Forces of TemptationCh13 - Rust City

In the end, the name of the team was set as ‘Cube Boat.’ (All three of them have different characters for boat in their names)

Li Yinhang felt there was no need to make the team’s name too ostentatious. It was easy to get into all types of troubles just by attracting the attention of others. She had always advocated making a fortune in silence. rKsgH7

Nan Zhou and Jiang Fang had no problem with this.

Li Yinhang knew that Nan Zhou didn’t care about trivial things like the team name and Jiang Fang acted like he was good when talking about everything but this feeling of being respected made Li Yinhang’s mood a lot more relaxed.

The moment the team was successfully formed, the tree of life next to the panel moved like there was a gust of wind. A large number of leaves fell with a faint fluorescent light like the spring breeze blowing cherry blossoms. In the blink of an eye, flowers and leaves covered the entire screen.

Ding. The page was successfully updated. There was a ‘view teammates’ page in the upper right corner. At this point, everyone’s attributes were almost loaded. T24SIr

Li Yinhang quickly glanced through her attributes. This was probably the system’s judgment based on the individual’s own abilities in reality combined with the system’s own standards. Not surprisingly, her data was mediocre.

Her strength was 1.5, her cooking was 3, her labor was 3 and even her san value representing fear was 5. She was ordinary even when afraid.

Jiang Fang praised her. “Your spirit is tough.”

Li Yinhang thanked him and ran to take a look at Jiang Fang’s attributes. Sure enough, the so-called compliment was pity from the top student to the learning scum. Jiang Fang’s various attributes were very uniform and there were none with 0 points.

AB36UY

On the positive side, his healing, forging, and taunting were all 4 while his labor was 5. Among the negative attributes, his san value was 8. He also had five points in theft.

Li Yinhang, “……” Brother, what do you do?

To her greatest surprise, Jiang Fang’s strength value was 9. Li Yinhang couldn’t help looking at Jiang Fang. He sat there gently while holding the coffee cup in a gentle and gentlemanly manner. Forgive Li Yinhang’s clumsy eyes but apart from his height, she couldn’t see any signs of the ability to fight from Jiang Fang. She felt admiration and opened Nan Zhou’s attributes bar.

Li Yinhang, “……” Fuck. PlpCij

She was mediocre and average. Jiang Fang was excellent and average. Nan Zhou’s attributes were completely to the other extreme.

After giving a mushroom corpse to Li Yinhang and making a space, Nan Zhou took out the gnawed apple from his trench coat. Nanji Star, who had been hiding in his pocket with the stolen apple, was taken out along with the apple.

Nan Zhou moved the apple and Nanji Star to the item grid. An ‘item overflow’ notification immediately popped up along with a large red cross.

Nan Zhou took the apple, thought for a moment and shook it. Nanji Star couldn’t hold on and fell into the inventory bar. The page immediately had a green notification of ‘storage successful.’ 1WzbhX

[Congratulations to player Nan Zhou for getting ‘Sugar Glider who has no use for anything except eating x1.’]

Nanji Star, “……” For a moment, he couldn’t tell who was more inhuman, Nan Zhou or the system.

He lay in the grid, his short toes repeatedly scratching the front to try and get out. However, it was like a completely transparent but unable to be opened wall of air was in front of his eyes, framing him squarely in the center.

He was so aggrieved that he was teary and couldn’t stop crying out weakly to Nan Zhou like a puppy. Seeing him resist so badly, Nan Zhou didn’t continue the experiment. He moved his fingers and took Nanji Star out. MdjObH

Nanji Star regained his freedom but was still frightened. He opened his mouth to bite Nan Zhou but just as the small mouth grabbed Nan Zhou’s finger web, he hesitated for a moment. He took a small bite before hiding headfirst, leaving only his shivering and fleshy buttocks exposed.

Li Yinhang thought this was a cub with a human nature.

Nan Zhou touched his two trembling short legs and came to the conclusion, “Living things can also be put in.”

As he said this, his cold eyes aimed at Li Yinhang. Li Yinhang felt a big shock from head to toe. Before she thought about whether she should say yes or not, she saw Nan Zhou reach out to her. “Try and lock me in.” xqjw5G

Li Yinhang, “……”

She was deeply impressed by Nan Zhou’s spirit of scientific research that dared to treat everything, including himself, as a mouse. Before she could express her position, she heard Jiang Fang say, “…I’ll come.”

Nan Zhou glanced at Jiang Fang silently, resistance obvious in his eyes. He didn’t trust this man very much and didn’t want to enter his box.

Jiang Fang seemed to have failed to notice Nan Zhou’s resistance. He put down his empty coffee cup, spread open his palm to Nan Zhou and explained, “I mean, you lock me up.” Y3IrOv

Nan Zhou was a bit surprised. Still, Jiang Fang took the initiative to volunteer so he didn’t hesitate much. He took the initiative to hold Jiang Fang’s hand.

Sure enough, as Nan Zhou imagined, his hand grip was first-rate. His fingers were soft and slender but the joints were extremely hard and powerful. Small patches of blue veins were distributed under the snow-white skin with distinct roots.

Jiang Fang gave his permission to Nan Zhou and so Nan Zhou dragged him into the item grid. Then the system became stuck.

[Congratulations to the player Nan Zhou—] hUiGp0

[Congratulations—]

[Congrat—]

The item system had probably never stored something like a teammate who was still alive. After some tedious calculations, it finally reluctantly sent out the reward prompt.

