Chapter 128 – Peering Eye

When Gu Chi realized the problem, a player guild called "Dragon Blade" had already taken action.

In a certain office in the capital city.

A very important meeting with very few people was taking place.

A middle-aged man in a suit, with a few strands of gray hair, sat at the main seat. He had a stern face and sharp eyes.

His code name was "General."

"Have you finished the statistics?"

"Almost." A man with glasses on the right side of the long table turned the computer around and pushed it to the General. "Including the guild orders from last night, we have collected a total of 1567 B-grade entry tickets, 642 A-grade entry tickets, and 61 S-grade entry tickets in the domestic market."

Compared to the previous quarter, the numbers have increased.

A dungeon is about to appear in reality, and every attempt to conquer it must fail.

For dungeons that transition from the recruitment mode to the game library, they are usually reserved for 7-15 days and can be attempted 5-20 times, allowing up to 20 teams to purchase the game rights.

This game right gives you an extra "match" button to team up with other players who have the same game qualification.

As long as there are enough people, all teams can enter the dungeon at the same time without affecting each other.

The game rights for A-grade and S-grade dungeons are usually obtained through competition, and there are limited spots available.

The purpose of the entry tickets is to occupy a spot in the dungeon. Even if you are slow and didn't get one, you can use an entry ticket to replace a player who doesn't have the right to enter.

The player will receive a refund from the system, but a 5% handling fee will be deducted.

This is a long-standing tradition in Pure Land.

The dungeons in the constantly updated game library are the same, but the time limit will be extended to 6 months to 1 year, with more attempts, ranging from 5-100 times.

This means that if someone wants to bring a dungeon into reality and intentionally fail to conquer it, they need at least 5 entry tickets - to let top players in and kill all their teammates.

This will make the player famous because the game library allows free teaming up, and compared to solo play, it is a limited way for players to make money.

It's better to clear the dungeon quickly and move on to the next one, rather than fighting back and forth here.

However, during this period, there were no posts about players being killed on the forum, so the possibility of 5 entry tickets can be basically ruled out. From this, it can be seen that the other party does not want to expose themselves.

So, a more secure method must be adopted - to have more of their own people in each team of a dungeon, or even all of their own people. This doesn't require top players, as there are not many top players, and this method does not require high player strength, just average. However, it will consume a large number of entry tickets.

Returning to the conclusion just now - the number of entry tickets collected this quarter is more than the previous quarter, indicating that the other party's entry tickets are not from the domestic market, but from overseas.

And recently, among the four dungeons that have appeared, two of them have no relevant strategies on domestic forums.

This involves the logic of the appearance of dungeons.

In the current version, "foreign server" and "domestic server" players have a very small probability of appearing in the same game. But if the conquest fails, the location of the dungeon will be randomly selected globally.

In other words, if foreign players fail to conquer a dungeon, the dungeon can appear in the domestic server, and vice versa.

This is very strange.

Snipers were found hiding at the scenes of all four appearances.

It can be basically confirmed that there is an organization of foreign players who intentionally bring dungeons into reality through entry tickets, and attempt to let ordinary people take the last hit to clear the dungeon, in order to obtain player qualifications and legendary rewards.

But the problem is, how did they know in advance where the dungeon would appear?

In the past, there were very few offline dungeons, and it was impossible to study them. Before the appearance of the "Mysterious Dream Cocoon" in Baishi Town, no regularity could be found. However, the other party was able to predict it accurately.

If it's a special item, there are too many of them.

There were only three dungeons that appeared in the domestic server in one week, so how many were there globally?

It's really strange.

We can only catch someone and ask.

After thinking for a moment, the General asked again, "How is the collection of Pure Dream Realm-type dungeons going?"

A woman on the left replied, "1711, and 109 of them have entered the 30-day countdown."

The General said, "Have them clear these 109 dungeons."

The woman replied, "Yes."

The General then looked at another man and said, "Plan the recruitment time, take a few people to the 'Paradise,' and investigate the source and destination of the entry tickets."

The man nodded and said, "Okay."

Sitting next to him was a young woman. When the General looked over, she took the initiative to report, "The total value of the highest attribute players in our Dragon Blade guild is 261 points, and 275 for the Do Nothing guild - it is said that they plan to raise the entry requirements recently, and there will be an additional 150 points, the Red Tower Guild is not sure, that lady hasn't come out yet."

The General withdrew his gaze.

275, very high.

But it's not enough to release the person from the Red Tower Guild for now.The technology-themed instance is indeed a good choice, but before understanding the rules of the arrival, no player in any country or region dares to act rashly, and they might end up giving others a big scientific research gift.

