CHAPTER 30 (1/2)
Lost Atlantis 1
There was also another line which contained:
Privilege to be Selected: Camouflage, 10 times the money reward, fatal injuries are painless.
Xie Xi saw the painless fatal injuries privilege and couldn’t help frowning. This hint was too obvious! He had to unlock a new death position.
Sure enough, there was a huge pit in front of him!
Xie Xi ignored the reward money being increased by 10 times.
In fact, this privilege was very tempting. 100,000 silver coins times by 10 was enough to make people risk their lives.
Xie Xi’s current level was too low and he didn’t have anything to spend money on. Thus, he regarded money as dung. However, not everyone had the opportunity to clear a S-grade world as a beginner!
Once the level increased and all functions were unlocked, the use of this bonus was overwhelming. From skills to talents to a variety of treasures in the mall, there were many places to spend money.
Human beings would die for riches, just as birds would for food. If it wasn’t for XIe Xi’s level being so low, he might’ve hesitated when he saw this privilege.
Now he had no such concerns and kept an eye on the camouflage and painless fatal injuries.
The latter was an old friend. Then what about the former?
Camouflage? Was this a hint that he might need multiple identities? Or did he need to hide his current face?
Xie Xi had a bad feeling.
Looking at the painless fatal injuries… this was very important. A game with save points had a high mortality rate. It there was pain, his spirit wouldn’t be able to withstand the frequent deaths.
Um… which one to choose?
Xie Xi looked at the game introduction again and it was no different from the previous two games. It was a vague paragraph but the bit about the mermaids’ bubbles caught his attention. He couldn’t help thinking of the beautiful fairytale regarding a mermaid.
Lost Atlantis, wasn’t it an underwater world?
Xie Xi psychologically prepared himself to be a mermaid.
Main Task: Collect the love of the sixth prince.
Xie Xi was speechless. This collector profession was really messy. Why did he have to collect such junk?
He had to collect the love of another person? He didn’t know anything about the sixth prince.
Xie Xi stared at the main task and had a feeling it wasn’t so simple. He hoped this was just an illusion.
The branch mission showed that it was to be refreshed. Xie Xi clicked on it and the small funnel turned. After a while, a purple light flashed and a line of words appeared.
[Collect 100,000 tons of rubbish.]
Xie Xi, “???”
What a broken task? Why was collecting garbage a purple grade task?
Xie Xi consumed 300 silver coins and refreshed the side task. The small funnel turned and the purple light flashed again. This time it was: [Collect 200,000 tons of garbage.]
Xie Xi rubbed his eyes. Was something wrong with his eyes? The number had increased?
A broken game! A broken task! A broken designer!
Xie Xi couldn’t reconcile himself with this and spent another 300 silver coins. It was a purple task and the contents changed to: [Collect 300,000 tons of garbage.]
Xie Xi, “…” Was it too late to abandon this world?
Should he continue refreshing? What if it rose to 400,000 tons? Was he spending money for a crime?
Xie Xi thought about it and decided to refresh it one more time…
The funnel turned and Xie Xi truly hated his ‘good luck.’
The little funnel stopped, a golden light flashed…
Xie Xi’s eyes brightened. The task rating was higher and it might be a good task.
[Collect 1 million tons of rubbish.]
Xie Xi, “………………………………”
The number of ellipses was how many times Jiang Xie’s goodwill was reduced!
Xie Xi didn’t want to refresh any more. He was afraid he would get 10 million tons of trash and kill himself with his anger.
In fact, this was just a side task and didn’t need to be completed. However, after knowing the truth of the quasi-world, Xie Xi always hoped to reach the instance clearance conditions, so that it could become a complete world, free of bondage and free to develop.
In any case, this was a gold task and was probably the core side task.
Xie Xi entered the quasi-world with the seemingly full of traps main task ‘collect the love of the sixth prince’ and the even more pitted ‘collect 1 million tons of rubbish.’
[Welcome to Lost Atlantis.]
The moment the words disappeared, Xie Xi opened his eyes. The angle of view was too strange, making everything he saw look weird.
His first feeling was… he was lying down? Wait, where were his hands? What about his legs? What was going on?
Xie Xi wanted to blink but found he couldn’t even do that. He shook his body and felt unspeakably awkward.
His legs were gone, replaced by a fish tail.
Did he turn into a mermaid? The problem was that a mermaid should have hands!
Xie Xi wanted to look down but found his body was very heavy. He wanted to stand up but that was even more wishful thinking. It just caused his belly to hurt.
A bad thought rose from the bottom of his heart…
He couldn’t be transformed into a fish?
As if to confirm this thoughts, his shadow was reflected on the transparent glass window across the road.
A big white shark!
It was five or six metres long and had a huge body. It twisted around on the street with a bloody mouth…
Xie Xi’s heart was filled with curses. He didn’t think he would become a big shark. In addition, it was a fucking shark on shore!
As if a switch was pressed, screams were heard and people started fleeing. Others weren’t afraid of death and took out their phones to take videos.
Xie Xi, “…”
