Chapter 243: Chapter 241 Lin Er’er and Defu_1
"Quit your yapping, and sign this for me, quick!"
Lin Yiyi glared and slammed the table, "Hurry up and press your fingerprint!"
The bespectacled young man squatting before her wore a bitter expression and cried out pitifully,
"Sis! I’m your own brother, aren’t I?"
Since when did we start scamming our own brothers—
Lin Er’er grumbled to himself.
Just by looking at their fittingly ridiculous names, one can tell they have a dad who enjoys playing tricks on his kids.
Today Lin Er’er received a phone call, his sister had given him a strict order to find his academic advisor and urgently ask for half-day leave, and he had to rush to the Sheshan villa area before dinner.
Left with no other choice, Lin Er’er skipped class on the spot and, using the excuse "My sister is getting married," obtained a three-day leave note from his academic advisor.
Seeing that he had to temporarily set aside several days of studies, the young man could only wear a look of sorrow.
Lin Er’er had never imagined that his elder sister would one day latch onto a wealthy lady.
Jiu’er, the streamer, he actually knew her—she counted as one of the well-known wealthy ladies in the streaming circle.
...Or rather, a wealthy "lolita."
Although Lin Er’er was only a sophomore, he was also a streamer on the Doumao platform.
Initially, he existed as a "tool man" in Lin Yiyi’s videos, frequently appearing in various cooperation (death) competition (forced) game streams. He commonly used the name "Four Concealed Triplets, Thousand Miles of Lone Riding."
Since Lin Yiyi also went by the nickname "Stick Sister," Lin Er’er was soon jokingly referred to as "Tile Brother" by the audience friends.
His skills and reactions were clearly not as good as his sister’s, but he had a knack for entertainment value and quick thinking, so he quickly became familiar to the audience and gathered a small following.
After Lin Er’er finished his university entrance exam, and with time to spare, he started his own streaming account, showcasing classics like "999," "Objection Ali," "The Witch’s Suburban Villa," and other well-known mystery solving games.
...And, to his surprise, it took off.
In just over a year, he had become a somewhat famous streamer for niche games. He would stream new horror and puzzle games or play Mahjong and auto chess in his spare time and had made a decent amount of money.
When he heard that Lin Yiyi moved in with Jiu’er, Lin Er’er was a bit surprised.
Wow.
His big sister could even bag a wealthy "lolita" now, huh.
Truly enviable... utterly contemptible!
And today, he was dragged over by a phone call from his sister—originally Lin Er’er thought he was coming over to be commanded to leech a meal.
But unexpectedly...
The moment he arrived, Lin Yiyi dragged him into her room and had him sign a contract that looked very odd.
Something about a real world, something about a Genesis engine...
Even though she seemed not very bright compared to him, Lin Yiyi’s IQ wasn’t low either. After all, she graduated from a prestigious university...
How did she get bamboozled all of a sudden?
"Don’t worry about it, just sign!"
Lin Yiyi smacked Lin Er’er’s head impatiently, "Have you read it yet? Have you remembered it? Hurry up and press your fingerprint, you don’t need ink... Just press and be done, and I’ll treat you to a meal!"
She was rather helpless.
Although she had received an invitation slot, Lin Yiyi’s social circle wasn’t that broad—or rather, given her age and gender, the UP hosts she knew were either not very close to her or weren’t very good at games.
In the end, she thought it over and could only resort to her own brother.
This rebellious brother hadn’t helped her with videos for a long time, but every year when he was home for the holidays, she would still go over to help with the live streams.
Of course, with no face reveal.
Just chest.
Though, really, there was nothing of the chest to show.
"All right, all right..."
Lin Er’er, with an expression of resignation, was about to press his fingerprint.
He’d just humor his sister.
For the sake of a feast.
Suddenly, Lin Yiyi remembered something and grabbed him anxiously, "Right, don’t choose Swordsman, okay? Make sure to look carefully, different classes have different strengths... Look closely, and you’ll know which class suits you."
