Chapter 42: Chapter 45 How to Exploit BUG?_1
Chapter 42 -45 How to Exploit BUG?_1
[You bend down and smear the ‘Healing Holy Water’ on the metallic mechanism of the carriage floor.]
[The thick and greasy liquid makes the rusty mechanism shiny and clean. It is successfully rejuvenated, and won’t jam ever again.]
Lin Xun grins, that’s one handy prop taken care of!
Successfully shown this game who’s boss!
[The anticipated sound of gears interlocking does not sound, causing you to look, puzzled, at the mechanism at your feet.]
[Do you wish to decipher the mechanism to activate the elevator?]
Huh? The game still not throwing in the towel?
Even pulling out such a trick, needing to crack a lock?
But you’d never guess I’m in the body of an engineer!
For a highly skilled professional like an engineer, cracking an ancient elevator mechanism is like asking a PhD to do elementary school math.
Without hesitation, he clicks “yes”.
[As an engineer, you study its structure and easily figure out the key problem – the device needs a little more external force to start.]
[Do you want to apply external force to the device?]
External force?
This engineer shell has a high level of 32, so in terms of strength, it might even be more freakish than the Law Knight.
Just a little external force, do you think that’s going to stump me?
Press “yes”.
[You punch the carriage floor hard, the wooden floor creaks, but the mechanism is not activated.]
[Do you wish to continue apply external force to the device?]
[Stiff-necked Apostle, you stand up and stomp heavily on the wooden floor.]
[A crunching sound, the whole carriage floor shatters beneath you, leaving a gaping hole in which you lose your footing and fall into the Abyss …]
It took a full minute for the game text to show up.
[You died!]
“Holy crap!!!”
A curse that deeply rooted in the country’s cultural heritage echoes through this old rental building.
[Your frail Wandering Soul reincarnates in the tunnel of a sewer …]
Lin Xun is almost seized of a heart stroke right on the site, infuriated by this game from hell.
He wanted to teach this game a lesson, only to find out that the joke was on him.
He lit a cigarette with trembling hands and it was a while before he finally calmed down.
Now, the blacksmith, Yellow Bishop and the engineer, all three shells have died in eccentric ways.
Only the Law Knight left alive, Lin Xun was planning on making the Law Knight use the resurrection prop.
So that it would commit suicide by jumping off the building, bringing the family together in death.
Then he suddenly realized, judging by the name ‘Forgotten Afterglow Abyss’, it should be a large place to explore.
If the Law Knight had too short a time to explore after jumping off a building and reviving, what then?
There must be a time limit for moving after being resurrected to limit player’s access to the plentiful prizes in the Abyss, giving gamers a limited time to choose part of the rewards.
It’s a shame to only scratch the surface of a treasure mountain.
“Isn’t there a way to get all the prizes?”
Lin Xun pondered for a while, stroking his chin …
Then an idea flashed through his mind and he realized that he could use his ‘Thousand Faces and Million Forms’ talent!
Never mind how many gamers could make it to Chapter 323’s hidden Abyss, assuming some did, they would only have the brief period of time after resurrection to grab a few rewards.
But he’s different!
His unique talent allows him to use many shells!
After resurrecting, he could simply occupy another shell and continue to explore by exploiting the game’s BUG, completely exploring the entire hidden area, picking up all the treasures!
Lin Xun had no intention of leaving with just part of the treasures in the hidden map.
Kids do multiple choices, adults should be ‘I want it all!’
Thinking about this, Lin Xun put down his phone, deciding that he would remold the engineer and the Yellow Bishop’s shell before resuming his bug fixing sessions of jumping off buildings.
Glancing at the time, it was one in the afternoon, five hours before his dinner date with the girl in white.
Lin Xun opened his computer and clicked on his writer’s assistant, beginning his challenging journey to write 4000 words each day…
After a while, it was already five in the evening.
Lin Xun looked at the document in front of him, which was only filled with 2000 words, and heaved a helpless sigh.
