Hearing this, everyone looked at Lin Yu in shock.
Fang Xinran: "The birthday boy really is different, huh? You even have game-breaking skills like that?"
Mo Shangying: "Wow! Is Little Yu afraid to let me speak? I don't have any juicy gossip!"
Tang Yimian: "Maybe Junior Brother Yu just wants to add some entertainment value."
Xia Yiwei: "Teacher Tang, you're thinking too highly of Little Lin Yu. He's definitely just scared of Ying'er talking!"
Shen Jiuyi: "That really is a nice skill card."
Huang Feirong: "Does only Big Yu have one? Is there no way for us to get some skills? This is so frustrating."
"..."
Lin Yu turned a deaf ear to all the discussions and doubts.
He shrugged his shoulders and said roguishly:
"Can't help it. Since I'm the birthday boy today, everything follows my command."
"When you guys were hiding so desperately, you should have thought about it—I'm definitely someone who holds a grudge!"
"Host, hurry up and put the signs on the three of them, haha!"
Lin Yu laughed triumphantly. He looked relaxed on the surface, but he couldn't relax inside.
"Player Number 7, minus one point."
Maomao, while preparing cards for everyone, conveniently enforced the rules again with impartiality.
Chen Qimeng shook her head in annoyance and said:
"My 'Forbidden Action' card says... looking at Little Yu, right?"
Maomao gave a thumbs up:
"Correct answer."
Chen Qimeng let out a long breath and took the card off her forehead.
Although she guessed right, she still sacrificed three points.
It was still unclear what losing points actually meant.
Chen Qimeng just felt her luck was bad, drawing such a difficult card right off the bat.
But when she saw the cards on Tang Yimian, Fang Xinran, and Mo Shangying...
Her previous thoughts vanished instantly!
Tang Yimian: [Touch Hair].
Fang Xinran: [Speak].
Mo Shangying: [Watch Others Laugh].
Lin Yu looked at their cards: "???"
So there were normal cards!
He thought everything was related to him.
Since there were normal cards, things became much easier to handle.
At least it told everyone that the content of the "Forbidden Action" cards was completely random.
"Player Number 1 (Mo Shangying), minus one point."
Maomao enforced the law strictly, not letting anyone off for making a mistake.
Mo Shangying frowned and guessed:
"Is my card... laughing?"
Maomao: "Very close."
Ying'er kept a straight face, looking as if she had a well-thought-out plan.
Lin Yu: "..."
The game was designed by her, to begin with, so what was there to be proud of in guessing her own design?
The roulette on the TV started spinning again.
As luck would have it.
This time, the number "1" appeared!
Mo Shangying stood up confidently again, looking at Lin Yu with a smile.
Maomao: "Player Number 1, minus one point."
Mo Shangying pressed the card on her forehead: "The content on my card is, watching others laugh!"
Maomao: "Congratulations, correct answer."
Lin Yu: "..."
Ying'er's confident appearance was full of oppressive pressure.
It was impossible to imagine what she would do next.
Before long.
The content on the TV screen froze, and a new "Making Up Nonsense" topic appeared.
Lin Yu didn't even look at it and directly pulled out a card:
"I want to activate a skill, Iron Chain Link!"
Maomao immediately came to Lin Yu's side and took his skill card.
"[Iron Chain Link] skill activated!"
"The question faced by Player Number 1 will be answered by another person chosen by the birthday boy."
"Player Number 1 immediately receives a 'Forbidden Action' card."
Mo Shangying shrugged and said:
"Little Yu, are you really not letting me speak?"
"You used the skill so quickly without even looking at the question!"
Lin Yu waved his hand nonchalantly and said:
"The question isn't important. What's important is giving the game inventor a hard time."
"Let's see if you can develop some good games in the future instead of just thinking about how to prank people!"
These words were truly Lin Yu's heartfelt thoughts, spoken without any exaggeration.
Afterward.
Lin Yu looked at the TV and saw the question displayed:
"Please choose the player with the best cooking skills at the table and describe one of their dishes."
Lin Yu: "..."
So there were normal questions!
Not all questions revolved around him alone.
Why didn't anyone tell him in advance that normal questions existed?
