Infinitely Criticizing the Villain for Being Like My Ex-Boyfriend

After listening to what the others said, Zhang Chunliang stood there and pondered for a moment, but did not rush back to Blaspheme God immediately.

He checked the time, called up the system navigation, and came to a cafe located in the busiest area of ​​the Game House rest area.

"Sorry for the wait." He saw the familiar figure at the agreed location.

"It's more than just a long wait..." Li Mufeng leaned back in the coffee chair and rolled his eyes at him, "Your sense of time is too bad. Do you know how long I have been waiting for you here?"

Long before leaving the Doomsday copy, Zhang Chunliang and Li Mufeng agreed to meet in this cafe one month later. In order to prevent the two from encountering accidents in the copy and failing to show up on time, Zhang Chunliang specifically told him that no matter who it was, he only needed to wait for an hour from eight to nine in the morning, and leave if the other party did not show up.

After downloading two copies with different time flow rates in succession, Zhang Chunliang successfully missed the time agreed upon by the two.

"I've been sitting here like a lunatic for nine days in a row, sitting for an hour and then leaving every morning... If you don't come, I'll be forcibly dragged into the punishment dungeon by the system." Li Mufeng's tone was extremely resentful. "You don't know how expensive the coffee here is, and they charge a table fee. In the past few days, I've spent all the points I saved from the entire dungeon."

Li Mufeng was worried that there would be problems in his next copy, so he used his points to borrow time to rest and managed to hold on until now. It was almost the "Death Week" at the end of the month, and he was really worried that he would die in the next copy and not be able to return the things to Zhang Chunliang smoothly.

"Thank you for your hard work. I'll reimburse you for the points you spent. What would you like to drink?" Zhang Chunliang picked up the menu with a smile, but fell silent after seeing the prices clearly.

"A glass of pure water here can buy a D-level item in the system store." Li Mufeng pointed at the menu, "Don't ask me why I know."

However, he did not bother to be polite with Zhang Chunliang and generously ordered three cups of coffee of different flavors.

As for why there are three cups——

He carefully took out a fist-sized flowerpot from his arms and placed it on the table.

There is a strange-looking plant growing in the flowerpot.

It is dark red all over, and the color becomes darker and purpler towards the tip. It looks like a vine and also like an octopus tentacle.

The plant was not motionless; it was slowly wriggling and bending, leaning towards Zhang Chunliang.

"It's incredible." Li Mufeng said with emotion, "He's actually alive..."

Zhang Chunliang dragged the small plant to his side, with a smile in his eyes: "Long time no see, Lao K."

The smaller version of Old K didn't understand anything and just kept trying to get into Zhang Chunliang's palm.

"It seems to be unconscious." Li Mufeng said with emotion, "I told you in the dungeon that Game House will not allow you to bring the NPC out. Look, you spent so many points, and in the end you only got an ornamental prop."

Li Mufeng has been trying to communicate with Lao K during this period, but it never responds, as if it has lost its own consciousness.

Before leaving the Doomsday Copy, Zhang Chunliang suddenly realized that Old K could be taken out of the Copy. Its original form was the train in the game, and it also incorporated the power of Shen Xingyi. It seemed to have been judged by the Game House as some kind of prop.

In order to prevent its active consciousness from being wiped out by Game House when it left the copy, Zhang Chunliang used up all the points he earned in that copy to buy it a protective shield, which is the flowerpot under it.

"It doesn't matter. Its consciousness is not lost." Zhang Chunliang replied, "It just needs time to grow up."

When recycling the giant octopus fragments, part of the power it bestowed on Old K was uncontrollably sucked away, causing Old K's energy to be incomplete, and he turned from a big train into the small succulent in the flowerpot.

However, as long as it is placed together with Shen Xingyi's portrait, it will slowly grow.

The little octopus' claws hooked around each of Zhang Chunliang's fingers, and the little suction cups made popping sounds, which was very intimate.

"Thank you." Zhang Chunliang took out some strangely shaped crystal leaves from his backpack and handed them to Li Mufeng. "This is the item I got from the last dungeon. It can eliminate the pollution brought by the monsters in the dungeon."

Li Mufeng raised his eyebrows slightly and accepted the gift: "You still have some conscience..."

The reason why Zhang Chunliang left Old K with him was because the internal fighting within Blasphemy was too serious. As a target of public criticism, Zhang Chunliang was worried that the little tentacle would be stolen by someone with ulterior motives.

The second reason is that the guild that Li Mufeng belongs to has nutrient solution for upgrading the wisdom item Soul Solidification, and he promised to help Zhang Chunliang take care of Old K until its foundation is stable.