She had already asked Kaishen and Jiu’er about it.
It seemed each person’s suited class was different. There were no strategies to offer him since it varied from person to person...
Or rather, the different initial strengths already let the players know what class suited them best; if two classes had similar strengths, it meant either choice was fine, but if there was only one class with the highest strength, it meant that class was the most fitting for the individual.
"I know, sis!"
Lin Er’er said somewhat impatiently, "It’s just a game, you should trust my gaming talent..."
But the moment Lin Er’er touched the fingerprint area on the contract, he felt something was wrong.
He distinctly felt that this touch... wasn’t the feeling of pressing on paper.
He subconsciously applied more force, but the contract still produced an electric shock-like sensation, snapping his hand open.
A tingling sensation shot from his fingertips to his elbow.
Immediately afterward, Lin Er’er saw the three contracts suddenly fly up on their own and burn to ashes in mid-air—
Then, the spectacled and frail boy suddenly rolled his eyes backward and lost consciousness.
Seeing Lin Er’er collapse toward her, Lin Yiyi subconsciously performed a backward jump to perfectly evade him—then she realized she probably shouldn’t have dodged.
"...This is PTSD, I guess I’m an old soldier now..."
She felt somewhat guilty as she helped Lin Er’er up, trying to move him from the carpet to the bed, but after several attempts, she gave it up.
So Lin Yiyi decided to do the opposite, taking the pillow and blanket down for her brother and placing them on the carpet.
"The carpet in Jiu’er’s place is quite soft and warm. It won’t freeze, so just sleep on the floor..."
Lin Yiyi muttered a few words, feeling a bit thirsty.
Time to mooch some drinks off Jiu’er~
At least she’d managed to hoodwink her exceptionally clever brother into the game, so Lin Yiyi happily left her own room.
On the other side.
The "invitation code" for Delicious Goose had also reached the last player’s hands.
She did not hesitate much before choosing the profession with a hunting bow on her back and a pet at her side.
She was extremely confident in her archery skills.
Moreover, this "game" seemed to amplify her power...
After she finished allocating her points, she tried clenching her fists and found her strength was slightly greater than in reality while her stamina seemed a bit weaker. As for reaction speed and movement accuracy, those were clearly much faster—she even believed she could now effortlessly catch flying arrows and shoot them back with her bow.

[Please confirm your initial panel]
"Confirmed,"
Defu said.
She allocated all her attribute points to agility, and her skill points to an upgrade for [Empathic Mind].
That was because she didn’t understand the skill "Curse Binding" that well... and the description for Precise Strike was that it significantly increased hit rates against static enemies within fifty meters.
...She didn’t need such assistance.
For her, fixed targets within fifty meters were just a matter of scoring nine or ten rings. And if she upgraded the skill to level two, it would only shift from a static target to a "low-speed moving target."
It seemed that for a qualitative change—at least level four was required.
Luckily, her superb archery saved a lot of skill points...
Defu realized she was perhaps too suited for this profession.
The strength of her occupation far exceeded all others—she could even choose a[Bear]or a[Large Feline]as her initial animal companion!
A bear clad in armor could probably defeat three swordsmen of the same level.
But she hesitated for a moment and for future considerations, she still chose the medium-sized feline.
Because with [Empathic Mind]upgraded to level two, Defu could exchange her vision with her animal companion after a brief delay.
This was doubtlessly akin to having an observer that could roam the battlefield.
To achieve this effect, she specifically chose her animal companion to be a feline—large ones were too conspicuous for hiding, small ones were too fragile, while mediums were just right. Its innate talents were also personally selected by Defu.
As for its appearance...
Defu, acting on her own obsessions and personal preferences, dressed it in a wildcat’s skin.
Looking at the cat before her, resembling a small cheetah, Defu was very satisfied.
