Huang Tang put away his smile and stood up.

"This time, you guys choose two people to go in with me. Who's going?"

This time, Jiang Jing'an didn't raise her hand.

She yawned, "I didn't sleep well last night, I need to catch up during the day. You guys go ahead."

After speaking, she gave Huang Tang a meaningful wink.

Huang Tang coughed dryly and looked away.

Cai Lin was the first to step forward, "I'll go."

"If you get hurt, my [Draw Pie Healing] might help."

Huang Tang nodded, "Okay."

Then he looked at the others.

Who would take the remaining spot?

Jiang Jing'an's sister, Jiang Golan, suddenly stepped forward.

"I'll go."

Everyone was stunned.

Jiang Golan usually spoke very little and had a low presence, always shrinking to the back when choosing people.

Why was she volunteering this time?

Jiang Jing'an was also taken aback, then smiled and gave her sister a thumbs up.

Su Qing was a step too late, and could only watch helplessly as the spot was taken, stomping her feet in frustration.

"Then it's settled," Huang Tang decided, "Cai Lin, Jiang Golan, and I will go in. The rest of you stay and guard the place."

A flash of white light.

In the next second, the three of them stood in a completely different world.

Sunshine.

Warm sunshine bathed their bodies, bringing a long-lost warmth.

Huang Tang squinted instinctively and looked up.

Blue sky, white clouds, the sun high above, a clear day.

Since entering this game, they had faced gray skies and endless floods every day.

Now, suddenly bathed in sunlight, their whole bodies felt warm.

"This..." Cai Lin was stunned, "Is this the real sun?"

Jiang Golan extended her hand, letting the sunlight shine on her palm.

Huang Tang looked around.

They stood at the edge of a dense forest.

The trees were absurdly tall, each one easily over ten meters high, with trunks so thick that several people couldn't wrap their arms around them.

The branches and leaves blocked out the sky, with only a few rays of sunlight filtering through the gaps.

"This place..." Huang Tang frowned, "Something's not quite right."

"What's wrong?" Cai Lin asked.

"The trees are too tall," Huang Tang pointed at the giant trees before them, "In our time, there were very few such primeval forests."

Cai Lin and Jiang Golan also became alert.

After the past few days' experiences, they understood that encountering any kind of monster in this [Building Survival Game] was not surprising!

"Let's go, be careful," Huang Tang pulled out a pistol he had taken from the police station and checked the bullets, "Stay close to me, don't get separated."

The three of them walked along a forest path.

After about twenty minutes, the view suddenly opened up.

A lake appeared before them.

The lake water was crystal clear, shimmering under the sunlight.

A few water birds swam in the distance, occasionally letting out a call.

"So beautiful..." Jiang Golan murmured.

Cai Lin was also entranced.

The weather was hot, and after walking for half a day, they were already sweaty.

Looking at the clear lake water, both women's eyes lit up.

"Huang Tang," Cai Lin, unusually bashful, asked, "Can we... take a bath?"

Huang Tang was taken aback, "A bath?"

"With all the floods and zombies these days, we're all sticky," Cai Lin said softly, "It's rare to find such clean water..."

Huang Tang looked around, feeling it wasn't dangerous, and nodded, "Alright. But make it quick, who knows what's around."

As he spoke, he began to undress.

Cai Lin and Jiang Golan were both stunned.

"What... what are you doing?!" Cai Lin exclaimed.

"Undressing," Huang Tang said innocently, "Aren't we going to bathe?"

"We're bathing, why are you undressing?!"

"I haven't bathed in days either," Huang Tang said matter-of-factly, winking at them, "We were honest with each other on the first day, why be shy now?"

"If you keep dawdling, time will run out. Eight hours seems long, but it'll pass in no time."

Cai Lin blushed, wanting to retort but couldn't find the words.

Jiang Golan kept her head down, not daring to look.

Huang Tang was already naked, standing by the lake, looking back at them, "Hurry up, I'm going in first."

With that, he jumped into the lake with a splash.

Cai Lin and Jiang Golan exchanged a glance.

"President Cai, what should we do?" Jiang Golan asked softly.

Cai Lin bit her lip, silently reassuring herself that in this post-apocalyptic world, why care about such things...

Besides, Huang Tang was right, there were no secrets between them anymore.

"Let's go in," Cai Lin said.

The two women turned their backs to Huang Tang, quietly undressing.

Huang Tang, who was swimming in the distance, turned his head, his eyes going wide.

He had seen Cai Lin's figure on the first day, but it was in a panic, not as clearly as now.

The sunlight shone on her, every inch of her smooth skin glowing enticingly.

Every curve was just right.

Every pale spot was very pale...

A solid 9.9!

Definitely a 9.9!

Then he looked at Jiang Golan.

Huang Tang was stunned.

Jiang Golan and Jiang Jing'an were truly twins, not only were their features identical, but even their figures were indistinguishable.

Every curve was just right, from head to toe like a copy-paste.

How had he not noticed before?

Jiang Golan noticed his gaze, blushed, and shrank into the water, leaving only her head above.

"What are you staring at!" Cai Lin glared at him, looking even more alluring.

Huang Tang snapped out of it, chuckling, "Looking at beauties. President Cai, with your figure, it's a shame you're not a model."

Cai Lin blushed even more but tried to remain composed, "Smooth talker!"

The lake water was just the right temperature, neither too cold nor too hot, making it incredibly comfortable to soak in.

After a while, the three of them relaxed their guard.

"This place is really nice," Jiang Golan said softly, "If only we could stay here forever."

"Stop dreaming," Cai Lin splashed cold water on her hopes, "We only have eight hours, and we still need to search for supplies and materials."

Huang Tang swam closer to them, "You two come over here, in case there's danger, I can protect you."

Cai Lin immediately backed away warily, "I think the biggest danger is you!"

"President Cai, that's not fair," Huang Tang said with a straight face, "I'm a decent person!"

"Besides... what if I'm the one at a disadvantage?"

"You!" Cai Lin splashed water at him, "Shameless!"

Jiang Golan covered her mouth, laughing.

A quick look at "pawread.com" will leave you more fulfilled.

Suddenly, her expression froze.

"What's wrong?" Huang Tang noticed her change.

Jiang Golan stared at the water, her voice trembling, "I think... I just saw something swim by."

Huang Tang looked at the lake surface, which was calm.

"Did you see it wrong?"

Cai Lin's voice suddenly tightened, "No, I saw it too! A shadow, right below!"

The two women almost simultaneously moved closer to Huang Tang.

One on each side, clinging tightly to him.

"Huang Tang, did you see what it was?"

Cai Lin watched the water nervously.

"Ouch... it hurts!"

A cry of pain escaped Huang Tang's mouth.

It turned out Cai Lin, in her panic, had mistaken...

Him for a rock.

"President Cai..."

Huang Tang's face turned green, "Even if you like it, you can't just..."

Cai Lin looked down.

Her face turned crimson, stammering, "Sorry, I didn't mean to..."

Cai Lin's voice grew quieter.

But her eyes couldn't help but sneak a glance.

Two glances, three glances...

"Whoosh!"

At that moment, the water suddenly exploded!

A massive head emerged from the lake!

Gray-green skin, a snake-like long neck, a small head, full of sharp teeth.

It was opening its mouth wide, lunging at the three of them!
