Ke Xue exorcists demons and starts with immobilization

Giving Eri some career advice would likely influence the type of job she gets after graduating from university.

'I didn't expect this dungeon to have some character progression elements...'

Chu Zhong muttered to himself.

On the surface, he answered without hesitation: "Lawyer! Of course, lawyer!"

"A lawyer?" Eri Kisaki hesitated. "That job must be pretty difficult, right?"

Chu Zhong said expectantly, "It might be difficult for others, but for Ying Li, I believe you will do very well and will definitely become the top lawyer in the country, no, the world!"

Then Eri pinched the flesh around her waist.

"You're teasing me again..." Eri Kisaki said with some dissatisfaction.

Chu Zhong nuzzled her cheek. "I'm serious, Yingli. I guarantee you can become a great lawyer!"

Since we're going to raise her, she should be raised to be like Eri Kisaki in real life, a legal queen!

By the time……

The thought of this made Chu's heart race.

"Cough cough cough..."

As he sped up, he coughed twice more.

Eri couldn't help but ask, "King Chu, has your cold gotten worse?"

"It's alright..." Chu Zhong shook his head, indicating that she didn't need to worry, and joked, "But soon, you might get infected too."

After all, the two of them had been standing close together since last night, making it difficult for them not to catch a cold.

“That’s not necessarily true,” Eri Kisaki said with a hint of pride. “I just recovered from a minor cold a couple of days ago, so I’m unlikely to get sick again anytime soon.”

Using the excuse of taking medicine for a cold, Eri Kisaki firmly refused some of her male classmates' attempts to get her to drink.

Chu Zhong, as if suddenly realizing something, half-jokingly said, "I get it! So it was you who infected me!"

After all, a cold is caused by a virus, not just by getting chilled.

In this icy and snowy landscape, Chu Zhong only came into contact with Eri Kisaki. Who else could it be but her?

That awful dungeon system...

Afterwards, the two leaned on each other and chatted for a while.

Chu Zhong took out chocolates and beer for Eri.

He's not suited to eating chocolate, but luckily he has squid strips in his inventory, so he can make do with that.

I was also curious about some aspects of Eri Kisaki's situation.

For example, she drank a lot of beer these past two days, but she wasn't drunk at all.

It's worth noting that Jiuxian beer has a relatively high alcohol content, reaching around 20 degrees.

If a girl drinks one bottle, she'll likely be at least half-drunk, if not completely drunk.

Furthermore, Japan has strict age restrictions for drinking alcohol; one must be twenty years old to drink.

“It’s because of Yukiko,” Eri Kisaki explained. “She was scouted in her second year of high school and debuted as an idol. She often had drinking parties and didn’t want to be taken advantage of while drunk. So when she went to karaoke to practice her singing, she insisted on dragging me along to practice my drinking capacity.”

Chu Zhong understood.

All crows are black, and since Japan has a very open social atmosphere, the unspoken rules in the entertainment industry are naturally even more outrageous.

Furthermore, Japan places great importance on seniority and hierarchical relationships, and it is not uncommon for seniors to take advantage of others by giving acting advice or to harass others.

Even if they are taken advantage of, they still have to smile and thank you.

It's no wonder Yukiko is so wary.

As Yukiko's best friend, Eri Kisaki naturally had to help with her drinking practice. After a while, she could be said to be able to drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, but she did have a certain alcohol tolerance.

'I wonder when I'll be able to play in the Yukiko instance...'

Chu Zhong muttered to himself, also quite interested in this Mrs. Ke, a global film queen.

However, since we're currently inside the Eri Kisaki instance, we definitely won't be able to see Yukiko.

Chu Zhong hadn't finished eating what was in his bowl yet, and the thought only flashed through his mind.

call--

The wind outside was getting stronger.

The two sat around the fire, eating and chatting.

As the clothes gradually dried, Chu Zhong put his own clothes back on.

Chu Zhong didn't care about the little bit of mud on his clothes.

Anyway, everything will be restored once you leave the instance.

Chu Zhong caught a cold and couldn't continue drinking. He was thirsty, so he filled an empty wine bottle with snow, put it by the fire to melt it, and drank some warm water.

Now there is shelter from the wind, a fire for warmth, and warm water to drink.

Chu Zhong felt increasingly weak, a chill would rise from the bottom of his heart from time to time, and his cough became more and more frequent.

Even a minor cold can make you feel so uncomfortable.

"Eri, check what time it is now."

Chu Zhong spoke.

Earlier in the accident vehicle, when Chu Zhong borrowed the clothes of the unconscious Fei Yingli to keep warm, he found her watch uncomfortable and untied it, throwing it into his handbag.

