It's a really strange sense of déjà vu...
Similar speculations have emerged in a residential building next to a university more than a thousand kilometers away.
[ The Evergreen Tree ] took off its helmet, transforming from a dragon trainer into a calm and experienced professor.
He was also thinking about similar things, and in his report two days ago, he had already reported on the battle and several possible scenarios.
The battle that took place in the first half of the night confirmed some of his suspicions.
Even though we were two students who weren't very brave, we would still kill people in this game, and we didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with it. We didn't feel any normal disgust when we saw the so-called severed limbs.
But after the game was over, I felt there were some problems.
As expected, the mastermind behind this "game" was more powerful than he had imagined.
But returning to this battle, is it actually hinting at anything?
Is it a display of manipulating cognitive power? Or a warning?
Or perhaps, the game's storyline has simply reached this point?
Li Yinhua wasn't sure, but he knew he would have to write a report again at dawn.
Because the official team of " World of Disorder " demonstrated a powerful ability to infiltrate the internet, starting from the third day of submitting daily reports, his reporting method changed from online to paper reports, which made it impossible for him to type on his phone or computer in the dark.
In the midst of his brainstorming session, the helmet in his hand suddenly vibrated.
He put his helmet back on and noticed a new notification on the screen: [Body Upgrade Completed].
Soon the Evergreen Tree opened its eyes on the spiral steps.
Although the game blocked out most of the pain and discomfort, sleeping on the steps for an hour still caused his neck to twist unnaturally to the left, resulting in a slight stiff neck.
At this moment, like many other players around him, [ Evergreen Tree ] also had multiple prompts pop up in front of him, indicating that he should allocate attribute points.
The initial base attribute of the [ Evergreen Tree ] is 4376, and he didn't hesitate much about this part.
As an elderly person in real life, the professor also longs to return to his youth and feel the vibrant energy he once had.
Therefore, he chose to increase his Constitution to 10 points, and then allocated the remaining 2 points to Agility.
As for power... he wanted to conduct some experiments in this world, so power didn't seem to be that important.
When it came to allocating the two special attributes, just as the professor had said before falling into a coma, he had already planned how to allocate the points for the special attributes.
At that moment, he did not hesitate to change his Psionic Energy Compatibility from 0 to 2. As a practitioner of science, the professor also wanted to see just how chaotic the underlying logic of another world could be, and that should start with Psionic Energy.
After adding the points, the professor found [ Lion Hidden in the Eyes ] in the chat box and planned to follow up with this person to get their experience using the "Dragon Series" drugs.
Players who leveled up were as excited as toddlers who had just learned to walk, especially those who had chosen Psionic Energy Compatibility as their special attribute.
For them, the systems of plants, animals, and machines are all comprehensible, but Psionic Energy...
They didn't know if it was the Psionic Energy they had imagined, or something closer to magic.
In short, some people have already started trying to recite a certain Unforgivable Curse from Harry Potter, wanting to see if they can kill their companions on the spot.
Once these lively characters had readjusted to their current physical condition, Ed pointed out in the direction outside the church and said:
"Many townspeople are waiting for you outside. The church is about to undergo renovations, so please leave for a moment."
The players, who were still locked in a life-or-death struggle, were overjoyed. Many of them had obtained the new item [ Dungeon Challenge Ticket ] and were eager to know how similar Ed's remodeled church would be to the previous battles.
After the last player left, Ed was the only living person left in the entire church.
Finally, it's quiet.
Ed snapped his fingers, and the Aberration Boston Ivy immediately covered every entrance and exit of the church from the inside out, completely sealing it off.
The priests who had been hung outside as a form of public humiliation were quickly dragged back by the vines and returned to the church through the rooftop entrance.
Looking at the twenty-one teru teru bozu dolls moving freely in front of him without any wind, Ed felt like he was looking a bit like a villain.
Being a villain is fine, it's better than being turned into a sashimi pie.
He pointed to a pile of things in the corner and asked:
"Whose are these?"
The half-dead priests mustered their strength and looked at the pile of junk. Soon, several large green caterpillars began to wriggle.
Ed removed the gags from their mouths, and the priests said timidly:
"It's ours."
Ed looked toward the corner where he had just searched the private rooms of several priests—a maracas, a tambourine, an instrument that looked like a lute, a strangely shaped harp, and a peculiar wind instrument.
It's pretty comprehensive...
For a prisoner serving a true life sentence like this, privacy was no longer a concern for Ed. He looked at the relatively young priests and asked with a puzzled expression:
"You guys can play music?"
A priest explained:
"We were sent here from the provincial capital, which is also the governor's office, in the same batch. When we were young, we studied some hymn playing at the academy there."
"Oh? It's a band."
Ed's lips twitched as he looked at the priests:
How much is left now?
As if sensing a chance to survive, the priest shouted:
"We haven't forgotten a thing, not at all! I can still play at least four arias and three hymns. If you spare our lives, we're willing to play for you anytime..."
The other priests nodded in agreement, and Ed waved his hand, saying:
"No need for that. I'm not interested in hymns, but... my Dungeon needs some background music, and the players want to hear something different. I think you can play it."
"What?"
Apart from Yiden, who was in charge, the other priests had no idea what they were about to face, and naturally did not understand what a " Dungeon " was.
However, some priests felt resentful upon hearing that some of their companions seemed to have received special treatment.
Actually, they had nothing to be resentful about, because given the players' personalities, it was impossible for any creature other than themselves to survive in the Dungeon when they cleared it.
What does it mean that musicians are not killed in battle?
Giving you a quick death at the end is the greatest mercy we can show.
