Life Dungeon Game

The video begins with He Ao setting up the camera, then moving away and sitting on a stool.

After about several tens of seconds, He Ao's figure flickered, and the entire camera's image began to show obvious blurring. All objects in the room were distorted, turning into distorted blobs of color, making it impossible to see anything clearly.

A few seconds later the screen returned to normal, but He Ao was no longer in the room.

Then He Ao quickly dragged the progress bar, and about sixteen minutes later, the entire picture was violently distorted again. This distortion lasted for about five to six seconds. When the picture returned to normal, He Ao reappeared in the room.

He Ao turned off the video and fell into deep thought.

When he went to the dungeon world, it was obvious that he was a soul traveler. This can be seen from the fact that he could use the soul-bound 'Super Memory', but could not use the body-related 'Qi Induction'. Moreover, the body of each character he played was different.

He installed the camera to confirm what his body would be like in the main world after he traveled through time.

It now appears that during the journey, the body in the main world also disappears, and ordinary electronic devices cannot capture the disappearance process. I wonder if this is a system protection mechanism.

This is good news. He had been worried that when he went to the dungeon world, his soul would leave but his body would remain, and he would be buried as if he were dead, or stabbed to death by his enemies without resistance. Now he no longer had this worry.

Of course, since he will disappear after transmigrating, he will have to start his missions in deserted places. Otherwise, if someone suddenly disappears on the street, it will probably become the headline the next day.

This might be one of the reasons why the system shows him the countdown to the next task, so that he can prepare in advance.

After thinking it through, He Ao formatted the memory card, then copied some large videos from the 'Study Materials' folder on his computer's hard drive to fill the memory card, formatted it again, and repeated this process two or three times before finally removing the memory card.

After the first format, the data on the memory card and mechanical hard drive can be recovered. Therefore, it is necessary to fill all the space with some large files to overwrite the original records, and then format it. In this way, even if the other party recovers the data, they will only get some learning materials.

After everything was finished, it was past eight o'clock. He Ao stood up from his chair and stretched.

He was getting ready to set up his stall for the evening when He Ao's phone rang again.

He Ao frowned, took out his phone, and almost...

He has no friends; he usually only receives calls from loan sharks, salespeople, and scammers.

He looked at the screen; He Ao hadn't saved this phone number, but it looked somewhat familiar.

The call connected, and a familiar female voice came from the other end.

"Hey He, are you free tonight? I heard there's a really delicious snack place near the school, but it stays open quite late. How about I treat you?"

Liu Nan...

He was stunned for a moment.

Why is this girl so persistent?

Doesn't she know that there's an abnormal human being searching for her all over the world?

Yesterday when he went to the police station, he had already told Captain Liu that the young man was planning to hire someone to kidnap Liu Nan, but they didn't tell Liu Nan.

What other arrangements do they have?

However, these matters were not under He Ao's jurisdiction; he was just a student selling cold noodles.

He picked up the phone and directly rejected Liu Nan's invitation.

"I have something to do tonight, sorry."

He also wants to set up a stall to make money.

After thinking for a moment, he still reminded him, "You should be careful about your safety lately, don't wander around, and be careful of kidnapping."

-

"what?"

Liu Nan was stunned for a moment, and then she heard a busy tone on the other end of the phone.

She put down her phone, looking confused, and glanced at the girl beside her. "He hung up..."

Yesterday I treated you to an expensive meal and you didn't come; today I treated you to a cheap meal and you still didn't come.

He cares about you! He must be worried that you're in danger! He likes you!

The girl analyzed firmly.

·····

That's completely unconvincing.

This was the first time Liu Nan had been rejected twice in a row when she asked a guy out to dinner. Playing hard to get isn't done like this!

But the feeling of owing favors to others was a constant source of discomfort for her.

"Let's go, Nannan, let's try that snack shop ourselves," Liu Nan sighed, looking at the girl. "Where is that snack shop?"

"It's over in the industrial area, not really a shop, just a street stall, but I heard the food is really good. It's only available at night. Wait a minute," the girl said, taking out her phone. "I'll turn on the navigation."

He Ao carefully examined the silver test tube in his hand, but after looking at it for a long time, he couldn't find anything special about it, so he had no choice but to put the test tube away.

Actually, he hadn't planned to bring the test tubes with him, but just before leaving, he suddenly remembered how easily the young man had broken through his security door, which had eight anti-theft chains welded on it, so he went back and put the test tubes in his pocket.

Until a stable safe house is available, carrying it with you is the safest option, and it also ensures you can get supplies if you encounter any accidents outside.

It's a little past nine o'clock at night, and there aren't many people around at this time, but there are still a few scattered customers coming in.

He Ao put the test tube in his pocket and just got up to see if any guests were coming when a blurry figure appeared under the dim streetlights in the distance.

