Bai Lixin looked at Xia Chi and then at Song Lei and his friend.

Song Lei scratched his head with some embarrassment, “Thank you for giving me point coins to play with. I didn’t earn much, just won 50 more coins.”

There were 4000 point coins here, 4000 times 50, which is 200,000 mall exchange points. That was already ten times his principal.

Xia Chi’s expression was very clear; if Bai Lixin gave them all the point coins, it would increase their burden instead.

Bai Lixin threw the prop cards from his system backpack into the small bucket.

“Here’s the deal; I’ll get the principal 20,000 points back. Then this prop card,” Bai Lixin shook the prop [designated copy] prop card in his hand, “I need it, so this one goes to me. For the rest of these, let’s divide them up.”

Bai Lixin, “In terms of labor distribution, I only contributed money and not effort, so I’ll take 20%. Although Song Lei and his companion didn’t earn many coins, the tigers around here were watching, and if you two hadn’t been following Xia Chi, there’s a good chance that someone would have gone over to get him in trouble.”

“So the two of you will get 15% each, and the remaining 50% will go to Xia Chi.”

Xia Chi’s eyes widened and he raised his voice, “How can that be? Brother, I can’t take these points.”

Bai Lixin glared at him and pointed at the bucket, “Do you know what this is?”

Xia Chi hesitated, “Point coins?”

Bai Lixin, “This is your luck value! Aren’t you afraid of crushing me to death if you give me this?”

With those words, Xia Chi said nothing more.

After distributing the coins, the prop cards were divided up among the group. Prop cards are hard to come by, so Song Lei and his friend only took one each.

Xia Chi could have taken the points, but he refused the prop cards. In the end, Bai Lixin had nothing to do but to put the cards in his backpack.

The group finished redeeming the points and left rich.

Xia Chi was even smiling widely, “Brother, you are so good. Thank you for calling me over; otherwise, I would have struggled for a long time to make these points.”

Bai Lixin’s expression became more subtle, “No, in a sense, I should be the one thanking you.”

He only knew that the [designate a copy] prop card was in this game lobby, but he didn’t know how to obtain it.

The system said that the card had been hanging there for a long time, and his mind was set to think that it could only be obtained by virtue of strength, but what happened?

It depended on just a simple and crude lottery system, and it totally depended on luck.

Luck was called a fortune from heaven, but in Xia Chi’s case, it was called an unexpected situation.

So it’s because others have been having bad luck that it hangs there for so long without being won?

What kind of sick level of luck did Xia Chi have?

He still had a few exchange point cards at hand that could be directly turned into points after use.

Bai Lixin: [System.]

S419M: [I’m here, Lord Host.]

Bai Lixin: [Didn’t call you. Escape system?]

The escape system spoke slowly: [I’m here, player.]

S419M: [Oooh, I can smell the palace intrigue. Is this the legendary*”There must be one injury in a threesome”?]

Bai Lixin: [……]

Bai Lixin: [Can I directly give a player a prop?]

Escape System: [Yes, click on your friends list and long press on the other player’s name. A virtual mailbox will appear where you can put the prop and send it to the other player.]

[The mail can be saved in the virtual space for 30 days. If the other party does not receive it within 30 days, the mail will be returned automatically. The return is also another 30-day period, and returned mail will be completely destroyed if it is not claimed for 30 days.]

Bai Lixin opened the mailbox according to the system’s instructions, and he sent several prop cards and point cards to Li Cancan and Liang Xi, respectively.

After that, Bai Lixin remembered something and asked the escape system: [Can I add a person as a friend by searching for their name?]

Escape system: [No. The purpose of the chat system is to make players feel at home. But this is still an escape game, after all. It will affect the player’s experience if one just searches and is added as friends, especially those whose names are on the leaderboard.]

[So you can only add friends face to-face and not by name].

Bai Lixin regretted that he forgot to add Dijia as a friend earlier.

But could Dijia receive or accept friend requests in that state?

———————————–

After saying goodbye to Xia Chi, Bai Lixin returned to the 72nd floor, where he lived.

