"Whirring whirring……"
"……This way, please."
"Is it...is it safe here? I, I can't run anymore..."
"Can't confirm, but now that there's no movement... this should be the safest direction."
Located in the woods near the Linjiang villa area in the real world, the figures of two women, one large and one small, gradually emerged from the artificial green bushes. The leading one slightly recognized the road that appeared in front of her.
, and then pointed in the east direction with a steady voice: "The sound of fighting is spreading to the south. It should be that they want to pursue the victory and use their tricks. As long as you don't go south, your escape route should be safe..."
"Wait, wait a moment."
As if she sensed something unusual in the other person's words, the little girl who had been holding his hand hurriedly shouted in a low voice: "Sister Ninglan, won't you come with us?"
"Ninglan is still a servant of the Duan family. If she disappears...it will cause trouble to many other people."
The same beautiful round face as in the game put on a standard smile, and the tall woman's figure bent slightly: "What's more..."
"Ning Lan still has so much beautiful bright red on her body. If she runs with you, the leader...she probably won't be able to escape smoothly."
Pointing to the eye-catching bloodstains all over her maid uniform, the woman who didn't care about cleanliness and etiquette still smiled and replied: "Don't underestimate the abilities of these people. In terms of tracking and assassination abilities... they don't have the same skills.
It’s inferior to Ninglan.”
"..."
"Don't worry, Ninglan will be fine."
The pungent fresh blood was still dripping from her fingertips. The taller woman smiled and licked her lips: "The leader has seen Ninglan's skills just now. Is it as good as in the game?"
"That's true, but..."
"Ninglan will protect herself, as long as you can successfully escape, leader."
Bowing slightly, the tall woman lifted up the hem of her skirt with bloody fingers: "As long as you can successfully leave here, Ninglan will be relieved of a large burden."
"……Yeah?"
As if remembering everything she had just done with her own hands, the little girl's voice that she originally wanted to insist on gradually deepened: "I, I'm really useless. At this time... all I can do is listen to them.
…”
"...The master has always valued you very much. Your presence is indispensable. As long as you return safely, there is a possibility that this matter will turn around."
Without mentioning anything the girl had experienced before, the tall woman raised her right hand full of blood. She wanted to touch the girl's finger, but she took it back hesitantly before it came into contact with the other person's skin: "
Go forward and turn along the road across the grassland in front. The earliest shuttle bus should pass by the intersection of the path at six twenty-seven, and you can stop it there."
"It's common for someone to appear in that place. You don't have to worry about the driver's suspicion." She folded her hands in front of her and watched the girl's retreat with a smile: "Let's go quickly, Yu Shang.
The lady is attracting their attention..."
"If you want to escape, there is no better opportunity than now."
The gradually rising dawn dispersed the dark trees in the night, and the black shadows of the two women slowly separated. The maid who watched the embarrassed little girl gradually disappeared from the place then withdrew her gaze.
At the same time, he also retracted the smile on his lips. Footsteps that were so light that they were completely indistinguishable then sounded at the far end of the bushes, and finally the ghost-like figure of the woman appeared in a corner of the villa area.
With a calm expression, she then ignored the occasional glances from around her and walked openly into the gate of the manor full of corpses: "..."
"That's her!"
"She, she actually came back?"
"How dare she come back? You guys! Give her to me... Hey, hey! Why are you running away?"
"Captain, please spare us. We are not professionally trained mercenaries. If we just charge forward like this, we won't even be able to make up a fraction of the head count... Huh?"
The running and shouting whispers that spread throughout the manor gradually stopped. At the same time, the eyes of everyone hiding in the light and dark appeared. They looked at the maid who was covered in blood.
The figure who disappeared into the front of the villa, the look of fear in her eyes gradually turned into doubtful eyes. She quietly opened the door of her room, and the woman who said nothing then turned her eyes from the outside world along with the gradually ringing sound.