The general issued the final order.

"Expand the number of people in the arrival research group and find the rules as soon as possible."

"Yes!"

...

In the next few days, time jumped again.

The initial excitement had long passed, and everyone was already bored with it, and even too lazy to joke about it.

After all, once the rules are established and fixed, whether it's five days a week or seven days, it doesn't make much difference to most people.

It's just that Crazy Thursday has become Crazy Tuesday.

In comparison, the continuous occurrence of supernatural events is the focus.

Within a week, two instances descended into reality.

Both were outside the province, one with a countdown of 14 hours and the other with a countdown of 12 hours.

In theory, it should be easier to buy tickets on weekdays, but Gu Chi couldn't buy a single one, and all the related flights were fully booked, so he couldn't go even if he wanted to.

So, he honestly went to class to brush up on the courses he had missed.

He attended almost ten classes in a row over the past few days, making Vice Principal Liu feel guilty.

Looking at it this way, Gu Chi must not have intentionally skipped classes in the past two weeks. He was really too busy and there was no such thing as an attitude problem. He was inexplicably irritable that day and spoke too harshly.

On the other hand, Gu Chi's willingness to continue attending classes at the school was also giving face, and it was not an exaggeration to say that he was repaying grievances with virtue.

From the school's perspective, with such a dream psychology master, the official recommended quota for the school was almost guaranteed.

Publicly and privately, he had to take care of Professor Gu!

Vice Principal Liu decided to recruit another batch of well-qualified teachers to assist Professor Gu and learn from him.

For the future of this profession, Professor Gu would have the final say!

Gu Chi didn't think that much.

Teaching students or teaching teachers was the same to him.

Dr. Chen once said something right, that games are not everything in life.

Going to work every day, teaching classes, going home to accompany the twin sisters, and playing a game when he had free time, he enjoyed this kind of life very much.

During this time, Reinforced Concrete sent a message, starting off as a big shot: "/Salute, hello big shot, let me reintroduce myself, I am male, I love iron, main T, sub D, total attribute 81, ID Reinforced Concrete, you can call me Little Protrusion."

Gu Chi modestly said, "I can't be called a big shot, I just got lucky."

Reinforced Concrete: "Luck is also a kind of strength."

The two were in the same guild, and Reinforced Concrete could see Gu Chi's player level, which was only 14. But what did that matter?

Level was the most useless thing in Pure Land. If he could get a legendary item and turn the player level into -100, Reinforced Concrete would be willing.

But he didn't have that kind of luck.

Strictly speaking, Gu Chi couldn't be called a big shot yet, but with a legendary item in hand, wouldn't that be a matter of time?

You have to hug the big thighs in advance... no, feelings have to be cultivated from a young age, otherwise, when others grow up, the little ones will fill up the entire friends list, and there will be no room for you.

But Reinforced Concrete didn't ask Gu Chi to brush the instance last time. He had agreed to be the backup T, so he couldn't rush to take the position.

He was just here to get acquainted, so Gu Chi wouldn't forget him.

In fact, his worry was completely unnecessary.

Gu Chi had very few friends, only a total of 11, including Huang Ya, Kuang Zhanhu, White-Faced Owl, and Fenghuo Yantang, who he added in the past few days.

Reinforced Concrete's ID was particularly eye-catching, like a middle finger, and Gu Chi could see it when he opened his friends list, so it was hard to forget.

Kuang Zhanhu and White-Faced Owl just greeted him after adding him.

Fenghuo Yantang said even less, only saying, "Is there anything you need to tell me."

It seemed like he wanted to set the pace for cultivating him.

How could Gu Chi be so kind? He immediately asked with emotion, "Do you have a legendary item?"

Fenghuo Yantang: "..."

As soon as he saw the words "legendary item," he understood that someone had leaked his speculation to Gu Chi, either Little Protrusion or Little Tiger.

Fenghuo Yantang knew that Gu Chi was joking, but still explained, "I don't have a legendary item, that's the guild leader's."

This wasn't a secret either, so it was fine to tell Gu Chi.

So Gu Chi had another ID to pay attention to.

It was another Tuesday.

There were 36 hours left until the conscription.

On this day, Gu Chi returned home after work, had dinner, took a walk in the community with the cold sister, and then went back to the bedroom with the Ling sister to prepare to brush a small instance.

One person accompanied each time, and life was very fulfilling.

Before entering the game, Gu Chi asked Tian Tian as usual, "Wanna play?"

As usual, Tian Tian refused, "No."

This has to be traced back to ten days ago.

