Love Apartment (15)
/Text: Green Plum Sauce
Li Tao cried.
While his heart was moved, the kindness he received at that moment was comparable to the light of Buddha, and he burst into tears.
It's not like Li Tao hasn't encountered other bosses in the previous dungeons, but in this infinite game, just being alive is already a precious thing for anyone, let alone Don't worry about other people's affairs.
It's enough to be grateful for those big guys to be able to pick him up while he's clearing the level, let alone expect the kind of escort that doesn't ask for anything in return.
Therefore, whether Chi Ting just said it casually because of the atmosphere or sincerely, it is absolutely precious in such an environment.
Li Tao opened his arms and was about to receive a warm hug from the heart: "Brother Chi, you are my god!"
However, before he could get closer, Chi Ting held his forehead and pushed him away: "Don't come closer without wiping your tears. I'm allergic to tears."
Li Tao: "..."
He silently accepted the fact that he was disliked: "Anyway, let's make long-term plans when we go back."
The group of people walked downstairs, and the barrage in the live broadcast room was still discussing the scene just now.
[Hiss, is it my imagination? Why does it feel like this Chi Ting is more powerful than the NPC? 】
[At that moment, I felt that he was so fierce and a bit scary. Isn’t it true that big guys have such aura when they are angry? 】
[… It’s just an awakening companion item. At most it’s a little better than other newcomers, so it’s just a shitty boss. 】
【"Just"? Hi in front of you, are you "just" for me to take a look at? 】
[But they really don’t plan to go downstairs violently. The last one who went downstairs violently has already been wiped out. 】
[The group was destroyed because the force value was really not enough. I followed that group, and there were only two old, weak, sick and disabled people who could fight a little bit. 】
[MD I finally met a group that can break this 40% curse! 】
[I still feel something is wrong... Are you sure how to get downstairs is the final problem? The progress here is only 40%. Can I rush to 100% directly? 】
The last barrage passed through the live broadcast room, and the players watching suddenly calmed down.
Yes, this is only 40%. Even if it is the most critical cut-off point, it should be just like the previous part of finding rules to avoid assimilation, and just push it to 40%.
Thinking of what Li Tao said in the dungeon just now, this absurd thought came to the minds of all the viewers——
"No. 7", the designer of this dungeon, has he really thought about letting players pass the level?
In the dungeon, Chi Ting and the others had already retreated to Room 1202, and this time they also called Li Hou together.
After hearing what they found downstairs, Li Hou looked very shocked: "Fan Pengyue is dead? It's impossible. He was still with me when I went down to find Cheng Chao. He was still fine at that time."
"The blood is very fresh, it must have happened yesterday." Chi Ting said and glanced at him, "You can join us later and don't go back. Something happened to the two players downstairs. One by one, it might be your turn, so don’t worry if we’re all together.”
Li Tao finally digested the shock he received today, and followed Chi Ting to look at Li Hou: "You live upstairs in 1102, are you sure you haven't heard anything or any clues?"
Li Hou shook his head: "I seemed to have heard hurried footsteps yesterday afternoon, but the apartment has been too chaotic recently, and I didn't dare to go out and meddle in other people's business."
Li Tao originally wanted to ask how this could be considered nosy, but when the words came to his lips, he paused and did not ask.
It can only be said that having been following Chi Ting recently has confused him a bit. To put it bluntly, in the infinite game, Li Hou's attitude of not caring about himself should be the true portrayal of most players. .
Suddenly, a breath was held in his chest that could not come out or come in. Li Tao could only suppress his complicated emotions, called everyone together, and began to analyze the clues obtained so far, line by line.
But it's a pity that in the end, we haven't figured out the slightest clue yet.
After all, they found too few clues. Apart from the red name conditions required for assimilation and NPC attacks, they still couldn't find a new breakthrough point.
Sure enough, going downstairs was still the only option.
Li Tao let out a long "Ah——!", and finally grabbed his hair tightly in pain: "What a sin, if I had known, I would have entered the copy in advance! How could I be involved in such a perverted copy? Ahhh!!!”
It's a pity that he can't see the barrage in his live broadcast room.
[Damn, I really want to remind him to stay away from that Li Hou. There are actually people playing sacrifice in the dungeon these days, how evil is that? 】
[Have you never been to Li Hou’s live broadcast room? This person obviously came in after reading the guide. 】
[I haven’t even cleared this dungeon yet. Where can I get the guide? 】
[Who knows, but looking at the previous series of actions, it is clear that they were all planned before entering the game. 】
[You mean he planned to... hiss, take the initiative to enter this book before he entered it? He is so cruel to others and to himself! 】
[Tsk, what do you think? Once this is passed, it will be the first pass! It needs to be broadcast across the entire server! Who you want to team up with is not a big stepping stone, let alone the generous first pass reward. Wouldn't you be tempted? 】
[My heart is beating, but I feel like I still can’t get over the hurdle in my heart. 】
[Then you deserve not to be ranked. The reality is so cruel. 】
In the copy, everyone was still at a loss.
