Chapter 182 World Seven [11]
Sharing a bed with the dungeon boss, it would be a lie to say I wasn't nervous.
But after turning off the lights and lying on the bed, Huo Yi's nervous mood slowly eased.
Because after Jing Ke said good night to her, he seemed to fall asleep slowly, and his steady breathing made Huo Yi relax.
Eight hours is just enough time for a good sleep. Just close your eyes and take a nap without thinking too much.
-
I lay down before ten o'clock, and eight hours later it was around six o'clock.
Huo Yi, who was not used to sleeping for too long, regained consciousness when the sun rose, but she did not open her eyes rashly. Instead, she slowly opened her eyes when she was sure that there was no breathing sound belonging to another person around her.
A faint light seeped in through the gaps in the curtains, giving the room a low-exposure visual effect.
Huo Yi sat up and rubbed his eyes. After checking the time on the wall clock, he dressed as quickly as possible and went to the bathroom to wash up.
Knowing that Jing Ke was not in the room, Huo Yi felt more at ease and finished washing up in less than three minutes.
After opening the door and coming out of the bedroom, the first thing Huo Yi saw was Xiaolu poking her head out of the guest room.
"Huo Yi!" Xiaolu suddenly felt more confident after seeing Huo Yi, and popped out in a flash.
"Yeah." Huo Yi nodded. "How did you sleep last night?"
"Very good, how about you?" Xiaolu asked, observing his friend's neck and mouth very carefully.
Her lips were not swollen, and there were no strange marks on her neck. It seemed that Xiao Baicai was still Xiao Baicai and had not been bitten by the dungeon boss.
"Almost," Huo Yi said. "Just spend the remaining two days wandering around. We'll be able to clear the customs the day after tomorrow."
"Okay, let's go downstairs and have dinner with Wang and help her with her homework." Xiaolu said with a relaxed expression on her face.
Now the boss is no longer a threat, and the other five players' abilities to move are restricted. Just be careful not to violate the explicit rules.
Now that I have some free time, I might as well help Wang Liu, a senior high school student, so that she can experience the atmosphere of studying in school after being discharged from the hospital.
Huo Yi naturally would not refuse. He turned around and wrote a note and left it in the bedroom, then went to the fourth floor with Xiaolu.
-
Time flew by and it was Sunday, the seventh day since the two entered the dungeon.
During this period, Huo Yi and Jing Ke only met at night. Every time when Huo Yi opened the door, she would see Jing Ke had already washed up and changed into pajamas, holding a book in her hand, sitting on the sofa, reading while waiting for her.
"The pajamas are new. They have been prepared for you and are placed on the cabinet outside the bathroom." Jing Ke would look up and say this after seeing someone coming.
"Okay, thank you." Huo Yi thanked her politely. When she changed into pajamas and came out, Jing Ke moved from sitting on the sofa to sitting on the bed.
After that, we said good night to each other and went to bed. The next two mornings were the same as the morning of the fifth day.
After Huo Yi woke up, Jing Ke got up and left first.
When she woke up on the morning of the fifth day, Huo Yi felt relaxed. She felt very comfortable without Jing Ke around.
When he woke up on the morning of the sixth day, Huo Yi was a little uneasy and wondered if he had been too cold.
When she woke up on the morning of the seventh day, Huo Yi felt a little embarrassed. She had gained a lot from Jing Ke, but it seemed that he had not done anything for her.
On the eighth day, there was no morning of the eighth day, because Huo Yi and Xiao Lu had already indicated that the mission was completed before dark on the seventh day.
"How is it? Can we leave smoothly?" Xiaolu asked nervously.
Huo Yi nodded and said, "You go first. I'll say hello to Jing Ke and then leave."
"Okay, I'll wait for you at home." Xiaolu didn't stop her.
After completing the corresponding task in the copy world, there will be a half-hour buffer time, during which players can leave at any time.
If the player does not actively leave the dungeon world, then after the half-hour countdown, the player will be forcibly teleported to the safe zone.
After seeing Xiaolu's figure disappear, Huo Yi let out a sigh of relief and then took the elevator to the seventh floor.
Huo Yi didn't have any special thoughts, she just wanted to say goodbye to Jing Ke in person.
But Huo Yi walked around the seventh floor and found that Jing Ke was not in the bedroom or study, and there was no sign of her in the hall or corridor.
Where did Jing Ke go? Was she on a business trip somewhere else?
Huo Yi paced and thought, and unknowingly came to the door leading to the rooftop.
A guess flashed through Huo Yi's mind. He took out his ID card and put it on. The smart lock beeped and then slowly opened.
After walking up the twenty-eight steps again, Huo Yi opened the second door and saw Jing Ke sitting on a lounge chair enjoying the sunrise.
