GOR Chapter 1: Come Forward and Receive Death
"Come forward and receive death!"
"I do not have many friends, you are one. If you die, I will be unhappy."
After adjusting some final punctuation with his keyboard, Chen Xiaolian raised his head and massaged his sore temple.
Within a VIP waiting room of an airport, service personnel wearing beautiful uniform were gently pouring coffee for the guests.
This is an airport within a small country's tourist city, located within Southeast Asia.
Chen Xiaolian stretched his waist and quickly affixed an author's back section on the chapter that he had just finished. Thinking for a moment, he quickly typed in a line of text: Seeking monthly ticket… [1]
Glancing at the book review section, he could see some readers urging for more while others were cursing: Always not updating the book, but still have the face to ask for monthly ticket, author has a small dick ah…
He quickly exited the back section, switched off his laptop, and stuffed it into his bag. Suddenly getting the urge to urinate, he looked at his phone and saw that it was still early. Chen Xiaolian immediately got up while carrying his bag and proceeded to run towards the toilet.
Chen Xiaolian, gender male.
As for his profession… a web novelist, one who writes fantasy fiction novels. He has quite the reputation within the web novel circle as he had written one or two relatively popular web novels.
He also managed to earn some royalties.
Hmm, considering his current age, there was no need to spend much money anyways. As for things like getting married, having children and buying a house, those matters are something that is relatively far in the future for him.
However, in his online profile, he had made up a rather funny image of himself. It was something of a prank towards his readers. He casually took an image shared by his circle of friends and made it his own avatar picture: It is the picture of a thirty-year-old fair skinned fatty with a round looking face.
Because of this, his readers and fan base all thought Chen Xiaolian to be an adorable thirty-year-old fatty. Fans who were close to him would affectionately call him "bloody fatty" or "fat uncle".
However, the truth…
Hua!
Chen Xiaolian splashed a handful of cold water onto his face before roughly wiping at it. He then observed the reflection on the mirror. A noticeably immature looking face that was overly delicate looked back. Chen Xiaolian made a strange expression on his face.
By manhua standards, the face looking back at him through the mirror would no doubt belong to the 'black bellied, attractive 16 year-old teenager' classification. [2]
Truth be told, Chen Xiaolian's age is also not too far from sixteen. He is only eighteen-years-old, a long way to go before being called "uncle".
Thus, every time he thought of his female fans amongst his readers calling him "uncle", Chen Xiaolian would feel a certain pride in successfully pranking others.
His face may be a little off from being considered 'handsome', however, if it was any consolation, it could still be considered 'elegant'.
His height could be considered as a flaw. At eighteen years of age, he is only at one hundred and seventy centimetres. During basketball sessions within school, he could only sit on the bench as part of the assisting group.
After wiping the water off his face, Chen Xiaolian moved his body into a basketball shooting posture and threw the rolled up tissue paper into the wastebasket.
His movements were fairly standard and were the results of him practicing in private. Unfortunately, with his problematic height, he would probably have no chance of being a basketball player.
Hmm, after this trip is over, it would almost be time for the school to reopen. If he were to fail in the selection for the basketball team, then he should just give up. Besides, just because one wishes to be surrounded by cheerleaders, that does not mean that one has to be a basketball player.
Looking at the time again, he noted that there was still some time before the plane takes off.
Within the airport restroom where there was an English signboard prohibiting smoking, Chen Xiaolian took out his hand phone and checked his WeChat. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly heard the sound of conversations coming from the restroom entrance.
"I heard that it is about to enter closed beta?"
"Indeed, it seems that the new settings have been implemented. The instance dungeon has also been completed. This time's closed beta would probably be very lively, some very powerful players have been selected for this."
"Sigh, it seems it would be very eventful…"
Chen Xiaolian walked out of the restroom and saw two person wearing aircrew uniforms chatting.
What had surprised him was the fact that these two person were conversing in Chinese – in this small Southeast Asian country, almost ninety per cent of tourists are Chinese. However, it was rare to meet a pilot who speaks in Chinese…
In addition, their topic of conversation that was obviously regarding online games also stoked Chen Xiaolian's curiosity.
Closed beta… instance dungeon… players…
"I am sorry, please excuse me," Chen Xiaolian smiled politely, showing some shyness at the same time.
The two crew members gave Chen Xiaolian a glance and immediately made way for him through the restroom entrance.
Chen Xiaolian walked two steps forward when he suddenly heard someone shouting for him from behind.
"Wait a moment, you dropped something."
Turning his head, Chen Xiaolian saw the left most lanky looking pilot bending over to pick up something from the ground. He then handed it over to Chen Xiaolian. "Your boarding pass?"
Chen Xiaolian glanced over it and found that it was really his. It must have fallen off when he was retrieving his tissue papers from his bag.
He hastily said a few words of thanks, but the pilot narrowed his eyes as he glanced over Chen Xiaolian. "Flight XX3307? Interesting…"
What kind of words are those?
Moreover, Chen Xiaolian instinctively felt that the way the other person was looking at him was a little strange.
"I can only say… I wish you good luck."
Those were the last words said by the pilot. After that, he waved goodbye with his hands and left with his companion in another direction.
How baffling!
Chen Xiaolian stared blankly at the pilots back.
Do airline companies hire their pilots in such a casual manner these days?
That person must have some brain problems, right? I wonder who would be so unfortunate as to ride on the plane he flies!
This minor event did not stay in Chen Xiaolian's mind for too long. He went back to the waiting room, had another round of coffee and played mobile games for a while. After an hour, Chen Xiaolian began to board the plane.
As he was boarding, he was surprised to find that amongst the crewmembers greeting the passengers at the airplane entrance, was none other than the "I wish you good luck" fellow!
Chen Xiaolian was shocked senseless, however, the other party only smiled and nodded towards him. After that, the pilot turned around and headed into the cockpit.
The flight attendant politely guided Chen Xiaolian towards his seat. The space given to First Class was very wide and he sat down before changing into a pair of slippers. Chen Xiaolian then turned to the flight attendant and requested a glass of beer.
He has a mild discomfort towards flight, also known as motion sickness. By drinking some alcoholic drinks, he hoped to be able to fall asleep after boarding the plane. That would be for the best.
After drinking a mouthful of beer, someone sat down on the passenger seat beside him. He gave the passenger a glance and saw a little loli with a short bob cut hair… neat and clean, with a pair of big, black eyes. She wore a light blue short skirt as she sat on the passenger seat, her pair of white legs dangling freely in the air – Hmm, this act had exposed her height. When she was seated, her legs could no longer reach the ground.
Considering Chen Xiaolian's age, he is naturally not a lolicon. (That is something exclusive to uncles!)
He was only curious as to why a child at such an age would board a plane alone. In addition, this was an international flight.
Realizing that Chen Xiaolian was looking at her, the little girl made a brief eye contact with Chen Xiaolian. She then nodded politely in a seemingly subconscious manner; however, her attitude remained cold, as though the nod earlier was simply an instinctive etiquette.
Later, she seemed to have received a phone call. She retrieved her phone and spoke into the phone with a childish voice.
"Unnie… Omo… Imnida…"
Chen Xiaolian chuckled to himself: A Korean loli…
Seemingly aware that he was still looking at her, her eyes became colder. When she saw Chen Xiaolian's teenage face that indicated that he was not that old, but was holding on to a glass of beer… her eyes seemed to show traces of disapproval.
Well, I am now being despised.
Chen Xiaolian chuckled secretly, simply took out his eye blinders, and put it on before going to rest.
Soon, the flight attendants gave another notice and the plane began to slowly move along the runway. After a burst of violent vibrations, the plane rose to the skies…
Two hours later, Chen Xiaolian was woken up by a burst of vibration. Removing the blinders, he looked around in confusion and saw that the warning lamp above his head had been lit on.
The Korean loli sitting beside him was instead very calm, she held onto a glass of orange juice, drinking it mouthful after mouthful, wearing bunny shaped earphones and listening to music.
The flight attendant used a warm and harmonious voice to make an announcement, stating that the plane had probably ran into some turbulent airflow and asked everyone to not enter a state of panic.
It should not have been anything, an airplane running into these kinds of situations were simply far too common.
However, after a few minutes, the frequency of the vibrations from the airplane seems to be increasing and the extent of the vibration increased. This caused the passengers to gradually become alarmed.
Glancing around, Chen Xiaolian saw that the first class flight attendants had already been seated at their designated seats, their safety belts fastened tight.
Chen Xiaolian could not help himself as he started feeling apprehensive.
Of the two flight attendants of the first class area, the older one who was presumably the chief maintained calm and continued using a harmonious voice to sooth the passengers.
As for the younger flight attendant… when Chen Xiaolian was boarding the plane, he had taken another look at her. She had a pair of very slender legs and her current seating position just happened to be directly opposite Chen Xiaolian.
Chen Xiaolian was able to spot the traces of panic and fear within the flight attendant's eyes.
The chief attendant remained calm and was using a gentle voice to sooth the passengers, showing that nothing serious is going on.
However, Chen Xiaolian had noticed that the younger flight attendant's legs were…
Trembling!
That is right! They were trembling!
Holy shit! Even the flight attendants are scared to the point of trembling?!
Then… then something big must have happened!
Chen Xiaolian suddenly became nervous. It was at this moment that a loud bang suddenly sounded out from who knew where!
The aircraft suddenly lost all power and sounds of screams were emitted from the passengers' compartments.
One could clearly feel that the aircraft was falling down at a rapid rate…
Next, a series of loud noises rang out non-stop. Amidst the terrifying noises, Chen Xiaolian's face had turned ghastly white, all the strength within his body seemingly sapped away.
The Korean loli beside him began crying out of fear, screaming out in Korean.
As the last of the loud rumbling noises roared out, Chen Xiaolian had one last thought before losing consciousness: I cannot be so unlucky, right? I am only eighteen-years-old! I am still a virgin… I write novels about transmigrations! Am I about to transmigrate?!
1. Seeking monthly tickets is part of the webnovel scene in China, where the monthly ticket roughly acts as a form of subscription fee.
2. Black bellied means someone who seemed kind and honest on the outside but could well be plotting something insidious on the inside.

GOR Chapter 2: Can You Speak Human Language?
[Author's note: An early explanation here: This book's genre is not online gaming! Not infinite element genre [1]! And most certainly not transmigration to another world! All I can say is that this is a fantasy novel set amidst a modern backdrop… As for the specifics, you will know once you read on.
Once again, this is not an online gaming novel!]
Severe vibrations, followed by a long period of darkness filled state of unconsciousness.
After that, light began to appear bit by bit and Chen Xiaolian's consciousness seemed to be returning. However, he was only slightly conscious.
Forcing himself to open his eyes, he saw what appeared to be flashes of pictures… appearing intermittently as though they were fragments.
It seemed as though… they landed…
The cockpit's door was opened…
The "I wish you good luck" pilot came out…
Chen Xiaolian's mind and consciousness was still in a state of disorder and he could not maintain a clear head.
The one clear thought he had was… I, probably did not die, right?
However, he then 'saw' a fragment of flashing pictures that did not seem right!
The "I wish you good luck" pilot suddenly tore off the pilot uniform that he was wearing.
That was right, he tore it off!
It was as though what he tore off was not clothes, but mere paper!
That cannot be right! How could normal people have that much strength? Clothes may not seem too durable, however, have you tried to tear it off before? Could you simply tear it off as though it is mere paper?
After that…
The buzzing sound within Chen Xiaolian's ears have yet to cease, causing him to only be able to catch part of what was being said.
The other person seemed to be shouting…
"Begin formation of teams…"
"… equipment… pathfinder…"
"… dungeon quest…"
Chen Xiaolian finally became certain of one thing, he must be dreaming!
He played too much games and now his mind is in a state of confusion, right?
Then… he thoroughly fainted, again.
"Has the team formation been completed?"
"It seems as though a few had been disconnected."
"What is going on? Disconnected just after arrival? Were the damage values for the impact timing not properly calculated? Once we go back, we will have to go pick a fight with those people from the Development Team."
"They were just unlucky, wasting such a precious spot in the closed beta."
"En, remember this BUG. When we return, we will let the Development Team handle it. The damage values from the time of impact and entering needs to be recalculated."
The sounds gradually faded away…
Naturally, Chen Xiaolian was unable to hear those voices…
Waking up after a long period of time, Chen Xiaolian saw that his surroundings were a mess.
The aircraft's interior was completely different from before, the luggage compartments were in disarray, with no small number of luggage compartment's lid falling off and boxes having fallen out of it. The passengers' seats were no different, many of them having being displaced.
As for Chen Xiaolian, he had at some undetermined time left his seat and was lying down on the floor. His face rested upon the cold floors of the airplane, while his body was somewhat aching.
He forcibly propped up his body.
He could also hear "pipipapa" crackling sounds. Who knows where the sparks were being emitted from.
The first thought that came to his mind was… I am not dead!
The second thought that came to his mind was… Damn!
He first inspected his whole body while the buzzing sound in his ears slowly ceased.
En, his entire body was still intact and he was not suffering from a broken leg or missing an arm.
This was obviously a plane crash and yet he had been… very fortunate. From an external point of view, it appeared that he was not suffering from any serious injuries. At the moment, Chen Xiaolian was temporarily not considering matters such as internal bleeding.
Truth be told, his mind was still in a state of confusion, panic and shock…
Finally, he heard a gentle sound of crying coming out from beside him.
Turning around, he first spied a pair of small and slender white legs. Only one leather shoe was worn on one of them. The other shoe seemed to have been lost?
The Korean loli sat in a corner, surrounded by fallen passenger seats. The little loli's hair was dishevelled as she sat there, crying helplessly.
She shouted out helplessly in a soft voice: "ottoke" "ottoke".
Chen Xiaolian who had watched no small amount of Korean variety shows was able to generally figure out that those words meant 'what do I do'.
Chen Xiaolian tried to prop up his body, putting in great effort to stand up. He found that he was still able to exert some strength; with the exception of some sore areas and his legs feeling weak, there were no other big problems. As for his weak legs, it was probably due to the fear he was feeling.
The passenger compartment was in a broken state.
On the right hand side, a huge hole was torn off and the door of the passenger compartment had disappeared to who knows where.
Above his head, a hole was ripped out, creating a form of skylight. The ripped out metals hung down, flashing every now and again.
Chen Xiaolian's instinct told him that something was amiss. However, he was temporarily unable to understand what exactly was amiss.
He subconsciously shouted out. "Is there anyone here?"
Well, he had in fact wanted to directly shout "help". However, for some unknown reason, he did not.
Having said that, it was not that strange. After all, how many chances are there for a normal person to shout out the word "help"?
"Are you all right?"
Chen Xiaolian shouted out towards the little loli stuck inside the mass of passenger seats but she showed no reaction to him at all. Her eyes were filled with shock and she continued muttering in panic. "Ottoke, ottoke."
Chen Xiaolian took a deep breath and struggled to lift away one of the passenger seat beside the little loli. He did not have much strength and had to attempt this action several times before succeeding.
"Quickly get out!" Chen Xiaolian extended his hand out to the little girl. The girl looked at him but remained motionless. Chen Xiaolian chose to simply move over and used his hand to grab her wrist, then pulled her over by force.
"Get out of here!" His words were spoken using Chinese, without consideration of whether the little loli could understand. "Get out of here, out! Go outside!"
Chen Xiaolian pulled the Korean girl out and pointed towards the torn out section of the passenger compartment.
He too tried moving outside.
"Is there anyone here? Anybody??! {ANYBODY}??!!"
Chen Xiaolian used both Chinese and English as he shouted out.
His instinct led him to start looking for crewmembers of the airplane. Unexpectedly, Chen Xiaolian found that the older of the two flight attendants, presumably the chief attendant had disappeared. As for the younger flight attendant with beautiful legs, she was still seated at her spot, with her head tilted to the side. It was unknown if she was already dead or only unconscious.
The cockpit door was… open!
From his standpoint, he was coincidentally able to observe that the cockpit was empty!
This discovery caused Chen Xiaolian's heart to pound with anger.
The crewmembers had run off and disregarded him, a passenger?
He then moved to the back to look around. (First Class passenger compartment is at the front and Economy Class is at the back.)
His discovery there caused Chen Xiaolian's heart to sink!
He finally realized why he felt that something was amiss!
The entire passenger compartment was… E.M.P.T.Y! Empty!
Many of the passenger seats have been turned upside down, however…
All of the passengers, all of them… were gone!
This discovery left Chen Xiaolian stunned for several seconds!
When he was boarding the airplane, he recalled that it was filled to capacity! At the very least, there should be a hundred people here, right?
But now…
Chen Xiaolian looked at himself, then looked towards the little Korean loli who only knew how to cry and shout out "ottoke".
Oh, there is also the unconscious flight attendant with beautiful legs…
Everyone else is gone?!!
All of them gone?!
This realization caused Chen Xiaolian to be frozen on the spot as his heart felt as though it had turned cold!
This… the people have already been rescued by the relief team? And left? Nobody cared about me?!!
For a moment, he felt an impulse to let out a string of curses!
The little loli beside him suddenly screamed, waking Chen Xiaolian up from his reverie.
Screaming in fear, the little loli's body turned soft. She held up her fingers to point at a spot on the passenger compartment.
Chen Xiaolian looked in the pointed direction and found himself becoming weak as well.
It was a… person. To be precise, it was a… corpse.
It must be one of the passengers.
He was truly unlucky. Still seated on the passenger seat, his neck was turned to the side. Judging by the extent to which his neck was twisted, his death was pretty much confirmed.
He was wearing a suit, giving off the impression that he was a businessperson.
Both his face and body were painted with blood.
However, Chen Xiaolian still worked up his courage to move towards him and check. He wanted to make sure that the man was no longer breathing.
He was still feeling uncertain as to how to deal with this. However, at this moment, something happened to the corpse that he had come in contact with. Something fell off the corpse's hand and rolled over towards Chen Xiaolian's feet.
This is a…
Metallic sphere.
It was round with a very smooth surface, seemingly no different from an ordinary steel marble. As for its size, it was as big as an egg.
Chen Xiaolian subconsciously picked it up with his hand and examined it, but could not identify what it was. All he felt was that it was slightly heavy.
Just as he was feeling confused, a sound came from behind.
"{Help}…"
It was in English.
Chen Xiaolian turned back and saw that the flight attendant with beautiful legs had regained consciousness. Her body had fallen off her seat, seemingly incapable of standing up. She could only extend her hand outwards and helplessly shout "{help}".
Chen Xiaolian placed the metal sphere into his pocket and ran over to help the flight attendant get up. The flight attendant with beautiful legs seemed thin; however, at that moment she was too feeble to support herself. She could only lean heavily onto Chen Xiaolian, her entire weight bearing down on him. The young Chen Xiaolian felt as though he may not be able to support her weight. He forcibly dragged her outside.
"{Areyouok}?"
However, the other party seemed to be confused. She looked at Chen Xiaolian before speaking a word out immediately.
Chen Xiaolian was unable to understand, but was able to discern the pronunciation of the other party.
"Tasukete."
It sounded like… Japanese?
In the next moment, Chen Xiaolian felt an impulse to puke out blood.
In the aircraft, only three of them remained alive!
Besides him, there was a Korean loli and a Japanese woman?
Neither of them can speak Chinese!!!

GOR Chapter 3: We Will Not Die!
Chen Xiaolian had both the Korean loli and the Japanese flight attendant brought outside the airplane.
The little loli could still move by herself. The flight attendant on the other hand could not move even a single step. It was unknown if this was due to fear or if her legs were injured. Back when he was helping the flight attendant out of the airplane, it seemed as though her soft breasts were pressed down onto his shoulders; however, Chen Xiaolian did not give it any thought – Matters of life is more important right now! Who would spare a thought to these messy thoughts!
After having moved around more than ten meters of distance away from the airplane, the three of them sat on the ground.
Only after he felt that they were all right did Chen Xiaolian returned to take a look at the airplane.
The body of the airplane was still intact, albeit barely. As for the two wings, they had disappeared. It seemed that it had been broken off.
They were currently in a forest area – Judging from the vegetation here… Well, truth be told, Chen Xiaolian did not know what to make of them.
He is not an experienced person in the field of wilderness survival. He could not utilize the vegetation to determine where they are and whether this place is a tropical zone or a temperate zone. He was unable to differentiate between those.
The scenery on the other hand, was enough to put any person into shock.
Behind the airplane, a long passage was created through the forest! It seemed that after the plane was forced down, it had ploughed its way through the forest, creating this long passage.
The passage was around a few hundred meters in length and the canopy of trees were either broken or flattened by the airplane.
The airplane's landing gear was no longer there and the airplane rested on the ground. On both sides, trees were either torn off or blown away…
Chen Xiaolian had seen a lot of disaster films made in Hollywood, where the scenes were filmed using special effects. Before him however was a real scene and not some computer generated images. This reality that was put on full display before Chen Xiaolian had caused him to fall into shock for a few minutes.
It seemed that the flight attendant had begun to gradually calm down and was trying to stand up. Fortunately, her legs did not appear to be hurt. The earlier episode must have been due to fear.
The flight attendant leaned upon a tree, watching her surroundings in a helpless and terrified manner. She then started crying with a rather hoarse voice.
"{Help}!"
"Ta_su_ke_te!!"
This time he finally understood. The latter phrase of "tasukete" must be her crying for help, right?
The Korean loli just sat there and cried – considering her age, she is probably less than ten-years-old. For her to only stay seated and cry instead of fainting was probably a feat of strength for her. As for others… probably should not hope too much from her..
Chen Xiaolian took a deep breath and suddenly made the decision to run into the aircraft cabin.
The flight attendant saw him moving and shouted out some words at him, seemingly trying to stop him. However, Chen Xiaolian only waved at her while he continued moving into the aircraft cabin.
A few moments later, Chen Xiaolian emerged from the inside while carrying a box out. After that, he returned inside and carried out another box.
When the flight attendant realized what was going on, she stood there in hesitation for a moment. Finally, she bit her lips, took off her shoes and quickly followed Chen Xiaolian inside barefooted.
They moved out a portion of the food and water within the aircraft cabin.
After that, they moved out some boxes.
Chen Xiaolian retrieved a slightly thick outer sweater and draped it over the little Korean loli before personally pulling up the zip for her.
The little loli who was sobbing stopped, she raised her head to look at Chen Xiaolian.
"Do not be scared," Chen Xiaolian whispered. Without caring if she had understood what he said, he turned and ran into the plane again.
His mobile phone had been damaged. Thus, Chen Xiaolian spent a long time within the plane before finally finding another mobile phone. He did not know which passenger had dropped it, however, he was unable to get it to operate. It seemed that the mobile phone had also been damaged…
He angrily cast it aside.
So fragile! If he had known, he would have bought a Nokia!
Behind him, the flight attendant patted Chen Xiaolian. He turned his head around to find the other party handing out a…
Mobile phone.
"Yours?" Chen Xiaolian pointed at her.
While it was uncertain if the flight attendant understood him, she nodded her head. Chen Xiaolian became overjoyed and suddenly started laughing loudly. A feeling of surviving through disaster washed over him, causing him to become overexcited. He could not help himself as he went over and hugged the flight attendant, giving her the thumbs up.
However, a few minutes later…
A pale faced Chen Xiaolian returned the phone back to the flight attendant.
"No… signal."
All numbers ended up giving the busy tone that signified that the call could not be made, including the Worldwide Relief number 400-888-4099.
The flight attendant panicked. She took the mobile phone and tried dialling a few numbers. After that, her face turned pale; she crouched down with both hands holding her knees and started crying bitterly.
As for Chen Xiaolian, he took a very deep breath, narrowed his eyes and surveyed his surroundings… surveying this… forest.
It was getting dark.
Three figures, one male and two females sat around a campfire.
The fire was lit using a cigarette lighter plug. Only these lighters that does not utilize flammable liquid were allowed on the plane. As for the lighter, it was retrieved from a box belonging to one of the passengers.
Using a branch, they lit the fire. After that, all three of them wrapped themselves in blankets.
For food, they had the meals from the plane. Wrapping the food with aluminium foil, they had them lightly heated upon the fire. While it was unappetizing, it was something they could fill their stomachs with. All things considered, now was not the time to pay attention to this matter.
During this time, Chen Xiaolian tried to start a conversation with the other two females.
Unfortunately, the Japanese flight attendant only knew how to speak some simple English. In addition, there was a strong Japanese accent in her English. As for her Chinese, she could probably only say the likes of "hello" and "thank you".
Chen Xiaolian himself only had an average grasp of English. With the exception of what he had learnt in school, his other exposure to English came from his several years of watching U.S. drama. Simple conversation in English was still possible for him, but in regards to a more complex conversation, things would be hard.
As for the Korean loli…
Chen Xiaolian had been pleasantly surprised to find out that she actually understood Chinese!
However, it only extended towards understanding of Chinese. She had shown that she could somewhat understand his words. However, in the area of conversing in Chinese… she was helpless.
In the middle of the night, the depressive atmosphere became worse as it pressed down on them.
Sometime during the night, an incident occurred that caused Chen Xiaolian's mind to become excited.
He spotted a plane flying over the skies… its light was flashing at it flew slowly through the night sky.
Naturally, he knew better than to start waving around and shout for help… Considering how far up it was, it would be weird if they could see him!
However…
A faint feeling of comfort inexplicably appeared within Chen Xiaolian's heart.
It was probably a sense of humour unique to web writers.
(There was nothing amiss with the stars and the moon in the night sky. In addition, there was also the plane that had flown by just now… At least now I can be certain that I had not transmigrated over to another world or to an ancient time.)
Behind him, the little Korean loli began to cry.
Wrapping herself with the blanket, she curled her tiny body; with tears falling off her eyes, she murmured something in a soft voice.
Chen Xiaolian walked towards her and heard some of what was being said. It seemed that she was crying the words "omma".
That made sense. For a child so young, wishing for her mother at this point in time was no surprise.
Chen Xiaolian inhaled deeply, then crouched down before patting the little loli on her head. The little loli stopped crying and turned to look at Chen Xiaolian, her big eyes fixed into a blank stare.
"Do not worry, we will be fine," A smile was etched on Chen Xiaolian's face. It was both warm and firm – His words were not only meant for her, but also for himself, to strengthen his own belief:
"You will not die, she will not die, and I too will not die! We will survive and return to our homes! I promise! As the only male here, I will protect you… I am still only eighteen-years-old, I will have a great life waiting for me! I have yet to even get a girlfriend! I still have many readers calling me Great God [1]! How could I end up dying in such a terrible place? Do not worry! Oppa will ensure your safety and lead you to your home!"
After saying that, Chen Xiaolian deliberately made a face in front of the little girl. He then shouted out the few Korean words he had learnt by watching Korean variety shows: "Fighting!!"
The flight attendant who was just beside seemed to have been affected by his final words. She smiled, then raised a balled up fist while facing Chen Xiaolian and shouted out. "Ganbatte!"
Well, he could at least understand that phrase.
Chen Xiaolian smiled at her, then turned to observe the dark forest. The smile on his face gradually faded as his eyes turned solemn.
… That night, the little loli and the flight attendant could not hold on and fell asleep. Only Chen Xiaolian did not sleep for the night. It was not due to a sense of responsibility, but because he simply could not fall asleep.
During the break of dawn, Chen Xiaolian woke up the two females, pulling up the Korean loli first.
"Stay here and do not go anywhere, I will go find help! Wait for me. Do not leave this place!"
After thinking about it, Chen Xiaolian used a very simple English phrase to converse with the Japanese flight attendant.
"{Stay_here. Do_not_move! I'm_looking_for_help! I_will_be_back!! Trust_me!!}"
There was naturally some error there, but he could not care about that. As long as the meaning could be understood, that would be fine.
Also… Damn it! This is not a test!
Chen Xiaolian searched for a fairly durable wooden stick to be used as a weapon. Then, he tied his shoelaces, took two bottles of mineral water and stuffed them into his pocket before walking off.

GOR Chapter 4: RUN!!!!!
Chen Xiaolian left at around five in the morning.
For the next few hours, he felt himself falling into the depths of despair!
He walked towards the south direction… his watch only has the south indicating function.
He walked about within the forest for around three hours. After that, he saw…
Seaside!
Coastline.
As the rolling ocean waves crashed down on the rocks, Chen Xiaolian's heart felt a little disappointed.
He also had a faint feeling of unease.
The reason being… on his way here, he did not see any traces of human existences, not in the forest nor the coastline.
The coastline stretched out for a considerably long distance and the sandy beaches were quite the sight to behold. From a tourism perspective, this was a very suitable spot to be developed into a holiday destination. However, there were no traces of human activity here at all.
The beach was clean, devoid of any leftover items or rubbish that could indicate towards human activities.
The same held true for the forest.
Chen Xiaolian furiously roared out against the ocean, venting out the rage within his heart for a moment.
"I do not believe that I will fail to find anyone!"
After saying that, Chen Xiaolian forcefully kicked a stone away.
Considering how many people had disappeared from the airplane, it must mean that they had left… that meant there should be people here! They must certainly have been rescued! However, why did they leave without taking him along?
Well, for them to not take that corpse with them was understandable. After all, it was very obvious that the person had already died…
But I am not dead!!!
There was also that Korean loli, and the flight attendant. They are not dead!!!
Why did they not save us three?!
Chen Xiaolian vowed that when he found them, he would give the airplane captain a vicious beating!
He retraced his steps and returned.
It was about four in the afternoon that Chen Xiaolian finally returned to the starting point that he was at in the morning.
Spotting the ruined airplane, Chen Xiaolian gave a sigh of relief.
En! I did not get lost! If I had ended up getting lost in the forest, then I would be as good as dead.
However, when Chen Xiaolian returned to the starting point, he suddenly frozed.
The fire had been extinguished, and…
The two females were gone.
"Damn it! You cannot be serious! Both of them ran off on their own?!!"
Chen Xiaolian suddenly felt himself about to fall into madness.
The fatigue from walking for a whole day, plus the hunger in his stomach… the two bottles of mineral water had long since been fully consumed by him.
"They actually left without waiting for me? Did someone rescue them?" Chen Xiaolian furiously kicked the ashes of the fire.
It was at this moment in time that he suddenly heard a voice.
The voice had come from the wrecked aircraft cabin!
He turned his head to see a head partially sticking out from the damaged aircraft cabin. It was the flight attendant.
The flight attendant was in a dishevelled state. Her face that had originally been very beautiful was currently facing him as she screamed out in an incredibly sharp voice.
"{E_here}!!! {E_here}!!!"
A small feeling of relief appeared within Chen Xiaolian's heart. He was relieved to know that he was not the only one left…
He smiled bitterly as he walked towards the wrecked airplane. As he was walking there, he shouted out without caring if they understood him. "Didn't I say do not move away? Do you know how scared I was when I saw no one there…"
The face of the Japanese flight attendant suddenly became filled with fear and she screamed out in a panicked voice: "{RUN}!!!!!!!!"
In the future, whenever Chen Xiaolian recalled the events of today, he would be visited by an abnormal feeling of relief. He felt relief at the way he had reacted.
Back then, he did not make any redundant motions, did not utter any nonsense nor did he leisurely tried to seek an explanation from the other party.
Once he heard the Japanese flight attendant's scream, his body seemed to move out of instinct. It was as though his heart itself had already determined the quickest response for him.
Chen Xiaolian did not even bother hesitating nor did he tried to contemplate anything. The very first thing he did was…
Run with all his might!
Run at the fastest possible speed that he could achieve! Run towards the wrecked aircraft cabin!!!
In just a few seconds of time after he began running, Chen Xiaolian heard a loud roar being issued out from behind him!
It was not possible to decide what kind of wild animal it was through the sound of the roar. As for Chen Xiaolian, he had only one thought running through his mind!
Run!!
His heart pounded in a seemingly thunderous tone and he saw that the distance between him and the panicked face of the Japanese flight attendant had been shortened!
Without showing any hesitation, Chen Xiaolian decisively squeezed out every last drop of strength that he could muster!
When he arrived at the entrance to the wrecked aircraft cabin, a flash of thought was suddenly bestowed on him and he vigorously jumped towards the breach on the body of the wrecked plane. Using that comical and exaggerated move, he flew in through the gap of the breach.
From behind him came a heavy sound of a muffled bang.
Peng!!
It was as though a heavy object had viciously struck the outside of the aircraft cabin.
After Chen Xiaolian landed, he hastily turned his head around to take a glance before even adjusting his posture.
That one glance nearly suffocated him.
It was a huge pitch-black shadow about two meters in height; its body appeared to be covered in long black fur. The huge mass of darkness slammed into the outer layer of the passenger compartment and fell towards the ground. Rolling around for a bit, it got up, raised its head, bared its fangs and let out a roar!
The pair of sharp and curved fangs and the gaping mouth left a shocking impression upon Chen Xiaolian's mind!
In his eighteen years of experience since the day of his birth, he had amassed a messy assortment of knowledge from books, televisions, zoo and even the 'National Geographic' series…
He swore in the name of the celebrated King of Outdoor Survival, Bear Grylls!
This thing… was something that Chen Xiaolian could not recognize at all!!
It… What is that thing?!
The body of a wild boar, a feline looking head, with a sharp horn resembling that of a rhinoceros growing out of its nose! Its humongous mouth sported a sharp pair of curved fangs!
As for how violent and strong its gigantic body was, there was no need to elaborate. Its eyes, on the other hand…
What the hell!
Have you ever seen a feline animal with four eyes? Two on the right and two on the left!!
The monster turned its body around as it maintained its position. Facing the wrecked passenger compartment, it let out a loud roar. It shook its head and then began charging with no less ferocity towards the aircraft cabin again.
This time around, Chen Xiaolian was able to witness everything clearly.
Before the monster was able to slam into the ruined aircraft cabin, the surface of the cabin suddenly emitted a blue arc of light. It was this blue arc of light that had fiercely 'propelled' the monster out!
The monster fell to the ground after being beaten off by the blue arc of light, howling out with a voice that seemed to contain feelings of pain. It growled unwillingly twice and circled around its position twice. Suddenly, its body went upright and its stout front paw struck viciously down onto a tree trunk just beside it.
Heavens be my witness! The thick tree, which had roughly the same diameter as Chen Xiaolian's waist, was instantly broken off, the trunk flying off into the distance!
Chen Xiaolian's eyeballs nearly fell to the ground!
The monster slapped its nose and gave Chen Xiaolian who was within the passenger compartment a vicious stare. With a look of unwillingness, it turned its humongous body around and slowly entered the woods. It then disappeared into the jungle.
"I… WQNMLGB[1]!! Son of a bitch! Is this a movie set!!!"
Chen Xiaolian felt himself on the brink of mentally collapsing. "What is this?! Are we even still on Earth?!!"
1. WQNMLGB: A popular online expletive in China."我去年买了个表", pinyin: "wǒ qùnián mǎile gè biǎo" = "i bought a table last year" . It is a twisted version of "我去你妈嘞个逼", pinyin: "wǒ qù nǐ mā lei gè bī" which means something along the lines of doing 'something' to someone's mother.

