon? Is it really impossible to pass it? Not only our server, but also other servers, there is no all-access news until now, and I don’t know who will get the first Xuan Crystal of this season, ah, I really want to have it too!

Chapter4

After selling the items , Didi was just about to go to the trader to check the prices of other drugs when he heard the system sound suddenly pop up.

The beauty is intoxicated by the moon, the chivalrous hero is in love with the beautiful woman, and the swordsman dancing under the moon is spending a fortune. I have booked Luoyang City for an hour for the female knight Ruanruan. All players who don't have an invitation letter are requested to leave Luoyang City within ten minutes.

Obviously, this is an announcement for the entire server, and a voice message was included in order to prevent some people from missing it.

Everyone present had this expression: !!!

Wucao, sword dancing under the moon? Is it the sword dancing under the moon that I know? Someone said in shock

Take over Luoyang City? The boss is awesome, the boss is awesome. I can't even imagine the happiness of the rich. I also want to show off my wealth in such a high-profile way. Someone murmured enviously.

I knew this game could be played like this before I entered the game. I have been playing the game for three years, and this is the first time I have seen someone really spending money on it! Someone said with a sigh on his face.

Didn't I charge 300 yuan per minute? How much does it cost for an hour? Oh, my dog eyes are blinded by money. Someone covered his eyes and began to cry.

Those who charge 300 are wild pictures. In a major urban area like Luoyang City, the charge per minute seems to be 500... someone pointed out weakly .

Is there too much money to waste? What's fun in Baocheng? I don't understand. I might as well use the money to buy some more clothes for my parents. Some people also quickly and accurately found the bargaining point.

The world channel exploded instantly, with a series of 666s rapidly filling the screen, too much to keep up with.

Sophia has also heard of the concept of booking a city , which is similar to booking a restaurant in real life. After the game map is booked, all irrelevant people in the map will be cleared out within a certain period of time.

When it first came out, many people complained about it, but because it was too expensive, costing tens of thousands per package, and had no other function except to pretend to be cool for a short time, no one tried it.

At least not in this server.

The most lavish thing to do is to book a restaurant and invite friends and family to dinner.

Geraldine was also dumbfounded . After the system announcement, she quickly grabbed Sophia's sleeve: Did I hear you right? Yuexia is covering up Luoyang City for Ruanyuan? Why is he covering up Luoyang City?

Within a few seconds, expressions such as dementia and shock quickly flashed across her face: Oh my god, now that little bitch Ruanruan is blowing again ! I'm going to kill this blind Yuexia. Dog man!"

Then, news about Yuexia's sword dance popped up on the gang channel.

[Gang] Sword Dance under the Moon: Please help me, I will trick Ruanruan into going to Luoyang City later, and I want to give her a grand confession ceremony. The invitation letter has been sent to you by courier. You must come before eight o'clock. Woyun Restaurant, we have half an hour to prepare.

He booked Luoyang City for two hours, from eight o'clock to ten o'clock.

Over there, Geraldine was already counting money on his fingers. Tens of thousands of dollars was indeed nothing to a rich man, but it depended on what he spent it on.

Rent Luoyang City for two hours? How much do you want to burn money?

Geraldine: Why do I always have tears in my eyes, because I am a poor man.

Long before Yuexia spoke, the gang channel was frantically discussing this matter. After Yuexia spoke, those discussions turned into neat congratulations.

[Gang] Toby: Congratulations, congratulations, I finally have a confession.

[Gang] Byron: How can you be happy if you make such a big fuss? Everyone in the server knows about it.

[Gang] Sword Dance under the Moon: I had deceived her offline before, and also told her close friends and relatives , asking them to keep it secret.

[Gang] Lin Xianer: Yuexia is so considerate. Ruanruan will probably cry when she sees her later. I will move to the Civil Affairs Bureau and ask you to get married where you are.

[Gang] Dancing Sword under the Moon: [Handy Laughter][Handy Laughter] It's okay. If she can agree to me today, it will be a must for future weddings.

Geraldine muttered: The confession has caused such a sensation. When the time comes to get married, will everyone in the server be offline?

[Gang] Sword Dance under the Moon: Because I was afraid that if too many people knew about it, the news would be leaked, I didn’t tell you in advance. Everyone online, please be sure to be there. I will mail the hard-earned fees to everyone after the event.

Sofia didn't like to join in the fun, so she didn't want to go.

As for Geraldine, she had already made up a soft expression in her mind before they met him, and she didn't want to be there in person to be angry with him.

She is the deputy gang leader, and she must give notice if she does not want to participate in gang activities.

[Gang] Geraldine: I have something else to do later, so I won't go.

[Gang] Dancing with Swords Under the Moon: Deputy Gang Leader, please, as the deputy gang leader you must come as a witness. When the time comes, just sit back and don’t have to do anything.

Not only was there someone dancing with swords under the moon, other members of the gang also began to persuade Geraldine.

[Gang] Moonlight Sword Dance: Didn't you say in the guild last time that you wanted the Fire Fox Whip that I kept in the Night Rest Pavilion ? As long as you can come, the Fire Fox Whip will be given to you.

The Fire Fox Whip is a divine weapon ranked in the top ten of the weapon list . For Geraldine of the Spirit Whip Sect , it is her best choice besides the orange weapon .

[Gang] Geraldine:! !

Geraldine's expression told Sophia that her heart was moved.

He said just go. He didn't say how long he had to stay. Let's just sit there for five minutes and then run away, okay. Geraldine grabbed Sophia's hands, Didi, ok Didi, you stay with me for a while. Just five minutes! Let’s run away in five minutes.

Compared with Geraldine, Sophia's inner resistance was not that great. Seeing that she wanted to go, she nodded in agreement.

