Chapter 14: In order to complete the mission, you have to sacrifice your first marriage
But he still had to complete his mission, and he wanted to return to the real world alive. Even though he really sympathized with the mermaid princess and wanted to do something for her...
Chu Chengan slapped himself twice to keep himself awake.
Yan Qing, who was speaking, was so frightened that he felt that the system not only sealed his mouth, but also made him useless by judging whether he had a brain or not.
Their wedding date was arranged by the ceremonial officer in the palace and the kings and queens of the two countries, which saved them a lot of trouble.
"This is a fake marriage, a fake marriage!" Chu Cheng'an said this to himself. He was still thinking if he should answer truthfully if his future partner asked him whether it was his first or second marriage?
Even though the other person might not know, and it was impossible for her to know, Chu Chengan still felt guilty towards the other person.
Yan Qing rolled her eyes: "I am the girl, okay? I didn't even ask you for reputation damages."
Now that there are no idle people around, they dare to talk like this.
Chu Chengan: "Reputation damages? How much do you want?"
He thought about how much living expenses he had left for the month.
He instinctively reached into his trouser pocket to take out his cell phone, but of course he didn't find it. He couldn't even find a hole in the prince's elaborate dress to put his hand into.
Chu Chengan wanted to check the amount on his phone, but suddenly he remembered, "Eh? Wait, that's not right. Shouldn't the system pay you a high reputation loss fee? Do I have to pay for this out of my own pocket? Not only do I lose myself, I also have to pay the money..." After saying this, he was afraid that Yan Qing would think he was a scumbag, even though he didn't do anything wrong. It was all the system's fault for arranging their marriage...
He was about to say something when he was interrupted by Yan Qing.
"That's enough. Leave this game as soon as possible. This is the biggest loss you will ever pay me."
I'm not the kind of person who would fuss over this.
As time went by, the wedding was being arranged in an orderly manner. Wedding invitations were sent to dozens of neighboring countries. It was estimated that their wedding banquets could be held in dozens of cities.
Except that the mermaid princess was not seen.
Chu Chengan thought that it would be best if the mermaid princess didn't show up, so as to save both of them from being sad.
I hope the mermaid princess can figure it out sooner, and after everything ends and turns into bubbles, she can find someone who is truly suitable to be with in the next life.
This peaceful and harmonious atmosphere continued until the wedding day, and there was no bloody scene around, which was truly incredible.
Chu Cheng'an looked at this world where he had traveled for several months, and sighed that the unconventional city and the pristine nature made him feel more comfortable.
Although he doesn't have a mobile phone to browse information, his daily life is just running and exercising to keep fit. He has not fallen behind in this world, and there is actually not much change.
The church bells rang, and Chu Cheng'an had numbly allowed the maids to change him into his wedding dress. Now, surrounded by guests, he was about to go to the church to swear an oath with Princess Hannah.
As he was approaching the majestic gate, he saw a rabbit appear silently on the roof of the church.
This level of obesity, this one can't even wear pants...
The fake smile on Chu Chengan's face was about to twitch.
Sure enough, the next second, the other world opened up, and now only Chu Chengan and the rabbit that claimed to be a system elf were left around.
The fat rabbit did not jump down, but continued to look down at Chu Chengan.
"How's the mission going?"
Chu Chengan touched his head and said shyly, "The mission in this fairy tale world is almost over. Why do I feel that this A-level story game is much easier than the previous one?"
The previous level was initially a fairy tale world of C-level difficulty. Although it was changed to B-level difficulty in the end because the rabbit was angry, now thinking about it, the part where I was chased by the old witch was like escaping from death.
The fat rabbit smiled wickedly when he heard this: "Oh? Really? Think about it carefully with your rusty little head."
Chu Chengan was very straightforward: "It is indeed very simple. I have completed the main storyline as required... No, I have definitely not read the original book. You still have to give me the reward for completing the game."
"Reward?" The fat rabbit tilted his head in confusion. "What good things are you thinking about? I'm here to give you a mission. To be precise, your fairy tale world has just begun."
"Ah? Then those past few months were wasted? I even experienced a shipwreck and almost died!"
Chu Chengan expressed his dissatisfaction, but was graciously ignored by the rabbit.
"Isn't that to give you a chance to experience a different kind of wonderful life? Well, without further ado, let's get straight to the main storyline. As everyone knows, your wedding to Princess Hannah is about to begin, but there is someone else who loves you deeply, and she is about to come and force you to marry her. You are about to enter a Shura plot, who will you, the amorous person, choose as your partner?"
"Bullshit! How could I be amorous? I am the most loyal!" Chu Chengan expressed even deeper dissatisfaction and protest.
The rabbit didn't care about him. After finishing the lines, it disappeared. Then it waited for the two princesses to fight for the scumbag prince.
