Strange Era: An Exclusive Talent Every Month

Chapter 212 Extracting the Second Exclusive Talent (Two-in-One)

Volume 2: The Ferryman

Dark clouds enveloped the entire Linjiang City, and the drizzle of rain hit the transparent glass shop windows. The water droplets crawled through the windows, leaving traces of winding snakes.

The rain is no longer the color of blood, but a normal color.

In Linjiang City, where there is almost no sunshine, such a scene seems normal for a long time.

Under the dim light, Chen Ye leaned on the sofa with his legs crossed, his hands crossed, and his deep pupils seemed to reflect an invisible streak of blood.

He seemed to be looking at something in front of him, thinking intently.

But there was nothing in front of him, only delicious-looking cakes covered in cheese, neatly placed in the surrounding windows.

Under the warm light, it has a warmer atmosphere.

"Master, here I come!"

Suddenly, a clear voice in the distance rushed over in the form of a cloud of gray mist.

The gray mist then outlined Yu Xian, who was wearing a Tengu mask and wearing wooden clogs. He jumped out of the gray mist air ball and looked at Chen Yedao with a shy and flattering smile on his face:

"Ahem, master, can I start eating?"

Chen Ye's body didn't move at all, but his eyes turned to glance at Yu Xian with a strange angle. His whole body was as motionless as a wax sculpture.

"Then...I started?"

Yu Xian glanced at Chen Ye with a guilty conscience and felt a sense of oppression from his somewhat abnormal behavior.

Chen Ye didn't say anything more, just nodded his head in an invisible manner.

After receiving the owner's approval, Yu Xian carefully took a piece of cake from the window and began to chew it carefully.

He didn't even dare to make his usual chirping sounds.

While he was eating, he secretly turned towards Chen Ye with his peripheral vision, and found that the other person's eyes were turned at a strange angle, looking at him squarely!

This look... inexplicably made Yu Xian feel frightened in his heart!

The cake in my mouth no longer tastes good.

He wondered what he had done wrong with his head? Or is the owner in a bad mood? Could it be that he is possessed by evil spirits?

But after a while, Yu Xian discovered that Chen Ye's eyes were not actually looking at him.

Precisely……

It’s like he’s staring at what’s behind him!

Yu Xian suddenly shuddered, as if something was peering into his secret. He moved his body slightly and looked behind him...

The delicious cake, illuminated by the warm lamp, reflects vaguely on the window.

Apart from that, there is nothing...

Yu Xian was stunned for a moment, wondering if he was being too suspicious. After all, that adult was usually like this.

The master must behave like a master!

Perhaps, this master, who looks only slightly older than me, is also learning to act like a qualified master, right?

In fact.

Chen Ye is indeed looking at Yu Xian.

But to be precise, he should be looking at the bloody words that gradually condensed from the sticky blood around Yu Xian.

[Hehe, the devil who kills two birds with one stone is really in high spirits today! 】

[The mouth of a licking dog has a quick and dexterous tongue. No wonder it can serve two masters at the same time. 】

[No wonder, after benefiting from the two masters, I am becoming more and more confident. 】

That's right!

This blood-colored text is the exclusive talent Chen Yexin obtained.

Combined with the Eye of Luck, he saw that Yuxian's aura energy had indeed become stronger than before.

as well as……

The line of purple energy is thicker and more conspicuous, which means that Yu Xian continues to swallow the devil's food and his energy is increasing.

The information given by the bloody text has a certain value.

Part of the energy of the feather string does come from itself.

But if that's all...then the speed of progress may not be that fast.

This means that there is another part of Yuxian's energy, which comes from another of his original masters.

The owner who gave Chen Ye a bone ring with a feather string that could penetrate the wall to help Chen Ye enter the broadcasting building.

"Yuxian."

Chen Ye suddenly called out.

"Master, what are your orders?"

The moment he heard the call, Yu Xian immediately stopped chewing and stood up solemnly, as if he was ready to help others at any time.

"Who am I to you?" Chen Ye suddenly asked.

Yuxian replied almost without thinking: "Of course you are my most noble master!"

"hey-hey……"

"You're the best to me!"

That harmless and ingratiating smile, coupled with the pure white face, really makes it hard for people to feel disgusted.

"This mouth is really clever!" Chen Ye sighed silently.

It seems that the information given by the bloody text is quite accurate!

Since the first two are almost 90% correct, the only remaining one is "obtaining benefits from two masters", which is difficult to verify...

But this is enough to prove that the bloody text will give correct information.

It's just expressed in its own unique way.

As for whether the receiver can interpret it accurately, it has nothing to do with the text itself.

In addition, Chen Ye moved his eyes slightly upward and looked at the 'Snake Hair Cream Cake' placed on the window display cabinet.

[The cake is beautiful, but ugly. 】

【It tastes delicious, but hard to eat. 】

[The person who made the cake is really not a human being! 】

If ordinary players see the description of bloody words, their faces will definitely turn black, wondering what the hell this thing is talking about?

