Quick Transmigration: Hosts, We're Only Responsible for Counterattacking

Chapter 159 The World Has Mermaid Language (3)

The man called Ah Qian felt a little embarrassed, but he knew that Ai Wan was right, so he had no choice but to cheer up and continue forward.

As she spoke, her gaze gradually shifted to the two people directly in front of them. Although she didn't want to admit it, if things continued to develop this way, those two might just stay far ahead.

Her eyes gradually deepened; this was her last chance, and no one could take it away from her.

Just then, a white thing that looked like a glutinous rice ball ran towards them.

When he reached them, he slowly stopped and walked forward.

Shen Yun looked at the little guy acting cute at her feet, her eyes narrowed slightly. She didn't remember that the aura of the merman was so kind that it could attract animals. Besides, why did this look so familiar?

With extreme disdain, she pinched the white ball's tail, and the little ball struggled and thrashed in the air, looking quite adorable.

The others traveling with him couldn't help but show their delight.

"Aww!" [Host.]

Shen Yun: Did I hear that right?

"Awooo!" [Host, you heard right, something unexpected happened.]

2345 almost wanted to cry. It had just accidentally pressed a button in the system store and ended up here.

Not only that, but the host's points seemed to be completely depleted. It subconsciously shivered. If the host knew, it probably wouldn't skin it, pull out its tendons, and stew it into soup.

Seeing its pitiful state, Shen Yun lost her desire to mock it. She put the white ball into the pocket on her chest and continued forward.

Aya, standing to the side, almost cried out in admiration. What an adorable mouse! She wanted one too.

“It was born in this mountain, it’s not right for you to take it away!” Ai Wan was a little annoyed. Although she didn’t like these kinds of small animals either, she was the prettiest among this group of people. How could this rat have such poor taste, choosing a man with a scar on his face?

Also, who knows if this place is a test set up by Yan Fa to select apprentices?

It has to be said, she really overthinks things.

If one had to describe Shen Yun's current mood in one word, it would be schadenfreude. Although she didn't know what Gouza had done, at least it wasn't her who had caused trouble.

Knowing it had caused trouble, 2345 stayed quietly in the pocket, only its fluffy little head peeking out.

Seeing this, Shen Yun assumed it was because it was afraid of the outside world.

I couldn't help but feel a little more sympathy.

This is such a beautiful misunderstanding.

"Oh. You mean this?" Shen Yun rubbed the dog's head. "This is my little pet. It just went in to play around a bit because it looked fun here."

2345 endured the harassment above his head, daring not to speak out against it.

"Really? It's so cute." Ai Wan looked a little doubtful, but didn't ask directly. "By the way, what's its name?"

Aya looked puzzled. When did Bubble get a pet?

"Its name... is... Gouza." Shen Yun nodded solemnly.

"Oh!" [No, I have my own name.]

"Giving you a dog's name and you think you're doing me a disservice? That 98K?" Shen Yun resisted the urge to roll his eyes, thinking that the system was really too picky. Forty bullets, you deserve it, okay?

2345 rolled its eyes so much. It looks so cute, shouldn't it have a name that matches its cuteness?
Ai Wan didn't react for a moment. "Dog what?" Isn't this a rat? How is it related to a dog?

Shen Yun rephrased it, "It doesn't matter what the name is, as long as it likes it." After saying that, she stared intently at the white ball in her pocket.

Waaaaah, someone's bullying the system.

2345 had no choice but to emerge, revealing a joyful expression, though it wasn't clearly visible under the cover of its downy fur.

When the group had climbed halfway up the mountain, some of them wanted to give up.

Shen Yun said quietly, "If you leave now, you'll have to go back the way you came."

Several people who were already wavering immediately buried their thoughts again, as if climbing down now would be too tiring.

When everyone reached the top of the mountain, a man dressed in a pure white robe with blue trim looked over in surprise, muttering, "Why are there so many people coming up this time?"

He walked over, looked at the people who had come up, and said, "It is truly remarkable that you were able to climb up from the foot of the mountain on your own, but this is only the first test."

"If you want to continue, you'll have to use the ropes over there to get down the mountain. Of course, if you give up now, we'll have someone to take you down."

Everyone's gaze turned to the rope, and after a few moments, many people turned pale. If they fell, wouldn't they be left without even seeing their remains?

Ai Wan pulled Shao Qian forward and said gently, "Can we start with the two of us?"

The man glanced at her in surprise, seemingly not expecting a woman to be the first to make the suggestion, and his eyes couldn't help but show appreciation. "Okay."

Shen Yun stared at the rope, remaining silent for a long time. Lingzhi thought she was scared, so she forced a smile and comforted her, "Bubble, I will protect you."

The rope clung tightly to the cliff; descending little by little would be no faster than climbing.

Ai Wan and Shao Qian, already dressed in protective gear, slowly descended.

Seeing how dangerous the terrain was, the group hesitated to retreat. The man noticed their hesitation and beckoned for someone to take them down.

There is a channel at the top of the mountain that leads directly down.

"what about you?"

Shen Yun pursed her lips and asked, "I want to know who decided on this assessment method."

Does your brain have bubbles?
The man paused, seemingly speechless, since as long as this method existed, the mountaintop would need to be guarded year-round.

“It is our master.”

Shen Yun remembered this person very well.

She took Aya's hand, then walked to the rope, letting Aya hug her tightly. After a few leaps, she landed in front of a protruding rock, shrouded in mist, its bottom unseen.

Aya screamed silently, and after a moment, she said in a trembling voice, "Bubble, aren't we going down with them?"

She watched as Ai Wan and Shao Qian's figures grew smaller and smaller in her eyes until they disappeared.

"No need, they're too slow."

Clutching a specially made rope tightly in their hands, which was attached to a rope, they braced their toes on the rocks of the cliff, leaped high into the air, landed in mid-air, and then plummeted downwards.

2345's two little paws gripped the fabric of the pocket tightly, "Awwwww..." [Host, help!]

However, all that awaited it was the howling wind.

At this moment, Ai Wan and Shao Qian were carefully lowering themselves down the rope when they noticed something seem to have slid past them.
