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

Chapter 276 1.20 Ace
"Do you know her?" Daolin looked at Jera and asked softly.

The boy's expression was calm, and his tone was indifferent, making it difficult to discern what he was thinking.

Zyra opened her mouth, but then suddenly closed it. She almost let it slip. This person had a strange magic about him; even though he didn't want to reveal the information at first, he couldn't help but speak up.

Fortunately he held back.

He was quite different from when I met him more than two months ago. Back then, he was exhausted and seemed like he would fall asleep at any moment. But now he was full of energy and completely different from when I first met him.

Why did such a big change occur?
Daolin immediately understood what Jera meant by not saying it, and said knowingly, "It seems we know each other."

Jera: "..." He didn't say anything, so it wasn't against the rules. It was all just Daolin's own guess.

"The High Priest of the Kingdom of the Unbelievable, literally speaking, should be a priest. There are many unique rare books in the Kingdom of the Unbelievable. I just read an interesting little story. There is a god in charge of wine, sacrifices, rituals, and joy named Dionysus. After reading the whole story about him, I can only conclude that he was a 'madman'."

With a half-smile, his icy blue eyes fixed on Jera, Daolin said softly, "Am I right?"

Jera frowned and looked at Dao Lin with dissatisfaction. Wasn't this man forcing him to admit this? Even if he didn't want to admit it, he had to admit that Dao Lin's analysis from beginning to end was flawless.

"You've never even met him," he said ambiguously, neither confirming nor denying, since any statement he made would be considered a violation.

"The charm of words lies in the fact that the first time you see them, a corresponding scene appears in your mind, which is why they are so fascinating and make you want to keep learning about them." Ice-blue eyes gazed quietly at the recliner as she spoke softly.

However, words can sometimes become the most terrifying invisible blade, and it all depends on the mood of the person using them.

The writing in that book may not be elegant, but it was recorded with great care and a desire to analyze.

That's precisely why it feels so real; you can understand what kind of being the story is about just by reading it once.

“Is that so… well…” Zera muttered to herself, looking down.

"Hmm?" Dao Lin blinked, looking slightly puzzled, not having heard what he was saying at all.

"Can I go now?" Zyra asked.

Daolin nodded and said casually, "Yeah, just don't get caught."

He sat back down in the recliner and began to examine the parchment carefully with both hands.

Why take it so seriously when no information has been revealed?

Zyra ran her fingers through her long hair, her deep blue eyes fixed on her toes, before pulling up her hood to cover herself.

Suddenly remembering something, he stopped and turned back to look at Dao Lin's retreating figure, asking, "Before you leave, I'd like to ask you a question."

"Go ahead." He didn't look up or answer, as if it were a perfunctory, casual reply.

"Will you participate in the Crown Prince instance again?" Zyra asked.

"I won't leave this place again until the second playthrough, so please bring it to me whenever it happens." This means he won't go out or participate in dungeons again until the second playthrough arrives.

"Won't he be out of touch with the world?" I couldn't understand what he was up to at all.

"This is the only truly safe place..." Dao Lin muttered to himself. Only here could he avoid being found by Lazy, and that was precisely why he absolutely could not step outside. Even if information was severely restricted, he couldn't leave; otherwise, what would happen next was something he absolutely did not want to see.

"You and the lord..." Zyra frowned and asked.

"It's a relationship between prey and hunter, but who is the hunter is not necessarily the case." If he can successfully transition to the second playthrough here, then Sloth will completely become his prey; otherwise, it will be the other way around.

This is a game of hide-and-seek, and he has to hide well.

“But is it alright for me to come and go so frequently? I’m the lord’s subordinate. If I tell him, you’ll be exposed immediately,” Zyra sighed.

“Even if you tell him, he can’t come in person. As long as it’s not him, it doesn’t matter,” Dao Lin said with a light laugh.

Zyra nodded knowingly. After all, the Sloth Lord was very lazy, and he was currently busy making new dolls, so he didn't have time to come out. Otherwise, he wouldn't have had the chance to appear here.

“Even if he’s a mentally unstable madman, he became the number one person below the Seven, and he suppressed everyone as soon as he appeared.” Zyra said inexplicably, then opened the wooden door and left.

As the wooden door closed, Dao Lin looked up and gazed at the wind and snow outside the glass.

The fierce and unrestrained wind swept the world into a blanket of white, leaving no secrets to be found.

He put down the book, picked up one of the letters, and read it again.

"Shui Qi..." he murmured.

If we hadn't met under those circumstances, we might have become very good friends, but unfortunately, taking the initiative here only makes us enemies. That being said, cooperation isn't entirely impossible; it just depends on whether that person is willing to put aside their differences.

I reached out and gently touched my chest, feeling my heart beating.

At that time, Shui Qi did indeed pierce his heart; even though he was using a fake body, he was still the one truly in control. He felt everything the fake body experienced.

It was actually very risky at the time, because it was his first time trying to imagine the function of a Rubik's Cube, and he didn't know if he would succeed, but he still chose to take the risk.

He had a gamble in mind, even though he had always been quite lucky.

His icy blue eyes were fixed on the contents of the envelope, a complex emotion flashing in them.

Finally, he sighed softly and said, "Shui Qi, please don't die. I hope to see you again in the second playthrough, but unfortunately, you won't be able to see me again before the second playthrough begins."

There are very few equally matched opponents, and Shui Qi is one of the few.

As for Mu Yegui and Ling Tong, he never intended to be enemies with them, so they couldn't be considered opponents.

"Dionysus... Sloth, what exactly are you trying to do? Why are you bringing out this trump card so soon, one that could easily spiral out of control or even be completely out of your grasp? Aren't you being a little too hasty?"

In any case, Dionysus's target could not possibly be him.

He'll just accept being locked up and stay here until everything settles down.

Therefore, Dolin will not appear again for a while, and his role will likely be taken over by the twins or Bertias.
