Chapter 636 [(*^▽^*)]
Lin Leyou just looked at him like that, then slowly reached out his hand, placed it on Xue Rui's stomach through his clothes, and gently pinched it, teasingly saying, "Feels nice."
He could even feel the muscles under his hand trembling slightly, which showed that Xue Rui was definitely holding back. He couldn't help but laugh out loud, and after touching him hard a few times, he withdrew his hand.
How are you feeling?
Seeing him withdraw his hand, Xue Rui secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If he had continued touching her, she might not have been able to resist. "Want more?"
Lin Leyou had already lay down, ready to let him go, but Xue Rui was still being stubborn. Since that's the case…
He turned to lie on his side, casually placing his hand on him, slowly moving it along his waist and abdomen. "How could that be? I was just thinking of changing positions. Oh, by the way, I'll touch mine, you go to sleep first?"
Xue Rui's eyes were a little red. How could he possibly fall asleep like that?
Lin Leyou withdrew her hand. "Go to sleep. I won't bother you anymore. I'll keep watch."
Today is the fourth day, and things are definitely not going to be peaceful. Moreover, he didn't seem to care about what the man in red who came to his door said before Xue Rui arrived, but he definitely took it to heart.
He would warn himself to be careful and pay attention to safety, which means he knows he will encounter many dangers, or he is subtly reminding himself of something.
Given that this community is within his patrol and management area, he must have discovered something in this community and came specifically to inform him.
What could possibly be in this residential area...? Could it be that someone has laid a trap here, waiting for someone to fall into it and then kill them?
Because of what had just happened, Xue Rui didn't notice the subtle expression on Lin Leyou's face. Instead, he pulled him into his arms and said, "You should go to sleep first."
His blood felt like it was boiling; if he were still in his home in the Happiness Residential Area, he would have made his move. Unfortunately…
Lin Leyou felt his slightly burning body temperature and revealed a meaningful smile. "Alright, as you said, I'm going to sleep now. Just don't do anything strange while I'm asleep."
Xue Rui: "No, it won't happen."
Lin Leyou closed his eyes and went to sleep. The two of them didn't actually need to sleep for too long now, but they still had to sleep.
Just in case, Lin Leyou took out his golden defensive gear and placed it between the two of them while sleeping, so that if they encountered danger while sleeping, they would have some buffer time.
Lin Leyou fell asleep soon after, leaving only Xue Rui awake. He looked at the protective shield prop placed between the two of them, and then at Lin Leyou sleeping in his arms.
Thinking about what Lin Leyou said earlier, that we shouldn't do strange things while he's asleep, would touching his face be considered strange? Definitely not.
He reached out and touched his face with a self-righteous air, then withdrew his hand. After a while, he touched it again. Fortunately, he was afraid of waking Lin Leyou. After touching him twice, he took out his phone and started browsing some news about the city.
News reports are always the same; apart from the usual news, the most common reports are things like "someone died at a certain time and place today."
People speculate about how these people died, what rules were triggered, and how they were killed. Under each similar news article, countless people exchange their experiences.
Ming Fanxing was constantly refreshing the comments when suddenly he saw a strange comment flash by.
Why work so hard to improve your ranking?
Huh? What's this?
Xue Rui thought he had misread it and went back to look for the comment that had flashed by earlier, but this time he couldn't find it anywhere. He searched and searched, but found nothing.
Could I have really misread it?
Xue Rui searched for a while longer, but still found nothing. Just as he was about to skip this and continue browsing the news and comments, he suddenly thought of a way and commented with this sentence.
It disappeared in less than a second, without even a notification that the comment had been deleted; it simply vanished. But the comment at least existed for a fraction of a second.
So the comments he just saw are definitely real. Ranking? What ranking? Striving for a higher ranking?
Xue Rui started posting in the comments section how to kill more people in a short time, and many kind-hearted people told him what to do.
Xue Rui then told them very tactfully that it wasn't enough, not enough at all.
These people started talking about methods that were dangerously close to breaking the rules, and as he watched these increasingly dangerous comments, he probably came to a conclusion.
Striving for a high ranking is extremely difficult, and being at the top definitely has its advantages! Otherwise, these people wouldn't be so crazy, appearing even crazier than they are now.
Furthermore, it is forbidden to discuss any topics related to rankings online, but it is permissible to discuss how to kill more people. People who want a high ranking hope to kill more people. As long as someone emphasizes online that they want to kill as many, many as possible with no upper limit, everyone will understand their true intentions.
