I loaded the dream game

The girl stared blankly at the dreamlike scene before her, unable to come back to her senses for a long time.

"." Do you know? Xueno. "Xia Zhi took back his hand, gently took the hand of the girl beside him, looked at her and said softly: "I said before that I will protect our world... This includes you. "

"...Yeah." Yukino came back to her senses and nodded slightly. She did not struggle to break free from the boy's hand, but instead held it a little tighter.

Xia Zhi understood the girl's response, so he exerted a little force on his hands (Liao Nuo Zhao) and pulled the girl into his arms. He looked at her slightly moist ice-blue eyes that did not avoid his sight, and without any hesitation, he slowly lowered his head...

Xueno's body stiffened again, but she didn't resist. She just closed her eyes.

After a long time, the two separated again.

Looking at the girl in front of him whose breathing had become a little faster, who was breathing slightly with her mouth open and her cheeks slightly red, Xia Zhi said softly:

"I like you, Yukino."

To the exact same confession as last time, Yukino gave a completely different response.

"Ah."

She leaned her head against Xia Zhi's chest and responded softly.

Looking at the girl who was obviously very shy and obviously not very good at it, but still trying hard to respond to him, Xia Zhi just felt that she was extremely cute at this moment.

So, he gently hugged the girl tightly, looked down at her and asked, "Shall we go to the car?"

Her small hands tightly grasped Xia Zhi's clothes. Although her face had already turned red in the boy's arms, she still suppressed her shyness and nodded slightly after hearing such words.

"……Um."

Chapter 602: Next Stage Mission Tips

The next day, when Xia Zhi woke up from his sleep in a daze, he felt like he was holding someone in his arms?

He lowered his head, and the first thing he saw was long, smooth black hair.

...Hubby?

He was unable to come back to his senses for a moment, and this thought subconsciously popped up in his mind. But after feeling it for a while, he realized the difference.

No, it's still a little bigger than Hubie.

As he continued to look down, Xia Zhi saw the delicate face with eyes slightly closed under the slightly messy black hair, and then he woke up from his drowsiness.

What? It’s Yukino.

"Um……"

As if she had noticed his movements, the sleeping girl groaned and slowly opened her eyes.

She raised her head in confusion and met a pair of black eyes that were very close to her.

"Why did you wake up so early?" Xia Zhi asked with concern.

After all, I didn’t sleep all night last night. With a young girl’s physical condition, she won’t be able to hold on if she doesn’t get a good night’s sleep, right?

"I feel like you are thinking about something bad." Yukino wrinkled her nose and looked at him with a hint of suspicion.

"Nothing...just continue sleeping." Xia Zhi lowered his head and gently kissed her soft hair, hugged her body a little tighter, and whispered in her ear.

Although she could tell that the boy was lying, Xueno didn't say anything. She just looked at him with dissatisfaction, then lowered her head and buried it in his arms again, feeling the warmth of his embrace and gently closed her eyes in peace.

…After all, she was indeed very tired.

Looking at the girl in his arms who was gradually falling asleep again, although Xia Zhi couldn't sleep for the time being, he didn't get up and leave. Instead, he just held her soft body until the sun outside the window was almost rising to the center of the sky. Only then did he reluctantly let go of his arms and climbed out of bed.

At this time, Xia Zhi couldn't help but sigh. Fortunately, he found an RV instead of a truck or heavy truck that could also carry a lot of supplies but had no living facilities. Otherwise, how could he have such good conditions and environment now.

While thinking this in his mind, Xia Zhi began to prepare lunch for himself and the sleeping girl.

...Although he is the type who should not cook if he can, it doesn't matter at normal times, but at a time like this, he can't let a girl get up and cook again, right?

Fortunately, there is still a lot of rice left from making sushi yesterday. If you use sea fish to make sushi, you don’t need to cook it, you can just slice it. (bidc)

At least when it comes to knife skills, Xia Zhi is still very confident.

"But if there are only sea fish, wouldn't it be too monotonous?"

While Xia Zhi was thinking about this in his mind, he suddenly caught a glimpse out of the corner of his eye. There seemed to be two unread message prompts in the lower left corner of his vision?

Only then did he remember that the dream game did seem to pop up two message prompts last night, but he was busy with other things at the time and did not check them for the time being. He only noticed them now.

With a hint of doubt and curiosity, Xia Zhi clicked on the two messages, and a few lines of subtitles quickly popped up in front of him.

[Main Mission 1, current stage completed]

[Remaining time for the next stage: 65 hours, 23 minutes and 13 seconds]

[Players are requested to arrange their time reasonably, handle current affairs properly, and make corresponding preparations in advance]

【Wish you a happy game】

"...?"

Looking at the prompt in front of him, a question mark appeared above Xia Zhi's head.

What does the remaining jump time for the next stage mean? Does it mean there will be a second stage?

Inexplicably, Xia Zhi recalled the word "they" that he had put aside in the main task one, as well as the conditions for achieving four endings in the main task two. He couldn't help but have a guess in his mind.

