    Asianovel

    The world's first crowdsourcing-driven asian bl novel translation community

    Xiao Lan left Wang Taidi's room and walked alone in the player's quarters in the dark.

    Before, he asked Wang Teddy if he needed his help to pass the customs, but was rejected by Wang Teddy.

    Wang Taidi's attitude was firm: "I'm already an intermediate player, and I still have my own skills. My brother also arranged a lot of combat training for me before, and gave me so many props."

    "I don't lack experience in customs clearance, nor do I lack anything, but I have never tried to carry it all by myself before."

    "This time I have to rely on my own strength to upgrade."

    "If I can't even do this, why should I save my brother?"

    At that moment, the cheerfulness and optimism he had cultivated under Wang Ke's protection seemed to be stripped away.

    Like a cub that had lost its shelter, the boy began to try to show his fangs and claws.

    Although he still looked haggard, after noticing the look in his eyes, Xiao Lan let go of his previous worries.

    People with such eyes will not die easily.

    Maybe soon, there will be such a teenager in the queue of advanced players.

    ——

    The player station at night is still full of people. Almost every moment someone clears the game, and there are players who never come back.

    On the way, Xiao Lan overheard the conversation between the two players.

    "Have you heard? Something strange happened in the novice field recently."

    "If you have a fart, let it go, don't say half of it."

    "Hey, what's your attitude! Forget it... I heard that there was a newcomer who killed other newcomers in the whole game. Pay attention to killing, not using the rules to kill."

    "How is that possible?! He wasn't killed by the NPC transformed by the player..."

    "Who knows, maybe there's a bug. But it's true. The old player who entered the match said after he escaped. That kid seems to have been practicing swords originally, and his shots are very ruthless."

    "Why does it sound like you made it up?"

    "Fuck, what did I make up for?!! Now many people know it, you can ask whatever you want. That guy has cleared the customs, maybe he can see it when, anyway, I don't want to match that killer."

    The two junior players walked away noisily.

    Xiao Lan's brows furrowed.

    This kind of wanton killing of players without punishment reminded him of the chase he saw in his dream, but that was a long time ago, and the rules of coming to the world have changed.

    Why does it happen again?

    Is it coming that the world is quietly changing?

    This is not good news...

    Xiao Lan returned to the room and talked to Luo about the Wang brothers.

    Luo's action of pouring tea was slow and slow, and he said lightly: "Maybe this is a better development for them. It's hard for me to see hope from them as they always do."

    Later, the two chatted about the conversation Xiao Lan heard on the road.

    But because there is so little information, it is difficult to analyze what. It may be that the world has changed, or it may be just a bug.

    The rest of the time, Xiao Lan basically spent between training and returning to the real world to rest.

    Occasionally contact Wang Teddy to make sure that the other party is still alive and kicking.

    Soon half a year will pass.

    Finally, the time to enter the game has come again.

    ——

    Because it was the first time to enter the high-level field, Xiao Lan raised all the alerts.

    He originally thought that the danger of the advanced field would start from the time he entered the game, and even prepared for the battle.

    Unexpectedly, after the darkness faded, the surrounding environment was very lively and full of fireworks.

    This is on a moving train.

    Unlike the dark, old and empty train at No. 13 subway station, this train looks like it is going through some kind of vacation. There are many passengers on the train, men and women, young and old, chatting, eating, and playing cards everywhere. Yes.

    Accents from all over the place are intertwined, forming a lively and leisurely scene.

    It doesn't look any different from those who travel by train in real life.

    This is also the most lively scene Xiao Lan has seen in the game since entering the world.

    At this time, he and Luo were sitting face to face, and there were no other passengers next to them.

    Xiao Lan looked around, but didn't see anyone suspected of being a player. After feeling the intermediate level, he came to the world and liked to separate the players more and more.

    On the table in front of them, some books and papers were placed in a mess.

    According to the settings, these should be what they are looking at, presumably the prompts the game gives the player.

