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

Tanya only stopped thinking about the question of good and evil when the wedding procession returned to the Ghost Goddess Temple in Hongcun.

She realized she had been tricked by Fan Xiao.

Without black, there would be no concept or definition of white. Although the two are opposites, they are also needed by each other and cannot be separated.

According to this theory, she does seem to be a hypocrite...?

and many more!

Let's not think about this anymore!

Before long, the nine sedan chairs were carried into the Ghost Goddess Temple by the villagers of Hongcun.

A total of eighteen people, including Fan Xiao and Tanya, walked out alive.

The village chief of Hongcun came to the statue and repeated the act of worship.

Then, he turned around and shouted to Fan Xiao and the others, "The ceremony is complete!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Fan Xiao and the others noticed that the ground began to undulate.

After the wriggling stopped, they all felt a sense of loss, as if they had lost something important.

Fan Xiao stared at his feet, lost in thought.

"Could it be a shadow?"

Soon, a feeling of being invaded by a chilling aura replaced their sense of loss.

Fan Xiao felt his body temperature slowly dropping.

The changes in my body began.

This, in turn, proves that they have acquired the status of villagers in Hongcun and are transforming into secondary mountain spirits.

"go!"

Tanya ripped off her wedding dress and called out to Su and Jane.

You Guo, Ou En, and the others also moved towards the outside of the temple.

Only Fan Xiao walked towards the village chief.

Chapter 547 Fan Xiao: This world forced me to become a liar

"You really don't want to leave?"

Tanya turned around and looked at Fan Xiao, somewhat surprised.

She thought he was joking when he said that.

They're actually going to rescue someone...?

Is this what high-level kindness is...? No! I can't dwell on this theory anymore!

Thinking too much will lead to self-doubt.

Tanya quickly suppressed the thoughts in her mind.

"Let's go!" The wolf, who was not far away, turned around and shouted to Fan Xiao, "The body transformation has already begun. I can feel it. Our time is limited!"

"You guys go first, I still have some things to figure out." Fan Xiao turned around and declined the invitation to escape together: "Don't wait for me."

"Who wants to wait for you? I just want to latch onto your coattails..." Canglang muttered to himself.

She would naturally not say such things openly.

At this moment, Owen, who was already near the door, interjected, "Stop dawdling! Mr. Fan has his own considerations. With our limited capabilities, why are we worrying about this? You should know your place!"

"..."

Tanya glanced at Owen, thinking he was being sarcastic towards Fan Xiao.

But seeing the guy's expression, she felt quite surprised.

This kid... his tone and expression matched perfectly, without any sense of incongruity, and he didn't seem to be speaking with malice.

This sycophantic attitude is a stark contrast to the one he displayed at the bus station.

Uh... such an arrogant person before, how come he's changed like this after just a few days?

What happened to him?

Although curious, Tanya had no intention of delving deeper into the matter for the time being. She quickly led Sue and Jane away from the temple.

Owen and Youguo followed closely behind, catching up with them.

When the villagers of Red Village saw the group of players fleeing, they did not try to stop them and silently watched them run towards the village entrance.

As they ran, Tanya led Sue and Jane closer to Owen and asked, "How did you manage to have nine people survive on your side?"

"It's naturally thanks to Mr. Fan."

Owen glanced at Tanya and asked, "How did three of you manage to survive? How did you do that?"

"..."

It's the same question, but why does it sound like it's being asked in completely different ways?

Tanya suspected that Owen was being sarcastic, but looking at his expression... it was the same as it had been in the temple, and there was nothing out of place about it.

This guy seems genuinely puzzled by this question.

That seems even more insulting...

"Strictly speaking, there were four people! The other one stayed in Bai Village."

Tanya replied somewhat discontentedly, "He has lost his chance to become a lesser mountain spirit and can only wait for his survival time to end before leaving the instance. Of course, whether he can survive is uncertain."

There were originally two players left in Baicun, but when the Baicun team was sending off the deceased, she was lying in the coffin and heard the screams of the taciturn male player.

That player was definitely eaten by the people of Red Village, without a doubt.

"There are four..."

Owen was taken aback for a moment, then looked at him with admiration and said, "You guys are quite capable."

"..."

It was supposed to be a compliment, but Tanya and the other two felt like punching someone.

This kind of praise is worse than just scolding them!

If they are scolded, they at least have a moral high ground and can take the opportunity to teach the other party a lesson.

Su suppressed her anger and said in a slightly strange tone, "You... you've changed a lot. I remember you used to be quite arrogant... confident, how come you're starting to be confident for others now?"

"Heh, seeing the number of people on our side, don't you understand?"

Owen glanced at Su and said in a condescending tone, "It's perfectly normal for Mr. Fan to be confident. Both are C-level players, yet their strength is still unparalleled..."

