The cold voice was even colder than the night sky. Mu Jingfeng turned around, frowning in confusion, "What are you trying to do now?"

"Nothing, just wanted to say something harsh." She looked up at Mu Jingfeng, her icy gaze like that of a venomous snake, sending chills down one's spine.

"Don't regret it later."

In her previous life, Mu Qingyun had also said something similar to her father.

Later, her father died.

Upon hearing this, Mu Jingfeng felt that the person in front of him had become somewhat different. Although it was still Mu Qingyun, looking into those eyes, he always felt a kind of indescribable feeling.

"Hmph, I never regret anything. Keep that cowardly feeling to yourself." He frowned, a strange palpitation suddenly rising in his heart.

He snorted softly, suppressing his emotions, turned around, boarded the aircraft that was there to pick him up, and quickly drove away from the area.

As an emperor of an empire, he would normally be accompanied by a large number of people when he traveled.

The person he was to meet today involved imperial secrets, so he concealed his itinerary and only brought a trusted subordinate.

It was almost dawn, and he had to hurry back.

...

After staring at the window where Mu Jingfeng's face was no longer visible for a few seconds, Mu Qingyun rubbed her temples, but her gaze drifted toward the railing beside her.

"Come out, how much longer are you going to hide?"

She had noticed the person standing there early on, but since Mu Jingfeng was standing by the window, she didn't feel comfortable speaking up.

The barrier shifted slightly and was gently pushed aside. Kazel looked at Mu Qingyun, who was staring intently at him, and smiled awkwardly. "Looks like I don't have long to live."

"Why do you say that?" She lowered her gaze, then casually patted the seat next to her, gesturing for Kazel to come and sit down.

"Now that I know the secrets of the empire, how can I possibly survive?" Kazel slowly walked towards her and sat down beside her. "Was that the king you were talking to just now?"

"Yeah, he gave me ten days to leave here, or he'll kill me." Mu Qingyun tilted her head and shrugged nonchalantly, seemingly not taking Mu Jingfeng's words seriously.

Seeing her nonchalant attitude, Kazel frowned. "Although it's inappropriate to say this now, I still have to remind you that although the military academy is not under his control, killing a contestant in the trials would be an easy thing."

"So?" she asked, raising an eyebrow.

“So I can help you hunt enough virtual points as soon as possible. You can go out now.” Kazel looked down at her. “How about it?”

Upon hearing this, Mu Qingyun did not reply immediately. She stared at the ceiling for a long time before softly saying, "You mean the military academy is not under his jurisdiction?"

“Yes, if you can become the first commander, he won’t be able to do anything to you, and he might even treat you with utmost respect and beg you to come back,” Kazel said.

Hearing his words, Mu Qingyun narrowed her eyes.

Unlike her father, Mu Jingfeng was different. After the incompetent crown prince was killed in the palace intrigue, her father began to value ability. He would favor whichever son could shoulder great responsibilities.

But Mu Jingfeng is obsessed with Mu Xueyao. Even if Mu Xueyao dies, he won't consider anyone else. It's almost impossible for anyone to climb up in his ranks based on their abilities and methods.

But status, power, and money are all very important foundations for one's life. If she wants to avenge Mu Jingfeng today, she must find another way.

Suddenly, she remembered what Su had discussed with her before.

Although she didn't care before, now that she's gone through this process, she's starting to have some expectations. She hopes that Su Qiluo will really take a liking to her and choose to mentor her.

"Okay, I understand."

She gave a curt reply, then turned to look at Kazel. "Then, I'll leave it to you."

“No problem, we’re friends, helping a friend is only right.” Kazel chuckled, glancing at the straw mat beneath her. “After you leave, this house is mine.”

"Can."

Kazel's words reminded her that when she was building the house, she thought that there were still a few months left, which was neither a long nor a short time.

Secondly, she suddenly discovered seaweed, and since there were some discarded bricks in the area, she wanted to try her hand at building, so she started constructing it.

Unexpectedly, Mu Jingfeng's sudden mishap caused her to give up the house she hadn't lived in for long.

Okay, let's put this debt on Mu Jingfeng's head too, and settle it together later.

...

The next morning, Kazel watched as the three people who had just woken up walked out of the enclosure.

None of the three noticed that the virtual dots above their heads were increasing rapidly.

Mu Qingyun recovered just before dawn. As soon as she recovered, she seized the time to go out and hunt virtual creatures.

When the first rays of sunlight shine on the earth in the early morning, that's when virtual creatures are most active.

"Where's Brother Mu?" Xiong Ruoyou asked, her eyes red and swollen.

Although she seemed fine yesterday, she felt uncomfortable whenever she was alone, and when she felt uncomfortable, she wanted to cry. In the end, she cried herself to sleep.

And so, her eyes looked like this the next day.

“She went to hunt virtual creatures,” Kazel replied, but his gaze remained fixed on Su the entire time.

Perhaps Sue can be of great help.

"She has some things to do. She needs to hunt down a thousand virtual points within ten days and get off this deserted island within ten days."

"Ten days?"

Ten days?

Kazel's words stunned not only the three people present, but also the viewers in the live stream.

[Did I hear that right? Ten days? Is Brother Mu trying to become a god or ascend to heaven? I remember they only had two hundred or so, and they hunted down more than seven hundred in ten days, this... this...]

[Enough said, I'll just say this: if Brother Mu can hunt a thousand within ten days, I'll order a huge bouquet of ornamental roses and propose to him on my knees at the trial exit!]

[Um, upstairs, are you a girl?]

Get lost, you're the girl, I'm a 24k pure man!

"...Well, although, there's really no need for that."

...

"Why?" Su raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised by Kazel's words. More than 700 in ten days, that's an average of more than 70 per day.

There are 24 hours in a day. If you take away 10 hours for sleeping and eating, there are still 14 hours left. That's more than 70 hours in 14 hours, which is an average of 6 hours per hour.

Divided among the four of them, each person would have to hunt down at least two animals per hour.

Are you crazy?

The daily release of virtual creatures is fixed. Even if they don't rest, where will they get so many virtual creatures to kill?

Moreover, this isn't a place where virtual creatures are released in large numbers; not all virtual creatures will appear here.

"I can't say because of this person." Kazel shook his head, looking like he was saying, "You don't need to ask, I will never tell you."
