The moment the flames burned out on Linghu Lan's body, she felt her soul turn into bubbles. Unlike many times before, she wasn't taken away by the system, but drifted and floated in this world, flying over mountains, rivers, and seas, and over three kingdoms.
She saw that the fates of the Little Mermaid, Snow White, and the Rose Princess had truly changed. Without the influence of the wizard, the fairy tale world continued on its original trajectory.
When Princess Rose finally grew her beloved, everything was bathed in sunshine, the darkness was completely over, and Linghu Lan finally heard the system notification:
[Congratulations, host, on completing the mission]
Linghu Lan sighed inwardly. She never expected that the way to complete the mission in this world would be 'suicide'. The terrifying feeling of her soul being burned was still fresh in her memory.
The system was a bit slow in processing data this time.
Linghu Lan instinctively felt that this mission was different from others. She felt a mixture of anticipation and fear of disappointment, and had to find other things to distract herself. "Why assign such a bizarre mission? What's the benefit of doing this?"
Silence fermented in her mind.
After a while, the system emitted another electronic notification sound.
[Congratulations, host, on successfully completing the mission. You are now back in the real world.]
Linghu Lan: "..."
Happiness comes too suddenly, catching people off guard.
Although this was the answer she had been waiting for, when the answer actually appeared, Linghu Lan still felt as if her heart had been struck by Cupid's arrow, a bittersweet feeling. She opened her mouth, feeling it was necessary to express her feelings about passing the level.
The system beeped again.
[Teleportation Initiated]
Linghu Lan: "..."
I……
If you act so recklessly, I'll definitely give you a bad review when I get back. You and your programmers just wait.
Darkness descended, and Linghu Lan involuntarily closed her eyes. She was used to traveling through the tunnel of time, but this time was different; this time, she was embarking on the road home.
Not long after.
She felt her soul struggling to attach itself to something, and a wave of sluggishness, numbness, and drowsiness washed over her, causing Linghu Lan to fall into a deep sleep.
When I opened my eyes again, all I saw was a white ceiling and the beeping of the hospital's testing equipment.
She turned her head to the side, and a woman in a nurse's uniform came into view.
The nurse was packing her things when she turned around, perhaps noticing something amiss on the monitor. Her eyes met Linghu Lan's.
The nurse seemed unsurprised by her awakening. She nodded and smiled, "You're awake! Do you feel any discomfort?"
Linghu Lan opened her mouth, but felt her throat was dry and couldn't utter a single word. She shook her head.
The nurse reached out and touched her forehead, smiling, "Everything is normal. I'll go call the doctor."
She left quickly, but Linghu Lan had many questions in her heart.
Did she really come back to life?
Instead of traversing through time again?
Why did I wake up to find a nurse instead of my parents?
She felt a little panicked. The only thing that could prove she had really come back to life was her closest relatives!
The emotional fluctuation was fleeting; she quickly forced herself to calm down.
Calm down, calm down, I'm going to survive to the very end, sir.
Footsteps echoed down the corridor, and a nurse led a doctor in.
"Hello, are you feeling unwell?"
Linghu Lan shook her head again.
