Chapter 62: Selina and Nanoe

“What you mean is…” Selina asked with a frown.

Nanoe explained, “As you’ve also seen, a woman’s intuition tells me that Leng Yan’s thoughts are the same as yours and mine.”

“That’s why we can cooperate with Leng Yan to help us become stronger. Besides, the chosen one’s walkie-talkie, Rover, left it in the living room, and we can also use it to learn more about this world.”

Selina replied, “I can understand using the ’chosen one’s walkie-talkie,’ but isn’t cooperating with Leng Yan too risky? If… I mean… if she doesn’t like Master, then what? You have to know that the relationships between Survivors aren’t as friendly as we think.”

Nanoe shook her head. “No, I think it’s the opposite. Like the Dark Lord once said, the higher the level you reach, the more everyone realizes that killing each other isn’t the right path to survival in this world. On the contrary, we must cooperate and help one another.”

“Although I don’t know why we were brought to this world, there’s definitely some meaning behind it. Besides that, Leng Yan also said she wants everyone to unite rather than become enemies.”

Hearing that, Selina nodded lightly and said with a smile, “Good! Then let’s work hard together. I don’t want to become Master’s burden either.”

As she spoke, she lightly tapped Rover’s nose with her fingertip, blooming into a bright smile like a sunflower in the sun, completely different from the gloomy, icy-as-a-glacier expression she’d had just moments ago.

Nanoe and Selina hugged Rover for a long time. Then Nanoe stood up, and seeing that Selina was still holding him, she pulled her away.

Selina struggled, crying as she said, “Don’t… just a little longer, okay?”

Nanoe frowned. “Are you a cat? Don’t cling to him like that.”

“Huhuhu… just a little longer.”

“No!” Nanoe sighed, dragging Selina out of the bedroom.

In another room, they began using the items Rover had left for them.

Looking at the pile of items, Selina glanced at Nanoe and asked softly, “How do we use them?”

Nanoe rubbed her chin, thinking for a long while, then said, “We don’t need to use our evolution medicine for now. Rover can upgrade anything. If we let him upgrade this kind of medicine, the effect will be greater.”

“We’ll use [Random Card], [Weapon Card], and [Combat Suit] first. Selina, you’ll take the melee role, so you use the Mid-grade card. As for me, I only need to stand in the back and attack, so using a Low-grade card is enough.”

“Heh?!” Selina was a little surprised and immediately said, “Like that…”

“Don’t worry.” Nanoe comforted Selina. “Like I said, Rover can upgrade anything. We’re only using these temporarily. Later, Rover will definitely upgrade them.”

Selina felt a bit more at ease, then immediately used the cards and the free attribute points Rover had left behind.

Rover had left 15 free attribute points for each of them, which was quite a lot for them.

After a while, Nanoe and Selina were wearing a tight-fitting suit that looked like a pilot suit from gundam movies. There was also a circle with a small button on the chest.

“This is really convenient.” Selina, wearing a white combat suit, lightly tapped the button on her chest, and the suit immediately vanished, revealing her normal clothes underneath.

“It doesn’t feel uncomfortable at all. On the contrary, after putting it on, it even has temperature regulation and strength enhancement functions.”

Nanoe felt the same. She gently clenched her fist, sensing that not only her mental power but also her physical power had increased a lot.

Nanoe said, “A Low-grade combat suit adds 10 points to each type of attribute. A Mid-grade combat suit adds 15 points to each type of attribute. This thing is truly amazing.”

“Wow!” Selina shouted. “Nanoe, look at this!”

Selina held a Foil sword. It had the slender, long shape of a rapier, the steel blade bright as a mirror, tapering down to a chillingly sharp point.

The spine of the blade formed a neat straight line, reflecting light into streaks of icy blue-silver.

The grip was wrapped in dark brown, ending in a round pommel like a golden pearl. The handguard curled in black-and-gold metal, cradling the hilt like delicate hooked bands, beautiful yet radiating danger.

….

Judicator Sword

Rank: C14 | Grade: High-grade

Special Effect 1: The sword wielder gains 25 points of [Physique]. Even if placed in a backpack, this effect still persists.

Special Effect 2: There is a 1% chance to trigger the [Judgment] effect, instantly eliminating the target.

….

“Ah!” Nanoe also jolted when she saw the sword in Selina’s hand and its description.

“Terrifying,” Nanoe said. “Not only can it give you 25 Physique, it also has a 1% chance to instantly eliminate the target. Selina, you’re really lucky.”

“Hahaha…” Selina laughed. “I just thought this sword was really good. As for the effects, they seem random. You’re right, I’m very lucky. Nanoe, try using your weapon selection card. You want to use a gun, right?”

Nanoe nodded, then used the weapon selection card. Naturally, she still chose a gun.

She browsed for a long time, then her eyes landed on a handgun.

Nanoe thought for a moment, then immediately chose the one that caught her attention.

A pistol appeared in her hand, classic in style and heavy. The cold aura of metal spreading across her palm made her like it even more.

Selina stepped closer, looking at the gun with a bit of confusion.

Nanoe smiled and opened the gun’s info panel for Selina to see.

…

Magic Pistol

Rank: D32 | Grade: Mid-grade

Special Effect 1: +5 [Physique]; +10 [Spirit]

Special Effect 2: Uses the user’s magic as ammunition, increasing the power of magic bullets by 20%. After the user’s [Spirit] energy is depleted, it can use normal bullets, priced at 20 silver coins per bullet.

….

Selina smiled. “Nanoe, this really suits you. You also have the [Fire] skill. This will definitely let you perform at your best.”

Nanoe smiled and nodded. “I hope so.”

After they finished preparing, Nanoe and Selina checked their personal status panels and nodded in satisfaction.

[Nanoe: Physique 15 (+15), Spirit 44 (+20)]

[Selina: Physique 44 (+40), Spirit 15 (+15)]

Selina looked at Nanoe and asked with a frown, “Now, what do we need to do next?”

Nanoe was about to say something when a ringing sound echoed.

Ring! Ring! Ring!

Nanoe and Selina both looked toward the ’chosen one’s walkie-talkie.’ They looked at each other, as if reaching a shared decision.

Nanoe stepped closer to the walkie-talkie and lightly pressed the red button. A familiar masculine voice sounded out.

“Ay yo! Bro, how’s it going?”

Nanoe immediately recognized Dark Lord’s voice and replied at once, “Sorry, Rover is in the middle of using the [Power Exploration Card]. He probably won’t wake up for a while. I’m his [Tenant]. If you want to see him, then…”

“Ah! Are you his woman?” Dark Lord laughed. “Just from your voice, I can already tell you’re a very beautiful and gentle woman.”

Nanoe replied politely, “Thank you.”

After all, Dark Lord was very friendly and had helped Rover quite a lot, so she had a good impression of him.

“Is there anyone else in his room besides you?”

Hearing that question, Nanoe felt a bit uneasy. After all, information about where they lived wasn’t exactly top secret, but giving it to a stranger she’d never met was still a little risky.

“Hahahaha…” Dark Lord laughed loudly. “Don’t worry, I won’t harm you. On the contrary, I’ve got a Fortuitous Encounter for you. This isn’t about him, it’s about the [Tenants].”

“I’ve got a few invitation cards for [Tenants], limited to level 3 or lower. You can ask Rover for his opinion. Send me your IP, and I’ll send you the invitation information.”

Hearing that, Nanoe let go of her suspicion and sent her IP to Dark Lord.

A moment later, a message from Dark Lord came through. After reading it, she frowned and shared it with Selina.

…

[Invitation to participate in the Hide-and-Seek game]

Target: Tenant