"Jing Ke." Huo Yi sat on another recliner inside.
"Hmm?" Jing Ke turned to look at Huo Yi, "Have you completed your mission?"
"Well, I'm going back to the safe zone." Huo Yi said.
"Okay, I understand." Jing Ke's reaction was indifferent, which was somewhat beyond Huo Yi's expectations.
Huo Yi felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. His tone sounded no different from before. "Thank you for your help these few days. I'm leaving now. Goodbye."
"Goodbye." Jing Ke said, "After you leave this time, you can come in next time with whatever you want. Just hold your ID card and call my name in your heart."
Jing Ke didn't feel sad or regretful. Instead, she was happy that Xiaolu, a light bulb, would not appear.
Although Xiaolu, the light bulb, did not live in the same room with them, after she left, Huo Yi only cared about himself in this world.
Huo Yi's eyes moved slightly, and after thinking about the agreement between him and Jing Ke, the slight dissatisfaction that emerged quickly disappeared.
That’s right, just because I left the dungeon doesn’t mean she won’t come. I guess after having a steaming hot pot in the safe zone, it will be time to go to bed with Jing Ke at night.
"Okay, goodbye." Huo Yi raised his eyebrows slightly. Thinking that they would meet again soon, he quickly left the current time.
The moment Huo Yi left the current world, Jing Ke suddenly frowned and couldn't help but knocking his head with his fingers.
Jing Ke has already integrated most of the fragments. To be more precise, after Jing Ke recovered the large fragment that existed in the copy world, she could remotely recover all the fragments of her body that she sensed.
But after checking, Jing Ke discovered that a fragment close to the core was missing, and it was a loss that could not be sensed.
But this is not a bad thing for Jing Ke, especially for Jing Ke who recalls many past events. The loss of that piece of fragment is actually a good thing.
Jing Ke took his hands off his head, stood up from the recliner, and looked down at the setting sun, which was less than one-tenth of its original size.
I have remembered everything now, so she should be able to remember it soon too, right?
After all, the contract of sharing life and death was made by them long before the rules appeared.
-
Xiaolu breathed a sigh of relief only after seeing Huo Yi appear in front of her unharmed.
"It's good that you're out. It seems that the dean has a strong sense of contract. She finally did what she promised you." Xiaolu sighed and handed Huo Yi a cup of hot tea.
Huo Yi took it and took a sip. "I plan to go to the new dungeon tomorrow. Do you want to continue to team up with me?"
"What, going tomorrow? Don't you usually finish the next book once a month?" The surprise on Xiaolu's face was very obvious.
"That was in the past. After I came out, the white coat and identity card became props. As long as the power of the bosses in other copy worlds is lower than Jing Ke, they can't cause any harm to me." Huo Yi said, taking out the white coat and his identity card and placing them on the table.
"As for this ID card, I can perform a space jump when I hold it in my hand." Huo Yi held the ID card with his name printed on it between two fingers. "If nothing unexpected happens, we can transfer to the World's First Miracle Hospital at any time in other copy worlds."
Xiaolu stretched out her finger, wanting to speak but stopping herself, then saying, "Huo Yi, tell me honestly, are you remembering your past life experiences?"
"Hmm?" Huo Yi had a puzzled look on his face.
"You must have been the dean's deceased white moonlight in your previous life, right? I didn't expect that you were reincarnated in another world, and finally went around in circles so many times before reappearing in front of the dean who loved you deeply." Xiaolu said in one go.
"I can't think of a more appropriate explanation than this. This must be the truth, right?" Xiaolu asked sincerely.
Huo Yi touched his face and said, "But I don't remember anything. I am just me. I am just Huo Yi."
"That might be because the time is not right yet." Xiaolu touched his chin and said, while politely declining Huo Yi's suggestion, "But forget about going to the new dungeon world the next day. I want to stay in bed for three days and three nights, until I'm almost dying of thirst and hunger, before I consider going to the dungeon for the second time this month."
"Besides, since you are living off the dungeon world boss, can't you just become an administrator directly? Why do you still need to go to the dungeon?" Xiaolu asked back.
"That's what I said, but I can't get over it in my heart, so I plan to increase the number of times I've passed levels to 66, and use the props to exchange for a chance to go to the real world, solve the remaining problems I have, and then consider whether to become an administrator." Huo Yi said truthfully.
This was her original idea, and it was also stated in the agreement with Jing Ke.
"Don't you need to clear the level ninety-nine times to become an administrator? Is the rumor wrong? It actually only takes sixty-six times?" Xiaolu still didn't understand.
Huo Yi quickly explained the difference between sixty-six times and ninety-nine times. Xiaolu couldn't help swallowing when she heard that after clearing the level sixty-six times, she could buy a ticket that would allow her to go back ten years to the time before her death.
