Volume 12: Cafe Heroes Chapter 30 Empty Cicada (Part 2)
(So that’s it for now, we’ll take a few more pictures in twelve hours~ I can’t remember exactly what date it is, my sleep disorder is so annoying…)
Using the power of the Great Demon to become invisible is more like folding and covering the surrounding space. Using an abnormal distortion and sensory interference to force the consciousness to change. In short, it is not ordinary invisibility, but something harmful. However, since the players following him could not die, Li Lin did not care so much and followed Cicada Cafe.
But once he passed through the wooden door, looking at the furnishings and characters inside, the figures passing by and the staff, and even the newspapers and paper cups placed around, they all looked so familiar to Li Lin. It was obvious that the outside of the window was a strange alien world, but the inside was like a warm little home on Earth.
"It's really an earth decoration..."
"Earth? Your hometown?"
"Yeah. It should be said that this is where I originally lived. Every time I fall asleep here, I wake up there ."
Looking at the familiar decoration style around him and the players queuing in front of the counter to order coffee, Li Lin really felt like he was dreaming back to Earth.
This place really seemed to be just an ordinary player-run coffee shop similar to Earth. The sign above had a menu in the universal language, which was basically the same as Starbucks on Earth. Several employees were busy inside, wearing uniforms and constantly making coffee and other drinks. It was unknown whether they were players or not.
The space inside is not big, and it looks like a small or medium-sized store, but it gives people a very . This dark-colored architectural style unique to Earth clearly has an exotic feeling on this planet. There are also some NPCs around taking pictures with mobile terminals and sharing them with their friends. It seems that there is no special difference from the ancient world recorded. It should be said that the desire to show off should be the same.
Except for those who were NPCs with curious faces, the rest seemed very comfortable. Those who kept pointing and making noises at the menu in front of the bar were basically players. They were very happy in this coffee shop , chatting about things in the game and things in reality. This coffee shop seemed to be a gathering place for players. There was not much talk about it on the forum, but it was obviously widely circulated in the high-end player circles. Li Lin even saw a few players wearing robes or animal skins coming here to drink coffee and chat.
This means that most of these people left their original planets and arrived directly on this planet through teleportation arrays or spaceships, and came here specifically to find the Cicada Cafe. This shows that the reputation of this place may be unexpectedly widespread.
But these were not what Li Lin paid attention to. The players' performance had nothing to do with him. The players he was concerned about had already found their seats, ordered their food, sat down, and started exchanging information with each other. This was what Li Lin needed. And almost as if in response to Li Lin's thoughts, not long after they sat down, one of the players took a sip of coffee and said to the leader absentmindedly:
"This blended coffee tastes pretty good, but that's about it. It's not as good as the one brewed by my coffee machine at home... But by the way, can you tell me what mission you took?"
"Mission? Of course it's a faction mission, it's pretty good, right? The rewards are generous and there are many gifts, and more importantly, they give you advance payment. You saw it a few days ago, right? They really give you real money and good equipment, so what you have to do is very simple."
"Would you mind telling me what we are going to do now?"
"It's not impossible... but it would be inappropriate to say it out loud if someone overhears, right?"
The leading player sat on a chair, staring at where Li Lin was standing, and his smile gradually faded.
"Although I don't know what happened over there, and I don't know what's nearby, but I can feel ... someone is spying on us over there. Right?"
“…”
Has he been discovered again?
Seeing that person staring at him, Li Lin sighed.
So I can't sneak anymore recently?
With such a skeptical attitude, he lifted the spells around him. The strange magic was released to the surroundings, and the world let out a shrill scream.
Freed from the oppression and tearing of the subspace, Li Lin slowly walked out from a chaotic and disgusting mass of light threads, just like an invisible monster regurgitated from the stomach. He raised his head and looked at the players carrying magic weapons and guns, revealing a friendly smile.
This seemingly friendly smile obviously produced some not-so-good chemical reaction with the space around him that was still reluctant to leave and had even begun to become alienated and insect-like. At least, no matter whether it was the NPC or the player, everyone's face was cold, and they subconsciously took out their weapons and aimed at the subspace that regurgitated him, just like facing a summoning pit that vomited out a great monster.
"Ah, don't worry about it, don't worry about it, it doesn't hurt anyone."
Seeing those people looking like they were facing a great enemy, Li Lin explained with a smile.
"It's a normal overreaction to the pressure of the warp magic. It will be fine after a while. This method of invisibility is just more troublesome to deal with afterwards. But it's just a small matter. See."
Faced with the fearful and cautious looks on these people's faces, Li Lin shook his head and clapped his hands gently.
The entire space that had been transformed into a huge mouth began to split with cracks filled with nightmare atmosphere, and there were also oral and intestines that looked like nightmares. But as Li Lin clapped his hands, the monster that existed in the invisible flames wailed and calmed down, as if nothing had happened and returned to a peaceful state. The space that was forcibly pulled over to wrap around Li Lin returned to its original appearance, allowing the world to return to stability and peace.
The players hiding in the corner looked at each other, then looked uncomfortably at Li Lin who seemed to be smiling without doing anything, and nodded. They slowly put their palms into a deep space, as if they were ready to take out something that could bring surprises.
