Chapter 29

nSmall Gift

nXie Xi sent a message with no expression. God X is so amazing! He followed with a small smiley face.

nHe was amazing yet points were deducted? Jiang Xie silently endured the red rain.

nHe naturally knew why the other person’s good feelings would fall straight down. The words ‘can’t remember’ seemed too perfunctory but in fact, it was because of the Quasi-World Protection Law that he couldn’t remember. The ones on the list were due to some new achievements in his design. The Zone gave a full-screen announcement and it was noted by many people. There were also many that weren’t announced, so he didn’t know the specific number.

nHe didn’t want to lie to Xie Xi and the result was the -1 flying all around him.

nJiang Xie wanted to say something to stop the red rain when Xie Xi asked the fatal question, How many of your worlds have been cleared?

nJiang Xie, “…”

nHe didn’t reply for a long time. Xie Xi thought he had something to do and was preparing to cut off the communication interface when X replied: So far, only one has been cleared.

nXie Xi, “!”

nIt is the one you cleared.

nXie Xi, “!!”

nJiang Xie: We are fated to meet each other.

nWho wanted to have a fated relationship with him?

nJiang Xie looked at the waterfall of -1 and didn’t dare speak. If he let Xie Xi knew that it was his soul interfering with the normal search system, would it fall directly to -999?

nThe probability was as high as 99.9%.

nPoor Xie Xi had to continue to test his survival. The S-grade world was really difficult. Are all of God X’s games like this?

nJiang Xie knew the answer he desired but he couldn’t lie. He could only endure the decline in goodwill and say: The novice trial is relatively simple.

nBang, -10!

nJiang Xie, “…” It hurt.

nXie Xi smiled. Then it is harder than other games? He wanted to change the word ‘hard’ to ‘perverted.’

nJiang Xie was tactful. Not necessarily. After all, you are growing very quickly. The translation was that the game difficulty was there but Xie Xi was more experienced and proficient, which would make things easier.

nXie Xi didn’t want this type of experience and proficiency!

nUnfortunately, his next task was destined to be X’s world. He could only endure and say: What a coincidence. My next task is in God X’s world.

nJiang Xie had long guessed this. We have a fated relationship. It was a crazy suggestion.

nYou big headed ghost! Xie Xi refused to accept this and his good feelings fell below -200!

nThe world’s name is Lost Atlantis. God X, do you have any impression of this?

nJiang Xie had no impression of it at all. He explained: I signed the Quasi-World Protection Law and have forgotten most of the worlds I designed.

nXIe Xi was shocked. Quasi-World Protection Law?

nJiang Xie: Anyone who designs a quasi-world higher than the B-grade has to sign it.

nFairytale Town’s rating was too low and it wasn’t qualified.

nXie Xi was silent before asking: Then this Lost Atlantis is at least B-grade?

nJiang Xie was also silent. Then he uttered the big truth: I haven’t designed a quasi-world below A.

nXie Xi, “……”

nJiang Xie watched the goodwill reach 222 and quickly added: You can rest assured that the difficult is overstated. It won’t be as hard as you think.

nXie Xi calmed down. In fact, the overall difficulty of Love to the Left or Right wasn’t high. The unlimited file loads plus the pain immunity to fatal injuries meant there was basically a 100% chance of clearing it.

nThen why would it be rated S-grade? Could these things also be diluted?

nJiang Xie continued: One of the criteria for the quasi-world rating is the possibility of it being cleared. The higher the level, the lower the probability.

nXie Xi wasn’t comforted. Are the worlds you designed that difficult to clear?

nJiang Xie wanted to say that the threshold was the problem. He put his soul inside the worlds so that other people couldn’t search the world, let alone clear it. The fact that Xie Xi could always search it was because one, the fit between their souls was good and two, it was fate. It could also be said that Xie Xi’s luck was good. After all, Old Jiang’s worlds truly had a high rating.

nJiang Xie gave a half truth. The quasi-worlds I designed contain my souls. If you get their approval then clearing the task is a lot easier. If you don’t get it, the difficulty will greatly enhance.

nXie Xi couldn’t understand this and he asked curiously: Your soul?

nThe red rain stopped at this point. Jiang Xie looked at the -233 goodwill and asked: Do you want to meet to chat?

nXie Xi, “…” If they met then he couldn’t smile!

nNo need. I will feel sorry if I trouble God X.

nThe red rain began again. Jiang Xie didn’t dare mention this matter anymore. He hurried to stop the bleeding. This is design related. You will understand more later. Just know that the soul is a wisp of my consciousness.

nXie Xi’s eyes narrowed. Your consciousness?

nJiang Xie had a hunch this sentence would decrease the goodwill but still said it. For example, the vampire Aix-en, the housekeeper Randy and Gars…

nXie Xi, “…”

nJiang Xie glanced at the goodwill and relaxed when there wasn’t a cliff-style dip in goodwill. They are all my soul.

nOh, Xie Xi was even more certain. Sure enough, this person was truly abnormal!

nJiang Xie tried to defend himself. They are just wisps of my consciousness and aren’t independent individuals. It is inevitably that there will be some extreme ideas in their minds. Combined with the task constraints, they might do something radical.

nOh, Aix-en shot him three times, Randy beheaded him twice and Gars stabbed him to death. It was really ‘somewhat’ extreme.

nXie Xi couldn’t hide his ‘killing intent’ across the water curtain. It turns out to be like this.

nOld Jiang struggled to survive. In fact, they all appreciate you.

nForget it, he couldn’t afford their appreciation!

nXie Xi calmed down and took the opportunity to ask about some doubts. Do you know… what will happen after a quasi-world is cleared?

nJiang Xie knew what he was curious about and questioned: What is your understanding of quasi-world?

nXie Xi was startled and answered: Quasi… does it mean ‘to be prepared.’

