If you don't act quickly, and they come knocking on your door, you'll be in big trouble.

Perhaps she's the only one who knows the truth, "Just this once, be selfish..."

At this moment, Meng Yi had just finished exploring the villa's lobby and secretly asked a few female players before learning that Miss Ghost was in the upper area.

When she tried to go up, she was immediately stopped by several skeleton guards.

Several guards, their eyes gleaming green—like two eerie green lanterns even in broad daylight—stared intently at the newcomer, making a sound like they were chewing bones, "Anyone who crosses the line dies!"

Meng Yi: "..."

This chaotic scene unfolded in the hall, where two maids witnessed it and kindly stepped forward to offer advice.

Back at her post, Meng Yi smiled faintly and thanked them. She wasn't in a hurry; there was still time, and making a scene would only alert them.

She was a steady, calm, rational, and reasonable person. She was also good at acting, so it wouldn't be difficult for her to pretend to have a professional job at the manor.

You can't exactly say that Miss Ghost never comes downstairs all day, can you?

There's such a luxurious dining table in the middle of the living room; it must be for the young lady's exclusive use. Otherwise, why would so many people be needed to manage it?

Looking at others, Meng Yi glanced down at her own simple work dress stained with blood, her eyes filled with confusion.

"This secret realm seems a bit different from those I've encountered before; the players' work clothes are all so clean and tidy."

She was muttering to herself when she vaguely sensed a change in her surroundings, and her expression suddenly froze...

Meng Yi's expression froze on her face. Before she could react, her vision was suddenly enveloped by a white light.

Immediately afterwards, everyone, including her, who was in the Manor Secret Realm appeared in a void Starfield Space in the blink of an eye.

Everyone seemed to be standing in a vast sea of stars, and when they met, they all wore blank expressions.

"What happened? We were just playing games together in the dorm, how did we suddenly end up in a place like this?"

"Hehe, making a fuss over nothing. In this magical world, nothing is impossible." A refined man pushed up his glasses, his delicate face exuding a philosophical air.

Inside the starry space, several young people started chatting.

Even Shu Momo, Zhao Lei, Ling Yue, Ling Lexuan, and others were all in this space.

Here, the area where you can move around is about the size of a school, and the distance between people is so short that almost everyone can see each other.

Ling Mengxue and the others were naturally teleported here as well.

"Is it finally over?"

Looking around at the small world that resembled Otherworldly Dream Space, she felt a strange bitterness in her heart.

Just then, a mysterious voice resounded in everyone's minds.

"Congratulations on successfully completing the mission! All your excellent performance during the mission will be counted towards your performance score, which will help you obtain a higher rating and rewards."

"The Survival Challenge is about to end, and player rankings are being tallied. We wish you all the best in your future adventures across various fantasy dimensions, hoping you will continue to overcome all obstacles and achieve unparalleled success!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire venue erupted in cheers.

After several days apart, the companions met again, even among strangers. They were all moved to tears, sobbing uncontrollably as if they were long-lost relatives embracing each other.

But what followed was a silent farewell.

The Hundred-Person Secret Realm raid has only been running for a few days, and now only about half the original number of players remain. It's incredibly tragic.

Most people had their heads down, their mood strangely depressed.

In the future?

Being chosen by a fairyland-like secret realm is one thing, but to be chosen by a hellish, terrifying manor like this, survival is a question entirely, let alone being invincible.

Those are the domain of the big shots; what does that have to do with them?

"Waaaaah~ I survived! I can't believe it. I've had enough of squatting in a corner every day picking up other people's leftovers!"

"What's so special about that? Just because I'm better looking than some celebrity, I've got my kidneys ripped off!"

"Pfft! Sorry, I'm a police officer, I've received professional training, and I don't usually laugh, but... sorry... haha..."

"..."

Ling Mengxue didn't pay attention to any of that. Once the atmosphere quieted down a bit, she started looking around, trying to find out if she could locate that High Tier Destiny Engraver.

If the other party really did specifically seek them out from the outside world, wouldn't they be furious?