    The train is still moving forward, and it will not stop for a while.

    Xiao Lan then checked what was in front of her.

    Some notebooks, and tickets, and an envelope.

    There is also a cover picture book of horror novels. The cover of each book looks terrifying and weird. The author is a writer named Raven, and I don't know what collection value this thing has.

    On the other side is a diary.

    It is really rare for people to have the habit of keeping a diary in this day and age

    But after opening it, Xiao Lan felt that it was not so much a diary as it was a book of reading notes and a collection of rainbow farts for Teacher Crow.

    [On February 26th, every word written by Mr. Crow is the ultimate creativity of the creator. How can mortals reach this level]

    [On March 3, every punctuation mark of Teacher Crow is perfect, and there is a priceless treasure hidden in it]

    [On May 24th, after reading this book, I feel that I have found the meaning of life, my soul, my mind, and everything are shouting for Mr. Crow]

    The above praised Mr. Crow's work at a large scale, with exaggerated and nauseous words, and even listed Crow as his life mentor many times.

    It's as if the owner of this diary is not reading any horror novels, but religious or inspirational works.

    Obviously, the role played by Xiao Lan is simply the author's crow's avid book fan.

    It still looks like...the kind whose brain is about to break-

    Brain powder.

    Xiao Lan turned her attention to Luo's side: "How is your side?"

    Luo raised his head and turned what he was looking at to Xiao Lan:

    【Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! ! ! I love crows! ! ! I'm going to give birth to a monkey for Teacher Crow! ! ! ! ! ! 】

    [Crow Crow (Love) Crow Crow (Love) Crow Crow (Love) Crow Crow (Love) Crow Crow (Love) Crow Crow (Love) Crow Crow (Love) Crow Crow (Love) Crow Crow (Love)]

    With so many words arranged together, there is no sound, but it makes people feel that their eyes are disturbed.

    The crazy confession on paper, with Luo Shenjing's expression and elegant posture, has a different kind of joy.

    Xiao Lan: "..."

    The identity Luo drew seems to be more ill.

    What kind of magic does this author named Raven have? How come every book lover looks like this.

    He continued to focus on the table, but unfortunately there was no crow's book on the table for him to read.

    Xiao Lan dug out a handbook among a pile of papers, which was filled with various printed news and cut out newspapers, all about the disappearance of the writer Crow.

    From the information compiled, the crow has been missing for nine years.

    After Raven's disappearance, there was a trend among his readers to find Raven, looking for any clues about Raven's disappearance, hoping to find him.

    Even nine years later, there are still old readers who will not give up, and new readers who are interested in it.

    According to the information in the handbook.

    The last place where the crow was found was a private villa in the suburbs.

    This is a building built in the period of the Republic of China. The style is a bit of a combination of Chinese and Western styles. Later, it was bought by the crow as a private residence for his writing, and it was renamed Mingyue Pavilion.

    Crows like to collect all kinds of retro things and decorate them in the Naruto Pavilion.

    So this villa used to be very famous among collectors.

    But after the crow disappeared, rumors of haunting often spread in Mingyue Pavilion.

    With the evidence of nearby residents and the spread of good people, people who want to buy have all given up their thoughts, and after that, no one cares about this place.

    It is also written in red on the handbook:

    【These stupid guys have no taste! I don't deserve to own the house of Teacher Crow at all]

    This time the destination they are going to go to is this villa.

    Because both received an unsigned invitation letter that read—

    "For Teacher Crow's new work."

    The address where they were invited to the party was the legendary haunted Naruto Mansion.

    Then these two fools came, and the destination of their tickets was exactly where Mingyue Pavilion was located.

    They are really two little masters who want to kill themselves. They dare to go to such an appointment. Xiao Lan doesn't know whether to say they are hard-headed or die...

    It's like two leeks, not only sent to the door to be cut, but also washed clean.

    Is this chives?

    No, this is the king of chives, the king of chives.

    Luo put down the information in his hand: "Humans' pursuit of idols is really interesting. According to human standards, this kind of behavior seems to be called - brain-dead?"

