Chapter 94 Holographic Online Games Are So Cool (Part 15)
This coffin-like object was entirely black, with a black eye painted on the lid.
The eye's black pupil held an abyss-like depth of darkness, reflecting a familiar outline—the outline of the Demon King's palace.
Is it... that his game character put himself in this "coffin"? This is the most reliable explanation Luo Xinxiu could come up with.
But where did Asi go?
Luo Xinxiu sat up halfway from the "coffin" and found himself in a pure white place, which looked like a research room, with some blades and medicines on the table.
Suddenly, Luo Xinxiu heard a series of hurried footsteps. His heart tightened, and he instinctively lay back down and quickly closed the lid.
This is the most reliable method, since he has no idea where he is or what is happening.
The footsteps stopped an inch away from Luo Xinxiu, and he could hear two people talking in the dark, cramped space.
"Bai Yingbin, who do you think is in this coffin? One of our guild members has already alerted the dark creatures in the Demon King's palace by rescuing her. They're already lurking near the orc capital. If a war breaks out, we, who haven't even developed yet, will definitely suffer more losses than gains!"
Luo Xinxiu was startled.
These two people who suddenly appeared were also players! They said they were taking him back, which means that the body was uncontrolled at the time!
"Given the fact that the dark creature is so attentive, and given that she looks almost exactly like the Demon King, doesn't that just prove that she is a very important person to the Demon King?"
"Her existence might become a trump card to defeat the Demon King ahead of time!" Upon hearing this, Luo Xinxiu felt a sudden ache in his teeth and made a sound involuntarily.
"What was that sound?!"
Damn it! He cursed inwardly. After watching Si Yisi's boldness and recklessness for so long, Luo Xinxiu had a crazy idea.
He lifted the lid and sat up straight!
The moment he opened the lid, Luo Xinxiu saw the two players—two tall, robust male orc players—and he even saw their levels…
Level 8!
Luo Xinxiu's level has soared to around level twelve because Si Yisi took over his body and went on a killing spree.
However, the level difference between lower-level players is not proportional to their strength. Furthermore, Luo Xinxiu currently has no weapons, and if he were to face these two players... and the guilds that might come looking for him at any moment.
Luo Xinxiu felt it was a long shot.
Luo Xinxiu's gaze was clear for only a moment, and then it became empty and dull due to his deliberate disguise, and his body also looked very stiff.
Not breathing, body stiff.
"It's come back to life!"
Bai Yingbin's tense muscles relaxed slightly, and he cursed in Luo Xinxiu's direction.
Another player tentatively touched Luo Xinxiu's body, but he didn't react at all.
"No response." The player glanced at Luo Xinxiu suspiciously.
"Maybe it's because there's a mechanism set up inside the coffin..." Bai Yingbin guessed with a smile, and both players relaxed to varying degrees.
This is the moment!
Luo Xinxiu felt his heart beating faster than ever before. This game was too realistic, especially since he had adjusted the pain level to 80% for a better gaming experience!
A glint of light flashed in his eyes, and then his stiff body suddenly flipped out of the coffin, slapping the lid onto the faces of two players!
Luo Xinxiu's series of actions bought him a relatively sufficient amount of time to escape.
At the same time, a side quest popped up on Luo Xinxiu's panel - [Escape - Your goal is to escape from here and reunite with your companions!]
Reward: 80% of the experience points for this level
Companions? Where did he get any companions? Luo Xinxiu quickly put that aside; his primary objective now was to escape!
He felt his heart pounding wildly. Only after leaving the pure white research room did Luo Xinxiu realize that the place was built underground, while the ground floor housed a guild!
The guild in front of us is already quite large. A guild that can build up to this size so soon after the start of the open beta must be no nobody!
"Thump, thump."
Luo Xinxiu's heart was pounding. The spirit sped away like an arrow he had shot, running as naturally as eating and drinking.
He inexplicably felt a surge of confidence that he could escape!