GOR Chapter 5: Loading
Absolute despair, mental collapse, fear…
Within the plane, the flight attendant slumped down onto the floor, her pair of eyes were in a state of daze as she murmured something.
The Korean loli on the other hand, had shrunk away into a corner, her eyes firmly staring at Chen Xiaolian.
Chen Xiaolian was slumped down in a position not far away from the hole in the broken aircraft cabin. In fact, he was maintaining the same posture he had earlier in which he was trying to turn around and get up.
"What is that? What is that? What the hell… is that thing?!"
Chen Xiaolian felt his heart pounding wildly. He himself was unable to describe what he was feeling, only that he was about to collapse into madness.
Pa ta.
Something dropped out of his pocket and fell onto the floor. It was none other than the steel sphere that he had picked up yesterday. It was likely that his excessively violent movement of jumping into the aircraft cabin had caused it to move over to the side of his pocket.
Gulu, gulu. The steel sphere rolled all the way to the feet of the Korean loli.
Looking at it, the little loli bit her lips before stretching out her small hands to pick it up. Exerting some strength, she held it in her hands and crawled in a timid manner towards Chen Xiaolian's side to hand over the sphere.
"Oppa…"
Chen Xiaolian could not understand what the little loli was saying at all. However, when he saw the item that she was passing over, he felt stunned. Suddenly, he grabbed it and viciously threw it out in frustration.
A bang sound rang out as the steel sphere struck the walls of the passenger compartment and bounced back. However, as it bounced back it struck Chen Xiaolian on his forehead.
Chen Xiaolian gave a stifled cry as he then fell down on his back with a thud.
Amidst his state of confusion, he appeared to be seeing countless flashing of images.
There were those from before he had boarded the plane, when he was on the plane and from the time of the accident. Each one of the images appeared like frames off a movie.
Next, the images suddenly gave out a flash and everything transformed into a sheet of darkness.
"Restarting execution, confirming command directive…"
"Arrival complete, 1%, 2%, 5%, … , 98%, … Warning, arrival failed, arrival failed! Target host body exhibiting irregular variation."
"Warning, arrival is incomplete, errors may arise, please initiate data feedback immediately."
"Executing data feedback… warning, warning! Data link is disconnected, data link is disconnected…"
"Beginning self-test on integration limit, integration limit 1%… 5%… 28%… 69%…"
"Self-test complete, loading mode turned on."
"Loading standard abilities, core mode activated. Beginner mode activated. Inputting instance dungeon codes…"
"Input complete, integration limit complete."
"Host body exhibiting irregularity, sending feedback data on irregularity…"
"Feedback aborted, data link disconnected, data link disconnected…"
"Compulsory boot mode activated, beginning loading mode…"
Takashimoto Shizuka sat blankly on the floor; her back leaned against a first class seat as she looked at the young teenager lying on the floor.
She had already mentally collapsed, or perhaps she was on the very brink of mental collapse.
She had originally been terrified. Even then, she had only assumed this to be an ordinary plane crash. Although she believed that she had been forgotten by the rescue workers, she had still managed to survive. Even if there was temporarily no possibility of being saved, she had survived.
As a member of the airline company, Takashimoto Shizuka was able to maintain a calm state of being. She was familiar with the process involved. She knew that even if the rescue workers had for some unknown reason forgotten them, the airline company would still send some other people to conduct an investigation.
Even if they had to stay here for a few days, it would not be long before the investigators arrive as per protocol. Regardless of what happened, the plane wreckage needed to be discovered and collected.
Most important of all, Takashimoto Shizuka had checked the interior part of the aircraft… the black box of the plane had not been touched by anyone!
Thus, someone will definitely come if they wait here.
This youngster is obviously a Chinese. Takashimoto Shizuka felt very grateful; even though he was young, he had shown courage. He had taken on the responsibility of comforting women and children and going alone to look for help.
She had originally thought that the worst-case scenario was that they would have to wait for a few more days.
Unexpectedly…
… that monster!
If she had not taken the little girl with her into the aircraft cabin to retrieve food this afternoon… if she was still outside by then, it was likely that she would be dead by now!
Monster?
What is that thing?
Or rather… where are we?
In the face of danger, women will instinctively seek something to rely upon. This was especially true for this Japanese woman.
Seeing the youngster, the only male to fall into a state of unconsciousness, Takashimoto Shizuka felt that their future had turned bleak.
As Takashimoto Shizuka was about to burst into tears… she suddenly saw that the youngster had woken up, getting into a seated position.
After he woke up, Chen Xiaolian sat blankly on the floor.
He felt as though he had dreamt of something; yet, he was unable to recall what that dream was.
Fuzzily, he seemed to remember himself looking at a big black screen. Upon the screen interface, a string of characters and numbers were flashing by ….
However, the most messed up part was that he seemed to have an understanding of the meaning of those words even though he clearly could not recognize them.
Wait, wait… calm down… That is right!
The monster!!
Monster!!
Chen Xiaolian breathed rapidly.
A small hand stretched out from beside him, holding a wet towel. It reached out until it was beside Chen Xiaolian's cheeks.
The little Korean loli looked at Chen Xiaolian with dark black eyes, her small face carrying traces of hope, dependence and fear…
"… thank you," Chen Xiaolian accepted the towel and wiped his face.
"Oppa, do you have a headache?"
"En, it does not hurt anymore…" Chen Xiaolian answered subconsciously. Suddenly, he froze.
Wait!
What did she say?
And what did I say?
It was at this moment that Chen Xiaolian suddenly felt his entire body violently shook! It was as though an invisible current was flowing through his entire being! He was propelled upwards like a fish that was violently detonated! After that, he fell heavily onto the floor!
In his field of vision, it seemed as though a row of pale, translucent characters were flashing by…
[Basic mode activated… Loading complete… Please check Personal Setting…]
This, what is this stuff?
Chen Xiaolian blankly 'stared' at the 'words' before him.
Unconsciously, he reached out to touch them… but, the result was that he could not touch anything.
Instead, his fingers came in contact with the little Korean loli's cheeks. The little girl froze momentarily before shrinking her head away in fear.
"So, sorry," Chen Xiaolian was stunned and he quickly retracted his hands. He immediately asked in an anxious manner. "Do you see anything?"
"Oppa, are you not feeling well anywhere?" The little Korean loli asked.
… He could indeed understand what she was saying!
A purely subconscious thought occurred to Chen Xiaolian and he suddenly had a flash of comprehension.
He stared at the 'non-existent words' and the part which stated 'Please check Personal Setting.'
[Personal Setting] …
En, open!
His heart pounding furiously, Chen Xiaolian subconsciously understood: I have acquired, or perhaps I have been placed in a very extraordinary situation…

GOR Chapter 6: Activation? What Is This?
[Personal Setting]
The screen flashed.
Physique: D
Endurance: D
Agility: C
Energy Points: Zero
Comprehensive Melee Ability: C-
Comprehensive Ranged Ability: Zero
… (This is human setting??)
Chen Xiaolian's mind was at a loss. He was suddenly visited by an immense sense of absurdity.
This is a game? A game?? A son of a bitch game?!
Having written numerous web novels and read numerous other web novels of various genres, the well-known Great God [1] novelist Chen Xiaolian immediately grasped onto the key factors.
Game? Transmigration? Infinite elements genre? Or another world?
[Activating coordinates radar] … En? What is this?
Chen Xiaolian tapped it open; subsequently, a hexagonal frame appeared upon the screen.
In the central location of the frame was a flashing green dot.
Beside it were two yellow dots.
Chen Xiaolian considered it for a moment… En, the green dot should be me while the yellow dots would represent the two females…
Eh?
There is also a red dot flashing non-stop. It seemed to be constantly moving?
Its speed is so fast!
At the same time, he heard a loud roar emitted from far away.
Chen Xiaolian's mind lit up: The monster!
Wait… wait…
I am a little confused! I am a little confused!
I need to think about it in detail! Think…
Chen Xiaolian who was feeling muddled sat down.
The Korean loli sat up, running forward unsteadily. She produced a bottle of mineral water from who knows where, then unscrewed it with a great deal of exertion before handing it to Chen Xiaolian.
"… Thank you."
Chen Xiaolian sighed. "What is your name?"
"Oppa, you actually know how to speak Korean!"
The little girl seemed very surprised.
"Err…" Chen Xiaolian was at a loss at how to explain it to her.
"My name is Kwan Ran Soo," The little girl raised her head and said with a clear and tender voice. "Oppa, you can call me Soo Soo, my unnie always calls me that."
"Soo Soo…" Chen Xiaolian smiled and pointed to himself. "I am Chen Xiao Lian."
"Xiao Lan oppa."
"It is Xiao Lian…"
"Xiong Lian oppa…" 练脸
"Xiao Lian (练) !!"
"Xiao Lian (脸) oppa…" [2]
"… Nevermind," Chen Xiaolian gave up on this pointless conversation.
"Oppa, I am scared… where exactly are we? What is this place? And that thing, is it very, very bad?"
That thing… Chen Xiaolian helplessly clutched his head and pondered about the matter. "It is all right, this place is very safe."
As a small child, there was a sense of trust and dependence towards elders in her. Hearing those words, a glimmer of comfort flashed through Soo Soo's eyes. She then found a comfortable place that was close to Chen Xiaolian and leaned down onto the seat.
Takashimoto Shizuka stared blankly at the two of them.
The smooth communication between the two of them, in addition to the fluency of Korean words from the youngster's mouth…
He actually knows Korean?
"Excuse me, you, you two?"
Shizuka could not resist opening her mouth.
"Err…" As expected, Chen Xiaolian found that he could understand the Japanese sentence.
"Please hold on for a while," Chen Xiaolian waved his hand in a rather tired manner. "There seems to be some matters here, I need some tranquillity."
"You can speak Japanese?"
"Hey, if we keep up with this pointless conversation, the readers will think the author is putting in filler words…"
Chen Xiaolian remained silent for over half an hour. After which, he got up and went to the entrance of the aircraft cabin and observed the area outside for a long time.
Roars from the monster could frequently be heard from deep inside the woods. Judging by the roars, he estimated the monster's position and compared it with the red dot on the 'radar'.
Chen Xiaolian was then able to confirm his speculation.
The red dot represents the monster.
Game? Setting?
Considering his identity as a writer, he had never experienced such a bizarre encounter… however, he had written about it before in his fantasy novels! Even if he had not written about it, he had still read about it!
Considering that, his mental fortitude and ability to accept his current situation should at least be higher compared to the normal person.
If this is a game set… firstly, ignore why something so absurd could happen. Solving the current problem takes precedence.
Game… If that is the case, there must be a quest!
Chen Xiaolian searched and found a frame titled [Instance Dungeon Quest] on the interface…
Open! Open it immediately!
Beginner's Quest One: Kill or capture one War Beast, obtain the qualifications to enter Instance Dungeon.
Prompt, a known War Beast: ?
There is a question mark, open!
Instantly, a smaller picture of the earlier monster appeared in his sight.
Four-Eyed War Cat: B Class War Beast. Melee Type. Growth Quality: ???
Four-Eyed War Cat?
Chen Xiaolian's face broke into a sardonic face [3] as he could not help but curse inwardly: Why not a Six-Eyed Flying Fish!
If this is a game… then the designer must be a real bastard!
The quest turned out to be that powerful monster.
But I… How am I supposed to fight it? A blow from its paws alone was enough to bring a tree down!
Considering my small physique…
Wait…
Chen Xiaolian who had experience playing numerous games immediately noticed something.
Beginner…
There should be equipment for beginners, right?
If this is a game, then they would never design a quest that had no possibility of being completed. That would only get the players killed!
There must be some other items that he had yet to discover!
After repeatedly checking several interfaces, including the Personal Settings, Chen Xiaolian exclaimed!
He jumped up from the floor.
Beginner's Equipment Kit!!
Haha! I was looking for you!
Eh?
After opening it, he found a… steel orb?
Feeling a cold sensation in his hands, he lowered his head and saw that the steel orb had appeared upon his palms.
Activate!
Weng!
The steel orb suddenly transformed. This is…
A sword!
A "zi zi" sound similar to that of electric currents rang out. The steel orb within his hand had transformed into a metal handle, protruding from the handle was a beam of light…
At this moment in time, several words flashed through Chen Xiaolian's mind:
Star Wars? Light sabre? Jedi Knight? The Force?
He did not even have the time to bother with the two stunned females behind him.
Chen Xiaolian tried waving this sword.
Chi!
The passenger seat beside him was directly cut into two! The cut was done in a neat manner and had left only a scorching smell!
"It is so sharp!"
Chen Xiaolian then had a sense of fear… Would I end up hurting myself?
[Beginner Strengthening Package]?
Open!
One hundred points?
Under the Personal Settings interface, a '' sign appeared at the end of his personal attribute values.
Chen Xiaolian looked at the interface and pondered for a moment before making his decision.
What late stage growth… now is not the time for that kind of thoughts!
Let us not even talk about what instance dungeons or quests.
There is a monster wandering outside. What is imperative right now is to get rid of it; only then would we have the chance to escape!
Escape this place with our lives!
In that case, add them all into melee!
Endurancel! Physique! Agility!
Chen Xiaolian temporarily left Endurance alone. The hundred points were fairly split between Physique and Agility.
Soon, the points were all spent…
His Physique rose directly from D to C, his Agility rose from C to B.
I do not appear to be feeling any different? Is there nothing akin to a burning feeling or a skill empowerment feeling?
Chen Xiaolian tried extending his hands out, and punched out against the wall of the aircraft cabin …
Bang!
The aircraft cabin wall, made of complex materials was suddenly left with a deep imprint of a fist! A deep dent was left!
Success!
Chen Xiaolian became excited!
He touched his fists… no pain! He truly did not feel any pain!
A state of mind developed after many years of writing novels kicked into action.
Chen Xiaolian did not impulsively take out the sword and go look for the monster for PK [4] – what would happen if he died? Who knows if this 'game' have any resurrection mechanism?
Perhaps… there would only be one chance?
Regardless, he would not take such a risk with his own life.
He sat down near the aircraft cabin's entrance and considered for a very long time…
Observing that the sun was slowly setting down, Chen Xiaolian decided that he could not wait any longer!
He began to get busy.
The two females watched in shock as Chen Xiaolian started dismantling the passenger seats within the plane.
One by one… he had suddenly transformed into a mighty person as some of the heavy seats that were linked together were ripped apart by him!
This scene that happened all of a sudden, caused the two females to become terrified. While Soo Soo was still able to maintain herself, Takashimoto Shizuka shrunk away in fear, regretting the fact that she does not have the ability to shrink herself into a corner – the youngster had suddenly become dangerous.
Chen Xiaolian did not give any explanation. He simply dragged the seats one after another and threw them into the open space outside the plane.
He carefully set up his own 'battlefield'.
The monster's strength is very strong. In addition, it also boasts a high degree of agility… by creating some obstacles, he could limit the strength of the monster and allow him to bring his strength into play.
Hearing a roar coming out from the outside forest, Chen Xiaolian ensured that he had done everything he could in his preparations.
Standing upon the entrance to the aircraft cabin, Chen Xiaolian turned around. Seeing the two females situated upon the corners, he walked over.
"You two, stay here. Do not ever come out… No matter what, do not come out!"
Looking at Soo Soo, the little loli, Chen Xiaolian checked his pockets and found a piece of chocolate. He crammed it into her hands and rubbed her lovely mushroom like hair.
"Be good, wait for me here, I will bring you home!"
Gripping tightly onto the 'sword' in his hand, Chen Xiaolian gritted his teeth and strode out of the aircraft cabin.
At his back, Soo Soo tightly gripped onto the chocolate as she stared with her big round eyes at Chen Xiaolian's back.
"Oppa…"
The name Kwan Ran Soo was translated from '全仁秀'. Pinyin: 'quán rén xiù'.
Something else to note, Physique is the combination of strength and regenerative ability while Endurance is stamina and the ability to take hits. The author only explains this later on.
1. Once again, Great God is a title given to accomplished web writers in Qidian.
2. '练' pronounced 'liàn' means 'train'; while'脸' pronounced 'liǎn' means 'face'. They have a slightly different pronunciation.
3. The word here is actually '吐槽' which directly translates into 'puking groove'. It is used to signify a face that someone makes to show ridicule at something they heard or saw. Their face could contain doubt or other emotions.
4. The author did actually wrote PK. It means Player Killing.

GOR Chapter 7: In Order To Survive
The open space outside the airplane was littered with tens of broken passenger seats.
Chen Xiaolian strode outside, produced a mobile phone and turned on the music, setting the volume to the maximum.
Let's try to use music to lure the monster over…
"You are my little, little apple~"
Son of a bitch, wrong one… The courage that Chen Xiaolian had mustered up with great difficulty was nearly lost!
At a moment like this, shouldn't something like the theme song for Pirates of the Caribbean be the most suitable one!
Oh well! The mobile phone does not belong to Chen Xiaolian. He had randomly picked it up from the aircraft cabin.
A thunderous roar emitted from the distant forest.
"Roar!!!!!"
Following the thunderous roar was the sounds of "sha sha" from the forest. In the next instant, a huge shadow lunged out!
Four-Eyed War Cat?
Bring it on!
The monster did not immediately pounce forward. Instead, it chose to walk slowly and advance with caution. This scene surprised Chen Xiaolian.
He activated the light sabre in his hands. The "zi zi" sound coming off the sword constrained the feelings of fear and impulsiveness within him.
The Four-Eyed War Cat still did not charge in. It maintained a position roughly ten meters away and stared at Chen Xiaolian with its weird eyes.
After staring at one another for one minute, Chen Xiaolian felt anxious and shouted loudly. "Come on! Come on!"
The song 'Little Apple' have already finished playing! Why aren't you crazy bastard moving at all?!
If you do not come inside, would I dare move outside?
As Chen Xiaolian's heart became more anxious, the mobile phone's song changed. 'Little Apple' has finished playing and the phone jumped towards another song…
"What does the fox say? Tchacha-chacha-chacha-chow… Tchacha-chacha-chacha-chow…"
Listening to the Western song 'What Does The Fox Say', the cat finally became offended!
Roar!
With a thunderous roar, the Four-Eyed War Cat charged over! Its target was Chen Xiaolian… not? Its target was the thing before Chen Xiaolian, the… mobile phone?!
Hauling up a passenger seat, Chen Xiaolian slammed it down without any hesitation!
With a Grade B Physique [1, the airline passenger seat with significant weight became as light as a small stool.
It accurately struck its target!
The Four-Eyed War Cat staggered after being slammed; it fell to the ground, then twisted its body and bit out towards Chen Xiaolian! Seeing the huge bloody mouth and the sharp fangs, Chen Xiaolian immediately dodged backwards. At the same time, he grabbed another airline seat and tossed it forward!
The Four-Eyed War Cat avoided the seat. It then waved down, trampling down onto the airline seat that had been thrown at it. With a crunching sound, the seat became deformed. Chen Xiaolian quickly moved to hide himself. His enhanced agility allowed him to move about with speed. The Four-Eyed War Cat tried to charge at him several times, but each time ended with him getting away. At the same time, the light sabre in his hand left several marks upon the Four-Eyed War Cat's body.
The sounds of "chi chi" remained together with the scorching smell. The Four-Eyed War Cat whimpered as its gaze, which was directed at Chen Xiaolian turned increasingly furious.
The light sabre's damage is not enough…
Chen Xiaolian's heart became tense! After glancing around, his heart sank!
The tens of passenger seats that he had arranged have all been either turned upside down or thrown off into the distance!
Back then, he was able to deal with the Four-Eyed War Cat thanks to the airline seats. Considering how much bigger the Four-Eyed War Cat was compared to him, these obstacles effectively limited the speed with which the War Cat moved about. Thanks to that, he was able to barely fight against it. But now…
Roar!
With a roar, the Four-Eyed War Cat charged forward. Without any airline seats blocking its way, it arrived before Chen Xiaolian. Chen Xiaolian subconsciously fell backwards; he felt a powerful gust of wind sweeping past his face! His facial skin burned with pain!
Chi!
Chen Xiaolian screamed out miserably!
On his upper body, his clothes were torn, three bloody claw marks were left, cutting skin and revealing flesh!
The severe pain nearly rendered Chen Xiaolian unconscious. However, the intense pain also seemed to have stimulated a certain unknown area within his mind…
Suddenly…
"Damage taken has reached critical point, small probability of activating Exceed Alter Body Form!"
Chen Xiaolian's ears were filled with a humming sound! Instantly, his entire body brimmed with a powerful force! It replaced his consciousness and dominated his body!
"Comprehended basic Sword Attacks, Linked Dual Slash! Cross Slash!
Shua! Shua!
The light sabre danced in the air, drawing a stunning image of a standard cross!
The cross appeared directly onto the Four-Eyed War Cat's body! It roared out before being slammed away, falling heavily onto the ground. This time, it only shook its head and was unable to get up.
Chen Xiaolian felt himself on the verge of collapse, the sword in his hand becoming too heavy to hold.
Gasping for breath, Chen Xiaolian looked at the weakened Four-Eyed War Cat as it lied on the ground…
This, this should be considered… complete, right?
Once I give it a stab, it should end, right?
Chen Xiaolian exerted himself and moved step by step as he staggered forward.
At this moment, the Four-Eyed War Cat suddenly raised its head and opened its mouth in Chen Xiaolian's direction…
Chen Xiaolian instantly felt something amiss!
This type of action… could it be?
Weng!
A translucent sphere of qi blasted out from the Four-Eyed War Cat's mouth. Chen Xiaolian felt as though he was struck with a heavy punch directly in the face. With a "bang", his body fell down backwards!
Son of a bitch!
It said it is a melee type War Beast!
It said it is a [Melee Type]!!!
Are you messing with me?
Chen Xiaolian fell to the ground resentfully; the light sabre plopped down beside him.
Chen Xiaolian felt dizzy, blood from the gashing wounds on his body had stained his shirt red…
For Chen Xiaolian who still fears the pain of injections, he felt that he had done his best.
He could not muster up even a small ounce of strength; he could only lie down on the ground, staring powerlessly at the monster.
The monster's state did not seem too good either. However, it seemed to be struggling to get up. As for him…
Blood flowed and Chen Xiaolian felt his strength ebbing away…
"Oppa!"
A small figure suddenly rushed out from the aircraft cabin!
Takashimoto Shizuka attempted to reach out and grab her, but failed. Soo Soo ran out.
A small and short body rushed out towards Chen Xiaolian's side.
Chen Xiaolian stared at her. "Why did you come out! Quickly, go back! Go back!"
Soo Soo clung onto Chen Xiaolian's head and started crying again.
Then, she grabbed onto the light sabre on the ground and stood defensively before Chen Xiaolian. Facing the Four-Eyed War Cat, she used a sharp voice unique to small children and screamed:
"Go away! Go away!!!"
Her small body shook violently, tears and snot flowed down at the same time. However, she persistently stood before Chen Xiaolian's body!
The Four-Eyed War Cat had gotten up!
It moved step by step, bit by bit, wheezing through its nose. Nevertheless, it continued moving towards Soo Soo!
"Go away! Go away!"
The little girl suddenly closed her eyes and viciously stabbed forward with all her might…
"Wu…"
The strike had unexpectedly stabbed directly into the mouth of the Four-Eyed War Cat…
The Four-Eyed War Cat stared with widened eyes, as though it could not accept what had just happened. After that… it fell down again!
[Killed Four-Eyed War Cat x1, Loot obtained: Beginner Class Healing Type Beast Blood x2, Four-Eyed War Cat soul x1. Do you want to pick it up?].
[Beginner's Quest complete, Beginner Skill Tree activated, do you want to select Primary Skill immediately?].
Chen Xiaolian groaned; he was only able to consciously confirm it before fainting.

GOR Chapter 8: First Loot
When Chen Xiaolian woke up, it was already dawn.
He opened his eyes and realized that he had been carried into the aircraft cabin.
His body was covered with a blanket.
Straining himself, he lifted the blanket to check the condition of his chest. En, it had been bandaged with gauze, while the smell of medicine remained evident.
These must have come from the emergency kit from the plane.
After recovering some of his strength, Chen Xiaolian felt a little surprised.
Beside him, Soo Soo was leaning against one of the seats, her small body curled into a ball shape as she slept. Chen Xiaolian was able to see that within her balled up fist was the piece of chocolate that he had given her earlier.
"Are you awake?"
A gentle voice came from the other side.
Takashimoto Shizuka had originally been sleeping, but she was not able to sleep properly. She got up from the seat and looked at Chen Xiaolian.
"En… do you have water?"
"Yes, wait for a moment,"Takashimoto Shizuka immediately unscrewed a bottle of mineral water and placed it before Chen Xiaolian's face, pouring it down for him.
Chen Xiaolian felt shy and grabbed onto the bottle of water. "This… I can do it myself."
Takashimoto Shizuka quietly watched Chen Xiaolian for a moment. She then bit her lips and said. "Sorry."
She stood up and performed a very Japanese like bow. "I am really sorry! I am being too cowardly!"
"Eh?" Chen Xiaolian choked. Feeling confused, he placed the water bottle aside and coughed out. "What did you say?"
"I am sorry! Back then, I should have come out to help! You alone had to take on so much burden, but I on the other hand only hid inside the aircraft cabin out of fear and cowardice… I am sorry! Please forgive me!"
Chen Xiaolian tried to get up and reach her, but a severe chest pain accompanied even the smallest movement on his part, causing him to groan out. Takashimoto Shizuka immediately moved over to help him lie down.
"Sorry, sorry, I caused you trouble again!"
"Enough…" Chen Xiaolian smiled bitterly. "Do not talk about this anymore."
He waved his hand to stop the Japanese woman from talking. "Listen to what I have to say first."
"Hai! Please instruct me!"
"…" Chen Xiaolian regarded this Japanese woman silently, pondering for a moment before speaking slowly. "We are currently in a very strange place…" He then pointed at the little Korean loli. "She is just a little child; there are some things she does not know of. However, you are an adult. Thus, there are some things that I need to talk to you about."
"Yes, please go ahead."
"Firstly, I do not know what kind of situation this is. The questions within my mind are no less compared to those within yours. However, I can confirm one thing; the things that have happened to us are bizarre. Do you understand?"
"Understood!"
"En, it is good that you understand. Also, there is no need to stress yourself out. What I did earlier was simply me trying to help us to survive… It may be more accurate to say that I was trying to help myself survive. There is no need for you to be so thankful to me; all of us have the desire to live. Besides… back then, for a woman to face something like that, I do not blame you for being scared. It is simply a normal thing for everyone."
"But… she was able to run out and help you…"
"Little children do not understand," Chen Xiaolian waved his hands. "Perhaps she thought that all this is simply a game. When I was her age, I still believe that there are Superman and Batman in this world. I really believed that the strongest basketball athlete in Japan is Hanamichi Sakuragi!"[1]
Puchi.
Takashimoto Shizuka could not help but burst out in laughter. She then quickly closed her mouth and looked anxiously at Chen Xiaolian.
"Speaking of which, we have yet to introduce ourselves. I am Chen Xiao Lian, you?"
"Takashimoto Shizuka, please advise me."
The Japanese flight attendant did not reach out for Chen Xiaolian's outstretched hand, but instead performed a ninety degree bow.
Chen Xiaolian awkwardly pulled back his hands, tapping himself on the nose.
With Takashimoto Shizuka's assistance, Chen Xiaolian got up and moved towards the aircraft cabin's entrance. There, he confirmed something.
That was…
The Four-Eyed War Cat's corpse… disappeared.
He had already heard from the Japanese flight attendant: After the monster died, it turned into a beam of light and disappeared.
However, he could not feel at ease without ascertaining it himself.
Recalling the prompt that appeared on the interface before he lost consciousness, Chen Xiaolian immediately checked it.
An [Item] box appeared beside the [Personal Setting] interface area.
After opening it, he discovered two lines of note.
Beginner Class Healing Type Beast Blood x2.
Four-Eyed War Cat's Soul x1.
The two words 'Healing Type' immediately attracted Chen Xiaolian's attention. Without showing any hesitation, he tapped it open!
Beginner Class Healing Type Beast Blood: After killing a B Class War Beast or those below B Class, there is a probability of picking this up. It is capable of treating normal external wounds, restoring constitution and strength. Its rate depends on the severity of the injury; the healing effect would gradually weaken.
After tapping it, he found a translucent red coloured mass of liquid appearing on his palm.
It was the size of a thumb and remained suspended upon his palms as though it was unaffected by gravity.
Chen Xiaolian swallowed it without any hesitation. En, it did not give off any taste.
Instantly, a feeling of warmth surged through his entire body. A few minutes later, Chen Xiaolian felt the pain from the wound on his chest beginning to lessen as it gradually turned into an itching sensation.
After untying the bandages, Chen Xiaolian noted that his gashing wound had been closed and healed, leaving only a dark line of bloody scab. This rate of recovery made Chen Xiaolian very happy. Judging by what he could see, his wounds would be fully healed in roughly an hour's time.
The other matter that caused him to become satisfied was that he could feel his strength recovering.
There was one last matter…
[Skill Tree]
Chen Xiaolian opened it solemnly.
A tree-like grid appeared before him.
Melee Type – Sword Skill – Beginner Sword Skill, Linked Dual Slash – ???
The one at the back is labelled ???. That should mean that it has not been activated.
What caught Chen Xiaolian's utmost attention was a box located outside this Skill Tree named [Exclusive Skill]. Upon the box were several ??? symbol.
Tapping on it caused a prompt to appear: Do you want to select immediately?
Of course!
Only a fool would not select.
After tapping on it, he saw three options:
[Element Division] [Life Division] [Hero Division]
This is what you call giving people problems! Without giving any description or conditions, how is anyone to know what to pick?
Closing his eyes, he randomly picked one!
[Hero Division selected…]
En, Hero Division? Whatever…
Instantly, the series of ??? symbols disappeared.
[Selection complete, acquired Beginner Skill, options: Fire God's Howl, Darkness' Descent, Goddess of Dawn, please select one.]
Without any hesitation, Chen Xiaolian selected [Goddess of Dawn].
…this was not because he would often use she-males when playing games![2] It truly was not!
He was purely attracted by the word [Goddess]…
[Goddess of Dawn selected, skill loading complete, Summon Type skill, please use according to prompt.]
Chen Xiaolian immediately opened the Skill Table and found the option for Goddess of Dawn. He had wanted to activate it to see for himself but hesitated after seeing a line of prompt.
[Summon Type skill, usage restriction, using the instance dungeon's time as basis, it can only be summoned once every 24 hours. If the summoner is to die in a fight, then cool down begins for 24 hours.]
Seeing the restriction in the form of 24 hours of cool down, Chen Xiaolian hesitated.
There was no telling how much longer he have to remain here… he also do not know if he would end up meeting with any kind of danger… If another one of those Six-Eyed Flying Fish… ah, wrong, if those Four-Eyed War Cat monsters appear again, then he would have a skill to act as insurance in case he could not defeat it.
If he were to use it now, then if something were to happen within the 24-hour period…
Very well, let's restrain our curiosity.
Eh? That is right! Four-Eyed War Cat!
There is another Four-Eyed War Cat Soul within the items!
Open it immediately for view.
After tapping, a prompt appeared:
[Captured a Four-Eyed War Cat Soul, do you want it to become a War Pet?]
War Pet!?
Chen Xiaolian instantly exclaimed aloud!
Four-Eyed War Cat! He had personally witnessed just how incredible this thing was!
Inexhaustible might! One slap of its paw could break down a tree, this is an adorable asset… ah wrong, this is a fearsome asset! [3]
Such a kind of monster as my own War Pet?
This feeling could only be described as pleasant!
Chen Xiaolian smiled from ear to ear and confirmed immediately!
[Adoption of Four-Eyed War Cat as War Pet successful. Please go to (War Pet) section to inspect.]
Wahahahaha! This is the FEEL, double the pleasure!
Opening the [War Pet] section, a mighty image of a Four-Eyed War Cat greeted him. Below it was a prompt: [Summon it out?]
Chen Xiaolian did not act recklessly. He chose to check out the description: No restriction on summoning frequency or time for this War Pet.
Summon it out immediately! Let this young master admire you for a bit!
Next…
A beam of light flashed out and a figure appeared before Chen Xiaolian…
Or more accurately… before his feet!
Chen Xiaolian turned hysterical…
It's body whirred as its fur sported faint tiger stripes; it nestled down in a languid manner before yawning lazily while its fluffy head began rubbing Chen Xiaolian's legs…
En, there are also two translucent marks on its head.
Red mark, blue mark…
It would be wrong to say that this is wrong… this truly is… a cat type…
But… but…
Damn it! This senior here had obviously obtained a Four-Eyed War Cat!
Damn it! You give this senior a Garfield cat!
It will have a gigantic body they said!
It will have the strength to break apart a tree with a blow from its paw they said!
WQNMLGB bloody Hell!!
This is what you call a Four-Eyed War Cat?
This is a Four-Eyed Adorable Cat!
Falls!
The War Pet rubbed its head against Chen Xiaolian's pants and squinted its lazy looking eyes.
"Meow?"
[Four-Eyed War Cat]
Melee Type
Physique (Strength and regen): B
Endurance (Stamina and endurance): C

Energy Points: C-
Comprehensive Melee Ability: B-
Combat Skills: Tiger Rush (Melee Skill, B Class), Cat's Roar (Ranged Skill, C- Class), Adorable Flash (Are you sure this is a skill?)

Appraisal: A type of War Pet that is very suitable for newbie Players to begin their experience here. Due to its limited Growth Capacity, it is not recommended for long-term adoption. It is distinguished by its powerful Physique (initial circumstances) while its weakness lies in its weak Endurance. It possesses a B Class Physique but its Endurance is of the C Class. Its limited health makes it susceptible to dying in battle.
1. Hanamichi Sakuragi is a fictional basketball player in the anime Slam Dunk.
2. Original sentence here '这真的不是因为他平时玩游戏会用人妖号啊！！！！'. Thanks to the input of the readers, the word 'she-male' here means that even though the character is a female, the one using it is a male. Eg. A male playing an online game creates a female character on his account, thus his character becomes a 'she-male'.
3. A play on two words with same pinyin again. '萌' here means adorable, pinyin: 'méng' . '猛' means fierce, pinyin: 'měng'.

GOR Chapter 9: Shitty Cat
Carrying a desire to puke blood in his heart, Chen Xiaolian tossed the Garfield cat onto the ground. He then sat down cross-legged and read in detail the descriptions regarding [War Pet] within the interface.
After a long time, he finally stood up and gave a sigh.
En, it turns out… War Pets have two forms, [Adorable Form] and [War Form].
This so-called [Adorable Form]… There! This Garfield who is showing off its adorability is what you call [Adorable Form]!
As for the [War Form, do not expect it to instantly transform into the majestic monster that Chen Xiaolian encountered before. Its War Form will possess significantly higher capabilities, however, those needed to be nurtured!
In other words, the Four-Eyed War Cat that Chen Xiaolian had fought against was a mature War Beast. However, after being captured, it was transformed by the system into its initial state, just like a new player.
Various aspects of its abilities needed to be nurtured step by step! As for the other stuff, Chen Xiaolian could not understand.
Very well!
Let us not think about this first. The first goal should still be to leave this place, then to figure out how to return home!
Even though the earlier danger had been relieved, Chen Xiaolian's mind did not become at ease at all.
This type of encounter is simply too bizarre – Heavens, I am only a student and webwriter. Is there any need to give me such a stimulating experience filled with vicissitudes?
Setting… game…
There was no new instructions in the damned [Instance Dungeon Quest].
Yesterday, didn't it say that that killing one monster would allow it to activate?
Besides that, there was one more question within Chen Xiaolian's mind.
What about the other people on the plane? Where did they go?
Assuming that he had become a 'newbie player', then…
Are there any other players here? Are there other monsters similar to the Four-Eyed War Cat? Or perhaps a more powerful monster?
Most importantly, how do I return home?
Could the outside world… find this place?
His discussion with Takashimoto Shizuka resulted in the following. According to Takashimoto Shizuka's prior experience of flying on this route, judging by the estimated flight time and if the aircraft did not go off course, then their crash site would be somewhere within the South Pacific Ocean.
In the beginning, everyone was feeling confident. They felt that even if they could not find any way out, they could stay here and wait for the arrival of rescue workers. But, with the appearance of such a terrifying monster, this confidence had begun wavering.
The only one who was feeling relaxed was probably Soo Soo.
While Chen Xiaolian was discussing with Takashimoto Shizuka in low tones in a corner of the aircraft cabin, Soo Soo was cheerfully running around the aircraft interior. As a child, it was normal to have a high level of obliviousness. Perhaps, she really thought of yesterday's monster as playing house or a game?
En, Soo Soo was holding onto Garfield close to her bosom – that is right, it is Garfield. That is the name that Chen Xiaolian had decided to give to this pet.
"Oppa, he seemed to be very tired."
"Oppa, is he hungry?"
Chen Xiaolian was momentarily surprised. He looked at the Four-Eyed War Cat that Soo Soo was hugging close to her bosom and saw that it was indeed somewhat listless.
They tried to feed it some milk, but this bastard gave the milk a glance and turned its head away in disdain.
Among the flight meals, there were some bags of dried fish. This cat only stuck out its mouth before turning away disdainfully.
"Perhaps we should leave this place and search around. This would likely be a risky move," Chen Xiaolian finally voiced out his thoughts. "However, I have a hunch that staying in here is not a good idea. It also would not solve any problems."
Takashimoto Shizuka seemed to be hesitating.
The biggest issue was this aircraft cabin. This place seemed to be capable of protecting everyone as proven by the Four-Eyed War Cat's attack. It was unable to enter the interior of the aircraft cabin and was repelled by an invisible force.
(Perhaps this is similar to a safe zone for a beginner village?) This was not the first time Chen Xiaolian had thought about this.
Nevertheless… one cannot stay in the beginner village forever, right?
"In that case, it would be better if I go alone to search," Chen Xiaolian hesitated as he made this suggestion.
Truthfully, there was some apprehension within his heart. After all… what if there are other 'players' within this island? The passengers and crewmembers of the plane had all inexplicably disappeared…
Would the two females be safe if they stayed here? Even though the aircraft cabin is a safe zone capable of repelling monsters, other players should be able to… in that case…what would happen if they end up meeting wicked people?
"I will leave the choice to you," Chen Xiaolian said in a serious tone. "If you follow me and leave this place, we may end up meeting with danger, but I might be able to protect you. If you stay here… it may be safe, but there is also the possibility of encountering unknown dangers."
Pausing, Chen Xiaolian voiced out his concerns. "It may be possible that there are other people on this island."
In the end, Takashimoto Shizuka chose to stay.
Chen Xiaolian did not say anything.
He himself has no answer for this.
As he left again, Chen Xiaolian did not feel confident despite him possessing 'super powers'. He kept having faint feelings that the current situation is amiss and is growing more dangerous.
In addition, Chen Xiaolian also did not inform Takashimoto Shizuka everything about his own circumstance.
Especially regarding him being able to see a strange 'interface', he chose to remain silent about it.
This time around, he decided to move in the opposite direction compared to the last time.
Chen Xiaolian constantly kept his eyes on the [Coordinates Radar] interface as he carefully moved through the forest.
After yesterday's fight, he judged that the effective radius of the radar is around two to three hundred metres.
A distance of three hundred metres is enough for him to react or make a run for it if he encounters a monster. However, what if he were to encounter another human? Would the other party also possess the same kind of radar? Could they also detect him? Would they be good intentions or ill intentions?
Garfield moved along behind Chen Xiaolian in a lethargic manner. Its running speed was not slow, but it had obviously become tired.
Finally, a prompt appeared as they climbed up a slope.
[Warning, your War Pet had not eaten in 24 hours. Please feed it as soon as possible. If not fed, the War Pet's health will decrease by 10% per hour. When its health reaches zero, the War Pet will die.]
Chen Xiaolian legs were planted firmly on the ground as he cursed out a string of expletives.
"Just what is it that you want to eat?" Chen Xiaolian squatted down and looked at Garfield.
Garfield: "Meow…"
It cannot be that it needs to feed on its owner's flesh, right?
Chen Xiaolian decided to follow his imagination. Hesitating slightly, he gritted his teeth as he rolled up the sleeves of his arm. "Come on, I will let you have one bite."
"Meow ~ " Garfield sniffed it and then left in an indifferent manner.
"… son of a bitch."
At this moment, a reaction appeared on the radar!
A red dot appeared on the radar before disappearing instantly!
Chen Xiaolian's face turned intense. Picking up Garfield, he looked around and quickly jumped up onto a big tree. With his strengthened body, Chen Xiaolian nimbly leapt up the tree before hiding himself amidst a dense foliage of leaves.
The red dot on the radar appeared again.
The movement this time was extremely fast compared to yesterday's Four-Eyed War Cat. Chen Xiaolian silently calculated the distance in his mind.
200 metres… 100 metres… 50 metres…
As the red dot was about to close in, it suddenly turned towards another direction. After that, it moved around in a circle at a distance of 50 metres away.
"En?"
Chen Xiaolian was surprised. Chen Xiaolian who was hidden amidst the leaves tried to search with his eyes but was unable to see anything unusual.
Could it be an invisible monster?
It should not be possible…
Following the position displayed on the radar, Chen Xiaolian finally set his sights onto a mound of soil 50 metres away.
He double checked it and determined that he was not being delusional! The mound of soil seemed to be moving.
After several movements, it stopped. The soil was turned over and a head emerged…
A triangular head and the standard body of a reptile. Chen Xiaolian judged that even if it is not a snake, it is likely to be something similar to lizards.
Damn it, I hate these cold-blooded animals… Chen Xiaolian felt nervous. In his childhood days, a snake had bitten him. Thus, the thing he feared the most is snakes!
He firmly gripped the handle of his light sabre and suppressed the impulse to summon the [Goddess of Dawn].
After the monster had fully climbed out of the ground, Chen Xiaolian gave a sigh of relief. This monster looked to be of the same type as a pangolin.
Its body mass was not as intimidating as the Four-Eyed War Cat, however, its entire body is wrapped by a pitch-black rocky hide. In addition… its body would faintly produce a pale green light. This gave Chen Xiaolian the impression that it should not be underestimated.
The pangolin slowly moved towards the tree that Chen Xiaolian was hidden on. As for Chen Xiaolian, his heart was already sweating. He stared nervously at the creature… Its crawling speed was not too fast. However, what kind of capabilities does it have?
Suddenly, Garfield who was held close to his chest made a reaction!
Garfield suddenly opened its mouth and cried out, following which Chen Xiaolian could feel Garfield struggling to seemingly escape Chen Xiaolian's hold! Its cat hairs were already standing on its end!
Before Chen Xiaolian could react, Garfield had already let out a cry and leap out!
"Ah! Come back!"
Even as it was in the middle of the air, the cat had already begun transforming, its small body quickly expanding! When it landed, Garfield's external body shape showed some resemblance to yesterday's War Cat form.
Its body shape had become as big as a dog; an extra pair of eyes grew on its head. On its paws, sharp barbs extended out of its surface.
Garfield howled before violently charging towards the pangolin!
"What the hell!"
Chen Xiaolian was shocked. He never imagined that the bastard would be so warlike!
The pangolin responded immediately. Without waiting for Garfield to charge over, it thrust headfirst into the ground! Garfield's charge struck empty air and it quickly used its claws to scratch the ground.
Suddenly, a head emerged from the ground with lightning like speed from behind Garfield, directly facing its fat buttocks!
Garfield cried out and rolled its body over. It then stood up, a scar evident on the back of its thigh. The pangolin on the other hand, slowly climbed out of the ground.
The pangolin suddenly leapt out!
Chen Xiaolian felt as though there was something wrong with his eyes!
So fast!
Garfield was hit again. This time, the pangolin's claws left a bloody mark on Garfield's forehead. The poor cat screamed out and rolled away again. Without waiting for Garfield to be ready, the pangolin began moving at lightning like speed again and scored another hit!
Looking at what was happening, Chen Xiaolian was both anxious and vexed.
"Damn it, you took the initiative to provoke it but could not fight against it? Are you an idiot?"
Chen Xiaolian hesitated briefly. He then gritted his teeth and jumped down from the tree!
"When beating up a cat, you need to first look at its owner! Go to Hell, you bastard!"
The light sabre slashed out, but the pangolin's speed was surprisingly fast and it ducked under the sword slash. Chen Xiaolian felt a black shadow coming from the side and was barely able to turn his head.
Shua!
His shoulder burned with pain! Chen Xiaolian knew that he had been injured!
The clothes on his shoulder were torn apart and a bloody gash appeared, causing blood to flow out from it.
"You bitch!"
Holding onto the sword, Chen Xiaolian went to face it again. This time, Garfield too rushed forward.
A human and a cat. Although they were in a disadvantageous spot in terms of speed, a joint attack would give them a little momentum.
During the several times in which they fought, Chen Xiaolian exerted all he could muster to hack down with the light sabre while Garfield was also working hard at charging the pangolin. Nonetheless, the pangolin was unusually agile. It moved and jumped about continuously, leading to Chen Xiaolian and Garfield going out of breath. Yet, they still could not restrain the pangolin.
Chen Xiaolian had already suffered wounds in four places, he could feel his endurance slipping down. At this moment, he felt a pang of regret. He regretted his actions of using his strengthening package points on Physique and Agility.
It appeared that his Endurance was too lacking. A few rounds was enough to leave him gasping for breath, his chest aching with a feeling akin to being torn apart.
Running away? Would this monster allow him to run? Considering the pangolin's speed, Chen Xiaolian would not be able to outrun it if it wants to kill him.
Chen Xiaolian looked onwards as the pangolin utilized its lightning like speed to leave another wound upon Garfield. Once Garfield was dealt with, he would be unable to fight it alone!
Suddenly, an inspiration flashed through his mind!
"That is right! I am such an idiot!"
All those novels that I have written were for naught!
"Garfield!"
Chen Xiaolian turned around and quickly ran towards a big tree at the back. Positioning his back to face the tree, he gripped tightly onto his sword.
With this, the area that he needed to deal with was greatly reduced. The pangolin attacked twice, but with the tree to his back, Chen Xiaolian only needed to use his sword to hack down quickly and avoided any loss on his part. Garfield also seemed to be shrewder; its animal instincts led it to move closer towards Chen Xiaolian.
Then, when the pangolin tried to charge Chen Xiaolian one more time, his light sabre finally slashed onto its body.
A "chi" sound was emitted and the pangolin cried out miserably. It bounced off and drilled into the ground without any hesitation.
What the Hell!
At this moment, a series of loud sounds came from behind him!
Ka ka ka ka ka
"Holy shit!"
Chen Xiaolian turned pale and pushed himself out to the side!
The tree that was acting as a barrier behind him came crashing down!
The pangolin leapt out from below the tree and ruthlessly pounced towards the back of Chen Xiaolian who was on the ground! Chen Xiaolian felt as though an iron hammer had pounded him in the back. Suddenly, pain erupted in his chest and all the air within his lungs were forced out…
Then, Garfield suddenly opened its mouth and unleashed a transparent sphere of qi…
Chen Xiaolian could only curse out inwardly: Me too???
Bang!
It felt as though he had taken another punch, so many stars…
Chen Xiaolian felt his own body being blown up to the skies before falling down. The pangolin was obviously struck as well. But, its body appeared to be moving slowly and was unable to quickly get up.
[Prompt: War Pet Four-Eyed War Cat launched the 'Cat's Roar' skill. Small probability of inducing stun triggered. Effect will last for five seconds, five, four…]
Chen Xiaolian shouted aloud inwardly! Additional effect of stun?!
This is a good opportunity for a final attack!
But…
Damn it! The senior me has also been hit with stun effect ah!
Chen Xiaolian lied on the ground with his limbs outstretched.
(I can only count on you, Garfield. Quickly give him the final attack!)
Chen Xiaolian looked expectantly at Garfield and nearly coughed out blood!
Possibly due to having used the Cat's Roar, he had probably used up all its strength. Garfield had already abandoned its War Form. Its body shook for a bit and shrunk rapidly… it transformed from an indomitable Four-Eyed War Cat into that adorable fat cat!
Garfield: "Meow ~ ~ ~ ~"
Chen Xiaolian: "… … …"
WQNMLGB bloody hell!
He watched as the pangolin climbed back up again…
Chen Xiaolian's heart was filled with grief: The Heavens want me to die!!!
Xiu!
A sharp piercing sound!
A sharp arrow descended from the skies, piercing directly into the pangolin's neck and nailed it tightly onto the ground!
Chen Xiaolian's mouth gaped as he stared with wide-open eyes at the pangolin that transformed into a beam of light before disappearing…
Instant kill!
On the radar, two green dots approached at a rapid rate!
"Eh? There is another player here?"
It was a woman's voice, the tone was slightly husky but was filled with a faint trace of indescribable flirtation.

