"And there are the rules for the manifestation of fantasy..."
Fan Xiao hasn't forgotten that Fairy Tale Town's predecessor, "Wang Town," had a tradition of telling horror stories.
He immediately made changes to the seventh level, "The Fairy House in the Forest"—the monsters described in the fairy tales told by players in the fairy house would appear in the fairy town as illusionary creatures and attack all players.
Similar to the situation in "Wangxiang Town", the monsters created by these players can only survive for one instance cycle.
They will disappear when the copy ends.
After coming up with the idea, Fan Xiao modified and uploaded the rule.
To his surprise, the change was rejected by the Evolution game.
"It doesn't work... Is it too difficult, or too easy?"
After a moment's thought, he changed "telling ordinary fairy tales" to "telling dark fairy tales".
Soon, a notification came that the rule change had been successfully completed.
"..."
Fan Xiao couldn't help but silently mourn for a few seconds for the players who would soon be venturing into Fairy Tale Town.
This is a forced intervention by the evolutionary game, which is beyond his control.
The monsters created from the player's story probably won't obey his and the other little girls' commands.
At most, they have the privilege of not being attacked by these monsters.
In other words... the "zero mortality rate" rule of the fairy tale town is likely to be broken.
Players who come to this instance in the future may be trapped in the instance by the story they tell, attacked by a group of dark fairy tale monsters, and left in the instance in a state of "brain death".
"Evolution games are always bloody..."
Fan Xiao sighed softly.
He quickly composed himself and focused his energy on the upcoming "hunt".
Yan Keke and her group have already gone off to "play tricks," and it won't be long before they can make most of the people who enter the instance break the rules and become targets for their attacks.
On his side, he had to deal with Alan Roman, who could see through illusions.
"As expected, that idiot Allen will probably gather the people around him and make a simple show of protecting them."
"If you want to kill them, either scatter them and kill them one by one when Allen can't see them, or... kill Allen first, then you can kill the others at will."
Fan Xiao thought for a moment and quickly drafted a battle plan.
Since he's in his own instance, he can find a place to hide whenever he wants.
Since that's the case... let's just be reckless.
……
Among the people forcibly pulled into the fountain square were both players and ordinary people.
At this moment, all the players' expressions turned serious, and they withdrew their gazes from looking around.
Their player panel has changed; a game notification has been updated.
The "Fairy Tale Town" instance is now open.
[Background: In the castle of Fairy Tale Town lived a beautiful princess and her handsome brother. One day, the brother left the castle, leaving the princess feeling lonely. So she decided to embark on a journey to find him.]
The princess first found the magic mirror, asked about her brother's location, and after receiving a reply, secretly slipped out of the castle.
This was the princess's first time leaving the castle, and she soon discovered that she had a terrible sense of direction, getting lost very quickly. Luckily, she met the little match girl, who was very hungry. The princess bought her lots of candy from the sweet shop, and the little girl was overjoyed, showing the princess the way.
The princess continued her journey, but soon she got lost again. This time, kind Cinderella helped her, and in gratitude, the princess gave Cinderella a pair of glass slippers.
After leaving Cinderella, the princess traveled for a while and got lost for the third time. Luckily, she met Little Red Riding Hood. After rescuing Little Red Riding Hood from the Big Bad Wolf, Little Red Riding Hood told the princess the new route.
After getting lost for the fourth time, the princess came to a game room and played many games with the girls there. To express their gratitude, the girls told the princess the direction to her next destination.
Following the directions, the princess arrived at the riverbank but got lost again. A fisherman nearby told her that the little goldfish in the river knew the way forward. The princess bought a fishing rod and bait from the fisherman, caught the little goldfish, and after asking it, received a reply from the little goldfish.
Following the direction indicated by the little goldfish, the princess crossed the river and entered the forest, only to get lost again. Luckily, she met a fairy who lived in the forest. To satisfy the fairy's peculiar tastes, the princess told her a cruel and dark fairy tale. The fairy, captivated by the story, told the princess the way forward.
Following the guidance, the princess arrived at the gates of Hell. Bravely relying on the magical abilities she had honed since childhood, she defeated the three-headed dog guarding the gates, as well as the wandering demons, skeletons, and ghosts, until she reached the Demon King. The Demon King admired her courage and determination and gave her the answer she longed for.
Having obtained the answer, the princess arrived in the Ice Kingdom. Her wisdom allowed her to break the curse on the Ice Queen, bringing spring back to the land, causing flowers to bloom, thus pleasing the powerful queen and obtaining the final route from her.
The princess ran along the path the queen had indicated, and finally found her brother at the end.
【hint:】
1. Do not attack the real residents of Fairy Tale Town.
2. The Fairy Tale Town Doesn't Welcome Robbers

4. Violating the rules will result in penalties from the dungeon boss.
[Instance Quest:]
[1. Survived for 3 days]
2. Find the princess who ran away from home
[Note: You can clear this dungeon by fulfilling any of the mission requirements.]
"..."
Allen frowned, his expression shifting between light and dark.
The guard standing next to him, Lei Zhe, also looked rather unpleasant.
Reiji reminded Allen, "Lord Allen..."
"Don't call out names randomly in the dungeon!" Allen warned. "Without tickets, we can't determine the level of this random dungeon yet, so be careful and keep your information confidential."
“Hmm,” Reiz nodded, “Boss, I just observed that we seem to have been separated. There are only about one-fifth of the people in the fountain square, and they are all banquet participants. All the desserts are gone.”
"This instance may be controlled by Mammon. Mammon's people never do anything without profit. They must have something to gain by bringing us in."
Allen analyzed, "Find the person who threw out the blood-red compass earlier; he should be able to answer our questions."
