There is no one left in the village. No humans, no animals, not even the villagers who did not speak before this. Lou Fan couldn’t accept it and ran to find the old man NPC. Not surprisingly, he is gone too. This is truly a deserted village.

It’s over! His plan for getting equipment fell through! Lou Fan scratched his hair dejectedly, and a messy chicken coop formed on top of his head.

Chen Shuyang comforted Lou Fan, “Forget it, Brother Lou. Let’s go and find daily necessities.”

Lou Fan nodded, and Qin Tan said, “This village should have been abandoned long ago.”

This fact is true. When they entered a few yards, they could see that the contents are all decayed. The items collapsed when touched, which means they are abandoned for a long time, let alone daily necessities.

Lou Fan is about to collapse, “My God, don’t tell me that we won’t even find toiletries!” He won’t be able to withstand it even if he doesn’t have OCD.

Qin Tan curved his lips while looking at Lou Fan, “Don’t worry, toiletries are very cheap in Lazuli. You can change for them with a sweet potato.”

Hearing that, Lou Fan is finally relieved. With some food in hand, he will not die hungry, and with daily necessities in hand, he will not die dirty, so be it.

As they are passing through the radish flower field, they unexpectedly found that the flowers are still in full bloom. The pink and purple flowers are particularly conspicuous in this deserted village. Since Lou Fan didn’t get any equipment, in the spirit of not missing out on any benefits, he asked Qin Tan and Chen Shuyang to help him pick the flowers. Chen Shuyang obediently took the order and helped to pick a lot of flowers. Then, he picked one from the flower field that he thought looked the best and inserted it into his book.

“Shuyang, why did you put the flower in the book?” Lou Fan happened to see it and asked curiously.

Chen Shuyang lifted his glasses and said confidently, “Make a bookmark.”

Lou Fan chuckled. Although Chen Shuyang looked pitiful, Lou Fan felt that he is somewhat funny.

Qin Tan: “In Lazuli, you can also exchange stuff for weapons. Although it is not as good as bringing your spirit weapons, it is enough.”

Chen Shuyang nodded vigorously. He cheered up and continued to pick the flowers until Qin Tan’s backpack is packed full. Then they found a few cloth bags along the way and planned to come back tomorrow to dig some sweet potatoes and potatoes to bring back.

On the 9th day, the 3 of them continued to hoard food and filled the cloth bags fully before returning. After returning to the resting site, while there is still time, Lou Fan continued to ask Li Xin some questions.

On the afternoon of the 10th day, the group set off from the village and walked towards the platform where they got off. When leaving the village, Lou Fan glanced back. The quiet village looked dilapidated, surrounded by mountains and forests. It did not look like how they first saw it when they arrived at this world. The village has once been full of people and bustling with noise, but it still couldn’t help sinking in the long river of time. Even though knowing that this is a parallel world, Lou Fan can’t help but wonder if there is also a person named Yu Erniang who is treated like this in reality, and she too felt resentful for this.

Qin Tan is waiting for Lou Fan. Lou Fan turned around to catch up and walked forward side by side with him. The platform is faintly visible, and with his reliable teammate beside him, his nervous heart suddenly settled down.

The red and black old train stopped amid the sound of the whistle, and the people who had already swiped their watches and waited on the platform got on the train one by one. Lou Fan and Chen Shuyang got on the train together, while Qin Tan got in the next compartment. As soon as he got in the car, Lou Fan’s originally aching arm began to itch. He pulled his sleeves up and saw that the scar that was about to scab had grown pink new flesh. 10 minutes later, his arm is as good as before. There are no wounds, not even scars. Lou Fan touched the spot. So, the train also has a scar removal effect, huh? Nice.

The train ran at a constant speed, and there is a layer of mist outside the window. Nothing could be seen so Lou Fan simply held the bow to him and closed his eyes to rest. After a while, the whistle sounded again. They have arrived – Lazuli Town.

Chen Shuyang got off the car in front of him and let out an exclamation. Lou Fan followed behind carrying a cloth bag. When he got off the car, it is as if he has returned to a human society again. There are many people around the platform.

