In a café, a Beautiful Maiden dressed in a Miko Outfit approached a man wearing sunglasses and a baseball cap. With a soft thud, she pressed down on a Marriage Registration Form and calmly stated, "I promised Menglu I would take care of you. Let's get married."
Her expression was one of complete indifference, as if she were discussing something utterly mundane.
The man, whose features were entirely concealed by his sunglasses and cap, couldn't help but spray his coffee everywhere upon seeing the form in front of him.
As scenes flashed through his mind and he noticed the slight overlap in reality before him, Yang Xiaoyou felt a wave of confusion wash over him. What had that idol girl done to him?
"Lin, calm down. What's going on? Are you remembering something?" Yang Xiaoyou forced himself to steady his emotions and anxiously placed his hands on Feng Lin's shoulders.
There was no doubt that he and Dream Butterfly had encountered factors leading to this moment, but how could Feng Lin have any related memories? Would it have any abnormal effects on her body?
After being shaken slightly by Yang Xiaoyou, Feng Lin appeared dazed and confused, tilting her head in bewilderment without grasping her current state.
Her lack of response relieved Yang Xiaoyou somewhat. It was evident that Dream Butterfly had done something to Feng Lin, possibly triggering some Memory Fragments from Dream Butterfly's past life.
However, he was puzzled; it was clear that this wasn't an invasion of personality. It was likely similar to his own situation but perhaps even less intense—just some fragments that might have been stirred up during Dream Butterfly's entanglements with her.
"It's nothing," Feng Lin blinked behind her glasses, seemingly regaining some clarity, though she still appeared unsure about the situation.
After all, Feng Lin was as pure as a blank slate; her personality was tranquil and indifferent. Without Dream Butterfly's intervention, she would never have gained complete memories or personality traits—even if it were possible, the impact would be minimal.
Sorting through it all seemed much easier than he expected.
Even if she hadn't acquired a full personality and only obtained some Memory Fragments, with her blank-slate nature, she would likely instinctively absorb certain actions naturally.
Now it was possible to understand her earlier actions.
She couldn't distinguish between her own experiences and those enhanced by the Dream Butterfly.
"You've really caused me a big problem this time." Looking at Feng Lin, who seemed a bit bewildered and confused, Yang Xiaoyou couldn't help but feel exasperated.
Perhaps this change would have a significant impact on Feng Lin's safety and adaptability, preventing the accumulation of pent-up frustration that Yang Xiaoyou had experienced due to the stark contrast in her own situation.
However, due to the aspects of her personality, those injected memory fragments would bring considerable trouble to her.
Although Feng Lin was simple-minded and hardly cared about anything, once she set her mind on something, her level of obsession would surpass anyone Yang Xiaoyou knew, even exceeding the fixations of Liu Lianyue and Luo Guohui!
And what she was fixated on was...
"Marriage."
Indeed, even though she seemed to have adapted somewhat, the imprints that had been injected into her could not be erased. At that moment, she instinctively began searching for the 'registration form' on her person, prompting Yang Xiaoyou to grab her and shake her a few times.
"That... that’s a bit premature right now. Let's first resolve the issue at hand."
What surprised Yang Xiaoyou was that she had expected Feng Lin to be entangled in an obsession similar to the one from their previous life, almost completely unable to communicate. However, this time Feng Lin calmly nodded and surprisingly did not pursue the matter further.
This unexpected reaction left Yang Xiaoyou feeling somewhat uncertain; she vaguely understood that this girl would not simply let things go as they appeared.
"Help me! No! Don't!"
Just as Yang Xiaoyou felt a sense of unease from Feng Lin's expressionless demeanor, the voice of Cao Youcai pulled him back to reality.
It turned out that the silver giant wolf suddenly sensed some kind of threat. After casting a glance at their direction, it immediately sank its teeth into Cao Youcai's shoulder.
The wolf nearly engulfed half of his body, but clearly, judging by the fact that Cao Youcai was still able to scream for help, what it had done was likely similar to what Yang Xiaoyou experienced with that Survivor—it had simply injected some special fluid.
Cao Youcai, who was struggling and howling, began to make increasingly loud sounds. Saliva started to dribble from the corners of his mouth, his eyes rolled back in a manner that suggested he was losing control, and his body began to convulse.
The few people beside them, although completely unaware of why Feng Lin seemed to be undergoing a change, found most of their attention drawn to the Silver Giant Wolf.
"It seems its bite force isn't very strong; it might not be as powerful as it looks. If the four of us work together, we might have a chance to save him!" Chen Long assessed after witnessing the giant wolf's 'bite' on Cao Youcai.
