Terrible news! My deskmate's first chapter is gone!

Whoosh!

Four people, two men and two women, enveloped in red light, were following a palm-sized rat toward an unknown location.

As the four ran, the red glowing coats seemed to envelop their bodies like a layer of flame, swaying in the wind.

This red light is Lin Fan's [Great Void Rhythm], a power with multiple attributes.

Those enveloped by it will receive varying degrees of enhancement in strength, speed, defense, and recovery.

It was thanks to this red coat that the four of them were able to withstand the cold of the place.

"My treasure-hunting mouse is accelerating; this is the final sprint after confirming the target!"

Assam shouted, under Lin Fan's protection, he could no longer feel the cold.

"Keep up!"

Lin Fan said earnestly.

He was still hesitating about whether to continue, after all, there were too many unknown factors. Even if they didn't encounter a single enemy along the way, they might all freeze to death on the road due to insufficient mental energy.

The treasure-hunting rat has now located its target and is making its final sprint. Based on this, its psychic power is more than enough to support its return journey.

Given this, Lin Fan naturally wouldn't let this opportunity slip by.

He didn't know where he was, but he knew that there were monsters in this world and that he needed to gain the power to fight against them!

If you give up even this kind of opportunity, it's tantamount to killing your future self!

Therefore, we must move forward!

Swish!

After a spectacular mouse-style drift, the treasure-hunting mouse let out a long "squeak," louder than ever before.

"The final straight sprint!"

"The treasure is right in front of us!"

Assam translated, a hint of excitement on his face.

The feeling now is completely different from the days when I was constantly on the run.

It evokes a sense of exhilaration, like a serf finally being liberated and singing a song of triumph.

"be safe!"

Lin Fan reminded them that they should not be careless, especially at times like these.

"Um."

The other three tacitly hummed in agreement. They were all partners who had gone through life and death together, so they had this much awareness and understanding.

Soon, their destination appeared before them.

That was a building.

A building that is extremely large but has a very illogical design.

Its overall shape resembles a pair of briefs, with a thin lower section for support and a thicker upper section.

According to physics, it simply cannot exist and will inevitably collapse.

But there's no science here, so everyone's used to it.

"The Triangle Building!"

"It seems the treasure is inside!"

Assam gave it a name with a triumphant cry.

The four approached quickly.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the entrance to the lowest level of this triangular building was actually a cookie!

"squeak!"

"The treasure is inside!" Assam translated promptly.

Just as the four were about to push the door open and enter.

With a "click," the cookie that served as the door actually jumped out on its own!

And with a "poof," hands and feet sprouted from all around.

It had no facial features, and simply spread its arms to block the way for Lin Fan and his companions.

"Without a mouth, it seems unable to communicate."

"Kill this cookie man!"

Lin Fan quickly came to a conclusion.

"I'll do it!"

Tyson Bolt volunteered to be the first to step forward.

She took a whistle out of her mouth, put it to her lips, and blew it with a "whoosh."

The next second, his clothes changed into a blue long-sleeved shirt and trousers that looked like a suit, and he was wearing a hat of the same color on his head.

Security guards are born with a whistle, which can be taken out of their pocket anytime, anywhere, whether or not it has been discarded.

Once the whistle is blown, the extraordinary characteristic of the "security guard" identity, [Security Mode], will be activated.

In this state, combat power increases significantly, especially defensive power, which becomes exceptionally strong.

This wasn't the first time Tyson Bolt had used his security mode, so it wasn't surprising to everyone.

Looking at Tyson Bolt's appearance at this moment, isn't it also a kind of alternative uniform temptation?

"Watch out for the elbow!"

Tyson Bolt is already tall, nearly two meters, with a rugged face and explosive muscles that could easily mislead people about his gender.

His weight even surpassed Lin Fan's 250-pound weight, reaching a terrifying 350 pounds!

This weight is extremely exaggerated, but because it's all muscle, she looks very strong, unlike Lin Fan who is fat and round.

Tyson Bolt delivered a flying forward impact, elbowing Cookie Man squarely in what could be considered his "face".

Even a tank would have been dented by that impact, but Cookie Man was completely unharmed.

He waved his arms up and down, signaling the "noob" to continue attacking!

"You've got guts!"

Tyson Bolt, as the pinnacle of the ordinary world, how could he withstand such a test?

"Thai elbow strike!"

She launched another attack, starting with a three-elbow combo, followed by dozens of heavy punches, and finishing with a spinning kick. This combination would turn even a tank into mud.

Cookie Man merely took a step back tactically, still displaying a mocking gesture that seemed to say, "Come on, hit me!"

It's hard to imagine that such a thin biscuit could have such terrifying defensive power.

Just as Tyson Bolt was enraged and about to launch another attack, Lin Fan grabbed him:

"Wait a minute, this cookie man seems to only know how to defend and not how to attack."

"Putting everything else aside, this defense is really too strong. I feel that even I... probably couldn't break through it."

Lin Fan spoke truthfully, without a trace of flattery.

"Wang Qingqing!" Lin Fan said solemnly.

"Your time to shine has come. A 'gambler' can gamble anything to the death if they have enough chips, right?"

[Championship] is a very special supernatural characteristic. It can be activated with zero mental power. As long as you have enough chips, it has infinite possibilities!

"Yes, anything," Wang Qingqing answered firmly, but her tone immediately faltered. "But I don't have any leverage of that strength!"

"Besides, even if I have enough chips, I only have a 49% chance of success."

"This is a characteristic of the 'gambler' identity; each time the ability is activated, there is only a 49% chance of success."

Lin Fan had anticipated this, and conjured a stone crown out of thin air, handing it to Wang Qingqing.

"Take it."

"This thing is called the Heaven-Slaying Stone Crown. It's very special; it's enough to be your bargaining chip in any battle!"

Wang Qingqing hesitated upon seeing this. She had seen this thing once before; Lin Fan had used it to defeat those big dogs.

She couldn't believe that Lin Fan would so easily give her something so important as a bargaining chip!

You should know that if a gambler loses, all their chips are wiped out!

It's either win or lose everything!

Just as Wang Qingqing was wavering between accepting the offer, a thick arm blocked her and Lin Fan.

"Lin Fan, wouldn't you like to reconsider?"

The owner of those muscular arms is none other than Tyson Bolt.