After going to the 50th floor, he had earned about 30,000 performance points, and after using them up, he could just fly up to the 100th floor and beyond. But he still remembered Dijia’s warning. There was no telling how angry that guy would get if he did that.

Since Dijia had given him such a warning, it seemed that rising too fast might not be a good thing.

Then these performance score cards were not suitable for Xia Chi and the others either. A steady climb was the best option, and pulling them up would have hurt them instead.

Since these performance score cards were of little use now, he threw them into the innermost part of his backpack and took out the [Access to designated copies] prop card.

This prop card could only be used once, but there were millions of copies, and he needed to first make sure that Zhou Guang was in the copy he would choose.

He remembered that time in the café when Liang Xi said it was called [Undead], but he was not sure what the exact full name was.

Liang Xi knew which exact copy Zhou Guang was, but Liang Xi was still in the copy now.

But Li Cancan was also there at that time, so she might also know.

Bai Lixin had just thought of this when the private chat window suddenly jumped.

Bai Lixin opened the friend chat interface, and it actually happened to be Li Cancan.

Li Cancan: [God Xin, I received the prop card, thank you. I will definitely work hard to clear more copies in the future and pay you back double when I earn the props.]

Bai Lixin: [No need to return it. Liang Xi and the rest also got. It just so happens that I wanted to talk to you. Do you know the name of the copy Zhou Guang entered at that time?

Li Cancan: [I remember that it was called Undead Something Symphony. That name was such a mouthful that I didn’t remember it at the time.]

The other side paused for a few seconds, [I just ran into Xia Chi and he said that you purposely took a prop card for a designated copy, and now you’re asking me which copy Zhou Guang is in. God Xin, are you going to…]

Bai Lixin: [I’m just going to see. Don’t get your hopes up. I don’t know what’s going on either.]

Li Cancan: [Damn, if only I paid attention and remembered the name of the copy.]

Bai Lixin: [I don’t blame you; you were also going through a copy, so it’s normal that you didn’t pay attention to it.]

Li Cancan: [Perhaps you should wait for Liang Xi to come out. Liang Xi followed Zhou Guang’s live stream at that time, so he should know what it was called.]

Bai Lixin: [That’s all we can do. How long before Liang Xi comes out?]

Li Cancan: [He’s been there for a day. I went through the live stream yesterday and couldn’t find him. I suddenly remembered that Liang Xi mentioned the name of the copy to Xia Chi as well.]

Bai Lixin: [Okay, you can rest first.]

The biggest trouble with this game was that the live stream could not be replayed, and they could not find the corresponding copy by keyword.

With the idea of giving it a try, Bai Lixin clicked on Xia Chi’s private chat screen.

Bai Lixin: [Xia Chi, do you know the name of the copy Zhou Guang participated in?]

Xia Chi: [Brother? I know, it’s called “The Third Symphony of the Undead”.]

Bai Lixin raised his eyebrows, he really knew?

Xia Chi: [Liang Xi mentioned it to me, and I took note of it. Hehe, don’t I have a good memory. This is the strength of one who tackled the college entrance examination.]

Xia Chi: [I understand now, Brother!!!]

Xia Chi: [The Designated copy prop card! You want to enter that copy! I want to go too. Can you take me too?! I can protect myself, you can see my luck value, it might work wonders when it matters, just take me with you! I beg you!]

Bai Lixin: [I’ll ask the system.]

The escape system seemed to be waiting there. As soon as Bai Lixin asked, it immediately replied: [You can enter the copy by teaming up. Aren’t you and player Xia Chi already teamed up? You can enter the copy together if you are in a team.]

Bai Lixin tapped on Xia Chi’s private chat dialog box: [Are you sure you want to go?]

Xia Chi: [I am. Please, brother.]

Bai Lixin: [Okay, but there is one request; protect yourself. Let me confirm with you again, what is the name of the copy?]

Xia Chi: [The Third Symphony of the Undead. Trust me, brother, I’m 100% sure.]

Liang Xi had just entered the copy, and he was afraid that if he waited too long, something would happen. So he couldn’t wait any longer.

Bai Lixin: [I’m planning to leave now, do you want to take a break.]

Xia Chi: [I’m already rested; let’s go, brother!]

