Chapter 100 Dungeon [Chess Match]
After confirming that the other party had left, she decisively took the list and called out each name in the chat channel.
[Lemon Tree Lemon Fruit]: I just got a bunch of traffic violation records. I should know who committed the offenses. Come to me to deal with the violations.
[Frozen in the Snow]: I should be included. I modified my car and got caught by Officer Snake. My criminal record has been added to my record.
[Stop cursing, Xie En]: I should be partly responsible too. I hit someone with my car right in front of Officer Snake.
[Fairy Descending to Earth]: Tsk tsk tsk, traffic violation records are so varied, but even modified cars get caught?
[Young Master laughed again]: Is that Beetle modified into a two-story house your car? @FrozenSnowyNight
[I really can't beat him]: Huh?
[I'm a pretty girl]: A two-story house? A Volkswagen Beetle? How did these two things end up together?
[Don't you have any work to do?]: Who else should be punished if not you?
[Thank you, stop scolding me]: I think so too.
[Shark Ten Years]: @Xie En, don't curse me, I remember you. You hit me, *smile*.jpg
[Thank you, don't scold me]: Emmm, my car had a problem at the time, please forgive me.
[Lemon Tree Lemon Fruit]: Take the initiative to message me privately while I still have the authority to handle this today. If it were an officer from the "Highway Police Department", it probably wouldn't be so simple.
[Spicy strips with steamed buns]: I just came out of a dungeon. Dungeon survival rate... 9%.
[Fairy Descending to Earth]: @Do you sell news about spicy strips and steamed buns?
[Spicy Strips with Steamed Buns]: I'm choosing to make this information about the "Fairy Descending to Earth" instance public.
[Spicy Strips with Steamed Buns]: The instance is called "Chess Match". The system will randomly select a player to be a "chess player" and play against a "chess player" created by the system. During the game, any piece captured, whether black or white, will result in the death of the corresponding player until you defeat the system or are defeated by the system.
[Spicy Strips with Steamed Buns]: The only way to pass this level is to be selected as a chess player and then defeat or kill the "chess player" created by the system in this instance.
[Spicy strips with steamed buns]: The premise is that you can beat that "chess player," otherwise you're doomed...
[Old Transparent Man]: @Spicy Strips with Steamed Buns, who are your players this round?
[Spicy Strips with Steamed Buns]: I don't know the ID. It's a guy with a very ugly scar on his face that grazes his brow bone.
Pei Hening glanced at the chat channel and remembered the dungeon that [Spicy Strips with Steamed Buns] was talking about.
The method to clear the level seems simple, but this simplicity is based on absolute strength. Defeating the system "chess player" in terms of either chess skills or physical strength is not easy.
[Malice]: Master, I have received the invitation from "Highway Gardening" that you asked me to keep an eye out for, and I have already given it to you.
Pei Hening took out the "Highway Gardening" invitation, looked at it, and raised an eyebrow. The invitation was printed with various plants and had a very high-quality feel; it was extremely beautiful.
[Malice]: Master, there's one more thing. This morning I entered a dungeon run by elves and saw a part-time merchant. I found two very valuable items: a "card-making machine" and a "card album." I've brought you a copy.
[DibiDibi]: You can keep it, I don't need it. Tell me about the dungeon situation.
[Malice]: The dungeon is called "The Forest is My Home". After entering the dungeon, you need to plant a certain number of magical trees within a specified time. If you damage the trees or fail to complete the planting task, you will be eliminated by the supervisor. In addition, the player who plants the slowest will also be punished and will not be able to obtain resources for seven consecutive days.
[Malice]: It's important to note that the dungeon is very chaotic at the beginning. Players all think that getting first place will bring special rewards, so they go all out to cause trouble for other players.
[Committed many evil deeds]: Quite a few people died because of the infighting among players.
[DibiDibi]: Okay, I understand.
Pei Hening replied simply that the game of road survival has a pretty big range. The dungeon that [Spicy Strips with Steamed Buns] entered was insane, while the dungeon that [Does Many Evils] entered seemed much child's play compared to the dungeon that [Spicy Strips with Steamed Buns] entered.
——
At six o'clock in the afternoon, Pei Hening pulled on a sun-protective shirt, got out of the car, and opened her suitcase.
The number of monsters in the box increased, and she found a lot of vehicle upgrade materials, but very few food items. Most of them were filling foods, such as compressed biscuits and self-heating rice.
She opened a box of fresh beef and gave it to Chu Xuange, then used the vehicle's protective range to kill the monster.
