Chapter 106: Heading to the Demon Realm, Two People Meet
Chapter 106
"Then there's no need to think about it!" Gu Wanyin slapped her thigh. "What's there to be afraid of? Let's just go! It's perfect, having a chance to go to another world. I can go to the demon realm and see if I can rescue Nine-Tails and the others."
After a pause, she added, "However, the other Gu Wanyin might not be willing. If possible, can we go to different worlds separately? She doesn't need to follow me to the demon realm to rescue Nine-Tails and the others. She could go to another world and have a good time."
"I'll go ask."
The system returned shortly and said, "The other Gu Wanyin says she wants to go with you. She says it's exciting and she likes it. She's ready to leave anytime. Moreover, her system can also fully guarantee her safety, so there's no need to worry."
Gu Wanyin thought to herself, isn't this just two invincible people going to the demon realm together? What's there to be afraid of?
"Alright! Tell them we'll set off tonight."
"Understood, host."
...
Since they were leaving for the demon realm that night, Gu Wanyin chatted with Moon Eagle for a while to get a general idea of the situation in the demon realm, then took a nap in the afternoon.
When she woke up, it was already dark.
Gu Wanyin had dinner and instructed Cola and Hamburger to be good, go to school, and sleep well, assuring them she would be back soon.
Although Cola and Hamburger were worried about her, they were understanding enough not to ask too many questions.
"The other Gu Wanyin is about to set off too. You'll meet up directly in the demon realm," the system told her.
"Okay."
Before her afternoon nap, Gu Wanyin had already prepared her weapons.
Two knives and a gun, all modified by the system to be effective against demons.
However, Gu Wanyin wasn't going there to fight. The most important thing was to rescue Nine-Tails and the others.
Bringing weapons was just a precaution.
After changing into comfortable sportswear, she set off.
The passage to the demon realm was near the special building.
As Gu Wanyin approached, she saw a black road not far away.
It looked quite scary.
"Is this the entrance?" Gu Wanyin hugged herself silently.
"Yes, host. Don't be afraid, charge ahead!" the system encouraged.
"System, I wasn't that scared until you shouted like that. You startled me."
Gu Wanyin took a deep breath and slowly walked into the black passage.
However, the darkness didn't last long. After walking for a few seconds, Gu Wanyin saw light ahead.
As she passed through that light, she smelled the scent of trees.
What appeared before her eyes seemed to be a forest, with dense foliage and lush greenery.
When she had just arrived, it was night, but in the demon realm, it was still daytime.
Occasionally, small animals would run by, curiously glancing at her as they passed.
She could faintly hear bird calls in the distance.
Everything looked so peaceful.
It was completely different from what Gu Wanyin had imagined.
She had thought that with the turmoil in the demon realm, if not rivers of blood, at least it should have been a gloomy scene.
But now, it looked almost... idyllic?
"System, what about the other Gu Wanyin? Has she arrived?"
Before the system could answer, suddenly, someone tapped her shoulder from behind.
Gu Wanyin turned around to see a girl who looked about 80% similar to her, of a similar age, smiling at her.
This was exactly how she looked before she transmigrated!
For some reason, Gu Wanyin felt an instant connection with her, as if they were kindred spirits.
However, she wasn't sure how to address this girl.
Call her Wanyin? It felt weird, like she was calling herself...
Before she could come up with a solution, the girl said, "Hello, I'm Gu·Liying Shang·Angelina·Yingxue Yuhan Ling·Xueli Chi·Mei·J·Q·Antalia·Shang Meng Xun Mei·Hathaway·Rose Tear·Yu Ling·Xie Er·Wanyin."
Gu Wanyin: "..."
Her mouth twitched, and she directly grabbed the girl's shoulders, shaking her a few times. "Snap out of it!"
This must be the result of being bound to a Mary Sue system for too long!
The girl was shaken dizzy, but she did seem to come to her senses a bit. "Okay, okay, I get it. Ouch... To distinguish between us, you can just call me Gu Han."
Gu Wanyin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Thank goodness, there was still hope.
The two chatted for a while, briefly telling each other about their recent experiences.
Before transmigrating, Gu Wanyin, like Gu Han, was an orphan. However, her parents had passed away in an accident when she was sixteen, leaving her with a large insurance payout that was enough for her to complete university.
After they switched places, she ran a hotel in the apocalyptic world, while Gu Han continued her university studies and pursued the four most handsome guys on campus.
So far, both of their missions had been going smoothly.
"But I feel like my life has been too peaceful!" Gu Han sighed. "Now that I've almost completed the mission, pursued all four campus heartthrobs, and put all the bad people in their place... it seems like there's nothing interesting to do every day. Luckily, I have you to bring me to the demon realm for some excitement! And we're going to rescue some demons, right? Just thinking about it is thrilling!"
"Those demons are all good friends of mine, and they've brought a lot of business to my hotel. So I thought I should come and see if I could rescue them," Gu Wanyin said. "After all, we won't be in any danger."
"Mm-hmm! Don't worry, I'll help you!" Gu Han happily linked arms with her. "So where do we go now?"
"We'll first... Shh, come here quickly!"
Gu Wanyin pulled Gu Han behind a tree to hide.
Although Gu Han didn't know what was happening, she immediately held her breath and didn't make a sound.
At that moment, they heard footsteps.
The sound was very loud, as if some enormous creature was walking towards them. With each step, the ground beneath their feet seemed to shake.
Soon, they saw the owner of the footsteps.
It turned out to be a giant bear.
This bear must have been over six meters tall, with a massive build.
It hadn't taken human form, but it was clearly intelligent. It held a huge spear in its hand and kept looking around, as if on patrol.
However, it didn't discover Gu Wanyin and Gu Han.
After it left, the two of them came out from behind the tree.
"Interesting," Gu Han rubbed her chin. "This is the first time I've seen a bear with my own eyes, and such a big one at that!"
"I've seen bear demons at the hotel before, but none as big as this," Gu Wanyin said.
Although the two of them couldn't be harmed, they had just arrived and didn't want to alert any unfamiliar demons for now, to avoid affecting Nine-Tails and the others who were still in enemy hands. That's why Gu Wanyin had pulled Gu Han into hiding earlier.
