Don't pretend, everyone knows you're the villain!

As soon as Shen Yi came down the stairs, he fired a shot at the receptionist. The receptionist heard the gunshot, kicked away her chair, and crouched down, dodging the bullet.

Lu Tiannan chuckled and said, "Your aim isn't very good; you need to practice more."

Before he could finish speaking, he was sent flying. Only then did Gu Junbai realize that Lu Tiannan's speed was astonishing.

A lazy voice came from not far away: "Brother, wait for me to find you a target to practice shooting on."

Lu Tiannan's dagger swiftly and accurately stabbed at the NPC at the front desk.

Clearly, the NPCs weren't willing to die so inexplicably on the first day. They managed to keep their minds active while dodging daggers and flying kicks.

The NPC mechanically asked, "Hello, guest, is there anything you're unhappy about?"

"What if I'm not happy with your presence? You're affecting my chances of passing the test." Lu Tiannan chuckled maliciously.

The spider dagger flashed, leaving afterimages and bloodstains all over the NPC's body, the sharp blade slicing through clothes and flesh.

The NPC screamed in agony, and the sound echoed throughout the entire hotel building.

Lu Tiannan looked at Shen Yi and saw that the other person was looking at him, and the expression seemed to suggest that he wanted to end this quickly.

Lu Tiannan, unusually feeling pressed for time, raised his dagger and stabbed it into the NPC's heart.

"I'll give you a quick death so you can go berserk sooner."

The NPCs' rampage is just as troublesome as the original storyline, but Lu Tiannan is not in the same state as in the original storyline.

Despite being pressed for time, Lu Tiannan relied solely on his own abilities this time, without using his talent.

The rampaging NPCs have ridiculously high buffs, but Lu Tiannan is confident enough to handle the attacks with ease and find weaknesses to exploit in the battle.

After hundreds of rounds, even the NPC's high defense couldn't hide their miserable state. They were covered in wounds, and the wounds were bleeding uncontrollably.

The NPC was breathing heavily, still aware of the pain. His hatred for Lu Tiannan was soaring, and his eyes were almost bulging out of their sockets.

"Those hateful eyes." After saying that, Lu Tiannan raised his hand to stab with his dagger to deliver the final blow. The NPC suddenly rammed into Lu Tiannan with great force, and long spikes appeared on his back.

Shen Yi, who was watching, narrowed his eyes as flames ignited on the NPC's clothes, even burning the spider dagger.

The long spikes were blocked by the flames, and Lu Tiannan smiled knowingly.

He kicked with his long leg while striking with his elbow, and finally stomped on the NPC to stab him with the spider dagger.

The NPC is completely dead.

Lu Tiannan picked up the corpse and waved it in his hand. "Brother, do you want a target?"

"..."

Seeing that Shen Yi ignored him, Lu Tiannan disdainfully tossed the corpse aside. He then casually put away his dagger and walked towards Shen Yi, his eyes sparkling as he begged for praise.

"Brother, am I good?"

Shen Yi's tone was indifferent, but her words were enough to make Lu Tiannan happy.

"sharp."

Lu Tiannan couldn't help but smirk as he recalled how Shen Yi had remotely manipulated the flames to provide him with a defensive barrier and amplify the flames.

"My brother and I have a great team. I wish I had met him sooner."

Gu Junbai had witnessed the flames around Lu Tiannan, but he never imagined that Shen Yi was controlling them.

These two are strange. They entered the dungeon together, but their conversations give the impression that they only recently got together.

Moreover, neither of them concealed their relationship, but Lu Tiannan was the one who kept pursuing her, while Shen Yi remained indifferent throughout.

Hearing the commotion, Feng Tianlan and the other two also came downstairs. They rushed downstairs and saw the NPC lying dead to the side. The three of them stared in disbelief.

Lu Tiannan asked Shen Yi in a low voice with a smile as he took the room key.

"Brother, something feels off. Why are you so sure I can kill the receptionist? You're so certain... as if you've witnessed it with your own eyes."

Shen Yi spoke coldly, but her words made Lu Tiannan frown and ponder.

