“The flash of inspiration” danced more cheerfully.
Under Bai Lixin’s intense gaze, Xia Chi panicked and grabbed the coffee in front of him, chugging it down in one gulp before daring to speak up, “It’s like this…”
“You were trapped in a time cage before, and I missed you, but there was nothing to remind me of you. One day, I accidentally bumped into a girl in the entertainment area and she dropped something from her pocket. She seemed afraid of being recognized, so she didn’t pick it up and ran away.”
“At the time, I picked it up out of curiosity,” Xia Chi cautiously glanced at Bai Lixin and continued, “and it opened up a whole new world for me.”
“Since that day, I’ve been collecting your merchandise. You have to believe me, brother, I really just wanted something to remind me of you.”
Xia Chi swallowed hard and shrunk himself in the corner.
Bai Lixin asked, “So, how much have you collected?”
“It’s not that much, I’ve collected everything I could find, novels, artbooks, figurines, it’s about a hundred pieces altogether,” Xia Chi replied.
S419 commented, [Hahaha, impressive.]
Bai Lixin took a deep breath and reached out his hand to Xia Chi, “Hand them over, I’m confiscating them.”
Xia Chi was speechless.
After taking Xia Chi’s collection by force, Bai Lixin looked at the other three stiff individuals and asked lightly, “You guys didn’t collect anything, did you?”
The three instantly looked like cats whose tails were stepped on, and quickly shook their heads in unison, “No, absolutely not!”
At times like this, you can’t say anything! Only a fool would speak up!
Bai Lixin cleared his throat and stuffed the pile of merchandise into his backpack, “So, where were we?”
Zhou Guang blushed, “We were just about to stir up some emotions.”
Liang Xi nodded in agreement, “Yes, that’s right, we were about to stir up some emotions.”
Bai Lixin elegantly picked up his cappuccino and took a sip, then placed it on the table and tested the waters, “So, are you guys going to continue?”
Li Cancan looked conflicted, “Maybe we should just drop it. My well-prepared emotions have gone with Xia Chi to the grave.”
Xia Chi wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and glanced nervously at Bai Lixin, not daring to speak up.
Bai Lixin chuckled and suddenly brightened up the entire room like a blooming flower. For a moment, everyone was stunned. They had known Bai Lixin for a long time and didn’t need to believe Xia Chi’s words, they could always believe in Bai Lixin’s looks.
Bai Lixin said, “By the way, am I on the lowest floor among us now?”
Zhou Guang was the first to snap out of it, “You’re on the 380th floor now, and the rest of us are above the 450th floor.”
Liang Xi: “My floor is the lowest, I’m on the 429th floor.”
Li Cancan: “Mine and Zhou Guang’s are similar, we’re on the 454th floor. Among us, Xia Chi is doing best, and is about to reach the 500th floor.”
Bai Lixin sent a curious glance at Xia Chi, who immediately straightened up, “I am now on the 497th floor, and I’m almost at 500! Brother, don’t underestimate yourself. Although you are lower than us, you’ve been stagnant for almost three years. It took us almost two years to climb a hundred floors, but you’re different. I estimate you can surpass us in two to three months.”
Xia Chi’s serious and sincere expression amused Bai Lixin. “Why do you make me sound so powerful? Are you trying to make me into a god?”
Xia Chi replied, “Hey, it’s not like that. You were already a god. Do you know how people used to refer to you? They called you the ‘ God Xin.’ If you’re not a god, what are you?”
Bai Lixin nodded, his eyes filled with contentment. “I’m glad that after more than two years, you guys are still safely standing in front of me. It seems that each of you have had different opportunities?”
Zhou Guang said, “Yes, during the time you were away, we were actually quite depressed. Perhaps, in our hearts, you had always been an invincible presence, and we subconsciously viewed you as our spiritual pillar.”
“Your departure made us very sad, but it also made us realize the horror of this game.”
“Later on, we were encouraged by Xia Chi and came out of our depression. He firmly believed that you would come back.”
Zhou Guang paused, and looked towards Xia Chi.
“I told Zhou Guang that you would definitely come back. But we didn’t know when you would come back, and we couldn’t always rely on you. We hoped that when you came back, we could be your support and backing.”
“We started working hard on clearing copies and learning new skills.”
Liang Xi added, “Yes, thanks to Xia Chi’s words at the time. Although I’m not very capable yet, I can hold my own now. At least, if we encounter danger again, we won’t just be the ones being protected.”
Li Cancan asked, “God Xin, how were you able to jump more than a hundred floors in one go? At the time, we thought you could at most reach the 300th floor. From floor 240 to 380, it takes more than a million points to increase your score.”
