Skull must drag Ming Shu to level up, but Ming Shu only wanted to be with her snacks and didnāt want to move. So basically she just followed behind Skull to collect some free experience.
Past midnight, the First Levelās people were offline to sleep, but Ming Shu instead became energetic. She caused Changāan Alliance to hunt her down for another round all over the world.
When Ming Shu finally got rid of the pursuing forces, she looked up to see Xi Zi Lin standing nearby.
She clicked the map and found she actually arrived at the Dark Night Corridor.
There were very few players right now, and Ming Shuās appearance was eye-catching. Xi Zi Lin ran over obediently.
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: Guru guru, youāre still awake?
[Private chat] Snacks Are Justice: Cultivation.
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: Ah???
Xi Zi Lin didnāt seem to understand the meaning, but she didnāt think more and continued typing.
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: Guru, can you do a mission with me? Itās too late, I canāt find other players to team up with me.
The minimum number for entering the Dark Night Corridor was two.
Xi Zi Lin couldnāt do it alone.
[Private chat] Snacks Are Justice: Why should I help you?
I need your Hatred Points, how come Iād help you?
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: No no no, you donāt have to help me, guru, you just need to enter with me.
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: I didnāt find anyone elseā¦
Ming Shu intended to leave, but she walked back after taking a few steps.
[Private chat] Snacks Are Justice: Team up now.
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: Guru, youāre so kind.
Kind?
Iāll let you know how kind I am later.
Dark Night Corridorās boss was actually not hard to defeat, after all the boss was only level 40. But the feather Ming Shu said rarely shed. It was said some players tried for a month straight yet found nothing.
After they began the mission, Xi Zi Lin began to beat up small monsters first. She looked technically skilled now compared to at the underground palace.
After finishing all the small monsters, the big boss was the only trouble left.
The big boss would go crazy in the end, and the game guide said the player needed to interrupt it in the process.
Xi Zi Lin was about to interrupt the big boss, then a dazzling skill light flashed in front of her and blocked the big boss.
Then her character was dead.
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: Guruā¦
[Private chat] Snacks Are Justice: By mistake, one more time?
Ming Shu said very sincerely and Xi Zi Lin couldnāt blame her.
The two entered the mission again.
But the ending was the same.
Xi Zi Lin died again.
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: Guru, I can finish it alone.
[Private chat] Snacks Are Justice: Donāt you need my help?
I donāt believe that she will not be angry.
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: ā¦
As soon as Ming Shu helped, the boss would go crazy and she would be killed. Canāt she just not help?
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: Okay.
[Private chat] Snacks Are Justice: Do we need to do it again?
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: Guru, donāt you sleep?
[Private chat] Snacks Are Justice: Cultivation.
I have to gain your Hatred Points, sleep? Nonsense.
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: Thenā¦ letās try again.
Xi Zi Lin wanted Ming Shu to stand by, and she had typed the words, but then deleted them.
What followed was that Xi Zi Lin died again and again in the mission.
Dead.
Dead.
Dead ĆN.
Ming Shu made up her mind to turn the Dark Night Corridor into a nightmare for Xi Zi Lin. Sheāll be angered to hell. Iāll continue.
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: Guru, Iā¦ I want to sleep.
If this continued, I would really have a shadow.
[Private chat] Snacks Are Justice: Weāll continue tomorrow?
Xi Zi Lin didnāt answer for a long time. As Ming Shu thought she had fallen asleep, Xi Zi Lin sent a message.
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: See you tomorrow, guru.
Then in the next few days, except for hunting down Yan Ru Meng and God of nine suns rises all over the world, Ming Shuās daily task was to take Xi Zi Lin and help her get killed.
[Private chat] Skull: Hey big brother, what are you doing all day with that Xi Zi Lin? I told you to level up and you wonāt come, look at your poor low level now, arenāt you ashamed to be concerned with love and romance?
[Private chat] Snacks Are Justice: Iām busy being a profiteer, I donāt have time to level up.
[Private chat] Skull: I donāt believe this. Youāve been losing yourself recently! Even if Yan Ru Meng doesnāt like you, you donāt have to pick up someone casually. Who knows if this one is male or female. Itās great to be single. Look at me, big brother, you need to cheer up!!
Right, rumors in the world said that āheā aimed at Yan Ru Meng because Yan Ru Meng didnāt like him.
F**k, these little goblins donāt even ask for my opinion before they make up rumors.
I was obviously wanting the fake female protagonist to hate me!
[Private chat] Snacks Are Justice: I am really making money.
What should I eat if I donāt make money!
I have my professional integrity!
In order to make Skull believe her, Ming Shu specially showed him screenshots of recent transaction chatting records. But Skull yelled a lot after reading those, as if Ming Shu had done something super evil by being an evil merchant at this time.
[Private chat] Skull: Do you know that Xiao Jiās team has almost completed the equipment preparation recently?
[Private chat] Skull: But our team, youāre not even at max level now, and Little Rabbit Guā¦ Dear god, I donāt even want to mention it, Iām so angry.
[Private chat] Snacks Are Justice: Then why havenāt you gone to equip the team, what are you doing here with me?
[Private chat] Skull: Okay okay okay, youāre the big brother.
No matter what Skull said, Ming Shu just ignored him. Finally Skull had to turn off the private chat and went to train other worthless team members.
ā¦
[System Announcement] The 50th floor of the underground palace is opened. Fifteen days to the birth of the devil king, all players should work hard to stop the devil king from being born.
When Ming Shu saw this news she was refining medicine with the mushrooms. After reading the news, she continued her work as if nothing had happened.
Maybe itās because the countdown to the devil kingās birth was getting shorter and shorter, both Liu Yan and God of nine suns rises didnāt care about Ming Shu much then. Even if they met each other, they would avoid her, or if that didnāt work, they would go offline.
But unlike the others, Xiao Ji was online less.
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: Guru, do we go for missions today?
Xi Zi Lin reported to Ming Shu on time everyday, although she had almost become an expert on being killed on missions.
[Private chat] Snacks Are Justice: Of course.
Xi Zi Lin was already waiting. As soon as Ming Shu arrived, she opened the mission interface.
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: Guru, do you want to enter the underground palace mission? I heard that players will get rewards if they reach below the 50th floor. Some players even got orange equipment.
[Private chat] Snacks Are Justice: Oh.
I can make an orange costume by myself, so why should I bother getting one down there.
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: Guru, you really donāt want to go there?
[Private chat] Snacks Are Justice: Do you?
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: I want toā¦ but no one wants to take me. Iām not skilled, and those players who teamed up with me all dislike taking meā¦
[Private chat] Snacks Are Justice: You can play the woman, and there will be a lot of players who want to take you.
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: ā¦ I canāt, Iām not that kind of person.
[Private chat] Snacks Are Justice: Itās just a game, and you only need to type a few words on the screen. Who knows what kind of person is at the other side of the computer.
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: That doesnāt work either!!
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: Guru, letās just finish this mission.
Xi Zi Lin changed the topic swiftly and concentrated on killing monsters.
[Private chat] Snacks Are Justice: If it werenāt for my ugly image, I would also want to use my beauty.
The Host should take all the blame. Why did she choose an ugly hunk? I canāt even find a little girl who will cook for me.
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: ā¦
Xi Zi Lin looked at the ugly hunk beside her. She thought again that she was accepting all kinds of abuse for standing by him.
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: Guru, sometimes appearance doesnāt mean anything. Itās the soul that matters.
[Private chat] Snacks Are Justice: I am shallow. I value face.
[Private chat] Xi Zi Lin: ā¦
