Tom knew very well that his mother was torturing him. She purposely cooked these cabbages for herself just to make herself sick. But Tom has no choice, because the rules of this world are like this, and only by obeying the rules can he survive.
Tom devoured the cabbage. Although it tasted far less delicious than meat, it was the only food he could eat and he had to finish it. He ate the plate of vegetables quickly, fearing that something would happen next second.
Mom saw Tom gobbling up the food and snorted disdainfully, then sat down to eat.
Beautiful Country [There are actually slices of pork belly hidden under the cabbage, these weird things are so cunning! ]
Beautiful Country [That’s not right! Why is Tom still eating! ]
It turns out that when mom threw food at Tom, the oil seeped into Tom's skin, causing Tom to be slightly contaminated.
As time goes by, Tom can no longer distinguish between meat and vegetables. The 'vegetables' on the plate gradually disappeared, and Tom's hunger gradually eased.
Only then did Tom have the time to observe his father carefully. His father's face was serious, and his expression looked like a robot, lifeless. He lowered his head and concentrated on eating the meat and vegetables. Those stinky pieces of meat seemed to turn into delicious delicacies in his mouth.
Tom noticed his father's hands. His fingers were long, pale, and without any calluses. His nails are clean and free of any dirt. This made Tom feel very strange, because he had never seen an adult's fingers so perfect.
Moreover, Dad didn't speak. He just ate the meat and vegetables quietly, as if nothing else in the world could attract his attention.
"Dad, do you think these meat dishes are delicious?" Tom suddenly asked.
Dad's hand paused for a moment, and his face changed back and forth, but both faces looked at Tom with a smile, "What do you think?"
At this moment, Tom suddenly felt dizzy and his vision became blurred. He shook his head vigorously, trying to wake himself up. However, his consciousness was still gradually blurring, and he felt like he was about to fall asleep.
Tom put his hands on the table, trying not to fall over. His eyelids grew heavier and he knew immediately that he had been tricked.
Damn it, when!
In a trance, he saw that his mother and grandmother had turned into another person, and the two distorted faces on his father's face showed a strange smile at the same time.
The moment his mother served the meat, Tom was already contaminated. However, the level of contamination at the time was so slight that Tom did not notice it.
As time passed, Tom felt his consciousness getting blurry. He knew that if he continued like this, he would forever lose his chance of sobriety.
He tried his best to use the prop [Stand-in Doll]
[Stand-in Doll]: An S-level prop, dropped from the S-level copy "Anna's Showcase". It is Anna's doll. Using this prop, all the owner's injuries can be transferred to the doll, and the doll will be broken after use.
pS: Anna gave it as a gift to her favorite brother, but he is a big liar.
After using [Stand-in Doll], the pollution on Tom's body was instantly transferred to the doll. The doll's shell began to crack, and Tom felt heartache as he looked at the doll's broken body.
This was the first time since he entered the dungeon that he felt sorry for an item.
Tom knew that if he did not use the [Stand-in Doll], he would completely lose consciousness and become a walking zombie in this strange copy.
After using the [Stand-in Doll], Tom's consciousness gradually became clear. He looked at his mother, grandmother, and father in front of him, and felt a chill in his heart.
This dungeon is really terrifying. Every monster will dig holes independently, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the hole they dug.
Tom looked at his father again. His father seemed to have become normal, his face became kinder, and his hands were covered with calluses.
Dad smiled strangely and continued to eat meat.
Tom felt a strange sense of crisis coming over him again. He quietly packed up the doll's pieces and hid them in his pocket.
Tom seemed to remember something.
"Thank you," Tom whispered, the only thing he could do.
Although it saved him, Tom couldn't guarantee that he would be so lucky next time.
In this copy, he must always be vigilant and carefully look for opportunities to survive.
[This is how S-level props are used. ]
[Wow, I was lucky enough to see S-class props being used. ]
Beautiful Country [We Tom lacks everything except props. ]
[I really got carried away with my compliments. If I remember correctly, this prop was tricked from a little girl. ]
[Yes, lacking everything and lacking in virtue. ]
Beautiful Country [Anna is weird, this is not a lie, this is a strategy. ]
Tom closed his eyes and prepared to take a rest. He didn't know what would happen next, but he knew that he had to recharge his batteries to face the next challenge.
At this moment, Tom suddenly felt a huge force pulling his arm. He opened his eyes in surprise and found that it was his father!
"Honghong, did you study hard today?" She looked at Tom with a smile and asked expectantly.
Dad's hand held Tom's arm tightly. His fingers were rough, and the skin of his fingers felt like they had been burned.
Tom didn't dare to act rashly and could only pretend to be nonchalant and replied: "Yes, Dad, I studied very seriously today."
A gratified smile appeared on his father's face, "Very good. We will take the exam after dinner. Honghong will definitely get an A, right?"
Tom was not surprised, he had already guessed his father's intention. In this weird copy, every monster has its own ability and purpose, and Dad's purpose is to punish them through exams.
"Dad, can I take a rest before dinner? I'm a little tired." Tom asked tentatively.
Dad's face changed and he said sternly: "No! The exam is very important, Honghong, you can't waste time, you know?"
Tom knew he couldn't resist, so he could only nod in agreement.
So, Tom was pulled by his father to the coffee table in the living room. He opened the drawer and found a set of test papers inside.
[Let me count, there are exactly ten questions, and I seem to know the answers. ]
Beautiful Country [What? ]
[You call me brother and I will tell you. ]
Beautiful country [You go too far! ]
Beautiful country [brother. ](withdraw)
[We are not trustworthy people. Anyway, Tom can’t see the barrage. The answer is: A, C, D, A, B, D, C, C, B, C. ]
Beautiful Country [The Chosen One cannot see the barrage. ]
[you're right. ]
