488 The Lucky Five

Han Fei pulled back his hand and then rubbed it against the cart by the door. Huang Yins 1 Luck point was ridiculous enough but now there was a 0 one. To have luck be 0 was very special because a players starting value for luck in the surface world wouldnt be in the negative. The lowest was 0.

The urn vibrated. Lee Zai sensed the presence of misfortune. The others had a hard time keeping the urns lid on. Han Fei took a step back before asking Shen Luo. Where are your friends hiding?

I dont know, we got separated. Misfortune followed this man. They said to meet up at the 7th Floor but I didnt dare to wander around due to the Slayers. So I havent reunited with them.

Are you sure they didnt abandon you on purpose?

No, they are very good people. Shen Luo looked curiously at Han Fei. Brother Youfu, why cant I see your status? What level are you?

My mask is a rare item that can hide my status. Its normal for you to not see it. Han Fei checked Perfect Lifes ranking that morning. The player with the highest level was still Huang Yin. He was level 19 and the second place was level 17. After some thought, Han Fei said, I just reached level 15.

My god! Shen Luo didnt dare to make too much noise but he was very excited, Were saved this time! Shen Luo started to play when the game entered OB but even now he was only level 8.

Dont be too excited, level doesnt mean anything. Han Fei glanced inside the room. The urn was moving on its own. He was worried that it might frighten Shen Luo. Come, bring me to the 7th floor, well meet up with your friends.

Were going like that? Shen Luo was worried. This hotel is very dangerous. The Slayers are everywhere. Its like a horror movie.

Dont worry. For someone as lucky as you, youd be the main character in horror movies. Han Fei could read the mans status after he touched the man. Other than the 0 Luck, Shen Luos intelligence was very high. Its starting value was 7 and he added all the attribute points from leveling up into it so his intelligence was now 15. However, Han Fei noticed through his observation that player attributes in the surface world and the cryptic world appeared to be different. At least Shen Luo didnt look like a player with 15 points in Intelligence.

However, it was worth nothing that Shen Luo had a level C Hidden TalentRescue during Desperation. Only players with 0 luck had a chance of obtaining this hidden talent. The effect was simple. When the player was in an absolute death situation, there would still be a chance for rescue. For the casual players in the surface world, this talent was absolutely useless but a light flashed across Han Feis eyes. Without any talent related to the supernatural, and he has gotten here based on pure bad luck. That is amazing.

After Shen Luo knew Han Fei was level 15, he was filled with confidence. He turned to lead the way. A clink came out of Room 404 as the urn fell to the ground. Lee Zai was crawling out but was slapped back into the urn by Xu Qin.

Brother, brother Youfu, did you hear that? Shen Luos voice shook.

Dont be afraid. Let me make some introduction. Han Fei held Xu Qins wrist. This is my family, her name is Xu Qin. We came to do some missions tonight.

Another big boss? Shen Luo greeted Xu Qin. Just looking at Xu Qin, Shen Luo knew she was a powerful character. The beautiful face, the incomparable presence, the red-colored contact, and the penetrating chilling presence Shen Luo felt something was wrong but he couldnt pinpoint it. In the end, Shen Luo chose to trust Han Fei because he had no other choice. Shen Luo was very cautious as he led the road ahead. Han Fei and Xu Qin walked behind like they were on holiday.

Shen Luo, what is your life goal in the game? What kind of profession will you choose? Han Fei asked casually.

Im in finance in real life. The pressure is very high so I want to change a career in this game. I plan to become a landscaper. Shen Luo answered.

Theres a company who dares to take you in? I mean, you must be lucky to have found a workplace. Han Fei tried to make his words sound less offensive.

Of course, my bonus is always the highest at work.

Wow, do you have any money-earning secret?

There is no shortcut to earning money. Shen Luo became more professional when he talked about his job. Every day, I have to spend a lot of time doing market research. I attend meetings at big companies and interact with financial analysts. When I have all the info, I would come up with my report.

And thats how youll earn money?

Then our companys other investment manager and foundation manager would come over and look through my analysis. They will avoid my choices and invest in the opposite choices. Then they will give me bonuses. Shen Luo said with a smile. I once thought about changing company but my boss and colleagues refused to let me go. They said I am the companys lucky charm even though I have been losing the company money.

Your company sounds kind to its employees.

But things are not going so well now. The boss has just been arrested. I have no idea when hell be able to come out. I was worried when he was brought to court. I went to see him. His lawyer was a horrible one and my boss was given an extra 5 years of imprisonment. Shen Luo shook his head. My boss treated me very well. After leaving this map, I plan to use my own money to hire a lawyer for him, hoping to lighten his sentence.

Are you planning to get him executed? Han Fei didnt dare to stand too close to Shen Luo. He moved closer to Xu Qin. The trio reached the 7th floor. Shen Luo looked at the room number and stopped before Room 709. Brother Iron, Ah Tang, are you there? He knocked on the door but there was no answer. Shen Luo looked embarrassed.

