Yue Ya had thought that the masked youth was different from ordinary NPCs, but she didn't expect that he was also an awakened NPC. However, the Undead Mall was Black Crow's work, so it seemed reasonable that there was an awakened NPC hidden deep inside.

Yueya pondered for a moment and asked, "You didn't ask to go with me last time, and you said we would meet again. Did you know I would come back?"

The masked young man nodded.

"Is this Black Crow's arrangement?"

The masked young man shook his head: "It's instinct."

As for what this instinct is and how it arises, the masked young man couldn't explain it. It was probably as mysterious as intuition.

Yue Ya did not ask any more questions: "Okay, come with me. Do you want to go into the Soul-Hiding Umbrella or the Puppet Card? The Soul-Hiding Umbrella is more flexible, and the Puppet Card is more convenient for communication."

Yueya should have too much experience in "kidnapping" awakened NPCs, and be so skilled in the job that the main system is scared.

The masked young man said without hesitation: "Puppet Card."

Yue Ya made an identical puppet body for him on the spot to house his soul.

[Player "Yueya", do you want to start live streaming? ]

I haven't done a live broadcast for a while. Yue Ya really misses the audience in the live broadcast room. Without their lively comments, it seems to be less fun.

Wouldn't the audience want to see themselves at the top of the player rankings? Then give them a surprise.

Yue Ya agreed to start the live broadcast. A familiar screen appeared in front of him. The picture was still for more than ten seconds, and then barrages began to pop up crazily.

[Ahhh it’s Zaizai! Zaizai is on air!]

[Where is my fat? Let me suck it~]

[Huh? This background looks so familiar, where is the anchor?]

[Family, this seems to be... the Mall of the Dead!!]

Yueya took two steps, allowing the masked young man holding Feifei to enter the frame, and interacted with the live broadcast room for a rare moment: "Did you recognize who it is?"

[This mask is very recognizable, it's the handsome masked guy, the fat and big eater friend!]

[He was wearing a mask, how did you know he was a handsome guy?]

[Don’t ask, if you ask, the handsome guy has a natural aura, and even wearing a mask can’t hide his handsomeness~]

[Fei Fei was so sad when she said goodbye to her friend, but she never expected that we would meet again. Fate is indescribable~]

[So this is really the Mall of the Dead?]

"Yes, I'm back. This guy will be our new partner from now on," Yue Ya looked at the masked young man and said, "Say hello to everyone."

The masked young man was now Yue Ya's puppet and could see the screen of the live broadcast room. He waved his hand and said in a low and pleasant voice: "Hello everyone, my name is Bai Ge."

Yue Ya smiled and said, "Did Black Crow give you this name?"

White Dove did not deny it.

Yue Ya's tone was casual, but the information he revealed was explosive, and it directly blew up the live broadcast room.

[The anchor has recruited another NPC? My goodness, you are almost emptying the game! If you don’t know, you would think you are the master of the game]

[I don't quite understand why the host went back to the Undead Emporium. If I remember correctly, this is a C-level dungeon. Did the host's player level regress to C-level?]

[Fuck! All you dad fans, mom fans, and sister fans, go check out Yuezai’s player level, I’m almost blinded by it!]

[How come the anchor has almost reached the maximum level in such a short time? How many rare skill cards did he eat in one meal? Also, I checked the player levels of Zhuang Yan and Yun Yu, and they have also soared a lot of levels. Can anyone tell me what they went through?]

[Without saying anything else, congratulations to Yuezai for landing at the tenth place in the player rankings!!!]

The live broadcast room was boiling with numerous comments of “awesome”.

Yue Ya also felt that what he had experienced recently was a bit dreamy, and his own mood was like riding a roller coaster. He could understand the audience's shock.

However, what he's about to do next is even more rebellious, and I hope the audience can bear it.

Yue Ya did not interact with the live broadcast room anymore. He led his companions into Yinjian Village and arrived at the Miracle Valley with ease.

When passing through the Undead Mall, the exit passage opened into the void here. Yue Ya still remembers the sound of the wind passing by her ears when she jumped off the cliff.

Yunyu looked down and saw that at the end of the abyss was a turbulent river flowing into the impenetrable thick fog.

Yun Yu: "Is this the Miracle Valley? Is our destination in the thick fog?"

"That's right."

