San Tian Liang Jiao
Chapter 331 Rotten Egg
As the white light in front of him brightened, Feng Bujue returned to the landing space.
The touchscreen quickly displayed the script's reward settlement.

At the same time, a system prompt rang out: [You have leveled up to Level 29. Stamina limit increased. Current: 2900/2900]
"Hmm... finally reached twenty-nine..." Feng Bujue muttered, looking at the game menu.
He and his three teammates left the Deduction Club with unbelievable ease.
After that Zhuanxie Zun flew away, it took them more than a minute to recover from the shock and break the silence.
The four briefly discussed the previous situation. Feng Bujue simply explained his encounter with Billy the Puppet, as an explanation for the Boss's last few words. But this hidden Boss still had many oddities that puzzled the players.
They immediately picked up the book the Boss pointed to, wanting to see what the so-called "backdoor" meant. Unexpectedly, the moment they opened the book, the four were teleported to a chaotic and distorted space and received a prompt that all main quests had been completed and they would be teleported in 180 seconds.
"Hmm... I shouldn't have opened that book." Feng Bujue muttered to himself with some annoyance, "There seemed to be a massive amount of information to be found in that Deduction Club..." He vaguely felt that this Zhuanxie Zun was of great significance in the game, perhaps even more valuable than the Four Pillars Gods.
Just then, several notification sounds rang out, and Feng Bujue's attention returned to the screen.
The friend requests from Qiufeng Se and Yuzhong Jichang came right on cue.
Honghu really didn't send Jue Ge a friend request. It seemed his personality was somewhat similar to Feng Bujue's...
Feng Bujue thought about it and accepted anyway. This time, the lineup in his friend list was impressive. Counting the previous Shiva, Qisha, and Zhao Yingwang, this could be an all-star team.
After adding friends, he immediately walked out of the elevator to collect the remaining rewards in the storage room.
But after only a few steps, he suddenly thought: "Wait... the hidden storyline seems to have been messed up by Billy." He tilted his head and said, "According to that Zhuanxie Zun, it seems that because Billy pleaded for me, he let us off."
"Without Billy's help, Zhuanxie Zun would have appeared in an antagonistic manner, or simply not appeared at all." Feng Bujue frowned and pondered, "Under that scenario, we would have to rely on ourselves to solve the puzzles, find a way to recreate the four keys, and escape the Deduction Club. Or, actively find Zhuanxie Zun and kill it."
Feng Bujue's way of thinking was just like that, which we often call ungrateful...
In fact, Billy had done him a great favor this time. Obviously, the task [Defeat the true 'Boss' or escape the Deduction Club] could only be chosen from the latter.
X-23 had already described Zhuanxie Zun's strength, which was second only to the Four Pillars Gods. That is, a world-class Boss in Thriller Paradise, whose data was unique and closely related to the changes in the entire game world.
Let's put it this way... when facing this kind of Boss, find six strong, max-level players with top-tier equipment, and then consider the issue of killing it.
In terms of the current game progress, even if the top six players on the combat power rankings formed a team and went together, they would not be able to kill this guy.
And Feng Bujue's intention to kill Zhuanxie Zun was purely wishful thinking. Mainly because Jue Ge had suffered relatively few setbacks since he started playing, and had hardly suffered any losses against leader-level monsters like Samodir and Billy. So, he had a misconception that all the monsters mentioned in the task could be killed...
But in reality, there were countless powerful Bosses that players could not kill... Most of them, players didn't even have the opportunity to challenge.
Take the Four Pillars Gods as an example. Since the server opened, no player in Thriller Paradise had ever directly faced the Four Pillars Gods in battle.
Although there were often posts on the forum discussing the behind-the-scenes plot of the game, with many people piecing things together and describing the four gods vividly, these... were all circumstantial evidence. No one had ever really fought them.
When the system generated scripts, it was impossible to give a group of players who had just passed level thirty, or even hadn't reached level thirty, the opportunity to challenge the Four Pillars Gods. At most, they would be mentioned in some plots, or they would make a cameo appearance.
Just like the script where Feng Bujue encountered the Lord of Time, he only heard a voice. Even if he was crazy enough to attack the Lord of Time at the time, he wouldn't know how to fight.
…………
"Okay, let's see what I've drawn this time." Feng Bujue came to the first glass pillar and first drew the script's completion reward.
His specialization levels were generally high. "Learnable" skill cards could be skills from any specialization. Of course, what Feng Bujue wanted most now was a summoning-type skill.
Unfortunately... he didn't have that luck...
[Name: Stinky Chicken "Bomb"]
[Skill Card Attribute: Active skill, disappears after one use]
[Skill Category: Shooting]
[Effect: Launches a stinky egg at the target, causing a huge amount of aggro, attracting it to attack you (a shooting-type weapon must be used when activating this skill, weapon form is not limited).]
[Consumption: 1 Stamina Point]
[Learning Requirements: Shooting Specialization D]
[Remarks: Cannot be used on players. ps: Many people told me that I must have been out of my mind when I designed this skill, but Bob from the technical department told me that this skill is not too bad. So, I kept it, anyway, not every set of data has the possibility of being generated, maybe no one will ever see this line.]
"What kind of junk is this..." Feng Bujue couldn't help but complain, "This kind of useless effect... and it's a one-time consumable skill? What a rip-off!" He couldn't wait to throw this skill card on the ground, but then he thought, since it was a one-time consumable, this thing wouldn't occupy his skill slot for too long. Besides, with such a useless effect, it was estimated that no one would want to buy it, so he might as well learn it, anyway, there was no loss.
