I'll also work hard to conquer the dungeon today.

Chapter 112, page 1.7, section 29: Lias's Voyage
The first night on the deserted island ended with a group of energetic night owls chatting.

[Lias Voyage Travelogue, February 11th, Sunny]

The radiant sun rose slowly from the sea, painting the horizon with golden-orange hues. The best news I received was that I opened my eyes to find the belated supplies arriving, even though they had been carried across the sea in wooden crates.

The logo on the supply box wasn't from the merchant ship I was on; it seemed to be a special item from the Fieselia cruise ship. So, it's back in business again this year?
The weather is great today, perfect for outdoor adventures. Visibility is high, and the temperature is a bit on the warmer side. However, it seems the small animals that have been hiding are about to come out.

Lias looked up at the five people surrounding the huge wooden crate not far away, and curled his lip. This kind of crate is extremely difficult to open; it's impossible to open it without special tools.

"How do I drive it?" Orsia asked, half-squatting on the beach, looking troubled.

Dao Lin touched the damp wooden box, frowned, and said, "It's impossible to open without a crowbar." Because here, human limitations are compressed to an equal position, and they have no way to do it with their strength.

“I think there must be some way, otherwise they wouldn’t have sent the supplies over for no reason.” Felna turned her head and looked into the depths of the woods, as if she had just seen something flash by.

"If we can't open it, let's destroy it, shall we?" Shui Qi stared quietly at the patterns on the wooden box, then suddenly suggested with a smile.

Her cool, silver eyes were fixed on the waves. Although she was standing in front of the wooden crate, she was in a completely different state from the others and had no intention of participating in their discussion.

"Ahem," Shui Qi coughed lightly, "Does Ye Gui have any good suggestions?"

Hearing Shui Qi call her, Mu Yegui silently turned her head to look back at him. Her silver eyes were cold and calm, without any emotion. After several seconds, she shook her head, showing an unusually long reaction time.

"What's wrong? You don't seem to be feeling well?" Shui Qi asked softly after a moment of surprise.

Mu Yegui slightly raised his bare foot and kicked the wooden box. With a muffled groan, the entire box broke into six pieces and fell apart completely.

Everyone: "..."

Dao Lin looked at the supplies in the wooden box with a conflicted expression, then at Mu Yegui's little feet, seemingly trying to decide which aspect to consider first.

Regardless of what others thought, Mu Yegui walked straight through them and headed into the woods.

"What's wrong?" Mu Yin asked worriedly.

"I don't know, I'm just a little affected." Mu Yegui casually found a tree, jumped onto the trunk and sat down, looking down at the leaves on the ground, and said slowly.

"Impact? I don't think I felt anything..." Mu Yin thought for a moment. He really didn't feel anything. Could it be that the impact was only directed at Mu Yegui?

He covered his eyes with his hands, and the black ring on his left middle finger shimmered faintly in the sunlight, making the sword and shield pattern seem clearer.

"This design wasn't on the ring before, was it?" Mu Yegui asked suddenly, looking down at the black ring on the middle finger of her left hand.

"It wasn't there when we were outside." It's strange, really. Why did the pattern suddenly appear here? Mu Yin could guarantee with his integrity that this was truly an ordinary ring, nothing special. He couldn't say why, but it certainly wasn't a cheap ring bought from a street stall. This ring, though ordinary-looking, was actually crafted from the rarest and hardest black stone in the universe. One gram of it was equivalent to the price of an A-grade energy planet. Not to mention, black stone is quite heavy; one gram would only be about one millimeter in size. Therefore, the ring on Mu Yegui's hand could actually buy all the planetary land in the Federation.

"What did you mean by the effects you just experienced?" Mu Yin suddenly asked, clearly not wanting to continue the conversation about the ring.

"I was just... completely stunned and couldn't react." She had never encountered a situation like this before. In the past, people said she was out of touch with reality because she didn't care, but this time she was truly forced into it.

"This instance seems to want to control me. Something's not right. This instance is too autonomous. It seems to be able to continue even without an instance owner... Could it be that there are high-level instances not because there is an instance owner, but because it is a high-level instance, which is why it has an instance owner?" Mu Yegui murmured, but quickly dismissed his own idea.

"The Secret Mansion did indeed become a high-level dungeon because of the existence of its dungeon owner, so there must be differences between dungeons." Could it be that because this is the territory of the Mysterious Kingdom, the dungeons also possess incredible abilities?
She leaned slowly against the tree trunk, her misty gray curls slightly obscuring her delicate face. Her cool silver eyes gazed quietly at the distant woods where only birdsong could be heard, her gaze deep and calm, reflecting no figure.

"Why not give it a try? February 15th is almost here, and I think the answer will be revealed on that day. The rules say that mysterious phenomena will occur during the new moon and full moon in the Kingdom of the Unbelievable, and non-humans will definitely be affected. Since that's the case, why don't we wait? At worst, I can force you to switch places with me. Judging from the fact that you were affected while I was fine, I'm unlikely to be in any danger either."

Perhaps it's because he didn't participate in this instance or because he's the crown prince...

"If only I had a body to participate with you." To be able to see you, to touch you, instead of just remaining in the depths of my consciousness watching all this from your perspective. Even possessing a body cannot truly allow me to see you with my own eyes... to touch you with my own hands...

"Xiao Yin, the Samuro are destined to kill each other. If we ever meet face to face, one of us will surely die. It's in our racial nature." There will never be a day when the Samuro can coexist peacefully. There will only be fighting and death.

Mu Yin fell silent. Indeed, the dreams in one's heart and reality are forever at odds. Dreams are dreams because they are beautiful enough, while reality is cruel enough.

"If, I mean if, there really were a place where we could meet without wanting to kill each other, would Momo choose to stay? Even if it's an illusion and not real enough?" For Mu Yin, it doesn't matter whether it's real or fake, as long as he believes and acknowledges it, as long as he can realize his dream, because he only cares about that one thing, and everything else is irrelevant to him.

The mayfly flapped its wings and slowly flew towards the sky...

Mu Yegui turned to look at them and fell silent.

After an unknown amount of time, she suddenly spoke up, "I don't want to."

With a 'plop,' the mayfly, having exhausted all its life force, fell to the ground, ending its life.

His dark golden vertical pupils suddenly contracted. He looked down at his hands, where glistening water droplets rolled into his palms but disappeared in an instant.

I don't write filler chapters, so as I said before, every chapter is full of details.

In the first chapter, Mu Yegui was in a private suite on the spaceship.

I won't mention anything else.