Are you sure you havent been abandoned?

I dont think so. He pressed on the doorbell. About another 10 seconds, footsteps came from Room 710. Then the door of Room 710 opened a gap. Xiao Shen, come over here! It sounded like a middle-aged lady talking.

Shen Luo turned to Room 710. But after Shen Luo got in, the door closed in Han Feis face. Then a thick male voice demanded, Who are the people behind you? You did bring the ghosts to us! I knew we should have separated or youd bring us all down!

But hes a player too!

Youll be able to see the level and status of a player! You have to know how cunning these ghosts are!

He has an item that can hide his level. The brother is level 15 already! Shen Luo was agitated. It was not easy for him to find Han Fei.

What nonsense! Do you know what level 15 means? In our tactical group of 5000 people, our highest level player is only level 15! The man sighed. The nature of Perfect Life is not a casual game. That is only used to fool normal players like you. The main purpose of the game is to explore human nature. Ive been a part of the CB. How dark human nature is equated to how dangerous this game is!

Shen Luo was stumped but he tried to say, Why dont you ask him yourself then? See if hes really a player or a ghost? The room was silent before the man said, Fine, Ill trust you this once.

The door slowly opened and a very large and muscular man appeared at the door. The man was alert looking at Han Fei in the mask. He grabbed a chair from his room and used his body to block the door. Ill ask you a question. If you can answer it, Ill believe youre a player.

The chill wind blew in the corridor. Cold sweat slid down the mans forehead. The atmosphere was tense. Listen carefully. The man lifted one finger. You only have 1 chance. The clock ticked. The man asked, Who is the current president of America?

Biden.

Hearing that, the man sighed in relief. Okay, he is a player. This was common knowledge so Han Fei was quite confused why the man would ask that. Then he realized that the ghosts in the cryptic world wouldnt have cared about the politics and current events in real life so this was a good strategy to tell if the person was a local or a player.

The man opened the door with some embarrassment. Weve really run into a top player. It was my fault earlier. Boss, I hope you dont mind it.

Caution is good. After all, were in a hellish difficulty hidden map. Han Fei led Xu Qin into the room. When the man heard the word hidden map, his eyes glowed. Han Fei looked at the players in the room and shook their hands.

5 players entered the cryptic world this time. The player with the highest level was the muscle man, his ID was Ironman. He was level 12 and focused on stamina. His profession is a fighter. He was part of the CB and he was a professional gamer. His luck was 2 and he had a Level D talent called, Doesnt Believe in the Supernatural. With this talent, he would be targeted by the supernatural.

The second-highest level player was a student called Yan Tang. He was level 10, his starting intelligence was 9 and Luck was 2. He hadnt acquired a profession. He had a strange Grade B Talent, called Daydream. The more he worried about something, the more likely it would occur. This was a very strange talent. Other than Han Fei, this was the highest grade talent Han Fei had seen on a player.

The third-highest level player was a tik toker called Seaglass Cat, she was about to reach level 10 soon. Her luck was 1. She normally liked to sing and dance and she would release videos of her dancing and singing at various maps in Perfect Life. Other than the luck, Seaglass Cats other attributes were normal. Han Fei had seen her talent before, sleepwalking.

The last player surprised Han Fei. She was an auntie over 60. Her Id was Auntie Lee. Her son was the manager of a big company. Since he had no time to accompany her, he bought her Perfect Life to play. But this son probably didnt expect that Auntie Lee would be sent into the cryptic world when she was only level 3. The auntie didnt know anything about gaming. She was the one who left behind the trail of garbage on the staircase. However, among this group, Auntie Lee had the highest luck at 3 points. Her talent was Mourn. The stronger her desire to meet someone, the more likely she would meet them, this was a very rare Grade C Talent.

Looking at the room of lucky players, Han Fei didnt know what to say. They were unlucky because they were dragged from the surface world into the cryptic world where they could die at any moment. They were lucky because they managed to run from Ziggurat to the hospital without dying.

5 negatives make a positive? Han Fei calculated the time. He planned to lead the 5 players back into the mist and then returned to finish his mission. Come with me, Ill bring you to somewhere safe. The players wouldnt expect that the safe place Han Fei meant was the place they just escaped from.

Boss, can I add you as a friend? Ironman walked to Han Fei. He wanted to find out more about hidden maps. Based on my knowledge, there are many deleted maps in Perfect Life. These maps contain the things mentioned by the Immortal Pharma CEO in his will.

On the day before the games OB, Deep Space Tech and Immortal Pharma CEOs will. All the players were willing to trade the thing in the will for the company share.

Well talk about that when were safe. Han Fei felt a chill from his ring. He knew something was rapidly approaching. Shush. When I give you the signal, you need to run downstairs as fast as possible.
