Am I going to be controlled by the players too?

Saintess Serafina raised her hand, drawing a circle in the air with her fingertips. Then, as if reversed, the meteorite shot upwards, carrying waves of heat as it hurtled towards the heavens!

Serafina directly reversed the timeline of the meteorite!

The crack in the sky closed, the dark clouds dispersed, and the sunlight shone down again.

The messenger of natural disasters paled for a moment.

But he didn't stop. He waved his hands repeatedly, and a storm surged from his palms, transforming into a gray dragon with its mouth open, rushing towards Cheng Cheng.

"A mage dares to duel a swordsman at this distance?"

Sylvia is now level 43 with a terrifying combat power of 9000. Her physical strength alone is enough to tear houses apart with her bare hands, and a mere storm is nothing to her!

Instead of retreating, Cheng Cheng advanced, cleaving the wind dragon in two with his sword, and then charged toward the messenger of natural disaster like lightning!

The messenger's pupils contracted slightly.

He bit his tongue, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, and then pressed his hands down sharply—

Thunderstorm!

Countless bolts of purple lightning struck down from the sky at a speed that no one could react to!

However, this attack just missed Cheng Cheng!

The dense currents of electricity surged wildly within the hall, only to be repelled as they approached the saintess and the others, before finally all rushing towards the messenger of calamity himself!

Wonder of U, miracles with you!

The embers of fire extracted from the cursed crow have now been put to use by Cheng Cheng!

With lightning speed, reaching 30 kilometers per second, even the messenger of natural disasters didn't have time to react before being hit instantly and blasted to a crisp!

"Fire!"

The messenger of natural disaster, dazed by the electric shock, couldn't recall the miracle or that you had fallen into enemy hands. He even tried to fight back, but a fire dragon appeared out of nowhere, threatening to engulf everyone and simultaneously giving him a chance to escape.

"boom."

His response was a bullet.

Then came a metal storm of bullets!

Cheng Cheng extended his five fingers, each finger like a rotating machine gun, unleashing hundreds of bullets per second, piercing through the flames and heading straight for the messenger of natural disaster!

He hurriedly raised his Holy Domain to defend himself, but at the same time he made this move, Cheng Cheng had already cleaved the fire dragon in two, the sword covered in black flames, and struck his throat directly!

The messenger of natural disaster gritted his teeth, stopped retreating, clenched his fists, and struck Cheng Cheng with all his might!

With her peak Gold level strength, coupled with her body that had been tempered by magic for decades, and the powerful Holy Domain supported by magic, a mere early Gold level girl simply couldn't break through her defenses!

"clang--"

The sword and fist collided like metal clashing, creating a deafening sound.

The messenger's fist was instantly cleaved in two!

The messenger of natural disaster staggered backward, his eyes wide as he stared at his fists, now split in two: "Impossible... how could you break through my defenses..."

Cheng Cheng sneered.

With the Pride card's blessing, as long as you believe you are stronger than your opponent, the effects of any of your attacks and skills will be doubled, and the more you despise your opponent, the stronger the effect!

This card is perfect for him—as a gamer, everyone else is just an NPC, a monster, or a game character, and Cheng Cheng is psychologically born to consider himself superior to everyone else!

With every strike landing a critical hit, how could there be a lack of damage output?

The messenger of natural disaster still wanted to evade, but he had already entered Cheng Cheng's kill line.

"Zheng—"

A flash of sword light, and the head of the Calamity Messenger rolled to the ground, bounced twice, and came to rest in a pool of blood.

Three seconds later, the standing body finally collapsed.

"Defeat the 'Calamity Messenger', experience +9000"

Hidden Quest "Cultivator of Genshin Impact" Progress: 2/3

"Gain Fire Seeds: Storm, Lightning, Fire"

Cheng Cheng shook the blood off his sword, then dug three fire seeds from the corpse of the Calamity Messenger, and Felix immediately stepped forward to appraise them:

"Storm, lightning, fire... these three are all superior fire seeds! We're rich now!"

Three superior flames!

Cheng Cheng couldn't help but gasp for air in his mouth.

Including the three obtained from the crow, the amount of fire seeds obtained in this purge of the Primal God Cult is comparable to all the previous ones!

No wonder they say murder and arson bring wealth and honor. It's truly one of the underlying logics of online novels—the bittersweet reward of defeating demons is nothing compared to the sweet reward of murder and plunder.

However, since this was all thanks to the help of the two legends, the spoils of war could not be kept all by oneself.

Cheng Cheng gestured for the two legends to choose first. The Holy Maiden stepped forward and took Storm, while Felix chuckled and chose Fire, leaving the most useful Lightning for Cheng Cheng.

