Mistaking a horror game for a romance novel, he unexpectedly became a legend.

On the fourteenth day of the game, Zhao Xin, as the highest-ranking person in the Eris race, had already ordered the return of the starship. Before leaving, he left a letter as the second prince and then disappeared.

With the eldest prince dead, their goal of capturing the merfolk was abandoned. The Eris ship returned to the planet. Because of the accident involving the two princes, the Eris king blamed the people on the same starship and punished everyone for failing to protect the eldest and second princes properly.

During the time all players entered the alternate dimension, the Erisians all withdrew from planet &93478. At this point, the only remaining threats to the planet are the mutated animals and the native inhabitants.

The viewers in the live stream are laughing all the way to the bank.

[My mom is laughing so hard she suspects I have Parkinson's. This Su Lie is definitely out of his mind. The system has given him such a serious warning, how can he still be so stubborn?]

This guy is pretty confident, thinking he's made the right decision.

You know what, Zhao Xin has a bit of a mystical quality about him, I like him.

Ahhh, have you seen Song Yi? He's so cute right now!

【Xiah is truly the most beautiful person I've ever seen. Sending you love!】

The live stream of this game had a huge audience, several times that of the dating show next door. Horror games have been rampant lately, and once Song Yi comes out of the game, he's determined to show off to that little firecracker Tao Tao.

As for those players who chose the Eris race in the game, Horror Game felt that he had done more than enough. These people were all of a high level, yet they were still so naive. He had already reminded them so much, but they still didn't change their choice.

However, if those players heard this, they would definitely curse horror games three thousand times a day. You are the one who is cunning and has done a lot of things to mislead players with hints before. Now you are pretending to be a good person.

The second half of the game has begun, and there are currently 41 active players.

During the fifteen days that players were offline, Bell's ambitions exploded. He used his previously accumulated wealth to build an army, capturing mutated animals on the ground to control and use as his weapons, while also hunting down Sia in the ocean.

After Lu Xiao returned to the game, the enemy changed from the Eris to Bell.

The departure of the Erisians gave Bell a great opportunity. He had previously researched a device that could detect traces of merfolk in the deep sea in order to capture them. He thought the Erisians would take Sia with them, but one day the device for capturing merfolk was discovered.

When Bell saw the device light up, he was so excited he was practically going crazy.

On land, at a military base.

The newly appointed chief of staff looked worried.

What are your thoughts on Bear Grylls' recent actions?

Lu Xiao, Xiao Bai, Bai Ning, and Rong Le stood together and looked at each other. Although half a month had passed, it was as if they had just arrived and they didn't quite understand what had happened.

The group listened quietly to the discussion, and after about half an hour, Lu Xiao had roughly figured out the clues and his train of thought.

Simply put, Bear Grylls wants to take advantage of the chaos to become king of this planet.

Bell spent a large portion of his wealth on weapons. The regular army's weapons were not as advanced as Bell's, and they were at a disadvantage in both of their encounters with Bell.

The chief looked worried, and the people in the room discussed it back and forth, but no one could offer any useful advice.

When everyone was silent, Lu Xiao suddenly said:

"Commander-in-Chief, I have a proposal."

The chief of staff looked at Lu Xiao, a mid-level soldier. He didn't have high hopes, but still let Lu Xiao speak:

"What do you think."

Lu Xiao said:

"My lord, I think we can cooperate with the merfolk."

Everyone in the room thought Lu Xiao would come up with some good suggestions, but it turned out to be a collaboration with the merfolk?

"What a joke, what's the point of cooperating with merfolk?"

"Yes, what can the merfolk do to help us?"

"If merfolk were so powerful, they wouldn't have been captured by Bell in the first place."

The chief of staff looked anxious, clearly sharing the same thoughts as everyone else.

Lu Xiao was not in a hurry, but slowly spoke:

"Many of you here have seen the giant octopus at the marine base, haven't you?"

Mentioning that octopus made everyone's faces change. Thinking of its enormous size and astonishing fighting power, everyone still felt lingering fear.

It's just that this octopus hasn't caused any trouble for so long; otherwise, they would have been in a terrible state, having to deal with both Bell and this giant octopus.

Rong Le helped Lu Xiao strike up a conversation:

"I've seen it. That octopus is huge and incredibly powerful. Our weapons couldn't do any damage to it at all."

Lu Xiao nodded.

Chief: "I know about that octopus. What does that have to do with the merfolk?"

Lu Xiao: "That octopus and the merman are good friends."

After Lu Xiao finished speaking, the room fell silent for a moment, then someone burst out laughing, followed by waves of laughter.

"What nonsense are you spouting? Octopuses and merfolk are friends? How do you know that?"

"You don't think that just because we live in the sea, we're necessarily on the same side, do you?"

"Lu Xiao, stop talking nonsense."

Lu Xiao calmly said:

“I once went down to the sixth level of the ocean base and saw with my own eyes that the merfolk and the giant octopus got along very well. I also learned that the merfolk can purify the ocean. The source of the mutated animals on our planet is that mysterious substances fell into the ocean. If we cooperate with the merfolk, we can obtain the greatest combat power on the one hand, and solve the problem of the source of the animal mutation on the other hand. Then Bell’s power will be no match for us.”

The room fell silent again, but this time everyone was thinking.

After a long pause, the chief of staff said:

"That sounds great, but we're not the same species, so we can't communicate."

Lu Xiao: "Someone can."

Chief of Staff: "Oh? Who?"

Lu Xiao hadn't been able to contact Zhao Xin since he switched sides, so this was a good opportunity to bring him over.

Lu Xiao: "This person is called Zhao Xin. He can communicate with animals."

Upon hearing Zhao Xin's name, a strange expression suddenly appeared on the Chief of Staff's face:

"Zhao Xin, are you sure it's Zhao Xin?"

Lu Xiao noticed that the Chief of Staff's expression was a bit off. Could it be that the Chief of Staff knew Zhao Xin?

The chief of staff whispered a few words to his personal guard, who then went out and soon returned with a middle-aged man dressed in the same soldier's uniform. Judging from the rank insignia on his shoulder, he was the lowest-ranking.

Two people entered as the door opened. The chief of staff pointed to the people behind the personal guards and asked Lu Xiao:

"You're not talking about him, are you?!"

Lu Xiao looked up and saw that it was Zhao Xin himself. Zhao Xin called out to the chief in the crowd, "Dad, what's wrong?"

Lu Xiao: ? ? ?

Xiao Bai: "Holy crap!"

Bai Ning and Rong Le looked at Zhao Xin speechlessly. Damn, this time there's definitely some kind of mystical power at play.
