CHAPTER 557: CHAPTER 543 ISABELLE’S APPEARANCE

"Isabelle, how did she end up here?"

Lin Yi looked at Isabelle, whose face was covered in food, in shock, his face full of disbelief.

As soon as Jade Qilin and Aifula appeared, they joined the ’battle group’ as well, Jade Qilin exclaimed excitedly:

"Wow, so much food."

"All of this is mine, this is also mine, and this too is mine."

Aifula looked on with disdain:

"Can you really eat that much?"

Jade Qilin chuckled:

"This is just a little bit."

At this moment, Zhang Xinying walked out with Wang Zixin holding her hand, Lin Yi quickly squatted down to ask:

"How is it, little girl, are you okay?"

Wang Zixin smiled sweetly and said:

"Just now, Sister Xinying gave me a massage, and now I’m much better."

Lin Yi turned to Zhang Xinying and sincerely said:

"Thank you."

Zhang Xinying rolled her eyes at him:

"You only remember to thank me now?"

Lin Yi smiled awkwardly, recently he had been preoccupied with the things in the game all day, indeed neglecting the girl in front of him a bit.

But fortunately, it was her.

All this time, Zhang Xinying had been selflessly managing these trivial matters for Lin Yi.

Sometimes Lin Yi even wondered if Zhang Xinying’s role in this big family was much stronger than his own.

At this moment, Lin Yi turned his gaze to Isabelle on the dining table outside and asked:

"How did she get here too?"

Zhang Xinying said helplessly:

"When I logged off, she was already beside me."

Lin Yi suddenly had a very bad premonition, it seemed that the game’s impact on reality might not just be limited to him...

For instance, the superpower user with fire control they encountered in Ningzhong City last time, Lin Yi suspected that person’s ability definitely came from the game.

As to how he brought his ability to reality, it was unknown.

Previously, Lin Yi thought it might just be a coincidence, but with Isabelle’s appearance, Lin Yi suddenly realized this matter might not be as simple as he imagined.

Lin Yi asked curiously:

"Can she transform back to her true form here?"

Then Lin Yi got the news:

"Yes, she can!"

The moment he got the answer, Lin Yi felt like his head was going to explode, amazed:

"Really can?"

Zhang Xinying continued:

"Of course she can, I asked about it before."

"Do you want me to ask Isabelle to transform for you?"

"No way!"

Lin Yi quickly refused, startled:

"Are you crazy, transforming here."

Lin Yi hurriedly warned Zhang Xinying:

"In our world, never ever transform back to the true form."

This is not the game!

If truly transforming back to the true form in this world, they’d probably be captured and dissected for research in minutes!

It was then Zhang Xinying noticed Tian Ci and others hadn’t come along:

"Where are they?"

Meanwhile, Tian Ci and the others were having a heated battle with players from the Indonesia War Zone in Border City, which Lin Yi wasn’t interested in, instead sitting leisurely aside, watching the trio eat with relish, well if Jade Qilin counts as people too.

Anyway, considering the overall strength of the Hua Country War Zone now, unless other battle zones united, a single battle zone wouldn’t pose much threat to the Hua Country War Zone.

It was already nearly six o’clock in the early morning of the second day.

The journey to Dragon Island took almost seven or eight hours, and at this moment, the cook Lin Yi hired was preparing breakfast for everyone.

Lin Yi planned to have breakfast, take a nap, and then log back in to continue leveling up.

Because Lin Yi currently had too many tasks piled up together, whether it was the resurrection of the Elf Race Great Elder Gamplov, the return of the Dragon Race, or the Titan tribe’s treasure.

Each task held an irresistible allure for Lin Yi; if not completed soon, Lin Yi would constantly be on edge thinking about them.

This feeling was extremely uncomfortable.

Sitting in the small courtyard in front of the villa, listening to the bickering between Jade Qilin and Aifula, and feeling the cold wind, Lin Yi unknowingly leaned back in his chair and fell asleep.

He didn’t know how much time passed, suddenly awakened by a clamor, Lin Yi opened his eyes, only to see a large table filled with breakfast in front of him.

Steamed buns, fried dough sticks, soybean milk, tofu pudding, millet porridge, white porridge, everything seemed to be there.

Ouyang Hao laughed from the side:

"Boss Feng, you woke up just in time. Any later, you’d only get leftovers."

Zhang Xinying then walked over and took away the blanket Lin Yi was covered with, gently saying:

"Go brush your teeth first, then eat something before continuing to sleep."

Lin Yi lazily stretched, checked the time, and couldn’t believe he had slept for over half an hour.

When Lin Yi returned from washing up, he casually asked:

"How’s the border battle going?"

Xiao He Shen Yanhua laughed from the side:

"That group from India, fighting with them is just like playing around, nothing much really."

Handsome Guo Shaojie held a bowl of white porridge and remarked:

"Towards the end, even Drunken Master had gone off to do a dungeon, nothing challenging at all!"

Ouyang Hao suddenly said:

"But I must say, in the next couple of days, the He Clan and Goryeo might make a move, so let’s not be complacent."

Ouyang Hao then said to Lin Yi:

"Also, Drunken Master told me to ask if you could spare some time to help our war zone capture a city."

"He said we cannot lose the world dungeon, or else our war zone will quickly be surpassed by others."

Lin Yi casually picked up a fried dough stick, took a bite, and thought:

"Okay, I’ll discuss it with him when I log on."

At this moment, Zhang Xinying approached with a bowl of white porridge with pickled vegetables:

"Eat some to warm your stomach, don’t just eat fried dough sticks."

Lin Yi took the bowl of love-filled porridge with a face full of happiness and said gratefully:

"Thank you!"

But Zhang Xinying replied with a roll of her eyes.

Lin Yi chuckled and continued:

"There are only a few days left before the new year, so asking everyone to reach level 50 now isn’t very realistic."

"But after the new year, let’s all focus on leveling up just like before, and get to level 50 as soon as possible."

Everyone understood why Lin Yi was so determined to reach level 50, and they all responded:

"Understood!"

At this moment, Zhang Xinying suddenly sat down beside Lin Yi with a bowl of millet porridge.

Seeing Zhang Xinying with an expression as if she wanted to say something but was hesitating, Lin Yi couldn’t help but be curious:

"Is there something you’re too embarrassed to say?"

Zhang Xinying looked at Lin Yi and finally mustered up the courage to ask:

"After hearing about Yuna’s experience, do you think we should invite her to join our gathering in a few days?"

"After all, she’s now also a member of our mercenary corps."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi was momentarily stunned.

He hesitated for a bit, then said:

"The main thing is, I still don’t know her well enough, so I can’t just take her word for everything."

But then he thought, since she’s now a member of his guild, it wouldn’t be fair to exclude her from activities.

Lin Yi thought for a moment:

"Alright, I’ll go out a bit later when I have some free time."

For someone whose background was unknown, Lin Yi couldn’t easily bring her over here.

After all, the secrets in Lin Yi’s villa were too many.

So before that, Lin Yi felt it necessary to thoroughly understand what kind of person this woman was, and whether she was trustworthy.

Having made a decision, Lin Yi immediately said:

"Alright, I’ll handle this matter, let’s eat first."

Meanwhile, on the balcony of a hotel, Yu Na was holding a cup of instant noodles, leaning against the railing, overlooking the city that was waking up, contemplating her experiences with Lin Yi and the others.

Though she hadn’t contributed significantly during this time, being among such a lively group of teammates, Yu Na once again found the reason to love this game.

Looking at the instant noodles in her hand, Yu Na smiled gently:

"I believe things will get better and better; Yu Na, keep it up!"
