Game Master: Infinite Amplification of Everything - Chapter 11 - Lin Mumu

“What the heck did I just hear? Did Krees actually say he couldn’t quite see through Li Xiaoyao?”

“Does that mean Li Xiaoyao’s strength is on par with Krees?!”

“Hahaha, no way! How could that be possible…”

“Li Xiaoyao is amazing! Truly the pride of our novice village! Incredible!”

“Unbelievable, he actually completed the quest and even got praised by Krees…”

“So, according to Krees, Li Xiaoyao completed the quest?? Hahaha, where’s that guy who was about to log out?”

“…”

The players who heard Krees’s words were all visibly shocked.

Li Xiaoyao really completed the quest!

And he even received praise from Krees.

Simply unbelievable!

……

[Shock points +23]

[Shock points +2]

[Shock points +32]

[Shock points +21]

……

Chen Fei watched as the shock points kept appearing, a slight smile on his face.

Then, he took out a red crystal from his backpack.

He handed the red crystal to Krees!

As Krees accepted the red crystal, the system’s voice chimed in.

[Quest completed!]

[You completed the quest, and Krees gave you a piece of green equipment, ‘gliding boots.’ You triggered tenfold amplification and received advanced yellow equipment, ‘frostwalker boots’!]

[Equipment Name]: Frostwalker Boots

Grade: Advanced Yellow Equipment

Value: Speed +321

Magical Effect: Ice Floe! Allows walking on water!

Can it be dropped: Yes!

Sell: The recycling value is 20 equipment upgrade sands!

……

Chen Fei looked at the equipment in his backpack.

He felt a bit of joy in his heart.

It’s only the second day.

And he already had three pieces of yellow equipment!

Much faster than before.

The equipment and levels he earned on his own felt truly rewarding!

Krees, holding the red crystal, looked excited.

Chen Fei knew he was eager to start crafting equipment.

So, he wisely said, “Mr. Krees, I’ll take my leave now!”

“Yes, I might have many things to trouble you with in the future. Take care!” Krees replied.

Chen Fei glanced at the other players.

They all looked at him with admiration.

There were also numerous friend requests.

In an instant, it was 99+.

Chen Fei looked up at the sky.

It was gradually getting darker.

At the same time.

A holographic screen appeared before Chen Fei.

[You have reached eight hours of gameplay today. You will be logged out!]

When this prompt appeared.

His vision turned into a gray, hazy chaos.

Then, his consciousness returned to his body.

He slowly opened his eyes.

And got up from the game pod.

Gurgle~

His stomach growled again.

He glanced at the clock on the table.

It was already seven o’clock.

The sky had darkened.

“Time to eat…”

Chen Fei picked up his phone from the table.

Unlocking it.

He found a message from Lin Mumu.

“Fei, I’m coming over tonight to help you with your homework!”

He paused for a moment.

“This girl… still cares about me so much…”

A year ago, Chen Fei’s parents died in a car accident.

Since then, Chen Fei had been in a slump, living in a daze every day.

His grades plummeted, and he faced the possibility of dropping out.

It was during this darkest time that Lin Mumu stayed by his side, helping him find his way back from the abyss…

In his past life, when the myriad races invaded, there was a day Chen Fei could never forget.

The entire Z Province was obliterated under a sky-darkening claw!

Had it not been for his charm value max, protected by the mystic maiden of the nine heavens from the celestial race, he would have perished along with Z Province!

That day, Chen Fei lost everything.

Thus began his days of captivity by the celestial race…

…

Chen Fei snapped out of his memories.

He looked at the message on his phone, his mind awash with thoughts.

Time was not on his side, and he was in a rush.

After eight hours of gaming, his mind was exhausted.

He needed a lot of rest.

This was why Chen Fei hadn’t gone to see Lin Mumu the previous night.

He was truly tired, and admittedly, a bit afraid to face her.

Just as he was thinking about it, there was a knock at the door.

“Fei, I’m here.”

So soon!?

Chen Fei quickly walked to the living room and opened the door.

He was greeted by the sight of a somewhat shy girl looking at him with concern.

“Fei, you don’t look well. Are you sick?”

She reached out, touching Chen Fei’s forehead, feeling his temperature.

Looking at the girl’s face, Chen Fei felt a lump in his throat.

He gently pushed her hand away, choking up a bit, “What are you doing? I’m not a kid anymore, stop playing the mom and son game…”

“Then why are you crying? You used to cry when you wanted me to hold you, hmm… Fei…”

She pulled Chen Fei into her embrace, gently soothing him.

Chen Fei blushed, recalling memories from when they were younger.

He quickly broke free.

“Come in and sit down.” Chen Fei led her inside and took a drink from the fridge. “Here, drink this. I haven’t boiled any water.”

Lin Mumu took the drink but didn’t sip it, placing it on the table instead.

She sat on the sofa, staring intently at Chen Fei.

“You look really pale. Didn’t you sleep well?”

Chen Fei was taken aback.

Do I really look that bad?

“No, I slept fine.”

“Really?”

“Really!!”

“Then why aren’t you going to school today?”

“Playing games.”

“Playing games?” Her expression turned odd as she glanced at Chen Fei’s pale face and his slightly trembling legs from hunger.

For a moment, it seemed like she realized something. Her gaze at Chen Fei carried a hint of peculiarity as she said, “You should take care of yourself. Those games aren’t really that fun…”

“Actually, that game can…”

Chen Fei stopped himself. He had intended to tell her that the game could merge with reality! But knowing her personality, she definitely wouldn’t believe it! And if he said it, Chen Fei was sure of one thing: she’d drag him to a hospital! And not just any hospital, but a psychiatric one he couldn’t escape from! He’d even get special attention there, because her family ran a psychiatric hospital!!

Gurgle~

Chen Fei’s stomach growled again.

“You haven’t eaten yet, have you?”

“Yeah, I just finished the game.”

“Honestly, what if you get sick from this?” She stood up and pulled Chen Fei along. “Come on, let’s go downstairs and eat.”

Chen Fei didn’t resist, letting her lead him.

……

Tonight, Chen Fei ate exceptionally well. Lin Mumu ordered all sorts of delicious dishes for him. Things Chen Fei would only indulge in during the New Year were now spread across the table, all for him to enjoy.

“Fei, is it enough? Do you want anything else? Don’t be shy, just tell me.”

“It’s enough, it’s enough, I can’t even finish all this…”

……

After the meal, Chen Fei even packed a lot to take home. As they walked along the road, he said, “Mumu, why don’t you play the game with me?”

“What!” Lin Mumu’s face turned beet red, the blush spreading to her ears. “Fei… you want me to play… that kind of game with you…”

Chen Fei had no idea that Lin Mumu had started having strange thoughts about him. If he knew, he would definitely cry out in protest!

The two walked under the moonlight and soon returned to their neighborhood.