In an era before mobile phones were widespread, almost everyone owned a watch.

"Nine o'clock in the morning." Eri took out her watch to check.

Chu Zhong nodded.

Just as he expected, it gets dark quickly in the snow. The two of them went to sleep early in the back seat of the car last night, so they would definitely wake up early today as well.

The time spent using the car door to slide, build a snow hut, make a fire, and eat was only two or three hours.

"Chu Jun, your forehead is getting hotter and hotter. You should rest for a while."

Eri Kisaki placed her cool hand on Chu Zhong's forehead, her face filled with worry.

Chu Zhong nodded and lay down by the fire, hoping that his cold would be better when he woke up.

After he lay down, Eri quickly snuggled into his arms, using her own warmth and her sweater to help keep him warm.

"No need for that, it's already quite warm."

Chu Zhong felt that the hot breath he exhaled while speaking was almost burning his mouth.

"No! The heat you feel when you're sick is an illusion!"

Eri Kisaki's attitude was firm and brooked no refusal.

Reminded of this, Chu Zhong realized that he had indeed been a bit delirious and stopped arguing.

I closed my eyes and soon drifted off to sleep.

I do not know how long it has been.

Chu Zhong, who was fast asleep, shivered from the cold and instinctively tried to hug the warmth in his arms, but he couldn't touch anything.

When she opened her eyes, she found her arms empty. The snow house was dark, with only a faint fire still burning. Eri was nowhere to be seen.

"Cough cough cough-"

"This lousy cold..."

Chu Zhong sat up from the ground, feeling a heaviness in his head and weakness in his limbs; his cold had worsened.

After emerging from the snow hut and scanning the area, they spotted Eri Kisaki picking up wood not far away.

Looking at the mana stats again, it has recovered to 103.

When Chu Zhong fell asleep, his mana value was 26.

He recovers 10 mana points per hour, and he slept for nearly eight hours without realizing it.

The sky had darkened, casting a pale gray hue over the white snow in view, and the wind and snow had subsided somewhat.

It was predictable that it would get dark soon.

It seems that Eri Kisaki, seeing that the wood was about to burn out and worried about the cold at night, secretly left the snow hut to collect firewood.

"Eiri~!"

General Chu called Consort Yingli back to his side.

"feel better now?"

As soon as Eri returned, she raised her hand to touch his forehead.

Then, as if remembering something, he awkwardly hid his slightly purple, frozen hands behind his back, stood on tiptoe, and tried to check his temperature with his forehead.

Chapter 74 A Woman's Sixth Sense, A Reunion

"Much better." Chu Zhong pressed down on Fei Yingli's shoulder to prevent her from touching her forehead, his face relaxed.

He then sent Eri back to the snow hut and threw all the wood she had collected into the fire pit to dispel the chill from her clothes and warm her stiff hands.

"Now that everything's burned, what are we going to do tonight?!"

Eri Kisaki was getting anxious and wanted to stop her.

"It's okay, it'll be warm tonight." Chu Zhong smiled confidently and kissed her.

Afterwards, Chu Zhong left the snow house and did the things he had prepared that morning.

About ten minutes later,

Chu Zhong beckoned Fei Yingli out and, just like in the morning, helped her into the car.

"But it's getting dark... let's spend another night in the snow house."

The dim light made it difficult for Eri to see 'Chu Jun's' face clearly, which made her inexplicably uneasy.

"Trust me, I'll get you away from here." Chu Zhong hugged the anxious girl tightly. "My cold is almost gone, I just want to find a warm and comfortable place to be with you..."

After calming down Eri, Chu Zhong used the same trick again, using all his strength to kick the back of the car door.

Then, it stepped through the door again and glided forward, faster and faster...

Four minutes later, the car door slid an unknown distance before gradually coming to a stop.

Current mana: 7

Chu Zhong's mana was also completely depleted.

But instead of the expected signs of human habitation, the surrounding terrain was actually higher.

'Could it be that we went the wrong way?'

Chu Zhong couldn't help but feel uneasy.

Then a soft fragrance enveloped me, and a hand touched my forehead.

"You're lying! My cold has clearly gotten worse!"

Eri shouted angrily, her voice filled with obvious anxiety and unease.

"So you definitely shouldn't stay in the igloo."

Chu Zhong explained.

The cold not only showed no signs of getting better, but actually got worse.

If this continues, he might not be able to hold on any longer before he gets Eri back to a populated area and will have to force himself to exit the instance.

Even knowing it's just a copy, it still makes him uncomfortable to abandon Eri and return to reality alone.

'This dungeon is so realistic...'

Chu Zhong couldn't help but complain in his heart.
