Pretty Fool's Live Clearance in Infinite World

[Ding——Player Lin Qi, please draw a copy.]

The boy looked left and right, thought for a long time, and drew the middle card.

[Ding—Congratulations to the player for winning the dungeon "Village in the Clouds"]

The boy was a little confused, and before he could say anything, the system broadcast voice sounded.

[Players please prepare yourself, heading to the dungeon "Cloud Village"]

As a white light flashed before his eyes, the boy slowly lost consciousness...

[Ding—the copy plot is loading.]

In this world, there is a clear dividing line between the ocean and the land. On this dividing line exists a small village. No one knows how it came into being. It suddenly appeared on this beach one day.

No one knows what this village is called, but because every day after 12:30 PM, layers of cloud-like material would float on the beach, everyone called it Cloud Village.

No one knows how the residents on the shore came here. This place seems isolated from the outside world. People inside can't leave, and people outside can't come in.

The seabed and the land seemed to be separated by an invisible thread. Only when the "clouds" appeared was the invisible thread retracted by God.

[But every time the constraints disappear, invisible dangers from the seabed may also follow...]

[Player Lin Qi, please be prepared. The dungeon is officially open.]

[Instance Name: "Village in the Clouds" — Human-Based]

......

It was noon, the sun was high in the sky, casting thousands of rays of light. The bright and warm sunlight was like a golden veil gently covering the endless golden beach.

A breeze blew by, and ripples appeared on the sea surface, like countless dazzling diamonds shining.

Suddenly, there seemed to be a strange movement on the originally calm surface of the beach.

Looking closely, one can see an unidentified object lying there. Due to the distance, it's difficult to see its exact shape, but from a distance, one can vaguely see a sparkling blue with a hint of white.

At this moment, the young man with a delicate appearance like a porcelain doll slowly woke up.

His consciousness was still in a state of chaos. He only felt his throat was dry and unbearable, as if his whole body was about to be swallowed by thirst. A terrifying feeling of being about to dry up to death arose spontaneously.

The boy's eyelids trembled slightly, and his thick and long eyelashes also trembled slightly. Then he tried hard to slowly open his eyes.

However, what came into view was a dark and hazy scene, which made it impossible for him to tell where he was.

However, I could clearly hear the clear and melodious singing of birds and the sound of waves hitting the shore.

A wave of panic surged in Lin Qi's heart. He tried to move his body to see the surrounding environment clearly and figure out where he was.

But at this moment, his whole body was limp and he had no strength at all. Even moving his fingers slightly was extremely difficult, let alone getting up to check.

[System?] Fear gradually filled Lin Qi's heart. With a bit of timidity, he softly called out to the system in his heart.

[I'm here.] The system responded promptly.

It quietly watched the young man lying on the beach, struggling to get up, and finally couldn't help but remind him, "You are seriously exhausted now. You probably don't have the energy to move for the time being. You should just lie here and rest for a while."

As soon as the system finished speaking, the system broadcast sounded.

[Ding—Now publishing player character backgrounds.]

[You are a little blue and white mermaid at the bottom of the sea. Suddenly one day, you are unfortunately washed ashore.]

[Ding—Story loading completed.]

[Main quest: Please explore on your own.]

Side quest: Please get water as soon as possible to avoid becoming a dried fish. 】

After listening to the introduction of the system, Lin Qi was stunned.

So, I'm not a human now?

Lin Qi now raised his head anxiously, but he couldn't lift it up at all. That would have been fine, but he felt like there was a lot of sand on his face, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

[Yes.] The system replied calmly.

What is this? What kind of quest do I need to explore on my own? And what's wrong with me now?

The boy tried hard to get up, but he had no strength at all. Finally, he gave up and lay on the beach to enjoy the sunshine.

Lin Qi felt that if he were a plant, he would definitely grow well!

Just like that, the little mermaid lay quietly on the beach, and time seemed to have stopped, passing extremely slowly.

Finally, Lin Qi couldn't help it and decided to try if there were any props that could help him.

At this moment, a sudden noise reached Lin Qi's ears. It was the sound of children playing in groups of three or four, coming from far away and then getting closer.

"Huh? What is this?" A childish voice full of curiosity sounded first.

Then another child shouted excitedly: "Wow! Is this a fish tail? It's such a big fish tail!!"

Hearing these words, Lin Qi's heart tightened, realizing that someone was approaching.

He tried his best to raise his head to see what was going on, but no matter how hard he tried, his head felt like it was being weighed down by a heavy burden and he couldn't move it at all.

"Is he dead? Look, his hair is white! So beautiful!" one of the children said in surprise.

"Yes, yes! The clothes he wears are so special, so thin, like gauze, and they sparkle!" another child echoed.

Then, a braver child slowly approached Lin Qi, poked his back lightly with his finger, and shouted, "Hey! Are you still alive?"

Lin Qi was extremely anxious and wanted to respond to the child and tell them that he was still alive.

But when he opened his mouth, he was shocked to find that he could not speak any human language! He could only make some vague whimpering sounds from his throat.

"Hmm...eh..." Lin Qi was filled with fear and confusion. He didn't understand why such a situation suddenly occurred.

So, he eagerly questioned the system in his mind: [What the hell is going on!!!]

[Well, you are a mermaid...so you may have some difficulty speaking human language...] The system said guiltily.

Lin Qi: !!?

After Lin Qi received the news, he digested it after a while, so he could only whimper to let these children know that he was alive.

"Hey! Les! He's alive!" One of the children said to a little boy with blond hair and golden eyes next to him.

When the little boy heard this, he raised his eyelids slightly, glanced at Lin Qi, and slowly walked over.