Bai Lixin thought for two seconds and then explained the story of the God of Plague and Death. However, he only mentioned that the system was afraid of it and didn’t mention Dijia.
After Bai Lixin finished speaking, the group fell into a few seconds of silence.
Occasionally, conversations and footsteps of other players could be heard from outside, but this room was surprisingly quiet.
After a few seconds, Zhou Guang was the first to break the silence. “Wow, I never thought that the system was afraid of that black monster. But that monster was indeed terrifying. We could feel the pressure even though the screen, not to mention you who faced it up close.”
“That black monster burst into the black mushroom cloud, right? We watched it disappear into the sky so it was probably killed by the explosion?”
Bai Lixin’s eyes were deep, and he shook his head: “It shouldn’t have died, it’s not that weak.”
“If it’s not dead, will it appear in other copies in the future?” Liang Xi shuddered, “I hope we don’t run into it.”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked at Bai Lixin, then averted their gazes with sympathy.
Bai Lixin: “….”
Wasn’t it too much?
Escape games should prohibit discrimination against players with F luck!
—————-
Afterwards, they chatted about many daily trivial matters. Bai Lixin was quiet most of the time, occasionally answering their questions or saying a few words. When the coffee was almost finished, Zhou Guang spoke up: “God Xin, besides us missing you, there’s actually one more thing we wanted to talk to you about today.”
Bai Lixin lazily lifted his eyelids, “What’s the matter?”
Zhou Guang, Xia Chi, Liang Xi, and Li Can Can took a deep breath, and tentatively said, “Do you want to form a guild?”
“Guild?” Bai Lixin’s wandering thoughts gradually returned. “Is it your guild? I’m not in a guild, so there’s no problem joining.”
“No,” Zhou Guang and the others felt a little more confident when they heard that Bai Lixin was not rejecting the idea. Zhou Guang shook his head. “Not joining, but leading.”
“Leading?” Bai Lixin lazily leaned on the sofa at this moment. He muttered this word and his lazy eyes gradually became clear. “You want me to be the guild president?”
Xia Chi said, “Brother, I knew you’re the smartest, you understood it in a snap. Didn’t I tell you before that we worked hard to level up so that we could be your backup? I also mentioned in the private chat I sent you that I had a surprise for you.”
“Core Fore Guild is our surprise gift to you.”
“Although this guild has only been established for a year, it is ranked in the top two hundred. We have done our research and although playing solo is fun, the guild’s help is crucial for clearing the levels in the later stages of the game.”
“Especially the guild leaders, they get inherent ‘attributes’ bonuses. Brother, I have figured out that you are different from us. We all entered this game with some kind of obsession, but it seems like you don’t care about anything.”
“You must have a greater goal to accomplish.”
“Don’t worry, we know that you don’t like to be tied down by guilds and social interactions, so you just have to be the guild president in name. As long as you have the title of guild president, the attributes bonuses will be effective. We’ll take care of other things in the guild, and you don’t have to worry about it. Also, our guild members are not many, and each of them has been carefully selected. Altogether, there are only more than forty people in the guild.”
Bai Lixin gave the few people a deep look and suddenly said lightly, “So this is the ‘surprise’ you mentioned in your message before?”
“Yes,” Xia Chi considered for two seconds and said with some agitation, “Yes, but the decision is yours. You must not put yourself in an uncomfortable position if you don’t want this.”
Bai Lixin stared at the cappuccino which had gradually solidified at the bottom. “This guild is your effort, and I haven’t been involved in it from start to finish.”
“To be honest, compared to me, any one of you is more qualified to be the guild president.”
The eyes of the group were a little panicked and regretful.
“But I don’t reject the idea of being a leader.”
For him, leading a guild shouldn’t be a difficult task. In his long career as a quick transmigration, he had not only been a company president, but also an emperor several times.
“I didn’t want to join other guilds not because I love freedom, but because I was recruited for a specific purpose. I just don’t like being someone else’s pawn.”
The few people looked at each other in confusion.
Bai Lixin continued, “Core Fire Guild, a spark of fore can start a prairie fire. Core and Fire, I should have thought of it earlier.”
“Speaking of which, your proposal reminded me. I have such abilities, so I should do my due responsibilities.”
“Xia Chi, Zhou Guang, Liang Xi, Li Cancan,” Bai Lixin suddenly looked up at them, “I really like the surprise you gave me.”
“I also promise you that one day, starting with the Core Fire Guild, I will take you and everyone out of this game.”
“This is my promise to you, and also my promise to myself.”
