Fairytale Town 1

Xie Xi didn't know that he was exposed. He had been baptized by pa.s.sing the Love to the Left or Right game and knew the best way to deal with abnormal people like this was to lie.

He was angry but the other person was stronger than him. He would bear it for now, stabilize himself and do great things in the future.

Jiang Xie looked at the red colour of his goodwill bar and asked: [Did you receive the game reward?]

Not only did he mention the game, he said these two words…

Jiang Xie was stunned as he saw the -99 goodwill become -100.

Cough, it turned out that -99 wasn't the lowest.

Xie Xi replied: [I received 1,000 gold coins. It is really too much.]

What was the use of gold coins? The beginner players could only buy a handful of things.

If it wasn't for the goodwill falling again, Jiang Xie would've really believed these clever words.

[It isn't just gold coins.] Jiang Xie tried to redeem himself. [There is a special reward.]

Xie Xi was startled. A special reward? He had been somewhat curious before when Zhong Jin and the others had mentioned that clearing a S-grade quasi-world would give a special reward. He had looked closely at the Items column and found it empty.

Jiang Xie patiently explained: [The special rewards have a separate column. You have to pull it down."

It turned out the water curtain interface could slide… this was Xie Xi's ignorance.

Xie Xi slid down and saw a particularly conspicuous golden icon—Special Rewards.

There really was a special reward! Xie Xi was slightly happy. He had cleared a perverted game. If he could get a satisfactory reward then he would be a lot happier.

Xie Xi opened the special reward. A golden light flashed before disappearing.

What was the reward?

Xie Xi blinked and saw the Skills column had a small red dot. Was the reward a skill that directly entered his skills bar?

Xie Xi was played countless games and was familiar with this type of interface. He clicked on Skills and sure enough, there was a new skill.

[Summon Designer X's body. The duration is three minutes.]

Xie Xi, "…"

Jiang Xie didn't know what he did. He just saw that Xie Xi's good feelings towards him dropped.

-1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1…

Jiang Xie immediately asked: [What's wrong?  Don't you like the reward?]

As soon as he asked, the goodwill became -2, -2, -2, -2…

Jiang Xie, "…"

Xie Xi finally calmed down after some time pa.s.sed. He looked at this skill of little value and felt complicated. The so-called special reward was to summon X's body? This was the special reward?

Xie Xi then looked again at the message Jiang Xie had sent him. Did he like the reward? This special reward was designed by the designer! How could he be narcissistic enough to design his own body into a special reward?

Xie Xi would rather get another 1,000 coins!

Jiang Xie was truly wronged. The rewards pool was random and he couldn't control it. The reason why he guessed that the reward was bad was due to the sharp drop in goodwill. This was also normal. Jiang Xie had once cleared a SSS-grade quasi-world and got the goodwill skill as a special reward. However, it was only for players below the intermediate level. At this moment, he thought the skill might not be accurate.

Xie Xi sighed and replied: [I received a summoning technique and can summon G.o.d X's body. I am looking forward to it ^_^.]

The goodwill fell by another 10 points…

Jiang Xie laughed awkwardly. This skill had a one in one million chance of being drawn. Xie Xi's luck was truly good.

Of course, he didn't say this. He knew that the goodwill that had already bottomed out would drop even further.

Xie Xi had a question. [By the way Great G.o.d, the public world plot on the water curtain, did you buy it?]

Old Jiang wasn't stupid and he replied: [No.]

Xie Xi didn't believe him for the time being.

Jiang Xie spoke again: [After clearing an instance, selling the world story will give the designer and person who cleared it gold coins. Yunge must've done this to decrease our income.]

This statement… it clarified it wasn't him and directed a wave of hatred at Yunge.  The little rose hated him but don't join Yunge after anger.

Xie Xi didn't want to join any organization and didn't change his mind now.

He didn't care about the gold coins. He just didn't like his miserable experience being someone else's entertainment. It might be anonymous but he was still uncomfortable.

Since it wasn't X, Xie Xi cleared up one thing in his heart.

Jiang Xie finally saw a green +1 in the goodwill bar. In front of the red -168, this little green was really helpless and… cute.