Luo Xinxiu actually lacked confidence. He passively accepted the malice of others, just like a stack of building blocks or a paper wall, which was easier to destroy.
This escape from pursuit turned out to be a turning point for Luo Xinxiu!
Luo Xinxiu found it extremely exciting. He glanced at the colorful skills being thrown at him out of the corner of his eye, marveling at this novel gaming experience.
Who would have thought that he, a player, would experience the same treatment as a boss in the game?
Whether he could escape or not had become secondary for Luo Xinxiu. He intimately communicated with the howling wind, letting it entwine around him.
Aside from the fact that the long black dress looked a bit chilly underneath, there was nothing wrong with it.
Si Yisi stood by the window, gazing towards the orcish capital. He had, of course, received news of [Broken Brush Painting Ink]'s disappearance, but the reason he remained inactive was because…
He was waiting, he was waiting for Luo Xinxiu to come online!
Luo Xinxiu's personality is not as weak as it seems; on the contrary, he actually possesses a strong sense of courage!
Whenever Si Yisi was in battle, he could feel Luo Xinxiu's heartbeat quicken and his spirit send out a sense of bewildered longing.
He longed to join the fight, but his heart remained confused.
It was around that time that Si Yisi developed an appreciation for Luo Xinxiu, so... given that Luo Xinxiu's body had disappeared, or more likely been stolen...
Si Yisi is still waiting!
When he saw waves of energy emanating from the orcish royal city, Si Yisi chuckled softly.
Luo Xinxiu did it!
Freya came to his side and caught that smile. She glanced in the direction of the orc capital and asked, "Your Majesty, do you intend to attack the orc race directly?"
She became eager to try it.
Si Yisi hesitated, unsure whether Freya and he were "birds of a feather" or "collaborators." But she really suited his taste.
He nodded slightly. "You can send some soldiers to interfere with the actions of the imperial guards, but don't make too much of a fuss. I'm going to pick someone up."
"who?"
“My other half.” Sis looked directly at Freya—the same person you recognized as the king’s past self.
Luo Xinxiu is on the run.
Faced with the encirclement of a group of guild players, he felt he couldn't hold on much longer.
They completely regarded Luo Xinxiu as a boss with a lot of potential profits, and like a pack of wolves, they wanted to swarm him and devour his flesh.
Luo Xinxiu felt very uncomfortable being looked at with that hunter's gaze.
He felt like a large cake that had already been divided up, almost naked and exposed to a frozen wasteland.
At the same time, his heart was racing, his blood was flowing wildly, and Luo Xinxiu's health and HP were slowly decreasing to a dangerous blood red.
He didn't just run away; he learned to fight back!
The blood-soaked elf, pursued by the players, moved with the agility of a swallow through the orcish capital, as if he could sprout wings at any moment—
"How can this boss run so fast!"
"Have we surrounded him, everyone?!"
"Almost there—we've surrounded them!" a player cheered. As soon as he finished speaking, the guild members closed in!
"...Tsk."
Luo Xinxiu staggered and covered his wound. Although he was hissing in pain, his eyes shone with an unprecedented bloodlust.
He straightened his back, no longer hunching over in front of others with a lack of confidence.
Luo Xinxiu even flashed a pleasant smile, without a trace of reluctance. He murmured, "This is wonderful—"
He stood still, opening his arms to face the sudden, biting wind... as if intimately embracing the raging beast.
The players shouted provocatively and swarmed forward, their attacks illuminating the entire sky!
The dazzling attack light momentarily blinded the players, who then became restless, like jackals eager to reap the final spoils.
Si Yisi used a hidden sword to block all of Luo Xinxiu's attacks! He remained seated on a floating black throne throughout, appearing as if...
Cold, dangerous, and unapproachable!
He pulled Luo Xinxiu behind him and said firmly, "You will all pay the price—!"
The next moment... a white light engulfed all the players present!
