On the way back to the safe house, Akabane opened his mouth to speak several times, but in the end he chose to remain silent.

The squirrel, unable to bear it any longer, asked, "Manman, will we get a beating if we go back?"

Jin Xiaoman chuckled: "Get beaten up? Why?"

Jin Xiaoman looked at Chi Mian: "Have you done anything wrong?"

Chimian hurriedly waved his tentacles: "No, we didn't do anything bad. We only went to that cave because we knew it was safe."

"Yes, I know, so don't worry, I won't hurt the baby."

Upon hearing this, Chi Mian felt relieved.

It vowed that no matter how bored it was or how excited it was to see Kane, it would never drag them out on adventures again.

Although it used to do this often.

Ahead, Kane followed Lilith dejectedly. His sister hadn't spoken a word to him since they met in the cave; she must be angry.

It's all Akabane's fault!

The group returned to the safe house one after another, and the door slammed shut with a 'snap'.

The three men who had just returned from outside shuddered. Chi Mian looked up at Jin Xiaoman with disappointment: "Sir, you said you wouldn't hit me."

Jin Xiaoman smiled kindly: "I'm saying, you wouldn't hit a good baby, would you?"

Akabane burst into tears: "You're playing tricks on me like this? Have you forgotten who helped you cut down so many trees during the dry season?"

"In the miner's instance, who helped you protect so many gems?"

"Who helped you catch so many moonfish during the flood?"

"When you can't be with the squirrel, who makes it happy and gives it warmth?"

"If you don't have a doorbell, who's been hanging it on the peach tree every day to use as your doorbell?!"

Its cries were mournful, growing louder and louder, as if it had suffered a great injustice: "This time, I was just organizing one of our usual expeditions. You don't know how many times we've organized them before."

Kane, exasperated, snapped, "Shut up!"

The squirrel exclaimed in alarm, "Red Crown, this will make us get beaten even harder!"

Chi Mian paused in her sobs, looked up at Lilith, then at Jin Xiaoman, and finally at Sisyphus: "Are you really angrier now?"

Sisyphus's laughter never stopped: "I didn't."

Lilith: "Neither do I."

Akabane: "Hehehe, I knew it was impossible..."

Jin Xiaoman punched it on the head: "I didn't either!"

Akabane covered his head: "Mandarin, why did you hit me if you didn't mean to?"

"Slip of the hand."

Once Chimian had completely quieted down, Lilith asked, "Did you assess the dangers inside the cave before entering?"

Kane honestly replied, "No."

"After the danger occurred, were the safety of your teammates ensured immediately?"

"no."

"If Xiaoman and I hadn't gotten there in time, would Chimian and the squirrel have survived?"

Kane lowered his head and remained silent.

Sisyphus had always known that Kane was mischievous and disobedient, but when Lilith criticized Kane so harshly, the image of that skinny little cat, covered in thorns, automatically appeared in its eyes.

I couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache: "Lilith..."

Lilith looked up, her expression serious. "Is there something you need, teacher?"

Sisyphus: "Kane it..."

"What are your thoughts on what happened today, teacher?"

On the way back, Lilith had already told Sisyphus the whole story in detail.

Sisyphus carefully considered his words before speaking: "Even if you can't confirm the true identity of the shadowy figure, it's quite clear that this was most likely orchestrated by Sphiro."

Because if an ordinary player has a grudge against Jin Xiaoman, they would have to cross countless deserted islands to reach Jin Xiaoman's island, dig out such a large cave, and then arrange everything inside the cave.

He could have simply attacked directly instead of using this roundabout method.

Lilith: "I think so too. If that's the case, then there will be no such thing as absolute safety on a deserted island."

Sisyphus nodded: "That's right."

"So, we need to let Kane know that his behavior today was far too reckless."

"That's right."

Kane looked at Sisyphus with disappointment, never expecting that Sisyphus's image could be shattered so completely.

Fortunately, Lilith wasn't willing to embarrass Kane too much in front of so many people: "Kane, did you remember that?"

"I'll remember that, sister. I'll never wander into places that might be dangerous in the future."

Chi Mian hurriedly followed: "Me too, I will never go into those messy places again, I will just stay and help the squirrel find treasure chests every day."

Jin Xiaoman waved her hand: "I believe you."

This time, she was careless, always assuming that being on a deserted island wouldn't be as dangerous as in a dungeon.

But now that she's fallen out with Sfilo, she should consider this even more.

This time, the little ones were not allowed to go outside to play in the snow, but were instead herded into Jin Xiaoman's room.

Last night, the treasure chest contained some books, building blocks, and other entertainment items, which A-Ye took out to entertain herself.

After everyone went inside, Jin Xiaoman took out a piece of paper from her backpack.

"After I came out of the dungeon, I realized one thing: as long as Sfilo lives, the people of Earth in the survival game on the deserted island will never have peace."

"So I used all the fragments of the gods to exchange for clues about the gods. I didn't have high hopes, but I got this instead."

Lilith walked up to Sisyphus.

It looked like just an ordinary piece of white paper, except that two lines of text were written on it.

Heart of the Island

The symbol of the faithless.

Lilith looked up: "What's this?"

Jin Xiaoman: "When I first redeemed it, I was also very confused. Usually, it would appear as a clue, but this time it gave me a blank sheet of paper."

"Later I obtained the Heart of the Island. Even though this piece of paper was in my backpack, I could miraculously feel the warmth it was emitting."

"When I opened it, I found that the words 'Heart of the Island' had been added. Today, after the 'Mark of the Unbeliever' fell off, it also emitted a temperature that I could feel. I just took it out, and these words appeared."

Lilith had never seen such a prop before, and she and Jin Xiaoman both looked at Sisyphus.

Sisyphus gazed for a long time, then sighed, "I'm sorry, I don't know either."
