Chapter 5: Disguised Threats

  Even if I have a million unwilling thoughts in my heart, but for this unfamiliar world, if there isn't someone to guide me well, I will definitely live a very awkward life.

  However, I also want to get some benefits for myself, so I will deliberately show off in front of this person named Sai Guan Chen.

  However, in response to my tough attitude, Sai Guangchen just shrugged indifferently and asked me with a provocative expression: "You can choose not to do the task, but if you don't, then forget about going back!"

  Threats, obviously just veiled threats. I'm not deaf to reason. Gnashing my teeth, I turned around and said with a fierce gaze, "Right, you're right, but then again, you won't get any benefits either!"

  If I'm chosen by the other party and they want me to help them with their tasks, then they must have something to gain from it. It's impossible that there would be no benefit for them to summon me to this godforsaken place.

  "Haha...” Sai Guangchen heard me say that, and he couldn't help but laugh happily, the curve of his mouth obviously widening a lot, with a sly glint in his eyes, saying: "What benefits do I need? This is my master who needs you, not me!"

  Uh... his master needs me, not him?

  After hearing another piece of news from him, I became even more suspicious and my expression tensed up a lot. I quickly asked: "Who is your master? And why does he want to be so boring?"

  "You don't have to rush to see him, when the time comes, he will naturally meet you." Said Sai Guanzhen calmly, but his gaze fell on me and gave me a feeling that the corners of his eyes were smiling.

  This smiling tiger always has an air of not wanting to explain clearly, and I suddenly feel that my situation is very tragic. Although he didn't say who the master was, but I started to fantasize unconsciously, maybe it's a old man wearing a black robe with a gloomy face.

  "What are you fantasizing about again? Your facial expression suddenly became so strange?" Sai Guangchen's inquiring gaze fell on me once more, asking in puzzlement.

  Ugh... it's all because my imagination is too rich, so maybe even my expression has gone wrong!

  But I didn't answer foolishly, instead I unfolded a sweet smile that I thought was very sweet and said hypocritically: "Strange... no."

  "But the master is a man who values efficiency, and he's afraid you won't do well, so he specially prepared this for you." Saiguo Chen put on an expression of distrust, but suddenly pulled out a white booklet from his sleeve.

  "What's this?" I looked at the white booklet in Sairen Chen's hand and felt even more puzzled.

  A white-covered notebook, what good content could it have? He wouldn't be bored to the point where he notes down clearly what tasks to do at what time, would he?

  I took over the book and flipped through it.

  After all, I really want to return to the modern world with all my heart, and the only ones who know me happen to have a way to let me in here, so they should also have a way to let me go back.

  So even though I had too many regrets before, my longing to go back is still strong.

  Because the world of human beings has my family, friends, and even my unfinished dreams, I absolutely cannot spend a lifetime here. Since I've come to this place, I must think of a way to return!

  The first task is: Receive the first handsome man, with the additional condition of finding a divine brush.

  Then everything behind was a complete blank. I couldn't help but furrow my brow and shout out loud:

  "What's with this mission book? Not only do I have to collect handsome guys, but there are also additional conditions. Is it that if I recruit a handsome guy and find the divine brush, I can go back?"

  "Your task is definitely not just one, the beautiful man you want to recruit is definitely not just one, it's just that you haven't completed the first task, don't think about seeing the second task." Sai Guanchen raised a finger, shook his head, and began to explain with a pleased expression.

  "Did I really cross over into the game? Looking up at this annoying guy in front of me, I threw up my hands and began to protest: 'Lose a tattered old book and you want me to do a quest? Is that even possible?'"

  "Here." Sai Guangchen handed me another yellow package about the size of a pomelo, his face calm as he said: "This is just some simple props, you can make do with it for now. Once you've earned some money, you can buy something better yourself!"

  I immediately opened the yellow package and took a look. There was a ring with silver inlays all around it, followed by two darts shaped like an "X".

  "Is that all?!" I pointed to the things in the yellow package and started complaining again: "This wristband has no combat power at all, and this... dart, I don't even know how to use it!"

  "If you don't know, then go learn! This wristband isn't for hitting people, are you an idiot? You don't even understand this, it's for summoning handsome guys to do tasks. Got it?" Saiguo Chen put on a very arrogant expression, again with that self-righteous look, really making me want to punch him."

  Ugh, I've always had a bad temper, and from childhood to adulthood, I've only used the best things. How come when I transmigrate into a game, I have to do some miserable tasks? Even if I have to do them, can't they at least give me some decent equipment? With just these two items, he still has the nerve to hand them over, it feels like taking them is equivalent to not taking anything.

  "Is this how you treat a lady from the human world?" I stood with my hands on my hips, looking quite stern, and harshly questioned him.

  I still fantasize that this annoying Sai Guangchen can give himself better equipment, he can already ride the clouds and drive the fog, why would he only give himself two useless things, wanting to mix well in a different world is of course not something that can be done just by thinking about it.

  "Why bother being angry with me, it's better to hurry up and do the task. One hundred and eight handsome men, and you still need to summon different divine beasts. Do you think this is something that can be completed in two or three days?" Sai Guangchen also crossed his arms over his chest, with a look of kind reminder.

  One hundred and eight pretty boys? Summoning divine beasts, what a mess!

  "Looks like someone's coming, you're on your own now. If there's anything you don't understand, just check the task manual. In an emergency, shake this wristband and I'll be right there!" Saiguo Chen suddenly sped up his speech, then rode off on a cloud.

  "Don't run away, let me take you in as a pretty boy!" I raised the armband in my hand and stomped my foot with an expression of discontent.

  But he didn't look back, and in the blink of an eye, he vanished from before my eyes.

  What's going on? No need to gather so many handsome guys and also some divine beasts. Without even saying a word, they just flashed me away!

  "Who are you talking to?" Xiong Xiaotu's voice rang out, and I immediately turned around with a guilty conscience.

  It's better if I don't turn around. As soon as I turned, I accidentally bumped into a rock and my body leaned forward. Just when I thought I was going to fall in a very embarrassing way.

  Xiong Xiaotu supported me in time and locked himself in his arm, then looked at me with a suspicious face.

  Being held by a man like this, and then staring at me with an unblinking gaze, really makes my face feel hot, as if it's been scalded by boiling water, the feeling is so unbearable.

  "I didn't talk to anyone." My voice was low, although he's just a beastman, if he finds out I was talking to a man just now, won't he get the wrong idea?

  I've run into a ghost! Why should I feel guilty? Clearly, he and I have no relationship whatsoever!