He was unsure if it was because of the absence of his female colleague keeping him company, or the lack of hands tidying up (checking) the work (his surroundings), but he felt out of sorts today. He had a lot of writer’s block and was only able to finish the content of one chapter after much thinking.
Noticing that it was time, he left his rental apartment.
He hailed a taxi on the street and went towards the downtown mall.
Although Lu Caiyi told him that she had given him the enormous amount of spiritual energy as a gift, Lin Xun felt that it wasn’t right to take things from a young girl without giving in return.
He decided to go to the mall’s boutique to buy a small gift. It was like returning the favor. Luckily, he now had plenty of savings, and still had the 50,000 bonus given by the organization in his card.
Upon arriving at the mall, he spent a good while picking out a women’s fragrance at the counter. The scent was gentle, pure, and perfect for the girl in white.
After wrapping the gift, Lin Xun hailed a taxi and headed towards the roadside restaurant where they agreed to meet.
….
The team leader of the armed group, Wang Zong, put down the document in his hand, painfully rubbed his temples to alleviate the overload from his onerous work.
“Yi Yi that little girl, said she had some private matters to attend, so left me alone with the documents. That’s really something.”
The source of this c𝓸ntent is freewebnøvel.coɱ.
Considering Lu Caiyi’s age was much younger, Wang Zong treated her as his own niece. He doted on her from the bottom of his heart.
The girl is obedient, kind, and has top-notch talent. Her only flaw was her soft personality, which still required some hardening.
Wang Zong even thought about cultivating Lu Caiyi as the future leader of the armed group.
When he was ready to retire, he would nominate her…
Looking at the office clock, it was almost time for his enjoyable drinking appointment with his old comrade.
He hurriedly threw down the documents, got up and left the Armed Group building, and drove off to his destination.
…
Upon arriving at the destination, Lin Xun saw a charming girl standing at the entrance of the roadside restaurant.
Lu Caiyi was wearing a white floral dress. Her pretty and innocent face evoked thoughts of first love of many people in school. But the demonic figure that she has, which contradicts the pure love vibe, gave people a strong visual impact.
The presence of the beautiful girl at the entrance constantly caught the attention of the passersby.
Lin Xun hurried over: “Have you been waiting long?”
Seeing that he kept his promise and arrived on time, Lu Caiyi let out a soft smile: “Not at all, I just got here too.”
After saying this, she followed Lin Xun and entered the restaurant.
The restaurant that Lin Xun chose was not the kind of roadside restaurant that served food at night market stalls and had tables placed outdoors, it was more like an indoor diner.
It had indoor set-up like a regular restaurant and its neatly arranged tables were all set inside the hall, without any private booths.
Air conditioning greeted them with cold air as they walked in. More than half of the seats in the hall were already occupied, and the scent of all kinds of delicious food filled the air.
Lin Xun found an empty seat and sat down with the girl in white.
He took the menu from the waiter and handed it to the girl across him: “Order anything you want, don’t think about the cost, I just received a bonus and have no idea how to spend it.”
Lu Caiyi took the menu, murmured a thanks and, after hesitating for a long time, only ordered two dishes.
Seeing this, Lin Xun shook his head, took the menu from her, and knowing that she had no dietary restrictions, ordered several signature dishes.
The waiter, after noting everything down, asked if they wanted to drink beer.
Eating stir-fry dishes and drinking beer at a roadside restaurant is tradition.
But the purpose of Lin Xun’s visit this time was simply to treat the girl to a meal as an apology, with no other intention in mind.
However, since he was making an apology, he should certainly punish himself with a few drinks.
So Lin Xun asked: “I’ll get two bottles, do you want one?”
The girl in white lowered her head, her expression obscured, but he could see her blushing earlobes and heard her shy voices whisper, “How about… two boxes?”
???
Lin Xun was shocked.
He was only going to get two bottles of beer as a gesture of apology.
Although he owed her a lot of spiritual energy, was it necessary to force him to drink himself to death?!
