Xu Lie summarized that the atmosphere among the employees felt no different from a utopia. Was that all there was? He also noticed that several different shops were not selling food or clothing.
"Oh, those inns," Old Fang chimed in, clearly familiar with them. "Travel Agencies are quite expensive. To visit the owners of those inns in Drama World, a round-trip ticket costs two thousand points, and if you haven't leveled up, your maximum travel time is limited to one month. But those are big shots; they have plenty of points and have transformed Drama World into something particularly interesting. You can be an emperor, a deity, or anything else—it's all quite bizarre."
Afterward, Xu Lie asked a few simple questions, and Old Fang was quite enthusiastic, answering each one. He even winked and said that once he had some points, he wanted to open the first foot massage parlor in the main hall.
After thanking Old Brother Fang, Xu Lie headed to the Newcomer Suggestions shop he mentioned. The storefront was tiny. The so-called Newcomer Suggestions consisted of just a few sheets of paper piled together, without even bothering to staple them. Even more absurdly, this shop didn’t even hire any human-like staff; the door was wide open as if inviting New Colleagues to browse freely.
Xu Lie quickly flipped through the suggestions, and the very first sentence was quite intriguing. It simply shared personal Mooching Experience, suggesting that New Colleagues could view it as selfless contribution or as a way to suppress their enthusiasm for self-reflection. The rest of the content consisted of practical advice.
For example, when choosing a role in a play, it was recommended to select ones with exciting plots and opt for characters that die quickly afterward. If the plot is engaging, the drama receives a high rating; if an actor dies immediately upon entering, it doesn’t affect their personal score, resulting in a high total score and consequently higher Payment. Essentially, it meant working for just one minute could yield the entire Payment for that drama.
Xu Lie couldn't help but admire this Newcomer Suggestions—it was truly a treasure trove for slacking off. The author even provided detailed examples of which genres of Film and Television Dramas were best for slacking. No wonder the author’s first sentence suggested that it could be seen as sharing or as suppressing newcomers' enthusiasm.
Unfortunately, Xu Lie was only interested in causing trouble and had no interest in slacking off. There were also other suggestions that didn’t involve slacking; one whole page emphasized that if an actor had someone they cared about back home, they must return. In that case, it was advisable to choose ensemble dramas to buddy up and gather enough points—up to one hundred thousand—to go home.
Indeed, the existence of multiple actors in the same Drama World is a reality. It is noted that, aside from a few who are determined to return home, the vast majority of actors actually choose to stay in this realm rather than go back.
Xu Lie can understand this sentiment well. When he reflects on his experiences in this world, would he truly want to resurrect and return? To go back to being a mere worker, laboring day and night until old age creeps in and death follows?
Or would he prefer to remain in this world, where he can experience various Drama Worlds, enjoy different landscapes, and engage in diverse activities? In the future, he might even travel to the Drama Worlds of influential figures, experiencing lives that were previously unimaginable.
Not to mention the ability to spend points to purchase bloodlines and skills, gradually growing stronger. This alone is enough to sway those actors who do not have a strong desire to return home.
It’s likely that those actors who run shops in the hall of this realm feel the same way; they neither wish to resurrect and leave nor can they forget the flavors of their hometowns. Thus, they open restaurants that serve familiar dishes from their past.
In the end, Xu Lie casually chose a shop that caught his eye, filled himself up with food and drink, and returned to his private space to select a new drama.
