Chapter 346 - End of The World (2/2)
Seeing that the bald man had subconsciously walked out the door, Zhang Heng went to close it. He now had a preliminary understanding of the main quest. Just like Mei Nan told him, the main quest of this dungeon seemed to be quite tricky, and the process was complicated. Besides, the final skill that was required of the players didn’t make much sense as well. This so-called building skill was only related to a.s.sembling Lego blocks.
In terms of practicality, it was far more inferior to the skills that he learned in the previous quests. Zhang Heng wasn’t too interested in this quest. It was better for him to spend some time exploring this world. He did this for the next two days, visiting the Changlong Wildlife Park, took a night cruise on the Pearl River, and tasted Cantonese breakfast. Although it was all technically Lego blocks, they tasted unexpectedly good. Finally, Mei Nan came to the hotel to find him in the afternoon of the third day.
“You’re done spending time with your family?” “Yes,” Mei Nan took out a bottle of cold mineral water from the refrigerator in the guest room, took two sips, and pointed to the direction of Canton Tower. About an hour ago, a beam of light went straight to the dome, and at the end of the beam, a huge air vortex appeared.
The peculiar phenomenon attracted many curious onlookers. They had taken out their mobile phones, taking pictures, and recording videos. Unbeknownst to them, a catastrophe was just near the corner. Reporters were also rus.h.i.+ng into the scene to report this strange event. However, they were not allowed to enter the Canton Tower, where a bunch of heavily armed men wearing black guarded the entrance.
“The s.p.a.ce portal has been opened, and the monster should appear in ten minutes. We should leave now.”
Zhang Heng nodded and put down the unfinished rice noodle roll in his hand.
“If you want to come back again, I can accompany you.”
“I don’t think I’ll be back here again,” Mei Nan shook her head.
“Why?”
“The key to enter this dungeon is a game item I own.”
“Block 300501?” Zhang Heng remembered the system notification when he entered the game.
“Yes, but I am not the only one who has the item to enter this world. As far as I know, there are a total of 24 game items that allow the players to play this quest. When you enter this world for the first time, the system will choose your favorite place as the starting place. That’s why I am here. For others, it may be somewhere else. We will play the game separately, and it can be either a single-player game or a multiplayer game The tasks are the same, but there can only be one winner. Once someone completed the game, the game items to enter this world will disappear from the other players. So, this is actually a compet.i.tion.
“I did try to complete the main quest, but as I said, the difficulty of this quest is very high, and your success rate largely depends on your Lego building skills. But… Well, how should I put it? This skill is useless to most players. It is rare that players would spend their precious time practicing building Lego. I have been training on the skill for a month, but it is still LVO. Of course, there is another way where you can make use of the time flow in the real world to practice the skill. After all, three days here are only equivalent to nine minutes in the real world.”
“But?”
“Although players can theoretically repeat this game, there is actually a limiter on the key to enter this world. After using it ten times, the key in your hand will become invalid. So, if you count the time need to fight the monster, a player only has 30 days in total. Thirty days is far from enough for you to be good enough to complete the game. Including this time, I have used this key four times. The bad news is that I just got a piece of new information. One of the teams has just recruited a Lego master, and they are very close to clearing the final stage of this dungeon. Therefore, I don’t think I can fully utilize the remaining uses of this game item.”
Zhang Heng frowned, “You wanted to complete this game because you wanted to use the remaining uses of this key to visit your parents and family. What about other people, why then would they be willing to spend their time and energy on what’s basically a useless skill?”
Mei Nan raised his eyebrows, “Because there is a rumor that there is a grade-B game item hidden in this world.”
