Familiar ceiling…
“What the hell….”
Nuo Ai’er’s eyes snapped open as she rewound and was reborn from the second double kill ending.
The red-eyed loli raised her hand and messily tousled her snow-white hair, her small face full of defiance.
Although she couldn’t avoid the bad ending, after loading and restarting time and again, she finally thoroughly figured out the black puppet’s appearance pattern.
Next, she first summarized all the clues in her mind one by one, sorting them clearly.
First, as long as Stella left the wooden cabin, in about ten minutes, the mysterious black puppet would inevitably break in and indiscriminately hunt her and Tina down.
Make a move.
“This bully who picks on the weak.” Nuo Ai’er complained.
But if she forcefully kept Stella inside the cabin, the puppet would mysteriously disappear and never show up the whole time.
You know, this puppet’s method really is a bit like Camilla’s. When she blocked Nuo Ai’er’s spawn point before, she also waited until Leinata was teleported away before…
It seemed she had found many clues, but new difficulties were firmly stuck in front of her.
“So annoying, these two gods.”
Nuo Ai’er didn’t dare complain too loudly.
But regarding these two from the Falcon Guild, she really couldn’t hold it in.
Especially this guild master…
Stella is strong-willed and arrogant, willful and fond of whipping, so she would never listen to a little captive like Nuo Ai’er’s persuasion and stay obediently in the cabin.
Then there’s the time issue.
The only error-tolerant time is the short ten minutes or so after Stella leaves.
Within ten minutes, she must resolve the puppet crisis, otherwise she’ll still be waiting for the endless loop of double kill rewind.
“Then, what should I do…”
Nuo Ai’er slumped to the floor, shook her soft calves, and quickly settled on her next plan.
The conditions she could rely on now were pitifully few.
First, she didn’t understand the environment yet; she had to thoroughly search this abandoned cabin, find all usable items, set up some traps, and not miss anything that could be used to restrain the puppet.
Second, win over the only usable combat power in the cabin—Tina.
Although Tina seemed to be just a healer support, her combat power was definitely higher than Nuo Ai’er’s.
And the other side’s target clearly included her too; more people meant more chance of victory, so Tina had to be won over.
But all of this was hard to accomplish within ten minutes, unless they repeatedly used these ten minutes.
Hmm… in other words…
“No choice… I’ll just have to slowly trial and error.”
Nuo Ai’er sighed softly, then her eyes glistened with tears.
“This game is too hard”
From this moment, Nuo Ai’er’s infinite trial error-correction plan officially began!
The camera instantly cut to the depths of the dense forest on the other side of the instance.
Emilia was here.
“This game is too boring.”
Compared to Nuo Ai’er’s hellish imprisonment torment, Emilia on the other side was enjoying peaceful times.
The luckiest spot in the entire instance was precisely landed and secured by her.
In the middle of the lush towering ancient trees, there was a delicate and clean treehouse, hanging high in the air.
As a chosen girl with the [Strong Luck] causality talent, Emilia’s starting luck was ridiculously unfair.
She landed here right from the start and didn’t encounter a single enemy.
This treehouse was fully equipped with tables, chairs, blankets, and storage boxes.
The storage compartments were filled with ample compressed rations, canned food, and purified water—enough food supplies to never worry about elimination by starvation.
Not only was there no worry about food and drink, but the high lookout window also overlooked most of the forest, and other areas could be seen with binoculars—it was simply the ultimate safe camping spot for the instance.
At this moment, Emilia was leaning against a cushion, holding a can of sweet fruit in her hands, leisurely eating small bites.
She held a charcoal pencil and slowly hand-drew a map of the instance on a blank sheet.
From the start to now, she hadn’t even seen a shadow of an enemy.
“Geez, I still really want to have an exciting battle…”
Emilia couldn’t help muttering quietly.
Actually, it was her fault; she was too eager to start the instance.
Originally, she thought they would fight as a team, and she and Leinata together could easily take down the enemy, but unexpectedly, the System randomly scattered everyone, and they were all in different places, not even able to see the shadow of teammates or enemies.
At first, hiding in the safe house was fine without worrying too much.
But this is the thinking of a coward.
After being idle for too long, Emilia instead felt restless and uncomfortable.
She, the dignified Glaze Guild Master, was here for a guild war, not for a secluded vacation in the mountains!
And she was also worried about her teammates.
“Is that girl okay…”
Emilia propped her cheek, sighed slightly, and instantly imagined her teammates’ situations.
The one she worried about most was Nuo Ai’er.
Leinata’s combat power was formidable, so no need to worry; Hui Mei at least had a talent to protect herself.
But that little Nuo Ai’er was different—pale and soft, completely lacking combat strength, and also timid.
In this disadvantageous situation of scattered start, if Nuo Ai’er was alone and encountered an enemy…
Although Emilia didn’t hear Nuo Ai’er’s elimination notification, she might be getting bullied and controlled by the bad guys on the other side…
At the thought that her soft little teammate might be suffering, Emilia couldn’t sit still.
Take the initiative and go find everyone!
That was why Emilia was drawing a map.
Relying on the treehouse’s high terrain and looking around through binoculars, Emilia could accurately draw the terrain, roads, open spaces, and obstacles of the entire visible forest area on the paper.
Making a simple map.
Soon, a clear and complete partial forest map was perfectly formed, with travel routes and safe spots all planned out.
“Alright, then I’ll prepare and set out to find them.”
Emilia put away the map, casually stuffed two cans of fruit as rations, and packed up to set out.
Just as she stood up to tidy the blanket and was about to go downstairs—
“Awooo—!!”
A clear and piercing wolf howl came from the distant dense forest.
The sound was very penetrating and highly distinctive.
Emilia’s eyes narrowed, and she immediately rushed to the lookout window, raised her binoculars, and looked toward the source of the sound.
In a forest clearing far away, a fierce battle was underway.
In the center of the clearing, a familiar red cloak figure flipped nimbly, short sword flashing coldly, with rapid and fierce attacks.
Across from her, an orange-haired girl raised a giant heavy hammer, unleashing brute force, each swing kicking up dust from the ground.
But that orange-haired girl was clearly the one being suppressed.
“Is that Leinata?! “
Seeing the familiar Little Red Riding Hood, Emilia sighed in relief.
Wonder if it’s also because of the strong luck talent, but the strongest teammate actually showed up!
Emilia smiled, then grabbed two more bottles of water and a few cans, and set off toward Leinata’s direction.
