Global Collapse

Chapter 549 I wish your family would be noisy and disturbed by Gu Mian in the middle of the night
So this company invented this thing that's impervious to water and fire and invulnerable to swords and spears?
Toy Goose has been making its presence felt since the very beginning of the global gaming industry, which made Gu Mian want to see what it was all about.

“Speaking of which…” Gu Mian said, putting her hand into her pocket and pulling out a piece of paper about the size of a train ticket. “I also have this.”

[Dungeon Exchange Coupon (One-Time Use)]

You can choose to enter a specific instance and bring your teammates along.

The thing this game player probably regrets most is giving Gu Mian this thing.

He looked at the voucher in his hand and muttered to himself, "Toy Goose Company should be a copy, right? If I write 'Toy Goose Company' on it, I should be able to go in for a visit."

As he was saying this, the teddy bear, which had been pretending to be dead with its butt sticking up high and its face pressed against the ground, suddenly turned its head and looked at Gu Mian with a terrified expression.

It actually moved?

Gu Mian reached out and pinched its neck again, and this time the teddy bear stopped moving, as if it were really dead.

Gu Mian looked at its upturned rear end: "But it seems unnecessary to waste a voucher, since there's a Toy Goose Company in this world..."

You can find it by simply opening your phone and searching for the location of Toy Goose Company.

At this moment, the doll's expression seemed even more terrified.

However, there is no internet here in the middle of nowhere.

“I was careless,” Gu Mian said, pulling up the teddy bear lying on the ground. “I should have searched for the address of Toy Goose Company earlier.”

He dragged his teddy bear forward, intending to find another place to use the internet.

Gu Mian walked quickly, and soon he and the teddy bear disappeared on the dirt road.

Once the two figures had completely disappeared, Huai Xin Zhen Yue slipped out from behind the rickety warehouse door.

He looked in the direction Gu Mian had left, his face full of fear.

"I don't even know if this guy is human. I can't stay here. What if he comes back and finds me?" Huai Xin Zhen Yue thought to herself as she ran in the opposite direction from Gu Mian, and soon disappeared from sight.

It's quite easy to find Wi-Fi to use.

Gu Mian easily got internet access at the entrance of a coffee shop. He held onto the teddy bear's arm with one hand to prevent it from escaping, while swiping his phone screen with the other.

A quick online search for Toy Goose Company revealed that the company has chain stores all over the world, and its presence can be found everywhere.

This city is no exception.

However, the company in this city is not the original Toy Goose Company, but a branch of it, the Toy Goose Food Factory.

The food factory is located not far from Gu Mian.

He estimated that it would take about half an hour by taxi to get there.

Of course, there's one more thing to do before going to the food factory.

Gu Miande retrieved the saw that he had thrown into the room.

He was quick; he retrieved the saw in no time and then flagged down a taxi on the street.

This was a bustling street, with people coming and going. When the taxi driver saw Gu Mian's strange attire, he hesitated for a moment.

The man was wearing a white coat but didn't look like a doctor at all. He had a guitar bag on his back, and even stranger, he was holding a half-burnt teddy bear in his hand, which looked extremely eerie.

Gu Mian was quick-witted and agile.

As soon as the taxi stopped, he opened the door, shoved the bear into the back seat, and then climbed in himself.

"Where to?" The driver looked at the strange man behind him through the rearview mirror.

Gu Mian adjusted the teddy bear's sitting posture: "Let's go to the toy goose food factory."

"It's not a very remote place, otherwise I wouldn't dare to go there," the driver muttered to himself as he started the car.

Meanwhile, Huai Xin Zhen Yue, who had been frightened by Gu Mian, had already moved away from the abandoned warehouse.

He found another secluded place—a cemetery.

If it were any other instance, he would never have come to a place like this. You know, cemeteries are hotspots for paranormal events. Many of the ghost stories he heard as a child took place in cemeteries.

“Anyway, this time we’re hiding from a teddy bear,” Huaixin Zhenyue said, looking at the surrounding graves with a bit of fear in her heart. “We can’t just have some other ghost jump out and kill me, and the bear looking for me would never expect me to be hiding in this place.”

Indeed. Playing hide-and-seek in a cemetery is truly unheard of and unseen.

He found a slightly larger grave to use as cover while taking out his phone, wondering whether he should call the other players to tell them what he had just seen.

After thinking about it, he gave up.

I wonder how many people are still alive. If I call them and a ghost answers, that would be thrilling.

It's almost 3 p.m. now, and the sun will be setting in a few hours.

Huai Xin, trembling, crouched behind the grave and prayed, "I'll be gone in a few hours. Please, ghosts, don't come and take me away..."

Meanwhile, Gu Mian had already arrived at her destination.

It was faster than he had imagined.

The taxi driver seemed unwilling to spend more time with him, and accelerated with all his might, bringing Gu Mian to the entrance of the toy goose food factory in less than twenty minutes.

There were hardly any people at the entrance of his food factory; the gatekeeper sat in the guard booth, half asleep.

Looking through the gate, you can see several tall buildings and a huge warehouse, with three or four large trucks parked at the entrance, apparently for hauling goods.

Gu Mian got out of the car, pulling the teddy bear along, and took a few steps forward.

The drowsy security guard didn't notice anyone approaching. Just as Gu Mian got closer to the gate, she heard a familiar voice coming from inside. The voice was angry, as if someone was arguing and cursing—"May your family disturb Gu Mian in the middle of the night!"

You can faintly hear another voice saying, "How could you be so vicious!"

Gu Mian: "?"

He took a few more steps forward and entered the food factory, where he saw a familiar face; the sincere blessing came from him.

A tall, thin figure walked out, dressed in a black suit—the attire of an office professional. However, he wasn't in the office; instead, he walked to a truck and opened the door, seemingly to haul goods.

The office worker who was hauling goods seemed to notice someone at the door and glanced over casually.

With just a glance, he stopped what he was doing, his mouth agape as if his jaw had dislocated.

Then, a flock of birds were startled by Coach Che's roar: "Gu Mian! What are you doing here?"

Since the death protection mechanism was turned off, the fortune teller hasn't entered any dungeons.

until today.

After the death protection mechanism was turned off, she would spend her energy every morning divining whether it was a good day to enter a dungeon.

But after more than ten days, the answer I received was always that it was not suitable.

until today.

The divination results told her that something good would happen if she entered the dungeon today.

So she made careful preparations and entered the ticket booth to match the instance.

The instance she was matched with was called "A Bizarre Adventure in a Food Processing Plant".

The premise is that players are thrown into a food processing plant as different ingredients, and must outwit the plant's employees to escape.

Food processing plants issue different production tasks at different times, produce different foods, and use different ingredients.

Players have one chance to change the ingredient they represent in the dungeon.

Once the fortune teller enters the instance, she represents the ingredient of tomatoes. When the food factory starts producing food made from tomatoes, she will turn into a tomato and be sent to the food processing belt, which means death.

Tomatoes are a common ingredient that is very unsafe to consume.

Of course, those strange ingredients are not safe either.

The fortune teller witnessed someone change their appearance to resemble a "Cambodian spider."

As a result, the processing plant immediately issued a task to produce "fried Cambodian spiders".

The spider later died a terrible death.

Hello everyone, after a night of frantic efforts to save my drafts, they're temporarily back to life!