"The river below seems very deep. We can't swim there, right?" Zhuang Yan paused and looked at Yue Ya with a smile: "Why do I remember that you have a boat?"

Yue Ya raised his eyebrows and took out a ghost ship.

The ghost ship was suspended in mid-air, with two silhouetted boatmen standing on it, waiting with their heads bowed.

"I remember that this ghost ship was the easter egg reward of the Sleeping Statue dungeon, and it just happened to be used here," Zhuang Yan touched his chin, "I don't think it's a coincidence, but rather an arrangement by Black Crow."

"She has the power of prophecy," Yueya said, "get on board."

After everyone was on board, the ghost ship sailed smoothly towards the abyss.

"We're about to land, hold on tight."

As soon as the words came out, the ghost ship touched the water surface and was nearly overturned by the waves. The players held on to the side of the boat and finally did not get thrown off, but their clothes inevitably got wet.

The temperature in the valley is very low, and when the mountain breeze blows, it makes people shiver.

Yue Ya blinked away the frost on her eyelashes: "The ghost ship can float in the air, but if it doesn't follow the river, it may get lost after entering the fog. I can only ask everyone to be patient."

"You don't have to worry about us. We have come here through so much hardship. I am very excited now. I can overcome any difficulties." Zhuang Yan smiled and rubbed his face. "I will place some flames around the boat for lighting and to keep everyone warm."

The red flames escorted them around, driving away the cold and calming people's hearts. Ghosts naturally dislike open flames and warmth, so the masked young man chose to stay in Yue Ya's card space, and reluctantly returned the smooth fat to Yue Ya.

The two boatmen couldn't hide, so they hid at the other end and steered the boat diligently to make it less bumpy.

[If I remember correctly, Miracle Ravine can lead to the Mouth of Hell, and the boss of the Undead Mall, Lin Ao, is a living dead who climbed up from the Mouth of Hell - the NPC grandma said that Lin Ao's family threw his body into the Miracle Ravine, and it floated along the river to the Mouth of Hell, and then he really came back to life and climbed up the cliff to try to massacre the village]

[The host came back here to find the mouth of hell? Does he want to resurrect someone?]

[If the host wants to revive someone, why does he need to go to the mouth of hell? Doesn’t he have a reincarnation tree that can be cloned?]

As they were about to enter a thick fog area, a loud crow's cry passed through the sky. Yue Ya looked up and saw a crow carrying an envelope gliding towards him.

The envelope was handed to Yue Ya, and the crow shook its wings and left gracefully.

Yue Ya unfolded the letter and saw familiar handwriting on it.

"The Hellmouth is not a dungeon, but a place of exile. It is the last stop for players who have failed in challenging a full-level dungeon. No one knows its true appearance, because since the server was launched, no player has been able to leave there. Once you go there, there is no turning back."

Their clothes had dried under the flames, but Zhuang Yan still felt a little cold on his back: "Is this Black Crow's final advice to us? After entering the thick fog, this route will be useless. We can't go back the same way."

Yun Yu frowned, "Her knowledge of the Hellmouth seems limited. The Land of Exile sounds very ominous."

"Look back?" A dark light flashed across Yue Ya's eyes, and he curled his lips and said, "I don't have this option in my life."

Only by moving forward courageously can we shoulder the responsibility of saving the world.

The ghost ship sailed into the thick fog without hesitation and drifted along the river into the unknown.

Thick fog swallowed up the flames, and complete darkness surrounded them. No one knew what kind of fog it was, and Yue Ya couldn't see through it even with the eyes of the Pixiu.

"Let's hold each other's hands, don't get lost," Zhuang Yan fumbled in the dark, held a hand, and took a breath of cold air: "Yueya, why are your hands so cold? I'm freezing to death."

Yue Ya was stunned and said coldly: "I didn't shake hands with you."

Zhuang Yan's scalp suddenly went numb: "I... Shit... Whose hand am I holding? It's so big... It definitely isn't Yun Yu's!"

Yun Yu: "It's definitely not mine."

Zhuang Yan wanted to cry but had no tears. He shouted, "Hey, hey, hey, let's talk it over. Brother Ghost, please don't hold my fingers together!"

Yueya and Yunyu imagined this scene and couldn't help laughing.

But soon Yue Ya could no longer laugh, because he felt something climbing up his back silently, and a wet head stuck to the back of his neck.
