Players, Please Board the Train

Xu Huo opened his personal panel, and all the data had been updated.

[Player Nickname: Extra]

[Player Type: Black Player]

[Occupation: Extra]

[Note: As someone forever on the road, his chance of becoming the protagonist is only one in ten thousand.]

[Player Level: D]

[Number: 556688]

[Evolution Rate: 30%]

[Assets: 220,000 White Bills]

[Major Characteristics: ① Tireless Legs; ② Informer’s Perspective; ③ A Sad Thing; ④ Accident Trigger Constitution; ⑤ The Power of Writing; ⑥ Truth Transcends All][Note 1: Congratulations to the player for developing a new characteristic. Legend has it that an extra always appears at the first scene of various accident events. As someone tasked with spreading the details of events, he always manages to escape unscathed every time. This legendary lucky trait is ”Truth Transcends All.” When the world needs an extra, any danger will be eliminated. After using this characteristic, the extra will receive 360-degree, all-around protection that can defend against attacks from characteristics, items, weapons, etc. However, please note its duration is only three seconds, and it has a twenty-four-hour cooldown.]

[Note 2: Congratulations to the player for developing a new extended characteristic—Straight-Line Distance. As a man with tireless legs, how could he not have the ability to arrive at an accident scene at the first possible moment? This characteristic combines with Frequent Movement, allowing the player to perform straight-line acceleration between two points within a hundred-meter range. Simply estimate and select a suitable point, and the speed can reach one hundred meters per second.]

[Note 3: Congratulations to the player for developing a new extended characteristic—Forced Forgetfulness. As someone who is often overlooked, an extra also has a temper. This characteristic can be used on multiple people simultaneously. As long as the target is looking at the extra, whether at his hair or his heels, it can make them completely forget everything about the extra for five seconds. However, it can only be used on a person once, and it has a suspicion of being a prank. To avoid being beaten to death by high-level players, please use it cautiously.]

[Note 4: Congratulations to the extra for developing a new extended characteristic—Finalized Script. Whether in movies or novels, everyone knows an outline is useless because a script only becomes truly effective when filming or writing is complete. An extra possessing the Informer’s Perspective can discover details in the script that others cannot, even if the extra himself is unaware. Therefore, after each event concludes, using this characteristic might bring surprises. Works best when paired with paper.]

[New Items: ① Possibly the Brush of Ma Liang (C); ② Lucky Bracelet (D); ③ Lasting Illumination (D); ④ Collection Box (E); ⑤ Contactless Collection Tools (E); ⑥ Full-Body Anti-Pollution Suit (E); ⑦ Robber’s Treasure Box (E); ⑧ Charm +1% (E)]

[New Potions: ① Family Reunion (E); ② Sleep Aid Potion (E); ③ Rainbow Bubbles (E); ④ Appetite Enhancer (E); ⑤ Emetic (E)]

[New Train Ticket: King’s Toy City (E)]

The rewards from concluding this dungeon were far more bountiful than Xu Huo had anticipated. Just one major characteristic and three extended characteristics alone exceeded his expectations. Compared to these few, everything else was almost negligible.

Especially the major characteristic ”Truth Transcends All.” Although its duration was only three seconds, it could defend against the conventional threats currently in the game. The B-grade item ”Mobile Metal” could only defend against three firepower attacks, but this characteristic could achieve the same. Of course, its strength remained to be determined; it was unknown if it could reach the level of a B-grade item.

However, its powerful aspect lay in its ability to evade characteristic and item powers. Invisible and intangible characteristic and item powers were often the most dangerous. Relying solely on items for defense often proved insufficient. Three seconds was enough time to save one’s life when encountering a powerful enemy.

Moreover, judging by the description, this characteristic’s defensive power should be extremely strong. It might even be able to withstand the characteristics of high-level players.

Additionally, ”Straight-Line Distance” had already reached the speed of the peregrine falcon, the fastest land speed in Zone 014, timely compensating for his speed deficiency in terms of evolution rate.

”Forced Forgetfulness” had a similar effect to the item ”Strangers Though Familiar,” but ”Forced Forgetfulness” could be used on multiple people and ignored the target’s player level. Looking solely at the usage conditions, if combined with ”The Power of Writing,” it might even be sufficient for him to escape from situations with an absolute disparity in power.

Looking at the characteristic ”Finalized Script,” Xu Huo directly took out a piece of paper and used it.

Lines of text appeared out of thin air on the white paper, writing about his general experiences after entering the dungeon. Some parts had details, some did not. There was nothing particularly special.

But when it reached the part where he escaped from the Department Store with Xin Lang, there were a few things he didn’t know.

”...While Xu Huo took off his face shield to disguise himself and escape, Lang Lang inadvertently placed a strand of white mycelium on his clothes. The almost weightless white mycelium invaded his skin through his neck.”

”...Although Xu Huo and Lang Lang escaped into the Underground Nest, they were targeted by a player named Yuan Cun. Xu Huo actually didn’t know that Yuan Cun used a characteristic on him when he left the ground.”

”...Lang Lang’s description of the King Fungus’s function greatly tempted Xu Huo. Out of caution, he did not verify it, but the symptoms of his fungal infection had already disappeared.”

”...Just ten seconds before the car stopped, Xu Huo passed by a Fungus Research Institute. The display window held many fungus specimens and a book titled ’Complete Fungus Encyclopedia.’”

From the information in these lines of text, Xu Huo roughly understood the activation conditions and scope of ”Finalized Script.”

The prerequisite for using this characteristic was that it had to happen to him, something he experienced or witnessed. The script could not write about things beyond his knowledge. For example, Yuan Cun using a characteristic on him—he personally did not sense it, but the script could record it. However, it would only record it plainly and could not learn the effect of the characteristic.

The mention of the ”Fungus Research Institute” was a bit interesting. This was something he had glanced at in passing, which didn’t catch his attention, but the script specifically noted it.

In other words, he himself did not consider this important information, but when the script compiled the details, it provided this piece of information by combining the entire event’s cause and effect.

This was an unexpected delight.

The text had not yet ended: ”While Xu Huo was using the characteristic in the car, someone was watching him from the clock tower opposite.”

Xu Huo’s brows furrowed heavily. He immediately looked up at the clock tower. He had observed that place earlier and hadn’t found anyone. The script actually indicated that the other party was watching him. In that case, ”Good Friends Come to Score” should have displayed the other party’s numerical values.

Could the characteristic not provide numerical values? Or had the other party used some special item to evade the characteristic?
