Dafang Traditional Restaurant.
After Officer Li Changzhi let them go, a group of university students, still shaken, didn’t choose to head back to school but continued with the original plan to go to the restaurant, since they hadn’t had dinner yet.
The class president, Zhang Jing, also said that having escaped disaster, they must be fortunate, and since tomorrow and accidents are unpredictable, it’s important to enjoy the moment.
He planned to order the most expensive dishes today and drink the priciest alcohol in the restaurant.
“Brothers, don’t save money for me! Let’s eat our fill! Feast to our heart’s content!”
“Hey, no need for you to say it, Elder Zhang, we big eaters never go easy on food.”
“That’s good.”
Zhang Jing then turned to the person wearing a hat beside him and smiled, “Luo Xi, your nourishing porridge will be ready soon, just wait a bit.”
Everyone turned to look at Luo Xi, who seemed to be daydreaming in a corner.
Some had wanted to take Luo Xi to the hospital to see if he was injured, but he declined.
Wang Yuanjie attempted to probe, “Little mule, do you really know martial arts?”
Luo Xi silently nodded.
Let’s assume he knows martial arts, then.
Anyway, after “Dawn” goes into public beta, these people will naturally find out the truth. Saying it now is more trouble than it’s worth.
Zhang Jing’s eyes lit up. “Can you teach me?”
“It’s a family martial art, not to be taught to outsiders.”
“You’re my dad!”
Luo Xi: “…”
My goodness, he had forgotten these guys had no scruples, having lost all their inhibitions in their four years of close association. It was common for them to call each other ‘son’ and ‘dad.’
“It’s not that I don’t want to teach you.”
Luo Xi shook his head. “Only one in ten thousand martial arts prodigies can learn my skills.”
Actually, with a little calculation, it’s true—there’s about one player among seventy or eighty thousand people. It’s indeed one in ten thousand.
Wang Yuanjie asked curiously, “Since you’re so skilled in martial arts, why have you never shown it these past few years?”
A girl said, “You don’t understand, do you? His is real kung fu, not the comedic ‘Mr. Ma’s Lightning Five Whiplashes.’ Of course, he can’t just reveal it recklessly.”
“Indeed.” Everyone nodded in agreement.
Luo Xi felt a little melancholy on the inside.
Whenever he had money, he would continue living separately. Otherwise, being constantly questioned about whether he knew kung fu or not would be troublesome.
He also needed to find a way to get rid of the bad talents he possessed.
Once the food was served, the students shifted their topic away from him, branching off into various areas. However, with girls present, the boys toned down the conversation quite a bit.
But eventually, they turned to the topic of love.
A girl probed casually, “By the way, Luo Xi, do you have a girlfriend now?”
“No.”
“Then have you thought about finding a girl…”
Luo Xi interrupted, “Not at the moment.”
Chen Yao laughed loudly, “Lu Yi, don’t even think about stealing our little mule. If he wanted a girlfriend, he’d already be taken, not waiting for you. If it hadn’t been for his lack of weird behavior over the years, I’d suspect he’s got his eye on mine and Elder Wang’s chrysanthemums.”
Lu Yi glared at Chen Yao, took a few bites of her food to hide her embarrassment.
Zhang Jing joked, “So, Luo Xi, exactly what type of girl do you like? I’ve heard from Chen Yao that you’ve turned down a pretty girl many times.”
Luo Xi casually said, “I like the beast eared type.”
“Old otaku, huh?”
A guy commented, “Do you also need to add the Lolita attribute? Because I like that too, preferably a legal Lolita with fox ears, white hair, and red eyes, 148 centimeters tall, like the Little Fox Demon in ‘Everyday Life After Picking up a Little Fox Demon’ that I’ve been reading recently.”