Looking at the previous few questions, Lin Yu was almost triggered.
If he had known it was such a question, why would he have used a skill?
This was purely a waste of a skill card!
It was making his already impoverished household situation even worse.
The skill had already been activated, and the card had been taken away.
Obviously.
It was absolutely too late to regret it now.
Lin Yu looked around at everyone and pointed at Chi Qingchi, saying:
"When it comes to eating, let's ask our food expert to say a few words!"
"She is definitely the authority in this area."
Hearing this, Chi Qingchi happily rose from her seat.
At the same time.
She didn't forget to give Lin Yu a thumbs up:
"The birthday boy really has good taste, knowing who the expert is in this field, hehe."
"Actually, in the apartment, I haven't eaten many people who cook..."
Hearing this, Lin Yu couldn't help but lament in his heart:
If there were more, would there be anyone left in the apartment? Wouldn't you have eaten them all!
You literally can't even speak properly!
Chi Qingchi rubbed her chin and struggled for a while before saying seriously:
"Clear Breeze Noodles!"
"The most unpalatable dish I've eaten in the apartment is the Clear Breeze Noodles made by our birthday boy."
"The texture can be described as... very hard. It clumps into a ball as soon as it enters the mouth."
"The soup base itself is very thick and paste-like. Drinking it makes the throat feel freezing cold."
"It feels like the stomach has fallen into an ice cave, very uncomfortable."
"The food Auntie Qimeng makes is also... very unpalatable!"
"But compared to the birthday boy's Clear Breeze Noodles, it's still lacking... a lot!"
"I'm not saying this on purpose, really. Everyone who has eaten it, find a chance to avoid tasting it."
Little Chi answered very seriously.
Lin Yu was a bit surprised. He didn't expect her to like the noodles he made casually so much.
She even praised them publicly in such a special way.
It seemed he should find a chance to satisfy her stomach again later.
Immediately after.
The number wheel on the TV spun again.
This time.
The number stopped on "2".
Ye Mengfu, sitting next to Mo Shangying, saw the number. Her eyes twitched as she slowly stood up.
She had been chanting silently in her heart just now: Don't pick me, don't pick me, don't pick me...
As a result.
What she feared really came to pass!
...
] [Lone Wolf, No Male Gaze] [Protagonist is pursued early on; extreme protagonist-stans, stay away!] The "Carnival Paradise" descends and slowly devours the real world in the form of a game. By chance, Zhu Yan awakens the talent [Roleplay], becoming one of the first beta players. He thought he could develop safely, but after clearing the first instance, he is branded by humanity as the chief culprit behind the game's spread—a traitorous villain. A villain? Who would ever... become one! He'll be the villain! From then on, Zhu Yan is not only a player but also a lackey for the Carnival Paradise. Between the straight path and the crooked path, he chooses the con. With his left hand, he dons the villain's mantle, staging scenes within instances, infuriating players who decry him as a despicable traitor, all while the game happily promotes him. With his right hand, he joins the non-human organization "Fangcun Mountain," which opposes the Carnival Paradise, transforming into a mysterious player who slaughters game bosses, earning cheers of "Long live the expert!" from fellow players. Gradually, Zhu Yan rises to become an S-rank human player in Fangcun Mountain's archives, while also being the Carnival Paradise's certified top game Boss. But when the final war erupts and both major factions place their hopes in him— Players tag his various aliases: "Experts, this offensive depends on you." The Carnival Paradise's supreme Boss throws an arm around his neck: "Bro, you're the iron, I'm the steel; you can't let me down again!"
with countless casualties. As a top-tier gamer, Liu Xuan volunteered to join the fight, intending to dominate with his skills, but instead he obtained the hidden class: [Pacifist]. Unable to attack. Unable to use active skills. Fortunately, with each level gained, he acquired a new passive skill. And so, armed with a body full of passives, Liu Xuan slaughtered his way through the battlefield of ten thousand races!

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
end. Thus one must continue to cultivate, and become a saint or great emperor, in order to prolong one's life. Chen Xia, however, completely reversed this. Since his transmigration, he has gained immortality, and also a system that awards him with attribute points for every year he lives.