Moreover, whether it was Feng Lin's two swift strikes or Yang Xiaoyou's kick, it became clear that these two seemingly unreliable fellows possessed formidable combat abilities. If the four teamed up, their chances of victory were quite high. In contrast, if they turned to flee now, the likelihood of being caught and defeated one by one would be much greater.
To demonstrate his sincerity, as soon as he finished speaking, he gripped his mountain-cutting knife and dashed toward the colossal creature!
He understood that just like dealing with a thief on a bus—if someone took the lead, they could easily subdue the threat. However, if forced by ruthless actions, no matter how many people there were, they would be helpless.
In that instant he charged forward, his own energy gradually coalesced and guided itself as if trying to unite the four into a single force!
Liu Shaoqiang, Cao Youcai, and Chen Long were all on the same level; however, this momentary exposure revealed that Chen Long possessed leadership qualities that the other two lacked—he was born to be a captain!
It was this guiding energy that caused Liu Shaoqiang, who had been vigilant all along, to involuntarily rise alongside Chen Long. Their energies began to merge.
This surge even aimed to include Yang Xiaoyou and Feng Lin in its momentum; however, as they approached the two, it was instantly shattered!
As Chen Long drew near the Silver Giant Wolf, he had no energy to pay attention to anything else. With a fierce determination, he aimed a lethal strike at the wolf's neck.
Right behind him, Liu Shaoqiang leaped into the air, soaring over Chen Long. In midair, he used his body weight to launch a desperate attack that was all or nothing. Despite it being their first collaboration, their coordination was nearly perfect.
Beside them, Washboard and Skinny Geek clenched their fists in hope. The powerful synergy and sharpness of their combined assault boosted their confidence in taking down the giant wolf.
After all, it seemed that the wolf had not managed to kill the injured Cao Youcai, appearing somewhat strong on the outside but weak within.
Ideals can be beautiful, but reality is often cruel.
With a light sound, the Silver Wolf barely glanced at them. It raised its front paw and swiped.
Chen Long's mountain-splitting knife shattered into four pieces!
Even after his blade broke, he maintained a look of disbelief as he continued to charge forward, seemingly unaffected by the force of the wolf's claw slicing through his weapon.
What he held was not a steel weapon but felt as fragile as paper!
The momentary harmony between the two shattered.
Liu Shaoqiang, who had leaped up for a powerful strike, did manage to hit the wolf's back. However, the sound of metal clashing with fur was painfully jarring.
A tremendous recoil sent Liu Shaoqiang tumbling backward, colliding heavily with Chen Long, who had also lost his balance. They rolled into a heap together.
Flesh and blood shattered like steel!
Although Liu Shaoqiang and Chen Long appeared to be no less formidable than Cao Youcai, perhaps even stronger in certain aspects, the silver wolf seemed utterly uninterested in the two of them.
With Cao Youcai in its jaws, it casually raised a paw, intending to dismember the two men.
As they were sent flying, they realized it was all over! They never expected reality to diverge so drastically from their expectations! It was so cruel! So utterly despairing!
They had no capacity to resist, not even able to inflict the slightest harm upon it!
They were completely blinded by that one bite.
As the paw lifted, it felt as if the air around them had solidified, a brutal force pressing down on the two boys who had already lost their spirit and were nearly ready to give up, rendering them completely immobile!
This was not something a wolf could do; it resembled a lofty king passing judgment on them!
Just as they resigned themselves and closed their eyes, they suddenly felt a powerful gust of wind erupting from the front.
At first, they thought it was an attack from the wolf, which made their hearts sink even further. But then they realized that the deadly strike had yet to descend upon them.
As the fierce wind gradually subsided, they began to squint open their eyes, filled with shock at the scene before them!
A magnificent figure, shining like a starry sky, appeared before them.
And the wolf's attacking paw was being held back by an arm that seemed entirely mismatched!
If it weren't for the Camouflage Uniform on his arm being completely shredded by the fierce wind and force, and if it weren't for the cracks and bulges appearing on the ground beneath Both Sides, it would have seemed as if the Beast Tamer had coordinated with his partner in advance.
"Well, you two do have some potential. Just remember, you owe me your lives, and that debt must be repaid."
With his back turned to them, his clothes and hair fluttered in the wind, and his Military Cap was blown away. He looked like a dazzling star as he slightly turned his head and flashed a grin at the two.
The wicked smile on his partially exposed face added a wild, untamed charm to his originally handsome appearance.
He needed to wrap things up quickly; with training scheduled for next week in another city, he had to speed up. The recent events surrounding Tragedy had been overwhelming, truly a tormenting experience.