The coffee was brought to the table by the waitress. She smiled sweetly and kindly, and gently reminded Zhang Chunliang to be careful not to burn his mouth. She also thoughtfully prepared two plates of exquisite snacks.

"I hope you can wash away the fatigue in the dungeon here and feel the comfort and warmth of home." She winked at Zhang Chunliang, and left gracefully with a moving fragrance.

"I swear, on my first day here, she didn't serve a new customer like me. Her attitude was terrible..." Li Mufeng said calmly, "She might have a crush on you. Are you going to betray your evil boyfriend?"

He was referring to the giant octopus fragments from the apocalypse.

"Did I spend enough money?" Zhang Chunliang was also a little surprised. "Few girls have expressed their affection to me so frankly..."

Generally speaking, the first person they noticed was Shen Xingyi, who was more dazzling than him in appearance and temperament.

In the game world, due to the difficulty of tasks and monsters, men with stronger physical strength often have a greater chance of survival, which leads to Zhang Chunliang rarely seeing female players...

However, every female player he met seemed to be very strong and of higher quality than the male players in the same dungeon.

"What's the high cost of three cups of coffee? That female player must be a master on the player list, otherwise she wouldn't be able to work here." Li Mufeng's words were full of sourness, "You kid, you can eat gigolo with peace of mind."

Old K's claws stretched into long strips like rubber candy and hit Li Mufeng on the mouth.

Li Mufeng covered his mouth with his hands in disbelief: "Did it understand what I said?!"

"I think it can understand you all the time, but it's just too lazy to pay attention to you." Zhang Chunliang looked at him with pity, "Old K is actually a very gentle little guy. You may have annoyed it a lot."

"That's me making sure it's still alive!" Li Mufeng said angrily, "I'm not that good to my sister. I send her nutrient solution and pull weeds for her every day. Old K, you're a guy who forgets friends for the sake of beauty!"

Old K rolled up a cutely shaped pastry and stuffed it into his mouth.

"It will remember your dedication, good boy." Zhang Chunliang called out Li Mufeng's role in the copy with evil intentions, raised the cup and took a sip of coffee.

The familiar smell made him look startled.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?" Li Mufeng's expression became serious. He was afraid of Zhang Chunliang's sudden serious look, because it meant that they were going to be in trouble.

"It's nothing, it tastes good." Zhang Chunliang put down the cup and let Lao K put his paw in and sip it hard.

"It's been so long since we last met. Let's talk about dungeons. I haven't played a dungeon in a long time." Li Mufeng leaned back in his chair and chatted with him casually. "Did you encounter anything interesting?"

"This time I went to a mermaid copy, and met a lot of interesting friends there." Zhang Chunliang recalled 023 and Vio and couldn't help but curled the corners of his lips.

"Mermaid?!" Li Mufeng's face changed, "You were assigned to the Mermaid dungeon?!"

Zhang Chunliang was somewhat surprised by his sudden outburst and asked, "Is there anything wrong?"

"Of course not!" Li Mufeng looked around with a pale face, and after confirming that there were no players around, he patiently reminded, "Don't tell anyone about this. The mermaid dungeon is cursed."

This is something that everyone in the forum knows. All the players who played mermaid-related dungeons in the early days were killed in various ways.

Because the death rate of players in Game House was very high, no one noticed this at first. It was later when a player wanted to find a guide to clear the Mermaid game, and later compiled a collection of many players' recorded videos, that he discovered that all these people had died in very strange ways.

"Some died normally in the dungeon, some died in the rest area, and some are still missing, but most likely they are gone." Li Mufeng's expression was a little solemn. "In the rest area, except for the arena, players are prohibited from killing each other, otherwise they will be dragged into a very terrifying punishment dungeon. How could there be a madman who would do such a thankless thing? The players must be cursed."

Zhang Chunliang already knew what was going on. It was obvious that Shenlan had crawled out of the dungeon to look for the heart and seek revenge. He coughed lightly and nodded randomly: "I will be careful."

Li Mufeng's expression was still a little ugly. He seldom made friends in the dungeon, and Zhang Chunliang was one of the few.

Ever since his sister Li Muxue sacrificed herself in the copy to save him, his will has been depressed. Zhang Chunliang gave Old K to him for safekeeping in order to divert his attention and stop him from having wild thoughts.

Because such people can easily die in the next copy.

He was also very aware of this, so he hadn't done any dungeons for a long time.

