Chapter 30: Nowhere to Go - Rest Area



Chapter 30: Nowhere to Go - Rest Area

In fact, when Nan Huan logged out of the game, he realized that he was feeling very uncomfortable.

She could feel that her condition in the game was much better than in the real world, and she wondered if it was because of the things she could absorb.

But the constant rush of the game, the stab in the chest, and the violent fluctuations in health.

After letting Nan Huan quit the game, he felt that his condition after returning to normal was much worse than before.

To give an example, it is like a dying person who, in the face of great danger, takes some kind of drug to speed up metabolism in order to stimulate the potential of his body.

On the surface, this person's abilities are stimulated to the maximum in a short period of time, but after the effect of the drug wears off, the body will only become worse due to over-consumption.

The dying person is Nan Huan, and the game copy or the substances that can be absorbed within the copy are drugs that speed up metabolism.

So she understood it when she just logged out of the game.

However, Nan Huan had not seen Bei Xi at that time, so he did not dare to relax completely. He held his breath all the way until he saw Bei Xi with his own eyes. Only then did he finally dare to relax.

Maybe it was because he finally found the person he had been thinking about day and night, and he knew that this time the other person would not disappear for no reason, so Nan Huan slept very soundly.

When she opened her eyes and realized that she was in a familiar and long-lost embrace, her half-awake mind seemed to be stunned for a moment.

Then in a moment, as if to feel the reality of the embrace, she curled herself up in it again.

As soon as there was a little movement here, Bei Xi opened his eyes.

He reached out and touched her forehead, then turned around to get the warm honey water that had been prepared long ago on the bedside table, "Are you awake? Do you want to drink some water first?"

Her movements were so skillful, as if she had done them countless times.

The fact is that she has done it countless times in the real world, so no matter how much time has passed, as long as the person in her arms appears, it is an instinct.

Nan Huan nodded without saying anything, letting the other person hold him up with one hand and feed him some water.

The movements of both of them were very natural and not deliberate, as if they had never been separated.

It was just that the glances of both parties, during that unintentional contact, implied their deep longing for each other and their joy of meeting again after a long separation.

After Nan Huan finished drinking the water and moistened his throat, he couldn't hold back any longer, "You owe me an explanation."

She had just woken up, with a thin layer of mist in her eyes. There was no accusation in her words, she was very calm and serene. She was just stating what she wanted, but she said it very seriously.

The president, who usually keeps a low profile and wouldn't even blink in the most dangerous situations, showed a rare wry smile on his face as he turned around and put down the cup.

After all, based on her understanding of Nan Huan, the calmer the other party was, the more serious the situation would be.

However, this kind of confrontation seemed to have appeared in her dreams countless times, so she didn't even think about it and set the tone for this conversation, "I didn't take the initiative to enter the game."

As she spoke, she stroked Nan Huan's hair, as if to comfort him, "On that business trip, I woke up from a nap and went straight into the game."

Nan Huan, who was held in her arms, concealed his expression well, but his tense body gradually relaxed as she spoke, as if he was relieved by this explanation.

However, Bei Xi stretched out two fingers and tapped Nan Huan's brows, imitating the other party's behavior just now, and teased, "You also owe me an explanation."

"Of course I didn't enter the game on my own initiative. I was in the bathroom getting ready to take a bath when I was pulled into the game."

Nan Huan naturally knew what Bei Xi cared about and did not hide it.

Their eyes met, and the hidden worry contained in them finally dissipated a little.

After so many years of tacit understanding, some things need no further explanation.

What Nan Huan cares about is whether Bei Xi would take the initiative to enter the game for the sake of his own health without even saying hello.

What Beixi cares about is that Nanhuan took the initiative to enter such a dangerous game in order to find his whereabouts.

However, the two of them understood that although they did not actively enter the game, the things they were worried about must be closely related to their current situation, otherwise how could there be so many coincidences.

It just so happened that they were the only two who entered this game passively.

"What about the others? How did they contact the game on their own initiative? And how come they took the initiative to enter this game? So many people disappeared in the real world at once, how come we don't have any news at all?"