Cheng Cheng put away the lightning sparks, thought for a moment, and then handed the three sparks he had taken from the crow—misfortune, calamity, and malice—to Li Xianyu:

"These are for you."

Li Xianyu took the fire, her eyes widening: "This...this is..."

“It can be used to create the ultimate move ‘Miracle with You’,” Cheng Cheng said. “However, I don’t really need a move that makes me immune to damage, so you can keep it.”

After all, whether Freya or Sylvia is killed, the game will be rolled back immediately.

But if Li Xianyu dies, he will definitely have to find a way to go back in time to save her—however, Cheng Cheng now can no longer bring himself to commit suicide against either Sylvia or Freya.

It's perfect for saving Li Xianyu's life.

Li Xianyu held the three embers, took a deep breath, tucked them into his robes, and then—

She pounced on him, wrapped her arms around Cheng Cheng's neck, and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek!

"Thank you, boss! You're so generous! It's so wonderful to work for you..."

She was crying and jumping around to express her gratitude when she suddenly felt a chill on her back.

Turning his head, he saw Freya standing three steps away, staring intently at him.

amount……

They're both girls, why are they angry about a kiss?

Oh, maybe it feels like it's been forgotten?

Li Xianyu thought for a moment, then leaned over, hugged Freya, and gave her a kiss: "I'm super happy working under the princess!"

Freya struggled for a moment but couldn't break free, and looked at Cheng Cheng with a sullen face.

"Cough cough."

The saintess walked over and looked at Cheng Cheng: "Although one branch of the Primordial God Cult has been dealt with, there is still a Golden 'Vicious Rose' carrying out a mission in the dungeon... Although the kingdom has been notified, I have a feeling... if you go to stop him, you will gain a lot of benefits."

Cheng Cheng asked, "Isn't the Holy Maiden going?"

The saintess shook her head: "Because of my special authority, I am unwilling to go to places like the dungeon, which are so close to the abyss. Otherwise, I would see things I shouldn't see."

As she spoke, she stretched out her hand, and in her palm lay a jade stone shaped like an ouroboros, its body coiled into a circle, its mouth biting its tail.

"This is for you."

Cheng Cheng took the jade, which was warm and moist... The saintess's skirt clearly had no pockets, and he didn't know where she had taken it from.

"When you encounter danger, this jade will take you back in time to a certain space."

Cheng Cheng carefully put the jade away and turned to Felix: "Lord Felix, shall we go together?"

Felix shook his head firmly: "Impossible, meow! The dungeon is so annoying, I absolutely refuse to do anything that might be dangerous, meow! Besides, I'm busy taking over the Genshin Impact's assets and money, meow."

Cheng Cheng frowned slightly.

I strongly suspect that what "Vicious Rose" is up to is likely related to my own mission—after all, the timing and location are exactly the same, and it avoids the possibility of the two legends acting together. It feels like the system is pulling the strings.

Then we have no choice but to give up.

That night.

Cheng Cheng, Freya, Li Xianyu, and Paul, the four Gold Saints, entered the underground city.

Familiar with the route, they passed through layer after layer of checkpoints and arrived at the eighth floor.

The streets of the boundless city remained empty, and the gray sky remained lifeless, but the chickens, tigers, bears, wolves, and dogs were no longer there.

“The entrance to the ninth floor,” Paul pointed to a small alley ahead, “find a small alley, go in and then turn around.”

They walked into the alley.

Moss grew in the cracks between the bricks on the wall, and the stone slabs underfoot were wet.

Cheng Cheng walked in front, stopping only in the middle of the alley and turning around—

Countless hands reached out from the wall!

Pale, bluish-gray, dry, rotten, densely packed, squeezed out from every crack in the brickwork, grabbed Cheng Cheng's shoulders, and dragged him into the wall!

Cheng Cheng did not struggle, letting those hands pull him into the wall.

Freya and the others followed suit.

The wall rippled like water, then disappeared after a moment, as if nothing had happened.

…………

The underground city, at an unknown level.

This is a cozy little house with pink walls decorated with cartoon-style clouds, stars, and small animals.

This floor, known as "Kitty's House," is a medium-sized house with only three rooms, occupying just over a hundred square meters. There are no dangers or monsters to be seen here, making it the safest floor.

However, for the past century, no human has ever successfully set foot on this place.

At this moment, in the still-lit room, there was a brand-new computer, its huge curved screen casting blue light onto the girl's porcelain-white skin.

The girl's petite body was curled up in the gaming chair.

One snow-white jade foot was crossed in front of her, idly held by its owner. The other jade foot, clad in a fishnet stocking, stretched out and groped for a can of cola on the ground. Then, with a push of her toes, she grabbed the edge of the can and lifted it to her hand.
