The quest [Blood Wolf] was very simple.
After players successfully leave their domain, select a build, and gain the qualification to travel throughout the land, the 3rd quest they receive is [Blood Wolf]. Supposedly, inhabitants are attacked by wild beasts and want heroes to investigate what’s going on.
The players follow the clues provided by the NPCs and search. At the end of their investigation, they’d find a frenzied blood wolf. Locking it up inside a cave and this quest is considered done.
When playing it around level 30, the players needed to tank the blood wolf’s attacks while luring it into the cave and activating the trap. So it’s actually somewhat troublesome.
However, Jiang Chen and Fang JingXing were almost level 80 right now. Its damage barely tickled. Too lazy to even dodge, they completed the quest easily.
The two people found the NPC to hand over the quest. Then it was time for Fang JingXing to live stream.
He looked at the Wardcaster. Despite knowing he’d encounter disdain, he still couldn’t help but say: “If you’re bored, you can watch my live stream.”
Jiang Chen said: “That’s even more boring.”
Exasperated, Fang JingXing considered disappearing again from the platform after streaming a few more times.He bid farewell and logged off, leaving.
Tonight, Xie ChengYan had a charity event. He probably wouldn’t return home until midnight, so Jiang Chen was left to play by himself.
The guild members had already finished playing this quest line a long time ago. Jiang Chen had to finish up the quests during the day and thought it’d take the entire day, so he told them to go clear dungeons, no need to wait for him.
Now that he was done with the missions, and there was ample time left, he could clear some small dungeons. As such, he asked within the guild chat.
Avian Ruler: “I finished playing them all.”
5cum: “Me too.”
Gou Cheng: “I still have a 5-man dungeon I haven’t cleared. Am currently playing another dungeon with others. How about you wait a bit for me?”
Sprouting Old Wutong: “I have two small dungeons I didn’t finish.”
Deep Love and Longevity: “I have three. Speaking honestly, I don’t like to clear dungeons, but to accompany you, I’m willing.”
Jiang Chen said calmly: “Speaking honestly, I don’t like to kill people, but to kill you, I’m also willing.”
The channel instantly deteriorated into laughter.
They compared their unfinished dungeons and discovered that none of them matched, so they asked some other people.
Listening to them chat, Jiang Chen planned to head straight back to the city and return to the guild. At this time, he glanced around with the corners of his eyes and caught a glimpse of a player currently scrambling around, being chased by a small mob.
This was an Untamed player, possessing a pair of rabbit ears on his head and wearing a very festive outfit…… Jiang Chen remembered that a certain old friend’s son… seemed to have been dressed like this.
Not to mention, the guild Old But Vigorous, just happened to be near this small town. Perhaps it really was that child.
He couldn’t help but walk over. Before he got near, he saw the rabbit scurrying onto the main road with a trace of HP, yipping and shouting. A squad just happened to pass by over there. Seeing the situation, one of them helped kill the small mob behind him.
The rabbit let out a breath of relief and said gratefully: “Thank you, gege. Gege is such a good person!”
“What a sweet mouth.” That player said with a smile: “No need for thanks. Seeing injustice on the road…… Woah, Ace. What a coincidence?”

The person who provided assistance was Ask Fate’s The Person in the Mirror. Meanwhile, the rabbit was sure enough his old friend’s son, ID BunBun.
Seeing him, BunBun ran over excitedly: “Idol!”
Aljcu Jtfc rjlv: “Qtfgf’r sbeg vjv?”
BunBun said: “Washing the dishes.”
Aljcu Jtfc: “Gbc’a sbe tjnf j kjrtlcu wjmtlcf?”
BunBun answered innocently: “He drank too much yesterday and acted crazy. Mom got angry and sentenced him to wash dishes for three days, hand wash.”
“……” Aljcu Jtfc qjaafv tlr tfjv jcv rdeffhfv tlr oieoos fjgr jibcu atf kjs, jrxlcu: “Lbk biv jgf sbe?”
BunBun said: “10 years old.”
Jiang Chen replied “En”.
During his time, there were already a lot of late marriages and late pregnancies. Now 30 years later, the life expectancy is even longer. A person’s life holds even more possibilities. Late marriages could only increase. Some of those people from Old But Vigorous married early. Their kids were already in college. Others married late, so their kids were only 10 years old like this.
