"It's all good stuff."

【Name: Joker Card】

[Type: props]

[Quality: perfect]

[Effect: When playing card or board games, you can activate "Clown's Trick" to replace one card with any card you want. Limited to 3 uses per hour.]

[Note: I have special abilities, so being able to change cards is reasonable, right? Cheating? How can having special abilities be considered cheating?]

I thought that Card Master's exclusive skill, "Duel Game," wouldn't be useful for a long time.

I never expected to find a use for it so soon.

"A guaranteed three hits to consistently inflict a debuff on the opponent, heh."

For Ji Yi, this was undoubtedly a huge boost to her strength.

At least I won't get injured again next time I fight the weakened Lone Goose.

Snapped.

Ji Yi slapped herself:

Is it glorious to defeat someone with low health? Next time, win fair and square!

I don't plan to look at the rewards anymore.

Ji Yi immediately opened the chat window with her friends.

Four out of his five friends are criticizing him.

After Zhuge Dengpao finished cursing, he immediately blocked him.

Hao Youqian's message quickly surpassed 99+ views.

Tang Hulu was crying miserably, accusing Ji Yi of being cold-blooded and heartless, and saying that he would only be appeased if he accompanied Ji Yi through a demon tower.

Chicken Leg Immortal even threatened to stop updating his works.

Ji Yi quickly replied with a chicken leg:

"Write well, I really didn't lie to you about becoming the leader."

Then, Ji Yi noticed that Miss Cat remained quiet.

Start typing.

"What are you doing?"

There was no reply from the other end.

"Angry?"

No reply.

"It's a cheating game, I had no choice but to do that to win. Here, take this."

[Gift Item: Premium Surprise Gift Box]

The other party refused your offer to give them the item.

"."

this.
She's really angry.

Did I deceive Miss Cat by taking advantage of her trust?

Wu.

My brain jolted!
An extremely terrifying thought was born in my mind.

He was so excited that his whole body began to tremble.

In a game where there is no life-or-death penalty, players engage in intense competition and confrontation.

Trust gained through long-term team dungeon runs for profit can be easily eroded.

Fraud, deception, backstabbing, and the pursuit of fame and fortune.

The ugliness of humanity will be magnified infinitely here, and at that point, trust between players will collapse.
Do they really trust their teammates to save their lives when they run raids?
Although everyone knows that this is a game without penalties and will not have any negative impact.

However, if players develop a habit of this game mode, which offers no risk and only huge profits, it can create path dependence.

One day, the competitive mode might be removed, or even a death penalty might be introduced, even if it's less severe than a normal dungeon run.

Players who are used to scheming and backstabbing.

Is it possible to regain the trust of his former comrades?
Even people who are close to each other can do it.

Can we entrust the trust of randomly matched random players?
horrible.
When Ji Yi figured this out.

Suddenly, I felt an overwhelming sense of nausea and discomfort towards multiplayer competitive games.

He didn't think he was overthinking it.

"Miss Cat, I was really wrong. I was only trying to get a bigger reward so I could make it up to you."

With that, he sent over both the [Advanced Surprise Gift Box] and the [Special Skill Card I].

The latter is a reward only available for achieving an S+ rating, and it is excellent in terms of both rarity and practicality.

The other party refused your offer to give them the item.

Is it really necessary to get this angry?
This practically gives you all the rewards for the entire game.

He played the role of a despicable clown.

The clown mask is actually embedded in his face, right?
Ji Yi wanted to say something more.

Miss Cat's Status: In progress of a dungeon quest.

"...You're running a dungeon all by yourself?"

It's far from the mandatory dungeon time yet, are you deliberately hiding from me like this?
Women's minds are truly hard to understand.

The others were angry, but after a few scoldings, they were fine.

Aside from Zhuge Dengpao's petty act of blocking me, it was clearly him who added me first.

Ji Yi began replying to the messages one by one.

He earnestly and seriously repeated what he had just thought to Tang Hulu and Chicken Leg.

As for Hao Youqian, he continued to hurl insults at Ji Yi:
"You vested interest! You finish the food first, then smash the pot and claim the food was poisoned?!"

"How could you be so selfish! Ugh! Ugh!!"

Faced with Hao Youqian's furious accusations.

Ji Yi closed the chat window.

Only then did he realize that he had received seven or eight new friend requests.

They were all people I encountered in the dungeon earlier, including even Zuiwan Guhong and Jiaoying Ge.

