The Unsung Hero of the Mysterious Forum Shares a Mysterious Code with You

"What's up?" Su Li's gaze swept over the opponent's avatar frame, which clearly displayed the words [Lv5].

"Huh? You're level 5 too?!"

He had to know, he himself had gone through battles where he almost died, involving exploding dung and backstabs, and even had to outwit and fight against the air to barely level up. Was this spider cheating?

[Pansi Dawang (Lv5): Yeah, big boss! I was pretty scared at first too, and wanted to hide from everything I saw. But later I found out that as long as I kept eating and eating, the experience bar just shot up! And it tasted pretty good!]

[Pansi Dawang: I accidentally ate a luminous beetle that passed by just now, and I instantly maxed out my level!]

Su Li: "..."

"Eating and eating lets you evolve? Isn't that too easy? Why do I have to go through life and death doing quests and killing monsters above my level?"

"Is this the gap in racial talent? As expected, in this world that values looks, skeletons have no human rights. After all, skeletons don't have faces..."

Although he was inwardly extremely jealous, he couldn't lose his cool demeanor as a big boss.

[Su Li (Anonymous): Cough, not bad, very spirited. So, what did you need me for?]

[Pansi Dawang: It's like this, big boss! Since you're the highest level among us, you must be very experienced. I wanted to ask for your advice on choosing an evolution path. I have decision paralysis!]

Su Li felt a bit speechless about this.

[Su Li (Anonymous): Uh, you're a spider, and I'm a skeleton. We're different species, so it's hard for me to give you professional advice. It's like asking me how to weave a web, I wouldn't know how.]

[Pansi Dawang: It's okay, big boss! Please, big boss, guide me! My head is already spinning looking at these two options!]

Su Li sighed.

[Su Li: Fine, since you've asked so sincerely, I'll mercifully tell you.]

[Su Li: Since we're at a disadvantage in the early game, to deal with any potential adventurers and powerful monsters, I suggest prioritizing evolution directions with special abilities, such as poison, control, or extreme speed. These three are life-saving skills in the early stages.]

There was a two-second silence on the other end, followed by an instant reply:

[Pansi Dawang: Got it, big boss! I understand! I'm evolving right now! I want to become strong like you, big boss!]

Looking at the swift reply, Su Li shook his head.

"This kid, is he really that easily fooled? I hope he survives the next chapter."

Glancing at the time, it was already evening in the real world.

"Pipi Axe, Pipi Finger, you two guard this coffin for me. Anyone who dares to enter, beat them to death!"

After settling his two great guardians, Su Li peacefully lay down in the stone coffin that originally belonged to the Corpse Demon Tyrant, and even pulled the lid halfway shut.

"This bed is a bit hard, but it gives me a sense of security."

"Module, activate! If anyone enters, let's have a righteous group beating!"

Afterward, he chose to log off, and Su Li's consciousness gradually faded.

On the other side, in a dark tunnel.

A spider was clinging to a giant spider web, muttering to itself while looking at the evolution panel before it.

"The big boss is right, special abilities are king!"

"Option two, [Venomous Wolf Spider], is not bad, but it looks too ugly. It's clearly heading towards being a monster. Although the experience of being a spider is novel, if possible, I still want to turn back into a human."

Its compound eyes flickered with longing.

"I'm so envious of that Slime guy. I heard he got the [Mimicry] skill at just level 3. Although he can only turn into a jelly-like Slime girl, it's still a human form! I want one too!"

Finally, it gritted its teeth and selected option one.

"Then I'll take a gamble! [Phantom Dream Weaver]! The name alone suggests a lot of room for maneuver!"

At the same time, inside a certain mine.

A slime, entirely blue, was feasting on a pile of glowing ores.

Suddenly, it sneezed loudly, its entire body trembling like jelly.

"Huh? Can slimes sneeze? Is Spider-chan missing me?"

It extended a tentacle to scratch its round head and sent a private message to Pansi Dawang:

[Hey hey, Spider-chan, what are you doing? Why aren't you replying to my messages?]

It waited for a long time with no response.

"Oh well, I'll keep eating. This stone tastes amazing, like chicken, crunchy!"