The commotion was cut off, and she took two steps towards her own game cabin, and then stopped in front of the mirror above the dressing table: "..."
"This...should be enough."
She reached out and took off the maid uniform that was full of blood smell. She sighed and looked at the smooth skin exposed on the body wearing only underwear in the mirror, and then while gradually absorbing the explosive power contained under the skin, she jumped into the
Entering the game cabin: "The rest..."
"Just inform the master."
The white light of consciousness transformation appeared in front of her as the scene of the free world appeared. At the same time, the scene of two cities belonging to the underground and the sky were gradually getting closer together in the connection of a black tower. It seemed that
Having already understood this scene, she then quickly disappeared into the vast Feron Plains in front of Zaraha City with her ID code containing the code word Ninglan.
*********************
"Well……"
Her eyes were filled with hazy chaos. She slowly opened her eyes. The world that was supposed to appear in front of her now turned into endless darkness, like a dark night without moonlight and stars. She tried to stretch out.
Stretching out her fingers, she repositioned her recovered body in the center of the chaotic darkness, and then took the bright silver light that suddenly appeared over this area into her slightly blurred eyes:
"This is……"
By the way, I seemed to have stepped into the legendary tower before, and then...
Then……
Duan Qing?
The name of the figure who appeared in front of her came into her mind, and her pupils dilated slightly. The feeling that gradually diffused in her heart gradually became warmer, like a curve gradually growing in the dry desert.
Like an oasis. The silver brilliance also turned into the stars and the bright moon in the sky as her mood changed, making the night sky brighter and brighter. She took two steps forward and felt this feeling that she had never experienced before.
Feeling full of emotion, the hands that had been stretched out slowly retracted: "I..."
"Why are you here?" She hesitated for a while, and finally forced to suppress her increasingly strong heartbeat temporarily: "Shouldn't I..."
"Hahahahaha!"
The silent and delicate atmosphere was instantly broken by a burst of crazy laughter. At the same time, the beautiful and mysterious dark starry sky was broken. The silver light that returned to its original shape gradually changed in front of her.
It turned into a sticky piece, and finally transformed into a handsome young man with gorgeous clothes and an exaggerated expression: "We meet again, my fiancée."
"You seem to be more beautiful now."
The image of the young man dressed as a short-haired swordsman standing still next to him suddenly disappeared. Young Master Kuo pulled his long hair with extremely poor taste: "Not bad, not bad! What our Duan family likes most is you.
You’re a little girl, hahahaha!”
"...where is this?"
The emotions that gradually cooled down returned to Xue Ling Huan Bing's chest as her heartbeat calmed down. The still hazy woman began to look around here carefully: "Why... you?"
"Why? Of course it's because of you."
Kuo Shao raised his eyebrows when he said these words in a strange tone: "Don't go against your heart. You have been secretly in love with me, haven't you?"
"..."
"That's right, that's right, it's this kind of entangled expression!"
Looking at Xue Ling Huan Bing's face that suddenly fell silent, Young Master Kuo burst into laughter again: "Twenty-four years ago, the Chu family was almost destroyed because of your father. Your father sold you as a fetus to the Duan family.
And given the opportunity to continue to survive in a big family, your mother also had a gap with your father because of this incident, and finally died on the hospital bed..."
"You have been carrying hatred since you were a child. After you learned the truth, you never stopped resenting my fiancé." He laughed and pointed at his face: "We have never even met.
, you are already anxious to get rid of such a close relationship between us, right?"
"...I'm out of it now."
"No, no, no, you're not free."
Opening his mind in the direction of Xue Ling Huan Bing, the smile on Mr. Kuo's face became more and more distorted: "You never thought about how much you would pay to break off that engagement. You never thought about it.
You never thought that you would actually drag the Chu family into the abyss again in the next three years. You never thought that I, who should be responsible for all this, had disappeared three years ago. You never thought...
…”
"I will appear in your world again in three years."
