Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

If even the kitchen doesn't have any supplies, how can it be so easy to get things?

"If it were so easy, what would I need you for? Do you think it's so easy for you to share in such a huge benefit?"

Si Xue glared at him and said.

Opportunities to curry favor with someone as important as the president of the Writers' Association are rare and precious. Moreover, this is not a small favor like saving face for an opponent or getting some useful items, but a major favor that concerns one's own interests.

The more share Si Xue takes, the more help she will receive later.

If she didn't actually have that many dragons, she would have loved to have all nine dragons provided by herself.

"Okay, I'll think of something."

Since Si Xue had said so, Liu Zheng had no choice but to agree.

He remembered the shop where Niu Daji had bought dragon dung; perhaps there would be clues there.

"What about these dragons?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"Come back and take it when you've got the Nine Dragons Coffin and the last dragon. If you take it now, you can't control it or keep it."

Si Xue replied.

"Okay, boss."

He was secretly disappointed.

These four dragon-shaped jade talismans are guaranteed to be of perfect quality, and the quality of the four living dragons will only be higher, not lower.

If he gets his hands on it and then settles the dungeon, he'll be able to take off on the spot.

With this snowball effect, we might be able to easily breeze through the later stages.

Although Liu Zheng rarely uses cheats when playing games, reality is not a game, and the more cheats the better.

"This one is yours."

Si Xue weighed the jade fishing rod in her hand and casually handed it to him.

Liu Zheng took the fishing rod, and the item description immediately popped up.

Name: Damaged Fishing Rod

Type: Equipment

Quality: Perfect

Effect 1: Players gain the 'Dragon's Might' status.

"Effect 2: When players fight dragons, all attributes are increased by 20 and damage is increased by 20%."

Effect 3: Players gain the skill 'Qiankun Yijiao', which completely destroys items upon use.

Note: We were born from the same egg, why are we in such a hurry to fish together?

"Can it be taken out of the instance: Yes"

"Dragon's Might: Players gain the aura of dragon's intimidation. Creatures suppressed by Dragon's Might have all attributes reduced by 15%, and creatures of dragon blood or those that regard dragons as natural enemies have all attributes reduced by an additional 10%."

"One Fishing Move: After use, the fishing hook will definitely hit the target. At the same time, the player and the target will engage in a lucky confrontation. The loser will be imprisoned. The strength and duration of the imprisonment are positively correlated with the difference in luck attributes between the two parties."

"Brilliant!"

Liu gave a thumbs up in his heart.

As expected of something made from multiple items combined with Si Xue's body material, the effect is truly domineering.

Effect one alone is already incredibly powerful, but effect three is even more incredible.

It has strong single-target control and is guaranteed to hit. If you pair it with items that increase luck, who wouldn't be annoyed by it?

He couldn't help but think back to the time he had a fishing competition with the female divers. If he had used this fishing rod back then, he probably wouldn't have caught just the testicles from the sewer.

just

"Why is it damaged?"

Liu Zheng asked.

Isn't this made with an indestructible beer bottle as the base?

"You think this is real fishing? If it weren't made from your beer bottle, this fishing rod would be crushed into pieces, more like white peppercorns by now."

Si Xue said unhappily.

This subordinate is good in every way, except that her skills are too poor and her vision is too narrow; she couldn't see the brilliance of those moves she just made.

If Niu Ma were here, he would have already seized the opportunity to praise it lavishly.

It is clear that flattery, like getting things done, requires both a strong grasp of both the hardware and software aspects.

"Can it be repaired?"

Liu Zheng asked with concern.

It would be such a waste if something this good broke after just one use.

"I just made this thing on a whim. Don't even mention repairing it, it's impossible for me to make an identical one again. You'll have to find another way yourself."

Si Xue shook her head.

"Okay. Thanks, boss."

He looked at it for a while but couldn't find any damage, so he put the fishing rod into his system space.

