Chapter 25: The system cured my internal friction
After hearing the heart-warming words, Niniya's tears that were about to well up in her eyes stopped instantly.
The devil is so bullying...
"Good morning, gentlemen and ladies of Silver Dragon Castle, welcome to the competition venue of the festival celebration. Today your lord has prepared wonderful programs and events for you, which will definitely open your eyes!"
The lord waved to the people in the audience and greeted the people on the other side of the stage.
"Band, play music!"
With that said, Vincent winked at Niniya and picked up the trumpet-shaped instrument that made the harsh sound just now.
"Dance, my dressed doll!"
"In the next time, you will no longer be a trainee, but the most shining star!"
The more she was encouraged, the more flustered Niniya, who had been working in a low-key job among adventurers, became more flustered.
"Master, I'm afraid..."
"Just do it like you did in the previous rehearsal." Vincent said casually, and then loudly said to the audience, "Today's opening program is a dance performance by Miss Neniya Wald for everyone!"
It seems that the lord will never change his mind. Ninnia has cried and begged before, but he was unmoved and encouraged her to "defeat herself."
A burst of magical music composed of various musical instruments, even the rhythm of the prelude is so fast that it makes people's scalp numb, but it is unexpectedly addictive, sounded on the stage.
Even though the instruments played are still the familiar organ, harp, recorder and other familiar faces, the style and melody are completely different from the music of the past.
Could this be the music of demons?
Many people who have lived here for decades do not remember hearing the demon musician play such music before.
In their impression, the music of the demons is not only unspeakable of demonic nature, but also unscrupulous.
Niniya had no choice but to grit her teeth, raise her hands with tears in her eyes, and start dancing.
For former adventurers who have mastered certain martial arts skills, it is not difficult to learn these dance moves. The key is that the mental quality must be strong.
In other words, when facing the hot looks from the audience, you must be thick-skinned.
It has to be said that the music passed down by the leader himself has a very strong brainwashing ability. Although it makes people feel ungentlemanly, the melody will not be forgotten after listening to it once.
Coupled with the girl's painstakingly rehearsed dance, the people at the scene immediately fell into an uncontrollable following frenzy.
"Keep playing, keep dancing!" Vincent shouted to the band, "The people are clamoring for it to happen again!"
"Okay, Master..."
Niniya, whose eyes were lifeless, was on the verge of crying and had no tears left, and had completely turned into an emotionless dancing machine.
Sure enough, beautiful clothes are not just for yourself.
Under the repeated baptism of the brainwashing magic song, not even the two distinguished old people were spared.
"Mr. Bishop, what's wrong with your leg?"
"After sitting for a long time, shake your legs. Master Mage, are your feet numb too?"
"Haha, I haven't been this numb for a long time."
"Master Mage, what is the name of this music?"
"The lord said that it seems to be called the 'Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss'..."
"My Lord Bishop, the instrument played by the lord is very interesting. It is simply the leader among musical instruments. No other instrument can surpass it..."
"Hmph! I think that the musical instrument called 'Suona' is extremely disharmonious and unruly, just like...like..."
"What does it look like?"
"Like a arrogant outlaw!"
"Outlaw gangster? This is a pretty good title, hahaha..."
Amidst the music, Vincent heard a familiar sound coming from the system.
"Ding! The protection value has reached the upgrade requirements, and the new reward for the god has been released!"
[Protection value: 6741/6741]
[Recovery time: 0.6 days]
[Next level: 10000]
[Next level upgrade reward: reduce protection value consumption speed by 10%]
There seems to be no change? Vincent took advantage of the pause in playing to carefully check his status.
"System, why didn't I find the reward?" Vincent asked suspiciously in his heart, "Is it because I didn't train you well?"
"Please don't compare me to your dancing slave. In addition, please check the skill options. The God just added a new category."
Is adding unlocked skill options also regarded as a reward?
He and Craftsman God Kraft have set up 20 major categories, and there are more than a hundred lower-level categories and sub-categories below. Vincent feels his scalp numb every time he turns over it.
Looking at Niniya who was still on stage with a business smile, dancing hard and waving, Vincent suddenly felt a little ashamed.
Even if you work so hard to dress your own doll, as a lord, what reason do you have for not working hard?
In order to get lost in playing with things, you must work harder to improve the system anytime, anywhere!
"System, now add auxiliary functions."
"Please tell us about the accessibility features."
"In the menu list of unlocked skills, add a 'new' prompt mark after the new category."
"The new function has been confirmed. Please use 1000 protection points to make the modification effective."
"What? 1,000 points. For such a small function, it doesn't even take a programmer three minutes. Why don't you grab it?"
"Then you can read it slowly in the future. This can help you pass the boring time."
"……agree."
It has to be said that the system handles too many protective points every day, and it seems to have become more sophisticated.
Has the free trial period of the system ended?
[Protection value: 5788/6788]
So, Vincent saw a sparkling option in the "Education, Art, Sports and Entertainment Products Manufacturing" category of the unlocked menu - "Musical Instrument Manufacturing Category".
Under this major category, there are a series of subcategories that seem to have been added by the God of Craftsmanship.
Wind instruments, string instruments, percussion instruments, musical instrument parts and accessories...
Huh? Could it be that after his performance this time, the God of Craftsman noticed the role of the musical instrument?
This should be a good thing. Thinking that he could make various musical instruments, Vincent couldn't help but be filled with yearning.
But here comes the problem, you can only play suona?
Even if it can be played from the full moon to the first seven, it can only be regarded as a niche instrument.
"System, can I use protection points to unlock performance skills?"
"I regret to tell you that this does not belong to the divine duties."
"This is indeed a bit regretful, but I understand, and I can't be too greedy..."
In this dangerous place, Vincent knows very well the principle of not being overwhelmed by the many arts.
At this moment, the system suddenly showed its considerate side.
"Don't worry, although the god cannot give you such skills again, you can give the god more faith and let the god exchange faith with other gods."
These words were like rain falling from the sky, an enlightenment that made Vincent's depression disappear.
Can gods trade with each other using faith?
Is there such a magical operation possible?
Could it be that it was originally due to lack of faith that the Craftsman God had a low godhood and no capital to communicate with other gods?
So what are you waiting for? Vincent's spirit refreshed, and his body, which was a little tired, became full of energy in an instant.
"Thank you system! Praise the God!"
"I'm just relaying the facts. Why are you so grateful?"
