Weak in affinity talent? Female ghosts are eager to give hints.

"You...you guys!!!"

"Damn it! Damn it!!!"

"[Genesis]! [Genesis]!!!"

With a knife to his neck, the dean began to scream and shout wildly.

Tang Wei, Song Bin, and An Lan stared at him suspiciously, and all shook their heads.

"This is insane!"

"That's right! It seems he really has gone mad!"

"I knew it! How could someone who wasn't insane kill so many people?!"

"Xiao Hai!"

"You better behave yourself!!!"

"Sizzle sizzle—"

The sharp knife sliced ​​across the dean's neck, tearing the skin and drawing out drops of blood.

"..."

After the frantic shouting, the dean fell silent again.

He stared blankly around, as if talking to someone: "Why! Why! Didn't we agree that after killing so many people, you would resurrect Han Qingyi?!"

"Why?!"

"Why were they the ones who walked out alive?!"

"Creep..."

"Creep——"

"Creep..."

Amidst the commotion, several tendrils crawled out from his eyes, and the dean actually started talking to himself!

"You think I don't want to?!"

"Damn it!"

"They all know the settings in your pathetic daughter's memories!"

"Originally... all we had to do was keep them trapped there!"

"At worst, we can just trick a few of them into staying..."

"Can!"

"That An Lan!"

"That damn An Lan, he actually got the marks of three managers, and then he even got mine! He was the first one to run away on his own!"

"Originally, if I had killed him, your daughter would have lost the will to struggle or resist me!"

"She will naturally accept the reality of her [resurrection]!"

But alas!

"But this kid survived, and even managed to get out on his own!"

"It's all because of him! Because of An Lan! Do you know... what she did?! Do you know what she did?!"

The dean was in a state of extreme emotional collapse. His neck had been slashed open with a knife, tentacles crawled out of his mouth, and his body was twisting grotesquely!

"Varied..."

"What...?"

"Her! She's such an idiot!"

"What did they mean by 'Fairy Scattering Flowers'?! They actually gave up any hope of leaving, willingly staying here, taking over the power of those three guys, and becoming the new administrator!!!"

"That's her!"

"She gave up her chance to escape, snatched the sacrificial power of the dead from me, opened the passage, and let these two kids out!!!"

"No--"

"No!!!"

"Why...why..."

"Why would someone refuse even resurrection?! Why?!"

The dean's expression shifted rapidly, finally softening as he uttered, "Because... only the [Mad Pharmacist] can save the [Flower Umbrella Fairy]..."

"because..."

"We'll be best friends for life..."

"What?!"

"You! You!!!"

"Buzz—"

The dean's body swayed rapidly, and after he finished speaking, the whiskers on his eyelids contracted quickly!

In the end!

With a "thud," the dean, clutching his bleeding neck, collapsed to the ground!

After his eyes gradually regained their luster, he raised his head and looked at An Lan, Song Bin, and Tang Wei.

"Oh..."

"Hehehe..."

"Hehehehehe..."

"It really is...it really is...success and failure both stem from Anlan..."

"An Lan... An Lan... you guys..."

"If Rellster... had a few friends like you... perhaps... perhaps..."

The dean's voice became choked with emotion.

He looked at An Lan and the other two, speaking in a language they couldn't understand.

"Eee-ooh—"

"Eee-ooh—"

"Eee-ooh—"

In the distance, the sound of sirens seemed to be slowly rising.

"Ta-da!"

quickly!

The police rushed into the house, one by one slipping into the small rooms: "Don't move! Who called the police?!"

"......"

"Buzz!!!"

I don't know why!

The moment the police arrived, the dean breathed his last, uttering a sob: "There's no more chance..."

Then!

His head lolled to the side, and he died completely!

"Buzz—"

The scene around them, which should have been the police cleaning up the mess, inexplicably began to freeze...

【drop--】

Congratulations to the Guardians for their victory!

[Instance participants An Lan, Tang Wei, and Song Bin are currently undergoing memory recovery and body restoration!]

