Chapter 94 – The Bones of Dalet

As the train moved forward, the sound of everything around us slowly became less.

 

Eventually even the roar of the train fades away, the light around it fades, even the arrangements in the car begin to blur more and more, and everything gradually begins to transform towards the pitch blackness and emptiness of nothingness.

 

The players understood that this was a sign that they were about to pass.

 

A wave of elation rose from every heart that they had survived one more game!

 

Di Yifugui stopped talking about Brother Xiao's exploits before the other players could look at Xiao Lan with longing and admiration.

 

Behold, the light of the players, the legendary hope, the mighty man called Brother Xiao.

 

The look in their eyes was so lingering that it gave Xiao Lan goose bumps.

 

Di Yifugui walked up to Xiao Lan: ” Brother Xiao, can we contact each other again?”

 

Xiao Lan nodded, “Sure.”

 

When he finished, he expected Di Yifugui to hand him some sort of contact prop, but instead he only met a hopeful look.

 

Xiao Lan: “……”

 

At this moment, he was suddenly blessed with the understanding that these were the eyes of poverty.

 

Considering Di Yifugui's fist-fighting, output-all-yelling, flyswatter-wielding combat heroics and the KPI system that requires members to turn in props for reincarnation, it's clear that this is a poor man with few props.

 

Just like Xiao Lan.

 

Xiao Lan: “Ahem ……
how about this, I'll leave you my address at the player's quarters, you and Zhao Xiaohe can come to me if you need help in the future.”

After that he whispered his address to Di Yifugui in her ear.

 

“Yes Brother Xiao!” Di Yifugui's eyes lit up and she couldn't help but speak faster as she saw the darkness spread out, “Brother Xiao can you sign this for me, I want to take it back and share it with Xiao He!”

 

Xiao Lan awkwardly but unobtrusively declines her request.

 

This one is really too embarrassing, no, not at all.

As darkness finally fell around them, Xiao Lan waved goodbye to a regretful Di Yifugui.

 

“Ding dong–“

 

“Congratulations to player Xiao Lan for clearing the game 'Subway Station 13'”

 

—

 

With a system prompt, Xiao Lan returns to the familiar darkness once again, and he and Luo head back to the Advent world without stopping too long.

 

After the darkness of the metro station, Xiao Lan's room was bright and warm when she returned to the player's room.

 

Xiao Lan slumped on the sofa to demonstrate the standard method of drying a salted fish.

 

Luo went to the side to prepare tea and snacks for him.

 

When Luo arrived at the sofa with the prepared tea, he saw Xiao Lan sitting upright on the sofa, staring at a black box, he put down his cup of tea and the plate with the snacks and went over to Xiao Lan: “What's happening, sir?”

 

Xiao Lan looked at the [Random Rare Prop Gift Box] on the table with grave eyes and said in a deep voice, “This is the moment to decide the fate ……”

 

He has never even won another bottle in his life, buying a lottery ticket is a waste of money, he has never even picked up a wallet while walking down the road, and this random gift box is simply the nemesis of his non-competitive life.

When you think about the random items he's gotten before, there's almost nothing that works, and even something as useless as [Zhang Dong's autograph].

 

Even the passive effects of his skills have been acting like they're broken lately, not even a hair has dropped for him.

 

“Do you need help?” Luo sat down next to Xiao Lan.

 

Xiao Lan looked at Luo, then at his black hand, and decisively pushed the [Random Rare Prop Gift Box] in front of him.

 

Luo glanced at the box and smiled slightly at Xiao Lan: “Please give me your blessing, sir.”

 

Then he held out a hand towards Xiao Lan, the black shadow of his hand as a black glove dissipating to reveal his long, strong, knuckled palm.

 

Xiao Lan looks at the hand resting silently in front of him, his eyes slightly confused, obviously not understanding Luo's meaning.

 

“Blow on it.” Luo's voice was low, with a touch of compulsion.

 

Xiao Lan didn't know what was wrong with him and blew on Luo's hand as he wished.

After blowing he suddenly felt a little hot in his ears, this action is not a little ……
that what ……
he glanced at Luo, found Luo was not paying attention to himself before he was relieved.

 

Luo closes his palm as if he has really got something, then he uses this hand to open the black box on the table.

 

In the next instant, a light flashed and the box on the table disappeared and was replaced by a long white object.

 

[Name: Dalet's Bone (Rare item, bound when picked up)

 

[Ability: Attacks with Dalet's Flame, which burns all targets and can be withdrawn by the wielder, with a bonus to the wielder's own combat power].

 

[Form: Stick, Blade, Whip]

“I am fortunate to have your blessing, thanks to you.” Luo's tone was tinged with laughter.

 

“Hiss…” Xiao Lan drew in a breath of cold air.

 

He did not feel that it was his own work at all, Xiao Lan looked at Luo with eyes full of amazement, what kind of earthly lucky dog is this guy ? Why did Luo open up such a powerful weapon at first glance, while he himself ……
is not to mention the heartache of the non-coms.

