My incredible luck and the girl I picked up

Oh my god...

"Tell me! How are you going to compensate my brother! My brother was framed and had his hand broken before, and it hasn't even healed much yet, and you broke it again! How are you going to compensate him!" The man stood up, pointed at Leng Binglan, and shouted loudly, which drew the attention of everyone nearby.

"I just wanted to celebrate Binglan's birthday, how did it turn into such a big mess?" Leng Yihan muttered in dissatisfaction, not wanting to pay any attention to the two of them, and pulled Leng Binglan's hand, preparing to ignore them and leave.

"Hey! Why are you trying to run away? You hurt my brother's hand and you're not going to pay for his medical expenses? What's wrong with you?!" The man immediately stepped forward to stop the two women. In his eyes, they were just two weak women, nothing to be afraid of, especially since he was in the right first.

"Sigh...it's so true." Leng Yihan squinted at the guy blocking her way, while Leng Binglan beside her had her head down, so her expression couldn't be seen.

"I want to ask... why did you say that my sister broke your brother's arm again?" Leng Yihan asked.

"Nonsense! I saw it with my own eyes, your sister ran right into my brother's hand!"

"She's so small, how could she have been injured?"

"My brother's arm isn't even healed yet, he just got out of the hospital with a cast on and you've injured it again! Tell me, how are you going to compensate me?" Seeing that he had a chance, the man immediately pressed on.

"Are you sure you didn't see wrong? It was clearly a guy who bumped into your brother's arm, why are you saying it was my sister?"

"Bullshit! It's your sister!"

"Oh, okay, I'll tell you something." Hearing Leng Yihan say this, the man's curiosity was suddenly piqued.

"Are you out of your mind? Go home with that guy whose hand is perfectly fine." After Leng Yihan finished speaking, since there was someone blocking the way, he and Leng Binglan would just go back the way they came.

"Tsk, hey, you..." Just as the man was about to catch up, someone tripped him, and he fell flat on his face. The trash can also fell over, and all the trash was dumped on the man.

"Let's go, Binglan." Seeing that someone had come to her aid, Leng Yihan pulled Leng Binglan away from the scene quickly, leaving the rest of the mess to others.

"Hmm... I suddenly don't want to shop anymore..." Leng Binglan's expression wasn't very good. "What's wrong? Did those people upset you?" Leng Yihan asked with concern.

"Yeah...it's so annoying, that person clearly didn't have a broken bone..."

"Then why did you look worried before?"

"I thought I hadn't held back and had actually broken his bone..."

"Alright, you're really something else." Leng Yihan complained. Anyway, she believed that someone else would take care of things over there, so the two of them stopped strolling around the food street and went to another place.

Finally, we visited several clothing stores and bought Leng Binglan a few new outfits. We also bought some skincare products. Leng Binglan thought makeup was too much trouble, so we didn't buy her any cosmetics. After all, she's the female lead, so what if she's bare-faced? She'll still look beautiful.

Later, the two went to the aquarium for a look, and finally returned home in the afternoon. Lin Yin didn't stay at home all day; she also went to visit her parents and just returned home.

The three of them didn't invite anyone else to Leng Binglan's birthday celebration. After all, they had already celebrated Leng Yihan's birthday with her since it was close to Leng Binglan's. This time, they decided to celebrate her birthday properly for her.

At night, the room was pitch black, with only the candles on the cake on the table providing light.

Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you!

Happy Birthday, Ice Blue!

As the candles were blown out, Leng Yihan turned the lights back on. She was quite surprised when she gave the bracelet to Leng Binglan; how could she not see the spiritual power within it? She happily and contentedly accepted the gift. As for Lin Yin…

"This, this is just something I picked randomly, take it or leave it~" Lin Yin blushed and handed a wrapped gift to Leng Binglan with a haughty look on her face.

Leng Binglan, intrigued, immediately opened the box. Inside was a jade flute, perhaps hinting at Leng Binglan... no, I didn't say anything, don't overthink it.

Leng Binglan accepted the gift with a smile. Even though she couldn't play it, it was still a keepsake, so she decided to keep it safe.

Finally, it was time to cut the cake, but things quickly turned sour. A cake fight broke out, and in the end, not much cake was eaten. The room was a complete mess. By the time the three of them finished showering and tidied up, it was already 8:30. The server had been open for half an hour, so the two of them hurriedly returned to their room and logged into Oracle.

