One person: plays Wendy, the most carefree director of Nadu.

[Ding! Host detected replicating a famous scene of Venti (Barbatos), role-playing progress +1]

Current progress: 11/100

Sure enough, we've made some progress in the role-playing.

Su Mu picked at his ear and chuckled.

"Well, don't be too angry. I'm really doing this for your own good, you know?"

"If it doesn't work out, I'll just treat next time we drink."

Are you treating?

You've invited guests again?

It would have been better if Su Mu hadn't mentioned it; once he did, Liu Yanyan was completely blushing.

"You have the nerve to say you're treating?"

"Last time at the bar, you said you were treating, and you even went to the counter. I thought you were going to pay the bill!"

"And the result?"

"You fucking went over and told that I'd pay for the drinks!"

"Are you even human?!"

Seeing Liu Yanyan's expression, as if she wanted to jump up and bite him, Su Mu narrowed his eyes, stuck out his tongue, scratched his head, and smiled.

"Hehe~"

"Hey, what does that mean?! Cough cough cough!"

Liu Yanyan coughed violently in anger, but couldn't catch her breath, and her eyes rolled back as she fainted.

[Ding! Host detected replicating a famous scene of Venti (Barbatos), role-playing progress +1]

Current progress: 12/100

The next ability will be unlocked when you reach a playthrough progress level of 15.

Hearing the system notification, Su Mu turned to look at the others.

"Um... would you believe me if I said I didn't do it on purpose?"

Zhang Chulan stared intently at Su Mu.

Do you think I believe that?

I don't believe you for a second!

But why do I feel so much better after seeing that Su Mu has messed with more than just me?

Feng Baobao picked up a stick from somewhere, squatted down next to Liu Yanyan, and poked her face with the stick.

"Hmm, sleeping soundly, but this is an interrogation room, no naps allowed."

Xu San slapped himself in the face, speechless. "Having a 'Sleeping Dragon' like Bao Bao was already a headache enough, and now we have another 'Phoenix Chick'..."

"Hahaha!"

Xu Si laughed heartily.

"Isn't this great?"

"Alright, have someone clean up this mess. I'll go find someone to investigate this Zhang Xilin."

Seeing that the interrogation was over, and the next step was for Xu Si and the others to recruit Zhang Chulan into the All-Knowing Group, Su Mu felt that he had no room or need to get involved, so he returned to his dormitory alone.

Lying in his dormitory, Su Mu began to think about his next steps.

Currently, there are only two ways for me to make progress in my role-playing.

First, they actively recreated famous scenes.

Secondly, they slack off and don't do anything productive.

However, to slack off or not do anything productive, you need to have something productive to do or a task to trigger the system's judgment.

In the later plot, the most recent and important events were helping Zhang Chulan with special training before the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony, and picking Zhang Chulan up from the Tianxia Society after his falling out with Feng Baobao.

These two things will take some time to happen, so we can put them on hold for now.

The current situation is that tonight, Zhang Chulan will be kidnapped from Nanbukai dormitory by the Tianxia Hui and taken to the back mountain, where he will fight Zhang Lingyu.

Zhang Lingyu is the last disciple of the Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain and the 66th generation successor of the Celestial Master's Mansion.

He had mastered the Golden Light Mantra to perfection; the golden light was so real that it could be used for both offense and defense.

There's also the Yin Wu Lei technique, which allows you to engage enemies from a distance.

It can be said that his strength surpasses that of the younger generation.

If he weren't still young and his cultivation wasn't too profound, he would probably be a well-known figure in the world of supernatural beings.

With an opponent like that, let alone Zhang Chulan, even Su Mu in his current state wouldn't be confident of victory.

Su Mu thought and thought, but he still couldn't figure out how to replicate Wendy's famous scene in tonight's battle.

However, he still wanted to get involved.

It's not about gaining progress in the role-playing process, but about testing our abilities.

Although Zhang Lingyu showed no mercy to Zhang Chulan in the original story, he wouldn't really go all out as long as you didn't touch his sore spot.