"If you're out of things to say, you can just shut up!" The approaching wolf interrupted Owen: "What's the point of repeating the same thing over and over again?"

"Humph!"

Owen sneered, "That cannibalistic player is truly ill-mannered! He doesn't even know how to be grateful. Without Mr. Fan leading the team, you would be dead by now!"

"...I told you to stop spouting nonsense!"

After reprimanding them, Canglang looked at Tanya and the other two and explained his purpose for approaching them: "We're about to leave Red Village, so let's not split up. How about we team up and escape together? The number of mountain spirits in the mist is quite staggering."

"Although most mountain spirits only use physical attacks and are not difficult to deal with, a small number of them, like the subconscious manifestation of the Ghost Queen, can interfere with the mind! We currently have no tools, so we are quite passive in the face of this kind of monster."

"besides……"

Her tone became more serious as she said, "The farther we get from Red Village, the more dangerous the monsters become! When we're almost out of here... there might be some major surprise waiting for us!"

Upon hearing this, Su and Jian cast their gazes toward their leader, Tanya.

At this moment, Tanya was amazed by Fan Xiao's strength... Even a superior dog like Owen showed a completely convinced attitude, so it seems that what that guy said about "pretentious posture" in the sedan chair was true.

"No... there could be a fake one! At least that guy is definitely not a demi-human player. Demi-human players generally don't have such powerful strength. Only a bizarre talent could create such a gap between players of the same level."

"He can lie without even blinking... Hmph, that's impressive."

Tanya couldn't help but recall that theory of good and evil again... She quickly shook her head.

Damn it! Why can't I get rid of it!

"Captain, what's wrong?" Su asked, puzzled.

“It’s nothing,” Tanya looked at the wolf and nodded, “We can cooperate. But there’s one thing I have to correct you on: the tools are already usable.”

"It's usable now...?"

The wolf was taken aback.

He then subconsciously began communicating with the props.

Yu Guo, who was running on the far left, said, "It really works. I tried it after the ceremony, and I didn't expect it to connect so easily. It seems this dungeon didn't completely block our path."

"No, the fact that the items are unsealed may not be a good thing for us!"

Tanya said in a serious tone.

"With more options, our chances of escaping are much greater!" Canglang said. "Isn't that a good thing?"

After discovering that the props could actually communicate, the sense of oppression in her heart vanished instantly.

Cannibalistic players generally only have physical attack methods. After developing their second form, they gain some genetic abilities, but overall, the inability to use items is still a significant disadvantage for them.

"Having more methods is naturally a good thing."

You Guo understood Tanya's meaning and answered on her behalf: "But on the other hand, perhaps the evolution game has determined that we players can't escape from here without items, so it has unlocked the right to use items... Do you think this conclusion is still a good thing?"

"That's right, that's exactly what I'm worried about."

Tanya nodded and said, "Of course, we don't need to be too nervous."

"The unsealing of the item might be the game creating conditions for us to complete the third dungeon quest."

The third dungeon quest – End the Curse.

Based on current inferences, the goal is to defeat the Demon Queen.

If unlocking the item is related to this mission, then the difficulty of the second mission, "Escape from Red and White Village," will not be too high.

"impossible!"

Owen interjected, "Based on Mr. Fan's outstanding performance, the village chief of Red Village compromised with us and told us a lot of information."

"Even so, even with Mr. Fan around, that guy still didn't choose to let the players help him deal with the Ghost Queen, and instead placed his hopes on the future."

"If we can unlock the items, then the previous players definitely could too. Do you think the Red Village Chief doesn't know that? I bet he's already tried to cooperate with the players to defeat the Ghost Queen, but he's never succeeded, which is why he's acting like a complete slacker now."

Upon hearing this, Su and Jane looked at Owen with surprise.

This guy was all sycophantic and fawning before, but it turns out he's actually quite clever.

It seems that Mr. Fan, who chose to stay in the temple, really has some skills to turn a bright person into a sycophant!

"Items have nothing to do with extermination..."

Tanya subconsciously turned around and glanced in the direction of the Ghost Goddess Temple.

They were already far from the temple.

Fan Xiao still showed no sign of coming out, and it was unclear what he was talking about with the village chief.

Tanya withdrew her gaze, thought for a moment, and guessed, "That guy... could it be that he discovered the key information to achieve the conditions for the third mission?"

"Watch your tone!" Owen said, displeased. "What do you mean 'that guy'?"

"You've really gone too far!"

The wolf then offered a reminder... or rather, a warning.

Fan Xiao is a top player!

Even if you feel disrespect, you cannot show it openly.

If these people can't escape, Fan Xiao is fully capable of helping them—that's what she's hoping for.

"..." Tanya: "He must have found a clue to complete the third mission, but..."

She shook her head and continued, "I think escaping is the most important thing right now. We can just abandon the third mission. What about you?"
