"How is it? Little master, do you like it?"
Luo Jiajun's breathing became heavier, and he couldn't help but raise his hands to squeeze the woman's ample breasts pressed against his body.
But at this moment,
"Bang...bang bang...bang bang!"
Outside the supermarket, on the far edge of the city, the faint sound of gunfire could be heard.
Although the gunfire wasn't frequent...
After all, the city where Luo Jiajun is located is just a small county town. You should know that in peacetime, a small city that is not a border area usually has only a few dozen people, or at most a hundred, military forces, including the police station and the armed forces. Even if these people can organize themselves into a team immediately, they would only have a reinforced platoon and less than a company of firepower. How can they fight against the apocalypse?
Now, the gunshots coming from afar not only interrupted Achina's seductive teasing of Luo Jiajun, but also, from a nearby building just outside the supermarket, Luo Jiajun soon heard a shrill female voice shouting:
"Help! Help! Is anyone coming to save me!" Mei Youzai was in Yonglin Kongmei without thinking...
However, the woman's voice quickly followed with a scream.
With a loud "bang" like a heavy object falling to the ground outside, the woman's cries for help came to an abrupt end.
Although he was in the supermarket and his view was completely obscured by Achina's body, preventing him from witnessing the changes outside, Luo Jiajun was terrified just from the sounds he heard. It wasn't hard to guess that there must have been a woman who hadn't been killed hiding in a building somewhere outside.
Perhaps after hearing the gunshots, she thought the police or army had arrived, and without considering the distance of the gunshots, she hastily called for help, which startled the deformed plants. In her panic, she unfortunately fell to her death...
So now is definitely not the time to be shy!
Luo Jiajun, who had been aroused by Achina's teasing, quickly calmed down, and all his anger dissipated.
"Ahem, Archina, whatever you're going to do, do it later! We need to find a safe place first."
The truck must be driven, but Luo Jiajun doesn't want to be attacked by suddenly appearing mutated vines, man-eating flowers, or any other deformed plants while driving.
Achina had achieved her goal of teasing Luo Jiajun. Although Luo Jiajun appeared completely unmoved, she had been subtly sensing his erection with her fingertips while playing with the water pouch.
Once she realized that her little master also wanted it and wasn't completely unaffected by her temptations, that was enough for her.
So the woman pretended to be helpless and said "okay," then let go of Luo Jiajun and stopped clinging to him.
Then she straightened up again, her tone still unconsciously carrying a hint of allure as she asked Luo Jiajun:
"So, where should we go next, my dear little master?"
"Don't rush, let me think." Luo Jiajun bent down to gather the backpack that had fallen to the side, silently brought up the main interface of the apocalyptic game in his mind, and then opened the [Map].
Then Luo Jiajun noticed that a blue question mark representing "mission" had appeared on his and Achina's faces on the map!
How did a brand new quest suddenly appear on his and Achina's faces?
"What a coincidence? Even novels don't make things like this!" Luo Jiajun thought in surprise. He then zoomed in on the map and took a closer look. He found that the blue question mark on his face seemed to correspond to the withered leaf mummy that Achina had just killed outside the supermarket.
Well, there's definitely a reason behind it; it's not a coincidence!
"Archina, follow me." Luo Jiajun called out to Archina, raising one hand as if to tug at her skirt, but his hand deliberately and accidentally landed on Archina's ample and plump buttocks, and the action changed from pulling at the skirt to lightly patting her buttocks.
"Crack~!"
Luo Jiajun swore he really didn't use much force. It could only be said that the woman's buttocks were so plump that even a casual slap would make a sound, and the aftershocks would create waves of flesh.
Cynthia was taken aback by Luo Jiajun's sudden action, then lowered her head and gave Luo Jiajun a look that seemed reproachful but was actually full of charm.
Luo Jiajun, however, remained unfazed and spoke with righteous indignation.
From the moment Achina's delicate fingers began toying with his water sac, the atmosphere between them had already changed. Now that things had come to this, Luo Jiajun naturally needed to make a move; he couldn't let the size difference prevent him from remaining passive and being bullied by the larger vehicle!
A short while later, Achina arrived outside the supermarket with Luo Jiajun.
Seeing that Luo Jiajun had walked to the dead leaf mummy whose head he had cut off, she quickly moved closer to him, pressing herself against him, and warned, "Be careful of those thorny leaves. They seem to have life and can inhabit and control the dead."
The mummy lying at Luo Jiajun's feet now had only a few scattered, bristly leaves on its body. The rest of the bristly leaves were scattered on the nearby road and sidewalk, most of them crawling along the ground with their bristles as feet.
