Chapter 23 The Great Adventure: Singing, Dancing, and Rap While Playing Basketball
The Dragon Kingdom's live stream room exploded again:
"I just cracked open! Is that even allowed?"
"Even weirdos like cheesy pickup lines???"
"Strategy team, update your manual quickly! New tactic: the marriage proposal strategy!"
"Your wife calls you shameless, but she's secretly thrilled!"
Lin Feng: I just want to give the flight attendant a home.
"From the strategy guide team to netizens, everyone was completely blown away by Brother Feng's amazing skills!"
"Phew—I can finally catch my breath!"
........................
Xia Ning suppressed the blush on her face and posed the ultimate question: "If the reward for 'clearing the level' is to become one of us and gain power, but the price is to forever say goodbye to human identity... would you be willing?"
Without a second thought, Lin Feng replied decisively, "Of course I'm willing, as long as I can have a child with you."
Xia Ning was taken aback, then lightly bit her lip, giving Lin Feng a flirtatious glare:
"You...you...how can your mind be filled with...shamelessness!"
Before she could finish speaking, a suppressed chuckle came from behind her.
The two accompanying flight attendants were exchanging glances, their shoulders twitching slightly, clearly amused by the bold conversation.
Xia Ning immediately turned her head and glared at them fiercely with a look that was both dignified and shy.
The two flight attendants seemed to have been gripped by an invisible force, instantly losing all expression, straightening their backs, and resuming their cold and wooden standing posture.
[Xia Ning's favorability with the mysterious flight attendant increases by 5!]
Current favorability rating: 88/100
Xia Ning coughed lightly: "...Sincere."

Dragon Kingdom Live Stream Room:
"This is insane! He'd give up all humanity just to have a baby with that weird flight attendant!"
"This isn't some ghost story about survival; it's 'Lin Feng's Bizarre Proposal'!"
"I hereby declare the strongest tactic of this year's ghost story competition: Taking advantage of a woman's kindness!"
"The fate of the Dragon Kingdom is currently inextricably linked to Lin Feng's romantic luck!"
The strategy team leader wiped his sweat: "This method... we really haven't taught you."
........................
Japanese netizens' comments were mixed in, filled with bitterness and helplessness:
"Baka! The Chosen One of the Dragon Kingdom definitely cheated!"
"This isn't fair! Why didn't his monster eat him?!"
"Our Rin-chan is so elegant, yet... they're actually dating?"
"People from the Dragon Country are despicable! They exploit emotions!"
"(A Chinese netizen replied: Get lost if it's only shortened by two centimeters! It doesn't deserve to watch our Brother Feng show off his skills!"
........................
Xia Ning turned to all the passengers and announced the results: "Lin Feng passed all three questions and has been awarded the 'Calming Drink' reward."
As soon as she finished speaking, a flight attendant stepped forward from behind Xia Ning, carrying an exquisite wooden tray.
On the tray was a bottle of beverage. The bottle was not a modern industrial product, but rather something that looked like it was hand-polished from some kind of dark crystal or glass.
The bottle contained a rich, deep purple that seemed to possess life, with tiny silver specks of light slowly rising and falling within it.
Simply gazing at it brings a strange sense of tranquility.
The gazes cast by the crowd were filled with envy; to have eight hours of undisturbed sleep was simply a heavenly gift.
Lin Feng stroked the smooth bottle, but did not drink it immediately.
While you may be chosen again for the next big adventure, there are often opportunities hidden within danger.
What if I can take this opportunity to increase Xia Ning's favorability again?
Moreover, he also has a "resistance rule" card, which can save his life if all else fails.
"Truth or Dare segment is over." Xia Ning's voice remained sweet yet icy as she announced the end of this phase. "Challenger who successfully completed this round: Lin Feng. Congratulations."
"Next up is the 'Truth or Dare' segment," Xia Ning said, raising her voice slightly.
"The rules are as follows: I will randomly select one passenger. The selected person must draw a task card from the adventure card deck and complete the 'Great Adventure' strictly according to the requirements on the card."
"Refusal to execute, inadequate execution, or failure to complete within the time limit are all considered failures."
"The cost of failure is the same as before—erasure."
"The successful person will receive the same reward: a bottle of 'calming drink'."
After the rules were explained, the cabin was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Compared to confronting one's innermost thoughts with "truth," this unknown "great adventure" that requires hands-on experience is equally terrifying, as no one knows what kind of bizarre and deadly mission they will be drawn.
Xia Ning didn't give everyone more time to process their fear; she snapped her fingers lightly.
A crisp sound echoed through the deathly silent cabin, and the overhead lights flashed wildly again in response.
Finally, the beam of light focused on a young man huddled in his seat.
He was wearing a T-shirt with an anime print, and he was Nix, the chosen one from the Aegean.
"No...no..." Knicks' face was ashen, his body trembled uncontrollably, and his teeth chattered.
A flight attendant walked up to him with measured steps, carrying a tray covered with black velvet.
On the tray was a stack of cards with twisted thorn patterns drawn on the back.
"Draw a card!" the flight attendant commanded.
Although Knicks resisted, his hand reached out involuntarily. He closed his eyes, randomly pulled out a card from the middle, and handed it to the flight attendant.
The flight attendant showed the cards to Xia Ning and all the passengers.
The task is written on the card in bright yet eerie colors:
[Singing, dancing, and rapping while playing basketball]
There is also a line of small print next to it:
Perform a 90-second non-stop show in the cabin aisle.
The content must include clear singing, at least three different dance moves, and an impromptu rap.
At the same time, you must keep dribbling, the basketball cannot stop bouncing, and the sound cannot be interrupted.
"I...I can't...I can't do it..." Knicks almost collapsed when he saw the contents, pleading with a sob in his voice.
Xia Ning remained expressionless, simply reaching out and grabbing a standard brown-red basketball in the air.
She tossed the basketball to the Knicks, her voice devoid of any warmth:
"Please begin your performance. 90 seconds remaining."
Knicks frantically caught the basketball, his survival instincts for survival compelling him to stand up and walk to the center of the relatively spacious aisle.
He took a deep breath and tried to dribble the ball, but his hand was shaking so badly that the basketball bounced off course the first time it hit the ground and crashed into the seat next to him with a dull thud.
He hurriedly picked up the ball and began to jump and sing an Aegean folk song, his voice severely off-key due to fear.
At the same time, he awkwardly tried to incorporate a few street basketball dance moves from his memory, but his limbs were as stiff as a puppet, making him look both comical and pathetic.
The rap part was even more disastrous; he improvised humming things like "I don't want to die" and "Let me go," with absolutely no rhythm or cadence...
