I'll also work hard to conquer the dungeon today.

Chapter 136, Section 1.8: [Golden Dragon] Long-Term Dungeon

Welcome to the 'Finding My True Self' instance. I'm your good friend, Filu.

[Task 1: Help Issa find his true 'self']

[Task Two: Prevent Issa from having intimate relations with a woman]

[Instance Level: Crown Prince]

[Dungeon Mode: Long-term, can be combined with any other dungeon]

[Now, let's announce the rules of the game.]

[I. This instance has no unique barrier.]

[II. You may not leave Isaac's side for more than 12 hours at a time; if you are more than three meters away, the countdown will be triggered.]

[III. Please actively search for clues that may trigger the plot; the locations are not fixed.]

IV. No time limit.

[5. You cannot die before completing this instance.]

[Summary: ...I'll tell you when I remember.]

"Did you hear that?" Mu Yegui turned to look at Ling Tong beside him and asked.

"What?" Ling Tong paused, puzzled.

“Looks like it’s just me. I just started a dungeon, a long-running mode that can be stacked with any other dungeon, but you have to do this one. It doesn’t feel like a dungeon, more like a quest.” Mu Yegui glanced at the very conspicuous Issa beside him and said, “How strange, a dungeon from the Kingdom of the Unbelievable.”

"Rules that are unreasonable, shouldn't exist, and make no sense in other kingdoms are all rationalized in the Kingdom of the Unbelievable, which is why it's called the Kingdom of the Unbelievable. Because there are no rules, or if there were, they would change. They call it boundless artistic creation, and the extraordinary is truth." Ling Tong explained casually, without asking about the instance that Mu Yegui had just started.

That's why the "Lias's Voyage" instance developed the way it did. If it were Zhu Yan, it would just have been a coincidence that Zhu Yan happened to be there and took over; even without Zhu Yan, it would have been someone else. That's why two crown princes appeared directly, because the Mysterious Kingdom itself possesses all possibilities.

Mu Yegui grabbed Yisa's clothes as he was about to leave, his body slightly shifting but his expression calm, and slowly asked, "Tong, do you plan to find the Fire Crystal Stone or the Reverse Scale first?"

"Fire Crystal Stone, let's put the dragon's whereabouts aside for now." Ling Tong sat down on a bench and spread out the map in her hand, pointing to a certain place. "Ten days from now, a Fire Festival will be held here. At that time, a man and a woman will be chosen as sacrifices and pushed into the volcano. I plan to participate in this event."

"Will you take the place of the male sacrifice?" Mu Yegui asked softly, his clear, silver eyes fixed on Ling Tong.

"That's really my idea. It's the simplest and most convenient method of all." The terrifying black mask concealed Ling Tong's true face and all his emotions at that moment.

Mu Yegui switched the hand that was gripping Issa's clothes and asked, "Shouldn't humans be afraid of being burned by flames?" Lava could probably melt a person's bones, but this person had a nonchalant attitude and didn't think it was anything important.

"Maybe it's because I'm half-human." That's why no matter how hard he tries, he can't compare to his outstanding older brother, and he'll be disliked no matter what he does, since half of his blood isn't human.

"A hybrid is a life born from the union of two different races?" Issa stroked his smooth chin thoughtfully, his golden vertical pupils staring intently at Ling Tong, who was wearing a mask, with an expression of inquiry and curiosity.

"That's about it." Ling Tong didn't want to continue the conversation.

Mu Yegui pulled Issa forward a step and asked, "Does our deal still stand? Even if there have been some slight changes."

Do you mean a copy?

"The mission in this instance is to help Isaac find his true self, which means he has to stay with me until he does. If you don't mind me bringing him along for the trade, we can continue. It's the long-running instance I was talking about, which can be stacked with any other instance."

Issa was slightly taken aback, clearly not expecting this to happen. "I can't remember anything," Issa said slowly, his golden vertical pupils slightly raised.

"If I could, I would also like to refuse, but unfortunately I am forced to accept it unilaterally." Mu Yegui bluntly stated his true thoughts.

Issa: "..."

Ling Tong pondered for a moment and then slowly said, "I can find the fire crystal stone myself. Could you please keep an eye out for clues about the evil dragon? If nothing unexpected happens, I will come back to you soon."

"Where?" Mu Yegui asked, looking at the map.

“Here,” Ling Tong said, pointing to the magnificent castle. “There’s an invitation from a circus here in March. It’s not exactly a grand event, but it might attract dragons. I’ll see you here when I get back.”

Issa bent down and leaned closer. After seeing it, he said with a slightly strange expression, "I feel like I've seen it somewhere before."

Upon hearing what Isa said, Mu Yegui nodded and said, "I understand. See you in March."

After agreeing on the meeting place, Ling Tong took the initiative to say goodbye to the two of them.

Mu Yegui sat alone on the bench, looking at Issa, and asked, "Besides the castle, what else do you remember?"

“A feast…” Issa turned his head to look at the fountain, his golden eyes slightly darkened as if he were completely immersed in it.

"feast?"

"A lavish feast with clinking glasses and endless toasts—that's my last impression," Issa said, rubbing his head in distress.

“I’ve thought of something that I might be able to ask that person for help.” Mu Yegui grabbed Isa’s wrist and forcefully led him to a phone booth, where he dialed a number and called someone.

The call was answered immediately upon hearing a beep.

A slightly flippant, deep, and magnetic voice came through the receiver, "Hmm? Little Ye Gui? What brings you to call me all of a sudden?"

Mu Yegui blinked, puzzled, and asked, "How did you know it was me?" She hadn't even said a word yet, how could this person guess so quickly?

“Because it’s Xiao Ye Gui~” He chuckled softly, leaning against the wall, his azure eyes smiling as he looked at Mu Ye Gui standing in the phone booth not far away, without revealing the real reason.

"What impressions do you have of the banquet?" Mu Yegui asked, thinking that this person should be very familiar with him.

"Item number one, the feast for the lucky ones?" He paused for a moment, then asked.

"Props?" Mu Yegui's tone carried a hint of barely perceptible surprise, clearly indicating that he had not expected this.

"The existence of the Feast is only related to Item Number One, and you need to complete a prerequisite dungeon to truly enter. The dungeon is called 'The Lucky Train,' and it has 12 stations, located in the Mysterious Kingdom and the Fairy Tale Kingdom, with six stations in each kingdom. Regardless of the number of people, you can only enter the next station by completing the previous station's dungeon; it's a group dungeon." After saying that, he added, "If Xiao Ye Gui wants to participate, you can invite me. I also want to ride this incredible and strange train."

“Okay, where shall we meet?” Mu Yegui asked.

A gentle knock sounded on the glass door of the 'DuoDuo' phone booth. Fei Xiu stood outside, waving at Mu Yegui through the glass, and whispered into her phone, "Over here~"

The event format has been changed at the last minute; the Ling Tong special event is still a bit too early.

The next chapter is the real dungeon.

Fish and Issa... a playboy and a harem king, just thinking about it is exciting.