[You have protected the peace of the orphanage in this instance and will receive special rewards of varying levels!]

[Participant Tang Wei has received a Kreece Medal, granting you the right to enter the Kree world! With continued exploration, you'll have the opportunity to unlock more dimensions!]

[Participant Song Bin has received a Crypt Lord Medal, granting you the right to enter the Crypt Lord world! With continued exploration, you'll have the opportunity to unlock more dimensions!]

[Anlan, a participant in this instance, your "Source of Contamination" will be upgraded! You will receive a cross-dimensional notification; please check the information later!]

Can you decide to leave this instance at any time, or stay for half an hour?

This special instance will not dissipate and will reopen after a certain amount of energy has been stored...

"..."

After the notification sound of "[Instance]" rang, An Lan and the other two's physiques and memories were rapidly recovering.

After returning to their normal size, An Lan and the other two exchanged glances, all of them with mixed emotions!

before!

When you meet as adversaries, you can be fearless and fight to the death!

But now...

The brotherhood forged in the dungeon has deepened; both sides are now in different positions, and they are getting to know each other again...

That's a bit awkward...

"you..."

After hesitating for a long time, An Lan finally spoke first.

"You guys in the end..."

"How did you get out?"

"Oh!"

What do you think?!

"What? You're allowed to favor An Lan over Qing Yi, but not us?!"

Song Bin grinned bitterly, and An Lan nodded silently.

"This is the real her..."

"right!"

"This is the real her!"

"Perhaps more than a decade ago, during the first instance of the dungeon raid, we, including the raid leader, were all saved by her!"

"So many years have passed..."

"She was probably waiting for us; it's another cycle..."

"However, this time the dean isn't the dean. Because of Rael's involvement, he's become a participant in the instance and has stayed inside..."

Tang Wei explained.

The appearance of this "copy" many years ago has gradually been analyzed.

Three people...

Neither of them rushed to leave the instance; they stared at each other for a long, long time.

"Um..."

"Finally, thank you all for sacrificing yourselves to let Qingyi and me get out..."

An Lan looked at the two of them with a strange expression.

Former rivals have inexplicably become brothers, and it's just... just so hard to get used to!

"No need to thank me!"

"Without you, we would already be dead!"

"Anlan...thank you!"

"Yes! Thank you, Anlan!"

As Song Bin and Tang Wei spoke, they bowed to An Lan.

"Why!"

"you!"

"you..."

As they were talking, An Lan suddenly thought of something and pursed her lips: "What do you plan to do after you leave? The leaders of the [Energy Gathering] are all dead... So, you might as well—"

"Ha! We both know what's going on!"

Don't worry!

"Our loyalty to the Energy Conservation Society is because of Mr. Rael!"

"Since this is the outcome, once we're out... we'll cooperate with the authorities to arrest the remnants of the [Energy Extraction Society]!"

"At that time!"

"If we can make amends..."

"Anlan!"

"Remember...let us join the [Zhouchi Team] too! We're [Zhouchi People] too!"

"Yes! We're from the same hometown!"

Song Bin and Tang Wei seemed to know that An Lan would ask this question, and they looked at An Lan jokingly.

"good!"

"must!"

"I'll be waiting for you! Binbin, Awei!"

An Lan smiled with relief.

If these two companions could come back, I believe Han Qingyi would be very happy, right?

"Let's go!"

"Going out to clean up the mess!"

"Anlan... I have a feeling that Qingyi hasn't disappeared..."

"You know, right? This 'dungeon' is actually a curse on our 'State Pool.' So even in the real world, she should be able to move around freely..."

"It's just... she might not be able to take people to the [Forgotten] world..."

The figures of Song Bin and Tang Wei were already flashing continuously.

Suddenly, as if struck by a thought, Song Bin looked at An Lan with envy and said, "So... I think! All these years! She might... have always been by your side..."

"ah?!"

"..."

An Lan fell silent!

With a "buzz," he watched Song Bin and Tang Wei disappear, then chose to stop inside the [Instance] and looked around at the familiar scenery!