 

Only after his amazement did he reach for the props on the table and take a closer look.

 

In its rawest form it resembles a stick, with some uneven bone joints and no pattern or decoration, and appears to be…

 

Like a broomstick, or the bare kind.

 

I have to say, this item is a perfect match for Xiao Lan's poor temperament, no wonder there is no deduction for poverty value when you get it, and there is really no deduction for poverty value in this unpretentious appearance.

 

Xiao Lan: “……”

 

Forget it, what's the point of looking so flashy when you can do it? Anyway, his other weapon [which is a dagger covered in poison] looks like nothing more than a stainless steel fruit knife, Xiao Lan reassures himself.

 

He swung the Dalet's Bone and found that the weight was just right for the force he needed to attack, and each swing felt great, bringing him back to his street domination days.

 

When switched to whip form, [Bones of Dalet] takes on the form of a nine-sectioned whip, which is very nimble and can be very useful when you need to restrict your opponent's movement.

 

Unfortunately, Xiao Lan does not know how to use the whip himself and will need to practice in the training ground before he can master it.

Xiao Lan switches to his blade form again, and the [Bones of Dalet] transforms into a long knife with a long, slender body, similar to a goose feather blade, the whole of which is made of bone, but the blade is sharp and sharp.

 

He pulled a blade and was trying to find something to test it on when Luo tossed over a familiar decorative apple, which Xiao Lan had placed on his head while he was unconscious after coming out of flat 404.

It felt as if he was secretly holding a grudge.

 

An unaware Xiao Lan swung his knife and split the fake apple in half.

 

Then a deep purple flame rose from the cut of the apple, which seemed to spread with irresistible force towards the rest of the apple, gradually covering the whole apple and soon turning it into ashes.

 

The smell of burning still lingers in the air.

 

This Dalet flame seems a bit strong! Xiao Lan's eyes were filled with surprise.

 

Underground Station 13 didn't give him much poverty value, but the boost to combat power from getting such a prop was significant.

 

And judging from the description of the item, the “burn all targets” must include ghosts and monsters as well.
Although the effect of the flame will definitely vary depending on the strength of the opponent, it's still quite powerful, right?

 

Now he's finally not just a physical attacker, which is a welcome relief.

 

Xiao Lan can't wait to go to the training ground and try his hand at fighting.

 

As he watched Xiao Lan's excitement, Luo took his cup of tea and sipped it gently, not saying a word but following Xiao Lan's every movement with his eyes, as if he was trying to carve everything he did into his heart.

 

After Xiao Lan's excitement, he finally put away the [Bones of Dalet] with reluctance.

 

That's when the [Plastic Friendship] in the storage space came through with a contact alert.

 

“Xiao Lan Xiao Lan, you're out of the game~” Wang Taidi's voice came from across the room, cheerful and happy as ever.

 

Xiao Lan was a little surprised, “How did you know I would be out now?”

 

The time players take to enter each game is unknown – after all, some copies are long and others take only a few hours, and it is difficult for others to predict exactly how long they will take.

“Hey, I've dialed you 87 times before and I can't get through to you, so you must still be in the game.” Wang Taidi said.

Xiao Lan: “What's so urgent about me?”

 

Wang Taidi looked excited: “Not really, I just wanted to tell you that I've been promoted to an intermediate player~~”

 

Xiao Lan also smiled: “Congratulations!”

 

After three years, Wang Taidi is excited to finally be an intermediate player and can't wait to share his joy with someone.

 

Wang Taidi: “Hey, I think you must be responsible for this, after you traded me the Demeter's Blade, my fortune became better, especially recently, I made a lot of money one after another, then my skills activated, and I upgraded straight away!”

 

Xiao Lan asked him, “How does it feel to have your skills activated?”

 

Wang Taidi paused for a moment: “Well ……”

 

Why does this expression not look very happy? Xiao Lan asks, “What's wrong?”

 

Wang Taidi picked the small curly hair: “is ……
skill is quite good, but use a bit to cost me 10 million, and the higher the difficulty if I want to achieve, the greater the consumption, if the wealth is less than 100 million, the skill will go back to the activation can not be activated.
“

 

Xiao Lan: “……”

 

The world of the rich is such a difficult place to navigate.

 

Wang Taidi: “But recently my brother has been quite happy, I haven't seen him so happy for a long time, even when I accidentally told someone that he had moved another box of booster pads into his room he didn't get very angry and it didn't hurt as much as before when he punched me.”

 

Apart from Wang Taidi, there is probably no one else in the world who could see the joy in his brother's expressionless face.

 

Xiao Lan nodded, “Of course he's happy, you'll be in much better shape after your upgrade, so he won't have to worry about accidentally killing you when he beats you up.”

Wang Taidi's expression went blank, his little curls drooping: “……”

 

You make such good sense that I can't even argue with it.

 

It turns out that the truth about your own brother's happiness is so plain and simple ……

 

The author has something to say.
