Quick Wear: Everyone knows I am a good person

"Click~"

At that moment, the actor's face seemed to pause for a moment, then quickly turned 180 degrees back, revealing the heavily painted female role mask he had just worn.

"Distinguished guest~"

"Is there any music you'd like to hear?"

The actress stared intently at Lina and asked in a soft, coquettish voice.

Lina: ……

It's over!

What tune is it?

How did she know what tune it was?

She knows absolutely nothing about Chinese opera!

And...should I tell, or not?

As she pondered, the actor's flowing sleeves drew ever closer, as if they were about to pierce her heart, startling Lina into quickly racking her brains.

Dead brain, think fast!

Fortunately, Lina, who had experienced the "Prince's Mansion Grudge" instance before, remembered a name.

"The Palace of Eternal Life!"

Lina said.

I was afraid that if I couldn't say it, I would die.

"Okay, please wait a moment, esteemed guest."

The actor smiled, a hint of smugness in his eyes.

On the third floor, the young lady looked at Ric in the lobby and tossed him a handkerchief.

Soon, Ric froze on the spot, his face instantly smeared with rouge and powder, painted with makeup, and dressed in a costume. His role was—

The painted-face role, the treacherous minister Yang Guozhong.

At the same time, Lina was also immobilized, her face painted, and dressed in costume; her role was—

New Year's Day, Yang Guifei.

The actors, half-hidden behind the curtain, wrapped the two figures in crimson water sleeves, manipulating them onto the stage. The gongs and drums sounded again, and the song began to play...

Ding~

Player Lina has died... Player Ric has died. Current number of surviving players: 12.

Upon seeing this, Xu Xia was truly shocked, and a cold sweat broke out on her back.

The rest of your life!

She was so close to dying!

She got it.

Just now, Shu Jiao asked her to throw gold, which was to calculate the amount of money that everyone threw, the most and the least. Now they have all gone on stage and become part of the opera house.

Damn rules!

Although it's real, it's incomplete and doesn't remind you to pay attention to the tipping amount at all!

Isn't this obviously a scam?

[Player Channel:]

[Xu Xia]: Thank you so much, big boss, for saving my life!

The other players realized what was happening too.

After giving a tip, they were called up on stage, specifically because it was related to the amount of the tip.

But what good does knowing that do?

Shu Jiao knew exactly who gave more and who gave less, even down to the exact amount, because of 003's cheating. What did the other players rely on?

How could they possibly tell who gave how much gold when everyone was throwing it away?

and so……

There are bound to be two unlucky guys who will fall victim to this.

Good guy.

Four people will die at the start, ten will die randomly during the middle, and two more will die here.

Most of them are dead, and they haven't even lived for twelve hours.

The requirement to clear the dungeon is to survive for 24 hours.

No wonder we always get wiped out in this dungeon.

Can this dungeon be played without opening it?

Shu Jiao pondered for a moment, then slowly got up and walked outside.

One of the rules is that you cannot leave your seat while listening to the opera and you must remain quiet, but it doesn't say that you have to follow the rules when listening to this supplementary opera, and each instance will give people time to explore.

and so……

It's free time now.

Shu Jiao began searching through the private booths.

I found nothing.

003 crouched on her shoulder, "Host, the corner of the wall on the right has been smashed."

Corner?

Shu Jiao looked up, flipped her hand and grabbed a hammer, and started smashing it with a "bang, bang".

"Big hammer: eighty; small hammer: forty; eighty, eighty, eighty..."

003. Cheerful voiceover.

"Boom!"

There's a hole in the wall.

Sitting nearby, Xu Xia, trembling with fear at the sound of the wall being smashed, almost thought some eerie creature was about to emerge from within. She gripped her magical artifact tightly, but when she looked up—

Shu Jiao?

Shu Jiao, wielding a sledgehammer and doing renovations?!

"Shu... Boss Shu?"

Xu Xia stammered, her eyes filled with confusion and astonishment.

No?

Dude, what are you up to?

Making such a commotion while watching a play, didn't you break the rules?

Xu Xia subconsciously glanced down at the stage, but the opera "The Palace of Eternal Life" was being performed calmly on stage, and the boss showed no intention of making a move.

Is it time for exploration?

Xu Xia reacted quickly, immediately springing off the chair, picking up a hairpin that had fallen to the ground along with the shattered wall, and presenting it to Shu Jiao with both hands, "Boss, your clue."

"Boss, just let me know if there's anything I need you to do!"

I will be your most loyal servant!

Shu Jiao glanced at her, took the hairpin, and handed it over for appraisal.

[Apricot Blossom Hairpin: The young lady's favorite hairpin in "The Dream of the Mandarin Duck Tower," which seems to be used to open a box on the third floor.]

well.

Treasure hunt game.

Shu Jiao turned and walked towards the stairwell.

Xu Xia thought about it and didn't follow.

Afraid of holding others back, she lowered her head and quietly began searching the room.

I searched but found nothing.

She went out.

Just then, Xu Xia bumped into Shu Jiao, who was returning home. Her eyes lit up. "Big Boss?"

Shu Jiao: "Did you find a wooden plaque with the character 'Song' engraved in your room?"

"No."

Just then, the other players who had realized what was happening and started exploring also went out.

Upon hearing this, someone actually pulled out a wooden plaque. "Boss, I found this in my room. Is this it?"

"Ah."

Shu Jiao glanced at it, "I need this one for the third floor, I can trade with you..."

"Don't talk about exchanging or not exchanging, what you need is yours."

The man readily handed the wooden plaque to Shu Jiao.

Explore the third floor?

He didn't have the guts to confront Miss, the boss of "Mandarin Duck Tower: A Startling Dream".

He'd be asking for death if he went up there; it'd be better to let the big shots do it.

"Thanks."

Shu Jiao was about to leave with the wooden plaque when she heard another person say, "Boss, we found a jade pendant in my room. The appraisal said it's for opening a door on the third floor, but we don't know what kind of door it is."

"I found a sachet in my room..."

All six tokens ended up in Shu Jiao's hands.

The Chinese players all looked at Shu Jiao as if she were their savior, saying, "Boss, be careful!"

"Boss, you have to be careful."

"Boss..."

Shu Jiao: ...

Stop giving yourself too much screen time.

"gone."

Shu Jiao turned and walked upstairs, saying, "You all go back to your rooms, follow the rules, and stay put."

"understand!"

The players quickly dispersed, their faces beaming with the joy of an imminent easy victory.

If even top players can conquer the S+ dungeon, they'll definitely be able to conquer the "Mandarin Duck Tower: A Dream Interrupted" dungeon too!

They should just wait quietly for the big shots to start the group.

Shu Jiao took the wooden sign and went up to the third floor.

"Da da da~"

Her boots echoed on the wooden stairs, making it seem as if she were in a very open space.

But here, it's clearly just a narrow staircase.

Step by step, floor by floor, the staircase seemed to stretch on forever.

Shu Jiao stopped and looked around. Apart from the lights on the walls and the flowers in the potted plants in the corner, there was nothing else on the entire staircase.

She pinched the flower off.

no change.

Then he blew out the light.

As the candlelight flickered and the shadows danced, a large, ornately carved door slowly opened.
