I'm also desperate.
Chapter 95 The Game Gets Lively
Originally, Fang Yue wanted to pretend he didn't see anything.
But when the words on the parchment weren't just appearing on the paper, but bursting out directly from his heart like Tang Sanzang chanting the Tightening Spell, Fang Yue knew that he couldn't weasel out of this IOU…
"Alright, alright, alright! I'll sign the IOU, okay! You're acting like I'm going to run away from my debts…"
Only then did the parchment stop at the words ‘bears a grudge’, and the previous IOU popped up, complete with a glowing red font effect, making Fang Yue a little dizzy.
"How do I sign this time? You're not going to make me bite my finger again, are you?"
This time, the parchment was straightforward, just letting Fang Yue write his signature on it with his finger, no bloodshed required.
Fang Yue pressed his finger down and signed his name. Only then did the parchment stop making a fuss, but it urged Fang Yue to quickly go and kill weirds to earn black embers.
Fang Yue didn't care about it. So what if he was in debt? He still had a silver stone in his hand!
Thinking of this, Fang Yue's eyes darted around, and he took out the silver stone and asked, "Do you want to eat silver stones?"
Parchment: !!!
Almost the moment Fang Yue finished speaking, a yellow, inspirational exclamation mark popped out on the parchment, like the exclamation mark that always appears when a happy wind man wanders through the canyon.
Immediately afterward, this kind of yellow, three-dimensional exclamation mark, thanking your whole family, sprung up like bamboo shoots after a rain, instantly filling the entire parchment panel and refreshing non-stop.
[Eat Eat Eat Eat Eat Eat Eat Eat Eat Eat Eat!!!]
Good, I like this reaction, but… I'm not giving it to you!
Fang Yue said, "You want it? I'm not giving it to you! I'm just showing you my financial strength, understand?"
[!!!!!!]
[Bears a grudge Bears a grudge Bears a grudge Bears a grudge Bears a grudge!!]
Fang Yue's face darkened: "… Stop chanting, I'll give you the silver stone. What help can you give me?"
The parchment immediately and eagerly displayed words.
[I dedicate the silver stone to the great and noble Parchment Lord! The Parchment Lord's goodwill towards you has increased! Increased! Increased!]
[The Parchment Lord is happy, helping me to develop better in the game, mutual benefit, and jointly build a better future!]
[Life! Has become beautiful again!!!]
Alright, alright, I know you're excited, so many exclamation marks.
But… is that it?
You can keep the goodwill for yourself.
Fang Yue put away the silver stone, and the parchment's mood visibly deteriorated.
[Trade Trade Trade Trade Trade!]
[I want to eat silver stones! I want to eat silver stones! I want to eat silver stones!]
Fang Yue asked, "How do we trade?"
The parchment seemed to be weighing the pros and cons, calculating how much power the silver stone could restore to it, and finally, the words appeared.
[I am Fang Yue, and I used a silver stone to exchange for the great and noble Parchment's one-time shot!]
One-time shot?
Fang Yue was stunned: "You… can still fight?"
[Weak me, I can't even imagine how powerful, terrible, and invincible the former Parchment Lord was! And the Parchment Lord's one shot will be earth-shattering and omnipotent!]
Um… Rain-level weird, Rain-level…
Fang Yue thought about it. It seemed quite worthwhile. After all, the parchment was also a Rain-level weird. A Rain-level shot must be powerful.
Fang Yue thought of Lord Han's one-sword kill of the [Blade-less Weird], and felt that this deal was worth doing.
But, he didn't need it now.
"Great, great, but I'll wait until I encounter danger in the future."
After a few perfunctory words, Fang Yue ignored the words ‘bears a grudge bears a grudge bears a grudge’ that popped up on the parchment and put it away. He also warned it not to randomly pop up words in his heart, otherwise, he would rather throw the silver stone away than let it eat it.
After this threat, the parchment finally became a little more obedient.
Picking up the human soul torch that every deputy captain was equipped with at home, Fang Yue left the residence and looked at his lifespan. He held up the human soul torch and hurried toward the guardhouse.
After walking for a few minutes, he suddenly noticed that at the corner of the road ahead, several shadows were cast by the torch's light, hiding there.
Fang Yue was shocked and immediately became alert.
He hadn't forgotten what Lord Han had said about the mole, so he quickly took out the parchment.
"Hey! I'm in danger! Help me take a look!"
But the parchment didn't respond.
"Parchment! Give me a response! I want to take out 1g of black embers on credit to help me see the situation!"
[No credit!]
Fang Yue: …
Money-grubbing bastard!
Putting away the parchment, Fang Yue decided to go and see for himself.
He cautiously approached, fully alert. When he was about to reach the corner…
Seven figures suddenly roared and pounced at him with bared teeth and brandishing claws.
"Kill!"
"Finally found a lone one!"
"Kill him!"
"Steal his equipment!"
"Finish him off!"
"I want his saber!!"
Fang Yue didn't even think about it and immediately circulated his inner strength, burning his lifespan.
"Sparkfire Saber Technique!"
Chi!!
The fiery red saber technique instantly illuminated everything around him, and almost without stopping, Fang Yue slashed horizontally.
The straight-bladed Cold Moon Saber cut across.
-521!
-567!
-551!
-544!
-543!
-521!
-591!
With this slash, six slashes hit people's chests, and large amounts of blood burst out from their chests almost simultaneously, sending them flying backward.
The last slash hit a poor guy's neck, and his head slid off smoothly, the corpse falling next to Fang Yue.
They… didn't even have time to scream before they died.
All of this happened suddenly and silently.
Only the burning flames and a few vagrants hiding in the corner who hadn't had time to rush up and fight, their faces full of stunned expressions, witnessed everything.
"System Prompt: Player [Night Dawn] killed player [Brothers for Life], legitimate defense!"
"System Prompt: Player [Night Dawn] killed player [Blaze a Trail], legitimate defense!"
"System Prompt: Player [Night Dawn] killed player [You and I, Robbers], legitimate defense!"
"System Prompt: Player [Night Dawn] killed player [Home is Everywhere], legitimate defense!"
……
Fang Yue: …
Fang Yue:?
Fang Yue:?!!!
What happened?
Did I kill someone? Did I PK? (player kill)
No, where did these people come from!
Not only was Fang Yue a little confused, but even the vagrants hiding in the corner who hadn't had time to attack were a little dazed.
When they came back to their senses, their first reaction was…
"Fuck… Holy crap!"
"What the hell!?"
"What the fuck! Why!"
"What kind of damage is that, damn it!"
"Big brother, don't kill me, we're on the same side!"
Someone even knelt down shamelessly.
"Night patrol NPC, take me as your disciple! I have explosive talent, I'm a peerless genius, one in a million!"
Fang Yue took a closer look. There weren't just seven people who had been about to attack him, but fifteen or sixteen, but the torchlight was limited and hadn't illuminated them all at the time.
Some had even climbed onto the wall, wanting to jump down and attack him, but they were scared by Fang Yue's terrifying damage before they could even make a move.