The people of the Level 6 team are healthy and kicking when they got out of the car. At this moment, their tight spirit loosened up and they carried a relaxed smile on their faces. He Yong patted Qin Tan on the shoulder and said to the two standing together, “Thank you for this time. If you need anything, come to me at any time, or you can look for them too.”

Looking at Qin Tan, who is staying silent, Lou Fan could only do the conversation himself, “Okay, I will look for you if there is a problem. I have written down your addresses. You guys should quickly go back and rest.”

He Yong nodded, thanked the two again before taking his team away. The rest of the Level 1 team members have left long ago while some newcomers are standing still at a loss. At this moment, they suddenly found themselves to be out of place. Because they didn’t build a good relationship with the seniors back in Luoyang Ancient Village, they are now completely clueless and don’t know anything. They don’t even know where to ask.

Qin Tan carried the backpack and took the cloth bags in Lou Fan’s hand. Then he said casually, “Let’s go.”

Lou Fan nodded and motioned Chen Shuyang to follow.

Qin Tan took the two of them to walk for about 20 minutes, and they arrived at a hall-like place. Lou Fan looked around curiously along the way. The hall is empty, with only a few large machines in it. Qin Tan walked to one of them and motioned Lou Fan to swipe his watch. A map is displayed on it.

“These are houses or small bungalows. A house can be shared with 2 people, gray-colored ones mean no one is staying in it so you can choose at will.” Qin Tan pointed at the boxes and said. Then he swiped the screen with his finger, and clicked on a house, “I live here, upstairs.”

Lou Fan looked at the 2 houses built side by side. The bottom box of the house that Qin Tan pointed to is gray. He stretched out his hand to tap on that box. Then a confirmation popup asked whether he is sure with his choice. Lou Fan chose Yes.

Seeing Lou Fan had chosen his place, Chen Shuyang leaned in and asked with a smile, “Brother Qin, can I choose the house next to you?”

Qin Tan nodded, and Chen Shuyang immediately swiped his watch to select his room. The whole process is done in 5 seconds without any hesitation. After the selection, Chen Shuyang saw Qin Tan and Lou Fan staring at him. Feeling embarrassed, he touched his head and giggle silly-ly.

After they have chosen their place, the two happily followed Qin Tan back home. The houses are built of a uniform style. It has 2 floors, with a roof garden for the upper floor and a small courtyard for the lower floor. The area of the house is quite large, and it is just like a fully furnished unit. It comes with simple decoration, bedroom, study room, gym, and kitchen. At a glance, they thought they have arrived at a resort.

There is an exchange machine next to the living room. Lou Fan walked over and looked at it curiously. Qin Tan took out a radish flower from his bag and placed it on a tray below. The machine made a beep and the tray retracted into the machine. 10 seconds later, the screen of the exchange machine lighted up, but only 1 of the 4 categories is lit.

Lou Fan: “Does this mean we can only exchange for daily necessities?” He read the options out.

Qin Tan nodded, “Yes, it means these lighted options are equivalent to a radish flower.”

Chen Shuyang felt like crying, “Brother Lou, will we starve to death?”

Lou Fan felt that something is wrong. He reached out and grabbed a handful of radish flowers from his bag. He didn’t count how many he took, but it seemed to be quite a lot. Then he put all of them on the tray that reappeared. The tray retracted again with a beep, and a countdown is displayed on the screen. This time, 30 seconds later, the screen lights up again. The four options, which are daily necessities, food and drink, medicine, and weapons and equipment are all lit.

Chen Shuyang opened his mouth wide and lifted his glasses. Looking at the screen, he turned his head and gave a thumbs up to Lou Fan who is smiling, “Brother Lou, your way is too brilliant. You can even do it like this!”

Qin Tan also looked speechless. He hadn’t studied this exchange machine before. Last time, he had nothing to exchange. Naturally, he didn’t know that he could stack items. If one has something to exchange, it is not difficult to find out about this. But Lou Fan’s mind sure turns quickly, he immediately thought to do this.

Lou-Practical-Fan helplessly said, “Isn’t this a basic thing? You guys don’t act like this, my pride will swell.”

