Chapter 107: Chapter 102 Nobel Prize

"..."

Xu Yingguang had not intended for his daughter to have any contact with Xiao Yi, but he could never have imagined that the two would meet in this way.

But regretting it now was pointless.

Xu Yingguang had planned to treat this lowest difficulty instance with a casual mindset, but under the current circumstances, that was no longer possible! Because this was a matter involving the life of his own daughter!

The danger level of this lowest difficulty, in Xu Yingguang’s mind, had instantly surpassed that of the previous highest difficulty!

For Xu Yingguang, the most important thing right now was how to ensure his daughter’s safety.

And the only person he could rely on at the moment was Xiao Yi.

So, Xu Yingguang urgently pleaded with Xiao Yi, "Well, anyway, please be very careful to protect her later! Do not let her suffer the slightest harm. As long as you can do this! I assure you! I will do my best to meet your demands!"

"... Ho~" Xiao Yi reacted very calmly, "Since Uncle Xu has said as much, then I will definitely, of course, try my best."

"It’s not about trying your best but ensuring it with all your heart and soul!" Xu Yingguang corrected him, showing urgency in front of everyone for the first time.

"Alright, alright~ I got it."

However, Xu Yingguang could tell that Xiao Yi’s attitude was still rather casual; he probably thought: It’s a bit troublesome, but it should be fine as long as she doesn’t die.

This was unacceptable!

Xu Yingguang immediately began to think about how to make Xiao Yi fully committed to protecting his daughter.

Then, Xu Yingguang immediately thought of a way.

Therefore, he immediately said to Xiao Yi, "If you can ensure Woshi’s safety, my daughter, then I also promise you, I’ll help you clinch the Nobel Prize!"

".......Ah?" The people around Xu Yingguang were dumbstruck when they heard his words.

The Nobel Prize, was that something that could be clinched?

"...!" This approach clearly worked on Xiao Yi, as his eyes suddenly sparkled!

The Nobel Prize! It represented the pinnacle of human intelligence!

It undoubtedly had an absolute allure to Xiao Yi! In fact, Xiao Yi certainly couldn’t refuse!

"Is... is it really true!?" Xiao Yi’s voice trembled.

"Hm." Xu Yingguang’s expression was serious, "I swear on my life, as long as you can protect her, I assure you the Nobel Prize will definitely be yours!"

"Uncle Xu, say no more!" Xiao Yi’s face turned serious, "Starting today, your daughter is my daughter! From now on, and for the rest of my life! I will exhaust all I have to guard her! This heart, eternally unchanging!"

"......."

In the end, Xu Yingguang still managed to suppress the urge to shout out all the thoughts in his heart, as it was not the time to care about those things. He could only nod his head with difficulty.

"Hm... my daughter, I leave her in your hands."

"... Please rest assured, leave her to me!"

The connection was temporarily cut off, and Xu Yingguang took a deep breath. Being outside the Analog Horror instance, this was all he could do.

"Mr. Xu, is it really okay?" But the people around him couldn’t help but worry, "That promise you made, it might not be easy to fulfill."

"It’s fine." Xu Yingguang waved his hand dismissively, "After all, among the Nobel Prizes, there’s one called the Peace Prize."

"...Oh, so that’s how it is..."

Everyone laughed with relief.

...

On the other hand, the audience in the live broadcast room couldn’t hear Xu Yingguang’s voice, after all, it was transmitted directly into Xiao Yi’s mind.

They only knew that Xiao Yi was communicating with the higher-ups of Dragon Country.

Then, Xiao Yi, who was already high in battle spirit, saw his battle spirit suddenly surge! Explode! Skyrocket! Intensify! Ramp up!

No one knew what exactly the high-ups of Dragon Country had told him.

At the same time, the pure white that filled the world began to fade, revealing a new, unfamiliar world to everyone, and to Xiao Yi.

This instance had officially begun.

Xiao Yi was now inside an abandoned and desolate building.

In this building, which had been neglected for a long time and had accumulated trash, chaotic layers intertwined to create a dirty and disordered scene.

Old newspapers on the floor, bottles and jars, and deposits of unknown substances spread out like a sea of sand, carrying the stench of time. The gaps left by broken windows whistled eerily from time to time.

"...Where is this?"

Xiao Yi looked out from the abandoned building to see the city in ruins and unprecedented desolation.

Under the cold gray sky, numerous concrete frames still retained the contours of their past prosperity, although they were now covered with cracks.

Broken electrical wires swayed in the wind like vines in the jungle, the twisty and empty streets were devoid of life, and in the ruined buildings with shattered rooftiles, one could barely see the windows, broken into spiderweb patterns.

The scrolling screens of billboards had stopped, a frozen Ferris wheel and a skyscraper lying horizontally in the distance outlined a scene of desolation—the city was empty except for deathly silence.

Looking at this scene, the audience in the live broadcast room also couldn’t help but feel emotional.

[This sight... to be honest, perfectly matches my imagination of a ruined world! My rating is... it’s got such feeling!]

[Wait a minute! I remember this instance is called Path of Survival, and with this scene, hiss... I think I’ve understood what this instance is all about and what kind of enemies we’re going to face!]

[Ah, it’s only one-star difficulty, just play around and it’ll be fine. You’re making it seem like it’s real. Moreover, compared to those trivial things, I’m more interested in what Brother Xiao Yi’s teammate is going to be like this time! Really intrigued! In a hurry! In a hurry!]

[I remember... the other Chosen One’s name, it seems to be Xu Woshi, a woman’s name, right? That means this time Brother Xiao Yi is taking a girl to rank up! Quack! That’s just too awesome!]

[Tch—I’m a cute girl too, why didn’t they pick me? And that Xu Woshi, her name sounds so nice, who knows how strange she might look.]

Suddenly, the entire live broadcast room fell silent in an instant, not a single person spoke, because everyone saw that person.

She made everyone lose their composure for a moment.

"Sorry..."

Xiao Yi heard a voice from behind him and turned around. Then, he couldn’t help but freeze.

In this messy environment, a girl in a black school uniform stood there.

Her presence seemed to slice through the world, the desolate scenery around her gradually receded, and even the cold sunlight became gentle.

Her school uniform was dark brick black, simple and plain, while her white shirt was pure and bright, forming a stark contrast with her black uniform and further highlighting her delicate skin.

Her white stockings were so pristine, as if her legs were covered by the first snow, reflecting a subtle sheen in the sunlight. Xiao Yi could almost see the snowflakes slowly melting on her slender legs, warm and damp.