Xie Xi finished and was too lazy to talk to him any longer. [G.o.d X, I am going to clear a new game. Goodbye.]

Jiang Xie was self-aware and in order to not lose any more good feelings, he spoke carefully: [Refuel.]

Xie Xi was suddenly reminded that the game he searched for was designed by X.

As a result, the point of goodwill that just rose fell again.

Jiang Xie, "???"

Old Jiang's intelligence was really worthy. He thought about it and guessed the reason. It seemed that the game Xie Xi found was designed by him.

Which one was it? Jiang Xie stared at the water curtain, waiting for the game to be activated. He was a designer and had the privilege of watching 'live broadcasts.'

Xie Xi had just left the water curtain when Zhong Jin ran over. "How is it? Are you ready?"

Xie Xi replied, "Yes." He would go and get rid of the mission. He didn't want to deal with crazy people one after another.

Zhong Jin rea.s.sured him. "Don't worry, a D-grade task is very easy."

Xie Xi nodded.

Zhong Jin asked him again, "Did you change professions?"

Xie Xi replied, "I chose a collector." He had studied all three professions. The explorer received a physical bonus after entering the game, the collector had a vision bonus and a recorder had an agility bonus.

They were beginning professions so the bonus was weak and didn't mean much. Xie Xi's choice of collector was out of personal interest. Compared with exploration or recording, he preferred collecting tasks.

Zhong Jin's eyes flashed. "That's good. A collector has a night vision ability and will be useful."

"I hope so."

They entered the game together. It was similar to the first time but the words 'game loading' appeared in front of him, followed by an information board.

[Welcome to the quasi-world. Please read the information board carefully.

Game Name: Fairytale Town.

Game Summary: A beautiful town with simple and lovely villagers. They live surrounded by mountains and rivers. Life is comfortable and the only trouble is the dark caves that suddenly appeared at the back of the mountain. What is hidden there?

Main Task: Collect the dragon heart.

Side Task: To be refreshed.

Number of Loads: None.

Items Carried: Beginner collectors can carry three items.

Pending Privilege: None.

Yan Zhe sent Jiang Xie a message. [Are you clearing land?]

Jiang Xie: [No.]

Yan Zhe: [The little rose has gone to another world. Why are you waiting in the garden?]

Jiang Xie: [I'm looking at his instance clearance.]

Yan Zhe was surprised. [Is the released a.s.sembly task your design?]

Yan Zhe was shocked. [Old Jiang, isn't it too low? You made a D-grade quasi-world? It was agreed that G.o.d X never makes less than an grade world!"

Jiang Xie opened the communicator and saw Xie Xi's name, followed by 'Has entered the quasi-world Fairytale Town."

Jiang Xie, "…"

Oh, it was deliberately getting rid of his game.

The author has something to say: The road to chasing his wife is long~

Fairytale Town 2

Jiang Xie felt deep regret at not seeing the live broadcast but his game wasn't so easy to get rid of.

He just needed to wait a few days and the D-grade quasi-world would be cleared.

He checked the a.s.sembly task. Due to his level, he had high authority. He couldn't watch the situation but he could see some basic data.

For example, the designer…

Yan Zhe also checked and exclaimed, "s.h.i.+t, this is designed by those Double Beheading School brutes!"

There were very few independent designers like JIang Xie. Most of the low-level designers worked together in an organization. Yunge also had its own team of designers. Double Beheading School was a similar organization, but the scale was smaller and more deceitful.

They had the nickname of the 'New School' because they were dedicated to killing newcomers to obtain generous mission rewards.

"Little Rose is in danger." Yan Zhe was concerned. "We are restricted from entering these low-grade worlds and can't save him."

Jiang Xie told him, "It's fine."

“Why are you so confident?" Yan Zhe suddenly understood. "What special reward did the little rose gain?" Completing a S-grade quasi-world gave special rewards. As for what reward it was, this all depended on luck.

Jiang Xie replied, "Summoning."

Yan Zhe exclaimed, "Old Z is becoming more and more miserly. How can this junk be used as a special reward?" The Old Z he mentioned was 'zone'. This referred to the will of the central government.

"Wait…" Yan Zhe was suspicious. "Don't tell me he can summon a holy beast?"