The first time Gu Chi invited Tian Tian to play a game, Dr. Chen readily agreed.

Games are more fun when played with brothers.

And he could also carry Gu Chi through the small instances.

Dr. Chen was more than happy to play sweet duo with him.

So they bought the same game.After joining the team, Dr. Chen realized that there wasn't just Gu Chi in the team; there was also a player named "Fish in the Pond."

At first, he didn't take it seriously. A trio of 2+1 was fine by him.

That was until he entered the game and saw what Fish in the Pond looked like.

Dr. Chen: "?"

Wasn't this the radiant girl who met Gu Chi at the entrance of the residential area that night?

Xia Ling greeted Dr. Chen with a friendly smile: "Hello, Dr. Chen."

Friends of Gu Chi's brother were her friends too. She didn't mind being the third wheel.

Dr. Chen: "……"

But Tian Tian minded!

There was a dog!

Dr. Chen was confused at that moment.

Why would someone have a Green Plum in real life and still have one in the game?

With just over a million players in the country, Gu Chi's trio occupied two spots. Was that reasonable?

At that moment, Dr. Chen finally understood.

Gu Chi was indeed in a sweet duo, but the other person wasn't him.

Their team was indeed 2+1, but he was the one.

This dungeon run was quite profitable.

Not only did he get old coins, but he also got dog food, saving Dr. Chen money on a late-night snack.

The next day, Gu Chi asked him if he wanted to run a dungeon again.

Dr. Chen: "An angel will love you for me."

Gu Chi: "……"

It was just a small dungeon, and Dr. Chen wasn't worried that Gu Chi couldn't handle it.

Xia Ling was no worse than him.

Xia Ling also believed she could take Gu Chi through a small dungeon on her own.

In terms of gaming hours, she certainly couldn't beat Dr. Chen.

But she had a great sister.

She had grown up eating high-end food, and players of her batch were left far behind.

Some people might give their all and still never reach Rome, but some people are born as Gu Chi's horse.

Hehe.

The days of being rejected by Dr. Chen continued until today, but Gu Chi was not discouraged and continued to ask: "Will you join the call the day after tomorrow?"

Dr. Chen thought about it. He could join the call; at worst, he would go solo.

"Should I call Huang Ya?" Dr. Chen asked.

Huang Ya had recently hit level 20 after getting a lucky bag from the game library.

It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from bit.ly/3iBfjkV.

If they could team up and share the burden of dog food, joining the group wouldn't be a problem.

Gu Chi: "Sure."

Dr. Chen went to contact Huang Ya.

Gu Chi sent a message to Ling Mao: "4 a.m. the day after tomorrow."

This girl was all about gaming; every time he opened the friends list, she was in-game, and communication was all through messages.

"Brother, what dungeon are we running today?" Xia Ling leaned on his shoulder, flipping through the game library.

Gu Chi: "How about something thrilling?"

The dungeons they had run in the past few days were quite casual, like real-life flying chess, grenade snowball fight, 18-player pitchfork fight, and so on.

It was time for a change of pace.

"How about this one?" Xia Ling picked a game and sent it to Gu Chi.

The downside of Little Broken Game was that even though she was so close to Gu Chi, they still couldn't see each other's screens and had to send screenshots.

Gu Chi opened it and saw two crimson characters.

【Strange Belly】

Gu Chi: "……"

It looked bloody.

Xia Ling blinked: "Does Father think it's okay?"

Gu Chi: "x……"

He meant to say yes.

But before he could finish, a system prompt suddenly popped up.

【The Toy of the God of Fate is spinning】

Gu Chi: "……"

It spins even in the bag?

"Now we can't run it." Gu Chi said.

Xia Ling: "Hmm?"

"We got a BUFF." Gu Chi said, taking out the wheel.

The wheel's BUFFs were one-time only, lasting just one game, so naturally, they couldn't be wasted on the game library.

Xia Ling made a "huh" sound, seemingly as surprised as Gu Chi.

It could spin even in the backpack; truly automatic!

She looked forward to the wheel with some anticipation. The last BUFF had a confidentiality clause; this time there shouldn't be one, right?

The pointer spun rapidly, finally stopping at the 7 o'clock position.

The pattern in the cell also ceased changing.

It was an eye hidden in the mist.

【Status acquired: Peering Eye】

【Peering Eye: You have a pair of sneaky eyes that always see some hidden things】

【In the next game, you can view all players' basic attributes, temporary buffs, and dungeon tasks】

【If you successfully clear the dungeon and achieve an S rank or above, you will randomly receive a permanent item with the above functions】

……

Extra update this afternoon, made quite a few changes!