GOR Chapter 10: The Sheep Amongst A Pack Of Wolves
A man and a woman emerged from a clump of bushes.
Chen Xiaolian was able to identify the woman instantly… it was the chief flight attendant of the airplane! She looks to be around thirty years-old with beautiful and alluring features. Judging from her looks, she is the standard glamourous mature woman type.
She was no longer wearing her flight attendant uniform. Instead, she wore a somewhat over-the-top leather armour, her bosom was propped up high, the battle dress was extremely short and she wore a pair of high heeled leather boots…. Chen Xiaolian felt really curious. How could this woman run through the mountains and jungle while wearing high heels?
He noted that this woman's hand was holding onto a compound bow. A quiver of arrows hung on her left thigh.
As for the man beside the chief flight attendant, his stature in itself was over-the-top.
His arms that were definitely as thick as Chen Xiaolian's thighs were left bare. The powerful set of muscles on him was similar to that of body builders.
He wore an open neck sleeveless gown which was again, simply exaggerated. In addition, he sported a Mohican hairstyle…
However, what concerned Chen Xiaolian the most was the sword in the other party's hands!
That sword must certainly be a metre in length. Observing it, it does not even look like a sword! It is simply a smaller sized door.
"How can there be a player here?" The woman walked forward in a seductive manner, her waist twisted gently and her voluptuous thigh, coupled with the high-heeled leather boots gave her legs a slender image.
Chen Xiaolian observed that the woman had one arm propped upon the man's shoulders, one of her breast resting upon him – Son of a bitch, one look is enough to tell that there is something going on between them. [1]
"How would I know? The damage values for the impact during arrival was not calculated properly this time, our Team Leader had said that he planned to start a fight with the Development Team once he return." The man answered in a rough voice.
"What does he know," The woman curled her mouth in disdain. "Could it be that those that were left behind in the plane Awakened after we left?"
"That should not be possible. Back then, we had checked. All of them were dead, four in total, two males and two females."
The woman twisted her waist as she moved before Chen Xiaolian. After that, she bent down, looked right into Chen Xiaolian's eyes, and asked. "Who are you?"
Chen Xiaolian was able to smell a rich fragrance coming off the woman's body. At the same time, he was quickly digesting the things he had heard earlier.
Damage values for arrival?
Team leader?
Development team?
The amount of information here is too much!
He did catch on to one critical factor: This woman does not recognize him!
How was that possible?
She is the chief flight attendant, responsible for taking care of the First Class cabin. After he had boarded the plane, he had asked for a bottle of beer from her. She had even personally brought over the slippers for him!
However, at this moment when she was looking at him in the eyes, she could clearly not recognize him…
He is obviously a person! [2]
His careful habit cultivated through many years saved him yet again.
He scowled as he tried his best to not reveal any fluctuation in emotions. Then, with a cold tone of voice, he replied. "When I woke up, I found that everyone had already disappeared. When I return this time, I am going to curse the Development Team to death."
The words "curse the Development Team to death" probably struck a chord with them.
"Hahaha ha ha…"
The woman instantly let out a soft laugh. Chen Xiaolian noticed that as she laughed, her exposed breasts would quiver…
En, they are at least D cup.
"Eh? This is your War Pet?" The woman's seductive eyes fell upon Garfield and seemed somewhat surprised, her smile dissipated as she said. "To think that someone would actually adopt a Four-Eyed War Cat as a pet."
She then turned to look at Chen Xiaolian. "You must be a newbie, right? First arrival?"
Countless thoughts flashed through Chen Xiaolian's mind. Not knowing how to answer, he simply gave a grunt in a cold manner.
"Very well, little brother. You have quite the handsome look. A little fresh meat like you is just the thing that I like the most."
This woman then extended two fingers and pinched Chen Xiaolian on his cheeks. "It is not a problem if you are a newbie, I will protect you! Haha… very interesting, there are quite a few newbies this time around. However, you are much better looking compared to the newbie in our team. That kid is just like a dummy, not fun at all."
Seeing the woman about to extend her hand with the intention of groping about, the muscular man at the back finally could not stand it any longer and gave out a cough, his eyes expressing displease.
Chen Xiaolian quickly turned his head before backing his body away as he tried to get up.
For some unknown reason, there was a faint feeling within his mind: I cannot reveal my identity!
Besides… these two people seemed to be… part of the same group?
Putting on a calm expression, he retrieved the last Beginner Class Healing Type Beast Blood and purposely swallowed it before the two of them.
Chen Xiaolian noted that there was disdain within both their gaze.
Soon, the wounds began to heal, the blood stopped flowing and he could feel his strength returning.
"Little brother, you had better just throw away this Four-Eyed War Cat. Using this pet would only cause others to laugh at you. It is known as the number one failure in setting by the Development Team. Hahahaha. If you are unwilling to do it yourself, then I can help you kill it, ok?"
As she spoke, the woman's mouth seemed as though it would end up coming in contact with Chen Xiaolian's face.
However, a trace of killing intent flashed in noticeable fashion within her face, causing Chen Xiaolian's heart to be struck with fear.
"No!" Chen Xiaolian immediately refused. "It is my War Pet, I will handle it myself."
"That is enough, Sara (shā luō)! Is there any meaning to you harassing newbies?"
The muscular man finally became impatient. He walked over and gave Chen Xiaolian a cold glance. "Little kid, follow us. Do not say any nonsense and do not randomly interrupt us. After the quest is completed, we will give you a part of the rewards."
Chen Xiaolian gave a "heng".
"Your pet do not seem too energetic. How long has it been since you fed it?"
Chen Xiaolian hesitated for a while. "One day."
"Eh?" The eyes of the woman called Sara revealed a trace of doubt which dissipated immediately. "I forgot that you are a first timer. What is the matter? Did you not bring any pet food with you? Why aren't you exchanging?"
Exchange!
This is a key information!
This meant that there is an existence of an Exchange System!
Chen Xiaolian was unable to answer Sara's question. As he was hesitating on how to answer, the muscular man said in disdain. "What is there to ask? He must have spent all those initial cash on useless items. I have seen quite a few of these newbies. In one quest, I saw a bastard exchange all his cash into strengthening supplements. In the end, he could not endure a single battle. He did not even have any health restoring medicines, and collapsed due to exhaustion."
"Hahaha… interesting. Damon (dá méng), did you really meet such an idiot before?" Sara then looked at Chen Xiaolian. "He does not look like that kind of idiot to me."
The woman smiled seductively. Suddenly, her arm stretched out to seize Chen Xiaolian's shoulders. "Let us go. When we return, I will find someone to loan you pet food. My War Pet had evolved after the last battle and need to stay asleep for at least two instances. That is why I did not bring any pet food with me, so I cannot loan you any. Damon? Did you bring any?"
Damon spread his arms. "You know that my pet do not eat pet food."
"Heng, cheapskate," Sara went over and placed a finger on Damon's lips and smiled. "What is the matter? Jealous? Are you actually jealous of a little kid?"
"Heng!" Damon's gaze fell upon Chen Xiaolian's face. "Let us go! You should be almost recovered, right? Heng, bringing newbies is just troublesome."
Damon narrowed his eyes and briefly looked over Chen Xiaolian and muttered. "Melee Type, Comprehensive Melee Ability at only C, heng. A burden."
Chen Xiaolian instantly narrowed his eyes!
He could see my attribute values!
Is it through the interface?
Chen Xiaolian remained immobile as he tried checking it out. Unfortunately, he could only see a grey picture of the other party and was unable to check them out.
"No need to look, we have Concealment Cards. Are you curious as to what our abilities are? Tell us yours, we will exchange information, ok?"
Sara moved towards him again.
Chen Xiaolian purposely pretended to retreat. His heart on the other hand, was at ease.
This is a big chested no brains woman – Chen Xiaolian gave out his assessment.
During the course of their conversation, the amount of information that Chen Xiaolian had obtained from this woman called Sara had been very substantial! On the other hand, the vigorous looking Damon who did not talk much was much harder to deal with.
En, the earlier words from this woman had exposed another key information.
They are able to view my comprehensive attribute values, but are unable to view my abilities!
The Exclusive Skill [Goddess of Dawn] is temporarily unknown to them.
This is a good thing. No matter what, to be able to hide a trump card that the other party do not know of is always a good thing.
Regardless of whether he was willing or not, Chen Xiaolian could only follow the two of them.
En, they seem like… an organized team?
On the way, Damon asked Chen Xiaolian a few more questions. Chen Xiaolian answered that after he woke up from within the plane and saw that everyone else had left, he went out alone and wandered about. As for the rest, he does not know.
"Are there any others on the plane?"
"There were three people there, all three should be dead," Chen Xiaolian gave a vague answer.
"Why did you not come find us immediately?"
Chen Xiaolian immediately answered. "I needed to kill a monster before I could be qualified for the instance dungeon… that is what the prompt said."
"Hahahaha, that is why you end up adopting a Four-Eyed War Cat as your pet?" Sara interrupted.
Those words ended up saving Chen Xiaolian as Damon then lost interest in continuing his interrogation.
The travelling speed of these two was extremely fast. Many times when it comes to running at full speed, Chen Xiaolian was unable to keep up – even though his physique had already been strengthened! While his endurance was still weak, a C Class Physique had allowed him to smash through the aircraft cabin's wall. The explosive power he could unleash in a short interval far outstrips the average human. However, he was left far behind even in the area of short ranged sprinting.
These two individuals are apparently stronger than him.
This is especially true of the woman known as Sara… this woman instant killed the pangolin that had nearly killed him and Garfield!
Damon, on the other hand, was obviously dissatisfied with Chen Xiaolian's speed. After having to stop and wait for him for a few times, Damon became increasingly irritated and even kicked Chen Xiaolian's legs on two occasions. Even though he felt indignant, Chen Xiaolian endured it in silence.
Chen Xiaolian suddenly had the feeling of encountering a big spender in a game. [3]
After travelling for a long time, they finally emerged out of the forest and moved towards a mountain.
While climbing over the mountain, Chen Xiaolian who was standing on the mountain peak finally saw the missing passengers who were on board the plane! They were within the foot of the mountain valley.
Within the valley, various tent like structures were erected.
On the side, there were also people hobbling around a fireplace.
The people number at about a hundred, every one of them was wearing strange looking clothes. Sara and Damon who seemed so peculiar now seemed inconspicuous.
It was Chen Xiaolian instead, with his normal jacket that stood out.
Chen Xiaolian carefully observed an interesting phenomenon: The tents within the valley were not all linked together. They were instead separated to the east and west, with many areas left separated. It was as though they were deliberately putting up space between them.
As for the people of each area, they were only standing guard beside their own tents and did not communicate with others of a different area.
En?
Different factions?
Chen Xiaolian secretly note it down.
"Later on, you better smarten up," Sara suddenly smiled softly as she extended a finger to hook onto Chen Xiaolian's chin. "If someone tries to invite you into their team, you know what to say, right?"
"…" Chen Xiaolian nodded his head in a knowing manner. "I will say that I am already following big sister Sara."
"Haha, you are a smart kid. I really want to give your face a bite," Sara laughed tenderly. "But, it is not me. It is our Team Leader. Remember, our Guild name is the Wind Slasher Guild. The Team Leader this time is our Guild Deputy Leader, Newton."
Newton (niúdùn)?
Very well, the name is somewhat strange. However, by gaming standards… strange nicknames should not be too surprising.
Even if he was called 'Grassy Mud Horse' [4] , Chen Xiaolian would not bat an eye.
"That is right, I have yet to ask what is your name."
"My name is… Xiao Lian (face)," Chen Xiaolian sighed, the Korean loli, Soo Soo suddenly appeared in his mind.
"Xiao Lian? En, your face really is very small," Sara pulled Chen Xiaolian along, bringing him down the mountain. Damon followed them from behind.
Chen Xiaolian had a feeling that Damon was staring at him with a seemingly… sinister gaze.
TL: Just in case anyone forgot, the Lian in Chen Xiaolian's name actually means 'train'. So, he is technically giving a false name here.
1. The sentence here is '妈的一看就有一腿好不好'. It means that those two have a sexual relationship going on.
2. That is more or less what the author wrote '明明是一个人啊'.
3. The more money you put in an online game, the more powerful you are, usually.
4. Muddy Grass Horse is translated from '草泥马'. Pinyin: 'cǎonímǎ'. It has some vulgar meaning to it.

GOR Chapter 11: Identity Crisis
The campsite within the valley was very lively.
The Wind Slasher Guild that Sara is part of was located at the left side of the mountain. Chen Xiaolian found that the location was a very good spot. The left side of the mountain has the highest amount of steepness, thereby eliminating the problem of defending the rear. In addition, the leeward winds here were better than the blowing winds in the mouth of the valley.
Most importantly, the terrain here is clearly somewhat higher compared to others.
Glancing around hastily, Chen Xiaolian determined that this place is definitely the best location within the entire valley – Putting it in a different manner, for the 'Wind Slasher Guild' to be able to secure this piece of terrain when faced against so many other teams, their strength must be very good.
On his way into the camp, Chen Xiaolian had been secretly making preparations. Even though he had not revealed any flaws before Sara and Damon… he was very clear that a person capable of becoming a leader would have top-notch abilities, especially in the area of thought process. He was very worried that when facing the one known as Team Leader Newton, he would end up being exposed.
When he laid eyes on Newton, Chen Xiaolian broke out in cold sweat.
Newton… is that pilot!
The "I wish you good luck" fellow!
Newton possesses a lean body shape and was wearing a combat soldier uniform reminiscent of an interstellar science fictional movie. Chen Xiaolian noted that upon his waist was an exaggerated looking metal belt; several card slots were affixed on it.
Sara took the initiative to move forward. Before Chen Xiaolian's eyes, she passionately hugged Newton – that was definitely not a simple hug between comrades. Chen Xiaolian was incidentally able to see Sara gently pinching Newton's waist in a secretive manner.
Sara conversed with Newton in a low voice while pointing at Chen Xiaolian.
Newton walked over.
Chen Xiaolian suddenly felt cold sweat flowing out from his back. He tried to maintain a façade of indifference and composure, carefully placing his uncontrollably trembling hands behind.
"You are the newbie that Sara picked up on their way?"
Newton's face was expressionless; however, Chen Xiaolian could feel the traces of vigilance within his gaze.
"Yes."
"We seemed to have met before? At the airport, the washroom's entrance."
After Newton said those words, Chen Xiaolian almost answered subconsciously. But, he instantly realized what was going on!
"I have no idea what you are talking about," Chen Xiaolian shook his head in a dull manner.
Too dangerous!
He nearly forgot. That Sara was obviously unable to recognize him… In other words, after she transformed from the chief flight attendant into Sara, she could no longer recognize him!
Thus, if he is a 'normal player', then he should not have any memory from before the plane crash!
But… something is not right… if everyone would lose their memory, then why could this Newton remember the incident that happened at the entrance of the washroom?
Sara who was at the side laughed. "Newton, have you really met this kid before?"
"En, in the airport washroom," Newton lightly replied. "He lost his boarding pass and was nearly unable to board the plane."
"Hahahaha… how absent-minded, Xiaolian, it appears the host body that you have been given is not too good…" Sara giggled softly, causing her huge breasts to quiver.
Sara moved forward and squeezed his face again. (Damn it, why does she like to keep doing that?) Sara laughed and said. "Our Team Leader is this time's Navigation Staff. He had arrived even before the plane began flying off. That is how he could recall everything that happened in the Lower Plane. Back then, you have yet to arrive, it is only natural that you cannot remember."
Navigation Staff… Arrive…
Chen Xiaolian quietly memorized those critical words deep within his mind.
Seemingly having lost interest in questioning Chen Xiaolian, Newton waved his hand. "All right, let him go mingle with the other newbies."
Damon brought Chen Xiaolian over to the smallest tent, and then kicked him on his thigh. "Rest here and get to know your team mates. Remember, our Wind Slasher Guild have only two requirements: When orders are given, do not be lazy. When there are none, do not cause trouble."
There are four people within the group of newbies, a stocky middle-aged Asian man. He sports a Mediterranean hairstyle. A young woman with a bland and skinny appearance, she gives off an indifferent expression and gaze. A strapping and sturdy white man, his body resembles a big brown bear… one glance is enough to determine that he is a Russian tribal warrior.
The last one is a youngster whose age is about the same as Chen Xiaolian. He seemed to be around eighteen-years-old with highly average looks. However, his eyebrows are very thick, just like a pair of brushes.
Mediterranean raised his head to glance at Chen Xiaolian before closing his eyes and continued resting. The skinny female was seated beside a fire pit, concentrating solely on cooking some unknown food.
The tribal warrior was in the midst of performing push-ups. He raised his head to look at Chen Xiaolian before continuing.
As for the youngster, he stared at Chen Xiaolian up and down for a few seconds, his eyes showing a somewhat strange expression. Nonetheless, the youngster shifted his seating position to allow Chen Xiaolian to sit beside him.
Chen Xiaolian took the hint and sat beside him.
"My name is Xiao Lian (face), you?"
"Han Bi."
Han Bi's voice was a little hoarse and he lowered his head. A few seconds later, he could not help but raise his head and look at Chen Xiaolian for a bit.
The four of them were wearing similar looking clothes, a black coloured army like protective suit. It seemed to made of certain composite materials.
"Xiaolian, your equipment have been issued."
Not far away, Sara threw over a protective suit. Chen Xiaolian caught it hastily.
"Wear it quickly, we will be bringing you out in the night for a quest."
After saying that, Sara left.
Chen Xiaolian looked at the protective suit in his hands… honestly, the shape is reminiscent of the protective suit worn by a certain special force in 'Dragon Ball'. However…
How to wear it?
This item seems rigid, giving off the feeling of hard plastic. A cylindrical shaped body… could it be that it needs to be forcefully pulled down through the head?
Chen Xiaolian suddenly realized the danger that he was in! If he does not know how to wear this suit, would that expose his true identity?
He raised his head. Fortunately, none of the surrounding people were looking at him. As for the few newbies…
En?
The youngster called Han Bi was looking at him quietly.
Chen Xiaolian's heart sank, he could feel that Han Bi had seen through him.
Suddenly, Han Bi made a minor movement, which caused Chen Xiaolian's eyes to lit up.
Han Bi twisted his head. Then, putting an act of scratching himself, his left hand forcefully pushed down on a spot behind his right shoulder.
Chen Xiaolian quickly checked the back of the right shoulder on his protective suit and found a depressed notch.
Chi…
It was as though air was being vented out. The originally stiff protective suit suddenly turned soft. Chen Xiaolian quickly wore it. He turned to look at Han Bi who had at an unknown time turned back his head. Han Bi looked at Chen Xiaolian, his eyes carrying a trace of a meaningful… smile.
Chen Xiaolian became nervous.
In the evening, Damon walked over to the newbie group. Standing there, he pointed. "You, you and you, follow me. The rest of you are responsible for catching twenty Firefly Frogs. Return before dawn!"
The ones he pointed out were Mediterranean, Skinny Woman and Tribal Warrior.
As for Han Bi and Chen Xiaolian, they were assigned the quest of catching 'Firefly Frogs'.
Observing Damon lead the three people away, Han Bi turned to Chen Xiaolian. "Let's go. If we fail to complete the quest, we will be punished."
Chen Xiaolian noticed that Han Bi was winking at him secretly, causing his mind to be shocked.
The two of them left the valley's campsite. As they were passing by the members of other teams, they could clearly feel the disdain and faint hostility directed at them from within the other teams' gazes.
Chen Xiaolian remained silent and followed Han Bi out of the valley. The two of them entered the forest, continuing onwards until they reached a small stream. There, they could faintly hear the sounds of insects…
Suddenly, Han Bi stopped. He then violently turned around; without giving Chen Xiaolian any time to react, he had thrown his hunched body to crash into Chen Xiaolian!
Chen Xiaolian was greatly surprised. He instinctively backed away, but Han Bi had already produced a shining dagger in his hand. The dagger stabbed towards Chen Xiaolian's neck!
Chen Xiaolian was startled and immediately pulled out his own light sabre. He exerted himself to push Han Bi back, then he snapped in a low voice. "What are you doing!"
Han Bi held on to the dagger in his hand and faintly smiled at Chen Xiaolian. He suddenly extended his left hand. Upon it was something small and black, with the shape of a bottle cap.
Puchi…
It was as though something was leaking out and the protective suit that Chen Xiaolian was wearing suddenly became soft. The originally durable composite material turned into something akin to snot, sticking softly onto his body.
"This…" Chen Xiaolian turned pale.
Han Bi's eyes lit up even more. "As I expected! You do not even know how to use the Beginner Protective Suit. After wearing it, you did not close off the safety device! This is the most basic knowledge, don't you know?"
Han Bi walked forward, his eyes staring at Chen Xiaolian in an imposing manner. "You, are not a 'Player'!"
Chen Xiaolian's heart was shocked!
Instinctively, various thoughts flashed through his mind… I am exposed! What to do now? Run? Silence him?
It was at this moment in time that the sounds of footsteps came from a distance away. There were also sounds of conversation, signalling that there was more than one person!
Chen Xiaolian was able to recognize that the voices belong to Damon and the other three newbies.
This time, he had lost all hope!
Forget silencing Han Bi, he would not even be able to escape! As long as Han Bi shouts out…
It is all over!
His hand that was gripping onto the light sabre was already filled with sweat, dripping profusely.
It was at this time when Chen Xiaolian had already lost all hope…
Han Bi suddenly made a strange move. He quickly hid his dagger and vigorously waved at Chen Xiaolian – It seemed that Han Bi was indicating to Chen Xiaolian to not say anything. Han Bi also pointed at the light sabre in Chen Xiaolian's hand.!
Chen Xiaolian was shocked. Han Bi stared at him with widened eyes, seemingly anxious.
Chen Xiaolian followed and turned off the light sabre.
"Why are you two here?"
Damon brought the other three person over, his face frowning. "Why aren't you working? Are you lazing about?"
Han Bi slowly replied in a dull voice. "We could hear the frog sounds earlier. After you came, they were frightened away."
"… Don't make excuses. If you fail to complete the quest, I will personally punish you."
Damon stared at the two of them with an overbearing attitude. Then, he led the three newbies towards another direction and left.
After they had left far away, Chen Xiaolian breathed a sigh of relief. But, his heart pounded again as he looked at Han Bi with a complicated expression. "You… just what is it that you want?"
Han Bi spread open his arms, and slowly walked over. His next words nearly caused Chen Xiaolian's heart to jump out!
"What if I tell you, I am also the same as you? I am not a real 'Player'."

GOR Chapter 12: My Fan Turned Against Me!
"You don't believe? My real name is Han Bi, ID number 3301XXXXXXX… Residence, Hangzhou City West Lake District… I study in the XX twelfth high school. My trip this time was done to represent my school in an international aircraft model competition. Your seating position in the First Class cabin is one beside the window. The reason I am able to remember you is because of the beautiful little loli that was sitting beside you. Am I right? As you can see, I can remember everything clearly. If I am one of them, I should not be able to remember those things."
Chen Xiaolian listened as his tightly clenched fists slowly lightened.
He asked. "Then, how did you…"
Han Bi did not reply immediately. He first moved to one side and checked his surroundings. After ensuring that there was no one around, he waved to Chen Xiaolian. "Come with me, this place is still too close to the camp. Let us find somewhere we can talk."
After walking downstream for a few hundred metres, the two of them sat down face to face behind a huge rock in a rocky area beside the stream.
Han Bi began his narration.
"When the plane crashed, I fainted. However, there was a peculiar feeling, akin to having electricity flowing through my entire body, causing my heart to beat rapidly!" He pointed to his chest. "My heart seemed to have transformed into a large water pump, and I felt as though every blood vessel in my body were going to burst. After that… the airplane landed and I realized that those around me were all in the same condition as me. All of them had expressions of discomfort on them."
"After the plane successfully landed, the pilot, Newton came out from the cockpit. It was then that I realized that something was wrong with the people around me."
"En, how do I put it? It was as though they had turned into strangers. It was as if…"
"They were no longer who they were."
"How did you come to that conclusion?" Chen Xiaolian asked.
Han Bi smiled bitterly. "You have seen the skinny woman in our group of newbies, right? She is the teacher in charge of our competition participation. But, after the airplane landed, she suddenly could not recognize me."
A cold shiver ran down Chen Xiaolian's spine… it was a somewhat terrifying feeling.
"In the beginning, I did not understand what had happened. But then I saw that everyone was very calm. It was as though… they did not just recently experience a plane crash, but had successfully completed a journey and had arrived at their desired destination."
"Everyone was feeling excited. In addition… the one known as Newton quickly brought everyone away from the plane. En, there were some people who seemed to know one another. These people then came together to form a number of groups."
"Back then, I was terrified. I realized that I was the only who was different. Thus… I dared not do anything that was different from them and could only remain in silence."
"Due to that, they assumed that I am a 'newbie'."
Chen Xiaolian asked thirstily. "And then?"
"After that… I was invited by Newton into his team. He is a Navigational Staff and seemed to be willing to accept 'newbies'. Let me tell you, the other teams were all unwilling to accept newbies. With the exception of our group, no other teams have newbies in them."
"What then is a newbie?" Chen Xiaolian.
"The meaning of newbie… it probably meant that it is their first time joining this 'game'," Han Bi smiled bitterly. "I have been pretending to be a dull and reserved person. Sometimes, I also pretended to be a little stupid; I also did not engage in too much conversations. Thus, the information that I gained is unlikely to be detailed. Most of the time, I maintained silence and tried to eavesdrop on the conversation of others, making speculations bit by bit."
Having said that, Han Bi laughed. "Take this protective suit , for example. In the beginning, I too do not know how to wear it. I deliberately acted sluggishly, lazing away as I observed the other newbies wearing it first. Then, I learnt how… that was how I did not get exposed."
Chen Xiaolian asked in a heavy tone. "Then, what is this 'game'? Where exactly are we, are we even still on Earth? Or, could we have transmigrated into another world?"
Han Bi laughed. "That is also the one thing I wanted to know right at the beginning."
He then produced a peculiar looking thread and placed a few thin hooks on it. Next, he took out something thick and sticky that seemed to be a medicine of sorts. Han Bi carefully applied it on the hooks before throwing the thread into the creek, his hand holding onto the thread.
Chen Xiaolian nodded. "En, why could the others recognize each other?"
"Exactly!" Han Bi replied. "Clearly, they have experienced this 'game' more than once. They have teams and their own organization. En, it is just like the guilds that we have in online games. If that is true, then comes another problem… who exactly was it that organized this game? In this world, what powerful organization could create such a magical game? You should have already obtained some super powers, right? And then there are those strange monsters. Have you ever encountered such an incident in our present reality?"
"No," Chen Xiaolian firmly shook his head.
"That is why… I feel that not even the current US government could have the ability to create this game."
"Then, perhaps we have really transmigrated to another world, thus explaining the strange monsters and these super powers?" Chen Xiaolian asked.
This matter is within his line of work after all. As an online web writer, the cross over setting was the first thing to cross his mind.
"Perhaps your speculation is correct. However, I have another opinion."
"Do tell," Chen Xiaolian squinted his eyes.
"Look around, there is only one sun in the skies and one moon in the night. There are also the seas, land, plants and temperature; day and night lasts for 24 hours… it seemed as though there are no differences between our Earth and here, right?"
"Could it be that the solar system in which this world is located in would 'coincidentally' have one sun as its star? This planet also just 'happen' to have one moon as its natural satellite? In addition, this planet's speed of rotation is also similar to Earth. It also happen to have the same level of gravitational pull? Don't you think that this is too coincidental?"
"Thus, in the beginning I felt that we should still be on Earth."
"Or perhaps… this is a virtual reality modelled after Earth and we have been sucked into this world by some mysterious force; similar to … things like online games or a movie or even a novel."
"You mean infinite element?" Chen Xiaolian spoke out the term from his 'profession'. [1]
"That is right! That is what I meant! You read online novels?" Han Bi laughed.
Chen Xiaolian smiled but did not answer.
"I have only heard of some people being dragged into the infinite element… I have never heard of an entire Boeing plane being sucked into an infinite element virtual world…" Chen Xiaolian smiled bitterly. "This is still just a speculation on our part. After all, infinite element is something that the online novels created."
"True that," Han Bi thought about it and agreed with Chen Xiaolian. "We will need to slowly feel it out and find the answers. En… but we need to be careful not to expose ourselves. I feel that these people are not the good type. Since you have read novels on infinite elements, you should know just how brutal and bloody things can get…"
"I still do not understand, why is there such a difference between us and the other newbies." Chen Xiaolian pondered upon it. "All of us are in this game for the first time, so why is it that the other newbies could seem to understand many knowledge as common sense while we…"
"That is also what is causing me so much distress," Han Bi smiled bitterly. "I have come to realize something. All of them… newbies included, are all clear on why they are here. They are aware of what they need to do, aware of the 'common knowledge' such as the methods of wearing the equipment and those rules. However, the two of us had seemingly entered here by accident… as though…"
"You mean unauthorized entrant?" Chen Xiaolian's eyes lit up before turning dismal. "If this truly is an infinite element type of world, then those who were together with us in the plane, are those who came from the present Earth, just like us. Do you realize what this means?"
Han Bi was momentarily stunned.
Chen Xiaolian sighed and smiled bitterly. "This means that within our present Earth, there exists an infinite element related organization! Think about it, how terrifying is this?"
Han Bi was dumbfounded and both their faces turned somewhat gloomy. Even the atmosphere had turned heavy.
At this moment, the thread in Han Bi's hand suddenly shook and he reacted immediately. His hand pulled and the thread that was thrown into the water was brought out. Several frog like creatures with black bodies were hung upon the many hooks below the thread.
Each of them was of the size of a matchbox.
"This… is Firefly Frog?" Chen Xiaolian stared with widened eyes.
"En, they will automatically glow in extremely dark places – I heard others talk about it and had it memorized. I applied the bait that Damon gave me on the hooks. These things are easy to catch. As long as you apply the bait, it will get hooked by itself," Saying that, Han Bi handed him a hook and a small piece of bait. "You try."
"Would these things attack?"
"Be careful not to come in contact with the mucus within their mouth. Your skin will turn red and itch. That is all."
Seeing Han Bi throwing the Firefly Frogs into a bag, Chen Xiaolian had a sudden thought. "I think… their next move would probably be to enter a very dark place that has no source of light!"
Han Bi nodded. "I thought about it as well yesterday. They have been sending people to capture this stuff for the past few days."
The two of them got busy for a while and finally managed to catch 20.
As they were about to return, Han Bi suddenly asked. "That is right, you said you are called Xiao Lian (face), but what is your real name?"
"… Chen Xiao Lian, Chen (陈) with East (东) on its side, and Lian which means practice." [2]
Han Bi suddenly frowned, he tilted his head and pondered on something. "Chen Xiaolian, Chen Xiaolian… why does this name sound so familiar?"
He gave Chen Xiaolian a puzzled look. "Eh? I remember there is a rather famous web writer, his pen name is Fatty Uncle Wu. His real name seems to be Chen Xiaolian, could it be…"
"…hehe," Chen Xiaolian laughed dryly and hesitated for a moment before nodding his head and admitting it. "That is me."
"What the hell! Aren't you a thirty something year old fat uncle?" Han Bi jumped. "You are neither an uncle nor fat!"
"Eh, that is simply a joke. I purposely hid my true state."
Han Bi exhaled, the stare he gave Chen Xiaolian turned more peculiar with every passing moment. "In other words… it really is you? The 'Law of XX', 'Unparalleled XX' were written by you? I have given you a Hegemon Award before!"
"Really? You have actually awarded me with Hegemon before! Heavens, are you my hard-core fan?" Chen Xiaolian was surprised.
"Fan your sister! You keep leaving your chapters with no update, breaking your promises; this senior had long since turned against you! Back then, the one who got banned after cursing you in the review section is me!"
Chen Xiaolian. " … "
1. Once again, infinite element is a genre which was apparently first popularized in the novel Terror Infinity. In these novels, elements such as religion, science, myths, movies, animations, history, etc. would all be inserted.
2. Chen Xiaolian's surname Chen = '陈' has an East character = '东' on its side. And as mentioned before the Lian in his name means 'practice'.