[Congratulations to the player for getting ‘Player Jiang Fang x1’.] 7sMoiX

Jiang Fang was in the item grid and looked like an exquisite, scaled down figure. In particular, the choker around his neck looked like a fragile ribbon. Jiang Fang walked around and breathed in the transparent cage with a calm expression.

His actions gave Nan Zhou more information. Not only could the storage grid contain living things, the space could also change according to the size of the contents. The range of movement for Jiang Fang and Nanji Star seemed to have been calculated perfectly. It was just good enough for them to stay inside. It wasn’t cramped but it wouldn’t provide more space.

Moreover, the unit of each grid was only ‘1’. It was just like how Nanji Star and the apple couldn’t exist in a grid at the same time. The player’s body that was transformed into a mushroom was contained in the item grid as a whole.

Therefore, their points and items couldn’t be used. They could only use the passive skill of providing oxygen. It was because the corpses were just ‘items’ with their own attributes. i 2okD

Nan Zhou confirmed it.

During the time when Jiang Fang stayed in the item grid, there was no hypoxia, suffocation or other phenomena. Their teammate relationship wasn’t dissolved. His profile picture and name also didn’t turn gray.

During the observation, Nan Zhou found that Jiang Fang was knocking on the transparent wall in front of him and saying a word.

“Okay.” Nan Zhou, who didn’t hear anything, told Jiang Fang, “I’ll let you out now.” VKdz0g

The next moment, Jiang Fang’s body appeared. He couldn’t stand firmly. He staggered and took Nan Zhou, who was sitting in the chair, back with him. Nan Zhou didn’t plan to hide from it at all and fell back under the action of gravity. He was capable of perfectly avoiding it but at that time, Jiang Fang might fall down very heavily. This was his fault for not grasping the strength well so he should take responsibility.

…The expected heavy blow and pain didn’t come. Jiang Fang actually forcibly found his balance just before he lost control. He exerted force on one knee and his waist as he reached out and pulled the falling Nan Zhou back to his chest. Due to the pull back, the two men broke through the safe social distance.

A few strands of silver hair from Jiang Fang’s temples hung over Nan Zhou’s face and ears, making it itchy. However, Jiang Fang didn’t maintain this action for too long. He straightened up, hooked one foot around the half tilted chair and pulled Nan Zhou up. “I’m sorry.”

Nan Zhou’s expression didn’t fluctuate much. It was just that he felt the skin that his clothes rubbed over when he was picked up was a bit hot. It was a type of unspeakable tingling. He didn’t think much about it. He took off his coat, casually pressed a hand against his chest and asked Jiang Fang, “What did you say to me in the grid just now?” IoHaU5

Jiang Fang smiled softly. “It’s nothing.”

Nan Zhou didn’t pursue it. “Okay.”

Chrysanthemum Garden.

“Later, if you encounter danger…” Nan Zhou turned to Li Yinhang and spoke like he was saying something that couldn’t be more ordinary. “You can hide in my storage compartment.”

Then he turned to Jiang Fang. “You too.” 5f3hIa

Li Yinhang’s heart was hot. She just wanted to thank him when Nan Zhou suggested, “Go to an instance?”

Li Yinhang, “……” That’s all.

She took the lead in stating, “I have no problem.”

Li Yinhang knew that Nan Zhou and Jiang Fang would use the instance to get more information. She instinctively wanted to learn from an ostrich and plunge her head into the ground to escape reality but a real dilemma lay before her. She didn’t know how long her mushroom corpse oxygen tank would last. She didn’t want to waste oxygen in vain. To be honest, poor people had no choice. duzq1l

Jiang Fang also made a straightforward decision. “PVE?”

Both Li Yinhang and Nan Zhou agreed. Li Yinhang’s first choice was PVE. She just experienced a fight between players. The vicious curses and desperate cries Liu Xiao made before his head exploded was still in her ears. For a short period of time, she didn’t want to experience too much harming of others.

The reason Nan Zhou gave was, “I haven’t tried PVE and want to accumulate experience.”

…A bigshot’s thinking was really extraordinary. XPToZk

Jiang Fang spent 100 points to select an instance and clicked on the latter between ‘PVP’ and ‘PVE.’ The introduction of choosing the instance was no different from what Rabbit Pickup told them.

Nan Zhou said, “The instance is random and it is up to luck.”

Li Yinhang, “……” Don’t jinx it.

Jiang Fang stopped his hand and looked over at Nan Zhou. “I’m lucky.” aWtF3D

Nan Zhou looked back. “If you are lucky then you wouldn’t have been picked by the game.”

Li Yinhang, “……” Don’t jinx it, don’t jinx it, don’t jinx it.

“For me, my luck is the best. I can always choose the right one.”

Jiang Fang clicked on ‘select instance.’ After gaining the consent of the two others with his eyes, he pressed ‘use.’ uhZTsC

Something like gold powder enveloped the three figures and they disappeared with Jiang Fang’s last words.

“I have walked thousands of miles. As long as I can meet that person, it is the best luck.”

In the blink of an eye, the three of them disappeared from the coffee store. The beautiful hen wiped the cups and turned a blind eye to what happened. The end of the golden light was infinite, infinite, infinite darkness. After experiencing a long period of floating and weightlessness, they didn’t usher in the light. Instead, they first ushered in a mechanical female voice.

[Dear players of the Cube Boat team, hello~] 6vRfs
