Chapter 81: Firefly's Opportunity
Firefly muttered in a low voice; she wanted to praise Meng Yi, but thinking of Meng Yi's actions in the selection dungeon, she couldn't say it with a clear conscience, so she could only use the vague wording of 'probably'.
One dungeon not seen, and azure patterns bloomed on Firefly's body again.
The 'limiter' woven by Meng Yi was probably broken by the desperate Firefly burning her life to the limit.
Not far away, Meng Yi, who had changed his appearance, looked at Firefly's state.
This unlucky child seemed to have fixed "Complete Combustion", and her vitality was jumping up and down like a disco.
The temperature of the spreading light patterns increased further, and hot high-temperature steam churned endlessly.
【Eh? Interesting.】
【"Steam" brings her continuous vitality, but constantly destroys and ruins her physique..., a strange "Lock of Constancy" applied to the limit of life?】
The public area of Paradise cannot hurt each other. Meng Yi, relying on his knowledge reserve, analyzed Firefly's current situation in a few seconds.
Meng Yi was not surprised that Firefly could brush a D-rank final dungeon evaluation.
Old Man Tian estimated that in the strict evaluation of the "Evolution Paradise", the comprehensive evaluation should be at the D~D+ level.
The selection dungeon trio, Firefly's strength was obvious to all, while Old Luo was a truly useless start.
No "Imaginary Space", no "Path", body full of labor and seven injuries, remaining vitality was scarce, but even a little burning could press Elizabeth Green and beat her fiercely.
Meng Yi gently stroked the Paradise badge on his right hand, activated the friend interface visible only to himself, and sent a private message to Firefly.
Bai Mo: Are you in the "Comprehensive Leisure Area" of the Third Rank public area in Paradise?
Firefly:? Officer, how do you know?!!
The illiterate fool opened her eyes wide, stood on tiptoe, looked left and right, but never found Meng Yi's trace.
Bai Mo:... Walk forward 429 meters, turn left at the fork for 137 meters, "Fairy Food Paradise" second floor, third private room, hurry up.
Firefly: Is the officer going to treat me to dinner?
Bai Mo: Uh, you can think so, if you don't come again, the things I ordered will be eaten by me.
Firefly:!!! No!! Let go of those fairy foods, cough cough, I mean I'll be there right away!!
……
Closing the friend chat interface, Meng Yi set off for the "Fairy Food Paradise" he had just chosen.
He entered the private room first, and before he even ordered, Old Man Tian entered the door, and her enthusiasm was evident.
To deal with what kind of person, you must use what kind of means.
Old Man Tian is too easy to understand; a familiar person lures her with a little food, and this silly child follows him in a hurry.
Ding——!
Firefly, who entered the private room, looked around, and there was no food on the empty dining table.
Realizing later that she had been deceived, the fool was unhappy, her pretty face puffed up like a bun, and her blue-pink eyes were full of anger.
"Officer! You stole food! Why didn't you wait for me?"
"Woo woo woo, Paradise Coins and source crystals are all spent, do you know how I spent these five days?"
"Five days! Five days! I've been hungry for five whole days!"
Ah this, is Old Man Tian mixing so miserably?
Meng Yi laughed dumbly and said: "Order whatever you want to eat, I'll treat you within 500 Paradise Coins."
Firefly's gloomy little face turned from cloudy to sunny, and her eyes narrowed into crescent moons.
"Officer, really?"
"Shut up."
"Oh oh oh! I'll shut up right now!"
Firefly covered her mouth with one hand in an extremely exaggerated way, and skillfully clicked on cheap, delicious food on the interface by the wall with the other hand; one look and you know she hasn't visited this kind of place less often.
The girl has a sense of proportion.
Meng Yi gave a quota of 500 Paradise Coins, but she only spent 50 Paradise Coins, occupying less than one-tenth of the total quota.
Truly diligent and thrifty!
Not long after, dozens of dishes with complete color, fragrance, and taste, full of exotic customs, were all served.
This is much stronger than the dark-style bizarre food loved by the Cthulhu-style master·Old Void.
Firefly, sitting opposite Meng Yi, didn't move the tableware, covered her mouth with one hand, and watched Meng Yi with eyes full of expectation, tears of emotion almost sliding from the corners of her mouth.
Meng Yi, who had long since gotten rid of low-efficiency eating, laughed dumbly and said: "Just eat, don't worry about me."
"Oh!"
Hearing this, Old Man Tian really didn't be polite and didn't treat Meng Yi as an outsider.
The girl ate efficiently, her cheeks bulging like a hamster hiding food.
Eating without talking, sleeping without talking, Meng Yi didn't disturb Firefly who was immersed in the world of food.
Judging others by oneself, he hates people interrupting his research.
Whoever seeks death, starting from the nine-clan elimination, extermination is the limit.