After solving the problem that concerned her most, Nan Huan did not forget to exchange information with Bei Xi. After all, she didn't know much about the game now, and it was obvious that Bei Xi, who came in earlier than her, had an advantage in this regard.

Moreover, from the moment she entered the game and the system said "illegal login", Nan Huan realized that the way she entered the game might be different from others.

Bei Xi was already accustomed to her intelligence. A faint smile appeared on the corners of his lips. He pulled up the quilt that had slipped off during Nan Huan's movements, covering the other's somewhat excited little hands.

"Everyone in real life has their own troubles, more or less, even you and I are no exception."

Bei Xi's irrelevant words made Nan Huan a little confused, and there was more worry between his brows. Bei Xi stroked the other's face twice with his fingers and continued to explain.

"If you have troubles, you must have something to ask for. I think the game took advantage of the player's strong desires and signed a contract with the player. Under the control of the system, the player cannot reveal the content of the contract, but I guess it has something to do with the purpose of the game. Or maybe this game is just a transaction between the players. But I guess most players didn't expect such a serious life and death situation in the game when they signed the contract."

"Since the game is so powerful, I think it will definitely cover up the disappearance very well, or this is part of the contract itself."

"It's just that we two are different from other players. We haven't signed the so-called contract. So among so many players, it seems that we are the only two who are missing in real life."

Perhaps due to the limitations of the system, Bei Xi’s words were not explained in plain language, but Nan Huan still understood them.

The difference between them and others is that one is active and the other is passive. The one who actively enters the game may have been tricked into it by the system.

The system obviously reached some kind of agreement with the players, thereby manipulating the disappearance of those players so that the real world would not panic because of this incident, but she and Bei Xi were different.

So even though Nanhuan sent so many manpower and resources to look for Beixi after she left, no other related missing persons news was heard.

Perhaps it was because of this obsession that I entered the game.

In addition, Nan Huan thought that He'er and Bei Xi looked almost exactly the same, and he always felt that there might be some conspiracy behind this.

"How can you be sure that we are the only two who are different? What if there are others who have passively entered this game, but we don't know yet?"

After all, after Nan Huan came out of the dungeon game, he saw the scale of the rest area. With so many samples, even Bei Xi could not be 100% sure.

"Some time ago, news about the fragments of the Faith Totem appeared among the major guilds. This is the first time such news has appeared. The source of the news is still unclear, but you know, once the word "faith" comes out, all players will think of the purpose of the game. Regardless of whether it is true or not, they will always collect some information to confirm it."

"Then, you appeared at this time. It was the first time that players logged into the game in different batches. It was also the first time that the number of players in the original copy changed. It was the first time that the game copy was upgraded twice in a row. It was the first time that the game copy directly jumped from D-level to S-level. It was the first time that fragments really appeared. It was the first time that the game was broadcast to the whole server."

"You happened to encounter so many firsts. I don't believe it's a coincidence, so you must be different."

Bei Xi's tone was very firm. If all the coincidences were piled together, it would mean that there was obviously a driving force behind it. It seemed that only the game itself could mobilize all these forces.

"Besides, the guild I founded has a large player base. When entering the guild, I asked people to ask questions to confirm that all players had signed a contract before entering the game, so the sample size is already sufficient."

On this point, Nanhuan believed in Beixi's judgment.

Especially since she knew that Bei Xi was different even in real life, not to mention that she had just entered the game and met an NPC who looked exactly like her.

There is also the pattern on her arm and her strange skills, all of which fully demonstrate that there must be some secret connection between her, Beixi and the game.

Nan Huan frowned and suddenly asked, "How long has this game existed?"

“I don’t know.”

Beixi's voice was very certain, but the answer was beyond Nanhuan's expectations.

After all, although there are a large number of players, it shouldn't be too difficult to investigate a time, so how could it not be clear.

Perhaps knowing what Nan Huan was wondering about, Bei Xi squeezed his soft little hand and asked, "How long have I been missing in the real world?"

"Three months, what's wrong?"

Nan Huan didn't understand why the other party suddenly changed the subject.

"But it's been three years since I entered the game."

