Chapter 11: Defend the Carrot (Part 1)

An Suisui slept for a long time—so long that her mother finally lost patience and dragged her out of bed.

“Still sleeping, still sleeping—do you even know what time it is?!”

Seeing her mother standing by the bed, fuming, An Suisui scrambled up, carefully dodged around her, and rushed to the dining table.

Ji Qiutong, her mother, followed with a dark expression.

An Suisui wanted to ask her dad for help, but realized that today, only she and her mom were at the table.

Ji Qiutong snorted, “What are you looking at? There was something at the hospital today, so your dad left early and hasn’t come back yet.”

Oh, I see. An Suisui bit her chopsticks, then tried to nuzzle up to her mom.

After barely surviving the torturous breakfast, An Suisui snatched up the dishwashing duty and sent her mom away, finally breathing a sigh of relief.

“Ugh, if I’d known, I wouldn’t have stayed up so late last night.”

At this, An Suisui paused. Why had she stayed up late last night?

Werewolf… Werewolf Game!

Suddenly recalling the real-life game she’d just experienced, An Suisui slapped her forehead, put down her bowl and chopsticks, and ran back to her room. She locked the door and checked herself from head to toe, soon discovering a silver tattoo on her wrist.

The color was faint and the design small—easy to miss if you weren’t looking closely.

An Suisui lowered her head and gently touched the tattoo. It flashed with a trace of light, and a semi-transparent screen popped up.

[Player has gained 10 experience points, leveled up to 1, and received 3 attribute points to allocate.]

An Suisui rubbed her eyes. The game panel was still there, confirming that what happened in the game was real—not a dream or hallucination.

She looked over her player info again, frowning when she saw she only had 100 HP.

She rummaged in her drawer for a small knife, closed her eyes, and steeled herself to make a small cut on her finger.

Because she controlled her strength, it only left a thin line of blood at her fingertip—not a serious wound.

She checked the game panel again. Her HP hadn’t changed, and she finally relaxed.

Good, good—her HP was pretty durable. She wouldn’t just die for no reason.

She continued reading, looking at her agility, speed, endurance, and other stats.

After thinking it over, and comparing to her own physical condition, she figured her strength and defense were average, agility and endurance were decent, and her biggest advantage was speed.

It all matched up.

So, the player’s attributes were based on their real-life physical condition.

Seeing the red prompt on the panel, An Suisui was instantly tempted.

Three bonus attribute points—if she added them, would it show up in real life?

After hesitating, she put two points into strength.

Her speed was already high, and adding one or two points wouldn’t make much difference.

But if her strength increased, it would be obvious.

After allocating the points, she didn’t feel any different. An Suisui looked around her room and found an apple.

She’d never been able to break an apple with her bare hands before, but this time, not only did she split it easily, she even crushed it.

An Suisui: “…”

Better not let Mom see that.

After testing the attribute points, she put the last one into speed.

She had to keep her advantage. If she could get as fast as lightning, no matter how strong her opponent was, they wouldn’t be able to hit her—just like her strategy in VR games.

Imagining the future, An Suisui’s gaze fell on her companion, the husky.

This S-rank husky was the special reward she’d drawn before leaving the game.

She clicked on the husky’s name, and its attribute info popped up.

An Suisui glanced over it—everything looked great, especially its attack power, which was already as high as her speed stat.

But her right eyelid kept twitching, so she opened her computer and searched for “husky” on the star network.

Soon, all kinds of information about huskies appeared before her.

Husky: extinct species, the last one disappeared three hundred years ago, extremely destructive, energetic, and incredibly stupid.

An Suisui: Why do I have a bad feeling about this?

She spent a long time relaxing at home—so long that she almost forgot about the game—until one night, she heard the familiar mechanical system voice again.

[Ding! Game loading—]

[Load successful]

[Please play actively and clear the game seriously.]

[This round’s game—Defend the Carrot. Please eliminate all monsters before the carrot is eaten.]

An Suisui: …

In the middle of the night—can’t I get some sleep?

This time, the game setting was a desert. Ten players had been dropped here, with a huge, tender carrot in the middle of the group.

“Whoa, that carrot is huge! How big are the monsters going to be?!”

The speaker was a scruffy man in a gray tank top and floral shorts. His thick beard covered his cheeks, making it hard to tell his age.

He looked up at the two-meter-tall carrot, eyes full of amazement.

All the players this time had already experienced at least one game. Though they were still nervous, no one bothered asking basic questions anymore.

An Suisui calmly scanned the players, and to her surprise, spotted a familiar face in the crowd.

Jian Shi had also seen her and walked over.

“What a coincidence, little bunny.”

L-little bunny?!

“Who are you calling little bunny?!” An Suisui puffed up her cheeks in protest.

She was a fearsome game killer! A killer, got it? How could she be a little bunny?!

Jian Shi chuckled, his gaze falling meaningfully on her bunny plush and bunny pajamas.

“Who else could be a bunny but you?”

An Suisui immediately flushed with embarrassment and anger.

“These are just pajamas, okay?! And look at yourself—out of everyone here, you’re the only one not in pajamas! How dare you say that about me!”

As it turned out, Jian Shi was still in formal wear for this game.

In the middle of summer, everyone else was dressed as cool as possible, but he was the only one in a suit, looking completely out of place.

Jian Shi didn’t care. “Wearing a suit just means I wasn’t asleep yet. But you—looks like you got dragged out of bed again. Are you tired? Look, even the carrot is trembling.”

It was rare for players to know each other. Most of them were strangers.

Under the guidance of a few, the players began introducing themselves, hoping to unite and cooperate in the upcoming team game to fight the monsters together.
