It was almost a given that they cleared the ga after getting the 6th Movent.
But because Tang Cuo and Jin Cheng didnt yet rent a house when they levelled up to Zone E, by the ti they returned to Yong Ye City, there was temporarily nowhere to return to.
The players here didnt show any particular reaction to Jin Cheng and Tang Cuos sudden appearance, but Jin Cheng still put on a mask and pulled Tang Cuos shoulders over, quickly taking him to leave the ga hall.
Tang Cuo felt a little bit embarrassed. He turned his head away to look at the street and asked: Where are we going?
Jin Cheng smiled: Theres no need to be nervous. Well now go directly to Lin Yandong. The 6th Movent shouldnt be on our hands for too long.
Hearing that, Tang Cuo certainly wouldnt have a mind to think about anything else: How do you think youll use it?
Jin Cheng: I have a general idea, but I need to consult Lin Yandong a bit. Hes better than anyone else when it cos to knowing the rules of Yong Ye City.
After turning over a corner, Jin Cheng casually let go of Tang Cuo and the two headed straight to the center. Tang Cuo glanced at his shoulder and said nothing.
Today, many turbulent undercurrents were still crashing into the central area. As they walked on the road, the eyes that peeked at them from the sidewalk or the dark corners seed to increase significantly. The place felt like a forest so quiet that it only needed a tiny wind to startle the whole flock of birds.
The news about the ergence of the 6th Movent hadnt spread. When it finally spread, the forest would definitely burn.
But what Tang Cuo didnt expect was that the news was exposed much faster than he thought.
Back there, they had already t Wen Xiaoming, who had been waiting in the central area. After exchanging information, they went directly to Lin Yandongs book cafe. Wen Xiaoming was responsible for finding Lin Yandong, while Tang Cuo and Jin Cheng waited in the cafe.
While waiting, the two chatted about their harvest after this dungeon.
Since it was a special trigger dungeon of Hard difficulty, the system boldly rewarded each of them 50 points. At the last second, Tang Cuo took out the Big Red Flower, doubling this 50 points to 100 points.
Although there were few other rewards, each of them had a note-worthy value.
[Ti Manipulation]
Classification: Skill
Quality: High
Description: It takes 50 HP to rewind ti to a point in the past. Valid within 24 hours (only usable inside a dungeon).
[Horror Doll]
Classification: Equipnt
Quality: High
Description: Throwing the doll at the enemy releases a scream that has a 15-ter range, causing a ntal shock that lasts for 5 seconds.
[Golden Scissors]
Classification: Weapon
Quality: Normal
Description: The golden scissors of Yu Mansions young miss, which can cut through silk threads but cannot cut off a prolonged tragedy.
Tang Cuo decided to not pay attention to the scissors for now. Both Ti Manipulation and [Horror Doll] were practical items that he unexpectedly earned, which made Tang Cuo quite satisfied.
About half an hour later, Lin Yandong appeared, bringing them bad news.
The news that the [Twelve Movents] have been taken has spread.
So soon? Is it Rong Yi?
Jin Cheng frowned. Lin Yandong still looked elegant as ever, as if nothing could make him lose his composure. He gestured to the waiter to serve him a cup of tea, then he said slowly: After you took away the movent, the special trigger dungeon was closed. At that mont, soone wanted to enter yet the dungeon that he received was an easy fighting dungeon. So by the ti he ca out from that dungeon, the truth was certainly revealed.
So that was why.
Jin Cheng tapped his fingers on the table: When the movent takes effect, the whole city will be inford anyway. Theyll know sooner or later, its not much different.
Lin Yandong was a little surprised: Have you decided already? Are you going to use it now?
Does Mr. Lin think that Im that kind of man who likes to provoke others?
Not at all. Id like to call it an act of maximising benefits.
Jin Cheng liked this statent.
But he just gave his commands in Zone F. If he did it again in Zone E so quickly, it would be too wicked. Moreover, the 6th Movent was manifold more attractive than the 11th Movent, so his plan could easily be overturned if he wasnt careful.
Does Mr. Lin have any suggestions?
My suggestion is: points.
Reduce the number of points required for levelling up to speed up the entire process?
Yes and no. The difficulty of the tasks rises with each zone, so it might be good for players to level up faster, but if their own strengths dont keep up with the rise in levels, it will just backfire.
Jin Cheng pondered for a mont: Reduce the price of goods?
Lin Yandong: The prices in the official dicine stores and for using the training grounds can be reduced by at least half. The points handed over to Yong Ye City every month can also be reduced by one-third.