Bei Xi seemed to have known Nan Huan's answer long ago, so her expression remained calm as she further explained to him, "You have also seen the guild I built. It is so huge. How could it have reached this level in just three months?"

“And some players don’t live in the same era or time and space as we do, so the duration of the game is uncertain.”

"The only thing that is certain is that the power of games is much greater than we thought, and the duration of games is much longer than we thought."

Bei Xi's time in the game was not in vain. She was not a person who would just muddle through. She knew very well what Nan Huan's attitude would be after she left, so she had been collecting all kinds of information and wanted to get out of the game as soon as possible. After all, she didn't want Nan Huan to misunderstand that she left on her own initiative.

But it is undeniable that the more she investigated, the more she felt that the power of the game was much greater than she had imagined, so that the information she had learned now was just the tip of the iceberg.

Thinking of this, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in Bei Xi's eyes. Without the cover of her glasses, she looked even colder and more ruthless.

Perhaps subconsciously, he didn't want Nan Huan to see him like this, and soon this emotion was suppressed.

But when she lowered her head to look at Nan Huan, unexpectedly, the other party was not shocked by the sudden news or the power of the game that she got from just a few words.

Instead, he looked at himself with a strange look, one that contained pity, heartache, confusion and helplessness.

Compared with the unknown purpose of the game, the insidiousness of the deliberate setting, and the huge crisis that has just emerged, Nan Huan is more concerned about the fact that, in Bei Xi's cognition, his absence has not been just three months, but for three full years.

Looking at this almost exact replica of the manor and this familiar bedroom now, Nan Huan no longer felt any joy in his heart, but only bitterness.

Those thoughts that originally made me feel complacent because I thought that the other person had not forgotten me and was trying to create a similar environment as if I was still around, seemed to have changed in an instant.

For three years, she was trapped in this similar place. Every day and night when she was not there, she would think of the other person sitting in the study, reminiscing about the joy they once had.

How come I am covered in bruises from playing the game, but when I finally return to my bedroom, I find myself alone and unable to sleep?

After such a long time, has she never thought of giving up?

Nan Huan thought of the familiar actions of the other party helping him get up and drink water just now, and knew that Bei Xi was deliberately keeping all the habits she had when she lived with him.

But how skilled does one have to be to be perfect when meeting?

Big tears rolled out of Nan Huan's eyes one after another, like beads that had broken off the string, sliding down Nan Huan's face onto the white silk quilt, and then disappeared.

Nan Huan's emotions came so quickly that Bei Xi realized only later why he felt uncomfortable. This was her own negligence. She shouldn't have told him this, at least not when they had just reunited and he was not in good health.

Just when Bei Xi was feeling a little regretful, Nan Huan had already broken free from her hand, grabbed her collar, and kissed her desperately.

At this moment, it seemed that only such an action could make Nan Huan feel a little better.

She was so impulsive, so reckless, and her sacrificial action stirred the taut string in Bei Xi's mind, and she didn't forget to try to tease it a few times.

Bei Xi had no resistance at all and immediately took the initiative.

The surprise of the belated reunion, the joy and fear that had been suppressed deliberately, and the unreal feeling like a dream, were all pinned on a passionate kiss at this moment.

Bei Xi's calm mood throughout the night and those shameful thoughts that he had deliberately suppressed all vanished into thin air with one move from the other party.

The person she thought about day and night was now in her arms. Even though Bei Xi had warned herself several times in her mind that Nan Huan was not in good health, she still kissed him fiercely.

It seems that only in this way can I prove that the person who is tightly held in my arms at this moment really exists and is not just a dream.

The kiss was heavy. Nan Huan had been impulsive in moving forward, but ended up not knowing how to do it. He was like a child eager to eat candy, but before he could taste the sweetness, someone had already taken the initiative away from him.

His lips were numb from being kissed, and Nan Huan's slightly curled eyelashes began to tremble uncontrollably.

It's like the last few leaves hanging on the branches in the autumn wind, which are unwilling to fall despite such an attack.

Soon, the pale cheeks were stained with an unnatural blush.

