Chapter 95 Holographic Online Games Are So Cool (Part Sixteen)
Are you dead?
"I'm dead—! Is everyone in our guild here?! Where are the guild leader and vice-leader?"
"Here... is it."
The players in this guild didn't even have time to make any offensive moves. They only saw a flash of white light in their field of vision, and when they recovered, they were all sent back to the respawn point!
“Let’s look at the damage indicators we’ve received,” one player suggested, then he saw that he had taken tens of thousands of points of damage!
What does this mean? Nowadays, a player's maximum health is only around two or three thousand, and this attack is several times that amount!
With such power from a casual strike, how are they supposed to fight back?
Si Yisi quietly watched as the player's corpse gradually faded and disappeared due to the respawn. Luo Xinxiu watched his figure and tightened his hand covering his wound.
...A sense of peace welled up within me.
He came to help him, Luo Xinxiu thought inexplicably once again.
"How...did you do that?" he asked Si Yisi again. "Can you exist separately from me?"
Si Yisi made a shushing gesture, his smile was rather mysterious, and the demon king's robe he was wearing with platinum threads only added to that feeling.
He knows everything.
“It’s very simple,” Si Yisi said calmly, looking at Luo Xinxiu. “If you’re willing, I can also appear in your players’ real world.”
“This…how is this possible!” Luo Xinxiu retorted instinctively.
Si Yisi's face was partially obscured by the shadow cast by the building, making him appear even more enigmatic.
"Why can't it be done?"
He left behind a meaningful question, then looked directly at his own panel.
At this moment, the area displaying the player's title is now fully lit up!
Si Yisi... can leave the holographic online game world of Xingxing at any time!
Luo Xinxiu trembled subconsciously yet anticipated Si Yisi's words. It was contradictory, but not unpleasant.
Looking at the chaotic orcish capital city, where dark creatures roamed freely, Luo Xinxiu said, "But with what you've done... it's not just the humans who will be affected; the orcs will also be thinking about how to summon heroes to kill you, the demon king."
Si Yisi raised an eyebrow, his gaze fixed on his throne: "We have long been at odds with the world!"
"Isn't that so?"
Si Yisi's voice was not soft, and it couldn't even drown out the sounds of the dark creatures walking and roaring, but at this moment, Luo Xinxiu suddenly could no longer control his desire!
My heart is pounding... I can't stop it.
Si Yisi was like a devil, bewitching Luo Xinxiu and dragging him into that abyss!
Luo Xinxiu, however, only felt that he had come back to life!
He gasped for breath, and it took him a long time to catch his breath. The faint feeling of cowardice finally dissipated completely from Luo Xinxiu's face: "That's it... We are going against the world!"
Two “demon kings” who looked alike stood close together.
One sat on a black throne, cold, refined, and terrifyingly dangerous; the other faced the back of the throne, looking at another "self" in front of him!
Just like Si Yisi said, it's like the half-body!
The forum on the star system was once again out of control and crashed, with some fearless players transferring everything they saw and heard to the forum.
The title of this trending post is—
The Demon King's Half-Body: Against the World!
"Okay, okay, okay..." Yu Yin lingered, furious. "You just decided to challenge [Broken Brush Ink], that elf player, in the individual competition without even conducting any investigation?"
"Do you know what her background was before she started playing Stellar? Do you know her usual tactics and attack methods?"
The lingering sound made my head ache so badly that I logged out of the game for a moment.
"I don't know," said Liejiu Qinghan nonchalantly. "We'll find out about her attack methods once we start fighting. At worst, we can always find game videos of her leveling up by fighting monsters."
"That's the problem!"
The lingering sound rose in volume: "There is absolutely no information whatsoever about how the Broken Brush and Ink Painting technique was upgraded!"
"She's level twelve now, and she hasn't made a sound at such a high level. Doesn't that say something?"
Si Yisi kept his merits and fame hidden.
"Either she had some extraordinary encounter, or she had already accumulated a wealth of game experience before entering the Stellar Game!"
"We can seize this fortuitous encounter, and the experience gained can also be used to our advantage." The strong liquor and cold air waved his hand.
"The elves have an unavoidable weakness: they're fragile! Besides, I have an entire guild supporting me, but does she? So—I'm not afraid of her!"
The lingering sound echoed: "..."
Liejiu Qinghan waved his hand again and said, "If I win her over and she becomes my girlfriend, do you think she'll still have this sour face? Then all her adventures will be mine."
He could fight openly and honestly.
But the strong liquor and the cold always believe that shortcuts are the easiest path. If there's a quick way to go, why bother working as diligently as a laborer?
Luo Xinxiu didn't know why he sneezed.
Freya was scrutinizing Luo Xinxiu, sensing the unique aura of an undead emanating from the half-body the king had mentioned.
Surprisingly... there was no aversion.
"Are you the king's other half?"
“I guess so.” Luo Xinxiu paused for a moment, and subconsciously glanced at Si Yisi.
The relationship between these players and their game accounts is one of mutual dependence, isn't it? He also realized that the two of them not only share the same appearance, but also share a part of the core of the game panel!
In this situation, it is undoubtedly half of the body!
"Alright." Freya nodded slightly, and Si Yisi thought that she would at least show a different attitude towards Luo Xinxiu.
