Chapter 432
At 15:58, she activated a hidden egg reward once more.
**Hidden Egg Reward #1**: After use, you can temporarily become a food patron and enjoy everything the food street has to offer for 10 minutes.
She wasn't sure whether she would become a black household or remain an employee after her identity as a food patron faded, but as long as she could skip the elimination at the end of the tenth round, it would be worth it.
As long as she could get past it, even if she became a black household, it would only be at 17:08.
That way, she could safely bypass the eliminations at the end of the eleventh and twelfth rounds.
Calculating it all, she had nearly pushed her death count to the limit: three deaths, skipping the eliminations of twelve rounds.
Even if she died a few more times in the black household battles afterward, she wouldn’t consider it a loss.
After using the first egg reward, Yu Xunge transformed into a strawberry. She stored Tu Lan in her pet space and hurriedly left the restaurant.
Rather than staying in the restaurant, hoping to cling to an uncertain employee position, it was better to seize the moment and explore new possibilities.
There were many ways to play as a food patron.
Since she couldn’t attack patrons before, now that she was one, could she attack other patrons?
As soon as Yu Xunge stepped outside, she used **“I Want to Progress So Badly”** on a nearby patron.
The attempt failed, but it wasn’t ineffective.
Her eyes lit up; it had been over an hour since she last used **“Steady Happiness.”**
She approached a few patrons from behind and shouted in owl language, “I want steady happiness!”
Then she used **“I Want to Progress So Badly”** on three patrons.
Three iron boxes appeared, and the world froze.
At 17:00, the screen for the elimination at the end of the tenth round popped up.
After the familiar process concluded, Yu Xunge didn’t check the iron boxes immediately; instead, she seized the opportunity to stir up more trouble.
As soon as she shouted in owl language, nearby patrons turned to look at her. At that moment, Yu Xunge dashed in front of a patron and punched them down to the ground.
— No hidden egg triggered.
Yu Xunge helped the patron up, grasped their fist, and made them punch her back.
The patron, who had been angry just a moment ago, was speechless.
Yu Xunge didn’t want to give up. She wasn’t sure if that punch would be counted as her hitting herself, so she smashed her own face a few times with the patron’s fist and urged, “Come on! Hit me harder!”
The patron complied. To be honest, this kind of request wasn’t exactly new…
— Still no hidden egg triggered!
Yu Xunge left in disappointment, but after running a few steps, she suddenly turned back and cast a healing skill on that patron.
This time, it worked!
**Congratulations, player, you’ve discovered Hidden Egg #5 (5/20)**
**The fourth disaster is like this: Do something incomprehensible to a patron while over 1,000 players witness it.**
**Egg Reward: After use, you can see through a player’s true identity (3/3).**
“Over 1,000 players witnessed it…”
Yu Xunge silently gazed at the vast sky. Thankfully, she was just a strawberry speaking owl language for now.
It was 17:04.
Yu Xunge dashed into a restaurant and, before even sitting down, began ordering, “Whatever dish can be served the fastest, I’ll give you two minutes!”
Two minutes later, a very simple dish was placed in front of her. Yu Xunge took a bite and immediately left the restaurant.
**Congratulations, player, you’ve discovered Hidden Egg #2 (7/20)**
**Free Meal: Enter a restaurant to eat without paying.**
**Egg Reward: After use, you can reduce a death penalty by three levels.**
**Chapter 552: Divine Game: Mischief Restaurant 77**
At 17:08, her skills failed, and Yu Xunge became a black household.
She flew to a spot between two restaurants, a place where battles rarely occurred, and only then did she look at her recent gains.
Especially the reward from Egg #5—after use, she could see through a player’s true identity.
Perhaps there were hidden mechanics she didn’t know about, or maybe this was related to the game on the third day.
B8017913 suddenly spoke up: “That’s 100 times.”
**Time Distortion II: The river of time in this area has been frequently disturbed, and it is quite displeased. During this period, players who have used time skills will face harsher penalties. Please respect time as you would respect fate.**
Yu Xunge recalled the little rabbit’s suggestion and asked, “When was the time period with the most disturbances in the river of time?”
B8017913 replied, “Right before and after the elimination of the sixth round.”
Yu Xunge thought to herself that the little rabbit hadn’t lied to her, but she still didn’t know whether what she missed was good or bad.