As a die-hard player of Oracle, the best gift for Leng Binglan is naturally the bracelet given by Leng Yihan, and the second is all the new items that Oracle updates.

After going online, the three discussed it and decided to complete the "Nightmare and Dream" quest first, and then play the newly released team survival mode.

Leng Yihan returned to the main city and teleported to the level 10 main city. The level 10 main city was now overcrowded. Fortunately, she didn't need to go to the NPC to get the quest. She just needed to run to the pool in the center and jump in to trigger the quest automatically.

It took Leng Yihan most of the day to finally squeeze to the side of the pool. She took a deep breath and jumped in.

The moment Leng Yihan plunged into the water, it felt as if she had fallen into an endless void, falling and falling. At that moment, a strange male voice rang in her ears…

Welcome to...the nightmare...

109 Nightmares (1)

Welcome to...the nightmare...

"Tsk, this familiar beginning, this similar pattern, could it be... it's you! Shock! [Silence]!" Because Leng Yihan revealed something incredible, he was killed on the spot. The End.

-

"Hiss... What happened..." Leng Yihan slowly woke up. The sky was gloomy, as if it was about to rain at any moment. He was lying alone in a desert.

Struggling to get up, Leng Yihan subconsciously glanced at the status bar, but... nothing was there.

Hey?

There is no skill bar.

Backpack? No.

The health bar is empty.

They were not equipped with weapons.

No settings.

Exit button... there isn't one.

Nothing at all.

"Wh...what's going on?" Leng Yihan looked around in a bit of a panic. There was nothing around her, but she had a strange feeling. This feeling prompted her to take a step forward and explore towards the end of the desert.

"What happened... Why am I here? How long have I been unconscious? Why are all my status bars gone..." Leng Yihan walked across the desert in confusion, dressed only in simple cloth.

"Could it be... that divine decree, Leng Binglan, Lin Yin, it was all just my imagination? It was all just a dream?" Leng Yihan dismissed the thought as soon as it surfaced. "No... I can't think like that. If I do, who knows what will happen... So what exactly happened? Why are all these things in the skill bar and status bar gone..."

Leng Yihan couldn't give himself an answer either. He could only keep walking forward, hoping to meet a living person who could tell him where he was and what was happening.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Leng Yihan's mouth became dry and her strength was failing. Her steps gradually became heavier and heavier, and every step was so difficult that it was more like moving around than taking a step.

"Am I... going to die?" As if she were truly dying, Leng Yihan's knees could no longer support her body, and she knelt down, collapsing onto the sand.

"He died in a daze...?"

"Ah..." Leng Yihan slowly closed his eyes. At that moment, he seemed to see someone running towards him.

It was probably just a hallucination before he died. He couldn't even distinguish between reality and the game before he died. How tragic...

……

Leng Yihan woke up again, but this time he was not in the desert. In front of him was the ceiling. He was in a room.

Leng Yihan immediately tried to get up to see what was going on around her, but her whole body was sore and weak that she couldn't get up at all.

"Wait! Don't move. You're severely dehydrated and exhausted. You're still not feeling well and need to rest for a while." Someone immediately stopped Leng Yihan from moving, and a girl appeared in Leng Yihan's sight.

She might not be as pretty as some of the girls Leng Yihan knew, but for some reason, this girl now seemed like a goddess to him. Perhaps this was a debt of gratitude?

Leng Yihan was still confused, not knowing where he was, what had happened, whether this was reality or a game, or who he was...

"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Si Xiaoshui. We found you lying on the ground when we were returning from the Demon Desert, so we rescued you. You're safe now," Si Xiaoshui explained. She seemed like a nice person.

……that.

Leng Yihan tried to speak, but found her throat extremely dry, and the voice she made was hoarse and completely inaudible.

"Ah! Right, water, open your mouth and I'll feed you." Following Si Xiaoshui's instructions, Leng Yihan opened her mouth slightly, and Si Xiaoshui picked up the water bag in her hand and poured the water into Leng Yihan's mouth.

“…Thank you.” Leng Yihan said softly. His voice was still very soft and hoarse, but it was already clear what he was saying.

