4 God, you tricked me!
4 God, you tricked me!
Inside the Mu family villa.
Mu's father and Xiao Rou were both extremely anxious.
Mr. Mu, who was known in the business world for his composure and ruthlessness and who remained calm even when faced with a multi-billion dollar acquisition, was now completely flustered and paced back and forth in the living room.
"Dad, stop spinning me! It's making me dizzy!" Mu Yunni sat on the sofa, her plump body pressing down on the sofa.
However, compared to the anxiety of Mu's father and others, Mu Yunni seemed completely unaffected.
Mr. Mu suddenly stopped and turned around, his eyes already red.
"Yunni... my daughter..." His voice choked with sobs, "You, you've always been outstanding, never causing your father a single worry, how... how did you end up like this? First that damned curse, and now... now you've been chosen by this dreadful three-star dungeon! What... what terrible things have you done to deserve this?!"
The more Mu's father spoke, the more heartbroken he became, and he aged several years in an instant.
Seeing her father so anxious that he shed tears, Mu Yunni felt a surge of emotion.
"Dad, Dad, please don't be like this. Don't you trust your daughter's abilities? I've been through so many dungeons and I'm still fine. I've seen all kinds of storms, and this time will be the same."
Mr. Mu wiped away his tears. "I trust her, I trust her. My daughter is so outstanding, of course I trust her. It's just... it's just... your fate... oh dear..."
Xiao Rou wiped away her tears for a long time, her eyes were red and swollen.
"Miss... Waaaaah..."
"Oh dear..." Mu Yunni said helplessly, "Dad, Xiaorou, it's not that bad. It hasn't even started yet. Looking at you two like this, anyone who didn't know better would think I'd already died in the dungeon!"
"Pah! Pah! Pah!" Father Mu's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly interrupted, "Children's words are innocent, they'll be blown away by the wind! You can't talk nonsense!"
Xiao Rou quickly added, "Miss, please say 'Pah, pah, pah,' what you just said doesn't count."
Seeing their nervous expressions, Mu Yunni felt a warmth in her heart and obediently whispered, "Okay, ptooey, ptooey, that doesn't count."
Mr. Mu quickly calmed down. "We need to think of a way, yes, yes, we need to think of a way..."
He looked at the list and suddenly his eyes lit up. "Hey, there's one person from Great Xia among these ten. Great! I'll send someone to find him right away, give him a large sum of money, and make sure he protects my daughter."
As he spoke, Mu's father took out his phone, ready to find Qin Mian at all costs.
"Hey, Miss, this name sounds familiar?" Xiao Rou stared at the name Qin Mian, somewhat puzzled.
Mu Yunni nodded in agreement, "Hmm, it does sound familiar."
"Oh dear, miss, where's your marriage certificate?" Xiaorou suddenly remembered something.
"Marriage certificate?" Mu Yunni was stunned for a moment, her eyes turning strange. "This... can't be such a coincidence, can it?"
"Miss, quick, quick, check the last few digits of the ID number on the marriage certificate!" Xiaorou was extremely anxious, clasping her hands together, "Amitabha, Buddha, please protect me, it can't be just one person!"
"What's wrong? What's going on with you two?" Father Mu looked at the two of them with a puzzled expression.
Xiao Rou said with a bitter face, "Miss, the person who got married in the 'Single is a Crime' scenario is named Qin Mian."
"Oh? What a coincidence!" Mr. Mu was somewhat surprised. "Well, isn't that a good thing? This certificate is valid for three years. If one party dies, the other party will also be unable to complete the mission. Then the other party will definitely work even harder to protect Yun Ni."
Hearing this, Xiaorou's face turned even uglier. "Sigh, at that point, I'm afraid we won't know who will protect whom?"
"What do you mean?" Mr. Mu hadn't had time to ask about the marriage partner his daughter had personally chosen, but he trusted Mu Yunni's judgment and thought it shouldn't be bad.
Mu Yunni was really anxious this time. She hurriedly took out the marriage certificate, and when she saw the last two digits of Qin Mian's number, her heart sank.
For the first time, she had an emotional breakdown and threw a tantrum at the sofa next to her with a cushion.
"Oh dear... this... really, is this some kind of deliberate dungeon god doing this on purpose?!"