She was kissed so hard that she could hardly breathe, her chest heaved up and down rapidly, her body couldn't stop going limp, but she was still held in the other man's arms.

The slightly swollen lips that were kissed were shining because of the bright water stains. When the lips opened, he couldn't help but let out a slight sound.

Bei Xi paused slightly for a moment as he held the other person's hand, loosened his grip a little, and let the soft person lean against him.

Then a light, gentle but very calm kiss fell on the eyelashes that still had a teardrop hanging on them.

Bitter tears are hidden in the hot and wet kiss.

The violent storm just now seemed to turn into drizzle and wind in an instant, spreading downward from Nan Huan's eyebrows and eyes, and finally falling on the corners of his lips.

It seemed like a comfort, but also like some kind of silent promise.

Nanhuan's confused heart gradually calmed down, like a small boat drifting on the turbulent river and sea, finally finding land to rest on.

"You don't know how happy I am to see you here, and you don't know how mean I was when we met again last night."

Letting Nan Huan, who was breathing slightly, lean on his shoulder and calm his breathing, Bei Xi suddenly spoke.

All the emotions that were usually suppressed by glasses now seemed to be fully revealed with that last layer of disguise.

A bitter, self-deprecating smile appeared on her face. "I know how dangerous this game is. I can even sense the conspiracy that we have just touched the tip of the iceberg. I know all this. It is such a dangerous place, I shouldn't feel happy about your arrival, but when I saw that moment, the first thing that came to my heart was joy."

Hearing this, Nan Huan, who had been holding Bei Xi's collar, couldn't help but tighten his hand, but his face was no longer sad like before, but instead was filled with blazing joy.

"Do you know what I've been thinking about during the three months you've been away from me?"

Nan Huan was a little short of oxygen from the kiss, and it took her a while to recover. She was a little short of breath, and spoke with a nasal tone like a child, which was very cute.

"I was thinking that when you were about to go on a business trip that day, I should have revealed that you were not going on a business trip, but were going to find a way for me to survive."

Bei Xi was silent for a rare moment. She had always thought that she had kept it a secret well, but she didn't expect that the person in her arms had such a keen mind.

"Then I will shamelessly follow you. Even if I disappear from this world quietly, at least we will be together."

Nan Huan originally felt that these words were too heavy for both of them, so one deliberately concealed it and the other pretended not to know.

But she has been regretting it for the past three months.

Nan Huan said this, and suddenly struggled to sit up from Bei Xi's arms, looking seriously into Bei Xi's eyes, "You know, if we are qualified to go to the end, I just want the two of us to be together, and I don't want to live a hundred years and be lonely for ten thousand years."

Nan Huan is not stupid, on the contrary she is very smart.

Although Bei Xi just said that he didn't understand it clearly, the contracts between other players and the game were also very vague about the content of the contracts and the nature of the game.

But I still found some clues. If this was a fair deal, the player would not be trapped in this game forever.

After all, achieving the purpose of the game and the players' own desires are two ends of the scale, and this transaction is only mediated by the game.

But this game can cause players to lose their lives at any time, and it eventually turns into a situation where one end of the scale is the goal that the game wants to achieve, and the other end is leaving this dangerous game and what the players themselves want. This is a competition between the two, which can be seen from the game's style of behavior.

Nanhuan doesn't think it will be merciful and harmonious, so a choice is necessary.

She didn't know whether the special situation between Bei Xi and herself would lead to a different ending, but if the two of them would face such a situation in the future, she had to give Bei Xi a heads-up and tell her that she would never exchange her life for her disappearance.

I have to admit that Bei Xi had such an idea, and she concealed it just now because she didn't want the other party to guess this, but she didn't expect that the other party would still notice it.

Seeing that he really couldn't avoid it, facing Nan Huan's wide eyes, Bei Xi had no choice but to respond, "I promise that there won't be a situation you don't like. Is this okay?"

She reached out and scratched Nan Huan's nose, as if she found his overly serious look adorable.

Seeing that the other party understood his feelings and agreed, Nan Huan breathed a sigh of relief and told her another thing, "Actually, regarding my physical condition, something happened in the game copy..."