Chen Shuyang waved his hand immediately, “Brother Lou, is there such a difficult ‘basic thing’? Don’t talk nonsense.”

“Go and exchange for some food, then rest after eating. After you wake up, I’ll take you two out for a walk.” Qin Tan stopped the two of them from talking, and also blocked Lou Fan’s eager hand from the machine.

Eating is the first priority, as well as the daily necessities that he needs. Qin Tan didn’t know whether the exchange mechanism could store the excess value. So, Lou Fan added the radish flowers one by one. They first exchanged for the daily necessities that they needed, and then put more flowers in to exchange for other things. Although there are quite a lot of radish flowers in their hands, they currently only have this item to exchange. As for the sweet potatoes, they were thrown aside by them three. But they needed a lot of things, such as food, medicine, and even weapons, so they had to save a little bit. Moreover, they need to inquire about intel.

Lou Fan grabbed his hair and felt almost sorrowful. What does it mean by ‘unable to make ends meet’? This is it! They must collect more things in the next world.

After dividing the exchanged items among them, Qin Tan said to rest early and took Chen Shuyang to his house. Lou Fan is left alone in his room so he took the toiletries and went into the bathroom without hesitation. After an hour, Lou Fan almost washed off a layer of his skin. He wiped his hair and came out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel, feeling like he is alive again. While taking a bath earlier, he looked at spots of black water on the floor. It makes him feel like he hadn’t taken a bath for half a year, but the fact is that he only stayed in Luoyang Ancient Village for 10 days.

Lou Fan fell on the soft fabric sofa. After taking a shower, his exhaustion seemed to be washed away by water. His entire body felt soft, and it is so comfortable to wash with hot water on his body. Thinking about it, he slowly closed his eyes.

After a good night’s sleep, it is already 12 hours later when Lou Fan woke up. He grimaced painfully as he rubbed his sore neck. He is a 1.8 meters tall young man and he curled up on a 2-seater sofa for a night. Such talent.

When Lou Fan got up to wash, his dirty clothes are thrown on the ground and he won’t wear them again. He turned on the exchange machine, put in a handful of radish flowers, and began to study the menu carefully.

There are 4 options on the home screen. After putting the radish flower in, a string of numbers is displayed in the lower right corner. Lou Fan randomly clicked into the daily necessities area. In addition to daily necessities, there are also all the things needed in daily life, such as clothing, shoes, and hats. Maybe because there are enough radish flowers in the balance, many of the grids inside are lit up. He flipped further back of the menu but saw nothing as everything is greyed out.

Lou Fan chose a comfortable leisure clothing and clicked on other options to check. Now, only the first 2 categories have more exchangeable options. As for medicine and weapons/equipment, there’s only 1 item that is lit. Scratching his hair, Lou Fan decided to leave it alone. Poor is poor, there’s no way.

Unscrewing a bottle of water, Lou Fan opened the French windows and walked into the yard while drinking. There is nothing in the yard, just a bare piece of ground. Lou Fan stood in it and took a deep breath. Then, Qin Tan’s low voice that is carrying a smile sounded above his head, “Good morning.”

As soon as Yu Erniang said those words, the surrounding scene suddenly became festive. The black shadow disappeared and the villagers appeared in its place, with stiff smiles on their faces. Their clothes are those paper clothes burned to the dead.

Lou Fan saw several faces among the group, they are the people he saw previously rushing into Yu Erniang’s room, punching and kicking her.

“Look, our task is completed!” A girl from the Level 1 team exclaimed in surprise.

The 5 members of the Level 1 team looked at their watches. Lou Fan also leaned over, and it showed – Mission: Find Yu Erniang within 10 days. (Completed)

Looking at the Level 1 team that just completed their task, the Level 6 team members are very envious. It’s a pity that their task has just started.

Before the Level 1 team can enjoy their happiness, Yu Erniang said again, “Since you have come to our village, please stay and don’t leave. Let’s be a company together.”

Who wants to be with you?! Everyone thought this way, and get ready with weapons in their hands.

Qin Tan pulled Lou Fan back, and said, “Follow tightly behind me. Don’t try to help me, and take care of yourself.”

