Lucky billion players, you've never seen one before / I can accumulate my own luck

Lu Xining shook her head: "Even if I stay for the rest of the time, it's not on my own, so I don't think I'll improve the dungeon rating much. The income is not proportional to the effort, so forget it."

“Hmm…that works too,” Fan Xiao nodded. “It’s up to you.”

"Then see you later."

Lu Xining waved her hand slightly, and her figure disappeared from the spot.

They left very decisively.

After all, we'll see each other again soon after we go back, so it's just a brief farewell and there's no need to make it too formal.

It's not like it's a matter of life and death.

Fan Xiao, who was left alone, took a few steps forward.

Then, using his "vampire" powers, he manipulated some of his own blood to flow out and fly towards the corpses of the seven old men lying on the ground.

The next second, the blood turned into raging flames, igniting all the corpses in one go.

Fan Xiao watched quietly as the body was continuously cremated, until only a few skeletons remained.

He then used the "Dustless Shield" to crush the seven skeletons and turn them into ashes.

Finally, he took out a stack of bags from his storage space, took out seven of them, and put the ashes into the seven bags respectively.

He planned to wait until the instance closed before heading to the outside world to hold a sea burial for the seven elderly people.

So that they could all cross the ocean and return to their hometowns.

It can be considered as returning to one's roots.

……

For the next four days, Fan Xiao stayed in the chaotic space, spending time with 36 little girls, including Yan Keke.

He chatted with them.

I also played various games with them.

The little girls' dependence on him gradually grew stronger.

With the danger gone, Fan Xiao returned to his normal routine.

He plays with the little girls during the day and sleeps with them at night.

During this time, something quite unexpected happened to him.

—Yan Keke can see Fan Qiqi after she has materialized.

The other little girls connected to Yan Keke can also see it.

However, what they saw was a blurry figure, not as clear as Yan Keke's.

"As expected of a top-tier A-level psychic power, even when his mental strength wasn't very strong, he was able to detect Qiqi's presence."

Fan Xiao sighed inwardly.

"Fan Xiao, Fan Xiao, they're all so cute, so cute..."

Fan Qiqi tugged at Fan Xiao's sleeve and said excitedly.

The Angel of Death possesses the ability to teleport to any location within its range.

So even if the little angel wasn't "connected" by Yan Keke, she could still directly invade this mental space through Fan Xiao as a medium.

"Fan Xiao, I really want to tear them to pieces...hehe..."

Fan Qiqi kept tugging at Fan Xiao, making demands.

On the other side, Yan Keke, who was being stared at by the little angel, subconsciously took two steps back and said in a weak voice, "Brother Fan, she... she's so scary... who is she to you?"

"I'd say she's my daughter."

Fan Xiao replied.

"Huh?" Yan Keke was stunned: "Brother Fan, you... got married?"

"No, you're saying that only married people can have daughters?"

Fan Xiao squatted down and pulled Fan Qiqi in front of him.

As he tidied the little girl's hair, he continued, "Her name is Fan Qiqi. She is a spiritual being, and her condition is quite similar to yours."

"She...she's so cruel..."

Yan Keke said with a hint of fear.

Fan Xiao glanced at her in surprise and asked, "You can sense other people's emotions?"

"Hmm... I can only sense a very slight amount."

Yan Keke wanted to get closer to Fan Xiao, but she was also afraid of Fan Qiqi, who kept staring at her intently.

For a moment, a very conflicted expression appeared on her face.

Fortunately, the little angel's time in the real world quickly returned to zero, and his figure disappeared from the spot.

Yan Keke then approached Fan Xiao and reminded him, "Brother Fan, the dungeon... the dungeon will close in half an hour."

"Okay." Fan Xiao nodded. "I understand."

"Are you...are you leaving?"

Yan Keke asked in a low voice.

When asked the question, she didn't even dare to look up at Fan Xiao, silently biting her lip.

Finally, she mustered her courage and spoke before Fan Xiao could answer the question: "Brother Fan, can you stay with us? Everyone...everyone likes you very much."

Fan Xiao asked with a smile, "And what about you, Coco?"

"I...I like you too..."

Yan Keke said with her head down.

She still didn't dare to look up and meet Fan Xiao's gaze, probably because she was afraid that Fan Xiao would see her vulnerable side.

She knew that players couldn't stay in the same instance forever.

She knew that her request was weak and ineffective from the start.

But I still couldn't help but say it.

