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

There's plenty of time now, we can look slowly... no, we can't look slowly, we have to hurry.

Dr. Zhuang cannot be trusted; he may already have some suspicions about Fan Xiao's situation. We must find Fan Xiao before Dr. Zhuang does.

Thinking of this, Gu Hange straightened her slightly disheveled clothes, then took out a train ticket, used it, and entered the station.

Fortunately, she is still within the coverage area of ​​the evolution game.

Otherwise, finding Fan Xiao again would take a lot of effort—she herself would first need to find a way to return to the Evolution Game.

If she doesn't find a way to return, after the interval between instances expires, the game will prepare a high-risk instance as a gift and come looking for her.

Seeing the approaching train, Gu Hange didn't rush to get in. Instead, she took out the "Mirror of Sincerity" and murmured, "Mirror, mirror on the wall, tell me, is Fan Xiao the most handsome man in the world?"

"Yes, Master, he is a thousand times more handsome than you."

"I want to go back to where I was before. Which direction should I go?"

Gu Hange asked.

Real-time navigation appeared on the surface of the magic mirror.

Once back in the previous position, the magic mirror will be able to detect where Fan Xiao has gone.

If she can't detect it... then she'll go back to partition 019 and wait for it to come to her.

Fan Xiao will definitely go back.

……

G04 node.

Partition 021.

With a loud bang, Fan Xiao crashed through the roof of a building and landed in a house.

This family is having dinner; the dining room and living room are connected.

Seeing Fan Xiao smash the sofa and crash heavily onto the floor, making quite a commotion, the family of three who were eating stared in disbelief, momentarily forgetting to chew their food.

Just as they were about to scream, Fan Xiao connected to Fairy Tale Town and started a random entrance/exit.

Under the mental interference of the illusion, the family of three fell into a deep sleep.

Fan Xiao glanced at the rooftop, sofa, and floor he had damaged, then activated his "Forgetfulness Domain" to suppress the surrounding commotion, making those who heard the noise forget about it.

He then took out some game tokens and threw them on the dining table.

This can be seen as compensation for the damage he caused.

Yan Keke came to his side and asked, "Brother Fan, where is this? Where is everyone else?"

"I was cornered by Dr. Zhuang. Although I managed to escape, I got separated from the others," Fan Xiao replied.

"Huh?" Yan Keke immediately became nervous as she entered: "Then... what do we do now? Should we go back to Fairy Tale Town to take refuge?"

“No, there’s no point in seeking refuge now,” Fan Xiao said. “Dr. Zhuang has the means to pursue across nodes, and it’s only a matter of time before he finds me and the others again. Although I don’t know how he did it, we must eliminate him immediately to quell this incident.”

"But our foreign aid hasn't arrived yet."

Yan Keke became anxious.

“The game of evolution is too big; distant water can't quench immediate thirst. We can only rely on ourselves for this,” Fan Xiao said. “Don’t worry, I have a Plan B.”

"Plan B?"

Yan Keke said in surprise.

Given her current predicament, she couldn't think of any other feasible plan besides escaping.

“Leave this to me,” Fan Xiao said. “In the coming period, I will only open the random entrance to the dungeon when necessary, to prevent Dr. Zhuang from using unknown means to locate Fairy Tale Town and raid our base if it is opened too often.”

"What is Brother Fan going to do?" Yan Keke asked with concern.

"Let's talk about it after we've finished it. The props are all sorts of strange things. If we talk about it, it might be recorded and found out by others."

Fan Xiao patted Yan Keke's hair and comforted her, "Don't worry, my plan is very solid. Keke, you go back to Fairy Tale Town first and keep an eye on the whereabouts of the other people. Once someone provides the ritual coordinates, you can transfer them in."

"Ok!"

Yan Keke obeyed the instructions and quickly disappeared.

Fan Xiao then took out a train ticket and went to the station in his district.

While waiting for the car, he took out a large number of Grade C and Grade D mental recovery potions from his storage space and drank them all.

I was almost drained dry by Gu Hange before!

With his remaining mental energy, he couldn't even maintain the appearance of the little angel.

This time, it was indeed quite dangerous.

Fortunately, Yu Xuezhao had a powerful move up her sleeve and managed to rescue them.

A short while later, the time-travel train arrived at the station.

After getting on the bus, Fan Xiao found a seat and waited patiently for his mental energy to recover.

"Yu Xuezhao's powerful move is truly terrifying. It must have shattered space to a very deep extent, otherwise it wouldn't have been able to reach other nodes."

While resting, Fan Xiao recalled the A-grade spatial artifact that Tina had mentioned when she had disgusted him before.

That item has the function of randomly opening a teleportation vortex leading to other nodes, and it can only be opened once a month.

Since A-grade items can achieve this level of capability, it's not too surprising that Yu Xue Zhao can do the same.

The most pressing concern right now is the time factor.

He didn't know how Dr. Zhuang had found their location.

The unknown means anything can happen.

Assuming Dr. Zhuang comes looking for them again, it will take very little time... They are now alone, and the situation they face is even more dangerous than before.

Even if you're not alone... if you keep waiting, you'll still end up with the same fate as before.

Time... It takes time for foreign aid to arrive, and they clearly can't wait until then.

The train moved forward slowly.

Fan Xiao waited silently, occasionally connecting with Fairy Tale Town.

