Chapter 18 - The Stone is mine!

[ Scar: "Haha~ This is great, whether or not we can strike down that bastard later, we'll finally get to see what he looks like." ]

[ Cristoforo: "Indeed. At this very moment, my mind has already drafted a magnificent script for him! ]

[ Chixia: "By the way, is there... just a slight possibility that he might actually get it right?" ]

[ Scar, Cristoforo: "Absolutely impossible. Not to mention him… If anyone could answer such a difficult question correctly, we will eat shit live on stream." ]

[ Lupa: "Oh boy, are you guys starting to scam free food and drinks here again?" ]

[ Jiyan: "...(If this keeps up, I'm afraid the Fractsidus's image in everyone's minds is going to become a bunch of clowns.)" ]

[ Xiangli Yao: "Chasing the stars, chasing knowledge, and chasing the truth is inherently an incomparable joy. But if the truth of this kind of question..." ]

[ .....]

" In Between "

However, aside from the buzzing crowd at this moment, there were several others who were feeling extremely flustered.

After all, they had only just managed to change their names not long ago... and before even a short while had passed, they were about to be exposed right in front of everyone.

How could such a thing not make them feel guilty?

Although in their view, that guy named Little Drifter couldn't get it right... What if he actually did?

For instance, the current Phrolova and Fenrico were already silently declaring in their hearts... if that guy really got it right, they would definitely slaughter him with their own hands afterward.

Jinhsi, Changli, and Cartethyia hadn't reached the point of wanting to murder him, but they also made it clear that they would definitely make things difficult for him.

As for the others, either their names were different from before, or they simply didn't care at all, like the strongest Resonator of Solaris.

And finally, the Extra Large Cup Shorekeeper, ever since she awakened her independent consciousness... she was mostly just curious about everything in the world.

"Rover, time is almost up… haven't you thought of it yet?"

Meanwhile, Yangyang saw that there was only one minute left, but seeing that Rover still hadn't made a move, she immediately began to worry for him.

"Yeah, yeah! Although I also think no one could answer such a question. Although I also think no one could possibly answer such a Q&A, I still hope you can ruthlessly take those two Fractsidus jerks down a notch. Let's see if they still dare to look down on you."

It was hard to tell if Chixia's words were meant to cheer him on or if she was just worried for him.

In any case, it was at this moment that Rover slowly opened his eyes... smiled confidently, and gave the two girls a reassuring look.

[ Little Drifter: "My answers for the characters represented by 1 to 10 are as follows:" ]

[ Little Drifter: "Fractsidus Overseer Phrolova, Jinzhou Magistrate Jinhsi, Forest Girl Danjin, Huanglong Phoenix Girl Changli, Ghost Mercenary Calcharo, Montelli Family's Second Young Lady Carlotta, Fenrico the First, Lonely Tower Girl Cartethyia, Jinzhou Agent Yinlin, and finally, the Queen of the Night Lorelei." ]

[ Phrolova: "...." ]

[ Fenrico : "....⦍ShockedJinhsi.jpeg⦎" ]

[ Jianxi, Changli: "...." ]

[ Carlotta: "Huh? No... what on earth is that Little Potato supposed to mean?⦍AngryJinhsi.jpeg⦎" ]

[ Scar: "??? That whatchamacallit cave cooking woman is Phrolova? Real or fa…. ah—" ]

Obviously, before Scar could finish his sentence, he was already rendered unable to speak.

[ Sanhua: "How is this possible? How do you know Magistrate-sama…. mm… mm…." ]

[ Changli: "Little guy, you really are an intriguing fellow... So, who exactly are you?" ]

[ Little Drifter: "Little guy? You really... know how to call people, huh...⦍SmirksJinhsi.jpeg⦎" ]

[ Changli: "Oh? Could it be you're some old geezer? ⦍CuriousJinhsi.jpeg⦎" ]

[ .....]

" In Between "

At this moment, Rover felt a bit tempted to reply with, "I even held you when you were a baby."

But then he remembered that things hadn't developed to that point yet, and that cross-temporal journey... neither he nor Changli had experienced it yet.

Because of this, he dropped the idea of continuing the banter.

However, he would definitely find an opportunity to prove to Changli that he was absolutely not 'little.'

[ Ciaccona: "This… what exactly is going on? Could it be… he really answered correctly? ⦍ShockedJinhsi.jpeg⦎" ]

[ Cartethyia: "I... I have amnesia, and I've never even drunk alcohol, alright!" ]

[ Jinzhou Resident: "He couldn't… have really answered correctly, could he?" ]

[ Rinascita Resident: "Looking at how confident he is, it really seems like it." ]

[ Tacet Discord Whisperin: "That guy is probably just bluffing. How could anyone answer such a question correctly?" ]

[ Calcharo: "I don't know about the others, but the name corresponding to me is indeed correct." ]

[ Lorelei: "Mine is correct too, little guy~" ]

[ Little Drifter: "…..(By the way, this should be the wife Old Ma made for me, right? You also call me a little guy, don't you? Even if you're an Echo, just you wait...)" ]

[ Shorekeeper: "….. (So the extra-large Shorekeeper is actually an Echo? Little Drifter… Little Drifter… could it be you?) ]

[ Ding! Congratulations to Little Drifter for answering correctly! ]

[ You may choose either a Selectable ⦍✦✦✦✦⦎ Gold Treasure Chest or an Advanced Enhancement Stone as your reward. ]

Finally, with the chat group's verdict, Little Drifter's correct answer was settled. While most people were simply amazed, only a few hated him to the core.

[ Little Drifter: "As for the choice, it's definitely the Advanced Enhancement Stone" ]

[ Ding! Congratulations to Little Drifter for receiving the Advanced Enhancement Stone reward. ]

[ Next, the answers to the previous questions will be revealed in sequence. ]

[ Please watch the VCR. ]

[ As the chat group's prompt finished, scenes of various characters immediately appeared on the screen.

Among them, the figures of Changli, Cantarella, Augusta, and Carlotta were clearly present.

Just as people were marveling at the beauty of the girls while expressing their confusion, the characters on the screen began to move.

The first scene was on a flat road… where a step appeared.

The ones in front, Changli, Cantarella, and Augusta, were all fine... they each walked over it smoothly, without showing the slightest abnormality.

But when it was Carlotta's turn to walk up, as soon as she reached the step, it was as if her height wasn't enough... she actually had to use both her hands and feet to scramble over that single step. ]