“Don’t worry…” Lou Fan is interrupted by Qin Tan before he could finish speaking.

Qin Tan: “Be obedient, don’t let me be distracted.”

As someone who had just had a showdown with his mother that he liked men, Lou Fan’s heart suddenly felt moved when he heard this. It’s like a drop of water dropped into a pool of calm water. He glanced at Qin Tan’s resolute profile, an inexplicable feeling filled his heart.

This man is so gerddam handsome!

“Okay.” Lou Fan promised and stood behind Qin Tan obediently, feeling extremely safe.

Since the level 1 team’s task has been completed, 2 of them don’t want to stay here anymore and planned to go back to the resting site. The other 3 (including Qin Tan) expressed their willingness to stay back to help the Level 6 team, sharing the pressure of the mobs. As for Boss Yu Erniang, the Level 1 team members expressed that they could do nothing. He Yong didn’t expect that they would still be willing to stay and help with the mobs, so naturally he is grateful.

The other 2 Level 1 members head back together. Unexpectedly, there are too many villagers and their fighting power is amazing. Those two had no time to handle the mob. One of them got swarmed by the villagers and beaten all over while the other tried his best to return to He Yong’s group. He was terribly wounded when he got back. As for the one who got swarmed, there is only a smear of blood in the place where the man fell in the distance. Everyone didn’t care about them, and could only brace themselves to deal with the villagers who rushed up to them.

The Level 6 team walked forward very slowly, and the rest of the people helped them share the pressure behind. The villagers expressionlessly rushed forward, repeating the slashing and beating movements mechanically, tirelessly. In the beginning, everyone except Qin Tan is still a little bit unable to attack the human-looking villagers. But in the end, they use all their might to attack them.

Chen Shuyang placed his book in his backpack. Holding a stick he had picked it up somewhere, he started swinging it around to beat the villagers. Not sure if he is lucky or what, Chen Shuyang is not injured at all so far. That person from Level 1 who wanted to leave just now is already injured, so it didn’t take long for him to suddenly cry out miserably. After a while, there isn’t any sound coming from him. Everyone can’t even protect themselves so no one can care about the person. Those who seek death should suffer the consequences themselves.

The stiff villagers fell down one after another, then disappeared. Next, they turned into black shadows and attacked the group again.

Chen Shuyang: “Frick, it’s not fair. They have 2 lives.”

Lou Fan: “…” It is indeed a bit unfair.

At this moment, the Level 6 team’s distance is about 20 meters away from Yu Erniang, right at the gate of the small farmhouse while Lou Fan and the others are about 10 meters behind them. The moment Level 6 members stepped over the threshold, Yu Erniang’s clothes turned to ashes. She turned into a scorched skeleton with pitch-black eyes looking straight at them. She let out a bitter scream, and a raging fire suddenly broke out in the farmyard. Both the teams (Level 6) in the house and outside (Level 1 + newcomers) could really feel the burning sensation of the fire. This is real fire!

Qin Tan yelled, “Don’t get burned by the fire.”

Before his voice fell completely, a Level 6 team member unconsciously tilted his body and his arm got injured by the tongue of fire. Instantly, like lighting a fuse, the tongue of fire swiftly swallowed the person. Everyone only heard the horrifying screams, and then there is no sound. There is only a scorched black figure left on the ground.

Under the glow of the flames, the group of people turned pale. But it is too late to be afraid now, a step slower and they might be the next one. Hence, the Level 6 members speeded up their movements one after another. Unfortunately, across the flames, the Level 6 members couldn’t hurt Yu Erniang. The man with darts in the team threw darts at Yu Erniang, but unfortunately, the distance of the darts is limited, and it can’t hurt Yu Erniang at all. The surrounding flames burned more vigorously as Yu Erniang screamed. While avoiding the flames, the Level 6 team had to deal with the dark shadows, so they inevitably got bloody scratches here and there. If this continues, they will not be able to kill the boss, and also get trapped by fire.

He Yong is anxious. This is bad, he is afraid that he has to die here today! He couldn’t handle it!

