Chapter 2537: Super Props – Inversion Ring
The middle-aged man wanted to say something, but the metal pieces floating around suddenly closed in on him, with some nearly touching his eyeballs!
The emotions that were just surging cooled instantly, and the middle-aged man suppressed his breath, not even daring to blink.
At this moment, the players from District 001 on the scene finally came to their senses; the dungeon mini boss in this Super Dungeon venue is not something the District Government can freely command. Even when Super Players were alive, District 001 players would not necessarily have fared well before it, and the reason it and they are willing to take care of District 001 is entirely due to the relationship with the Super Players.
Big Head Doll was still cursing, first reprimanding the people from District 001 as useless, then starting to scold them for their lack of judgment. Not only did they find a bunch of trash, but they also messed up his home. Considering the dead, he didn’t kick them all out. Now given the chance to leave, do they not understand human speech? If they indeed can’t understand, they might as well die.
Tools with self-awareness, whether Super Props or Special items, or those possessing intelligence equivalent to various human ages do not mean the item is easy to deal with. The Girl in the painting used to be often deceived, which didn’t indicate she lacked fighting ability. Among the aware tools Xu Huo encountered, Mr. Dong is quite representative, although he usually dresses as a Butler, not hesitating to kill, the greatest feature of these tools is that even if they resemble humans, they completely lack human emotions, in some sense, they are merely a disguise.
Thus they have no concept of "love the house and its crow." Though these people from District 001 entered because of the Super Player, a Super Player is a Super Player, and District 001 is District 001. Their connection doesn’t mean the Big Head Doll must care for these people.
"Are you leaving or not?" Big Head Doll furrowed his brow, staring at Qiu Xiangming and his companions.
What could Qiu Xiangming say? No matter how many items they have, they can’t compare to the amount of metal within this city.
Big Head Doll turned around angrily, hands on hips, looking at Xu Huo with a tilted chin, "What do you want?"
"Two more items, please," Xu Huo said, "The relic area is pretty much the Super Dungeon. It’s somewhat dangerous to traverse here. Just spatial artifacts cannot fully guarantee my safety, or maybe you could give me some token to use against other bosses."
"You make a good point," Big Head Doll touched his chin, "but I have lots of enemies; are you going to kill them?"
No wonder the same dungeon needs so many separate spaces. If they meet daily, this dungeon cannot be used.
"Then swap for a different prop," Xu Huo said, "Your control over metal is impressive; do you have similar props?"
Big Head Doll stared at him through the bubble, "Why use props to control metal?"
Xu Huo nodded, "Just give whatever you have."
Big Head Doll reached into his belly and pulled out a bunch of props strung together by a thread. He pointed here and there inside, sometimes reluctant, sometimes shaking his head, clearly quite conflicted.
The Girl in the painting leaned in, pointing to a tiny bubble prop among them, "What’s this?"
"You really don’t know anything; it’s a talking bubble," Big Head Doll said proudly, "Little Head gave it to me; it can store the words I want to say."
"Who is Little Head?" The Girl in the painting’s eyes brightened, looking at the bubble.
Big Head Doll shoveled the bubble into his belly defensively, "Little Head is Little Head; he built this place for me."
It could be inferred that the "Little Head" he mentioned should be the Super Player.
Possibly afraid the Girl in the painting might make outrageous demands, he casually pulled two items from the string and tossed them to Xu Huo, "Here you go, don’t ask for anything else, the rest are my favorites!"
[Aura of Righteousness: Special item, a support item that can double the effects of any attack or Defense Prop. Just use it alongside someone to gain wonderful experiences beyond expectation.]
[Metallic clay: Special item, it allows most metal objects within its effective range to take the shape corresponding to the metallic clay.]
Xu Huo quickly put the two items into his prop bar, and said with a smile, "I do feel bad about messing up your home; I have some special metals here, though not much, but fun to play with."
He took out the "Snowflake Hotel," previously killed players had many things in their luggage compartments, virtually every one of them hoards precious mineral metals, Xu Huo was interested in precious ores, the more valuable ones stored in his luggage box; the other precious metals were originally kept for need later, gifting them to Big Head Doll is a good idea too.
Big Head Doll took no courtesy; lifting his hand, all the metal chunks piled in the hotel room floated out, and he indeed liked some of them. He immediately hugged a few blocks in his arms, "I’ll embed these on my bed for sleep."
"We have these metals too..." a player from District 001 couldn’t help muttering, District 001 can’t possibly lack metal ores?
Big Head Doll heard, "Then why don’t you give them to me! What you said before doesn’t count, merely repairing my house, I won’t do that; you have to turn my entire home into metal!"
Qiu Xiangming gasped and looked back at his companions. Building a metal city with District 001’s assets is certainly trivial, but why would the District Government use so much precious metal to build a small venue within the dungeon? It’s utterly pointless!
Yet he dare not speak, neither refusing nor agreeing.
Big Head Doll, not often interacting with people, believed when he made a request, if others didn’t refuse, it meant agreeing, but the Girl in the painting understood; she patted Big Head Doll’s head, "They don’t want to build you a metal city, so they keep silent to muddle through."
Big Head Doll’s voice suddenly sharpened, "You’re lying to me!"
The floating metals began to recklessly ravage this area, soon submerging Qiu Xiangming and others in a storm of metals.
Seeing them retreat farther, Xu Huo said, "I’ll go get the props," and left.
Entering the last teaching space, Xu Huo replicated the Spatial Body display, then when the black passage reappeared, he deconstructed the Spatial Gate and took the props inside.
A black ring fell into his palm.
[Congratulations to the player Passerby A for obtaining the Super Prop "Inversion Ring."]
[This is a spatial artifact capable of traversing freely within a space. It allows the holder or the object affected by the prop to instantly withdraw from the current space and teleport to a nearby space. Due to its special restrictions, the Inversion Ring’s effect is based on regional space units and cannot specify the teleportation space.]
[Please note: As this prop can only teleport within regional spaces, it is still subject to the restriction of unfinished dungeon tasks.]