GOR Chapter 13: I Am NPC?
The two youngsters stared at each other for a moment before letting out a sigh at the same time.
"Sigh, forget it. I do not have the strength to talk about this right now."
"That is correct, ensuring our survival and finding out how to leave this place is more important," Chen Xiaolian spoke out. "If we really die here… then my novel will be castrated."
"Pei, even if it does not get castrated, your novels are not much different from an eunuch," Han Bi viciously replied.
Chen Xiaolian touched his nose and smiled, then he suddenly spoke. "There are a few more problematic details. If our speculation is true and that we had entered here by accident into an infinite element world of adventure, then those who were on the same airplane as us are actually infinite element players from Earth. If so… how did we end up becoming unauthorized entrants? Logically speaking, if this is an infinite element world, then the Host God should be an omniscient existence, right?"
"Don't talk about that anymore; the more you talk about it the more afraid I am… I fear that the two of us would be wiped out at any given moment."
Chen Xiaolian sighed. "That is right, there is one thing I want to confirm. How did you obtain your abilities and become 'player'?"
"A metallic sphere, similar to a steel ball."
"… Just as I expected," Chen Xiaolian suddenly asked. "Everyone has one steel ball, right?"
"Indeed, after the plane had crashed, I realized that this item had appeared out of thin air into my pocket – this is true for others as well."
Chen Xiaolian did not say anything.
Because… a trace of discomfort had suddenly appeared in his heart!
Metallic sphere!
Steel ball!
Clearly, that is something that allows one to obtain the 'player' status, something that could turn an ordinary person into a 'player', making them part of this game world, gifting them with abilities and accepting them into the system.
However… this steel ball is something that everyone has?
But…
Chen Xiaolian was certain that he…
Did.not.have.a.steel.ball!
The steel ball that allowed him to become a 'player' and obtain those abilities was not his own! It was acquired from the corpse of a 'player' in the aircraft!
Assuming that… only 'players' have the steel balls, then the player who died on the plane died due to some unexpected factors. Thanks to that, the steel ball ended up in his hands.
However… since we are both 'unauthorized entrants', why is it that Han Bi would have a steel ball? If something like a game system did exist, then why did it 'include' Han Bi as a player and assign him a steel ball?
On the other hand, I did not get one?
En, Takashimoto Shizuka and Soo Soo also did not get it!
Why is that?
Could it be…
A peculiar thought suddenly flashed through Chen Xiaolian's mind.
Could it be… everyone else are players.
As for me… and the other two females.
We are… NPCs?
This idea was too absurd, so much so that Chen Xiaolian dared not ponder deep into it.
He did not even inform Han Bi about him not getting 'equipped' with a steel ball.
It was not that he did not trust Han Bi, but rather… his heart felt deeply disturbed!
By the time the two of them returned to the camp in valley, it was already midnight.
The others from the newbie group had already returned. Chen Xiaolian saw that Mediterranean was pale, his chest bandaged with gauze, and was drinking a bottle of potion. The Tribal Warrior held on to a weapon resembling a military knife and wiped it as he sat beside the fire. As for Skinny Woman, she was already asleep.
Han Bi handed over the caught Firefly Frogs to Damon who maintained his cold countenance. The Team Leader Newton, however, spoke out. "Well done."
One tent was clearly insufficient for five newbies. Thus, Chen Xiaolian and Han Bi took the initiative to move together to one side. The leaned onto a piece of rock and sat together.
"By the way, do you have pet food?" Chen Xiaolian recalled something important.
Garfield had already been drawn into the system, but the poor thing had yet to eat anything. Considering the time, if he does not feed Garfield soon then the poor cat's life may be forfeit.
Although this cat had entrapped its owner… (Its hidden attribute is not 'Entrap Owner' by any chance, is it?) [1]
No matter what, it is still his pet. He cannot allow it to starve to death.
"I have pet food, but the things that pets eat are different. My pet food is for the Dog Type. What type of pet is yours?"
"… cat."
"In that case, you won't be able to use mine," Han Bi shook his head. "Just exchange it yourself. Just use points for it."
Points?
Exchange?
Chen Xiaolian had found another difference between him and Han Bi!
He simply does not know anything about those points. As for the Exchange System… there is none in his System Interface!
Originally, he had thought that he was only different from those real players… after all he is an unauthorized entrant.
Unexpectedly… even though the both of them are unauthorized entrants, there are actually differences between them?
"My points are not enough," Chen Xiaolian smiled bitterly. "Could you borrow me some first?"
"Cat food, right?" Han Bi did not give it much thought. He immediately exchanged out a jar of pet food from the system
Chen Xiaolian accepted it, a small glass jar. He opened it and glanced inside to find that there are tens of pieces inside…
Biscuits!
Cat shaped biscuits!
"Feeding one is enough for 24 hours. In addition, a pet that has been fed could slowly recover from injuries and physical strength when placed within the system. Pets cannot recover if they are hungry," Han Bi laughed. "This jar of cat food costs 5 points, remember to pay me back."
Chen Xiaolian had wanted to ask what 'points' are and how to acquire them in order to exchange out those items.
However, their current location makes it inconvenient to discuss these matters. Moreover, his heart had become increasingly uneasy. He simply chose to shut his mouth.
Summoning Garfield out, Chen Xiaolian fed it a small piece of cat biscuit. Seeing his dying pet eat up, he then threw it back into the system.
"Quickly go to sleep. We may have to begin the Instance Dungeon Quest tomorrow," Han Bi said in a low tone. "Revitalize yourself, only then could we have the strength to protect ourselves."
Instance Dungeon Quest!
These words caused Chen Xiaolian's eyebrows to jump.
Clearly… Han Bi knows the specifics involved in the Instance Dungeon Quest!
For Chen Xiaolian however, the description for the Instance Dungeon Quest could still not be opened!
… this is yet another difference!
Am I really an NPC? An NPC who picked up a player's equipment?
With this question hovering in his mind, Chen Xiaolian closed his eyes. The past two days had indeed been tiring for him.
Even before the skies had turned bright, Chen Xiaolian had already woken up. His physique that had been strengthened was clearly far superior to the common people. Although he had only slept for a few hours, his mind felt fully rejuvenated.
Looking around, he saw that the camp had become busy. As for those from the newbie group, they were all up busy with their own personal matters.
In the other team's camps, preparations of weapons and equipment could be observed. Strangely shaped swords and other weapons were brought out. There were also some odd looking fire arms. For example, there were those that resembled rocket-launchers, while some others gave off an extreme sci-fi feeling.
At this moment, a sharp voice was heard.
"Team Leader, look what we found!"
A tall and lanky man quickly strode into the Wind Slasher Guild's camp.
A shining baldhead, fine lined chin and a big nose, he wore a black cloak and both his wrists were wearing exaggerated metal bracers.
"This person is called Du Ya. Be careful. Among the members of Wind Slasher Guild, this person is the most sinister and ruthless. For the past few days that I have been in this Wind Slasher Guild, I have suffered no small amount thanks to him. Even though Damon is rude, he only has a bad temper. But this Du Ya… at any rate, just be careful of him."
Han Bi who was standing beside Chen Xiaolian warned him in a low tone.
Unfortunately… Chen Xiaolian heard none of those words!
His eyes were wide open as he stared at the one called Du Ya… or more accurately, he was looking at the two figures behind him!
Anger flashed within Chen Xiaolian's eyes!
Takashimoto Shizuka and Soo Soo had their bodies tied up with a metal rope that seemed to be sparkling with a certain rhythm.
Both of them seemed dispirited as they followed behind Du Ya. It was clear that they were being forced.
Shizuka's expression was one of stupor, her eyes carrying a deep amount of fear as she lowered her head, too fearful to look around. The arm and sleeves area of her flight uniform was torn off. Soo Soo was even more pitiful.
The little loli's face was dirty and filled with dust, leaving two trails of tears down each cheeks, her eyes swollen and red. She had been sobbing non-stop all the way. On her feet, only one shoe could be seen.
Under those circumstances, Chen Xiaolian suddenly felt a surge of blood rushing into his head!

GOR Chapter 14: Internally Worried Externally Distressed
Before Chen Xiaolian could make his move, Han Bi suddenly moved over. Standing right beside Chen Xiaolian, he secretly pinched Chen Xiaolian's wrist.
"Do not act impulsively!"
Han Bi spoke in a low tone.
Chen Xiaolian gritted his teeth and turned to look at Han Bi.
Han Bi looked at the two females and whispered. "That younger one… I remember that she is the one seated beside you. Is she an acquaintance? Friend or little sister?"
While he spoke, Han Bi glanced at Chen Xiaolian and quickly continued in a low voice. "Regardless, do not act impulsively… once you charge out, then everything will be over. Your identity will be exposed and you can forget about saving them! Endure, then wait patiently for the opportunity…"
Newton had already moved towards Du Ya. Looking at Du Ya, he then looked at the two girls behind. "What is going on?"
"Ha, I do not know what is going on either. I was hunting a War Beast; unexpectedly, the hunt led me farther away and actually brought me all the way back to the aircraft area. In the end… look what I found!"
"Two NPCs?" Newton curled the corners of his mouth. Moving closer, he looked at the two females with a cold expression. Takashimoto Shizuka was scared to the point of having her entire body shiver while Soo Soo bit down hard on her lips, tears falling down from her eyes.
Newton's expression turned odd. "I did not hear anything about this instance having NPCs. This is a harvesting type instance and the selected location is one that is not densely populated. As for those in the plane, they should all be host bodies. Why would there be NPCs present?"
"Who the Hell knows. But… this would not be the first time that the Development Team made a mistake," Du Ya sneered as he stretched out his tongue to lick his lips. His eyes was turned towards Shizuka in a greedy manner as he openly stared at the flight attendant's stocking covered legs. "Team Leader, since this is an accidental harvest, how about giving them to me? We have been preparing here for three days and have been feeling too bored. We might as well have some fun. Hahaha…"
"Development Team problems will be reported by me when I return," Newton spoke with a cold voice. "Du Ya, constrain yourself. If this was two days ago, I would not have cared what you wanted to do. However, today is different – the instance dungeon is about to open. Reserve your physical strength. If there is still time after this instance is complete, this woman will be your toy; you can do whatever you want with her – but not now! If you mess up this quest, I will personally tear out your bones!"
A trace of disappointment and indignation flashed across Du Ya's eyes and he grunted. "Very well, you are the Team Leader!"
He turned around and moved beside Takashimoto Shizuka, raising his nose on purpose and sniffed at the Japanese flight attendant's neck. He laughed. "How fragrant… this is truly a pleasant surprise! However, good things could be left for last. Once the quest is completed, I will take my time to enjoy you."
Having said that, he extended his hand and heavily slapped down onto Takashimoto Shizuka's buttocks. The Japanese flight attendant screamed sharply, dodging over to the side and nearly falling onto the ground.
"Calm down!"
Han Bi sensed that Chen Xiaolian was about to make a move. Han Bi increased his strength as he grabbed onto Chen Xiaolian's wrist, muttering in a low voice. "If you do not want to die, then endure! Besides… you are definitely not their match, trust me on that."
Chen Xiaolian exhaled deeply, his taut body finally easing up.
"All right, put these two NPCs aside. After the instance dungeon opens, we may be able to use them to open the way," Newton sneered. "Sara!"
Sara immediately moved towards Newton's side. "What is going on?"
"I want you to look after these two people," Newton laughed. "I cannot trust that Du Ya, his self-control is simply too weak."
Sara laughed gently and sent a flirtatious glance at Newton. She walked over and looked at the Japanese flight attendant.
Shizuka's eyes became wide open as she looked at Sara in horror. "Chief flight attendant?"
Sara laughed. "Chief flight attendant? Ah, I nearly forgot, my host body's identity is the plane's chief flight attendant. Unfortunately, I am not your Chief flight attendant. Also…" Sara stared at the Japanese flight attendant's face. "Looking at your beautiful face makes me irritated. Do not talk to me and do not provoke me, or else I will carve your face right now."
Takashimoto Shizuka's body trembled, she bit her lips and was too fearful to say a thing. She could only use her frightened eyes to look at Sara.
Sara then knelt down before Soo Soo.
"What a cute little thing," Sara extended her hands to pinch Soo Soo's cheeks. She then turned over to Newton and asked. "I like this little one, can I take it as my pet? I want to make a cage and stuff her inside. After that, I will get some beautiful clothes for her."
Her voice was gentle, but the words she said caused a shiver to run down the spine of those who listened.
"I have said it before, after the quest is complete, you can do whatever you want. That is if those two are still alive by then."
Newton grunted and looked at the skies. "All right, it is getting late. Speed up the preparation process! The Instance Dungeon is about to open up!"
Sara took over the custody of the two females from Du Ya. Du Ya gave a "heng", his face expressing dissatisfaction, but he clearly dared not disobey Newton's command.
However, when Sara was leading the two females into the Wind Slasher Guild camp, an accident occurred.
Soo Soo suddenly spotted Chen Xiaolian who was standing beside Han Bi. Her eyes suddenly turned bright as she shouted out sharply. Crying out, she ran towards Chen Xiaolian.
"Oppa! Quick save me!"
Although her body was tied up with ropes, Soo Soo rushed forward and crashed headfirst into Chen Xiaolian's chest.
Chen Xiaolian was shocked.
Beside him, Han Bi's heart pounded madly as he subconsciously stepped back, releasing his hold on Chen Xiaolian's hand.
Soo Soo fell onto Chen Xiaolian's bosom and started sobbing bitterly.
Chen Xiaolian could feel several gazes turning towards him.
Newton, Sara, Du Ya… and also Damon who was standing far away with folded arms as he watched on with a cold expression. Within the Wind Slasher Guild's campsite, several other team members from other tents had also turned their gazes over.
Towards the crying Soo Soo, Chen Xiaolian had wanted to hold up this poor child and hug her. At this moment, however, his heart was racing uncontrollably, the cold sweat flowing down his back seemed to have soaked his underwear.
The few seconds of time in which it transpired had seemingly lasted for centuries!
In the end, Chen Xiaolian did not move his arms. He only looked down at Soo Soo – his expression one of motionless indifference.
"What is this? This little child seem to recognize you."
Sara gently laughed as she moved over – in Chen Xiaolian's ears, her originally pleasant sounding gentle laugh had turned harsh and cold!
Secretly sighing, Chen Xiaolian tried his best to put on a vexed tone. "How am I supposed to know?"
In his bosom, Soo Soo continued crying. "Oppa, why aren't you saying anything. Why won't you save me… wu wu wu wu wu…"
Chen Xiaolian raised his head as he ignored her and looked at Sara. "Why aren't you taking her away?"
"It seems that this little child is very fond of you," Sara narrowed her eyes.
"This little child probably recognizes Xiaolian's host body…"
The one who spoke out was Han Bi. He stood at the side and said carefully. "After all, everyone here were boarding the same plane. Maybe Xiaolian's host body have some relation with this little child. Also, didn't the woman earlier called you the chief flight attendant?"
"Eh? This idiot suddenly became clever," Sara curled her lips.
Sara's hands shot out at lightning like speed, grabbing onto Soo Soo's hair. She pulled the little girl away, ignoring her struggle and threw her at Takashimoto Shizuka. "Hold on to her and follow me. If you disobey, then I will first kill you."
Takashimoto Shizuka held onto Soo Soo in fear as she herself was shedding tears. She forcibly clamped onto Soo Soo's mouth, whispering something to her in rapid succession before following Sara as she held onto Soo Soo.
Before leaving, Takashimoto Shizuka gave Chen Xiaolian a glance but dared not say anything.
"You owe me one," Han Bi purposely approached Chen Xiaolian with a smiling face. He placed his hand onto Chen Xiaolian's shoulder, putting on an amiable look. He then spoke in a low, angry voice. "… what is going on with these two females. You did not tell me anything about them at all last night! It seems there are a lot of things that you are not telling me!"
Chen Xiaolian. "…"
"Shut your mouth," Han Bi coldly spoke. "From now on, I won't trust you anymore. If you want to die, then do not drag me with you!"
Sure enough, he then released his hands and moved over to a side, sitting down. He never turned to even look at Chen Xiaolian again.
Chen Xiaolian silently gritted his teeth and sat down not far away from Han Bi as he secretly clenched his fists.
Internally worried and externally distressed!
In this unfamiliar and dangerous guild, his future is uncertain… and the one companion beside him is now estranged.
Chen Xiaolian felt an extreme aching in his head.

GOR Chapter 15: Rowing Without Paddles
In the afternoon, just as the sun was rising, Chen Xiaolian suddenly heard a burst of loud noise originating from the ground below his feet!
After that, the entirety of the ground started shaking with severity, as though an earthquake had occurred.
Just as quickly as it arrived, it was gone the next. The encampment suddenly bustled with activity – not due to panic, but excitement!
No small number of them was cheering happily while some others were whistling loudly.
It was at this moment that Newton vaulted up onto a rock and shouted in a loud voice that spread out through the entire valley.
"The opening time for the Instance Dungeon has arrived! Everyone get ready!"
At the same time, a very conspicuous message prompt suddenly appeared before the system interface for Chen Xiaolian to 'see'.
[Prompt 1: Instance Dungeon 'King Solomon's 72 Demons Series has opened. Objective, kill the defenders, acquire King Solomon's 72 Demons Pillar Fragment. This instance dungeon is a B Class Resource Type Instance Dungeon. Note that this instance dungeon produces various types of resources for collection, good luck to all players].
[Prompt 2: This Instance Dungeon is a Magic Type Instance Dungeon. Restriction Conditions will be placed upon Science and Technological equipment, skill and usage].
[Prompt 3: This instance prohibits personal feuds between players; players are not allowed to kill other players. Once such a violation occurs, the system will dispense punishment].
Chen Xiaolian carefully read the prompt and heard cursing sounds from Newton who was far away.
"Son of a bitch! Restrictions on technological types? Why didn't it say so earlier?"
Newton angrily took out his rage on a lone soldier equipped in an exaggerated interstellar sci-fi gear, throwing him fiercely down on the ground.
It was very obvious… this restriction of technological types has a terrible effect on this Team Leader.
Similar shouts of discontent could be heard issuing out from other team camps.
Chen Xiaolian turned to look at Han Bi, only to find Han Bi wearing a strange expression. Han Bi's thick brush like eyebrows were tightly screwed together.
"What is going on? Is there a problem?" Chen Xiaolian went up by himself.
"Hmph, don't talk to me," Han Bi turned his head away.
"I am sorry," Chen Xiaolian quickly said. "It is my fault for hiding some stuff from you. But… I have my own difficulties. I do not know how to explain it to you, but… for now, we can only depend on each other."
"… would I still dare to trust you?" Han Bi hesitated.
"If I am still lying to you, then when you return you can just go to my novel review section to curse me. After that, just expose that I am actually not a thirty-year-old fatty but an immature smelly brat, how about that?"
"Pei!" Han Bi finally could not hold it in anymore and his mouth began forming traces of a smile. He then sighed. "Forget it, you were right about one thing. Under such circumstances, we could only rely on one another."
He turned to Chen Xiaolian. "The King Solomon's 72 Demons … what does it mean, do you know? I have only heard of King Solomon, but am unaware of the rest."
Chen Xiaolian was in the midst of being worried about how to ease up the tension between the two of them. Once he heard Han Bi seeking his help, he immediately replied without any reservation. "I really do know about it. Last year, while I was writing a novel, I had checked out some foreign myths and legends. I had wanted to check on some related settings. It just so happened that I had looked up on the related materials for this King Solomon's 72 Demons."
"Oh? Do tell."
Chen Xiaolian pondered. "You know of King Solomon, right?"
"I have heard of the name, but I do not know what is it he did."
"…" Chen Xiaolian thought on. "Very well, I won't describe it in too much detail. All you need to know is that King Solomon is a Western Jewish legend, the most powerful king. Legend has it that he was a very powerful master of magic, and possesses a very powerful magic ring. Using his all-powerful magic ring, he subjugated 72 highly capable demons who fell under his control. These 72 demons each have their own mystical skills, each with their own overwhelming legend."
"Why does it seem to resemble the Lord of The Rings?"
"En, there are some similarities," Chen Xiaolian laughed. "The Lord of The Rings author, JRR Tolkien had indeed referred to many of the legends and myths of King Solomon."
Seeing the silent Han Bi, Chen Xiaolian chose to not hold back and spoke out the thoughts and speculations within his mind:
"This instance dungeon is called 'King Solomon's 72 Demons Series and the final quest is the retrieval of a 'Demon Pillar Fragment'. Legend has it that these Demon Pillars were used to seal the demons. If I have to guess, this item is probably similar to stone columns. Note the words 'series' and 'fragment'. These two words signify that not all of the 72 demons would appear here. Likely, it would only be one of the 72.
As for the defenders, they should be the ones who watch over and protect the BOSS."
Han Bi nodded his head. "There is the prompt stating something about it being B Class Resource Type Instance Dungeon. I am unclear about the Class, but the meaning of Resource Type should be literal…"
"Indeed! If I am not mistaken, the '72 Demon Pillar Fragment' also acts as this instance dungeon's 'first prize'. Besides that though, there should also be many other resources and good items that can be attained from this instance dungeon – if there is only one first prize in an instance dungeon, then there would not have been so many teams running over to participate.
Thus, in addition to the biggest reward, there must also be many valuable commemoration reward, participation reward. That is why so many teams would choose to participate."
Hearing all that, Han Bi nodded his head and looked at Chen Xiaolian. "Is there anything else you are not telling me?"
"… yes," Chen Xiaolian hesitated for a moment and decided to tell the truth. "However, due to the fact that I have yet to figure out what the problem is… I am sorry, I am temporarily unable to tell you."
"… I will grudgingly accept this explanation," Han Bi smiled bitterly. "All is good as long as you can admit it. At least this shows your sincerity. If you cannot even admit, then I will not cooperate with you anymore. Even if the both of us are unauthorized entrants."
"In that case… cooperation?" Chen Xiaolian stared at Han Bi's eyes.
"…cooperation!" Han Bi directed a heavy look at Chen Xiaolian.
At this moment, Newton's commanding voice sounded out. "The instance dungeon's door has opened! Prepare to enter!"
At an unknown moment, a cavern hole had appeared on the walls under the tallest peak situated at the side of the valley. It was as though the stone there had oddly 'dissolved' away, revealing a hole of stone that resembled a city gate.
Above the cavern hole was a layer of green screen.
"Move move move! Move in!"
The teams gathered at the entrance of the stone cave. There was no occurrence of fights as they orderly entered the cave.
Newton himself was standing before the entrance towards the stone cave while the other members of the Wind Slasher Guild entered the stone cave under his watch.
Chen Xiaolian realized that whenever someone entered the stone cave, they will need to pass through the layer of green screen. The surface of the green screen will produce a layer of light that would quickly scan the person below it from top to bottom.
The only exception was when Sara was bringing Takashimoto Shizuka and Soo Soo in.
As the two females were made to move through the screen of light, the screen suddenly changed its colour into that of yellowish orange.
It seemed to be a recognition of identity?
The difference in colour is the difference in identity between 'player' and 'NPC'?
As the time came for Chen Xiaolian to enter, his heart became anxious. He could even hear the racing sound of his beating heart.
Newton stood to the side, seemingly narrowing his eyes as he looked at Chen Xiaolian.
Chen Xiaolian braced himself and moved forward…
Thankfully, after the green light had scanned through his entire body – the screen remained green, not showing any change at all.
Chen Xiaolian gave a sigh of relief. As for Newton who was standing off to the side, his gaze eased up and he casually looked away.
The interior of the cave was simply astonishing.
It appeared as though the mountain itself had been hollowed out as there were traces indicating that the walls within the stone cave were cut. The ground below their feet was level. Moving forward, they found that a flight of stairs leading downwards had been prepared.
However, all of it was clearly reeking of a stench of decay and staleness.
A member of the Wind Slasher Guild started drawing patterns that appeared similar to flame totems. Chen Xiaolian did not know this person's name, only that he had his face smeared with a great deal of paint.
The Pattern Man stood inside the cave. Every member of the Wind Slasher Team who walked pass him would receive a bottle of something from him.
When Chen Xiaolian and Han Bi accepted the item, Pattern Man recognized that they were newbies and indifferently spoke out a sentence. "Secretion from Firefly Frog, take it! You will be using it later."
There were 10 members within the Wind Slasher Team. For the newbie group, there were 5, including Chen Xiaolian.
As for the veteran members, there was the Team Leader Newton, Sara, Damon, Du Ya, Pattern Man – It was then that Chen Xiaolian suddenly realized that among the veteran members of the Wind Slasher Guild, Sara was the only female.
This was very different compared to the other teams. In the other teams, the ratio between males and females was not that big.
To Chen Xiaolian's surprise, he noticed that as Sara was retrieving the bottle of Firefly Frog secretion from Pattern Man's hands, she had thrown him a charming glance. With a face filled with a flirtatious smile, she extended her hand out to pinch the robust arms of Pattern Man…
This woman. Why does it look as though she has a relationship going on with every male member of the team?
Seemingly aware of Chen Xiaolian's suspicions, Han Bi moved close beside him and chuckled in a low tone. "That Sara is not a simple person. She fawns left and right within this guild, skilfully currying favours with her assets, she must certainly be a top grade socialite."
Chen Xiaolian recalled how abnormal this woman was when she was dealing with Takashimoto Shizuka and the remarks of how she would like to put Soo Soo in a cage as a pet…
He gave a light sigh and muttered a phrase.
Han Bi asked. "What is it that you were muttering to yourself?"
"A veteran whore can row the boat without paddles…" [1]
"Eh? What does that mean? What will she use then?"
"The waves of course."
"…" Han Bi rolled his eyes. "You really are a writer!"
1. The phrase is '老婊子划船不用桨啊' it could also mean a beauty can row a boat without paddles, the waves will do it for her. The waves here indicate her sensuality and beauty.

GOR Chapter 16: Xiaolian's Discovery
They went deeper down the caves.
After walking for around a few hundred metres, a vast expanse suddenly appeared before them.
Everyone entered this wide-open space.
This wide-open space is about as big as a school field. Although there were around a hundred people entering into this place, it did not feel crowded at all.
Many people produced illumination devices, many of which were of the sci-fi type of tactical flashlight. There were also items that could light up by itself, akin to magic wands. Others began starting a fire by themselves.
In just a moment's time, the wide-open space became as bright as day thanks to the illumination.
Everyone stopped here, because…
This wide-open space has several passages.
Every team members stopped moving here. After which, no small number of them turned to look towards Newton.
Newton sneered and shouted loudly. "What are you looking at me for? I am only a Navigational Staff. From the moment the plane landed, my task has been completed. As for how to complete the quest, do you expect me to help? Now that you are here, you are on your own!"
The other team members all dispersed. Many of them spread out as they carefully searched around the wide-open space, trying to find anything that could serve as clues.
Chen Xiaolian saw that the Wind Slasher Guild did not show any intention of restricting him from taking actions on his own; he went towards Han Bi. He pulled Han Bi together and went around to make their own observation.
After looking around for a while, Chen Xiaolian stole a glance at his surroundings to ensure that there was a big distance between him and those from the Wind Slasher Guild… and others. He then tugged Han Bi.
"I need to ask you something."
"En?"
"About this instance dungeon, King Solomon's 72 Demons," Chen Xiaolian carefully selected his words and slowly asked. "The name of this instance dungeon, did you just find out about it from the announcement earlier, or… have you known about it a long time ago?"
"Naturally, I knew about it a long time ago," Han Bi frowned. "After using the steel ball, I already knew about the name of this instance dungeon. However, as we were leaving the aircraft, I heard them discussing something about the King Solomon's 72 Demons. It seemed as though they had already made preparations before coming here. They had already known what this instance dungeon is a long time ago."
"All right, I understand."
A foundation was formed within Chen Xiaolian's mind. He nodded and maintained his silence.
"What did you find?" Han Bi looked at Chen Xiaolian who was wearing a calm expression.
"There is one more factor that I need to examine."
As the time began ticking away, some teams had rapidly made a choice of entering one of the passages and moved out by themselves.
As the other teams left one after another, the number of people within the wide-open space gradually declined.
The members of the Wind Slasher Guild then grouped together.
"Did anyone find anything?" Newton played the role of a Team Leader effectively. "Everyone speak out, we will discuss it for a moment. With so many passages, I believe that choosing the correct one would be the only way to complete the quest."
"Why don't we divide our forces?" Du Ya spoke out.
Newton's expression turned heavy and he coldly replied. "Divide our forces? We only have a total of 10 members. If we are to spread our forces, what are we to do if we need to compete with the other teams to snatch the treasure? Divided we fall. When the time comes, how are we to fight back?"
Du Ya became disappointed and stayed silent after giving a "heng".
Chen Xiaolian secretly glanced at him. He had originally lumped Du Ya into the ranks of idiots with disdain. However, he suddenly had another train of thought. For such a simple-minded person to be able to garner a spot in this team, this Du Ya must have a certain specialty somewhere!
En, as of now, he was akin to a sheep amidst a pack of wolves. Everything must be done with caution. He could not afford to be careless or turn a blind eye to anything!
"Let us discus about what we discovered," Seeing nobody speak up, Newton become slightly dissatisfied. "Before we came, we have already known that this time's quest is the 72 Demons Pillar Series Instance Dungeon. Could it be that none of you made any preparations? Everyone should have understood the background story of the quest, right?"
Observing the increasing dissatisfaction on Newton's eyes, Damon coughed out and spoke. "Newton, before this, Sara and I had just followed the Guild Leader to participate in another Instance Dungeon Quest. You knew just how narrow of an escape we had. After we returned from that instance, we did not even have the time to rest. Instead, we hastily accepted this Instance Dungeon. How were we supposed to find time to make preparations… Besides, isn't this just a B Class Instance Dungeon? We have completed no small amount of Instance Dungeons of a higher class. Also, amongst all the Instance Dungeon types, Resource Type Instance Dungeons are widely acknowledged as having the least amount of danger, so…"
"So you all became negligent?" Newton's face turned grim.
"Come on, Newton. To begin with, our members for this Instance Dungeon were assembled on the spur of the moment," The Pattern Man tried to ease the atmosphere. "In addition, this Instance Dungeon is also not the guild's most important target. Let us not stress out too much…"
"Why don't we just pick a random passage?" Sara had produced a dagger from who knows where and was trimming her nails at the side. She said in a languid manner. "In the end, if the Quest Reward Fragment is acquired by some other team, we can just snatch it over. Even though we are not allowed to kill… we could always leave them alive. This Instance Dungeon's class is not that high and the ones participating are just a group of trash. Which of them could be our match?"
"…" Newton did not say anything. Judging from the circumstances, he is not the number one leader in the Wind Slasher Guild and only a temporary Team Leader for this team. It would be unwise for him to keep reprimanding.
Being unable to vent out his anger, he could only turn around to look at the few people in the newbie group.
After a moment of silence…
"How about… I say a few words?"
Chen Xiaolian slowly spoke out in a calm voice.
In an instant, everyone from the Wind Slasher Guild turned their gazes onto his figure. This was especially so for Han Bi who was right beside him, his face revealing his exceptional surprise.
"Oh?" Damon looked at Chen Xiaolian and sneered. "You? What do you have to say?"
As though he had not heard the other party's words of mockery, Chen Xiaolian slowly continued. "Did everyone realize, this underground wide-open space actually has an equilateral six sided shape? I have walked around earlier and found that each side has a length of roughly fifty steps, the minor differences could be ignored."
"En, what about it?" Damon asked.
"Let him continue!" Newton frowned as he declared, giving Damon a stare.
"Ahem," Chen Xiaolian cleared his throat. "As everyone can see, it has an equilateral six sided shape. Every side has a passageway. In total there are six passageways… if we were to observe this place from the skies, we will find that this place is a big six sided star."
This time, no one interrupted Chen Xiaolian. Newton and the other veteran team members looked around thoughtfully and confirmed that what Chen Xiaolian said was correct.
"The six sided star, also known as the hexagram. It is the iconic symbol of Judaism. And the current Instance Dungeon that we are in is 'King Solomon's 72 Demons'. Who is King Solomon? He is the legendary king of the Jews!
There are several nicknames in Judaism for the hexagram. It has been called 'Solomon's Seal' or 'Sealed Star'.
Look, are they not connected?"
"So what if it is connected?" Du Ya seemed to be showing some hostility towards Chen Xiaolian. It was probably due to Newton's earlier reprimand. Now that a newbie is talking eloquently, he felt his face falling. He sneered and asked. "Does this have anything to do with which way we should take?"
"Yes there is!" Chen Xiaolian replied with calmness and certainty!
Newton looked at him. "What is the connection?" He paused before adding. "If what you say is of value, I will give you a reward."
"Thank you Team Leader," Chen Xiaolian smiled and slowly said. "In the Jewish doctrines, there are various descriptions for the hexagram. I recall reading one which states: The six edges of the hexagram represents the six eternal existences within this world. According to some occult teachings, these six edges are given code letters of A, D, O, N, A, I. When these six letter are put together, they form the word ADONAI. In the Hebrew language, this means… God, the representation of the unity of everything in this world."
Reaching this point, Chen Xiaolian looked around at the group and saw that everyone was looking at him and listening attentively. He then continued.
"When translated, these six corners represents: Kindness, Wickedness, Love, Hate, Life, Death.
Kindness and wickedness, love and hate, life and death – these six concepts are considered to be the absolute basic and eternal of existences within this world.
Six types of concept, which forms the six-sided star.
Using the six concepts as guide, I believe that we can select the appropriate path to go."
Most of the surrounding members' faces remain confused. Only Newton appeared to be deep in thought. He then looked at Chen Xiaolian, his eyes showing traces of approval and appreciation.
"You have been talking for so long, so now… this kindness and wickedness, love and hate, life and death, six concepts, six passageways… how are we to differentiate them? I have already checked them before, none of the passageways have any markings! How are we to identify which one is Kindness, which one is Wickedness, which one is Love or Hate?" The Pattern Man asked, his question did not contain any tone of mockery, rather it was filled with objectivity.
Chen Xiaolian smiled.
At this moment, the smile on his clean and clear face looked calm and relaxed.
"Indeed, I do not know which passageway is Love or Hate, nor which is Kindness… but I know which passageway we should take!
Do not forget, what is our objective for coming here?
Demon Pillar! In most legends, demons are the symbol of Hell, death… thus, to find the Demon Pillar Seal, which passageway should we take? The answer should be self-evident, right?"
"You mean to say, by choosing the 'Death' passageway, we will be able to find the Demon Pillar Seal!" Newton's eyes lit up!
Sara frowned. "But, the problem remains… there are six passageways here, which passageway is the one that signify 'Death'? There are no hints or markings upon it."
Chen Xiaolian gave a faint smile. "Which way did we come in from then?"
It was then everyone understood!
"The passageway that took us here is also one of the passageways of the six sided star… A passageway that connects to the outside, I believe that this passageway must signify 'Life'!
Six types of concepts, Kindness and Wickedness, Love and Hate, Life and Death. It just so happens that they are located on the opposite of one another. It signifies the opposing concepts, Kindness against Wickedness, Love against Hate, Life against Death! Since we all know that the path of Life is that way, then… the path of Death…"
"The path of Death, must certainly be located in the opposite direction of the path of 'Life'!"
Everyone suddenly came to an understanding. At this instant, their gazes towards Chen Xiaolian had turned different.
Newton earnestly assessed Chen Xiaolian and nodded his head. In a deep voice, he said. "Not bad! It seems you have done well to prepare for this. In addition, you are also smart. A newbie like this is a promising one… en, if you can maintain this standard of performance later on, then once the quest is complete, I will recommend to the Guild Leader to make an exception and accept you as an official guild member."
With the exception of Han Bi, the other three newbies gazed at Chen Xiaolian, traces of envy appearing within their eyes.