Jiang Xie asked, "Do you think I am a holy beast?"

Yan Zhe almost went bald. 'You're an old dog thief'.

Eh?

The silver haired-elf shouted, "The special reward drawn by Little Rose is to summon you? What the h.e.l.l is this luck?" The famous people were put into the list by Old Z but the probability was low. He had never heard of anyone drawing such a reward.

It was necessary to know that summoning wasn't restricted by the world grade. Originally, Jiang Xie's status meant he couldn't enter ordinar S-grade quasi-worlds, let alone a D-grade. However, if he was summoned then he could enter a D-grade world or even a F-grade.

The even deadlier thing was that while the summoning had a time limit, the person summoned would be in their full state.

In this full state, Old Zhang could kill a G.o.d or Buddha.

Yan Zhe wasn't worried. Forget the few small fish in the D-grade world and the Double Beheading School. A S-grade quasi-world and the full staff of the Double Beheading School wouldn't be enough to stop Jiang Xie.

Yan Zhe couldn't help sighing. "Little Rose's luck is really invincible."

“It's not all luck."  Jiang Xie spoke in a low voice. "It is mainly fate. Fate can't be blocked."

Yan Zhe, "…" He had never seen such a brazen person!

Jiang Xie said, "You go to clear land. I will wait for him."

Yan Zhe, 'f.u.c.k, I have a toothache.'

His gaze s.h.i.+fted and he asked, "You should be able to see Little Rose's goodwill towards you."

Jiang Xie hesitated. "…Of course."

Yan Zhe gloated, "Let me guess. It is one point or two points. Perhaps it is 0 points? Hahahaha!" It was a pig laugh.

He and Jiang Xie had known each other for a long time. He knew about the mostly useless skill but didn't know it could have negative numbers…

Jiang Xie had no sense of shame. "169."

Yan Zhe was stunned. "So high? Impossible!"

Jiang Xie glanced at Xie Xi's name and said, "It just changed again. 170."

Yan Zhe made a shocked face. "How is this possible? Why did it rise? You aren't together!"

Old Jiang replied calmly, "He is probably thinking about me.'

Yan Zhe, "…"

Slip away! He couldn't listen any more!

Yan Zhe resentfully walked away and Jiang Xie looked at the goodwill that had fallen to -170. How did it fall again?

On the other side, Xie Xi was carefully reviewing the information board.

The game summary and main task made Xie Xi suspect that there might be a dragon hidden in the caves at the mountain behind the tower. His mission was to collect the dragon heart. It was highly likely he had to chop up a dead dragon and punish evil.

How simple was it compared to Love to the Left or Right? It was different from the sweet love game that required him to stand on four boats!

Thus, Jiang Xie lost a point.

Xie Xi glanced at the side mission and saw that it had to be refreshed. He pressed it and the line changed. Blue words appeared: [Track the tornado.]

This… what… how could he track the tornado?

Xie Xi saw the relevant introduction on the water curtain and learnt a lot of settings related to the task. There was no hierarchy for the main task but the side task was different. Not everyone could get a side task and not everyone could get a good side task.

When distinguis.h.i.+ng by colour, it basically went from white, green, blue, purple, gold… in this order.

In a D-grade quasi-world, the blue side mission was already the highest level. There should be a generous (relatively) reward after completion.

However, this tracking the tornado was a bit mysterious and might not be completed.

Xie Xi looked down and found that he couldn't load the file. Did this mean that he would actually die if he was killed here?

He could only carry three items with him. Xie Xi looked at the piled of things in his backpack and picked the most likely to be used.

There was no privilege to be selected. This line was greyed out, as if it was unavailable. Xie Xi estimated that the level of the game was too low to receive a privilege.

After reading it carefully, Xie Xi had a basic understanding. He turned off the information board and a bright light flashed in front of him.

"Be careful!" Zhong Jin's voice was heard in his ears.

Xie Xi couldn't see in front of him but he could smell the pungent scent of blood.

What was going on? He squinted and finally adapted to the strong midday sunlight.

“Zhong Jin!" Xie Xi hurriedly held him, staring at the b.l.o.o.d.y hole in his chest with dismay.

