Yuanbao was communicating with the main system when he suddenly heard his host calling out anxiously. He immediately ran to Xu Nian's side.
Seeing that her face was rosy and she looked like she was asleep, Yuanbao jumped onto Xu Nian without hesitation and started bouncing around, but it didn't work after a while.
Yuanbao turned around and ran to Captain Lin, who was resting, and bit him awake.
As soon as Captain Lin opened his eyes, he saw Yuanbao looking anxious, jumping around like a madman.
Captain Lin remained unmoved, so Yuanbao had no choice but to run back to Xu Nian and bounce around on her.
"What's wrong with her?" Captain Lin understood. It turned out that Xu Nian was in trouble. No wonder this strange pet was acting like it had gone mad.
"Awooo!" Yuanbao immediately jumped onto He Lin's body, bouncing around as well.
"Both of them are in trouble." Captain Lin realized this and immediately checked them over; both of them were unharmed.
But having spent a long time in the bizarre dungeon game world, he understood that the consciousness of these two people had been pulled into another illusion, and the best way now was to wake them up.
Captain Lin was no ordinary man; his methods of summoning people were incredibly brutal. He grabbed He Lin's shoulders and shook him violently.
Seeing his expression, Yuanbao immediately ran to Xu Nian's side and bit him hard.
"Hiss!" Xu Nian suddenly sat up and flung the source of pain away.
"Host, you're kicking me while I'm down!" Yuanbao slammed into the wall of the ancestral hall with a thud, landing with a look of utter grievance.
"Yuanbao, I'm sorry." Xu Nian walked over and picked Yuanbao up.
“Host,” Yuanbao said, looking aggrieved.
"I'll give you ten points as compensation," Xu Nian said helplessly.
"Yay, host is the best!" Yuan Bao immediately became very happy.
What an easy fool he is to appease.
After being happy, Yuanbao suddenly looked at Xu Nian with drooping ears.
"Yuanbao, what's wrong?" Xu Nian asked.
"Host, the main system just sent a message that the female lead has passed away."
"What? The female lead is dead, what about the male lead?" Xu Nian slapped her forehead, a bad feeling creeping over her.
"Host, why don't you... go and save the male lead?" Yuanbao pleaded.
"I won't do it. Don't think I don't know. The reason I was suddenly locked up by Xiao Yang in the last world was related to the two times I saved him. Even if it wasn't directly related, it was the most important reason." Xu Nian snorted coldly.
“But host, in the main plot, the male lead must be saved. If the male lead dies without anyone saving him, then your mission…!” Yuanbao had no choice but to use his trump card.
"Stop, I'll save people, but I'll have to pay more." Xu Nian finally gave in to the money.
"No problem, thank you for your kindness, host." Yuanbao hurriedly nodded in agreement.
"How much will you add this time?" Xu Nian asked curiously, wondering how generous the main system would be.
"The main system is willing to give you a thousand points, how about that? Aren't you pleasantly surprised, host?" Yuanbao said to Xu Nian with a big smile.
"A thousand points! This male lead is worth so much!" Xu Nian was stunned by the sudden windfall.
"Yeah, I didn't expect the main system to be so generous this time," Yuanbao exclaimed.
"Quick, Yuanbao, where is the male lead? I'm going to rescue him." Xu Nian was getting impatient.
"Wait, host, let me look for it." Yuanbao then remembered that it had been in a hurry to save Xu Nian and hadn't found the male lead yet.
After Xu Nian finished talking with Yuan Bao, He Lin had already woken up.
He woke up everyone who was resting and recounted his discoveries in the illusion once more.
"So, how do we get through this?" This was what Wei Nana was most concerned about.
"Rule number five: Survive the bride. We have to wait until the wedding day for the exit to open." He Lin summarized, but found no clues to leave beforehand.
“If what you say is true, the wedding day will probably be a massacre. We’ll not only have to face the bride, but also a pack of wolves,” Captain Lin said, adjusting his glasses.
He Lin nodded and continued, "Now the only thing we need to determine is where the exit passage will open."
“Ancestral hall, memorial tablet, bride, wedding, wolf pack, the bride and the wolf pack massacred on the wedding day, then the ancestral hall must be the passage to escape.” Chi Nan’s eyes lit up as he looked at He Lin, and he relaxed after receiving a nod of affirmation.
"So all we have to do is stay in the ancestral hall and wait for the passage to open?" Fatty Huang scratched his head, feeling that it shouldn't be that simple!
"We'll find out tomorrow." Wei Nana didn't have many thoughts about it.
"Tomorrow?" Xu Nian was taken aback. Time had flown by so quickly?
She remembered that it was only the first day everyone went to the woods outside the village to look for clues!
"How long do you think you were unconscious?" Wei Nana asked, annoyed. If it weren't for her boss protecting her, would she really have survived in this game?
He Lin glanced at Wei Nana secretly, warning her not to say anything more, then turned to Xu Nian with a bright smile and said, "Sister, don't be afraid, I'll protect you tomorrow."
"I..." Xu Nian was about to speak when she was suddenly interrupted by Yuanbao's scream.
"Yuanbao, what's wrong?" Xu Nian asked, puzzled. Why did Yuanbao look so flustered?
"Host, the system indicates that the man in front of you, He Lin, is the male lead." Yuanbao looked again and again to make sure he wasn't mistaken.
"How is that possible? What's the male lead's name?" Xu Nian couldn't believe it. In her memory, the shy, timid, and kind boy could not possibly be the calm and wise male lead.
“Lin He,” Yuanbao replied, covering his eyes.
"Lin He, He Lin, really..." Xu Nian realized how stupid she had been, foolishly saving someone, thinking she had saved a kind-hearted person.
Unexpectedly, he had been lying from the very beginning, completely deceiving her. Did he find it very amusing to watch her being played by him?
It's such a waste of her feelings; she rarely shows kindness like this.
"Sister, what's wrong? Why are you looking at me so strangely?" Lin He's heart skipped a beat. Why was she looking at him with such disappointment?
"Who are you?" Xu Nian confronted him directly, not wanting to play along with someone who had deceived her feelings.
"It's me, He Lin! Sister, what's wrong?" Lin He's heart was pounding. He trusted his teammates; no one would tell her his real identity. She shouldn't know.
"He Lin? Do I look stupid?" Xu Nian sneered, keeping her distance from the six people.
She should have realized it sooner. Sometimes their behavior and expressions were so strange. They would immediately carry out whatever He Lin said without ever questioning or refuting it.
"Sister, I didn't mean to." Although Lin He didn't know how he had been exposed, he still habitually pretended to be pitiful in hopes of softening Xu Nian's heart.
"Of course you didn't do it on purpose, because you did it intentionally!" Xu Nian sneered, looking at Lin He with sarcasm.
She didn't know what she was after. Was it just because she stole his clothes that he was unhappy and wanted to get revenge on her?
