Dorm Duo Survival: What Did You Do to the School Beauty?

"Hey buddy, wake up! It's about time you set off."

Upon hearing the voice, Lin Yuan instantly opened his eyes, his gaze warily fixed on the speaker.

It was a bald old man wearing a tattered Taoist robe. He had a kind face and was smiling at Lin Yuan.

Where is this place? And who is this person?

Lin Yuan carefully examined the bald old man. He felt that the man was very strange. He was neither a monk nor a Taoist. This strange feeling left a deep impression on him. He could not forget him after just one encounter.

It's really weird...

At this moment, Lin Yuan had a clear view of his surroundings. He was surrounded by a dilapidated temple, and the sky was getting dark, so it was almost night. He was leaning against a carriage, and his clothes had changed into ancient attire.

"Set off?"

Remembering the bald old man's words, Lin Yuan didn't know what they meant, so he deliberately asked a question.

He still doesn't know what's going on, or what he should do.

It's supposed to be an advanced quest, but there's not a single hint. How can I complete the advanced quest?

Lin Yuan's mind was filled with questions; he knew absolutely nothing about this advancement mission.

Therefore, since there is a living person in front of him, he naturally wants to figure out the current situation.

This is about advancing your skills, so you can't be careless at all!

"Yes, young man, didn't we make a deal before? You would escort someone to the Zunshen Temple for me, and then you would get what you want..." the bald old man said with a smile.

Escort someone?

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan pondered for a moment and immediately understood that he had been directly placed into a certain plot of the mission world!

Doesn't that mean you have to follow the plot to get information about advancement, or escort someone to the so-called Temple of the Venerable God, and then you've completed the advancement task and gotten what you want?

Anything is possible...

Therefore, you must follow the plot no matter what, otherwise you will easily fail to advance.

"Of course I remember the agreement, but where is the person you asked me to escort? Didn't we agree it was time to set off? Why haven't we seen the person you mentioned yet?"

Lin Yuan coughed lightly and acted out the assigned role. He looked around but couldn't see the person he was supposed to escort.

"Hehe, young man, don't be in such a hurry." The bald old man chuckled and shook his head, pointing to the dilapidated temple:

"I'll bring the person to you right now."

"Okay." Lin Yuan nodded.

The bald old man entered the temple and soon came out carrying a sleeping little girl, heading straight to Lin Yuan.

little girl?

Lin Yuan was stunned. Could this be the person he was supposed to escort? What was so special about this little girl? Did she harbor some great secret?

His mind kept racing with guesses, all of them scenes from TV dramas and novels...

"Young man, we entrust the Venerable One's safety along the way entirely to you. Although the journey is perilous, as long as you deliver the Venerable One to the Venerable Temple, you will receive everything you desire. This is our agreement."

The bald old man handed the little girl from his arms to me and said earnestly:

"I believe that with your abilities, you will be able to overcome any difficulties and arrive safely."

Lin Yuan instinctively took the little girl from him, then realized what was happening and raised an eyebrow.

Venerable One?

If I heard correctly, this bald old man addressed the little girl as "venerable one"?

What's going on?

Could this little girl really be hiding a huge secret?

Is his/her identity extremely special?

He also said the journey was dangerous, but what danger could there be when you're just dropping off one person?

Is someone coming to kill this little girl? My task is to protect her during the chase and then deliver her to the designated location.

Lin Yuan was a little confused, feeling as if he had suddenly been caught in a huge vortex, which seemed to hold a great secret!

Stop messing around! Is it going to be this exciting right from the start?

"Wait a minute? What do you mean by the dangers on the journey? Explain yourself clearly?"

Lin Yuan pressed on with a serious expression.

If you don't even know what you're going to encounter during a mission, you're at a huge disadvantage and can't prevent any unexpected events.

So we have to ask clearly, at least to have a clear understanding of the situation!

"Hey guys, it's time to go!"

The bald old man did not answer Lin Yuan's question. He simply looked up at the sky and urged Lin Yuan and the others to set off in a deep voice.

shit!

Why aren't you saying anything?

Lin Yuan's lips twitched, feeling utterly speechless. Since you already know there are dangers on the road, what's the point of not saying anything now? Are you just going to watch us get into an accident on the road?

"Let's get going, we can't delay any longer!"

The bald old man kept looking back, as if something extremely dangerous was about to catch up in the pitch-black night. He looked serious and kept urging Lin Yuan to leave quickly, as they could not stay here any longer.

"Damn it, I hate people who speak in riddles!"

Sensing the tension in the other person's eyes, Lin Yuan had a bad feeling. He cursed and quickly put the little girl into the carriage. Then he turned around, grabbed the reins, and urged the horses to start moving!

[You have received the temporary skill "Riding a Horse" bestowed by the Heavenly Sea Guardian!]

The moment Lin Yuan grasped the reins, he received a notification, which startled him. Why had everything been arranged for him? This feeling of being controlled made him even more uneasy, as if he were truly in grave danger...

"drive!"

Pulling on the reins, Lin Yuan drove the carriage out of the temple and headed towards the main road in the distance.

Suddenly, he was startled and abruptly turned his head to look at the temple.

A bizarre and terrifying scene was unfolding there!

A tall figure emerged from behind the temple. The figure's face resembled a large peach, glowing white. It had no specific features, no nose bridge or tip, only two dark nostrils, which sent chills down one's spine.

At the same time, countless pairs of snow-white arms kept falling from her body. These arms seemed to have a mind of their own, crawling around and surrounding the entire temple. From a distance, it looked like a snow-white lotus flower blooming, with the dilapidated temple in the center!

What a bizarre monster this is!

Lin Yuan spurred the carriage, desperately trying to escape the place. He had a premonition that the monster was coming towards him, or rather, towards the little girl in the carriage!
