[Settlement completed, please continue. ]

After returning to the login space, the settlement information quickly appeared on the touch screen.

“Ah… It’s great, a hundred or so words just got through…” Feng Bujue said something inexplicable, we can ignore him.

"Okay... Let's go check out the rewards first." After watching the settlement screen, Feng Bujue turned and entered the storage room.

Two glass columns were already in place, waiting for him to come forward to claim the rewards.

Jue went to claim the rewards for clearing the script first, which were [Puzzle Card-Banana] and [Puzzle Card-Toilet Plunger]. He tried it and found that it could not form a deck with the original [Puzzle Card-Strawberry], so he put these two cards in the warehouse for the time being.

Then, he came to the second glass column, and a familiar interface appeared in front of him: [Please choose your additional rewards: 1. Randomly draw an equipment corresponding to the level, 2. 50,000 game coins (upper limit), 3. 17,200,000 experience points]

"More than 17 million..." Feng Bujue looked at the menu in front of him and pondered, "At level 30, this little experience is enough for players to level up four or five levels..." As he spoke, he had already selected the equipment reward...

White light condensed, and the items gradually condensed.

[Name: Sweater of the Hentai Manga Artist]

[Type: Armor]

[Quality: Ordinary]

[Defense: Weak]

[Attribute: None]

[Special Effect: Always looks as new as when you bought it]

[Equipment Condition: General Specialization B. Bind after Pickup]

[Note: Damn it, the sales of the single volume are obviously good, and it also got the opportunity to be serialized in Weekly Seinen Jump, but why was I not invited to the meeting last year! I even bought the tuxedo! After buying it, I found out that the erotic manga artist was not on the invitation list at all! ]

"What the hell..." Feng Bujue was shocked when he looked at the item description, "Can this be considered equipment? This is definitely not an item automatically generated by the system, right? Which programmer made it after a brain attack? It must be the guy who designed the "rotten egg" skill, right? When the leader is free, can he talk to this kind of person?"

This equipment can undoubtedly only be taken to the store, because the quality is ordinary, and even the crusher will not accept it.

So, after Brother Jue finished complaining, he took the item to the mall.

Feng Bujue is now a "superstar" figure, at least in the game Horror Paradise. His popularity is no less than those first-line star players. Therefore, after discussing with his friends, Brother Jue has changed the usual mall number...

In the past, the members of their Hell Front were active in the mall's No. 10 area, but now, they have changed to No. 101. This relatively backward area will have fewer people, which can effectively avoid being watched.

However, the number of people in the area is "small". It is only relatively speaking. The basic principle of the phase space is to divert those players who do not have a fixed area number to a place with fewer people. Therefore, as long as it is an "existing" area. There will be at least a hundred people in it.

"Hey! Look! The guy in the purple suit! Could it be..."

"Oh! Is it Feng Bujue?"

"Look carefully, there are people using this look everywhere recently, and there are even people who imitate his hairstyle."

"That's him, the same as what I saw in the video."

"Oh? Really? Let me take a look... um... in person. Nothing special."

"Don't talk nonsense, there are rumors that this guy is a professional killer in real life..."

"Why did I hear that he is a patient in a mental hospital?"

Conversations like these came one after another, and entered Feng Bujue's ears from all directions.

Under the scorching eyes and whispers of the nearby players, Brother Jue walked quickly to the system store. He took out a tuxedo, a flashlight, and a small mirror from his bag, and after selling all these useless items to the store, he returned quickly and quietly...

"Ah... what's going on..." Feng Bujue sighed after returning to the login space, "Now going to the mall is like being a thief..." He scratched his head and clicked the touch screen a few more times, "Well... there are fewer harassing emails recently. It seems that the launch of the new version has diverted the public's attention..." He paused, "But it may also be that there are too many people on my blacklist?"

He habitually began to delete spam emails, and began to think about what mode to arrange next.

"Another nightmare..." Feng Bujue muttered while looking at the screen, "Or..." He deleted the newly added emails in a few seconds, and then brought up the mode selection interface, "Speaking of which... this new mode is indeed very worrying..."

Thinking of this, Brother Jue has basically decided where to go.

Anyway, he is in sleep mode at this time, and he has not played games during the day, so there is no need to worry about the real game time being timed out; therefore, there is still enough time for him to explore the world in free exploration mode. Wandering.

[Crazy Bujue, Level 43]

[Please select the game mode you want to join. 】

[You have chosen the free exploration mode. 】

[Each time you enter this mode, 20,000 game currency points will be consumed. Please confirm the operation. 】

【confirmed……】

[You are joining this mode for the first time and are randomly searching the multiverse...]

[Search completed, connecting to the multiverse...]

[Loading starts, please wait. 】

After this text appeared, the elevator started to move again.

"Welcome to the horror paradise." The opening remarks this time were spoken directly by the system voice.

Feng Bujue thought: "Isn't this no different from entering a normal script..."

[Loading completed. You are currently in free exploration mode. 】

[This mode has no task system, no time limit, and no negative game judgment. 】

[You can go back and forth between the landing space and the script world through the "safe house" (20,000 game coins will be consumed each time you enter this mode). 】

[The script has started, please leave this safe house within five minutes. 】

When the speech reaches this point, the elevator door opens...

Outside the door is a cave-like space, with the walls and top made of irregular rocks. There is a steel door embedded in the rock wall facing the elevator. The door is naturally closed at this moment.

