Chapter 85
The server-wide announcement instantly sparked heated discussions in the forum.
After all, if “Demon World” was updating this kind of thing, they wouldn’t be able to sleep!
[Why didn’t you release such good stuff earlier——!!]
[Urgent, urgent, who is it? Dude, your progress is so fast?? We haven’t even started yet, and you’re already having the main course (crying)]
[Everyone, look at the player page, a new achievement system has been added!]
Countless demons hurriedly opened their panels and saw the new page added to “Demon World.”
Clicking on it, they saw an initial interaction card.
[OMG, my initial card is A-Ran’s Adventurer card! This big cloak looks so good, and under the cloak, um… the waistline of his tucked-in shirt looks so good hehehe! Hiss, I was warned not to make inappropriate comments, where is this inappropriate? O皿O#]
[Lol, my initial card is A-Ran’s Seashell Collecting card, wearing a white shirt and rolled-up pants, collecting seashells, the water is full of fluorescent jellyfish, so dreamy]
[Mine is A-Ran drying clothes on the sunny hut’s terrace. So warm and refreshing, who understands, I have the illusion that A-Ran will turn around and look at me in the next second.]
As everyone discussed and shared in the forum, they quickly discovered that the initial interaction card was randomly given from three cards: “Adventurer,” “Seashell Collecting,” and “Drying Clothes Together.”
All three were common cards, but to unlock the card stories, they still needed to pay a certain number of points.
Of course, under the impact of the new “Demon World” event, countless demons didn’t hesitate and directly spent their points to unlock the card stories.
Then they found that the originally static A-Ran on the card suddenly moved, and they could watch a 10-second short daily story interaction.
For example, the “Adventurer” card showed A-Ran just defeating a Godzilla beast in a daily task, landing neatly, and patting his sleeves.
[OMG, our A-Ran is so skilled!? He can defeat a Godzilla beast alone?! I’m so worried! What if he gets hurt!]
[Damn, I want to play the Godzilla beast, I also want to be… uh, uh, I was warned for this too?]
[“Demon World’s” clothing designs are really good-looking, but you’re telling me I can only watch it 10 times after spending money? I have to pay 100 times to make it a permanent card? No, I think you’re really…]
Although countless demons indulged in repeatedly experiencing the new card interactions, they quickly found that “Demon World’s” money-grabbing style remained the same, making them involuntarily curse while spending money.
You dare to make it non-permanent after I paid!?
The fact that completing several limited tasks could collect the other two initial cards that weren’t randomly given naturally increased the demons’ online time rapidly.
Who wouldn’t want to collect all the A-Rans!
[But what does Pajama A-Ran look like TWT Oh heavens, I really want to see it! Just one glance!!]
[I can’t imagine how cute A-Ran is in pajamas, show me quickly——! (Shaking “Demon World” frantically)]
But the more they couldn’t get it, the more they wanted it. After countless demons quickly maxed out the initial card pool, this limited “Pajama Card” undoubtedly became the hottest topic.
And this unknown demon became the most hated being in history.
“As expected of ‘Demon World’… how long has it been since the revenue was this high?”
“Indeed, it feels like the update progress can be sped up a lot.”
It was much faster to target all players than just one race, right?
Although in the development team, Tao Shu and the other demons wiped their sweat, feeling that the “Demon World” main consciousness was amazing, coming up with such a despicable… ahem, clever method.
Lin Ran didn’t know about the new updates on the “Demon World” player side. He simply held Ossi and wiped his face, only to find that Shao Mian hadn’t moved at all, but had been staring at him the whole time.
Little Feather, being held by Shao Mian, hadn’t washed his face or brushed his teeth and looked up at him with a wronged expression.
“What are you doing, Yuanbao?”
Lin Ran looked up, feeling a little uncomfortable being stared at by Shao Mian, thinking that there was something on his face.
“Cough, observing how to brush his teeth and wash his face.”
Being caught staring, Shao Mian withdrew his gaze guiltily and grabbed Little Feather to start working.
Although his clumsy movements made Lin Ran feel that Little Feather was having a hard time.
“Be gentler, Little Feather’s face is very delicate, what if you rub it red? And the water temperature…”
Lin Ran quickly couldn’t stand it anymore and directly reached out to test the water temperature. When their fingertips touched, Shao Mian unconsciously wagged his tail and looked down at Lin Ran.
Completely unaware that Shao Mian was distracted, Lin Ran took the towel and carefully wiped Little Feather’s face, especially the unhealed scar, with exceptional gentleness.
After Little Feather obediently had his face wiped by A-Ran, he wanted to kiss A-Ran too.
“Cheep!” “Mew…” The other little guys couldn’t help it either, asking if they could also have a kiss.
“No, only one kiss per day. Tomorrow is Sootball’s turn, the day after tomorrow is Snowball’s, and then Little Feather’s.”
Lin Ran directly held down the cubs and set the rules with a smile. Otherwise, they would all be fighting for it every day.
At this moment, Sootball suddenly started to look forward to tomorrow.
And Shao Mian watched as Lin Ran finished taking care of the little cubs, while he hadn’t even washed up yet.
“Towel.”
So, after a reminder, Lin Ran was surprised to find that Yuanbao had actually prepared a wet towel, and the temperature was just right.
“Thank you.”
Lin Ran took the towel, frowned slightly, closed his eyes, and quickly washed his face. The black hair on his forehead was slightly lifted, revealing his fair forehead, still pleasing to the eye.
Shao Mian inexplicably felt that this scene was just as cute as the little cubs washing their faces.
No wonder he could patiently wash their faces one by one, it was probably because just looking at them made him feel happy.