Chu Cheng'an was at a loss as he was welcomed into the church by the wedding procession.
Yan Qing had already taken her designated seat, already dressed in her wedding dress and beautifully made-up. When she saw Chu Chengan's absent-minded expression, she felt that something was going to happen to him.
Although she cursed her pig teammate in her heart, she still took a few steps forward as if to welcome the groom.
There was constant noise of booing all around, mostly from Prince William's sisters and Princess Hannah's brothers and sisters. Those who were still unmarried all wanted to have the bouquet in the bride's hand for a while, so as to usher in an unknown happy marriage in the coming year.
The church priest gestured for everyone to be quiet, and then music started. Looking back, barefoot girls in white medieval dresses were already playing the harp.
The priest finished reading the wedding speech solemnly and sacredly. It was time to ask the bride and groom for their wishes, but he observed Prince William for a long time.
This prince is unexpectedly immature. Although he is handsome, he gives people the feeling that he doesn't care about his wife at all.
Yan Qing glared at Chu Chengan imperceptibly. If the fairy tale world couldn't be completed perfectly this time, it would be his fault.
"Your Highness? Your Highness?" The priest gently called back the prince's soul.
"Ah? Oh, I get it..." Chu Cheng'an knew that it was time to recite the series of carefully crafted lines he had memorized early in the morning, about how he met Hannah, how they fell in love, etc.
But at this time, there was a sudden thunder and lightning outside, and a thunderstorm. What happened? Didn't the astronomer predict that today would be a rare good day? Although their predictions are always inaccurate.
The rumble of thunder meant that even if Chu Chengan spoke out his words now, the audience would not be able to hear a word. The autumn rain would pass soon, so he might as well wait until it passed before speaking.
He looked at Yan Qing, and her expression clearly encouraged him to finish reading quickly and not delay!
Chu Chengan had no choice but to bite the bullet, regardless of whether the guests could hear him. They were not here to get married, they were here to complete a mission.
At this moment, the sea water from far away suddenly rushed up, and some coastal cities and towns were flooded before they could even react.
The watchtower rang the alarm bell, but the soldiers were still immersed in the joy of friendship between the two countries, and the bell was rang several dozen seconds late.
Judging from the shape of the waves, it is clear that a tsunami that has not occurred in hundreds of years is about to engulf the city without any warning.
Fortunately, their city is located at a high altitude, on a high mountain, and is far away. There are hundreds of mountains and dozens of cities between them.
Even if the tsunami is powerful, they still have enough time to evacuate the population, but the marriage cannot be completed today.
After hearing the alarm, everyone around fled.
Yan Qing said: "I knew it wouldn't be so easy for us to get away with it."
Chu Chengan suggested: "Why don't we just follow the crowd and escape?"
As Chu Cheng'an fled, he wondered what the next mission would be. It was impossible for them, mortals, to fight against natural disasters, right? How could they prevent a tsunami?
Suddenly Chu Chengan came to his senses. He remembered what Rabbit had told him before, that the mermaid princess would come to snatch the bride, and they would face a Shura scene...
This...should he tell Yan Qing about this information? How could he say such a thing?
"Actually, Rabbit gave me a hint about the mission before..."
"What? Why did you tell us such important information only now? Can we still complete the mission perfectly if we are delayed? Tell me what the mission is?"
"...Yes, the mermaid princess will come to grab the bride in a while."
"..." This time it was Yan Qing's turn to roll her eyes. "I say, why do all the good things happen to you stinky men? What's so good about men? Why do we girls have to cooperate with you boys to do these ridiculous tasks in the fairy tale world?"
They ran to a flat refuge camp on the top of the mountain. This was a sturdy facility built by the kingdom to prevent natural disasters and could only accommodate 10,000 people.
William and Hannah were of distinguished status, so the soldiers prepared a fast track for them.
After entering the building, Chu Chengan felt something was wrong and he wanted to go out.
"We took shelter inside. There are innocent people outside. How many people will die? I never thought that the mermaid princess would kill so many innocent people for a prince. This is really contrary to the image of a fairy tale princess! I'm going to go out and tell her that even if she is an NPC, she can't do this."
"Are you out of your mind?" Yan Qing stopped him. "If you get caught, our mission will fail! Do you remember how this storybook ends? Prince William is going to marry a human princess, not a mermaid princess! We can't let the mermaid princess succeed, we can't let her find you. As long as she can't marry you within a certain period of time, she will turn into bubbles that are swallowed by the ocean. The system gave us an A-level game world to test whether we can survive a catastrophe."
Is this really the case? Can I pass the level by hiding from all the creatures outside? Watching everything in this world gradually disappear, the population is getting smaller and smaller...
By the way, why haven't they seen Lu Zhenqiu yet? He should have come to this world as well? Is he hiding in the refugee camp now?
