A little girl at a magic school, she's a goofy troublemaker who can do anything.

This bottle of happiness poison was made from Yuchi Quan's own dark magic, and it is indeed possible that it was absorbed by Li Wenyin because it was his dark magic.

But the bottle also disappeared, which is very strange.

Yu Chi Quan was puzzled. He stroked Li Wenyin's face and then carefully performed a full-body magic power test on Li Wenyin.

There is no problem.

Yu Chi Quan then extended his magical search around Li Wenyin and throughout the entire dormitory building.

There are still no problems.

That's strange. Where did his bottle of happiness poison go?

Furthermore, it's quite strange that these five people haven't come out yet after playing the game...

-

That's very strange.

Baili Yinshan stared intently at the display screen.

Is this device displaying the number of online users broken? Why isn't it decreasing?

It must be broken. It's impossible that no one has logged off for so long. The game has anti-addiction restrictions for minors. No matter how fun or addictive it is, minors should be kicked out by the game system when the time comes.

Bai Liyin pondered and re-adjusted the program that displayed the number of online users, repeatedly verifying the correctness of each step.

It was terrifying. After Baili Yinshan's repeated verification, every procedure was correct and they were all running normally without showing any errors.

That would be very strange.

No way! How could this be? Putting everything else aside, underage students should be logged off by now. How can they still be in the game? How could this be...?

Baili Yinshan, who had been confident and nonchalant, suddenly felt his heart leap into his throat, and a thin layer of sweat crept onto his forehead. He was getting anxious.

No! No! No! They really are inside! The minors are really still in the game! How is this possible? How could this happen?

Where exactly did things go wrong? Which program malfunctioned? Why are none of them offline? Why...?

Baili Yinshan frantically typed on the keyboard, the lit screen reflecting his anxious expression. A breath suddenly caught in his throat, stuck in his chest.

It was as if a sword was hanging high above his head, waiting for him to investigate before it would fall and execute his heart.

Baili Yinshan's eyes were empty.

Oh no, the entire game program has gone wrong at some point.

Once logged in, players couldn't log out, and everyone was repeatedly reloading their saves, reliving the first day of the event over and over again.

Oh no! Oh no! Oh no!

Baili Yinshan tried his best to salvage the situation, but discovered that a certain virus had already taken deep root in the entire program, so deeply ingrained that it was beyond his ability to eradicate in a short period of time.

If the students can't log out of the game, this is going to be disastrous; it will cause a huge riot, and who knows what other problems might arise...

No! He has to notify his superiors! Zhou Mixuan is on the night shift, and Ji Moxuan is still working overtime. Tell them!

But this would let the superiors know that it was a mistake on their part that caused a major disaster...

No way! What time is it to worry about these things? The safety of our students is the most important thing. Baili Yinshan is the head of the student council! He swore an oath to serve the students and to ensure their safety before he joined the student council!

At worst, he'll never be able to step into the VIP lounge again, or even worse, he might be expelled from the student council. But right now, the safety of the students is the most important thing! What does his little problem matter?

Overwhelmed with worry, Baili Yinshan stormed out of the game club.

"Smart." The Sloth Hat chuckled softly, confirming Li Wenyin's guess.

"My God, it really is a cycle..." Li Wenyin exclaimed in shock.

To be more precise, it's loading a save file.

The Sloth Hat's voice is very soft and calm, with a tranquil and far-reaching quality. Every time it speaks with its eyes closed, it sounds like a believer chanting softly.

"I didn't want to put in too much effort; all I did was change the game's exit button to a save/load button."

By setting the game save file at the beginning of each game day, whenever someone wants to quit the game, a new save file is loaded.

She is lazy and dislikes trouble. She tries to do the most things with the least amount of effort, which is a characteristic of the Sloth Hat.

"What about our memories?" Qin Guanyu asked patiently. "Did you erase every single one of our memories?"

The lazy hat said calmly, "No."

As I said before, Lazy Hat Chase Xiao is too lazy to do troublesome things. She is not a master in the field of memory magic, and accurately erasing a certain memory one by one is also an extremely troublesome thing.

All the Sloth Hat did was add a misdirection spell to the save/load button. This misdirection spell, which allows for fixed-point save/load and timed misdirection, is one that the Sloth Hat excels at.

The effect is similar to "hypnosis," which is to mislead people's perception and make them think that they have just logged into the game.

Why would someone who just logged into the game log out immediately? Naturally, they would complete their game day in a straightforward and natural manner.

Even if someone logs into the game and immediately logs out, and the Lazy Hat changes the logout button to a save/load button, that person will be stuck in an endless loop of logging in and out.

The Sloth Hat excels at these kinds of magic: information networks, virtual data, dream worlds, consciousness cognition, and so on.

Human cognition is a wonderful thing.