Ever since BunBun saw him fight 1 vs 10 inside the Stone Forest, he became Jiang Chen’s fan. He asked: “My dad is almost done washing the dishes. Do you want to wait for him? Or I can bring you back to our guild to play? I planted carrots in the courtyard.”
Jiang Chen said: “I just came from there.”
He subconsciously glanced at the town.
Actually today, he wanted to ask his former teammate how he was doing and why only one of them had returned to the game. However, since Jiang Chen didn’t know what had happened over the years, he didn’t know if it was appropriate; so he didn’t bring it up.
BunBun said: “Then where do you want to play…… oh?”
He turned his head: “My dad is coming!”
He ran back into the wilderness area, attracted a bunch of monsters along the way, and started to scuttle around again.
Seeing this, the tiger dad, who just logged in, hastily raised his weapon to save his son.
Jiang Chen watched them from a distance and realized slowly in the aftermath that this wilderness area looked actually pretty familiar to him.
The wilderness areas of every town in Wandering Dreams were different, each having their unique scenery.
This place grew a large acre of dandelions. When touched by a player’s attack, the dandelions scattered and flew into the air.
He remembered meeting several friends for the first time here.
At that time, he led a bunch of people in a fight with Du FeiZhou and his group, battling from one end of the field to the other. The dandelions flew across the entire area. Later on, after learning that both parties were newcomers of gaming organizations, they slowly became friends.
After waking up from his sleep, the flamboyant and ill-tempered youth back then has already become an old uncle, who’s starting to worry about his health.
Time was really such a bastard.
The members of the 7 large guilds stood in front of him. They didn’t leave.
The group was quiet like chickens on the surface, but their enthusiasm was devoted entirely to the squad chat.
“Nice job, Mirror, saving the Ace’s acquaintance.”
“This shows that doing good deeds everyday is extremely necessary. Good people get their just rewards.”
“I checked. Abyss and Qing Yan are both offline. Let’s take this chance to make a good impression. Invite him to clear dungeons.”
“Mirror, you go speak to him. You rescued the person.”
The Person in the Mirror took two steps forward. He dry coughed to attract the Ace’s attention and asked: “Ace, are you free? We’re about to play a level 80 ten-man dungeon. I see that you’re almost level 80, Ace, so you probably haven’t played this dungeon yet. Do you want to do it together?”
Seeing the guild leaders of the 7 large guilds all present, Jiang Chen figured it out.
He asked: “You guys are in a group to warm up for the hidden story quest?”
The Person in the Mirror said: “That’s right. As the proverb says, three stooges are …… no wait, wrong saying. We just want to improve our friendship a bit more.”
Actually, the proverb wasn’t wrong.
They weren’t certain if they could persuade the two Aces into joining the alliance squad so they prepared for the two Aces to lead the Indulge members to play the story quest instead.
As such, they wanted to take a gamble— Gathering all of their guild leaders like this, what if they can clear it faster than the others? What if the reason the two Aces cleared it so fast last time was completely due to blind luck?
Therefore, in order to increase their understanding of each other, they formed a squad to play dungeons.
He asked: “We just happen to be missing one person. Do you want to come?”
Jiang Chen said: “You’d actually lack people?”
The group said: “Of course.”
Wooden Shackles said: “The person who was originally supposed to be here had something come up at the last minute. We didn’t have time to ask someone else to come before running into you.”
“The person who had something come up at the last minute” crouched behind them and silently left the squad, logging off on the spot and quietly concealing his meritorious contribution.
The group felt very pleased at the sight and said: “You can count if you don’t believe us. Are we not only 9 people?”
Jiang Chen naturally saw through the convolutedness of this matter.
However, he had planned on clearing dungeons in the first place and didn’t care who he teamed up with. As such, he opened guild chat and glanced at it briefly. Seeing that the topic had already run off track unknowingly, he said: “I meant some familiar people. Going to clear dungeons with them. Will return to the guild when I’m done.”
His guild members said one after another: “Go ahead.”
Closing the chat, Jiang Chen left the squad he had originally formed with Fang JingXing and the others and entered these people’s small squad. Glancing around, he saw Tiger Dad bringing BunBun over, he chatted briefly with this father and son pair before leaving with those people.
