Qi Xu fell silent, recalling how both the killer and the bad ball had mentioned the round in which they suffered the most gruesome defeat.
Ingrid saw that Invincible Black Whirlwind hadn't replied for a long time, and finally sighed, "I'm sorry, although I don't know what I did to you."
Ingrid knows herself too well. If there's no real relationship between them, she'll prioritize her own interests. So, it's quite possible that she'd try to ambush Invincible Black Whirlwind for a certain item or opportunity.
Qi Xu snapped out of his deep thoughts and saw Ingrid's new message, and smiled.
Invincible Black Whirlwind: "So, will you treat me the same way in this round of the game?"
Ingrid: "Of course not!"
Invincible Black Whirlwind: "But I'm still a little hurt, and I'm very sad. I've already considered you a very important friend in my life..."
Ingrid: "I'm sorry..."
Invincible Black Whirlwind: "I don't care about what happened in the game before. From now on, will you always protect me? After all, you are so powerful. If there are cross-server operations again, I will feel very safe with you by my side."
There's nothing shameful about feigning weakness, as long as you are inherently strong and you unite all forces.
Ingrid instantly perked up and sent the message without thinking, adding "OK" and countless exclamation marks.
To be honest, she didn't want to lose Invincible Black Whirlwind as a friend even more. She wasn't sure if they were friends before, but now she was.
I often recall the scene in the Treasure Map Secret Realm where Invincible Black Whirlwind, despite being severely injured, rushed over to lure away the Black Frost Python on his own.
So he was incredibly conflicted and reluctant to part ways, but fortunately, Invincible Black Whirlwind also cherished this friendship!
Invincible Black Whirlwind: "Come to the World Arena, Song Peifeng is waiting for you. Click to enter in 10 seconds. If the match fails, enter at the top of the next hour."
Ingrid is no longer in a bad mood; Invincible Black Whirlwind understands me so well! Protecting someone is nothing difficult.
Qi Xu could roughly guess that when he was extremely strong, his way of dealing with people and his personality must have been completely different from how he is now.
Otherwise, the killer wouldn't have kept showing that "I've seen a ghost" expression and be so sure that Ingrid would definitely turn against him.
Actually, it's easy to understand if you think about it. This version of yourself still has the memories of the previous version. In the previous version, "Qi Xu" was a typical unlucky nobody.
To survive in the cracks, nothing is more important than living. Dignity, face, and everything else can be given up in order to survive.
So at the very beginning of this round of the game, luck took an amazing turn, and he adapted his personality very well, finding a way to survive that was more suitable for him.
For example, cultivate good relationships with monsters, be keen on increasing their favorability, scatter gold coins in large quantities, try to befriend everyone or any faction around you, and nip any danger in the bud, killing whenever possible without hesitation.
It is because he knows all too well the taste of "weakness" and understands the true meaning of survival for people at the bottom that he will do everything he can to seize every opportunity this time, when he has good luck and power, and he will never allow himself to repeat the same mistakes.
