26: On Lao Liu’s Self-cultivation

In the game lounge, Luo Ci, dressed neatly in punk attire, sat on the sofa given after the update, checking out the new features while arguing with the rich lady Fenghuo.

After the game was updated, an arena competition mode was added, which rekindled the fighting spirit of some high-level PVP players.

After all, compared to the team and individual competition modes with ever-changing environments, arena competition can better satisfy one’s desire to win and defeat, and can also better demonstrate one’s true combat power.

What he didn’t expect was that the rich lady Fenghuo was also a pvp player. When this mode came online, her first reaction was to pull Luo Ci to talk.

There is no way. The level is suppressed by Luoci. It is impossible for me not to make a comeback in the arena ranking…

Fenghuolangyan: Little brother Luoci, have you made up your mind?

Luo Ci: Let me talk about the benefits first. I want to reach level 10 as soon as possible.

Beacon Fire and Smoke: Aren’t you jealous of the rewards for being the first in the arena? Special store exchange coupons, special currencies, advanced props, all of which are good things~

Luo Ci: …To be honest, I don’t think it’s necessary.

There is no way. Whether the reward is attractive or not depends on the person’s fault, right?

The rewards for the arena rankings are given out once a week, which is indeed tempting. But that is for ordinary players, but Luo Ci is a lucky guy, and these dead rewards can be easily obtained by him if he works harder, right?

Fenghuo Langyan: You kid…you should care about pvp. This season’s competition is in pvp mode.

Yell!

Luo Ci frowned. This was something he had not considered enough.

There was no way, he had never played against other players online, and had forgotten that this was actually an online game. In this case, the significance of the arena was not just competition, but also a pre-match test.

How much is exposed, how much is hidden, will have a direct impact on the competition…

Luo Ci: Okay then, come now?

Fenghuo Langyan: Yes, you and I just need to press match at the same time. The matchmaking mechanism of the arena is based on the ranking list. You and I are the top two, and the probability of meeting each other when matched together is 100%.

Luo Ci: Okay, let’s start.

[Matching started…Matching completed!]

[Begin teleporting to the arena! Start level balancing… Start the field barrier…]

[Are spectators allowed?]

“……Yes.”

[Random/Specified Venue?]

“Let’s make it random, it’s fair.”

[Players Fenghuo Langyan and Luo Ci made the same choice, the tournament starts normally… Venue, desert…]

[It is detected that the player is participating in the ring match for the first time. The current rules are: There is no time limit in the ring mode, but there is a venue limit. The game ends when any player’s health value reaches zero…]

After the rules were announced, Luo Ci’s feet sank, and the next second he was on an endless desert. A hundred meters away, Fenghuo Rich Lady also appeared at the same time, looking at Luo Ci with a smile on her face.

“Little brother Luoci, do you want me to show mercy?”

“…No need.”

Luo Ci took a step forward, and the purple and pink cat-like blasting pistol completed the three actions of loading, aiming and shooting in an instant.

The rich woman looked a little surprised, but she quickly came to her senses. She swung the folding fan in her hand and actually deflected the bullet that was close at hand. But the next moment, an explosion sounded, and a large cloud of dust was instantly raised.

“Ahem…Brother Luoci, your gun is E-class, right?”

“Ah.”

Glancing at the wealthy woman who was using a fan to dispel the dust, whose leather coat was still spotless, Luo Ci was a little surprised when he responded.

As expected of a rich woman, Fenghuo Langyan’s skill and item bars must be full. Luo Ci glanced at her half-filled slots and formed a rough judgment of the battle.

The next second, he swung his arm, loaded the pistol again and pulled the trigger twice in succession.

Fenghuo rich woman didn’t waste any more words and walked over with elegant steps. Although he was cautious about Luo Ci, he didn’t lose his manners.

The sand and dust obscured the vision like a smoke bomb, and with the continuous pulling of the pistol trigger, the view of the beacon fire was completely blocked.

As a novice who was less than level 10, she naturally did not have the corresponding skill card to solve the visual problem, which left her with no place to use her energy. She could only wait for Luo Ci to come to her…

She glanced at the health bar, feeling a little depressed. Explosive bullets were area damage, and Luo Ci would change his position every time he fired, so she had no way of confirming his position.

If this goes on, she might be scratched to death!

“Little brother Luo Ci… why are you so obscene?!”

There was no reply, and the sound of gunfire continued. In the next second, a vague shadow appeared behind Fenghuo. With a smile on his lips, Fenghuo waved his folding fan and slashed towards the shadow.

But in the next second, Luo Ci’s shadow disappeared out of thin air, and then a negative status appeared on the status bar of Fenghuolangyan.

“…Huh? What kind of shameless skill is this!?”

[Negative status: Sticky between legs, continuing…]

[Negative status: Hot and dry feeling, continuing…]

[Negative status: …Continuing…]

Three negative states that made her blush appeared, which made Fenghuo Langyan clamp her legs together and cover her lower abdomen, while her cheeks quickly turned red. What was even more terrifying was that she felt wet between her legs!

Fortunately, there was dust blocking the view, otherwise she would have lost all her face!

“Luo Ci…I will never fight with you again!”

