Chapter 15 The Familiar School

Yuan Muye was dumbfounded again. Now, he was standing on a familiar-looking school playground.

Just as he was wondering what was going on, the system's voice echoed in his mind once more: "Congratulations, host, on completing the task. You can claim a mysterious gift pack. Do you want to claim it now?"

"Later."

Although Yuan Muye was very interested in this mysterious gift pack, he just wanted to figure out what was happening in front of him.

It seemed that he was still in an illusion!

It was strange. Why didn't the person who created the illusion just come out? Why create illusion after illusion for him? What was the point?

The most frustrating thing now was that Yuan Muye was completely helpless.

A trace of fear couldn't help but arise in Yuan Muye's heart. If he stayed in the illusion forever, did that mean danger would appear one after another?

If things went wrong, he might even die in this illusion.

"Come out! Why don't you come out?" Yuan Muye shouted loudly at his surroundings, but no one responded.

He felt a little desperate for a moment. He couldn't get out of here, and that person wouldn't come out either. What should he do?

Yuan Muye stood on the playground, at a loss. After calming down, he thought that since there was no way to leave, he might as well continue to see what was in this illusion.

At this moment, Ghost Advisor came up and reminded Yuan Muye in a low voice, "My lord, I seem to sense a different aura."

Hearing this, Yuan Muye's heart was shaken. He looked at Ghost Advisor in surprise and said, "Oh? What did you sense?"

"I can't describe it in words, but I can sense that it's very dangerous." Ghost Advisor's expression was very serious.

Yuan Muye subconsciously glanced around. The huge playground was empty. After a moment, he suddenly remembered that this playground seemed to be the one from his elementary school.

He walked around the playground and looked at the surrounding scenery. He was even more certain that this was the elementary school he used to attend.

It was really strange. He had just seen his old classmates, and then he entered another illusion. Would he meet his old classmates again this time and then enter the next illusion?

If that was the case, then he would be stuck in this cycle endlessly. It was too terrifying...

Yuan Muye sighed. Since he couldn't get out of here, he could only wander around inside, trying to find a breakthrough.

As he walked, he came to the classroom where he used to have classes. If he remembered correctly, the elementary school he used to attend had already been torn down.

Seeing his old elementary school here could be considered a fortunate thing.

However, it was hard to say whether there was any danger inside.

Yuan Muye stood at the classroom door, looking at the familiar and unfamiliar scenery inside. He couldn't help but think of the past. He always liked to bully his deskmate, but he didn't allow others to bully his deskmate.

Just as he was thinking, a voice suddenly sounded behind him.

"Who are you? Why are you here?"

This voice was very familiar!

Yuan Muye immediately turned his head to look. As expected, he saw a familiar face, but what surprised him was that so many years had passed, and his deskmate, Jiang Lin, still looked like a child.

"Jiang Lin, is that really you?" Yuan Muye suddenly felt like he had returned to his childhood, but he quickly realized that this was an illusion. Everything that appeared in front of him was fake, including Jiang Lin.

Jiang Lin stared with wide eyes, looking at Yuan Muye with a puzzled expression. "How do you know my name? Do you know me?"

"I'm Yuan Muye!" Yuan Muye blurted out.

Hearing this, Jiang Lin laughed loudly, walked up to Yuan Muye, sized him up, and then shook his head, saying, "Do you think I'm stupid? How could you be Yuan Muye? Yuan Muye is only a little taller than me at most."

It was normal that he didn't believe him. After all, there was a big difference between how he looked now and how he looked when he was a child.

"Whether you believe it or not, I really am Yuan Muye."

Although Yuan Muye felt that there was no need to argue about this, he still wanted to explain his identity.

Jiang Lin looked at Yuan Muye thoughtfully, his eyes filled with disbelief in addition to doubt.

"You're really Yuan Muye?"

Yuan Muye nodded firmly. It was strange that he couldn't tell whether the Jiang Lin in front of him was a human or a ghost.

So, he turned to ask Ghost Advisor, "Can you tell what he is?"

Ghost Advisor stared at Jiang Lin for a long time and shook his head. "I can't tell, but..."

Faced with Ghost Advisor's hesitation, Yuan Muye immediately lost his patience. "Just say what you want to say."

"My lord, I seem to sense that aura from him. Please be careful." Ghost Advisor also felt a little incredible.

But in an illusion, anything could happen. It was nothing to be surprised about.

Yuan Muye was stunned. It seemed that from the moment he entered this place, danger had been approaching him. There was no way to escape.

However, Yuan Muye didn't directly expose Jiang Lin's identity. Instead, he asked him, "Can you tell me why you're here?"

Jiang Lin didn't answer his question. Instead, he took his hand and walked forward.

Yuan Muye was very strange, but he didn't interrupt Jiang Lin. He wanted to see what this little guy was up to.

A few minutes later, Jiang Lin led Yuan Muye to the top floor.

When they were in school, the door to the top floor was always locked, mainly to prevent students from sneaking up there.

Standing on the top floor, everything in the school could be seen clearly.

Yuan Muye looked at Jiang Lin with a puzzled expression and said, "What did you bring me here for?"

Jiang Lin raised his head and glanced at him, then revealed a strange smile. "Yuan Muye, do you want to create a brand new world?"

When he heard these words, an ominous premonition suddenly welled up in Yuan Muye's heart. Although the person in front of him wasn't the real Jiang Lin, what he said should be real.

"What do you mean by that?" Yuan Muye frowned. It was hard to imagine that such words would come out of a child's mouth.

However, if these words really came out of a child's mouth, others would only treat it as innocent childishness, but the current situation was obviously not the case!

This was really disgusting!

Jiang Lin grinned, and the childish look on his face instantly disappeared, replaced by a sinister expression.

"Don't you remember what you said before?" Jiang Lin asked rhetorically, his tone also noticeably colder.

Yuan Muye frowned. He had said a lot of things before. How could he remember so much?

"What did I say before?"

That's not right. How could this guy know what he had said before?