Due to the impact of the [Dungeon], [Love and Care Orphanage] became [Shadow Orphanage].

This must be an octopus with the power of the [Forgotten World] encroaching on its surroundings!

and--

Han Qingyi also possesses half, or even more, of the power of the [Dungeon]!

Over the years!

Why didn't she stop it?

Where did she go?

Forgetting, memories of the past...

[Goddess Conquest System...]

[Affection CG...]

Each CG is a memory from the past of each female ghost...

Could it be?!

No way?!

It can't be—

An Lan blinked, and suddenly felt a jolt run through her body!

"system!"

【drop--】

[We've discovered the goddess Han Qingyi!]

[Goddess Han Qingyi unlocked!]

【Han Qingyi】

【age:???】

【height:???】

【weight:? ? ? 】

[Measurements: ???]

Appearance: ???

【Characteristic: Only likes Anlan】

[Current favorability: 100 points!]

[Note: You don't need to use any strategy to win over someone who loves you!]

[Ding! You have unlocked the following CGs: Han Qingyi's affection level 25, affection level 50, affection level 75, and a special affection level CG!]

[Play?]

【whether?】

"..."

"really!"

"System, you're Qingyi... right?"

【...】

The system did not respond.

An Lan smiled!

This speculation didn't just come about because of Song Bin's suggestion!

However, the last time, at a different time offline, if [Han Qingyi] had been saved, the system would have been gone.

That timeline might be the one from when they were kids, when the Dean was allowed to kill indiscriminately and resurrected Han Qingyi. The three little ones didn't need to explore anything and were eventually brought out by Han Qingyi!

The Dean, well, he'll just survive and spread [the dungeon] everywhere!

Furthermore!

The ability of this [duplicate] is to forget the past and capture the past!

The "Goddess Conquest System" is basically just about viewing the other person's past memories, isn't it?

Han Qingyi has been missing for so many years, and she hasn't fought against the spread of the [Instance]. Where did she go?

It's very simple!

He's always been by An Lan's side!

"Qingyi..."

"I'm sorry..."

"I only just remembered you..."

"If you don't admit it..."

"So!"

"System! Store Han Qingyi!"

【...】

No response!

There wasn't even a notification to tidy up!

"That!"

"Please play... Han Qingyi's favorability CG!!!"

【drop! 】

[CG at 25 Affection Points! Loading...]

"Splash..."

"Splash..."

It was still drizzling.

Rainwater poured onto the black pond.

Before the petite Han Qingyi, a massive mountain of tentacles was constantly hovering.

"you..."

"You alone..."

"Change to the three of them..."

"It's still the same three... I'll give you one back..."

"I..."

"I'll go with you!"

"But! You absolutely mustn't hurt them!"

"Absolutely not!!!"

"A smart choice..."

Come here!

"sieve--"

The dense, swarming tentacles instantly engulfed Han Qingyi!

【...】

Images from my memory began to flash continuously, the first scene being a transaction between myself and a monster.

An Lan blinked, sensing the information in her mind, her eyes flickering.

(so...)

(Actually, when the three of us came here...)

(Did Han Qingyi make a deal with that monster?)

(This is why...we didn't encounter any danger in the world of memories, and it was all Han Qingyi's memories?)

(How silly...)

An Lan gave a bitter smile, the images still lingering in her mind...

"Ugh... ugh..."

"Why lately...?"

"I keep having this strange dream..."

"I dreamt about that big guy..."

"..."

"Who...who am I? Where am I? What am I supposed to do?!"

He sat up on a bed.

Han Qingyi had already transformed into a black shadow, and looked around hesitantly!

In the corner sat a bed, and in the room, a huge desk, a bookcase, and a wardrobe—that was all that remained...

here...

It's the dean's room!

"this..."

"This is?!"

Han Qingyi quickly walked to the desk, where a man was sitting, looking at a selfie and constantly shedding tears.

"Why?!"

Why...?

Why do I cry when I look at my own photo?!

The man sobbed.

In the photo, the man is holding something with one arm and smiling at the camera!

But the man's arms were completely empty!
