There's Something Wrong With This Account

Chapter 114: [I Like It] (Supplement for yesterday’s update)

Translator: 549690339

Lu Xun looked at the prompt in front of him, the corner of his mouth twitching wildly. He started spewing out a bunch of expletives that the natives of Heavenly Dust Continent certainly wouldn’t understand, complete with foreign variations, and plenty of dialects thrown in for good measure.

Foreign languages are difficult, local dialects are no easier, but expletives everybody learns those real quick…

As the famous character “Explosive Temper Great Cane Hero” from the game “Heavenly Dust”, Lu Xun had two things he was known for: his special ability “Eat My Stick!” , and his “Five Blasts in One Second”.

He would often make it onto the top ten list of raging players in “Heavenly Dust”.

Of course, after crossing over he gained an idol’s burden, so he became this excellent male model with a perpetual warm smile, rarely acting out his eloquent, fragrant diatribes.

“Starting off with 50,000 experience points, do you know what that means?”

“This means in the long run, the experience points needed to level up will be astronomical!”

“A cultivation method covering all Five Elements indeed needs five times the experience points of an ordinary yellow level method!”

Though all of this is quite exaggerated, Lu Xun didn’t fret about his future level-up path.

After all, he was somewhat of a prophet and knew many ways to exploit hidden missions to get a ton of experience points.

Especially after the game went public, as long as he could reasonably use the players, turning them all into laborers, it wouldn’t be just him grinding away countless players would provide for him while unaware!

A trivial example would be the daily tasks of the Demon Sect.

As a young elder of the Demon Sect, who would dare utter a word if he wanted to take charge of this?

At that time, he could accept all the daily tasks first, then via his NPC template, assign these tasks to the players of the Demon Sect to complete.

As an NPC, he seemingly had little restrictions when it came to accepting missions. The only constraint was the limited amount of tasks he could assign to players daily which couldn’t be infinitely issued.

But all these could increase with the rise of his level!

Is it difficult to accumulate some experience points through such means?

This…this is the legendary unscrupulous middleman maneuver, making a killing on the spreads!

Of course, while this is one method of exploiting players for experience points, Lu Xun has a dozen more ideas, numerous possibilities waiting to be tried after the trial period of the game.

“As long as one is ruthless enough, experience points will always follow.” That’s Lu Xun’s core belief.

Therefore, be it five times, ten times, or even fifteen times, as long as this Nameless Method is powerful enough, Lu Xun is willing to learn it.

The problem, however, is not the future but the present. Where was he going to find such a large induction of experience?

If he wasn’t able to collect enough experience, how could he conclude his training? How could he leave?

“I have a feeling the master isn’t asking me to train, he’s trying to imprison me…” Lu Xun bitterly complained in his mind.

At that moment, he inexplicably thought of his senior brother Yan Li, who was also stuck in closed-door training.

“My senior brother has been in training for years now, never stepping out for air. It’s like he was given life imprisonment…”

A real headache!

He still had about 11,000 experience points left. According to the mission demand, to reach level eleven alone, he would need nearly forty thousand more points. Not to mention starting tomorrow, he’ll start learning the sword array from his third senior brother, which is also a clear, high-cost experience task… “Sucks!” Lu Xun ruffled his black hair, which surprisingly didn’t fall out.

Perhaps this was the power of charisma at 10. Despite the high pressures of life, he wouldn’t face early middle-age crises of hair loss or receding hairlines.

“Forget it, I’ll try to practice once first and see how many points I get from this normal practice session,” he thought.

The “Qi Consumption Technique” as a basic method, and with Lu Xun’s enlightenment at 1, a training cycle rewarded 20 experience points.

After level 10, the amount of experience earned by practicing techniques increases.

Under normal circumstances, enlightenment at 1 would be 50 points, and enlightenment at 10 would be 500 points.

This Nameless Technique clearly was special, so Lu Xun decided to try practicing it once. He was free after all, might as well get a sense of what it feels like.

He sat cross-legged and began to circulate the method inside his body. At first, everything was normal, but eventually, he began to feel pain. And this pain would worsen as the practice progressed!

Comparatively, if the “Qi Consumption Technique” pain was level 1, then this Nameless Technique pain level was 5.

Wow, what’s with the sudden fascination?

But this sudden quintupled sensation of pain was something Lu Xun wasn’t accustomed to yet. He could enjoy the practice process of “Qi Consumption Technique”, but practicing the Nameless Technique was a bit torturous.

