Chapter 32: Game Lobby

Mu Sicheng looked at the silver one point coin on Bai Liu's fingertips with a kind of ghostly look, he looked at the person behind the coin with a bit of bemusement: " Bai Liu, are you kidding me? One point and you want to bleach the spirit bleach? Do you know how expensive spiritual bleach is? My spirit bleach is all premium, over a thousand points, and what's the difference between that and white bleach?"

"One point coin plus a demonstration of my personal skills, is that a deal?" Bai Liu's smile remained the same, "You can see my skills first, then rinse my spirit, how about that? You'll probably be the first player to see my personal skills on display."

Hearing Bai Liu say this in a slightly coaxing tone, Mu Sicheng couldn't help but be a little swayed, but he was also a little sceptical.

He could have looked at Bai Liu's skills and not drifted his spirit, and Bai Liu, in his single-digit spirit state, still seemed awake, but obviously couldn't do anything to Mu Sicheng.

Even if Bai Liu's skill can steal and take things from others, no compulsory personal skills can be used in this lobby ......

But Bai Liu doesn't know this yet.

On reflection, Mu Sicheng thought that he would not be at a disadvantage anyway, so he might as well say yes to the newcomer, whose personal skills he was indeed curious about.

Mu Sicheng rubbed his nose and suddenly reached out and grabbed the coin from Bai Liu's fingertips, he smiled wistfully, "Deal, then Bai Liu you show me your skills!"

[System Alert: A trade between player Bai Liu and player Mu Sicheng has been established, and Bai Liu, the poor wanderer, has received a bottle of spiritual bleach]

[System reminder: Player Mu Sicheng has gifted player Bai Liu a bottle of high quality Spirit Bleach, worth 1700 points, which can return a player's Spirit value below 20 to its original value].

A bottle of psycho-bleach in an aluminium can falls into Bai Liu's hands, a bit like spray paint, and Bai Liu picks it up and shakes it around, spraying himself before Mu Sicheng can react.

White fumes of psycho-bleach permeate Bai Liu's face.

Mu Sicheng reacted with a cry of dismay, "This is the high-spec bleach I stocked up on during the sale!!!"

But by the time Mu Sicheng reached out to grab it, Bai Liu had already finished spraying.

Mu Sicheng looked at the restored and refreshed Bai Liu with a particularly resentful and depressed look: "What the hell is your personal skill! Stealing? But here in the lobby only player trading is allowed not player stealing and looting! How did you steal the bleach that I have stored in the system warehouse!"

"I've just finished showing you." Bai Liu smiled and stood up from the ground, patting Mu Sicheng, who was crouching in circles, on the shoulder, "Thank you Mu Sicheng for the mental bleach, it works very well."

Mu Sicheng is completely baffled, chasing Bai Liu around like a little monkey, asking him what his personal skills are and testing Bai Liu's honesty with a very strange scale prop.

After the result was [yes], it meant that Bai Liu had not lied to him from the beginning to the end, which made Mu Sicheng even more confused.

At this time, Wang Shun gave Bai Liu some basic knowledge about the game when he asked him about it. When he said that this batch of newcomers was almost completely wiped out except for Bai Liu, Wang Shun said with regret, "Actually, there is a newcomer named Muke who is also good. He's still struggling, but he's going to die soon. I just went to see him, and he's already dropped to the [Death Comedy] section.

"What did you say his name was? Muke ?" Bai Liu's tone was a bit of a shock when he heard this.

One of the reasons Bai Liu lost his job and was resigned was because the son of a big boss was parachuted down from above to experience life, so Bai Liu was sacked by his top boss, who had always looked at him unfavourably, to make room for the young master who wanted to experience the plight of the social animals in the Internet industry.

The young master's name is Muke.

The young master, Muke, was notoriously bad-tempered, and when he handed over his post, Bai Liu didn't have time to copy his copy of the horror game he had made and some important graphics and data files, and when he went in the next day he found that his computer had been lost by the arrogant young master.

Not just the computer, but everything Bai Liu didn't take from the desk, Muke lost.

The young master didn't even give Bai Liu a day to pack up his things and threw them out of the office in full view of the public.

Bai Liu was ostracised by his supervisors in the company and had been working in a very shabby little corner of the office, using a computer with an xp boot screen, which was particularly old.

So Muke threw away Bai Liu's own computer, and Bai Liu asked Muke where his computer was.

Muke said he didn't care, it looked old and bored, so he threw it away, and if Bai Liu wanted it, he could pay for a new top-of-the-range computer.