What about playing contradictory literature?

But Chen Ye knows that such a description is actually quite accurate for the "snake hair cream cake" he has carefully developed.

It is wrapped in cream on the outside and looks very delicate.

However, as long as you bite a few more times, the snake inside will pop out and scare you!

From this point of view, Chen Ye's cake is indeed very good-looking, but also very ugly.

Cream, generally gives players the impression that it is sweet.

However...

The cream of the Weird Era has a very thick fishy smell and is not very delicious.

It needs to be paired with specific ingredients to be delicious.

Therefore, if you only bite the outer layer of cream, you will feel particularly nauseous and nauseous, and you will not want to eat it after a few bites.

But if you eat it with the snake hair and mushrooms inside, it will have a unique flavor.

This is indeed delicious, but it is also very unpalatable.

Only the description of the last sentence, Chen Ye feels a little rude.

Of course.

Think about how I cook as a [Devil's Cook], it's really hard to call myself a "human"!

"Does this thing pop up no matter what I look at now?"

Chen Ye smiled bitterly, looking at the exclusive talent he unlocked, and didn't know whether he should laugh three times or cry three times.

This talent is really useful.

But, it is everywhere, as long as you see something, relevant text descriptions will pop up.

It's like in the scene reflected in the pupil, there will always be a long string of bullet screens floating by, which really blocks the view!

It's hard to see things clearly.

Moreover, this thing still pops up in the form of blood, which is creepy.

Always staring at this thing, I feel uncomfortable all over.

But the bloody text has another more convenient use...

As Chen Ye's mind moved, the bloody text gradually formed a panel——

[Personal Panel]

3. Other Features: [Parasitic Deed], [Forbidden Tentacles], [Lucky Pitcher]

…………

At this time, Chen Ye's exclusive talent has a new talent——

[Blood Word Research]

This is Chen Ye's exclusive talent for this month.

No matter what you look at, blood-colored words will appear, like a riddle man, making an abstract statement.

It seems that I have to study the mysteries hidden in these blood-colored words to know what the specific information is.

In addition, [Blood Word Research] has a special function——

That is, it can project the words on the blood-colored mobile phone screen into the field of vision directly in front.

Control with thoughts.

Not only can you open your personal panel, you can also smoothly send messages, browse forums, chat on the public screen, and browse the latest items on the [Weird Black Market].

This function is quite convenient, at least you don't have to take out your bloody phone to operate it.

I don't know if it's because the text on the bloody screen is also bloody, so it can echo the exclusive talent of [Blood Word Research].

And Chen Ye's personal assets have one million more copper coins.

That one million is actually the copper coins collected from players after the "All Living Beings Concert".

After all, this is a concert covering the entire city, and the number of copper coins earned is of course extremely large!

Except for some penniless homeless people, the copper coins collected from players are as high as one million.

On average, each audience pays one copper coin as a performance fee.

The unit price is not very high...

This should be because Chen Ye's performance this time was completed in an "online" form, not an offline face-to-face performance, so the performance fee collected is not very high.

If you think about it carefully, it is also normal.

A star's song only costs three yuan on the online platform, but the concert tickets can easily cost hundreds or thousands.

The unit price of his "online" performance in the Weird Era is much better than that of the stars in the old era.

Finally...

Chen Ye's eyes fell on the Weird Value that turned into a question mark.

He was not the only one.

Through the discussion on the public screen and the forum, the Weird Value of all players turned into a question mark.

It was like it was completely invalidated...

After all, the bonus brought by the Weird Value is only obvious for some professions.

But the specific improvement is still very vague.

Moreover... the Weird Value is only displayed on the screen of the bloody mobile phone to represent the value of growth this month.

However, it is not particularly obvious where the specific growth is.

"Is it just the value of the competition game for one month?" Chen Ye frowned and pondered secretly.

But if it was that simple, then the "weird value" should disappear like the "governance value" when the list was settled.

However, the weird value was still left in each player's personal panel.

But... the value behind it was not displayed, and it became a question mark?

This is a bit unreasonable.

At this time, Chen Ye's mind moved, and the "lucky dice" appeared in the palm of his red glove.

At this time...

Chen Ye's spiritual power suddenly sent a special feeling.

It was as if there was some kind of pulling energy that bound himself and the characteristics of the fate sequence to one place.

Since playing yesterday's "All Living Beings Concert", Chen Ye clearly felt that his connection with the entire City of Destiny had become closer.

Whenever he closed his eyes, he would feel as if there were countless indescribable, unpredictable, and incomprehensible beings lurking in various places in this city, buried deep underground, or towering above the sky...

This feeling seemed to be something that other players did not have, but when the weirdness value became a question mark, such special feelings often invaded Chen Ye, making his spirit feel inexplicably uneasy.

