At this moment, Ye Gubai was unaware that he had been mistaken for a gay man.
Otherwise, he would definitely be left speechless, both amused and exasperated.
As someone who travels through time, I watched a lot of short videos before I did so.
In his world, what kind of beautiful women aren't there online?
If you want, you can be like an emperor, seeing different beauties every day of the year.
Regardless of whether they are wearing makeup or using beauty filters.
Seeing too many beautiful women can increase one's immunity to encountering them.
Commonly known as: tired of it.
Although in this world, women are all naturally beautiful.
However, Ye Gubai has strong resistance, so he naturally won't show mercy to Ji Qianlong just because she is beautiful.
"I don't ask for much. Just produce an epic item of level 20 or higher, and I'll let you off the hook."
After a brief moment of thought, Ye Gubai gave his conditions for releasing the people.
Upon hearing the ransom demand, Ji Qianlong's face showed distress.
Epic items also require a level of at least 20.
This price is a bit high, amounting to approximately 30 to 40 million yuan.
But the thought of being eliminated in the preliminary rounds of the battle as a saintly woman would surely bring all sorts of criticism back home.
Therefore, even if it costs a lot of money, you must persevere to the very end.
"With this skill you've created, can people outside still see it?"
Ji Qianlong did not rush to agree, but instead asked with some concern.
"I don't know, but it's highly likely that it won't be observable," Ye Gubai said frankly.
The actual situation was pretty much as Ye Gubai had described.
In reality, the battle space projected on the screen is just a black sphere.
The inside of the sphere was not displayed on the screen.
The most likely reason for this phenomenon is the spatial layering.
(The screens in the real stadium can only project images from the Co-op Space.)
(If a new space is generated within the shared battle space, the screen will be unable to detect the images within it.)
"Fine, I believe you." Ji Qianlong had no choice.
Even if she had any doubts, all she could do for now was secretly hope that the scene of paying the ransom wouldn't be seen by outsiders.
"This is an epic skill: Shadow Clone."
Ji Qianlong walked over and handed her a booklet.
Ye Gubai took it and began to examine the skill's overview.
———
Shadow Clone Special Skill
Active effect: Creates a clone.
Clone ability: mimics the movements of the original body, without causing damage.
Duration: 2 seconds
Cooldown time: 1 minute
Mana cost: 50
———
After a quick examination, Ye Gubai smiled and said, "Yes, it's enough to redeem your life."
Hearing this, Ji Qianlong breathed a sigh of relief.
She was also worried that Ye Gubai would find the skill useless and wouldn't let her live.
Ultimately, the use of this shadow clone is not very meaningful.
Aside from creating a 2-second clone to confuse the opponent, it's completely useless.
Not only does it cause no damage, but it also has a short duration.
Despite its epic-level status, it's essentially the worst of the worst.
She almost burst out laughing when she thought it could be used as ransom.
"Now that the deal is done, can you let me out?" Ji Qianlong asked excitedly.
"Not yet." Ye Gubai shook his head: "The space will only be unblocked when the time comes."
"Huh? It's that complicated?"
Ji Qianlong was a little depressed; she really didn't want to be with a gay man.
Although this gay guy is strong and good-looking.
However, Ye Gubai's sexual orientation was incorrect, which made her have no intention of continuing to develop a deeper relationship with him.
"Well, either you die and the skill cancels itself."
"Or, just wait for the skill's duration to end and let it dissipate on its own."
Ye Gubai put away the Shadow Clone skill book and gave a brief explanation.
Hearing this, Ji Qianlong didn't know what else to say.
If she angers Ye Gubai, it would be troublesome if he attacked her again.
After all, there was no protection in their transaction, so it didn't matter whether Ye Gubai kept his promise or not.
Fortunately, they spent a minute and a half just discussing the deal.
They didn't have to wait long before the time to maintain the space ended.
(Duration of the final battle: 3 minutes)
The battle space began to collapse, and the two returned to reality.
As soon as Ji Qianlong stepped onto the ground, she saw a beautiful woman with purple hair walking towards her.
"Huh? How come she's not dead?" Zi Yue Ru asked, puzzled. "Could it be that your move only binds her and doesn't cause any harm?"
“Of course not,” Ye Gubai explained. “She paid the ransom, so we let her go.”
"Ransom?" Zi Yue asked in surprise, "How much?"
"An epic skill book."
At this point, Ye Gubai smiled.
Among the conditions he offered Zi Yue Ru for the exchange, an epic-level skill could be exchanged for 7 days of accompanying service.
If Ji Qianlong knew, she would probably be extremely upset.
"So extravagant? This girl must be someone important." Zi Yueru looked at Ji Qianlong with curiosity.
However, Ji Qianlong had not yet recovered from her daze.
During the final battle in the space, she thought Ye Gubai was gay.
But when she returned to reality and saw Zi Yueru, she realized that she had been overthinking things.
He's not gay at all; he's just not interested in me, which is why I haven't developed any feelings for him.
The woman in purple before him might just be his true love.
Otherwise, given Ye Gubai's strength, why would he only bring her along and not his other teammates?
"Ah~~" Ji Qianlong cried out in frustration.
This sudden movement startled Zi Yue: "What are you doing?"
"No..." Ji Qianlong was somewhat discouraged, and spoke weakly: "My name is Ji Qianlong, and I am the current Holy Maiden of Ji Hua Kingdom. It's a pleasure to meet you."
"Um, my name is Zi Yue Ru," Zi Yue Ru replied politely.
"Alright, let's go." Ye Gubai was too lazy to waste any more words.
He summoned a blood-red shattered blade and quickly left with Zi Yue Ru.
Instead of wasting time talking nonsense, you might as well find more people to kill and earn points.
Watching the two leave, Ji Qianlong felt a mix of emotions.
She finally understood that the talent for enhancing charm was not a panacea.
There are men like Ye Gubai in this world who have normal sexual orientations but are not affected by her.
A moment later, Ji Qianlong's eyes lit up with fighting spirit.
She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth.
"Once I reach the later stages, if the first job advancement isn't enough, I'll try the second."
"I refuse to believe that once my abilities improve, I won't be able to influence you through my passive talent!"
Ji Qianlong has a strange way of thinking; she has always been the center of attention and adoration since she was a child.
Today she met a man who was quite unusual and almost killed her.
Not only did she not hold a grudge, but she also planned to come back and continue to seduce Ye Gubai after she improved her abilities.
This strange idea is not unreasonable.
Having made up her mind, Ji Qianlong turned and ran to the other side.
She wanted to recruit another group of people to be her suicide squad.
At the same time, try to repair the shattered self-confidence within yourself.
