6: Life and Death PK
Li Si was practically going crazy from poverty at this point.
After buying the login wristband, he only had 36 RMB left in his bank account; splitting one bun in half wouldn't even last him a few days.
Now that an opportunity to earn money had appeared, he naturally had to seize it firmly.
"Boss, do you think I'm good enough?" A player showed his level and ID.
Jiangshan Meiren Lv3
"Barely acceptable. What's your attack?" Qian Duoduo said indifferently. Level 3 was perhaps decent among ordinary players, but unremarkable among experts, not even as good as his previous power leveler.
"13 max attack, Boss, how much RMB am I worth?" Jiangshan Meiren asked cautiously.
"500 per hour."
"Okay! I accept!"
Jiangshan Meiren smiled happily. 500 RMB an hour, that's 5000 RMB for ten hours. He was just a kindergarten teacher; he had never encountered such a high salary before.
"Is anyone else signing up? If not, I'll choose him." Qian Duoduo scanned the crowd, his breath suddenly catching.
Because he saw Li Si.
In an instant, Qian Duoduo's eyes lit up. The expert who killed wild boars in the farmland was here too. What was he doing here? At this moment, a myriad of thoughts arose in his mind.
"Me!"
At this moment, Li Si raised his hand.
If Jiangshan Meiren could get 500 RMB an hour, wouldn't he be guaranteed at least 1000 RMB per hour?
"What the hell level are you? Trying to snatch my boss?"
The smile on Jiangshan Meiren's face instantly froze.
"I'm Level 1," Li Si said.
"Hahaha... are you trying to die? You're Level 1 and dare to be a power leveler? Everyone, come look, this guy is only Level 1 and he's trying to be a power leveler." Jiangshan Meiren's face reappeared with a smile.
"Holy crap? So arrogant?"
"Doesn't that mean I can be a power leveler at Level 2?"
"Hahaha... what a clown!"
"......"
The surrounding players discussed animatedly, pointing at Li Si.
Qian Duoduo walked through the crowd and stood in front of Li Si.
What? The expert actually wants to be my power leveler? Oh my god, I didn't mishear, did I?
Qian Duoduo was too excited, his heart pounding, his cheeks flushed.
At this time, the surrounding crowd was still endlessly mocking Li Si, cursing him for not knowing his place.
"Damn it, all of you shut up!"
"Hahaha... you're finished, the boss is getting angry," Jiangshan Meiren said playfully.
"You shut up too!"
Qian Duoduo glared fiercely at Jiangshan Meiren.
Then, as if by magic, he smiled fawningly and said, "Expert, do you really want to level me up?"
My goodness, how did he know I was an expert? Li Si was surprised.
"You know me?"
"I've admired your back from afar. In the golden farmland, your figure was as majestic as a god, and the scene of your sword energy sweeping across will be unforgettable for my entire life." Qian Duoduo said, gesturing wildly, like a conductor of a large orchestra.
This scene left the surrounding players dumbfounded.
What's going on?
Why is the rich boss suddenly groveling?
Is this Level 1 newbie really an expert?
"Expert, do you really want to level me up?" Qian Duoduo showed an expectant expression.
"How much am I worth?"
The price was Li Si's biggest concern.
"1000 RMB an hour... no... 3000 RMB an hour."
Holy crap!
3000 RMB an hour?
Li Si's heart pounded. He was about to be rich. Being a professional player was truly great.
"Deal."
"Thank you, expert. Can I get a friend slot? So I can transfer the money." Qian Duoduo jumped three feet high with joy.
"You can."
Li Si accepted Qian Duoduo's friend request.
Beep!
Player - Qian Duoduo has become your close friend.
Heaven Rewards Diligence, making friends is also a form of cultivation. Befriending people increases your charm.
Charm permanently +2.
Charm was the third hidden attribute besides Luck and Comprehension.
It also had extraordinary effects, increasing NPC favorability.
This is really good.
With this unexpected gain, Li Si was in a good mood.
A few meters away, Jiangshan Meiren's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
He pointed at Li Si and Qian Duoduo, angrily saying, "Damn it, you're a fake rich guy, aren't you? You don't hire Level 3 me, but instead hire Level 1 him. There's only one possibility: you two conspired to come here and show off."
"Ah? This... it does seem a bit illogical."
"There's a good chance this is true. Two people working together, one pretending to be rich, one pretending to be an expert."
"Rejecting a Level 3 for a Level 1, is there really a problem?"
The onlookers commented and pointed, making various guesses.
"Damn you, what are you? How dare you question me?" As a rich young master, when had Qian Duoduo ever suffered such indignity?
It was only because this was a game; if it were in reality, he would definitely make the other party pay.
"Expert, I'm so angry!"
Qian Duoduo pouted his chubby face, seeking help from Li Si in distress. His bodyguards weren't around, so he could only rely on the expert.
"Leave it to me."
Li Si patted Qian Duoduo's shoulder.
What to do when the sugar daddy is wronged?
As a qualified power leveler and an excellent professional player, such a situation was absolutely intolerable.
"If you have the guts, let's have a wilderness duel, a death match."
Li Si looked at Jiangshan Meiren and said coldly.
The PK in All Heavens was divided into "Sparring" and "Death Match." Sparring PK had no penalty, while Death Match PK was like a normal death.
And Li Si's Death Match invitation was not only to vent for Qian Duoduo but also to trigger the Limiter.
If adding a friend could trigger it, a Death Match PK would most likely also trigger it.
"Holy crap! A death match."
"This Level 1 newbie is awesome!"
"Does Jiangshan Meiren dare to accept?"
The onlookers all turned their gaze to Jiangshan Meiren.
"Haha... a duel is a duel, do you think I'm scared of you?"
Upon hearing Li Si's Death Match invitation, Jiangshan Meiren felt some fear internally, but also worried about the negative impact of refusing a Death Match. Hundreds of players were watching nearby, and one wrong move could lead to gossip.
So, all the surrounding players moved to the outside of the Novice Village.
Everyone tacitly left an open space to serve as the Death Match PK arena.
Beep!
Player - Jiangshan Meiren has accepted your Death Match PK invitation.
Fighting against Heaven, fighting against Earth, fighting against people, Heaven Rewards Diligence. For your first Death Match PK, your blood is stirred, and your attributes are increased.
Life permanently +50.
The Limiter was indeed triggered, and the reward was not low, a full 50 points of maximum HP.
Li Si happily opened his attribute panel.

An extremely exaggerated panel.

"How can a Level 3 player beat me?"
Thinking of this, Li Si's lips couldn't help but curl upwards.
"Boom!"
Crimson blood qi surged, rising from the ground, enveloping Li Si and Jiangshan Meiren, forming an octagon cage.
The Death Match PK began.
"Lawless Madman, I'll let you know who the real grandpa is."
Jiangshan Meiren drew the Newbie Sword from his back. After the system prompt for the Death Match PK, he already knew Li Si's ID.
"Alright, grandson."
Li Si closed his attribute interface.
So he's called Lawless Madman? Good heavens, that guy's ID is really flashy.
The surrounding players had such thoughts.
"Damn you!"
Jiangshan Meiren's defenses broke. He charged forward swiftly, his Newbie Sword slashing towards Li Si.
