A Smut Novel Heroine Enters a Horror Game - Chapter 3

Chapter 3

I was on the third floor of the palace when a shrill scream suddenly came from upstairs.

Amid a thunderous crash, a monster covered in tentacles fell from above.

Worst of all, on the other side of the corridor, a woman holding her own head sauntered over, swaying her waist.

They had spotted me and the little mermaid, and they definitely wouldn’t let us go.

I thought of jumping out the window, but outside were all man-eating fathead fish…

The little mermaid’s lower body was a fish tail, while his upper body was no different from a human’s. His skin was unusually pale, almost to the point of transparency, with faint cyan veins clearly visible.

I snuck a glance at his abs and couldn’t help but say, “Baby, there’s nowhere to run. Before I die, I have a last wish.”

A flash of confusion crossed the little mermaid’s ruby-like eyes, and he nodded to signal he was listening.

So, I licked my dry lips and stared at his abdomen as I asked, “Baby, I’ve always been curious… do you mermaids really have two?”

A faint blush rose on his face, but only for an instant before his expression turned from red to pale.

A deep, cold voice squeezed out from the little mermaid’s thin lips.

“What, you want to give it a try?”

I pressed my fingertips together and smiled coyly. “Is that okay?”

The audience couldn’t take it anymore.

[Is this really a horror game livestream? They’re doing a life-and-death escape, and you two are flirting like it’s R-18!]

[Stop it, think of the pure single viewers, okay?]

[I suddenly feel like she might survive the night because she doesn’t seem to know fear!]

That uncle with S-rank clearance experience shouted at me from the hole on the fourth floor:

“Jiang Ci, the mermaid in front of you is the dungeon boss! Why aren’t you running?”

I was dumbfounded.

How is this a ferocious mermaid? This is clearly a fragile, adorable baby!

-Ding!

[Congratulations Player Jiang Ci for unlocking the hidden quest: Intimate contact with the boss for two minutes. Binding the PO system (horror game version).]

Me: ?

Getting close to the boss and touching a hand counts as intimate contact?

Can’t we be bolder…

[Please accumulate Intimacy Points to unlock more items.]

After the system spoke, a Shop Exchange Panel appeared in my mind.

Dazzling Big Flashlight: 10 Intimacy Points

Lovestruck Big Chopper: 10 Intimacy Points

Sweet as Honey Small Pistol: 20 Intimacy Points

Invincible Durable Assault Rifle: 40 Intimacy Points

…

Clearance Clue: 50 Intimacy Points

Leg-stretching Eye-popping Pill: 100 Intimacy Points

Fine, fine, I can just restart with 100 Intimacy Points, right.

Damn, flirting with a handsome guy has gotten me into trouble. What should I do…

Waiting online, it’s pretty urgent.

I looked up at the little mermaid and laughed awkwardly twice.

The corners of his lips curled into a bloodthirsty smile as he asked deliberately, “Jiang Ci, before you die, I’ll give you a chance to answer. Do you still want to try?”

The little mermaid actually remembered my name. What he said next didn’t matter!

“Baby, call me that two more times, okay?”

I gazed at him with sparkling eyes, pleasantly surprised, and conveniently stroked his chest a few times for the sake of Intimacy Points.

Little mermaid: “Jiang Ci, you… you’re asking for it!”

He was truly angry, covering the spot I had touched, his whole face flushing red, and even his tail turning a faint pink.

The Tentacle Monster and the eerie woman were getting closer, just a few steps away, and the little mermaid clearly noticed that too.

He exhaled a turbid breath, suppressed his irritation, and put on a smug, watch-the-show expression.