GOR Chapter 17: Underground Palace
After having chosen to go down the passageway of Death, the Wind Slasher Guild no longer hesitated and began moving out.
At the very moment, some of the other players who were still around saw the choice made by the Wind Slasher Guild. They too decided to follow along. As for the Wind Slasher Guild, they paid those followers no heed. Damon, coldly smiled. "Heng, that is not a bad thing. We have more fodder to use. When the time comes, we can use them to open up a path."
As they moved onwards along the 'passageway of Death', the air around became increasingly suffocating. The appearance of the passageway remained the same, resembling the works of human hands.
Suddenly, the tactical flashlight in the hands of Newton who was walking at the very front went out.
"Damn it, it seems that the deeper we go, the higher the restriction placed onto equipment of the technological type," Newton turned around and gave the other team members a glance, shouting. "Turn off the flashlights… do not use illumination equipment of the magical type. Who knows when we may have to fight, so don't waste your strength. Use the Firefly Frogs."
Everyone quickly moved to the east and smeared the Firefly Frog secretions onto the surface of their equipment. It was not long before each of them turned into something akin to humanoid fireflies. Within this pitch-black passageway, they were particularly eye-catching. In addition, they also lit up the passageway.
Han Bi secretly observed Chen Xiaolian's actions and found that while Chen Xiaolian did smear the Firefly Frog secretions onto his protective suit… he had done so with caution. None of them came in contact with his sleeves or his clothes!
Han Bi realized something and followed suit. Chen Xiaolian watched Han Bi's actions and gave him a wink when no one was watching. Both of them exchanged a look.
"Xiao Lian (face)!"
Newton suddenly shouted out for Chen Xiaolian. Chen Xiaolian thus moved to Newton's side.
Newton looked at him and suddenly stuffed an item into Chen Xiaolian's hand.
"As I have said earlier, if what you spoke of is of worth, then I will reward you. As a Team Leader, I meant what I said. I saw that the weapon that you are using is still the light sabre from the Beginner's Package; the damage of that item is too low. This weapon was acquired from somewhere else and I cannot use it. But, for a newbie like you it will be very useful. I will gift this to you as a reward."
Chen Xiaolian lowered his head to inspect the item. In his hand was a compact looking short sword – it is shaped like a Western styled cross-shaped holy sword. However, it is too small to the point where one could just wear it across the neck as a chain…
Upon the sword is a very, very small purple coloured gem.
Seeing the pale purple gem, the few newbies at the side seemingly had their eyes bulged out. Even Damon who wields the gigantic door like sword had subconsciously looked at it again another two times. He frowned.
"First bind it with your Personal System. When you are not using it, you can place it in the Item Box or wear it on your body as an accessory. When in battle, place it in your hand and grip it tightly; it will transform into its War Form. Remember, in War Form it becomes very sharp and provides bonus power. However, there is a limit to the amount of time that it can be used as it will drain your Endurance. Once your Endurance is exhausted, it will return to this current state."
"…Thank you," Chen Xiaolian himself was uncertain how he was feeling at the moment and had subconsciously uttered those words.
"All right, as for the others…" Newton gave a "heng" as he looked at the other newbies. "I am someone who knows how to differentiate between the time to reward and punish. Whoever you are, if you contribute to the team, I will reward you! Now, keep moving forward! Xiaolian, you follow beside me!"
Chen Xiaolian could not refuse and could only follow beside Newton as he walked in the vanguard position.
"It seems that Newton really values this kid," Du Ya moved beside Sara and sneered in a low tone.
"It has been a long time since he saw a newbie with potential. This Xiaolian (face) is a silent one, but he is somewhat intelligent," Sara closed her mouth and smiled tenderly. "Seeing someone who has potential, it is only natural that we recruit him. I am quite fond of him myself, only I wonder… how will he taste like."
Du Ya gave Sara a glance, his heart secretly cursing *. He then moved to the side and slapped heavily onto Takashimoto Shizuka's buttocks, laughing as he shouted. "Faster, babe! Do not dawdle!"
Chen Xiaolian who was at the front heard Seidaikono Shizuka's sobbing sounds, but fought the urge to look back.
Finally, the passageway seemingly came to an end and a circular shaped cavern door appeared before them.
Entering through it, everyone found that they were in another wide-open space!
This time around, the wide-open space seemed to be a huge underground palace. Looking upward, they found that the length between the stone ceiling and the ground was several tens of metres! Looking around, this wide-open space that was as big as a football stadium was dark and empty!
It was only at the very distant end that one could spot something resembling a door. Behind the door was a glimmering light – this made it particularly striking amidst the darkness.
Everywhere within this large hall area was densely covered with pillars.
Judging by its appearance, these pillars had been around for years. As for its location, there was no pattern to its placement, seemingly having one in the east and another in the west. There was no symmetry in them. In addition, some were intact while others had already deteriorated away and were partially collapsed.
Chen Xiaolian sniffed about with his nose and felt that the air here was filled with an indescribable odour of decay that caused him to become uncomfortable.
"There is something wrong here! Everyone be careful!"
Under Newton's directive, the Wind Slasher Guild slowed down their movement speed.
The other players who were lazing about at the back also gradually caught up to them.
There were also others who were of greater courage. These people tried moving before the Wind Slasher Guild from the side. Seeing that the Wind Slasher Guild did not attempt to obstruct them, they quickened their pace.
"A bunch of fools, I love these type of idiotic voluntary scouts the most," Sara sneered.
"Du Ya!" Newton shouted. Du Ya instantly understood Newton's intention and summoned out his pet.
An entirely black-coloured crow, with a body mass equivalent to that of a small animal, claws curved like a hook and its pair of eyes bloody red in colour came to perch down on Du Ya's arm.
Du Ya nudged his arms and the crow flew off. It circled around in the air at a low altitude before moving off and disappearing amidst the dense stone pillars.
A moment later, Du Ya called out in a low voice. "Newton! There is a situation!"
It was unknown what method Du Ya had utilized, but he managed to project out his personal system's radar screen. Before the surrounding crowd, a clear three-dimensional projection appeared. Upon the computer sized radar screen, the Wind Slasher Guild was the central point with ten green dots and two yellow dots, the Japanese flight attendant and Soo Soo.
In the distance…
In their surroundings, a dense cluster of red dots appeared upon the radar screen! The red dots were so numerous it had become connected with one another to the point where the singular dots could no longer be differentiated!
"Prepare for battle!"
Newton tensed up and cried out in a low voice. Following that, the members of the team began tensing up as well.
Damon gripped onto door like gigantic sword with both hands, Sara retrieved her compound bow, nocking five arrows at the same time. As for Du Ya, he produced in each hands a… gun?
As for Pattern Man, he narrowed his eyes, both his hands gripping onto a crescent shaped scimitar each.
Amongst the group of newbies, Mediterranean produced a shield. However, the edges of the shield was obviously lined with sharp steel – who knows where this newbie managed to get his hands on this type of strange weapon.
Skinny Female and Han Bi gripped onto the same type of light sabre that Chen Xiaolian had formerly used.
What was most fascinating was the Tribal Warrior. As an European male with bear like stature… the weapon he was holding turned out to be a long and narrow katana?
"Be careful! The speed of those things are fast! Three hundred more metres! Anticipated time of contact, 20 seconds!"
Du Ya immediately announced in a loud voice.
Clearly, the crow was his War Pet. In addition, this War Pet must have been equipped with a certain ability for reconnaissance and shared vision with its owner.
At this moment, sounds of shock and misery came out from before them!
The unknown team that had ventured off before the Wind Slasher Guild had become the first to receive the incoming attacks!
The veteran members of Wind Slasher Guild instantly showed a tacit understanding of one another and formed a circular formation with their backs against one another… however, this action brought forth an unexpected result. It seemed they had subconsciously abandoned the group of newbies.
The group of newbies did not have the veterans' level of tacit understanding. After the circular formation was formed, Chen Xiaolian found that the others had ended up on the outside of the circular formation. He was the only exception.
In his case, he had been following Newton all this time. Thus, when the formation was complete, he just happen to be placed behind Newton.
Unexpectedly, Takashimoto Shizuka and Soo Soo were also there together with Chen Xiaolian.
At this moment, Du Ya seemingly found something through his War Pet. His face suddenly changed and he shouted out loudly. "Be careful! The monsters are Demon Soldiers! Lots and lots of them!"
Du Ya shared out a three-dimensional projection, this was clearly his pet crow's field of vision.
Upon the screen, groups of monsters with short stature, wearing tattered armour and holding onto various types of weapons swarmed forward. Tusks protruded from each of their faces, painting a terrifying and violent image of beasts. Their movements were violent and agile, jumping even as they ran. With an apelike manner, they would jump back and forth upon the pillars within the hall!
The most critical part was that… upon the screen, their numbers… were simply outrageously high!

GOR Chapter 18: Complete Extermination of Newbies
The vanguard team of players could be seen putting on a posture of opposition, only to be immediately engulfed by the sea of Demon Soldiers! The battle was joined!
Of the players, the tallest one was brandishing dual swords, their sharp edges flashing with wanton abandon, filled with might and momentum. He brought up the vanguard, and cleaved apart several Demon Soldiers with his swords in just a few moments. These monsters' bodies were not very resilient. After being cleaved apart, a viscous green coloured liquid sprayed out while their bodies, limbs, flesh and even internal organs flew about in every which way!
Chen Xiaolian who was suddenly faced with this sight nearly puked out blood!
As for the two females, the Japanese flight attendant and Soo Soo, a momentary glance rendered them unconscious.
The dual wielding player was clearly the one taking up the heaviest burden for the team, resembling a great resilient dam standing at the front. At this time however, some Demon Soldiers would occasionally jump over from the top.
In that instant, a wand-holding player suddenly slammed the wand down onto the ground!
In a flash, a mass of silver coloured flames burst forth! Tens of Demon Soldiers were caught by the silver-coloured flames; they immediately screamed out in misery! Caught amidst the whitish flames, they were transformed into ashes!
Another player, with a thin and small frame lost his weapon after hacking down roughly four Demon Soldiers. A Demon Soldier that was lying on the ground then viciously stabbed through his thigh. The player screamed out in pain and suddenly transformed! His originally thin and small body suddenly transformed into a big raging bear with a height of several metres!
Its body was still equipped with metal armour!
This violent bear warrior suddenly became a target, attracting the Demon Soldiers towards him. Countless Demon Soldiers howled as they charged at him, seven or eight Demon Soldiers were piled onto his massive frame. However, the bear's strength was amazing, it caught one of the Demon Soldiers with its paws. Then, with a pull, it tore the Demon Soldier in half, causing its broken limbs and internal organs to burst out!
The power behind those paws was even more terrifying, capable of killing off around eight of those Demon Soldiers with just a few swipes. Soon however, the Demon Soldiers numbers began showing its effect as the number of Demon Soldiers on the bear's body increased. They held onto short knives and stabbed into the cracks between his armour! The screams from the bear warrior turned increasingly miserable…
It was not long before even more Demon Soldiers appeared, enveloping the entire team…
"They will not be able to hold," Newton coldly said. "They are just a disorderly mob."
"Damn it! This is clearly a B Class Resource Instance Dungeon, one with the least amount of danger! How could these formidable Demon Soldiers appear here?" Sara muttered angrily.
"Don't talk nonsense… something is not right! Careful up top!" As he was talking, Newton's face suddenly changed greatly!
At this moment, a mass of viscous liquid suddenly dropped down from above them. It dropped directly onto the Korean loli, Soo Soo's body. The mass of viscous liquid was green in colour, resembling snot.
Soo Soo had originally lost consciousness. However, she woke up the instant the liquid came in contact with her body. Opening her eyes, she looked upwards and saw a monster with slender body situated two metres away!
This monster has the same looking head as the Demon Soldiers. However, both its palms were gripping deep into the pillar. Its body was bent in a peculiar manner, akin to a lizard… a long tongue extended out… reaching down at them!
"Son of a bitch! A Stealth Hound Demon!" Newton cursed loudly and the circular formation was immediately dispersed.
Soo Soo stared with wide-open eyes at the long red tongue heading towards her. In that moment, she forgot to cry…
During this time, the one standing closest to her was only Chen Xiaolian!
Chen Xiaolian cursed inwardly. There was no time to consider anything at a time like this; he charged forward, clasping onto Soo Soo. After that, the both of them rolled onto the ground like a ball!
Before he could get up, he felt his foot being gripped. A red tongue had rolled itself onto his ankle.
What followed was an enormous yanking force, seemingly aimed at pulling him up!
Chen Xiaolian's body flew up into the air. Suddenly, he gripped onto the cross-shaped holy sword given by Newton. The cross-shaped holy sword expanded, over one metre in length, its sharp edges swept out. A mass of blood sprayed out from the tongue that was cut off by the sharp sword
Chen Xiaolian fell heavily onto the ground. He could feel his forehead smashing heavily down the hard ground! In an instant, blood flowed down his eyes and face!
At the same time, the Stealth Hound Demon quickly climbed down the pillar, retracting its tongue while doing so. However, its sharp mouth sprayed out blood, directed at Chen Xiaolian!
"Kill it!"
Newton roared!
A gigantic door like sword obstructed the Hound Demon, its sharp edge hurtling horizontally towards the demon, slashing towards its head. Damon struck out without hesitation!
The Hound Demon's body was incredibly flexible. It twisted a little and slithered back to the top of the pillar, rapidly moving away, jumping towards another pillar. It moved far away, retreating…
This monster clearly possesses a high level of intellect. Once its attack failed, it immediately pulled back.
"Do not bother with it! Deal with the Demon Soldiers first! They are here!"
Du Ya shouted out.
Du Ya had one knee on the ground, the guns equipped in both his hands had begun firing. Each time he fired, he would take aim with the other gun, taking turns to aim with each.
Bang! Bang! The two guns continuously fired out. Amongst the demons soldiers that ran forward into their field of vision, two of them screamed out as they fell over.
The guns could not be fired in succession, but Du Ya's performance at this moment was an eye-opener for Chen Xiaolian!
The metal bracers on this guy's wrist was actually arranged with grooves, each filled with bullets. As he fired a shot, one hand was replenishing ammo, both hands rotating… his actions done in cohesion, simply astonishing! The guns could clearly only fire out one bullet, but in his hands, it became capable of consecutive shots!
At this moment, a sharp scream came from above! A Demon Soldier that had jumped over using the pillars suddenly shouted loudly and jumped over through the air even though there were still tens of metres between them…
Soo!
A sharp arrow penetrated through its body, causing it to burst into a bloody green flower in the middle of the air!
Sara pursed her mouth, her body maintaining the same posture of nocking arrows. Her hand movements were fast and the five arrows that were within her hands were all shot out in succession! The arrows were not shot in vain; for each arrow released, a Demon Soldier that was jumping along the pillars would fall!
But what had surprised Chen Xiaolian was the arrow quiver hanging from Sara's thigh. It had originally carried only tens of arrows. However, every time that Sara pulled out five arrows with her hand… the arrows within the quiver would seemingly refill itself!
Newton's abilities were also revealed. As expected, his ability is of the technological type.
Chen Xiaolian watched as Newton quickly summoned a row of metal shields before the team. The shields' design screamed out technology, forming a wall of shield! Above it was a notch that would allow projectiles to shoot out.
The Demon Soldiers charging at the front slammed into the shield wall and were immediately a washed with a high amount of blue electrical current and repelled. By the time they fell onto the ground, they were already burnt to crisp!
The shape of the shield wall was not flat, but rather a three dimensional circle. It was exactly enough for the veteran members of Wind Slasher Guild to fit inside, like a bunker.
Observing that some of the Demon Soldiers were getting close, the military like bunker produced several miniature types of gun barrels. Following the sounds of "tutututu", the gun barrel poured out flames and bullets at the sea of Demon Soldiers!
The Demon Soldiers at the front were lifted off their feet by the impact of the barrage, while others had their bodies torn apart!
Witnessing all this caused Chen Xiaolian to be greatly shocked!
This ability is simply a fortress!
A war fortress!
It is simply the perfect skill to clear off weak mobs!
Of the closest incoming Demon Soldiers, practically several sides had its aggression flattened directly!
However, the face of Newton, who was standing on one side, was turning increasingly ugly!
"This won't do! This place restricts the power of technological type skills! The level of consumption of my 'War Fortress' is at least five times higher than normal! Its power has also been reduced by half!"
"Damon, Du Ya, you guys deal with the ground forces! I will take care of the top!" Sara's hands moved without stopping as her mouth called out quickly.
The Pattern Man had also begun taking action.
Although Sara was continuously releasing arrows at an extreme level of speed, the Demon Soldiers jumping down from the top was increasing in number. In the end, they were not something that a mere archer can block off.
Occasionally, a few of the Demon Soldiers would slip past and jump into the War Fortress. Pattern Man would then act to shut down this threat. Moving quickly, he struck down those monsters who managed to charge in through their defences.
The scimitars in Pattern Man's hands were very sharp and he was very skilled in using both scimitars. With his amazing sword skills, every time his scimitars crossed paths, a Demon Soldier would be instantly cut into two!
As the veteran members of the Wind Slasher Guild fought on, the more adept they became at coordinating their skills. Soon, they suppressed the Demon Soldiers assault!
"Hahaha!" Sara laughed out in a low voice. "I love this type of scenery! Each Demon Soldier is worth one point! Kill more, let's earn more here!"
"Stop joking around! My War Fortress cannot hold on for too long. We have to think of a way to get out of here as soon as possible!"
Newton gritted his teeth.
As the veterans were in the middle of chatting…
The group of newbies who were abandoned on the outside were suffering from a huge disaster!
The group of newbies were hiding behind the War Fortress. However, a growing number of Demon Soldiers saw that they were unable to break through the War Fortress and instead moved to execute a pincer attack.
There was no cohesion between the newbies and they were thus thrown into a bitter battle!
The most unfortunate of them was Mediterranean. He brandished the huge shield in his hand, which acted like a huge windmill as the sharp edges of the shield rotated about. Any Demon Soldier that got too close was shredded to pieces!
Green flesh and organs sprayed all over the ground! Eventually, the ground turned slippery.
Then, Mediterranean seemingly lost his temper and begun bellowing curses continuously as he wielded the shield.
It was at this moment when he was unprepared that the Stealth Hound Demon that had escaped earlier suddenly approached in silence without them realizing. It suddenly fell from the skies and slammed down onto the very centre of the shield! The forceful impact threw Mediterranean down onto the ground! He cried out miserably but was unable to even react before a bloody mouth bit down onto his head! In an instant, half his head was bitten off!
Brain matter, flesh, blood and a damaged eyeball fell out!
Skinny Woman and Han Bi had at some unknown time moved to stand back to back, the light sabres in their hands desperately resisting the Demon Soldiers attacks.
However, the damage of the light sabre was truly inadequate. The seemingly damaged weapons wielded by the Demon Soldiers required two to three attacks from the light sabre to cut through!
As a result, for the both of them, killing a Demon Soldier would require at least three to four moves each. This rate of efficiency is extremely low! But, more Demon Soldiers would charge forward. Suddenly, they were left with only enough space to parry. The Skinny Woman suffered from a slash and was no longer able to move her arm.
With the memories of the other party as his guiding schoolteacher for this trip, Han Bi could not help but want to help her. He attempted to pull her over to his back. Suddenly, the Skinny Woman screamed out miserably, her body faltered and she fell to the ground!
On the ground lied a Demon Soldier who had its legs cut. It viciously laughed in a sharp tone, its claws latching onto the Skinny Woman's pair of legs. It then pulled her, quickly pulling her away from Han Bi's area of reach before charging upon her ruthlessly.
Skinny Woman only had enough time to push away one before six Demon Soldiers instantly charged onto her! A miserable shriek rang out and torn limbs were then strewn all over the place…
The pressure on Han Bi increased!
The Tribal Warrior newbie turned out to have quite the character. The long and narrow katana in his hands was flying up and down through the air, his skill with the katana surprisingly proficient. In just a moment, both his front and back were littered with around eight Demon Soldiers, their bodies sliced apart.
The Tribal Warrior heard the Skinny Woman's scream and turned his head to see Han Bi fighting alone. He quickly rushed over, with a slash he cleaved apart a Demon Soldier who was already upon Han Bi's back. He then grabbed Han Bi and threw him upwards with all his might. His one throw had tossed Han Bi directly into the confines of the War Fortress!
After that, he bent his knees, squatted and fiercely jumped into the air! His body soared through the skies!
It was obvious that his aim was the inner confines of the War Fortress as well…
Halfway though, a thin shadow suddenly slithered over! It directed a bite at Tribal Warrior's shoulder in the middle of the air!
This man whose body was as robust as a bear uttered a painful roar!
The Stealth Hound Demon had struck again!
Tribal Warrior fell heavily onto the ground far away and a group of Demon Soldiers swarmed towards him. Soon, his figure was submerged…
As of now, with the exception of the two unauthorized entrants, the Wind Slasher Guild's group of newbies have been completely exterminated!

GOR Chapter 19: Xiaolian's Brilliance
Han Bi personally witnessed the Tribal Warrior, who had helped him, end up in the grip of the Stealth Hound Demon. When the Tribal Warrior fell to the ground, he could not help but cry out, a complicated look etched on his face!
At this time, Chen Xiaolian had already put Soo Soo aside. Due to the fall earlier though, his head was bleeding and half his face was covered with blood.
"Han Bi!" Chen Xiaolian shouted out loud. "Are you all right?"
"I can still move," Han Bi gritted his teeth and looked at Chen Xiaolian's bloodied face, his own face looking somewhat dazed.
"Be careful!"
Chen Xiaolian suddenly rushed over, pressing Han Bi's head down!
A damaged sword flew over his head. It turned out that the Demon Soldiers outside the enclosure had observed that they were unable to break through, thus they launched the weapons within their hands over towards them!
"I will give you my light sabre!" Chen Xiaolian held onto Han Bi and shoved the light sabre into his hand. He gritted his teeth and whispered. "If there is an opportunity, run! Remember to not head back!"
"…What? Forward still?"
Chen Xiaolian did not have any time to explain.
Because at this moment, he could hear Newton's voice.
"I cannot hold on anymore, retreat! Retreat using the same path back!"
Newton continued. "Damon, make a path! I will guard the rear! The others stay in the middle; Sara and Du Ya take care of the skies! Let's go!"
He had Damon take the responsibility of opening a path, while he took the most dangerous rear-guard position – from this, it could be observed that Newton was a qualified Team Leader.
However, his following words caused Chen Xiaolian to become worried.
"Toss those 2 NPCs to the back to attract the Demon Soldiers attention! We can gain at least a few seconds! Hurry!"
Chen Xiaolian did not have any time to think, he only blurted out. "No!"
"Idiot! What did you say?"
Pattern Man kicked Chen Xiaolian to the ground, the cold edges of his scimitar rested atop Chen Xiaolian's neck. Pattern Man brutally lashed out. "Do not think that being a little bit smart allows you to disregard the rules!"
Newton stared at Chen Xiaolian, he too violently snapped. "Just what is wrong with you? Xiaolian! Back then, for the sake of saving a NPC, you end up crashing on your head! Now you cannot even turn them to bait!"
Within Newton's gaze, sparks of suspicions could clearly be seen.
Chen Xiaolian did not bother explaining, he quickly shouted aloud. "I have a method to deal with these Demon Soldiers! We do not need baits! In addition, we cannot retreat! We can only go forward!"
"Ignore him, he is lying!"
Damon cleaved a Demon Soldier that had jumped in and slammed his foot down its head, pulverizing it to pieces. He glared at Chen Xiaolian. "There is a problem with this kid!"
Chen Xiaolian simply stared at Newton. "Trust me!"
Newton forcefully gritted his teeth. "Ten seconds! If you cannot spit it out, then I will kill you on the spot!"
"You must have explosive type items! Look at the locations of the surrounding pillars!" Chen Xiaolian only used those two sentences to convince Newton!
Others may not be able to understand instantly, but Newton could. Because Chen Xiaolian had already confirmed that Newton's abilities, or perhaps it would be more accurate to say that his fighting abilities are those that follow the path of technology. To be even more precise, it is of the military technology type.
At the very least, this man's military accomplishment must certainly be superior when compared to the other team members.
The pillars within this great hall are everywhere. In addition, their locations appeared to be irregular, even messy. However, someone with exceptional military qualities would still be able to pinpoint the points of support and the points of failure.
In other words, by blowing up certain pillars, it would be possible to destroy the point of supports, leading to a collapse!
Due to the restriction on technology type skills and weapons, when faced against the attacks of the flood like number of Demon Soldiers, cold weapons had to be used. However, cold weapons are lacking in efficiency when 'clearing mobs'.
Under such circumstances, the choice of creating explosions in the main hall to cause a collapse may bring about the biggest amount of damage to the Demon Soldiers.
Moreover, when the hall collapses, not only would it kill the Demon Soldiers, it could also effectively create obstacles and slow down the movements of the other Demon Soldiers.
As for why Chen Xiaolian had proposed to "move forward, we cannot retreat", even if others were unable to understand, Newton had reacted instantly.
Considering the Wind Slasher Guild's current location, if a straight line was to be drawn between the entrance and exit position for the great hall, they would find that they have already crossed two thirds the length of this line.
That is to say, the distance between them and the exit was closer! If they were to retreat towards the entrance, the distance that they needed to travel was longer.
… In just an instant, he thought of a method to contain the Demon Soldiers. In addition, he also accurately determined the topography and locations. And this ability to make such a courageous plan to move onwards…
Such a state of mind, intellect and ability to respond…
Newton stared at Chen Xiaolian with a very complicated expression.
"Follow his plans!"
Newton made his decision, the other team members instantly turned to look at Chen Xiaolian with an expression of surprise.
"Several points needed to be blown up… I alone would not suffice," Newton coldly looked at Chen Xiaolian.
"It is my suggestion, it is only natural that I will participate," Chen Xiaolian took a deep breath, his face solemn.
Newton then revealed a trace of surprise in his face. "It is very dangerous; there is a probability of death. We will not be able to protect you."
Chen Xiaolian maintained the same expression and nodded.
"…" Newton gritted his teeth. "Sara! Du Ya! I need 30 seconds!"
Sara bit her lips. "Very well! I will trust you this once, Newton."
Du Ya did not say anything and only grunted.
The two of them immediately reassumed their battle positions, Sara used her bow and arrows to clear the Demon Soldiers jumping towards them from the air while Du Ya's guns begun to rang out once again.
Newton raised his head, quickly assessing the surrounding location of the pillars before making the calculations within his mind.
"Four points of explosion, no less," Newton calculated at an extremely rapid rate. "I will take care of two points of explosion; two other people will be needed for the other two points of explosion."
"I have said it before, I will do it," Chen Xiaolian coldly replied.
"I will do it too," Pattern Man cracked a grin as he sneered at Chen Xiaolian.
"Good! The rest will be responsible for providing cover. Damon! Xiaolian's strength is the weakest, you will be responsible for protecting him as he sets up the explosives."
Damon grunted in a somewhat annoyed manner.
"The others get ready, 20 seconds later my War Fortress will be removed."
Newton spoke out; he quickly produced a long chain of metal ores.
"These are bombs. This place restricts technological type equipment, making it so I cannot utilize energy type bombs. These are old-fashioned chain series cluster bombs. Due to how the strength of technology have been weakened by at least half, the amount needed to be increased by one fold to achieve the desired effect."
Newton quickly assigned the tasks. "The four points of explosions are…"
He clarified each of the positions and confirmed it with them. He quickly proceeded. "On each points of explosion, tie up two chains of bombs. I have already set up the activation procedures, once it is pressed, it will explode in 10 seconds… Therefore, you must run as soon as possible after you finish binding the chain of bombs. Everyone is to run towards the exit together! Sara, Du Ya, bring the two NPCs together! I will make one last confirmation, any questions?"
No one said anything.
"Good… The removal time for the War Fortress is down to five seconds… prepare to move! Five, four, three…"
Once Newton counted down to zero, the War Fortress that had been constantly protecting them suddenly turned into a beam of green light and disappeared.
"Charge together!"
Newton roared loudly, being the first to leap forward through the air. His stalwart figure flying through the air was like an incoming storm!
The 'point of explosion' that Chen Xiaolian was assigned to was located roughly ten metres to the left of the forward direction. He placed the two chains of bombs across his neck and ran forward with all his might. Both his hands were gripping onto the cross shaped holy sword. Just as he had emerged from the circle of shelter, a Demon Soldier had appeared before him. Without any hesitation, Chen Xiaolian slashed down with his sword! The Demon Soldier's head was split open, green blood spurting onto Chen Xiaolian's face.
The nauseating feeling of stickiness nearly caused him to puke out.
However, now was not the time to worry about that. Chen Xiaolian rushed forward madly, taking big strides each. His eyes were fixed upon his target objective, the pillar. At this moment, two Demon Soldiers charged forth and were right on Chen Xiaolian's heels. Damon who was following Chen Xiaolian to provide cover lashed out. The gigantic sword slashed out repeatedly, causing two streaks of light to burst out and suddenly, the Demon Soldiers were split apart.
10 metres… 8 metres… 3 metres…
Chen Xiaolian threw himself onto the base of the pillar. He immediately removed the chain of bombs around his neck and had them placed upon the pillar. The chain of bombs possessed magnetic properties of sort and attached themselves onto the base of the pillar. Just as this process was completed, Chen Xiaolian suddenly heard a gust of wind behind him!
He subconsciously ducked his head, but felt a terrible pain searing both his shoulders!
Chen Xiaolian was directly thrown out! Turning back, he saw the Stealth Hound Demon moving towards him with wide-open mouth!
"Damon!"
Chen Xiaolian subconsciously called out for Damon who was supposed to be covering him. However, when he raised his head, he found that Damon had already run away, some tens of metres lied between them! This guy had even turned around to sneer at him – he brought up his left thumb and performed a throat slitting action!
The bastard!
Son of a bitch!
Chen Xiaolian did not have enough time think, he rolled forward on the spot. The Hound Demon charged up right behind him, its long tongue rapidly rolling out towards him… Although part of its tongue had been cut off, the remainder was still considerably long.
The sticky tongue rolled itself onto Chen Xiaolian's leg in a flash and a great force yanked him backwards. Chen Xiaolian shouted out loudly, and thrust the cross-shaped holy sword into the ground. Both his hands held on tightly onto the sword hilt as his body was suddenly pulled straight up to face the skies.
At this time, a sound rang out from the distance.
"Hold on!"
After which, a burst of intense gunfire followed. "Peng! Peng! Peng!"
Newton was rushing over. He had at an unknown time finished his own task, his entire body covered with green mucus and chunks. With one hand, he held onto a military sabre while his other held a gun [1]. As he was running towards Chen Xiaolian, he shot without stopping.
A few bullets struck the Stealth Hound Demon, but the bullets were unable to penetrate its tough skin. All it did was leave some green coloured wounds. It roared and immediately retreated, its figure quickly climbing up the pillar, hiding itself within the darkness.
"Hurry up and run!" Newton shouted, but Chen Xiaolian tumbled up and ran towards the pillar.
"Are you crazy?!"
"The detonation button had not been pressed!" Chen Xiaolian cursed out loudly.
After pressing down the detonation button, Chen Xiaolian turned around and was about to run. However, Newton had already rushed to his side. Tossing away the military sabre in his hand, he single-handedly grabbed Chen Xiaolian and placed him onto his shoulders before bolting off with big strides…
The two of them rushed out madly even as Demon Soldiers continuously charged towards them. In the distance, Sara had already turned around. This godlike archer released her mighty arrows in succession. Her arrows blasted the Demon Soldiers who were blocking the way; Newton himself was shooting madly until his gun ran out of bullets. He then fiercely smashed it towards a distant Demon Soldier.
"Time is up… hurry up and run!!"
Just as the words rang out…
Boom!!!
A loud noise reverberated out from one of the pillar that acted as a point of explosion. Orange coloured flames and intense shock waves burst out, causing the pillar to suddenly break apart before crashing down! A considerable number of Demon Soldiers that were right below it screamed as the fallen pillar fragments fell heavily down upon them!
Subsequently, the second sound of explosion… the third…
Boom boom boom…
All four points of explosions had been set off!
The massive amount of flames, smoke, rumblings and the shockwaves resulting from the explosions had seemingly transformed into an unrestrained storm!
Even though Chen Xiaolian and Newton had ran off with an insane level of speed, they were unable to escape the incoming shockwaves. Chen Xiaolian felt himself and Newton being thrown into the air by the shockwave, they were directly thrown far off towards the front!
As Newton landed, he made a roll and immediately got up. Chen Xiaolian, on the other hand, only felt a "kacha" coming off his left foot! A heart piercing pain!
He could clearly see his own left ankle twisted up at an unbelievable angle!
Just as he was screaming out miserably, Newton remained faithful to his role as a Team Leader; he grabbed onto Chen Xiaolian's hair and pulled it as he ran forward!
It was then that a thunderous sound of movement came from up above their heads, followed by the descent of countless dust from the ceiling. The entire hall was faintly trembling…
"It is going to collapse! If you do not want to get buried alive then run!" Newton roared.
Boom!
Huge blocks of stones started falling down one after another from the ceiling!
The Demon Soldiers below appeared to be shocked, they then screamed and begun fleeing in all directions. However, more of those rocks began to fall down. Chen Xiaolian who was being dragged by Newton personally witnessed an entire ceiling fragment the size of a basketball court falling down! This incident caused at least a hundred Demon Soldiers to be crushed to death!
The collapse triggered a chain reaction, leading to more pillars cracking and breaking down, eventually causing an even bigger area to collapse!
The Wind Slasher Guild members ran with wanton abandon!
Newton himself was bolting madly!
As for Chen Xiaolian… he still had his hair grabbed by Newton as he ran, dragging him along the ground…
The collapsing area spread out behind them, becoming increasingly large as the distance between them started closing up. The rocks that had fallen down from the collapsing rubble appeared to be chasing after everyone's asses…
Finally…
A dust-filled gale enveloped them. Newton then pulled up Chen Xiaolian and the both of them charged forward together… Together, they charged through the gleaming exit at the end of the hall!
Boom!!
A large rock fell down, followed by even more of them. In just an instant, the exit was blocked!
Chen Xiaolian saw a Demon Soldier that had been chasing behind him finally making it towards the exit. Unfortunately for it, the rocks came smashing down on it… after the exit was blocked off, the demon's claw could be seen extending outwards from the gaps in the rubble…

GOR Chapter 20: I Cannot Do It
Chen Xiaolian turned over his body as he lied on the ground; the intense pain on his leg caused him to be unable to stand up. He first glanced around to search for Han Bi. After seeing Han Bi standing together with Sara and Takashimoto Shizuka and Soo Soo being safely held on by Du Ya and Pattern Man respectively… he felt his heart easing up.
Han Bi directed a complicated gaze at Chen Xiaolian. He hesitated and chose not to move over.
They were in a stone chamber. Although the place was dark, there were some fragments of pearl like items affixed upon the ceiling. They emitted a faint light.
The stone chamber was not big and another stone door lied to the side.
"Everyone is still alive, right?" Newton sat on the ground, brushing off the dust on his body.
"We are all alive," Sara moved over and helped Newton up. "But it truly was dangerous. We were nearly buried alive. The kid's plan was too dangerous."
"But it was a success. The danger was caused by someone doing something they should not have done! That caused an error to occur in the timing of explosions."
Newton's face suddenly turned dark. He abruptly walked before Damon; he raised his hand and slapped Damon in the face!
Pa!
A deep and clear sound rang out!
The slap caused Damon to stumble backwards. In anger, he raised his gigantic sword.
"What, are you thinking of slashing me to death?" Newton remained immobile and simply looked at Damon coldly.
Damon's complexion turned red; he wheezed as he breathed heavily. Finally, he gritted his teeth and released the sword.
"The reason I beat you is because you disobeyed my orders. In addition, you did something you should not have done!" Newton violently lashed out. "I assigned you to provide cover for Xiaolian while he sets up the explosives. When you saw him being attacked by the Stealth Hound Demon, why did you run away? If not for me saving him, he would have no time to press the detonation button! He was able to thanks to my help! Even so, an error had occurred in the timing of explosions! The direction of the collapse spread beyond my estimation and all of us were nearly buried alive!"
After saying that, Newton suddenly delivered a kick towards Damon's stomach. The kick threw Damon aside, a mouthful of blood spraying out from his mouth.
"I need an explanation!" Newton did not simply let this matter slide.
"He is an eyesore to me; I just want to kill him," Damon forcefully wiped his mouth. "In addition, I suspect his origins! This guy could potentially be an 'Awakened!"
Awakened?
Hearing this strange term, Chen Xiaolian's mind was filled with doubts. However, it was clear that to the members of the Wind Slasher Guild, the term Awakened is not a welcomed name. In addition, the other team members too eyed Chen Xiaolian with eagle like gazes!
Newton's face turned severe, he restrained his fury. "You… do you have evidence?"
"None, so far I have only been suspecting," Damon coldly replied. "But I have reasons to be suspicious."
"State your reasons," Newton spoke in a hoarse voice.
"Back then, for the sake of saving a little girl who is a NPC he ended up getting wounded. This level of concern, is it not suspicious?" Damon sneered. "Also, his suggestion to use explosions to trigger the collapse, the idea is certainly good… however, I believe that the reason he suggested it was to stop us from using the two NPCs as bait. That is why he suggested the plan – he only wanted to protect the two NPCs."
"This is not enough to confirm it," Newton replied with indifference. "It is only your speculation."
"Hmph, Newton, you yourself should be clear on whether my words are logical or not," Damon sneered.
Beside them, Pattern Man, Sara and Du Ya had strange looks on their faces. Pattern Man slowly said. "Newton, I feel that the things Damon said are indeed suspicious. Who would let themselves get hurt to save a little girl who is a NPC?"
Newton grunted, he turned around and stared at Chen Xiaolian who was on the ground. "Xiaolian, I will give you a fair chance to defend yourself. Why did you want to save the little girl?"
"…" Chen Xiaolian thought about it, and then sighed before smiling bitterly. "If I say… it is because I am a lolicon, would you believe me?"
Naturally, no one believed those words.
"Just kill him. Since he is unable to defend himself, better to unjustly kill than to not kill. Besides, he is just a newbie," The one who spoke out was Du Ya who sneered at Chen Xiaolian.
Newton's face remained still, his expression solemn, not speaking up at all.
"Actually, there is another reason to suspect him," Damon slowly said after pondering. "From the very first time we brought him into our camp, I have had this suspicion. When Sara was introducing our team, she told him that our team is the Wind Slasher Guild. This guy did not show any reaction at all. Heng! Even though our Wind Slasher Guild is not a top-level team, we could still be considered famous. For a newbie to be able to enter Wind Slasher Guild, even if they are only the temporary members, they should show some reaction, right? However, after hearing our guild's name, he did not even bat an eyelid. Moreover… when Sara revealed that you are called Newton, this guy also remained calm, as though the name he heard was Dick or Paul. [1]
Heng! For a newbie, would these actions not cause any suspicion?"
Chen Xiaolian's mind was stunned!
He finally realized where his initial flaws were!
He ended up exposing himself after all!
Clearly, by observing the Wind Slasher Guild's actions within this instance dungeon and the attitude shown by the other players, one would be able to make a conclusion: Within their world, this Wind Slasher Guild has some amount of status and fame.
As for him… a minor newbie, to suddenly be able to join a team with such a status, his expression then was simply too indifferent.
When you are aware that a big celebrity with thunderous reputation is standing right before you, you would definitely reveal some traces of surprise.
"But… his level of strength is too poor," Sara could not resist. "Could there be such a weak Awakened?"
"Perhaps he is a newbie Awakened," Damon replied coldly. "I agree with Du Ya, better to unjustly kill than to not kill. Even if this is an unjust kill, he is but a newbie."
Newton finally opened his mouth.
He looked at his team members. "Do you all agree? Kill him?"
None of them replied. But the meaning behind this action was clearly that of a silent agreement.
"I just want to remind everyone something… earlier, Damon intentionally brought harm to him. However, he still turned back to press the detonation button! If not for that, our plan would have failed! All of us may have ended up being buried alive!"
"From this point of view, this kid could be considered our saviour."
Newton said in a slow and sombre tone.
"Newton," Sara suddenly gave a light smile. "You keep speaking out for this kid time and again… do you really value this newbie so much? But if he is an Awakened… when we return how do we explain this to the Guild Leader?"
"I have no need to explain myself to anyone," Newton scoffed.
"… or perhaps, you still have lingering emotions? We all know about how you once fell in love with an Awakened. Thus… could it be that you are still holding on to the ridiculous mind-set, which shows compassion to those Awakened folks?"
Sara's words had seemingly pierced Newton's sensitive spot.
Newton's complexion turned red, he growled like an angry leopard and rushed forward. With one hand, he gripped Sara's neck, lifting her high into the air before heavily slamming her onto the wall!
Bang!
Sara screamed sharply in pain. "You, you have gone mad! Newton!"
She moved her hands about as she struggled with all her might, but Newton's hands was as tough as steel.
At long last, Newton slowly regained his senses and loosened his grip. Sara then fell to the ground and coughed continuously.
"… I had indeed fallen in love with an Awakened! However, I had personally killed that person in the end! Remember, if someone dares mention that incident again… I will kill that someone!"
Newton ruthlessly spoke out, a murderous aura billowing off him!
He abruptly moved to Chen Xiaolian's side and looked at Chen Xiaolian in a commanding manner.
"I really do value you. You have a clever mind, reaction, courage, all of them are good! Even though your current strength is somewhat weak, strength can be enhanced while state of mind cannot. Because of that, I think highly of you. I had even decided, after this quest is complete, I will definitely recruit you into our guild and make you an official team member. In addition, I will be giving you some opportunities and nurture you properly so that you can become a core member of our team."
Newton's voice showed not a shred of emotion as he coldly continued. "However, their suspicions are justified. As the Team Leader of this team, I cannot show favouritism. Even more so, I cannot tolerate having an Awakened entering our ranks! If you are an Awakened, then even though I think highly of you, I will definitely kill you!"
"Still, in order to be fair, I will give you a chance to prove yourself!"
Newton suddenly pulled out a gun and threw it before Chen Xiaolian.
He walked away and pulled Soo Soo over, ignoring the little girl's sobbing. He then threw her towards Chen Xiaolian's side.
Newton looked at his own team members. "Your biggest suspicion towards him is because of his attitude towards NPCs, right?"
Du Ya and Pattern Man nodded.
"Very well!" Newton lowered his head to look at Chen Xiaolian. "Xiaolian, there is a gun before you. Pick it up and kill this NPC, then I will believe that you are not an Awakened!"
Chen Xiaolian was startled!
He looked at the gun placed before him…
Soo Soo's cries turned increasingly loud, the little girl tightly gripped onto Chen Xiaolian's clothes while her body leaned onto his figure.
Finally, Chen Xiaolian let out a sigh.
He stopped looking at the gun. Instead, he raised his head to look at Newton and gave a bitter smile.
"Well, I cannot do it."