Next, Nan Huan told Bei Xi that she could absorb some substances in the copy. Of course, she did not hide her current physical condition.

I also explained my speculations this morning about speeding up metabolism and the different degrees of backlash after playing the game.

"What if this method of speeding up metabolism is taken out of the game? Or maybe this method of metabolism is not what you think it is, which only works in the game. You know, I have never seen anyone's health points increase. Can you tell me in detail how the increased health points disappeared later?"

Bei Xi quickly discovered the key point. All her thoughts were based on Nan Huan's body.

Nan Huan can increase her health by absorbing those shadows, so as long as she can avoid losing this kind of health, she can leave the game with extra health.

This temporary way of speeding up metabolism becomes an instinct of the body, and naturally the situation of becoming weaker and weaker after leaving the game will not occur.

Maybe Nanhuan's health will get better because of this situation.

There was a strange light in Bei Xi's eyes.

Nan Huan naturally understood what she meant, but was still shocked by her idea.

When she used the potion to restore her health, she thought it was a system limitation, so her health could only increase to the original 0.1, but she ignored the fact that the previous increase of 0.01 was not on the same path as this 0.1.

In other words, if I had absorbed a little more purple-black shadow at that time, maybe my health points would have increased.

But at that time, the castle had returned to peace, so she forgot about the matter.

And she had a hunch that Bei Xi wouldn't like to hear that she risked her life to save an NPC who looked exactly like her in the game at this time.

She suddenly remembered that there were two witnesses to this incident. Nan Huan suddenly felt a chill running up her spine.

"I got injured in the fight and it fell off," Nan Huan was nervous but didn't dare to show it. He rounded off the number and found a suitable reason for the drop in health points.

Then, without waiting for Bei Xi to ask further questions, he quickly diverted the other party's attention, "I think the method you mentioned is very feasible. We can try it out in the next instance. Maybe it will work."

The two talked for a while, and Nan Huan took out the ordinary fragment of the faith totem and showed it to Bei Xi for research.

But just like in the game, no more clues were given.

"Don't think about it. It may not be time to activate it yet, just like the main quest of the game," Nan Huan, who had just woken up, looked a little overwhelmed after talking for a while.

She pressed the call bell at the bedside. "I'll ask Nineteen to bring in some food. It's all your favorite food. You can rest for a while after you finish eating. You don't have to worry about these things."

Nan Huan knew the condition of her body, and there was something she had to do, so she had to find a way to get Bei Xi away.

She lay down obediently, but her eyes turned cunningly.

After a while, Nineteen came into the bedroom carrying the prepared food. She did not show any surprise at anything in the bedroom. She just put the things away and went out.

Bei Xi held the bowl and coaxed Nan Huan to eat something, just like many times before, before letting her lie down again. "You should get some sleep first. There are still some things to deal with in the guild. I will come to see you later."

Nan Huan thought that was just right, he didn’t need to make excuses, he nodded obediently and closed his eyes under Bei Xi’s gaze.

Bei Xi held the person in his arms for a while, and when he noticed that his breathing had calmed down, he gently put the person on the bed, tucked in the quilt, and tiptoed out.

Nan Huan's ears, which had been perked up, moved, and he quietly got up after the sound outside the door disappeared for a while.

He picked up a shawl from Bei Xi's closet, opened the bedroom door, and sneaked out like a thief.

The layout here is exactly the same as her home, with the guest rooms on the fourth floor and the large conference room on the second floor, so as long as she moves quietly, she shouldn't be discovered.

As she said this, she almost bumped into Nineteen when she went downstairs.

The president had just asked me to guard the bedroom door a few minutes ago, fearing that the young lady would not be able to find the president after waking up. However, I didn't expect that the young lady was not asleep at all.

But Nineteen didn't have the courage to question, so he pretended not to know and asked, "Miss, you're awake now, are you looking for the president?"

Nan Huan was startled by the sudden appearance of the other party, and her pair of fair little hands couldn't stop patting her pounding heart.

"Is she in the conference room on the second floor?"

