Abyss Game: I am covered with cheats

Xu Tong had indeed suspected that someone in the team might be lying.

But he really didn't expect that, apart from himself, not a single word from the remaining three was true!

However, it's understandable, after all, everyone has their own side quests. They have to complete the main quest, complete the side quests, guard against the attacks of the guardians, and also find out who the guardian is. With all these factors intertwined, the possibility of telling the truth is indeed not very high.

Arriving at the changing room on the first floor, a huge question mark floated in mid-air.

Pei Wen Yu reached out and touched the question mark, and three identical items immediately floated into the air in the changing room.

Presented in front of them were three identical long dresses. Although they didn't know what the material was, it felt as smooth as silk to the touch.

The icy coldness of the dress made it incredibly comfortable to wear in the summer.

The craftsmanship of the long dress was also impeccable. Even in the context of the castle's background story, it would probably be quite valuable.

This time, Pei Wen Yu didn't directly throw all the questions to Xu Tong, but took two steps forward and began to examine the clothes in front of her.

Seeing this, Xu Tong asked, "Do you know anything about this?"

Pei Wen Yu nodded, "I have some understanding of fabrics, but only to a certain extent. It's still quite difficult to completely identify the authenticity. Let me take a look."

After observing for a while, Pei Wen Yu thought for a moment and pointed to one of the garments.

"This one is a fake. I can't identify the remaining two. The materials and the sewing techniques are exactly the same. I really can't tell them apart."

Being able to recognize one as fake was already Pei Wen Yu's best effort, after all, Jiang Yi and Long Ruiquan next door were completely relying on luck to guess.

"Let me take a look." Xu Tong took a step forward and observed the three long dresses in front of him.

He first used his eyes to look, but he didn't see any problems with the three long dresses. Xu Tong's eyes also didn't react, presumably because they didn't notice any suspicious points either.

Xu Tong also reached out and used his fingers to feel the delicate fabric of the three long dresses, but he didn't feel anything special from beginning to end.

Getting closer, Xu Tong sniffed the scent. From the perspective of the scent, there wasn't much difference either. It felt like there was basically no difference.

"Hiss… this is a bit difficult…" Xu Tong frowned slightly. His vision, touch, and smell didn't reveal the authenticity of the dresses in front of him. He had to admit that the imitation was really perfect.

Seeing this, Pei Wen Yu asked, "Then, what are you going to do?"

Xu Tong thought for a while, "It seems like there's only one way left."

Pei Wen Yu: "Are you going to give up?"

Xu Tong: "I'm going to taste it."

After a second of愣, Pei Wen Yu rubbed her ears with her palm, "Say that again? I didn't hear you clearly."

Xu Tong's expression was firm, "I said I'm going to taste the flavor of these three long dresses."

Although Pei Wen Yu's expression was still indifferent, Xu Tong could also see from her slightly dilated pupils how shocked Pei Wen Yu was right now.

She only felt that her worldview had been impacted.

Xu Tong didn't hesitate. Taking advantage of Pei Wen Yu's shocked state, he got closer and stuck out his tongue, licking the surface of one of the long dresses.

"Hmm… neither salty nor bland, truly delicious."

Pei Wen Yu was a little speechless. Why are you even commenting on it?

After licking one, Xu Tong then came to another long dress and tasted the flavor of the second long dress.

"Hmm… there's a slight difference. This one is a little sweeter, it feels more like a flavor that children would like."

Coming to the last one, Xu Tong did the same, feeling the taste of the third long dress.

"Hmm, the taste of this long dress is like a boy's dormitory, in a basin under a certain boy's bed, soaked in foot-washing water for three months."

Although Pei Wen Yu could still maintain her aloof expression, listening to Xu Tong's extremely vivid description, she still covered her face with her hands.

"Please give me a pair of ears that haven't heard you say that…"

At this moment, Xu Tong suddenly opened his eyes.

[Your tongue has fully tasted the flavors of the three long dresses. By comprehensively analyzing their tastes, you quickly deduced that the long dress that Pei Wen Yu identified as a fake is the real product]

"This one," Xu Tong reached out and pointed to the long dress that Pei Wen Yu had previously thought was a fake, "This one is real."

After hearing this, Pei Wen Yu walked to the long dress, reached out her hand, and chose this one.

Xu Tong was stunned for a moment, "You're not hesitating at all?"

Pei Wen Yu asked, "Is there anything I need to hesitate about?"

"Didn't you think this one was a fake just now?"

If it were someone else, if something they had identified as a fake was judged by someone else to be genuine, they would more or less raise questions, but Pei Wen Yu had no objections at all. Even though she already thought it was a fake, after hearing Xu Tong's judgment, she still reached out and took this long dress down.

"Because you've already proven your strength. You're better than me in terms of appraisal," Pei Wen Yu said calmly.

"I believe your judgment."

The two unfolded the long dress they had obtained and approached to check its item information.

「Name: Baroque Fish Maw Ribbon Long Dress (Genuine)」

「Type: Story Item (Cannot be taken out of the instance)」

「Quality: Excellent」

「Carrying Requirements: None」

「Effect: Can provide progress worth: 170000 game currency at the final settlement」

「Evaluation: A long dress with considerable collectible value, even today it can still be worn by women, perfectly embodying the artistic style of the Baroque period」

This dress is worth 170,000!

It's even more expensive than the silver candlestick that the Duck Boss gave him in the restaurant!

It even adds up to a total value of 300,000 game currency with the wealth Xu Tong had previously obtained.

Directly advancing the main quest progress to one-third!

"This dress is too expensive," Xu Tong said with emotion, "If I could take it out and exchange it for the game currency I can hold, it would be equal to three thousand yuan."

Pei Wen Yu did not answer this sentence, but put away the long dress and continued to explore the first floor of the castle, "Let's keep looking. We're still short of nearly 700,000 game currency to complete the main quest."

Xu Tong followed behind her, suddenly a little curious about what Pei Wen Yu was hiding in the conversation on the stairs just now.

"Is it convenient for me to ask you a question?"

Pei Wen Yu turned her head, "What do you want to ask? I will decide whether or not to answer based on the content of your question."

Xu Tong nodded, and after careful consideration, he asked the question he wanted to ask.

"Then, if I said I wanted to know what your side quest is, would you tell me?"

Pei Wen Yu suddenly stopped and turned to look at Xu Tong behind her.

"Do you really want to know? You might regret it.

"Because my side quest is a task that is destined to be impossible to complete from the beginning. I didn't plan to complete this task anyway."

Xu Tong's curiosity suddenly came up, "Then what is your side quest?"

Pei Wen Yu suddenly reached out her hand.

「Player: Pei Wen Yu has shared a side quest with you」

「Side Quest in Progress: You are a vengeful avenger. Your only goal is to meet the space dominator and carry out an effective attack. Anyone who knows your goal will become your companion. If anyone completes this side quest, it will be considered a completed task」

Xu Tong: "I'm not curious anymore. Can the side quest be taken back?"