    Xiao Lan said with a blank expression: "According to the character design, it is the two of us who are acting as idiots now."

    Luo: "..."

    What a precious experience.

    Brainless Xiao and Brainless Luo are riding the train to their destination of death.

    ——

    The two got off the train and followed the instructions on the invitation letter to the rumored villa, Mingyue Pavilion.

    Just as they stood in front of Mingyue Pavilion, they heard the system prompt:

    "Ding-dong-"

    "..."

    Xiao Lan waited for a while, but didn't hear anything.

    As if the system put a dumb fart.

    This dungeon did not give the player the slightest hint. Is the advanced field so fierce?

    Before they rang the doorbell, the door opened by itself.

    The person who opened the door was a middle-aged man in a butler's uniform. He was extremely thin, but he had a round beer belly, his hair was meticulously combed, and he had a very retro mustache.

    "Hello, I'm the housekeeper of Mingyue Pavilion. You are welcome to come here." The housekeeper bowed deeply to them.

    This bow is too formal compared to the kind used to entertain guests.

    It is more like the bowing used to the deceased at the farewell ceremony, which makes people feel a little uncomfortable.

    Then, the housekeeper checked the invitation letters of the two and let them in after confirming that it was correct.

    According to the character design, Xiao Lan praised her idol's villa: "As expected of the residence of Teacher Crow, this place is really special."

    He still called the crow a teacher according to the statement in the diary.

    But forget about the rainbow fart... this is too hard to be strong, of course, if you have to blow it, it is not impossible for Xiao Lan.

    Hearing this, the housekeeper showed a proud expression: "Yes, everything here is decorated by Mr. Crow himself."

    Xiao Lan asked, "Why are you so sure?"

    The housekeeper said, "Because I saw Teacher Crow put them up with my own eyes, and I also participated in the placement of some of the collections."

    Xiao Lan took the opportunity to ask, "When did you come here to be a housekeeper?"

    The housekeeper smiled: "When I bought Mingyue Pavilion from Teacher Crow, I was already the housekeeper here."

    Xiao Lan: "Then do you know anything about Teacher Crow?"

    Hearing this, the butler showed a strange look: "Mr. Crow... very mysterious. I rarely see him except for the handover of work."

    It seemed that he didn't know as much about crows as Xiao Lan thought.

    Xiao Lan: "Then...how much do you know about Teacher Crow's disappearance?"

    The butler remained silent.

    It seems that he won't reveal the secrets related to the employer out of professional ethics, but he can find a chance to have a good friendship and exchange in the future.

    Xiao Lan and Luo secretly exchanged glances.

    Xiao Lan changed the question: "Who initiated this gathering, do you know?"

    Unexpectedly, the housekeeper shook his head: "I don't know, originally I was only employed by Mr. Crow's family, and came to Mingyue Pavilion to supervise the cleaning and maintenance every week. I received a letter a few days ago, informing me to come to Mingyue Pavilion. Tsukikan welcomes incoming guests."

    Xiao Lan: "Don't you think it's strange?"

    The housekeeper said, "I'm just a housekeeper, doing my job, that's all."

    When he said this, there was no wave in his eyes, and he didn't seem to care what would happen to the people who were summoned.

    Seemingly not wanting to talk anymore, the butler said, "The guests who arrived early have already entered their rooms, so I'll take the two of you to your room."

    After he finished speaking, he prepared to lead the way for the two of them.

    At this time, the door opened again.

    At this moment, the housekeeper was standing beside Xiao Lan and the others, some distance from the door. There was no mechanical device on the door that could open the door, and even the people outside the door did not fully reach the door.

    But the door just opened.

    Used to seeing the wind and waves of supernatural events, Xiao Lan said that he was very calm.

    Don't you just open the door? There is nothing to be afraid of, as long as it is not a boss who suddenly rushes in and slashes at the player, everything is easy to say.

    All eyes turned to the door.