Nineteen nodded and prepared to take the other person downstairs, but he didn't expect Nan Huan to turn directly to the fourth floor.

"Which room do Xiaoxue and Li Shuai live in? I have something to say to them."

"It's in the two rooms on the east side of the fourth floor. Shall I take you there?"

Nan Huan nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that the meeting did not require their attendance. He still had time, so he did not refuse Nineteen's offer to lead the way.

When she arrived at Xiaoxue's room, she knocked on the door and went in, only to find that Li Shuai was also there.

Nineteen was very well-mannered and did not enter the room. He was considerate and helped the three people close the door to facilitate their conversation.

Nan Huan was very happy with the right time, right place and right people. He also sighed in his heart that he was worthy of being brought up by Bei Xi and really knew the rules.

"Miss, are you feeling better?"

Xiaoxue was very happy. She had been a little worried since she heard last night that Nanhuan was not feeling well.

After being reminded by the vice president, she and Li Shuai both knew that Nan Huan's identity was not simple. They did not call her Anan as they did in the game, but followed Nineteen and called her Miss.

Even though it's respectful, it feels like calling someone by a title, so it doesn't feel so distant.

"It's okay," Nan Huan waved her hand and sat down on the sofa. She didn't know how long Bei Xi's meeting would last, so she decided to get straight to the point. "I came to you two because I have something to say."

"I know you must be honest with the guild about the contents of the Blood Moon Night dungeon, but regarding my interaction with Hull, I hope you can keep it a secret for me."

Nan Huan didn't want Bei Xi to know about those intimate or hurtful interactions from other people, and she hadn't figured out how to tell him yet.

Moreover, this matter had little to do with those confidential details, and she felt that the remaining two people should agree to her.

Before she could finish, she saw some awkward looks on the faces of the two people opposite her.

Nan Huan didn't quite understand, and finally Li Shuai scratched his head and said apologetically, "Miss, when we were brought here last night, the vice president had already asked about the situation. You fainted at the time, and we didn't know and couldn't tell, so..."

Nan Huan finally understood, and she said goodbye to the two of them with her head down.

Then, holding on to the last glimmer of hope, he confirmed with Nineteen who was standing at the door, "Does she know what happened to me in the game?"

"You should know by now, but you only know what Xiaoxue and Li Shuai saw."

Nineteen finally understood why the eldest lady came here, and she gave a rigorous answer.

Nan Huan frowned and thought for a while. After entering the game, he found that Xiaoxue and Li Shuai had nothing to do with the side quests he completed.

But unfortunately, those side quests had nothing to do with Hull, and most of her interactions with Hull were seen by the two of them.

Like the hugs at a dinner party.

For example, in the final main mission, he sacrificed himself to save others.

For example, in the end the other party became his own messenger and immersed in his own vines.

Well, rounding it off means you know everything.

Nan Huan smiled bitterly and asked, "What meeting is she in? Can I go?"

"It's mainly based on the clues of the totem fragments of faith this time to determine our next target instance. The participants are all important members of the guild. The president has already explained it last night. Your power in the guild will be equal to hers in the future, so there is no place you can't go."

Nineteen has nothing to hide.

On the one hand, her respect for Nan Huan was indeed due to Bei Xi's respect last night, and on the other hand, it was because of Nan Huan himself.

A new player entered the game later than other players. Without knowing anything, he single-handedly upgraded a D-level copy twice in just one day, turning it into an S-level copy.

He unlocked the restricted areas within the dungeon, subdued important NPCs, and obtained the first-ever fragment of the Totem of Faith, causing a perfectly good dungeon to collapse.

Any intelligent person would respect such a person.

Nan Huan understood what the other party meant, but did not give any special explanation. He just smiled faintly and said, "In that case, let's go. Xiaoxue and Li Shuai definitely don't know as much as I do. After all, I will be a part of it in the future, so I have to contribute some effort."

In the conference room on the second floor, Bei Xi's face did not look good.

She had been with Nan Huan last night, so she had no idea what kind of information her subordinates had learned from Xiaoxue and Li Shuai.

Seeing that she had talked with Nan Huan for too long today, she decided to listen to what others had to say first.

