Chapter 2384: Chapter 2384: Pursuit from the Fish

Shi Shuai leisurely ate fruit and said slowly, "People outside are too fierce, and there’s no trust between people. Not only does no one believe what I say, but there are also people teaming up to beat me."

Hua Sisi didn’t know, but the round-faced player, who was aware of his quirks, rolled his eyes and said, "If you’re going to lie, can you at least make it believable? Who would believe you’re a Super Player? You’d have a higher success rate pretending to be a Rank-A Player."

"You’re targeting those young girls just to cheat them for money and sex. If this were outside the game, even if someone exposed you, they probably couldn’t do much. But here, everyone is a player. Be careful, or you might get yourself in trouble."

"You seem pretty idle to me, wandering around with nothing to do. Why don’t you team up with me and provide intel so we can get rich together?"

Shi Shuai didn’t even bother to look at him. He finished eating the fruit in his hand before saying, "I don’t need money."

The round-faced player, with a hint of disdain, also had some envy.

"I heard him say earlier, do you really have a Perfect Potion?" At this point, Shi Shuai started a serious conversation with Xu Huo.

"Curious?" Xu Huo turned to him and then took out the previously shown box, placing it on the table.

Besides the Girl in the painting, the others in the room leaned in to look. Unfortunately, in the game, potions come in every color, so it’s hard to tell whether it’s authentic just from the appearance.

"Perfect Potion, is it really that magical?" The round-faced player said, "Can it really make so many people rush to buy it?"

"If it’s real, absolutely," Shi Shuai said with a grin, "It’s just like a dream of sudden wealth, like a pie from the sky."

The round-faced player laughed, "But haven’t most people lost out? I’ve bought small lotteries for years without winning once. If it were so easy to get rich on Perfect Potion, it would probably have already spread in the game."

That’s the truth.

"Looks like you don’t know if it’s real or not, and there’s no pressing need. I know a stable channel, guaranteed to let you sell the potion safely and worry-free." The round-faced player started thinking again.

Xu Huo was just fishing with the potion, not really short of money. He glanced at Shi Shuai, then asked, "Can you tell if it’s real or not?"

Shi Shuai had an exaggerated expression on his face, "I’m not a human detector, how could I know?"

"Aren’t you a Super Player?" Xu Huo asked in return.

Shi Shuai smoothly continued without sounding flustered, "A Super Player isn’t a Super Pharmacist. You can’t expect a Super Player to know everything!"

Xu Huo touched his chin, felt it made sense, and only said after putting the potion away, "If I could get more potions, maybe I’d know."

"You really dare to dream." The round-faced player shrugged, "I’m going to sleep now. I have to go out to work early tomorrow... Ah, poverty is really troubling."

There were enough places to sleep in the room. After Shi Shuai and Hua Sisi also went to rest, Xu Huo looked at the Girl in the painting, who was still sitting beside, playing with the communicator, "Aren’t you going to sleep?"

The Girl in the painting waved mysteriously at him to look at her communicator.

The content on the screen was magnified and projected out, revealing an exploration mini program.

Although the program’s graphics were cartoonish, it was clearly the layout of the Fish Banquet Building. Key exploration points within the floors were marked, along with the Pocket Door and suspected easter egg locations. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

This couldn’t be the Girl in the painting’s communicator; it was obviously swiped from someone else. But it was unexpected that players who entered would turn the Fish Banquet into an adventure game.

Xu Huo watched for a while and understood that some key points were freely uploaded by various players. For example, if a player entered a dangerous room and luckily escaped, they might upload the information to this program and receive a small reward.

Fake messages couldn’t be ruled out, but there were always bold players willing to verify them; those who survived would refresh the data or hunt down the message provider.

There really are all kinds of ways to play.

The space collapse event that just happened on the 49th floor was also marked, but the provider did not mention the space situation, instead indicating that this floor had dungeon props on the loose, not yet found by Fish Banquet staff.

This was the earliest message. Later, there were a few more messages from other floors, stating either encountering or spotting the dungeon prop. Capturing it didn’t seem easy, and the prop was still roaming the building, swallowing people.

The Girl in the painting was truly interested in this dungeon prop, "I want to catch it."

"That might be a bit dangerous," Xu Huo said, "This is a dungeon prop."

Setting aside the level, more importantly, the building was full of small spaces. If trapped, getting out would be a bit challenging.

The Girl in the painting wasn’t afraid. If she were trapped, she could look for an opportunity to escape. After thinking about it, she still said, "I still want to go with you."

Xu Huo took her communicator smoothly, asked her to rest, and kept an eye on the escaped dungeon prop’s movements.

But the messages stopped on the 39th floor.

No one had updated anything related for an hour. Instead, locations where players and players wearing shark masks fought were being disclosed.

Could it be that the Fish Banquet Building players had already retrieved the dungeon prop?

The main lights in the room had been turned off, leaving only a small lamp by the sofa. Xu Huo sat by the sofa, occasionally checking the communicator’s content.

Players remained active at night, with plenty of pointless messages.

After a while, he put down the communicator. Just as he closed his eyes for a moment to rest, he suddenly had the feeling of being watched...

He immediately went into alert mode, his hand quicker than his mind, triggering the Water Cube Barrier. As the barrier formed, several tentacle-like shadows reached out from mid-air towards him!

Unable to dodge, he was knocked out of place, and besides the tentacles, a giant Prop Fish followed. With a fleeting glance, he only saw the tentacles coming out of the fish’s mouth, forming a buffer between him and the Prop Fish.

Seeing the Prop Fish coming at him, Xu Huo was already prepared for impact, but unexpectedly, the massive fish plunged into a Space Portal right in front of him, vanishing swiftly!

The Prop Fish’s action lacked an assisting Space Portal prop, so it only felt like a spatial power fluctuation, with the portal unseen. Therefore, in human eyes, it appeared and disappeared suddenly, as if residing within a space crevice, just happening to emerge in front of people!

"It’s that fish!" The round-faced player, hearing the commotion, came out of the room in shock, "Could it be trying to hunt down players?!"
