Chapter 5 Chapter5- Can it actually be traded?
John stood outside the holographic chamber, waiting for entirely two hours.
Finally, the chamber door slowly opened, and the pretty delivery girl rubbed her eyes, looking at John with a smile: "Sorry, the Godslayer world was so interesting that I ended up playing for two hours instead of the half-hour I promised."
As she stretched, her curves were particularly prominent, and John struggled to keep his eyes away.
"That's all right'," John said nonchalantly, "I'm used to staying up late."
To be honest, he was exhausted, but he couldn't resist watching her play in the chamber with so little clothing. The time flew by for him.
She got out of the chamber, got dressed, and left John's house.
As soon as she was gone, John felt overwhelmingly sleepy and went to take a shower.
About ten minutes later, while he was humming a tune and enjoying the hot water, the bathroom door suddenly burst open.
John, completely naked, was stunned.
The delivery girl had returned, her eyes wide as she stared at him.
John quickly wrapped a towel around his waist and asked,
"Why are you back?"
The young beauty blushed and shyly explained, "I... I just recalled that in a little over an hour, the first bus will arrive, so I thought I could save some taxi fare by coming back now."
"I heard you singing inside and wanted to knock on your bathroom door, but the door wasn't locked, so I just pushed it open, Err….that's an accident, I promise..."
"Can I stay here a little longer? I have nowhere else to go," she asked.
John was at a loss for words.
"Um..."
"To apologize and thank you for letting me try the holographic chamber, I also bought some barbecue and beer!"
The young beauty quickly lifted the plastic bag she was carrying, which was filled with plenty of food and drinks.
John had no choice at this point. He couldn't possibly kick out such a beautiful girl before dawn, could he?
He shrugged and said, "Alright, you can stay for a while."
"But I'm warning you, I don't have a great alcohol tolerance. If I end up doing something to you after drinking too much, don't say I didn't warn you."
The young beauty laughed and confidently patted her impressive chest, saying, "Don't worry, I can handle my alcohol!"
...
A few hours passed.
John opened his eyes and found himself lying naked on his own bed.
His right hand felt incredibly soft, as if it was touching...
He turned his head and,
What????
Well, well.
The young beauty from last night hadn't left and was now lying in bed with him in the same state.
The two of them were both naked.
It seemed that they had done everything they should have done, and everything they shouldn't have done.
John vaguely remembered that they had drunk a lot of beer last night, and eventually, both of them had plunged into "madness."
John was stunned, his mind completely blank.
As an upright man, he would never take advantage of someone in a vulnerable state, but the situation had spiraled beyond his expectations.
What should I do? What should I do?
He decided to tidy up while she was still asleep.
He awkwardly withdrew his hand.
This abrupt movement made the young beauty on the other side of the bed frown slightly, waking her up.
"Good...morning..."
"Ah!"
She screamed when she realized her current state and immediately started shrieking.
"We...we..."
John's ears hurt from her sudden scream, and he quickly motioned for her to stop, saying, "Alright, alright, as you can see, we both had too much to drink last night... But it was a wonderful night...Maybe?"
The young beauty said anxiously, "But, it's my first time..."
John nodded, "Well, me too…"
The young beauty looked at John, her face full of confusion, "So...what should we do from now on?"
John scratched his head, feeling that things had become complicated.
After thinking for a moment, he said:
"If you don't mind, you can come over to play games with me from now on."
"Um, I can buy another holographic chamber."
The young beauty lowered her head, thought for a while, and then looked up at John and said, "My name is Emma Williams, what about you?"
"John Foster."
John introduced himself.
Emma nodded, then quietly put on her clothes.
Unfortunately, the clothes from last night had been torn to shreds by John.
John looked at her awkwardly and said:
"Maybe you can wear my T-shirt then?"
Emma glanced at him, then at her obviously unwearable clothes, and nodded:
"Alright... I'll return your clothes next time I come over."
...
In the afternoon.
John casually ate some food to fill his stomach, and then opened the holographic chamber again.
Time waits for no one, and he had to level up quickly.
He logged into the game.
John first checked his personal attribute panel, then continued toward the twisted stone door.
Others leveled up by killing monsters.
He leveled up by being killed by Devils.
But this was temporary.
John was determined in his heart to defeat The Devil sooner or later!
...
[Ding, you have been killed.]
[Due to your 'God Slayer' class feature, being killed by a god-level BOSS will grant additional rewards.]
[Exp Points +100,000]
[Gold Coins+55]
...
[Ding, you have been killed.]

[Exp Points +110,000]
[Gold Coins+60]
...
Another afternoon of hard work.
Today's leveling speed has slowed down a lot.
Because John had already reached level 27, since leveling up to 25, the Exp required for each level up had become very terrifying.
Now, for John to level up to 28, he needed more than 1.3 million Exp points.
If he relied solely on being killed by The Devil.
He would have to be killed 13 times to level up.
Even though John had become very proficient at dying, dying 13 times still took about an hour.
This made John very distressed.
If this continued, wouldn't he be caught up by other players soon?
Although the Exp and Gold Coins he gained each time he was killed by Devils increased.
But this efficiency was still not enough to satisfy John.
"Although there isn't much Exp, I've already saved up more than ten thousand gold coins."
"If only I could exchange these gold coins for Exp..."
At this point, John thought of the player forum.
He opened the system's official forum page and found that he could log in normally.
It seemed that even posting and commenting were not restricted.
Moreover, he could even spend HP to shout in the global channel.
Could it be... even though his character was trapped in the temple, he could still interact with other players?
In that case, trading wasn't impossible, right?!
Just as John was thinking about this,
he noticed that a stone statue on the right side of the temple began to glow.
The statue was a stone-carved humanoid demon, holding a plate respectfully with both hands.
There was nothing on the plate.
John tentatively placed his tattered iron chain on it.
[Ding, you have put an item up for sale in the official store. Other players can purchase your item in the trade associations of various towns.]
[Item for sale: Tattered Iron Chain (Poor)]
[Please set the sale price:]
This excited John greatly!
If he could sell items through this plate, he could naturally buy items as well!
In other words,
he could trade with players outside without leaving the temple!
"System, I want to buy items from the trade association."
John spoke to his system interface.
The next second,
The eyes of the statue in front of him emitted a beam of light, which converged in mid-air and formed a projection...
And the projection interface was the trade association's item list!