Lou Fan stood behind Qin Tan and didn’t have to worry about being injured. The main battlefield had taken away most of the mob’s hatred points (focus). He only needed to help Chen Shuyang occasionally to kill the mob. Lou Fan has good eyesight. He looked at the violent Yu Erniang and suddenly noticed that she had a pair of new and delicate little shoes in her arms. It was the pair she held in her arms before she died. Those shoes are very important to her!

Lou Fan’s eyes lit up and he shouted, “Qin Tan, hold the situation and don’t let the dark shadow touch me.”

Next, Lou Fan yelled at He Yong who is in the middle of the fire, “Team Leader He, I have an idea. Please help me distract her first.”

He Yong already ran out of choices at this moment. Hearing Lou Fan’s shout, he immediately seized the glimmer of hope and ordered the team members to attract Yu Erniang’s attention, and open opportunities for Lou Fan.

Lou Fan held his bow steadily. The string is stretched taut and his face looked calm. Everything around him seemed to have faded into nothing. Taking aim, Lou Fan shot without any hesitation. The glowing arrow flew out surprisingly fast and rushed into Yu Erniang’s arms with a burst of wind. The arrow hit the pair of shoes without error, and immediately afterward, Yu Erniang’s hollow eyes were rounded. She let out an inhuman scream. The scream shook people’s heads and everyone couldn’t help but cover their ears.

The surrounding scenery disappears like fading colors. After the scream disappeared, the group found themselves standing on the slopes of the back mountain. Weeds grow all around the area. A lone grave almost submerged by weeds looked very lonely by itself.

Everyone looked at each other and couldn’t believe that Boss Yu Erniang is resolved. The Level 6 team members almost burst into tears of joy. All 4 of them thought they are going to die here with Yu Erniang. With tears in his eyes, Li Xin raised her wrist and took a look. Then she said in surprise, “It’s done, our task is completed! That’s great!” She survived again in the mission world.

He Yong also took a look, then lay on the ground as if he is relieved. The next moment, he jumped up and walked towards Lou Fan.

Since Yu Erniang died, the shadows around them have disappeared. Lou Fan thought to himself, the unborn child is her obsession. So, if he shot the shoe, her obsession will disappear.

“Lou Fan, it’s all thanks to you this time. If it weren’t for you, we would probably…” He Yong choked, almost speechless. Even though he had survived 5 times, it still frightened him every time.

The other team members also came up to Lou Fan. Although they are tired, they still smiled and thanked Lou Fan. Lou Fan waved his hand, “Everyone is in this together, so it’s fine to help each other. You guys also told me a lot of experience. Besides, I get to accumulate actual combat experience too.”

Lou Fan is strong, humble, and not proud at all. Everyone likes him very much.

After a short break to recover their strength, everyone did not want to continue staying in this ghostly place. The lightly injured people helped the wounded Level 6 team members to walk back. Qin Tan’s arm is also scratched several times and left bloody stains. Lou Fan took out the bandage from his backpack and borrowed He Yong’s medicine. After applying the medicine, he wrapped the bandage around, almost wrapping Qin Tan’s arm into a mummy. Qin Tan doesn’t know if he should laugh or cry.

When the group returned to the resting site, none of the newcomers slept. They sat shivering in front of the fire. Lou Fan and the rest shouted at them from outside for a long time before someone came to open the door, and they are overjoyed to see them.

Lou Fan asked strangely, “What’s wrong with you?”

The newcomer replied, “Not long after you guys have left, there are horrible whistling noises everywhere…”

Then the newcomer saw a large group of wounded in the back. Unable to say anything more, he silently stepped aside. Seeing the Level 6 team hurt so badly, the newcomer covered his mouth and is shocked.

He Yong didn’t have the energy to speak. The others also laid down like dead dogs. They had wounds on their bodies and fought all night. At this moment, the sky is faintly pale, and it is about to dawn. Lou Fan is also tired. After talking to Qin Tan, he drank some water. Then he lay down and closed his eyes. He fell asleep almost instantly.