Xia Chi and the others were stunned for a moment, then they realized what Bai Lixin meant and their eyes widened with excitement, saying in unison, “You agree?!”
Bai Lixin raised his eyebrows, “Is there a problem with my expression?”
Xia Chi took a deep breath and said, “Hahaha, no no, Brother is indeed Brother! You don’t know, we looked relaxed, but we were actually nervous. When you first came, we were all hesitant. We were afraid of being rude to you and putting pressure on you.”
Bai Lixin replied, “Then you really underestimated me, it’s just a guild.”
“Also, you got one thing wrong,” Bai Lixin straightened his slightly slanted collar and gave Xia Chi a faint glance.
Xia Chi was confused, “Ah? What’s wrong?”
Bai Lixin replied matter-of-factly, “I’m not without obsessions, I’m here with a purpose.”
The others looked at him curiously and asked, “What purpose?”
Bai Lixin answered, “To find my husband.”
The others suddenly had visions of a vine, a block of ice, and a dragon…
As expected of Bai Lixin, even his husband was unique.
Zhou Guang said, “Bai Lixin, it’s getting late, let’s take you to the guild.”
“Okay,” Bai Lixin got up from his seat, “let’s go.”
As soon as they left the private room, they ran into Lin Jue and other members of the Sand Sea Guild.
Lin Jue was still wearing his stylish leather jacket and was accompanied by two people.
One was the president of the Sand Sea Guild, Song Yuantian, whose face was pale and whose hair was so light that it was almost white. The other was Samael, who kept his whole body hidden in a black cloak.
Bai Lixin immediately greeted the people blocking his way, “Long time no see.”
Not only was Song Yuantian’s skin pale, his lips were also bloodless. Bai Lixin felt that he seemed weaker than the last time they met. Song Yuantian took a handkerchief out of his pocket and coughed lightly into it, his face turning even paler.
Lin Jue had no choice but to speak up, “We’re not here by coincidence, we came here specifically to find you.”
Xia Chi and the others immediately frowned, and the tense atmosphere was on the verge of breaking out.
However, Bai Lixin and Song Yuantian at the center of the storm remained calm. Upon hearing Lin Jue’s words, Bai Lixin asked, “How did you know I was here?”
Lin Jue replied, “You’re not an unknown person, and the moment you appeared here, we knew it. Don’t think too much about it, we’re not monitoring you. It’s just that someone in your group called out to you, and coincidentally, we had to talk to you about something. I was planning to send you a private message, but the matter is quite complicated, and the guild president hoped to talk to you in person.”
Private message? No way! That would be even more troublesome.
Bai Lixin quickly scanned the three people with probing eyes and said, “I know you didn’t send anyone to follow me. If you did, I would have noticed it long ago. We happen to be planning to go to the Core Fire Guild. It’s not convenient to talk here, let’s go there to talk.”
Song Yuantian stopped coughing and said, “Alright, lead the way.”
Three minutes later, they arrived at the secret conference room of the Core Fire Guild.
Zhou Guang said, “I have set up blockers around this conference room, and no one can eavesdrop on the content inside except for the system. You can speak freely when you’re ready.”
Bai Lixin remained silent.
However, you may not know that the one we should be most wary of is the system.
Song Yuantian took a deep breath, and his voice stuttered as he spoke, “Bai Lixin, I’m really glad that you were able to return to the game lobby. At the same time, I also want you to apologize. If it wasn’t for me insisting that you go to the Underworld Copy, if it wasn’t for my overconfidence in the strength of the Sand Sea Guild, you wouldn’t have encountered such an accident.”
“I’m really sorry for making you go through the gates if hell.”
In the conference room, Bai Lixin did not ask Xia Chi and the others to leave.
Now, besides Song Yuantian and his two companions, Xia Chi and the rest were also present.
Upon hearing Song Yuantian’s apology, Xia Chi instantly transformed into a protective dog, “So, it was you who sent my brother to that bullshit copy. And all you have to say is sorry? Do you know how close my brother was to not coming back? Diamond Mountain, Fairy Tale World, how many times did my brother come close to death?!”
“The flash of inspiration” danced more cheerfully.
Under Bai Lixin’s intense gaze, Xia Chi panicked and grabbed the coffee in front of him, chugging it down in one gulp before daring to speak up, “It’s like this…”
“You were trapped in a time cage before, and I missed you, but there was nothing to remind me of you. One day, I accidentally bumped into a girl in the entertainment area and she dropped something from her pocket. She seemed afraid of being recognized, so she didn’t pick it up and ran away.”
