Help, I've become a paper man

After refusing in vain, after negotiation, Jasmine agreed not to call Song Yi "brother". Correspondingly, after the two added each other as friends, Song Yi needed to follow her instructions, join her temporary team, and enter the dungeon together.

In order to avoid special circumstances, that is, being targeted by Noah's Ark, Song Yi told her in advance that he had skipped the first novice dungeon and was directly put into the old player's dungeon. This time, Jasmine did not say "little brother is awesome", but followed the agreement and praised in the same tone: "Little Song Yi is awesome."

Song Yi hesitated to speak. He originally wanted to ask why she didn't call him "Xiao Yi" like she called Ling Zhi. At the same time, he realized that calling her "Xiao Yi" was worse than "Xiao Song Yi"...

Without further ado, he pressed the ready button, and Jasmine immediately selected start, and the copy began to load.

In a blink of an eye, Song Yi appeared in front of a big door. The fragrance of flowers and plants filled his nose, and he stepped on hard stone slabs. The sense of unreality gradually faded, and everything he saw became more real. He looked to his side, where a little boy was standing. His eyes were not yet open. He was about the same height as Jasmine, but his appearance was different, more childish. He was startled and almost thought that this copy had a gender change. Fortunately, Jasmine was standing on the other side of him and was slowly opening her eyes.

It was at this time that Song Yi realized something was wrong. He didn't know if it was because he had adapted to it, but this time when he entered the copy, the dizziness he felt was significantly reduced and he felt almost no discomfort. This physical adaptation made him feel a little uncomfortable emotionally.

I'm not being a masochist, I just think that Noah's Ark was targeting him, which was like the prelude to boiling a frog in warm water.

While Song Yi was complaining about Noah's Ark in his mind, the people around him gradually woke up. In addition to him, there were two men, a boy, Jasmine and two women older than her. The seven people's differences in class and status could be seen from their clothes. Song Yi saw that Jasmine's cotton skirt had been changed into a big skirt, and he also lowered his head to glance at his own clothes. Shirt, trousers, vest and short boots, if it was on a teenager, it would be lively and handsome, but on a muscular young man like him, it was very incongruous, as if he was pretending to be young.

At the same time, a reminder sound rang in everyone's mind.

"The dungeon "The Duke's Regret" is loading for you. Her name is no longer praised, and her story has been washed away by the river of time. The resentment and hostility she endured were as much as the admiration she faced. Now she returns to the time when she was in power to satisfy her lifelong regret."

When Song Yi received the initial clue for the first time, he could barely accept his changed appearance.

But he still pulled down his vest and asked in his heart: "Noah's Ark, what role do you think is suitable for a grown man like me to play?"

"There are 7 participants, and currently 7 are alive. The condition for passing the level is: choose a qualified husband for the Duke."

The desire to complain that had just stopped was reawakened, and he couldn't help asking: "Who designed this copy? The Duke's regret in this life must be solved by a qualified husband? Are you too fond of men?"

Still no answer, the system prompt sounded again.

"Player's role in this game: Newsboy."

……

Song Yi was tired of scolding. Noah's Ark would not change anyway. Fortunately, AI had no humanity, so there was no need to worry about scolding Him accidentally.

Although based on the experience of the previous copy, unreasonable places and problematic points can become breakthroughs for exploration, but hearing this description and the label-like attitude of a supermarket made him uncomfortable, especially when he saw that other people looked normal, which further deepened his dissatisfaction.

The servants opened the door and a maid came out. She was wearing a standard maid outfit. She had a perfect smile and gesture as she welcomed everyone. The first sentence she said was "It is a privilege to meet the elites from all walks of life" and the second sentence was "Your Excellency the Duke looks forward to meeting you all", throwing out the unreasonable things one after another.

The crowd, who had just calmed down, began to observe the surrounding buildings, and more of their eyes were on each other, guessing each other's identities.

Song Yi had a sour face and followed the maid. He looked the calmest, but he did not hide his dissatisfaction.

Noticing his emotions, Jasmine could not chat with friends in the game. She sneaked up to him and whispered, "Little Song Yi, don't take it too seriously. The clues given by Noah's Ark are not lies, but correspondingly, they will definitely play word games."

This sentence confirmed Song Yi's guess. The truth was definitely not the appearance of "hating to get married". He nodded, indicating that he knew and told Jasmine not to worry. However, he said to Noah's Ark in his heart: "You have to remember, this is a youth comic, understand."

Noah's Ark was still quiet. They followed the maid through the corridor, into the hall, and continued forward, and saw a figure appear under the chandelier.

The sunlight shone through the floor-to-ceiling windows and hit the hem of her skirt. The light passed through the decorative crystals, was cut and fell down. The blonde woman stood in the light, slowly turned her head and looked at them. Her smoky-gray eyes fell on them, and her calm voice, with a hint of laziness, rang in the air.

She said, “Welcome.”

This elegantly dressed woman was obviously the "Duke" mentioned in their mission.

Then, the Duke said, "The servants haven't prepared dinner yet," and made an invitation like "Would you like to accompany her to the garden?" No one could refuse her, not only because "they" arrived at the invited venue early, nor was it entirely because of the Duke's beauty. The most important point was the system task.

A charming and powerful duke, who seems to have strong financial resources at the moment, needs a "qualified" "husband" and puts "regret" together, bringing a different flavor.

It's not pink, it's dark red.

Song Yi suddenly had a bad feeling. He walked towards the garden with the main group and asked in his heart: "Noah's Ark, we are just a puzzle game of passing levels in a dungeon, not an infinite flow, right?"

"The dungeon is generated by Purgatory. Each dungeon is unique. After capturing the entrance to the dungeon, Noah's Ark can only analyze the plot superficially. The specific information needs to be explored by the players themselves."

It's obviously an attempt to shirk responsibility.

Song Yi vaguely realized something from His answer and had already stepped into the garden. When he came to his senses, he was already much slower. Everyone was trying to find a good topic to talk about and squeeze towards the Duke. He was already at the outermost edge, with Jasmine on his left hand and the boy on his right hand.

Song Yi subconsciously wanted to take a step forward and get closer to collect intelligence, but he didn't expect to be grabbed by Jasmine. He looked down and saw Jasmine said seriously: "Little Song Yi, don't fall in love too early."

Song Yi said with difficulty: "I didn't fall in love prematurely."

Moreover, judging by the "clusters of flowers" here, if he moves closer, he will just have one more dogtail grass. How can it be considered puppy love? No one present can be considered puppy love at the moment.

Thinking of this, he suddenly realized and put aside his previous guess. In the face of power, gender is nothing. This may not be "the Duke's regret", but it is definitely "the Duke's selection of a concubine". But wait, gender can indeed be ignored for the time being...but? !

Song Yi's gaze fell on the minor beside him again, and he felt the absurdity of the copy again.
