Chapter 195

According to Xu Duoyi, the Dimensional Space was actually incredibly useful.

During the seven-day rest period, Players could freely enter their own Dimensional Space, and with the Player’s permission, other Players could enter as well.

So, thanks to her acting as the go-between, Xu Duoyi brought a girl she claimed was unbelievably lucky into Tu Nan’s Dimensional Space.

The girl was very young-so young that Tu Nan almost felt uncomfortable just looking at her.

She seemed to be only around ten years old.

The Instances didn’t even spare children this small.

“You’re Sister Tu Nan, right? I heard them-”

Xu Duoyi slapped Song Yanhao hard on the back, forcibly making her swallow the rest of her sentence.

Tu Nan looked at the two of them in confusion.

“I mentioned you to her before,” Xu Duoyi said with a smile, pointing at Song Yanhao. “Her name is Song Yanhao. Forum ID: I Am Super Lucky Star.”

Tu Nan paused slightly, then couldn’t help giving the little girl, who barely reached her chest, a careful once-over.

Anyone in the Fairy Tale Category forum would probably be familiar with that name.

A natural-born luck queen whose fortune was enough to make people jealous-the Super Lucky Star who had cleared an Instance by catching sea turtles under the sea for five days.

“Hello,” Song Yanhao said, smiling brightly at her.

Song Yanhao had an obedient, adorable face. At first glance, it was impossible not to feel fond of her, and she inspired an inexplicable sense of trust.

“You…” Tu Nan hesitated as she looked at her. “Why do I feel so close to you the moment I see you…?”

“It’s one of my Talents,” Song Yanhao said without hiding anything. “Everyone who sees me automatically gains thirty points of Favorability toward me.”

What a plain, unpretentious, and ridiculously useful Skill, Tu Nan sighed inwardly.

“Haohao also has another Skill: maxed-out luck,” Xu Duoyi explained. “Because she’s a minor, she gets one more Skill than everyone else to maintain balance.”

“So if I open a blind box, I’ll definitely get the hidden version,” Song Yanhao said, puffing out her chest with great pride. “Sister Nannan, what blind box do you want to open?”

They all knew very well that the so-called blind box was only an alternative way of putting it.

Tu Nan took out her gift box and handed it to Song Yanhao.

Rewards drawn by Players could not be taken by other Players unless they were willingly gifted, so Tu Nan had no worries about handing the gift box over to Song Yanhao.

Song Yanhao accepted the gift box, casually pulled off the bow on top, and opened it.

The box burst with a perfectly ordinary golden light, and a perfectly ordinary notification sounded perfectly ordinarily in Tu Nan’s mind:

[Congratulations, Player. You have obtained a special reward: The Most Needed Skill Card at the Moment.

As the name suggests, when the Player uses this Skill Card, the System will automatically generate the Skill Card that the Player needs most at that moment.]

What a perfectly ordinary name.

Tu Nan looked at Song Yanhao with envy.

If she had opened the box herself, there was no way she would have gotten an item this good.

This was practically a god-tier card that could save your life at a critical moment!

“What’s wrong?” Xu Duoyi asked curiously as she watched Tu Nan’s expression shift again and again. “Was the thing you got useless? That can’t be right. Haohao has never missed before.”

Song Yanhao also looked at her own chubby little hand in puzzlement.

“No,” Tu Nan said calmly. “It’s too useful.”

Xu Duoyi: “…”
“That’s good.” She gave a light cough. “If you have any more ‘blind boxes’ to open in the future, you can ask Haohao to help. She’s especially eager to help others.”

Song Yanhao looked up at Xu Duoyi and puffed out her cheeks like a little bun, but still nodded hard and said firmly, “Yes. I’m especially eager to help others.”

Tu Nan had the feeling that Xu Duoyi had something she wanted to say.

“Is there something you want to tell me?” she asked.

“Uh…” Xu Duoyi hesitated. “Actually, there is something…”

“What is it?” Tu Nan blinked. “If I can help, I’ll do my best.”

“I want to invite you to join my team.” Xu Duoyi took a deep breath and said it all in one go. “We’ve been looking for the right Teammate, and I think you’re one of them. We’ve cleared so many Instances together already, so I guess you could call it fate.”

Tu Nan hesitated. She thought of Priestley. Back then, she had also promised him that she would run an Instance with the members of his team.

“You don’t want to?” Xu Duoyi asked, disappointed when she saw her expression.

“That’s not it.” Tu Nan hesitated for a moment. “Someone else invited me before this. I’d like to give you an answer after I settle things on his side first. Is that okay?”

“Of course it is.” Xu Duoyi let out a breath of relief. Apparently, she wasn’t worried that Tu Nan would choose the other side. “When there’s a multiplayer Instance, you’ll be able to meet my Teammate. They’re all outstanding, and very strong too.”

“That’s right, Sister Nannan,” Song Yanhao said, blinking up at her. “Everyone is really, really nice.”

Tu Nan couldn’t help laughing. She bent down and patted her on the head.

“All right. If we get the chance, let’s team up together, okay?”

“Okay,” Song Yanhao said sweetly.
—
After saying goodbye to Xu Duoyi and Song Yanhao, Tu Nan returned to reality.

Xu Duoyi had just brought up forming a team, and Tu Nan felt that after her next Instance ended, she really should go find Priestley and have a talk with him. But when he left back then, he hadn’t told her his forum ID. How was she supposed to find him?

She frowned and thought for a moment, then decided Fu Zhixing might know.

After all, he had been active on the forums for a long time, and the Dean of Fairy Tale Hospital ought to have at least some reputation.

She immediately took out her phone and opened her chat with Fu Zhixing.

[Drooling Fairy Tale Book: Sorry to bother you. Do you know Priestley? The Dean of Fairy Tale Hospital.]

Fu Zhixing did not reply right away. Maybe he was in an Instance.

Tu Nan wasn’t in a hurry either. She tossed her phone onto the sofa, changed into workout clothes, and began her training as relentlessly as ever.

Ever since the Strange Tales descended, the world had fallen into chaos. Ordinary people lived in constant fear, but some saw the Strange Tales as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, something that had made their previously ordinary, dull lives exciting.

After obtaining the strange abilities bestowed upon them by the Strange Tales, not only did they fail to protect ordinary people, they even treated them as prey.

Tu Nan could not understand people like that, nor did she intend to provoke them. All she could do was avoid going out as much as possible, lest she accidentally run into one of those lunatics.

Her House wasn’t large, but it was more than enough for her to live in alone. Tu Nan had remodeled the original study, moving some exercise equipment back from an abandoned gym near her home and turning it into a somewhat simple one-person fitness room.
