Fallen Girl
Good heavens, they actually rewarded me with a Resurrection Sacred Canon?
Moreover, this happened even after the mission failed. If it had succeeded, wouldn't I have been rewarded with a blue-tier piece of equipment?
Overjoyed, I gained +1 to the Resurrection Sacred Canon, which means I now have two more Resurrection Sacred Canon in my storage space, allowing me to die twice in a row!
Continue, carrying the Wu Yu Yu Yu, towards the distance!
When the first rays of dawn pierced through the clouds and shone on the wilderness, we were only about ten kilometers away from the phase Phase Teleportation Array in Creek City. At that moment, I stopped my motorcycle.
"Coo coo coo..."
After getting off the Wu Yu Yu Yu's stomach started growling uncontrollably.
Her face flushed slightly. "Ding Han, is there any food? I've been locked up for a week, and they plan to starve me to death. The food I stored in the Dimensional Storage Space is all gone, and I haven't eaten anything for 24 hours now."
"Yes, please wait a moment."
I quickly took out two egg pancakes and a cup of soy milk and handed them to her.
"Xie Xie!"
Wu Yu Yu Yu didn't say much. She turned around and sat on a rock nearby, wolfing down her food. She looked really hungry, which explained her pale face.
Before long, she finished both pancakes and drank every last drop of soy milk.
"Sorry, I'm too hungry..."
She slowly stood up and smiled, "Ding Han, I don't know how to thank you. It seems that a simple Xie Xie is far from enough."
"It's nothing, don't mention it."
I smiled calmly, "Let me introduce myself, Ding Han, ID: Shadow Chaser, from Suzhou, 25 years old."
"Um."
Wu Yu Yu Yu extended her hand. "Chen Yu, 19 years old, from Xiamen, a freshman at Nanjing University. You can just call me Xiao Yu."
"Oh?"
I asked in surprise, "Which Nanjing University? Is it Nantong University or Guannan University?"
She couldn't help but chuckle, "It's the one from a 985 university."
Wow, he's actually a top student.
What are your plans for the future?
I glanced at her blood-red ID and said, "Dark Tide is an enemy faction of the Crimson Dragon Country. Your ID is red in my eyes. In your current state, you can't even enter the Crimson Dragon Country's territory. Once you do, you'll be shot dead."
"So..."
Wu Yu Yu Yu pursed her red lips. "Could you help me out? With your connections... or could you introduce me to a GM? I'm a solo player, and I think I can clear my red name and join the Crimson Dragon Country Kingdom faction by doing faction quests through a GM."
"That's one way."
I thought for a moment and said, "Let me try to contact them for you."
"Good!"
Then, I opened the Friend System and gave the Gun Like a Dragon Bullet.
"Holy crap..."
Still Gun Like a Dragon asked, "It's only six o'clock, brother. What's up?"
"It's like this..."
I briefly explained Wu Yu Yu Yu's situation, saying, "She wants to join the Crimson Dragon Country Kingdom's faction. Could you ask the Guide to come to the Creek City Teleportation Array and accept her? After all, she's a Star Speaker, and her strength in the game is quite impressive. We should try to recruit someone like her."
"You're right!"
"I wonder if the Guide has woken up yet..." Gun Like a Dragon.
"Just call him and wake him up! What's there to say? We're just trying to get him business!"
"Yes, just wait a moment!"
So, three minutes after hanging up the call, Gun Like a Dragon said, "Ding Han, the Guide has confirmed it. He'll be teleporting with me to the Creek City Teleportation Array right away. Bring Wu Yu Yu Yu here."
"Good."
After ending the call, I got back on my motorcycle and said, "Let's go, I'll take you there. An NPC called 'The Guide' will be coming over soon. Be respectful when you speak, these GMs might have a bit of a temper."
"Yes, I understand!"
She nodded repeatedly.
Soon after, the Off-road Motorcycle arrived a few hundred meters away from the Teleportation Array. Players from Huaining City and Creek City could be seen coming and going in the distance. Many people turned their attention to me because they saw that the female player behind me had a red ID and belonged to the opposing faction.
Immediately, many people became alert, and some even pulled out Submachine Gun and aimed them in this direction.
"Brothers, don't be nervous!"
I quickly raised my hand to stop her, saying, "We're on the same side, on the same side! A freshman girl from Nanjing University accidentally ended up in the Dark Tide camp, and now she's decided to abandon the darkness and join the light. Please, everyone, show some mercy..."
"Oh oh..."
A level 42 Firepower Specialist said, "So she's a Fallen Girl... Hahahaha~~~ Hurry back to the embrace of the Crimson Dragon Country, this is our home~~~"
Then, everyone walked away laughing.
Wu Yu Yu Yu clenched her little fists. "Damn it, these guys said I'm Fallen Girl, it makes me so angry..."
I laughed and looked up to see Gun Like a Dragon, Xu Tian, and the Guide behind them.
"Over here!"
After waving hello, several people walked over.
"Ouch..."
Xu Tian tilted his head and looked at the beautiful girl in front of him. "Unbelievable! There are such beautiful girls on the Dark Tide side! This is incredible!"
