I made myself the protagonist

A month and a half passed in the blink of an eye, during which Shen Tinglan, Su Li, Hubert, Wei Chongming, Zhao Sicheng and others also cleared the new dungeon respectively.

After returning from the mission that day, Zhao Sicheng invited everyone to have a dinner together.

During Lin Yuanqi's absence, the base was much quieter than usual.

Shen Tinglan noticed that during this period, everyone was depressed. No one was depressed because of this. In order to be ready to participate in the treasure hunt game, everyone trained harder than usual. Especially Ling Yun and Tang Yao, The two of them even went crazy.

For Ling Yun, he knew that Lin Yuanqi chose to sacrifice himself because of trust. Lin Yuanqi believed that he could resurrect him in future treasure hunting games, so he would resist everything at the last moment.

Therefore, Ling Yun did not dare to relax even for a second. After all, the pressure on him this time was much heavier than before. He would not let down Lin Yuanqi's trust, but he needed to make more preparations for this.

Because the world line has been changed, many of the tasks they encounter are now beyond Ling Yun's control. The chance of predicting the plot and avoiding risks based on the author's identity has been greatly reduced.

Not only that, when writing the book, Ling Yun set up 12 treasure hunt games. But now, he is not sure which copy he will encounter next.

In order to ensure that they are as confident as possible, Ling Yun and his companions have been practicing various scenarios and themes during this period of time, and have cleared 29 dungeons in one and a half months.

You should know that the average time it takes to clear a simulated instance is about 8-9 hours. If you encounter a more difficult instance, it will take even longer.

And Tang Yao was not inferior to him in the slightest. In order to ensure her own survivability and not be a hindrance like last time, Tang Yao rejected Ling Yun's kindness and chose to train alone.

At first, she often "died" and was judged to have failed by the system and was forced to end the game; however, she declined the kindness of other companions to help her and insisted on re-challenging alone. She would not change to a new copy until she passed the level.

As time goes by, Tang Yao's number of deaths in missions becomes less and less.

The two of them almost lived on the base, with only a handful of sleeping hours. Even in the middle of the night, the lights in the training room never went out.

Until the day before, Tang Yao fainted in the simulation training due to too much physical load, and was in a coma for two hours before waking up. Finally, Shen Tinglan, who couldn't bear it, took out the dignity of the captain and froze Tang Yao's use of the simulation. She had the authority to train and forcibly ordered her to rest for a day before training again.

Su Li, who originally planned to go to practice, had just finished changing his clothes and was about to enter the house when he saw Tang Yao sitting listlessly in the living room alone in a daze. Although she had been forced to take a vacation by Shen Tinglan, she had no intention of going home.

Su Li stopped and glanced at Shen Tinglan. The latter nodded knowingly and entered the training room first.

"Let's talk?" Su Li sat next to Tang Yao. She did not beat around the bush, but went straight to the topic.

Tang Yao was a little surprised. Although Su Li usually got along well with everyone, due to her personality, she rarely took the initiative to talk to others.

"I'm... not very good at comforting others. So, you can use me as a person to talk to. I won't express any opinions or views on your matters. You say it, and I'll listen." Although Su Li's voice He is light but his eyes are very sincere.

During this period of time, although Ling Yun and others came to comfort her, Tang Yao never vented her emotions to them. But now for some reason, under Su Li's infection, Tang Yao seemed to have a tight knot.

The long string, after reaching its limit, was completely broken at this moment.

Tang Yao told Su Li that she kept Lin Yuanqi's care for her in her heart.

It's not that she doesn't know what kind of feelings Lin Yuanqi has for her. In fact, a week before the last mission started, Lin Yuanqi found her in private and confessed to her.

"However, I rejected him and told him that the person I liked was Ling Yun."

As Tang Yao spoke, she raised her head and looked through the transparent training room glass at Ling Yun, who was having a simulated battle with Shen Tinglan, Ren Yao and others inside: "From the first time we met on the mission, Brother Ling protected me.