But that's not the case.
Freya's expression softened, but her words and actions still carried a hint of decisiveness. She said to Luo Xinxiu, "As the king's half-body, you are still too weak!"
She frowned as she looked at the blood-soaked Luo Xinxiu: "If you don't improve your strength soon, how can you stand shoulder to shoulder with the king?"
Even though the king's half-body in front of her gave Freya the feeling that the king was right there, she would not blindly give in!
No wonder the king before us is so weak. This is not only referring to his abilities, but also to the personality revealed by Luo Xinxiu's subconscious expressions.
His spirit was weak and vulnerable, more fragile than paper.
Sufficient power requires a sufficiently strong heart.
Luo Xinxiu was struck by Freya's words and remained silent for a long time.
"……I see."
“I am [Broken Brush Painting Ink],” he introduced himself to Freya.
Freya's expression softened slightly: "I am Freya, the king's most loyal servant... Hello, the king's... other half."
Humans, orcs. The enigmatic actions of the dark creatures now seemed to point to one thing—they might be trying to defeat them one by one, destroying all seven races at once!
That's why it's said to be an enemy of the world!
How could this be allowed? The Demon King and his servants were a thorn in the side of the seven races, though some races were still observing.
But the series of "smoke bombs" dropped by the dark creatures had already convinced the NPCs in the star of the Demon King's ambition!
Conquering the seven races—what a display of power! They absolutely cannot allow this situation to escalate any further.
Therefore... the seven major races are now making intensive preparations for their elite main force! They hope to gain the greatest benefit at the lowest cost!
Was Si Yisi completely unaware of this?
Of course not! Since he said he was going against the world, it means he had long anticipated that the seven races were showing signs of uniting.
"As the final boss to be defeated..." Si Yisi smiled, "I've never tried this kind of role before."
"Are you scared?" Si Yisi drew several small green dots on a parchment scroll, and then the ones who were deeply trapped were the small red dot in the center.
Luo Xinxiu sat next to him and received the same treatment. "Probably..." Luo Xinxiu gave an ambiguous answer.
“I’ve accepted your challenge to the upcoming competition against Liejiu Qinghan,” Si Yisi said. “Even though he’ll be facing me, you…”
He stared intently at Luo Xinxiu: "You're going to join the war too."
Luo Xinxiu: "??" Is she going to fight in a little skirt?
In the world of the holographic stellar online game, time moves rapidly forward with the ticking of the clock. Players strive to improve their strength, while the NPCs in the world are working hard to prepare to fight against the Demon King's new forces!
Under such challenging circumstances, a competition to select top domestic players has begun!
Luo Yi'an invited her girlfriends over to play. Before her best friends even arrived, she rushed into Luo Xinxiu's room, flung open the door, and unleashed a long string of words like a cannonball:
"My best friend is coming over to play later, so you just stay quietly in your room and don't come out! Do you hear me?!"
"Um."
Luo Xinxiu hummed in response, and then heard her slam the door shut.
Luo Xinxiu was used to it. He put on the game helmet and entered the Stellar Game. Si Yisi and Liejiu Qinghan had a bet, and as the acknowledged half-body, Luo Xinxiu also needed to undergo some training!
This competition isn't just a simple contest where you can designate a challenger.
Instead, it's a player-versus-player competition, a preliminary round where each region's winner is determined in the end! Liejiu Qinghan accepted the bet because he was confident he could reach the top of his region; this kind of competition…
As long as you hold on until the end, you'll eventually be able to face off against strong liquor and refreshing coldness!
Therefore, the prerequisite is that Si Yisi cannot suffer a single defeat before facing off against the strong liquor and coldness.
Si Yisi entrusted this task to Luo Xinxiu!
This was a difficult test, but Luo Xinxiu could see that Si Yisi trusted him completely. Because of this, Luo Xinxiu felt a fire ignite within him as well.
A fire that refuses to give up!
He cannot lose!
Luo Xinxiu was engrossed in the game, his gaming helmet flashing a ghostly blue light and occasionally emitting crackling electrical sounds.
The selection process... has begun!
Luo Yi'an was annoyed—ever since her best friend came in, she couldn't help but look in the direction of Luo Xinxiu's room. Luo Yi'an hadn't mentioned her brother Luo Xinxiu to her best friend at all; to her, having a disabled brother was a terrible thing!
She was disgusted with her disabled younger brother!
Luo Yi'an was constantly annoyed, as she kept hearing what sounded like sparks coming from Luo Xinxiu's room. After this happened several times, Luo Yi'an was practically on the verge of a nervous breakdown!
Unable to contain her anger any longer, she stormed into Luo Xinxiu's room like a tornado. Luo Yi'an, frustrated and distraught, stared at the closed door and kicked it open!
Luo Yi'an's slam was so heavy and loud that it seemed as if he was going to smash the wooden door down.
Then… she angrily turned the doorknob, the rusty handle groaning loudly. Luo Yi'an burst in!
"Playing games, playing games, playing games! What the hell are you playing?!"
Following his own desires, Luo Yi'an once again tried to pull down Luo Xinxiu's gaming helmet—
Her hands were pushed away by two hands!
Those are the hands of Luo, Xin, and Xiu!
