Although he somewhat understood the way of life of Gensokyo players, and although he quite admired that kind of life, Cheng Peng had not forgotten the fact that he had just been hunted down.
Forty-five players join forces to fight monsters, which is a very spectacular scene; but forty-five players join forces to fight against themselves, it is a very cheating scene!
"If you had run slower, you would have died by now..."
Just as he was sighing, his eyes suddenly blurred, a gust of wind blew past, and a girl with black wings, a red hat, and a pen and paper appeared in front of him.
"Hello, I am
Cheng Peng touched his nose and wanted to say that he was actually very angry, but he just didn't want to get hung up on such a trivial matter.
"This is the wine of our Tengu. Of course it is not as strong as ghost wine, but it is just right for humans." She didn't know where to take out two sea bowls that made Cheng Peng a little scared.
Two full bowls of wine were poured out of what could only be described as a "fine and small" silver wine flask, and Cheng Peng was dragged along to toast.
It is indeed not a strong drink, it feels a bit light, but there is no watery smell at all. It is refreshing and comfortable together.
"I have to continue collecting information. If you find any interesting news or events, please contact the people at 'Tengu Shixun'. They have branches in Renjianli and the market town below Yokai Mountain. Although it is a bit
Weird habits, but they are all good people and my friends."
"But if you have trouble, you should find someone else. If you can't solve the trouble, if I wasn't there at the time, my friends probably wouldn't be able to help."
After saying that, she flew away with a gust of wind, leaving only a business card.
Reporter and editor-in-chief of "Bunbun Shimbun"; special correspondent of "Tengu Shixun", Shemeimaru Wen.
Cheng Peng put away his business card, smiled, and opened the dictionary.
He successfully found the entry about the Semei Maru article, and then he was surprised to find that this female reporter was actually a very high-level boss in Gensokyo.
"No wonder the players in Gensokyo rarely talk about 'fighting the boss'. If the monsters are so polite and easy to communicate with, who would talk about them and cause trouble for them?"
He muttered to himself and crushed a large mushroom that suddenly popped up from the soil around him with its mouth open and sharp teeth exposed.
These low-level monsters seem to know how to bully the weak and avoid the strong. Just now, the eight-star Shemingwan Wen was here, but they did not appear at all. When only the three-star Cheng Peng was left here, they rushed out to attack impatiently.
.
The problem is that even if a one-star monster comes to attack, there is nothing to fear!
"I just happen to be feeling a little depressed... Although this kind of behavior is very low-level, since you are the ones attacking me, there is nothing to complain about even if you are killed by me, right?"
Then there was a bloody storm.
Oh...actually it's just crushed mushrooms flying everywhere.
After a while, when a type that knew how to use the Act appeared among the mushroom monsters, Cheng Peng decisively switched in.
He came to the Magic Forest to visit Marisa Kirisame and Alice mentioned by Liu Xueji, not to pick mushrooms!
The time was unclear in the chaotic sky filled with miasma, but the system clock clearly indicated that it was already eleven o'clock in the morning, almost lunch time.
Cheng Peng doesn't want to eat while ducking under the curtain. He doesn't know how to do that kind of miraculous skill that African black uncles have learned through centuries of hunting.
Moreover, even the black uncles no longer live by hunting. As a scholar, why would Cheng Peng reverse the course of history?
So he walked around in the miasma-filled magic forest, looking for a place where he could rest and eat in peace.
He actually found it.
At some point, all the fog surrounding him dissipated, and he came to a path covered with red flowers.
The path was very quiet, with no chirping of birds or insects, and no other sounds except the rustling of grass leaves in the wind.
Satisfied, Cheng Peng found a clean stone to sit down on, took out the barbecue and spring water, and started having lunch.
The scenery of Gensokyo is indeed very good. These manjushuahuas are blooming in bright red, which is very comfortable to look at.
Unknowingly, I felt better...
This lunch was not a peaceful one, because he saw transparent ghosts floating nearby from time to time.
Those guys with fierce faces don't look like people who can be negotiated with words.
Fortunately, they all just stared at Cheng Peng and left after a while.
This also makes Cheng Peng somewhat regretful.
He has used the evaluation command. Most of these ghosts are three to four stars, which is actually very suitable for his current leveling.
However, considering that he did not have good combat skills against ghosts and did not like to actively provoke, he still gave up the idea of going up to fight.
Maybe that's not the case, it's just because the flowers here are so beautiful and the scenery here is so quiet, it makes him feel calmer.
When lunch was almost over, he met a group of players.
The translucent bodies prove that their race is also a ghost, but the neat gray uniforms and the flying "ghost" character on the chest prove that they obviously belong to the same organization.
"Ah... it's rare to see human players here!" The leading ghost player saw Cheng Peng and happily came over to say hello, "How did you get through the Magic Forest? It's full of miasma, and there are many more
There are monsters that attack people.”
"That kind of mushroom is very troublesome. Not only is it difficult to kill, but it doesn't explode anything after you kill it..." a female ghost player chirped.
Cheng Peng nodded and took out a piece of colorful dried mushroom. This was one of the things that the mushrooms exploded. Compared with other mushroom fragments, at least it looked pretty good.
"Yes, they are all marked with 'not edible'..."
Then he heard the exclamation.
"Three... three-star! This is three-star material!"
"The mushroom monster that can explode this kind of material can use multiple screens. How do you kill it?"
"Could it be that you are the last survivor of some guild's land reclamation group? Then we can help escort you out. We ghosts are not afraid of miasma."
Cheng Peng recalled it and found that this piece of dried mushroom was indeed provided by a mushroom monster that could make a living.
However, the mushroom monster was alone at the time, so Cheng Peng easily escaped from it and cut it into pieces with his trident.
"Are you guys?"
"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself." The leading ghost smiled and patted his chest, "We are the 'Nether Messengers' affiliated with the other side. We are responsible for patrolling places including the Way of Thinking Again, Yuantong Tomb, the other side, etc., and we will bring those criminals to the other side.
And those who enter this place by mistake will be sent back to the human world."
"Although there is no official establishment yet, we have been working hard!" Some players boasted, "We are not the handymen in Baiyulou who only know how to hunt, cook and garden. We are upright civil servants!"
"But we don't have a staff yet..." a player said and sighed, "Ms. Yingji is too serious. It's not easy to get a staff under her!"
"It seems that last time Komachi drank too much and spilled the beans. It took her almost three hundred years to get the formal establishment. As a result, the underworld moved to Gensokyo not long after... This is a complete failure..."
The ghost players did not feel any nervousness at all and floated leisurely in the air, bringing with them clouds of will-o'-the-wisps.
He is truly worthy of being from Gensokyo...
The second update is completed, and I confidently ask for the red ticket!