There was a strange-looking device in the corner of the cave, about the size of a refrigerator, and it made the same churning sound that old-fashioned machinery often makes. This thing looks like a generator. Several cables extend from its bottom, which are connected to simple lamps throughout the cave.

Feng Bujue walked out of the elevator and took a careful look. There was nothing in this so-called "safe house". It was nothing more than a buffer zone connecting the "landing space elevator door" and the "door to the outside world".

After officially entering the safe house, a menu full of text popped up in front of him, and the subtitles began to scroll along with the system voice: [Before entering the world of free exploration mode for the first time, please be sure to understand the following. 】

[a. When you step out of the elevator, you have officially entered the script world. From this moment on. The act of returning to the elevator will be considered a "normal departure from the script". 】

[b. The time limit for your stay in the safe house is five minutes. Please leave the door or return to the landing space within five minutes, otherwise you will be forcibly teleported back to the landing space, which is also considered a "normal departure script". 】

[c. If you leave the script in a place other than the safe house (including, but not limited to, encountering a kill, forced exit, disconnection, etc.). Your game currency, skill points, and experience points will all be punished accordingly. Upon re-entering the world, you will return to the safe house where you last recorded. 】

[d. Within an hour, you can only pass through the door of the safe house once (whether entering or exiting); the skills or items you use in the safe house cannot affect people or things outside the house. 】

[e. You can take items that “can be taken out of this world” into the safe house in your hands or in your bag; if you need to bring living things into the safe house. Make sure you take ownership of the creature and pack it into your bag first. 】

[f. All consciousnesses in the script world, including the player’s summoned creatures, are not allowed to enter or leave the safe house. Please refer to Article e for exceptions. 】

【g. Enter the world in free exploration mode every time. All will consume 20,000 game coins. If you are dissatisfied with the universe you have been assigned to, or are tired of it after a long period of exploration, you can reallocate it with 500,000 game coins. 】

"Ah... I have repeatedly emphasized that it will cost 20,000 game coins to enter... I have mentioned it three times." Feng Bujue only took a few seconds to scan the prompts in front of him. He had already seen most of these contents in the update patch. , the rest can also be found in the details, so at this moment he just took a cursory look and closed the menu.

"But...if it wasn't like this, it would definitely cause a lot of trouble..." He said as he walked towards the external door.

His idea does make sense. For example... some players may try to walk back and forth at the elevator door, or hide in a safe house to refresh their skills repeatedly... The result of this will naturally be being teleported. Then, they will file a complaint or something for the loss of 20,000 game currency points. Although it is essentially caused by these people not reading the game instructions, they will still stubbornly blame others. There are still a lot of people like this these days. Even if they are struck by lightning while walking on the street, they will go to an individual or organization to file a lawsuit to try to recover some of their losses.

"Sure enough, there's no door lock..." Feng Bujue walked to the door leading to the outside world and looked at the thick steel door panel.

There was only one door handle on the door, no keyhole, and it could be opened with just a turn.

"That's right... things from the outside can't get in anyway." He turned the doorknob and opened the door.

Outside the door, there is a long and narrow corridor, with rocks above and below, left and right, but there is no lighting equipment outside, and at a glance... you can't see the end of this corridor.

Brother Jue took out the [Composite Anti-gravity Ejector] from his bag without hesitation, turned on the search light at the front, and headed forward.

As soon as he took a few steps, he heard... um - bang - two consecutive sounds. Looking back... the door to the safe house closed automatically.

The steel door has a mark painted on the outward side, right in the center of the door. The mark is also very simple, just a circle with the word "surprise" written inside.

"Well...let's give it a try..." Feng Bujue didn't complain much. He just turned around, took two steps closer, and held the doorknob with his hand.

[Sorry, you have recently entered and exited this door. Please try again in 59:34 seconds. 】The system prompts and subtitles appeared at the same time, and the door handle did not move at all.

"Okay..." Feng Bujue said casually.

After saying that, he put the compound anti-gravity catapult on the ground, then shouted softly into the air directly in front of him, and at the same time, he put his fists together and struck out in a pinch.

After firing the first [Wild Ball Punch], he fell into thinking: "Well... since this mode has no time limit and negative judgment, otherwise I will just sit here and punch every hour..." He silently calculated in his mind He said, "In this case, you can advance to the first level in fifty-nine hours. But in reality, it is only five hours and fifty-four minutes, which is almost one night of game time. In this way... practice for ten nights , I will be invincible..."

After this thought flashed through his mind, he immediately shook his head: "Tch...how is that possible..."

Indeed, for Feng Bujue, this was absolutely impossible. He is an adventurous person, a person who cannot take time off, and boredom is worse than any punishment for him. Besides...that kind of behavior is not people playing games, but games playing people. He is not a professional player, so why should he suffer this kind of punishment.

"Oh... what a hard life, let's go." Brother Jue said to himself, picked up the compound anti-gravity catapult on the ground, and started to move forward.

The rocky passage ahead was rugged and tortuous, and much longer than he had imagined. Fortunately, he now had complete equipment and skills, and was not afraid of anything. Even if he encountered a Predator, he would have the confidence to fight him.

"Speaking of which... this mode is really super 'free'..." Feng Bujue thought as he walked, "There's not even a single sentence of plot synopsis... Theoretically, I might have been shrunk n times. I'm afraid of something in the nest of some kind of insect..." He paused, "Or maybe it's on some alien planet?"

Just as he was thinking about it, suddenly... (To be continued...)
