I will be a boss in the future world

The castle was cold and empty, dark and gloomy, as if no one lived here. The castle seemed to be forgotten by time, making people feel an unspeakable loneliness and solitude.

The light in the castle was very dim, with only a few weak oil lamps emitting dim light. The bricks on the wall had fallen off, revealing mottled marks. The ground was covered with dust and spider webs, which reminded people of the scenes in horror movies.

The surrounding atmosphere seemed particularly dark and depressing, as if countless pairs of eyes were secretly watching every corner. This feeling was like being in a nightmare, and this castle was the fairy tale world in the nightmare.

"I always feel like this place is like a scene from someone's dream."

Ji Jingxian observed his surroundings and thought, "Many things are impossible to appear in the system. There are too many counterintuitive elements."

Hearing this, Yuying turned around and looked at him, "You saw it too, didn't you?"

"I remember Xiao Qi once told me..."

"The collapsed area in the virtual game may be a consciousness scene illegally constructed by the user, causing the system to collapse."

"Everything here is related to Miss Zhou. Could it be a dream created by her?"

At this moment, Alice suddenly interrupted: "This place is also called the Kingdom of Sorrow!"

"Because everything here is unhappy!"

Yuying squatted down and looked into her innocent eyes, wondering, "Why are you not happy?"

"Because there is no sunlight here, only darkness, and the clocks run backwards."

Alice frowned in grievance, her face looked sad, and she sobbed intermittently, "The queen can't leave the castle, and the princess has no freedom."

"Even baby Ai can't see his mother, boohoo."

"..."

Yuying frowned.

"understood."

Ji Jingxian snapped his fingers, "It means that she is trapped in her own nightmare, so she can't get out."

Yuying looked at him, "Who does she mean? The queen or the princess?"

Ji Jingxian shook his head, "Not sure, we'll know when we meet later."

"But, if this is really the case..."

"The person or thing that trapped her was the key to leaving."

"Ah."

As the two were frowning and thinking, the cat came back.

"You can come in now, meow~"

"The Queen agreed to see you, meow~"

Follow the cat through the long corridor and come to a luxurious hall.

The spacious hall was brightly lit, with a huge crystal chandelier overhead emitting a dazzling light.

Yuying's gaze followed the light to the front, and saw a gorgeously dressed woman sitting on an exquisite red velvet podium. She was wearing a crimson long skirt, the hem of which was folded like waves, sparkling with a delicate luster. The neckline and cuffs of the skirt were embellished with pearls and lace, showing an unparalleled sense of luxury.

Her makeup is delicate and rich, with black eyeliner outlining her deep eyes and bright red lips, like a blooming rose. Her hair is black and shiny, neatly combed and pulled back, revealing her fair forehead. She looks about forty years old, but the years don't seem to have left too many marks on her face. Her skin is smooth and delicate, without any wrinkles, only the slightly upturned crow's feet at the corners of her eyes reveal a hint of mature charm, her elegant posture shows her arrogance and nobility, and her every move carries a compelling aura.

Looking at this so-called "queen", Yu Ying frowned quietly and glanced at Ji Jingxian.

"Not Zhou Manyin."

She lowered her eyes and reminded quietly.

Ji Jingxian nodded imperceptibly and started whispering to Yu Ying in front of the "Queen".

"Although she looks a bit like him, she is much older and not her."

"understood."

If it wasn’t Zhou Manyin, then it was the “person” who trapped her?

"It's you?"

"Where are you from and why do you want to see me?"

The woman spoke lightly, with a hint of majesty in her tone.

"We are looking for Miss Zhou... No, Zhou Manyin."

Yuying met the queen's meaningful gaze and pursed her lips, "We want to take her away from here."

The woman didn't say anything, but a cold aura emanated from her body.

After a moment's silence, she suddenly raised her hand and saw several burly men who looked like guards pushing a man in.

Wu Han!?