“I…" Zhong Jin wanted to say something but blood flowed from his mouth and blocked his throat, making him unable to speak.

His eyes widened and his body shook violently…

Xie Xi shouted, "Don't talk! I will help you stop the bleeding!"

Zhong Jin used his last strength to hold Xie Xi's arm and whispered, "…Be careful."

Then his head lowered and he died.

Xie Xi hadn't expected something to happen as soon as he entered the game!

He frowned and looked at the wound on Zhong Jin's chest…

“Dead! Someone is dead!" A girl's screams were head and many people approached.

"Crazy, Bai Xia is crazy!"

"Grab him!"

“Ugh…" Someone was nauseous. "There is a lot of blood…"

"Bai Xia is afraid to even kill a chicken. Now his expression isn't changing despite seeing so much blood."

The former Xie Xi was afraid of blood but after the baptism of the last game, how could he keep being afraid?

However, Zhong Jin's death was too shocking. He didn't have any deep feelings for this person and even had a lot of doubts, but Zhong Jin died…

The file couldn't be loaded but didn't the uniform they bought help resist fatal injuries? Didn't Zhong Jin bring it into the game? Or perhaps…

Xie Xi was dragged by two strong villagers and tied up in an underground cave.

The Fairytale Town… it didn't seem like a fairytale.

Xie Xi wiped at the blood on his body and thought about it.

The name of this body was Bai Xia. Zhong Jin died beside him and the villagers thought he killed Zhong Jin, so he was locked up. The situation just now was too chaotic and there were too many people. Xie Xi couldn't resist and could only temporarily comply.

What about the other players? Apart from him and Zhong Jin, there should be eight more people. Were they in the crowd? Or had they woken up elsewhere?

Xie Xi was treated as a murderer as soon as he entered the game. How could he go and investigate the dragon heart?

In addition, was Zhong Jin really dead?

Xie Xi's reasoning wasn't disturb by everything that happened suddenly. Rather, it made him calmer.

He couldn't take this lightly, even if it was just a D-grade game.

He looked at his location. It was a dilapidated cage, wet and cold. The bars were red and gave off the smell of rust.

"That…" A soft voice was heard from the corner. "Can you give me your underwear?"

Xie Xi, "???"

He turned and saw a shadow trembling behind him.

The light in this cage was very dark and it should be impossible to see the other person. However, Xie Xi was a collector and had a night vision ability. Thus, he could roughly see the person.

It was a 17 or 18 year old boy. He was pretty but his clothes were ragged. He seemed to be hungry for a long time and he was injured. The scars covered his thin arms like a snake winding around a tree trunk.

He had big eyes that were timid and covered with a layer of moisture, making him look pitiful.

Xie Xi almost suspected there was something wrong with his ears. Such a poor ghost, how did he have the guts to ask for such a thing?"

The poor ghost cried out miserably, "Little sister, please! I will get down on my knees and knock my head against the ground three times. Please give me your underwear!"

Xie Xi, "…" He didn't hear wrong. This person was a pervert!

"Sob… I want to go home. I miss my mother, my father and even my small rhubarb QAQ!" This wasn't fake crying. It was really crying from the heart!

Xie Xi wanted to ignore him but couldn't help looking at him.

Unexpectedly, this poor ghost continued to howl, "Please give me your underwear. I want only one, please fairy sister!"

Xie Xi, "…" He had seen beggars but he had never seen this type of thing!

Maybe this pervert was a key person. Xie Xi suppressed his temper and said, "I am a man."

“A man?" The poor ghost got up and stared at him with wide eyes. "How can a man be so beautiful?"

Xie Xi's eyes narrowed.

The poor ghost instantly wilted. "How can you be a man? I am only collect ladies…"

The word 'collect' touched Xie Xi's mind. "Are you a player?"

The poor ghost rushed forward in shock. "My compatriot?"

Xie Xi, "…" No one wanted to be his compatriot!

The poor ghost cried. "My name is Song Qi. I am a beginner collector…'

It really was the case… Xie Xi asked with a dumbfounded expression, "Your main mission isn't…"

Song Qi made a wronged expression. "When I go back, I will change professions. I never want to be a collector again in my life! I am gay. Why should I collect young ladies' underwear like a pervert?"