As Xue Rui kept reviewing these comments, he roughly understood what was going on: rankings? Are rankings important? Why would they be important? If rankings are based on the number of kills, what's the point of a high or low ranking?
He can't ask these questions now, and even if he did, he wouldn't get any answers because it's not allowed to ask them online. If he asked someone in person, he probably wouldn't get any answers either.
Xue Rui didn't ask any unnecessary questions online. Instead, he kept exchanging ideas with these netizens about how many people had been killed, and it wasn't until more than two hours later that they finally finished.
He put down his phone wearily. What was the point of rankings anyway...? Were they some kind of hidden quest?
That said, they haven't triggered any hidden quests yet, so it seems that this ranking is definitely based on hidden quests.
Since it's a hidden quest, it's not mandatory. They've already done a great job clearing the main storyline in the 3S difficulty dungeon, and now they just need to survive until midnight on the seventh day.
With so many special NPCs secretly watching them, they absolutely cannot let their guard down, so for the time being, they don't need to think about this matter.
Another half hour passed, and Lin Leyou woke up on his own. He patted Xue Rui groggily, "It's your turn to sleep."
Xue Rui was indeed feeling quite tired. He didn't tell Lin Leyou about the rankings and simply fell asleep. Lin Leyou continued to lean against him without getting up, just like Xue Rui, constantly refreshing the city's news on her phone.
However, he hadn't seen any related news. In fact... if Xue Rui were to check the comments he had made with others before, he would find that most of those comments had been deleted.
Lin Leyou watched for three hours straight, and even after Xue Rui woke up, he didn't see any comments like Xue Rui's. In his opinion, the situation online was no different from a few days ago.
It was morning. After Xue Rui got up, Lin Leyou stretched and got up as well. He didn't put the defensive items back into his backpack, but kept them close to his body.
Lin Leyou said, "This is the fourth day. I thought there would be danger coming after midnight."
Nothing unexpected happened until they woke up. It seemed that the special NPCs didn't intend to approach them directly, but instead went to find other players first.
"So? Are we going to look for those special NPCs today? Especially the one who raises the little turtle, and the one we met in the mall."
Speaking of the guy who keeps the little turtle, they both got angry. Of course, the guy they met in the mall was even more difficult to deal with. They went to his place several times, but each time they returned empty-handed.
They could basically confirm that these two were special NPCs.
Xue Rui said, "Just keep an eye on them. They'll definitely come looking for us. Since that's the case, we don't need to go to all that trouble to find their weaknesses."
Lin Leyou said, "If we leave it alone, they will definitely unite, and then..."
Xue Rui said, "It's okay. Our props are just as good. If we team up... we can use prop nullification cards to fight them. For us, all we need to do is survive to the end, but they can't."
Lin Leyou said, "You're right. I have a gold-tier defensive item. With this, they absolutely can't hurt us, after all..."
True damage weapons aren't something you can just get whenever you want.
Of course, it was truly unbelievable that they each got one. Lin Leyou even suspected that he had gotten along well with Xue Rui, which was why he had benefited from Xue Rui's luck and obtained such good weapons and items.
Lin Leyou walked into the kitchen. "There are ingredients in the refrigerator. What would you like to eat?"
Xue Rui said, "I'll just eat boiled eggs. I'll make whatever you want to eat."
Lin Leyou said, "I'll eat the same thing as you. I can't eat the good stuff while you watch me eat."
"It's okay, I'll just watch you eat."
Lin Leyou said, "No need. I feel awkward and can't eat if you do that."
Xue Rui paused for a moment, then said, "Alright."
In the end, Xue Rui made two bowls of noodles, adding a lot of things, but no sugar. Speaking of which, you don't need to add sugar when cooking noodles, so why did Xue Rui say he wanted to eat boiled eggs in the first place?
Lin Leyou looked at the two fried eggs on top of the bowl; the bright orange yolks looked quite appetizing.
After enjoying a delicious breakfast, the two began discussing what to do with the rest of the time.
Lin Leyou: "We've already completed the last of the ten rules. Now we just need to survive until the instance ends, so we don't need to go out anymore, right?"
Xue Rui said, "Those special NPCs will definitely attack in groups. Maybe the two of us can find some other players to face them together, as long as we can buy some time."
Lin Leyou said, "They will definitely not let any of the dungeon participants go. At midnight on the fourth day, the number of people reported was 136. They probably went crazy killing everyone."
