Lu Tan thought for a moment and resisted the urge to open the video file immediately.
After all, he was told not to open it at night, so he didn't have to commit suicide.
Putting down his cell phone, Lu Tan casually opened the book "When the Human Stars Shine" which once suppressed the Lanlan Road puppets.
However, Zweig's poetic words disappeared, replaced by the system's cold and chilling panel instructions.
[Name: Lu Jian]
[Occupation: Director]
[Education: Bachelor's degree]
...
【Will:80】
【Education:70】
【Lucky:20】
【Sanity:76】
【Silence Points: 100】
[Inherent skill: all-or-nothing]
Opening his personal panel, Lu Tiao discovered three things.
First, his sanity dropped by four points.
Secondly, the rewards for the novice tasks have appeared on his panel.
Once again, an entry for Silence Points, which is like a system currency, appeared.
Finally, in the column about his occupation, the original black text turned into dark green, and it seemed that it could be clicked into.
"The reason why your sanity has decreased is because you experienced those things just now?"
Lu Tan has been roughly exposed to some horror movie theories and related literary and artistic works, and knows that in some world settings, human sanity can be quantified, and seeing scary things will reduce sanity until it becomes 0, which is completely crazy.
Just one exploration under the bed lost four points of sanity, which is a bit exaggerated...
Lu Tan didn't know how to regain his senses, so he could only accept it as an established fact.
He looked at the dark golden text "Desperate". Next to the text, the sentence about the great composer's life became an explanation of this inherent skill:
【put all one's eggs in one basket】
【inherent】
[Can interfere with the operation of the Quiet Place, and can be used once per mission]
Below these descriptions, there are a few lines of small gilded characters.
[Dice from an era that cannot be traced back]
[The legendary thing that can reverse destiny]
[Once thrown, not even the gods can interfere with the result]
[Even with such great power, the dice can only be at the mercy of others]
[Or maybe the gods who created it can use it to spy on the fate of all living beings]
【"Those who try to control their destiny will eventually be swallowed up by it"】
In the mist, next to the Riddler-like explanatory text, there is a pair of lifelike dice drawn in classical handwriting. Different from the ordinary six-sided dice, the dark golden dice has ten sides, with the numbers on them ranging from 0 to
9, written in cursive characters, is full of enchanting beauty.
"In other words, if you encounter trouble in the mission, you can rely on this dice to try your luck?"
Lu Jian seemed to understand the use of this inherent skill.
To put it simply, it is a guaranteed skill. If you are lucky, even the sanctions of the gods can avert danger. If you are not lucky, the scratches may turn into fatal injuries.
As a steady player, Lu Jian felt that he couldn't really wait until he was in crisis before using this skill. In other words, he had to be well prepared and it was best not to use this skill.
Now that he was not on a mission, he naturally couldn't use it. He looked at [Silence Points].
According to Lu Tan's experience, this thing should be able to be used to purchase goods provided by the system, or be exchanged for something.
As his thoughts changed, Lu Tan flipped through a few pages of the book in his hand, from a composer who was a genius overnight to a general who was defeated at Waterloo. The words on it were twisted, from a bitter and grand narrative poem to a cold and indifferent data entry.
"Sure enough, you can buy things with this."
Lu Tiao saw that next to the words [Silent Department Store], there were blacked-out options. The gray text on the options showed that at least 5,000 Silent Points must be obtained before they can be opened.
Obviously, he still can't choose.
Then take a look at what’s in the mall.
He took a closer look.
Good guy.
Lu Tan called him a good guy.
In this mall, there are no entertainment masterpieces or talents and skills available for purchase. Instead, there are some strange things.
"So this turns out to be not an entertainment system? Then what's the point of choosing a career in the first place?"
While Lu Tan was puzzled, he looked at a few products at random.
[Runaway revolver]
【excellent】

[Price: 777 Silence Points]

【An air friend】
[Unable to see, touch, and sense]
[You can speak to him, but do not pray for a response]
【"In Hedao, everyone has his own air friend"】
[Price: 70 Silence Points]
"...What are these things..."
Lu Tiao flipped through the catalog. It seemed that because his level authority in this system was not high enough, he could only see high-quality products at most.
Most of the high-quality products are related to something real, but the descriptions are all strange and have a certain dangerous atmosphere.
The products of ordinary quality are all messy, and most of them give people a tasteless feeling. Compared with serious items, they are more like props that appear in some funny animation.
Lu Jian only has 100 Silence Points, so most of the high-quality products are unavailable.
For ordinary quality products, Lu Jian felt that it was not worth spending points to buy them at the moment.
It might be okay to buy a [Sigh] to scare people, but I always feel like I was cheated if I bought an [Air Friend].
He rummaged around and suddenly caught a glimpse of a cheap, high-quality item in the corner.
【Knowledge of Madman】
【excellent】
[Skulls of people who gained knowledge about gods]
[Can be used to obtain knowledge from foreign lands]
[Exposure to taboo knowledge can satisfy strong curiosity]
[But it can also be crazy]
【"I see!"】