"I hope they're all here to criticize me."

After thinking about it, I clicked "decline" on all of them.

Next, I opened the forum post to check the players' feedback on the multiplayer competitive mode.

At this point, nearly 7 hours had passed since the update, and shorter instances would have been completed long ago.

Look around.

Almost all of them are players' experiences and feelings about the new mode.

"That was awesome! Even though we lost, it was a glorious defeat. We slaughtered everyone! It was exhilarating!"

"I almost broke up with my girlfriend while playing this game, but I won the championship!"

"No investment required, huge profits! Even losers get a consolation prize, so everyone should invest a few more times and rake in the profits!"

Looking at these contents, Ji Yi frowned deeply.

Occasionally, you can see people expressing similar views to yours, calling for vigilance.

But it was quickly overwhelmed by a wave of praise.

The post's popularity was so low that Ji Yi suspected someone was manipulating the traffic behind the scenes.

There are very few warning posts that generate much discussion, but the comments section is full of criticism.

"Dian."

"mussel."

"numb."

"I'll make sure you understand."

The poster then quickly deleted the content.

Ji Yi shook her head: "The masses are ignorant."

Actually, if it weren't for Ying's reminder, I might have been one of those celebrating. I have no right to be an expert and point fingers at the group's low intelligence.

Shut down the forum, it's unbearable to look at.

Just then, a post that had been quickly pushed to the top caught Ji Yi's eye.

"Drunkenly, I, the Lone Goose, am defeated by Ji Yi! This despicable clown has toyed with all the players!"

Click to take a look.

It was a random player who had just arrived, who angrily berated Ji Yi and recounted the general events that occurred in the dungeon "The Despicable Clown".

If Ji Yi's entry into the Magic Tower rankings only caused a brief sensation before...

The effect this time was comparable to an earthquake.

Scroll down.

Many "victims" denounced Ji Yi and recounted their experiences.

Passersby had mixed opinions about Ji Yi.

Some people think he has a strong competitive spirit, while others think he is unscrupulous and despicable.

Besides the polarized public opinion.

The crowd also had a heated discussion about Ji Yi's strength.

It truly stirred up a huge wave.

This post has taken the lead in discussion by a huge margin and it probably won't come down for several days.

"Damn, winning a dungeon run makes you so hated."

I dared not watch any longer.

Ji Yi felt agitated and simply logged out of the game.

"What kind of situation is this?"

He got out of bed.

It's midday now, and the sun is shining brightly.

I got up, ordered takeout, and checked my phone to see if the chicken leg dish had been updated.

Updated 2 minutes ago:
"Leave of absence note: My brain is injured, I need to rest."

Ji Yi frowned, sent a reward of "Alliance Leader" to the group, and commented, "No fakes allowed."

A new chapter immediately followed:
"Thank you, Dad! Thank you to reader 2019xxxxxxx for being the patron! I'll be working overtime tonight to write more!"

Ji Yi nodded in satisfaction: "As expected of the Chicken Leg Immortal Venerable, known as the 'Father of Online Novels,' he is flexible and adaptable."

Open Miss Cat's WeChat chat interface.

"I really know I was wrong. I promise I'll never lie to you again, okay?"

Send it over.

Then I opened Ms. Xie's WeChat.

I took a closer look at the photo she posted of herself with the kitten.

The kitten is so big and round.

Ji Yi typed: "Are you there? Check on the kitten."

I waited a while, but there was no reply.

Put down the phone.

The food arrived quickly.

Ji Yi picked up her takeout and added the chicken leg on WeChat while eating.

Including Tang Hulu, whom I added before today's dungeon started, I now have three players in my WeChat friends list.

"Life and interpersonal relationships have changed a lot."

Ji Yi murmured.

"Meow~"

Suddenly, a cat's meow came from outside the window.

"Ok?"

Ji Yi got up to check.

On the grass outside the window, a small, dark, furry ball crawled around, meowing.

"Why does it look so familiar?"

Ji Yi opened the window and climbed out.

They caught the kitten.

"The color of its fur, its face, its features, its cry."

Isn't that Miss Xie's cat?!

How did you sneak out?

Look around.

The neighbor's window was open, but the curtains were slightly ajar, so you couldn't see what was going on inside.

Could it be that Miss Xie lives next door and this little black cat found its way out by itself?

Is there such a coincidence in the world?

It would be too offensive to just climb through the window and go in to check.

If it really is Miss Xie, it wouldn't be good to be followed by a pervert on the spot.

