Chapter 48: A Bet

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The routes on the map were different with three supply stations. After completing the missions at the three supply stations, the first team to reach the end point would be the winner.

The three supply stations divided all the routes into four parts. Right now, both groups were at the first part with Bai Xi’s group arriving faster as they had chosen the closer route.

The route Bai Lin was on had more mission cards, which were much simpler and more normal than the kiss mission at the beginning. She completed all the quests she could along the way and received numerous rewards. Among them, the one that pleased her the most was a fat rabbit.

This kind of rabbit was different from the species in the forest. It was specially bred as food. As soon as she saw it, many recipes automatically appeared in her mind, and she got hungrier.

Her activity level was high since she had taken care of the wolves yesterday, and she had not gone hunting either, so she had not eaten meat for a whole day.

She was ready to turn the rabbit to food once she got to the supply station.

It was getting late. Bai Lin and team gradually stopped picking up the mission cards even when they saw them, finally arriving at the supply station before sunset.

An eerie looking villa appeared before everyone’s eyes. The walls were mottled and covered in vines. The fence at the gate was rusty and made an ear-piercing creaking sound when the wind blew.

It was like the beginning of a horror game.

Zhao Yuan saw Bai Xi from a distance. They had not entered the villa yet. Instead, they were gathered together talking about something.

Zhao Yuan was so exhausted she could die as she complained, “Xixi, come and help me.”

Bai Xi ran over and helped Zhao Yuan to sit down by the wall.

Zhao Yuan ma.s.saged her legs and kept rambling, “Your sister and the others didn’t even care about me, their elder, and just rushed their way. Xixi, did you ao any quest( can you ormg me DaCK co your reami”

“We were only focused on rus.h.i.+ng our way. We didn’t do any mission,” Bai Xi answered with difficulty.

“That’s fine. I’ll go with your group next time.” Zhao Yuan looked at the strange-shaped lock hanging on the door and asked, “Why didn’t you guys go

Bai Shao plopped down beside Zhao Yuan. “We’re required to unlock it, but there’s no hint at all. We’ve been looking at it for a long time, but I can’t figure it out.”

“It’s so difficult? Why don’t we climb over the wall?” Zhao Yuan asked.

Fan Feng frowned. “We tried, but it didn’t work. First, the wall is high and it’s covered with moss, so we can’t climb up. Second, there’s an electric grid on the top of the wall. We just tried it, and it’s turned on.”

As he spoke, he pointed to the bird on the ground that was electrocuted and charred black. “If this electrocuted someone, they would probably die on the spot.”

“Then what do we do?”

When Zhao Yuan asked this question, everyone’s eyes, including Bai Xi’s, fell on Bai Lin.

For some reason, Jin Ran’s face was covered in mud. She stammered over and said a little sadly, “Lin-jie, I only know maths. I can’t figure this one out.”

“It’s fine. Everyone’s good in different things. I’ll give it a try.”

She held up the lock and observed it carefully.

Bai Shao sneered at her, “That’s enough, Bai Lin. Why don’t you go to the side and set up a tent? Jin Ran already said that this isn’t a math problem. What are you going to solve?”

“Xiao Shao and Xixi often play puzzle escape games at home. Even they couldn’t solve it, don’t waste your time.” Zhao Yuan was annoyed and only wanted to go into the tent to rest, so she ordered, “It’s not dark yet. There’s still time to set up the tents.”

Bai Lin did not even turn her head. “No.”

The obvious perfunctory reply made Zhao Yuan angrier. She raised her voice, “You’re too bratty! Can’t you learn from Xixi? Aren’t you embarra.s.sed to have everyone waiting for you?”

Bai Xi consoled Zhao Yuan. “Mom, don’t be angry. Jiejie didn’t do it on purpose. She just doesn’t understand. We just have to teach her more.”

Bai Lin put down the lock and turned to look at Zhao Yuan.

Zhao Yuan thought that her reprimand had worked, and her expression softened. “That’s a good child. Go on.”

Bai Lin smiled. “Do you want to make a bet?”

Zhao Yuan failed to react immediately. “What?”

“Let’s bet on whether I can unlock this lock. If I can unlock it, you, Bai Shao and Bai Xi sleep in the tent outside. How about it?” Bai Lin said.

Zhao Yuan glanced at Bai Shao. She had no idea how difficult the lock was.

Bai Shao thought for a moment. It was true that there was no clue on the lock, nor was there any key. It was impossible to unlock it by force too. Why was Bai Lin so confident that she even took the initiative to ask for a bet?

Bai Shao contemplated and came to a sudden realization.

Seeing how confident she was, a normal person would definitely not bet with her. Bai Lin could then continue to try and unlock the lock. Even if she could not unlock it, everyone would eventually set up the tents together. She would not lose anything.

Moreover, there was nothing wrong with sleeping in tents. The villa looked eerie like it might be haunted.

“Let’s bet then. If you can’t unlock it,” Bai Shao said with ill intentions, “You’ll set up tents for everyone while barking like a dog.. How about it?”