During this time, she also saw a few "acquaintances," but she did not greet them. She simply turned her back silently. However, her peerless beauty and mysterious, dazzling silver hair still attracted many admiring glances from those around her.

This limited Spatial Perception is rather troublesome.

"Elder sister?"

Just then, a soft exclamation came from behind.

"Are you looking for someone?" Ling Mengxue turned around curiously, and just then saw Meng Xi looking astonished, talking to a beautiful girl with heterochromatic eyes and a cool demeanor.

Meng Xi looked at the newcomer with a complicated expression. Then, she gently placed her hands on the girl's shoulders, her expression suddenly turning serious as she frowned and asked, "Xiaoyi, why are you here too? Where are Mom and Dad? Do they know?"

"Sister, I'm still in college and I don't go home much. How could Mom and Dad possibly know? But you were actually chosen by the secret realm??" Meng Yi looked into her eyes, equally serious.

Meng Xi ignored her words, her face showing unease. She quickly took her hand and began to examine her from head to toe. "Let me take a good look, is there any injury?"

"..."

Meng Yi didn't speak, but sighed softly, put her arm around her older sister's shoulder, and gently comforted her, "I'm fine. I'm so glad to see you're still alive... Huh??"

"Xiao Yi, what's wrong?" Meng Xi asked, looking puzzled.

"Little princess??"

"What princess?"

"Sister, do you know each other?"

"Know what?"

Meng Yi symbolically rested on Meng Xi's shoulder, peeking out with her head and her eyes gleaming slightly.

The next moment, she suddenly turned to face Ling Mengxue. Considering her sister was still present, she became much more reserved and extended her hand with a smile, "Hello, little sister, may we get to know each other?"

"...Uh...um." Ling Mengxue stiffly stretched out her hand, her lips twitching almost imperceptibly.

Do you think I didn't hear what you just said?

Perhaps realizing that her sudden interruption had startled Ling Mengxue, Meng Yi looked thoughtful, coughed awkwardly, and then took out a student business card from her pocket. With a warm smile, she said, "It's like this, I'm actually a student at Star Prefecture Media University. I'm very good at acting, and I feel quite compatible with you, so I'd like to invite you to join our club."

"..."

She is indeed a very good actress.

Ling Mengxue was speechless. She was rather aloof and not good with words, but asked with a puzzled look, "People from outside the school are also allowed?"

"It's alright, I'm the vice principal... uh... student council president, I do have a little bit of power." Meng Yi said calmly, "Please rest assured, we never make fun of anyone."

"Hey sister, has anyone ever told you that you're cute when you're serious?" Ling Mengxue wiped her sweat, wanting to remain silent, and quickly gave Meng Xi a pleading look.

Meng Xi was also helpless. She couldn't let her younger sister bother Brother Ling anymore, so she immediately pulled her over and said in a warning tone, "Don't bother Mengxue. We just finished the dungeon and need to rest."

"I'm sorry, but I sincerely want to invite Mengxue to join us." Meng Yi's expression remained unchanged as she tilted her head and stared straight at Ling Mengxue, making the latter's scalp tingle!

"Could you please stop staring at me like that?" Ling Mengxue thought to herself, speechless.

However, Meng Yi was thinking that she seemed very friendly, which should be able to win over the little princess, right?

As for the original mission, she had completely forgotten about it.

Compared to the princess of this camp, a mere Ghost King doesn't warrant such a great deal of trouble from her.

"Mengxue??" Suddenly, another surprised voice rang out, and everyone turned to look at her. Ling Mengxue was speechless.

"Mo Mo?"

Is Chapter 132 really that mind-bending?

Immediately afterward, Zhao Lei and his group also found Ling Mengxue and waved excitedly.

Before we could even chat, the dungeon run was over, and the quest notification said we could exit.

As beams of light rained down, the players couldn't wait and started activating their teleportation abilities one after another.