By the time Lou Fan woke up again, it is already 1.00 pm on the 8th day. Everyone’s tasks have been completed, the Level 6 team is seriously injured so they are all resting with their eyes closed. They had medicine in their hands, but the injuries they suffered are not minor, so they had to recuperate while waiting to get on the train. The Level 1 team is also injured but they don’t have medicine. The Level 6 team couldn’t keep taking care of them either, so they could only continue to rest in place. The newcomers still looked at them with horror, and also looked despair when they thought of the fact that they will need to complete the task in the next world like this.

In this mission world, there are only 7 members left on the newcomer team, 3 members on the Level 1 team, and 4 members on the Level 6 team. The return journey is on the afternoon of the 10th day, which means they will have to stay here for 2 more days.

Seeing Lou Fan wake up, Qin Tan handed him a baked potato. Lou Fan is really hungry too. He rubbed his hair, took 2 sips of water, and rinsed his mouth before biting a big mouthful of potatoes. Eating the potatoes, he suddenly disdained himself, “I will look for washing tools later, and collect some more food along the way. I feel like I am almost a savage, ah, I really want to take a bath!”

Chen Shuyang also woke up just now and nodded in agreement, “I have never felt so dirty.”

Qin Tan smiled, “You can wash when you go back. I’ll go out later to find out what is usable around here.”

Lou Fan finished the potatoes in 2-3 bites. Since Chen Shuyang performed well, Qin Tan also gave him some potatoes. The big boy with glasses smiled contentedly.

“Let’s go out and stroll around.” Lou Fan clapped his hands. He picked up his bow, then turned around and asked, “Do anyone want to go out with us to find some supplies?”

Since Yu Erniang has been resolved, there is nothing terrible outside, but the newcomers are still reluctant to go out. No one else wanted to go him and Lou Fan turned his head back indifferently, following behind Qin Tan with Chen Shuyang. Lou Fan is not a holy mother, since those people are unwilling to accept the reality, no one will force them. But the result is what they need to bear by themselves.

After walking around the village, Lou Fan stared into space, a little depressed.

After taking a day off, on the evening of the 7th day, the time is 9.00 pm, and the moon rose into the sky right on schedule.

A group of 12 people checked their weapons and held them in their hands, waiting. The eyes of the Level 6 team are firm. Except for Qin Tan, all 4 members of the Level 1 team looked panicked. Although Chen Shuyang is also a little scared, he kept encouraging himself inside. Lou Fan moved his arms around and tried his best to keep his movements ready as usual. As for Chen Shuyang’s book, He Yong is also not clear about the usage. The people in Lazuli have various weapons, even if they are similar, the usage is not the same.

Taking a deep breath, He Yong opened the door and stepped out, and everyone behind him also went out. The remaining 8 newcomers watched as the group walked into the darkness and shut the door tightly behind them.

“Why does it feel like it’s getting chilly here as soon as they leave?” A girl touched her arm, crying.

The other girl tightened her arm, eyes looking everywhere, “Don’t talk nonsense. Let’s go in and close the door. Those, those things can’t get in.”

The remaining 8 people rushed into the house like frightened birds, afraid to be the slower one to get into the house.

The moon tonight does not seem to be as bright as the previous few days. Fortunately, the Level 6 team is well prepared and there are enough flashlights. Everyone gets one, which they will take turns to light up the way. The back mountain is not very far away. They already explored the path during the day, and it takes about 20 minutes to walk there. Even if it is dark and they walked slowly, they should see the destination in 30 minutes at most. Lou Fan raised the watch on his wrist and looked at the time. They have been walking for nearly an hour and still haven’t seen anything. There are dark shadows occasionally attacking them on the road but they are easily resolved by the Level 6 team. They don’t look sorry like how Lou Fan and Qin Tan were yesterday. Even if they lost some time due to this, Lou Fan still felt faintly wrong.

Lou Fan pulled Qin Tan who was walking next to him, and asked in a low voice, “Did we hit a ‘ghost wall’?”

[鬼打墙 – A phenomenon where one keep walking back and forth in the same place]

Qin Tan nodded and is about to speak when He Yong gestured to make everyone stop, “Something is wrong, we should have hit a ghost wall.”