Fan Xiao reached out and touched the girl's cheeks, lifting her head so that she could meet his gaze.

He then said, "Okay, I agree."

Chapter 143 Fairy Tale Town

Fan Xiao's words stunned Yan Keke.

After a long pause of five or six seconds, the little girl finally reacted and asked incredulously, "Brother Fan... do you really want to stay?"

"Didn't you tell me to stay?" Fan Xiao asked. "Why are you starting to have doubts?"

"But... players can't stay in one place for too long, right?"

Yan Keke reminded, "If you don't go to the new dungeon, you'll be punished by the game."

If a player doesn't visit a new dungeon for a certain period of time, they will indeed be punished by the game and teleported into a high-risk dungeon.

Fan Xiao naturally knew this.

He said, "The 'return trip' of the time-travel ticket is actually very flexible."

"If I start from my own world partition to go to a dungeon, after clearing the dungeon, the 'return trip' is back to my own world."

"If I go to a dungeon from another world zone, I have two options for 'returning': I can either go back to the starting station or return directly to my original world zone."

"So it's possible for me to stay here with you."

Fan Xiao smiled and continued, "As long as you start from here to go to the dungeon, you can just come back here after you've cleared it each time."

"But... Brother Fan, you had family in your original world, right? And now you're separated from them like this..."

Yan Keke shook her head: "How can that be?"

Why are you thinking so much for me?

Fan Xiao asked with a smile, "Do you want me to stay, or do you want me to leave?"

"I...I don't know either."

Yan Keke's little face was full of struggle.

Fan Xiao suddenly reminded him, "Actually, there is a win-win solution."

"what?"

"You can come with me to my world partition."

Fan Xiao said, "This instance is a mental instance, so there shouldn't be any location requirements, right? Illusions can be set up anywhere."

"Brother Fan, you can't do it."

Yan Keke shook her head, her tone dejected, and said, "Although the dungeon is my mental space, this space has been solidified by the game into the illusion of Wangxiang Town. It is beyond my control. The only place I can control is here. I... I can't leave this place."

The little girl explained the situation to him in detail.

Fan Xiao quickly realized that Yan Keke was essentially anchored to the ruins of Wangxiang Town.

Her mental space was interfered with by the evolution game and became an instance, becoming unprecedentedly powerful, capable of creating mental illusions, mental suggestions, and false consciousness on the scale of a small town.

It can kill D-level or even C-level players without them even noticing.

But this "power" is not her own.

She couldn't control it.

She was essentially anchored to this place by that uncontrolled part of her mind, unable to leave.

Of course, even if she could leave, she couldn't.

Because she had already died physically more than a decade ago.

She is only able to survive now because she merged with the instance.

Whether she can still exist as a pure spiritual entity after leaving the instance is questionable.

Realizing this, Fan Xiao sighed, not too surprised.

He had anticipated that Yan Keke's situation would be difficult to resolve.

Fan Xiao then asked, "Is this instance beyond your control because of the 'rules,' or are you limited by your own mental strength and unable to interfere with an illusion of this scale?"

He definitely wouldn't ask this kind of question if it were any other dungeon boss.

The dungeons are created by the game's evolution, and the dungeon bosses are like hired employees who naturally cannot completely control the dungeons, which is to be expected.

However, the illusion in Wangxiang Town is different because it is based on Yan Keke's A-level spiritual energy "Delusion Kingdom". The evolution game only provides "fuel".

Logically speaking, Yan Keke's psionic creations should naturally be under her control.

"It must be limited by mental strength, right?"

Yan Keke thought for a moment, then pointed to the edge of the chaotic space and said, "I... I tried to break through the edge and invade the illusion of Wangxiang Town, but... it's too hard outside, I can't get in."

"Lack of 'fuel'..." Fan Xiao said, "No problem, leave that to me."

"..." Yan Keke kindly reminded him, "Brother Fan, your mental strength... isn't very strong."

"Don't worry, everything will work out when the time comes."

Fan Xiao smiled and said, "Let's put this issue aside for now and move on to the next one."

"Once you invade the illusion of Wangxiang Town, will there be any conflicts during the process of taking over it? Will there be any problems with this instance? For example... will it crash?"

"If it really crashes, will you disappear because of it?"

The image of "annihilating the country" and blowing up the sacrificial island flashed through his mind.

It wasn't just the island that was destroyed; the entire instance space there collapsed.

Even copies can be destroyed.

"This...I don't know either."
