Volume 2 Rashomon of Yomi Hirasaka Chapter 14 Extra Income
During the next few days, preparations proceeded in full swing, as if nothing of note had happened at all.
Players and many shrine walkers arrived at this place that looked like a paradise. Some appeals appeared in the player forum. After all, there were very few places in this damn world where you could get supernatural powers. A place like Hirasaka, which was full of "experts", was naturally a popular place for players to go on quests, so it was natural for them to gather some players.
Coupled with the ubiquitous sightseeing tourists and backpackers, the town of Hirasaka, which had a permanent population of just over a thousand, quickly reached tens of thousands of people in a short period of time. Of course, according to the forum situation, the total population of players is estimated to be less than 20 people. However, compared to the appearance of a few big cats and small cats when the server was first launched, it can be said that it has now gained a certain popularity.
Well, it just gained a certain degree of popularity.
There were only a dozen people who participated in a call for participation posted on the forum. Li Lin really wanted to cover his face and sigh at this miserable situation.
"But Hirasaka is really picturesque. There is no such beautiful place in reality. Those artificially cultivated things are just not as good as natural ones."
"When you say this, do you realize that these things are electronic signals?"
"Haha, who cares? As long as it looks good, that's fine."
The player that Li Lin met through the Hirasaka post laughed and waved his hand, signaling Li Lin not to worry about those details.
"But it turns out that the old players in the internal beta are reliable. I originally wanted to go to the forbidden area to see the scenery, but these people said they would not let me in no matter what, and I couldn't beat them, so I had to hire people to do the dungeon. But it's worth it. Look at the scenery, it's so beautiful."
Standing on the edge of the cliff and looking at the rolling sea of clouds, the player took a deep breath in ecstasy.
The "landscape party" exists in every era. They are not keen on any game wars, and are not familiar with those messy backgrounds, but they know all kinds of landscapes and the stories behind them, which also gives these people quite rich background experience.
Some people think these people are just boring and a waste of time, but relatively speaking, everyone is killing time in the game, so who is nobler than who? So when this guy who looks like a steamed bun came to the door and offered quite interesting props, Li Lin agreed immediately and killed everyone in the mountain village not far from Hirasaka.
Of course, he insisted that these people were robbers, and Li Lin did see a lot of murder weapons and skulls when he killed people at night, but how much of it was real and how much was fake, Li Lin was too lazy to study it carefully. This kind of thing has never been within his consideration. It is better to say that what makes Li Lin a little unhappy is that he killed more than a hundred people for blood sacrifice, but in the end he got nothing. The legend degree in the subspace has increased a little.
But what does Li Lin need this thing for? Can this thing be used to make a living? Can it give him some skills?
"Don't be so sad all the time. You don't look like a cyborg. It's rare to find someone who looks like this naturally. Have some confidence. Your face alone is better than many cyborgs. Aren't you interested in being a host or something?"
"No. I have absolutely no interest. And when will you give me the props you promised me?"
"You are such an impatient person. Take it."
The steamed bun-like man shrugged indifferently, reached out from the player space and took out two stacks of things that looked like tiles and handed them to Li Lin.
"Fragmentation mines, convex surface facing the enemy, soul sensing ability, and extra damage to spirits. The place where I originally lived was a spirit city. It was okay in the morning, but it was really scary at night. After I became a warehouse manager, I used these things to commit suicide and ran away. I haven't tested the power yet, you can try it when the time comes."
"It's okay. I've seen this model before. There's this thing in the university armory. But I'm a little interested in the equipment you have. Let's exchange it if necessary. I have a dagger that will cause thirty points of damage as long as it is inserted into the flesh, and a few bottles of acid whose damage is unknown, but it is definitely fatal. What do you have?"
"I don't have anything good...ah, do you need the Spiritual Automatic Rifle? You don't need to reload, just kill people. An average NPC has about thirty to fifty rounds of bullets. I've tried it a few times. I still have three hundred rounds in the magazine, but the damage is a bit low, not very good against people."
"Three daggers and two bottles of acid in exchange for your automatic rifle?"
"Done. Ah, by the way, kill me, my resurrection point is set here, I'm too lazy to run around the map, if you kill me a few more times and destroy the resurrection point, I'll just teleport out. Thanks."
"You're welcome."
Looking at this generous fat man, Li Lin rarely smiled.
And when he really got it in his hands, he found that the automatic rifle was more powerful than he thought. If it was ordinary shooting damage, it was even stronger than his Silver Dawn two-handed sword. In this regard, the scenery party fat man said that the gun is definitely stronger than the sword. Although Li Lin denied this, he didn't say much because he took advantage of it.
After a friendly prop exchange, the fat man posed in various poses on the edge of the cliff. Li Lin also took the opportunity to try out the feel of the weapon, and shot directly at the fat man's forehead from a distance. After killing him several times, the fat man was no longer seen. It was estimated that he was forced to move out of the nearby area after reaching the upper limit of the number of resurrections in a short period of time. However, this way of traveling was not the first time Li Lin had seen it. Although he had done it himself, it was still a bit novel when he saw others doing it.
"So there really is no benefit in killing players...He, come and pick up the equipment. Prepare to go back."
"yes……"
Looking at the number of bullets marked on the automatic rifle, Li Lin shook his head, then called the little girl next to the boulder to come over and pack up their things to prepare to go back.
The girl, who had recently gotten used to being a mobile backpack, looked at the place where the fat man had just stayed with numb eyes. She picked up some of the remaining supplies with an unacceptable look on her face, and walked back to Hirasaka along the path with Li Lin.
At the foot of the mountain, in the village where the guards lived, all the bodies were neatly fixed in place with nails sticking out of them as if they were still alive. This was what the fat player requested, hoping to pose for a photo to show how simple the people were in this place, and how it felt like a paradise. As a native, he listened to their conversation, and there was nothing else in his mind except the endless coldness.
This is the player.
He glanced at the corpse that was fixed in place as if still alive, then numbly turned his eyes away and followed the figure in front of him.
After all, after a few days of mental training, this was not the first time she had seen such a thing. From the initial shock and disbelief to the current numbness, only a few days had passed. This was the adaptability of human beings.
