Infinite: Dawn Game

Chapter 644 78 days

"...Okay, I'll drink it."

Xu Han, with a pained expression and trembling hands, took the goat milk from Yu Shijiu and tilted his head back to gulp it down—

Yu Shijiu quickly caught the bottom of the bottle and held it up.

"Ah...cough cough cough—"

Xu Han choked and coughed after taking a big gulp of goat milk, and he looked terrible.

Yu Shijiu carefully tightened the cap on the goat milk bottle he had snatched from his hand, a hint of heartache showing in his eyes.

"Cough cough cough—Shi Jiu?"

Xu Han's face turned bright red from choking. He coughed and, leaning against the wall, wiped the goat milk that had spilled from his mouth, saying:

"This goat milk is so fishy... I'm speechless. I almost threw up when I swallowed it. Speaking of which, does fresh goat milk need to be sterilized at high temperatures? I seem to remember that freshly squeezed goat milk needs to be sterilized to remove parasites..."

Xu Han muttered to himself for a while, but then he saw Yu Shijiu looking at the half-empty bottle of goat milk he had drunk, and he choked.

"What are you looking at?"

Xu Han asked curiously, "Then what else is there to see?"

"I'm thinking about something."

Looking at the goat milk in his hand, Yu Shijiu asked, "Brother Xu Han, do you think this goat milk will always be available?"

"Of course, there are several ewes in the hold—"

Xu Han's instinctive response abruptly stopped. He stared at Yu Shijiu in disbelief, then stammered several times, his voice hoarse as he said:

"You mean, we might not be able to get this goat milk anymore?!"

What happens if you can't get goat milk?

Xu Han thought of the players in the cabin on the first floor, and his face, which was originally flushed, gradually turned pale.

He and Yu Shijiu did indeed have several bottles of goat milk that they squeezed out out of curiosity to collect... It seemed like a lot, but if so many people used it together, it wouldn't be enough at all.

Thinking of a certain possibility, Xu Han shuddered: "No, no way, there can't be only this one solution, right?"

"Feifei" and Yu Shijiu both gave him strange looks. The former continued to stare blankly (pretending), while the latter put the goat milk back into his system backpack and looked up at the deep corridor.

“Although I really want to agree with you,” Yu Shijiu said with a smile, “I always feel that agreeing is like lying.”

Xu Han was both amused and exasperated, his face scrunched up like a bitter gourd. "Just kidding, no, I was just saying."

"We'll leave that aside for now."

Yu Shijiu preferred a more practical approach. Gripping his axe tightly, he glanced sideways at the thunder and lightning outside the window and pondered:

"I think nothing will happen tonight, what do you think, Brother Xu Han?"

Nothing will happen?

Xu Han nodded reluctantly, "Can I say that I think the same way you do?"

"all right."

Yu Shijiu smiled and nodded: "How about we go to the lower deck again? Of course, if you're not scared, Brother Xu Han, we can go back to the dance floor for one last look before we go to the lower deck."

He was quite worried about He Lingling.

Xu Han closed his eyes and tried to breathe: "I think it's worth considering—no, it's absolutely worth going!"

Xu Han spoke the last few words with great solemnity, which made Lu Chusheng glance at him several times.

—Exaggerated.

Lu Chusheng's gaze fell on Xu Han's trembling, tense hands, his eyelids drooping.

—Where is the warmth? My face is pale with fright and my whole body is trembling... It doesn't seem to have anything to do with warmth at all.

No one knew what Captain Lu was thinking, but Yu Shijiu's eyes narrowed with delight after receiving Xu Han's response.

"Brother Xu Han~"

Yu Shijiu clings to Xu Han's hand and obediently places it on the hem of her clothes.

Xu Han: "?"

The boy opposite him winked at him: "Hold on tight, okay? I'll protect you."

Xu Han: "...Okay, okay, okay."

Xu Han, who said "good" three times in a row, looked a little dazed, but still held tightly to Yu Shijiu's clothes, his mind a jumble of chaotic thoughts and trembling with fear.

One moment, it's the delicate, fair-skinned Xu Han with an angel halo, complaining with a bitter face that she's too weak to do it; the next moment, it's the serious-looking Xu Han in a black suit, saying that a grown man must be brave enough to face danger...

Caught in the middle, Xu Han felt dizzy and lightheaded: "..."

He sighed deeply, closed his eyes tightly, and then opened them again, trying to cheer himself up.

You can do it! Xu Han, you definitely can! You've successfully desensitized! It's just a few sheep, what's there to be afraid of?! He's not afraid! He's not afraid at all!

Perhaps because he had successfully brainwashed himself, when Lu Chusheng looked up at Xu Han again, he was stunned for a few seconds by the overwhelming fighting spirit revealed in the other's eyes.

"?"

Lu Chusheng scratched the floor with some confusion.

How come he suddenly seems like a completely different person?

Off-screen, An Jie couldn't help but laugh at Xu Han's bluffing act.

She took the sliced ​​watermelon from Chen Yi, popped a piece into her mouth, and felt the cool, refreshing sweetness flow through her mouth. An Jie squinted her eyes in delight.

"Xiao Han has made progress."

Chen Yi, carrying his own bowl of watermelon, sat down next to An Jie and said cheerfully:

"It seems that Shi Jiu is really good at inspiring the people around her."

Anjie smiled and shook her head: "As long as the two children can protect their own lives, nothing else matters."

Chen Yi took a bite of watermelon and mumbled:

"Sister An, do you think this game instance is nearing its end?"

"almost."

Anjie stared at the two teenagers and an orange cat walking in the corridor on the screen. "It'll probably take another seven or eight days."

Chen Yi asked in surprise, "Seven or eight more days? I thought it would be done tonight."

“Not yet.” Sister An shook her head: “If it really has something to do with sacrifice… then we still need a catalyst.”

"Introduction?"

Anjie switched to He Lingling's live stream, lowered her eyes to watch the girl on the screen whose black pupils were getting bigger and bigger, and said quietly:

"Cruise ships are 'paradises' for the wealthy to indulge in pleasure and unleash their disgusting desires. If it weren't for some irresistible reason, why would they be willing to destroy them?"

Chen Yi frowned, his chubby face scrunched up: "So..."

"The next seven or eight days will pass quickly."

Anjie said, "But the only time they really have left to clear the customs is probably the last day."

----------

"……Hahaha……"

"...What an interesting performance..."

"Her piano playing is so good..."

"She's so beautiful. If only I could have her stay with me for one night..."

"A well-behaved and sensible girl is the best..."

"..."

When He Lingling was fully conscious, she heard a cacophony of discussions around her.

He Lingling looked up in a panic and saw that the male and female guests whose faces were indistinct were engrossed in the piano music coming from the exhibition platform, pushing and shoving each other and dancing.

"He Lingling".

A familiar female voice came from beside her.