In the midst of all the frowning faces, Chi Ting slapped his thigh and stood up.
Everyone else looked over in unison: "Brother Chi, have you made any new discoveries?"
Chi Ting pointed to the clock hanging on the wall: "Well, I found it's time for dinner. I'll cook whatever you want to eat."
"..."
There was silence for a brief moment.
Li Tao: "Vinegar cabbage!"
Xiang Xianwan: "Pickle fish!"
Gong Jing: "Meat!"
Li Hou was stunned for a moment when the three of them announced the names of the dishes so skillfully, and then he saw Chi Ting looking over with a smile: "What about you?"
Under such gaze, Li Hou slowly twitched the corners of his mouth: "I can do anything, I'm not picky about food."
Chi Ting nodded, turned around and got into the kitchen.
He tied the apron on his body so casually and naturally. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, it would be difficult to connect the aura of fireworks surrounding him with the dangerous aura when he said "all must die" before.
The audience in the live broadcast room were also dumbfounded.
Could this be the legendary battlefield and kitchen?
Seeing Chi Ting's figure disappear by the door, the smile on Li Hou's face faded little by little.
No one paid attention to him at this time, and then looked at the other three people who were obviously looking forward to the food, with a cold sneer in their eyes.
At this point, I only know how to eat, and I really don’t seek progress.
However, it is indeed necessary to eat more good food.
After all, who knows if there will be such a good thing in the future.
His eyes moved back and forth between the three of them silently, as if he was condescendingly selecting goods that satisfied him.
At this moment, the doorbell suddenly rang.
Chi Ting was already busy in the kitchen and couldn't spare any time, so he called Li Tao from a distance and motioned for him to go over and open the door.
At this point in time, who could it be?
Li Tao exchanged glances with Gong Jing, then walked to the door and took a look through the peephole. The blood that had just returned to his face was gone in an instant.
His hand on the door handle trembled slightly, obviously he was very confused about whether to open the door.
At that moment, Li Tao had a strange feeling.
Although there was a door between him, he vaguely felt that the people outside seemed to know that he was behind the door.
Soon, his feeling was confirmed.
Li Tao saw a very subtle arc on the corner of the man's mouth outside the cat's eye, and slowly and silently mouthed six words - Zhi, Dao, you, in, behind, and in front of him.
A familiar chill suddenly rose up his spine. He wanted to retreat, but found that he had froze in place.
"What's wrong? What are you doing standing there?" Chi Ting, who was in the kitchen, finally noticed something was wrong with Li Tao and walked over strangely. He held a spatula in one hand and opened the door with just a push of the other hand. .
As a result, the moon blade outside the door appeared directly in everyone's field of vision.
Just when he met Chi Ting's gaze, a very sincere smile suddenly appeared on his expressionless face a moment ago, but his words were so natural and almost shameless: "I'm sorry, I might have to do it again today. Do you mind if I come here to have a meal with you, Mr. Chi?"
Chi Ting took one look and knew that this man must be deliberately trying to scare people again. He patted Li Tao and signaled him to go back to the house quickly. He said to Yue Ren: "Of course you don't mind, please come in."
Judging from the way Yue Ren changed his shoes when he entered the house, he was already quite familiar with being a guest.
After entering the house and taking a quick glance, he soon discovered that there was one more person in the house besides Li Tao and the others. He raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Mr. Chi's house is still as lively as ever."
This wasn't the first time that Chi Ting heard his weird and eccentric words. He just laughed it off, said "please do as you please", turned around and got into the kitchen again.
The arrival of Moon Blade undoubtedly made the originally relaxed atmosphere suddenly tense.
He sat down on the sofa. Tao and the others had already huddled in the corner far away, looking like they wanted to hide as far away as possible.
Moon Blade didn't pay any attention to this, but turned around and looked at the new man in the room with interest.
Although it was not as obvious as Li Tao and the others, Yue Ren could clearly feel Li Hou's tense state from the moment he entered the room.
And in the short period between him entering and sitting down, this person unknowingly moved to the sofa farthest away from him.
Such a move, coupled with the human instinct of body trembling at the moment when he looked at it, made Yue Ren's curiosity reach its highest point in an instant.
His smile still looked modest and decent.
"Sir, do you know me?" Yue Ren said with a warm smile, every word, as if he sincerely wanted to find out the answer, "You seem to be afraid of me, why?"
Being watched like this, Li Hou's face turned pale for a moment.
But it only took a moment for him to regain his composure: "No, this is the first time we have met."
Yue Ren's eyebrows raised slightly.
He glanced at the other person's pretending to be calm, and his meaningful final words fell heavily around the silence: "Oh, that's it."
He smiled and just watched silently.
Until, Li Hou's face finally began to turn white under the gaze.
The curvature of Yue Ren's mouth became more and more distinct.
The shadow under his feet silently extended a little further, ready to move.
