“New Email: Newbie Gift Pack Received.”
Zhao Ping'an immediately rubbed his hands together, ready to open the pack!
He opened the email, and inside was a dazzling golden gift pack. Zhao Ping'an claimed the gift pack and found it in his system inventory on his phone.
“Name: Newbie Gift Pack.”
“Rarity: Only one per player.”
“Item Description: The Newbie Gift Pack may contain various items. I wish you bad luck!”
“Wahahaha, if you open a rope, just end your life directly. Trust me, it’s an easier way to die~”
Look, this description absolutely came from the same source as the system.
Looking at the gift pack, Zhao Ping'an said, “If I draw something out, it won’t still be inside the phone, will it?”
“Dear, you can take it out~”
“What happens if the phone is destroyed?” Zhao Ping'an asked.
His system was different from everyone else’s!
And now it was even putting on a customer service tone!
“The phone won’t be destroyed, dear, because it’s the carrier of the system~ And it will absolutely never leave the player’s side by more than two meters.”
Zhao Ping'an’s eyes darted, and his mind followed, saying, “’Won’t be destroyed’ isn’t quite accurate, is it? It should be ‘indestructible’?”
“You could say that too~”
Zhao Ping'an was delighted. Wasn't this just an upgraded Nokia?!
This was a divine artifact! With a divine artifact in hand, the world was his!
Zhao Ping'an suddenly felt no unease. What was there to fear?
If a Gui came, he'd give it a Nokia smash!
If two Gui came, he'd smash their brains until they were evenly mixed!
Zhao Ping'an felt his aura had never been so powerful!
He mentally retrieved the Newbie Gift Pack. The dazzling golden gift box landed in his hand. Zhao Ping'an shouted:
“I am willing to exchange ten years of my life for a golden light!!!”
Zhao Ping'an tore open the gift pack. The gift pack disappeared, and what landed in his hand was a pair of glasses.
Gold-rimmed round glasses. Wouldn't wearing these make him look a bit feminine?
Zhao Ping'an was both disappointed and relieved. Disappointed that it was just a broken pair of glasses, and relieved that his ten years of life were still intact.
“I knew it, ah—?”
Zhao Ping'an’s eyes widened. He stared in disbelief at the information about the glasses in his hand.
“Name: Mind-Reading Glasses.”
“Category: Wearable Equipment.”
“Rarity: Only one pair.”
“Function: Peer into the mind of any sentient being.”
“Description: Is peering into the human heart a blessing or a curse? This is a forbidden item. This pair of glasses is said to have been created from the blood of a deity. Wear them, and you will see all the ugliness of this world. Some have obtained these glasses before, and without exception, they chose to end their own lives. It’s better for those with poor psychological resilience to destroy them~”
An excited Zhao Ping'an: “Damn it, ten years of life are gone. Good, the golden light came out! It’s gold!!! I got gold!!!”
An European Emperor simply doesn’t understand an African Chief!
Someone who casually gets gold doesn’t understand a guaranteed pity warrior!!!
One shot, one kill!
Zhao Ping'an wouldn't even dare to dream so extravagantly!!!
Zhao Ping'an quickly put on the glasses, ready to try out this rare item.
What? Ten years of life?
Damn it, he'd already entered the Zhong Gui Game, it was hard to say if he even had ten years of life left!
Zhao Ping'an put on the glasses and stared at his phone for a long time. “Huh? No reaction?”
“Ah—? Are you sick?” Large text popped up on the phone screen.
Zhao Ping'an clicked his tongue, a little disdainfully, “This thing isn’t working either.”
“What good person would use an item to look into the system’s mind?” The system was even more exasperated.
He had been acting cheap before, but now, was there something wrong with Zhao Ping'an’s brain?
“Didn’t it say, the mind of all sentient beings?” Zhao Ping'an was righteous!
“Does that mean the system has no thoughts? Or no heart?”
“......Your actions fill me with despair.”
Zhao Ping'an said with a playful smile:
“You’re a pretty good system. Without you, I might be very scared, but with you, with someone to talk to, I’m not scared at all now.”
“Thank you—because of you, the four seasons are warm!”
“???”
What? Was he not scary enough?
After acting cheap, Zhao Ping'an, wearing his glasses, looked around.
Although his room was dark and damp, it lacked no furniture, and there was a mirror on the wall directly opposite the bed.
Zhao Ping'an had lived with his grandparents in his youth and knew a bit about superstitions.
A mirror facing the bed was very bad.
How bad?
Zhao Ping'an didn't know, but it was just bad!
It seemed to say that if a mirror was placed at the foot of the bed, ghosts would be attracted in the middle of the night?
Tsk tsk, bone-chilling.
Of course, scientifically speaking, this could be explained. If you put a mirror at the foot of the bed, you'd see it at a glance if you got up in the middle of the night.
Hoo!
Half-asleep, about to get up to pee or get a drink, then open your eyes, and the big mirror reflects, and you see a person inside!
Who wouldn't be startled!
Zhao Ping'an stood in front of the mirror, intending to look at his handsome face.
Then, in the mirror, Zhao Ping'an saw a dialogue box appear beside him, and inside, it was exactly what he was thinking!
“Tsk tsk, bone-chilling.”
Zhao Ping'an’s eyes widened!
“Holy crap, buddy, awesome!”
“No way, no way, you can even see this, wow, that’s too interesting!”
Zhao Ping'an wished he could press his face against the mirror to look closely.
Then, a familiar yet strange scene appeared.
The Zhao Ping'an in the mirror suddenly stared at him expressionlessly.
Zhao Ping'an, whose heart skipped a beat: “......What the hell.”
“Holy crap, you scared the living daylights out of me. The trope is old, but it’s effective!”
Zhao Ping'an looked at his inner thoughts and fell silent.
He was a little scared just now, but now he felt like laughing, what was going on?
If he laughed now, would it make the Gui in the mirror very awkward?
Before Zhao Ping'an could laugh.
The Zhao Ping'an in the mirror suddenly stretched his mouth and smiled.
His eyes didn't move, only the corners of his mouth, which stretched insanely, as if they wanted to reach his ears, smiling sinisterly.
Zhao Ping'an: “......”
Why did you smile earlier than me!
You scared the sh*t out of me!
Zhao Ping'an’s heart skipped another beat, this time not from fear, but from his intelligent brain being illuminated!
Good heavens, he was just about to try out the upgraded Nokia, and someone had already delivered the pillow!
It was the perfect time to test the power of this upgraded Nokia!
Zhao Ping'an raised his phone. As soon as he spoke, it was too late! He smashed it against the mirror without hesitation.
The mirror shattered with a crack, and fragments fell all over the floor.
But among the fragments, there was still a broken human face, staring fixedly at Zhao Ping'an, its smile distorted.
Zhao Ping'an quickly used his phone to smash all the mirror pieces into dust.
Useful, extremely useful!
