As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the tent suddenly became solemn.

Chi Muyun clenched his fists and his knuckles turned white. But Mo Yun calmed down and comforted the girl:

"At least we are aware of the hidden crisis now. When the danger comes, we are mentally prepared and will not be at a loss."

"Yes." Chi Muyun nodded.

"The newspaper did not mention the reason for the disappearance of these tourists. Many people speculated that there was a group of cunning and cruel beasts hidden in the forest, similar to the northern dirtwolf, but even more dangerous than them." Mo Yun analyzed.

From the conversation around the bonfire just now, he learned that the Northern Direlle is a common type of wolf in this area. It is usually active in ice fields and forests, loves collective action, and has a strong desire to attack humans, which is very dangerous.

The girl's hands relaxed slightly, but her face was still a little pale.

"Don't worry too much, I'll protect you."

"You...thank you..." She nodded slightly.

"We are companions, so we should naturally help each other." Mo Yun said, "Have you ever watched horror movies? The routine of most horror movies is that the protagonist follows a group of teammates who like to commit suicide and breaks into a very scary place. The people around the protagonist are killed one by one, killed by terrifying things, and the only protagonist is left in the end. A better horror movie ending is that the protagonist finally finds a way to defeat the enemy and escapes the horror situation; but most horror movies often end up with team destruction."

"You mean we might be in a horror movie? We might also face the ending of the group destruction?"

"No, it's just a metaphor." Mo Yun shook his head, "that unknown existence has told us that we are participating in a survival game, our mission..."

He suddenly stopped and then realized a problem.

When he first came to this world, the task given to him was to [converge with his companions]. Now that he has completed the task, has the line changed?

Thinking of this, he immediately turned his gaze to the lower left corner of his field of view, but there was nothing there.

It turned out that the line of small words that had disappeared at some point. Perhaps because he was too focused by the bonfire, he didn't notice this key point!

Just when he was confused and uneasy, a line of small words suddenly appeared in the lower left corner.

"Task: Live."

"ah--"

Chi Muyun let out a low scream, obviously also noticed the change in the mission.

"Our mission prompt is our next goal." Mo Yun continued to say, "If we two are the protagonists of this survival game now, then our goal is to survive and complete the task."

"Yeah." Chi Muyun whispered.

"Actually, I have another guess."

"What guess?"

"Where do you live?" Mo Yun asked.

"ah?"

"I mean, since we have traveled to ourselves in parallel time and space, the assumption that there is a parallel world becomes a prerequisite. Using this assumption as a basis for reasoning, we will naturally think of a question: Are you and I from the same time and space?" he explained, "If we are not in the same time and space, then many things will be completely different. If we are in the same time and space, then after completing the task, there may be a chance to meet in the real world."

"I, I live in the Demon City now." Chi Muyun whispered.

"Demon City? I heard that there were heavy rains last night in the demons." He said.

"Yes. Last night, lightning and thunder roared, and I saw purple-red lightning falling from my head, as if a hole was torn into the sky, and the rain was pouring, and I didn't sleep well all night."

"Didn't you say you were traveling with your parents before?"

"We didn't go very far, we were near the demon city." Chi Muyun said.

"So that's it." Mo Yun nodded, "Then it's basically certain that we are in the same time and space. In other words, after we return to reality, we may be able to get in touch."

"It's been so long now, and my parents must be worried about it." The girl showed an anxious look on her face.

"It's not necessarily the case." Mo Yun denied the girl's statement, "Think about it, after we come to this world, we occupy our own bodies in this parallel space of time. That is to say, our bodies in reality may still remain in place, just in a coma. And, if I guess correctly, the flow rate of time in our world may be different from reality. In other words, we spend a few days here, and maybe only a few hours in reality."

"Why do you know so much..." The girl looked at him in shock.

"Maybe because I am a novelist." Mo Yun shrugged, "You know, writing novels always requires a lot of material, so you have to read a lot of miscellaneous books to find inspiration."

"Are you a novelist? Where do you live?" the girl asked curiously.

"Chengcheng."

"Oh, I've been there three times, and the climate there is very wet and comfortable," said Chi Muyun.

"Haha, I actually plan to move to the Demon City." Mo Yun smiled, "You know, after staying in the same place for a long time, I always want to change the environment."

"Okay, then you must find me after you come!" The girl also smiled, but then her face became lowered, "I just don't know if we can survive..."

"It must be." Mo Yun said firmly.

After a brief chat, he felt that the atmosphere between the two became much more harmonious. Perhaps because he knew that they came from the same world and the place where they lived was also connected, his heart also felt good about the girl, like meeting an old friend in a foreign land. In this strange environment full of crisis, meeting a person with a common topic was like catching a life-saving straw when he was about to drown. Although he might not be able to survive, at least he had hope.

Mo Yun raised his wrist and glanced at his watch. The hour hand pointed to the numbers eight and nine, and it should be half past eight at night. He unzipped the tent and looked out. The bonfire was still burning, and there was no one outside the camp.