Without the cover of numerous thorny, withered leaves, the mummy at Luo Jiajun's feet revealed its true appearance. Its body had lost its original human vitality, becoming as withered as rotten wood. Beneath its bark-like dry skin, the flesh and blood seemed to have been completely drained.
As Luo Jiajun approached the already slain, withered leaf mummy, the game interface suddenly popped up in front of him, displaying a notification box:
[Accept new quest: Returning to one's roots?]
【whether】
Luo Jiajun chose yes without hesitation.
The next second, the game map opened automatically, and an expanded slot appeared on the right side of the map interface, showing the tasks that Luo Jiajun had accepted.
Fallen leaves return to their roots
【Task Requirements】: Investigate the source of the spiky dead leaves and find the trees that produce them!
[Task Time Limit]: None
[Quest Reward]: Plant-type Summoning Card x1
(Plant-themed Summoning Card: Using this summoning card will randomly summon a new teammate whose appearance and abilities match the plant theme.)
After reading the mission details, Luo Jiajun was filled with enthusiasm.
The task didn't seem too difficult; the only requirement was to find the source of the spiky, withered leaves. Even a fool could tell that the trees that produced these leaves were certainly not simple. But if the task only required investigating the location of these trees instead of destroying them, the difficulty would be much lower!
And the mission reward is a summon card! This not only means that Luo Jiajun will have an extra teammate (or partner), but it also means that Luo Jiajun will unlock more bond badges in the [Collection], which will further enhance his abilities!
However, when it comes to the prefix "plant-based," Luo Jiajun couldn't think of any female game characters that left a deep impression on him.
At that moment, only one line came to his mind: "Cactusmon evolves into Lilimon!"
Okay, but Digimon is an anime, not a game.
wrong……
and many more!
It seems there really are games based on Digimon! And quite a few of them!
hiss……
If we calculate it that way, anime IPs like Naruto, Bleach, and One Piece have also spawned quite a few games!
Many adult anime are adapted from eroge (adult games)!
Therefore, although Luo Jiajun can only summon "female game characters", the scope he can actually encompass is much larger than he imagined.

After reading the details of the "Returning to One's Roots" quest, Luo Jiajun also noticed that on the game map, centered on his current location where he accepted the quest, a pale golden circle was constantly flashing. The circle covered several city blocks, a range that was neither too large nor too small.
As a gamer, Luo Jiajun immediately recognized this as a form of guidance, hinting that the objective of the "Returning to One's Roots" task was within this circle.
"Fallen leaves return to their roots...fallen leaves...return to their roots..."
At this moment, Luo Jiajun suddenly looked down at the thorny, withered leaves scattered on the ground nearby and noticed that the movement trajectory of most of the withered leaves was faintly pointing north.
Looks like I'll have to follow these 'live leaves'...
With this in mind, Luo Jiajun looked at the game map again and found a treasure chest marker in an elementary school to the north. He could check it out on the way. (The last sentence appears to be a nonsensical string of characters and doesn't translate directly.)
But just as Luo Jiajun was about to call Achina to set off, a loud "bang" suddenly came from the roadside not far away.
From where the sound came, a tall, thin young man in a hoodie staggered out from behind an overturned car entangled by vines. His face was deathly pale, and his forehead was covered in cold sweat, but his eyes lit up the moment he saw Luo Jiajun: "Luo Zi! Help, help me!"
"Chen Yue?" Luo Jiajun was taken aback. This person was his neighbor and gaming partner.
The two had played various online games and multiplayer games on the Steam platform together.
Two months ago, Chen Yue asked Luo Jiajun to lend him some money, but Luo Jiajun refused because the amount was too large. Since then, Chen Yue has become estranged from Luo Jiajun, and Luo Jiajun naturally didn't want to try to befriend such a fake friend who was cold to him because he refused to lend him money.
That said, before the loan incident happened, Luo Jiajun and Chen Yue, who were gaming buddies, had also played Resident Evil 8 and discussed the game together.
But now, when Chen Yue's gaze swept over Archina, who was clearly from "Resident Evil 8," there was only pure terror in his eyes, not the surprise of "seeing a game character appear in reality." It was as if Archina, the "eight-foot lady" that every gamer should know, was a completely unfamiliar monster to him.
"Something's wrong!"
Suddenly, Achina stepped forward and blocked Luo Jiajun's path, her dark claws snapping out with a "whoosh".
