A month ago, Zhang Heng discovered that he had an extra 24 hours in his day.
The first thing that changed was his watch. It was a starfish automatic III mechanical watch made by Tiansuo, Switzerland. It had been given to him by his parents in Iceland on his 18th birthday.
He had placed an order on Taobao perfunctorily, the seller had delivered the goods, and the address had been filled in by the wrong class.
..
Zhang Heng placed his finger on the keyboard and typed the first paragraph of the novel. His writing skills had already reached level 3, and he had already finalized the outline, so what happened next was completely natural.
Just as he finished writing the story that happened in the cafe, someone suddenly knocked on the door.
Zhang Heng stood up and walked into the living room. He peeked through the peephole.
He saw the two figures standing outside the door.
— Ed Wilson and Bell Brett.
In a corner behind the army captain and the Explorer stood a shy, short-haired young man. Unlike the first time they met, this time he wasn’t wearing just a pair of shorts, probably because he was visiting a friend, he was wearing a hoodie.
Zhang Heng opened the door. “Welcome.”
“We received a letter from you asking for our help,”Bell said with a smile, “We rushed over immediately, but I have to say, this place is quite mysterious. I just had a cup of coffee, and when I woke up, I was already at the manor’s entrance.”
“I was about the same,”ed immediately replied, “But my experience was even more bizarre. I still remember that I was very sick, and after I used all my strength to leave the last sentence of my life, I lost consciousness. When I woke up again, I found myself lying on the ground, and there was a pit beside me, which looked like my grave. Then, a man stood in front of me and handed me your letter, telling me that he could send me over. Oh, right, he also gave me a set of clothes.”
The short-breasted man was as silent as ever. He didn’t say a word, but after the army captain finished speaking, he nodded, indicating that his experience was similar to his.
After the others finished speaking, Bale looked at Zhang Heng again and said straightforwardly, “Alright, let’s continue reminiscing during dinner. First, tell us what you need us to do for you.”
“It’s very simple. I’m writing a novel, and I need you to help me finish it,”Zhang Heng said.
“A novel? Does that mean my life chicken soup can finally reach its destination?”The army captain’s eyes lit up when he heard that. He rolled up his sleeves and looked like he was ready to do something big.
Bell and the others stayed at the manor for about a week. With their help, Zhang Heng finished writing the first unit of his new novel. This unit was based on his experience in a beginner’s dungeon. Of course.., on this basis, Zhang Heng also did some artistic work to make it more popular and convenient to read.
After Bale, Ed, and the short-breasted man left, the second wave of visitors knocked on Zhang Heng’s door.
The Tokyo Girl, Ameko, who wore a short skirt and had tiger teeth when she smiled, walked into the living room with the aquatic shop owner, Toya Yosuke, who looked like he deserved a slap in the face.
“Sorry to bother you, Zhang Sang.”Ameko bowed with a red face and said, “My father and I won a mysterious travel prize, but we didn’t know you were here until we got on the plane.”
“Boy, are you the one who played all these tricks? I felt that there was something wrong with the grand prize at that time. I want to warn you not to have any strange thoughts about my daughter!”Toya Yoshike noticed that Ameko’s expression was a little strange halfway through his words, he immediately changed his tone. “But, if you can beat me in a race again, it’s not that I can’t accept it…”
“Let’s talk about the race another time. Actually, there’s something I need your help with this time.”Zhang Heng bowed back to Ameko.
“What is it? You’ve helped us before. It would be great if we could help you as well.”Toya wanted to put on a show when he heard Zhang Heng’s request, however, AMEKO had already agreed to it.
“Actually, I’ve been writing a novel recently, but I’ve encountered some difficulties in the process.”
“Really? You know how to write a novel?”Ameko was pleasantly surprised. “But you said you’ve encountered some difficulties? What kind of difficulties? My father and I don’t know how to write a novel either. We don’t know if we can really help you.”
“We can, as long as you can do as I say,”Zhang Heng said.
..
The time flow of 1:2400 made every minute in the real world feel exceptionally long.
Zhang Heng did not use up all the time in the dungeon.
He had already finished writing the novel on the 2571st day.
Around 2460 days later, he sent away the last wave of visitors. However, he was not alone because one of the visitors from before had chosen to stay.
It was also with that person’s company that Zhang Heng finished writing the end of the novel.
When he typed the last word on the keyboard, consul returned to his room.
“You’ve finished writing your story?”
Zhang Heng nodded.
“But you know that you can’t take anything from the dungeon with you, right? No matter whether you print the story or write it on paper, you can’t take it out of the dungeon.”
Zhang Heng didn’t say anything. He only took out the -LEdwardwarUSB usb drive ] from his pocket.
This F grade item was used to make the user’s IP untraceable when it was inserted into the computer. However, many people had neglected the storage function of the USB drive itself.
Although its quality was very low and only had an F grade, it was still a genuine game prop.
And any game prop could be brought out of the dungeon.
Zhang Heng copied the novel he had just finished writing into the USB flash drive. Eight gigabytes of storage space was already a bit small for today, but fortunately, it was enough to hold a novel.
“As expected, the seemingly unsolvable problems are often hidden in those inconspicuous corners,”kanser sighed, “I have no more questions. I’ll remind you one last time to be careful of Kronos. He hopes to use you to plot against the Master of the city under the ice. If he finds out what you’re doing, he’ll definitely try to stop you.”
“It doesn’t matter. I’ve already found my messenger. She’s a completely invisible person. She’s harmless to everyone and has no offensive power. No one will notice her or make things difficult for her, and she’ll help me finish the rest after I die,”Zhang Heng said.
“It seems like you’ve already arranged everything.”Kanser glanced at the figure by the window. The figure had been standing there quietly like a floor lamp, not attracting any attention at all, however, Kanser knew that if he showed any hostility toward Zhang Heng, even if it was just a hint, the figure would immediately raise the shotgun at his feet and put a few holes in his head.
“Since that’s the case, then I have nothing more to say. I’ll leave the remaining 329 days of this dungeon to the two of you.”Kanser whistled and turned to leave, before he left, he even closed the door behind him.
