CHAPTER 76 (1/2)
Open World 1
Entering the quasi-world wasn’t too great and the thing that was taken wasn’t too important.
Then X’s brain… oh, his memory didn’t matter.
Xie Xi lost his curiosity in an instant and stared seriously at the information board.
He thought he was bringing a master into the instance. Who would’ve expected the master to change into a chicken? Xie Xi needed to stay calm.
He stared at the task information board. Unlike the previous quasi-world, there was no name for the game. It directly welcomed him to the open world and told him to read the following information carefully.
The next line startled Xie Xi.
Note: Disabled all skills, disabled the items bar, disabled any pets.
All of them were forbidden. At this moment, Xie Xi hated his teammates even more. He couldn’t use skills or props while his teammate didn’t have a brain. In the end, what was the use of his teammate?
Poor Roast Pork Bun was placed in the pets column and couldn’t come out.
Xie Xi’s heart ached. He placed the kitten into the pet space in order to not be irritated after returning to the Central World. Now he couldn’t be taken out.
In fact, the open world wasn’t better than the quasi-world in this regard. There were still many players. The people of the quasi-world couldn’t see the kitten but fellow players could see him. There was no way to let Roast Pork Bun out.
Xie Xi wasn’t afraid of Roast Pork Bun making trouble but the kitten himself was too precious. He treated the kitten like a poor high school student carrying tens of thousands of yuan.
As for the ban on skills and items, Xie Xi could still accept it. After all, his level was low and he couldn’t use too many powerful items.
In regards to his skills, X lost his memory so he didn’t dare to summon X’s body. It was too cumbersome to explain and the latest skill to take away an item wasn’t a combat skill and couldn’t be used!
After this analysis, Xie Xi felt that there was no need to team up!
He continued to read the main task: (1) Admire the newly born sun.
Xie Xi’s face was stunned. What was this main task? He couldn’t see the rating for the main task but Xie Xi believed that his luck in this area generally wouldn’t give him a bad task.
What was admire the newly born sun? Was it difficult to see a newly born sun in this open world?
Xie Xi couldn’t ignore the serial number 1. Did this main task have a follow-up?
He was temporarily unsure and could only continue looking at the side task. The side task needed to be searched. Xie Xi searched and quickly got: (1) Collect a bundle of branches.
Was it that simple? He could see the rating of the side mission. It was bright purple so Xie Xi couldn’t take it lightly.
The difficulty level ranged from grey to gold. It was estimated that it was difficult to get a gold rating with this open world. Purple was probably the highest.
Xie Xi’s task of collecting branches turned out to be purple. Was it hard to collect branches? Or was the system off?
The latter wasn’t possible and the former didn’t make sense. Xie Xi stared at the number ‘1’ and felt there was a secret in it.
It would take time to admire the newly born sun. Collecting branches was different so he could try it.
Xie Xi continued to look down. There were no loading files in the open world and skills and items couldn’t be used. Thus, a player only had one life.
Dead was really dead and he couldn’t be resurrected. Xie Xi’s nerves were tight and he didn’t dare be careless.
It didn’t take much time to review the information board but many thoughts flashed through Xie Xi’s mind.
It was only a moment in reality. Jiang Xie was still watching him with a hard to read expression. It wouldn’t be shocking if Xie Xi didn’t know that Jiang Xie lost his memory.
Now… keep pretending!
Xie Xi ignored him and first looked around quietly at the environment…
They were on a high slope while wild grass grew freely under their feet. There was an endless forest in front of them and a towering mountain behind them.
It was difficult since the mountain was bare and the exposed rocks were covered with unscientific vegetation. The forest in front was also strange. The trees all seemed from the same model but the thickness was different.
The wild grass under their feet spread out densely, seeming like they were copied and pasted.
So perfunctory! A world opened by the Zone should have more effort in it!
In comparison, Xie Xi thought that the quasi-worlds designed by X were very advanced.
It was probably the difference between a 2D pixel villain and a well-prepared 3D masterpiece.
Apart from some roughness, he temporarily couldn’t see any danger. Xie Xi retracted his gaze and glanced at the master by his side.
He pulled out the acting skills trained from the two worlds and look at him doubtfully. “What happened?”
Jiang Xie’s eyes slightly narrowed. Xie Xi smiled and made a familiar expression. He had to test what Jiang Xie had forgotten.
Jiang Xie stared at him with a penetrating gaze. Xie Xi felt awkward and his smile was very stiff.
Jiang Xie approached him. “Why are you feeling guilty?”
Xie Xi, “…”
So sharp! Shouldn’t he be more naive with his brain gone?
Xie Xi couldn’t stand the feeling of oppression and opened the distance. “Why are you asking me who I am? We’re on the same team.”
Jiang Xie’s eyes drooped and he appeared to be checking the system panel.
Xie Xi observed him and his heart sank. It seemed that this person still remembered the Central World. He just forgot Xie Xi.
It was unknown how long Jiang Xie had been in the Central World and memories were a complex thing. It couldn’t all be taken away.
Xie Xi felt a little relieved. This guy had lost his memory and become a fool but he was still useful.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Xie’s next words were, “Why would I team up with you?”
Xie Xi, “…” How could he answer?
He couldn’t tell the truth because Jiang Xie couldn’t be reminded of his lost memories. Otherwise, these memories would be completely taken away once he left the open world.
Well… this was okay? Jiang Xie forgot him but they didn’t have much to do with each other. If he forgot, he forgot.
No!
Xie Xi realized that he couldn’t let Jiang Xie forget him. Jiang Xie needed to go to the next world to face the crazy souls with him!
Forget about it. What would happen if X no longer teamed up with him?
Moreover, Xie Xi wasn’t sure what Jiang Xie had forgotten. What if it wasn’t just him?
