Xiao Jing and His Wife
Xiao Fan sat upright at the dining table, facing a middle-aged couple whose faces were clearly forced smiles.
The food on the dining table was plentiful, creating a stark contrast with the old-fashioned environment of the living room.
Xiao Fan has not received any notifications regarding the secret realm quest yet.
He guessed that this secret realm, like <Island of Light>, was an exploration-based one, requiring players to reach a certain important milestone or obtain a crucial item to unlock the story missions.
The only difference is that he cannot use skills in this secret realm.
Not only could he not use his skills, he also turned into a little child!
If this secret realm is very difficult, he really will be helpless!
"Hurry up and eat, Xiao Fan. Mom made all these dishes early this morning." The speaker was a middle-aged man.
The information Xiao Fan currently has about the secret realms.
The couple in front of him were his parents, and then that was it.
Xiao Fan felt a sense of déjà vu about the scene before him, but he couldn't quite place it.
Before figuring out the situation, Xiao Fan dared not eat the food in front of him.
Besides, what kind of good family would eat such a lavish meal so early in the morning? It's almost like a last meal before death.
He wouldn't dare eat it.
"Xiao Fan, why aren't you eating? Aren't these your favorite foods?" The middle-aged woman asked curiously when she saw Xiao Fan not moving.
"What do we do? Will they mutate if I don't eat? This secret realm didn't give any hints."
The scene before him reminded Xiao Fan of the bizarre and unpredictable novels he had read on Earth.
I'm afraid of breaking the rules when I eat, and I'm also afraid of breaking the rules when I don't eat.
Nobody has it harder than him!
Seeing the middle-aged couple staring intently at him, Xiao Fan felt a chill run down his spine.
"It seems this couple won't let me off the hook unless I give them a reason."
Xiao Fan brainstorms.
Suddenly, he remembered that the couple had called him out, as if they had something to say.
Xiao Fan immediately spoke.
"Dad, Mom, didn't you say you had something to tell me?"
Upon hearing this, the couple in front of them exchanged a glance, their expressions unreadable.
"Let's eat first," the woman said, a slight smirk playing on her lips.
Xiao Fan quickly shook his head.
"You guys go ahead and talk, otherwise I won't be able to eat."
Xiao Fan originally thought that his words would anger the couple and trigger a system rule notification.
The couple paused for a moment, then seemed to sigh and put down their chopsticks.
"Xiao Fan, your mother and I plan to enter the <Cloud Sea>," the middle-aged man said.
"Xiao Fan, Mom hopes you can understand Dad and me. More and more people are responding to the country's call to enter <Cloud Sea>. Although it's dangerous in the game, the attribute points you get can be materialized, and Core Power can be exchanged for Dragon Nation Currency."
"Our family isn't well-off to begin with. If we miss this opportunity, things will only get harder." The woman's face showed a hint of sorrow.
"The game has only been out for six months, and many jobs are already only hiring players who have upgraded their accounts. <Cloud Sea> is the trend now; if you don't get into the game soon, you might not be able to find a job later."
The man looked at Xiao Fan as he spoke.
Although his son is only eight years old, he has been intelligent since he was a child, and he believes that his son can understand what he is saying.
In an instant, Xiao Fan's brain seemed to explode.
"<Cloud Sea>! Game! This is Blue Star!"
Xiao Fan finally remembered.
The couple in front of them were the original owner's parents Xiao Jing and Yu Nianzhu.
Although Xiao Fan had merged with the original owner's memories, the memories were chaotic, and he couldn't remember many things.
Furthermore, after transmigrating to Blue Star, Xiao Fan spent very little time in reality, mostly in the game, where he lived more like himself.
"No wonder the scene in front of me seemed familiar; this was the day my parents entered the game!"
Xiao Fan suddenly remembered that the name of this secret realm seemed to be "Blue Star Game Invasion".
"Have I traveled back to the year of the game invasion?"
Xiao Fan's expression remained unchanged, but his mind was blank; the current situation was very complicated.
He entered the secret realm of the year of the Cloud Sea invasion within the Cloud Sea.
"Xiao Fan, what's wrong?"
Xiao Jing and Yu Nianzhu, seeing that their son remained silent, inquired with concern.
Xiao Fan snapped out of his shock.
In my memory, the original owner's parents entered the game today and never came out alive.
Now, he's back in that day, albeit only in a secret realm. Should he advise the two not to enter the game?
If the original owner's parents hadn't entered the game, they wouldn't have died, and his uncle Xiao Yi wouldn't have had his leg broken by the Chen Family because of him.
None of this will happen!
Only.
Xiao Fan didn't know what the conditions were for clearing this secret realm.
What if he changes the course of the story? Will he never be able to leave this secret realm?
"Xiao Fan, Mom knows it's not good to leave you out alone. But it's even tougher in the game, and I can't bear to see your dad fighting alone. Yesterday I talked to Aunt Liu next door and asked her to take care of you first. Don't worry, Mom and Dad will definitely come back alive for you," Yu Nianzhu comforted softly.
Xiao Fan was taken aback.
This plot is wrong!
In the original owner's memory, his parents entrusted his uncle Xiao Yi to take care of him when they entered the game, so how did it become Aunt Liu from next door!
No! That's definitely wrong!
With his younger brother around, Xiao Yi would never entrust his eight-year-old son to a neighbor for the time being.
This secret realm did not restore the original events.
Xiao Fan thought for a moment, then tentatively asked, "Dad, does Uncle also want to enter the game? If not, I can go to him first."
As far as I can remember, when Xiao Jing and his wife entered the game this time, Xiao Yi and his wife did not enter together.
Xiao Fan clearly saw a hint of surprise flash across the faces of Xiao Jing wife opposite him. Then, Xiao Jing frowned and said...
"Xiao Fan, who is this uncle you're talking about?"
These words left Xiao Fan completely bewildered; it seemed the original owner's father only had one younger brother.
"Of course it's your younger brother, Xiao Yi."
The couple opposite looked terrified.
"Xiao Fan, what nonsense are you talking about? Your father is an only child. When did he ever have a younger brother?"
Xiao Fan was stunned, his scalp tingling.
Since I went up the Snow Mountain, it seems like the whole world has changed.
The level of danger is manageable, but the level of terror is intensifying.
"Xiao Fan, have you met a scammer? Your father has no siblings, and neither does your mother. Don't trust anyone."
Yu Nianzhu was somewhat Fa Chou.
She was already worried about leaving her eight-year-old son alone, and now that she knows there are scammers, she's even more worried.
"Why don't you stay home?" Xiao Jing suggested.
"I'll go into the game first and check it out. You can join later when I'm stronger, then I can keep an eye on you."
Yu Nianzhu looked conflicted.
The danger of the game is self-evident. In just six months, countless people have perished in the "Cloud Sea." She and her husband were both orphans, without any family members to accompany them. She was really worried about her husband going in alone.
After thinking for a moment, Xiao Fan decided to prevent the couple from entering.
Since the storylines for the secret realms are all different now, this little difference won't make a difference.
"Mom and Dad, please don't go into the game yet. Recently, a man claiming to be Dad's brother has been coming to see me and telling me not to tell you about it. I'm scared."
Seeing the panicked look on her eight-year-old son's face.
Xiao Jing was ultimately reluctant to leave his wife and son in the Real World.
"Okay, let's talk about entering the game in a few days. I'll stay with Xiao Fan these next few days and see who's impersonating my brother."