Bai Lixin: [Okay. I’ll give you another half hour to prepare. Check the points mall and see if there’s anything you need to buy, I’ll use the prop card in half an hour.]

Xia Chi: [Okay, then I’ll prepare. I have never been a nouveau riche and now I can finally feel it.

———————

Half an hour later, Bai Lixin opened the prop card.

[Ding! Hello player, please select the copy you want to go to and the number of people going to the copy.]

[Copy of “The Third Symphony of the Undead”, 2 participants, player Bai Lixin and player Xia Chi.]

[Ding! The copy and players are successfully locked. The copy will be opened in 5 seconds. Do you want to enter this copy immediately?]

Bai Lixin: [Yes, enter immediately.]

[Ding! Consuming the [designate a copy] prop card X1. You will enter the game copy in 3 seconds, have a good game.]

[3, 2, 1…]

As the system counted down, Bai Lixin’s private chat alert sounded, but before he could click on it, Bai Lixin’s eyes went black, and a vortex sucked him in.

In the empty darkness, the usual customary introduction to the background of the copy began.

[Ding! Welcome players to the copy of [The Third Symphony of the Undead-Night Walk of A Hundred Ghosts].

When he heard the words “Night Walk of a Hundred Ghosts”, Bai Lixin suddenly realized that something was not quite right.

The copy that Zhou Guang entered had the physical “undead” like the undead skeletons in Western fantasy, but the words “Night Walk of a Hundred Ghosts” sounded like the soul type of ghosts.

[This is a magical spiritual world where the living and the undead are gathered. In this complex spiritual world, there is a special and hospitable house called the “Red Apple House”, where the living and the dead live together without interfering with each other. It is a paradise for the living during the day and a paradise for the dead at night.]

[Five days later is the annual “Night Walk of a Hundred Ghosts” event, which is the grandest feast for the undead.]

[This is a high-end copy round with a S level of difficulty. The number of participants is 20, and the total number of points is 10,000.]

[Friendly reminder: This is an explorable copy. Players can keep exploring to trigger tasks and clues. For each completed task, you can get certain bonus points. The total bonus points is 200,000 points, and it is on a first come, first served basis.]

[Friendly reminder: S-grade copies have a high probability of containing hidden tasks and hidden props, so players can enjoy exploring!]

After the system explained this, the darkness in front of Bai Lixin was gradually filled with white light.

He opened his eyes and found himself in a back garden filled with apple trees.

Under his feet was tender green grass. The branches of the apple trees were lush and green, and each apple was large and red, looking very tasty and tempting.

Apart from him, there were 19 other players lying on the ground.

All of them stood up with heavy faces. No matter how fresh the air was and how comfortable the environment was, they knew that a dog that bites does not bark, and a dog that barks does not necessarily want to bite people.

The more peaceful the copy looked, the more unbearable the despair hidden underneath it.

Only players with around 200 levels could enter S-rank copies. As veteran players who have experienced many battlefields, everyone looked extraordinarily sophisticated and alert.

Bai Lixin looked around and suddenly froze for a moment.

He saw a man.

He had blond hair and green eyes, and he was staring straight at him.

Bai Lixin: “……”

He could already confirm that he had entered the wrong copy.

It was not enough to enter the wrong copy, but he also ran into that fraudulent magician.

What was this situation?

Misfortune did not come in singles?

Bai Lixin opened the chat box, and saw a message from Li Cancan.

Since it was sent a few seconds before entering the copy, it was received in.

Li Cancan: [God Xin, I’ve thought about the name of that copy for a long time, and I remembered it. It was called [The Third Symphony of the Undead – Faith of the Undead].]

Bai Lixin: “……”

One is “Night Walk of A Hundred Ghosts”, and the other is “Faith of the Undead”.

Where’s Xia Chi?

Xia Chi came over just then, and he also saw Emil the fraudulent Magician. He came to Bai Lixin and directly shrank behind him.

Then, Bai Lixin’s chat window began to jump wildly.

Xia Chi: [Brother, I was wrong. I seem to have misremembered the name.]

Xia Chi: [Brother, I’m sorry. I’ll apologize with my death.]