"By the way, where are you from?"

"Where...is he?" Leng Yihan tilted her head. "I don't know."

After all, I can't even tell who I am or whether this is reality or virtual right now.

Leng Yihan felt bitter. Right now, she should be thinking about surviving. She would only know the truth of all this after she survived.

"Is that so..." Si Xiaoshui frowned cutely, "In that case, we won't be able to send you back to your hometown..." Si Xiaoshui seemed troubled about something.

"Can I... stay here temporarily?" Leng Yihan asked softly. If not... he didn't know what to do.

"It's possible... Could it be that your hometown was destroyed by the Sand Demon?" Si Xiaoshui suddenly thought of something and asked Leng Yihan.

"...Sand Demon?"

what?

Leng Yihan looked at Si Xiaoshui with suspicion. Si Xiaoshui was a very patient and intelligent person, and quickly guessed Leng Yihan's current situation, "You didn't... lose your memory, did you?"

Leng Yihan nodded after a moment of silence. If it was a case of amnesia, then it was normal not to know the common knowledge here. This way, perhaps Si Xiaoshui could explain it to her in more detail.

"I see..."

"Can you tell me?" Leng Yihan looked at Si Xiaoshui expectantly.

"Okay, no problem. What do you want to know?" Si Xiaoshui agreed politely.

"Where did I faint? Where are we now? And... some common sense stuff." Leng Yihan listed them one by one. He spoke a little slowly, and if he spoke faster, his throat would inexplicably hurt.

"Hmm... Well, let's start with where you collapsed. You collapsed in the Demon Desert. Actually, when our team returned from the exploration, we were quite surprised. You had walked alone in the Demon Desert for who knows how long and were still alive. At that time, our captain immediately ordered to bring you back. Maybe it would be another major breakthrough in our exploration."

However, after the captain brought you back, he observed you carefully several times but didn't find anything or any ability that could shield you from the sand demons in the Demon Desert. But later, we were certain that you definitely had this ability. On our way back, we encountered sand demons several times, but they all seemed to ignore us and just walked away...

As for the Sand Demon, it's a monster that naturally appears in the Demon Desert. Its core, the Sand Core, is very useful to us, but humans have a hard time dealing with Sand Demons, so we try to collect the Sand Cores dropped when they fight each other.

"The formation of the Demon Desert..." Leng Yihan asked again.

"I don't know. The only people who probably know this are the higher-ups." Si Xiaoshui shook her head helplessly, unable to answer Leng Yihan's question.

"And the place we are in now is Disha, one of the oases in the Demon Desert. Disha is one of the second-level cities in the Demon Desert. A second-level city means that the sand level of the city is level three. Above the second-level cities are level one cities and level zero cities, and below them are level three cities, level four cities, and level five cities. Level five cities are newly developed cities. So, what I said earlier was, could it be that your hometown was a level five city that had just been upgraded to level four, and then it was destroyed by the Sand Demons?" Si Xiaoshui hesitated for a moment, but still said the word.

"...What is the sand's level?"

"The meaning of 'Sand Level' is actually quite broad. It's a comprehensive assessment of a city's data, which is then submitted to the elders of Skala, the pinnacle of humanity and the first city in the Demon Desert, for evaluation. If Desa is already at the top level of a second-tier city, it's very likely that it will be upgraded to a first-tier city in the evaluation a week later. So our adventure team's task has become more demanding." Si Xiaoshui said, pouting slightly in dissatisfaction, playing with her long black hair.

"Your adventure team is responsible for collecting the Sand Core, right?" Leng Yihan asked again.

"Yes." Si Xiaoshui nodded.

"So... is there a ranking system for these?" Hearing Leng Yihan's words, Si Xiaoshui's expression suddenly became a little unnatural. "Um... yes, adventure teams do have a ranking system, from highest to lowest: S, A, B, C, D, E, F... The ranking is based on the adventure team's contribution to the city... I initially became an adventurer because the salary and benefits were really good, so I passed the test and joined an adventure team, but the results were ultimately a bit disappointing... I guess it's my fault. Everyone tried their best every time, but I always dragged them down..."

"What's your level?" Leng Yihan asked curiously, but saw the four little ones lower their heads and remain silent for a long time before finally uttering a single word in a low voice: "F..."

……
