Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

The sleeping Akahoshi was covered in a cold sweat and murmured: "Ayu, don't be afraid."

I suddenly opened my eyes and it was already broad daylight outside.

There was still no sunlight here, and I tried hard to recall everything from my dream.

He and Ayu knew each other since childhood, and he seemed to have forgotten his identity and past memories, even his divine powers.

After a moment of stunned silence, Akahoshi called out 250: "How long were you inside the spatial rift?"

250 hesitated for a moment before saying, "I don't know. The leader was pulled into another world and couldn't get out. He also encountered a strange...person."

Actually, 250 couldn't be sure if it was a person. It fell there and got injured, and that guy took it back and nursed it back to health for a few days.

"What's that person's name?" Akahoshi asked.

250: [Yu Jin, I heard someone calling him that.]

Yu Jin? Chi Xing had no recollection of this name, which meant that he was not from the Heavenly Realm, or perhaps he was not a High God.

Suddenly remembering something, the little black cat jumped up and said, "I saw a person, no, a corpse... no, it was a living dead who looked exactly like His Highness."

[By the way, Yu Jin called that person "husband."]

Akahoshi:?

Did you come back by yourself?

250 shook the cat's head: "After my injuries healed, he used magic to bring me back."

Go and seek the will of Heaven in this world, and thoroughly investigate everything that has happened since I came into this world.

After a pause, Akahoshi added, "[Including things from my childhood.]"

250 accepted the order and contacted the System Bureau to find the contact information for this Heavenly Dao.

250 would never want to leave the place that he could accomplish in the Red Star's sea of ​​consciousness. This place clearly resembled the Western world, yet Chinese-style ghosts and monsters had appeared here.

Not only did Akahoshi notice something was wrong, but even 250 noticed that something crucial must have happened during the time Akahoshi was away.

Chi Xing couldn't recall Yu Jin or the undead who looked like him. It seemed he should find time to return to the Demon King's Palace and ask about this matter.

With the sound shield removed, the sound of several people arguing could be heard coming from the corridor.

"What do you mean I summoned it? Didn't you say you were going to kill that ghost bride?"

"Was I wrong to say that we could only leave by killing her? It was your recklessness that angered her. Otherwise, why would we have stayed here for so many days?"

"Alright, that's enough. Gao Ze and Xu Rui didn't do it on purpose, can't you just let him have his way?"

Another person added, "That's right, Rui Rui was just anxious, she didn't do it on purpose."

Seeing that someone was speaking up for him, Xu Rui lowered his head and said aggrievedly, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I just wanted to save Brother Hao. I really didn't mean to."

At this point, Lin Hao indeed stepped forward to protect Xu Rui behind him, and he faced Gao Ze and said:

"That's enough, Gao Ze. I know you still blame me for being with Rui Rui. I told you, I liked him first, and I only officially got together with him after breaking up with you. If you want to blame someone, blame me, don't take it out on Rui Rui."

After this conversation, Akahoshi figured out the relationships between these people.

Gao Ze was so angry with the group that he gritted his teeth and glared at Lin Hao:

"Why should I be angry that a scumbag and a jerk are together? Besides, I was the one who caught you two kissing, and I was the one who broke up with you."

Lin Hao's face turned bright red after being scolded like that, but what he said was true, and he was speechless for a moment.

Xu Rui stepped forward and faced Gao Ze: "How could you curse like that? It was an accident that time. I was drunk. If you want to curse, curse me, not Brother Hao."

"Heh, drunk? So you were drunk when you were sending flirtatious messages to Lin Hao every day?"

The others stood still without saying a word. They stood with Lin Hao because they thought that with more people, they would have a better chance of getting out.

As for the relationship issues between these three people, that's beyond their control.

Gao Ze continued his tirade, spewing out the most offensive insults possible, successfully bringing Xu Rui to tears.

Lin Hao felt that Gao Ze had gone too far. With that vicious face, he really regretted dating someone like that during his university years.

She reached out to push Gao Ze, but the door next to her opened.

The person who came out looked like a young man, with long white hair tied up high, clear and bright eyes, delicate features, skin like cream, and a pair of big, bright eyes that blinked gently with raven-feather-like eyelashes.

The group of people were stunned and instinctively held their breath.

If they hadn't sensed his living presence, they would have thought they'd bumped into a demon.

Lin Hao's eyes widened in amazement. He gave Akahoshi a standard smile and said gently:

"Sorry, we didn't know there was anyone in this room. We didn't mean to speak at your door."

Akahoshi nodded slightly and walked past the group to go downstairs.

"Wait, are you alone?" Lin Hao asked.

Akahoshi nodded again: "Mm."

Another guy in the group spoke up: "What? Why don't you team up with someone? The boss here is really strong, you can't kill it at all."

The others chimed in, "Yeah, why don't you come with us? Once we find the money sword and kill the ghost bride, we can leave the tomb city."

Akahoshi feigned hesitation and looked at the others.

The team consisted of seven people, all of whom looked like college students, based on what they had just said.

Red Star has determined that this world is not the real world, and the Graveyard City is one of the "game locations".

These people are essentially players.

"Do you know the location of the Money Sword?" Red Star asked.

His voice was clear and pleasant, almost bewitching, and even Gao Ze couldn't help but look at him.

The group was somewhat embarrassed. Gao Ze said, "I don't know yet. We had found some clues, but the ghost bride who angered someone blocked our way here."

"The ghost bride? Is it the one from last night?"

Gao Ze could tell from the room he came out that their windows faced the same direction, and he had also heard the noise last night.

"Yes, don't let her pitiful state fool you, it's said that she's killed quite a few people during the years she's been here."

"She only appears at night, so can't we leave during the day?" Akahoshi asked.

Everyone looked distressed upon hearing this.

Gao Ze: "It's not that simple. A group of people went out before, and their bodies were found at the entrance of the guesthouse at night."

At this point, everyone's faces turned grim.

"These are the rules, don't you know? The only way to leave here is to kill that ghost bride."

These words were spoken by Xu Rui, whose gaze toward Chi Xing was filled with inquiry and a hint of disgust.

Akahisa lowered his eyes, his expression seemingly somewhat sad, and said:

"I forgot some things. I woke up outside this city and only realized something was wrong after I came in."

Lin Hao immediately said, "We also had a hard time accepting it when we first came in. It's okay. From now on, you'll stay with us, and I'll protect you."
