Miss Player, please don't cast spells on me.

"Finally, you've stopped pretending to be a good boy? That's great... I hope you can play with me for a little longer."

Hera let out a suppressed chuckle, then in the blink of an eye, she bent down and lowered her body, the dagger in her hand instantly transforming into a dense arc of light as it pierced towards Kiyono Gray's heart.

As a game with AINPC interaction as its basic interactive system, the combat system is basically all-encompassing.

Simply put, it means that players can control the game however they want. Qingye Hui has even heard of professional players who can micro-manage down to the smallest finger movement of a character in order to change weapon-related moves during combat.

This level of operation may be even more complex than StarCraft, and is very close to the human hand speed limit when using a keyboard and mouse.

But... no matter how complicated it is, in the end it's still just using a mouse and keyboard.

The moment Hera's dagger pierced towards Shanor, Qingye Hui reached forward and grabbed the forearm of the player character.

This grab was of course no match for the path of the dagger in her hand, and Qingye Hui took the opportunity to press down on her forearm joint.

In the blink of an eye, the force with which the player thrust the dagger was completely dissipated by Qingye Hui's pressure, causing her body to stagger slightly.

Hera seemed to have been prepared as well. With her other hand, she revealed a dagger that she had hidden beforehand, raised it high, and stabbed it straight at Shanor's neck.

But she didn't expect that Kiyono Gray's movements were faster than hers. The moment the dagger stabbed down, Kiyono Gray also raised his hand and used the back of his hand to strike... Hera's wrist holding the dagger.

The move "Clearing the Wild Ash" is traditionally called "Wild Horse Parts Its Mane," and it also carries a bit of force.

This female player's first attempt resulted in her character's hands being swept away by Shanor in a single move, and her weapon being knocked to the ground, leaving her powerless to resist.

But the killing intent emanating from her did not diminish in the slightest, and Kiyono Hai could sense it as well.

Chapter 25: Chasing Them to the Next Film Set

Kiyono showed no mercy, and immediately formed the phoenix eye shape with both hands again, and with several fists overlapping... with a light sound of cutting through the air, he struck the two acupoints on the chest of the person in front of him, Jiuwei and Juque.

The force of those punches caused the player's character to uncontrollably stagger back several steps.

She seemed to want to keep moving her character forward, but soon she saw several debuffs on her status bar.

'Internal bleeding', 'Internal organ damage', 'Rib fracture'.

This caused the player's character to cough up blood incessantly, leaving her without even the strength to move.

But she herself was still there, talking…

"You're even more impressive than I expected. What move did you just use? Chinese martial arts? Xia Nuoer... judging from your expression, you must be the same kind of person as me, right?"

What kind of people?

While Kiyono was watching her movements closely, she chose to slit her own throat with a dagger, a hardcore way to commit suicide.

When Kiyono Gray saw the player standing in front of him again, her face full of excitement... Kiyono Gray felt like his head was about to explode.

"Then let's begin the next round, Shanor-chan!"

Next round my ass! I'm here to have a romance with you, not to have a 1v1 battle with you, you real woman!

After that, Qingye Hui fought a few more rounds with this player named Hera.

Although she used only the most basic game characters throughout, her learning speed was terrifyingly fast.

Consequently, the time she could hold out against Shanor also increased with each save file she reloaded.

From being instantly killed by Qingye Hui in the first encounter, he can now fight Qingye Hui for five or six moves without being at a disadvantage, and even occasionally slashes Xia Nuoer's cheek with a dagger.

It can only be said that when facing a powerful BOSS, memorizing the map... is indeed a magic weapon for players to win.

But Shanor is not a boss that can be defeated by simply memorizing the steps!

Around the twentieth round, Kiyono Hai got impatient and changed his move, switching from the Phoenix Eye Fist to an elbow strike!

The style, which was originally like a sudden downpour, suddenly changed into a devastating, earth-shattering attack.

Before Miss Hera could react, she was defeated by Kiyono Gray in their very first encounter.

"You've changed your tactics again, and it's a style I've never seen before! That's awesome! Shanor-chan... It looks like we can play together for a long time."

This player named Hera has a bit of a masochistic streak in her personality.

The more Kiyono Ash displayed her powerful individual moves and techniques, rather than resorting to boring, cheat-like supernatural powers or magic that bombarded her with useless tricks, the more excited and satisfied she became.

But this was torture for Kiyono Hai.

Firstly, there's no way to earn Faith Power. This performance stage is limited to earning Faith Power only by making players feel romantically attracted.

Secondly, it's exhausting to concentrate on sparring with her; it's even more tiring than trying to please those female players.

So when this player named Hera committed suicide for the 40th time and reloaded her save, Qingye Hui quit the game!

"Xianor-chan, why aren't you moving?"