Is anyone inside? Is this your cat?

He called out from the doorway.

no respond.

There's no other way, so let's close the window for this family first.

Then, Ji Yi returned via the same route.

Call Ms. Xie via WeChat.

I did not answer.

"This is how to do."

First, call a delivery service on your phone to buy cat food.

Just make sure the cat doesn't go hungry.

night.

Miss Xie still hasn't replied.

While scrolling through his phone, he saw a picture and a message that Tang Hulu had sent him:

"Brother Ji, the Sadako-themed Holy Grail I ordered arrived, and the experience is amazing! Do you need one, Brother Ji? I'll buy one for you too."

Ji Yi: "."

The flavor is quite unique.

I was just about to reply.

Text popped up in front of me.

The holder of the Twin Jade - Yin type has sent you a distress signal.

【Whether to accept】

Almost without hesitation.

"accept!"

A white light flashed before my eyes.

Ji Yi knew that, given Miss Cat's personality, she would only act in a life-or-death situation if it was urgent.

Otherwise, they wouldn't easily ask for help.

Moreover, she's still sulking, so this is bound to be a big deal.

[Entering the instance]

[Instance Name: Fake Apartment]

[Dungeon mode has been corrected: 2-player raid]

[Mission Objective: Escape the apartment]

[Limited Time: None]

[Difficulty: Nightmare]

Open your eyes.

Ji Yi woke up in the cold, thin bed.

This is a single room in an apartment, only about ten square meters, and you can see the entire apartment at a glance.

The house was simply decorated and had almost no furniture.

[Attribute values ​​are locked]

Some items are now disabled.

Some skills are disabled.

"Skills are banned too?"

The idea just came up.

[Hey hey hey! Missed me? As a bug-level ability, the universe's top data eye, you can always trust it.]

I'm too lazy to waste my breath arguing with him.

Where is Miss Cat?

[Turn left after exiting the building, room 401. Seriously, can you give me some feedback? Don't you feel surrounded by an unparalleled sense of security? Fear stems from the unknown, but with me by your side, you have everything.]

Ji Yiteng stood up abruptly, too lazy to read the rest of the nonsense.

It is nighttime now, and the outside world is shrouded in a deep blue hue. Inside the room, there is only a table lamp, its soft yellow light giving the room a nostalgic feel.

[There are files in the desk drawer containing information about your situation within the instance. Of course, if you're in a hurry, you can choose not to look at them for now.]

Seeing this, Ji Yi walked directly to the door.

Upon arriving at the door, a personal mirror was embedded in the side wall.

Look in the mirror.

He's 1.81 meters tall and has the same looks as Daniel Wu.

It is not someone else's body.

[I must admit, he's very handsome. However, the soul of the person in the mirror seems to have undergone some subtle, almost imperceptible change; of course, this is irrelevant to this instance.]

Has anything changed?

Does it refer to the clean and swift action when killing Miss Cat?

After leaving the Magic Tower, I did feel a bit different.

Too lazy to think about it.

Open the door.

A dimly lit corridor stretched out before us.

The corridor was clean, and the walls didn't look old or worn, but it still gave people a strange feeling.

People often pass by here, but most of the time, they aren't real people.

Turn left, go straight, and you will arrive at 401.

Dengdengdeng.

Ji Yi knocked on the door:

"Miss Cat, it's me."

There was no response from inside.

What's going on? Wasn't she supposed to be inside?

Dengdengdeng.

Knock on the door again.

Perhaps in this world full of hypocrites, you need to prove that you are indeed human.

That being the case.

"Little bunny, spread your legs?"

squeak-

The door was opened, and Miss Cat, her face pale, hid behind the crack in the door.

She revealed a tired eye tinged with fear.

This was the first time Ji Yi had ever seen Miss Cat so scared.

"come on in."

Her voice was a little hoarse.

Ji Yi quickly crawled into the house.

The layout of the room was no different from the room when Ji Yi woke up.

"In the end what happened?"

Look at Miss Cat.

[There are no external injuries, but she seems to be in poor mental condition, probably due to some kind of trauma. Don't look at me; even if I were omnipotent, I couldn't help you access her memories.]

Miss Cat tugged at Ji Yi's sleeve.

"Come."

Ji Yi was led to the bedside.

"sit down."

"Oh."

Ji Yi sat obediently on the bed.

He sensed that Miss Cat was acting very strangely.

Even nine out of ten are wrong.
