Bai Chulan truly hadn't expected that Ruan Tian's superpowers had evolved to this extent.
While he was slightly stunned, Ruan Tian had already shown Bai Chulan the shop with the protective shield.
"Look! Isn't it beautiful!"
Sensing Ruan Tian's pride, Bai Chulan turned his head slightly, looked at the smile on her face, and nodded gently.
"Yes, it's really good-looking and amazing."
The upgraded house is obviously different from the one before. Not only is the area of the house much larger, but it also has many more floors, and there is a lot more furniture and decoration inside.
If they weren't currently on an open rooftop, the sudden construction of this tall building would have attracted countless zombies.
At the same time, Bai Chulan also discovered something interesting.
He circled Ruan Tian's shop a few times, his eyes gradually understanding, and he smiled and said:
"This building is a solid, weightless structure that you can actually touch with your fingers, and it feels very high quality; it's not a shoddy construction."
That's very interesting.
Unbeknownst to him, Bai Chulan's eyes gradually turned golden as he stared intently at the house and circled it several times.
As he moved, Ruan Tian and Jing Zhenxu followed closely behind him like two little chicks.
The group wandered around for quite a while, until finally Jing Zhenxu couldn't take it anymore. He frowned and asked:
"After all this going around in circles, is it still not done?"
Bai Chulan stopped and said, "This house is very interesting. When I look at it with my True Eye, I can see that there is something covering the house."
Upon hearing his words, Ruan Tian blurted out, "Doesn't it look just like electronic code!"
"How did you know?" Bai Chulan turned around in surprise and glanced at Ruan Tian.
Ruan Tian coughed. "It's just a feeling."
Because she herself is an NPC, she is very sensitive to these kinds of things.
It seems this shop... might actually be a product of a game, just like in real life.
Ruan Tian suddenly realized something: was her body an illusion?
She immediately turned her head and asked Inomoto Masao for a dagger.
"Could you please let me use the dagger?"
"Hmm?" Jing Zhenxu did not refuse. He nodded and then handed his dagger to Ruan Tian.
Ruan Tian took the dagger and slashed her own arm.
But before the knife could land on his arm, it was blocked by both Jing Zhenxu and Bai Chulan.
"Ruan Tian, are you crazy?"
Neither of them expected Ruan Tian to do this suddenly. How could they allow something to happen to Ruan Tian right under their noses?
"I'm just giving it a try."
What's there to try?
Under strong opposition from Jing Zhenxu and Bai Chulan, Ruan Tian had no choice but to withdraw her hand and prepare to find an opportunity in private to see what was wrong with her body.
Ruan Tian thought back carefully. From the beginning of the apocalypse until now, thanks to the protection of her target and the defensive mechanism of this little cart, she was practically immortal.
I didn't even suffer any wounds, not even a scratch.
This kind of experience would be impossible for most people, but Ruan Tian did it.
Upon further reflection, she discovered something even more terrifying!
Although the task the system gave her was to successfully get the target to thank her, thereby gaining gratitude points.
This doesn't seem strange at first glance, but originally it was supposed to be her protecting her targets so that they would be grateful to her.
But now, everything has changed. Her relationship with them has become different; everything has changed.
Ruan Tian's brows furrowed little by little. What exactly did these tasks mean?
Everything, from the initial written agreement, has gradually transformed into the strange scene we see today.
Ruan Tian felt a chill run down her spine as she thought about it, as if there was something unseen behind her, pushing her relentlessly.
Ruan Tian felt a chill run through her body, and then she thought about what had happened to the system. She guessed that everything that happened to her here was being watched closely by those unseen eyes.
Bai Chulan noticed that Ruan Tian's mood was off, so he immediately asked:
"How are you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Ruan Tian shook her head, a look of confusion flashing in her eyes, and couldn't help but ask the system:
"System, are you there?"
The system's voice came through quickly:
[My host is still here, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?]
Ruan Tian didn't speak, but the system sensed her bad mood and gently comforted her:
[It's alright, host. We've known each other for so long now, you can tell me anything, don't keep it all to yourself.]
Upon hearing this, Ruan Tian sighed, "This is not something you can know. What if it crashes your computer again?"
The last few times, the system crashed, and when I came back, the whole system seemed a bit off.
Ruan Tian will not allow the system to be put in danger again because of her own actions.
It was precisely because they had been together for so long that she didn't want the system to get hurt.
"What's wrong?" Jing Zhenxu was also worried about Ruan Tian. He moved closer and stared at the expression on Ruan Tian's face.
But before he could even take a few glances, Bai Chulan pushed his face away.
"If you want to look, then look. Why are you getting so close?"
"Is this what you call close?" Jing Zhenxu glanced at Bai Chulan and accused her mercilessly, "I think it's clearly you who are too close to Ruan Tian, right? What right do you have to criticize me?"
The two started arguing again, which brought Ruan Tian back to reality.
"Okay, okay, stop arguing!"
Ruan Tian quickly stopped the two people and whispered:
"The most crucial thing now is how to get through this difficult time."
Actually, there was something else Ruan Tian didn't say. The moment she discovered that the house was also code, she felt dizzy for a moment. It was as if she had discovered some taboo, and she was wanted by the whole world.
The feeling was so surreal that Ruan Tian was slow to react.
After asking the system, a bold idea suddenly popped into Ruan Tian's mind. She abruptly raised her head and looked up at the sky.
The sky was like a huge blue gem, so pure and clear. Who could have imagined that such a beautiful sky would soon be gradually swallowed up by the blood-red moon?
The blue sky shimmered with an intoxicating light, like a dreamlike painting. If it were before, Ruan Tian would definitely have praised the sky for being beautiful, but now she couldn't utter a single word of praise.
Instead, I felt a chill run through my body. Was this really the sky?
Ruan Tian raised her hand to her forehead, and murmured to herself:
"Perhaps... I'm still in a game right now."