Moreover, he was a little worried that after he came back from the next copy, the friends he had just made would be gone again.

"Otherwise, you should leave Old K with me. At least I can have a souvenir when you're gone." Li Mufeng suggested.

Old K slapped him in the face again, giving him a coffee-flavored slap.

"Did anything happen in the Game House during the time I was away?" Zhang Chunliang asked.

"There are some minor changes, all of which are normal updates." Li Mufeng said, "But the live broadcast system has been very unstable recently, and there are often cross-channel issues, which is very strange."

He concluded: "The House of Games must be going to die."

This is the work of the Holy Father System. No one knows how it did it, but it actually disrupted the entire live broadcast system.

"Oh, by the way." Li Mufeng seemed to remember something and chatted with him enthusiastically, "Recently, a new dungeon mode has appeared. It's very interesting. It's called Faction Confrontation."

Zhang Chunliang raised his eyebrows. This was familiar to him. Wasn't it a faction confrontation in the Mermaid Dungeon? However, his faction had no value in the confrontation. Instead, it became a prop for Alan to issue some difficult tasks...

He really couldn't figure out what kind of pirated books Xiao Ai had read that made her come up with such a vulgar idea as asking him to pick ten different bouquets of flowers every morning, put them in its paws, and say "I love you" to it.

"No, no, no, this confrontation dungeon is different from the previous ones. In the previous camps, all players were forcibly matched together, but now, players can enter the dungeon by forming a team and automatically be assigned to a camp."

"Team competition?" Zhang Chunliang thought, "If that's the case, then if we fail to pass the level, the guild will lose a lot of members."

"The benefits are also considerable." Li Mufeng said, "Depending on the number of people in the team, the points will be doubled, and the additional high-level items will be doubled."

"Game House is a little anxious." Zhang Chunliang murmured.

On the surface, this is just a new game mode, but in reality, Game House is forcing players to die in droves through high rewards, while suppressing game guilds at the same time.

In a large-scale dungeon, at least half of the guild members will die due to mission failure.

This was a not-so-clever conspiracy. Many guild leaders could sense the ill intentions behind it, but they had no choice but to participate.

If they retreat in order to preserve their strength, their hostile forces will have the opportunity to take advantage. Once the hostile guild obtains generous rewards in the game through the faction mode, the reversal of strength between the two sides will be devastating.

Zhang Chunliang could even imagine that the powerful party would most likely use any means to expand and recruit the defeated guild members, and then use their power to continue the camp dungeon and obtain generous rewards.

Rather than being forced to enter the dungeon by other guilds after failure, it is better to enter the dungeon on your own initiative.

Therefore, even if everyone has realized that this new model is a huge pit, they will still jump in with gritted teeth driven by interests and threats.

"Too insidious, too cunning, too vicious - Game House only needs to come up with a new mode to stir up a bloodbath for all players." Li Mufeng sighed. He has already signed up for the guild's next faction mode, and tomorrow is the time for the next dungeon.

Zhang Chunliang's eyes were solemn, he had another guess.

By doing this, Game House is not only suppressing guild players, but also increasing the intensity of invading other world consciousness. During this period of time, no one knows how many worlds have fallen as a result - it seems to be becoming very urgent.

"It's getting late. I have to go back first." Zhang Chunliang put Old K in his pocket and said goodbye to Li Mufeng, "Come back alive."

Li Mufeng was stunned and looked up at him.

Zhang Chunliang had already turned around and went to the bar to pay the bill.

"All your purchases are free of charge." The waiter smiled and handed him a salted fish doll that was only given as a gift for high-value purchases.

"This is a homemade item from our store. It can make you lie down like a salted fish in the dungeon for once. While the item is in effect, no one will notice your presence."

This is a high-level escape prop that can be used regardless of the level of the dungeon. Zhang Chunliang pinched the furry doll and thanked her: "Thank your boss for me."

"It's our honor." The waitress winked at him, "Our boss specifically told us that if you come here and order a cup of coffee, we'll give you a gift."

The reason why this cafe is expensive is actually because of these additional gift props.

Only if players have enough qualifications and spend expensive points can they reach the threshold for item redemption.

But now, it is open to Zhang Chunliang for free.

"Tell your boss that it's time to change the name of the store." Zhang Chunliang handed the salted fish to Li Mufeng who followed over and nodded to the waitress.

The waiter's face was blank for a moment.

"Change the name...? What name should I change it to? Um, this requires the boss's consent..."

Zhang Chunliang pointed to the words "Seeking the Heart" on the door and kindly reminded: "Your boss has found his heart."
