Jiang Chen now has 158 black pearls, but his ranking is still very low, more than 18,000.
And it's only the first day.
If you want to enter the top one thousand in the final ranking, the number of black pearls you need will not be a small number.
It's still an hour before dark.
Jiang Chen estimated that in about half an hour, players near Stronghold 88 would flood in in large numbers.
Now, all you need to do is wait.
And waiting is a very boring thing.
"Let's go see if there's anything to eat first."
Jiang Chen remembered that food would be refreshed in the stronghold.
And it’s a super-dimensional food.
Immediately, he took steps and walked towards the depths of the stronghold.
Jiang Chen walked on the dilapidated streets and passed through incomplete buildings for about four or five minutes.
Finally, after arriving at a ruins.
He saw a teleportation circle!
Yes, there is a teleportation array in the stronghold.
Through it, you can teleport to other strongholds!
only……
You need to pay currency to use the teleportation array.
The currency here is black pearls.
"It takes 100 black pearls to teleport once, and the points will be reduced by 100 points. Very few people will use it."
Jiang Chen murmured and walked directly through the teleportation array for more than a minute.
Immediately, a large crystal basin appeared in front of him.
This crystal basin is black in color, about one meter in diameter, fixed to the ground, and exudes a faint shimmer.
As you get closer, you can see the details of the crystal basin:
[Food Bowl: A magical prop that can randomly change food after use. Use once every 10 black pearls! 】
"The food in the food bowl is not fixed, and you don't know what will appear."
Saying that, Jiang Chen put his hand on the basin.
【Should we use the food bowl?】
[Note: 10 black pearls will be deducted after use.]
A system prompt pops up.
Jiang Chen chose "Yes"!
Immediately, the number of black pearls in his backpack automatically decreased by 10.
His points went from 158 points to 148 points.
And his ranking instantly dropped by nearly 3,000 places, to the bottom of 20,000 places.
At the same time, the food bowl glowed brightly.
A palm-sized roasted chicken leg appeared inside.
Heat was still rising from above.
The surrounding area suddenly smelled of meat.
"It's actually roasted chicken legs...it's kind of interesting."
Jiang Chen moved his index finger, grabbed the chicken leg, and ate it.
Grilled chicken legs are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
When you take a bite, the tender chicken and fragrant gravy flow out.
Jiang Chen finished eating the chicken drumstick in a few seconds, which could be said to be a satisfying meal.
He even licked the corners of his mouth and couldn't help but use the food bowl again!
"It's just 10 black pearls, it's not a big problem."
Immediately, the number of black pearls in Jiang Chen's backpack decreased by 10.
There are only 138 left.
And his ranking dropped by nearly 4,000 places!
In the food bowl, the light lit up again.
This time, a purple grape appeared inside.
Yes, just one!
Although he knew that the food in the food bowl was random, after seeing this grape, Jiang Chen still couldn't help but want to complain.
"Black Heart Basin!"
However, if you don’t eat it, you won’t eat it for free.
Jiang Chen picked up the grapes and ate them in one bite.
Suddenly, the rich fruity aroma and sweet juice flowed between the tongue and teeth.
“The taste is superb and worth it! How about doing it again?”
Jiang Chen looked at the food bowl again.
…
[What’s going on? Why did it suddenly become a food show?]
【Those chicken legs look delicious.】
[Wori, is this the super-dimensional food mentioned in the announcement? Is it free? 】
[It’s free, I saw that Dust God’s points have been reduced by 30 points!]
[Is this a great god who actually exchanges game points for food? 】
[Is this a competition? I see that everyone else is looking for black pearls all the time, and the Dust God actually eats them here. This must be a vacation! 】
[Shit, there’s food coming out of the crystal basin again!]
【……】
Audiences in different live broadcast rooms also made various comments.
at this time.
Star City, Manor No. 1, Villa No. 21.
The gaming helmet on Jiang Chen's head shimmered with light.
With every bite of food he takes in the game, tiny points of light will condense in the air around him, and then sink into his body!
Jiang Chen in the game has no idea about this.
But he could feel that he already felt very full.
After all, he really enjoyed it just now.
There are only the last 8 black pearls left on her body.
It’s no longer enough to use the pot bowl one more time.
And his ranking dropped directly to below two million.
Jiang Chen didn't care, he looked at the time.
It's 22:35 now.
"It's almost one o'clock, everyone should be coming in..."
With that said, Jiang Chen turned around and walked towards the entrance of the stronghold.
He passed through the teleportation array, bypassed the ruins, and then walked quickly forward along the dilapidated streets.
But soon, Jiang Chen felt that something was not right.
Because he walked for two or three minutes and didn't find any other players!
And this place is already very close to the entrance of the stronghold.
"What's going on? No one comes to the stronghold?"
Jiang Chen murmured in confusion.
At this moment.
He saw at the end of the dilapidated street, a woman wearing a moon-white robe and holding a cross weapon, running over in a panic.
"Liu Li?"
Looking at this person, Jiang Chen frowned slightly.
That's right, the person who came was none other than Liuli.
As soon as she saw Jiang Chen, she shouted loudly: "I knew you were still at the stronghold, so don't go to the exit!"
"What's going on?"
Jiang Chen asked in confusion.
"Someone was blocking the door of the stronghold to kill people, and I managed to run in while taking advantage of the chaos!"
Liuli quickly replied.
"What?"
Jiang Chen was startled, someone had robbed him alive?
