In the evening, Li Yang ordered a takeout hot pot meal. She was about to enter the dungeon and didn't know what it was like inside. She didn't know whether she would have to buy food herself. In case it was just a pile of bread to eat for a few days, she would at least eat something good in advance to comfort her stomach.
Mo Qing was very excited when he saw the variety of dishes. He came over with the bowl without Li Yang reminding him, and he was almost drooling.
"Guaiyi shouldn't eat human food, right?" Li Yang couldn't help but find it a little funny seeing his greedy look, "Can you taste it?"
"Of course I can eat it. I can't eat ordinary food, but I can eat food with a strong flavor."
"Then why do most weird things like to eat people?"
"Because in Weird's eyes, only things that can make you stronger and replenish your strength are considered real food. These things are just snacks at best."
Hearing this, Li Yang nodded thoughtfully and cooked himself a piece of tripe.
Mo Qing followed suit and also reached into the hot pot with tripe.
He also learned how to make duck intestines like Li Yang, and he also wanted to eat the quail eggs that were poured out.
The two of them ate the meal as if they were starving, afraid that if they were a little slow the food they liked would be taken away by the other.
After finishing the meal, Li Yang kicked Mo Qing under the table and said, "Clean up the table, okay? Put the leftovers in the refrigerator. You can eat them tomorrow when you're hungry."
"I don't want to eat. I want to go into the dungeon with you." Mo Qing touched his stomach and was obviously full.
"You really want to go in? Have you made an appointment?"
"It's the same if we make an appointment after we get in." Mo Qing stood up and put all the dishes into the refrigerator, looking very proud. "Brother can use the back door."
Li Yang rolled his eyes at him and cleaned the table with talisman paper. "Remember to pretend you don't know me when you go in, so as not to be noticed."
"Why? So what if they noticed? Normal people and monsters shouldn't be able to do anything to you, right?"
"Because I like to keep a low profile, is that reason enough?"
"…Alright."
In fact, Li Yang doesn't like to keep a low profile. It doesn't matter to her whether she is high-profile or low-profile. She just doesn't want to cause trouble.
Given Mo Qing's personality, it's hard to say whether his identity will be exposed after he enters the dungeon. Some netizens are quite omnipotent these days. If it is discovered that he is a weird person who possessed the player in the previous dungeon, Li Yang will inevitably be subject to various conspiracy theories if he gets too close to him.
Weirdos are villains who are meant to invade the human world. If you get close to them, isn't that treason?
She didn't want to be chased and scolded by a group of people standing on the moral high ground. It would really affect her mood.
However, Li Yang was too lazy to explain these to Mo Qing, and he might not understand even if he explained.
The two of them sat on the sofa, one browsing his phone and the other watching the animal channel, each enjoying their own game.
Until Mo Qing bent down to pour himself a glass of water, when he turned around, Li Yang had disappeared, leaving only the mobile phone on the sofa.
"Oh, you're going in now?"
Mo Qing raised his eyebrows and snapped his fingers.
All the electrical appliances in the house were turned off, and the house fell into silent darkness.
Then Mo Qing himself disappeared into the house and was out of sight.

Li Yang only blinked an eye, and the scene in front of her changed. If she hadn't reacted quickly, she would have sat down on the ground.
There was some noise all around. Li Yang stood on tiptoe to take a look. He seemed to be in a small square, and everywhere he looked was crowded with people.
There are shorter houses in the distance with torches burning outside. The wooden fences are very new and look like they are regularly maintained. There are also some larger houses with cows in the backyards.
Li Yang observed and found that this place was very similar to a small Western village, except that the people in front of him were all wearing real-world clothes, which was a bit of a mix and match.
She looked down and saw that the clothes she was wearing were the same ones she wore at home. It seemed that she didn't get any game clothes this time?
The B-level copy is a bit stingy, and you are not allowed to play the dress-up game.
No, the point is, are all these people players?
If the clothes didn't match the background, she would really think it was an NPC!
"Shit, how many people are there?" Li Yang tried to count them, but it was dark and there were many people, plus they were constantly moving, so he couldn't figure out the total number.
The live broadcast has started, and the number of people in Li Yang's live broadcast room has increased rapidly, and now there are thousands of people.
[Red Hair, you're here again?! Even the donkeys in the production team wouldn't dare enter the dungeon so diligently!]
[The image of her picking at her strange eyeballs is still vivid in my mind... Why do I feel so scared when I see her now?]
[Hey, Ruoruo! Why don't you take a few more days off? It's only been a while since the last dungeon ended.]
[This is hilarious. Is there really anyone who likes this kind of selfish person? I'll see if she waits until there are only a few people left before she's willing to kill the boss again.]
If she hadn't used up all the clearance spots last time, she probably wouldn't have made a move. That's just how people are. They don't care about the lives of others unless they're threatened.
[Please stop being so mean, I already found the tool to clear the level, I just gave it to someone else, otherwise I would have cleared it myself a long time ago.]
[That's pretty stupid. Du Ruo's ability is hers. She can use it whenever she wants. You have such great love in your heart, why don't you become a ghost hunter and save all living things instead of giving orders to others?]
As soon as the show started, the barrage of comments was already noisy. The number of people supporting Li Yang and those who criticized Li Yang was actually about the same, both relatively small, but unfortunately they both had strong fighting power, making their numbers seem very large.
Most people don't comment and just want to watch quietly.
"86."
A clear and clean male voice came from behind.
Li Yang turned around and saw that it was indeed Mo Qing.
But he was still cooperative, his expression was very calm, and his eyes seemed like he was looking at a stranger.
"With so many, can the weird things in the dungeon handle it?"
[86 isn't a lot for a B-level instance. The B-level instances opened a few days ago had over a hundred players.]
[Hey, this guy is really handsome. He and the red-haired guy are quite pleasing to the eye.]
As the dungeon entrance closed, no new players came in, and a black mist rose from the platform in front.
Everyone fell silent. The timid ones retreated to the back of the crowd, while the more experienced players remained standing.
When the black fog dissipated, a 'person' in a white robe appeared on the stage. The sleeves were decorated with gold edges. The overall look was holy and righteous, which was very different from the strange fog just now.
"Eighty-six players in total...two more."
It slowly opened its mouth and the sound was long and distant, as if it was floating from a distant mountain top.
There was constant discussion around.
"Two more, what does that mean?"
"Shouldn't there only be 84 people? What's so special about this number?"
"Shouldn't we be curious about what will happen to the two extra people?"
"Could it mean that two of us are not human?"
Li Yang was also very curious about what the other party meant by "two more people". She glanced at Mo Qing calmly.
There is no doubt that the person who got in through the backdoor must be one of the extra people.
At this time, the strange person on the stage continued to speak: "Since there are two more, let's clean them up."
It slowly turned its neck, as if choosing among dozens of people in the audience.
"You, and you."
As soon as the voice fell, two strange figures with distorted faces and fierce eyes appeared behind it.
In an instant, they flashed in front of the two people who were pointed out, and when they raised their hands, a bloody big knife appeared out of thin air.
There were successive cracking sounds, and the heads of two players fell to the ground, with blood splattering a lot and far away. The other players nearby who did not have time to retreat were all covered in blood.
"ah!!!"
"No, how can we play it like this? Just come up and kill two people?!"
