 As they descended, his clothes got wet, and now he was poisoned; a snakebite could lead to symptoms like general weakness and a low fever.


“Are you cold?”


Qin Mubai paused slightly, looking down and softly replying.


“The players above are too scared to come down. Just rest for a while,” Ye Nianchu said, releasing his hand so he could lean against her.


The more movement, the faster the toxins spread in his body.


Qin Mubai buried his face in her neck, a faint smile on his lips. “Okay.”


With such a shallow wound, only a small amount of toxin had entered his system. That snake wasn't among the most venomous, so he wasn't in a critical state.


But her presence was comforting.


Ye Nianchu glanced at his handsome face, which appeared even paler due to his discomfort. His thick eyelashes fluttered down, looking fragile enough to tighten her heart.


His even, gentle breaths tickled her neck, causing a strange sensation.


She instinctively wanted to pull away but immediately restrained herself.


He needed rest right now.


Ye Nianchu moved slowly and carefully, adjusting her position so Qin Mubai could lean closer. It was too damp in the cave to start a fire, so they had to huddle together for warmth.

The players waiting outside watched time tick by, unable to come up with a useful strategy. They circled around repeatedly, too afraid to get too close, fearing another ambush like before.


The location of that hole by the pool was too perfect. How did those two even think of it?


Knowing where the opponents were but being unable to hit them felt just as frustrating as seeing food but not being able to eat it.


“Damn it, I should have gone to the third place instead,” the group leader threw his knife into the ground in frustration.


He had believed that woman’s nonsense about the third place having a strong team with good weapons and equipment.


Could those two really be harder to deal with?


Aside from watching the game end and wasting their last bullets out of anger, there was nothing else they could do.

On the tenth day of the game, precisely at midnight.


The coldness surrounding her and the fatigue she felt disappeared.


The system announced the end of the game.


【Congratulations, player, you have successfully cleared the game 'Rainforest'.


You will receive base points: 835;


Completion points: 100;


Ability level increased by one; Progress unlocked by 5.


You performed excellently in this round and ranked first in points. In addition to the above rewards, you will receive a special item—'Transformation'.


This item will activate automatically in applicable games and cannot be turned on or off manually!


Note: This item is not for sale in the store and cannot be obtained through other means.】


She got another bizarre item.


Automatically activated and unmanageable?


That sounded like a trap.


Ye Nianchu’s player information on the system interface had changed.


【Player: Ye Nian Level: S Points: 2205 Unlock Degree: 60.】


Additionally, there was a line regarding S-level abilities.


【Special Ability: Ice Ability;


Level: 1.】


She was finally back to S-level and could access the space and system store!


“Is the ability level raised to level 1 only after an increase? Was the initial level 0?”


【Yes, dear S-level player. You can choose to forgo this opportunity and exchange for 1000 points.】


Ye Nianchu decisively chose no. “How can I raise my ability level?”


【The method for S-level player ability enhancement is not disclosed and depends on player performance in the game. Players can explore autonomously.】


As expected, it was all about exploration again.


The system's consistent style.


Ye Nianchu opened the system store, which categorized items based on point consumption and type.

Translation Update! 🍙 Translation Update! 🍙 ✨ Quick note: English isn't my first language, so please understand there might be some typos or awkward phrasing - I'm doing my best! ✨ Hey everyone, just a quick update: As of today, April 28, 2025 , I want to give you all a heads-up about a few small issues you might come across in the story, specifically with some of the prop names. It's not exactly a typo issue—it's more about changes I've made over time. For instance, I originally used the term 'data concealment number' but later changed it to 'number concealment data.' Since these are just prop names in the story, it's not a major issue for the plot, but I totally get that some of you might find it a little annoying if you're really particular about details. ...

 “Bang—” The air trembled, and bright light hit Gu Zhan's eyelids, making him squint. “Patient 707 has been admitted.” A cold female voice sounded. Patient 707? Who? Gu Zhan squinted against the blinding light and realized he was lying down under a surgical shadowless lamp. Next to him stood several people in deep green surgical scrubs, their faces obscured by the light. One of them leaned over to look at him; the blue medical mask covered most of his features, leaving only a pair of narrow, dark eyes visible. He said, “707 has woken up. Administer a sedative.” A syringe pierced the back of Gu Zhan's hand, and the cold liquid flowed in, gradually blurring his consciousness... ... “Crash—” “Bang!” The sound of metal clashing echoed sharply. A metal bed was forcefully pushed away, sliding a great distance before crashing against the wall. Gu Zhan's head struck the bed frame heavily, and the intense pain momentarily brought him back to awareness. Then came the sound of a door ...

The broadcast from the main system echoed throughout the instance. In the pitch-black snowy night, accompanied by the eerie howling wind of the ebony forest, Jiang Yan felt utterly disoriented. The "Hunter" in front of him couldn’t hear the main system’s intrusive voice and was still waiting for his "little sheep" to kiss him. However, Jiang Yan simply reached out, gently touched the demon-like ram horns of the "Hunter," and then unhesitatingly pulled the blanket over his head. Hunter: "...So disobedient." Soon after, a kiss landed softly on the top of Jiang Yan's head. A pair of long, broad hands rested on his waist as the "Hunter" drifted into slumber. Meanwhile, the game forum’s players erupted into an explosive celebration: [I’m dying of laughter! What kind of penalty is this?? It’s my first time hearing such a ridiculous deduction reason!] [“Please immediately kiss the BOSS.” What the heck? Hahaha...] [This will go down...

Jiang Yan ignored 663, curling up under the blanket like a quail. The "Hunter" holding him would occasionally rub his head, seemingly captivated by the texture. Jiang Yan obediently played the role of a "pet." Based on his years of watching horror movies and reading scary stories, he knew that being "clever" or "kind-hearted" in such games only led to quicker deaths. "You still have five days," the Hunter said, savoring the softness and compliance of the person in his arms. His pale, pupil-less eyes glinted with pleasure. Although a sheep's head couldn't show human expressions, it was clear he was smiling. Hearing this, the four people huddled in the cage shivered in unison. Only Wang Yu sat blankly by the edge, tears streaming as he gazed at his lover. The "Cops and Robbers" Game The "Hunter" acted as the cop, giving the players (the "robbers") ten days to escape the forest. If they found t...

 In early September, during a Mathematical Analysis class at A University of Science and Technology, the sophomore students were noticeably distracted. The young professor at the podium glanced down and spotted a large group of students engrossed in their phones. Though he wasn’t a high school teacher, he couldn’t help but lament inwardly: “This generation is worse than the last. Even in Math Analysis class, they dare to slack off?” He could already envision the dismal outcomes on the final grades. Clearing his throat somewhat theatrically, he still received no attention. Growing annoyed, the professor resolved to be tough with the grades this year to combat this poor attitude. At the back of the classroom, Ge Zhicheng's heart raced as he continuously refreshed the backend of the academic system's page. What the professor didn’t know was that today was the day for second-year students in the College of Science to be reassigned to dormitories; the assignment list would be post...