Liu Zheng decided to call the pond owner later and see if he could fix it. If the pond owner couldn't fix it, he would ask the fisherman.

"you can go now."

Si Xue spoke to the lake.

As soon as she finished speaking, wisps of cold air rose from the lake, and the water quickly froze into thick ice, turning the cave into a winter wonderland.

Si Xue grabbed Liu Zheng by the back of the neck and walked up step by step, with icy steps forming under her feet.

By the time she sat on the dragon throne, an iceberg had already grown out of her feet.

"Tell me, what did you talk about at the Fool's house?"

Si Xue flew to the platinum throne, placed Liu Zheng at her feet, and then asked indifferently.

Chapter 498 The restaurant is giving out perks!

"You've been gone for way too long, haven't you?"

The cattle and horses complained.

"There's nothing I can do, the boss won't let me leave."

Back in the lounge, Liu Zheng spread his tentacles.

"Did I assign you work again?"

The oxen and horses immediately realized what was happening.

"I was born to be a hard worker. Even the dogs on the street ask me to find them a bone."

He said self-deprecatingly.

"I delivered takeout twice while you were gone."

The cattle and horses complained.

"Thank you for your hard work, boss. How about I give you a massage?"

"Forget it, you're busy enough, you probably don't have the energy to massage properly, I'll just lie down by myself."

The ox and horse mumbled a couple of things, then rolled over and lay back down.

Liu Zheng smiled and was just about to go over and give it a massage when the phone rang.

"Senior, are you okay?"

He pressed the answer button, and the novelist's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"It's okay, I'm already back at the restaurant."

Liu Zheng said.

"That's good. I called you several times in the meantime, but I couldn't get through, which made me very worried."

The novelist breathed a sigh of relief.

"Well, it wasn't exactly a smooth ride. I took on several more jobs in between. Sigh, never mind, it's too much of a headache to even think about it."

He sighed.

"You must be tired. Would you like me to order some takeout and go shopping with you to relax?"

The novelist suggested.

"Forget it, you're not that delicate. Besides, you just had it recently, even if you're in good health, you can't withstand this kind of torment."

Liu Zheng refused without hesitation.

"You're so kind, senpai. I'll let Hii Shikibu order then."

The novelist said in a gentle tone.

"Hey! I'll go to jail with you, fine, but you won't even spare my life? Woman, aren't you going a bit too far?"

A disgruntled voice came from the side.

"I'll place an order for that limited edition miniature theater set of Black Swan that you liked last time."

The novelist said.

"Of course, for my own happiness, I wouldn't hesitate to sacrifice even my own parents' lives, let alone my best friend. Order now, hurry up."

Hishibu suddenly changed the subject.

What is a miniature theater troupe?

Liu Zheng asked curiously.

"It's a miniature theater troupe that can perform writers' manuscripts in the form of stage plays, which is very useful for writers who prefer adaptations and those who like to write action scenes."

The novelist explained.

"The actors in that troupe?"

"They are specially bred miniature people, each with multiple personalities and a strong ability to perceive emotions, allowing them to perfectly embody their roles. However, their lifespans are generally short, and the more frequently they are used, the shorter their lifespan becomes. Replacing them is also very expensive, so only great writers and the wealthy can afford to buy them."

"However, the Black Swan limited edition comes with a 30-year free replacement service, so if you use it frequently enough, it's more cost-effective than the regular version."

The novelist patiently explained.

Do they know they're just actors?

"Actors can't talk about this, but I think they probably know."

The novelist said frankly.

"Okay. I won't buy it now. I'll let you know when I need it."

He was silent for a moment before speaking.

"Okay. You should get some rest. Feel free to contact me anytime if you need anything."

"You too, you just got out of the dark room. Take some time to calm down, and maybe you'll have a breakthrough and write a good opening."

Liu Zheng gave instructions.

"Yes, yes, I'll definitely make sure you're the first to review it, senior."

The novelist said happily.

"Boss."