"Ding! Rewards have been automatically sent to the dedicated quest cabinet: Vampire's Tooth x2, Succubus's Blood Drops x10, Bloodstained Katana (Fine) x1, Bloodsaw Maniac's Chainsaw (Old) x1, Soul Coins x1500, Medical Bandages (Special) x10, Holy Water (Special) x1, Cursed Doll (Evil) x1."

A notification sound came from her ear, but Ling Mengxue didn't pay much attention to it. They were just some small items she had obtained from playing games, and the items in the Fate Mall were all of a much higher level.

Basically, stuff everything, useful or useless, into the 'Other-Dimensional Space' mission backpack.

"Mengxue, could I have your contact information?"

Meng Xi Ling Mengxue casually open the exit interface, Mengxi couldn't help but feel anxious.

Most people would probably feel regretful to miss out on a companion with whom they once shared life and death.

The feeling was so pure that even Yue Xinrou wanted to get their contact information so she could thank them properly afterward. However, she guessed they wouldn't give it to her, so she didn't want to humiliate herself further.

She was already very happy to have survived.

Of all the hidden realms out there, they had to choose the horror world. I just hope I won't be so unlucky in the future.

Zhao Lei didn't feel anything special, just a little wistful. He had gained quite a lot from going through such a hellish trial, and he even learned Brother Feng's little secret. Hehe~ That felt pretty good.

The only thing to worry about is that after skipping so many classes, I wonder if the homeroom teacher is furious.

His parents are often away on business trips, sometimes not returning home for more than a month at a time. If the teacher calls, he'll probably get a scolding.

But why think so much?

Why not just explain it?

"Little sister, think it over again. 'Star Prefecture Media University' welcomes you." Meng Yi politely handed over the business card, smiled gently, and her red and blue eyes were as clear as stars at that moment.

Seeing her sincere expression, Ling Mengxue was somewhat lost in thought. After hesitating for a moment, she still accepted it with both hands.

From the very first glance, she realized that the girl in front of her was the High Tier Astral Mark Executor. Since the girl didn't seem to have any hostility, she decided to go with the flow.

The player rankings were out, but Ling Mengxue didn't study them much. She smiled slightly at Meng Xi and said, "No need. We'll see each other again if we have the chance later. Let's forget about this bad memory."

After saying that, Ling Mengxue didn't give them a chance to react. She clicked the teleportation button and disappeared without a trace.

She hadn't forgotten that Shu Momo was still there; if these people continued to interrogate her, who knows what might happen next.

Zhao Lei knew she had taken a long leave of absence, but he didn't feel much about it. He put the reward into the task toolbar and started working on it himself...

Soon after, inside a small building on Ping'an Street, the scene before my eyes gradually became clear.

Ling Mengxue felt a sudden Zero Gravity, and then her feet were already on the floor of her Potion House room.

Looking around at her surroundings, she breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to herself, "Finally, it's all over. Just walking around this manor almost exhausted me."

She didn't expect to be teleported back to her original starting point. This is probably a feature of the dungeon, and in any case, this rule is very user-friendly.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, she took off her canvas shoes, lazily turned over, and then lay down on the bed like a dead fish, burying her head deeply in the pillow.

Soft and fragrant, with a subtle osmanthus scent, it's simply wonderful!

"Middle Tier magic, Middle Tier Star Engraving, and that Tier-Five Gene Lock I don't even know what it is, my strength should be enough, right? Sigh."

Her long hair fell over her shoulders, unkempt and somewhat messy.

But none of that matters anymore; at least for now, she is gentle, happy, and tender.

Just as she was enjoying this rare moment of leisure, she suddenly heard a noise coming from downstairs, and her head immediately started to ache again.

"I almost forgot, there's a kid working at the shop... I wonder if anything went wrong while I was away."

Ling Mengxue sighed, tidied herself up, and sat up in bed.

If she goes alone, she'll need to leave some protective magical items behind, otherwise, what would happen if the little girl got bullied?

She opened the drawer of her desk and casually took out a blue handkerchief, skillfully tying it into a bow. Her silver hair trailed behind her, making her appear even more innocent and beautiful.