Chen Yao gulped down a can of beer, looked up, and said with a laugh, “You guys had better come back to reality. There’s no such creature as a beast eared Lolita in the real world. Sure, those attributes exist separately, but if you’re just after the beast ear attribute, then you’d be a sad emperor, and if it’s just the Lolita attribute… At least three years locked up, and the nearby precinct will welcome you!”
Everyone burst into laughter.
Luo Xi laughed along with them.
There might not be any in reality, but what about in games?
…
After the meal, Luo Xi said he was a bit tired, so he headed back to the dorm on his own, not joining the others for karaoke at the KTV.
Zhang Jing didn’t insist on keeping him, maybe he really was tired.
Having returned to the dorm and showered, Luo Xi lay on his bed, sprawled like a salted fish, and turned on his phone.
It’s past nine o’clock already.
The time has come!
[Traveler, with the assistance of Aina in your studies, you have fully grasped the basics of the Dream world’s universal language script]
[It is estimated that you will complete this mission in 10 hours]
[Traveler, Aina’s face is filled with fatigue and grievance, do you want to comfort her?]
Updat𝓮d from frёewebnoѵēl.com.
Huh? Why would Little Wolf Girl feel aggrieved?
He tapped the cloud-like symbol at the top of his phone screen.
[The synchronisation module for the Dreamland has finished cooling down]
That golden ability should be usable now too, right?
However, Luo Xi wasn’t considering using that ability just now. The effects of Immersion, rather than genuinely feeling that world, the most important thing was to consume various emotional attributes to grant him powerful attribute boosts inside the Dream world.
For instance, the horrifying attribute boosts under the murderous intent mode had at least multiplied his combat strength by several times.
Come to think of it, how much has his Happiness Level accumulated by now?
Luo Xi clicked into his character attribute module to take a look.
[Happiness Level: 630]
Luo Xi: (o゚▽゚)o!!!
How did the Happiness Level amass so much without me noticing?
[Note: Perverted, suspicious Traveler, what else could it be, the Lolita with beast ears is your source of happiness!]
Luo Xi: “…”
I didn’t see that.
He remembered that each 100 points of Happiness Level could provide a 10% boost in Strength and 10% resistance to spirit-based Skills, but he didn’t know how much of it could be consumed at once.
For example, saving up to 10,000 points and using it all in one go, wouldn’t that amplify it by ten times?
Isn’t that much better than the crazed, abnormal feeling under the murderous intent state?
[Warm Reminder: Given your current level of ability, Traveler, you can consume up to a maximum of 1,000 points of any single emotional value reserve at a time]
Ah, pretend I didn’t say that.
But besides the Happiness Level, [Anger Value: 156], this should also be usable to trigger the golden ability, right?
Just not sure what kind of boosts it would give.
[Do you wish to use the Dreamland synchronisation module?]
[Yes]
Hehehe~ Little Aina, let Big Brother have a look…
[Traveler, welcome to the journey of dreams~]
///
Aina looked up with a pitiful expression at Luo Xi, who was still immersed in reading.
Brother Luo Xi seemed to be possessed ever since he picked up the book in the afternoon, constantly flipping through the pages and asking her and her sister questions.
At first, Aina thought it was somewhat fun, but as time went on, it became less and less interesting.
Suddenly, Aina felt that there was a change in the young man’s aura in front of her, as if something had awakened within him.
Aina called out with confusion, “Brother Luo Xi?”
“Aina?” the young man asked back.
“Yes, Aina is right here.” Aina raised her little hand.
“Where is your sister?”
“She’s in the little room underground, looking for cases about people suddenly becoming crazed.”
“Ah…”
Luo Xi pondered.
So that means, in the living room right now, there’s only the Little Wolf Girl left, huh.
“Aina.”
“Aina is here!”
“Let Brother pet your ears and tail.”
“Okay! Huh?”
[Note: Perverted, dubious Loli-con Traveler, after resisting your desires for a long time, have you finally come to this world personally, to lay your vile hands on the cute and fragile Little Wolf Girl?]