……
After Firefly had eaten enough, she burped comfortably.
Only then did Meng Yi say unhurriedly: "Can you tell me about your second dungeon?"
"No problem."
The girl picked up a paper towel to wipe the oil stains on her mouth, drank a drink with high sugar content to moisten her throat, scratched her head and recalled for a while.
"Last dungeon..."
Paradis Island, Wall Maria, Wall Rose, Wall Sina...
Training Corps, Military Police Regiment, Garrison Regiment, Survey Corps...
The 1.6-meter-tall dwarf soldier captain, giants, abnormal species, nine special giants...
Eldian Empire, Marley Empire, Middle East Allied Forces...
Freedom, resistance, war, survival, sacrifice, despair, monsters, disgusting bugs...
Through what Firefly said, Meng Yi quickly determined the details of the dungeon, its true form is——Attack on Titan.
The main quest for First Rank players is not difficult.
Killing 10 giants allows you to choose to return on your own, getting the basic guarantee reward of F-rank.
It's nonsense to kill giants with bare hands, but players can use tools to cut the giant's nape...
Luo Ji's supernatural hodgepodge dungeon can also rely on local supernatural forces, and the difficulty of the main quest is not much different from Firefly's.
"In other words, you didn't return even after completing the main quest in order to taste more food."
"As a result, you experienced a series of events by mistake and killed "The Rumbling: Eren Yeager" who wanted to destroy the world."
"Then you hammered the source of the giants: the Founding Worm to death, and the gene sequence in your body mutated with the blood of the worm."
"The constant lifespan was limited, but you were blessed in disguise with the giant's steam, and brushed 2 D-rank evaluations + D-rank final evaluation, totaling 3 D-rank source crystals?"
Firefly looked at Meng Yi with admiration, "Officer is really smart!"
"……"
Meng Yi was speechless, this is simply the blessing of a fool, right?
"You..., alas, waste of heaven's gifts! Waste of heaven's gifts!!"
The fool Old Man Tian was at a loss; she thought she did nothing wrong.
Worm + Giant Legion + Destroying the World, why keep such a beast?
"Officer, I. I don't know where I did something wrong?"
Meng Yi rubbed his face fiercely, "You did nothing wrong, but it's too wasteful!"
"Did you research the mental alien space of "Founder Ymir"?!"
"Did you get the principle of "Founder Ymir" mass-producing mindless giant legions?!"
"Did you get the "Nine Giant Powers", "Weakened Version·Simulator"?!
""Giant Source·Founding Worm"……"
Damn! This fool!
Clearly there was a chance to exploit bugs, and her own strength allowed it.
Entering the treasure mountain empty-handed, only picking up two worthless broken stones and coming back!
Meng Yi almost broke his defense; the value of Demon Slayer is far less than Attack on Titan.
He dug three feet into the ground in Demon Slayer, caught a toad and squeezed out urine.
If he had gone to Attack on Titan, the Founding Worm's home wouldn't have been spared, and he would have had a seat in the laboratory.
If he didn't play the Founding Worm to the point of blooming, his name would be read backwards in the future.
"Where did you use the 3 D-rank source crystals?"
Meng Yi asked in an extremely unkind tone, expecting that Firefly still retained some fragments of the Founding Worm in her body without destroying the original ecological structure.
"Uh, this..."
"Hehe, I used the equipment in the Paradise "All-Powerful Enhancement Zone" to melt the harvest of killing the worm into "Entropy Loss Disease", so I can turn on the "Complete Combustion" state every day, it's just that the upper limit of lifespan is reduced a lot."
"But it doesn't matter anymore. Paradise is full of crises, and there is a possibility of death at any time, so it's good to have one more point of self-protection strength. If the current trouble is placed in the future, it probably won't be trouble."
"Officer, am I very smart?"
Firefly blinked her eyes, looking at Meng Yi with great expectation.
"……You! You!! You!!! You are really smart! You are truly a big smart!!"
"Forgot what field I started in?"
"Gene problems can be solved by me, the cesspool Paradise "Enhancement Zone" is just cheating people!"
The last hope fell through, Meng Yi felt even more uncomfortable than losing 10 B-rank source crystals.
"Does fusing a gene chain of the Founding Worm deserve to reduce the upper limit of lifespan?"
"Go, go to my exclusive residence, I'll show you what's going on."
Meng Yi got up to pay the bill, this wave cost 50 Paradise Coins, fished a Firefly·plus, barely made a small profit.
Firefly, who had hidden authority of Third Rank, could not go to the Fifth Rank public area on her own.
Low-rank players can go to higher-rank "Player Residential Areas" through friend invitations, but they cannot move freely in high-rank public areas.
Old Man Tian hesitated for a while, and finally her trust in Meng Yi outweighed her fear of 'experiments' and 'surgery'.
