250: Chapter 229: The Slab 250: Chapter 229: The Slab Upon opening his eyes, Li Cheng returned to the familiar living room once more.
Gray Rain looked around in disappointnt and said, “Eh, just the two of us?
I thought the Justice League would follow us here.”
“Keep dreaming.”
Li Cheng glanced at her and said, “Bringing people out of the script world would require a toll fee.”
To bring Gray Rain out from the Narrative Cage at the ti, Li Cheng had paid the system a whopping 5812 Ga Coins.
Now it seems that investnt was more than worth it, given Gray Rain alone was equivalent to the Legendary Endurance King, Resilient King, Electric Resistance King, Poison Resistance King, Study King…
Uh, let’s not count the Study King, since Gray Rain is actually still pursuing her elentary education—ntion stamina to her and she thinks you’re talking about a bubble tea chain like Nayuki’s Tea.
Furthermore, according to the note for the Assembly Puppet, the disassembled body parts would still bleed, decay, and rust.
Those Justice League superheroes were all from mutant corpses, inherently dead to begin with.
If the ti dragged on, their bodies would decay, damaging the brain tissue Li Cheng had extracted along with them.
Therefore, before leaving the script, he gave the fake Justice League a self-destruct command to ensure he destroyed all traces he left in the script world.
There was a concrete precedent: a high-level player once couldn’t keep it in his pants in a demon-thed script world and had a one-night stand with an NPC Fox Demon.
He never thought the connection would be so deep.
After he left the script world without a second thought, the Fox Demon got pregnant and gave birth.
And that half-demon offspring hitched a ride with another player to the killing field, setting the stage for a lodramatic story of an illegitimate child coming after a deadbeat dad for inheritance.
anwhile, the guy himself had his privates snipped off by his powerful wife (also a Transcendent) and was forced to recover by drinking a Life Potion, greatly satisfying the voyeuristic desires of forum netizens.
Considering the ti flow in the script world is different from the real world, should a player’s hair, dandruff, blood, or such be left behind, and a tech company there gathers DNA samples,
they could totally clone the player or create offspring using the player’s DNA.
With so bad luck, one might even face an extre situation like “detaching from the mission one second, the next second a bunch of handso n and beautiful won ti-travel to call oneself ancestor.”
Li Cheng had yet to take his college entrance exam and didn’t wish to beco a grandfather so soon.
Gray Rain shook her head and sighed, “What a sha.
It would have been great to bring those from the Justice League over.
We could beco landlords and have them work construction, earning thousands a day.
Wouldn’t that be splendid?”
Holy crap, why on earth are you also thinking about making them work construction?
You haven’t developed mind-reading skills, have you?
The corner of Li Cheng’s eye twitched as he stubbornly retorted, “Sending superheroes to do construction work is a waste, isn’t it?
It’d be better to let them be rcenaries.”
“Being rcenaries would an going abroad, there are people from the Special Affairs Bureau checking at the customs.”
Gray Rain rarely showed such clarity and assertively said, “I already spared them from auditioning, street vending, and live streaming—consider dignified.
That’s what all the novels say.”
Gray Rain pulled out her phone and showed the screen to Li Cheng and sure enough, it was displaying an ebook called “The Most Chaotic Ever.”
Damn, that’s so old internet literature from 2008.
Li Cheng facepald, ready to ask Gray Rain why she suddenly dug up such old stuff when he rembered that in a sense, she was from the future (the future in the script world is still the future), so all modern literary works are like ancient texts to her.
“You win.”
Li Cheng listlessly brought out the virtual warehouse and set it up in the living room for Gray Rain to play in.
The warehouse space was much larger than the apartnt, equipped with food, drinks, utilities, internet, ga consoles—you na it.
Plus, one could jump around freely without fearing to break the floor and crushing a downstairs neighbor.
Gray Rain spent almost all her ti in there except for sleeping at night.
Sending Gray Rain off, Li Cheng helplessly shook his head and walked to the fridge, grabbed a Coke, and leisurely started sipping it while reviewing the gains from this mission.