Arent you trying to snatch the prey right in front of the tigers mouth?
The system itself doesnt rely on points, does it?
What else? Jin Cheng smiled. He leaned on the back of the sofa with his arms folded, his posture leisurely and his tone relaxing. It was as though he wasnt here to talk about things but to listen to Lin Yandongs report.
Miao Qi, who had been insistently sitting by Lin Yandongs side, couldnt help but glare at him, but Lin Yandong didnt care: Improve the red number system that you set up last ti and re-enact at the rules on imprisonnt.
You want the killer to go to jail and the victim to get out of jail?
No, I want them both to go to jail.
Cruel.
In Yong Ye City, survival is the no.1 requirent. Players are killed if they arent strong enough, so sending them to jail is a good lesson. Those who kill indiscriminately regardless of the law must also receive a lesson. Theres no law and order in Yong Ye City, so lets build one.
After hearing this, Tang Cuo rembered Jin Cheng had said before that in Yong Ye City, the most difficult thing was to establish order. Unlike Jin Chengs commands in Zone F that outrageously sent a great number of elite players to jail at once, the asures Lin Yandong proposed would change the order of Yong Ye City bit by bit.
To give a simile, this was like playing a city building ga. These laws wouldnt have much impact on the elites. It would be the ordinary players that received the most benefits, but the ti to see the impact would be rather slow.
At the end of the conversation, Jin Cheng asked: I still have the sa question I had before. Can Yong Ye City ever be closed down?
The first ti Jin Cheng asked this question was a year after he entered Yong Ye City. Back then, Yandong smiled but didnt answer him.
Now, Lin Yandong still kept the sa smile and replied: If you want to know the answer to this question, you must understand the true structure of this world. Does God really exist?
This was an answer that was actually not an answer.
Jin Cheng raised his eyebrows and didnt ask any more. He took a sip of coffee and resud his leisurely posture: Mind if I call my dear Mr. Crow here?
Lin Yandong: Please do.
The book cafe wasnt having any guests anyway.
Jin Cheng exchanged a glance with Tang Cuo again. He didnt ask Tang Cuos opinion, for he knew that Tang Cuo was always straightforward. If Tang Cuo had any concern, he would bring it out at once.
Tang Cuo nodded and Jin Cheng understood.
The next second, Jin Cheng firmly took out the 6th Movent. This ti, without any obstruction from other players, he didnt write the laws he wanted in advance. He directly said the word
I command.
His tone was calm and decisive.
The ethereal yet eerie song ca again. Taking the center as the book cafe, the singing quickly enveloped the entire central area then spread to all zones. Countless players raised their heads together, especially those who just learnt that the 6th Movent had been taken, an expression of surprise cast over their faces.
God, lambs and crow,
Had fun playing on the cliff together.
They sang and danced,
Flowers blood in the stone.
The god said, look
It was my flower.
One lamb ate the flower,
Let it go die quickly.
Mr. Crow appeared amidst the singing and landed on the flower rack inside the book cafe. He held his head arrogantly, and seeing Jin Cheng holding the movent again, his tone beca stubborn yet full of excitent: Player G79081, you really never let down. What do you want this ti? The great Mr. Crow is looking forward to it.
Jin Cheng smiled and greeted him: Then can I announce my laws now?
Mr. Crow flicked his wings: Of course.
Jin Cheng: I command: The number of points that the players in every zone have to hand in will be reduced by one-third each month. The prices in official dicine stores, training grounds and other service-related establishnts will be reduced by half.
Hearing this, Mr. Crow didnt jump around, but he glanced at Jin Cheng and seed to find it very boring. But Jin Cheng never violated any rules in using the [Twelve Movents], so he could only reply casually: Accepted.
Jin Cheng: I command: Anyone who kills in Yong Ye City will be put in jail together with their victim.
Mr. Crow finally got a little interested when he heard the word jail, so he tilted his head and replied readily: Accepted.
The first two were Lin Yandongs proposals, which Jin Cheng accepted without any complaints. Lin Yandong was a little curious about the next command.
Tang Cuo and Miao Qi also looked at him, and outside the book cafe, many players were searching for the source of the music. It wouldnt be long before the entire Yong Ye City placed their attention on this place.
Jin Cheng: I command: Abolish the punishnt for suicide. Those who commit suicide will go directly to the karma serving process.
Mr. Crow imdiately changed his expression: No! This is impossible! G79081, you are challenging the supre authority of Yong Ye City!
