    • by Cristae Chapter 114: The Final Round The dice cup Brother Ruan used was just like the ones at the outside gambling tables, its interior lined with felt. Yan Jiyun turned a chip over in his hand, seeming relaxed but intent on listening to the subtle sounds within the cup. The dice had been switched out; the way three dice landed produced a different sound now. Others might not be able to distinguish any of it, but Yan Jiyun’s keen hearing caught every minor nuance of dice meeting cup. No wonder…
    • by Cristae Chapter 165: Female Lead Replaced The fourth male lead, Si Hao, saw a white shape float past the window, but no one else did, and most of the NPCs just brushed it off. The assistant director said, “Si Hao, just keep doing the same performance next take, you nailed it.” Such a sharp tongue—several NPCs laughed quietly. Everyone knew Si Hao only got in through backdoor connections; with his acting skills, there’s no way he would have made the cut on his own. The players didn’t care; all…
    • by Cristae Chapter 169: Playing Ghosts Yan Jiyun didn’t know Shi Yan well, but that didn’t stop them from searching for critical clues in the library together. A single location used for multiple purposes was probably bound up with various storylines. Since Shi Yan and He Yuanle hadn’t tracked down the real culprit last time, nor ever visited the library, it stood to reason a key piece of evidence was still missing. Yan Jiyun wasn’t sure if there was necessarily a connection between the two…
    • by Cristae Shi He’s hand rested on the top of the box, and at last, he made his decision. The Xubei Squad stood behind him, forming a circle. “Are you sure?” Zhong Yanqing asked one final time. Shi He took a deep breath. “I’m sure.” “Do you remember what our goal is?” The Xubei Squad, one by one, answered in unison: “To end the Hunger Game and win back a true future for human civilization.” Zhong Yanqing gave a bitter laugh. “Sigh, it was that bastard Bian Xu who used that line…
    • by Cristae Chapter 133: There’s a Cat Demon in the Instance "Is that player stupid, trying to tail our little cat? He really picked the wrong target this time." "Is this how you're supposed to play this instance? I’m confused. Did the cat really spot the killer so quickly? Can someone tell me who the murderer is?" "Are we sure it's even a killer? Isn't it possible it's just a coincidence?" "Huh? I thought this was an exam-style instance? I watched the opening and assumed it was all about test…
    • by Cristae Chapter 238 Trouble in the Cheng Family Yan Jiyun successfully obtained the second treasure map and quickly aligned it with the first. Since the system prompted him, it proved this map was genuine. The lines on this second map fit perfectly with the first, and when compared side by side, it became clear the treasure had little to do with the mountain—it was likely within Jiangnan Town itself. Still, there were discrepancies. He quickly realized this map had been drawn forty years ago; a lot must…
    • by Cristae Chapter 145: Scared, Weren’t You! After slipping cautiously out of the apartment building, Yan Jiyun jumped from Qi Feng’s arms and decided to lead him back to the teaching building. Qi Feng simply followed, even though he had no idea if the game had programmed something into his cat or if somehow his Caramel just knew what to do. He didn't dwell on it. Maybe, just maybe, the system had given Caramel his own cat-themed quest guide? You couldn’t predict logic when it came to different species; this…
    • by Cristae Chapter 104: Did You Get It? Yan Jiyun, following right behind Qi Feng, shut his eyes and jumped. In the past, he’d needed an NPC to carry him down just to hop off a curtain, but now, in this sudden moment, he leaped out into open sky just to catch up to his caretaker. If it hadn’t been for that impulse, he might never have dared jump at all. This was no building ledge—it was open sky, nothing underfoot but a plummet to the ground. Fortunately, he’d been skydiving before; otherwise, this…
    • by Cristae Chapter 120: Building Rapport Finding the dragon wasn’t the real challenge for Yan Jiyun—he could track it by scent alone. The hard part was, once he found it, how would he persuade it to help him? He’d heard from Andonis and Daniel at the city gate that there were still dragons in the arena, but those would certainly be heavily guarded. It made more sense to look for the escaped one—he trusted Qi Feng and Chu Mo’s experience could get the other two out. Yan Jiyun darted through streets…
    • by Cristae 【8:00 pm / 0 hours until the appreciation gathering】 The open area was once again surrounded by crowds. The Nest was closed off and crowded, so rumors spread fast. In just a few dozen minutes, nearly everyone knew what had transpired today. As Si Zhiyan walked into the square, the crowd parted before him like a tide, all manner of expressions following him. Some looked on with reverence, some with admiration, and others with a hint of veiled fear… Si Zhiyan smiled as he looked around,…
