The apocalypse begins with a dungeon game.

Chapter 182 Eavesdropping on the Hair

His situation was rather unique; he went through a lot of trouble before finally making a decision, wasting a lot of time.

The timing was perfect for Li Can to do this, but for Zhou Ye, there weren't many opportunities to test him.

Therefore, sending him out of the instance first is the best option right now.

"I know, Peach Blossom, stop taking pictures. If you keep taking pictures, I'll be going to the next world first, cough cough cough." Zhou Ye coughed a few times and forcefully pushed away Li Can's enthusiastic hug.

Li Can saw that the "eavesdropping hairs" she had stuck to his back had already seeped through his shirt and were growing very closely into his skin.

He stopped acting and stepped back with a smile, so Zhou Ye didn't need to make any further excuses.

The two separated, and Li Can nodded to Zhou Ye, "Take care, keep in touch if anything happens."

He waved the bomber in his hand.

Zhou Ye gave an OK sign and took out the last black access card from his storage space, holding it in front of him.

He gathered his power and activated his supernatural energy. Gradually, an invisible vortex gathered on the black card, just like when Bai Zhuo used it before.

The next second, the pass was activated, and his body was enveloped in golden light, gradually dissolving and dissipating from his lower body.

"Don't linger too long, head back soon." These were the last, somewhat unclear words Zhou Ye left behind before disappearing.

Wang Defa and Li Lan simply waved thoughtfully, as if to say goodbye.

Until Zhou Ye left, none of them knew what Li Can had done.

He secretly injected the resource egg [Eavesdropping Hair] he obtained from the gashapon machine into Zhou Ye's body, which could also be considered an experiment.

Li Can himself was unsure whether this gashapon product could ultimately take effect across two different timelines and parallel universes.

If it is used only in one dimension, it will definitely succeed.

He read the description of the resource capsule again.

[Supply Egg: Eavesdropping Hair]

[It's just a tiny hair, you know what it's for... As long as you don't pluck it, and you get a hot hair removal treatment, you'll be able to eavesdrop on any sound within 5 meters of the person whose hair was transplanted.]

[You can turn off the eavesdropping channel when you don't want to listen anymore~]

Li Can looked at the empty ground where Zhou Ye had stood before leaving, lost in thought.

"It should have been successfully planted, but why haven't we received any immediate feedback from them? Could it be a failure right from the start...?"

"It's possible that the instance is still settling out of the instance and hasn't landed on Earth yet, so a slight delay is normal."

He could only console himself with this thought.

This experiment was not just a simple eavesdropping activity.

If we can confirm from Zhou Ye's experiment that the gashapon items he brought to Earth in another timeline are useful.

By taking advantage of each instance's duration, one can select some unused gacha items and, through the hands of other instance players, send them to various parts of Earth.

You could even take this opportunity to leave your sister some items for self-defense. Your parents are just ordinary people, so even if your sister doesn't need them, it would be good for her to give them to the elderly couple.

As for why Li Can didn't experiment directly on his sister Li Lan, it's because the limitations were too great.

My sister is gone now, and that's it. Whether the gashapon items will still work after she leaves can only be determined through mobile communication.

If it fails, the gashapon capsule will also be ruined, which is a huge waste.

Since Zhou Ye had already left, Li Can thought he was the best person to start the experiment with this prop.

Moreover, this is basically the only opportunity he will have to be in close contact with her, and it will also make it easier for him to eavesdrop on Chen Ling through Zhou Ye if he succeeds in the future.

It's a win-win situation, so why not do it?

Li Can was still a little disappointed that he hadn't received any news from Zhou Ye.

"Alright, Zhou Ye's gone. Let's have a frank talk, Peach Blossom. What are your thoughts on the fake man? What do you suggest Li Lan and I do when we get back to coordinate with you?"

Wang Defa's voice came out at just the right moment.

Li Lan nodded in agreement. "If there's anything I can do, I'll try."

Wang Defa and Li Lan both stared at Li Can, waiting for his instructions and arrangements for what was to come.

Li Can rested his chin on his hand and pondered for a while before beginning a simple analysis:

"First, we need to determine how we will communicate with each other in the future. Since Earth has been almost completely infiltrated by the fake humans, the private messaging function that this survivor forum comes with is probably no longer safe."

"And the only way I can contact you outside of the game right now is through this software."

"If this is the only software we can use, we need to take preventative measures at the source."

"If this is the only software we can use, we need to take preventative measures at the source."

Wang Defa: "That's true, otherwise my phone wouldn't have been directly installed with a new... cough, so that means we can't create group chats or speak directly in private, right?"

"That would be incredibly troublesome, requiring everything to be done like underground rendezvous, using coded messages and secret codes..."

Li Lan stood with his arms crossed, his upright figure bathed in the sunlight of the dungeon.

A gust of wind blew by, making her hair slightly disheveled.

"What Lao Wang said is actually feasible. Although it's troublesome, it's very safe."

"This is not only to prevent the fakes from capturing our chat information, but also to protect ourselves, since we are genuinely going to live on Earth."

"However, if we avoid all the key points in our conversations, it will be arouse suspicion, which is even more suspicious. It is better to leave some shortcomings."

"I think creating a group chat is a better cover. Try to avoid contacting each other via private messages. Only take action when absolutely necessary."

Wang Defa sniffed, listening to Li Lan's words while taking out his phone from his pocket and fiddling with it in front of his eyes.

"Alright, Peach Blossom, once we've all left the dungeon and can connect to the internet, you can set up a group and become the group leader, and recruit more people who want to take advantage of the situation."

"I've already thought of a name for the group. How about 'Blue Star Defense Alliance'?"

As he spoke, he held up his phone and showed it to Li Can.

Li Can glanced at it and realized that the chat box didn't contain any group chat name at all, but rather text that he had secretly typed for Li Can to see.

Can I trust Li Lan? I didn't dare say too much just now. Zhou Ye has already left; maybe I should have let her leave sooner. I just can't shake this feeling of unease.

Wang Defa's sudden change in behavior surprised Li Can. It seems that environment shapes people, and he now sees more and more potential and temperament for underground development in Lao Wang.

"No problem." Li Can's response referred to both the group name and Li Lan.

He had watched his younger sister grow up since she was a child, and this one in front of him, after a long period of observation, was exactly the same in terms of her living habits, personality, and mannerisms.

Secondly, we're family, so there's still some trust between us.