Just as she excitedly swung the dagger at Xia Nuoer, she found that Xia Nuoer was standing still without any intention of resisting, which made her stop her movements instantly.

"I'm fed up with this boring childish game."

Kiyono Ash brushed her hand away and said.

"Shouldn't you stop already? Don't... ruin your role and your body any longer."

"This is none of your business, is it?" The female player didn't seem to care about any of this.

"Is that so? Then if you really want me to have a serious fight with you, we'll have to wait until the next world."

After leaving the player with a lingering thought, Qingye Hui withdrew his consciousness from Xia Nuoer.

Then, Shanor suddenly collapsed like a puppet with its strings cut.

Hera saw this and rushed over to hug the unconscious Shanor in a panic.

"What do you mean by 'we'll talk about it in the next world'? Hey! Shanor-chan... answer me!"

Unfortunately, no matter how much this player shouted, her Shanor would not respond to her in the game.

.........

Kiyono Ash spent some time in this busy manner.

During this period, due to the extremely low efficiency of Qingyehui in receiving customers, the total Faith Power income was only around 700 points. With the subsequent rewards from Miss Fox, it was barely enough to reach 1,500 points.

Qingye Hui didn't squander the accumulated faith power, because he needed to save it for later performances to upgrade his divine rank.

Today is Sunday, a day off.

After waking up, Qingye Hui did what he always did: the first thing he did was pick up his phone to check the latest messages in the group chat 'Where did Xia Nuoer go?'

The first message in the group almost made Qingyehui lose his composure.

'Do you think Xia Nuoer has been lying to us all along?'

Qingye Hui's first reaction was that the players had finally caught Xia Nuoer cheating!

However, after carefully reading the contents of the group chat, Qingye Hui discovered that the female players were not discussing anything related to Xia Nuoer's infidelity.

But there is another problem that is just as serious as infidelity: Xia Nuoer's public image has collapsed!

The reason why the female players first questioned whether Shanor had been lying to them was a video called "Hunting Record 117".

After clicking on the video, Qingye Hui discovered that it was a record of his recent battle with a player named Hera.

In the video recording, Shanor, whom a large number of female players referred to as "my child," was extremely ruthless and brutal when facing the female player who played Hera.

Originally, starting from the second and third playthroughs, Shanor was a yandere character who would kill the player because she was too fond of the character the player was playing and had an extremely strong possessiveness.

But the Shanor in this video is the Shanor from the first playthrough, and that's the problem!

Even if we take a step back and say that Shanor's combat prowess in the first playthrough was not problematic, it's still quite respectable.

Qingye Hui glanced at the complaints and discussions among the female players in the group and found that what they cared about was... Xia Nuoer's facial expressions were slightly out of control.

Although Shanor is strong in combat during the first playthrough, in their minds she should be someone who is socially anxious, shy, and extremely insecure.

But what about Shanor, the one who clashed with Hera in the video?

Putting aside the ruthlessness of her moves, the later the rounds went, the less noticeable Xia Nuoer's initial character traits of social anxiety and extreme inferiority complex became.

Instead, it reveals a cold indifference, an extreme indifference, as if I have the power of life and death over you!

And after Shanor finally stopped the player's endless pestering, that one sentence...

"I'm fed up with this boring childish game." This line really resonated with the players.

Qingye Hui glanced at the subsequent discussions in the group chat, and saw complaints that Xia Nuoer had lied to them.

What does it look like...?

"Xia Nuoer's smile is so cold, he doesn't look like his original innocent, socially awkward, and cute self at all."

"Where did that shyness go? Was it all an act?"

"But I still think this version of Xia Nuoer appeals to me more! I want him to lock me in the dungeon and continue to...!"

Qingye Hui temporarily ignored the strange letter in the group about Xia Nuoer's madness, and his attention was quickly drawn to a new topic raised by another player.

"Do you think... Shanor had already gone through many cycles before she met us?"

Qingye Hui looked at the female players in the group... and they actually started to seriously discuss this topic.

This made Kiyono Gray feel that it was time for him to present an ending that would make the female players want to chase after Shanor to the next "performance" before this "performance" came to a close.

P.S.: I've thought about it and I'll just update every day at midnight _(:з」∠)_

Chapter 26: The Purest Love Episode (Third Update! Please Read On!)

'Did Shanor lie to us?'

This topic continued to spread among female gamers.

Finally, on the second day, this topic evolved into...

"Do you think Xia Nuo'er is secretly cheating on us?"

Qingye Hui truly admires these female players' ability to fill in the blanks and their research and analysis skills.

In just one day, not only was Xia Nuoer's background revealed, but also the content of the related magic experiments she had participated in, her blood type, zodiac sign, birth date and time, and a whole bunch of other miscellaneous things were dug up.

They even analyzed the details of Shanor, whom they met for the first time in their first playthrough, and whether she was someone who had reincarnated countless times long ago.