“Last time you did this all by yourself, but you bit me after you killed someone. I don’t want to give you the chance to bite me this time.”

In just a few seconds, Lu Tiannan relaxed his brows and let out a soft laugh.

"It's a bit of a pity, being able to bite my brother would be very tempting for me."

"Wolf cub."

Lu Tiannan's eyes crinkled with laughter, and the corners of his mouth turned up in a very pleasant smile.

"I'm a good puppy with my brother. Woof~"

Once everyone had their room keys for the fourth floor, they arrived at the fourth floor, where Lu Tiannan kicked the iron railings away.

Feng Tianlan shrank back behind Gu Junbai.

Although it's unclear what happened, it seems that Gu Junbai has reached an agreement with the two leading figures.

They discovered it in room 301 and even created a small group chat for it, but nobody said a word.

Just as they expected, the room on the fourth floor was the key to passing the level.

Feng Tianlan exclaimed in surprise as soon as he returned to the lobby after leaving the instance.

He held the item he had obtained to clear the level with great satisfaction.

"Frog Fun, Brother Gu, please invite me again next time there's something good like this. I was only in for half a day before I came out."

That's right. From other people's perspective, it's all reset time; they enter the dungeon one minute and leave the next.

According to Gu Junbai's experiment, people in the rest room did not feel that they had been away for a long time; it was just the normal time for entering a dungeon.

"..." Gu Junbo ignored him and looked at Shen Yi.

Shen Yi nodded to him and then left the hall with Lu Tiannan, heading downstairs to return to the lounge.

Qi Rang watched the two figures walk away, and observing Gu Junbai's expression, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother Gu, who are they?"

Gu Junbo didn't explain, "Qi Rang, don't rush into the dungeon, practice your courage first."

"Huh? Oh..." Qi Rang scratched the back of his head. Although he didn't understand why Gu Junbai said that, he didn't question it and agreed directly because of Gu Junbai's authority.

As soon as Lu Tiannan returned to the room, he cornered Shen Yi against the wall, his eyes dark and dangerous.

"Brother... Gu Junbai's talent is reset? You all conspired to deceive me and used me as a pawn!"

"I didn't hide anything." Xi Mingzhu raised his eyes coldly. If he wanted to hide something, he wouldn't have brought up the biting incident.

After the reset, he was indeed unaware of these things; he had simply instructed the messenger to ignore the existence of the bug 0561 beside him when relaying the message before the reset.

They reset it, but the system doesn't reset it.

With 0561 by his side, Xi Mingzhu's reset was utterly pointless.

That's why I encouraged Lu Tiannan to kill NPCs from the beginning, so he didn't take the detours that followed.

Lu Tiannan pinched Shen Yi's chin, but without using force.

"Okay, no more hiding it. So what about me being used as a pawn?"

"You said I could take advantage of you."

Lu Tiannan squinted. Could he be used? It seems a lot happened before the reset. Interesting.

It's a bit of a shame that the memories were reset.

I saw the talent that could be reset when I opened the talent box, but I never imagined it could be done to this extent.

Gu Junbai has acquired a great talent.

But why wasn't Shen Yi reset? It seems that Gu Junbai was talking to Shen Yi from the very beginning of their collaboration.

It's really unpleasant to be treated as an outsider without even realizing it.

Lu Tiannan's thumb brushed heavily against the corner of Shen Yi's lips.

"Being used by my brother—of course I'd be willing. But being used by others really annoys me."

Xi Mingzhu slapped Lu Tiannan's arm away.

Lu Tiannan raised an eyebrow and slowly withdrew his hand.

"I thought my brother's germaphobia wasn't directed at me. He's already bitten me, why is he making a fuss about this?"

Xi Mingzhu also realized that he had been too lenient with Lu Tiannan's touch. At first, he would dodge even if he was touched, but now he was being hugged and touched by the person in front of him several times.

This person even rubbed the blood all over his body onto his white clothes...

Could it be that you really get used to it if you touch it too much?

Xi Mingzhu said coldly, "The room card is compensation, and we're even. If you overstep your bounds again, I won't be polite."
