In late July, Feng Bujue suddenly stopped logging into the game with the excuse that he was "writing in seclusion."
This sudden and abnormal action of his naturally caused a huge reaction in his circle of friends …
Fortunately, he didn't have many friends.
Xiao Tan was the easiest to fool. Just like the song said, "If you tell a lie twice, he'll take it seriously."
An Yueqin was easy to deal with. After all, she hadn't known Brother Jue for a long time. As long as Feng Bujue kept the quality and delivered the manuscript on time, the editor had nothing to say.
As for Bao Qing, the relationship between him and Brother Jue was very subtle. When the two met alone, the atmosphere was like an underground gang meeting. When they communicated in a crowded environment, it always felt like they were competing with each other's acting skills.
Finally, let's talk about Ruo Yu and Xiao Ling.
The two of them were obviously not easy to fool.
However, Brother Jue soon realized that he didn't need to fool them. Because not long after he got his spiritual sense, he found that Ruo Yu and Xiao Ling both had spiritual senses.
Feng Bujue knew that since he could detect their abilities, they must be able to sense his as well. Therefore, he didn't ask any questions, nor did he explain. This meant that … no one should mention anything about spiritual senses. It was up to them to decide when to reveal it.
…
August 4th, eight o 'clock in the morning.
Like usual, Feng Bujue went for a ten-kilometer jog before returning home.
"Phew …" After he pushed the door open and entered the house, he let out a long sigh of relief and closed the door behind him.
"Hmm … My physical fitness has improved by leaps and bounds recently … If this goes on, I can go out and help the weak …" He muttered as he changed out of his shoes and habitually walked to the bathroom.
Three seconds later, just as he turned the corner of the living room, he caught a glimpse of something in the corner of his eyes.
"Hey …" His first reaction was to turn around and question Arthas who was on the sofa. "What happened to my gaming pod …"
The reason Brother Jue asked that was because … in the half an hour that he had been out for his run, the gaming hub that he originally had at home had been replaced with a new one that was bigger in size and had a slightly different design.
"This is Woody's idea." Arthas stuck out its tongue and licked its lips. "I've already gotten rid of the original one and replaced it with a new one, meow."
"You should have at least asked me beforehand …" Feng Bujue muttered.
"There's nothing to ask," Arthas replied. "It won't cost a single cent. Standard cabin will be changed to luxury cabin. Moreover, it's a one-stop service of moving, replacing, and installing. You have no reason to refuse. " She paused for a moment. "Because I know you don't like trouble, so I got it done quickly when you went out for a run, meow."
"According to what you said, I should praise your service and give you a good review …" Feng Bujue narrowed his eyes and continued.
"That's not necessary." Arthas rubbed her face with her claws and said, "Giving you the luxury cabin is also to let you play better in the game and perform better in the gambling." She raised her claws and pointed at the gaming pod. "As the saying goes … if a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools. You're almost level 50, so it's only right to give you some support in terms of hardware, meow. "
"Haha …" Feng Bujue laughed. "Actually, Woody saw that I haven't been online for a long time, so he used this method to remind me …"
"Yes," Arthas replied. "And he had already predicted that you would say this with a smile, so he asked me to pass on this message to you after you finished saying it — 'Feng Bujue, although you're gifted, your foundation is not right … With your characteristics, when you're practicing the Hidden Heavenly Book of Taoism, you mustn't be rash. Otherwise, you'll run the risk of going mad.
For the past half a month, you've become more and more capable. Now, you should slow down your progress, so that you can proceed step by step.
So, I suggest that you take a three-day break and level up to level 50 in the game.
Hehehe … '"
"Why do you even have to repeat 'hehehe' …" Feng Bujue continued.
"He was the one who said 'word for word,' so I did it. Meow ~" Arthas replied. "Alright, I've passed on the message. I'm going back to sleep. Don't bother me, hah … meow meow …" As she spoke, she was already yawning … curling up her body and tail.
…
Half an hour passed quickly.
Feng Bujue took a shower and ate a self-made nutritious breakfast. Then, he eagerly lay down in the gaming pod.
To be honest, he was still very happy to receive a new pod for free. After all, the interior of the luxury cabin was more spacious and comfortable. It also came with an expensive air filtration system, humidity adjustment system, and temperature control system.
Besides, he hadn't been online for a long time. For a more playful … oh no … professional writer who liked to collect material, the game itself was also very attractive.

After a familiar voice prompt, Feng Bujue entered the log-in lobby.
As usual, he opened the in-game mailbox first.
Since he hadn't logged in for a long time, his mailbox had accumulated a large amount of mail. Thankfully, Brother Jue was used to this. He easily dealt with all the mail that he had received for the past half a month.
"Okay … Let me see …" Then, Feng Bujue opened the social tab. "Wow … There are quite a lot of people online on a weekday morning …"
That was a waste of time. Most of his friends were professional gamers. Their job was to play games, so it was normal for them to be online on a weekday morning.
"Hmm … I'm the only one online at Underworld Frontline," Brother Jue said. "Okay …"
At that moment, he suddenly realized … he was the one who did not focus on his job. Therefore, he decided to play a Solo Nightmare Mode to calm himself down.
Considering the fact that Brother Jue's character attributes did not change that much after the last scenario, there was no need to go into detail about it to prevent it from being a filler.
In any case, after he familiarized himself with the controls, he entered the queue for Solo Survival Mode (Nightmare Mode).