As the rich lady Fenghuo raised her angry voice, the victory notification automatically sounded on the Luoci side.

The smoke of war…are you giving up?

“What’s going on? Is the negative effect of Misty Auspicious Cloud so strong?”

Luo Ci stroked his chin, looking at the three random positive effects on his status bar: [Speed ​​Up], [Attack Power Increase], and [Continuous Life Recovery], and couldn’t help but fall into deep thought…

After a while, Luo Ci came out and went to the rest room.

Fenghuo Langyan was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, his face flushed. When he saw Luo Ci coming in, he glared at him unhappily and said sternly, “Little brother Luo Ci, explain what skill that is?”

“Um… a skill that randomly grants a negative buff. But Sister Fenghuo, what buff did you get? How…”

“Shut up! Don’t mention this matter again!”

The folding fan in Fenghuo’s hand snapped shut, and her beautiful eyes looked at Luo Ci with anger. Regardless of whether he was lying or not, she no longer had any reason to beat Luo Ci, so she just let it go.

But if Luo Ci brings it up again, she wouldn’t mind letting a few older sisters in the union beat Luo Ci up!

Luo Ci scratched his head, and knew that Fenghuo Rich Lady must have been given some unspeakable negative effects. Glancing at her still rosy face, Luo Ci also had some guesses in his mind, and felt a little sorry.

After thinking for a while, he ordered two top-notch drinks and handed one to the angry wealthy woman.

“Um… the negative effects are random, don’t mind.”

“Forget it. I’m not going to blame you. It’s just that next time I fight you, I will forbid you from watching…”

The wealthy woman sighed, rubbed her fiery red hair with resentment, and her amber eyes were filled with helplessness.

This guy…did he do this on purpose? He wouldn’t recognize me, would he?

27: White-haired little fool

Glancing at Luo Ci’s face from the corner of her eye, the wealthy woman sighed, then tapped Luo Ci’s head with her fan and said seriously.

“Don’t fight casually in the future. I don’t think you care about the rewards. As for the information, I will help you collect it. Brother Luoci, just concentrate on leveling up.”

Luo Ci raised his eyebrows, his eyes full of surprise: “Sister Fenghuo, you don’t have to be like this, right? I feel like I can still fight occasionally…”

“Okay, we’ve known each other for a while, and I know your personality. If you don’t like something, just don’t do it.”

The rich woman shrugged, and for some reason there was a hint of intimacy in her alluring amber eyes.

“…Well, I’ll send some supplies to the union from now on, and that’ll be my reward.”

No merit, no reward. Luo Ci doesn’t like to eat free rice. Although it’s a rich woman’s soft rice, one thing is one thing.

There is a saying that goes, everything has already been secretly marked with a price, just waiting to be paid…

The rich lady Fenghuo seemed to be very familiar with Luoci. She smiled and took a sip of red wine elegantly: “It’s up to you. I’m not forcing you, little brother.”

“Hmm…” Luo Ci nodded without refutation.

After a moment of silence, Luo Ci drank the wolfberry tea in his arms and said, “I’m going to level up first, Sister Fenghuo…”

“Go ahead, I’ll taste the wine for a while.” Fenghuo waved her fan and told Luo Ci to leave quickly. She felt a stomachache when she saw this kid with such unreliable skills.

However, just as Luo Ci was about to leave the room, the rich lady Feng Huo stopped him, “Little brother Luo Ci, I have something to say that may not be pleasant to hear…”

“What’s wrong, Sister Fenghuo? If you have something to say, just tell me.”

Luo Ci was stunned. He always felt that the rich woman who put down her wine glass and crossed her legs and looked at him had a sense of déjà vu.

Fenghuo sighed and said, “Little brother Luoci, if your efforts don’t get the rewards you want, I hope you won’t be sad. Believe me, you will have gained something more important by then.”

“?”

Luo Ci didn’t understand why, but he nodded. His intuition told him that what Fenghuo rich woman said was not aimless, and he always felt that… it was the future.

But what is she referring to? I can’t guess…

“I understand, Sister Fenghuo. I will do my best and leave the rest to fate. I won’t blame anyone.”

Luo Ci left, and the rich woman Fenghuo lost her initial elegance. She lay down on the sofa in a Ge You-like posture.

Acting is too tiring, it’s more comfortable to just slack off.

“Ah… I have no more game coins. I really want to drink… It seems I need to ask Luna for reimbursement…”

After leaving the lounge, Luo Ci still hadn’t figured out what the rich lady Fenghuo meant, so he simply stopped thinking about it and started the dungeon directly.

Compared with general equipment, the time ratio of the sleep-type gaming cabin in dream mode is quite different.

Many big guys would specifically buy sleeping-type game cabins to level up and acquire equipment, but the problem was that even with sleeping-type game cabins, some big guys were still left behind by him and the rich lady Fenghuo at a terrifying level.

For example, Luoci is level 8, Fenghuo is level 6, the third is level 5… and when it comes to the tenth place, it is only a stifling level 3.

This is enough to show how difficult it is to level up in this game. It is not difficult to understand why the previous games in Luoci were all killed by NPCs.

The players are too bad, it’s not Luoci’s fault!
