Inside a nightmare-level dungeon.
Chu Fu, along with "Jiao Jiao Bu Jiao" and "Sha Fu Lian Gu," was stationed at the entrance, killing monsters.
Even though two people were missing, Chu Fu's team output hadn't decreased.
After all, clearing the nightmare-level dungeon had significantly boosted Chu Fu's equipment and stats. She had upgraded her weapon to a silver staff and gained a new area-of-effect skill.
Now, her character panel was dazzlingly impressive.

A single boss first-kill bonus, plus three dungeon first-kills—even though her base stats were slightly lower than others, she had now pulled far ahead.
Under the assault of her Dandelion and Bedstraw attacks, supplemented by the area damage from Plague Spread, waves of monsters fell one after another.
Not only that, but the newly joined Sha Fu Lian Gu had brought Chu Fu both surprise and delight, along with a creeping sense of unease.
Sha Fu Lian Gu's talent was:
[Pig "Raising" Expert (A)
Effect 1: Any creature you raise eats excessively; its weight and size far exceed normal forms, with no growth limits.
Effect 2: The size of your summoned contract beast increases by +80%.]
She had chosen the Gu Master class because her username contained the word "Gu," triggering a special job from the system.
When presented with a rare class, who would pick an ordinary one? Sha Fu Lian Gu went for it without hesitation.
The class's first skill was [Contract Gu Insect].
After entering the newbie village, she was harassed by members of the Huan Yu guild. Disgusted by these scumbags, she focused on running quests within the village. She had initially wanted to contract a cat, but her skill wouldn't allow it.
Left with no choice, she contracted a spider instead.
At first, the spider was only the size of a palm. After being fed rabbit meat, rabbit bones, and all sorts of odds and ends, it had grown into a "pig" spider.
Now, it was as big as a washbasin.
Sha Fu Lian Gu had also learned Summon Rat Minion.
According to the constraints of a shrinking potion, her rat minion should have been reduced in size, roughly the size of a stray dog.
But when she summoned it, it turned out to be as large as a Samoyed.
Half an hour into the dungeon, the Samoyed-sized rat minion had grown to the size of an Alaskan Malamute.
Truly a Pig-Raising Expert!
This was insane.
If the rat minion and the spider never died, how massive would they become?
Could she eventually ride them?
Sha Fu Lian Gu had great potential.
They continued killing for another half hour, until Chu Fu suddenly heard a sound.
[System Notice: Your device is attempting to connect to a communicator. Accept or reject communication from tail number: 1285.]
What's this?
Wait—could it be that Feng Zhen Sheng Shou had actually found her senior brother and senior sister, then notified her brother to track her down?
She hastily clicked Accept.
"Accept!"
[Connection successful!]
[User "Brother" is calling you. Answer the call?]
Just as she thought!
Filled with excitement, Chu Fu answered the call.
Under the influence of the "original host's" memories, she now felt that Chu Feng truly was her brother.
He was her only family in this world.
“Brother!” Chu Fu answered the phone.
“Fu Fu!” Chu Feng’s voice trembled with excitement. “Are you okay? Is the game going smoothly? Has anyone been bullying you?”
“Brother, I’m fine. No one dares to bully me. Thank you for buying me the game pod.” Chu Fu was fighting while talking on the phone, and the squeaking sounds of the rats reached Chu Feng’s ears as well.
“Good, good, good. As long as you’re awake in the game, that’s what matters. Remember to stay safe, don’t take any risks, and protect your character.
Later, I’ll link a bank card to your account. Buy more equipment. In ten days, when the village defense battle starts, if you can’t win, just run. Head to Fengdu Town Fortress, understand?
Even if you don’t level up, it’s fine. Just wait another year, and I’ll find a way to wake you up.
And even if your character dies, don’t blame yourself. Call me, or have a friend pass a message to me. I’ll apply for a new server for you.”
Chu Feng kept giving instructions.
He hesitated, but didn’t mention the game’s invasion.
When Chu Fu was still in a coma, he dared to talk about it because no one was around.
Now, doctors surrounded him, excited about the plant patient waking up. He could only hint at it subtly.
Chu Fu naturally understood what he meant and nodded repeatedly.
“Brother, don’t worry. I will.”
“Mm. Then give me your friend’s phone number now. And…” Chu Feng said with a hint of jealousy, “You’re still young, so don’t hang out with boys too much. Spend more time with girls, you hear?”
Chu Fu couldn’t help but laugh. “Oh, Brother, you’re so nosy! Fine, fine. I’m playing with a girl right now. I’ll give you a number!”
Then, Chu Fu turned to Jiao Jiao Bu Jiao.
“Sister Jiao Jiao…”
“I heard. It’s just a phone number. Write this down: 188XXXXX888.”
After that, Chu Fu also noted down the numbers of the doctors and nurses. If there were any emergencies or if she felt unwell, she could call them anytime. Chu Feng couldn’t rush over, but the doctors and nurses would still be on duty.
The doctors wanted to study Chu Fu’s condition as a plant patient in the game, but she was in the middle of a dungeon and really didn’t want to be interrogated.
“Brother, I’m in the middle of a dungeon right now—it’s a bit dangerous, so I have to go.
Oh, by the way, my class ability lets me control plants. Brother, please keep an eye out for some plant seeds for me!”
Why wouldn’t she take advantage of a strong card?
Chu Fu had only read a book and knew the plot.
How could that compare to Chu Feng, who had truly lived a second life and knew the game inside out?
Let him help collect seeds—she planned to leech off him.
“Alright, I’ll save them for you. Later, when the servers merge, I’ll definitely craft the best and most beautiful gear for you.”
Chu Feng’s voice choked up again.
He was far too emotional.
After being reborn, he swore to reclaim everything he had lost, and the thing he cared about most was naturally his sister.
In the previous life, his sister had died in the first year of the game’s invasion.
This time, he had bought her a game pod, and sure enough, Chu Fu had “come alive” again in the game.
She still hadn’t woken up in reality, but as soon as the game descended on the world, she would synchronize her stats into reality and wake up healthy and strong.
Even though he wanted to keep talking to her, he could hear the rat noises through the receiver, so he had to hold back his excitement and let his sister focus on the game.
“I’ll call you again at 2 PM tomorrow. By that time, it should be nighttime in the game, so remember to get some rest in there, got it?”
“Remember not to play with boys too much!”
“Got it, Brother!” Got it, but that doesn’t mean I’ll listen.
Don’t interfere with your little sister’s social life, Brother!
As if sensing Chu Fu’s dismissive tone, Chu Feng felt a pang of heartache.
Sigh, the little cotton-padded jacket had only just woken up—how was it already letting in the wind?
His little sister was so pretty; she was bound to have a bunch of scumbag guys chasing after her in the game.
Just like that guy who called today.