But he was confident that he could turn this pain into pleasure!

This technique is more painful than “Qi Consumption Technique”, should it be called “Dysmenorrheal’?

After completing one cycle, Lu Xun felt refreshed.

Although the process was torturous, the result was exhilarating. It felt nice, in a celestial way.

Particularly the spiritual comfort, it was as if he just had a soul massage – it was beyond words.

“Could this be…the legendary brain orgasm?” Lu Xun mused.

After the practice session ended, Lu Xun exhaled a long breath and then checked the growth of his experience points.

Gained fifty points, hehe.

At this rate, if we lock him up here, starting from zero, it will only take 1,000 days to accumulate 50,000 experience points, hahaha-burp!

This is pretty much the same as serving nearly three years of a fixed-term imprisonment, isn’t it?

And he’s freaking responsible for cooking for a big family everyday! Diamond

Geezer!

“No, I have to find a way to get more experience points.”

“It’s best if I could get my third brother to convey a message tomorrow and ask him to tell the master that I don’t want to isolate myself anymore. I want to follow him closely and become his most well-behaved, sensible, and dashing disciple.”

Lu Xun originally thought that he could directly level up and leave the isolation in a short time as soon as he gained some more experience, surprising the master…

Now it seems, that is quite unlikely.

“In more than two years, all the players will be public beta!” Lu Xun began to grow anxious.

At the same time, he was deeply curious.

The master said that someone had practiced this method before, and cultivated it to a very advanced level, becoming very strong.

Who was this person, how much time did he spend, how did he do it, and just how strong was he?

Moreover, the master also said that there was a big advantage to this method, which was that if the cultivation bases were the same, the reservoir and strength of the internal spiritual power would be much stronger.

But just how much stronger is this so-called much stronger?

“The experience needed for leveling up is five times that of the Yellow Level Method. If the growth of spiritual power is also five times, then over time…sigh!” Lu Xun gasped.

At the same time, he glanced down at the sword sheath in his hand.

Don’t forget, the sword sheath has two special techniques – one of them is Gather Qi. He can store his sword qi in the sword sheath, accumulating it for later use.

The higher the reservoir of spiritual power, the more Sword Qi he can put into the sword sheath each day, and the more Sword Qi he can release at once!

Ah! Apart from the fact that this method requires a lot of experience points, it feels like it’s custom-made for me!” A thought like this rose in Lu Xun’s heart.

Could it be… the master premeditated all these?

“Yes, yes, it’s very likely the master’s painstaking efforts towards me.”

“Maybe this is the highest level of teaching according to aptitude!”

In a short time, after some self-introspection, Lu Xun forgot his sorrow and was filled with energy.

After all, there’s no such thing as absolute happiness in the world. Only those who can take things as they come can be relatively happier.

The next day, early in the morning, Lin Chan arrived outside the cave, carrying a small bamboo basket.

Seemingly afraid of disturbing her master’s cultivation, she stood outside the cave, not daring to go in.

When Lu Xun noticed her, he quickly called her in.

Last night. he tried to leave but failed. It seemed that before he left. his third brother, obeying the master’s instruction, had set up a formation at the cave entrance, making it impossible for Lu Xun to leave.

What was even more strange was that others could come and go freely in the cave, but not him!

He felt as if he were sealed inside. He couldn’t understand the principle behind it.

Lin Chan walked briskly into the cave, head down, carrying her little basket, and then took out the hot porridge she had prepared for Lu Xun.

“You got up pretty early, huh?” Lu Xun looked at her and ruffled her little head.

Making porridge takes time, and it would take a while for Lin Chan to walk down from the top of the mountain, so she must have gotten up very early.

Besides the pot of hot porridge, there were also two sets of bowls and chopsticks in the little basket. She was prepared to have meals with her master. Perhaps, since her master was secluded here, she intended to have all her meals here in the future.

She still remembered the first night she cooked porridge for her master. He had told her, “Fill a bowl for yourself, too. I don’t like to dine alone.”

She had taken this to heart.

Lu Xun back then merely said it casually, intending for her to eat some too, but she held it dear – Master doesn’t like to dine alone.

That’s the way this little mute is – she will remember every word that her master says.

Lin Chan took the two sets of tableware out of her little basket, placed them on the smooth stone, and then sat down quietly, looking down.

Deep winter has arrived, and the weather is very cold, but there is a small warmth inside the cave.

Little Mute is clear about something…

— I like being able to dine with the master every day.
