Simultaneous travel: invincible from the beginning of the anime!

Chapter 651 A villainous role played to his true colors!
Natsume Megumi's decision to take the baby hostage was actually thanks to Seiya's advice before the match.

Seiya has been looking into the game "Galaxy Heroes" these past few days.

Although the game's characters are divided into two factions, "heroes" and "villains," from a game mechanics perspective, "villains" actually have an advantage over "heroes."

"Villains" can gain villainous energy by causing destruction or disturbance in the chaotic city.

In other words, the entire chaotic city can become a way for villains to gain energy.

Conversely, it is much more difficult for "hero" characters to obtain energy bars.

You either need to rescue someone, or you need to find and defeat some villainous NPCs in the game.

If the villain takes hostages, the hero will be hesitant to act.

Because failing to help someone in distress will also boost the villain's character's energy bar.

Despite its seemingly unbalanced mechanics, the game's designers actually took players' human nature into account.

Virtual reality games, due to their extremely high level of realism, can create a strong sense of immersion for players.

If you can be a hero in a game, who would choose to be a villain?
While doing bad things can quickly accumulate energy, as a person with normal values, would you really raise a knife against a crying baby in the game?
Many people might say that it's just a game, and those people are just NPCs in the game.

As mentioned before, virtual reality games have a strong sense of realism. Faced with NPCs who can communicate with you normally, how many players can really bring themselves to slaughter them?
The perfect "role-playing" is one of the characteristics of this game.

Since you've chosen the villain role, you should act like one. The closer your actions are to the game character's, the faster you'll gain energy.

The "Netherworld Tree Woman" is a human who was modified by a mad doctor from childhood, so she harbors great resentment towards children who grow up normally and doctors.

Now that Natsume Megumi has perfectly "role-playing," her energy bar is naturally rising at a rapid pace.

Meanwhile, Lucas's chosen hero character was constantly hampered because he couldn't stand by and watch the babies die, ultimately allowing Natsume Megumi to win the first match.

With the professional game commentary on the field, the audience was able to understand Natsume Megumi's terrible behavior.

But while it's understandable, because people tend to idolize heroes and justice, there were far more people cheering for Lucas than for Natsume Megumi on the field.

At the start of the second game, Natsume Megumi originally wanted to use the same trick again, but she encountered Lucas lying in ambush first.

The character "Nether Tree Maiden" is characterized by her slow movement speed and her trap-type villainous nature. Before accumulating enough energy, she has no advantages other than having a high health bar.

The "Dr. Sandon" chosen by Lucas, however, possesses the superpower to enhance himself using a mobile terminal, making him extremely strong in close combat.

Despite being technically inferior to her opponent, Natsume Megumi ultimately lost the second game.

Lucas had already seen through her battle plan, and she was no match for him in a direct confrontation. So, in the third round, Natsume Megumi wanted to find a different way to win.

In the game "Galaxy Heroes", besides defeating the opponent to win, there is another way to win.

That is, you can win the game by finding the "Chaos Cube" hidden in some corner of the chaotic city, and you can also win the game if your energy bar is full.

Unfortunately, despite Natsume Megumi's ability to find the "Chaos Cube" thanks to the Parasitic Seed, he was defeated by Lucas before he could obtain it.

"I'm sorry, my skills are still too weak. I lost the first match, which was crucial."

"If it were Hui, she should have won easily..." "Don't worry too much, Hui, you played very well. If it weren't for bad luck at the end, you would have won if you had taken the Cosmic Cube."

"Awooo—!"

While Panshirgon was comforting Natsume Megumi who had lost, Sun Raku on the other side noticed something like a button on Seiya's mascot costume, so he pressed it out of curiosity.

Then, very quickly, a very childlike and cute lion's roar came from Seiya's headgear.

"Damn it, Sun Le, what are you doing?!"

Seiya had already felt incredibly embarrassed when he saw Suguha and Asuna in the stands, but now that Sun had done this, he felt even more ashamed.

So when he saw that Sun's pumpkin headgear also had a similar blessing, Seiya pressed it down as well.

The next second, the pumpkin head on Sun Le's head lit up with special lighting effects, making him look even more hilarious and comical.

"Pfft—!"

Seeing Seiya and Sun playing pranks on each other, Natsume Megumi, who was initially feeling a bit down, couldn't help but laugh.

After giving the two a sharp rap on the head, Panhirgon continued to comfort them, saying, "I told you long ago not to blame yourself too much. Look at these two, they don't care at all."

"And we're very strong. We'll help you and Skipjack 'n Goukai' win this match, and we won't let your team disband!"

The competition is a ring match, so Lucas, who defeated Natsume Megumi, can continue to defend his title.

Upon seeing Panshirgon, who was dressed in a cosplay outfit that covered most of her face but still had a curvaceous figure, Lucas licked his lips and said, "I didn't expect that the members of your 'Dynamite Squad' would all be beauties."

Hey girl, how about grabbing a drink with me after the competition?

Hearing Lucas's extremely flippant words, Panhirgon also raised the corners of his mouth and said, "Okay, but the premise was that you could beat me."

And that man with the lion doll over there, that's actually my husband. He doesn't like me getting too close to scumbags.

Sun Le is a reckless brute, Katsuyu is a strategist, and Panshirgon is the so-called cunning strategist.

Before the match, Panhirgun had collected information on the members of the StarRain team.

Therefore, she knew that the Lucas in front of her was a complete scumbag and playboy.

It is said that even the paparazzi who follow him, if they are women, he does not spare them.

Facing such scum, Panshirgun had no intention of holding back. Forget about "friendship first, competition second"—Panshirgun was going to completely crush her opponent psychologically!

"Is Panhirgon okay? Although Lucas is a scumbag, his skills are not bad, and he is also good at using strategies. He is the same type of player as Hui."

Hearing Natsume Megumi's anxious question, Sun Raku smirked and said, "Scumbag? Then this guy is in trouble."

Just you wait and see. Compared to your burdensome "role-playing," Panshirgun's performance as a villain is absolutely natural!
You're right, aren't you, Saint?"
