"Meimei, do you really not want to ask me why I made a mistake back then?"
"I don't want to~ Didn't I say before? If you want to talk about it, just tell me directly. If talking about this past will burden you, then you can hold off on talking about it for now."
Mingmei shook her head, her eyes devoid of any negative emotions, so clear that they made one feel ashamed of oneself.
“Since you’ve come out of there, it means you’ve paid for your sins. Besides… you’ve met my father and my uncle. If you really had something wrong with yourself, I don’t need you to explain. My dad and the others would be enough to make you suffer.”
Although Mingmei's inner voice had already grabbed the melon and was ready to take a big bite, the person opposite her was Mu Chen. Seeing the way he was suddenly staring at her seriously, Mingmei suddenly didn't want him to say it out loud.
I feel like this story isn't suitable for her to hear right now.
"Sigh~" Mingmei suddenly sighed, her hands supporting her chin as she looked at Mu Chen with a different expression.
"What's wrong?"
It was the first time that Mingmei had stared at him like that, and Mu Chen felt a little embarrassed.
"Based on your analysis, who else can compare to that insect's situation and still make him wary of using you as an experiment?"
Mingmei then steered the conversation back to business.
"This is just my guess. If he still does anything to me or the BOSS in the next game, it will probably confirm that there is something in these games that he is very wary of."
"Hmm..." Mingmei nodded thoughtfully, her gaze wandering, occasionally glancing at Mu Chen. Seeing her like this, Mu Chen couldn't help but ask her what was wrong.
"I am, I am talking about... you said my uncle 'exploited' those vicious spiritual beings severely. The Zerg's spiritual power is naturally greater and stronger than that of humans. Over the years, he has found a loophole to exploit. If there really is such a person as you described, how strong would he be, and what kind of person would he be?"
"This... I don't know either."
That's a question only Yan Hui can answer, but the game ended very late today, and they have class early tomorrow morning, so this matter will have to be postponed...
Mingmei slept soundly through the night. When she went downstairs in the morning, Mu Chen handed her breakfast: soft, creamy pancakes spread with a thick layer of sweet and sour jam, along with warm milk. Mingmei ate with great relish.
While eating her pancake, her bright gaze fell on Lu Gui, who had also come downstairs to pick up his sister, but the expression on Lu Gui's face was quite sour.
"Did you come together?"
"No. We bumped into each other on the way."
Mingmei and Muchen went ahead, and on the way, Mingmei couldn't help but ask, "I noticed that Lu Gui's expression wasn't good, what's wrong?"
"I heard that Lu Gui entered the game yesterday and was killed and sent out because the plot was so drastically altered."
"Oh, how terrible."
Mingmei turned her head and glanced at Lu Xiaoyao, who seemed to still be sleeping in and hadn't gotten up or come downstairs yet. She had a feeling that Lu Xiaoyao was going to get a "lecture" from her brother again today.
...
"My brother...you're saying it was his own bad luck to encounter the door-opening murder, how can you blame it on me?"
At lunchtime, Lu Xiaoyao specifically asked Mingmei to join them, and also invited Wang Wenfei and the other two to eat together.
“I even made a special inquiry. Hu Yue and the others entered the newbie village last night just like us. My brother took my character.”
"Pfft, cough cough..."
Wang Wenfei couldn't hold back for a moment. It turns out that Zhen Po's case wasn't an isolated incident.
"Hmph, he was just too naive and got tricked right from the start, ending up in the Zhang mansion." Lu Xiaoyao chewed on her straw and said, "I just gave him a disdainful look, and he hit me on the head! What if he makes me stupid?"
Mingmei and Wang Wenfei exchanged a glance without saying a word. How stupid!
Can Lu Xiaoyao break through the lowest level of stupidity?
"I heard Mu Chen say it's a close-range kill right from the start..."
Mingmei recalled what Mu Chen had said, which had some similarities to what Lu Xiaoyao had said.
"Well, my brother said that after he was sent to the Zhang family mansion, he ran away and resisted, and then he started fighting with the young master Zhang."
Mingmei: "..."
I wonder what level Young Master Zhang would be at without Mu Chen's control, but judging from what Lu Xiaoyao said, Lu Gui didn't last long and died directly, it seems that Young Master Zhang himself is a very powerful character.
As Lu Xiaoyao spoke, she mentioned which games the people she knew had entered in the past few days, made a list, and then said, "Hey. I've seen these, and they all say there are traces of the Zerg. We can do our homework before we go back, and then we can go in and wreak havoc."
"But isn't it supposed to be that once the game discovers traces of the Zerg, it will find the data and upload it, then the game will close and restore the data, and everything will be fine after that? Why do we still need to do all this?"
Wang Wenfei is my sister. This is the message we received from the backstage after they cleared the game last night.
"Yes, but they got in, they just didn't clear the level. They knew there were traces of the Zerg, but they couldn't find the real traces before they were all wiped out..."
Lu Xiaoyao sighed in amazement, "Our victory yesterday was purely coincidental. After all, that BOSS was incredibly powerful and willing to cooperate with us. If we had encountered someone uncooperative... like my brother, you see, it would have been a completely different story..."
The three exchanged glances, and Mingmei and Wang Wenfei took the game list from Lu Xiaoyao and looked at it carefully. However, upon closer inspection, Mingmei noticed something unusual...
There was no game on these game lists that involved making insect meat.
If her initial guess was correct, the escaped Zerg must have come from the game "God of Cookery"—that highly intelligent Starfire Zerg General.
