“Qiuqiu—” Troyes had to admit that he was afraid.
He actually felt fear because of a human; he was afraid she would die, but it didn't seem to be because of the sacrificial power she possessed.
Almost the instant he noticed something was wrong, he immediately loosened his grip, but Gu Qingqiu's body slid down as if it had lost its support.
Troye reached out to take it, but felt the life force seem to be slowly draining away from the human body.
Gu Qingqiu heard Troye's shouts. She desperately wanted to open her eyes to respond, but her eyelids were too heavy for her to open.
She finally realized that she might die like this.
The wizard must have had a backup plan in case she didn't die at the bottom of the sea. Judging by the time, she had indeed been in the deep sea for almost a week.
Many spells are said to have an effective duration of three or seven days.
So, is it her death day now?
If she dies, will Troye be sad?
Gu Qingqiu suddenly felt a little regretful. She shouldn't have argued and talked back to Troye. Even if she died, she might not be a perfect image in his eyes.
The mission in this world is about to fail again. Will she be sent back to a punishment world by the God System...?
In a daze, Gu Qingqiu felt a warm object press against her lips, and then it seemed as if air entered her lungs.
It took her a long time to realize, while she was still in a daze, that it felt like she had been kissed.
Troye... was actually kissing her, but it didn't seem like a simple kiss.
When the coverings disappeared and their bodies pressed tightly together, Gu Qingqiu's first reaction was that the mermaid was actually warm.
In the deep sea, this body radiated heat, luring Gu Qingqiu closer, tempting her to sink and fall.
Gu Qingqiu felt that agile and powerful fish tail again. It seemed to have swung at her again, but this time the force was very light. The scales slid over Gu Qingqiu's smooth and delicate skin, leaving a shiver.
She felt as if every cell in her body had come alive, and the blood flowing in her veins was about to boil, all yearning for the mermaid's closeness.
A pair of hands with distinct knuckles slowly parted her thighs. Gu Qingqiu instinctively sensed danger and tried to shrink her body, but although the other person's movements were gentle, the force was getting stronger and stronger.
"Don't be afraid." A seductive, deep male voice rang in Gu Qingqiu's ear.
How could I not be scared!
Gu Qingqiu felt that she had regained some mobility, but her eyelids were still very heavy and she couldn't open them at all.
However, if she were to open her eyes, she might be frightened by the changes in the mermaid's body.
Troye's once deep blue eyes were now almost black, and his muscles were tense, as if he was suppressing something, or perhaps displaying his formidable strength as a threat to his prey.
A cold sensation came from behind, and Gu Qingqiu realized that Troye had carried her to the marble bed.
So next...
Warm lips pressed against hers again. Gu Qingqiu felt both pleasure and fear, especially when she realized that the "clothes" Troye had made for her seemed to have been taken off.
"Qiuqiu, survive," Troye said. "Stay with me for the rest of your life."
It wasn't until she tasted blood in her mouth that Gu Qingqiu gradually realized Troye's purpose—she had seen related content in the library's collection before, but she hadn't expected it to be true!
Troye is trying to turn her into a mermaid too!
After realizing the other party's intentions, Gu Qingqiu suddenly wasn't so scared anymore, but her mind wandered to all sorts of random thoughts.
Even if she turned into a mermaid, she still couldn't be with Troyes forever because of the damn countdown; she could only stay in this world for three years.
But after she becomes a mermaid, will she never be able to return to land? Her parents in this world must be heartbroken, never to see her again. Will she have to stand against humanity alongside the Trojans? She truly desires world peace, but now her wish is clearly difficult to fulfill.
As someone who had died once, Gu Qingqiu was actually unwilling to accept her fate. She died at a young age and had unfulfilled ambitions. Perhaps because of this, she was chosen by the female supporting character system and began to travel through one world after another.
The female supporting character system told her that if she did not cooperate, she would return to her state of death, and everything would turn to dust.
But as long as she cooperates, she can not only gain life points, but after she has gained enough life points for a certain period of time, the God System will reshape her physical body and let her return to her original world.
The temptation was too great. Playing the female supporting role was not difficult. Gu Qingqiu just thought that she had changed to another world to work. But later, the female supporting role system left and the male lead system came.
From then on, Gu Qingqiu's journey through time began to become exciting. In order to complete her mission, she got close to the male lead and couldn't help but fall in love with him. She returned to the standby space station with either physical injuries or emotional heartache, and then used props to pretend that nothing had happened and continued to enter the next world.
But how could something that has already happened be truly erased from memory? Perhaps because she was still in a near-death state, Gu Qingqiu's brain cells were unusually active, and she even began to recall the male protagonists she had interacted with.
She remembered their names, their faces, and the things they said.
How could I possibly forget?
She used to think that if she could finish the mission sooner, she might be able to accumulate enough life points to return to her original world.
Later, she often felt that if she really couldn't go back to the original world, it didn't seem to matter. She was willing to be with him for the rest of her life.
Even if these worlds might be fake, Gu Qingqiu feels that he is real, and that's enough.
She would make the most of her time with Troyes, not just to complete the mission.
……etc!
Gu Qingqiu's eyelids trembled violently in an instant. She suddenly thought of a question that she had ignored for a long time.
System 057 is here to replace the male protagonist's system.
This matter seems to be without any problems. Although so much time has passed, Gu Qingqiu still remembers what the male protagonist system said when they first met.
The male protagonist system's full name is "Die If You Don't Get Close to the Male Protagonist System." If she doesn't get close to the male protagonist, she will lose life points during the world's settlement, which may cause her to actually die. It's unknown whether the male protagonist system was just scaring her when they first met.
However, it is clear that each system seems to acquire experience points from the world in different ways. For example, the villainous female supporting character system at the beginning was designed to be an obstacle on the protagonist's path to love. It made Gu Qingqiu do all sorts of evil deeds to drive the development of the world line.
Every system has its own purpose and mission, but System 057... it sounds like just a simple number, and most importantly, it didn't make any mission requests to Gu Qingqiu!