He pulled up the zipper and turned to Chi Muyun: "Let's go to bed early tonight."

"Ah, OK." The girl nodded her head gently, her face slightly red.

"Uh-" He noticed the girl's face and added: "Don't take off your clothes, maybe there will be danger at night, we must be ready to leave the camp at any time."

"Yeah, OK," she whispered.

Mo Yun nodded and said nothing more. He lay down gently, turned his back to Chi Muyun, and turned his back to him. On the one hand, he was indeed a little tired and needed to take the time to rest as soon as possible; on the other hand, lying down early and facing Chi Muyun would also bring her some sense of security.

Close his eyes and darkness hit. About half a minute later, he heard the sound of the girl lying down behind him, and then heard her slight and rhythmic breathing. In the darkness, he smelled a faint fragrance, the smell of shampoo used by the girl. At this time, he remembered the joke that Shabier had made by the bonfire, and for a moment he was a little distracted.

But he quickly adjusted his emotions and calmed his breath.

At this moment, he heard footsteps outside the tent, from far to near, from large to small. Someone quietly approached his tent, then lowered his steps and came close secretly.

Who is it?!

Mo Yun supported his hand and turned around and got up. His sound also shocked Chi Muyun, who was lying beside him. She opened her eyes wide, but did not make any sound. He raised a finger and placed it beside his mouth, indicating that the girl should not speak.

In the darkness, the girl nodded gently.

He turned his attention to the outside of the tent. At this moment, a blurred figure was reflected by the campfire on the dust cloth of the tent. The figure bent over, lowered its steps, and slowly approached. His shadow became bigger and bigger on the curtain of the tent, gradually elongating. The flames jumped and rotated, and the shadows kept jumping, which seemed very terrifying in the darkness.

But the intuition didn't sound the alarm.

Just as the figure approached the tent, Mo Yun immediately unzipped the zipper with his hand and shouted angrily:

"who!"

The person outside the tent came over carefully, but he didn't expect that the person in the tent would notice it. At this moment, when he was frightened, the man sat on the ground and screamed in shock.

His voice sounded, and Mo Yun could hear it. This was the voice of the foodie Pompeii. He looked closely and found that the white young man was sitting on the ground, patting his chest, and gasping for breath.

"What are you doing?" he frowned.

Pompeii got up from the ground, and the fire reflected his panicked face, "I, I just wanted to come and see if you are asleep... Mo, you almost scared me to death!"

"You scared me too."

"Why are you so keen? Do you also have your eyes open when you fall asleep?" Pompeii complained.

"Haha, this is a necessary quality for a qualified explorer."

"Okay okay, I'll just come out to solve the physiological problems." Pompeii patted his belly with his hand, "I dare not come here in this place, bye." Then he turned around and was about to leave.

"Go to the toilet?" Mo Yun narrowed his eyes.

According to the routine he is familiar with, in horror movies, the teammates around the protagonist always kill for no reason, which will always trigger some dangers and lead to the team's destruction. Although this is a survival game, not a horror movie, and the possibility of such a tragedy happening around him is very small, but he still has to be careful if he is not afraid of ten thousand or ten thousand.

"Wait!" he shouted decisively.

"Ah?" Pompeii turned around.

"I'll go with you."

"You want to go too?" Pompeii asked in confusion.

"Yes." Mo Yun nodded.

"All right."

Just as Mo Yun was about to follow, Chi Muyun leaned out in the tent behind him and whispered: "Mo Yun..."

"Well……"

At this moment, Mo Yun thought of another possibility.

That is another routine in horror movies. The protagonist with ability left the heroine because of a trivial matter. When he came back, he found that the heroine had died tragically at home. Then the protagonist wiped away his tears and embarked on a road of revenge for the villain...

"Pompeii, you'd better go by yourself." Thinking of this, Mo Yun immediately spoke.

"What?" Pompeii looked at Mo Yun with an inexplicable look.

"I have something to do, I'll go later."

"Uh, okay, okay." Pompeii also saw Chi Muyun behind the tent, seemed to understand something, and muttered: "It's trouble to have a girlfriend."

"Don't go too far." Mo Yun reminded.

"Don't worry." Pompeii waved casually and walked towards the woods outside the camp.

Mo Yun watched him gradually move away, returned to the tent, and zipped it up casually.

Chi Muyun whispered: "I'm sorry, I'm still a little scared when you leave..."

"It's okay, I can understand." Mo Yun comforted, "Go to bed early."

"Um."

The two of them then lay back on their original positions.

But as soon as Mo Yun closed his eyes, he heard a harsh scream outside the tent.

"ah----"

"ah------"

"Help!!!"

It was Pompeii's scream! His voice was shrill, as if he was suffering a great pain. But the scream lasted only two seconds. Before Mo Yun could come back to his senses, the scream disappeared, and the death-like silence was restored outside the tent.
Chapter completed!