The level 80 ten-man dungeon was located in the nearby grassland. It was mid-upper level in difficulty.
Jiang Chen never played it before. To avoid trouble, he gave them a warning.
The 9 people in the squad were somewhat surprised.
According to the intelligence reports, this Ace was not against playing dungeons. If he never played it before, there was only one possibility…… They asked: “Ace, you’ve never played Wandering Dreams before?”
Jiang Chen said: “Just never played this dungeon before.”
Wooden Shackles said: “Oh, it’s not a problem. This dungeon is not hard. Ace, you can slack off as you please.”
Jiang Chen said: “No need, just tell me the important things to note and I’ll be fine. I want to clear it with you guys as soon as possible, might have something to do later.”
Wooden Shackles nodded: “Alright.”
The most noteworthy in the dungeon was the three bosses.
Wooden Shackles and The Person in the Mirror were in charge of the explanations. Jiang Chen listened as he followed them in fights.
The group was composed of capable guild leaders. Besides the Golden League Alliance’s guild leader Gu Wen and the Faraway Light’s guild leader White Dragonbone, who didn’t like playing dungeons, the rest of the people have already cleared it many times. They practically pushed indomitably into the lair of the final boss.
Observing secretly, they saw that Total Annihilation didn’t make any mistakes from the beginning to end, and had pretty high damage too. They thought to themselves, as expected of someone who was able to defeat the Lion King at a low level; sure enough, he was no rookie.
The 10-man squad was an unstoppable force. They successfully killed Boss #3.
The Person in the Mirror looted the corpse. A piece of material and two gears dropped, one of which was even an orange equipment.
The crowd instantly became excited.
The orange equipment, which was only second to divine gear in rarity, was also relatively difficult to get. Looks like their luck today was pretty good.
This orange equipment was a belt commonly used by magic classes.
However, physical classes didn’t give up on rolling either. After all, they all had families to raise behind them. Even if they couldn’t use it, someone in their guild could.
The Person in the Mirror said: “Who’s going first?”
Wooden Shackles said: “Ace, you first?”
The other people also said: “Ace, go first.”
With the rolling mechanic, if two people rolled the same number, the person who rolled first got the item.
Even though the chances of rolling the same number wasn’t high, the first person to roll would still get that slight advantage nevertheless.
Jiang Chen looked at the slot machine and missed Fang JingXing somewhat.
He didn’t dally however, and stepped forth to pull the lever.
“Ding.”
1 point.
The crowd: “……”
PFFT- Ah, yes, the comeback of a certain someone’s black luck ahahahahaha- it’s cute that he misses Captain Fang (rather, his golden luck probably) at this time XD
His luck has not changed
yes, maybe Xiao Ji need’s some better luck… maybe he and JingXing should hug for a while so that JingXing can pass his luck onto Xiao Ji *wink, wink * if you know, then you know xD 😏
Might be far fetched but are you perhaps referencing the lucky koi (iykyk) from ‘I Just Want To Be in A Relationship’?
I don’t know the novel and the idea of “hugging” just came to mind randomly, but lucky koi and “hugging”?? Dear sister/brother please don’t mind giving me a quick synopsis, it’s not that I’m lazy it’s that I’m stuck on chrysanthemumgarden trying to catch up with 3 novels (I have more than 300 chapters altogether to catch up with 😬)
So the gist of the novel is: a movie king who dies saving someone is sent back to the past and decides to quit acting because it forced him to hide his sexuality in his past life. He doesn’t end up quitting and soon after meets his future husband. ML is neurodivergent, which I haven’t seen in any danmei novels so far, and the author’s portrayal of it is respectful.
Ppl in-universe call MC a lucky koi bc he has abnormally high luck after regressing to the past XD
“hey koi what’s up today? Got any luck to give away?” xD I can’t get it out of my head now 🥲
The synopsis sounds interesting I think I’ll go and put it into my reading list!!! muah thank you for giving me another pit hole to dig into!!!! o(≧∀≦)o (∩˃o˂∩)♡
and Xiao Ji’s black hands strike again!!! Ding, ding, ding 1 Point, a lot better than 0…
He really spent all his luck being revived pfftt
Thank you for the update!
Whoa. Proof still of rotten luck. Good thing the skills are so high… Thanks for the update 🤣❤️
