Chapter 445
"Miss Wen Xin, please have some water."
Kiyohime took out a clean, unopened bottle of mineral water and handed it to the girl sitting under the red rock, who was resting her fair and delicate face on her hands and gazing into the distance.
Today marks their tenth day in this red wasteland.
She still hasn't found her brother. The communication ring's signal completely dropped a couple of days ago, and now she doesn't even have her brother's coordinates.
I'm such a loser, I don't even get to play games with my brother, sob sob...
Sigh, I wonder if her brother has received her longing?
Xiao Jin: "..."
What strange new persona is the owner adding to himself?
Is she a teenage girl going through puberty?
Wen Xin: Get out!
Kiyohime was unaware that the mysterious girl before her was in the mood for romantic thoughts. Her gaze fell upon the red wasteland, her heart heavy.
Since arriving here, the players have been living an extremely...exciting life every day!
This fragment of the world is not only ridiculously large, but also extremely dangerous, with almost no safe spots.
Can you imagine walking down the street and suddenly a stone next to you comes to life and attacks you?
You finally find a sheltered spot from the wind, but it turns out to be inside the rock monster's mouth or belly. How awful is that feeling?
However, the rock monsters were already terrifying enough, but the most dangerous thing was the black storm that occurred every three days.
Kiyohime had the privilege of witnessing how those swept away by the black storm were completely obliterated, leaving no trace of their bodies. She had seen how any tools or abilities were utterly useless against the terrifying storms of nature, like ants trying to shake a tree.
Only when those rock monsters turn into rocks in the black storm and take root in the soil can they escape the terrifying black storm.
This is why the only living creature in the Red Wasteland is the Rock Monster.
The players are the most unlucky ones. If they don't hide inside the rock monster's body, they will be killed by the black storm. If they hide inside the rock monster's body, what's the difference between that and sending a lamb to the slaughter?
Damn it, since Kiyohime became a top-twenty player on the leaderboard and started participating in special missions, she has never encountered such a deadly world fragment.
If she hadn't met Wen Xin, she would also be one of those whose remains have been lost.
Thinking about this, Kiyohime almost exploded.
Princess Kaguya, that perverted woman!
Unlike Wen Xin, who landed alone on this wasteland, Kiyohime coincidentally landed with Kaguya-hime.
Although she was reluctant, she also knew how dangerous special missions were.
Unlike regular dungeons in the game arena, in special missions, players in the same game are on the same faction and share the same interests.
Kiyohime no longer liked Kaguya-hime, but with the mission and her own safety taking precedence, teaming up was the best option.
But she never expected that Princess Kaguya was simply mentally unstable.
When they encountered players from other game areas, she surprisingly turned against them and tried to kill her on their behalf.
If Kiyohime hadn't used the teleportation item in time, she would have lost her life.
But she was also quite unlucky, as she was seriously injured when the black storm arrived.
Fortunately, she survived and happened to encounter Wen Xin, who was traveling on a giant rock monster.
Yes, that's right. While everyone else was still miserably being chased by rock monsters, this person had somehow tamed a rock monster and made it work for her.
They fled for their lives, covered in dust and dirt, while she strolled leisurely across the red wasteland, as if she were there for a vacation, not to escape danger.
Kiyohime said: "In the past, it was always the top players on the leaderboard who were showing off, but now we're the ones showing off?"
She finally understood the mixed feelings of awe and envy that those players had towards them before.
Kiyohime glanced at the rock monster that had transformed into a cave to shelter them from the wind and rain, then looked at the clean and beautiful girl beside her and thought to herself, "Who would have thought that she is just a new player who has only recently entered the game?"
No wonder he was chosen by that butler.
Wen Xin took the water from her and said, "Thank you."
You're too kind.
Kiyohime was very respectful, not only because she was Mr. Butler 01's agent and the future mistress of the game, but also because she had saved her and because of her own formidable strength.
"I wonder how others are doing?"
Kiyohime murmured something.
Then she chuckled again: "As long as they don't suffer the same misfortune as me, running into that insane, treacherous woman, Princess Kaguya, protecting themselves shouldn't be a problem."
After all, the players who came this time were all top ten players on the leaderboard, a group of seasoned veterans with countless ways to survive.
"I don't know if Mr. 01 assessed the danger of this world fragment too high, which is why he selected all the top ten players this time."
"Yes, brother is very capable."
Mentioning Butler 01, the usually quiet and aloof girl's eyebrows curved into a smile, which became lively and sweet.
Kiyohime: "..." I feel like I've been fed a mouthful of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection).
However, unlike ordinary players, the more they participate in special missions, the more they realize how lucky they are to have been chosen by Mr. 01 to become a player.
At the very least, Mr. 01 wouldn't resort to any means to plunder more resources, arbitrarily sending them to their deaths as cannon fodder.
Even though their gaming arena is dangerous and indifferent, the rules are strict, and they treat every player fairly and seriously.
Wen Xin looked at her and smiled, "Because my brother is very powerful, he has no need to plunder anything from you."
Kiyohime paused for a moment, then smiled and remarked, "You and Mr. 01 have such a good relationship."
Wen Xin nodded as if it were the most natural thing in the world, “My brother is the best to me.”
Kiyohime reluctantly endured the display of affection, but her expression turned serious as she earnestly warned, "Miss Wenxin, you must be careful of that woman, Kaguya-hime. It's not that I'm trying to sow discord, but she's become obsessed with Mr. 01 to the point of madness."
Wen Xin said calmly, "I know."
Kiyohime asked in surprise, "You're not angry?"
Wen Xin said, "Why should I be angry? It's everyone's right to like whomever they want, and my brother is so outstanding, how could I be the only one who likes him?"
Kiyohime was speechless for a moment. She thought of that butler, who was powerful and handsome. If it were her... well, every time she saw him, she only felt a little creepy. Soft and cute boys were much more endearing.
"I was a player at the same time as Kaguya. When she first entered the game, she was very inconspicuous because her abilities were very weak and useless in the early stages. She could only be a scout. But no one dared to bully her because she had a twin sister who protected her."
Princess Kaguya's older sister entered the game before Princess Kaguya. Although her abilities are also related to her eyes, she is much more powerful than her younger sister. She can not only bewitch and confuse people, but even monsters cannot escape her charms.
Moreover, her sister was the lover of the top player on the leaderboard at the time. With such a powerful backer, who would dare to bully or provoke the sisters?