As a result, I got so angry after just hearing it.

Especially since she had heard footsteps outside the door, she waved to others who were still talking, then stood up and went straight to open the door.

"If you're here, just come in. Why are you hesitating at the door? I saw that you were quite courageous when you lied to me this morning, weren't you?"

Bei Xi was originally feeling a little jealous about what happened in the game, but when he saw Nan Huan's still very pale face, his tone of voice naturally softened a lot.

Especially when he saw that Nan Huan was only wearing a shawl, he ignored Nan Huan's reaction after he finished speaking and carried him sideways into the door.

"If you put me down, someone will see me..."

Although Nan Huan was already very accustomed to the other party's behavior at home, and other people in the family were no longer surprised, but this was a guild, and she had not yet recognized all the remaining people.

Nan Huan was inevitably a little shy, but after struggling for a few times, he was still no match for Bei Xi, so he could only lower his head and pretend to be an ostrich.

Fortunately, there were not many people in the conference room, only three or four scattered around. When they saw Bei Xi's actions, they had no special reaction. Or perhaps their reactions had already been expressed last night when they learned that the president had carried her into his bedroom and that she looked exactly like the portrait in the frame on the president's desk.

Fortunately, Bei Xi didn't go too far. He just carried her to the sofa and sent someone to bring her a thick blanket.

Maybe it's just interesting to see your own president doing these things.

After all this was done, the few people who were originally sitting stood up and greeted her.

"Hello, Miss..."

Some of them spoke in a less serious tone, and some even spoke in a teasing tone, but you could tell they were all very respectful.

Nan Huan regretted it the moment she entered the room, but now that the matter was done, she could only greet the other party awkwardly and signal them not to be so polite.

"Hello..."

Including Nineteen, there were a total of four people standing in the room, three women and one man. Except for Nineteen who was dressed very formally, the rest were dressed casually.

Nineteen and the other man and woman sitting on the sofa were all very mature. Only the girl sitting on the single sofa looked very young. However, her face was quite serious, which made Nan Huan take a few more glances.

Perhaps sensing Nan Huan's embarrassment, Bei Xi spoke.

"They are all vice presidents of the guild. Only a small number of them came today. There will be plenty of opportunities to get to know each other in the future. There is no need to rush now. Why are you here?"

Bei Xi knew that she must have something to say, so she deliberately changed the subject.

"I heard that you were talking about the news in the dungeon. I think Xiaoxue and Li Shuai may not know as much as I do, so I came to help you fill in the gaps."

Nan Huan followed her words and concealed some of his true feelings, but when he turned around and saw Bei Xi's smiling eyes, he knew that the other party had guessed it, so he had to pretend not to see it.

Everyone naturally welcomed her arrival, and Nan Huan added some of her experiences in the game.

However, she deliberately did not mention her interaction with Hull, and only mentioned it in a few words, and did not deliberately explain her own skills.

The vice presidents, who have already learned some of the facts from Xiaoxue and Li Shuai, will naturally not be blindly tactful in pursuing these aspects.

Nan Huan was a little tired from talking, so he just sipped the juice that Bei Xi had people prepare, and watched the others frowning and thinking.

After a moment, she seemed to have thought of something and asked Bei Xi, "Regarding the next target dungeon, Nineteen just said that you have some information, but you are not sure yet. Can my information help?"

Bei Xi didn't say anything, but gestured to the girl sitting on the single sofa, "Twelve, you speak."

The girl was tall, but her face looked very young, and she seemed to have just entered high school. However, she spoke in a very mature manner. She picked up two documents from her left hand and handed them to Nan Huan.

"When we first got the news about the Totem of Faith fragment, we didn't target 'Night of Blood Moon', but these two copies. And according to reliable information, Order Without Order also found these two copies at the same time, which proves that the direction should be correct, but which one it is, we can't be sure based on the current clues."

The girl spoke in a very logical manner, but her face was always stern. Although she had a young face, she always looked very serious.

Nan Huan did not reply immediately, but lowered his head to look at the two documents. After a while, he pointed to one of the documents and said, "This is it."