    A man wearing a retro gorgeous black trench coat, a black wide-brimmed top hat, and a suitcase entered the door.

    He is tall and thin, with white hair and the iconic beak mask on his face.

    As long as the people who have seen it, I am afraid that no one can forget him.

    The person who came in was Qi Ning.

    Qi Ning also saw Xiao Lan, and he nodded to Xiao Lan as a greeting.

    Then he turned to Xiao Lan: "The speed of your growth really surprised me. I didn't expect to meet you here now."

    Here, nature refers to the advanced field.

    Xiao Lan returned: "I can't live up to your expectations, no."

    Seeing that the guests who came here seemed to have the intention of reminiscing about the past, the butler kindly led them to the lounge, arranged refreshments, and informed the three of their room locations.

    Before leaving, the housekeeper specially warned: "Tomorrow, the guests will get clues about Teacher Crow's new work."

    After that, the butler left, leaving the lounge to the guests.

    Qi Ning casually leaned against the armrest of the chair: "You should know about Wang Ke."

    Xiao Lan nodded.

    Qi Ning asked, "Is he really dead?"

    Xiao Lan stared at him, but unfortunately he couldn't see anything through the mask: "You seem to pay a lot of attention to them."

    Qi Ning's tone was calm: "They are so special. For those who are in the dark, they can't help but look at them. They expect them to be safe, and they can't help but hope that they will fall."

    Xiao Lan: "What about you? Which side are you?"

    Qi Ning thought for a while: "I watch too much in the dark, and sometimes I also want to watch a bit of a clichéd happy ending."

    Xiao Lan didn't say what Wang Teddy told him, just said, "Perhaps, you can look forward to it."

    Qi Ning said with a smile in his tone: "It seems that their story will not end so soon."

    Xiao Lan asked Qi Ning's purpose: "Did you come in normally, or did you find the prey again?"

    "Hehehe..." Qi Ning smiled lowly, with his usual hoarseness of lack of qi and blood, he sounded like a patient, but no one dared to underestimate him.

    "I, of course, came to find happiness."

    The source of Qi Ning's happiness is naturally the fugitives.

    If they knew that they would be hunted by such terrible hunters after entering the world, would they regret the sins they had committed.

    Qi Ning added: "Don't worry, killing people in high-level fields is not as dangerous as middle-level and low-level players, because players who die in high-level fields will hardly be converted into NPCs. Even if they are lucky enough to become NPCs, they are not necessarily worse than before their death. Stronger. I can kill when I live, but what am I afraid of when I die.”

    Xiao Lan was a little surprised, this was something he never knew before.

    Qi Ning said: "The most dangerous thing in the high-level field is actually the players. There will always be people who like to see others struggling in despair. Mutual killings between high-level players happen from time to time, but it's just that the junior and intermediate players don't know."

    Xiao Lan frowned: "Why is this happening?"

    Qi Ning fiddled with the brim of his hat and said lightly: "It seems that the protection system is not perfect. The existing system is not enough to prevent high-strength players from killing. It's like a transformation that has only been completed halfway."

    Hearing this, Luo's eyes flickered slightly, but he didn't say anything.

    "Would you like to come and play? I can share one of my goals with you. Too many will not work." Qi Ning said generously.

    Xiao Lan noticed the "divide one for you" in his words. Did he have more than one goal? !

    Dare to 1Vn in the advanced field, brother, you are really fierce.

    Xiao Lan shook her head and refused: "Thank you, gentlemen don't take people's favor, you should keep your happiness."

    "Then I'll play by myself, hahaha..." Qi Ning laughed, his back trembled, his laughter was low and hoarse with a bit of bloody madness.

    It looks a bit like a perverted murderer.

    etc……

    Not what he looks like, he actually is.

    Qi Ning is a model for educating everyone not to commit crimes.

    When a wanted criminal, he will be chased to death by Qi Ning.

    If you think about it like this, is your heart filled with a sense of justice, and you never want to commit a crime in this life?
