Chapter 91: The Ranger Sequence: Tong Qi's Value Increases

Xu Lang raised an eyebrow.

The Black Market Merchant likes spicy food? That's interesting.

Rainy Night Blade had mentioned earlier that their dormitory buildings were relatively close to each other, so was it possible the Black Market Merchant might come to his place as well?

Thinking of this, he opened the Trading Network and bought several Devil Peppers.

Although Devil Peppers were only level 1, they could be upgraded with Nightmare Coins.

Something with such distinct properties shouldn't possibly upgrade into something non-spicy, right?

He still remembered that bitter lesson from the Blood Thread Insect incident.

After Lone Wanderer finished sharing his intelligence, Heavy Armor Maniac began sharing his information.

Heavy Armor Maniac: "I accidentally got the Top Player title in the last round of the game. Among the level 9 Core Facilities, there's a mineral vein. I suspect it's a gold-generating type facility. Those of you who like management gameplay might want to choose it next time."

Lone Wanderer: "Old Maniac, quickly tell us what kind of dungeon that was, how you got the Top Player title, and did your dorm suffer any casualties?"

Heavy Armor Maniac: "Hehe, four quality Tenants died. I'm currently recruiting, but because my dorm's casualty rate is too high, nobody really wants to join. As for the dungeon type, it was just a regular attack-defense dungeon, nothing special to say."

Heavy Armor Maniac: "Alright, you guys quickly share your information too. I'm in a hurry."

Rainy Night Blade: "Nothing new on my end, so I won't waste your time."

Heavy Armor Maniac: "What about you, Fierce Zero?"

Xu Lang remained silent throughout, rapidly digesting the information. After a few seconds, he heard a seductive female voice.

Midnight Fierce Zero: "I don't have anything either~"

Xu Lang shuddered.

That voice was too alluring!

However, judging by her username, Xu Lang suspected she might actually be a guy.

Heavy Armor Maniac: "Alright newcomer, now it's your turn."

Xu Lang picked up the voice changer, carefully considered his wording, then got on the mic.

Zero Number: "Nothing much else to say, I'll just tell you about our dormitory building. I discovered there are several players in the dormitory building who spend the entire game period not in their dorms, but wandering outside."

In reality, there was only one such player - Zhang Dahai.

Rainy Night Blade said in surprise: "Damn, you hit the jackpot!"

Heavy Armor Maniac: "You've encountered players from the Ranger sequence."

Xu Lang's gaze sharpened.

This was the first time he had heard the word "sequence" from someone else's mouth.

Rainy Night Blade: "Yeah, and there are several Rangers in one dormitory building... tsk tsk, if they all obtained their sequences in your building, then I think you should consider changing buildings."

Zero Number: "I just transferred here, so I'm not very clear. Could you explain why?"

Rainy Night Blade: "A dormitory building only has a limited number of sequences - not too many, not too few. If they're all Ranger sequences, then without powerful sequence players to secure the building, you'll eventually get wiped out."

Midnight Fierce Zero: "Blade Brother, could you explain what the Ranger sequence is? I don't really understand."

I don't understand either... Xu Lang silently pricked up his ears.

Rainy Night Blade: "As everyone knows, players are more easily detected by monsters in the wild. The Ranger sequence refers to sequences that have the ability to block this detection, allowing free movement in wilderness areas. And these sequence players generally have very strong individual combat capabilities."

Midnight Fierce Zero: "So that's what Ranger means. I thought it was some kind of righteous NPC."

Rainy Night Blade: "Don't underestimate the Ranger community. All regular players' ultimate dream is simply to occupy a building, while Rangers dream of exploring the entire Blood Mist World! Capable Rangers are all very arrogant, and the extreme ones will even directly abandon their dorms to become Wanderers!"

Midnight Fierce Zero: "So that's how it is. Blade Brother is so amazing, you know everything. Could you explain what sequences are?"

Rainy Night Blade: "Sure..."

Heavy Armor Maniac: "Boring, I'm leaving first."

After Heavy Armor Maniac left, Lone Wanderer also left.

Neither of them wanted to listen to such basic information.

That's right - to them, this was just basic information.

Rainy Night Blade's premium mature male voice became slightly distorted: "These two guys, don't they want to hear my unique understanding of sequences?!"

Midnight Fierce Zero: "Hehe, don't be angry Blade Brother. If they won't listen, we will."

Rainy Night Blade: "You should already be a sequence holder yourself. Your seductive aura is too natural - your ability must be related to charm."

Seeing Midnight Fierce Zero rendered speechless, Xu Lang couldn't help but twitch his mouth.

This Rainy Night Blade - sometimes his mouth was as sharp as a blade, really cutting.

Rainy Night Blade: "Sequences start from E and go upward. I don't know the highest level, but the highest I know of is A."

Rainy Night Blade: "And the number after the level represents danger level. C-1 would be many times more terrifying than C-100."

Rainy Night Blade: "From what I know, each sequence is unique and seems to exist permanently, not disappearing even when sequence players die, almost like some kind of curse!"

Rainy Night Blade: "This might sound too abstract, so let me tell you about a sequence player I killed. His sequence was D-86 Siren, a very powerful combat sequence, just not very suitable for dormitory environments. Otherwise, I might not have been able to defeat him..."

Afterward, Rainy Night Blade shared a lot of information in one breath, then went offline.

Xu Lang also went offline.

Midnight Fierce Zero didn't seem to be an experienced player, and she wasn't being honest in her speech, so communicating with her would likely be a waste of time.

After turning off the radio, Xu Lang looked at Tong Qi with a peculiar gaze.

Cao Yaxuan and Wang Yazhi did the same.

"Little Tong, your Ghost Controller sequence doesn't seem ordinary," Cao Yaxuan said, staring at Tong Qi.

"Really? I suppose so." A hint of bashfulness appeared on Tong Qi's slightly chubby face: "Thanks to Lang Ge, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to collect all ten Ten Day Bells."

"You had the opportunity," Xu Lang shook his head and said: "Tong Qi, I feel your sequence is the type that could go for extreme stat allocation routes."

Cao Yaxuan nodded repeatedly in strong agreement.

Having up to ten ghosts under control, plus possessing damage immunity abilities like Ghost Shadow - that was truly broken.

They had tested it before - when Tong Qi used Ghost Shadow, her body would become ethereal, and all frontal attacks would pass right through her.

However, Tong Qi's mental energy was too low. At her limit, she could only activate Ghost Shadow three times consecutively, and during that period, there would be at least 0.1 seconds of physical form time.

"I think so too." Tong Qi nodded and immediately allocated all her attribute points to mental energy.

"If only we could get you a mental energy cultivation method," Xu Lang said with a smile.

Cao Yaxuan's eyes lit up: "Didn't Rainy Night Blade say that with good luck, sequences can unlock new abilities later? Maybe there really is one."

Hearing this, all four of them felt some anticipation.

Although Sherry didn't fully understand the specific meaning, she knew it was something good.

As for Wang Yazhi and the others, after learning about the Ghost Controller's true value, they felt happy for Tong Qi.

"Feels like Tong Qi could completely leave Dorm 200 now and operate independently!"

"Yazhi Sister, stop joking!"

"Hahaha!"

Within Dorm 200, a cheerful atmosphere prevailed.

And this atmosphere grew increasingly joyful... with an added touch of pink.

The point-farming Pals had started working!