But the benefits and resources she had in hand were the most real.
Both **“Fourfold Spring”** and **“Spring Scenery and Flowers”** were available now. After activating them all, she began the blind attack game once more.
With the new weapon **“Breach of Oath,”** her attack power surged beyond a hundredfold.
Having briefly seen the black households before, Yu Xunge had grasped some techniques. She knew where low-power players liked to hide and where they preferred to unleash their skills.
It didn’t change much, but it did reduce the number of times she found herself in crisis.
As the game progressed to this round, all the weak players without self-defense capabilities had been eliminated.
They either hid in restaurants, hoping to avoid elimination and become black households, or they tried to minimize their death count until they were eventually banished to the dark food street after time limits expired.
Now, those who still had the guts and resources to play outside as black households, daring to cluster together to snatch positions, were all above the abyss level.
The reason Yu Xunge hadn’t received any top-tier SSS-level skill rewards in her previous rounds of kills was due to this.
She could see that the game time for black households was primarily focused on the rabbit for the same reason.
Since becoming a black household, she hadn’t received any upgrade notifications like she did when she killed the Sakura Wulong.
Without the **“Midnight Exile”** equipment, even if Yu Xunge wanted to pick up scraps from the strong, she was powerless to do so.
But she hadn’t given up.
Yu Xunge preferred to target semi-employed players. After borrowing a powerful single-target attack skill with **“What Goes Around Comes Around,”** she unleashed **“Family Bucket.”**
With 100 attacks, there was a possibility of 100 **“Fourfold Spring”** activations. Whenever she used **“Family Bucket,”** Yu Xunge’s health would instantly be restored.
Even though **“Family Bucket”** could only be used once every 85 minutes, after each use, Yu Xunge would seize the few seconds during skill replication and division to use **“I Want to Progress So Badly”** without holding back.
The speed at which she consumed health was far less than the speed at which she regained it.
At 17:50, **“Fourfold Spring”** expired, meaning **“I Want to Progress So Badly”** also lost its best supply method.
But Yu Xunge had stolen 13 dishes, one copy of rabbit fur, and two skill icons during this time.
Meanwhile, something terrifying happened: one skill icon she had just stolen was recalled before she could even take a look at it.
Not only was it recalled, but that skill icon also dragged along the adjacent skill icon with it…
No matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t catch it; all she touched was a shadow.
She stood there, dumbfounded, watching as the stolen skill icon suddenly sprouted a tabby cat tail, wrapped around the adjacent skill icon, and flew away together.
This left Yu Xunge, who was used to starting from scratch, in shock.
Even being knocked away by an unknown hammer couldn’t shake her from this feeling.
For the first time, Yu Xunge not only failed to steal something but also lost one…
She had invited trouble into her home, but thankfully it was a low-probability event. Moreover, the adjacent skill icon was one of the three she had stolen during her time as a black household, and it was indeed a great SSS-level skill, though not as obviously modified as **“Family Bucket.”**
Fortunately, the second skill icon she stole afterward was quite good and suitable for ambushing.
**“Successful Focus” (SSS)**: Select a target to use this skill. No matter how far apart you are or whether you can see each other, as long as you are in the same world, the next ten skills you release will all hit that target; the effect lasts for 10 minutes; using this skill has no cost; cooldown time is 5 minutes.
And the phrase “all skills will hit that target” was quite interesting.
If used in conjunction with **“Family Bucket,”** did it mean… she could make a target endure 100 instances of the strongest single-target skill?
She just didn’t know how the priority would be determined.
Not only that, according to this statement, would area attack skills also all focus on that target?
If **“Family Bucket”** was best suited for group attacks, then **“Successful Focus”** was perfect for targeting a single opponent.
Yu Xunge loved this kind of special skill!!
At 85:00, the elimination at the end of the eleventh round occurred.
At 85:10, **“Spring Scenery and Flowers”** expired.
Yu Xunge immediately found a spot with the fewest players and hid.
In this hour, Yu Xunge only completed two kills and obtained two SSS-level skills.
Tu Lan followed her to absorb skills, but without **“Bedtime Fairy Tale,”** she died once more. By now, Tu Lan had died eight times, and Yu Xunge decided to send her back.