"Could he have missed entering the instance?" Rezhe reminded him. "He disappeared before all of us; perhaps he escaped?"
"Impossible!" Allen said. "Once trapped in the random entrance of a random instance, there's no hope of escape. Instance teleportation is the highest level of forced teleportation in the Evolution Game. He must have been dragged into the instance before us."
"Since this place might be Mammon's territory, and as a member of Mammon, he must be very familiar with it, we probably won't be able to find him easily."
After thinking for a moment, Lei Zhe suggested, "How about we meet up with the players from Star Memory City first? Mammon's people were brought into the banquet by them, so they might know something."
“Hmm…do as you say.” Allen nodded: “It’ll be safer to regroup first.”
At this moment, the banquet participants standing in the fountain square, perhaps having recovered from their initial shock, all moved closer to Allen and Reiji, surrounding the two of them.
"Allen, I only came here because I was giving you face! How could this happen!?"
"What level of random dungeon is this? You should know something about it, right?"
"Allen, I'm just an ordinary person! You have a responsibility to protect us! If anything happens to me, hmph... forget about any future cooperation with our family! And forget about competing for the Pope's position!"
"That's right! You have to protect us!"
"..."
Allen forced down his impatience and smiled as he addressed the crowd, saying, "Don't worry, everyone. As the host of this banquet, I will naturally ensure the safety of all our guests."
"There's one thing I need to clarify: the random dungeon's arrival was due to someone causing trouble; it was an accident. How can an accident be predicted in advance?"
"I did not intend to harm you all; this is a man-made disaster. Alas... In any case, I will do my best to protect you all. You are probably familiar with my strength, so please rest assured."
After saying those nice words, he and Lei Zhe exchanged a glance and tacitly agreed on their next course of action.
Whether or not to protect others depends on the level of danger in the next instance.
Since the instance wasn't dangerous, he naturally wouldn't mind protecting these people and helping them leave the instance together.
After all, he still has to continue his church activities after returning to Division 001. If he goes back alone, he might offend so many families at once, which he can't afford to do.
If the dungeon is dangerous... then naturally you should protect yourself first.
In the end, those who follow them will become cannon fodder for their dangerous experiments.
As for what to do when he returns to Roman City after doing this... at worst, he won't be able to compete for the position of Pope. He can simply leave, depart from Division 001, and completely join "that organization."
No matter what, there is always a way out. Although Allen was angry about the unexpected turn of events, he was not anxious.
"From now on, we all need to work together. Please stick with me and don't get separated."
Allen continued, "I'm sure you've all seen the introduction to the dungeon. If you haven't, just follow me."
"Based on my speculation, the 'princess looking for her brother' story in the background introduction is a hint to us. Each time the princess gets lost, it represents a difficulty we will soon face."
“We will probably face nine trials, and then, like the princess, we will obtain nine pieces of information from each of the nine trials, piece together the complete clues, and deduce the answer—that is, where we can find the princess.”
"The first test...we have to find the magic mirror in the castle."
"You don't necessarily have to complete all nine trials, do you? You're talking about the highest difficulty."
Among the crowd were some clever people. A tall, thin player in a tuxedo said, "Besides that, you can also choose the route of surviving for three days."
"If we choose this route, all we need to do is find the fairy house in the forest."
“Every night, go to the Fairy House and tell a dark fairy tale. The rest of the time, focus on defense. That way, after three days, we can leave… leave… what!?”
Before he could finish speaking, the tall, thin male player suddenly narrowed his eyes and quickly took several steps back, knocking over two or three people behind him.
"What are you doing..."
Immediately, some players voiced their dissatisfaction.
However, he stopped talking halfway through his rant.
Everyone followed the tall, thin male player's gaze and saw a large army of monsters charging towards the fountain square.
A towering humanoid rabbit knight, upright-walking animals, a roaring lion, a ferocious three-headed hellhound, and evil spirits and demons floating in the air... all sorts of monsters formed an army and surrounded the group.
Like a terrifying tsunami, it had an astonishing force.
This is undoubtedly Van Chau's masterpiece.
He commanded most of the monsters in Fairy Tale Town to rush towards the banquet participants in the fountain square.
Despite the grand scale of the event, it was actually just a show.
None of the people in the square have violated the dungeon rules so far, and as the dungeon boss, he cannot command the dungeon monsters to attack these people.
The reason for making such a big move is to scare people.
Faced with such a tremendous threat, everyone was forced to scatter like birds and beasts, each fleeing for their lives.
Once they are separated... or rather, separated from Alan Roman, who can see through illusions, Yan Keke and the other little girls can carry out their seduction work without any scruples.
At the same time, these monsters also serve as a cover—to conceal his sudden attack.
Fan Xiao mingled among the monsters, patiently waiting for the distance to close.
At this moment, the people in the fountain square could not withstand the immense pressure, and those with ranged attack items took them out and began their attack.
However, after a round of bombardment, they found that the monsters were all unharmed and their charge was not hindered in the slightest.
Everyone looked terrified and began to scatter and run away.
Many ordinary people let out pathetic screams.
Allen frowned as well. After realizing that the props were ineffective, he tentatively launched an attack using his mental talent.
The next second, several illusionary monsters were sent flying by his mental attack.
Fan Xiao, who had approached them, was also caught in the impact.
However, he hid behind the monster and was not discovered by Allen.
"We're under attack... Hey!"
Fan Xiao's lips curled up slightly.
Just now, when the player next to Allen attacked, he went over to him.
When Allen attacked, he moved closer again.
As the dungeon boss, he is naturally considered a "true resident" of Fairy Tale Town.