The figure seemed somewhat familiar, yet not quite. As he slowly approached, He Ao finally saw his face clearly.

Zhang Anxia, ​​a researcher at the 'Abnormal Human Research Institute'.

Zhang Anxia saw He Ao from afar. He nodded slightly to He Ao, but did not walk towards him. Instead, he turned and walked across the street to a cold noodle stall.

This area is naturally not the only place selling cold noodles, He Ao's is there. There are five or six stalls around, some selling barbecue, some selling oden, but He Ao's stall is just the most popular.

However, the person selling cold noodles across the street had only recently set up a stall. Seeing that He Ao's business was doing well, they thought they could do it too. So they started a price war with He Ao right away, trying to use their price advantage to force He Ao out of business and seize the market.

Both the large and small bowls were sold for one yuan cheaper than He Ao's.

This did affect He Ao's business to some extent, but not significantly, given He Ao's established tastes.

He Ao did not follow suit and lower his prices. He selected better materials, which resulted in higher costs. The price was already very cheap, and there was no need to get caught up in a price war.

At this time, there was almost no one at the stalls across the street. He Ao watched as Zhang Anxia ordered a bowl of cold noodles, then sat down at a table behind a tree, his gaze fixed on the depths of the night.

What mission is he carrying out?

A sudden realization flashed through He Ao's mind.

Since there were no customers, Zhang Anxia's cold noodles were ready quickly.

He Ao watched him pick up a noodle, take a bite, remain silent for two seconds, then quietly get up, cross the street, and walk towards He Ao's stall.

"A bowl of cold noodles, a small bowl, please."

Sweet and sour or spicy?

He Ao looked at him with a smile.

"Sweet and sour, to go."

Zhang Anxia's gaze did not linger on He Ao's figure, but remained fixed on the depths of the night.

He Ao quickly mixed the cold noodles, packed them up, inserted disposable chopsticks, and handed them to him.

"All right."

"Hmm," Zhang Anxia took the cold noodles He Ao had made, hesitated for a moment, and said softly, "Your cold noodles are really delicious."

"Thank you."

The happiest moment for a chef is when diners genuinely praise the deliciousness of their food.

Zhang Anxia waved goodbye to He Ao, then crossed the road and returned to his original spot. However, instead of continuing to sit at the stall across the street, he squatted down by the tree.

While eating the cold noodles made by He Ao, I continued to gaze into the depths of the night.

······

For some reason, He Ao felt that Zhang Anxia had gone a bit too far, because the owner of the cold noodle stall across the street seemed to be looking rather unhappy.

He Ao couldn't stand seeing others looking unhappy, so he shifted his gaze from the boss's face and followed Zhang Anxia's gaze into the depths of the night.

After a while, two hazy figures emerged from the night.

They were two young girls, one tall and one short.

The taller one was about 1.6 meters, close to 1.7 meters, with medium-length hair that just reached her shoulders, the ends of which were slightly curled. She wore a large beige knitted sweater, the long hem of which went past the girl's waist and hips, all the way up to her thighs covered by black stockings.

The girl herself still looked somewhat youthful, but paired with this mature outfit, the combination created a unique charm.

The shorter one, who was about 1.5 to 1.6 meters tall, was wearing a festive red hooded sweatshirt and blue wide-leg jeans, looking lively and clever.

The girl in the red hoodie was holding her phone, looking around, and pouting as she complained, "Why is this place so remote? I wish I hadn't come."

"It's nothing," the tall girl smiled, her eyes darting around before quickly settling on He Ao's stall under the light. She pointed to He Ao's stall, "Nannan, is that it?"

“It seems so,” the girl in the hoodie shook her phone, pointing in He Ao’s direction. “It should be.”

She then excitedly jogged over, "Liu Nan, let's go!"

At this moment, He Ao could also see the two people's faces clearly. After all, his physical fitness had improved, and his eyesight was much better than before.

The tall one is Liu Nan. I don't see the short one much. I think she's in the same class as Liu Nan... her name is... Yuan Nannan.

As the two drew closer, they recognized He Ao, who was setting up a stall under the streetlight.

"He Ao?!" Yuan Nannan was clearly shocked. She quickly ran over, circled He Ao twice, and then looked at Liu Nan, who was slowly walking over, with a surprised expression. "Liu Nan, look, He Ao, it's real, he's alive!"

He Ao: ?

Liu Nan was also somewhat helpless about her friend's actions. She smiled apologetically at He Ao and said softly, "He Ao... are you... doing business here?"

"Hmm," He Ao nodded, seemingly unconcerned about such things. "You're selling cold noodles here? Want a serving?"

"Hey, hey, hey!"

Yuan Nannan circled He Ao's stall in shock. "So that's the cold noodle stall that everyone on the school forum was talking about that was yours?! Are you... experiencing life?"

“To be precise,” Heo shrugged, “it’s for making a living.”
