There Must Be Something Wrong With This Game!

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

He was using sleep mode, so while only two hours had passed in the real world, two full days had gone by in the game.

During those two days, Duan Fei didn’t have much to do.

After all, he wasn’t familiar with Radiant City. His greatest contribution was simply providing Yan Yuan each day, leaving the rest of the work to the Doctor Beaks.

And it had to be said, this group of doctors was truly top-notch.

After discovering that Yan Yuan’s blood had curative properties, they worked tirelessly to save people. Then, they drew blood from those they had saved and began experimenting on themselves.

They diluted the patients’ blood and injected it into doctors with matching blood types. Afterward, they would come into contact with the patients’ skin, sweat, and vomit to see if they would get infected.

It sounded disgusting, but the Doctor Beaks were meticulous, treating the task as a solemn and sacred duty.

A noble act remains noble, no matter how dirty it may appear on the surface.

Once they confirmed they couldn’t be infected, the remaining healthy individuals were the first to be injected with the antibody-rich blood. The rest of the populace was isolated and treated differently based on the severity of their symptoms.

Nearly thirty percent of the people still died, but the plague—which should have wiped out the entire city—was slowly brought under control. Yan Yuan’s contribution had been indispensable.

"I’m just now realizing how useful you are," Duan Fei remarked with a sigh.

"Of course. And whose pet do you think I am?"

"Quite the mouth on you, too!"

"Shh, I’m getting a really good feeling! Ah, I leveled up."

A cascade of white light erupted from Yan Yuan’s body. The Phoenix couldn’t help but spiral into the air, only to bump its head on the ceiling with an "Oof!" and tumble back down.

"How many times does that make now? And don’t you think your level-up effects are a little over the top?" Duan Fei asked, perplexed.

"Just call me flamboyant," Yan Yuan said, rubbing its little head.

"Besides, how are you able to level up? You haven’t really done anything lately."

"...Well, I have a theory. It’s just a theory, mind you. Could it be the Heart-devouring Worms?"

Yan Yuan’s words gave Duan Fei an idea.

For the past few days, Yan Yuan had been leveling up daily.

If a pet’s Level couldn’t exceed its master’s, it would have already soared through the roof.

The excess experience was stored, allowing it to continue leveling up as soon as its master did.

Yan Yuan, now at Level 10, had Five-dimensional Attributes that looked like this:

"Power: 6

Constitution: 5

Agility: 13

Reaction: 15

Spirit: 26"

Among its Skills, Magic Bullet had also reached Great Success. In addition to the bullet limit increasing to eleven, each bullet now applied the effect of Demon Eye and had a high chance of inflicting the target with a status ailment.

With this Skill, Yan Yuan’s support capabilities were enhanced even further.

Normally, pets leveled up by accompanying their master into dungeons and receiving a share of the experience upon completion.

Event dungeons, however, seemed to operate by different rules. ’This development team is all over the place,’ Duan Fei thought.

It now seemed that Yan Yuan was leveling up because of the Heart-devouring Worms.

The plague wasn’t a result of the Heart-devouring Worms dying, but of them changing their form and becoming much smaller.

However, one of Yan Yuan’s Skills was [Flesh and Blood Elixir] (Master). Because it was at the Master Level, its flesh and blood could destroy these Heart-devouring Worms, which in turn raised its Level.

Duan Fei checked Yan Yuan’s experience pool and nodded.

’Good. At this rate, Yan Yuan won’t need a share of my experience before Level 20.’

’You really are a mature pet, already earning your own experience.’

Watching Duan Fei, Yan Yuan said with a sigh, "Master, why do I have a bad feeling about the look on your face right now?"

"I’m a skeleton! How can you even tell what my expression is?"

"Just kidding! Master, I am completely devoted to you. There’s no one in this world who understands you better than I do!"

"Is that so?"

The sudden voice made Yan Yuan jump and caused Duan Fei to whip his head around in surprise.

Then, someone threw themself into his arms and shouted happily, "Duan Someone, I found you! Huh? How did you turn into a skeleton? Oh, well, it doesn’t matter."

Looking at the tattered-clothed visitor in his arms, Duan Fei also exclaimed in surprise, "Jinghong! You’re in this instance too!"

"That’s right. Surprised?"

Jinghong snuggled triumphantly against Duan Fei’s chest, taking the opportunity to press herself even closer.

Behind her, Lone Ranger and the others stared at Jinghong as if she were a Monster.

"No way... No way! She actually found him!"

"Incredible. How did this happen? How can he just be here because she said so? That’s impossible!"

"Calm down. It’s just simple probability. Assuming there are ten event instances, then the probability of being in the same Ben is one-tenth. It’s no big deal."

"That’s easy for you to say, but seeing it in person is terrifying. Thank goodness I never got on that woman’s bad side. She’s frightening."

"I think the scarier part is that she was certain Duan Someone was here before she even saw him, then just sprinted over and found his exact location. What is with that woman?!"

But regardless, seeing Duan Fei was incredibly reassuring.

Even Lone Ranger had to admit that with Duan Fei here, this run was in the bag.
