[You’ve left midway of the scenario. Within 20 minutes, you cannot queue to enter any party.]
[Since you’ve quit the scenario, you cannot receive any rewards.]
There were two notifications that greeted him when he entered the login space.
Not long after the Derivative disappeared, Copernicus and Galileo, of course, realized this. They were excited, leading Invincible Hero and Ye Zhi back to the mountain to compliment how clever Feng Bujue’s tactic of using the Protagonist’s Halo to deal with the Derivative was.
Turns out, Feng Bujue told them that the Derivative wasn’t destroyed, but disappeared on his own. Zen In Scary Dream, who had witnessed the whole process from a distance, also testified it. The two GMs were dumbfounded. They didn't know how to write the report this time since they had never met a case where the Derivative could escape the scenario. This case could turn into a major event…
In short, they didn't talk much but got out of the scenario. Anyway, GMs had to keep their stuff on the down low. If they had something they wanted to say, GMs could always talk with Feng Bujue in private, so now they didn't need to discuss with the presence of players from Order Studio.
Roughly twenty minutes after they had left the scenario, Zen In Scary Dream’s group was still online. They then heard a strange voice from the system.
[Your previous scenario has been shut down because of unknown reasons.]
We’d talk about it later. And now, Feng Bujue was quite depressed.
Let’s take a look to see how his stats had been changed after the previous scenario.
Title: [The Plot Seeker].
EXP: 13436/18000. Skill Value: 2637. Game coins: 326800.
Specialties: Common D, Weapon D, Investigating E, Fighting D, Shooting D, Curing F, Spiritual Technique E. and Summon N/A.
Bag (5/10): Mario’s Pipe Wrench, Flashlight, Folding Stool, SPC-500 (19/20), and Anti-Gravity Launching Device.
Items: Dance of the Knight, Death Poker (spiritual weapon), and Echo Amor.
Login Space storage (3/10): Jigsaw Puzzle Piece – Monkey, Jigsaw Puzzle Piece – Sunglasses, Persephone’s Vacuum Machine.
Skills: [Perfunctory Maintenance], [Body-Spirit Congregated Technique], [Plan Victory from Thousand Mile Away.]
It took him two hours playing the game and, although it was still fine gaining no EXP or coins, the loss of his skills and items hurt him badly just like a deep-to-bone wound. Let alone the two Survival Value Supplement bottles, just considered he drank them all… but the other four items…
[The Eye of Hatred]’s equipment conditions required user’s level less than 20, and it couldn't be traded after picking up. When he had leveled up for two more levels, he could sell this defesive item, so Feng Bujue didn't feel hurt much losing it.
Besides, the other items, like [Casey Jone’s Mask] with its marvelous effect of adding one more grade for his Fighting Specialty, were gone. After the fierce battle with a Superman like K3- Hematite, his actual Fighting Specialty had been upgraded to D. If he still had had the mask, which had the special effect [When in use, this item can improve user's Fighting Specialty to one grade higher than the real grade, but not exceed Grade C], Feng Bujue’s Fighting Specialty would have leaped directly to Grade C. How strong was this advance? Even stronger than Like Rain.
And, his [Robots Must Die] had been used for only one scenario. The number of souls of the deceased under this sword was smaller than ten. His sword was gone, too. Anyway, he had earned some Skill Value points.
Besides, [M1911A1 Pistol] was the only firearm weapon Feng Bujue now had. He still had some magazines of bullets in his coat pockets that he had bought with game coins from the shop. If he sold them back, it would be a big loss, as it was not even one-tenth of the original price. If he put them into the Auction House… even if the price he set was just 70%, not sure he could sell it. Anyway, bullet types should match with the firearms. Moreover, the system had more than dozens of pages of miscellaneous items like those. If he put them into the Auction House, it was just a waste of registration fee.
He could only console himself… it was okay if he didn't have the mask since his Fighting Specialty was now graded D already. No Steel Sword was okay too; he had earned 237 points of Skill Value, which could be considered a small compensation. It was no problem if his gun was gone. Those bullets wouldn’t bring much profit, so he just needed to throw them to the shop. He had the [Anti-gravity Launching Device] anyway, even if this weapon could shoot out only one thing at a time. Then, although the others and NPCs would deem him as a lunatic in most of the scenarios, this weapon was still a far-range weapon. In case there was a Nokia store in some scenario, with this weapon, even if Gundam came here, he still could deal with that, isn’t it so?
By the way, it wasn't that he hadn't acquired anything from this scenario. At least, his spiritual weapon had been upgraded as his Death Poker had four special effects now. So, would it be pretty far to the fifth or the sixth special effect? And, he had had the chance to test the effect of SCP-500. Turned out it was so marvelous it could even regrow a cut limb. Generally speaking, he had lost some and gained some.
As Feng Bujue was still trying to self-console and persuade himself, a notification popped up on his touch screen. He thought some GM was contacting him. When he glared at the screen, he saw it was Long-ge’s incoming call.
He accepted, and the voice of Longao Min resounded.
"Hey, Feng-Ge, long time no see."
"Ha, ha, it’s been several days." Feng Bujue smiled.
"Yeah, yeah. Playing this game messes my concept of time." Longao Min also smiled. "I've finished a scenario, and I saw you're idle. So, what about teaming up?"
"Ah… Well, I was forced to quit a scenario. Now I can't join any party."
"Huh? You were also forced quit a scenario?" Longao Min asked suspiciously. "You’d met bad teammates?"
"It’s too lengthy. Never mind," Feng Bujue answered. This excuse worked every time. Longao Min laughed, understood the matter and didn't ask further.
Feng Bujue seized the chance and changed the topic. "Hey, Long-Ge, do you remember Like Rain and Dispirited Laughing Bones?"
"Yeah, they're the two heroines in the haunted house scenario, right. They've added me as a friend," answered Longao Min.
"Yeah, these two, Little Tan and me have established a union," Feng Bujue said. "Are you interested in—"
"Ah, too bad, I have joined a Union already," Longao Min didn’t wait until Feng Bujue had finished. He subtly denied while explaining. "The members of my current Union are all my colleagues. I’m sorry, I can’t be able to join to you guys."
"It’s okay. It doesn’t affect teaming up for quests," Feng Bujue answered. He also didn't think that it wasn’t right. Almost all players had some friends in reality playing the same game. The future Online Games could be one of the social intercourse methods in the office. It’s quite a common business.
However, there was something odd about Longao Min’s Union. He said that the members of his union were all his colleagues… It was also right. However, they weren’t the policemen in his department.
Currently, Longao Min had been transferred to the Network Police Department, and it was evident that his Union was a skirmish structure… Longao Min used to get hurt so it would be hard for him to travel a lot. But if they let him sit in the office, it was a waste of his talent. Thus… he had been transferred to a more suitable unit.
