Survival for all, my island is the last pure land on earth.

The next morning, at the Astrology Pavilion.

Jin Xiaoman brought the squirrel over early on.

Unexpectedly, the girl who loves wearing princess dresses arrived even earlier. Upon seeing Jin Xiaoman, she immediately went to greet her and tightly grasped Jin Xiaoman's arm with both hands: "Master Rat is in mortal danger."

Jin Xiaoman's heart skipped a beat, but she chose to reassure Ai Wuyi first: "Don't rush, tell me slowly."

The girl who loves wearing princess dresses took out a crystal ball from her backpack: "This is the SS-level item 'Witch's Magic Ball' that I had when I entered the game. I asked Sister Quan to help me upgrade it to level three yesterday. It can now be used to tell fortunes for mutated beasts that have a bond with the player."

"So I added Rat to the 'Witch's Secrets' list. This morning, as soon as I opened my eyes, I saw the magic ball flashing red, which means that someone on the 'Witch's Secrets' list is in mortal danger. I looked it over from top to bottom and found that it was Rat."

"The magic orb will have its abilities enhanced in the astrology pavilion, so I came here early to do a divination."

The girl who loves wearing princess dresses reached out, and two cloud-like things appeared in front of Jin Xiaoman: "Manman, there are two reasons why Master Rat is so sleepy. The one on the left is more powerful, you go and check it out. I'll look at the one on the right."

Jin Xiaoman nodded: "Okay."

After she finished speaking, she walked into the clouds without hesitation.

Even though she had been told beforehand that she loved wearing princess dresses, Jin Xiaoman was still surprised when she got closer and saw the scene inside.

This is exactly the forest where she lives.

At that time, the squirrel was still very energetic. It happily darted through the forest, constantly sniffing the location of the treasure chest with its little nose.

"Ha, found it."

The squirrel held its tail high and happily stuffed the treasure chest into its pocket.

"This is the seventeenth treasure chest. Manman will definitely praise me a lot, and maybe she'll even kiss me."

The squirrel felt a little shy when it thought about this.

After fidgeting in the tree for a couple of moments, feeling disgusted with himself, he hurried toward the location of the next treasure chest.

The moment the squirrel left, a cloud of purple mist appeared where it had just been. It sniffed it deeply, looking quite intoxicated: "It smells like a curse, so fragrant."

Jin Xiaoman's vision went black, and the scene changed.

The squirrel was still very lively, but it was behaving strangely.

Jin Xiaoman saw herself anxiously calling out, "Grandpa Rat, jump down, I'll catch you."

Upon hearing this, the squirrel immediately turned around and prepared to jump down.

The purple mist reappeared: "Little one, have you forgotten what it feels like to fall from a great height?"

"Do you really believe that the person in front of you is genuinely kind to you?"

The squirrel got angry; its fur stood on end, and it shrieked, "Manman loves me, I know that."

"But you have a curse that only the master of a contracted beast can cast. This curse will gradually drain all your luck, strip you of your ability to find treasure, and then..."

The purple-haired creature tilted its head and stuck out its tongue: "You will die."

"Perhaps you're curious about what you'll look like after you die?"

"Hmm, let me think. After you die, your body will fester and you will become emaciated, eventually turning into a pool of sewage."

"Oh, my poor child, the one who cast the curse, the one under the tree, how much she must hate you."

The squirrel's grip on the branch loosened, and it nearly fell from the height.

Jin Xiaoman was startled when she saw herself in the video, because if the squirrel fell, she might not be able to catch it.

The squirrel's voice became even shriller: "I don't care. If it really was Manman who did it, I'd give my life for her. It's none of your business."

After it finished speaking, it saw that Jin Xiaoman was so nervous that she hadn't noticed the danger behind her. It didn't care about anything else and pounced on Jin Xiaoman with all its might.

The scene changes again.

The squirrel nestled against Jin Xiaoman's neck and said in a muffled voice, "Manman, am I stupid? I can't even tell the difference between dreams and reality, and because of that, I didn't listen to you."