A real fire could burn a person to death.

There was no actual fire; it was simply a matter of making a person believe they were being burned, which could also cause them to "burn to death." The body's organs and magical powers would work in conjunction with the brain to produce a burning reaction, resulting in pain very similar to being actually burned, leading them step by step towards death.

The Sloth Hat didn't use memory magic, yet it achieved the effect of causing a large number of people to collectively lose their memories.

She didn't actually create a time loop; the world outside the game world continued to flow normally, it was just that everyone in the game world was reloading their save files over and over again.

Breaking free from the misleading magic of the Sloth Hat is both simple and difficult.

If a person is fully aware that they are being burned, and all their bodily senses are telling them that they are being burned, with each reaction feeling very real and the pain clearly felt, and all they see around them are scorching flames, how do they jump out and discover that this "fire" does not exist?

It's very difficult for anyone to do that.

Besides Li Wenyin, who has a keen sense of smell and dares to let her imagination run wild, there is also Qin Guanyu, who is extremely sensitive to people's emotions and expressions.

"Hiss..." Li Wenyin gasped as she sorted out the situation. Such powerful magic.

She looked at the woman in front of her, who was adorned with flowers and had her eyes closed in quiet serenity, with a complicated expression. She did not refute their guess that she was Qingqing; it was probably true.

Knowing that she was Qingqing, Li Wenyin understood a little about the purpose of her trip, and therefore her feelings were very complicated.

"Qingqing, so you want to take revenge on all of us... Do you hate this magic academy?"

"Huh?" the Sloth Hat asked in surprise. "Why would I want revenge on you?"

Li Wenyin hesitated, "I don't want to see this magic academy anymore, and I also find the students living normal school lives an eyesore..."

She really didn't want to guess in this direction, but Qingqing's plan to infiltrate the game world and trap them must have had a reason and purpose.

Qin Guanyu said seriously, "I don't think Qingqing is like that."

The Sloth Hat chuckled as he listened.

Qin Guanyu is still the same. When it comes to NPC Qingqing, before he even investigates her, he completely ignores the rumors and gossip spread about her by other NPCs. Based solely on his own observation and judgment of people, he is certain that NPC Qingqing is not the scourge that those people are talking about.

Even now, given the current situation, he's still the same.

"It's dangerous to trust someone so unconditionally," the Sloth Hat whispered a warning.

"It's not unconditional..." Qin Guanyu tried to explain somewhat hesitantly, "I have my own judgment."

His own judgment? Kind-hearted Qin Guanyu sees everyone in the world as kind.

Lazy Hat turned to Li Wenyin: "Perhaps you should advise your friend not to be so naive."

Li Wenyin, on the other hand, chose to trust Qin Guanyu's judgment.

"Since he said so, it must be it. I trust his judgment!"

The Sloth Hat paused slightly.

Following Qin Guanyu's line of thought, Li Wenyin continued, "That's not retaliating against us students. Qingqing, do you want to be a student and play and attend classes with us?"

After a moment of stunned silence, Lazy Hat gave a faint smile: "It's not that simple." At most, it was just an additional wish of hers.

"What could it be?" Li Wenyin really wanted to know. "I'm so curious, Qingqing, please tell me."

Li Wenyin grabbed Qin Guanyu's shoulder and said, "Qingqing, you can't bear to deceive or hurt him, can you, because he's so innocent? Tell us about it, okay?"

Even the most indifferent, arrogant, and ruthless person would find it hard to resist Li Wenyin's coquettishness!

The Sloth Hat is helpless.

"Making you keep reloading and starting over, keeping you in the game world, is to wait for someone to come."

Li Wenyin immediately asked curiously, "Who?"

The Lazy Hat stood silently, then suddenly turned to the side, raising its head towards the calm, clear sky.

"Finally here."

After leaving the witch's hat party, Lin Feng embarked on her journey back to Yuchi Manor.

She went to the party to find the Black Wizard 001, but he was nowhere to be found. However, she unexpectedly gained a lot.

Lin Feng looked at the potion in her hand.

She didn't entirely believe the Hat of Cowardice, and with a high degree of skepticism, she carefully examined and analyzed the potion's ingredients.

Lin Feng has studied the White Tower data for many years and is quite skilled at controlling the ingredients of various magic potions. The analysis shows that it is indeed a magic potion that can shield others from their perception of them.

Then it's best not to delay any longer. Lin Feng should drink it quickly to avoid Yu Chi Ting discovering anything amiss.

After leaving the villa, at the foot of the mountain, Yu Chi Ting waited for her by leaning against a car.

Yu Chi Ting's expression was somewhat strange: "Why have you been gone for so long? Are you sure the party was all women? Take off your clothes and let me see."

"..." Lin Feng indifferently shifted her gaze. "Confirmed."