It started at that time. I really like Brother Ling."

"Lin Yuanqi said that he had actually known it for a long time. Everyone except Brother Ling himself could probably see this... After being rejected by me, he smiled very relieved. He said that if he dared to confess, then

He was already prepared to be rejected. But after thinking about it, he felt that holding it back and having a secret love was like an innocent boy, not open-minded enough, and inconsistent with his image of a wanderer."

Thinking of the other party's talkative appearance at that time, a rare smile appeared on Tang Yao's haggard face.

Lin Yuanqi told Tang Yao that he had already looked away. He knew that Tang Yao only had Ling Yun in her heart, so he would not embarrass her. From now on, as a comrade, Lin Yuanqi will always support her and accompany her.

Su Li listened and silently handed over a bottle of water.

Tang Yao thanked her softly, took a sip and continued: "I am not as smart and powerful as you, Miss Su. So this year, I have worked hard to make myself stronger, just so that I can fight side by side with everyone and leave."

Space. To me, each of you is my most important friend. Lin Yuanqi... Actually, I owe him a lot."

Tang Yao told Su Li that in a previous mission, Lin Yuanqi discovered Zhu Qingrong pretending to be Yan Ru after being prompted by Ling Yun.

After realizing that the other party had evil intentions, Lin Yuanqi thought of a way to divert Zhu Qingrong's attention, and prepared to escape in two directions with Tang Yao's soldiers. At that time, he had already escaped with Pan Rong on his back, but was accidentally captured by Tang Yao.

Because of this, Lin Yuanqi had to give up his plan to join Ling Yun and chose to fight with Pan Rong.

After that, the four of them would fall into the hands of Zhu Qingrong and be used as sacrifices to the devil.

"I was the one who held the team back. If I hadn't been so useless, everyone wouldn't have been arrested. Lin Yuanqi..." Tang Yao said, lightly covering her face.

When Su Li heard this, he finally understood: No wonder Tang Yao had been so disappointed all this time. It turned out that she was always worried about her performance in the last mission, and she blamed Lin Yuanqi's death on herself.

Just when Su Li was hesitant to comfort him, Tang Yao wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and raised her head again: "So, I must resurrect him and bring him back."

Different from the timid girl when they first met a year ago, Tang Yao is much stronger now than Su Li thought.

The two were chatting, and on the other side, a blue light suddenly lit up in the base.

Zhao Sicheng, Wei Chongming, Hubert and Xiaolong had just completed their mission and were teleported back to the base. Others in the training room also hurried back to the hall after hearing the system notification.

So far, the person who has performed the most tasks in the base is undoubtedly Ren Yao. He has completed fourteen dungeons so far. He is considered a top player in the entire space.

Following closely behind were Hubert who had completed twelve missions, Shen Tinglan and Su Li who had completed eight missions, Ling Yun, Tang Yao, Zhao Sicheng, Wei Chongming and others who had completed seven missions.

"Congratulations to everyone for returning safely." As usual, Shen Tinglan said hello to his returning companions. But before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Wei Chongming and Hubert.

"Brother Shen, Miss Su, guess who we met during the mission this time?"

The expressions of the two looked very surprised, and on the other side, the fast-talking Zhao Sicheng could no longer hold back: "We met a female player who performed well this time. Her name is Lin Qing, she is also from our third district, from c13. Base. Lin Qing said that she knows you."

"Lin Qing? This name sounds familiar. Could it be..." Shen Tinglan frowned and looked at Su Li. The latter also had the same confusion on his face, but more of it was uncertainty.

Seeing Wei Chongming's eyes widening and nodding, he opened his mouth, but before he could speak, the other party beat him to it.

"Yes, Brother Shen! She is the female NPC we protected when we carried out the Book of Curses mission a few months ago! This is the first time I have seen that the people in the dungeon can follow us back to the world and change their appearance. Become a player!"

After hearing what Wei Chongming said, Ling Yun's face outside the crowd suddenly changed.
