Lin Xun was unwilling to follow the arrangements of the underworld game, choosing a manner of death he had never tried before.

He opened the ‘Shell’ bar and clicked directly on the ‘Engineer’ shell.

[You are possessing the shell of the ‘Pyramid Corporation’s Engineer’]

[You bathe in the light of the ‘Blood-Colored Sunset’, your rationality gradually leaving you… Suddenly, you find that the fresh ‘Blood-Colored Sunset’ in front of you becoming dazzling, sacred and bright!]

[Ah! You can’t help but praise the sun!]

[You’re dead!]

[The weak Wandering Soul is reborn in the familiar sewer tunnel…]

How about that? Underworld game, is it surprising? Is it unexpected?

Lin Xun sneered faintly, putting down his phone.

After a full day of game practice, it was already nearing dusk.

Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Lu Caiyi had started preparing dinner in the kitchen.

Lin Xun smacked his lips, feeling that he couldn’t just indulge in idleness like this.

If he didn’t complete the excavation task in time, he might drag himself down instead.

He must show Lu Caiyi a thing or two today!

Before Lin Xun became a mediocre author, he was also a hard-working brick mover with a 996 schedule.

As a single man living alone, besides playing games and reading web novels, his biggest hobby was gourmet food.

He often cooked for himself, but after quitting his job and becoming a crap writer, he spent his days typing and quickly eating takeout meals.

Lin Xun sneaked into the kitchen quietly.

The kitchen was wiped clean, and the ceramic tiles on the walls that were originally yellowed from oil fumes revealed their true whiteness.

The girl, wearing an apron, was washing vegetables in the sink, humming an unknown melody.

On the kitchen counter, washed and cut vegetables and meat were neatly placed in small dishes.

She was too virtuous, wasn’t she? Lin Xun couldn’t help smacking his lips.

He suddenly tapped the girl from behind, giving Lu Caiyi a big scare.

“Alright, you go rest on the sofa. I’ll take care of dinner.”

Lu Caiyi blinked her big eyes in disbelief, “You?”

Lin Xun, who was rolling up his sleeves and ready to get to work, raised an eyebrow, “What? Don’t believe I can cook?”

The girl hurriedly shook her head, indicating her belief in him, although her beautiful eyes clearly revealed, ‘You don’t look like someone who can cook’.

Lin Xun curled his lips, directly picked up the pot and heated the oil…

The white-clad girl watching him skillfully begin to stir-fry, stared blankly, as if lost in thought.

After a long while, Lu Caiyi came back to her senses. She gave a faint smile, her eyes curving gracefully.

She didn’t go to rest, but instead tied the apron she had taken off around Lin Xun and helped him.

Both of them remained silent, but there was a wordless understanding in the kitchen.

After enjoying the delicious dinner, Lu Caiyi rushed to clean up the dishes and chopsticks.

Lin Xun let the girl busy herself. Seeing that he had nothing to do, he took out his phone again to continue his game.

Book of Salvation, activate.

[The weak Wandering Soul awakens in the familiar sewer tunnel…]

Possessing the shell of the Yellow Bishop, the Rest Page is right in front of him.

He clicked on the Rest Page, and indeed, apart from setting up a respawn point, refreshing rest and teleporting, there was an additional option.

[4. Oath: The oath you possess is ‘Golden Sun’. After the invasion of the oath is victorious, you can exchange unknown rewards for the number of victories. Current Oath Victories: 0]

The blind box reward in the oath is interesting. Lin Xun has seen lucky ones in the forum who got top-notch equipment and items, and also those who got garbage and 10 points of spirituality.

However, those who got top-notch equipment and items were basically more victorious apostles.

His first blind box reward has been determined. After winning three times in the oath invasion, he could get a key to unlock the exclusive item from the blind box.

Lin Xun opened the item bar to check, there was only one invasion bookmark left, which didn’t meet the standard for opening a blind box.

He wasn’t in a hurry. When he returned to the library, he would find a way to get an invasion bookmark.

He delved into the sewer again, heading for the ‘Hungry Old Man’

After several twists and turns, he finally entered the room where the NPC was located.

The ‘Hungry Old Man’ blighter, seeing Lin Xun again, didn’t pretend not to know him.

[You step forward and chat with him. The old man looks up at you, his pupil flickering with shock. It recognizes the ‘Golden Sun’ oath in you.]

[The ‘Hungry Old Man’ slowly pulls out an item from his robe and gives it to you, then continues to watch the candle flame in front of him. The light of life gradually fades from his eyes, and he drops his head weakly.]

[You’ve gotten a ‘Stinky Dung Aggregate’ (throwing item)]

Lin Xun raised an eyebrow, the ‘Hungry Old Man’ gave him an item, didn’t give any follow-up tasks, and then died on the spot.

It seemed that the hidden plot in the Blood Sun world had ended in Chapter 323.

The subsequent oath missions could only be triggered from the Sun Ring that the giant ‘Dan’ gave him.

[You’re looking at the shell of the ‘Hungry Old Man’…]

[The shell of the ‘Hungry Old Man’, a mysterious old man of unknown origin. Perhaps because he still believed in the ‘Golden Sun’ before his death, he didn’t fall into despair. He died with his wish fulfilled and was released from the world. Compatibility: 103 (+35%)]

Lin Xun took possession of the ‘Hungry Old Man’ and opened the shell panel to take a look.

His face turned black while looking at the rubbish shell in his hands, and he immediately tossed it away.

Even the black-robed priest has a prayer book, but this guy has nothing, and the shell quality is also at the Ruined Level. Why keep this junk if not for throwing?

Lin Xun opened the item bar to check his items.

[The ‘Stinky Dung Aggregate’ (a throwing item) is a valuable item obtained by aggregating numerous ‘Stinky Feces Stones’, extracting the essence and eliminating the dregs. After throwing it on the ground, it can splash numerous ‘Stinky Feces Stones’ around you, attaching to the enemy.]

Lin Xun was silent and speechless, what kind of powerful attack was this?

A tremor went through his hand, and he almost materialized this thing in reality.

He quickly closed the item bar, silently saying that was close.

Lin Xun exited the sewer and made his way back.

It took a good while before he returned to the original site of the White Moon Cathedral.

The familiar option popped up again.

[The southern route: You look as far as your eyes can see, at the end of the barren road, there is a ‘Fallen Subspecies Sea Dragon’ blocking the way. The partial scales and claws revealed from the shadow of the ruins are exceptionally huge. With every movement, the ground trembles with a thunderous rumble, stirring up waves of scarlet air.]

Looking at the option for the southern route, Lin Xun smirked slightly.

The scene of him being brutally ravaged by the Sea Dragon Boss still lingered in his memory. Back then, he could only dodge the dragon’s breath sprayed by the Boss.

Now, with the ‘Giant Dragon Orb’, a tool that could be considered a nemesis for lower-level Dragon Clan members, a mere Subspecies Sea Dragon was as good as caught?

Just as Lin Xun was about to click the option, anyone ready to fight the Boss to avenge the past, the game text suddenly jumped…

[You’re being watched by an unknown existence, your connection with the ‘Profane Blood Sun’ deepens!]

???

Lin Xun slowly typed out three question marks.

Are you kidding me? I was just acting as a snitch, and they’ve already found out?
