Chapter 243
Ling Wu glanced at her nickname, "Adela?"
“Yes, I am Adela!” The girl in the black dress pursed her lips and nodded resolutely.
"Do you want to go home?" Ling Wu asked gently.
Adela lowered her head, her face filled with sorrow. "I want to, but I can't go back to my home now, and I don't know if I'll ever be able to leave here..."
Lingwu looked at her and said, "I will take you home."
“But our home…” Adela didn’t know how to say it.
Are you saying this is just a game, and their identities are all made up?
Or is their home in a real world that the princess could never visit in her lifetime?
Adela opened her mouth, but didn't know how to continue.
“I know, you are not from this world.” Ling Wu gazed into her brown eyes.
As soon as Ling Wu finished speaking, those players who were mocking Adela instantly fell silent!
They stared at Lingwu in disbelief, as if they had heard a fairy tale.
"How...how did you know?" Adela was even more shocked.
Ling Wu didn't speak, but her lips still held a gentle, spring-like smile, yet everyone could sense her sadness.
"Don't be afraid, I will take you home."
After Lingwu finished speaking, she lifted her skirt and stood up. With a flick of her finger, the dense array of arrows in mid-air vanished in an instant.
She lifted her skirt and looked up at the sky. "It's actually quite real, isn't it?"
She seemed to be talking to herself, but the surviving players remained silent, some even lowering their heads.
It's very real, but they don't want to be trapped here for the rest of their lives.
“No one would be willing, and neither would we,” Ling Wu said, as if she knew what they were thinking.
There were no new messages on the channel; the last message remained a question-and-answer session.
"—I'm outside the capital and know nothing. Do any of your friends who are with the princess have any updates?"
"She has regained consciousness, but she is still willing to send these to us, you could say, to the players who once toyed with her, to go home."
After saying that, they were put on a 30-minute silence.
Of course, it was Ling Wu who made it.
If she doesn't let everyone see this sentence, then all the acting she just did will have been for nothing.
Landric finally obtained the crown, but having lost all his authority, he naturally had no idea what had happened.
Holding the crown, Feng Jing walked steadily toward Ling Wu, enduring countless gazes.
His back was also pierced by the rain of arrows, and blood gushed from the wound, staining his platinum royal robes red, a horrifying sight.
"Awu, your brother will crown you."
"But the teacher said that princesses don't need to be crowned."
Feng Jing shook his head, his smile both tender and mad: "Princesses don't need to be crowned, but the king's queen can be crowned."
Upon hearing this, Ling Wu was not shocked; instead, a group of players were utterly astonished.
A group of players glanced silently at their zero progress in exploring the story, then looked at each other, frowning and shaking their heads to indicate that they knew nothing.
“Awu, your brother can…” Feng Jing glanced at the player, then leaned down and whispered to Lingwu, “Your brother can take you to the East, as long as Awu is willing to wear this crown.”
Lingwu glanced at the crown, which was magnificent yet elegant, with priceless jewels inlaid on it.
Seeing her gaze fall, Feng Jing assumed that Ling Wu was interested.
He continued, "Awu said before that this world is too fake, but now, as long as you are willing, Brother Wang can take you to the real world."
They didn't communicate much; even Adela and Wen Xing could only hear a few words.
But one can vaguely see that Crown Prince Landric is forcing the princess to marry him!
"Shameless," Adela muttered angrily.
Ling Wu raised her right hand, and as her fingertips moved slightly, jewels glittered. Feng Jing then saw the 'Queen's Ring' on Ling Wu's finger.
"When we arrived, A-Wu wasn't wearing it yet. Now that she's wearing it, does that mean she agrees?" Feng Jing's smile deepened.
"What? Does the king's coronation ceremony include marrying a princess? I do have a princess here. I wonder if Your Highness would be willing to marry her?" the man said in a deep, magnetic voice.
The first thing you see is Alcipe's striking light blond hair, and he's carrying a pink pig dressed in a princess dress.
"Hmph hmph—" the pink pig grunted.
Feng Jing's expression remained unchanged; he simply lowered his head and asked Ling Wu, "A-Wu, are you willing?"
“She doesn’t want to!” Alcipe answered again for Lingwu.
This time, Feng Jing's voice was much more subdued: "The guards of the royal city are going to be replaced."
After saying this, he gently said to Lingwu, "Awu, sit still and wait for your brother to return so he can crown you."
He knelt down on one knee, took Lingwu's hand and kissed it, while a sharp arrow pierced the air in the distance and landed three inches away from Landric.
This is a warning.
Feng Jing, however, did not care and wanted to continue to leave his mark, but Ling Wu let go of his hand.
Seeing this, he sighed softly, lowering his head to conceal the sadness in his eyes.
When he stood up again, he reverted to his usual noble and aloof demeanor as the Crown Prince.
Alcipe, carrying the pink pig, asked, "What? Is Your Majesty so eager to propose to our Princess of the Pearl Kingdom?"
Landric drew the sword of a royal guard, showing no anger, but when he looked up, the coldness in his eyes was like frost high in the sky.
Many people watched their battle with great interest, but Lingwu was not interested. She took off the queen's ring from her finger and plucked a vine to put the ring on.
Then she put it on the pink pig that was "huffing and puffing" as it ran towards her.
Adela found it amusing and forgot where she was. She cupped her face in her hands and said, "My wife is so cute."
Ling Wu glanced back at her, then smiled and said, "There are even more beautiful ones, you'll see them in a moment."
outside world
Feng Xiaobei pressed the last button on the mainframe, then chuckled as he gazed at the girl who was putting a necklace on the pig.
After a short while, he exhaled and then typed a code on the mainframe to adjust the game's timeline to 15 days: 1 day.
Fifteen days should be enough for Awu to have a good time in the game.
While waiting for the program to run, he took one last look at the android, then smiled and entered the game pod.

In-game
Landric was already injured, and his face turned even paler, but his wounds were slowly healing.
"With me here, no one can hurt my lovely little princess." Alcipe spat out a mouthful of blood.
He glanced at Ling Wu out of the corner of his eye, but when he didn't get a single look from her, Alcipe couldn't hide the bitterness in his heart.
"Wen Xing, the time has come, aren't you going?" Ling Wu's voice was very soft.
Knowing what he meant, Wen Xing immediately drew his sword and walked towards Landric.
“Your Majesty, please forgive my disrespect.” He bowed, then with a cold expression, he drew his sword and struck at Landric.
A giant dragon flew in from the distant horizon, its dark mass resembling a sea of clouds, its eyes seeming to hold flames so intense that no one dared to look directly at it.
It breathed out dragon's breath, and sparks ignited all the pink and white roses in the Rose Kingdom.
Everyone ducked and avoided it, but the dragon remained unmoved and descended in front of Ling Wu.
Those dragon eyes held tenderness and affection.
The expression on the face of the blond Crown Prince when he leaned down to say those words that night was exactly the same.
That day he said, "Celestia, I hope you will always keep this choice and never change it."
"Brother Wang has finally come to pick up Awu."