Could it be...

"…Summer Solstice?"

At this moment, the voice of a girl behind him interrupted his thoughts. He turned around and found that Yukino had gotten up and stood behind him without knowing when.

Xia Zhi shook his head, temporarily putting aside the thoughts in his mind, looked at the girl and asked, "Aren't you going to sleep for a while?"

"I've already slept until noon. It's time to get up anyway."

It should be said that this was far beyond the normal range of her biological clock... She was not like a teenager who could lie on the table all day and sleep from morning until school was over in the afternoon.

Xue No thought to herself, and looked curiously at the rice balls in front of Xia Zhi, tilted her head slightly and asked, "Sushi?"

"Isn't this obvious?" Xia Zhi said as he picked up a piece of sushi and handed it to her.

The girl didn't think much about it. She opened her mouth and swallowed it, chewing it carefully and savoring it.

How should I put it... the taste was unexpectedly good. Although sushi is more about the taste of the ingredients themselves, if it involves meat, the knife skills are still quite high, and the final taste is also greatly affected.

"To be honest, this is my first time trying to make sushi." Xia Zhi said:

"I haven't even tasted what it tastes like yet."

It sounds like an honor to be the first time, but why does Yukino always feel like she's being used as a test subject?

"So, can you let me have a taste?"

When she was thinking this in her heart, the voice of the young man coming from her ear made her stunned for a moment.

If you want to taste it, isn't there something else over there...!?

Yukino's eyes widened slightly, but she quickly relaxed again. Her ice-blue eyes were moist, and her body softened a little, leaning into the boy's arms.

After a long time, Xia Zhi raised his head again and looked at the girl in his arms who was breathing slightly and had a blush on her face. An idea suddenly came to his mind:

Indeed, it tastes very good.

This should be the most delicious dish he has made in recent years, right?

"…I'm going to go wash up."

After taking a short breath and regaining some strength, Xueno blushed and tried to break free from Xia Zhi's arms.

However, before she could leave, the boy grabbed her wrist again.

"How about we talk about that kind of thing... later?"

How should I answer this...?

Before she could think of an answer to this question, feeling the boy's warm breath so close to her, the girl should have immediately refused, but she hesitated for a moment.

then……

"Um……"

Amidst the confusion of thoughts, my body gave an answer on its own.

Yukino felt that she was becoming less and less able to refuse young boys.

She blushed and turned away, looking out the window at the endless blue sea under the clear sky, with only one thought in her mind:

...it's over.

This is what she thought at this moment.

In this uninhabited area like an isolated island on the sea far away from the world, can I only let him do whatever he wants?

Chapter 603: Return to the Land

Xia Zhi was not quite sure what the criteria for judging the dream game were, nor did he know why, although the main task one had made some progress, there was still no movement on the main task two.

But that's not the most important thing now.

Xia Zhi's eyes fell on the task panel in front of him, the reward for the main task one -

[Task Reward: 3500 Dream Points (Chinese Valentine's Day Special Price); Random Entry Permission (once)]

Looking at the line of text in his field of vision, Xia Zhi couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

He had been thinking about it since he first saw this description... The first 3,500 dream points were easy to understand, but what did the random entry permissions at the end mean?

This was the first time he saw rewards other than dream points among the rewards given in the dream game.

...As for the second time, it was in the main mission two.

I think it is a special reward that only appears in special event copies like this one.

Xia Zhi thought about it and shook his head slightly.

No matter what, if the reward of this so-called "random entry authority" is really what he thought, then he must complete this main task... If necessary, he would even abandon other main tasks and give priority to completing this task.

and so……

"what are you thinking about?"

The voice of a girl from the side interrupted his thoughts. Xia Zhi turned around and met a pair of ice-blue eyes.

"It's not a good habit to be distracted while driving." Yukino frowned slightly and reminded him.

"It's okay." Xia Zhi looked at the vast sea in front of him and said indifferently, "Anyway, no matter how you drive here, you won't hit anyone."

In fact, he didn't even put his hands on the steering wheel. He just kept his foot on the accelerator after keeping a constant direction... Under normal circumstances, this would be a dangerous driving behavior, but Xia Zhi, who always abided by the law, didn't care at all.

After all, anything is allowed unless prohibited by law, and the Road Safety and Traffic Law does not apply to the ocean.

He thought in his mind.

"I'm just worried that you're used to it now and will drive like this in the future," Yukino continued.

"Don't worry, I don't even have a driver's license." Xia Zhi said proudly, indicating that the girl didn't need to worry about that kind of thing at all.

Yukino: ...

That's even worse, right?

She sighed slightly, but suddenly caught a glimpse from the corner of her eye that a long black line had appeared on the sea level in the distance at some point.

That was not a wave, but something stationary. Just by looking at it from a distance, one could feel its size. It certainly couldn't be an island or something like that.

...is land.

Yukino made a quick judgment in her mind.

They...are back.