Chen Ye's intuition told him that the influence of the weirdness value still existed, but it was very likely in a form that the players could not understand!

What exactly was the situation...

He recalled the sense of déjà vu that Bai Chen mentioned, thought for a moment, and finally sighed and gave up.

When the status is not enough, thinking about these things that transcend oneself is harmful and has no benefit.

According to the law of the weird era, the smaller you are, the less you should go beyond what you should not know.

At present, the only thing that matters is to improve your strength as soon as possible, find the promotion materials for the fourth transfer of [Ferryman], and determine the subsequent promotion sequence with [Devil Cook]!

Chen Ye plans to throw the "lucky dice" again to see which aspects the recent important events will correspond to.

As the dice is thrown up and falls back to the ground...

Da Da Da!

When the dice falls to the ground, it makes a crisp sound, rolls rapidly for several rounds, and suddenly stands on it in a strange posture!

"3" and "4" are almost simultaneously upward at an angle.

After a while, the dice loses balance and automatically falls on the number "4".

"In other words, my next event is related to the spiritual numbers three and four, and finally falls back to four..."

Chen Ye stroked his chin and tried to interpret the dice that had a more peculiar phenomenon this time.

At this moment, the bloody text appeared in front of him again, lingering above the dice.

[Luck? Something that the weak believe in! ]

[But there is nothing wrong with believing in luck. ]

[It is the whole, and also a part of it. 】

"Here it comes again!"

"The exclusive riddle of the bloody text..."

Chen Ye complained in his heart, his eyes focused on the newly appeared bloody text, suddenly frowned, and studied it carefully.

The description that appeared this time was more abstract!

Among them.

The first two sentences were very contradictory.

It mocked the belief in luck, and understood the reason for believing in luck...

What does the last "it" refer to?

What is the whole and what is the part?

Chen Ye was suddenly confused and found it difficult to understand what the bloody text wanted to express.

But it was normal. After all, he just saw a "lucky dice". It was completely unrealistic to expect that the exclusive talent could solve the puzzle of the entire city of destiny!

"Ding!"

Just then, a notification sound came from the bloody mobile phone.

Chen Ye habitually took out the bloody mobile phone in his pocket, but his right hand stopped in mid-air and suddenly froze.

That's right!

Don't I have the talent of [Blood Word Research]?

You only need to think to open the panel, why waste energy to take out the phone?

Adhering to the principles of energy saving, convenience, courage to try and get used to using the latest operations, Chen Ye communicated with the bloody text with his mind and opened the information list.

Lines of cumbersome text, with that familiar tone, appeared in the center of Chen Ye's vision.

[Wang Jing: "Hahaha, big brother, I didn't expect you to really get that thing of Hua Shao!"]

[Wang Jing: "Hmph! The group of frogs in the well in the forum always look down on the boss and think that you have no chance to kill the opponent."]

[Wang Jing: "Now those players are completely dumb. Recently, the forum is full of praise for you. It's so cool to see!"]

Chen Ye suddenly felt that compared with Yuxian, this is a truly clever mouth... No, to be precise, it should be a stormy mouth.

It's not just a licking!

Compared with Wang Jing, Yuxian's tongue is as green as a clumsy rookie.

【Chen Ye: "By the way, how are you doing recently?"】

【Wang Jing: "It's still the same as before, but now this shop is not only for tasting, but also for catering. Business is better than before."】

【Chen Ye: "Are you interested in working in my shop?"】

【Wang Jing: "What? Boss? I have a chance to work under you."】

【Chen Ye: "Well, I'll pay you 200 copper coins a day, daily, until you don't want to work anymore."】

【Wang Jing: "Boss, don't talk about salary, I'll even work for free, hehe, I'll follow you from now on!"】

[Chen Ye: "Okay... free is unrealistic, so forget it. When you are free, come to Shop No. 5 on West Street 3rd Road. There should be no danger around here."]

[Wang Jing: "Okay! Boss, wait for me! I will clean up the shop. It's a bit late today, so I may not be able to go there until tomorrow."]

[Chen Ye: "Well, just come over when you are free."]

After the communication ended, Chen Ye looked outside West Street, where more and more silhouettes of people appeared.

The lights of the nearby shops were transparent, but most of them were hung with curtains, so only the blurred outlines inside could be seen, and it was unclear what was inside, ensuring a certain degree of privacy.

After all, most of the owners of these shops have been rented by players.

Now...

This paradise is going to be completely transformed into a paradise for players!

After a period of adaptation, players have been interacting in the paradise.

The traffic on the pedestrian street has gradually increased.

In addition to the players, there seem to be some natives coming and going.

The honest restaurant he runs is expected to welcome a group of customers.

Wang Jing, that silly boy, doesn't have much in mind, so he can still be recruited to help run the store.

Chen Ye doesn't intend to give up the profits from the physical store.

After all...

This month's ranking list has become a new list -

[Asset Rising List! ]