A short while later, Chu Xuange called.
"Baby, you play by yourself for a while, I'm going to wash up."
Pei Hening looked up and saw him taking off his blood-stained black vest.
She saw his beautiful, well-defined muscles as he walked toward the bathroom.
Pei Hening withdrew her gaze and continued to kill monsters while staying at the edge of the circle.
After Chu Xuange finished showering, he saw that she was still busy, so he didn't disturb her and quietly made dinner. He had just finished preparing the ingredients when he heard 999's call.
"Good evening, fellow survivors of the road trip. This is 999. I want to reiterate: Monsters are not edible; if any food tastes strange, stop eating it immediately, no need to ask why."
The three consecutive broadcasts caused Pei Hening to stop her monster-killing progress.
"Gogo, did you hear that?"
Chu Xuange lowered his eyes, his tone calm to the point of being almost indifferent: "I heard it. It seems that the number of players who died from eating monsters has reached a certain scale, and 999 couldn't stand it anymore."
His knuckles turned white as he held the cleaver; the more 999 reminded him, the more dissatisfied he became.
This dissatisfaction was directed at the system of the division where Pei Hening was in her previous life. Thinking of the miserable state she was in when he found her, the fire of hatred that had just been extinguished in his heart was reignited.
It turns out that the partitioning system can also provide some well-timed reminders within a certain range.
Pei Hening said with certainty, "GeGe, you're angry."
Chu Xuange hummed in agreement: "I am a little angry, angry at that idiot partitioning system we encountered in the last round."
He changed the subject, "Baby, go wash your hands. I'll just cook two dishes, it'll be quick."
After disposing of the monster corpses piled outside the vehicle's protection zone, Pei Hening washed his hands and returned to the vehicle.
She asked, "Gogo, are you going to school tomorrow?"
Thinking about tomorrow's plans, Chu Xuange proactively reported his itinerary: "I'll go to the black market in the morning and complete a professional task while I'm there. I'll go to school on time in the afternoon."
She asked curiously, "You already have a job quest? Who are you going to kill?"
Chu Xuange brought her the dinner he had made and glanced at his personal panel: "It wasn't murder, it was reconnaissance. Those cases won't fall into my hands for now."
Compared to other professions, assassins are much more flexible, and because there are few people in this profession, they are not given tasks that they cannot complete.
It can be considered a form of 'care' in disguise.
Pei Hening looked at him and said, "Then be careful, don't get into trouble."
Thirty days of survival on the highway.
Pei Hening used an invitation from "Highway Gardening".
She was holding a notebook, recording the items she was buying for other players and calculating how many more orders were needed to complete the assigned task.
002: "Master, we've arrived."
Pei Hening looked up and saw that the "Highway Horticulture" station was very large, looking like a small forest with all kinds of trees and shrubs, as well as many strange plants.
The good news is that the flowers here aren't very fragrant.
002 drove the car into the parking lot.
"Welcome player [DibiDibi] to the Highway Gardening Site. Please remember the following rules carefully."
"1. Gardening enthusiasts can visit this site to purchase their favorite plants, as well as various gardening tools and equipment."
"2. Damaging plants and equipment within the site is strictly prohibited. If such damage is discovered, compensation will be required at three times the original price of the item."
"3. Fighting and causing trouble are strictly prohibited within the site, and the use of any fire-based skills is also prohibited."
"4. Players may not stay in the site for more than three hours."
5. Disturbance to staff or plants within the site is prohibited.
"Special (Correction 2): A villain with tens of millions of sin points has appeared. The pursuit team and bounty hunters are continuing their manhunt. If you encounter the police on duty, please cooperate with the investigation. (Note: If you have any relevant clues, please contact us immediately. A large reward awaits.)"
Pei Hening paused slightly as she opened the car door. Interesting, this special rule has changed again!
She got off the bus and walked towards the station when she suddenly heard someone arguing with a staff member.
"I only glanced at that plant, and you're trying to force me to buy it? Isn't that a bit unreasonable? I suspect you're a shady business!"
The staff at this site were of a race Pei Hening had never seen before. She couldn't tell their gender. The person was wearing a black stand-up collar jacket, and their short, emerald-green hair shone like a gemstone. Their eyes, like violet gemstones, were calm and unwavering.
"Please provide evidence to prove that we are a shady business, otherwise I can sue you for defamation."
It's impossible to tell whether the voice is male or female.
Pei Hening walked silently into the station; she had no intention of joining in the fun.
