Chapter 16: The Cannon Fodder Roommate of the Unlimited Flow Male Lead (Part 16-2)
Under the puzzled gazes of the others, Yu Lin took out a badge and placed it on the table.
Items from the Main God game generally could not be brought into the real world and were full of restrictions.
Especially some supernatural weapons, items, and things that could not possibly exist in the current world. They were forbidden to appear, as if by some rule.
Although the restrictions on items that existed in the real world were smaller, they were also unusable.
Most of what people could do to profit from the Main God game was to take black market orders or sell items in the game to obtain real-world currency.
But the badge in Yu Lin’s hand was actually S-rank, obviously not an insignificant item.
Yu Lin looked at it and explained softly, “This is an item that the system dropped after I cleared the last dungeon. Its name is the Boss’s Gift.”
Yu Lin pressed his lips together and said slowly, “But I recognize it.”
It was the badge that Chen Nianqiu had won for the first time, and it had stayed with him until the moment of his death.
Yu Lin didn’t know why he was willing to give it to him, but he found that he was not the first to obtain this level of item.
Yu Lin moved the mouse and opened an unpopular post on the forum.
In the post, the poster’s tone was terrified. He had taken a picture of a blood-red bow and asked, “Does anyone know what this is and how to use it?”
His mission clearance rating that time was very high, and he had also received an extra S-rank item: a blood-stained bow.
But the poster described that he had experimented with this bow and found that it was almost useless. On the contrary, because it could follow him into the real world, it had brought him a lot of pressure.
People below replied one after another, telling him to try it out next time he entered the instance. But after a long time, the poster did not reply.
“But the point is not this.” Yu Lin said, “This dungeon had been cycled once before the poster. But ever since this item dropped… no one has entered it again.”
Yu Lin looked up slightly and saw faces with various expressions.
Xu Zeze was completely stunned. He was a little dazed and a little stuttering. “Lin Lin, you… you’ve been organizing this all this time?”
He said, “That’s a lot of words.”
Luo Yang held his forehead and slapped him. Xu Zeze jumped up with a cry.
“En.” Yu Lin nodded. Seeing them interact, he couldn’t help but smile a little. “Actually, someone has raised questions before, but they just haven’t been systematically organized.”
Or perhaps they had been organized, but not shared.
“During this time, we…” Yu Lin looked up at Su Huai. Su Huai lowered his eyes to look at him, and the fingers resting on the desk paused slightly.
Yu Lin’s eyes curved slightly as he said softly, “We only found out after asking many people that the way to obtain this kind of item, besides violently killing the boss, is another thing that a few players have done, which is to fulfill a wish.”
“A wish?” Tan Ming looked over, obviously understanding. He frowned. “You mean?”
Yu Lin nodded lightly. “Fulfill the boss’s hidden wish.”
Xu Zeze scratched his hair, his face blank, and nudged Lin Bo with his elbow. “Baby Lin, explain?”
Lin Bo looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and pushed up his glasses. “To be honest, in this kind of world, fulfilling the wishes of ghosts, I can only think of one word in my knowledge system: salvation.”
“Fuck.” Xu Zeze cried out, “Then wouldn’t I become a monk?”
“…” Luo Yang looked at him speechlessly. “Little Yuezi, your hair… how about this, bro won’t be friends with you for nothing. Bro will shave your head for you?”
Xu Zeze glared at him and instantly covered his head.
This was actually a very terrifying topic, but Xu Zeze’s reaction had perfectly enlivened the atmosphere.
Yu Lin looked at them, then at the brand-new badge on the desk, and pressed his lips together slightly. “Actually, I’m not sure, but I did… find it. Twenty years ago, in a certain county in the north, a fire broke out in an internet cafe…”
Yu Lin briefly explained the matter of the last dungeon. He said, “So this possibility cannot be ruled out. The so-called Main God game, the bosses inside are not just bosses, but may also be… wandering souls in the human world.”
Xu Zeze’s goosebumps rose in an instant. He cried out, “Damn, then what the hell did I see before!”