"I'm gonna swallow it!!"

In the real world, at Su Li's home, Su Li took off his helmet and sat up in bed.

"Hoo--"

He stretched his arms, and his bones made a cracking sound like popping beans.

"Oh, damn, this feels so good?"

Su Li swung his arms, feeling a surge of strength throughout his body. His muscles weren't exaggerated, but they were firm and powerful.

He had to know, as a lifelong shut-in otaku, his physical condition had always been "out of breath after running a few steps," a sub-healthy state. He had never felt so energetic before.

"Can this game really strengthen the body as advertised?"

Su Li jumped out of bed and walked to the washstand to look in the mirror.

"Hmm... still so handsome! But why won't these dark circles under my eyes go away? Could it be a side effect of mental power overdraft? Looks like I need to sleep early tonight to test it."

After a simple wash, Su Li took off his clothes, preparing to take a shower.

As the hot water washed over his body, he looked down at his arms and chest.

"Holy crap, was I this fair before?"

Although his skin had always been fair because he stayed home and out of the sun, this current fairness had a warm, jade-like texture, and even his pores were much finer.

"My skin quality is good enough to shoot a skincare commercial!"

Suddenly, Su Li's mind flashed back to his sister's words that morning, "It's very bad for your health," and that look of misunderstanding.

His face stiffened. "Could it really be from playing the pilot too much? Is this a sickly pallor?"

Su Li shivered.

"To avoid a wheelchair in the future, for the dignity of a man, I've decided! I will abstain from lust from now on! I will be a person detached from low-level interests!"

Ten o'clock at night.

Su Lin Yue, carrying her schoolbag, pushed open the door with the fatigue of evening self-study.

Seeing Su Li sitting on the sofa playing on his phone, she glared fiercely before walking straight into her room.

Half an hour later, the bathroom door opened, and a girl with wet hair wrapped in a towel walked out.

"Idiot older brother." Su Lin Yue said, wiping her hair, while staring intently at Su Li with the look one gives a pervert.

"If you dare to play that kind of game again tonight, I'll never speak to you again! And I'll tell Mom in heaven!"

Su Li looked innocent and quickly raised his hands in surrender.

"I'm framed, Yueyue! I promise I absolutely won't play that stuff! I'm a gentleman!"

To prove his innocence, he specifically showed the game helmet in his hand.

"See, this is just a normal virtual online game helmet, not some lewd device. And it really uses microcurrents to stimulate the body and aid deep sleep. I feel great now!"

Su Lin Yue looked at him suspiciously for a moment, then at the high-tech helmet.

"Really?"

"More real than real gold!" The girl narrowed her eyes and extended a fair little hand.

"Hand over your phone!"

"Huh? What do you need my phone for?"

Although he had something to hide, Su Li still had to obediently hand it over.

Su Lin Yue took the phone, skillfully entered the password, and then opened some hidden folders and browsing history.

"You perverted older brother! Having a cute sister like me isn't enough, you actually hid so much... so much shameless stuff!"

Looking at the indescribable learning materials on the screen, Su Lin Yue's small face instantly turned red.

"Delete it! Delete it all!" Su Lin Yue's fingers danced like she was playing a piano.

Su Li watched from the side, his heart bleeding, and let out a pig-like wail:

"No!! My Holy Sword!! Those are rare, out-of-print resources!!"

Five minutes later, Su Lin Yue threw the thoroughly cleaned phone back to Su Li and nodded with satisfaction.

"Alright, go to bed early. If I find out you're secretly downloading again... Hmph!"

She made a scissor gesture, then turned and went back to her room, closing the door with a "bang."

The living room returned to silence. Su Li held his empty phone, a heartbroken expression on his face.

However, the next second, the corners of his mouth curved into a meaningful smile.

"Heh heh, my foolish One More."

"As an old driver who has always played the role of an unknown hero on major forums and shared mysterious codes, how could I possibly only have this one hideout?"

"Cloud backups, hidden hard drives, encrypted cloud storage... the principle of a cunning rabbit having three burrows is quite simple."

Su Li glanced at the closed bedroom door. "Heh heh, women only slow down my sword-drawing speed."

"Aiseland Continent, I'm back!"