"Be careful, that person smells of decay," the woman warned Luo Jiajun.
Luo Jiajun frowned immediately.
Upon hearing this, Chen Yue trembled and knelt down with a thud: "I don't know what you're talking about! Luo Zi, for the sake of our past friendship, please help me and take me with you!"
As he spoke, he crawled forward, his wrists, which had slipped from his sleeves, covered with bluish-gray veins, like tree roots winding beneath the bark.
Luo Jiajun took a half step forward and gently grasped Achina's wrist. He could feel the murderous intent brewing beneath the woman's taut muscles.
"What's that on your neck?" Suddenly, Luo Jiajun pointed to Chen Yue's collar—a dark green bud was visible there, trembling slightly with each breath.
Chen Yue clutched his collar, his eyes darting around in panic: "N-nothing! It was just a scratch from a leaf..."
"Cough! Cough cough cough cough!"
Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly knelt down and coughed violently, coughing up dark green phlegm. A moment later, he collapsed to the ground and lay motionless, seemingly dead.
After all, they were acquaintances, and seeing Chen Yue die suddenly in such pain, Luo Jiajun felt a surge of irritation.
"Crack!"
Unexpectedly, a crisp sound suddenly rang out from Chen Yue's corpse.
Luo Jiajun looked closely and discovered that Chen Yue's jawbone was strangely turned outward, and soon a bloody, four-petaled flower emerged from deep in his throat, with serrated teeth covering the edges of the petals.
Then, Chen Yue, who had already died, got up from the ground.
A low, beast-like growl came from his throat.
Its fierce eyes locked onto Luo Jiajun and Achina, and it immediately started running over at high speed.
"Back off!"
Achina pushed Luo Jiajun behind her, and her sharp claws, accompanied by a strong wind, slashed at Chen Yue who was rushing over.
With a "whoosh," a flash of cold light appeared, and Chen Yue's head fell to the ground.
Although its corpse no longer moved, the four-petaled strange flower with sharp teeth on its mouth was still writhing.
Seeing this, Achina bent down and swept her claws across again, severing the strange flower that had extended from Chen Yue's mouth. Only then did the scene fall silent.
After Archina retracted her claws, Luo Jiajun came to her side, looked at her snow-white palms, and seeing that there wasn't a trace of blood on them, Luo Jiajun whispered, "What's the principle behind this! Did you absorb all the blood?"
"Guess?" Archina smiled at Luo Jiajun, her relaxed demeanor suggesting that the sudden incident just now was completely insignificant to her.
Indeed, Chen Yue, parasitized by the plant and transformed into a monster, was still no match for this "eight-foot lady."
Luo Jiajun lowered his head and turned his gaze to Chen Yue's head, which had fallen to the ground and separated from his body.
After just one glance, Luo Jiajun looked away, feeling somewhat nauseous, yet unable to help but sigh...
This is the end of the world!
Luo Jiajun then squatted down, searched Chen Yue's body and found a mobile phone in his pocket, and then grabbed Chen Yue's hand to unlock it with his fingerprint.
"Young master, what's going on...?" Archina looked at Luo Jiajun curiously.
"It's a secret." Luo Jiajun winked at Achina, then walked to the side, clearly not wanting Achina to know what he was going to do on his phone next.
Achina was sensible enough not to force herself on Luo Jiajun.
At this moment, Luo Jiajun took Chen Yue's phone, opened the browser, and confirmed that the data network was still available. After all, the apocalypse had only just begun, and it was hard to say whether the network would still be usable after a while.
Remembering that Chen Yue hadn't shown any surprise when he saw Archina, Luo Jiajun impulsively searched for Resident Evil 8 on his browser, only to find that there was no information about Resident Evil 8 online!
Searching for "Achina Dimitrescu" yields the same results!
There is no relevant information!
Luo Jiajun was stunned. He immediately searched for the names of several other well-known female game characters, such as Tifa, Mai Shiranui, and Sylvanas, but still couldn't find any relevant information on the entire internet!
"Could it be that all the information about the female game characters I remember has completely disappeared from this world, including from everyone's mind?"
"I am the only exception!"
"Take Archina as an example. Does that mean I'm the only person in the world who knows she's actually a character in a game?"
In that light, it's no wonder Chen Yue felt only fear, not surprise, when he saw Archina earlier—he genuinely didn't recognize her! He didn't even know about the Resident Evil series of games!
But that’s fine too.
This means that, like Archina and all the female game characters summoned afterward, only Luo Jiajun in this world will know their backgrounds and have foresight!
