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

Fan Xiao then said, "It's okay if you lose, I'll cover for you."

The rules of the interactive game do not prohibit the use of props.

His "dustless shield" was enough to protect Lu Baizhi from harm.

"Let's begin," Lu Baizhi said.

"The person who loses rock-paper-scissors has to get hit, or they can run away and I won't play with you guys next time."

The chimpanzee offered a reminder.

Then it put its hands behind its back.

Lu Baizhi followed suit and also put her right hand behind her back.

"It's about to begin, Arrow Rock Paper!"

After the chimpanzee finished speaking, an arm emerged from behind it—it produced a stone.

Lu Baizhi produced the cloth.

"you lose."

Lu Baizhi raised her right hand and gently slapped the chimpanzee on the face.

She dared not exert any force for fear of violating the rules of the instance.

"Hmph, it was just the first round, I let you win!"

The chimpanzee retorted defiantly, "Again!"

Then, it produced scissors.

Lu Baizhi produced a stone.

"Damn it... let's do it again!"

"Come again!"

"Come again!"

"Again……"

"you lose."

Lu Baizhi reminded her, "I've already hit you five times."

"Why won't you let me have my way! You adults are so mean, so mean!"

The chimpanzee burst into tears on the spot.

However, none of the three people present felt sorry for it. Instead, they were made to vomit by its childlike voice, which was completely out of place with its body.

Holy crap! This contrast is disgusting!

"Sweetie, eat your food before you cry."

Lu Baizhi took out a piece of smoked meat from her feeding bag.

Upon seeing the food, the chimpanzee stopped crying, grabbed it, and stuffed it into its mouth.

Then, while chewing, he made satisfied sounds.

After it finished eating, it handed a "good friend badge" to Lu Baizhi.

It was a badge the size of a coin, with two little people holding hands engraved on it.

After accepting the badge, Lu Baizhi said, "Let's play another round."

"Come on! I'm sure I can beat you this time!"

The chimpanzee seemed to have been provoked and stared at Lu Baizhi, ignoring Fan Xiao and Lu Xining.

"Rock, paper, scissors..."

……

After emerging from the glass house, Lu Baizhi looked at the three badges in her hand and said with satisfaction, "This dungeon was so easy."

Lu Xining: "..."

"Sister, Fan Xiao, here you go."

Lu Baizhi took out two badges and gave one to Lu Xining and one to Fan Xiao.

Before entering the dungeon, the three of them established a teammate relationship of helping each other.

Therefore, Lu Xining and Fan Xiao didn't make any pretense and accepted it directly.

“I think the second dungeon quest, ‘Fulfilling the children’s wishes,’ might be related to these animals.”

While playing with the small badge, Lu Xining said, "That chimpanzee monster... its animal voice sounds like a child's. Could other animals be like that too? Could they be the so-called 'children'?"

The Counter-Damage Rule in Chapter 79

Hearing her sister's guess, Lu Baizhi thought for a moment and then agreed, "I think it's very likely."

"In this zoo, the only animal that can be associated with 'children' is the chimpanzee's childlike voice. If other animals were like that, then 'children' would probably refer to them."

"I just don't know what these animals wish for..."

"Chimpanzees love playing games. If other animals were like them, I guess the 'children' would just want to play games with humans."

Lu Xining speculated, "Perhaps if we play the game with all the animals in this zoo, we can achieve the mission objective."

"Shall we play them all once...?"

Lu Baizhi was somewhat eager to try.

Lu Xining glanced at her sister and continued, "Not only are the animals problematic, but I think Director Chen is probably problematic too. Maybe he's a zoo director on the surface, but secretly a mad scientist who likes to conduct research on the fusion of humans and animals. These animals might all be his 'masterpieces.' And..."

She paused for a moment, then continued, "I don't know if you noticed, but the background information for the instance mentions that 'in order to give these animals a warm home, Director Chen demolished the old facilities here and built this zoo.'"

"What does 'old facility' refer to here? Could there be something fishy going on? This could be a hint from the game."

Upon hearing this, Lu Baizhi asked curiously, "What do you think it could be, sister?"

"It may have been a large orphanage or similar facility in the past."