Since acquiring the system, I haven't had a proper fight with anyone. This is a good opportunity to see just how strong I really am.

Thinking of this, Su Mu put on his blindfold.

Go to sleep, otherwise I won't have the energy to fight them at night.

……

Soon, it was evening.

Su Mu leisurely arrived at the back mountain of Nanbukai with his folding bow.

Hmm... a folding bow still doesn't suit my style.

I'll just make do with it for now.

Before the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony, I still need to ask the company's blacksmith to help me order a "Sky Wing".

Skywing is a bow in Genshin Impact.

It looks like a harp from the outside.

It perfectly suits Wendy's identity as a bard.

Without even Wendy's signature weapon—no, her eating utensils—how can she act out her role and get into character?

As Su Mu pondered this, he climbed up the mountain.

After taking only a few steps, they saw a golden aura soar into the sky.

boom!

Oh, they've already started fighting?

Now it will be much easier to find Zhang Chulan and the others.

Su Mu smiled slightly, stepping on the wind elemental force that had transformed into rollers, and quickly headed up the mountain.

When he found Zhang Chulan, he happened to be struggling to get up after Zhang Lingyu had scattered the golden light with a single palm strike for the first time.

"Go to hell!"

Zhang Chulan pounced on Zhang Lingyu, who was radiating golden light, like a madman.

The two women from the Tianxia Society who were watching the battle from the sidelines, as well as the two Taoists Yexing and Jiyun from Longhu Mountain, couldn't help but start talking about it.

"Wow! This guy has suddenly become terrifying!"

"Zhang Chulan, sparring between supernatural beings is normal. Why are you risking your life?"

However, Zhang Chulan's frenzied attacks had no effect whatsoever on Zhang Lingyu's tangible Golden Light Spell.

Zhang Lingyu remained expressionless and raised her hand to shake his.

The next second, a golden hand suddenly shot out from the Golden Light Mantra and grabbed Zhang Chulan in its grasp!

"Even if you risked your life, this is all you'd achieve... Although I don't know how your ancestors secretly learned the Golden Light Mantra..."

"However, I will absolutely not allow someone of your dubious origin and lack of ability to defile the Celestial Master's Mansion!"

After Zhang Lingyu finished speaking harshly, she raised her hand and pinched him.

The golden hand tightened instantly, causing Zhang Chulan to scream in pain.

At that very moment—

Whoosh!

A whooshing sound was heard.

The next second, the arrow, which had been shrouded in a green glow, instantly tore through the wrist of the golden hand!

Zhang Chulan fell to the ground with a thud.

It actually tore through the golden light in an instant... terrifying penetrating power!

Zhang Lingyu frowned slightly and turned to look at her side.

From the woods, a young boy carrying a folding bow strolled out.

Who are you?

"Me? I'm just an ordinary employee of NaDuTong, nothing special."

"Unlike you, whose reputation is legendary in the world of supernatural beings."

Su Mu smiled slightly and walked up to Zhang Lingyu.

"Lingyu Zhenren of Longhu Mountain is a leading figure among the younger generation of extraordinary people."

Looking at the smile on Su Mu's face, Zhang Lingyu always felt that the other party had ill intentions.

He couldn't help but say, "Even if Zhang Chulan is someone who knows everything, his affairs with the Celestial Master's Mansion are our private matters, and the company has no right to interfere."

"Of course I know." Su Mu nodded. "Don't misunderstand, I'm not here to avenge my colleague."

Zhang Chulan got up from the ground, his lips twitching slightly.

good good!

I had just thought that this guy's sudden appearance and the way he shot off the golden hand that was loading the cargo meant he was there to help me out.

Sure enough, this guy is unreliable...

They're from the same company, and an official organization at that, yet they're being so subservient to someone who's just loading cargo...

It's better to leave it at that!

"I just wanted to learn from Master Lingyu and see if he is as strong as the rumors say."

As Su Mu spoke, he raised the folding bow, and a blue wind elemental force emanated from the bow.

Zhang Chulan stood there, stunned, his face filled with disbelief.

No?

He just said he's going to fight with the loader?

Am I right?
