Chapter 128 Sea Amusement Park (Thirty-Seven)
Jason felt that his luck had gotten incredibly good since Hunter fell into its clutches. He stumbled upon entering the Captain's room and saw the other half of the paper with the magic circle drawn on it that he had been searching for for a long time. Hunter broke free and tried to sneak attack him, but accidentally bumped into the table. Even when preparing the sacrificial site, it encountered the magic circle left behind by the "Captain"...
All these coincidences made it feel that it was favored by God. Although it also felt that the so-called God was actually a monster and a devil, in this environment, it would regard anyone who could protect it as a God.
Jason's usual cowardly appearance is deeply rooted in people's hearts, which can easily lower other people's defenses. In addition, he actually has a good eloquence, so the other two companions were coaxed by him and really believed that Hunter was a believer of the devil. Only by killing the believers of the devil in the ceremony will God forgive them and let the innocent people leave this sea area.
The two men were quickly fooled by it and then betrayed Hunt without hesitation.
In order to prevent the mark on its neck from being discovered, it wrapped its neck with gauze. I don’t know if its good luck has run out, but despite such strict protection, it was still discovered by its companions.
"Yingnuan, do you hear me?"
Xia Yingnuan came back to her senses and met the host's concerned gaze.
She felt as if she had just woken up from a dream. She looked around and found herself back in the studio.
Xia Yingnuan said, "Excuse me, could you please repeat it again?"
Host: "Let go of Teacher Ning Hanqi first."
Xia Yingnuan: ...Huh?
She looked down and found that her hand was tightly holding Ning Hanqi's wrist.
Ning Hanqi was looking over with a hint of mockery in his eyes.
Xia Yingnuan shuddered and quickly let go of her hand: "I, I just..."
"You were just in the middle of a conversation when you suddenly came over and shook my hand." Ning Hanqi's tone was just the right amount of concern. "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
"I'm not feeling uncomfortable. Sometimes when I get excited, I can't help but dance." Xia Yingnuan took a deep breath and regained her usual smile. "I'm sorry, Teacher Ning Hanqi."
Ning Hanqi smiled and said, "Don't be so polite."
She gestured to the host: "Go on."
The program started recording again. Everything around her was strange and familiar. Xia Yingnuan inexplicably felt a sense of unreality.
Did the three days spent in the apartment really happen?
As if it heard her thoughts, the game panel suddenly popped up again, startling her so much that she almost jumped up.
Congratulations on returning to reality! Enjoy life to the fullest! Each game point can be redeemed for 1,000 RMB, but RMB cannot be used to redeem points.
[For every 24 hours you spend in the real world, the system will automatically deduct 10 points from you.]
[Please enter the next instance before your points are exhausted, otherwise you will be transported to Hell Mode.]
[The player survival rate in Hell Mode is less than 1%. Please try to avoid this situation.]
[In the real world, most of the items, weapons, and skills you obtain in the game cannot be used, and players cannot attack each other. Your life and safety will not be threatened by other players.]
[Also, please do not mention the game to non-players, and do not make any unnecessary attempts, as any attempt will be automatically blocked.]
Xia Yingnuan's expression changed. She only had 100 points. This meant that she had to enter the next dungeon in ten days at most, or die.
This bad news directly caused her to be absent-minded during the subsequent interview. Fortunately, there was not much content left, and after half an hour, she finally made it to the end.
The production team arranged a dinner party, and Xia Yingnuan had originally wanted to find an excuse to slip away, but now she changed her mind. She decided to use the dinner party as an opportunity to connect with Ning Hanqi.
The dinner table was very lively. Xia Yingnuan sat next to Ning Hanqi. She seemed to be smiling and talking, but in fact she was thinking about how to find an opportunity to be alone and have a chat with Ning Hanqi.
Ning Hanqi didn't say much, just buried his head in eating, looking very happy.
From time to time, people came to toast her, but she refused them all with the excuse that "I was driving today."
Taking advantage of the moment when no one was paying attention, Xia Yingnuan called Ning Hanqi softly, "Sister, are you free after dinner?"
"Yeah, it's good." Ning Hanqi was concentrating on peeling shrimps and responded casually, making it obvious that he didn't hear at all.
Xia Yingnuan:......
The corners of her mouth twitched: "Don't eat yet, listen to me."
Ning Hanqi looked at her, seemingly displeased: "Hmm?"
Xia Yingnuan quickly said, "I mean, I'll help you peel the shrimp."
Ning Hanqi immediately pushed the plate full of shrimps in front of her.
Xia Yingnuan resigned herself to her fate and began to work, asking the same question again.
This time Ning Hanqi heard it and replied, "I'm busy. I need to go home and sleep."
Xia Yingnuan wanted to say something else, but the others at the table noticed and started joking, "Yingnuan, if you're so reluctant to leave, why not just go home with Teacher Ning Hanqi?"
Xia Yingnuan laughed and said, "Don't talk nonsense. If you scare my sister away, I'll cry."
She accidentally tilted her head and her eyes met with the person opposite her.
