Chapter 564 It’s Fifty-Fifty Now!
[Do you want to settle the mission points? ]
[Settle! ]
After returning to the room, Duanmu Huai couldn't wait to start the mission settlement. Soon, a line of information appeared in front of him.
[Task settlement... Settlement completed]
[Haunted House Horror———Rating A]
[The Haze of Innsmouth———Rating A]
[Fatal Exhibition———Rating C]
[The Source of Fear———Rating A]
[Death Train———Rating B]
[Airship Murders———Rating A]
[Dark City———Rating S]
[The Baskerville Demon Dog——Rating A]
[Lakeside Ecstasy——Rating B]
[The Lost Temple——Rating B]
[A total of 320 soul points]
[Each 50 points consumed can open the soul treasure chest]
[Do you want to open the treasure chest? 】
The Dark City has the highest rating, probably because I took the trouble to go to Antarctica. There is no way that other tasks have low ratings. After all, even if Mary said that Duanmu Huai himself is not the kind of investigator who is good at outsmarting, he prefers to solve problems with fists. Of course, there is another important point, that is, after Duanmu Huai heard the intelligence, he almost guessed the true face of the monster through the knowledge he saw on the player forum, which is also fatal.
After all, generally speaking, investigators need to find clues in the case, and then determine the type of monster through diaries or records in certain magic books, which is also a part of the investigation. It’s just that Duanmu Huai was too troublesome and directly omitted this link. After guessing what kind of monster it was, he directly hit it.
This is also another reason why, except for the Dark City task, the other tasks have not been rated S-level.
Well, 320 points, which means that I can only open six boxes?
This is also good, six sixes are very smooth.
Then next, wash your hands, wash your hair, then take a bath, burn incense, and pray.
It’s time to open the box!
The first draw—————!
Click
The treasure chest slowly opened, and there was a golden light!
Good stuff!
"Pah."
A black iron rod with only the top painted red fell to the ground.
"……………………"
What is this?
Duanmu Huai silently picked up the crowbar.
What use do I have for this thing?
Forget it, at least it is a close combat weapon. Now that the cane is lost, I can still keep it for emergency use.
Second draw————!
………Cigarette? What's the use of this thing? Does it mean that I should smoke a cigarette to calm down? Or should I give someone a cigarette to calm him down when I see him?
Third draw———!
Lighter, do you want me to use it with cigarettes? You are really considerate.
Fourth draw——!
Fruit knife………………for peeling apples?
Fifth draw——!
Blank diary, I don't write a diary, I'm not stupid.
Last draw! The luck I have accumulated before depends on this time!
An ivory dice.
Fuck me...
Looking at the pile of garbage in front of him, Duanmu Huai couldn't help but swear.
What the hell is this! You don't give me some good stuff, right!
It seems that there is no hope for Golden Eyes now, oh...I really lost a lot this time.
I should have saved up enough for ten consecutive draws, at least there would be a guarantee...
After silently complaining, Duanmu Huai reached out his hand to shut down the system, but at this moment, he suddenly found that the system popped up another prompt.
[Detected that the player killed the Old One—Serpent God Yig]
[Activated God Killer Special Effect]
[…………Player obtains special title—Old God]
[Player obtains Old God Traits]
[Old God Traits (Loss of Sanity): Your enemies cannot easily see through your true self. When they recognize your existence or look directly at you, they will lose 1D10/1D100 sanity and fall into a (temporary/permanent) state of madness]
[Old God Traits (Past Vision): When you touch an object, you can obtain information about its past. The long river of history flows forward, but the past has no secrets in front of you]
“…………………………”
MMP.
Seeing this, Duanmu Huai just wanted to raise his middle finger. Well, this is even more outrageous than the fear aura. At least the fear aura will only tremble for a round even if it passes the identification, and it will return to normal later. As a result, when it comes to this side, as long as others recognize my existence, they may fall into permanent madness?
This system is forcing me to death. I go crazy after just one look. What kind of situation is this?
I think I look like a human being, okay!
But look at what skills this has?
Either trembles or goes crazy with fear.
Either it's a fear aura or it loses its mind.
Can't we get some charm? Being a pretty boy is better than this, right?
Fortunately, this only works on enemies, otherwise Duanmu Huai feels that he can only wear a hood when he goes out.
It's the kind of black one that bank robbers wear in movies, leaving only eyes and mouth... Why do I feel that it's easier to be caught like this?
On the contrary, [Past Vision] is still a bit useful, which reminds Duanmu Huai of the Treacherous Trick. Remember that it can see the past and present at the same time, but can't see the future. Now, I have the same power, which means that I am now 50-50 with the Treacherous Trick!
Speaking of which, I had used the ability [Past Vision] a few times in that copy, but at that time I couldn't activate it at will, but now it seems that I can use it casually.
Um……………
If I go into the bathroom and use [Past Vision], I can see the girl who used to take a bath in the bathroom... Is that right?
Well, this ability is somewhat interesting.
Duanmuhuai gave a silent thumbs up.
Just when Duanmu Huai was admiring his new abilities, Star Alliance quickly started taking action.