GOR Chapter 21: Nest
The silence at this moment was such that if a pin were to drop on the ground, everyone would be able to hear it.
Every Wind Slasher Guild member was coldly looking at Chen Xiaolian. The edges of Sara's mouth revealed traces of cruelty as she sneered. As for Damon, a murderous expression was on his face.
Newton's gaze gradually revealed a deep sense of disappointment.
"So, you really are an Awakened …"
Chen Xiaolian's expression remained calm. He pulled the sobbing Soo Soo to his side and gently patted her hair. After that, Chen Xiaolian raised his head to look at Newton. "Truth be told, I do not even understand what you are talking about."
Newton's eyes turned completely cold.
"Just kill him."
The Pattern Man who had been the least talkative gripped his scimitar and was about to head towards Chen Xiaolian.
"Wait."
Newton extended his hand to restrain the Pattern Man's wrist.
"Newton, it can't be that you are still thinking of letting him go? Have you gone mad?" Damon violently snapped.
Newton looked at him before slowly replying. "Before we came in, there was an identity scan. Regardless of whether he is an Awakened or not, he has already entered this instance and had his identity scanned. That means he has already been incorporated into this instance dungeon's system. Amongst the three conditions within this instance dungeon, do you still remember what the last one was?"
Damon gritted his teeth while remaining silent. Sara and Du Ya turned to look at one another but remained silent as well.
Pattern Man hesitated for a moment before disrupting the silence. "Prohibition of personal feuds between players, not allowed to kill other players, once a violation occurs, it will cause the system to dispense punishment."
"That is right, regardless of whether or not he is an Awakened, he had already been scanned by the instance dungeon the moment he entered. Thus, he has been incorporated into the system and that means he is protected by the system's rules. By personally killing him, one would suffer punishment… those of you who do not mind being punished by the system may act, I will not stop you."
After Newton said those words, no one chose to act.
Sara suddenly laughed out in a tasteless tone. "In that case, all we need to do is not to personally kill him. Bring him along. When we meet monsters along the way, we will just throw him out."
Newton looked at Sara and nodded silently.
Damon grinned widely and sneered at Chen Xiaolian. He moved to Chen Xiaolian's side, observing the one twisted ankle and the blood on his head and face. Laughing fiercely, he suddenly raised his leg and kicked Chen Xiaolian's shoulder!
Chen Xiaolian was directly kicked away and he ended up slamming onto the wall. As he fell, the pain caused his sight to go dark momentarily. He could clearly hear the bones on his shoulders issuing sounds of splintering!
"Depleting his fighting strength alone is not enough as insurance," Sara smiled with squinted eyes as she moved before Chen Xiaolian.
As Chen Xiaolian was feeling puzzled, a system interface prompt suddenly appeared for him.
[Prompt, someone initiated 'thief' skill against you. Items lost: None].
"This kid's item box is empty," Sara shook her head.
She then bent down to pick up the cross-shaped holy sword in Chen Xiaolian's hand and threw it towards Newton. Newton looked at it before keeping it back into the system.
"Let us move, do not waste any more time," Newton coldly said. "Completing the quest first is more important."
He then assigned the tasks, Soo Soo and the Japanese flight attendant would be left to Sara and Du Ya respectively. As for Chen Xiaolian… Damon had seemingly wanted to volunteer when suddenly, Han Bi who had been remaining silent opened his mouth. "I will keep an eye on him."
Observing the team members gaze directed towards him, Han Bi spoke out in a sincere tone. "I am a newbie so I cannot contribute much in terms of battle potential. Later on, we may encounter even more dangers. It would be best if your strengths are focused on the battles. As for matters like this, just leave it to me."
No one suspected his reasoning and Newton nodded.
Han Bi moved forward and pulled Chen Xiaolian up in a seemingly rough manner. Chen Xiaolian coughed out a mouthful of blood and saw a trace of insinuation within Han Bi's eyes.
Damon walked towards one side and forcibly pushed open the other stone gate.
Just as the gate was pushed open, a surge of cold, sinister air rushed inside. The other side was filled with darkness, devoid of any traces of light.
Damon extended his body forward and looked around before turning back and said. "There is a road."
There was indeed a road, but the terrain there was very steep.
The stone gate led to what appeared to be an underground stone precipice. A flight of stairs extended down in the shape of a spiral.
The width of the stairs was extremely narrow, allowing a maximum of only two person to walk side by side. To one side lied the mountain walls while the other was the darkness of the cliff… due to the lack of lighting, it was not possible for them to observe what was lying below.
Even though they had applied the Firefly Frog's secretion onto their bodies, the faint radiance was only barely able to provide illumination for them. This time, Newton had Damon move together with him as vanguard. Damon did not oppose the command and moved forward with his gigantic sword held in his hand.
Du Ya and the rest were in the middle position.
Han Bi was propping Chen Xiaolian with one hand as he secretly helped to support a big part of his weight. Chen Xiaolian had to forcibly hop forward with one leg. Silently, they fell to the rear position of the team. Due to the road being narrow and the fact that there was no way back plus the serious injuries that Chen Xiaolian had suffered, no one paid any attention to it.
Only Soo Soo's sobbing sounds could be heard. She even called out "Xiaolian oppa" a few times, but after being slapped by Sara the little girl was too frightened to continue crying.
The trip down the long staircase took them close to one hour. The pain that Chen Xiaolian had to endure had caused his entire body to almost collapse. Cold sweat had soaked his underclothes and his breathing became increasingly ragged.
The lower down they descended, the more violent the incoming wind. The lower cliffs also brought with it the humming sounds of the wind as the knife like cold wind blew upon their faces.
"Why is this place so cold? My skin has almost been blown dry."
Sara muttered in discontent.
"Enough nonsense, be on high alert," Newton shouted back. "Do not put all your faith on the radar. Since there was a Stealth Hound Demon, it is likely that we will end up bumping into other stealth type monsters. Sara! Keep your eyes open and be vigilant!"
Sara gave a "heng". She could not help herself as she complained once more. "This instance dungeon is really getting on my nerves."
Although she complained about it, she still opened her eyes wide and monitored the surrounding area – as an archer, her vision is the best amongst them all.
After a while, Damon abruptly shouted out from the front. "Halt! There is something!"
Before the stone stairs, something black was lying to the side of the stairs. Damon and Newton moved forward. Using the faint fluorescence from their body, they were able to view the outline of this thing. After which, their faces turned ugly.
It was a… giant spider!
Or more accurately, it was the body of a dead spider.
It was shaped like a small dog, with claws as sharp as a sickle. Although it could no longer move, anyone who saw it would feel their mind turning numb. Its head however, appeared to have been partially bitten off by something.
Newton inspected the spider for a bit; and then, his face suddenly changed!
Beside the spider's corpse was a pool of viscous liquid, clearly having flowed out after its head was bitten off. The viscous liquid had yet to dry up, meaning that the time it was killed was not too long ago!
The Wind Slasher Guild members raised up their weapons as they carefully inspected their surroundings, their forward speed reduced.
After roughly a quarter of an hour, they finally reached the end of the stone staircase.
They were currently within a dark cove. However, the air here was not only cold, it also carried with it the traces of something strange, a slightly sweet scent – this scent was not pleasant to the nose, rather it caused those who smelled it to feel nauseated to the point of wanting to puke.
Damon was walking in the lead. Suddenly, his foot felt something soft. "Puchi", it was as though he had stepped on something.
He quickly lifted his leg and looked down. "What the Hell is this?"
Upon the ground, the one thing that he had stepped on… it has an oval shape… with the appearance of an egg.
"This is…"
"There are a lot of them here!"
"Quick, look at the corner! There are more hanging on the side of the walls!"
Du Ya and Sara shouted out simultaneously.
It was at this point that the faint radiance allowed everyone to clearly see… within this cove that was not too big in size, its walls, corners, were all filled with piles upon piles of… eggs!
Pale white translucent eggs, covered by a creamy white viscous liquid, each of them the size of a coconut. They were all densely piled up together, who knows just how many there were!

"Move quickly!"
Newton's face rapidly changed. "We may have entered some monster's nest! Quickly charge out of this cove!"
The image of those eggs were terrifying, causing a chill to spread through one's heart. Everyone immediately rushed madly towards the front.
However, it was at this moment that a burst of "hua hua hua hua" sounds were emitted from the two sides of the cove right above their heads… it was followed by the descent of stones of various sizes…
"Newton! There is something on top! A lot of them!"
"Bloody Hell! Its spiders! There are so many of them! And so big!"
"They are coming down!"
Upon the walls were countless holes, resembling those of a bee's nest. As they glanced around, they were unable to identify just how many of those spiders of various sizes were crawling out from within the holes! They then crawled along the walls towards the cove in their direction! The same was happening in every direction!
The movement speed of these spiders was extremely fast. In addition, their shapes were not small at all, being that of a small ordinary dog! Those who were faster had already jumped down the walls, blocking the road ahead.
"Damon, clear the way!"
Newton shouted. Without any hesitation, Damon waved his gigantic sword towards the incoming spiders!
Damon's gigantic sword hacked open a spider's head in one stroke! As a white coloured viscous liquid sprayed out towards his body, Damon brandished his great sword. A brilliant light burst out from the sword's edge, causing a series of dazzling radiance to flash in the middle of the air!
The spiders who were blocking the way gave out intermittent screams of misery. A portion of the spiders were dismembered and cleaved apart as Damon singlehandedly paved a way through the group of spiders with utter brutality!
"Quickly keep up! I will open the way, charge!" Damon turned around and waved to his team members. "The outer shell of these things are very hard!"
The gigantic sword within his hand whirled about, flying up and down! The fighting prowess shown by this guy was truly astonishing! He is comparable to a humanoid tank!
The spiders that were blocking their way forward were swept aside by him alone. As for the rest, they sped up their running speed – they have to take advantage of what little time they have! On both sides of the wall, even more spiders were rushing down. It was obvious that they were intending to surround them…
"Toss those NPCs!" Du Ya grunted. "That will give us some time."
This time, Newton did not say anything. Du Ya and Sara looked at one another and proceeded to throw Soo Soo and the Japanese flight attendant on the ground.
Du Ya was more ruthless as he pulled out a dagger and pricked the Japanese flight attendant on her thigh. Blood flowed out freely and a nose piercing scent of blood drifted outwards.
"Haha! Du Ya, I like that freaky nature of yours!" Sara actually threw a wink at him.
"Throw that wastrel kid down. Han Bi, let's go!"
Hearing Du Ya's orders, Han Bi's face turned into a struggle.
At this moment, he felt Chen Xiaolian squeezing his hand.
He raised his head to see Chen Xiaolian calmly shaking his head before using his mouth to form words in silence: "You need to go!"
Han Bi's struggled to breath, he looked at Chen XIaolian with a complicated expression. Finally… gritting his teeth, he put Chen Xiaolian down.
Chen Xiaolian suddenly saw a system prompt:
"Someone sent you Light Sabre x1, someone sent you Beginner Class Healing Type Beast Blood x1."
Chen Xiaolian raised his head in surprise, looking up to Han Bi. Han Bi glanced at him, his mouth silently forming the words: Sorry, take care.
He watched as Han Bi ran forward with large strides and joined up with the Wind Slasher Guild members. Damon was creating a path with his savage sword skills, scattering anything that tried to block his way. Du Ya had also taken out his guns, shooting continuously. Newton and Pattern Man were responsible for covering the gaps. Their group rapidly moved towards the other opening within the cove, moving farther and farther…
Legions of spiders crawled down from the mountain walls; however, they did not continue chasing. Instead, they seemed to have suddenly realized something and began moving towards Chen Xiaolian…
To be precise, they were aiming at Takashimoto Shizuka.
Clearly, the scent of blood in the air had attracted these things.
Du Ya's baiting strategy was a success!
Surrounded by the massive number of spiders, the Japanese flight attendant let out a miserable scream. Her figure crawled rapidly towards Chen Xiaolian as she tried to seek some form of protection.
Soo Soo had already been petrified by fear and could only sit on her spot while sobbing.
Grinding his teeth, Chen Xiaolian sat up and hugged Soo Soo. He then sighed.
"Xiaolian oppa…" Soo Soo cried to the point of losing her breath. As for Takashimoto Shizuka, she had already reached Chen Xiaolian's side. However, she could only tremble, not a single coherent word could be uttered, only a miserable scream.
At this moment, Chen Xiaolian suddenly felt his heart washed by an odd sense of serenity. There was no fear and madness in the face of imminent death, only an indescribable sense of loss…
"I am sorry… I promised to take you home alive," Chen Xiaolian let out a bitter smile.
He observed the legions of spiders charging before him, their sharp-sickle like claws inching closer and closer… Chen Xiaolian simply hugged Soo Soo and closed his eyes…
The anticipated feeling of pain did not arrive. The sharp sickle-like claws had yet to land upon him.
After a while, Chen Xiaolian slowly opened his eyes and looked around in confusion.
He discovered that all three of them were surrounded by a dense ocean of spiders. However, for some unknown reason, these monsters did not rush forward to tear them apart. Instead… they appear to be waiting for something?
Suddenly, a commotion broke out among the swarm of spiders. The spiders of various sizes all showed a sense of unease… soon, the spider swarm separated themselves to two sides, creating a large open path before Chen Xiaolian and the two females.
Under Chen Xiaolian's wide-opened vigilant eyes… a monster appeared.
It was also a spider… the size however… was simply staggering!
The size of this spider was comparable to that of a calf! The black outer shell on its body appeared similar to steel in appearance and those sharp claws are even bigger than Damon's gigantic sword.
The giant spider slowly crawled out and the spiders on both sides all seemed to be turning fearful. All of them retreated to the two sides, as though not daring to get too close to it.
Even so, the giant spider seemed to have an irritable temper. As it slowly made its way towards the three of them, a spider accidentally got too close due to the lack of space among its brethren. This huge monster abruptly appeared to have been provoked.
It waved it humongous sickle claw. Kacha! The unlucky little spider was directly cut in half! However, the giant spider was not satisfied. It moved forward and clipped the corpse towards it, then it opened its enormous mouth…
Kacha! The spider's head was bitten off!
A viscous liquid sprayed all over the area, but the giant spider seemed to have only become even more irritable. Its gigantic body tilted about without moving as it turned around a few times. It then waved its claws, seemingly trying to capture its own brethren whose distance was too close to it…
When that happened, all the spiders became horrified and all of them fell back. The legion of spiders crawled up the mountain walls of their respective sides. Some directly fled into the hole amongst the walls…
In one breath, the giant spider killed around six of its own brethren. Some were dismembered and some were bitten to death by that enormous mouth…
Chen Xiaolian could clearly hear the swarm of spiders issuing cries of misery… the sound was clearly carrying a sense of dread.
Chen Xiaolian watched as the spider swarm within the cove dispersed in retreat, leaving behind the giant monster.
His mouth became parched and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
Suddenly, as though purely subconscious in nature, he used the 'interface vision' of the system to face the giant spider's outline, trying to check it…
[Prompt: Black Widow, Melee Type, A Class War Beast].
A Class? Isn't that one class higher than my own Owner Entrapping Cat?
He could not even duke it out with a B Class Four-Eyed War Cat under perfect conditions. Now that he is seriously injured and partially crippled, he has to face an A Class?
Subsequently though, another line of prompt below caused Chen Xiaolian's heart to pound!
[Prompt: Target Black Widow is in the weakened phase of spawning, all attributes cut in half].
Weakened phase?
All attributes cut in half?
Chen Xiaolian who had already mentally embraced death suddenly found a ray of hope!

GOR Chapter 23: Undress
Without showing any hesitation, Chen Xiaolian shouted loudly. "I choose you, Pikachu! Argh, wrong, Garfield!"
The owner-entrapping cat transformed into a beam of light, appearing before Chen Xiaolian. Seemingly having sensed the dangerous atmosphere, it quickly shed off its adorable state, transforming into the Four-Eyed War Cat!
Garfield let out a roar and charged towards the Black Widow!
In terms of size, Garfield's size was one grade lower than the Black Widow. Judging by the momentum behind him, the charge should have been enough… but…
The Black Widow suddenly raised its sickle like claws…
With a roar, Garfield fell to one side, a long bloody wound was added to its tiger stripes. The Black Widow raised its claws again. This time, Garfield used its forelimbs to stop the Black Widow's sickle claws. Although the claw wound on its body was dripping blood, Garfield bit down savagely.
Kacha!
This bite landed on one of the Black Widow's sickle claw – For the first time, Chen Xiaolian bore hatred towards spiders! Why do spiders have eight claws?!
In addition, the Black Widow is clearly an A Class War Beast of the system! Its strength is obviously more astounding when compared to the Four-Eyed War Cat… the claw that was bitten down by Garfield was waved, abruptly throwing Garfield off!
Garfield had its head slammed onto the ground with a "peng"! As it forced itself up, the Black Widow had already pounced before it!
Fast!
Its sickle was raised, and then it slashed down!
Garfield quickly dodged… with a "chi", a rock next to him was cut by the Black Widow's sickle claw as easily as cutting soft cheese!
This shocking cutting force caused the observing Chen Xiaolian's heart to break out in cold sweat!
Garfield rapidly retreated while the Black Widow went after it. Under its gigantic sickle claws, eight rocks were easily cut apart in succession.
The Black Widow appeared berserk, everywhere it could reach, everywhere it went, a wild storm followed. Any rock that fell under its field of reach would end up being split apart.
Garfield jumped far away and began panting for air…
After having slashed apart numerable amount of stones, the Black Widow seemed to have calmed down. It stood far away and began to tinker with its claws.
Garfield then began behaving like a cat, and started moving about cautiously.
It bounced to the left and right, attempting to find an opportunity to attack…
It was at this moment that Chen Xiaolian discovered something critical!
To his surprise, every one of the Black Widow's reaction was slower by… half a beat!
Indeed, it was a very minute half beat!
After Garfield had completed its jump to the left, it would turn to the left. After Garfield had turned to the right, it would then turn to the right…
In every instance, it was only after Garfield had finished its jump and landed upon the ground, issuing a sound that the Black Widow would turn around!
Chen Xiaolian's heart suddenly pounded violently!
It… cannot see?
A thought suddenly flashed through his mind, followed by the rotating gears within his mind. A series of speculations was formed!
They are currently far underground! A place where there is no light!
To what extent is the darkness in this place? The Wind Slasher Guild members needed to use the Firefly Frog secretions to illuminate this area when they came in!
From a biological studies point of view: All life forms will evolve according to its environment!
Life forms that could survive and evolve within absolutely darkness… will usually have a weak vision!
The reason being, from an evolutionary perspective, these life forms do not need vision in a place of absolute darkness.
After having thought about this, Chen Xiaolian made a risky move!
He quickly summoned Garfield into the system!
Black Widow was suddenly unable to locate Garfield, and became seemingly stunned for a moment. It then turned around twice while maintaining its position – this awkward movement made Chen Xiaolian certain!
He made his next move!
Undress!
Do not forget, back when Chen Xiaolian was applying the Firefly Frog secretions, he had prepared a trick up his sleeve.
He had only smeared the secretions onto the protective suit!
After taking off the protective suit, Chen Xiaolian shouted out loudly, attracting the attention of the Black Widow. He then threw the protective suit that was glowing with the light from the Firefly Frog secretions towards the left of the Black Widow!
Shua!
The Black Widow was indeed lured by it. Its figure pounced forward, its sickle claws slashing down! The protective suit was instantly cut into two!
The extent of its sharpness thoroughly shocked Chen Xiaolian's heart!
Even though this protective suit is clearly not high-levelled goods, it could at least provide some defence – during the time when they were dealing with the Demon Soldiers, it had blocked off several attacks for him!
After the Black Widow failed to hit him, it scraped its claws for a while. Then it suddenly turned towards Chen Xiaolian!
Chen Xiaolian looked at the two females beside him.
Soo Soo's body was not smeared with Firefly Frog secretions. Perhaps it was due to her age, they had thus decided not to smear it on her.
The only source of light…
Chen Xiaolian showed no hesitation… he extended his hands towards Takashimoto Shizuka!
Takashimoto Shizuka had originally been scared senseless. It was at this moment, however, that she suddenly felt Chen Xiaolian's hands reaching towards her chest.
The Japanese flight attendant's body trembled. Her first thought was: At a time like this! He actually wanted to do this kind of thing?
There was no time for Chen Xiaolian to unbutton it one by one. With a "shua", he tore off the Japanese flight attendant's uniform! The buttons popped out, and tears fell out of Takashimoto Shizuka as she cried sharply: "No!"
"Don't make any noise!" Chen Xiaolian urgently shouted out. After that, he proceeded neatly and quickly to render the Japanese flight attendant half-naked…
There was no way around it. The Firefly Frog secretion on her body was applied by Sara. That woman had evilly applied it all over the place.
Despite seeing her underwear being torn off, Takashimoto Shizuka did not have the strength to even cry. She tried to push Chen Xiaolian's hands away. However, how could she resist Chen Xiaolian's strength?
When Chen Xiaolian's hands were seemingly stretched towards her bra, the Japanese flight attendant finally cried out. "No! I beg you please don't!"
Chen Xiaolian stared blankly before quickly replying, "Do not misunderstand, I am just…"
As his mouth was talking, his hand continued moving.
Shua!
It was torn off!
He then crumpled it and violently threw it away!
The Japanese flight attendant quickly put both hands up to cover her chest… that blossom white part. Chen Xiaolian did not look at it in detail and only had a glimpse…
En, it turns out she is flat…
A trace of regret appeared within Chen Xiaolian's heart.
After the clothes were thrown out, the light emitted from it attracted the Black Widow's attack. The giant spider charged towards the clothes, its gigantic sickle claws slashing down madly, tearing apart the flight attendant's uniform… as for the piece that was probably Victoria's Secret's latest series of underwear, that too was brutally ripped apart…
The Japanese flight attendant felt Chen Xiaolian's hand moving towards her. She was about to scream out when Chen Xiaolian's hand suddenly covered her mouth!
"Do not make any noise! It is blind!"
Chen Xiaolian whispered, his mouth was right beside Takashimoto Shizuka's ears. Wet and hot…
Takashimoto Shizuka's body trembled… at the same time, some place within her also seemed to tremble once.
Chen Xiaolian did not have the spare energy to care about all these. He nervously observed the Black Widow. After the Black Widow vented its fury upon Takashimoto Shizuka's clothes, it begun to quiet down… it was as though it was trying to carefully detect a signal… it stood above the flight attendant uniform. Thanks to the faint illumination from the uniform, Chen Xiaolian was able to clearly see what it looks like…
Chen Xiaolian's heart froze!
He quickly grabbed a stone and threw it far away with all his strength. The stone dropped behind the Black Widow!
The stone hit the mountain walls, and the Black Widow immediately picked up the sound caused by it. Its huge sickle claws flashed and promptly slashed down upon the mountain walls!
As he watched the Black Widow slicing down on the door sized rocks as easily as one would cut butter…
Chen Xiaolian's scalp turned numb and he cursed inwardly: You bitch sure are an expert in excavation! Are you from Lanxiang? [1]
The Black Widow was lured farther and farther away until Chen Xiaolian could no longer see its outline clearly.
At that moment, there were only two faint source of firefly light within the cove. They were Chen Xiaolian's protective suit and Takashimoto Shizuka's clothes.
With the exception of those two, the cove remained shrouded in darkness.
Chen Xiaolian held several stones within his palm. From time to time, he would throw a stone far away. The sound of the stone would attract the Black Widow's attention – at the current, neither side could see each other.
Chen Xiaolian had already loosened his grip on Takashimoto Shizuka's mouth. He quickly produced the final Beginner Class Healing Type Beast Blood that Han Bi had given him and swallowed it.
He placed one hand around Soo Soo and the other around the Japanese flight attendant. He then whispered into their ears. "Get up and follow me. Do not make any noise."
Chen Xiaolian could feel his body strength returning and he could begin to feel his injured ankle. However, due to the injury of the broken shoulder being far beyond the healing capacity of the 'Beginner Class Beast Blood', it could not be healed. It only reduced the pain significantly.
However, this was quite good. At least now that his ankle had recovered, he would have the ability to move.
Although his strength was still weak…
"A clear-sighted person versus the blind! Watch me beat you to death!"
Chen Xiaolian pulled the two females up.

GOR Chapter 24: You Can Kiss Me Back
Chen Xiaolian cautiously threw out several stones. By listening to the sound made by the Black Widow's reaction, he estimated the distance between it and himself. With his hands around both females, he moved with an extremely slow rate as he tried his best to not make any sound.
Chen Xiaolian steered the two females to where he recalled was the corner of the cove. He had them hide themselves in the corner beside a rocky cliff. As for the Black Widow, it had been lured to another side by the stones he threw out.
Chen Xiaolian breathed a sigh of relief.
"Wait here. Do not make any noise and do not move."
He loosened his arms around the two females. Due to the darkness of their surroundings at the present, he was unable to see that Takashimoto Shizuka's face had turned red to the point of oozing blood.
Takashimoto Shizuka's skin is very smooth and creamy. In addition, when he was hugging her earlier, he could feel the softness of her body. Even though they were in a time of crisis, Chen Xiaolian who is a virgin was naturally unable to control his pounding heart.
At any rate, I am going to be fighting to the death… I might end up dying here, right?
Chen Xiaolian himself could not discern if his brains had shorted out or if it was due to other factors, but at this moment his heart suddenly burst forth with an inexplicable courage.
Within the darkness, both his hands clasped onto Takashimoto Shizuka's face before firmly kissing her!
Takashimoto Shizuka only had enough time to let out a "wu" before feeling her mouth being blocked off.
This person's kiss is extremely awkward and is even somewhat rough.
After he moved away his head, Takashimoto Shizuka heard him whispering into her ear.
"I am sorry, I just want to savour the taste of a kiss before I die… consider this as me owing you."
"If I make it, you can kiss me back."
Kiss, kiss back?
What was that supposed to mean?
Takashimoto Shizuka's heart became a mess. However, Chen Xiaolian did not say or do anything else. He quickly turned around and left! He ran out towards the centre of the cove!
His running sound immediately alerted the Black Widow. Chen Xiaolian was able to hear the other party crawling over with considerable speed, the claws emitting "hualala" sounds as it scraped the ground.
Chen Xiaolian suddenly stopped moving. Sneering, he retrieved something from his pocket.
It was a very small bottle!
This was… the bottle with the leftover Firefly Frog secretions!
The transparent glass emitted a faint radiance, seemingly indicating to the Black Widow where it should attack! He watched as the Black Widow rushed towards him. As the distance between them lessened, Chen Xiaolian suddenly bent his body as he performed a standard baseball throwing action!
Xiu!
The bottle emanating a faint light flew out! It appeared to resemble a beacon…
At the same time, Chen Xiaolian quickly fell to the ground. Exerting all his strength, he quickly made his way to one side!
The charging speed of the Black Widow was extremely fast. In addition, there was also the factor of inertia. Even though it tried to stop itself, it still found itself being forced towards the spot where Chen Xiaolian was originally standing! Chen Xiaolian could practically feel the Black Widow's sickle claws sweeping past his face!
Pa!
The glass bottle struck the Black Widow squarely on its back before breaking, causing the Firefly Frog secretions to spill out and spread across the outer shell of the Black Widow. In this wide-open area, the Black Widow had turned into a conspicuously moving light source.
Chen Xiaolian had rolled all the way to the side. He got up and saw that the distance between the Black Widow and himself was only tens of metres. The Black Widow was furiously turning around.
"Come on out, Garfield!"
The Four-Eyed War Cat was summoned out again! It roared before charging it from the side, causing the Black Widow to stagger. Garfield's sharp claws left deep claw marks upon the Black Widow's sickle claws and limbs.
This owner-entrapping cat seemed to have understood that its strength was weaker than its opponent. After attacking, it retreated, moving quickly to a side.
At this moment, the enemy was exposed while he hid in the darkness. Garfield paced about in the surroundings. The Black Widow charged at him several times, but the sharp sickle claws only managed to fleece a few of the surrounding rocks and was unable to bring any harm to the Four-Eyed War Cat.
Chen Xiaolian was waiting!
He was waiting for an opportunity!
At long last, Garfield did not let Chen Xiaolian down and unleashed a 'Cat's Roar' against the Black Widow!
Against the Black Widow, an A Class War Beast, the damage of Cat's Roar was too small, however… the additional 'stun' effect was what Chen Xiaolian was aiming for!
He was gambling!
After being struck by the translucent mass of qi, the Cat's Roar, it only retreated two steps backwards. It then sharpened its sickle claws and rush forward madly… Garfield retreated again.
Stun effect did not trigger!
Chen Xiaolian gritted his teeth and remained immobile. He continued waiting.
Garfield dodged and scurried about in all directions, a cat that was being chased by a Black Widow throughout the entire cove area. In some instances, Garfield ended up stamping down onto the spider eggs lying on the ground, breaking them in the process. This caused the Black Widow to emit a shrill cry of anger.
Soon, Garfield utilized the 'Cat's Roar' again. This time too, the stun effect did not trigger.
Chen Xiaolian became concerned.
He could sense that Garfield's momentum was quickly declining. It was clear that even though its damage was low, the 'Cat's Roar', Garfield's only long-range attack skill consumed a lot of Endurance.
Again! Again ah!
It seemed as though the Heavens had finally heard Chen Xiaolian's prayer…
Garfield let out a furious roar!
The mass of qi discharged this time was obviously much smaller in size, however, as it hit the Black Widow's body…
[Prompt: War Pet Four-Eyed War Cat launched the 'Cat's Roar' skill. Small probability of causing stun triggered. Due to the target being of a higher level compared to your War Pet, stun duration halved. Effect will last three seconds… three…]
Chen Xiaolian's heart was overjoyed!
He did not even bother about the 'stun duration halved' matter. Wielding the light sabre, he charged forward!
This charge contained all his might!
The Black Widow remained at its original spot, its eight limbs appeared to be moving drunkenly, swinging back and forth. Chen Xiaolian vigorously charged at it, bending his knees to the ground and letting his body sweep pass the ground!
His knees scraped the ground, causing skin and flesh to be torn off but Chen Xiaolian did not pay any heed to those matters!
Chen Xiaolian used both hands to raise up the light sabre and activated the beam of light. His body remained close to the ground as the momentum propelled him forward to slide across the bottom part of the Black Widow's belly!
Observing the belly of the Black Widow above his head, he noticed that there was a sheet of white…
Chen Xiaolian raised up both hands to viciously pierce upwards with the light sabre!
Zi zi zi zi…
A harsh sound! The light sabre's beam left a long wound upon the Black Widow's belly! A white viscous liquid spilled out!
The Black Widow let out a painful howl, its mouth opened wide. It then raised its sickle claws and stabbed down towards the ground. At this moment, however, Chen Xiaolian had already slipped out from another side!
Three seconds!
Stun effect ended!
Chen Xiaolian quickly deactivated the light sabre to remove its illumination!
The Black Widow screamed painfully. The injury on its belly had snapped it out of the effects of the stun. Yet, it was still unable to stand properly. As it turned around, it was obvious that it was staggering.
My gamble was spot on! The belly is really its weak point!
Chen Xiaolian sighed a breath of relief.
He recalled having watched some science programs, which pointed out that the greatest vulnerability for most spiders is the belly. That is also where its spider web organ is positioned. It is also the softest area out of all the spiders' body parts!
Garfield who had unleashed three Cat's Roar was obviously exhausted in terms of Endurance. However, Chen Xiaolian dared not summon it back into the system.
The Four-Eyed War Cat continued attacking with all its might. Taking advantage of the Black Widow's unstable posture, it landed one claw strike after another upon the Black Widow's body.
Using its B Class power, which could break apart a tree with a paw strike, Garfield left several marks on the Black Widow's body before it finally exhausted all its Endurance.
Watching Garfield shrinking, Chen Xiaolian quickly summoned it back into the system. [1]
After having done that, Chen Xiaolian carefully closed the distance between him and the Black Widow by circling around to its back! He then moved closer bit by bit!
This process took a very long time! As time ticked by, Chen Xiaolian seemed to have transformed into a hunter with a great deal of patience!
He did not act in haste and only approached cautiously. Two steps to the front, then stop for a moment; he then made a careful observation of the Black Widow's reaction. If the Black Widow turned around, he would instantly move in a circle!
According to his mental calculations, he had spent nearly a quarter of an hour to close the distance between the Black Widow and himself from a 50 metres gap to less than 20 metres!
The current distance was quite dangerous. Due to the illumination source being spilled onto the Black Widow's body, if it were to turn around and face Chen Xiaolian, then… that faint illumination would very likely cause Chen Xiaolian to become exposed.
Chen Xiaolian gripped the light sabre handle in the palm of his hand, his palm was filled with sweat and his teeth were gritted!
At this moment, the Black Widow suddenly made a move that Chen Xiaolian did not expect.
It suddenly swayed its head about, then…
It crawled slowly towards the left corner of the cove
Chen Xiaolian's heart sank!
The left corner… there… was where Takashimoto Shizuka and Soo Soo were hiding!
Chen Xiaolian stared at the Black Widow's head and immediately recognized the problem!
Scent!
The Japanese flight attendant's thigh was pricked with a knife before, causing a no small amount of blood to flow out. The scent of blood had been scattered to the air! Even though the Black Widow was blind… its sense of smell was not completely lost.
The Black Widow began to move towards the scent of blood as it crawled towards the corner.
Chen Xiaolian hesitated for a moment. Then… he made his mind to take the risk!
No longer being able to aim for the best positioning, Chen Xiaolian rushed up madly. His objective was clear, it was the Black Widow's… rear abdomen! More accurately, he was aiming for the rear tip!
The system prompt had explained that the Black Widow was in its weakened phase, all attributes halved…
Then, why would it be in a weakened phase?
Chen Xiaolian made a speculation – this cove filled with spider eggs was the answer!
Black Widow, this name could be associated with many things: A mother spider, spawning eggs… and it will eat male spiders!
The Black Widow eating up other spiders was something that Chen Xiaolian had already witnessed the moment it appeared.
Now add in the fact that there were so many eggs in the cove and the name 'Black Widow'! If he still could not figure out why it was weakened – those National Geographic magazines that he read would have been for naught!
The almighty senior Bear Grylls will also not forgive me!
Chen Xiaolian rushed out. His speed at this moment was astonishing!
For Chen Xiaolian whose body had been strengthened, the distance of only tens of metres could be covered in less than 2 seconds. The light sabre's beam lit up!
Then…
He exerted all his strength, all his might, exhausted… everything!
All of it was thrown behind the light sabre as it was fiercely stabbed forward!
Puchi!
All the way until the handle itself was pierced in!
The Black Widow's body violently trembled. It abruptly raised its head and roared out in pain, its sharp cry nearly piercing through Chen Xiaolian's ears!
Chen Xiaolian's one strike had succeeded and he wanted to retreat as soon as possible. Unfortunately, he was too late. The Black Widow's hind limbs fiercely bounced up. Chen Xiaolian felt a tremor running through his body, as though a heavy hammer had struck him. His body sailed up into the air to fall down in an area around eight metres away. After he fell to the ground, his mouth spat out blood continuously.
Upon his chest, a sickle-like gash had formed and his clothes and skin had been cut! His flesh was cut open, exposing the white bones within!
The Black Widow turned around; it had already locked on to Chen Xiaolian's direction. It struggled to move forward, but its 'rear tip' was greatly wounded. A light sabre remained stuck, piercing from its rear into its abdomen, causing the Black Widow to helplessly shake about for a moment. In the end, it fell to the back as its hind limbs were no longer able to support its weight. As for its fore limbs, they flailed about but were unable to bring it even a step forward!
Chen Xiaolian could feel his blood flowing out freely, the severe pain seemingly pushing him to the point of unconsciousness.
At long last, the Black Widow issued a sound that resembled a helpless sigh. Then, its body turned crooked as it lay upon the ground…
[Prompt, you have successfully killed an A Class War Beast, Black Widow. Loot obtained: Mid Class Healing Type Beast Blood x2, Black Widow's Soul x1. Do you want to pick it up?]
Chen Xiaolian could feel his eyelids getting increasingly heavier and more blurry… he forcibly gritted his teeth and confirmed the pickup…
He then quickly retrieved one of the Mid Class Healing Type Beast Blood from the system… swallow…
He was finally unable to hold on to his consciousness anymore and closed his eyes.
[Prompt, you have successfully killed an A Class War Beast, Black Widow x1. Obtained system reward for newbie's first kill of an A Class War Beast. Please confirm].
En?
That was Chen Xiaolian's last trace of consciousness as he finally fainted for real.

