"The situation is turning grim," one said.
"Hasn't it always been like this?" came the reply.
...
Eagles soar through the sky, fish dart in the shallow waters,...
"No matter what, your kidney deficiency can be cured." Li Qianxia put her hand on her brother's shoulder.
Li Changzhou felt that this gesture was not a consolation, but a mockery.
"Is your instinct proactive or reactive?" Yang Qinglan asked.
“Passive.” Li Changzhou’s eyes reflected her fair face under her baseball cap. “You can improve your physique through training and real combat.”
"They can't be immediately converted into combat power," Yang Qinglan said thoughtfully.
"Brother, you're such a loser," Li Qianxia said discontentedly. "We brought you in thinking we'd have an extra hand, but you're completely useless."
There was no other instinct to ask.
Li Qianxia, who has "twins," doesn't seem to have shared them either.
So, he really is abnormal? And not just overindulging in excessive sexual activity? That's fantastic!
While he was overjoyed, Li Changzhou felt strange. He vaguely knew what "physical enhancement" was, but "mysterious black mist," just like its instinctive name, was shrouded in mystery, and even he, its master, knew nothing about it.
'Do one push-up,' he commanded in his mind.
The humanoid black mist stood there dumbfounded, it was unclear whether it was gazing at the distant forest or the endless coastal highway, and it was impossible to tell which way its eyes were facing.
Seeing that Li Changzhou didn't speak, Li Qianxia tried to read his expression.
"Brother, are you angry?"
"Angry?" Li Changzhou came to his senses.
"I dragged you into such a dangerous situation and then mocked your instincts."
"I'll get angry if you don't tell me," Li Changzhou said. "How many times have you participated?"
Knowing that her brother wasn't angry, Li Qianxia's expression and voice returned to their lively state, and she made a peace sign as if taking a picture: "Twice."
She continued, "Qinglan and I were both caught twice. I owe my survival to her. To avoid dragging her down, I sacrificed my own family and dragged you into this mess."
Li Changzhou remembered that she had suggested taking a taxi home from the bus stop.
The brother and sister exchanged a glance. The sister chuckled, a little embarrassed, while the brother said nothing.
"Miss Yang, thank you for taking care of my sister." Li Changzhou looked at Yang Qinglan gratefully.
“In survival games, having companions is more advantageous than going it alone.” Yang Qinglan didn’t take this to heart.
“I have a question—” Li Changzhou looked at the two men’s clothes.
Li Qianxia wore a white short-sleeved shirt and 68-yuan jogger sweatpants; the bag she was carrying was gone.
Yang Qinglan's shirt and skirt look like they're made of high-quality fabric, and her legs are so straight...
Li Qianxia leaned closer to Yang Qinglan and whispered in her ear, "I've been looking at you a few times."
Yang Qinglan also said in a low voice, "To be precise, I looked at the legs several times."
Their "low voice" was merely a gesture; the volume remained unchanged.
“Ahem,” Li Changzhou looked away, “I have a question. Since you’ve participated twice before, why are you still dressed like this?”
"Because it would be strange to wear too many layers in the summer," Li Qianxia said matter-of-factly.
"...Are you serious?"
"Items not obtained from the instance or purchased with in-game currency cannot be brought in," Yang Qinglan explained. "We already tried that during the second event."
"Understood." Li Changzhou nodded.
Although he was still wondering why Yang Qinglan was wearing a skirt instead of the more comfortable sports pants like her sister, it was too early for the two to talk about what to wear on their lower bodies since it was their first meeting.
"Then we definitely need to participate in this survival game's instance..."
(All participants have arrived, and the task begins)
The voice coming from the bus stop sign was the same female voice as the one used on the bus announcement.
From the moment they started, Yang Qinglan and Li Qianxia, who had been relaxed, simultaneously became serious.
"Let's go!" Yang Qinglan led the way into the depths of the deserted island.
"What's wrong?" Li Changzhou asked in a low voice, following behind his sister.
“The number of platforms corresponds to the number of participating groups. Before the mission begins, no one can leave a platform. Once the mission starts…” Li Qianxia’s voice deepened, “the fighting will begin.”
Li Changzhou no longer cared what his sister said.
Yang Qinglan, who was walking at the front, unbuttoned her skirt. The light and airy skirt, which carried the dreams of her youth, slipped off her smooth thighs and landed on the fern-covered ground, where it was covered in dust.
Without her skirt, Yang Qinglan was wearing hiking pants underneath, with the cuffs rolled up.
As Yang Qinglan walked, she pulled down her trouser leg.
"Stop staring at other people's legs," Li Qianxia reminded someone.
"I like her personality, no, I like her style, no, style is also a kind of personality."
"Yes, yes, I know you like her."
"Even if you are my sister, you can't falsely accuse me out of thin air. Produce evidence."
"Telepathy between twins."
“I see,” Li Changzhou nodded. “It’s because you like her that you’re communicating with me telepathically. That makes sense.”
"Does that make sense? Why do you like her?"
"That makes sense why I kept staring at her legs."
"That's your own hobby, brother. What does it have to do with twins?"
During their quick conversation, Yang Qinglan, who was walking ahead, had already changed her clothes, transforming from a fashionable young woman into a lithe mountain climbing girl.
“Mr. Li,” she turned around, “would you please walk in front?”
"I don't object, but what are your reasons?" Li Changzhou asked curiously.
"You're worried you're staring at her butt, aren't you?" Li Qianxia didn't hold back in smearing her brother.
Yang Qinglan glanced at Li Qianxia quietly, and Li Qianxia immediately fell silent, pretending to survey her surroundings.