Is it really impossible? Jin Chengs expression remained unchanged. He even looked into Mr. Crows eyes and asked back: This is the 6th Movent. Are you sure it has no such authority?
You! Mr. Crow was lost for words..
Mr. Crow didnt fancy cowardly players who ended their own life. He also didnt fancy this nasty 79801 who really liked to do such unpleasant things!
He was so angry he jumped back and forth!
In fact, Jin Cheng was also not sure. Although the 6th Movent had great authority, all the laws he wanted to make this ti were aid at the entire Yong Ye City, thus covering a wide range. The 11th Movent he used last ti basically only covered East Cross Street.
Luckily, after hopping around for a while, Mr. Crow nodded reluctantly.
Accepteddddd! He just wanted to peck Jin Cheng.
Totally out of his expectation, Jin Cheng still had sothing else to say: I command
Mr. Crow hurriedly interrupted: How can there be any more?! You shut up, youve already used it up!
Jin Cheng smiled: Is it really?
Mr. Crow: Whatever the great Mr. Crow says is true. You treacherous, shaless player, you dare to doubt my authority!
Jin Cheng remained unflinching: I want two of your feathers.
Mr. Crow: In your dream!
Jin Cheng imdiately turned his head to tell Tang Cuo: He wont give them to .
Tang Cuo: That ans he violates the rules of Yong Ye City.
Jin Cheng: Youre right.
Tang Cuo: Uhm.
Jin Cheng: If he doesnt give them to , Yong Ye City will definitely pluck all his feathers as punishnt.
Mr. Crow jumped around even more frantically: You two damn shaless players! You dont know your boundary! The great Mr. Crow wont go bald, its you who will go bald! I curse you to be bald in this life and all your next lives!
Crow was so angry he could die.
So angry his feathers started falling out.
But Mr. Crows wings were tied. Jin Chengs request didnt exceed the authority of the 6th Movent. He wanted to scare Jin Cheng away, but Jin Cheng didnt buy it at all. Jin Cheng was absolutely not afraid of the crow.
If he refused to give Jin Cheng two feathers, the one who violated Yong Ye Citys rules would beco Mr. Crow himself, which would be very bad. Worse than him going bald.
Hm! Mr. Crow breathed out heavily, but in the end he still plucked two feathers with his mouth and threw them to Jin Cheng. The mont Jin Cheng caught the feathers, Mr. Crow vanished imdiately. He didnt give Jin Cheng a chance to make any more requests, only leaving behind a fierce sentence
You wait and see!
Lin Yandong looked up with a smile, and at this mont, many players were swarming outside the book cafe. Luckily he had told Miao Qi to close the door ahead of ti, so these people could only crowd behind the windows and peek at the situation through the glass. Frightened by Jin Chengs infamous reputation, they didnt dare to get too close.
Like boiling water, the crowds noise filled the entire space.
Jin Cheng, its Jin Cheng again!
It really is him!
How could it be that hes using the movent again? There was no sign of it coming at all!
Also, theres Lin Yan Dong. Have they beco allies?
F**k, this is a big deal
The glass couldnt block all the sounds. Lin Yandong completely saw through Jin Chengs purpose behind choosing this location, but he decided to push the boat along and walk together with Jin Cheng in this muddy water.
Lin Yandong knew Jin Cheng wouldnt allow him to hide behind the scene forever. This young man was a cunning one who wouldnt want to stand on the losing side.
Ding!
The 6th Movent has been detected, the holder is G79081.
The laws are within the permissible authority. They are accepted and will take effect imdiately.
An announcent will be made to the entire city.
The system announcent temporarily suppressed the noise outside. Listening to the new laws, so people were dumbfounded, so stirred up more noise while so were simply excited. All sorts of reactions could be seen throughout the city.
Inside the book cafe, Jin Cheng picked up the coffee cup as though holding a glass of high-end red wine, and he smiled at the players outside the window. He still carried the look of an invincible boss, elegant yet a little devious at the sa ti.
Sitting by the window was Tang Cuo.
Raising his eyes, Tang Cuo caught sight of Jin Chengs smiling face, the scar on his cheek revealing a hint of silent wildness. Tang Cuo suddenly felt thirsty and took a sip from his cup, his expression as calm as usual.
Jin Cheng sat very close to him. Their unconcealed intimacy seed to give Lin Yandong a few thoughts.
But Lin Yandong wasnt one who liked to ruin the mood. He naturally looked away from Tang Cuo and said to Jin Cheng: I didnt expect your last command.
Jin Cheng: Escape can also be a way to solve the problem, cant it? Between survival and death, I choose freedom.
