195: Chapter 195 Meeting
"However, the relationship between us is very pure, mainly because we have a superior-subordinate relationship." Jiang Xinyi patted Chen Mo's shoulder with a chuckle.
Chen Mo could only shrug and offer a smile.
"Anyway... it's for the best that you, President of the Paranormal Club, are still alive. I haven't yet experienced the feeling of being carried to victory."
Seeing the handsome youth before her, who wore a sincere and concerned expression, Jiang Xinyi bit her lip.
She immediately gave Chen Mo a hard shove, but fortunately, Chen Mo was a Magician.
Just as he was about to fall to the ground, he was able to quickly steady himself.
"Hurry home, it's getting late."
"You shouldn't enter the next dungeon; it's very dangerous."
After leaving those words, Chen Mo watched as Jiang Xinyi leaped, jumping directly over the 3-meter-high wall and entering the Villa area.
If she were a Saint Orderer, she wouldn't have such agile movements.
So... the Trickster's physical skills are also very strong? Did she lie to me again?
Her athletic ability is actually very strong.
Chen Mo scratched his cheek with his finger and sent a guild invitation to the President of the Paranormal Club.
With this, the number of guild members became 5.
However, when Chen Mo checked his message panel, he discovered another invitation.
It was Five Elements Lack Meat inviting Jiyin to join the Occult Research Society.
Regarding this female player named Jiyin, Chen Mo could say he felt both curious and endangered.
After all, she was a player he knew who possessed rule-type items, and her class abilities were extremely heaven-defying.
Even Chen Mo's current actions might be the result of her influence.
"Trickster, Astrologer, Magician—three hidden classes have appeared now, so why does it feel like the Magician is the most useless one?"
Chen Mo had originally thought he was a lucky person, but now it seemed... it was just dumb luck.
Anyway, this person had no ill intent, and she was still good friends with Xu Xiaoman.
One takes on the attributes of those one associates with, so she should still be considered a good person.
At worst, he could just kick her out of the guild.
Chen Mo accepted Five Elements Lack Meat's invitation.
Then, he saw a personal friend request: Jiyin requested to add you as a friend.
Chen Mo accepted that too.
As soon as he accepted, Jiyin sent three consecutive greeting emojis.
[Jiyin: Hehehe! Hello there, Many Children Many Blessings. Why are you named that? Is it because you're a pervert?]
Just after adding him as a friend, Jiyin sent this opening line.
[Many Children Many Blessings: Is the next dungeon you're entering "Liaozhai Afterword"? You mentioned before that I would be of help to you; that help must be to help you survive in the dungeon, right?]
[Jiyin: What? What? How did you know? It's impossible for you to know!]
[Many Children Many Blessings: Xu Xiaoman told me.]
[Jiyin: ...]
At this moment, Xu Xiaoman was having her temples repeatedly twisted by Jiang Xiaoyun's clenched fists.
Xu Xiaoman clutched her face, showing a pained and sad expression.
She kept begging for mercy, saying: "Xiaoyun, I was wrong. I just thought Chen Mo was a good person who could be trusted!"
Stretching out her two demonic claws again, she gave the little idiot a good lesson.
Only then did Jiang Xiaoyun feel satisfied.
[Jiyin: Forget it, let's just talk when we enter the guild.]
A request to enter the guild meeting room popped up before Chen Mo's eyes.
He clicked [Accept].
A flash of white light appeared before his eyes, and Chen Mo, transformed into a blue phantom, sat in the center of the meeting room.
Two other figures descended at the same time.
Stepping out of the blue light were Jiang Xinyi and Jiang Xiaoyun.
However, Jiang Xiaoyun was still wearing that crystal mask, revealing only her two pink pupils.
"This is our second time meeting, Guild Leader!" Jiang Xiaoyun placed her arm over her chest and bowed to Chen Mo.
This sudden politeness caught Chen Mo off guard.
Meanwhile, Jiang Xinyi, who was standing to the side, looked around before turning her gaze to the masked Jiang Xiaoyun.
"Teacher Jiyin, having read so many of your books, I guessed long ago that you must be female. After all, many of the stories within revolve around best friends."
"You even wrote many stories about first nights. Although you try to write male-oriented novels, your writing style and thoughts are still feminine, which is hard to change."
"Oh? Aren't you a fan of mine? Why does your tone have such an edge?" Jiang Xiaoyun's eyes narrowed slightly.
"Hehe, it's nothing, I just wanted you to give me an autograph."
As she spoke, Jiang Xinyi crossed her legs and tossed a book and a pen from her hand toward Jiang Xiaoyun.
That look of disdain was just like tossing an unwanted sausage to a dog on the side of the road.
Chen Mo was left speechless watching this. Is this a real fan?
Why does it seem like a fan from an opposing camp?
"Fine, I'll sign one for you, since you're being obedient." The corners of Jiang Xiaoyun's mouth curled up slightly.
She picked up the pen, signed her pen name on it, and then threw it back at Jiang Xinyi as if throwing away trash.
"Thanks!" Jiang Xinyi carefully hid the book under the table.
"Anyway... enough small talk. I've roughly seen a few things; let me share them with you."
"Do you have an LED screen here?" Jiang Xiaoyun asked.
"No."
"Fine, then I'll just write directly on this table."
Jiang Xiaoyun picked up the pen again and began writing and drawing on the table.
Jiang Xinyi and Chen Mo both stood up and gathered around the table to observe.
They discovered that what Jiang Xiaoyun had drawn was a Nine-Grid, and right next to that Nine-Grid, she had drawn a loach and some gold ingots.
"Is this the dungeon map? It's possible the entire map we enter is a Nine-Grid."
"As for this loach and the gold ingots, I don't know what they are." Chen Mo analyzed.
"The loach might be the dungeon's BOSS; judging by what Teacher Jiyin said, this is a Chinese-style dungeon."
"The gold ingots probably actually represent spirit money, the kind of thing burned for the dead."
"They often appear in folklore stories."
Jiang Xiaoyun nodded. "I've considered many possibilities for what you've said, and I've also seen your paths of destiny."
"Originally straight, but later it will experience a turning point; this is Jiang Xinyi's path of destiny."
"And... yours!" Jiang Xiaoyun suddenly raised her finger and pointed at Chen Mo.
She said: "Your path of destiny is very strange; it changes almost every day, just like a wavy line."
"It makes it very difficult for me, an Astrologer, as I can't calculate yours accurately at all."
Hearing the description, Chen Mo himself felt the same way.
"However... the last time I told your fortunes, it was because my level was higher than yours, or the same as yours, so I could perform calculations."
"But now, your levels are all higher than mine. I think it's necessary to modify the route, so... hehe."
Jiang Xiaoyun suddenly gave a mischievous smile, rubbed her hands together, and ran in front of Chen Mo.
Blinking her large, sparkling eyes, she said: "Chen Mo, can you share some of your EXP with me? Xu Xiaoman told me everything!"
"You have an item that can store EXP, and there's still 10,000 EXP in it."
