Chapter 513: Chapter 512: Infinite Stream Cannon Fodder: Finale Part 2

"Chenchen, what are you thinking about?" Wei Wenlan asked, noticing Chenchen seemed distracted.

Ah Chen said, "I’m thinking about the Permanent Resurrection Card. It would be great to get one, then there’s no rush to leave."

"It’s a nice thought," Wei Wenlan replied. With such a fascinating world, she also felt there was no need to hurry.

But winning ten levels, that’s truly not easy.

"Let’s leave it to fate, better not to take risks."

Ah Chen agreed, but had already decided to give it a try.

Failed dungeon runs? That’s impossible.

She actually hadn’t really used her abilities when clearing those dungeons.

Now Wei Wenlan also cleared four dungeons; one more and she’ll be able to leave. She rested for half a day and greeted Ah Chen before continuing her dungeon runs.

Ah Chen, however, wasn’t in a hurry. She wanted to check on Wei Yao and Huo Jingchen’s situation.

Soon, in her room, she vaguely heard Wei Yao and Huo Jingchen’s voices.

She opened the door and walked out, sure enough, she saw the two sitting on the couch with a sullen expression.

Seeing her come out, the two glanced up, nodding without saying much.

"I’ve failed twice, bought two Resurrection Cards, and now there’s only one chance left," Huo Jingchen’s voice sounded, "It’s not easy to gather a hundred thousand currency. How much do you have on hand?"

Wei Yao’s face was pale: "Five thousand left."

"I only have twenty thousand here, adding up to twenty-five thousand, still not enough. Linlin has gone into the dungeon, no idea when she’ll return, and seventy-five thousand is still needed to buy a hundred thousand Resurrection Card," Huo Jingchen said.

Hearing this, Ah Chen understood that Wei Yao had failed three times, using three Resurrection Cards. First time a hundred, second time a thousand, third time was ten thousand, and the fourth Resurrection Card requires a hundred thousand.

They were pooling money.

But did Huo Jingchen really only have twenty thousand left?

With his skills, did he really fail twice? At that moment, Ah Chen was very curious.

Regardless of character, Huo Jingchen wasn’t a foolish person. He was even somewhat smart and capable. Even if he was initially flustered here, he would definitely adapt quickly.

Failure is possible, but she always felt that he hadn’t spoken the truth just now.

Because of curiosity, she even tried contacting the Main God, wondering if he wasn’t busy?

"Friend, is there anything you need help with?"

Clearly, the Main God was very enthusiastic, quite willing to engage with her.

Ah Chen didn’t hold back, communicating mentally: "How many times has Huo Jingchen cleared a dungeon, failed, and how much currency does he have left?"

"He has cleared four dungeons, failed once, and has sixty-five thousand currency left."

As expected.

Ah Chen knew Huo Jingchen was hiding something, meaning he only bought one Resurrection Card and could easily buy two more.

"Friend, although you dislike him, I can’t help you mess with him. Adventurers here have good fortune to be helped, but as the Main God, I must adhere to principles and cannot target anyone deliberately."

"It’s fine, you’re doing great. I don’t plan to ask you to deal with him; if he wants to leave, let him do so by his abilities."

According to Ah Chen, this isn’t an utterly terrible place. Death doesn’t mean a real soul extinction. As long as one has a firm mind, even if eliminated, there’s still a chance to return. She, on the contrary, hoped Huo Jingchen would leave to experience life and death outside.

"Thank you for understanding, friend."

"If someone alive dies here, does their body outside die as well?" Ah Chen asked again.

"Yes, friend. If their mind is firm, one day they can become adventurers again, meeting the conditions to return; but their former body is definitely unusable. Reaching that step, they can directly spend currency to coagulate a body. They can spend a lot to choose a time point, but cannot assume their previous identity nor return to a time before their death outside, to prevent disrupting the rules, which is why living challengers only need to clear five levels to leave; the time cannot be too long."

As for souls of those deceased, their exterior body is already dead, of course it doesn’t affect anything, they can stay as long as they like.

"Chenchen, do you have seventy-five thousand currency? I’ll repay you later when I have it. Wei Yao is short of seventy-five thousand now." Huo Jingchen came over to Ah Chen, his expression somewhat uneasy as he spoke.

Perhaps due to more experiences in the dungeons, Wei Yao didn’t seem as annoying as before; like Huo Jingchen, his demeanor was awkward, but he still approached Ah Chen.

"If there’s a chance, I can repay you double."

"If you have a Resurrection Card, lending that is fine too; I’ll repay you with a Resurrection Card then." Wei Yao suddenly thought of this. Li Chen is so capable, he guessed she hadn’t bought many Resurrection Cards. Wei Yao said this and felt it sounded bad, adding, "I know it takes a lot of face, but if you find it difficult and choose not to lend, that’s fine; you have no obligation."

Earlier, he had offended her greatly, and couldn’t guarantee Li Chen would lend; now he could only treat a dead horse as if it were still alive.

Failing in three dungeons, these aren’t just solo efforts, but also team cooperation, he truly witnessed what human nature is like. Especially encountering those levels where adventurers are allowed to eliminate each other, there were numerous heartless stabs in the back.

The conflicts with Li Chen were really insignificant in comparison.

Additionally, it’s difficult for him to find someone as upright as Li Chen; almost none exist like her, which is why he felt such a presence is rare.

Ah Chen said, "I transferred all my currency and items to Lanlan before."

Those present actually knew Ah Chen usually gave her stuff to Wei Wenlan.

Wei Yao’s face grew even paler, yet this time, he didn’t utter any accusations. Li Chen truly owed him nothing, even if she had seventy-five thousand, whether or not she lends is her business; moreover, it’s not a small sum. Given their relationship, he could accept if she chose not to lend; nothing to complain about, it’s simply his fate.

Ah Chen, however, noticed Huo Jingchen’s expression of ’as expected’; her eyes filled with a faint smile, this person was even more selfish than she imagined.

Wei Yao, however unpleasant, isn’t clever, but he’s wholeheartedly devoted to Huo Jingchen, no question. Reportedly, outside, Wei Yao once shielded Huo Jingchen from a blade; though it only injured his arm, it clearly shows his loyalty to a friend, willing to risk his life, otherwise he wouldn’t have ended up here.

As for Huo Jingchen, he probably holds back with everyone? Even if he has some spare capacity, if it’s not a lot, he wouldn’t fully reveal his cards; not just with Wei Yao, almost certainly similar with Qin Lin.

Selfishness is too common, but those willingly devoted to him would surely be disheartened.

So far, Wei Yao and Qin Lin likely don’t know what Huo Jingchen truly thinks.

Ah Chen didn’t know what cards Qin Lin held.

But Wei Yao should have none left; in front of Huo Jingchen, he hardly holds anything back.
