Can someone in MyGo stay in an adventure group forever?

Donatz: I guess your build relies on extremely high-frequency multi-hit attacks to deal additional damage, right? That's why you got directly... killed by the reflected damage.

Cursed Blade: Yes... I'm a Ranger, my subclass is Cluster Healer. Then I accidentally discovered that when initially customizing the cluster's appearance, setting it to a cockroach grants a special effect...

He forwarded the description of the characteristics of the "Guangdong Little Elf" to the other party.

There was silence on the other end of the chat for a long time, so long that Yuecunze began to suspect that the other person had disconnected.

Donatz: Huh?!

Donatz: So... that was a cockroach?

No, so you didn't even see what was gnawing at you when you were hitting it?!

Donatus: You big bad guy!

Donatz: ?

Donatz: ?

Donatz: ?

Donatz: I hate you!

Donatz: I'm ignoring you!!!

Has anyone ever told you—

When you yell at someone, it really sounds like you're being affectionate.

Chapter Thirty-Five: I Prevented a Crime

[Settling your account...]

【Climbing Floors (79) - 7900】

【Job Level (11) - 8500】

[Hidden Feature Discovered (1) - 3000]

【Enemy killed (189) - 6672】

[Defeat boss (4) - 4000]

[By completing Challenge Room (3) - 9000]

【...】

Koshimura's gaze swept over the dense rows of data, finally settling on the total score at the bottom.

Total Score: 44384

[Rewards draw in progress...]

You have received a reward:

The gentle caress of night

【Quality: Extraordinary】

The black eye mask does not require straps to secure it; it simply adheres to the face automatically.

Wearing this eye mask will significantly improve sleep quality and bodily sensitivity, making it easier to fall asleep and less likely to be disturbed during sleep.

[If a user falls asleep and takes a long break while wearing the eye mask, they will have an advantage when exercising sensory exemptions in the following 24 hours.]

After climbing 79 floors, all I got was an unusual rare item...?

That makes sense, since the challenge room gives the most points, and the rewards should increase significantly after passing at least 80 levels of the challenge room.

If you could get rare or higher-rarity items just by casually fighting, the Adventurers' Guild probably wouldn't be around anymore.

So I'm stuck on the 79th floor, a floor I can't go up or down?

Yuecunze wanted to cry but had no tears. Eryin san5VII Jiuliushan Er.

In the Tower of Sages, I encountered a donut. It was so strong that it could inflict damage back like a monster, and I couldn't defeat it even with all my strength.

However, although it is an extraordinary artifact, its effect is actually quite good. It does not require synchronization or carrying it with you. You can just sleep on it. It is basically a free sensory advantage, which is better than the consolation prize of tissues.

This level of bodily sensitivity seems a bit strange... Shouldn't it be harder to fall asleep if your body becomes more sensitive?

As the subtitles disappeared, a blue spatial rift suddenly appeared behind him.

Feeling the soft, smooth texture of the fabric in his hand, Koshimura casually put it in his pocket, turned around, and stepped into the crevice.

After a familiar feeling of weightlessness, he reappeared before the hollow entrance in the center of the platform where he had entered before.

The entire basement remained silent, with only the central control panel flickering faintly.

Koshimura took his phone out of his pocket, turned it off, pressed and held the power button to turn it on, and glanced at the time.

—Has more than two hours already passed?

As expected, Roguelike games and Metroidvania, like Paradox Interactive, are time killers.

Koshimura Sawa remembers that his longest streak was playing continuously from 0:00 to 23:59.

[He only played for a minute, didn't he?]

【wrong】

You're right, but that's just how the Hollow Knight is: a cup of tea, a pack of cigarettes, four locks and five doors, and a whole day of fighting.

Yuecun Ze put away his phone and walked downstairs, planning to say hello to Lixi at the front desk later before going back to rest.

Although my body wasn't physically exhausted in reality, and my short and long breaks were just sitting around the campfire, it was impossible not to be tired after fighting so many battles in a row and constantly thinking about how to optimize my deck.

The soles of the shoes tapped against the metal steps, producing a crisp echo that continued downwards, sounding particularly clear in the empty basement.

Just then, out of the corner of his eye, Koshimura caught a glimpse of a familiar figure.

Shiina Tatsuki was sitting leaning against the wall in a chair, her head tilted to one side, her eyes closed, and her breathing even. She was clearly asleep.

Koshimura Sawa subconsciously slowed his pace and quietly approached.

Lixi's sleeping face was unexpectedly serene. Her usually furrowed brows relaxed, and her slightly messy black hair clung to one side of her cheek, rising and falling gently with her breath. Her lightly pursed lips were like bouncy jelly, seemingly coated with a thin layer of lip gloss, crystal clear and making one want to take a big bite.

Li Xi is so pretty!

In a daze, Shiina Riki suddenly felt a flash of light before her eyes.

She struggled to open her sleepy eyes and saw Yuecun Ze standing in front of her, with the camera on his phone pointed at her.

Holy crap, this is like minting coins! How could you forget to turn off the flash?

Koshimura quickly put his phone behind his back and pretended to look to the side.

"Wait...were you taking pictures of me secretly?" Shiina Riki instantly snapped out of it and asked warily.

