CH 166.2

“There you are. If it were anyone else, I would have died.”

Lin Xinghe took three steps forward, first looked around at the environment to make sure it was safe before scanning Jiuge and asking, “What happened?”

Jiuge’s face as pale, and his circulation weak.

Lin Xinghe took out a few bottles of stamina potion from her portable space.

Only after Jiuge knocked them back did he slowly regain color and tell her about his experiences.

After leaving the competitive examination room of Bastet, Jiuge too was locked into the small white room. After about ten hours, a mechanical sound reminded him that the ultimate examination room had been opened.

After Jiuge entered the ultimate examination room, the place that appeared was this white gallery, and he was just starting to explore it when he lost consciousness. When he regained consciousness, he saw a strange woman in his body, yelling, “Jiuge, I’m Ling Xiran, I’m Lin Xinghe’s disciple.”

He lost all his memories.

And he didn’t know why the strange woman was calling him Jiuge. He didn’t even know who Ling Xiran or Lin Xinghe was. He only knew that he could not control his own body once night fell, and he even became very anxious when he heard the three words Lin Xinghe. A voice kept telling him that if he killed Lin Xinghe, he would no longer be anxious and he would know who he was.

But the strange woman inside him was very powerful.

He fought against her for many days while actively searching for the meaning of his existence.

When he patrolled the streets at night, everything around him was so familiar that he always felt he had seen it somewhere ……

Later on, if Ling Xiran hadn’t been there to yell blindly that this was his inner world, he would have killed someone to find out.

Lin Xinghe heard this, took out her phone, and asked, “Is this man you?”

Jiuge saw his shirtless body at a glance and decisively pressed off the screen.

Lin Xinghe said, “Hey, those of us who have experienced multiple novel worlds have been male and female NPCs countless times. We do not have to sweat the details. Is this the image of your NPC in some world?”

Jiuge nodded and then shook his head.

“Yes and no, I seem to have experienced such a fictional world but perhaps not. I always thought I was afraid of losing my hair and going bald because of my defense skills, that’s why I was especially worried about hair loss.”

Lin Xinghe said, “I feel the same way, but I did not expect that your deepest fear is the worry of being a corporate slave……”

Jiuge said, “To tell you the truth, I did not expect that either.”

Jiuge added: “But what’s more surprising is that Principal Wang used my inner world as an examination room. Fortunately, it was you taking the exam, otherwise we would have lost in a minute.”

Jiuge, still confused, said, “I really did not expect my inner world to be like this, is this really my inner world? I really can’t figure out why I’m so scared of these mundane troubles. Is it possible that this was imposed by Principal Wang?”

Lin Xinghe said, “I don’t think so. If you weren’t mired in the real fear and anxiety inside, you could have easily woken yourself up from the anxiety without me rescuing you. If you could have come to your senses, that world would have disintegrated on its own.”

Jiuge couldn’t think it through further.

He said, “Forget it, I don’t know what the hell Principal Wang is playing at, Fu Zhou and the others can’t even get in touch with us.”

Lin Xinghe said, “Principal Wang also took away my Xiao Xue Ji. The world just now has disintegrated. It seems there weren’t any candidates in the examination room just now, it was just me and you, and here ……”

Lin Xinghe looked around and continued on with Jiuge.

There were road signs on the wall, and after turning two corners, they finally saw the end.

At the end was an elevator.

The floor number on the right was “1”.

Lin Xinghe suddenly laughed, “I really guessed right, this is a transit station, that examination room just now was just a small examination room in a big examination room.”

Jiuge’s eyes twitched. “Climbing the tower?”

Lin Xinghe said, “Yes, similar to the tower climbing game, each layer of the tower has a boss, the first layer of the tower boss was you. Only when you pass to the last level will you be considered to have won.”

Jiuge took a breath, “Fu Zhou and Xie Wuan, they may be bosses?”

Lin Xinghe said, “Yes, letting us kill each other is only interesting for Principal Wang.”

Lin Xinghe pressed the call button.

The elevator doors slowly opened.

Lin Xinghe entered the elevator.

There were no buttons for floor levels, only a close button.

Jiuge was about to follow inside but found that there was an invisible boundary at the entrance of the elevator. No matter what method he used, he could not enter.

Seeing this, Lin Xinghe said, “It seems that bosses can’t use the elevator. Jiuge, it’s okay, you wait here for my good news. I’ll climb the tower and rescue our companions!”

Lin Xinghe winked at him.

“I’ll definitely bring you a bottle of the absolute best shampoo!”