It is indeed a very tempting prop. If it were me, I might choose to stop at the 66th time and return to the real world before being assimilated by the copy world.
"Huo Yi, let's not talk about anything else. Don't forget each other when you become rich and powerful." Xiao Lu patted Huo Yi's shoulder. "But I can't stand the non-stop work. Let me rest for a few days. If you want to make a game later, call me again. I will definitely go with you."
After confirming that his friend needed enough time to rest, Huo Yi changed the topic and started discussing what to eat tonight.
There is not much difference in speed between the time in the copy world and the time in the safe zone. The two people who came back at dinner time could smell the aroma of many delicious foods in the safe zone after opening the window.
"Let's go and have some hotpot and barbecue. We've been eating hospital meals for so many days, it's time to have a big meal." Xiaolu said.
"Okay, I'll treat you." Huo Yi followed Xiaolu's footsteps.
"Then I must come out with a full stomach." Xiaolu said with a smile.
-
Just like that, after eating and drinking his fill, Huo Yi returned to the World's No. 1 Miracle Hospital through his ID card before going to bed.
Out of the spirit of the contract, Huo Yi told Jing Ke that he was going to other copies the next day, and mentioned the effect of the white coat after it was transformed into a prop.
Jing Ke was not surprised at all, and just nodded to indicate that he understood.
On the second day, Jing Ke rarely disappeared. Instead, she took Huo Yi to have breakfast together, wished him a safe return, and then let him go.
Before meeting Jing Ke, Huo Yi had already passed forty copies and completed the game fifty times.
After coming out of the world's first miracle hospital, Huo Yi's number of clearances became fifty-three, leaving him with less than thirteen times to reach his goal of sixty-six.
Complete one dungeon normally, and then complete the next four dungeons after uncovering hidden areas and plots. In theory, you only need to complete five more dungeons.
Because the time flow rate in the copy world and the safe zone is almost one to one, everyone who enters the copy world will not drag their feet and will pass through it at the fastest speed.
For example, this time, Huo Yi’s mission is to rescue the mountain god’s bride and let her have a beautiful and free future.
The difficulty of this copy of the mission is very low for Huo Yi. In her opinion, there are two obvious ways to rescue the bride. One is to convince people with reason and repay grievances with virtue. She must rely on her eloquence to persuade the villagers and tell them that sacrificing living people is useless and will make them murderers instead.
The second method is to directly snatch the bride. When the villagers are sending the bride to the mountain god, they can kidnap her cleanly.
Huo Yi wanted to use the second method, which was simple and crude and could also avoid a lot of trouble.
But the four players who were traveling with him all felt that Huo Yi's method was too bad. Not only was the probability of failure in the bride-stealing attempt very high, but such behavior might also anger the boss and turn the originally simple task into a difficult one.
Since they couldn't get along, Huo Yi chose to act alone.
After learning that the bride's wedding would be in three days, Huo Yi gave the other four players a chance to see if they could convince them with reason.
If possible, Huo Yi wouldn't mind just lying down and waiting to be carried away by his teammates.
Facts have proved that the villagers who can insist on rationalizing this disguised killing behavior will naturally not listen to the so-called great principles of the players.
They only know how to live off the mountain. If they want to make the village better, they must offer sacrifices to the gods. How can they just not offer sacrifices?
Not only that, in order to prevent the four players from making trouble on the bride's wedding day, they were tied up by the villagers. They decided to deal with these nonsense people after sending the bride to the mountain.
"This is a low-difficulty dungeon. They did something that violated the rules, but they were only put under house arrest." Huo Yi sighed, "It seems those are all new players."
Huo Yi took out the long sword he had sharpened himself, put a mask on his face, and then went to grab the bride.
What was somewhat unexpected to Huo Yi was that after she completed the bride-kidnapping and made the so-called wedding a mess, her mission was not completed.
The task of preventing the bride from marrying the mountain god was definitely completed, so the problem must have come from the latter part. She did not allow the bride to have a truly beautiful and free future.
"Let me go, please let me go. I am the bride of the mountain god. If I don't marry the mountain god, he will punish me!" The bride who was brought out did not seem to appreciate it, and took dedicating herself as a matter of course.
A glimmer of enlightenment flashed in Huo Yi's eyes. The so-called true freedom is not enough to achieve physical freedom alone, but also spiritual freedom.
Huo Yi had no interest in being a nanny, so he simply chose a relatively pleasing female player from the four players and asked her to liberate the bride's mind.
The rescued female player was quite sensible. After discovering Huo Yi's unfathomable strength, she became an obedient tool and did whatever Huo Yi asked her to do.
After three days of such efforts, some of the bride's ideas were gradually reversed.
