Infinite Flow Cannon Fodder NPC Just Wants to Stay Alive Chapter 24

CHAPTER 43

Chapter 43: Dream Vacation Resort

Chen Lehe found it hard to describe the gaze and the feeling that engulfed him. Being stared at by several special NPCs at the dining table, he felt as if ice-cold chills crept through his body.

It didn't feel like he was in a villa's dining room, but rather at the bottom of a freezing abyss.

And he was nothing more than a dried-up skeleton lying at the bottom of it.

His hands, already trembling, shook even more violently. His face alternated between red and pale as he held the tray, and the clinking sound of the dishes became louder.

Even Yu Mu Sheng frowned. Making such a commotion during the master's meal would be intolerable, especially with Yu Yangxu's bad temper. Even ordinary NPC servants in the villa wouldn't be spared, let alone a player who was already disliked by the special NPCs.

He had looked up Chen Lehe's information: the young man was a novice player who had only completed a simple beginner's instance. This was his second instance.

As expected, it was the hot-tempered third young master, Yu Yangxu, who broke the silence first.

Yu Yangxu raised an eyebrow. "What, are you dissatisfied that you weren't invited to sit at the table?"

Chen Lehe, still holding the tray with the extra set of utensils, could only stand there stiffly, unable to move. "N-no, of course not."

Yu Yangxu glanced at his trembling hands and sneered, "What's with that look? Do you think we're going to eat you?"

It sounded like a casual joke, and to anyone unaware, it might have seemed like light teasing.

But Chen Lehe, under Yu Yangxu's oppressive and intimidating gaze, began trembling even harder, his legs quaking, unable to speak. He could only shake his head, drenched in cold sweat.

Yu Yangxu lost interest upon seeing his frightened appearance. "If that's the case, then just get out of here and go home. You're an eyesore."

This seemed to imply that Yu Yangxu was letting him off the hook, not pursuing any punishment for the servant's blunder.

However, Chen Lehe's face reflected an even deeper despair than before.

In this instance, "go home" wasn't just a simple dismissal. It meant that the player had lost the qualification to stay at the resort.

In horror games, no player who "leaves" the instance—whether voluntarily or involuntarily—gets to simply return home. Anyone who steps outside the resort's boundaries will meet one inevitable fate: death.

"Crash."

The sound of fragile, exquisite porcelain smashing on the ground echoed through the room.

Everyone turned to look—

It was the dinnerware the Yu family was using that night. The dish had fallen from a height without any obstruction and shattered completely.

But it wasn't the despairing Chen Lehe who had broken it.

Yu Mu Sheng's blank eyes "looked" at the empty space in front of the table in a daze. He also heard the rustling of fabric as the others turned to look at him.

It took Yu Mu Sheng a moment to realize what had happened—when he had tried to "look" at what was happening, he had accidentally bumped the dish in front of him, sending it crashing to the floor.

His immediate reaction was to bend down, seemingly intending to pick up the fallen dishes.

Shu Cang quickly reached out and stopped him. "It's already broken; you'll cut your hand."