Due to Duan Muhuai's warning, the Star Alliance restrained its desire for expansion and only opened up colonies in several galaxies near its own galaxy. Of course, it's not like there aren't idiots who ignore the Star Alliance's ban and go to other galaxies to open up wasteland. How can I put it... Take responsibility for your own affairs, and don't come back to your mother crying when the Reapers come.
Li Longcheng also informed the Citadel of this matter through human representatives.
When they learned that the reaper army would arrive in three months, the representatives of the Citadel Council were also stunned and couldn't believe it.
"Are you serious when you say that? Representative Hackett?"
"Yes, I have given the specific information to the Citadel Council, and you should have seen it."
"However, even if this is the case, it can only confirm that an unidentified fleet is approaching, but it cannot prove that it is a reaper."
Facing the Citadel representative who frowned and stared at him dissatisfied, diplomat Hackett shrugged his shoulders.
"We in the Star Alliance have not proven to you that this is the reason for the Reaper fleet. In short, we have warned you. Whether you are willing to listen to the warning is your own business. From now on, the Star Alliance will all evacuate the Citadel , we will completely block the Star Alliance border and prepare for the battle with the Reapers - Oh, by the way, in order to prevent the Reaper fleet from marching in, we will destroy all the mass relays connected to our star field. Please do this. Everyone understands.”
"What?!"
Hearing this, the other three parliamentary representatives were also shocked.
To be honest, until just now, they all thought this might be some kind of political maneuver by the Star Alliance, but destroying the mass relay was another matter. This is equivalent to completely isolating one's own race from other races, which is simply closing the country! You must know that without a mass relay, traveling to and from various galaxies is not a simple matter!
Star Alliance has made it clear that it will stay behind closed doors. Are the Reapers really coming?
At this time, the representatives of the other three tribes also began to be suspicious.
But Representative Hackett obviously did not intend to stay here for a long time. As a soldier, he originally did not like this kind of political mission. Fortunately, Li Longcheng had ordered him to return to the fleet. After all, when the Reapers were about to attack, it was pointless for the Star Alliance to send people to stay in the Citadel. They were just going to die.
"Wait, Representative Hackett."
Just when Hackett was about to turn around and leave, another Citadel councilor stopped him. He stared at Hackett and asked doubtfully.
"If what you said is true, then shouldn't it be more important for us to unite at this time and fight against the enemy together?"
"What you said is absolutely true, but..."
Having said this, Representative Hackett gave a wry smile.
"I don't think it means anything."
"…………?"
"Our Commander Sherbert has previously reported to you the news about the arrival of the Reapers. In fact, the Citadel was indeed attacked by the Reapers at that time, wasn't it? But you just took it as a It was Geth’s conspiracy, and the Citadel Council didn’t take any action after that.”
"this……………"
After hearing what Representative Hackett said, the expressions on the faces of the representatives of the other three tribes looked a little stiff.
"As you have said, the arrival of the Reapers is the biggest crisis we have encountered so far, so the Star Alliance has been preparing for it since we got the news. But even so, we still don't have enough time... ...To be honest, it is quite difficult for Star Alliance to protect itself right now, and we may not be able to help you."
This is also the reason Li Longcheng told Representative Hackett. Only Li Longcheng himself knows the real reason. After all, Duanmu Huai told him. Frankly speaking, Li Longcheng had also considered whether to do this, but...the Shepards and his brother discovered so much evidence one after another, and raised their opinions to the Citadel Council again and again, but the latter turned a deaf ear.
In this case, there is nothing Li Longcheng can do.
As the saying goes, good words cannot persuade a person to die, and mercy cannot save a person. The Citadel Council is so stupid that it seeks death. Of course, there is no need for humans to sacrifice their lives in vain for their stupidity and arrogance, right?
Not to mention, Star Alliance had only fought with Turians before, so it’s hard to say how good the relationship between the two parties was.
And I don't have a good impression of the other two races that are biased.
Li Longcheng knew that the reason why the Star Alliance had a say in the Citadel Council was not because of the good relations between humans and these three races, but because the Inquisition's fleet was so powerful that they did not dare not listen.
The truth is that the bigger the fist, the more it is proved that it is not feasible to reason with these people. The Star Alliance had already informed the Citadel Council of the coming of the Reaper, and had been preparing for it during this period, manufacturing a large number of warships and expanding the army. As a result, the Citadel Council suspected that the Star Alliance was using the Reaper, who was nowhere to be found, as an excuse to expand its military strength!
Of course, it is normal to think so in general, but your Citadel was robbed by the Reaper! It was our Commander Shepard who killed it!
It is a bit too much for you to pretend to be blind after all this.
Li Longcheng had also contacted the leader of the Asari and tried to persuade her, but the other party said, "We Asari are the oldest, greatest and first civilization to enter the interstellar in this galaxy. We have seen everything. Don't mess with you, a yellow-mouthed child." Li Longche was speechless.
In this case, we had to do as Duanmu Huai said and send them to death.
Well, the judgment court is right after all. Those who are not of my kind must have different hearts.
There are still three months before the arrival of the reapers.
For Li Longcheng, now he can only rely on the judgment court.