He twisted his body, and then made an ugly pose towards Xue Ling Huan Bing that he thought was handsome: "As a man, am I not bad? Miss Ling Bing?"
"...Are you mocking me?"
The waves in her heart gradually appeared in Xue Ling Huan Bing's chest as her anger rose. At the same time, she completely squeezed out the last few warm feelings she had left: "Mocking my initial struggle? Or did I fall in love again later?"
Your stupidity?"
"Aha, I was just mocking the unfairness of fate." Young Master Kuo squeezed his eyes: "After all, after following me around for so long, a fool can see how you feel in your heart, right? What a pity, what a pity..."
"In the end, I became the last stumbling block for you to regain your family." He laughed and said, "I became... your enemy."
"I won't fail again!"
As if she heard a certain word that was hard to control, she suddenly pulled out the long sword that appeared in her hand at some point and finally rushed towards the direction of the Kuo young man: "I won't either...
…succumb to your curse again!”
"Ah ha ha ha ha! This is impossible!" What answered her was the rich young man's body suddenly flying towards the chaotic sky, and his increasingly harsh laughter: "Your fate has been determined! Because you have no idea at all.
You are no match for me!"
"You who cannot resist me will surely fall at my knees!"
【Ding--】
[Mission change: Destroy the illusion.]
There was a vague system prompt in my ears, but it was ignored by Xue Ling Huan Bing, who had lost her mind and suddenly rushed towards her. At the same time, she kept slashing at the man in front of her.
The movements around her, and the viscous liquid that appeared one after another in the silver chaos, were also under the control of some invisible force, gradually wrapping her in it with more and more illusions. It was like responding.
As her consciousness sank, the black air surrounding the same figure above the Sky City became a little darker, and the crazy-like body was then driven by increasingly powerful ancient power.
Next, he launched attacks again and again in the direction of a certain figure above the central hall: "Yes, yes! The effect I want will be realized soon! Hahahaha!"
"You... used the hallucinogenic effect of the Emerald Star to forcibly change her consciousness?"
As if he had determined something from the long tug-of-war, Duan Qing, who had been resisting the impact of the Snow Spirit Phantom Ice, turned his head and looked at Liangchen Meiyu's wildly laughing face: "How is this possible?"
"Of course I can't change a person's consciousness, but the Emerald Star can." Liangchen Meiyu, who had stopped laughing, smiled and put her hands on her back: "The power of the Emerald Star is very powerful, but it is not an ordinary person.
What the players can bear, if they cannot restrain it from constantly changing the settings of all existences around them, the players who own it will be equivalent to useless accounts..."
"Our ice goddess doesn't seem to have such willpower, so I begged the Magic Council to make a silver mask for her." When he said this, he raised the corner of his mouth again: "The effect of that mask is to suppress her because
The negative consciousness arising from those illusions is then... separated into another personality."
"...This is simply treating the symptoms rather than the root cause." Duan Qing, who once again escaped from Xue Ling Huan Bing's irrational attack and shouted loudly, shook his head: "No... you did this on purpose.
It’s done, right?”
"Yes, you are very smart." Liangchen Meiyu clapped her hands: "I stuffed the Emerald Star, and I also stuffed the mask. The Magic Council and I know the secrets, and of course there are corresponding ways to deal with it...
Isn’t it?”
"So...she is crazy now?"
"Of course not, she is still her."
Spreading her arms, Liangchen Meiyu made an introduction: "But now... what you see of her is another personality dominated by negative emotions, nothing more."
"...That's why her personality became so twisted, as if she was a different person."
Confronted with the long sword in the hands of Xue Ling Huan Bing who was bullying him, Duan Qing gritted his teeth and turned his attention back to the woman whose body was wrapped in black aura: "How to restore her?"
"Recovery? This is impossible." Liangchen Meiyu laughed innocently: "Even if she is on the dark side, she is still herself..."
"We are only responsible for guiding her to become a bad person. As for what will happen next...how can I control it?" (To be continued)