He was a man in his thirties, well-mannered and dressed in a well-tailored suit, looking over thoughtfully. To be more precise, he was looking in Ning Hanqi's direction.
Xia Yingnuan recognized him: a friend of the director's named Dong Feng. He was a well-known playboy, his family was powerful, and his private life was chaotic, changing girlfriends like changing clothes. Rumor had it that Dong Feng was also Ning Hanqi's suitor, and paparazzi had photographed him sending flowers and gifts several times.
Under normal circumstances, Xia Yingnuan would not bother to pay attention to such gossip, but after entering the dungeon, she was eager to become Ning Hanqi's little cutie, and unconsciously regarded the other party as a love rival.
So she glared at Dong Feng fiercely. Dong Feng was stunned, but instead of retreating, he stood up and walked over with a glass of wine.
He looked at Ning Hanqi, his tone somewhat respectful: "Teacher Ning Hanqi, I offer you a toast."
Ning Hanqi raised her eyes, but before she could say anything, Dong Feng rushed in and said, "I know you can't drink while driving, so I'll do it. Feel free to do as you please."
As he said this, he tilted his head back and drank the wine in the glass.
Ning Hanqi glanced at him without saying anything. Dong Feng was not annoyed either, and continued to smile.
Does Ning Hanqi have some leverage over Dong Feng? Or does love make people humble?
Xia Yingnuan deliberately took Ning Hanqi's arm affectionately and asked, "Sister, who is this?"
Ning Hanqi was very considerate and didn't break free from her. He introduced her calmly, "This is Dong Feng."
Dong Feng hadn't wanted to pay attention to her, but seeing that the two seemed to have a good relationship, he immediately greeted her, "I know you, Yingnuan, right? Hello, hello."
Xia Yingnuan smiled and said, "Hello, uncle."
Dong Feng: ...
He was very upset, but he was more than ten years older than Xia Yingnuan, so he couldn't find a reason to lash out. And if the other party was Ning Hanqi's man, how could he afford to offend him?
So Dong Feng had to pretend that he didn't care, exchanged a few words with a smile, and then left in disappointment.
Xia Yingnuan felt Ning Hanqi looked at her with confusion, but she didn't say anything and lowered her head to eat again.
After dinner, Xia Yingnuan shamelessly ran to the parking lot to block people.
She was afraid that if she followed Ning Hanqi directly, she would be rejected ruthlessly on the spot and would not even have the chance to say a few words to him alone, so she took this approach and deliberately did not walk the same path as Ning Hanqi.
It was past three in the morning, and the parking lot was mostly empty and very quiet, with only the sound of her own footsteps echoing.
Xia Yingnuan thought she was fast enough, but she didn't expect that Ning Hanqi was one step ahead of her.
When she found Ning Hanqi's car, he was already sitting in the driver's seat.
Xia Yingnuan quickly knocked on the door, and the car window slowly rolled down, revealing half of her delicate face.
Ning Hanqi looked over, his eyes bright, as if he understood everything in the world.
"Xia Yingnuan, what exactly do you want to say?"
Xia Yingnuan suddenly felt nervous for no reason and completely forgot the words she had prepared.
She gritted her teeth and simply expressed her true feelings, "Sister, please guide me! Don't force me to kneel down and beg you QAQ!"
Ning Hanqi raised his eyebrows slightly, but before he could say anything, a figure came running from a distance.
Xia Yingnuan was shocked and took two steps back. When she looked carefully, she found that the man was actually Dong Feng.
Dong Feng's face was filled with anxiety. He knelt down in front of Ning Hanqi's car with a plop, crying without caring about his image, "Teacher Ning Hanqi, please be kind and take me to the dungeon! I will work like a slave for you!"
As he said this, he kowtowed twice to the ground, his face covered in dust and dirt.
Xia Yingnuan: ...stealing business?
What’s going on? Has this industry become so involuted?
Because the tour guide pressed the distress button while driving the boat back to the cruise ship at high speed, the staff on the cruise ship began to look for the missing boat and the players on it. Ning Hanqi was the first to return, and the rest have not been found yet.
"I see! It's Miss Yanyan! Hurry up and pull her up!" The staff not far away jumped up and down excitedly. It's no wonder they were so excited. After all, these minions who had become ghosts or were at the bottom of the society were very afraid of the wrath of the Sea God. The aftermath of His power was enough to scare them to death.
Xia Yingnuan gently patted Ning Hanqi's back, using her relatively gentle strength to relieve the aftereffects of her choking on water.
"Take a break."
Feeling Ning Hanqi's body gradually relax, Xia Yingnuan grabbed a staff member and asked where the tour guide was. After learning that the tour guide was still missing, Xia Yingnuan asked the frightened staff member to go to the rescue area to help.
While all the staff's attention was attracted by the sea slug, Xia Yingnuan immediately ran back with Ning Hanqi in her arms. It was now past 5 o'clock in the morning, and it was not known whether the tour guide could be rescued. During this time, Ning Hanqi could eat something, drink some medicine, and then have a short rest.