GOR Chapter 25: Humane Brother Xiaolian
When Chen Xiaolian woke up, he felt his body leaning against a soft place.
He opened his eyes and heard Takashimoto Shizuka's exclamations of joy.
Only after blinking a few times did Chen Xiaolian confirm that he was being embraced by the Japanese flight attendant. His head was resting on her pair of slender legs.
Turning around, he saw Soo Soo with tears flowing down her face. She moved to his side and tightly gripped onto his clothes with her small hands.
"I did not die… haha, that is good!"
Chen Xiaolian exhaled.
Takashimoto Shizuka's face was somewhat flushed. She pulled back her legs and carefully helped Chen Xiaolian into a sitting position.
"Are you all right?"
Listening to the Japanese flight attendant's gentle voice, Chen Xiaolian looked at her… en, she had already put on a layer of clothes… it was obviously Soo Soo's jacket. However, the little loli's size was clearly too small. The little jacket was stretched tight and taut to fit her body. Additionally, some areas were left exposed.
There was a very weak light source due to a pile of tattered and torn uniform belonging to the Japanese flight attendant. The uniform still had the Firefly Frog secretions upon it – they must have retrieved it.
After glancing at Takashimoto Shizuka just once, he quickly averted his gaze to look around.
He then frowned: The three of them were still in the cove!
This is not a safe place…
The multitudinous holes upon the walls were keeping a great number of spider monsters! Even though they had been scared off by the Black Widow, if some of them crawled out again, then the three of them would have to be buried here.
Standing up, Chen Xiaolian examined his own chest… the deep bone-revealing wound had already been closed up. Even his previously injured left shoulder was no longer causing him any pain.
En, Mid Class Healing Beast Blood has a much better healing potency compared to Beginner Class.
"How long was I asleep?" Chen Xiaolian turned around to look at the two females.
"I do not know, there is no way to calculate the time here," Takashimoto Shizuka carefully replied. "Maybe… about half an hour."
Half an hour? That is not bad…
Chen Xiaolian instantly summoned out Garfield. Seeing it turn into the Adorable Form of a fat cat, he fed it a cat biscuit. After eating, Garfield's withering spirit was lifted.
Suddenly, Chen Xiaolian felt his clothes being tugged. He lowered his head to see Soo Soo looking at him with wide-open eyes. "Oppa… the monster. You killed it?"
"En… I have killed it."
Chen Xiaolian smiled gently and rubbed her hair. He turned around to look at the area in the cove where the Black Widow died…
He walked over to check it out. The corpse had disappeared but there was something on the ground.
Eh… my own light sabre?
Better retrieve it.
He then recalled the system prompt that he had seen just before losing consciousness…
Chen Xiaolian quickly checked the system. When he saw the 'system reward for newbie's first kill of an A Class War Beast', his heart secretly pulsated several times. He then confirmed it.
[Prompt, following the rules for newbies, whenever a newbie kills an A Class or higher class of War Beast, they will receive this reward. This reward can be received at any time. This reward can only be obtained once for each player. Do you want to check the details?]
What nonsense, of course I want to check!
[Reward description: Because you have killed an A Class War Beast, you obtained this system reward. Select one of the personal attributes to have it enhanced, effect of enhancement for the selected attribute is an increase by one class].
Select one attribute, increase by one class?
This reward is very praiseworthy ah!
Chen Xiaolian quickly opened his personal attributes interface and viewed it.
Physique: C
Endurance: D
Agility: B
Energy Points: Zero
En… ignore Energy Points first. I do not have any ranged skills, there is no need for Energy Points at the moment.
Melee… strength should by primarily connected to Physique! My destructive strength is too weak, if I could enhance my destructive strength…
Agility is good as well. If it were to be enhanced by one class, then my running speed would be faster…
Forget it, with him bringing the two females along, running faster is useless… when the time comes for him to make a desperate escape, Chen Xiaolian knew that he did not have what it takes to leave the two females aside – that is not how a male should act!
In the end, enhancing Physique is still the best. With an increased strength, my melee power would be increased as well.
But as Chen Xiaolian was preparing to enhance his 'Physique' by one class…
[Prompt, do you want to enhance Physique? Current attribute at C, after enhancement, attribute would be at C].
Eh? Only from C to C… I had assumed that it would directly become B Class…
However, now that this had happened, Chen Xiaolian became hesitant!
With the Class increment being so minute… it became evident that the difference in Class increments for this system is very big!
Moreover, according to Chen Xiaolian's previous experience of playing games for years… for any game, the early upgrades are much easier. However, the upgrades in the late game, for each level, there will be a great divide!
This reward that could directly give one upgrade at any given moment while disregarding any conditions… if he were to use it here, would it not be a waste?
Upgrading C to C. It would be more cost-effective to do so using some other methods! Do not forget, Chen Xiaolian had previously strengthened himself using the points given by the Beginner Strengthening Kit. Using only 100 points, he was able to upgrade his Physique and Agility by one class! However… based on his experience of playing countless games, he made a speculation. In the later stages, in order to upgrade his attribute by one class from say, A to S Class… it may very well require several thousand or even tens of thousands of points!
Or perhaps it would be an insurmountable Heavenly divide!
This upgrade type of reward, it would be better to leave it for later…
As the saying goes, after a hundred feet worth of success, take yet another step [1]. That is the most difficult step – why don't I keep this unconditional upgrade reward until the time for the 'next step'?
Although… deep down a faint voice was scolding him: At a time like this, what future do you want to consider? Heaven knows what kind of difficulty we will encounter next! Isn't the biggest goal to leave here and head home? Who cares about in the future? Upgrade my strength and increase my chances of surviving is good enough!
However… after Chen Xiaolian continued hesitating for a while, on the [Do you want to initiate enhancement now, he selected [No].
He firmly shook his head to shut off the distracting thoughts inside his head.
En, there is another loot…
Black Widow's soul!
[Captured Black Widow's soul, do you want to adopt it as a War Pet?]
Chen Xiaolian laughed out!
Hahaha! Trading in a water gun for a cannon!
The Black Widow is a powerful one ah!
He lowered his head to see the fat cat that was using its fat head to rub his boots…
It is more powerful than you, you know?
Heng, after this you should change your profession to a full-time adorability flasher! Just leave the combat side of things to Black Widow!
"Confirm!"
Chen Xiaolian smiled from ear to ear.
The next moment however, he froze.
[Prompt: Due to Class restriction, you can only adopt one War Pet. Do you want to replace? If replacement is chosen, the original War Pet would be exterminated by the system].
… exterminated!
The bloody word had made its way into Chen Xiaolian's mind!
He lowered his head to again look at the fat cat that was rubbing against his boots while flashing its adorability…
Sighing… he selected [No].
I am not an ungrateful person.
Although this cat can be quite the shitty cat… if it had not fought to the death against the Black Widow, Chen Xiaolian would not have any chance to hold on until the end. Thinking back to how it had its body slashed by the Black Widow time and again…
If he has the Black Widow, then he would let it retire and turn to a full-time adorable flasher.
But, extermination?
Chen Xiaolian did not show any hesitation to say no to this thought!
He bent down and picked up Garfield into his arms, then rubbed its fat head.
"Hey, I have returned you the favour. Next time, you will need to work hard to fight, all right? Don't entrap your owner anymore."
"Meow~~~"

GOR Chapter 26: Must Survive
We must not continue staying in this cove. This place is too dangerous!
Chen Xiaolian pulled the two females over and made the decision to leave this place.
"Let us continue moving forward."
Chen Xiaolian had no choice but to make this decision.
Go back? That would mean going through the stone stairway on the cliff! In addition… they had seen a spider corpse upon the stairway before. This meant that there was a possibility of the spiders crawling up there. If they were to encounter those spiders while climbing the stairway, then they would have no place to escape to.
Go further back? The great hall with Demon Soldiers had been made to collapse and is now blocked off. There is no way to move back.
The only way out is… to move forward.
"We'll go slower, maintain vigilance at all time… hopefully, we will not meet the Wind Slasher Guild members."
He brought the two females together with him; the wound on the flight attendant's thigh had already been tied up. Chen Xiaolian had hesitated and chosen not to give Takashimoto Shizuka the Healing Beast Blood – it was not because Chen Xiaolian was being stingy but because there was only one Mid Class Healing Beast Blood left!
There was no telling what they would end up encountering. In case a fight was to erupt, he might require it. Not to mention… only by having himself survive would the two females have any hope of staying alive.
Chen Xiaolian was not being selfish. At a time like this, he had to make this choice.
He had one of Takashimoto Shizuka's hand draped over his shoulders as they moved. As for Soo Soo, he had Shizuka use her other hand to hold on to her.
En, Garfield was up front scouting ahead.
Although their speed was slow, the three of them exited the cove rapidly. Before them…
Outside the cove was a cliff!
A bottomless chasm was laid out before them! Tens of metres away on the opposite area was another cliff.
The one thing connecting the two cliffs was a rickety iron chain bridge. Although there were some boards atop it, they were basically all rotten. In addition, there was also blowing winds here. Under the roaring winds, the iron chain bridge swayed unsteadily between the two cliffs, akin to a swing…
Heavily gritting his teeth, Chen Xiaolian turned to look at the pale faced Takashimoto Shizuka, then towards Soo Soo.
The Japanese flight attendant's thigh had suffered from an injury while Soo Soo was lacking in strength… it was unlikely that these two females would be able to cross this unsteady iron chain bridge with their own strength.
"I can bring you across… however…" Chen Xiaolian frowned. "I only have two hands. One will be holding onto the iron chain while the other hand holds on to one person. Thus… I will need to do it twice."
The two females understood.
"Oppa, bring unnie over first. I will wait for you here. I will be obedient and won't run around," Soo Soo blinked her big round eyes as she said.
Those dark round eyes, it was simply too adorable for Chen Xiaolian to resist.
"Take her over first…" Takashimoto Shizuka whispered. "She is a child, it is more important to protect her safety."
"That is enough, stop it," Chen Xiaolian thought about it. "Truth is, there is not much of a difference… even though this place is not safe, the same could be said about the other side. It does not matter who I send over first, when I am coming back here for the other person, the one on the other side would be left alone… theoretically speaking, the risk is the same for both sides."
Chen Xiaolian thought about how to proceed. He summoned Garfield back into the system before bringing Soo Soo over the bridge!
The process in itself was scary but actually of no real risk. The iron chain bridge swayed a lot and the little girl was scared to the point of closing off her eyes. So, Chen Xiaolian hugged her with one hand as she tightly held onto his neck…
With Chen Xiaolian's current level of astonishing Physique, his strength was comparable to a low class War Beast. (Four-Eyed War Cat expressed its discontent: Who are you calling a low class War Beast?)
After crossing the bridge, Chen Xiaolian placed Soo Soo down on the ground before summoning out Garfield to keep her company. If any danger were to appear, this guy would be able to at least do something about it.
However, as Chen Xiaolian was moving back using the iron chain bridge…
Boom!!!
Both cliffs abruptly shook with severe intensity!
"Earthquake?!"
It was then followed by the sound of rumbling!
The ground kept shaking! Stones fell continuously from above the cliffs! Soo Soo who was on the other side began crying as she squatted down on the ground, covering her ears.
Takashimoto Shizuka was also scared, her ability to stand firmly lost as she fell onto a sitting position on the ground.
It was then that a loud bang erupted!
Somewhere on the other side, a place deeper into the instance dungeon… a seemingly vast amount of light flashed out!
It appeared to be due to something exploding!
The intensity of the quakes gradually increased!
The iron chains emitted groaning sounds! The degree of swaying was nearing 360 degrees! Chen Xiaolian who was on it was unable to move forward at all and could only hold on to the iron chains!
It was at this moment that an unpleasant sound of twisting metal could be heard!
The iron chain fixed upon Takashimoto Shizuka's cliff area suddenly issued out a cracking sound! An iron chain broke off. With a "xiu", it fell down the cliff!
"Son of a bitch!"
Chen Xiaolian cursed loudly.
"Mr Xiaolian!"
Takashimoto Shizuka suddenly stopped crying. She vigorously jumped up from the ground, throwing herself onto the side of the cliff.
Chen Xiaolian shouted. "Don't go near the cliff! Stand properly and wait for me to pick you up!"
Takashimoto Shizuka bit down hard on her lips.
At present, blood had started flowing from her lips! The weak Japanese flight attendant's eyes flashed with absolute determination!
"Mr. Xiaolian! You must go back quickly! Do not come over!"
"Don't talk nonsense! Retreat from the cliff side! Wait for me!" Chen Xiaolian was furious. He gripped onto the iron chain and stepped several paces forward.
Kacha!
Another iron chain had broken!
This time around, the breaking sound came from Soo Soo's area.
"Mr. Xiaolian! Quickly go back!" Takashimoto Shizuka's face was filled with tears. "Enough! It is enough! You have done more than enough for us! The iron chain is about to break! Quickly go back!"
Plop.
Takashimoto Shizuka knelt down on the ground, clenched her fists tightly and exerted all her strength to shout. "Enough! It is really enough! Don't risk yourself for us anymore! You have done enough! The chain is going to break! Quickly go back!"
"I can still try!" Chen Xiaolian gritted his teeth and moved yet another two paces forward. This time though, a "kacha" sound rang out… another heart shaking sound came from the connection point for the iron chains!
"Go back!"
Takashimoto Shizuka suddenly jumped up. "Quickly go back! Even if you come over, the iron chain is going to break and you won't be able to reach the other side! Soo Soo is still over there!"
"I…" Chen Xiaolian's heart was filled with regret.
"Go back! I will be waiting over here. When you are safe, you can think of a way to save me… do not worry about me, I will be waiting here."
Chen Xiaolian was thinking of saying something. However, the weak Japanese flight attendant, Takashimoto Shizuka suddenly seemed to be bursting with courage.
"If you still won't go back! I will immediately jump down the cliff!"
Boom!
Another loud sound rang out! In the connection area for the iron chains, a small chunk of stone broke off directly and fell into the deep abyss…
Seeing the iron chain bridge teetering on the brink of collapse, in just another moment…
"I will really jump!"
Seeing how Chen Xiaolian was still hesitating, Takashimoto Shizuka suddenly took a step towards the side of the cliff…
Chen Xiaolian could see that this Japanese woman was serious!
"Don't! I will go back! I will go back!"
Chen Xiaolian understands as well that the matter was no longer possible.
Three iron chain had broken off in succession. The bridge could collapse at any given moment!
He quickly retreated until he reached the side of the cliff…
Just as his feet came in contact with the ground…
With a bang, the connection point for the iron chain bridge at Takashimoto Shizuka's side completely broke! The entire iron chain bridge fell down into the abyss…
Holding on to Soo Soo, Chen Xiaolian quickly retreated…
The rumbling sounds continued non-stop as the number of broken rocks increased. Both sides of the cliff had an entire piece directly chipped off!
Chen Xiaolian brought Soo Soo over to a safe area before looking back to the other side. He then breathed a sigh of relief.
Takashimoto Shizuka was still there. She had safely retreated several metres away from the cliff side.
Countless rocks had fallen down, transforming into an obstruction blocking the path that they had used to exit the spider cove!
This meant that Takashimoto Shizuka was now eternally trapped on the other side, a place upon the cliff with a surface area of less than tens of metres.
Taking a deep breath, Chen Xiaolian shouted loudly. "Wait for me! I will definitely think of a way to save you!"
Takashimoto Shizuka stood there, her face filled with tears. She forced herself to put on a smile; she then waved with all her might and shouted in a loud voice. "You must survive, Mr Xiaolian!"
She gently rubbed away her tears and murmured. "You must live on… you must."

GOR Chapter 27: Wind Slasher Guild's Crisis
Chen Xiaolian held on to Soo Soo and continued venturing forth.
After the cliff area was a passage. While moving across this passage, Chen Xiaolian unexpectedly saw bloodstains upon the ground!
The crimson red blood exuded a nose piercing scent.
Moreover… back then, the sounds of explosions and flashes of fire had appeared from some distance…
Perhaps it was from the members of the Wind Slasher Guild?
To survive… Without any path of retreat, how would I escape from here?
There is also the need to save Takashimoto Shizuka… in that case… the one method available would likely be…
Complete this instance dungeon?
Perhaps, only by completing this instance dungeon would the way out of this underground labyrinth reveal itself?
The blood on the ground meant that the Wind Slasher Guild had encountered an intense battle here. In addition, it seems someone had been injured?
Hopefully, the one injured is not Han Bi.
Chen Xiaolian carefully led Soo Soo through the passage. There, he observed the remnant marks left on the wall… there were also several arrows. Those obviously belonged to Sara.
When they reached a corner in the passage…
An item upon the ground caused Chen Xiaolian to become momentarily stunned!
That was… a scimitar!
Chen Xiaolian clearly recalled that this was one of the dual weapons wielded by Pattern Man. Additionally, this scimitar must certainly be one of his high levelled equipment. For a Player to end up losing his own weapon, one could only imagine what kind of miserable circumstance they have found themselves in.
He picked up the scimitar, gently testing its weight and found that it was handy – this item was certainly of a higher level compared to his own light sabre.
Using the system to check:
[Snow Edge, B Class Melee Equipment, additional 'Armour Break' effect, increases probability of breaking through one's defences. When dual wielding, there is a chance to trigger 'Sword Break' during melee battle, giving a small probability to break the opponent's weapon. Note, additional effect is subject to restrictions due to Class difference].
Good stuff!
Chen Xiaolian let out a sigh.
At the end, it is stated that the additional effect is subject to restrictions due to Class difference. It meant that when facing weapons and equipment of a higher class, the additional effect would not trigger.
Even so, this is already good!
This scimitar is of the B Class. In other words, when using this weapon, there is the possibility of breaking armour that is of the B Class or below with one hit!
Because this is a dual wield weapon, if two of them are to be used at the same time, there will be a chance of directly breaking a weapon that is of the B Class or below during the course of a melee battle!
Although the matter of probability is dependent on the person… just imagine two person of the same level in the midst of PK, with their respective weapons seemingly to be of the same class [1]. However, what if one side could suddenly break the opposing side's weapon or their defensive armour…
Such a good weapon ended up being lost by the Pattern Man… just what kind of disaster did the Wind Slasher Guild encounter?
With the Snow Edge in his hand, Chen Xiaolian took a few more steps forward with Soo Soo…
Then, he saw an even more amazing scene!
A door like sword was pierced into the ground!
This was… a half broken sword!
Chen Xiaolian was even more familiar towards this item! Its owner should be Damon!
This gigantic sword, in addition to Damon's robust bodybuilder physique would allow him to transform himself at any moment into the incarnation of a savage path-clearing tank!
But now…
Chen Xiaolian narrowed his eyes as he looked at the broken sword.
Just what kind of calamity could it be that would lead to Damon's mighty weapon being broken here?
That explosion and flash earlier…
They continued taking several steps forward…
Chen Xiaolian suddenly stopped moving!
He saw a figure hanging upon the mountain walls. With a solemn face, he suddenly took a deep breath before squatting down. He lightly cupped Soo Soo's face and whispered. "Soo Soo, you need to stay here alone, do not go anywhere. Stay in this place and wait for me, all right?"
With an expression of fear, Soo Soo raised her head and looked up at the mountain walls…
A figure was swaying amidst the blowing winds.
It was a person!
Du Ya! That freak Du Ya!
This person's head was drooping downwards. Upon his chest was something resembling a spear, piercing through his body and directly nailing him onto the surface of the rocks!
He was evidently dead; however, his body remained swaying due to the winds!
"Do not look. Listen to me, do not look up."
Chen Xiaolian spoke out gently, his hands reaching out to cover Soo Soo's eyes. He then cupped her face and looked her in the eye.
"Look at me Soo Soo, look at me."
"Xiao, Xiaolian oppa…" Soo Soo was clearly trying her best to suppress the urge to cry, her little body trembling.
"Do not be afraid, do not be afraid," Chen Xiaolian rubbed her hair and whispered. "This is just a game, just a game. Do not be afraid, it will all end soon. After it ends, I will bring you home, all right? Wait for me here, I will go forward to take a look. After that, this game will end, all right?"
Soo Soo vigorously nodded her head.
This place is a leeward area. Chen Xiaolian made Soo Soo sit down and said softly. "Just sit here. No matter what you hear, do not move about. I will definitely come back for you. Do you trust me?"
"En!" Soo Soo nodded with all her strength.
Chen Xiaolian hugged her tight before standing up. He then turned and left while taking big strides!
This mountain passage was quickly nearing the end. Chen Xiaolian on the other hand, had been moving at an increasingly slower speed.
After reaching the end of the passage, he was greeted by brightness and clarity of sight. A flat square was laid out before his eyes.
The square appeared to be in a six-sided shape. The ground was paved with six-side shaped tiles, all of which were placed together seamlessly.
Around the square, several thick white pillars rose up. It was reminiscent of the palace of the Gods in the myths.
Chen Xiaolian caught sight of the Wind Slasher Guild members atop the square! A fierce battle was underway…
However, the thing that shocked Chen Xiaolian was the two fighting parties…
Newton was wielding two military combat knives in both hands as he madly launched an attack towards Pattern Man!
Pattern Man only had one scimitar in his hands. Under the snake-like assault of the combat knives, Pattern Man could only roll upon the ground while parrying continuously with his scimitar.
"Ding ding dang dang". A series of sparks was emitted from the collisions between the military combat knives and the scimitar!
Over half of the armour on Newton that screamed interstellar warfare had been cracked. An arrow shaft was piercing through his shoulder! Whenever he launched an attack, the shaft would quiver!
However, it did not hinder Newton's movements in the slightest! His attacks were both ferocious and vicious!
It was clear that Pattern Man's strength and speed was absolutely inferior! As for Newton, he kept stabbing both his military combat knives down towards Pattern Man's scimitar.
Pattern Man suddenly let out a loud roar; he exerted all his might to knock aside Newton's military combat knives using his scimitar. He then abruptly jumped up from the ground, being barely able to stand. However, Newton soared towards him, the military combat knives shooting out from his hands. Pattern Man was greatly startled and desperately tried to parry the attack!
Keng!
A fiery radiance burst out!
It appeared that the Sword Break effect of the scimitar had been triggered as the military combat knife was directly cut into two. However, Newton had already leapt upwards, his knee striking Pattern Man's chest!
Pattern Man gave a stifled groan and his body flew backwards. When he fell to the ground, the six-sided shaped tiles were cracked to pieces!
He watched helplessly as the other military combat knife in Newton's hand was turned downwards and was sent stabbing towards him like a poisonous snake…
Xiu!
Ding!
An arrow flew directly towards Newton's face. Newton abruptly twisted his head and used his military combat knife to knock it out of the way!
In a corner of the square, Sara was partly kneeling on the ground. Bereft of any strength, her hands let go of her longbow as she gasped for breath.
Chen Xiaolian came to realize that Sara's face was half covered in blood! The same could be said for the ancient looking leather armour on her body, which had been rendered into rags.
Beside her, Damon was leaning on a white pillar, being on the verge of death. A great chunk of the armour around his waist was torn and blood seeped out from his waist, turning the ground beneath him red.
The most critical part was… Damon's right arm from the tip to the top of his elbow had been cut off!
A strange light flashed through Newton's eyes. He gave up trying to kill Pattern Man, then turned and charged towards Sara!
With several jumps, he arrived before Sara. Sara gritted her teeth as she pulled out a dagger from her waist and stabbed forward. Newton easily gripped onto Sara's wrist, then he twisted…
Crack!
Sara gave out a muffled groan; her wrist had abruptly twisted into an odd angle.
Newton then grinned. A trace of cruelty burst forth from his eyes as he directed the military combat knife in his hand towards Sara's abdomen!
Sara shrieked miserably. Newton then loosened his grip on her wrist, and with one hand, he strangled Sara, lifting her up into the air!
"Go die!"
Newton howled.
Sara's body trembled. With her one and only moveable hand, she desperately tried to pry away Newton's fingers; blood seeping non-stop from her mouth and she spoke out with great difficulty.
"New, Newton… you, you crazy, crazy…"
Newton's fingers tightened and Sara was no longer able to make any sound. She could only listen on to the "ka ka" sounds emitting from her neck…
As Sara's eyes rolled upwards, the dying Damon who was lying on the pillar suddenly gave a roar. His body jumped up, slamming into Newton's figure and causing Newton to stagger.
Newton finally let go of Sara who fell on to the ground, coughing for life.
As for Newton, he had directed his cold gaze towards Damon who was gasping on the ground – the charge earlier had exhausted Damon of his last bit of strength.
Bending his waist, Newton squatted down.
Damon who was on the verge of death, looked at Newton. "Damn it, damn it… Newton! Quick, quickly snap out of it… we, we…"
Newton silently extended both his hands, enveloping Damon's neck. He then gently twisted…
Kacha!
Damon's eyes turned over, his final words never to leave his mouth. His head tilted to the side, his life snuffed.
"A a a!"
Sara uttered a sharp scream. "Newton! The Guild Leader will kill you! He will hack you into pieces!"
Newton turned around and stared at Sara. He grinned, revealing a white forest of teeth. He then panted as he spoke out in an indistinct voice. "Awake, Awakened, Awakened ones… all, all must die…"
"Bastard! I am not an Awakened! I, I am Sa, Sa…"
Sara desperately screamed out, but Newton had already rushed forward, his feet landing squarely onto Sara's chest! Several "ka ka" sounds could be heard from Sara's chest as her sternum cracked!
More blood spurted out from Sara's mouth as her breathing continually weakened, then… no more.
At this moment, Newton's body suddenly shook!
A cold flash of light flickered behind him, piercing straight into him from his back!
It was a scimitar!
Pattern Man was in a kneeling position over tens of metres away, gasping for breath. His body was still in the same posture that he had assumed to throw the scimitar – he had already used up all his strength, placing all of it into this one final blow!
The scimitar was buried into Newton's body from the back, causing Newton's body to turn stiff for a moment. He then forcibly shook a little and extended both his hands to his back. Grasping onto the hilt of the scimitar, he pulled with all his might!
A stream of blood sprayed out as the scimitar ended up in Newton's hand!
He then slowly strode towards the Pattern Man.
Pattern Man no longer have the strength to even stand up. He gritted his teeth, tears trickling down his face as he spat out a roar. "Newton! Newton! Quickly snap out of it! You are going to kill us all! You are going to kill all your team members! Bastard!"
Chen Xiaolian was squatted at the entrance to the square, his mouth opened wide as he witnessed everything that was happening with utter astonishment!
As he watched Newton slowly stepping towards Pattern Man, Chen Xiaolian was wondering what he should do when…
A hand came up from behind him and covered his mouth!
"Wu!"
Chen Xiaolian suddenly turned vigilant and he subconsciously threw a punch to his back.
The person behind him loosened his hand, but whispered out immediately. "Don't… fight, I am Han Bi!"
Chen Xiaolian turned around and saw Han Bi's familiar face, as well as his pair of brush like eyebrows.
Han Bi… his entire body was filled with blood!
"Don't, go over… Newton's gone mad, he will kill anyone he sees…"

GOR Chapter 28: Final Card
Chen Xiaolian quickly moved forward to prop up Han Bi. He looked at the wounds of various sizes on Han Bi's body. Who knows just how many blows he had taken to cause him to bleed so much…
Chen Xiaolian showed no hesitation. He immediately produced the last Mid Class Healing Beast Blood and shoved it into Han Bi's mouth.
"…Thank you," After swallowing, Han Bi stretched his neck and looked at Chen Xiaolian. "You… why did you come after us?"
"If I do not come after you, where am I supposed to go? Is there any exit here?" Chen Xiaolian smiled bitterly before turning nervous. "What exactly is going on?"
Han Bi pulled Chen Xiaolian and the two of them hid behind a pillar located at the entrance area of the square. He glanced at the square…
Newton madly rushed towards Pattern Man, delivering a kick at Pattern Man's chest. This time though, Pattern Man tightly hugged onto Newton's thigh. It seemed that Newton had not expected Pattern Man to unleash such a level of fighting spirit in the face of death and was caught off guard. His entire body was forced to roll down on the ground due to Pattern Man's hold and the two of them were tangled together… Newton wielded the scimitar in his hand and inflicted around four successive strikes at Pattern Man's body…
"I do not know the specifics either… in any case, after we had cleared the iron chain bridge, Newton suddenly went berserk. He seemingly turned delirious and took us for what he called 'Awakened ones'. He took action and killed Du Ya. After that, we fought while retreating all the way to here… he is too powerful. Even when all the other members of the Wind Slasher Guild teamed up, they were still unable to match him… his strength… is too horrifying!"
Han Bi whispered as he quickly narrated everything. Chen Xiaolian barely had enough time to digest everything when he heard a mournful howl coming from the square.
"Newton! Let us die together!"
Pattern Man had been, at an unknown moment pushed off by Newton and tossed into a corner. This time, he raised his head. The paint patterns on his face were respectively similar to that of a burning flame!
"Die… together!"
Pattern Man suddenly spread open both arms and shouted out loudly!
At that moment, the patterns on his face had seemingly come alive, transforming into strips of dancing golden snakes!
In an instant, numerous lightning bolts rose up energetically from his body and face. Lightning bolts flowed across one another as though they were a formless sword, which then transformed into a dense net. The net enveloped one fourth of the square area that Pattern Man and Newton was standing upon!
Chen Xiaolian could only exclaim in shock. "Damn, what kind of skill is this?"
Han Bi had already grabbed onto Chen Xiaolian and retreated. They hid behind a pillar. "Hide quickly!"
Boom!!
A series of loud noises rang out towards them with an intensity that nearly split their eardrums! The sound emitted by the interweaving electrical currents was incredibly loud! In addition, there was also the sound of the wind mixed in! Even with closed eyes, one could still feel the intense light that was seemingly about to pierce through the eyelids!
Chen Xiaolian and Han Bi had both hands around their heads, yet they were unable to block off the powerful light…
After a moment, Chen Xiaolian became worried. Would he end up becoming blind…
Countless electrical currents interweaved against one another, just like sword edges made of lightning bolts. These then slashed onto Newton's body! Newton let out a mad howl! Both his hands produced a mass of green radiance…
Instantly, a surge of light flowed through the surface of his body. With a flash, it transformed into an extraordinarily shaped armour! This armour was not made of metal and gave off a highly sci-fi feel. It has a streamlined shape and also seemingly to be without any opening! Bolts after bolts of electrical currents struck Newton's body but were all repelled by a circular green coloured light… as more electrical currents interlaced with one another, Newton held both hands up in a cross shape before his face…
The noise rumbled loudly, the wind blew with ferocious madness, the light shone with brilliant intensity… and the two figures were completely submerged…
Soo Soo wept; both her knees were knelt behind a rock. She was too fearful to raise her head because above her head, the terrifying person's corpse was hung upon the rocky mountain wall…
She bit down hard on her lips and tried her best to not let out any sounds of crying – even if Xiaolian oppa was not at her side at the moment, Soo Soo kept telling herself: I must be strong, I had promised Xiaolian oppa, I won't cry, I won't cry… I will be obedient…
It was at this moment that an intense mass of light exploded out from afar… it was then followed by a loud rumbling noise, which caused the underground valley area to shook severely…
It seemed as though something was crashing about upon the rocky walls… then, a huge amount of debris rolled down. Soo Soo only had enough time to utter a sharp scream before a stone struck her on her head, causing blood to flow out from her forehead.
At the same time…
On the rocks above her head, Du Ya's body was being blown by the stormy winds, causing it to sway about…
Pata!
It was unknown where it came out from, but a round metallic sphere dropped out from his body, possibly from his pocket and fell down the ground. It then rolled over to the side of Soo Soo's knees.
The blood dripping off the little girl's forehead coincidentally fell onto the metallic sphere…
Soo Soo suddenly heard a strange sound coming from before her…
Zi zi…
Lowering her head…
A sphere of light suddenly burst out! This light then enveloped Soo Soo's entire body… the little girl yelped out in surprise…
The force behind the criss-crossing electrical currents gradually faded…
The floor surface of the square was filled with interweaving charred marks!
The fiery like totem markings that was originally painted upon Pattern Man's face totally disappeared while he simply sat there. His body was held upright and yet appeared stiff; within his eyes that was directed upwards, there was only emptiness…
A gust of wind blew… Pattern Man fell onto the ground with the same straight body posture; his tightly clenched fists were finally released…
Ka!
Not far away, a humanoid shaped armour stood, a line of crack suddenly appearing on its surface.
Newton then shook his arms!
The entire armour then transformed into crushed powder! Newton panted and gave a cold stare at Pattern Man's corpse. After that, he opened his mouth, spat out a huge mouthful of blood, and staggered a little.
His body abruptly shook and he fell down with one knee and one hand resting on the ground. Blood flowed continuously from his mouth and onto the ground.
"We… what do we do?" Han Bi gritted his teeth. "Let us run!"
"Run my ass!" Chen Xiaolian smiled bitterly. "We have no place to retreat to, where could we run to!"
Chen Xiaolian gritted his teeth heavily. "If we want to live, we need to fight to the death!"
Han Bi smiled bitterly. "Fight to the death? You saw for yourself, all the expert members of the Wind Slasher Guild were beaten by him alone! We two noobs… what could we use to fight him to death?"
Pausing a moment, Han Bi's tone turned despondent. "I have already used up my skill… I do not even have any card to fight to the death with…"
"What does your skill do?"
"… a defensive type, it allows my body to turn into an armour of stone…" Han Bi let out a tart smile. "However, it could not even accept one hit from him. Earlier, you saw the wounds on my body – all he used was one hit."
"… we are about to go fight that son of a bitch to the death, can't you say something encouraging?" Chen Xiaolian spat out some spittle and stood up. "Han Bi, if I die… help me with something… ah, that is wrong. Never mind then."
Han Bi sat on the ground, blinking in confusion for a moment. "Why never mind? What do you want me to help you with?"
"It is all right," Chen Xiaolian gritted his teeth. He retrieved the Snow Edge and equipped it in his hand before coldly replying. There is neither a way up nor a door down here. If I were to die, he will definitely kill you as well. What is the point in entrusting you with it?"
After saying that, he wielded the scimitar and strode out from the back of the pillar!
"Come out! Garfield!"
Garfield turned into a beam of light and burst out of the system, its body immediately expanding into a Four-Eyed War Cat – however, his body still had many scars. After all, the interval between the earlier fight with the Black Widow was too short. Thus, Garfield was unable to heal from the wounds.
Despite that, Chen Xiaolian had already focused his attention on the kneeling Newton, the Snow Edge in his hand flashed out horizontally!
[Sword Skill, Linked Dual Slash, Cross Slash!]
A cross-shaped ray of light was sent forth!
"Newton! I am coming!"
Newton raised his head to see the cross-shaped ray of light flying towards him! It appeared that he was unable to exert any strength due to his injuries and was actually incapable to dodging this…
The cross-shaped ray of light plastered itself onto Newton's upper body! His figure was instantly thrown back!
At this time, Chen Xiaolian had arrived before him, the Snow Edge in his hand slashed down before Newton! Beside him, Garfield had utilized its Tiger Rush skill and its sharp claws flashed forward…
"Awakened ones! All must die!"
Newton suddenly roared out!
His firm body suddenly straightened up!
His hands came together to clasp onto the blade of Chen Xiaolian's Snow Edge! At the same time, he sent out a kick. A low growl could be heard as Garfield had its body sent flying!
Newton's face was a mask of savagery; his face and nose were covered with lines of bloody wounds! Those lines were none other than the marks left by the 'Cross Slash'!
Chen Xiaolian who had his Snow Edge grasped by Newton had a sudden foreboding!
Newton's strength was too shocking!
In the next moment, Newton abruptly moved to the side, closing the distance, then raised his elbow… his movements were as smooth as flowing water, as fast as lightning! Ruthless and straightforward!
As the elbow slammed down on Chen Xiaolian's chest, he could hear the sound of his bones breaking!
An intense pain rocked his chest and he flew out as well!
After falling to the ground, Chen Xiaolian felt a burning pain raging in his chest. He felt incapable of taking any breath, as though there was a huge rock pressing down on his chest!
It was at this moment that Han Bi finally charged out.
Although Han Bi had taken the Mid Class Healing Beast Blood, the amount of time passed was too short and the injuries on his body could not properly heal.
However, after hearing Chen Xiaolian's final words "if I were to die, he will definitely kill you as well", he understood.
This was a place with no retreat, not fighting to the death would equate to death!
As Han Bi pounced over, his hand had already activated the light sabre. It stabbed down viciously towards Newton's back!
Newton did not even bother turning around. He simply performed a back kick, which landed squarely onto Han Bi's shoulders. Han Bi cried out in pain as his light sabre was sent flying off and his figure fell onto the ground.
"Weak… Awakened!"
Newton turned around and gave Han Bi a cold gaze.
At the same time, Garfield's figure charged forward. With a side charge, it successfully pinned Newton onto the ground! Newton coughed out blood once more. After that however, he sent out a fist that struck Garfield in its abdomen!
The pitiful fat cat cried out in misery. Newton then forcibly shoved it off, grabbing Garfield by its neck and lifting up its massive body.
Then, he executed a standard downward throw…
Boom!
A huge hole was formed from the shock wave! The fat cat lay within the hole, its body rapidly shrinking into its tiny Adorable Form…
"Awakened ones… must, must kill… must kill them all!"
Newton gasped for breath.
At present, Chen Xiaolian had already stood up. He used the scimitar to support his quivering figure.
He exerted all his strength to push the scimitar against the ground, doing his best to straighten his knee that was resting upon the ground.
"Son of a bitch… thankfully it was not used when fighting the Black Widow… my final card, please do not let me down…" Chen Xiaolian muttered even as he vomited blood.
"Goddess… of Dawn!"