……
The two followed one after another, through the Paradise teleportation mechanism·fog vortex, from the Third Rank area to the Fifth Rank area.
The 'Fifth Rank beasts' with a style completely different from low-rank ones shocked Old Man Tian.
"Officer, look quickly, there is a lump... uh, slime? Snot monster? Poop monster?"
"So amazing! The player who just walked past actually has 10 heads, 30 hands, and 90 legs!"
"Wow!! What a beautiful butterfly! Wait! I X! This is also a player?!"
"Hiss!! What kind of monster! Wings + eyeballs + golden light, this style doesn't match at all!"
Meng Yi flicked Firefly's smooth forehead, helplessly: "Fool, stop looking, keep up."
"Oh! Okay!"
Firefly followed Meng Yi timidly.
At this moment, she was like a husky who broke into a wolf pack, completely out of place with the Fifth Rank players with strange styles.
……
Walking into the door of Meng Yi's residence, Old Man Tian was shocked by the magnificent Infinite City.
【How much money is this! How much good food can I buy!】
The ignorant Old Man Tian slandered Meng Yi for being 'extravagant and wasteful', not understanding 'diligence and thrift' at all.
Red Queen and Moon Apostle appeared, and Meng Yi's image in Old Man Tian's heart added 'hiding beauty in a golden house'.
"Red Queen, activate Infinite City Space-Time Fortress·-2 level laboratory area, prepare a laboratory for me."
"Yes, Director."
Dispersing her form, restoring her psionic life form, Red Queen went to complete the task issued by Meng Yi.
Meng Yi thought for a while, and allocated 100,000 Paradise Coins from the huge wealth harvested from harvesting leeks to buy energy.
Buying early is buying, buying late is buying.
After ending the Paradise rest area and returning to the Warhammer cesspool, he would have big moves.
Just in case, replenishing the exhausted "Infinite City·Energy Hub" is imperative.
【Clatter——】
A large pile of twice-purified "Pure Life Crystals" fell, piling up into a small hill.
What level is Meng Yi's technology, what level is the biomass energy he can buy directly in Paradise.
The "Evolution Paradise" deliberately leaves loopholes for players to drill, but fundamental things shouldn't be thought about.
What level buys what things.
Taking shortcuts across one's own level is purely wishful thinking.
"500%?"
Meng Yi roughly calculated how much energy 10w Paradise Coins could fill the "Infinite City·Energy Hub".
The conclusion made him discover that he had grown so much in one dungeon.
Remembering before entering Demon Slayer, it took 2w Paradise Coins to complete "Bai Xue Battle Body 1.0 Version·100% progress".
The situation now is quite different.
2w Paradise Coins can fill 100% of the energy of the "Infinite City·Energy Hub".
Enough to manufacture one hundred apostle sequence units loaded with "Bai Xue Battle Body 1.0 Version" + "Energy Core 1.0 Version", possessing C+ combat power.
Save money and don't spend it? Wait until strength is stronger before using it?
Nonsense!
Transforming resources into strength as soon as possible and snowballing to become stronger is the right way!
"Moon Apostle, go put these "Pure Life Crystals" into the -3 level "Infinite City·Energy Hub", and store the rest in the -2 level energy warehouse."
Meng Yi issued a task to the Moon Apostle who was looking at him with expectation.
Red Queen has work, Moon Apostle also has to work.
Don't worry about scarcity but worry about inequality, 'Big Capitalist·Meng Yi' always pays attention to the little vanity of the two dependents.
Sure enough, the Moon Apostle, whose expression was slightly low, had her ruby-like beautiful eyes brighten suddenly.
"Yes! Creator!"
……
Meng Yi took Firefly to the -2 level·laboratory area and walked into a clean and tidy laboratory.
Once familiar, without Meng Yi's exhortation, Old Man Tian consciously lay on the operating table.
"……The initiative is worth praising."
"But you lay in the wrong position, you should go to the one inside."
Meng Yi's expression was strange; the position Old Man Tian lay in was where sr and ssr ghost white mice were placed, which had produced quite a few white soul rings.
"Ah? Oh!"
Firefly got up with a carp jump, giggled foolishly, and ran to the place Meng Yi ordered and lay down obediently.
In the public area of Paradise, players cannot interfere with each other. Meng Yi can only use instruments to analyze Firefly's situation.
After a while, Meng Yi said with slight disappointment: "Sure enough, it's gone, not a bit left..."
Ding——
Firefly, who was pretending to sleep, opened her eyes reflecting clarity and purity, "Officer, what's gone?"
"Shut up, sleep your sleep."
Meng Yi, who entered the research state, had no interest in chatting, anyway, Firefly wouldn't understand even if he said it, so it's better not to say it. ===== CHAPTER 82 =====