Unexpectedly, it’s not just him(LF). Lou Fan could see that He Yong is very anxious. Then He Yong took out something from his backpack. He held it carefully and walked to the middle, seriously placing the item on the ground. It is a golden bead, emitting golden light on the ground. As if a rock fell into a lake, a layer of ripples rippled in the air. Next, the scenery in front of them seemed to have been stripped of a layer and become different from before.

Lou Fan looked back and found that they are standing at a distance of about 300 meters from the resting site, and they could even clearly see the bonfire inside.

“Frick, we really hit a ghost wall!”

“It’s like we are just walking on the same spot.”

“Okay, stop scolding, let’s go!” He Yong stopped the rest of them from complaining. He carefully put away the bead and set off again with people.

12.00 am at midnight is not a very good time because the variables are too great. He Yong originally thought that starting 3 hours in advance should be enough but they ended up hitting a ghost wall. Li Xin walked at the end, Lou Fan quickly followed and walked beside her. Lou Fan had beautiful eyebrows. When he smiled, his eyebrows are curved, making him look quite friendly. When he is not smiling, his peach blossom eyes look cold, giving him a temperament that strangers shouldn’t come close.

“Sister Li Xin, what was that item that Team Leader He just holding?” Lou Fan had a gentle smile on his face. “It looks amazing, but his weapon is not that, right?”

Lou Fan has a good attitude and looks good. Li Xin has a good impression of him and is willing to tell him more.

“That’s the ‘equipment’ found by Leader. In addition to the weapons everyone brought in with them, each mission world will have some special items that you could get. Generally speaking, it is related to the task NPC. Completing the task given by the NPC, or triggering a piece of key information can let you get these items. These special items can be brought back to Lazuli to enter the next mission world. As for the usage of the items, some will give hints in a relevant mission world while some you have to experiment and find out yourself according to the rules of the mission world. Maybe these items will save your life in the next world, or you can return to Lazuli to exchange or trade with others.”

Li Xin paused and said, “After returning to Lazuli, the information regarding your next mission will be released 3 days in advance, leaving you with enough time to prepare.”

Lou Fan is surprised to know that things could be done like this. He turned to look at Qin Tan and asked, “Qin Tan, do you know these?”

Qin Tan shook his head, he hadn’t had time to inquire about it. The people he met in his newcomer world are not good and gave him little experience. He survived on his own. After returning to Lazuli, the seniors wanted to recruit him, but he refused. Moreover, he didn’t bring anything back from the newcomer world. He just saw the seniors collecting something so he also collected some. Only then did he exchange some essential items in Lazuli. Since he has nothing left in his hand, he has no way to inquire for intel.

Li Xin smiled, “Meeting us is also good luck for you. There are all sorts of people in Lazuli, and some do all kinds of bad things. Fortunately, Lazuli’s protection mechanism means we cannot harm each other, but you must be careful in the mission world.”

Lou Fan nodded and gratefully thanked Li Xin for her advice. He exclaimed, “If so, then I must collect as much equipment as possible in this mission world.”

Li Xin laughed out loud, “You thought it is as easy as picking Chinese cabbage? Let’s not talk about finding the NPC that triggers the mission, you don’t even know whether your main mission can be completed within the specified time or not. You know, this world is considered a simple world. We can define it as a Level D world, but it took me 5 days to find the key point and this is the lowest level world. The first concern is a matter of time, and the second is a matter of luck. Can you find the NPC that triggers the task? As of now, we have not found any other NPCs except the old man.”

Li Xin sighed and said helplessly, “Equipment is very important, everyone knows this, but whether you have time and luck to search for it is not up to you. Equipment is important, but life is more important.”

Lou Fan didn’t reply right away, he is thinking about something.

Qin Tan took over the conversation and asked, “What do you mean by the world classification?”

Li Xin paused and took a look at Qin Tan before saying, “Lazuli did not give a level division to the worlds. It’s what the seniors came up with among themselves. There is an announcement regarding this in the trade union in Lazuli. You can check it out at that time.”

Lou Fan finally came back to his senses and asked with a frown, “Sister Xin, only the NPC that triggers the task can give us the equipment?” He is very concerned about this question.