Although after helping to carry the cubs back to the bedroom, Shao Mian watched as Lin Ran still couldn’t resist and kissed each of his fluffy creatures goodnight.
After all, the clean little cubs were all fragrant, their fur clean and fluffy, squeezing together and staring at their guardian coquettishly, who could resist?
Lin Ran felt that he had shown great restraint by not kissing them bald.
He wished he could hold one in his arms and sleep with him every night.
After a while of “enjoyment,” Lin Ran realized that Yuanbao was still waiting for him outside the door and felt a little embarrassed.
“Cough, after they fall asleep, I’ll go find you a set of pajamas, a towel, and a new toothbrush.”
Although Yuanbao had suddenly transformed into human form, Lin Ran quickly adapted after the initial surprise and even found it quite novel.
It was the first time he had talked to someone for so long in the game.
“Okay.”
Shao Mian patiently watched Lin Ran settle the little guys into bed, then turned off the lights and went out to get him a set of daily necessities.
He felt that “Demon World” had never been so interesting before.
Even though it was just ordinary daily life.
Yuanbao’s unusually obedient reaction inexplicably reminded Lin Ran of the comment in the notes: “He is currently very docile towards you.”
He was really docile, just like a large beast that had retracted its fangs.
And when Shao Mian came out in his pajamas, Lin Ran was also unexpectedly distracted for a few seconds. This oversized dark-colored pajama set was still a bit small on Shao Mian.
But Yuanbao was indeed a natural clothes hanger, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, coupled with his tall stature, even pajamas looked like custom-made clothes on him.
“What are you thinking about?”
Shao Mian couldn’t help but ask, seeing Lin Ran spacing out.
“Thinking that you look good.”
Lin Ran didn’t hide it and said it with a smile.
“I’ll take you back to my hometown to play when I have the chance. Grandma will definitely want to make you clothes.”
Grandma was also very good at making clothes when she was young.
And Grandma would probably like Yuanbao’s looks and physique, he looked like he could work hard in the fields?
Being praised by Lin Ran with a smile, Shao Mian pursed his lips and remained calm on the surface, while his mind couldn’t help but race.
Actually, “Demon World” was extremely strict about regulating interactive content, and Shao Mian was quite satisfied with this.
This meant that “Demon World” valued Lin Ran’s existence very much, so if other players tried to do anything inappropriate to him as an NPC, they would be immediately stopped and punished by “Demon World.”
This was, of course, a very responsible action.
“Goodnight, Yuanbao.”
Lin Ran, confirming that Shao Mian could just fit on the bed in the second bedroom, waved goodbye. He didn’t know that Shao Mian was actually thinking about a very serious question.
Since he had to get permission to interact, what would happen if he asked for a goodnight kiss like the cubs? =.=
[Ding——Insufficient Affection Level will result in rejection and a decrease in Affection Level! Please do not attempt this!]
The prompt from “Demon World” quickly appeared, instantly extinguishing the big lion’s thoughts and making Shao Mian look away unnaturally.
So what Affection Level was considered enough?
However, as night fell and the quest was successfully completed, the limited edition pajama card was successfully activated.
It was a picture of Lin Ran carefully wiping his face with a towel, the slightly oversized beige pajama sleeves sliding down, revealing his snow-white wrists.
The young human, after wiping his face, looked up at the card with slightly widened eyes, as if someone had called him and he was looking up at them.
It was just a simple face-wiping action, but it inexplicably made Shao Mian feel incredibly charmed.
After carefully studying it back and forth ten times, he was slapped in the face by the payment prompt that popped up from “Demon World.”
[Free views have been used up! Please choose whether to purchase a permanent card…]
“…Tsk.”
Without even finishing reading, Shao Mian frowned and frantically tapped confirm a few times, spending money like water to make it permanent before continuing to study it with satisfaction.
Strange, why was this so interesting?
He couldn’t get enough of it.
This crappy game should have more of these cards so that he could seriously study the strangeness within them!
While complaining about “Demon World” in his heart, Shao Mian quickly discovered the new achievement system and collected the other three common cards in one go.
Cute, simply too cute.
Unreasonably cute!
Whether it was the scene of Lin Ran catching a beautiful seashell on the “Seashell Collecting” card, or the scene of Lin Ran hanging the washed, soap-scented clothes on the terrace to dry in the sun on the “Drying Clothes Together” card… every single one was adorable.
Was he really obsessed?
At this moment, Shao Mian rarely doubted if there was something wrong with him.
He couldn’t sleep at all late at night, but after opening the forum, Shao Mian quickly discovered that there were countless others who were as “seriously ill” as him…
And because the entire forum had been searching for the owner of the “Pajama A-Ran” card to no avail, some demons began to suspect whether this thing was just a gimmick or a bug created by “Demon World.”
Otherwise, how could there be no news at all!
Impossible, this was absolutely impossible!
How could any demon resist showing off!
[Admin Test Account: Not a bug, it has indeed appeared.]
So a new reply quickly appeared in the forum.
[Ah!？？] [Please, big shot, share the card! ] [It’s not fake!? How did you get it? Please give us a tutorial! Urgent, urgent]
[My friend said he’ll die if he can’t get this card!]
The forum’s card-begging army, which had calmed down a bit, exploded again.
But before all the demons could beg for a “tutorial,” this test account, which often appeared and disappeared mysteriously, replied again.
[No.]
How could he casually show his pajamas to others?
Especially since they were so good-looking.
Shao Mian replied coldly.
The demons of the entire Demon World: ?
Why did you even show up if you’re not going to share!
Which bastard was holding this tester account?!