    • by Cristae Chapter 187: Replicant "Damn, I really want to rush in and drag cat cub back—he doesn't know anything, this damn game is driving me mad." "Exactly, so frustrating! If anything happens to cat cub, I won't ever be able to watch his streams again!" "But honestly, we just saw another cat cub—was that a mirror image or a copy-paste cat cub? What's the goal of this instance anyway?" "Feels like it's both. Could the ability to turn into a human be copied too? Can the copied cat cub change…
    • by Cristae Chapter 134: Outsmarting the List “Hahahaha! Finally, those three players woke up—and instead of guessing it was supernatural, they think the cat is a cat demon. I’m dying!” “I don’t care about the players, I care about the two men the cat’s been following. One’s Mr. Qu, but who’s the other? We’ve never seen his face, but from behind he looks a lot like Mr. Qu. Could Mr. Qu have a twin?” “I was just about to ask—is Mr. Qu a twin? Can anyone clarify? I’ve only played…
    • by Cristae Si Zhiyan smiled and nodded. 【Eye】 stared intently at the overlapping figures of Kazuko and Si Zhiyan, letting out a shrill cry, while the air around them trembled once more. She was weeping.She was full of regret, jealousy, on the verge of collapse, yet she would do everything in her power to let her sister live. The deadly blood mist still filled the air, but suddenly, a bloody rain began to fall. A torrential downpour crashed from the sky, each raindrop a dense, razor-sharp needle, carrying…
    • by Cristae Chapter 150: The Little Class Monitor The bell rang for the end of class— Lan Mo, Gu Wenzhu, and Qiu Xi burst out of their classrooms one after another. Gu Wenzhu, with his bad leg, was a bit behind, but the three immediately spotted the pair standing hand-in-hand in the hallway, being gawked at by both players and NPCs. A crowd of elementary school NPCs mercilessly stood by and mocked the two being punished. “You guys are so funny, why are you holding hands out here?” “Are you playing…
    • by Cristae Chapter 113 Big or Small Yan Jiyun spent 21 minutes clearing the Rat Door. The dealer asked him, “Would you like to enter the next Zodiac door immediately?” Yan Jiyun, full of questions, replied, “What kind of game is behind each door?” The game behind the Rat Door wasn’t much about gambling—it fit more with the championship theme. The dealer said, “I’m sorry, sir, I only oversee the Rat Door. I don’t know what the other doors have.” Thinking for a moment, the memory…
    • by Cristae Chapter 140: Professor Qu, Here I Come Yan Jiyun found Han Ruibai in the same classroom as in Instance A. It was break time. Han Ruibai was quietly making his way to the water dispenser at the back of the classroom. Yan Jiyun deliberately positioned himself beside Han Ruibai, pressing a hand to his chest, and, with urgency in his voice, confided to a nearby classmate, “I just came from the auditorium—Cheng Su fell from the second floor. She’s dead!” Hearing this, Han Ruibai’s face…
    • by Cristae Chapter 195: Let’s Go Farm Equipment Livestream Room: “I can’t stop laughing—the other players all think the kitten is a cold-blooded sniper, but in reality, he’s so nervous he’s shaking out his hands. The contrast is absolutely adorable.” “At this point, I’m only here for the kitten and his master. They’re growing more and more trusting of each other.” “Does the master still not know the kitten’s true identity? If the kitten is exposed, wouldn’t that be…
    • by Cristae Chapter 95: Who Are “They”? The corridors on B3 were more intricate than Yan Jiyun had first assumed; it wasn’t just the simple cross-shaped layout he remembered. He ran ahead, constantly searching for Room 319 just as Dr. Zhou had instructed. Yet, no matter how carefully he looked, he saw no such room at all. Every row ran from 1 to 8—there wasn’t even a number 9. Was Dr. Zhou playing a trick on him? There was no 319 at all. Suddenly, it dawned on Yan Jiyun: Dr. Zhou had sent him on…
    • by Cristae Countless densely packed words crawled chaotically, winding their way up the players’ pant legs, into their clothes, slithering with a rustling sound along their skin. “What the hell is this?!” Wang Jianguo was still in his saber-toothed tiger form when the words climbed up his fur, covering his entire body. Goosebumps erupted all over him. He shook himself fiercely, but the words kept climbing. They gnawed at him, saturated the ground, spreading everywhere, unavoidable. The words clung to…
    • by Cristae Chapter 175: Moral Blackmail This was the first time Yan Jiyun had ever heard the name Su Qiuming. He didn’t know who this person was, but he could guess it was someone who used to be close to Qi Feng, only to split bitterly for reasons unknown, never to cross paths again. The newcomer was from the New Vanguard Guild—apparently an enemy of Qi Feng’s. Yan remembered that the guild that burned down Qi Feng’s tavern stronghold was from New Vanguard. Later, he’d even blown up their…