"Xu Tian, stop acting like a weirdo," I couldn't help but mutter.
Gun Like a Dragon chuckled and said, "Wu Yu Yu Yu, let me introduce you. This is the Guide, the manager of our group of players, responsible for our daily operations."
"Hello, Manager!"
Wu Yu Yu Yu immediately replied respectfully, "I'm a player who was thrown into the wilderness. I was accidentally captured and studied by the Dark Tide organization, and was only rescued by Ding Han in the early hours of this morning..."
She gave me a pitiful look and continued, "I want to join the Crimson Dragon Country's faction, just like everyone else, is that okay?"
"There's nothing wrong with that."
The Guide said, "However, first you must relinquish your Dark Tide identity and obtain neutrality towards the Crimson Dragon Country's faction. Only then can I give you a mission to join the faction. Don't worry, I will guide you."
The next moment, Wu Yu Yu Yu's eyes lit up, as if she had seen some kind of hint, though of course, we outsiders couldn't see it.
"Ding Han."
Xu Tian stepped forward, frowning, and said, "Why did you go to Dark Tide's side? We just got the news. You caused Dark Tide there all night, and apparently even a Dark Tide -affiliated battle group stationed nearby is about to set off to wipe you out..."
"Yeah?"
My lips twitched slightly. "They deployed an entire battle group just to kill me? They're treating me way too well..."
Hahaha~~~
Xu Tian grinned and lowered his voice, "This girl is pretty... How did you get this chance to be a hero and save the damsel in distress?"
"Where did I get this?"
I said helplessly, "When we were being chased by more than a dozen Avenger Mech from Dark Tide, she happened to be calling for help in the Star Map, so I took a detour and rescued her."
"I see..."
Xu Tian laughed, "Huaining City has gained another beautiful female player! That's great, she doesn't look very old..."
"A 19-year-old college freshman, have some decency."
"Yes, I've always been a gentleman!"
The next moment, the red ID above Wu Yu Yu Yu's head turned into a neutral yellow, and under the guidance of the Guide, she indeed broke away from the Dark Tide identity.
"Alright."
Wu Yu Yu Yu turned to look at me. "After doing a few more simple faction quests, I'll be able to obtain Crimson Dragon Country Kingdom faction status."
As she spoke, she took out her phone and said, "Ding Han, we haven't added each other on WeChat yet."
"WeChat... that makes sense."
I took out my phone, scanned the QR code, and added her. Her profile picture was a photo of her with the school gate when she first entered university; she looked very well-behaved.
"The Guide, I'm leaving Xiao Yu's matter to you!"
I stepped forward and said to the Guide, "Xie Xie!"
"You are welcome."
The Guide's response was very official. "My job is to guide you people from another world."
I think he probably doesn't know how the Initiator died, let alone that I know some secrets about the GM Key; otherwise, he wouldn't have spoken so formally.
"They're gone!"
I patted Gun Like a Dragon the shoulder and said, "I'm going back to sleep after staying up all night, I'm exhausted."
Then, he said to Wu Yu Yu Yu, "Xiao Yu, I'm going back to Huaining City. I'll contact you later."
"Okay!"
She nodded slightly, then continued with her tasks.
I took a taxi from the Player Black Market and went straight to the residential area.
It was exactly eight o'clock in the morning when I went downstairs and saw Lin Qingying coming down from upstairs.
"You..."
She asked in surprise, "Didn't you say you were going away for a few days?"
"I didn't expect things to go so smoothly."
I glanced at the breakfast stall not far away and said, "Have you eaten yet? If not, have breakfast with me before you go to work."
"Good."
The two of us sat down at a small table outside the breakfast stall. I raised my hand and said, "Boss lady, two bowls of Hulatang, two baskets of small meat buns, and six fried dough sticks, please, quickly, Xie Xie!"
"You eat so much?" Lin Qingying pursed her lips, amazed by my appetite.
"Yeah, I've been busy all night, I'm starving."
I grinned, picked up a fried dough stick, and started eating.
"Huh..."
Just then, Grandpa Li and Grandma Li passed by. He tilted his head and glanced at us, saying, "Ding Han, Xiao Lin, you haven't gone home for the New Year yet? Lots of people in the neighborhood have gone home for the New Year."
"Ding Han."
Grandma Li said, "I remember your family is from Tengshan City, right? Are you bringing Xiaoying home for the New Year this year?"
"It's already agreed."
I readily agreed, "She'll come home with me this year!"
"Hey, you little rascal..."
Grandpa Li gave me a thumbs up, and everything was understood without words.
Lin Qingying's pretty face immediately blushed slightly.
A few minutes later, a figure walked up in front of us, looking weathered and worn—it was Fatty.
"Oh, Manager Lin! Hello, Manager Lin!"
After he sat down, he first greeted Lin Qingying, then looked at me with a somewhat serious expression.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"Brother..."
The fat man's eyes were filled with sadness. "I'm taking the high-speed train home soon. See you in Tengshan City. The thought of not seeing you for several days makes me so sad that I can't eat!"
"Go to hell!"
Hahaha~~~
