The other players immediately started slapping their thighs in regret. That was a 10% discount coupon! With it, they could have bought Victory Perfume for only 18,000!

Unfortunately, it was too late.

Under the guidance of the cartoon character in a suit, everyone gathered in the open space outside the Treasure Pavilion.

When Qi Xu first arrived in the instance, he carefully sensed the body he was currently in.

Although the strength stat is completely restricted and skills cannot be used, combat skills and strategies remain unaffected. Beating an ordinary player who is also restricted is a piece of cake.

In addition, I also wanted to experience the power of this "Victory Perfume" firsthand, which is why I stepped forward.

The player on the other side was clearly not very good at fighting; you could tell from his flawed positioning and lack of confidence.

But... until he sprayed on "Victory Perfume".

Qi Xu instantly felt immense pressure, a sense of helplessness he felt when he was still an immature little black bird facing a sleeping behemoth.

I didn't even dare to breathe freely. The immense pressure was like an icy tide, seeping into every inch of my skin and into the very bones.

The player opposite him instantly became incredibly confident. Despite raising his fist and running over in a completely haphazard manner, Qi Xu couldn't dodge. It was as if an invisible hand was controlling the opponent to make accurate predictions about all his actions.

Qi Xu took several punches, which didn't hurt or itch, but he felt helpless.

Qi Xu felt that this opportunity to battle was actually quite rare. Now that the Victory Perfume was on sale, he would inevitably encounter players with similar items in the future.

So how do we deal with this? Is the only way to have any hope or possibility of winning the battle if we also buy this item?

Qi Xu instinctively disliked this dungeon, as well as any of the NPCs and items within it, and had no desire to use them.

Even if this Victory Perfume could instantly give an ordinary player the strength to fight against a strong opponent, in Qi Xu's view, the player himself was nothing more than a manipulated puppet.

Judging from the other person's expression, he was only surprised and amazed by some of the actions he made. At first, he was somewhat resistant, after all, he had completely lost control of the situation.

But gradually, they began to enjoy it, and started to actively relinquish control of their bodies. Seeing through the surface, they realized that this so-called "victory" was nothing but a mirage.

As Qi Xu felt each force that was blocked, he became increasingly clear-headed and realized once again that a real battle was about composure under pressure, honed skills, and resilience to break through in dire situations, not about borrowed, fleeting, and false power.

Qi Xu had already realized how vicious this instance was.

Lure you in with the "Victory Perfume," but you can't afford it. Then, sell your memories at the "Story Pawnshop." Once this becomes a habit, what will happen as things slowly develop?

A puppet with no memories of the past, habitually controlled by illusions, will successfully replace a player who has experienced the joys and sorrows of life and has come this far through hardships.