Li Xin corrected Lou Fan, “It’s not ‘can give’, but ‘maybe give’. As for whether there is only one way to get equipment, I don’t really know. If you want to find out more about it, someone in Lazuli sells intelligence.” Since it’s selling intelligence, naturally one needs to pay enough remuneration.

Lou Fan sighed and felt that he is extremely poor right now. If so, shouldn’t he dig more potatoes and sweet potatoes and bring them back? But he doesn’t know if anyone wants them in Lazuli. The issue of equipment is listed in one of his most concerned matters. Li Xin also said that the success rate of completing missions is greater and more secure with equipment. Plus, it can even save lives at critical moments, so he has to pay attention to it. Once again made up his mind, Lou Fan must inquire more about the equipment when he returned to Lazuli.

He Yong’s voice suddenly came from the front, and Lou Fan discovered that, at some point, many dark shadows have appeared around them. After breaking the ghost wall, it seemed that a certain balance is broken and these dark shadows surrounded them unscrupulously. Lou Fan knew what kind of monsters are in the dark shadows, so he reminded everyone to deal with it carefully.

No need for Lou Fan’s reminder, the Level 6 team also knew that these shadows are no small fries. They clenched their weapons and stay alert to prevent the shadows from getting close. Not far away is the cemetery area. To reach the tomb of Yu Erniang, it is necessary to pass through this cemetery area. However, the mass of pitch-black shadows makes everyone feel uneasy.

There’s too much of them!

He Yong frowned and felt confused inside. It stands to reason that this is just a simple Level D world, so it shouldn’t be so difficult. Everyone said that every 5th level upwards is a hurdle. When he first arrived here in this world, he was still rejoicing by the level. It turned out that it is really not as simple as he thought. Perhaps it is because their group has leveled up to level 6? But thinking about this now is superfluous. If they can’t retreat, they can only move forward.

“Everyone should be careful. Close attack on the outside and long attack inside, quickly form a circle.” He Yong immediately arranged the positions.

Lou Fan is surrounded inside and he is standing behind Qin Tan. Beside him is a Level 6 team member, and his weapon is a dart. Facing the cemetery ghost, the Level 6 team is under a bit of pressure, so most of the long-range attackers helped them to shave the amount. Lou Fan draws his bow and shoots the arrows without stopping. One arrow after another accurately hits the black shadow, and the shadow disappears without a trace in an instant. Actually, Lou Fan has selfish intentions too. Most of his arrows are helping in Qin Tan’s direction. When there is no emergency on Qin Tan’s side, then only he helps the other side. Fortunately, the shadows are not unlimited. After killing a bunch of them, the pressure on the attackers suddenly dropped.

“It’s really frickin dangerous. Fortunately, the shadows won’t get resurrected. Otherwise, our attacks will be really useless.” The Level 6 team bald man cursed out. Then he turned his head and grinned at Lou Fan, “Hey, your arrows are very good. It’s too frickin accurate.”

Lou Fan didn’t like the man’s vulgar compliments, but it’s still a compliment so he nodded as a response.

Everyone wiped their sweat with lingering fears. The attackers on the periphery of the circle are more or less injured. Those black shadows are not herbivores after all. After everyone took turns applying the medicine, they continued to move towards the back mountain. Qin Tan didn’t suffer any injuries at all and he secretly winked at Lou Fan.

The team slowly advanced towards the back mountain. When they reached the tomb that they had checked during the day, the watch on their wrists indicated that the time is 12.00 am midnight, not a second less. The originally deserted and messy hillside has changed. A ghostly house appeared halfway up the hillside. Yu Erniang smilingly stood at the door, with two plain white lanterns hanging on both sides of the door. The faint firelight is like a group of ghost fire in the darkness. She is wearing a bright red dress. She is not as skinny as Lou Fan saw in the burnt house, but rather beautiful. However, two abnormal blushes on her face and bright red lips make her look a little scary.

Standing in front of the door, Yu Erniang watched the group of people, grinning with a chilly smile. Her exposed hands are bare bones like charcoal, and the voice is cold and lifeless like a puppet, “The guests are here.”
