346: Chapter 346 Giant Mutant Dragon
As Lin Xiao was deep in thought, he suddenly noticed someone tagging him in the live chat.
It turned out to be some of the people who had been mocking him just a moment ago.
"Brother, you had so many outrageous things to say earlier, why aren't you talking now?"
"Come on, keep pretending to be a mystic!"
"Hurry up and explain what's going on with this village!"
"I really want to see how this 'Brother Outrageous' is going to explain what the Production Crew has designed!"
"..."
Seeing these questions and sarcastic remarks, Lin Xiao didn't take them to heart.
Because he suddenly realized that while he initially thought the plot resembled the Seven Star Palace, it now felt familiar in a different way.
It was like an ancient text he had studied when he was a child.
The kind that you had to memorize in its entirety.
As Lin Xiao was thinking, the live stream screen suddenly lagged.
The voices of the guests disappeared, followed by the screen.
It turned completely black.
The signal for the Live Stream Channel had actually been interrupted at this very moment!
Lin Xiao tried refreshing the interface, but there was still no response.
The chat was also in an uproar, with viewers speculating about whether something had happened over there.
Lin Xiao tried calling Lin Ran again, but it was still unreachable.
Fourth Sister's phone was the same.
There must be no signal in those desolate mountains.
Seeing that it was getting late, Lin Xiao turned off the stream.
Lying on his big bed, he used his phone to search for ancient texts with similar plots.
As he searched, he unknowingly fell asleep.
He didn't know how long he had slept when he suddenly heard the voice of the doomsday system in his mind.
[Host's location has been detected to have changed...]
Lin Xiao thought he was having auditory hallucinations and opened his eyes groggily.
When he saw his surroundings clearly, he sat up with a start.
"What the hell, what's going on?"
He saw that he was surrounded by a dense forest.
At this moment, he was lying on the dirt, with the moon and starry sky above him.
Thinking he was dreaming, he pinched his thigh hard.
The pain made his brain clear up.
It wasn't a dream!
He had really arrived in a desolate wilderness.
"doomsday system! Did you do this?"
"Are you crazy!"
"..."
Lin Xiao couldn't help but curse out loud.
In his opinion, there could be no other reason for him to appear in such a place other than the doomsday system acting up!
But the doomsday system ignored him.
A mechanical voice came from his mind once again.
[The apocalypse has broken out, and all communications have been interrupted.]
[You haven't had news of your relatives for a month.]
[Finally, on this day, you learned from a survivor that your sister and other survivors had hidden in these deep mountains.]
[You decide to set off to find your sister.]
...
Lin Xiao: ??
Did this trigger some kind of system bug?
How did this doomsday system suddenly turn into a Host for an escape room?
Also, did the system just say one month?
Did not only his location change, but time as well?
Lin Xiao wanted to reach for his phone.
However, he was currently wearing nothing but his pajama shorts.
Let alone a phone, he didn't even have toilet paper!
"doomsday system, don't mess with me!"
"No matter what, send me back first!"
"..."
Lin Xiao was practically in despair.
But the doomsday system didn't respond to him.
[You have arrived in the deep mountains. You haven't found traces of your sister yet, but you have encountered a Giant Mutant Dragon!]
[Task: Defeat it, and you will receive 10 lucky wheel spins.]
...
System, are you okay?
Are you just replying randomly?
Lin Xiao was on the verge of a breakdown.
It was already hard enough for him to survive in this wilderness wearing only pajama shorts.
Now there was some kind of Giant Mutant Dragon?
This was just trying to make him die faster!
He had no intention of doing the task right now; he just wanted to go home immediately.
But he had absolutely no way to do so.
Even with his Fortune Telling skills, he couldn't rely on that to hike home from these deep mountains!
Lin Xiao cursed the doomsday system countless times in his mind.
But soon he realized that the doomsday system completely ignored him.
After gradually calming down, he accepted his fate.
Thinking back, the system seemed to say he should come find his sister?
Could this be the mountain where Fifth Sister and her Production Crew were doing archaeology?
So the system's task was to guide him to find them?
If that was the case, then if he didn't do this task, there would be no next task.
He wouldn't be able to find Lin Ran.
And he wouldn't be able to go back!
It seemed he had no choice but to do this task.
But where was this so-called Giant Mutant Dragon?
Was it something he could even defeat?
He didn't even have a weapon on him; was he sure he was going to kill a dragon, and not just serve as food for it?
Helpless, he had to look around to see if there was anything he could use as a weapon.
To have at least a tiny bit of defensive capability before the dragon appeared.
A tree branch?
Too brittle!
A rock?
A bit too primitive.
Just as he was walking around searching, he suddenly felt like he had stepped on something under his feet.
He lifted his foot, bent down, and looked at the dirt by the moonlight.
Uh...
Not an earthworm, nor a snake.
It might sound absurd.
He had actually stepped on a roundworm!
That's right, that roundworm...
Looking up, he saw a pile of giant poop next to it!
No wonder he had felt the surrounding smell was strange from the beginning; he had originally thought it was the unique scent of this deep forest.
Judging from the traces in the mud, this roundworm had just crawled out of this pile of poop.
It seemed it had just crawled out when he mercilessly stepped on it and killed it!
[Host is valiant and mighty, killing the Giant Mutant Dragon in one move!]
[Congratulations to the Host for completing the task, you have received ten lucky wheel spins!]
...
Lin Xiao: ??
