Chapter 26: The Wedding in a Dream, a Rules-Based Dungeon!

Zhan Xinyue was not too flustered and calmly pointed at Ye Xuan.

"I choose him."

As soon as she made her choice, Ye Xuan's name automatically appeared on the invitation.

Although he was frozen in place due to his infatuation with love, he remained perfectly conscious. The more he wanted Zhan Xinyue before, the more he wanted to destroy her now.

"Squeak~"

The manor gates opened, and a melodious and poignant background music began to play. At the same time, a large mission prompt appeared before everyone's eyes.

Congratulations on successfully activating the seven-player rule-based dungeon, "Wedding in a Dream"!

Players are requested to follow these rules.

1. The time taken to choose the groom cannot exceed 3 seconds.

[2. Once the bride and groom enter the manor, they must hold hands, and no one else may leave a 10-meter radius of the bride and groom.]

3. The boss must be defeated within two hours.

What happens if the rules aren't followed?

He was extremely displeased when he looked at the second rule, driven mad by love.

[Die, and all game points and 30 years of lifespan will be deducted.]

"What?!!!"

Not only were those who were infatuated with love unable to accept the punishment, but others also began to back down.

"Zhan Xinyue, when the boss asked us to help you, he didn't mention such serious consequences."

"Yes, this is too much, I can't accept it. Whoever wants to help can help, I don't care anymore..."

Except for the girl in charge of the investigation, everyone else was ready to leave, since the punishment far outweighed any benefits they could gain.

Even if it's an order from above, they don't want to obey it, after all, it's their own lifespan.

Zhan Xinyue wasn't surprised, after all, they were just ordinary colleagues, but she didn't want to harm Ye Xuan.

"Wuxin, I'm going to abandon this mission. I'm sorry to have made you come all this way for nothing. I'll give you ample compensation."

Ye Xuan simply shook his head upon hearing this, "Don't be so naive. You probably can't give up now, even if you wanted to."

"Heh, this is the first time I've ever heard of a mission that can't be abandoned. If you want money, just say so. Don't pretend to be an expert here."

Driven mad by love, he sneered. No matter how strong Ye Xuan was, in his eyes he was just an object to be driven.

"Then why don't you try walking it?"

The most frustrating thing about rule-based dungeons is that they have hidden rules, and Ye Xuan suffered a lot of losses in his previous life.

If Zhan Xinyue hadn't chosen him without hesitation, they would probably be back at the resurrection point by now.

Before the two men, driven mad by love, could make a move, the two men with defensive abilities couldn't resist any longer.

"Zhan Xinyue, I'm sorry, our lifespans are already short, we can't gamble here with you."

"I understand, it's okay, I'll explain to the boss."

After they finished speaking, they requested to log off, and then...

"Ah! Ah!"

Under the horrified gazes of the crowd, their bodies were gradually corroded away. Apart from screaming in agony, they could not move an inch and could only watch helplessly as they perished.

4. You cannot log off before the dungeon is completed.

"Why wasn't this rule displayed before?!"

Driven mad by love, seeing the belated system notification, fear instantly gripped her heart, and she turned to Ye Xuan, cursing angrily.

"You know that, don't you? Why didn't you stop them? They didn't have much time left to live, and you did it on purpose."

"You must have been sent by another conglomerate, Zhan Xinyue! Look at what you've done!"

Ye Xuan glanced at him dismissively. "What's your name? Haven't I made myself clear enough?"

That's how hidden rules work; they only appear in the system notification after being triggered, which is the most frustrating part.

The rewards for this task are as follows:

[1. Bride Gun Soul successfully completed job change]

2. The groom receives 1000 attribute orbs, and everyone else receives 300 attribute orbs.

[3. For each key item obtained, the BOSS's attributes will be reduced by at least 5%, and the rewards will be increased by at least 5%]

[4. For each hidden rule discovered, a random attribute point of 500 will be awarded.]

"What good is this reward! The more of those beads you use, the faster you die!"

He was extremely dissatisfied with the reward because, compared to the punishment, it was utterly useless.

Ye Xuan was very satisfied with all of this. 1000 attribute beads could directly increase the basic attributes by several thousand points, which was enough for an ordinary player to level up dozens of times.

"Let's go, the countdown has begun."

Ye Xuan took Zhan Xinyue's hand first and strode towards the villa in the manor. In the upper right corner of their field of vision, an electronic countdown was constantly decreasing its numbers.

Taking items from a rule-based dungeon is not an easy task.

Due to the second rule, the others could only hurry to catch up, fearing that they would be more than 10 meters away from their position.

The wedding ceremony should be held in the backyard of the manor. Ye Xuan did not choose to go directly there. Given the nature of this kind of dungeon, if the boss is not weakened, the whole team will definitely be wiped out.

Inside the manor villa, Ye Xuan was searching each room one by one, while the love-obsessed man, looking at their tightly clasped hands, suddenly spoke up.

Hidden rule: The groom can be substituted.

Please state the alternative conditions.

"The bride requested a change of bride."

[Congratulations on discovering the hidden rule for being crazy in love! Reward: +500 Attack, awarded upon completion of the task]

Everyone heard the system notification and looked at the excited man who was madly in love.

"Don't worry, I'm just hiding the reward in the rules. It won't make things difficult for you, Crescent."

He had been suppressed ever since he met Ye Xuan, and now he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Compared to the attribute beads that are the final reward for completing a mission, the attributes that are directly rewarded by these hidden rules are what he can actually obtain.

"Yueyue, here are wedding dresses and evening gowns."

As expected of someone with a talent for investigation, Yun Xiaoqi discovered an important clue in an ordinary bedroom. This room was almost 10 meters away from Ye Xuan and the others, which showed her considerable courage.

[A key item has been discovered; the bride has 10 seconds to choose her wedding dress.]

There are three outfits to choose from: casual wear, a wedding dress, and a suit of armor.

"Let's choose a wedding dress, after all, it's a wedding." As a girl, Xiaoqi naturally felt that a wedding dress was essential.

Ye Xuan held a different view. According to the records of the Mechanical Heart, only fierce generals who fought across thousands of miles possessed the Gun Soul.

"Let's choose the battle armor," Ye Xuan suggested.

Deep down, Zhan Xinyue wanted to choose a wedding dress, but she also felt she should listen to Ye Xuan.

【3...2...】

The countdown did not pause, so Zhan Xinyue had no choice but to give the answer in the last second.

"I choose the armor!"

[Incorrect selection: BOSS strength increased by 20%, rewards reduced by 20%]

Upon hearing this, the love-crazed woman pointed fiercely at Ye Xuan, "He's definitely here to cause trouble! Xinyue, change the groom, I'll be the groom, I won't let you down..."

Ye Xuan didn't explain much, but simply pulled Zhan Xinyue along to start searching the next room.

"From now on, whatever advice I give, unless it's something you truly believe in, don't accept it, understand?"
