Quick Transmigration: Survive to the End

Just as the guards were about to lead the players to their respective rooms, the main gate of the castle opened, and a smartly dressed, haughty lady emerged—the head maid who had just been beside Yin Yin.

“Your Excellency, Captain,” the head maid approached the blond, blue-eyed man and whispered a few words to him behind the cover of her sandalwood, openwork folding fan.

"Boss," the fat man said, having placed talismans on the three of them so they could communicate freely without being seen as making a fuss, "who is that woman? We haven't heard of her in our reports."

"But this instance is really strange. They didn't even give us a heads-up before pulling us in. Luckily, this instance doesn't seem to take long. If it's a whole night, it'll only take about ten minutes in real life. When Master asks me, I'll just say I went to the toilet."

“It’s really strange,” Yan’er said, looking at Xie Yong. “I think most of the others are trying to take a gamble. Although failing will waste a chance to escape, if they succeed and take what’s inside, the benefits they can enjoy will be much greater than this chance to escape.”

Yan'er's meaning was clear: she wanted to take a gamble. Although she was here on official business, whether she could survive, and how she would survive, depended on herself.

"Let's observe first and not make a scene," Xie Yong said calmly. "Ejecting won't take anything from the instance. If I'm not mistaken, only by successfully leaving here can we truly obtain what we want."

"And according to the captain of the guard, we can leave when the snow stops tomorrow morning. That is, the castle gates will reopen and the drawbridge will be lowered."

“If that’s the case, we really have to be patient and wait,” the fat old man said with a smile, his eyes full of calm. “You must not be in a hurry, or you’ll end up losing both your wife and your army.”

Yan'er glanced at him but didn't refute him. Although she usually seemed to have the upper hand, when it came to patience and adaptability, her quick temper was no match for Old Fatty, who had been meditating and practicing martial arts since childhood.

Having made up their minds, they heard the captain of the guard order his men to take them to a temporarily set-off room, while he hurriedly followed the woman into the castle.

After they went inside, they immediately closed the main gate of the castle. One of the players couldn't help but ask, "Why is the door closed? Aren't we going in?"

The guard gave them a strange look: "Who are you? It's already a favor that you're allowed to stay in the annex, yet you still want to enter the main building?"

Fatty, relying on the talisman, chuckled: "This guard is quite the smooth talker, his taunting skills are off the charts!"

Yan'er also curled her lips and reminded Old Fatty, "You'd better pray that what you want isn't in the main building."

The fat man was taken aback for a moment: "You know what, you really do know. The stuff in the main building is definitely better!"

Xie Yong looked up at the tall tower above the main building.

Yinyin had almost returned from the window and sat down on a chair inside the room.

The head maid led the head guard in from outside. After bowing, the head guard said, "Your Highness, these guests have not yet been screened. If you would like new toys, please allow me to screen them before bringing them to you."

Yin Yin didn't want to expose herself among so many players. After all, compared to other players, she had the profession of an actress, and if she wasn't careful, she could easily be recognized.

Moreover, if she rashly insisted on bringing Xie Yong and the others along, it might attract the attention of the head maid and the head guard, just like what happened with Sister Qing last time. After all, she hadn't communicated with them beforehand this time.

"Then forget it," Yin Yin decided to observe more carefully. "It's late, and I'm sleepy. If we're meant to be, let's talk about it tomorrow morning."

The head guard breathed a sigh of relief and withdrew. The head maid originally wanted to stay a little longer, but seeing that Yin Yin looked tired, she quickly led a group of maids to change her into a silk nightgown before retreating outside.

The door closed, and the room fell silent.

Yinyin's pajama pockets were empty. She sat up, wondering where her phone was, and reached out with her left hand to touch something familiar.

She raised an eyebrow.

Yinyin's phone still had no internet connection, but she still tried opening the app, switching to that mysterious account, and opening the live stream interface. Just as she expected, the app was unaffected by the network, and the first live stream recommended to her was [Castle: Greedy Visitor].

Yinyin clicked directly into the chat and saw the players checking in.

As members of the same team, Xie Yong and his two companions requested a suite with three rooms, just enough for each of them.

Comments scrolled across the screen.

[When I saw their team enter the castle, I thought it was some kind of four-day, three-night murder mystery game, but I didn't expect it to be here.]

[What's going on here? Don't just leave things unsaid!]

[What's there to say? This castle is the safest dungeon. It randomly recruits players; as long as you follow the rules, you can clear it.]

[What if we don't follow the rules?]

[Of course it is! What else could it be? Are you blind enough to not see the guards' knives?]

[It's not that I didn't see them, it's just that these people aren't afraid of the guards at all, are they?]

[That's exactly what we want – they're not afraid. This castle is very close to the Holy Mage Tower, you can judge for yourself!]

[Wow, I know which castle you're talking about! I'm so jealous, I haven't even been there yet, how can I possibly have any prey to choose from!]

The barrage of comments that followed were all lemon emojis, along with one sincere comment.

[Are you not going because you don't want to go? (doge emoji)]

[That was painful!]

Yinyin thought for a moment and sent a comment: [Which castle? Don't be a riddle reader!]

Sure enough, someone replied to her immediately.

[Are you faking it? That's Her Majesty the Queen's private residence, it's so famous, how could anyone not know it?]

It's Her Majesty the Queen again.

Just as Yinyin was about to send another comment, she saw someone refuting what the previous person had said.

[This is no longer Her Majesty's residence; it's already ******]

The second half was directly censored, and Yin Yin rolled her eyes—of course, at the app.

It's either watchable or completely unwatchable; what's the point of only showing half?

Yinyin took a deep breath and turned her attention back to the live stream from the comments. She noticed that some players had already started to take action and were hoarding things in the side building.

Just as they were in the room, holding their belongings and seeing the displayed data, their faces flushed with excitement, a guard kicked open their door.

Faced with their fear and sophistry, the guards did not engage in any further argument with them.

The blade was drawn, screams rang out, and the greedy man's night of terror began.
