My players are too fierce!

Dead End, Tavern Lobby.

As agreed, Roland placed the "Collection of True Names of Demons" in a box that could isolate demonic power, and then stuffed the box under the sofa.

The thought crossed my mind, and I began signal connection.

Whispers washed over his ears.

It's like those strange audio messages you hear before you get through to customer service numbers from certain companies like China Telecom, China Unicom, and China Mobile.

He wasn't like those little players; he didn't even have a sanity rating, and he wasn't intimidated at all.

However, this point was indeed made true by "The Devil's True Name Collection," which likes to swat the other person's mind before establishing a connection.

At least they didn't completely deceive him with false information.

[Information channel established]

Communicating with demons, especially artificially stupid customer service demons, is an extremely mentally exhausting task.

Novices like Roland, as well as mutants and those who are desperate, simply cannot grasp the knack of communicating with him.

But what can you do when a demon betrays Harken?

"Hello, how can I help you?"

What can you give me?

"To build an altar, press 1; to receive blessings, press 2; to compete for divine favor, press 3..."

"How much is the Blessing?"

"Ten fresh corpses of your own kind, plus ten noble souls, will grant you superhuman strength! However, we suggest you first set up an altar to ensure the offerings are successfully paid. Thank you for your understanding~"

"No, thank you. Let's talk about anything else next time."

"Okay, have a pleasant ascension!"

[Information channel closed]

Should we save the other party's information frequency band for future communication?

Roland rubbed his temples and silently saved the message.

The above is the result of his removal of most whispering interference and the integration of messy, fragmented information.

Communicating with demons is really mentally taxing.

He began to understand those self-important demon worshippers.

To communicate with this kind of thing, you'd really have to be one of those destined for greatness to not go crazy.

The "Devil's True Name Collection," which had been placed back on the table, hadn't lied to him; all those communication skills really had worked.

What Roland didn't know was...

Communicating with Harken's customer service is inherently risky.

The more times you communicate, the more likely you are to attract His attention.

Just like a valued customer, they receive special attention from Him.

-

Earth, Shanghai.

The summer sun has already risen in May.

In the warm and humid mid-spring, the flying catkins of the paulownia trees stick to my sweaty shirt, and I occasionally get goosebumps even when wearing only a light shirt.

David Day tossed his yoga set into the storage room and made no intention of taking it out again.

Urban legends are indeed all lies; the idea that yoga can bring some kind of transcendent tranquility is laughable.

I lay on the living room sofa, feeling restless, and opened my QQ group out of boredom.

The group members were all talking at once about "God's Ashes," a game that was becoming more and more like the real thing.

At least, the original artwork on the official website is quite good; it's perfectly usable as wallpaper.

I wonder how many original artists were sacrificed to achieve such high production capacity.

Hachimedes and Kashima, along with their friends, have finished discussing the previous round of dungeon content amidst the banter and jokes from the group members.

Although it's not very useful.

After all, two veterans were involved in this project, and neither of them has shown up yet. Sigh, is this what it means to be a 40-year-old corporate slave?

Having only Kashima's perspective does make things a bit monotonous.

Hakimed (Administrator): "I wonder if those ogres and the Legion's soldiers have clashed yet. What other information did the tribunal miss from the first phase of his perspective? (sigh.JPG)"

Kashima Hatsuyuki (Administrator): "I had no choice. I came into the dungeon with the search team to catch infected people, and then I was just being chased around (covers face and laughs).JPG"

Colorful Toad (Administrator): "@RainyNightKnifeSlayer, @Level8Gale, say something! The time you spend chatting in the group while getting paid is your own! (Annoyed.JPG)"

Unfortunately, it's working hours now, and the beloved, invincible Tyrannosaurus War God is at school, so no one is there to argue with him.

But it's good, going to school is a good thing, only by going to university can you have a bright future.

David Day (Administrator): Commemorating the visit of Trump's son, a family celebration of the Mad Four [Red Envelope]!

Hakimed (Administrator): Boss is so generous! (clasped hands.JPG)

Kashima First Snow (Administrator): The boss is so generous (clasped hands.JPG)!

Tentacle Monster Awei (Administrator): Boss is so generous (clasped hands).JPG!

...

Leaning back on the sofa, David felt a sense of comfort as he read the compliments from his group members.

This is much more effective than yoga.

Snapped--

I lit a Zhonghua cigarette and put it in my mouth.

"Cough cough cough!"

A violent coughing fit.

I can't learn it! I just can't learn it!

"Master, silver, water."

A tall, pretty girl of about twenty years old, dressed in traditional British maid attire rather than neon-style maid clothing, brought a glass of lemonade and gently placed it on the coffee table in front of David Day.

Although I tried to be as gentle as possible, some noise still occurred.

After all, she was just there to work and study, not a professional, trained maid.

David frowned and stubbed out the barely lit cigarette in the ashtray.

If I can't learn it, then I won't learn it.

He patted the empty seat next to him, gesturing for the girl to sit down.

Perhaps due to past habits, the movements were a bit frivolous.

The girl blushed and stammered, "M-Master, this...this might not be a good idea."

David Day was already annoyed, and upon hearing this, his temper flared up. He frowned and said, "Sit down when I tell you to! Stop talking nonsense."

Perhaps because he had experienced many life-or-death crises in the game during this period, David Day, although still a weakling, had a somewhat imposing aura.

The girl was so frightened that her face turned pale, and the budding romance in her heart vanished instantly.

She sat obediently next to David, unsure of what to do with her hands and feet.

David Day felt a little relieved.

He had previously dismissed those women who were more like lovers or servants, and then brought in this hardworking girl, which was certainly not for the sake of his little brother.

Aside from the fact that he was lonely living alone in such a big house and he did need someone to take care of him, he genuinely wanted to do some good deeds and see if he could gain some... satisfaction from it?

Or rather, to feel the value of David Day's life in this world.

He chose a woman simply because he didn't want to live under the same roof as a man.

"Come on, Juan, let me ask you something," David Day said, turning to the girl beside him after a moment of blankness, "What do you college students usually do for entertainment?"

Although David Day's family was wealthy, he only completed high school, and going to school was meaningless to him.

Just like his very existence.

The girl, Ah Juan, paused for a few seconds, not expecting David to ask this, and replied, "Huh? Master, what do you mean?"

"Just playing games!"

"Just...just reading novels, watching movies and stuff..."

Upon hearing this, David jumped up before Juan could finish speaking, excitedly spinning around and saying, "That's right... a novel... a book... a book!"

He really should have gone to college and had some fun back then.

It seems there are quite a few books in his father's study.

What should I look at first...?

I won't read professional books, since I won't understand them anyway. I'll just read some leisure books instead.

How about "An Investigation into Folk Demon Beliefs"?
