Strange rules: starting with a white-haired beauty

Time continued to slip through the fingers, and the days quickly came to four days later, and Lan Zhirou's debt had been settled.

Nothing strange happened during this period, and no players were eliminated in the dungeon, as if this dungeon was really gentle.

This would really be the case if the Sakura Country players hadn't seduced that giant angler fish...

Although there was no major danger, the players, who were originally very calm, had been on tenterhooks for the past few days after receiving the reminder, fearing that the anglerfish would swallow them together.

Lan Zhirou set up the camera she had prepared before and used it to observe the sea surface at night.

After carefully comparing the videos of several days, Lan Zhirou came to the conclusion that fog does not occur on the sea every night, and the time of fog is not completely fixed. It may be foggy at eleven o'clock, or it may be in the middle of the night. The fog didn't start until two o'clock, but once the fog started, it would be troublesome to return.

Moreover, these fogs do not seem to be naturally formed, because they are too evenly distributed. It is difficult for naturally formed fogs to be distributed like this. Lan Zhirou even asked Bai Jin to do an experiment one night, without human intervention. , the humidity level in every area of ​​this heavy fog was exactly the same, which further verified her idea.

Originally, Lan Zhirou thought that today might be an ordinary day in the Ghost Story dungeon, but the situation changed slightly. At another pier on Risheng Island, the door that was originally tightly locked by a hinge lock opened. , a man with scars all over his face was working in a field enclosed by a wire fence. His figure looked like he could kill a Cthulhu with a hammer.

What the mayor promised at the time has indeed come true. The ship repair yard at Minghu Port has now been rebuilt, and the waterway leading to the ship repair yard has been completely cleared. Now she can sail the ship to Minghu Port.

However, this change does not seem to have occurred for every player. Only the Minghu Port has been rebuilt in the world of those players who have liquidated their fishing boat debts, while the remaining players still have hinges on their wire gates, with the signs on them It says "Waiting for opening", and the waterway leading to the Minghu Port Ship Repair Yard is full of rocks and the like.

It seems that Minghu Port was reopened because of the "work" of the players, but no one understands. Aren't they just fishing?

Lan Zhirou took Charlotte's hand and walked into the repair shop surrounded by wire fences. The owner of this repair shop in Minghu Port - the ship repairman just glanced at Lan Zhirou with his peripheral vision and continued to work. His business showed no intention of standing up to welcome guests.

"Hello?" Charlotte tried to say hello.

"You must be the person in need of "help" that the mayor said." The ship repairman still buried his head and said calmly, "Yes, I can indeed help you. To be precise, I will help you with the broken ship. To other islands, but there is no free lunch in the world, you need to pay something as a reward for me."

"what do you want?"

The boat repairman seemed to be a little dissatisfied with Charlotte's "childishness". He snorted coldly and said: "Money, you can use money to settle things in this world anytime. If you don't have money, I will also accept fish here." Come and pay, but it must be fresh fish, and the value of the fish can only be determined by me. Unless you can find some special fish, then I can listen to your quotation."

"Of course, if you find better "parts" elsewhere, I will be happy to help you install these parts. In this case, you only need to pay a small amount of money compared to buying them from me. It's a good deal, right? .”

I don't know why, but when the repairman mentioned the word "parts", his voice seemed a little stiff, but it didn't sound like he was doing it deliberately. There was an indescribable weird feeling.

"In addition to rebuilding your ship, the biggest fear of that broken ship when going out to sea is that it will hit a reef. It may be able to barely sail once, but if it is not repaired in time, you will be buried in the belly of the fish sooner or later. Of course, I can do this too. , at least I can do it in most cases... But if you want to repair the ship, you must weigh the time yourself. This is not something that can be done in two or three minutes." The repairman looked at the two people with emotionless eyes. Pointing to the many ships parked at Minghu Port, "Did you see that? Those ships are all waiting for me to repair them."

After a while, he pointed to a table in a tin room and said: "There are things in there that can be used to transform your ships. If you like anything, tell me... Of course, you have to pay. I don't accept it here. On credit.”

Charlotte and Lan Zhirou approached the table in the iron room, but after just one glance, Charlotte almost vomited. After suppressing the desire to retching, she barely asked aloud: "Are you sure, these Are the things used to modify ships?”

"Why, these are high-quality steel materials, which are rare to see on Risheng Island. You are not satisfied with this?" The ship repairer was still immersed in his "business", but there was obvious dissatisfaction in his tone.

However, these words made Lan Zhirou and Charlotte's eyelids jump unconsciously again, because in the eyes of them and Bai Jin, these so-called parts, except for the lights, were not steel at all, but The clumps are squirming, as if they have flesh and blood with their own consciousness, and some flesh and blood are even "sticking" intimately at the moment. These things seem to really have life.

One of the dark red flesh and blood suddenly shook violently after Lan Zhirou came closer, and then a piece of paper full of "ketchup" slipped out from under the flesh and fell to the floor in front of Lan Zhirou. , the mass of flesh and blood also returned to calm, and was "quieter" than other masses of flesh and blood.

She bent down and picked up the piece of paper and found that it was a brand new set of rules. The content of the rules seemed to be related to the repair shop.

[Curiosity will always kill the cat. Isn’t it a good choice to spend an ordinary and lonely life on Sunrise Island? What...isn't it to you? Okay, okay... I've known this for a long time. It's impossible to cross this ocean without being "assimilated", but maybe, I'm just saying maybe, you can use this power of "assimilation", To make yourself stronger, if you really want to escape from here, this is the path you have to choose...]

[Rule 1: If you want to cross the ocean, you must accept "assimilation", otherwise you would be better off staying on Sunrise Island until you die of old age. 】