Jin Xiaoman: "How could that be? You're not stupid at all. You're the smartest and most obedient baby in the world."

The purple gas reappeared: "You said you didn't believe she would curse you, why didn't you ask her?"

"What, are you afraid it really is her?"

"Hahaha, you're such a coward."

The shrill laughter echoed incessantly. The squirrel covered its ears, and just as it was about to lose control, Jin Xiaoman's singing voice reached its ears.

She gently patted the squirrel's big tail: "Sleep well~ Sleep well~ My dear baby~"

Seeing that the squirrel had been comforted, its emotions gradually stabilized.

The purple gas glared angrily and suddenly looked at Jin Xiaoman.

It wasn't Jin Xiaoman singing, but rather Jin Xiaoman standing quietly to the side watching.

.....

The scene abruptly ended, and Jin Xiaoman was kicked directly out of the cloud.

The force was so great that Jin Xiaoman slammed into the wall of the astrology pavilion and fell heavily to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

She loves wearing princess dresses and was startled: "Are you alright?"

Jin Xiaoman waved her hand, angrily wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth: "It's nothing, what did you see?"

Speaking of this, the girl who loves wearing princess dresses gets furious: "Damn it, I'd rather betray the world than let anyone else live up to this!"

"What?"

She loves wearing princess dresses: "In my illusion, I saw Ning Jiao Wo Bei Tian Xia Ren (宁教我负天下人), who is Rat Master's master. He treats Rat Master very badly, often beating and scolding him, and even..."

The girl who loves wearing princess dresses was so angry that she cried: "He even threw the squirrel down from a great height and burned it in the fire. The most disgusting thing is that he cursed the squirrel, making it his servant for all eternity."

*Snap—*

Something seems to be broken.

Heartache, confusion, and anger filled Jin Xiaoman's chest in an instant.

Therefore, it is very likely that Rat Lord's dream was not a dream, but something that actually happened.

Why was her kind Rat Master treated like that?

She loves wearing princess dresses: "My current theory is that the parallel universe is in disarray, which has affected our timeline."

Jin Xiaoman raised her hand, signaling Ai Chuan Princess Dress not to speak yet.

She took an orange-flavored lollipop out of her backpack, put it in her mouth, and slowly savored it.

Finally, she tasted a hint of sweetness.

She said, "It doesn't matter, none of that matters anymore. Just tell me, what can I do to save Rat Master?"

She loves wearing princess dresses: "Kill Ning first, and I will betray the world."

Jin Xiaoman laughed out loud: "Okay."

She slipped back into the safe house, where the squirrel was still fast asleep.

It lay on its back with its limbs in the air, hugging its big tail, looking completely carefree.

Jin Xiaoman kissed its cheek: "Good boy, have a good sleep. When you wake up, everything will be alright."

Jin Xiaoman used the Killing Space.

[Ding, the item '***' has been detected on Ning Jiao Wo Bei Tian Xia Ren. You are temporarily unable to use any challenge space on him.]

A surge of even greater anger welled up within her, and for the first time, she felt wronged.

Jin Xiaoman suddenly opened her eyes. She lowered her voice and asked unwillingly, "What quality of prop is it? Why is it hidden?"

Hearing the commotion, A-Ye quickly went over. After understanding the situation, she comforted Jin Xiaoman while mentally searching through all the imported books.

"My lord, are you there?"

A crisp chime rang out from the doorway, breaking the suffocating silence.

With Jin Xiaoman's permission, Maoqiu climbed onto the window of the safe house: "My lord, my friends and I have discovered some very strange people."

She took out a recording stone from her pocket. It was given to her by Jin Xiaoman after Zhan Dou accidentally wandered into her territory last time. The purpose was to record any strange things she found so that she could understand the situation.

In the commemorative stone, "I'd Rather Than Betray the World" leads five seemingly imposing men into Jin Xiaoman's deserted island territory...
