Relax, I'm not some troublemaker from a role-playing game.

Chapter 20 is that strong?!



Chapter 20 is that strong?!

Bai Xi stared at the module's description, and after a long while, he finally managed to utter a sentence:

"To be honest, this module looks like Nyarlathotep is here."

Standing to the side, Jiang Lingyi nodded in deep agreement.

Nyarlathotep, or rather, Nyarlathotep, could be considered one of the three highest-ranking gods even among the Outer Gods.

However, this person has a small problem: he ranks first among the people that tabletop role-playing players least want to encounter in the game.

After all, this guy represents chaos and is known as the God of a Thousand Faces. He has countless incarnations, which manifest in various modules as the Super Fun Guy and the Scapegoat.

No matter what kind of random or nonsensical modules they are, once they're associated with Nyarlathotep, there's only one outcome:

It must all be Nyarlathotep's fault!

It's truly moving.

"The module secrets will only be revealed after the car is completed. As for the secret team, we should be in the same group?"

Bai Xi glanced at the module's information and asked again. Jiang Lingyi thought for a moment and replied:

"I think so. This game shouldn't require breaking up teams. By then, our secrets should be the same."

The so-called secret group is actually somewhat like a PvP game. Each player has their own secret information and purpose, and their task in participating in the module is to complete the secret.

These secrets typically include, but are not limited to, traditional skills such as player-versus-player combat, sabotage, and backstabbing.

Bai Xi had no idea that his second group would start running secret missions.

And they actually escaped from the ghoul-level starting village...?

If even Ghoul-level monsters have Kel'Thuzad's projection, what must Shoggoth-level monsters be like? Can you please let me go back to Ghoul-level?! I feel like I haven't even left the starting area yet!

Bai Xi twitched the corners of his mouth, sighed, and placed both hands on the screen to bring up the vehicle card interface.

He hasn't bought a new card since Smith tore it up last time.

This time, I felt much more confident about the car. After all, I had 30 ancient coins in my pocket, so even if I got a junk car, I still had a chance of getting another one.

A single trip on a loaded cart costs 10 ancient coins, which is equivalent to a hundred yuan at today's market price—it's practically robbery!

But there's nothing we can do now; we can only rely on our luck.

As Bai Xi pondered this, she glanced at Jiang Lingyi, who seemed completely unaffected, and tears involuntarily streamed down her face.

Damn it, how can there be such a huge difference between people?

Jiang Lingyi, standing next to her, only needs to press the card to get a War God card with 570 attributes and no luck. On the other hand, every time they get a card, it feels like gambling!

That's absolutely amazing.

Noticing Bai Xi's gaze, Jiang Lingyi shrugged and waved her phone:

"I'm still using the vehicle's own card this time."

For a moment, Bai Xi fell silent, and his gaze toward Jiang Lingyi became somewhat dangerous.

"Get the hell out of here!"

While cursing bitterly, Bai Xi resolutely pressed the car card button.

Although it's already been released, could you please release another God of War card?

【HP11 MP12 San40 DB1d4】

Damn, this is incredible! Where did this team wipe engine come from?

Bai Xi's lips twitched, and then everything went black.

This is absolutely unacceptable. Although Sanity isn't that important, 40 Willpower means that if you lose 8 points of Sanity, you'll enter a state of unpredictable madness, which is still too much to handle.

The attribute is just slightly above the average. After hesitating for a moment, Bai Xi pressed the button to reactivate the card.

That strong?!

Bai Xi pressed the save button at lightning speed, his expression turning into one of "That strong?"

Only Jiang Lingyi, standing to the side, glanced at Bai Xi sideways, and after a long while, she finally spoke:

"Who was it that said appearance is the most useless attribute in this game?"

That is incorrect.

Bai Xi's expression turned serious: "In terms of appearance, she can please others; in terms of appearance, she can sell her body to become a gigolo. She is truly a top-notch candidate in terms of attributes."

"Who says looks don't matter? I, a member of the 'looks-obsessed' club, am ready to fight them to the death!"

Seeing Bai Xi's nonchalant attitude, Jiang Lingyi was at her wit's end. She simply skipped the topic and asked instead:

"What kind of card are you planning to get this time?"

She tilted her head and asked, "This card's stats don't seem very suitable for being a main damage dealer, do they? The difference from the previous card's 16 HP is too big; 9 HP makes it completely fragile."

"Let me think... with a constitution of 35, how about I go for a pretty boy?"

Bai Xi pondered for a moment before saying, "I think this is a very promising career. With an 85 in appearance, it's a shame not to use negotiation cards. Let's go with the traveler."

As Bai Xi spoke, she deftly filled in the attributes of the character card. Not long after she finished speaking, a character card was freshly created.

Jiang Lingyi leaned over to take a look at Bai Xi's character card, then turned back to look at Bai Xi, who seemed a little guilty.

"Can you explain why you, as a traveler, have leveled your jump attack to 80?"

"For self-defense!"

Bai Xi straightened his back and said in a resounding voice. Jiang Lingyi sighed:

"I think you're just addicted to jumping and splitting people's necks."

"Ahem, it feels good..."

As Bai Xi spoke, she looked away.

Jiang Lingyi continued to look through Bai Xi's character card. Overall, it was a decent negotiation card.

This game modifies the class skills of some professions, including the Traveler. These include two arbitrary negotiation skills, natural history, psychology, navigation, reconnaissance, swimming, and a personal specialization.

Bai Xi was very pragmatic in this regard. Besides raising the Jump Slash skill to 80, he raised Psychology, Investigation, Persuasion, and Appealing to all 70 points. The Credit Rating, which reflects the card's wealth level, was given 40 points.

However, the remaining interest skill points are a bit of a mess.

When Jiang Lingyi saw that Bai Xi had given his special skill to Stealth and maxed out his interest skill points to 80, she felt a sudden wave of dizziness.

"Then explain what this stealth is all about?"

"Look at me, I only have 9 health and no armor or anything. Don't I need to invest some survivability?"

Bai Xi answered as if it were a matter of course, while Jiang Lingyi rubbed her temples and asked again:

"Then what's the deal with your 40 miraculous skills?"

"Well, I just realized I had 30 skill points left, so it was just a quick thing to do."

Bai Xi coughed lightly twice in response to Jiang Lingyi's words.

He then bought a regular steel sword item card from the shop for 5 ancient coins. This item has a damage rating of 1d6+2 and also has a piercing attribute.

After equipping the new character card, Bai Xi arbitrarily named it "Lawrence Bai" and submitted the character card.

As the character card was submitted, the screen in front of us suddenly changed.

[All character cards have been submitted]
