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

Chapter 85, page 1.7, section 2: Lias's Voyage
Seemingly sensing a strong gaze, Dao Lin slightly opened his hazy, icy blue eyes, and saw Mu Ye Gui wearing a beach hat and a light pink dress.

Dao Lin was suddenly and unexpectedly startled awake. He seemed to see Mu Yin wearing a pink dress, a sight that was rather stimulating.

"This is absolutely nightmarish... I'm afraid I'm going crazy..." Dao Lin covered his face and muttered.

the other side.

Mu Yin was grinning as he said to Mu Yegui, "I think Daolin mistook you for me, and now he's questioning his existence." He sounded quite proud of himself.

"I need to go to the bottom of the boat." Mu Yegui said expressionlessly, showing no intention of continuing Mu Yin's sentence.

The melodious and cheerful sound of the treble filled my ears, praising the sea, the sky, and the brave sailors.

A crowd gradually gathered, watching the wonderful performance.

"I hate crowds no matter what," Mu Yin said irritably. The more people there were, the more annoyed he became and the more he wanted to kill.

It's said to be a cruise ship departing from the port of the Kingdom of Truth, but most of the passengers are from the Kingdom of Fairy Tales. You can actually tell which country the NPCs are from by looking at their clothing and behavior.

The costumes in the fairy tale kingdom are intricate and gorgeous, and everyone pays great attention to etiquette, fearing the slightest impolite behavior.

The inhabitants of the Kingdom of Truth prefer trench coats or clothes with plaid patterns because they feel that this makes them look smart, and they are extremely confident and good at communicating and showing off their intelligence.

The residents of the entertainment kingdom are fashionable and follow the latest trends, with everyone at the forefront of fashion, showcasing their unique charm.

The inhabitants of the Food Kingdom always wear clothing adorned with white lace or food patterns, fully embodying their reverence for food.

The inhabitants of the Mysterious Kingdom favor clothing such as cloaks, and they are among the most taciturn in any crowd.

The inhabitants of the Kingdom of Sin...

They are not very sociable, prefer to be alone, and have a rather bad temper. They like to wear sharp accessories, which can be used as weapons in critical moments.

Mu Yegui avoided the crowd and walked down the stairs. The light grew dimmer, and the next second after stepping down the stairs, her bare feet touched the wet floor.

She paused slightly, then crouched down and touched the damp ground with her fingers. The sticky, fishy smell seemed to be blood...

Just as Mu Yegui noticed the bloodstains on the ground, a cold blade slashed towards her.

However, accompanied by screams, the man who had tried to ambush Mu Yegui with a knife fell to the ground, blood spilling from his chest.

"Since you chose to follow me, why not stay silent to the end? Dao Lin." Mu Ye Gui stood up, turned her head and saw Dao Lin. Her soft, childlike voice was calm and devoid of any extra emotion, even though she had just been attacked.

"I'm a little curious." Dao Lin pointed to Jin Yin, who was sleeping soundly on his back, his icy blue eyes filled with a hint of amusement.

"Ah." Mu Yegui admitted that she had forgotten about the gold and silver. After all, the gold and silver were so secure that they wouldn't fall off no matter how she moved, so she never made a conscious effort to check if they were there.

However, seeing how soundly Jin Yin is sleeping, let's not move it for now.

“Not a robber.” Dao Lin squatted down and rummaged through the clothes of the man who had tried to ambush Mu Yegui but was killed by him, and found four silver coins in his pocket.

The four silver coins were badly worn, almost completely bare, with only three still faintly discernible, and the other extremely smooth. Dao Lin held the four coins in his palm, rubbing them one by one with his fingertips, hoping to find some clues.

“Since it’s at sea, they’re definitely not robbers, but… pirates.” Mu Yegui lifted the shirt covering the man’s stomach, revealing eight black numbers that looked like codes: 26863810.

"It seems a few enemies have already infiltrated, starting from the port." It's only been a little over an hour since we set sail, so it can only be said that the pirates had planned this all along.

“According to the information I bought, the pirates should attack in three days, which means…” Dao Lin frowned and said.

"Failure in the dungeon increases the difficulty. The Crown Prince being +5 means that he has failed to conquer the dungeon five times, increasing the difficulty by five levels. In this case, it's impossible for the story to continue along the original trajectory; unexpected things are to be expected." In other words, it would be a real disaster if the story actually unfolded as planned.

Dao Lin glanced at Mu Yegui with surprise, his icy blue eyes filled with uncertainty.

“I’m not the kind of person who doesn’t like to use his brain.” Mu Yegui stepped over the man’s corpse, took a few steps forward, and reached out to touch the water pipe.

It looks like this has been brought forward as well.

Mu Yegui kept his thoughts to himself and didn't say anything.

The plot synopsis is very clear, even outlining the entire game flow. This confirms that the four storylines—pirate hijacking, storm, underwater survival, and island survival—are mandatory. However, the three missions are strange; they seem very simple and don't seem like the typical tasks for a crown prince's dungeon.

In Mu Yegui's eyes, these three tasks were indeed very simple, but others might not see them that way.

"You're on the Crown Prince line, right?" Dao Lin rubbed his sore eyes, his tone slightly tired but extremely certain.

“You are also on the Crown Prince route.” Mu Yegui said with certainty. If Dao Lin hadn’t taken the Crown Prince route, he wouldn’t have used the words ‘Crown Prince route,’ because the ‘Crown Prince route’ was created to distinguish it from the ‘ordinary route.’

This means that within an hour of boarding the ship, Daolin deduced, based on the different behaviors of other players, that he might be in a higher-level 'Crown Prince' line.

After all, with Dao Lin's exceptionally intelligent mind, it was entirely possible; he had thoroughly analyzed Mu Yin in this very way before.

"Have you been discovered?" Dao Lin smiled helplessly. Although he hadn't really hidden it, there was a hint of testing in that lack of concealment.

Mu Yegui is not Mu Yin. The reason he could figure out Mu Yin was because Mu Yin was too lazy to hide, but Mu Yegui is different. From the moment she boarded the ship, she didn't do anything that would give her away. So Dao Lin had no choice but to use himself to test Mu Yegui. Otherwise, given Mu Yegui's vigilance, he would never have been able to guess her identity unless she chose to expose herself.

“There are at least five people on the Crown Prince’s side; that’s the baseline.” Mu Yegui didn’t mind telling Dao Lin some secret information because Mu Yin trusted Dao Lin, and Dao Lin was much more trustworthy than Shu Ming.

It's probably a feeling. Dao Lin gives 100% trust to his companions. You don't have to worry about being betrayed by him one day. At most, he will be very straightforward in doubting you and seeking a real answer.

And Shu Ming...

He will absolutely choose to kill you the moment he suspects you and receives the information.

That's the difference.

Shu Ming is a shrewd and calculating old fox, while Dao Lin is simply protecting himself.

Dao Lin and Ling Tong have two extreme personalities.