She was usually still digging for herbs in the dungeon at this time. It wasn't bedtime yet, and she had nothing else to do if she didn't go offline . Since Geraldine wanted to go, she could go and have a look.

Sophia had no feelings for both Yuexia Wujian and Ruanruan. In fact, she really hoped that they could grow old together, have children soon, and love each other happily. She also hoped that they would stop sending her weird messages in the future.

With the idea of sincere blessing, Didi went to Woyun Restaurant in Luoyang City with Geraldine.

When we arrived, almost all the gang members were already there.

Yuexia Wujian was leading his men to arrange their formation. Each of the gang members was holding a big sign in their hands, looking silly.

With a face full of the majesty of a gang leader, Geraldine walked up to Yuexia Wujian, who was wearing luxurious clothes, and said in a cold voice: It's enough that the people are here, what about the positions?

twist his head off.

Yuexia Wujian glanced at Sophia first, and then looked at Geraldine. A smile appeared on his face: You just go in and sit down. I will ask the waiter to serve you tea.

Entering the restaurant, he found a remote seat and sat down. Geraldine's expression looked a little better.

After a while of fussing around outside, the arrangements were finally made, and at half past eight, Ruanruan finally arrived.

The night view of Luoyang City is very beautiful. Because the venue is reserved, the stars in the night sky are lined up with soft names, shining brightly. The bright red petals spread out a red carpet on the road , and the fragrance of flowers overflows.

Ruanruan did not know anything about this grand confession ceremony in advance. When she saw the dancing sword under the moon at the end of the petals, and then glanced at the advertisement board in formation behind him, she was so excited that she was overwhelmed on the spot.

There is no doubt that the confession was very successful.

the crowd, Yuexia Wushu held her soft hand and led her into the restaurant.

He said affectionately: I know that you are very unhappy because I have not been able to bring you the Snow Mountain Flying Fox fashion in the past few days, but I want to tell you that even without those, I can still prove my love for you.

Ruanruan was so excited that her breathing became short, and she held his hand tightly: ...I am not unhappy. I am happy every minute and every second when I am with you.

Geraldine was shaking goosebumps desperately, and his voice was so low that only he could hear: She is very happy, and she is also happy every minute and every second she spends with the thirteen spare tires.

Yuexia Wujian solemnly swore: The failure of the last group tour was my mistake. When the official fixes the bug on Monday, we will go get the Snow Mountain Flying Fox. I have already contacted the twenty people before. Don't worry, we will definitely be able to do it for the first time. One pass."

It's Ruanruan . I'm so moved that I don't know what to say.

The next moment, Yuexia Wujian's expression suddenly became solemn: But, I hope you won't mention Jiaodi all the time in the future.

Upon hearing this, everyone present, except Didi who was in a daze, was stunned.

The court fell silent, and Sophia realized something was wrong. She subconsciously glanced to her side, blinked, and tried to keep up with the rhythm.

Before Ruanruan understood what he meant, Wu Jian continued, You are the only one in my heart from beginning to end. I have never liked anyone else. Don't always compare yourself with Jiaodi. You are the most beautiful one in my eyes.

Sophia: ......?

She suspected she had missed some important news.

Looking sideways at Geraldine, he seemed to be on the verge of exploding.

Ruan Ruan was so moved that she burst into tears: I'm sorry... I used to be insecure. I'm afraid I can't compare to Jiao Didi's weight in your heart. After all, she is so good.

Everyone in the restaurant was as quiet as a chicken, only the two of them were talking to each other.

Sofia felt something was wrong. At this critical moment, she wanted to ask why they took her with them when they confessed.

If her memory is correct, she and Yuexia Wujian are not familiar with each other at all.

But it's obvious that the couple has now entered some kind of sacred state, automatically blocking everyone around them.

With a snap, Geraldine stood up from his seat and walked over to the pair angrily.

Sofia was afraid that she would ruin the perfect couple's confession scene because of her impulsiveness, so she quickly ran forward and grabbed Geraldine's wrist.

Calm down, she whispered.

Unfortunately, it was already quite late and the noise was too loud. Apart from Yuexia and Ruanruan, they were the only ones standing, so everyone looked over.

After seeing Jiaodi, people who are not in the know even imagine a bloody love triangle.

Confessing is not exciting, stealing a man is exciting.

It seemed inappropriate to go back to the original position now, and Sophia grabbed Geraldine's hand without saying anything: Come with me.

Geraldine snorted reluctantly and walked forward led by Sofia.

Sophia stopped when she was still three feet away from Yuexia and Ruanruan. She ignored Yuexia's complicated look as she danced with the sword, and ignored Ruanruan's vigilant and complacent eyes. She slowly squatted down in front of everyone present .

Geraldine lowered his head: ?

The others lowered their heads: ???

The black-haired girl stretched out her hand and drew a line in the air. Half a second later, she looked up at the two people opposite her.

There was nothing but sincerity and seriousness in her eyes, and at the corner of her mouth was a smile so shallow that it could be ignored.

The next second, a dazzling rose-shaped firework bloomed on the spot, and the blooming delicate flowers enveloped the two lovers in their petals. Then, thousands of ice-blue petals flowed out from under their feet like water, decorating the entire wooden floor and walls of the first floor, and the fragrance soon filled the entire room.

The fireworks are called Happiness for a Hundred Years and are priced moderately, neither expensive nor cheap.

After setting off the fireworks, Sophia stood up, looked at the two people in front of her and sincerely wished them well: These fireworks are for you two to have a happy marriage and have a baby soon.

But I hope that next time you confess your feelings to someone, you won't mention the name of the third person.

Because I don't like it.

= =

Jiaodi became famous in the gang.

It is said that after she dragged Geraldine away yesterday, her soft and smelly face remained sour for three hours before returning to normal.

Because of her,