"Of course not, how could that be?" Koshimura Sawa firmly denied. "I was just thinking of taking a selfie to commemorate my first time trying the [Sage's Tower]."

Shiina Tatsuki narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at him with suspicion.

"Wait, really!" Yuecun Ze quickly opened the photo album and handed her the phone. "See for yourself if you don't believe me."

Shiina Riki took the phone, swiped it a few times, and sure enough, there were several selfies of his. The background was the basement where they were, and it was obvious that they had just taken them.

...narcissism.

She moved her slender, long fingers to the next photo, but the style suddenly changed; it went from a selfie to a black, sheer tank top—

I'm so awesome!

"Alright, now you believe me, right?" Yuecun Ze quickly snatched the phone back from her hand.

I almost forgot that I have a ton of lewd pictures saved in my phone's photo album.

Fortunately, I used the speed of a Zaun esports pianist to hide the photo I had just taken in the safe within 0.01 seconds.

Otherwise, if Li Xi sees this and misunderstands that I like a drummer with long black hair and purple eyes, that wouldn't be good.

【No, you've given such specific details, why don't you just give your ID number?】

Sigh, I never thought that my affair with An and Subaru would eventually be exposed.

【...？】

"Tsk." Shiina Tatsuki looked at him and clicked her tongue in dissatisfaction. "There are still a lot of cases in Japan where people are falsely accused of taking photos without consent. It's best not to do things that are easy to misunderstand in the future."

[A. "Don't worry, Lixi, from now on I'll definitely film you openly and honestly."]

[B. "Don't worry, Lixi, even if you pay me to film this, I still won't film it."]

[C. "I see. Looks like I'll have to hone my candid photography skills to secretly photograph my wife, Takamatsu Akari."]

I feel like no matter which option I choose, I'll die with my eyes wide open in disbelief.

"Don't worry, Lixi," Yuecunze said seriously. "Even if you pay me to film you, I still won't film you."

"Huh?" Shiina Tatsuki finally couldn't help but stand up abruptly. "I said, you bastard—"

Before she could finish speaking, everything suddenly went black. Her body swayed, and then she fell straight backward.

Koshimura Sawa quickly reached out and supported her back.

Even through the thin fabric of her uniform, my palm could clearly feel the contours of her shoulder blades and the warmth emanating from her skin.

The sudden touch and exchange of body temperature caused both of them to freeze for a moment.

Despite being a warrior, Ke Lixi's body was even more slender than one might imagine. Long hours of training had made the girl's body taut where it should be taut and soft where it should be soft, making it feel absolutely perfect to the touch.

Unfortunately, before Koshimura could fully appreciate and enjoy the beauty, Shiina Riki suddenly snapped back to reality. Her cheeks flushed red at a visible speed, spreading all the way to her ear tips and neck, as if she had finally regained control of her body. She hurriedly straightened up.

“...Thank you,” she said in a barely audible voice.

"It's nothing." Koshimura released his hand. "Do you feel dizzy? Do you know why?"

Shiina Tatsuki thought for a moment, then said hesitantly, "Maybe... it's just that I stayed up too late last night?"

Koshimura Sawa: "......"

Are you going to compete with long-term vegetarians for the title of champion of staying up all night?

No wonder I was able to fall asleep while sitting.

"Speaking of which... Lixi, you didn't just wait for me outside like this, did you?" Yuecunze asked, glancing at the chair she had been sitting in.

"How could that be?" Shiina Tatsuki immediately denied anxiously, "I just sat outside for a while, and it went on for too long... and I accidentally fell asleep."

The part about being stubborn.

"Let's not talk about that now." Shiina Tatsuki looked at the "I knew it" smile on his face and felt inexplicably annoyed. "You were in there for quite a while. Now can you tell me exactly how many floors you climbed?"

“7? Erqiu (two) er [? Yi 2 08] 9th floor.

"I see... I knew it, the first time I went in, it would definitely be the 79th floor?!" Shiina Riki suddenly raised his voice, which echoed throughout the entire basement and lingered for a long time.

"What's wrong..."

Koshimura Sawa's ears went numb from the shock, and he subconsciously rubbed them.

So, the echo in Echo Knight is actually this echo?

Li Xi's voice is so loud, it seems we'll have to install soundproofing in the bedroom from now on, otherwise it won't be good to disturb the neighbors in the middle of the night.

[Sigh, hysteria]

Shiina Ritsuki looked at him with a complicated expression.

On my first visit to the Sage's Tower, I almost reached the 80th floor... Is this what genius is all about?

She remembered the first time she entered, but she was eliminated on the 20th floor...

"I see... Well, congratulations then." Shiina Tatsuki's voice lowered, sounding somewhat muffled. "Did you get the Youth Elixir?"

"No, I estimate that the secret to youth will only appear in a higher level." Yuecun Ze said, looking at her somewhat gloomy expression. "Actually, I only reached the 79th floor this time because of luck. Who knows next time? There's still a lot to learn."

It was indeed due to luck, but it was just really bad luck.

If I told you that if I hadn't met Ms. Donut, I'd probably be on the 120th floor by now, wouldn't you just explode?
