Chapter 264: A Player’s Journey of Pain

The mountain really looked like a bald old man.

Li Yi, who had come to the sky, saw it at first glance. Although it was a prison, there was not a single guard on duty.

Even the main door was open.

Li Yi called Fire away and told him to go back and have a good rest.

He could take care of the rest by himself. Moreover, if Fire scared these tailors, it would be the end for him.

Li Yi put away his weapons and walked leisurely toward the prison.

Since the helmet was not part of the undead suit’s special effects, the people inside saw a man in a white gown and a funny helmet in the shape of an onion walk in.

“Don’t you think this man is in the wrong place? He must think this is a mental hospital.”

“It’s very possible that he’s lost. Why don’t you go and explain it to him?”

“How would he understand? Look at him, he definitely can’t understand the language of a normal person.”

“…”

Li Yi had already arrived in front of the two of them. Li Yi listened to every word of their conversation. The misunderstanding between the two struck Li Yi’s heart.

“Hello, I’m here to carry out a mission.”

“Oh my gosh, Ado, he spoke!”

“Asi, what should we say?”

A fat man and a skinny man started to talk to each other.

“Uh… about that… I can understand what you two are saying. You two can just communicate with me normally.”

Hearing Li Yi’s words, the two of them were stunned.

“So you can understand. That’s good. I thought that there was a lunatic somewhere.”

“So you’re here to help us?”

“That’s right.”

“That’s great.”

The tall and skinny man ran to the warehouse and took out some tools and handed them to Li Yi.

“Since you’re here, help us repair this place. It’s been in shambles for a long time, and we need someone to help us maintain it.”

[System Notification: Prison That is Not a Prison! mission activated.]

[Mission Content: Prison repair completed 0/10.]

“Leave it to me.”

Li Yi took the tools and left.

Only these two people were still living in this prison. The others had already left.

The skinny man’s name was Ado, and the fat man’s name was Asi.

These two people were the ones who deceived the City Lord. These two people were gluttonous and lazy. Usually, they were not even willing to take a step out of the prison gate.

They waited for the potato harvest every year to eat. Potatoes were the easier food to grow.

Even so, in this huge prison, a year’s harvest was barely enough for the two of them to fill their stomachs.

If it was someone who was more diligent, a year’s harvest could be sold for money.

If they found a worker to help, they would not have to wait for the players to complete this mission. Moreover, the two of them were still wearing the prison uniforms from before.

In this prison, there were over a hundred prison uniforms that were worn out. They were obviously tailors, but they did not even bother to mend their clothes. The pile of tattered clothes in the corner of the prison started to become moldy, and the two of them did not care about it at all.

The first thing Li Yi did was to dispose of these tattered clothes.

It was difficult to dispose of them. The pile of clothes was so smelly that it was like a mountain of trash. It was so bad that it even attracted all kinds of flies.

It was definitely going to be the toughest mission he had ever done.

Li Yi held his breath and walked over. He immediately burned the whole thing.

As soon as the fire was lit, a tall volcano-like fire instantly appeared.

Burning it would take some time. Since he was not in a hurry now, Li Yi took the time to log off and rest for a while.

Looking at the time, he should be online in about two hours to check on the fire.

Li Yi’s stomach was grumbling, so he ordered a takeaway.

It was the perfect time to relax.

Now that Li Yi was level 37, he was about to reach level 40.

Once he reached level 40, the Heavy Armor Dragon Knight class could be upgraded again. Now, Li Yi was completely focused on improving his strength.

It was a long journey. The speed of the players had begun to advance crazily. Li Yi, who had always been in first place, naturally had to be on par.

The Carefree Station relied on his strength to have absolute safety. Moreover, the fight for the station rankings next month was about to begin.

There was not much time left for Li Yi to improve his strength.

He had enough rest. After tidying up his room, Li Yi returned to the gaming pod once again.

He returned to the Prison That is Not a Prison!

The sky was filled with smoke, and even the air was filled with the smell of mold.

Li Yi laughed evilly in his heart.

The two of them probably did not feel good in this stinky air either.

This was karma. These two lazy fellows needed to be properly treated.

“Hey, you’re finally here. Hurry up and save us. This smell is really too disgusting.”

When Ado saw Li Yi walking in, he surrounded him as if he had seen his savior.

He was crying while pushing the pile of ashes towards the ruins.

The dirty clothes here had been burnt, but the dust that was floating everywhere was very troublesome for them.

Li Yi could only take the shovel and clean up the place one by one. After all of it was transported to the outside of the prison, Li Yi dug a big pit and buried all the ashes inside.

The matter was simple, but tedious. After Li Yi worked for several hours, he finally cleaned the place up.

When he returned to the prison, the smell was almost gone.

Ado and Asi were drinking tea in the room.

Li Yi really wanted to beat them up, but he still had to rely on the two of them to give him rewards.

The tasks were simple, but tiring.

After all this was done, the mission could officially begin.

Repairing the prison was a huge amount of work.

First, there had to be a pile of stones that needed to be replaced. Fortunately, there were many stones on this mountain.

Li Yi walked out of the prison and moved the large stones back one by one.

In the blink of an eye, it was already dark.

Li Yi was also tired.

After moving for half a day, the pile of stones was also about half the size of a hill.

It was barely enough for him to call it a day, but he did.

Li Yi said goodbye to Ado and Asi and told them to guard the stones well, so that they would not have to live in vain.

After that, Li Yi went offline to sleep.

As soon as he got up, Li Yi returned to the game and continued to work.

This mission took too much time. The sooner he finished it, however, the sooner he would be free.

After working for the whole morning, he was finally done. Li Yi sat on the ground and did not want to move anymore.

[System Notification: Mission completed 1/10.]

After working for two days and only completing one out of the ten tasks, Li Yi was beat.

This mission was designed to torture players.

“It’s been hard on you. By the way, the potatoes in the ground are almost ripe. Please help me harvest them.”

Li Yi smiled and did not say anything else. There was nothing much to say in front of the two slackers.

He went and eagerly dug the potatoes.

Fortunately, there were the undead special effects. Otherwise, he would have been bested by these potatoes and been worn out by his heavy armor.

He would have died of exhaustion from the digging.

When this mission was completed, he must find an opportunity to torture these two lazy fellows.