Twelve looked at the copy she was pointing at, called "Perfect New World", and showed some doubts that were in line with her age, as well as a hidden admiration for Nan Huan, "Why?"

"Because the reward for my first dungeon main quest is related to this."

Nan Huan only saw the word "perfect", and then he remembered his mission reward - two hidden identity cards of "Perfect Company" that had not been activated yet. Then he was 100% sure that this was the copy.

When she said this, everyone else was very surprised, and then everyone unanimously agreed with Nan Huan's opinion.

"Since we can confirm that this is the instance, when is the best time for us to set off?"

Twelve's eyes were filled with admiration when she looked at Nan Huan, so much so that she completely ignored the fact that she was supposed to ask Bei Xi about the question of departure.

"tomorrow."

"tomorrow."

The two gave the same answer in unison, and after they finished speaking, they seemed to realize that their ideas coincided with each other. They looked at each other and smiled gently, which made the other people in the meeting room look at each other in confusion.

"Are you in such a hurry? The young lady just came out of the game yesterday. Besides, doesn't her body need to be healed?"

"We have confirmed that this copy of Perfect New World is related to the fragments of the Totem of Faith, so we will naturally need some time to prepare. Besides, almost all the big guilds are watching us now."

"We don't know enough about this dungeon. If we rush in, something bad might happen."

"I can tomorrow."

Of the remaining four people, except for the girl who agreed immediately, the rest held different attitudes.

Nan Huan was a little surprised that this girl was so brave. At the same time, he seemed to understand why she was the one who collected this information.

Bei Xi knew their concerns and explained, "It is precisely because we don't know much about the dungeon and everyone is against us that we choose to enter the game immediately tomorrow. Since other guilds also have their own sources of information, it is only a matter of time before they find out about this dungeon. Even if there is no source of information, there are always some means in the rest area to know where our next dungeon is going, and naturally there will be many people who will follow us."

She stopped there, but except for the girl, no one else seemed to understand the reason.

Nan Huan explained it in a more common sense, "So, if this is an in-class test, moving up the test time will naturally be beneficial to us since we already have a slight advantage."

In fact, she also knew that Bei Xi obviously had some ideas about her physical condition, and she wanted to try the method they had discussed before, but Nan Huan did not point this out.

Now the remaining few people had no questions, but the focus of their argument was on who should go with them.

"You don't have to fight. I will go with the young lady and take Twelve with me. You all stay here to handle the guild's internal affairs and continue to investigate the news about the totem fragments."

Nan Huan did not intervene in the following conversation. After all, she knew from the beginning that if she went, Bei Xi would definitely follow her.

On the contrary, Twelve, who was pointed out, had no special expression. She just pursed her lips when she heard those arguing people saying that she was too young, which was noticed by Nan Huan.

At the same time, in the headquarters of the Order of No Order Guild.

Death Scalpel was reporting to the guild leader who was sitting behind the desk with his back to him about the servants' movements from yesterday to today. "After that young lady joined the guild, there has been no news from her. The manor is being guarded tightly, and our people cannot get in for the time being..."

Even though the president had his back to him, he could sense the other party's displeasure at hearing this news, and hurriedly reported another piece of good news, "But I have already found out that the next dungeon related to the Faith Totem Fragment can be entered directly tomorrow. This time I will go there in person and bring out the Faith Totem Fragment..."

"Go ahead. If you can't get the things back, you don't have to come back. Also, if you run into that young lady, remember to take back the things in her hands."

Following a gloomy voice, Death Scalpel bent his body and left the room.

His face was gloomy. Thinking of his disrupted plan, he wished he could run into that young lady tomorrow, kill her and steal her things.

In addition to the commotion here, in fact, outside the manor, on the strangely patchwork roads, there were countless pairs of eyes hiding, watching every move in the manor.

Of course, there are some higher-end guilds that have their own special skills. They are just searching for the title of Miss bit by bit in the list of people who are about to enter the dungeon.

The rest area, which seemed calm on the surface, began to become precarious due to the arrival of Nanhuan and the appearance of the totem fragments of faith.
