My days as a landlord in Gotham
Chapter 26 This Tenant...Smart!
(one)
Before Li Lei could settle the accounts with the system in a hurry, he saw Ted immediately turned into a teddy bear again, and there was a knock on the door.
Li Lei could only curse Ted silently in his heart, and then opened the door with a smile on his face.
There was a thin man standing outside the door, wearing a very retro British three-piece suit, but the grade of this suit looked ordinary, and it was a bit worn out.
The man asked rather cautiously: "Hello, Your Excellency!
I am John Watson who booked a room through the Dimensional B&B system. Are you my host, Mr. Leonardo Lee? "
After hearing the other party's self-reported name, Li Lei immediately matched up with the classic image in his mind.
Dare to visit this time is actually "Sherlock Holmes"
Dr. Watson in the series, the famous detective's super assistant.
As a fan of mystery novels, Li Lei naturally showed a more sincere smile and said, "Welcome to Gotham City as a guest, Dr. Watson.
You can call me Ray, I hope this terrible weather in Gotham City didn't disappoint your first impression.
Come in, would you like a cup of tea? "
"Thank you very much for your hospitality."
Watson came in very gentlemanly.
Although Watson was a little overwhelmed by the decoration of the room, he found the sofa and sat down under Li Lei's guidance.
Watching Li Lei making tea in the open kitchen, Watson said, "Actually, the weather in Gotham is very familiar to me. After all, the weather in London is nothing more than that."
In fact, the sunny weather in Gotham City is indeed comparable to London in the Victorian era, but London has mostly foggy days, while Gotham City has mostly cloudy days.
Li Lei brought over the brewed Earl Gray tea, and carefully prepared fresh milk and sugar, "I think I should thank God for being able to drink such an authentic cup of Earl Gray tea at such a midnight."
"By the way, Dr. Watson, let me show you your room."
Watching Watson drink most of the tea, Li Lei got up and took Watson to his guest room.
Because the things Li Lei bought were surrounded by vampires and had to be discarded, the room was still in the same style as when Ada left last time.
"I'm sorry, because something happened recently, I haven't come to change it yet."
"It doesn't matter, for a former veteran, such a room is already too luxurious."
Li Lei explained to Watson how to use the various equipment in the room, and then explained the use of the various equipment in the bathroom next door.
Finally, Li Lei handed a tablet computer to Watson and said, "I know it will be difficult to fall asleep the first night when I come to a strange place, so it would be great if I have a book to accompany me at this time.
There are some books and newspapers stored here, and I think Dr. Watson can just understand this era. "
After speaking, Li Lei explained to Watson how to use the reading software and newspaper software on the tablet.
After entertaining Watson, Li Lei made some supper in the kitchen and sent it to Hiro Hamada, and incidentally told the news from Ted and Watson's visit.
Hamada Hiroshi temporarily ignored the news of Watson's visit, but analyzed Ted's intelligence.
"Do you think it is possible that the so-called 'behind the scenes' is another system holder who sneaked into this dimension?
Didn't Isabel say that?
That person has very strong magical power, and this stowaway just happened to come from the magic dimension.
Even if he is not the final victor in that dimension, but being able to fight to the end is enough to prove that his power is not weak?
What's more, he came to find the loopholes in the system. It is conceivable that this person's IQ is definitely much higher than yours.
By the way, can you find more information about him in the system?
At least we can't always be beaten in the open, we should know who our opponent is anyway, right? "
Li Lei nodded, and the system was summoned.
But he discovered that the so-called system upgrade was nothing more than a batch of combat-capable props released by the mall. At the same time, the mall actually had a [-]% discount for the entire store, and the discount lasted for as long as three months.
It seems that the system hopes that it can improve its combat effectiveness as soon as possible, so as not to be obliterated by the opponent's system so quickly.
In addition, Li Lei saw his name followed by a [novice protection] on the personal information interface.
s Mark.
After Li Lei clicked on this label, the system gave an explanation.
The general idea is that Li Lei's level in the battle royale mode is too low, so he was given a half-year novice protection period.
During the novice protection period, any system holder's attack against Li Lei will be weakened by 90%; at the same time, the system holder will also suffer a backlash equivalent to ten times the attack power.
At the same time, as long as any system holder approaches Li Lei within 500 meters, the system will automatically alarm and lock the holder's location.
To put it simply, Li Lei has been the system's own son for the past six months, and any other system holders who dare to attack Li Lei will be retaliated by the system.
However, only for half a year.
As for the information of other system holders, the system did not provide any clues, and did not even guarantee that there was only another system holder.
After reading this explanation, Li Lei knew why Ted slipped away so fast. He estimated that after reading this explanation, Li Lei would directly dismember Ted.
However, the system seemed to sense Li Lei's anger, and Li Lei suddenly heard "ding"
A beep, and then the system prompts, "Congratulations to the host!
The [Compensation Gift Package] issued to you by the system
has appeared in your backpack. "
"It's almost there."