"What's wrong...?" Mr. Mu's heart skipped a beat.
I wasn't this excited when Mu Yunni was selected to enter the three-star dungeon.
Why do I break down emotionally as soon as I see my marriage certificate?
Xiao Rou saw it too, and immediately burst into tears.
"Waaaaah, oh my god, Miss, why is your life so miserable!"
"This...this..." Father Mu hurriedly grabbed the marriage certificate, but upon seeing that round face, he froze, his body swaying as he nearly fell. Then, he looked up to the sky and cried out, "God, why are you doing this to my Yun Ni? I hate you..."
"Yunni, Yunni, why did you choose such a... oh dear..." Father Mu did not continue to complain about why Mu Yunni had chosen a fat man.
Mu Yunni can move freely because she has items that enhance her stamina, which she bought at great expense. Otherwise, Mu Yunni, who weighs 300 pounds, would have trouble walking, let alone challenging dungeons.
But can Qin Mian have it?
Without it, with this size, I probably wouldn't even last a day in a three-star difficulty dungeon.
If Qin Mian dies, then even if Mu Yunni clears the dungeon, it will be useless, because after three years, if the two cannot have a child, they will still die.
"How about this, Yunni..." Father Mu suddenly had an idea, "Forget everything else, let's enter the instance and... have a child first..."
Upon hearing this, Mu Yunni didn't know what to say.
Xiao Rou's eyes lit up too, "Yes, yes, Uncle is right. As long as you have a child, then the 'single is a crime' scenario might be possible..."
"Ugh, stop talking, let me calm down!" Mu Yunni covered her ears, completely distraught.
Afraid of further upsetting him, the two quickly shut up.
Father Mu frowned. "No, relying solely on this... is too risky, there are too many variables. You all wait at home, I'll contact a few more underground channels and overseas organizations to see if I can scrape together a few more life-saving items in this last bit of time! I'll sell everything I own to get them!"
With that, Mr. Mu left in a hurry.
……
Meanwhile, on the other side of the world, on the west coast of the United States, in a cliffside villa overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
The lights were on, but the atmosphere remained tense.
Film star Scarlett Johansson paced back and forth irritably, her long blonde hair slightly disheveled.
Nearby, a think tank of highly paid folklorists and historians was frantically flipping through documents, comparing images, and debating in hushed tones, each of them looking exhausted and anxious.
"How's it going? Have you found any reliable information?" Scarlett asked impatiently.
The assistant was pale. "Scarlett, we've searched through almost every available, public or semi-public, archive of Eastern history. There are only a few words about the Queen of Jingjue. As for the exact location of the ancient city of Jingjue, it's only said to be in the Taklamakan Desert, and there should be a mountain range called Zaglama nearby. Apart from that, there isn't much useful information."
"Fuck!" Scarlett cried out, clutching her hair in near despair.
Seeing Scarlett on the verge of collapse, the assistant hesitated for a moment before adding, "However... the government has provided special support."
Scarlett looked up abruptly. "What support?"
The assistant hesitated for a moment, but still said, "It's... a 'gene enhancement drug' reverse-engineered based on biological samples from previous winners. It's said to greatly improve the user's basic physical attributes, including strength, speed, endurance, and reaction time, and... there's a chance it can simulate perceptual abilities similar to 'animal communication'."
Scarlett's breathing instantly became heavy, and a terrifying glint flashed in her eyes: "Where's the potion? Give it to me right now!"
"It's already on its way, escorted by special forces." The assistant licked his dry lips, his voice strained. "But, Scarlett, you must know... this drug has extremely serious and unpredictable flaws and side effects."
"Flaw?" Scarlett frowned.
"Yes." The assistant flipped through a report marked "Top Secret" and riddled with warning symbols. "All volunteers or...death row inmates who participated in the live experiments, while gaining the ability, exhibited varying degrees of mutation at different times. Some suffered mental breakdowns, turning into monsters driven only to slaughter; some experienced cognitive distortions, believing themselves to be beasts; and others... underwent horrific, irreversible physical mutations... Therefore, the government's intention is...it's up to you to decide whether to use it. They...of course, want to obtain real-world combat data on this drug in challenging dungeons."