The mission processes in the next four copy worlds are similar, and Huo Yi brings Xiaolu to form a team to complete them.
Because of the need to discover additional hidden plots, each copy took Huo Yi almost a week.
It is worth mentioning that the last copy is a very difficult battle royale.
After entering the dungeon world, Huo Yi found that his backpack was sealed, and the only things he could use were his white coat and ID card.
The mission in the Battle Royale dungeon world sounds simple, which is to be the only ten people alive out of a hundred.
Of course, not all of these 100 people are players. Players account for about one-fifth.
In other words, even if players can unite, only ten people can successfully complete the game.
Huo Yi put on his white coat and searched for weapons and supplies while looking for Xiaolu.
Xiaolu was lucky. After killing three contestants from the copy world, he successfully met up with Huo Yi.
The battle royale format is destined to make the trust between people fragile. In order to allow Xiaolu to escape safely, Huo Yi became nervous for a rare time.
Because there might be sneak attacks at night, Huo Yi temporarily forgot the passage of time. It was not until Jing Ke, who had washed up but did not wait for anyone to sleep with him, teleported back that Huo Yi realized that he had broken his promise.
"Sorry, can I owe you this time for now? I'll pay you back later." After more than a month of getting along, Huo Yi can treat Jing Ke with a normal attitude.
After hearing what Huo Yi said, Jing Ke frowned at first, until the two words "later" came out, the expression on her face eased a little.
"No need to owe it to me. If you don't come, I will. We are together now." As the biggest boss in the copy world, Jing Ke can completely ignore any rules and switch between different copy worlds.
"Don't consider my opinion, I'll just sleep outside." After realizing that the atmosphere was a little wrong, Little Green ran away.
In the perception of most players in the safe zone, the boss corresponding to each copy should be fixed, and they can be connected to each other, but it is still a bit exaggerated to move around without paying attention to obstacles.
"Are you going to sleep?" Jing Ke didn't ask any more questions.
"There are only sleeping bags here, and they're a bit simple." Huo Yi said, sounding a little embarrassed.
"It's okay, I don't mind." Jing Ke took off his shoes and lay down on the simple mat.
Jing Ke herself didn't mind, so Huo Yi didn't say much either. Following their previous habit, he lay down on Jing Ke's right side.
"Good night." Huo Yi said.
"Good night." Jing Ke responded, reaching out and hugging the person skillfully.
Huo Yi slowed down her breathing. She had been sleeping in this position for nearly half a month, and she had gradually adapted to it.
In this way, Jing Ke began a week of moving back and forth between the two copy worlds, until Huo Yi brought Xiaolu to take the first and second place, and each of them obtained five clearance attempts, then it was considered a stop.
-
The price of the props to return to the original world is not high, the main threshold is that the buyer must have a certain number of clearances.
Going back ten years ago was not what Huo Yi needed, so she just chose to go back ten minutes ago, as long as the time of going back was long enough for her to avoid the out-of-control truck.
After pressing the OK button, a tearing sensation swept through his body. He closed his eyes and opened them again, and the familiar whistle sounded in Huo Yi's ears again.
Huo Yi looked down and saw a bag of fruit in his hand. He had bought it at the fruit store more than ten minutes before the car accident.
The fruit shop is not far from the community, and going back and forth can be considered as exercise.
Exhaling lightly, Huo Yi held the fruit bag in his left hand, took out his mobile phone with his right hand, paid attention to the time displayed on the screen, and then walked the same route according to his memory.
Just as Huo Yi was standing in front of the sidewalk, waiting for the traffic light to turn from red to green, an out-of-control truck rushed towards Huo Yi.
Huo Yi, who had been prepared, ran to the green belt next to him without thinking, and did not forget to pick up the fruit when he ran out.
Sure enough, after Huo Yi changed his position, the truck that seemed to be out of control also turned its steering wheel.
However, Huo Yi's actions were a little faster than the driver expected. He quickly crossed the green belt and returned to another road.
The truck driver was a little nervous, and because of this nervousness he lost his direction. He had no idea how much stuff he was pulling, and he only remembered that he had to hit Huo Yi to death.
I have been diagnosed with lung cancer, and I only have half a year left if I hold on. I might as well make good use of my life and earn back two million for my wife and children!
Unfortunately, the truck driver's plan was destined to fail. The excessive speed and sharp turn caused the truck, fully loaded with goods, to overturn on the ground.
Huo Yi chose a very good angle. The surrounding cars and pedestrians were at most frightened and stopped suddenly or fell down, but there were no casualties.
The only person with blood oozing out of his head was the truck driver, who passed out when the truck rolled over. Fortunately, there was a fire station nearby, and the firefighters rushed over and pulled the truck driver out of the cab before he passed out.