Bai Liu was going to say that he still had nearly dozens of gigabytes of information on his computer and some new ideas for several of his horror games, but he was also unemployed and there was no point in dwelling on such things, and he couldn't just beat the other guy.

It is said that this young master has a pre-existing heart condition, so he is pampered at home and given whatever he wants, to come over and experience the life of a game company, to see what positions he sees, and to arrange for layoffs to come in.

Bai Liu knew he was being mean and unforgiving, and if he said more than a few words and made the other person ill, Bai Liu felt he could not afford to pay the medical bills and it would not be worthwhile.

So Bai Liu nodded his head, took the new top-of-the-line alien computer Muke had bought him, paid Muke for everything he had thrown away, including a half-used packet of toilet paper, and walked away with the money, to the disdain of the other man.

Bai Liu said he wanted to see this Muke, Wang Shun was a bit surprised but complied and took Bai Liu to this section [Death Comedy].

Muke's little TV is in a very desolate corner.

This kind of scene, in which a man struggles to die, is also unpopular in Death Comedy, because it is so boring and has no comic effect that only one or two people look up occasionally to see Muke on the small TV with his tear-stained face trying to survive, and then quickly look away in bemusement.

This kind of dying player can be seen every day in this game and is not at all uncommon or appealing to the audience anymore.

Bai Liu opened his game panel to check the progress of [Muke] and found that he had already collected two pages of the [Muke] monster book, one of which was [Mermaid Sailor], and the [Monster Book Reward] on this page was the [Mermaid's Amulet], which Bai Liu thought was very valuable.

"Muke's desire to live is very strong." Wang Shun is used to seeing life and death, and in front of Muke's little TV there is only a little sigh of relief, but not too much pity, "but it's too hard for him to get through, Muke had collected a [bubble in the water] by bounty, but the bubble was soon broken by mermaids and it was useless, then no one gave him a bounty and Muke fell to this place. "

"That's not bad for a rookie." Mu Sicheng commented, hugging his chest, " Muke would have been happy to give him a bounty pass if he was willing to sell me that [Mermaid's Amulet] after the pass, that prop is quite good, but as long as he's a player, he won't easily go out and get the [Monster Book Prop] himself, so I'll just have to watch him die."

Bai Liu also wanted the Mermaid's Amulet, which, from Bai Liu's game design perspective over the years, was a very valuable item.

But as Mu Sicheng said, if Bai Liu had given Muke a reward for passing the game, Muke would never have given it to him when he came out, and neither would Bai Liu Bai Liu.

However, it is not Bai Liu's style to leave such obviously valuable props in the lurch and watch them sink.

Bai Liu asked the system in his mind: [System, can I trade with Muke in the game].

[System: You and player Muke are not in the same latitude world and cannot trade]

Bai Liu drops his eyes and has to be in the same latitude to trade: [What is the definition of latitude?

[System: You and the trader are in a unified, continuous, and unbreakable state of time and space, but currently you and the player Muke exist in separate dimensions and are therefore not tradable].

"Ah time and space ......" Bai Liu's fingers began to play mindlessly with the coin hanging around his neck as he muttered, "It doesn't seem like it's necessarily impossible."

[System, get me Siren's fishbone]

[System: Loading the item for the player]

A three-metre-long fish bone, glowing with white fluorescent light, hovers in front of Bai Liu.

Flawlessly white and elegant, with a translucent amber horniness, this fishbone looks as beautiful as its owner, Siren King, from the outside to the bone, but this fishbone has clearly been extracted from a mermaid's entire spine, which gives this beauty a brutal and bloody edge.

This fishtail ends in a sharp spike, while the other end is a very smooth grip that looks like a very well-proportioned whip.

The fishbone slowly wraps around Bai Liu's waist, a very cold, fish-scale-like texture that sends a shiver down Bai Liu's spine, and the fishbone finally clings meekly to the skin of Bai Liu's waist, hanging loosely like a chain of bones.

The spiky fish spike is attached to Bai Liu's belly button and the other end of the grip is halfway down Bai Liu's belt, looking like some kind of offbeat clothing accessory that doesn't fit in with Bai Liu's suit trousers and white shirt outfit.

Mu Sicheng reached out in curiosity to fiddle with the fish bone on Bai Liu's waist, but the moment it touched Bai Liu's waist, it was stabbed hard with a fish spike by the head of the seemingly living fish bone. What is this? Why can it attack me when players are separated by separate spaces in the system lobby ?!"

Mu Sicheng is already an A-ranked player, and this thing zapped him and his life dropped by half.

But that's not the most important point, the most important point is that you can't attack players in the lobby!
