Chapter 148 Area A

Because the two NPCs in the cell hadn't uttered a sound from beginning to end, Zhu Jie had long forgotten about them.

They speak much more casually, of course.

She was now marveling at the difficulty of the dungeon, and then complaining about what had happened between players before Jiang Liyue made her move.

Jiang Liyue had already guessed that a fight would definitely break out between the players when Jiang Lingxue and Tu Ke made the bet.

She was too far away to know the specifics.

Unexpectedly, I learned what happened from Zhu Jie.

Jiang Lingxue not only refused to play herself, but she also prevented Jiang Zhou and Huo Heng from playing.

Jiang Liyue learned the name Huo Heng from Zhu Jie.

"Huo Heng is quite skilled; there were quite a few posts about him on the forum before," Zhu Jie introduced. "He's so skilled, but he targets players instead of NPCs."

Zhu Jie still remembers the feeling of Huo Heng holding a knife to her neck, and she still feels lingering fear.

“It’s not that I can’t accept going up to fight, after all, even if I don’t go up and take that punch, I might still be chosen to fight.”

Zhu Jie paused, clenched her fist, and said in an extremely displeased tone, "I just feel that since everyone has contributed, why does Jiang Lingxue have to act like she did us a huge favor?"

"Didn't she benefit from it herself? And she says it's for our sake..."

Jiang Liyue wasn't really paying attention as she listened from the side.

Based on the previous exchange meeting and what I just observed, Jiang Lingxue is indeed the true daughter of the Jiang family.

Like the Jiang family, they are self-centered and prioritize their own interests.

She didn't know why the other person was the female lead, but after all, the novel was told from the female lead's perspective.

From another perspective, the female protagonist's strategic planning and aloof demeanor in the dungeon might be seen as a satisfying read by readers.

As for cannon fodder characters like Su Ye and Zhu Jie, they are of course unimportant.

Actually, Jiang Liyue really didn't want to be in the same instance as Jiang Lingxue and the others.

Based on her extensive experience watching countless films, the protagonist is always surrounded by various troubles. The protagonist may be fine, but others may not be.

Jiang Liyue is not afraid of danger, but she is afraid of trouble.

Instead of wasting time arguing with Jiang Zhou and his sister, she'd rather go and be intimate with her own man.

Especially the men in this instance, all dressed in uniforms and completely covered up, made her completely forget the dire situation she was in during the previous instance, surrounded by two men.

I just want to tear off his uniform and see what kind of madness lies beneath his calm exterior.

Male beauty is meant for her to enjoy.

Unfortunately, her man is currently in Area A, and she doesn't know how to infiltrate there yet.

I wonder if killing a few more prisoners would be a good idea?

I heard that Area A houses an extremely dangerous madwoman. If killing a few prisoners isn't enough for her, what if she attacks the prison guards?

Just as Jiang Liyue was casually listening to Zhu Jie muttering bad things about the players and thinking about how to cause trouble, their cell door was suddenly opened again.

He was also a prison guard: "Number 7777".

"Yes." Jiang Liyue leaned against the bed and raised her hand to indicate.

"You've been moved to Zone A. Come with me." The prison guard looked at her with awe.

This is an inmate who was promoted to Block A on her very first day in Prison 01. Although I had heard about her deeds from her colleagues, I never expected her to look so harmless.

But the prison guards knew how capable she was and wouldn't underestimate her, so their tone was relatively mild.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Liyue's eyes lit up instantly: "Area A?"

She was just wondering how to get to Area A.

They just delivered it right to our door like that.

"That's great, let's go now." Jiang Liyue jumped off the bed impatiently.

She thought about how the male and female protagonists were living in the cell next door, and wondered how much trouble she would get into.

I wonder what kind of preferential treatment the male and female leads will receive. What if we can't kill them no matter what?

It's best to stay away from them.

The prison guards didn't expect her to be so excited when she heard about Zone A. No matter how strong she was, Zone A was where monsters were kept.

Countless newcomers have become prey for those monsters...

The prison guards didn't say anything.

Zhu Jie, who was speaking excitedly, stared blankly at her retreating figure: "Boss, you're leaving already?"

What will she do then? QAQ

She finally remembered that there were two old prisoners in the cell.

If Jiang Liyue leaves, then she will be facing those two old prisoners alone!

Jiang Liyue caught a glimpse of Zhu Jie's reluctant expression and helplessly looked away.

The prisoners in the cell are similar to the roommates the player shares a room with in the Happy School, and the patients the player is responsible for in the Happy Sanatorium.

This is the most basic challenge for players.

If Zhu Jie can't even handle this, even if Jiang Liyue helps her kill the two people in the cell, Zhu Jie will still be waiting to die.

So, you'll have to rely on yourself for the dungeons.

On the other side, Jiang Zhou and Huo Heng were assigned to the same cell.

Huo Heng noticed that Jiang Zhou recognized the girl on the platform and asked, "Do you two know each other?"

As expected, Jiang Zhou blurted out their relationship, including the truth about the real and fake heiresses, and how Jiang Liyue ran away from home in a fit of pique.

As for their plan to give Jiang Liyue to a lewd old man, he certainly wouldn't mention it.

"That girl is very timid. She doesn't even dare to enter dungeons. I don't know what kind of trauma she went through to become like this."

Even though Jiang Zhou witnessed Jiang Liyue unilaterally defeating Tu Ke, he still didn't believe that she relied on herself.

Maybe Huang Linye gave her some powerful tool?

Noticing that Huo Heng seemed somewhat interested in Jiang Liyue, Jiang Zhou spared no effort in smearing her.

Ling Xue is his real sister, and she's much more sensible than that brat Jiang Liyue. Of course, Huo Heng likes Ling Xue, because the Jiang family can get the most benefits from her.

Huo Heng didn't comment on Jiang Zhou's account, but he thoughtfully curled the corners of his mouth and said, "It's quite interesting."

He didn't believe there were any tools that could make someone powerful overnight.

Tsk, that's interesting.

When the prisoners were released for their meal, Jiang Zhou and the others quickly found Jiang Lingxue: "Lingxue, let's go check on that brat Jiang Liyue first."

“That’s what I think too. Although my sister has become more powerful, she’s too reckless, which is very dangerous in dungeons,” Jiang Lingxue said, frowning and scolding.

She felt somewhat uncomfortable that Jiang Liyue's sudden appearance had disrupted her plans.

She had already made an agreement with Tuk, but Jiang Liyue suddenly rushed up and dealt with Tuk. Now everyone is grateful to and respects Jiang Liyue, and has forgotten her contribution.

Jiang Lingxue rebuked him with a cold expression: "She loves to show off too much."

Jiang Zhou also thought it made sense, and Huo Heng became even more interested in Jiang Liyue, agreeing to go find her.

To everyone's surprise, they found nothing; Jiang Liyue had vanished without a trace!

Jiang Liyue, who has already gone to Area A: I'm off to find my husband, so don't get involved!