[Player Overall Performance: S , the obtained Ga Coins and Experience Points are increased to 160%]
[Mission Reward 1: 1000 Experience Points]
[Mission Reward 2: 1400 Ga Coins]
With the 1.6 multiplier, Li Cheng gained 1600 Experience Points and 2240 Ga Coins—upgrading from the original Lv14, Experience Bar at 140/1400, to Lv15, Experience Bar at 340/1500.
[Mission Reward 3: Randomly take the highest quality item or skill from an enemy player’s Backpack]
[Mission Reward 4: Perfect quality universal item Upgrade Electric Shock Device *1, can upgrade one fine-quality item to perfect quality]
Here’s the translation:
This was the key part, Li Cheng rubbed his palms together; he was actually quite eager to acquire the transformative superpower abilities of Cervantes.
“Open!”
Following a soft exclamation, what appeared in Li Cheng’s backpack was a very familiar stone slab.
[Na: Achili Toy Factory Key No.5]
[Type: Abnormal Item]
[Quality: Ordinary]
[Special Effect: None]
[Note: The Achili Toy Factory, as a well-known toy company, follows the mission “to bring joy to the world” and ensures quality through technology, gains a reputation with quality, and fosters developnt with reputation.
It has multiple renowned IPs, and its products are sold across the multiverse, earning widespread acclaim]
[Note: This object is one of the seven factory keys.
Collecting all keys will unlock the toy factory located in the killing field and take control of its authority]
[Note: The keys will attract each other.
If a key is away from the killing field for an extended ti, it will automatically activate certain factory equipnt to return to the killing field in so way.
Keys cannot be destroyed, sold, or transferred.
They will only drop upon the holder’s death]
[Note: As the Blood Moon descends, all things go mad.
We, the last survivors of this world, offer sacred relics to the Bone Church, only wishing for the gods’ rcy, to forgive the sins of mankind…
They are smashing the door]
[Note: Is this an ancient church from a civilization now extinct?
Hm?
Whose stone slab key is this?
If nobody wants it, I’ll just take it]
Huh?!
Li Cheng pushed his glasses, the lenses reflecting the cold light of the fridge.
The key he obtained from the dark the park was the No.3 Stone Slab Key, while the one looted from Cervantes was the No.5 Key.
The patterns on the surface of the two items were slightly different, and the last two notes varied.
The No.3 Stone Slab Key was left by the female wheelchair scientist created by the stone slab.
The No.5 Stone Slab Key seed to originate from so script world facing doomsday, later excavated by soone (possibly Cervantes), and brought back to the killing field.
‘The note says the keys attract each other; is that why I’ve encountered Cervantes twice?
And he clearly had items of higher quality than the ordinary ones; could it be because of the key’s trait that the killing field prioritized giving this to ?’
Li Cheng’s brow furrowed slightly; he had no doubt that the key’s mystique was no less than that of the Epic Quality Liangyi Blade; this thing could squarely withstand the chaos of ti flows.
‘No matter, Cervantes is, after all, a prisoner of the Special Affairs Bureau.
Once they learn that he has lost the duel to the death, they should co and ask about it, right?’
With too little information at hand, Li Cheng put away the No.5 Stone Slab and turned to the next acquisition.
The item looted from Cervantes was the No.5 Stone Slab Key, and the skill looted was [Wave Flipping Cloud].
This skill was not bad, with a short cooling ti, and a wide control range.
And…
Li Cheng noticed that two [Holographic Bone Corridor] recorded temporary skills had appeared in his skill bar.
[Temporary Skill: Expert in All Martial Arts, This Is Aiming]
This skill ca from a cosplay Hawkeye, and the effect is to increase proficiency with any shooting weapon.
[Temporary Skill: Leopard Jump]
This skill ca from a cosplay Black Panther, the effect of which was to increase the height and distance of the next jump.
These two temporary skills flashed by; following that, the Holographic Bone Corridor Guard Arm that Li Cheng wore on his left elbow suddenly trembled.
The Guard Arm automatically detached from Li Cheng, fell to the ground, and deford rapidly, shifting into an archway form, more majestic and grand than before, nearly reaching the living room ceiling,
[Note: Upon collecting 10 Holographic Images, pay 5000 Ga Coins to upgrade the quality of the Corridor to “Perfect” and enhance the special effect]
Seeing this, Li Cheng quickly tossed the Bone Corridor into the three-dinsional warehouse, letting it further expand and evolve.