However, the female player who was arguing with the staff saw Pei Hening and her eyes lit up. She quickly reached out and grabbed her, looking as if she had been greatly wronged.
"Hey, you be the judge! I just glanced at that gray plant a couple of times, and this guy tried to force it on me. Isn't that going too far?"
Pei Hening looked at the hand gripping her arm and said in a bad mood, "Let go."
The female player was dissatisfied and did not let go: "Why are you so indifferent? I just wanted you to judge. You're a player too, can't you try to see things from my perspective?"
Pei Hening pried her hands away with a dark expression, his voice as cold as ice: "What does this have to do with me?"
The female player winced in pain, released her grip, and continued her unreasonable tantrum: "How can you be like this? Not only will you not help me, but you're also so cold-hearted!"
Pei Hening ignored her, took out a wet wipe to clean the area where the female player had scratched her, her disgust clearly showing.
It was already hot, and then I touched her. It was annoying.
With a dark expression, she headed towards the station.
"Hey, you can't just leave like this! If you're not willing to speak up for me, then you'd better pay me!"
Pei Hening turned to look at her and asked, "Who are you? What's your ID?"
The female player thought Pei Hening was going to reimburse her, so she slightly raised her chin and said arrogantly, "Remember this, my name is 'Don't mess with me, you poor bastard.' Don't transfer the money to the wrong person."
Pei Hening nodded indifferently, opened the chat channel, found [Don't touch me, you poor bastard], and clicked on her homepage. She also did not hide her personal panel, and none of her four attributes were above 20.
"Transfer the money! What are you standing there for?"
Pei Hening glanced at her, extremely puzzled: "Have you always been this arrogant?"
The other person seemed to have been hit where it hurt, and glared at her unhappily: "How dare you talk like that? Didn't we say Girls help girls? Are you going to just stand by and watch them die?"
Pei Hening frowned, confused: "What the heck? Girls help girls? What does that have to do with me?"
She hated being morally blackmailed and ignored her, continuing to walk into the station.
A blue-haired staff member came to her side and showed her around.
"Guest, shall I show you around?"
Pei Hening got straight to the point: "I want to buy nutrient solution, take me to see it."
The blue-haired staff member led her toward a glass room.
[Don't touch me, you poor bastard] was so angry that she jumped up and down when she saw that Pei Hening really didn't care about her. She opened the chat channel and started making sarcastic remarks.
[Don't mess with me, you poor bastard]: Everyone's saying 'Girls help girls.' Only I believed it! Turns out not every girl is so kind! There was this awful woman who saw I was in trouble but wouldn't help me!
[Thank you, stop scolding me]: Something feels off.
[I can bury you in money]: Where's your dad?
[Shark Ten Years]: Is Old Qian on fire today? @OldMoneyCanSmashYouToDeath
[Don't touch me, you poor bastard]: Brother, how could you say that about me?
[The Mermaid on the Run]: Brother, how could you say such a thing about someone?
[Thunder King]: What exactly happened? @PoorGhostDontTouchThisMiss
[I'll bury you in money]: If you keep yelling, you're asking for it. @Poor bastard, don't touch me!
[Lamb of Laziness]: So annoying! I've figured it out, the hotter the weather, the worse my mood!
[Don't mess with me, you poor bastard]: I was scammed by an NPC. I ran into a female player and asked her to put in a good word for me, but she ignored me and wouldn't even say a kind word.
[Don't mess with me, you poor bastard]: I'm really disappointed in female gamers. They're all so petty. If it were a guy, you'd definitely help him. @霹雳大王
[Thunder King]:...
[Beauty King]: If it were your brother, you would definitely help him~ @ThunderboltKing
[I'll bury you in money]: So annoying, bro, where's your dad?
[Old Invisible Man]: This temper, tsk tsk tsk.
[Falling Flowers and Fragrant Rain]: What's going on with Lao Qian today?
[Fairy Descending to Earth]: I don't know, but someone should know.
Pei Hening looked at the row of nutrient solutions in front of her, found the one that Chu Xuange had used before, asked about the price, and then opened the chat channel. She saw [Don't touch me, you poor bastard] making sarcastic remarks. She frowned. Why is this person so persistent?
She looked at the staff and asked, "What's going on with that customer at the door? He kept saying you're a rip-off shop?"
The blue-haired staff member felt a headache when she mentioned her: "That customer yelled at the Sleeping Tree and woke it up. Once the Sleeping Tree is awake, it can't stay here. It needs to be sold, otherwise it will emit bioluminescence and put the surrounding plants into a state of suspended animation."