At one point, Yu Xuezhao suddenly teleported through Fairy Tale Town and appeared in the seat opposite him.

"Junior brother, are you okay?"

Yu Xue Zhao looked Fan Xiao up and down.

Fan Xiao shook his head and said, "It's alright. Only you came here, Senior Sister... Bai Zhi... she should have fallen into a node outside the radiation range of Fairy Tale Town, G02? Or G01?"

At this point, he remarked with emotion, "Bai Zhi's luck remains as good as ever."

"Why do you say that?" Yu Xuezhao asked.

“She is not Dr. Zhuang and Gu Hange’s target. This incident has nothing to do with her, so the best way to avoid danger is to distance herself from me.”

Fan Xiao said, "She has the ritual paper that connects to Fairy Tale Town. Given her personality, she definitely won't stay out of it. Only by falling outside the area of ​​effect of the instance can she avoid getting involved in this matter any further."

"You mean..." Yu Xuezhao noted down Lu Baizhi's characteristics: "We don't need to look for her for now?"

"Yes, not for now. I'll go find her myself after this is over."

Fan Xiao nodded: "As for Yin... it's a bit strange that she hasn't contacted me yet."

"Even if she falls outside the radiation range of Fairy Tale Town, she can return to her own instance first, and then connect to mine."

"According to what you said before, Senior Sister, her B-level instance can reach at least 20 nodes with the same letter, so she shouldn't fall outside the range of her own instance all at once."

"She didn't contact me immediately... there are two possibilities."

As he pondered, he said, "Either it's a difference in the flow of time, and she hasn't reacted yet."

"Or... she's trapped in her own instance, like she just teleported back and the instance opened... or something like that."

"Hmm... there is still a possibility, and it's not small."

Yu Xuezhao affirmed: "As long as Dr. Zhuang isn't an idiot, he would definitely think of starting with the dungeon to force his junior sister to return to the 019 division."

"Junior Sister must have just happened to catch the train ticket players entering the dungeon. As soon as she returned as the dungeon BOSS, the dungeon automatically opened."

"So, Dr. Zhuang should be heading back right now."

Fan Xiao said thoughtfully, "After the Moneta dungeon closes, he can re-enter with his ticket, seamlessly connecting the two, and then he can catch Silver."

"Or... he tampered with the tickets of the players who entered the instance, thus obtaining the spatial location of the Moneta instance. He will make his move as soon as the instance closes."

"Yin... might be in danger."

Of course, this is thinking about the worst-case scenario.

On the bright side, my junior sister might have just fallen into a certain zone and hasn't gotten back on her feet yet.

Based on "Murphy's Law," Fan Xiao considered the worst-case scenario.

He continued, "My older sister, Gu Hange, would surely have thought of this as well."

"At the same time, she also calculated that we would be so eager to save people that we would definitely go to the 019 section."

"So she will return there ahead of time and wait for us to come to her door."

Upon hearing this, Yu Xuezhao frowned slightly and asked, "How long will the Moni Tower instance last after it opens?"

“It’s three days inside the instance,” Fan Xiao replied. “How much time will pass outside is uncertain; it might be even less.”

"Three days... that's not enough time for the foreign aid to get here."

Yu Xuezhao thought for a moment and said, "Let's go and carry out the rescue. Although it's a bit dangerous, we still have a chance of success."

“No,” Fan Xiao shook her head and said, “Once bitten, twice shy. This time, Dr. Zhuang and Gu Hange suffered a loss at your hands, Senior Sister. Next time, they will definitely be prepared with all their might. Our chances of a successful rescue are slim.”

"Are you planning to give up?" Yu Xuezhao asked.

She didn't say whether it was good or bad; her gaze was quite indifferent.

Fan Xiao smiled and said, "Of course I can't let you look down on me, Senior Sister. Don't worry, Senior Sister, I have a plan."

Upon hearing this, Yu Xuezhao nodded, seemingly quite satisfied with Fan Xiao's attitude.

Then she asked, "What method?"

"It's better to rely on yourself than others! Don't count on foreign aid this time."

Fan Xiao said, "Give me two days, and I can come up with a way to deal with Dr. Zhuang and Gu Hange."

"During this period, Senior Sister, please go to Zone 019 and provide me with the coordinates every now and then."

"Once I'm ready here, I'll respond to your call, Senior Sister."

"Um... OK."

Yu Xuezhao gave up the urge to ask further questions.

Everyone has their own secrets, and she wouldn't reveal everything about herself to her junior brother.

Her junior colleague had consistently performed exceptionally well, so she chose to trust him.

Yu Xue Zhao said, "Be careful in your actions. Alright, take me back now."

Fan Xiao nodded and clapped his hands.

The next second, Yu Xuezhao was drawn back into Fairy Tale Town.

Fan Xiao calmed down and continued to wait.

His solution was simple—call for backup.

Use luck to find players in real time, saving you waiting time.

Tina was shaken into his arms in the same way a long time ago, and this is just the same thing happening again.

Of course, this time the amount of luck required is definitely much greater than last time.

Last time, Tina, guided by the revelation of the "Wheel of Fate," arrived at node G08, in a partition near her previous location.

So he easily shook me off.

This time, he's essentially going to "pull" powerful players over directly from the earlier nodes.

The difficulty levels of these two are not even in the same league.