“I don’t know, so I’ve organized all the information I can find about all the dungeons, as well as their connections to reality.”
Yu Lin said softly, “Everyone can take a look. It might be useful for future clearances.”
***
The summer cicadas chirped outside the window, and the night had completely fallen.
After distributing the materials, there was nothing else to do for the next few days.
Yu Lin had just finished his shower and was sitting on the head of the bed reading a book in loose pajamas. His head was lowered, his black hair slightly hanging down, revealing a little of his fair collarbone.
A month was a long time for summer. The wind outside had become a little restless.
There were still a few days before entering the instance. Today, he had finally finished organizing the materials. According to everyone’s experience, it should be helpful if they encountered a similar situation.
A corner of the quilt was lifted. Yu Lin paused, closed the book, and placed it on the bedside table.
He stretched out his arm and was then picked up.
Then, his lips were held, and a hot tongue probed in. Yu Lin opened his mouth, his breathing as light as possible, but in the end, he was kissed until his eyelids were slightly wet and his mind was blank.
He pressed his lips together, recovered for a while, and slowly climbed up, looking into Su Huai’s eyes. He then tilted his head and touched Su Huai’s lips.
His tone was puzzled. “Why weren’t you kissed dizzy by me?”
His tone was also a little aggrieved.
Su Huai looked at him, his Adam’s apple bobbed. He reached out, pushed his soft black hair back, revealing his smooth and fair forehead.
He leaned over, kissed Yu Lin’s eyelids, and coaxed him, “Why don’t you try again?”
Yu Lin hesitated for a moment, knelt on his lap, sat up a little straighter, leaned towards him, kissed him on the lips, stuck out his tongue, and licked it for a while.
Then came a long kiss.
After it was over, Su Huai reached out, held him in his arms, and then ruffled the head resting on his shoulder, and patted his back. “Go to sleep.”
Yu Lin blinked. He didn’t reject this kind of pre-sleep intimacy and even liked it very much. But he was still thinking about another matter. “I still haven’t… helped you…”
He blushed. In a sober state, Yu Lin couldn’t say this word.
But he always felt that it was unfair. It seemed that only Su Huai had helped him like this, and he had never helped Su Huai like this.
Su Huai always went to take cold showers.
Under the warm light of the bedroom, Yu Lin sat up straight, lowered his eyes to look over, and in his beautiful eyes, there was a swirling amber-colored wine.
It made one unable to help but lose control.
But Su Huai was always reluctant to let him do this kind of thing. After a moment of silence, he looked at him, his large palm threading through his hair, and ruffled it, and said in a low voice, “No need.”
Yu Lin pressed his lips together and kept looking at him.
Su Huai was silent for a moment. The hand on his waist slid down, slipped into his clothes, and bit his lips, and said hoarsely, “Let’s try something else.”
“…”
In the end, he couldn’t control himself, and his legs were a little red from the friction. Su Huai got up and found some ointment to apply.
Yu Lin was asleep, lying in his arms.
Su Huai helped him apply the ointment and gently lifted his leg. He felt that it was strange and trembled a little, but he never dodged.
In the end, it was too uncomfortable, and he was a little awake, but still sleepy, so he could only say softly, “…I want to sleep.”
Su Huai held him, and for a moment, he really didn’t know how to like him.
***
Because he had spent several days memorizing the materials, when he entered the instance, Xu Zeze rarely put down his anxiety and rubbed his fists. “I’ll definitely make it quick this time.”
Yu Lin reminded him, “The speed of change in the dungeon is very fast. The materials I’ve organized are just for reference.”
Lin Bo sat beside him with a book, pushed up his glasses, and had a rare serious expression. “Bro, you can’t leave your stick.”
Few people knew that Xu Zeze, with his clear and foolish face, had actually learned martial arts as a child.
Xu Zeze: “I know, I know.”
He waved his hand. In the living room, the few people were scattered in pairs and were not sitting together.
Su Huai had once said that this was what they had requested, because the dungeon world was ever-changing, and no one could be protected forever.
