220: Chapter 220 Pets
Chen Mo tried pressing the gray square, and a game prompt popped up before his eyes.
[You can only enter other people's dungeons during combat, and you are only allowed to enter adjacent squares.]
[You cleared the middle square, so all squares are accessible. Remaining attempts: 2.]
Seeing this, Chen Mo understood. The reasoning process must be carried out by the players themselves who enter, while he could only assist during combat.
Two chances—that would be enough to help the Club President and Jiyin.
"What did this dead teammate go through?"
Pressing the square in the top-left corner, Chen Mo successfully viewed the death process.
It was a science and engineering student who looked similar to Meng Zhou, but unlike Meng Zhou, he had quite a lot of hair.
He wore a curly hairstyle full of The Artist's temperament.
His mission was to help fishermen cross the river.
However, in ancient times, shipping conditions were poor. Just crossing the Yangtze River would take several hours.
Unlike now, where taking a cruise ship takes at most ten-odd minutes.
And who knows what these fishermen were thinking, specifically choosing to cross the river on dark, windy nights.
This player naturally discovered that the identities of these fishermen were not simple.
On the surface, they were fishermen, but in reality, they were all water bandits.
The player was role-playing as the river ferryman, who usually led tourists across the river or helped relatives salvage the bodies of those who drowned in the river.
Also known as a corpse salvager.
This dungeon was not difficult, and the water bandits' goal was naturally not to take his life.
What truly caused his death and sank the entire boat was actually the water monkey at the bottom of the water.
A water monkey, or water ghost, is formed by the souls of those who drowned at the bottom of the water.
From a scientific perspective, there are differences in the body structures of females and males.
After a female dies, she generally lies on the water surface face up, while a male lies on the water surface face down.
But there is another special situation: people who died unjustly still have one breath left in their bodies, so their corpses neither float nor lie on their backs.
Instead, they stand straight up in the water!
This is the condition for the formation of a water monkey.
Therefore, if you see a corpse standing in the water, one word!
"Run!"
Two words: "Run fast!"
This player did not understand folklore. Seeing the water monkey standing in the water, he thought it was a distressed village woman and wanted to save her.
He also wanted to see if he could obtain a skill card or something similar.
Unexpectedly, it was completely different from the dungeons he had encountered before.
What he fished up was a nightmare.
It directly caused a total party wipe.
"Interesting. Let's check Jiyin's dungeon." Chen Mo was just about to reach out and click the square on his right.
A seductive voice rang in his ears.
"Husband~, now that you've left, what will I do in the future!"
Chen Mo turned his head and saw a pair of autumn-water-bright eyes appearing before him, very close to him, almost close enough to kiss.
"You… shouldn't you be staying in the dungeon?"
Appearing before Chen Mo was none other than Second Miss, wearing the red bridal veil.
"Husband, you are truly too heartless. You took away my sister, and now that I am left alone in that empty, spacious mansion, what can I do?"
"I have already been favored by you, Husband. The world knows that you are my man. Are you going to let me live as a widow all alone?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Mo could not help but be puzzled.
I already took away the Eldest Miss? What does this mean?
A small Paper Doll suddenly crawled out of Chen Mo's pocket, jumped out, and then transformed.
It transformed into the Eldest Miss, who was equally beautiful but possessed a hint of a mature woman's aura.
The Eldest Miss bowed slightly, performed a salute to Chen Mo, and then said proudly: "Little sister, what nonsense are you spouting?"
"I was the first to receive Husband's favor!"
Upon hearing this, Second Miss continued to argue.
"Husband and I are the couple in the public eye; we are the ones who are legitimate!"
"Hmph, if it's not true love, it would be better to elope and have a good time."
"Sister, you've gone too far! And… you are now nothing but a remnant soul of my sister."
"So what? As long as the face looks like this, I am the sister!"
"Speak! Who do you like the most?!" After arguing for a long time, the two women suddenly aimed their hostility at Chen Mo.
Chen Mo's train of thought couldn't quite keep up, so he raised his hand to stop the two ghost women from arguing.
He said: "Eldest Miss, do you mean… you have merged with my item?"
The Eldest Miss nodded.
"Then, right now, Second Miss is lacking a place to stay."
Second Miss also nodded.
"That's easy to solve. Can't you just possess another Paper Doll?"
"That won't do!" Second Miss bit her lower lip lightly.
"I am Husband's wife; how can I be on equal footing with that mistress?"
"You!" The Eldest Miss's eyes widened.
"Uh… how about this: I will cast a secret technique on you, allowing you to follow my orders at any time."
"Acceptable!"
Chen Mo clicked the Pet function and successfully subdued Second Miss.
[Name: Su Wanqing]
[Type: Qi-Eating Ghost]
[Attributes: Unknown]
[HP: 2000/2000]
[MP: 2000/2000]
[Mental Value: 2000/2000]
[Affection: 80/100]
[Item: red bridal veil, ID: B166]
Seeing the data pop up before his eyes, Chen Mo was stunned.
What the hell? Second Miss's Mental Value is higher than his?
Moreover, it should be said that all her stats are on the high side; this must be a Level 25 stat panel, right?
And this red bridal veil—since he could previously use the wordless heavenly book to control the two women's bodies and could distribute his items for them to use, surely he must be able to use this red bridal veil himself.
Chen Mo reached out his hand and said: "Wife, lend me the red bridal veil."
Second Miss, having been taken as a pet, could not resist her master's request because her base Affection was already very high.
She immediately handed the red bridal veil to Chen Mo.
"As expected. In that case…"
Chen Mo looked at the Eldest Miss again, and the Eldest Miss panicked and turned back into a Paper Doll.
Waving her little yellow hands, she said: "I don't have anything to give you!"
"The red candle—the red candle that can make those Paper Dolls stop moving—you can at least give me that."
In the end, the Eldest Miss honestly handed the red candle to Chen Mo.
"Not bad. I've managed to get two more usable items and increased my combat power. I'm no longer just one person; I'm actually leading a three-person team."
Chen Mo reached out his hand.
He let the Paper Doll that the Eldest Miss had transformed into leap onto his palm.
Several lines of information appeared before his eyes.
[Item: Heavenly Book Paper Doll, ID: A099]
[Active Skill 1: Position Swap, can swap positions with the Paper Doll.]
[Active Skill 2: Can transfer self-inflicted damage to the Paper Doll, letting the Paper Doll bear it for you.]
[Active Skill 3: Can be used to control others' bodies to fight, provided that your Mental Value is higher than the opponent's.]
