Chapter 279: Laziness: Too Lazy to Want to Fight
Lu Ce looked at the message he received, then flipped his hand and took out a long needle of dark gold color.
A-001, Gate of the Reaper.
This thing was indeed useful; in terms of avoiding instant kills, it was even a level above potions.
For this dual-world backpack, Lu Ce had specially brought this item along, wanting to take a closer look.
This thing pierced through the heart yet surprisingly had a life-saving effect.
To be honest, when he was wearing the Jealousy Mask back then, if it had been his true self, he definitely wouldn’t have risked it.
Looking at the message Xie Antong sent him about giving up reputation and forcibly taking, he thought for a moment and typed:
Sin: Shouldn’t a person like me be doing this kind of thing?
He wasn’t really trying to blacken the item; it was just that his speech needed to fit the character.
Xie Antong: ......The feeling of this meat bun hitting the dog was just too fast.
Next to Lu Ce, a metal sphere slowly took off and spoke in his ear.
“What’s up? What are you looking at that needle for?”
“I’m telling you, you absolutely cannot return that to her!”
Lu Ce: ?
He glanced at the Black Knight and said,
“Oh? I thought you liked her quite a bit, didn’t expect you to be so inhumane behind her back.”
“What the hell do you mean ‘inhumane’? I’m a motorcycle!” The metal sphere spun and said.
This time, the things Lu Ce brought out were these four—the Black Knight, the cloak, the Gate of the Reaper, and a dice.
The Black Knight continued,
“But I’m telling you, you really have to keep this thing.”
“What holds people together? It’s mutual debts! You owe me a little, I owe you a little, only then can things last!”
“Got it?”
Lu Ce: ......
“With this thing, you two have even more reason to team up often. When she asks for your help, she’ll have an excuse, and then you can help a bit more. It becomes a cycle!”
“Besides, this life-hanging thing is obviously for reckless guys. People who use their brains don’t need it. Just give it to you as a token of affection.”
The Black Knight, as usual, kept up his chatter, making Lu Ce’s head ache.
Originally, he brought this out to chat with someone who could sense his existence, but now he somewhat regretted it.
“You’re messing up the matchmaking, aren’t you?”
“You sound so serious. Aren’t you a motorcycle? Why do you talk like you understand human relationships?”
“Of course! I’ve traveled more roads than you’ve eaten meals!” The Black Knight said confidently.
“But obviously, meals and roads can’t be measured the same way...”
“As long as you get the meaning. Anyway, the martial world isn’t just about fights, it’s about human affairs! You’ll learn it slowly!”
Lu Ce grabbed the metal sphere from the air, casually tossed it into the corner of the room, and continued to look at his screen.
Meanwhile, Xie Antong had already sent a string of ellipses.
Blank: ......
Blank: So, you’re not planning to return it, huh?
Sin: Not exactly saying that.
After a while, the game screen directly sent a team invitation—Blank’s next game team invite.
Whether from her understanding of Lu Ce or of Sin, Xie Antong felt the other party wouldn’t refuse.
Returning it or not wasn’t the main point; the key was the next joint team-up.
Lu Ce said nothing and directly clicked agree.
The two tacitly fell silent, and after agreeing to team up, they didn’t talk anymore.
It was a very stiff teammate relationship.
Lu Ce didn’t say much either. After locking the door to his game room, he confirmed the next game time, then lay down to rest.
Although perfect game clear recoveries also restored his spirit, effectively replenishing energy,
he was still used to sleeping in the real world.
......
Opening his eyes again, the game prompt had already appeared.
Next game start time: 00:07:53!
Please prepare accordingly.
Please choose to be a spectator or a player.
“Player!”
Honored strongest player, welcome to the game. This time you have chosen to team up and will play with [Blank].
Team mode is no different from normal mode, only ensuring that teammates are on the same side.
The routine messages were all things Lu Ce was used to by now.
Please prepare for the start, and check your backpack items.
......
Please player “Sin,” choose whether to use the previously used Original Sin Mask, respectively...
“Random!”
By now, only Arrogance and Laziness modes remained.
He decided to unlock all the modes in one go first, then consider the overload issue later.
He actually suspected the mask’s real level wasn’t just A...
But soon, something unusual happened.
The game prompt sound seemed to stall slightly.
Player has made a choice...
Choice...
Warning: The random mask selected Laziness, but Laziness is too lazy and does not want to fight.
Lu Ce: ?
“Ah? Is that even possible?!”
Now re-randomizing... game restored.
Game initialization complete...
Please prepare accordingly.
Game difficulty: Hell Mode!
Game loading... Wedding in a Dream!
What the hell does that mean?!
So is his mask Laziness or what? Too lazy to even fight?
But there was not much time left for Lu Ce to ponder.
An uncontrollable dizziness swept over him, and he lost consciousness, beginning the game.
......
Opening his eyes again, Lu Ce sat up from the bed.
He raised his hand to touch his face—yes, the cool sensation meant the mask was still there.
Looking around, he found himself in a room similar to a hotel suite.
The walls, illuminated by warm lighting, were a cozy bright yellow.
Compared to the pigsty he had lived in before, this was many times better!
“Ring ring ring, ring ring ring!”
Just then, an alarm sounded. Lu Ce looked up and saw a princess-style clock hanging on the wall.
“Ring ring ring!”
“Attendants, please note: The dream wedding will start in exactly forty-eight hours!”