nYes, it is preparing to become a new world?

nXie Xi was shocked and the hand touching the water curtain trembled. Then after clearing a world, the quasi-world will become a new world?

nJiang Xie explained to him: There are three types of professions for players: a collector, explorer and recorder. The tasks of these three professions are to test the world. Once the instance is cleared, the quasi-world will be qualified.

nXie Xi couldn’t help saying: Designers create the world. After it is recognized by the Zone, tasks are released. Then players will clear the world and clearing it will make it a new world?

nThe details aren’t so simple but you can temporarily understand it like this.

nThis is the case… then Aaron and Xiao Feng are left in a real world. He breathed a sigh of relief.

nJiang Xie only appeared ‘Fairytale Town’ and wasn’t sure of the specifics. Besides, he was only a puppet when he showed his face. Thus, he asked: Aaron and Xiao Feng?

nXie Xi had many doubts about the Fairytale Town. He might think X was abnormal but X clearly knew a lot. The gap between the two of them was too big and there was no conflict of interest. A chat didn’t mean anything.

nTherefore, Xie Xi talked about everything he encountered in Fairytale Town.

nFinally, he asked: Is it really possible to raise the level of the quasi-world by killing the players?

nJiang Xie: It has nothing to do with that.

nStill, Fairytale Town did rise from E to D.

nJiang Xie explained to him: It is because the golden dragon entered the quasi-world.

nXie Xi was stunned.

nThe golden dragon killed the first group of players and was determined to guard the town, causing the town’s rating to rise.

nXie Xi wondered: Is it possible for the quasi-world’s rating to rise as long as the player is willing to stay in the quasi-world? It was impossible. There were too many players who stayed in a quasi-world forever because they couldn’t complete the task or…

nJiang Xie replied: The golden dragon is the designer.

nXie Xi was even more confused. They designed it together…

nThis can’t be done together. JIang Xie didn’t hide anything. The so-called organization co-designed the quasi-world but in fact, only one person on the team was inspired and designed the quasi-world. However, it was mistaken for a team credit.

nXie Xi was startled.

nJiang Xie continued: As long as it doesn’t reach the A-grade, the dragon entering the quasi-world is still considered as continuing to design it. Thus, the town’s rating continued to improve.

nXie Xi understood some things while becoming more confused about other things.

nJiang Xie kept speaking: A quasi-world below the A-grade is fragmentary. For example, the Fairytale Town you entered is just the small town. There is nothing outside the town.

nXie Xi’s eyes narrowed and he anxiously asked: Then is it still a real world?

nOf course. Once it is cleared, this fragment becomes qualified and will blend with other fragments into a boundless world.

nXie Xi’s eyes widened. What about worlds above A-grade?

nThey are frame types and will grow independently.

nThis was the first time Xie Xi really felt that X was amazing.

nAll the worlds you designed are independent worlds?

nYes.

nGreat!

nXie Xi didn’t say it but Jiang Xie saw a touch of green among the red. The pitiful 5 didn’t comfort Jiang Xie.

nHe said so much only for goodwill to rise by five points. Would it rise if he kept repeating himself?

nJiang Xie told himself: It is wishful thinking.

nIn fact, Xie Xi still had a lot of doubts but there was too much information. He needed some time to digest it.

nHe was currently a beginner collector and at most, he was a bug tester. He was still a long way from thinking about designing a world.

nXie Xi thought about it and asked Jiang Xie: God X, do you think a designer is God?

nNo. Jiang Xie didn’t hesitate. A designer is more like the hand of God.

nXie Xi’s heart tightened. The Zone…

nThe Zone isn’t God either. Jiang Xie reassured him. Take your time. Everyone has different answers to this question.

nXie Xi nodded before realizing the other person couldn’t see it. Thank you.

nThis time there wasn’t a smiley face but JIang Xie saw the 1 and felt very comfortable.

nThe road was long but would eventually lead to him.

nXie Xi was very curious about designers, the Zone and the Central World that constantly formed new worlds…

nIf he wanted to solve it, he had to go up step by step.

nXie Xi took a deep breath and opened the Quasi-world column.

nLost Atlantis. He didn’t believe this game could be worse than Love to the Left or Right!

nHe was about to accept the task when the communicator flashed again.

nX: I gave you a small gift.

nXie Xi, “?”

nThey were friends so all items mailed were automatically accepted. XIe Xi opened the items bar and saw a red and blue egg.

nXie Xi couldn’t help thinking of someone’s eyes.

nXie Xi asked him: Thank you God X. What it is? A ^_^ was attached.

nJiang Xie saw this smiling face and couldn’t help glancing at the goodwill. Fortunately, it hadn’t fallen.

nIt is an elf who can enter worlds with you.

nXie Xi saw the item description.

nName: Elf Egg.

nUsage: Can hatch a lovely elf.

nDetails: Gold grade. Hurry to sell it. Exchanging it for money is more cost-effective than raising this thing!

nXie Xi, “…” It didn’t sound like a good thing but the gold grade seemed high?

nJiang Xie sent him another message. The elf has a passive skill that allows you to resist three fatal injuries.

nXie Xi heard this and thought it was useful. Thank you!

nJiang Xie stared at the goodwill 1.

nYes, he just needed to give more than 200 legendary elf eggs and it would become a positive number.

nThe problem was… could he find a second golden elf egg in the entire Central World? It was almost nonexistent.

nXie Xi clicked on the elf egg and the hatching countdown appeared on the red and blue egg.

nHe found it didn’t take up a slot on the item bar and was more satisfied.

nAfter tidying up his backpack, Xie Xi clocked on Lost Atlantis.

nAs before, the words game loading appeared in front of him, followed by the information board.

nWelcome to the quasi-world. Please read the information board carefully.