GOR Chapter 29: Not Over Yet!
Exclusive Skill: Goddess of Dawn!
Chen Xiaolian forced himself to stand straight. Once the skill was launched, a sphere of light suddenly appeared in the middle of the air right behind him. From amidst the sphere of light, a translucent figure rapidly appeared.
A silhouette that resembled an ancient Goddess from the West emerged. This Goddess was shrouded in a layer of semi-sheer cloak. Beneath the cloak, what appeared to be an ancient type of armour could be seen.
It did not conform to the image that he had in his mind, the image of a royal Highness. This was shockingly an illustrious Martial Goddess.
The silhouette boasted a long silver white hair that seemed to be dancing within the sphere of light. Her right hand was holding on to a sword while her left was holding a treasure bottle. The mouth of the bottle was tilted and a radiant light poured out from the mouth of the bottle!
[Prompt, Goddess of Dawn skill launched, skill level LV1. Launch sub-skill: Overwhelming Sunlight Purification. Utilize the host's personal attributes, combusting and purifying it with rays of light to become an overwhelming sunlight attack. The power of this skill is determined by the level of personal attributes that the host possesses. Once this skill is launched, its effect cannot be reversed and the attribute values purified cannot be restored.]
When this prompt appeared before his eyes and was immediately processed by his mind, Chen Xiaolian became dumbfounded.
Combustion of attributes? Become offensive power? Attributes cannot be restored?
Damn it!
This is the equivalent of the Great Art of Demonic Dissolution! [1]
Seeing Newton coming closer with each step, Chen Xiaolian's heart gave a "heng": Go all out!
"Combust it! Combust it all!"
Chen Xiaolian howled out loudly!
Instantly, he could feel every ounce of strength in his body being pulled towards a torrential stream, all of it was being extracted uncontrollably out of him!
Upon the setting interface, his personal attributes, Physique, Endurance, Agility… and so on, the original alphabet at the end begun changing with frenzy, reducing at a rapid rate… finally turning into a '?' mark.
A powerful sense of weakness washed through his entire body, causing Chen Xiaolian's body to turn limp. He fell with a "plop", one knee resting upon the ground…
At the same time…
The Martial Goddess of Dawn floating in the middle of the air behind him lifted up the treasure bottle, the mouth of the bottle pointing towards Newton.
In a flash, the Goddess of Dawn's treasure bottle inclined and the radiant beam of light from the mouth of the bottle immediately enveloped Newton's body!
This radiant beam, appeared to be an intense sun light!
This is… Overwhelming Sunlight attack?
Chen Xiaolian was unable to keep his eyes off this intense light…
He could only hear a loud boom as the radiant beam violently sent Newton flying backwards! Newton's body slammed onto the ground, causing the stone tiles to jump up. He was continuously blasted backwards. Wherever he went, a deep gully would be left in the attack's wake!
Savage flames overwhelmed Newton's body. His hair and clothes were seemingly burnt away by the overwhelming sunlight! Newton roared out manically and produced the green mass of light from his body again, seemingly with the intention of resisting.
However, the powerful 'Overwhelming Sunlight' rapidly crushed the flimsy green light, disintegrating and dissolving it…
Upon Newton's body, blood was flowing out from his numerous sweat pores, eyes, ears, nose, mouth…
His blood was forced out under the intense pressure of the attack. He finally let out a mad roar before his body began to emit successive sounds of "bo bo bo bo"!
His body itself had begun to collapse under the Overwhelming Sunlight's power!
His entire left hand, with the fingertips as the starting point, started turning into fine powder. It was followed by his knuckles, palm… wrist…
Newton began howling again, the skin and flesh on his face and body also began turning into powder! This was especially true for his face; the muscles on his cheeks were turned into powder, revealing the horrifying image of his bare jaw!
His face transformed into a grim and terrifying image!
It seemed that Newton was still roaring; however, with his tongue gone, the sound made became obscure.
Despite all that… he still managed to climb up. Then, step by step, he moved towards Chen Xiaolian!
He took on the brunt of the Overwhelming Sunlight's brilliant rays and moved forwards, one step at a time!
The flesh and skin upon the surface of Newton's right hand sloughed off, turning into powder. With the surface flesh and skin removed, the white bones inside could be seen!
Within Newton's pair of eyes, there seemed to be a faint spark of fire that was focused onto Chen Xiaolian!
The weakened Chen Xiaolian was unable to lift up even a finger.
All he could do was exert himself to push the scimitar down against the ground.
On his personal interface…
Physique, Endurance, Agility… all the values had become: E.
This value is the lowest value possible, one that signified a critical low point.
At present, Newton had already reached Chen Xiaolian's front!
Chen Xiaolian looked at Newton… he knew all too well that he had given his all.
Goddess of Dawn… Overwhelming Sunlight Purification… this skill could indeed be considered a very Heavenly defying skill.
Combusting all personal attributes into power, transforming it into a final attack…
However, his biggest flaw was…
As a newbie, his comprehensive strength was just too weak.
Thus, this attack born of the combustion of attributes was unable to directly give Newton the KO.
Newton was no longer capable of speech… Overwhelming Sunlight's radiance began fading before disappearing… behind Chen Xiaolian, the Goddess of Dawn's silhouette also gradually disappeared into the light…
"Is it already over?" Chen Xiaolian muttered bitterly. "Looks like… it still was not enough…"
He raised his eyes to look at Newton who had almost turned into a skeleton.
Newton's left arm had been disintegrated, however his right arm remained, even though it was only bones.
Unexpectedly, his arm of bones was still holding onto a scimitar, the Snow Edge!
Chen Xiaolian did not even possess the strength to move his fingers. He could only watch as Newton brandished the Snow Edge, directing it towards his chest, then… pierce in!
… so cold!
Feeling the cold blade pierce through his flesh, Chen Xiaolian was momentarily given the false impression that his awareness and life were both flowing away at a rapid rate …
He laughed bitterly as he looked at Newton. Slowly, he then closed his eyes.
Oh well… I, did my best.
Boom!
An orange fireball roared forward; a tyrannical fire dragon slammed directly onto Newton's body!
Chen Xiaolian opened his eyes in surprise. He looked at Newton, then he used all his might to turn his head…
Not far away to his left was a tiny, trembling figure.
Soo Soo's face was filled with tears as she cried; she had both her hands lifted up with great effort… her entire body, from top to bottom was emitting raging orange flames. Atop her head, a flaming phoenix was spiralling about, giving out a resonant cry…
"Go, go away!"
Newton's body flew into the air from the side. When he fell on the ground, he… broke apart!
Taking on the 'Overwhelming Sunlight Purification' attack, his body had already been mostly pulverized. Finally, under this fire dragon's offensive…
His skeletal frame finally collapsed!
The bones of his right hands cracked and the Snow Edge dropped to the ground. The sounds of cracking soon spread out to his arms, shoulders, chest…
A series of "ka ka" sounds rang out and the entire body cracked apart! It turned into a lump of powder that lay upon the ground!
Chen Xiaolian stared blankly.
The same was true of Han Bi who was lying on the ground far away.
Soo Soo watched Newton turn into a lump of powder and then broke out in tears. The orange coloured flames upon her body dispersed. She then cast a glance at Chen Xiaolian, her lips trembling and her entire face seemed to be filled with fear and dread. She lightly called out. "Xiaolian oppa…"
After that, the little girl's body tilted. With a plop, she fainted.
Chen Xiaolian was momentarily stunned. He then struggled to crawl forward; however, just after around two steps, an intense pain wracked him in his chest area.
Snow Edge was pierced into his chest and his blood flowed all over the ground.
"Does this count as… everyone dying together?" Chen Xiaolian helplessly let out a bitter laugh. "Is this the end? This is a really resentful ending…"
Han Bi laid down there without the strength to move at all. Suddenly, he exerted whatever strength he had left within his body to curse out. "Chen Xiaolian! If there is a next life, do not leave your novels without updating them anymore!"
The both of them looked at one another. Within both their gazes, traces of despair could be seen.
Suddenly, a ball of faint green light that resembled a ghostly flame floated out from Newton's powdery remains. Then, in the middle of the air, it condensed into a very small ball of light!
"There are a few more toys left? Heng… the game is not over yet!"
This voice resonated clearly into both Chen Xiaolian and Han Bi's ears.

GOR Chapter 30: Guardian
The green ball of light contorted several times and the outline of something that resembled a human face emerged.
However, the human face rapidly disappeared as the ball of light continued contorting and it became a monster.
The head of a crow, the body of a human.
When Chen Xiaolian saw the shape it took, he froze for a moment. He then coughed out with exertion and laughed out bitterly. "As expected… as expected, I got it right again."
"What did you get right?" The crow headed monster asked.
"You are a Guardian," Chen Xiaolian wiped his bloodied mouth. He could feel his strength diminishing and his body becoming increasingly colder. He shivered a little before slowly continuing. "A Guardian… and also… one of King Solomon's 72 Demons, right?"
The crow headed Guardian issued out a "jie jie" sound of laughter. The ball of light then drifted before Chen Xiaolian's face. "You got it right. Unfortunately, you are on death's door. What is the point in that?"
Chen Xiaolian blinked, then he suddenly took on a peculiar tone of voice. "Correct, I am about to die, I am losing too much blood and my injuries are too serious… But since I am dying anyways, why did you have to appear and spout all these nonsense with me?"
The Guardian seemed momentarily stunned.
"Thus… I surmise that you must have a purpose, right?" Chen Xiaolian continued. "Could it be… all of us dying here is not what you have in mind?"
He had caught on to a crucial detail!
And this crucial detail is: Since all 'Players' are dead, why would a Guardian show itself at the last moment? Could it be trying to fulfil the traditional stereotype image of a villain by appearing to spout off a few nonsensical lines?
"…" The Guardian fixed its pair of crow eyes upon Chen Xiaolian for a moment. It then flicked its fingers.
With a snapping sound, a ball of green light landed on Chen Xiaolian's chest.
Chen Xiaolian's chest had Snow Edge piercing right through it. However, after being struck by the green ball of light, Snow Edge was seemingly pulled out by some type of force!
In addition, the green ball of light made it so that the wound on his chest did not bleed out at all!
"Just stopping the bleeding for you," The Guardian laughed coldly.
Chen Xiaolian coughed out twice, his face set in a sneer – in his heart, he knew that he had won the bet once again.
The Guardian said with indifference. "Ever since all of you entered this cave, I have been watching all of you, each and every one… your every team, all of them were within my watchful eyes. As for you, you happen to be a candidate of interest for me."
"Oh?"
"Although you are very weak, you are the one who found the 'Passage of Death' in the Hexagram Hall. The few people who manage to reach this place only did so by relying on your wisdom to find the correct path."
Hearing that, Chen Xiaolian smiled with resentment. "The correct path? It is indeed correct. The Passage of Death… what a fitting name. As of now, they have truly died here."
Chen Xiaolian narrowed his eyes and stared at the crow headed monster before speaking out slowly. "You used some method to confuse Newton's mind, causing him to start a massacre, killing off his own team mates… en, that is right. Back then, he assumed everyone to be Awakened ones… the reason for that, I heard that he had once fallen in love with an Awakened… in the end, he personally killed the one he loved.
That being said, I do not know the specifics. I do not even understand what an Awakened is.
However, I suspect… an experience like this would certainly end up becoming a mental issue for Newton.
A more general description of it would be that it had become a demon in his heart. And you must have taken advantage of this factor, confusing his mind!
You can pry open the secrets of the heart… this meant that, as a demon, you possess the mind-reading ability.
I believe… the 72 Demons; each of these Demons would have its own special abilities.
En, the ability to read the mind of others, the name of this ability is 'Astute Comprehension'.
As for the ability that could cause teammates to kill one another, the name of that ability is 'Falling Out'.
And so…"
Chen Xiaolian's expression flickered. "If I am not mistaken, there happen to be one amongst the 72 Demons with the same specifications as you. That is why… you are the one ranked seventh among the 72 Demons, Marquis of the Blaze. Your name is… Marquis Amon!"
The Guardian fixed its pair of crow eyes at Chen Xiaolian. After a while, he nodded his head. "Very good, it seems you really do have some understanding of us."
"All right, we have been spouting enough nonsense, time to add spice to the topic." Chen Xiaolian slowly continued. "You did not kill me, rather you were unwilling to see me die and helped me to stop my bleeding… in the end, what is it that you want?"
Peng!
A metal rod landed before Chen Xiaolian.
"In this square, there are a total of 72 pillars," Amon's voice seemed laced with traces of ferocity. "One of them has sealed my core spirit."
"En, and then what?" Chen Xiaolian curled his lips in a grin. "Could it be that you want me to find it, then release you?"
Amon slowly nodded his head.
"I am not going to ask you why you cannot do it yourself. Considering the fact that you are sealed here, there must be some kind of prohibition that stops you from doing so yourself," Chen Xiaolian gave a bitter smile. "How is the seal lifted? By using this rod to break the pillar?"
"You only have one chance. This rod could only break one pillar. If you choose the wrong one, then… this place will completely collapse."
"It is not… wait, what do you mean… choose the wrong one?" Chen Xiaolian's eyes suddenly bulged out. "You own seal… your own… you are telling me you do not even know which pillar to break?"
Amon shook his head. "I do not know."
Chen Xiaolian became dumbfounded.
He turned and looked around. Within this square were tens of those pillars!
All of them looked completely identical!
Probability of success was one out of tens, it was necessary for him to find and break the correct one on his first try… if he made the wrong choice, then this cave will collapse and… everyone will be buried alive…
Chen Xiaolian picked up the metal rod and appraised it for a while… the rod was covered with patterns of indeterminable significance.
"Are there no tips?"
"There is only one," Amon slowly replied. "I need to personally touch the pillar, then my spirit will give off a reaction."
"Personally… touch?"
Chen Xiaolian looked at Amon… his body was a mass of illusory green light. It was clear that he did not have a real body.
Then… personally touch?
Chen Xiaolian's heart suddenly palpitated. "You… you can't be thinking of…"
"I need to borrow your body," Amon grinned, uttering his "jie jie" laugh. "I had previously chosen the one called Newton. Unfortunately, he was killed by you all. Thus…"
Chen Xiaolian's face changed, he abruptly pounced towards the ground and grabbed Snow Edge! With a backhand, he directed it towards the sphere of green light that was Amon!
The scimitar's edge swung through Amon's body of light. However, Amon only let out a contemptuous sneer!
"Fool! I am a spiritual body, how can you hurt me?"
After his scimitar swept through empty air, Chen Xiaolian's eyes flashed with determination. He reversed the blade to cut towards his own neck!
This senior would rather die than allow my body to be taken over!
Pu!
The scimitar landed upon his neck, but a mass of green light lightly bounced off the scimitar!
Chen Xiaolian plopped down onto the ground. His arms became weak, bereft of energy.
After all, he just had all his attributes purified. As of now, his Physique and Endurance were at the critical low point of E.
"It is useless," Amon sneered. "If I do not want you to die, I have methods to ensure that. Besides… even if you die, there are three people here… your fellow friend here, the little girl who released the fire phoenix… oh, I nearly forgot, there is also the woman at the cliff of the other side of the iron chain bridge. Even if you end up dying, I can still choose someone else."
Chen Xiaolian smiled resentfully. "If that is the case, why did you not let me commit suicide…"
"Unless as a last resort, I do not want to possess a woman," Amon shook his head and sighed. He then cast a glance at Han Bi. "As for this fellow… his looks is too ugly."
"Hey! Who are you calling ugly!" Han Bi coughed out violently to the point of spitting out blood. Still, he could not help but shout. "I can be killed but never humiliated! This senior will fight you to the death!"
Han Bi moved his hands and legs in an attempt to get up. However, Amon only let out a sneer as he continued standing at the same spot.
Chen Xiaolian moved over to help support Han Bi. Then, he turned his head to look at Amon. "So, you want me to offer my body as contribution?"
"Even though your strength is weak, it is at least stronger than the other three who are alive. In addition, that sunlight magic you used at the end against Newton seemed very good. Thus… I have decided to make your body mine. As for the fellow beside you… I saw his magic before, he actually turned himself into stone. That magic would only allow oneself to be beaten senseless. If I were to possess his body, that would be an insult to a demon's intellect."
Amon shook his head and sneered. "After my core spirit is released, I will need a suitable body for long-term use. The suitability of this body is very important for me before I fully recover my strength. You are quite good… that is why I chose you."
"When you put it that way, I should actually feel honoured?" A strange look flashed through Chen Xiaolian's face. He then let out a derisive smile. "It seems I have no other choice. In that case, bring it on!"
He threw the Snow Edge within his hand onto the ground – unexpectedly, it happened to fall onto the ground beneath Han Bi.
Han Bi had wanted to say something; but when he turned to look at Chen Xiaolian, he saw Chen Xiaolian throwing a cue at him, looking down at the Snow Edge that fell down.
Without waiting for Han Bi to understand, Chen Xiaolian turned back to look at Amon.
"Then bring it on, since I cannot resist…" Chen Xiaolian smiled bitterly. "How unexpected… today had been a truly remarkable one."
Having said that, he closed his eyes.
Amon laughed out with his "jie jie" as his body transformed into a ball of green light which slowly entered Chen Xiaolian's body.
Chen Xiaolian felt a chill through his body, as though a stream of icy water had been injected into his blood stream. Soon, it flowed through his entire body…

GOR Chapter 31: Quest Complete
It was not as he had imagined. The feeling of his consciousness being deprived did not occur.
Rather, it was as though he had become drunk. His mind turned faint and blurry and his body reaction became slow. Chen Xiaolian was barely able to stand up. However, after taking just one step, he felt himself tilting.
"This, what is going on?"
Chen Xiaolian muttered.
Then, he heard his own mouth uttering another sentence. "Stop talking nonsense. Move forward and find the pillar."
At this moment, Chen Xiaolian felt extremely fragile. It was as though he was drunk and his mind was increasingly drowsy, about to fall asleep at any moment. However, a trace of consciousness remained within him. He gritted his teeth tightly to maintain the last vestige of his consciousness!
Apparently… even when taking over another's body, this Amon was unable to instantly devour his consciousness. Some amount of time was required to complete this process.
Probably… because his core spirit had been sealed, this Guardian spirit who is on the outside could only utilize a small fraction of its power.
At that moment, Chen Xiaolian's heart pounded. Perhaps… he is not as powerful as I imagined!
Both his hands came in contact with one of the stone pillars, but the cold stone pillar showed no reaction.
Chen Xiaolian forcibly shook his head and heard a strange voice coming out from his own mouth. "Go to the next pillar, hurry up!"
Chen Xiaolian looked at his own legs as it stepped forward… this time, he almost lost control of both his legs. Although their movements were a little tilted, it was obviously more coordinated compared to earlier.
This was a bad sign.
Clearly, Amon was gradually gaining control over his body. As for his own consciousness, it was becoming increasingly incapable of controlling his body.
Perhaps… it was about to be completely devoured.
"Stop resisting," Chen Xiaolian seemed to be talking to himself. Although it was his own voice, the tone obviously belonged to Amon. "The more you resist, the more you provoke me. If you obey me, then I can consider sparing your three companions."
"Really?" Chen Xiaolian laughed bitterly. He struggled to raise his hand, extending it towards one of the nearest pillar.
His cooperative attitude seemed to be satisfying Amon. Unfortunately, this pillar also did not give any reaction.
Finally, after they have checked more than ten pillars…
When Chen Xiaolian came in contact with one of the pillars, he suddenly felt a sense of iciness! A trace of coldness spread out from the pillar, seemingly spreading through his hand and arm. In an instant, it had penetrated deep into his soul, causing him to shiver uncontrollably.
"It is here!"
Amon's shout of joy emanated out from Chen Xiaolian's mouth. "Hurry! The rod!"
Chen Xiaolian turned his head and spoke resentfully towards Han Bi. "Bring the rod over."
Han Bi was momentarily stunned; he had seen that cue from Chen Xiaolian's face again.
Han Bi noted that Chen Xiaolian's gaze was directed upon Snow Edge for a moment. Even though it was only a moment, it did not go unnoticed by Han Bi.
Han Bi struggled for a moment. He crawled as he picked up Snow Edge, then the metal rod before moving towards Chen Xiaolian. As he handed the metal rod to Chen Xiaolian, Chen Xiaolian could feel that he could no longer control his own hands – Amon had already gained control over them.
The metal rod was lifted up, then…
It lightly tapped the stone pillar.
Suddenly, a green radiance shone out! The green radiance burst out of the stone pillar and enveloped Chen Xiaolian. After that, a clear cracking sound…
Like a glass that was smashed to pieces, a crack appeared on the surface of the stone pillar and extended rapidly…
Bang!
As the stone pillar collapsed, Chen Xiaolian gaped at the countless green lights that entered his body at an insane rate!
"Life! The feeling of life! This is the feeling of a fresh new life!"
Chen Xiaolian raised his head and opened his mouth to let out a loud laugh. Amon's shrill voice was channelled out as laughter using Chen Xiaolian's mouth. "I am alive! I am finally alive again! The taste of that detestable and damnable stone is finally cast far away from me! Hahahaha! This fresh new life, this flesh… these blood vessels, this palpitating heart! Hahahahahahaha! I am finally alive again!"
Chen Xiaolian's consciousness gradually weakened, he could feel his control over his body diminishing. It was as though he could barely sense his whole body anymore!
A chilling flow instantly occupied several positions within his own body, leading to a loss of perception there.
"Are you… satisfied?" Chen Xiaolian bit his lips.
"Hahahaha! I am very satisfied," Amon gave a triumphant and joyous laughter.
"Satisfied? In that case…" Chen Xiaolian suddenly took a deep breath – one of the last few movements that he was capable of at this moment. "… then… die!"
At that moment, Chen Xiaolian suddenly gathered up the remnants of his consciousness with fervour. In that instant, he managed to seize back control of one of his legs. He then vigorously moved it to let him fall towards Han Bi's location!
"Han Bi! Kill me!"
Han Bi was shocked; he instinctively raised up the Snow Edge in his hand…
Chen Xiaolian directed his body to charge straight towards the scimitar!
Amon shrieked out. "What are you doing?"
Chen Xiaolian's body twisted itself, seemingly trying to stand straight. However, under the directions of two consciousness, the body continued moving towards the scimitar!
Ca!
Chen Xiaolian witnessed with his own eyes… as his own right wrist fell upon the scimitar's blade! The momentum of his body in addition to the sharpness of Snow Edge caused his right wrist to be instantly cut off!
With a "bang", Chen Xiaolian fell heavily onto the ground!
Amon miserably screamed out in pain!
What an absurd feeling.
It was clear that his own hand had been cut off, it was also clear that his own mouth had screamed out in misery… yet, Chen Xiaolian's consciousness was unable to feel any shred of pain.
Not being able to do anything more, Chen Xiaolian shouted out. "Han Bi! Act quickly! Kill me! He can no longer leave my body!"
Han Bi abruptly woke up. He gave Chen Xiaolian a deep stare… he could see that Chen Xiaolian's eyes were filled with absolute determination!
Han Bi raised his hand and slashed down!
Ding!
Chen Xiaolian's body acted by lifting the metal rod to block off Han Bi's slash!
Amon screamed in horror. "This is wrong! This is wrong! Why is your body so weak?"
Although Chen Xiaolian's consciousness was becoming increasingly faint, he laughed out. "You fool… all my attributes have been combusted and purified… the current me, my current body's strength is no better than that of a dying patient. Han Bi! What are you waiting for! Kill me! This instance dungeon can be completed! Kill the Guardian!"
Han Bi's face was flowing with tears. He raised the scimitar with both his hands and shouted. "I am sorry! Chen Xiaolian!"
The bright edge of the Snow Edge swept down!
Amon struggled for life, attempting to lift the metal rod to block it off…
Unfortunately, the strength of Chen Xiaolian's body was simply… too weak!
All his attribute points have been combusted to become the Goddess of Dawn's Overwhelming Sunlight attack… although the current Chen Xiaolian seemed normal, the truth was his Physique, Endurance and Agility… all of his attributes have plummeted to the lowest of the low!
Seeing the descending scimitar, Amon howled loudly and sent out a green light… he was attempting to break away from Chen Xiaolian's body…
However, the green coloured light was only able to partially fly out. It appeared that a certain force was pulling it back, leading to its inability to free itself from Chen Xiaolian's body!
Chen Xiaolian… won his bet yet again!
Back then, Amon was able to possess and confuse Newton, leading to an uphill battle in which they finally killed Newton. However, due to the nature of his spiritual body, Amon was able to break away…
Now though, Chen Xiaolian had unsealed Amon's core spirit, allowing Amon to resurrect himself within Chen Xiaolian's body…
This resurrection meant that Amon is no longer a spiritual body… he is no longer an unkillable entity!
That meant… Amon could now be killed!
As for Amon… his biggest mistake was… to choose Chen Xiaolian's body to take over.
Chen Xiaolian had utilized the Goddess of Dawn's Overwhelming Sunlight Purification skill, combusting all his attributes away!
Thus, at that moment Chen Xiaolian was even weaker than the seriously injured Han Bi!
Han Bi's scimitar viciously slashed onto Chen Xiaolian's chest!
Followed by… a horizontal slash…
After spurting out a spray of blood, Chen Xiaolian slumped onto the ground and looked blankly at the scimitar blade stuck on his chest.
This slash… was absolutely fatal!
Chen Xiaolian's face broke into a mournful smile. "Good… good blade, one, one more slash!"
Amon shrieked out miserably as he attempted to emit more green light. He tried to seal the wound and blood flow… unfortunately…
As mentioned before, he is no longer an unkillable entity!
Or perhaps it would be more accurate to say that Chen Xiaolian is not unkillable!
Han Bi extracted the scimitar and waved it forward again!
This time, the scimitar drew a mark across his neck…
Chen Xiaolian could hear the sounds of "chi chi"… followed by a spray of blood leaking out from his windpipe!
His mouth was opened as Amon seemed to be attempting to shout something. However, with his neck cut off, he could only emit the sounds of "ge ge".
Chen Xiaolian's consciousness looked towards Han Bi; traces of tranquillity and delight flickering out from his eyes.
Han Bi's grip loosened and the scimitar was thrown onto the ground. He then knelt down.
"Xiaolian, I am sorry!"
Chen Xiaolian could sense he was beginning to slowly feel pain again… it appeared that Amon's soul was losing its strength as it died… slowly fading away…
His ability to sense his own body gradually returned…
His body fell down face first, his one good hand gave Han Bi the thumbs up…
Plop!
Chen Xiaolian's face fell onto the ground.
Han Bi watched as a green light rapidly flowed out of Chen Xiaolian's body before dissipating in the air…
Suddenly, he felt the ground underneath shaking!
Han Bi raised his head upwards to see a silver screen of light descending from the ceiling… just like… a curtain had been spread down on them… the entire square and underground valley… they were all enveloped within it.
Han Bi was shocked to observe that once the curtain of light had reached a certain altitude, some of the stone pillars crown area that had been broken would be rapidly repaired.
Han Bi suddenly found that his body was feeling cold.
Lowering his head, he saw both his hands and arms… rapidly disappearing!
On a flat area of the cliff, Takashimoto Shizuka was in a kneeling position. She stared foolishly into the distance, her eyes blank.
From above her head, the silver curtain of light descended. However, she did not appear to notice at all, as she continued staring ahead foolishly.
There was only darkness before the eyes.
The remaining scene resembled a screen that was about to receive a transmission broadcast from the station but had its switch suddenly flipped. The screen flashed and all that was left was utter darkness…
Chen Xiaolian could sense his consciousness becoming increasingly faint and weak…
At that moment…
A tiny dot of light suddenly flashed out from within the darkness.
"….. Prompt, Instance Dungeon Quest Complete, Guardian is dead, Instance Dungeon Reward acquired."
"… Instance Dungeon refresh launched…"
The prompt disappeared… next, the only thing within his line of sight was that blinking '.'(dot).

GOR Chapter 32: Fantasy Or Reality?
"Argh!"
Chen Xiaolian suddenly let out a cry of shock as he violently jumped out of his seat!
He was covered from head to toe in cold sweat. After waking up, he remained in a lying position on the First Class seat. He looked around in panic as his chest pounded with severe intensity, causing him to gasp for breath!
A soft voice belonging to a flight attendant issued out from the broadcast speakers:
"Dear passengers, please note that this flight is about to reach its destination…"
His heart continued palpitating in frenzy!
Chen Xiaolian examined his surroundings like a frightened beast…
In the front row of passenger seats, one of the passengers was in the midst of reclining the seat.
Turning back, he could see the economy cabin. There, no small amount of tourists was packing up their items that were laid upon a small table plank.
Beside him…
Soo Soo yawned and removed the rabbit shaped ear phones fixed upon her ears – when she became aware that Chen Xiaolian was gazing at her, she became frightened. She shrunk her head backwards and turned around to look out the window.
"Mr, do you need anything?"
A voice came from beside him.
Chen Xiaolian quickly turned and saw Sara standing right beside him.
There was no bow or leather on her body… instead, she wore the standard blue coloured flight attendant uniform with a scarf across her neck.
Sara gave a well-mannered and professional smile while pointing at a cup placed before Chen Xiaolian – it was the cup of leftover beer.
"No, I do not need it anymore…" Chen Xiaolian subconsciously uttered.
Sara extended her hand towards the cup. This action from her caused Chen Xiaolian to reflexively recoil backwards in an instant…
Moments later, the plane began its descent…
The landing process for the plane was very smooth, but Chen Xiaolian restlessly looked around…
"Could it be… just a dream?"
His mind began to waver, once it began wavering, it began doubting, then more and more thoughts popped out to occupy his mind.
That… that is right…
It was a dream, right?
En, that must be it! I just had a nightmare!
En, no doubt about it. How could there be such a magical occurrence in this world!
That is right! It must have been a dream! I must have written too many novels, resulting in me having such a ridiculous dream.
Hahahaha! This dream is so peculiar, oh right! I will write it down once I get back, perhaps it can be used in my novels…
The smile on Chen Xiaolian's face was extremely contrived. His mouth was parched and his heart was racing, yet he continued to desperately comfort himself…
Finally, the plane smoothly finished its landing on the airport runway. After sliding for a few moments, it finally halted.
Sara, the crew chief used the broadcast speakers to inform the passengers of their arrival and politely bade them goodbye.
Chen Xiaolian through, remained seated on his seat… he did not move.
He had originally managed to pacify his body… however… his face suddenly turned taut!
To his back, on the left hand side… sitting on another passenger seat… was someone whose face he recognized!
"Pattern Man?"
At present, his face was not painted with totem patterns. However, his appearance was one that Chen Xiaolian could clearly recognize!
Instantly, both his hands and feet turned cold and bereft of energy!
The aircraft had stopped at the airport apron and the door to the passenger compartment was opened.
Chen Xiaolian did not immediately rise up to leave. Instead, he blankly stared at the passengers passing through his side as they moved to the exit…
Among these passengers, he saw many 'familiar' faces.
Carrying a leather business bag and dressed like a businessperson, Du Ya was also sporting a gold-rimmed set of glasses.
Wearing a sports jacket, Damon was carrying a mountain climbing bag.
There were also…
When Chen Xiaolian finally saw Han Bi among the crowd of people…
Chen Xiaolian felt his heart missing a beat!
He gaped as he stared a Han Bi who was moving beside a skinny woman. Oh, she is one of the newbies who died. They moved pass him and exited the passenger compartment.
One minute ticked by before Chen Xiaolian made any reaction!
"No! I need evidence! I need evidence! This is a dream! It must be a dream… but, if it was a dream… then, the ones I met in the dream: Du Ya, Damon, Pattern Man, how could I end up seeing them in the plane? When I was boarding the place, I had clearly not seen them before! In addition…
There is also Han Bi! That is right! Han Bi is the important factor! He is my reader! He had read my novels! I… he had even informed me of his residence and school… I need to get an answer from him!"
Chen Xiaolian suddenly jumped up and grabbed his backpack before rushing out of the passenger compartment.
At the passenger compartments door area, he accidentally bumped into a flight attendant. He raised his head and subconsciously said "I am sorry".
But then he saw that the other person is… Takashimoto Shizuka!
Chen Xiaolian acted as though he had seen a ghost. He frantically turned and ran out of the door.
After rushing out of the passageway, Chen Xiaolian searched with frenzy for Han Bi's figure amongst the crowds of people. However, he failed to find him… at the current, the amount of passenger traffic within the airport arrival hall was extremely high.
Chen Xiaolian turned around within the hall for several minutes, but he could not catch a glimpse of Han Bi at all…
Despite having an incalculable amount of doubts in his mind, he adjusted his luggage and moved out through the exit…
A light drizzle was floating down the skies. Chen Xiaolian felt the cool raindrops falling down onto his face.
This clear feeling instead caused a dream-like feeling of fantasy in his heart.
In the end… all those, are they real? Are they fake? Are they a dream?
As he was walking out of the airport hall, he suddenly saw a small figure wearing bunny earphones beside the road. A small trolley case was resting by her side.
It was Soo Soo!
He quickly rushed towards Soo Soo!
After rushing to Soo Soo's side, Chen Xiaolian squatted down and looked at Soo Soo. He stammered. "You, you, do you recognize me? Soo Soo?"
Soo Soo stared at the youngster before her with wide-open eyes. She appeared to be afraid and desperately moved backwards… Her eyes suddenly glanced past Chen Xiaolian, looking in the direction behind him. The little girl then immediately tossed away the trolley case and ran through Chen Xiaolian's side with her small legs. She flew into the arms of a young girl.
"Unnie…"
Soo Soo called out in a clear and delicate voice.
Chen Xiaolian turned around. It was a very young girl with long straight hair. She wore a mouth muffle on her face, but her exposed eyes had a very beautiful contour.
Soo Soo rushed into the girl's arms and quickly said a few words. Then, the girl's gaze towards Chen Xiaolian turned very hostile.
She pulled Soo Soo behind her before moving forward with a cold gaze. She looked at Chen Xiaolian…
Suddenly!
This masked girl raised one leg and kicked Chen Xiaolian's upper calf bone area!
Chen Xiaolian was caught off guard and was instantly staggering in pain.
The masked girl took advantage of that moment to pull away Soo Soo's trolley case. She then threw two words at him before turning away.
"Perverted freak!"
Chen Xiaolian kneaded his own calf as he watch the masked girl brought Soo Soo away. They went to the side of a Land Rover parked at the side of the road. She then had Soo Soo get up the vehicle before she herself jumped into the driver's seat.
Before she got on the vehicle, she fiercely shoved a middle finger towards Chen Xiaolian.
Observing the Land Rover moving far away, Chen Xiaolian suddenly felt an unprecedented feeling of tranquillity.
He fell with his butt on the ground and laughed out, disregarding the strange looks given by the surrounding pedestrians and travellers.
"Soo Soo did not recognize me! Hahaha! It must be a dream! Right! It must be just a dream! En, perhaps her name is not even Soo Soo. That is only a name that I dreamt up… hahahaha! That is right, it is surely just a dream!"
As to why he would meet those passengers within the passenger compartment… Du Ya, Damon, Sara…
I must have inadvertently seen their faces while boarding the place.
En, it is the subconscious mind! That is right! It is all due to subconscious thought!
Regarding Han Bi… It is possible that I had happened to see his face. Then, I fabricated his identity and name of Han Bi while dreaming.
That must be it!
This is the only explanation!
If that incident were real… then there would be no reason for them to not recognize me!
Since none of them could recognize me… The only explanation would be that everything was but a dream.
Like I said before, how could there be such a terrifying thing in this world!
"Hahahahaha! Too good! Too good!"
Chen Xiaolian hummed some tunes as he pulled his luggage; he then stopped a taxi to bring him home.
His mood was great!
Who would willingly enter that terrible and dangerous game!
Chen Xiaolian is a good student who is in his youth. Through writing novels, he could earn a lot of money. To him, life is truly wonderful.
Who would want to be thrown into a dangerous world where one had to fight to the death to survive!
Chen Xiaolian went all the way back home; carrying his luggage into the elevator, opening his house door… he randomly kicked off his shoes and stepped in barefooted through the door and into his room.
He first threw himself onto the sofa, lying down with all four limbs extended outwards for a while. After seeing that the sky was darkening, Chen Xiaolian finally climbed up and kicked the luggage towards a corner.
Taking out the travel clothes to wash and etc… Well, I will do it when I am in a better mood.
Chen Xiaolian opened the refrigerator to retrieve a cold bottle of cola; he twisted open the lid and drank up half of its contents and belched out. Suddenly, his phone rang.
Picking it up, he saw that it was his classmate and best friend. He then pressed the answer button.
"Hey, I am Xiaolian. En… I just returned! I just got off the plane and returned home. Hahahaha! Enjoyable! It was especially enjoyable! For three days, all I did was lie down on the sandy beach and wear sunglasses to look at those bikini beauties… En, what have you all been playing for the past few days?"
"Hahahahaha…"
As he was answering the phone, he continued drinking the cola. "… En, I know… Don't worry, I have bought it for you! Discontinued figurine! It is indeed cheaper than those sold domestically, haha! What? It is not for yourself? You broke someone else's and now have to compensate them? I understand. Trust me; I will go get it out now. En, it is inside my luggage. Just you wait, I will go search for it. Do not close off the phone!"
Chen Xiaolian walked to the luggage and placed the phone down the ground.
He had one hand holding the cola while the other unzipped the zipper on the luggage…
And then…
In that instant, Chen Xiaolian was shocked into stupidity!
Just after he finished unzipping… a furry chubby head turned out from within!
Trap… Owner entrapping cat?
Ah wrong, Garfield?
Chen Xiaolian's eyes turned wide, his mouth fell open. With a "plop", the cola was spilled all over Garfield's head, not a drop wasted!
The cola bottle was tossed; Chen Xiaolian fell with his butt to the ground right before he let out a sharp scream.
"Aaaa!!!!!!"
Garfield. "Meow?"
On a field of grass.
Roddy (Luō dí) was holding onto a mobile phone from which came a youngster's sharp scream of "ah ah ah ah".
Even without activating the hands-free, the voice could clearly be heard by those around him.
Roddy's face was one of embarrassment. "Xiaolian! Xiaolian! What are you doing? Hey? Hey?"
The phone was hung up.
Roddy cast a glance at the person standing beside him… it was a girl with long black hair, her face was wearing a mouth muffle, but the exposed contour of her eyes looked very beautiful.
"That… I really did not lie to you," Roddy's face was one of distress. "My friend had said that he will definitely help me get the discontinued figurine from abroad… Don't worry, when it comes to the promises I have made, I will never…"
The masked girl snorted and turned to leave.
Roddy rubbed his head and shouted loudly. "Hey! I am really not lying to you! Qiao Qiao, Qiao Qiao! I will definitely send it to you tomorrow!"
The masked girl did not turn back at all; she only raised her right hand to wave goodbye.
Roddy violently stamped down with his foot. He then picked up his phone and dialled Chen Xiaolian's phone again…
Toot, toot, toot…
"Sorry, the number you have dialled is temporarily unanswered…"
"You bitch!"
Name: Roddy, raw: '罗迪' , pinyin: 'Luō dí'.
Name: Qiao Qiao, raw: '乔乔', pinyin: 'Qiáo Qiáo'. '乔' means tall or lofty.