Li Lei muttered in a low voice, then opened his backpack.
Then a golden treasure chest, which is very Chinese mobile game style, shines in his backpack, and other than that are some weapons he has kept.
Seeing those odds and ends, Li Lei suddenly remembered that he had once discovered the magical function of the backpack, which is to use it as a portable space.
As a result, when I was facing a vampire, I actually forgot this function.
Also, the undisclosed weapons made by myself and Hiroshi Hamada are actually stuffed in these backpacks. Are you afraid that the police will search them?
Thinking of this, Li Lei felt that he was too unfamiliar with the system, so he decided to practice using the space while returning to the bedroom to rest after supper.
But before that, Li Lei opened the dazzling treasure chest first.
After opening the treasure chest, a skill book and two props appeared.
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the 'Cang Gui Zheng Yi Wolf Skill Book'!
Currently the host has acquired [Wind Control]
with 【Enchantment】
Two skills, the current skills are elementary, and the above skills can be upgraded.
Please refer to the system help file for the specific upgrade method. "
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the 'Scepter of Silence'!
The active skill of the scepter is to prohibit the opponent from releasing spells within 60 minutes; the cooldown time of the skill is 10 minutes.
Note: The use of the same object cannot accumulate the magic ban time. "
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the 'Shimmer Cloak'!
The active skill of the cloak allows the user to enter the invisible state for 30 minutes, and the user will be completely immune to any magic attack in the invisible state; the skill cold zone time is 24 hours. "
It seems that the system is really worried that Li Lei will die in the face of the magician, so the skill books and props sent are very specific.
It's just that Li Lei felt a little ashamed that the system shamelessly borrowed the skills and props from "X-men", "Warcraft" and "Dota", but soon Li Lei was immersed in the skills provided by the system. and props on.
It's just that after Li Lei experimented, he found that the activation of these skills and the use of props were related to his mental data.
Although the system has strengthened his mental strength to more than double that of ordinary people, compared with the consumption of these skills and props, it is a piece of cake.
No wonder wizards and druids look down on ordinary people. In terms of mental strength alone, they do have the strength to crush ordinary people.
Li Lei clicked on the system mall to check the items related to mental power.
He found that the fastest way to improve mental power is related potions, but the potions with the greater increase rate are also the most expensive; and more importantly, even the cheapest mental potion is [-]% discounted, and he can't afford it.
In the end, Li Lei had no choice but to turn his choice to those cultivation methods, but he couldn't afford the cultivation methods with obvious effects. Li Lei could only sigh, those system hosts who could survive to the end in the battle royale mode were not ordinary two So powerful.
Fortunately, in the system mall, there are always a few cheap and relatively cost-effective props to attract the host's consumption, so Li Lei also found a book of cultivation method.
This "Taishang Induction Scripture" is positioned as "Xuan" by the system
Under normal circumstances, a high-level method can cultivate a high-level magician; in a few cases, it may also cultivate an elite magician.
Although Li Lei complained about the loopholes in the system, the magician who smuggled in might be a master level, or even the most terrifying god level; and his biggest possibility is a senior magician who is two levels lower than the master level, and he is still waiting to be obliterated never mind.
Although Li Lei thought so self-destructively, he still followed the method to practice in a regular manner.
The next day, when Li Lei woke up from his practice, he suddenly found that he was in a particularly good state of mind. Does this prove that he is a genius in cultivation?
But when Li Lei opened his data panel, he suddenly found that his mental value was completely the same as last night, the only difference was that a small green upward arrow appeared behind his value.
It seems that my body has indeed sensed something, but it's a pity that what I have gained from cultivation is not enough for my body.
Li Lei sighed slightly, then walked into the kitchen and began to prepare breakfast.
But when Li Lei opened the door, he found that Watson had finished washing and was sitting on the sofa looking at the tablet.
"I'm so sorry, I didn't expect you to wake up so early?"
Li Lei was a little embarrassed, because according to his introduction in the homestay system, his homestay provided three meals.
This is later than the guests, and the breakfast provided here is a bit misleading.
"Mr. Li don't need to blame yourself, I'm just not used to sleeping, so it's early."
Watson replied gently, "The thing that Mr. gave me last night was very interesting. It allowed me to read a lot of books and newspapers overnight, and it also gave me a certain understanding of Gotham City.
I didn't expect that after the society has developed to such a degree, the evils in human nature have not restrained in the slightest.
And what surprised me even more is that the police here are so inactive!
If it is pardonable for the limited ability of the police to solve the case in time, then it is disgusting that these policemen and gangsters have a nest of snakes and rats! "
"This is probably why Gotham is known as the 'City of Sin'."
Li Lei didn't know how to explain this, "Maybe having breakfast will make you feel better?
I wonder if there is anything Dr. Watson does not eat? "
Before Li Lei could settle the accounts with the system in a hurry, he saw Ted immediately turned into a teddy bear again, and there was a knock on the door.
Li Lei could only curse Ted silently in his heart, and then opened the door with a smile on his face.