Lu Xining said, "Director Chen experimented on the children in the orphanage, creating these talking monsters. This kind of plot is very common in novels."

After a conversation, the two sisters seemed to have figured out the answer.

Lu Xining looked at Fan Xiao and asked, "Fan... what are you going to call Fan this time?"

“Fan Ren,” Fan Xiao said, “I am Fan Ren, and Fan Ren is me.”

"..." Lu Xining: "What do you think about this?"

“Your speculation makes some sense; this place could indeed have been an orphanage or similar facility before, however…”

Fan Xiao thought for a moment and said, "The conjecture that 'animals are equivalent to children' is a bit too presumptuous. Moreover, it's also a bit too simplistic."

"It is indeed a bit too simple, but..."

Lu Xining reminded, "This is only an E-level dungeon, so its difficulty is limited."

"Moreover, the idea that animals are 'children' is simple and crude, but we have to play games with all the animals, which is difficult in itself."

"It's easy to guess, but hard to do. Perhaps this is the test of the second dungeon mission."

"Don't jump to conclusions yet. Didn't we previously speculate that the zoo's secret would only be revealed at night? It's not nighttime yet."

Fan Xiao laughed and said, "Let's collect badges and intelligence at the same time. Maybe we'll come up with a different conclusion once we have more intelligence."

"Let's check with the other animals first."

Lu Baizhi suggested, "Let's listen to their voices. Are they very young, like chimpanzees? And how strong is their desire to play games?"

Fan Xiao and Lu Xining both nodded.

After making their decision, the three of them went to the nearby signboard.

The animals shown on the standee are somewhat different from those before.

It seems there are many animals in this zoo.

This is good news.

That's bad news too.

On the positive side, there's no need to worry about not having enough badges.

On the downside, the large number of animals means that the workload for them to verify their conjectures is enormous.

It will probably take several days to complete.

"This time we're going to..."

Lu Baizhi looked at the signboard and made her choice based on her intuition: "The six domestic animals."

……

Fan Xiao guessed that the so-called "six domestic animals" were probably animals mixed together from the six domestic animals.

That is, pigs, cows, sheep, horses, chickens, and dogs.

As for whether these animals are evolutionary failures, that remains to be seen.

Whether it's true, as the Lu Xining sisters speculated, that the animals were created by Director Chen using the children for experiments, it's hard to say at the moment.

Judging from the current situation, the latter seems more likely.

Because failed evolvers lose their sanity.

Although these animals may seem somewhat immature in their thinking and speech, at least they have brains.

As for the analogy with the island god...

The island god is a high-level player, so that's an exception.

Soon, Fan Xiao and his two companions arrived at their destination—a place that resembled a gladiatorial arena.

It just didn't have spectator seats, nor was it as spacious as a real gladiatorial arena.

The area was fenced off with wooden railings, and the gate was very tall, about four meters high.

Fan, Xiao, and the other two stopped and observed the gate not far away.

Just as they were about to move forward, they suddenly heard a crashing sound.

Bang! The wooden fence at the gate was knocked over, and a tall, thin player flew out and crashed heavily to the ground.

The player's forehead was covered in blood and gore, with blood flowing out continuously.

After getting up from the ground, he almost lost his balance, feeling completely disoriented.

"Hahaha... You lost, you lost."

"So weak, so weak, even adults are so weak."

"Quickly, give me some smoked meat jerky, quickly, give me some smoked meat jerky."

A minotaur emerged from the broken gate, shouting in a childlike voice.

It was a monster that would cause intense discomfort to anyone.

It has a huge bull's head with thick horns and a ferocious, bulging skull.

But there is a rooster's comb standing upright in the middle of its horns.

And its body was so fat that it looked like a pig magnified several times.

His limbs, however, were as agile as a horse's.

Like a chimera, it looks very abstract.

"I'll give you a damn!"

The bald player who was knocked away cursed loudly.

At this moment, another player walked out of the area enclosed by the wooden fence.

He was wearing a tight vest, carrying a large knife, and had a fierce look on his face.

The player in the vest and the bald player appeared to be teammates, standing together and facing the minotaur directly in front of them.