When he said it, he had kissed Yu Lin’s eyelids, was silent for a while, and then suddenly said… when things stabilized a little, he would teach Yu Lin how to adapt to the dungeon world.
He had said not to be afraid.
At that time, Yu Lin’s eyelids and lips were all red, his mind was blank, and it took him a long time to react before he realized that he was the one who was afraid.
Yu Lin wanted to tell him that he would be fine, but to describe it so directly was almost like directly saying that he was another person, which was a serious violation of the rules.
And language was the system’s first judgment method, and it was generally recognized as the most difficult way to exploit a bug.
Yu Lin hesitated for a moment and decided to do something in the next dungeon.
He looked up and found that Xu Zeze’s hands were empty, but from his posture, he had just performed a stick flourish.
His posture was casual, and although it was still immature, it could be seen that his future strength would not be bad.
Unconsciously, it was 12:00 at night.
With the first experience, entering the instance was much smoother this time. He closed his eyes and opened them again, and the scene in front of him had already changed from a clean and bright living room to a wilderness.
The rotten land stretched to the horizon, boundless and endless.
In the vast, blurry darkness, the abrupt cluster of buildings in front of him was like an isolated island. Yu Lin took two steps forward and saw a dilapidated village.
The desolate moonlight shrouded down from above, pale and dim.
The surroundings were empty.
This was a much more dangerous world than the last time, Yu Lin judged.
He pressed his lips together. His body received the signal, and his fingers uncontrollably became cold.
Yu Lin looked up and saw a tattered red flag inserted diagonally on the winding country dirt road. The flag was bright red, with the words “Zhao Family Village” written on it.
Making a strategy was useful. At least at this moment, even if this place was empty, Yu Lin knew what it was.
This was a cyclical dungeon, Zhao Family Village’s Wedding Procession.
In the scattered memories of the many players who had escaped with their lives using items, Yu Lin learned that Zhao Family Village was a small village in the Republican era, located in a remote area, with almost no communication with the outside world.
However, during the war, the smoke of gunpowder rose everywhere, breaking the tranquility of this village.
In the incomplete background that the players had understood in the past, Zhao Family Village had welcomed a passing warlord at this time. The warlord was tall and sturdy, and he had fallen in love with the most beautiful girl in Zhao Family Village at first sight, and they had mutual feelings for each other.
The girl’s name was Zhao Yilan.
Yilan had studied, was well-educated and beautiful. She only had an older brother at home, but he was diligent and capable, had already married, and even had a little niece.
The relationship between the villagers of Zhao Family Village was very good. Her brother doted on Yilan even more. For Yilan’s wedding, the whole village had been preparing for several days, and they were going to send Yilan off to be married in a festive atmosphere.
And the players, according to their identities, were all guests from other villages invited by Zhao Family Village to watch the wedding.
However, what was strange was that all the players who had escaped from this instance were scared out of their wits. They could only vaguely say a few deadly traps, but they couldn’t clearly explain what they had encountered.
Even with a simple strategy, this instance was very wrong.
Yu Lin couldn’t understand it at that time, but now he knew.
Indeed, everything was wrong.
In the other players’ descriptions, it was clearly a relatively wealthy and festive village that had invited people to watch a wedding and was preparing to marry off a bride. But what he saw was all gray and dilapidated soil and broken tiles.
The dilapidated mud houses were on the verge of collapse, and the walls were densely covered with cobwebs, as if no one had lived there for a long time.
These houses were arranged in rows on the rotten land. As night fell, the distant horizon was a desolate and endless expanse.
It was as if everyone else had already moved forward, and only it was left behind alone.
And in this village, even though it was so dilapidated, every household had a brand-new red lantern hanging in front of their door, with the character for “joy” used for weddings pasted on it.
Everything seemed out of place.
Yu Lin stood under the tattered flagpole and could almost smell the stench of the gray and dilapidated soil.
He pressed his lips together and was about to move forward when he found a woman with beautiful features standing under the red lantern at the entrance of the village, facing him. She was dressed in red, her face pale, and she was smiling slightly at him.
