I was leaning outside the hotel replying to Baijun's message when I heard subtle footsteps approaching, followed by a soft female voice.

"Ahem...Excuse me...Is this the Huiguang Hotel? Ahem! Ahem...Ahem—"

The violent and rapid coughing made people tremble. Bai Yunsheng raised his head and met the woman's gray eyes.

The woman's skin was very white, but it was not the jade-like white that comes from abundant energy and blood. Instead, it was the bloodless grayish white that came from long-term illness and overdrawing her body to the limit.

His cheeks were sunken, with only a thin layer of skin clinging to his bones, making his eye sockets appear deep and dark. His normally pitch-black eyeballs seemed shrouded in a thin layer of mist, giving them a cloudy gray hue. His hair, coiled at the back of his head, was jet black, but a few strands of gray had appeared at his temples.

He looked to be in his early twenties, but he was strangely shrouded in a decaying aura of impending death.

Bai Yunsheng stepped aside a few steps, looked at the woman's sick and tired face, and declined politely: "I'm sorry, I don't know either. I can't read."

The woman's gray eyes blinked stiffly twice and she opened her mouth, "Sorry... to bother you... Thank you."

Her voice was as thin as a mosquito and intermittent, and it seemed that every word she spoke exhausted her great strength. Her weak and half-dead words were accompanied by gasps for breath.

After thanking him, she silently dragged the huge suitcase behind her and staggered into the hotel in front of her.

The suitcase was half the size of a woman, its wheels screeching as they dragged along the ground, seemingly heavy. Bai Yunsheng glanced at it and quickly averted his gaze, leaning against the wall as he continued to text Bai Jun.

No. 7 Snow Girl Bai Yunsheng: You're saying the system isn't targeting me, are you? Where are my teammates? Why have they been seeing ghosts for so long?

Bai Jun's dialog box continued to show that the other party was typing, but Bai Yunsheng did not receive any message.

No.7 Snow Girl Bai Yunsheng: Did you send me a message? Why are you typing all the time?

After this message was sent, Bai Jun’s message finally popped up.

The moment he saw it clearly, Bai Yunsheng's hair stood on end and his scalp went numb.

[No. 10 Fraudster Baijun: The three of them are in the town, pretending to be locals. However, the town never sees any tourists, and there's no inn like the one you mentioned. The town they're in isn't very large, and it takes less than two hours to explore the entire area. So, the three of them quickly gathered on the way, but they didn't see you after searching the entire town. Furthermore, they all tried to contact you, but all their attempts fell on deaf ears.]

[No.10 Fraudster Baijun: Are you sure you're really a small town tourist?]

Bai Yunsheng: “…”

Oh no, there was a single-player game in the team mission.

Who are you, who am I? Is this still the same fairy tale world? Where did I get to be alone?

There is something fishy going on in the team mission. Request to terminate the mission.

[No.7 Snow Girl Bai Yunsheng: I'm not sure if it's still useful now.]

[No. 10 Swindler Baijun: Useless. But being able to enjoy exclusive VIP treatment in the same mission world, experience a completely different and special environment, and enjoy the peaceful life without teammates in team missions, you've earned a lot.]

Bai Yunsheng: ???

Bai Yunsheng wanted to strangle Bai Jun to death through the screen.

If this kind of treatment were given in a normal team mission, the experience would be absolutely amazing.

After all, the team dynamic in Dawn's Abyss is that having teammates is worse than having none. Teammates may not necessarily lend a hand in times of crisis, but they will certainly add insult to injury. When there's no danger, teammates can be the biggest danger. And when there's danger, teammates are the first to rush ahead, and whoever runs slower suffers.

But not this time!

Finally, there are normal people in this team mission! This time, there are normal teammates!

I thought I could finally experience the care of humanity and the harmony and friendship of my teammates, but the system threw me into a spooky and desolate place, and I was inexplicably forced to fight alone. Only a fool would want this kind of VIP experience.

No.7 Snow Girl Bai Yunsheng: Yeah, it's really nice to be able to enjoy individual treatment in a team mission, hahahaha.

[No.7 Snow Girl Bai Yunsheng: But I'm still more envious of you. Even on a randomly assigned group mission like this, you're still able to meet so many familiar people. I'm sure you've enjoyed a lot of love and care from your teammates through the team treatment, right?]
