My obsession with role-playing seems to have distorted the world's aesthetic.

"Since you put it that way, then I'll speed things up!"

After Ji Lin finished speaking, his speed increased even more. Bronya, whose rationality had been reduced to 80%, looked at the rapidly receding scenery around her and said with a flushed face:

"This feels so good, faster, faster!"

Racing is a really fun thing to do.

"Huff, hurry, I can't go any faster, I'm already at my fastest speed."

Ji Lin, who had been tense, took a couple of breaths and said, "I can't believe what I'm saying." Bronya's tone was somewhat displeased upon hearing her words:

"That's not enough? Hmph, now it's Bronya's turn. You just sit there, Bronya will do the work herself..."

Before Bronya could finish her sentence, a flying boulder interrupted her.

Seeing Bronya's unrestrained smile, she chose to crash directly into her.

"Ah, don't hit it! I'll die! I'll definitely die!"

Ji Lin sounded a little flustered, while Bronya responded with a smile:

"Don't worry, Bronya knows what she's doing. She knows your limits today, so just enjoy yourself."

Bronya was quite confident in her horsemanship, having already witnessed the extent of Ji Lin's abilities.

Next, Ji Lin will be able to refresh the speed limit of the warhorse he summons.

"I want to... um, I'm going!"

Ji Lin, who was about to say that he was going out, was unable to utter the word due to a gust of wind at the edge of the black hole's influence range.

???

At St. Freya Academy, Bronya suffered cardiac arrest.

What utterly despicable words! My future self is utterly shameless, committing such an act in broad daylight, under the watchful eyes of the entire world.

Could it be that another version of myself is planning to engage in some kind of humiliating play?

"Bronya, run! I can't stop Seele's scythe any longer!"

Kiana's voice rang out; she was the one you could rely on in this crucial moment.

Chapter 161: I Understand Again

Bronya glanced at Kiana, who was clinging to Seele like an octopus, gripping the scythe handle tightly, and felt as if she were walking down a road to hell.

Seele's eyes were now glowing red, clearly indicating that Black Seele was taking over her body.

"I'm going to kill you, you scumbag, for Seele's sake!"

Hei hope spoke with a face full of resentment, while Xi'er herself was speechless. Of course, Xi'er knew Hei Xi well.

After all, they had spent so much time together in the same body, and she was already very familiar with Hei hope's personality.

"Isn't Bronya innocent?"

Seele shared her guess, and upon hearing it, Black Seele replied:

"Of course not, my adorable Seele, you're just one of the people your sister Bronya admires."

Hei hope immediately guessed what Xi Er was thinking when she heard hope Er's words. hope Er thought she had seen through her, but little did she know that she was thinking on a higher level than Xi Er.

He had anticipated that Seele would see through him, and his previous attitude was just to comfort Seele and prevent her from being too sad.

What Hei hope wanted to see, what brought her pleasure, did not come from hope Er.

The scene she wanted to see this time came from Bronya. Seele saw through the truth, but her sister Bronya hadn't.

"Bronya, run!"

Kiana reminded her again, at which point Theresa suddenly realized and said:

"Judas' oath, activate escape mode, and get Bronya to a safe place."

After Theresa finished speaking, Judah was freed, and his chains bound Bronya's legs.

"Finding a safe address, address locked!"

Judah took Bronya and flew up, their destination being the reception room where Walter Yang and the others had been talking earlier.

"That's... the oath of Judah and Bronya?"

Walter Young looked puzzled as he saw Judah flying overhead.

Judah is Theresa's most proficient weapon, and Bronya is currently riding on Judah, flying towards the conference room where she was just now.

"I see, I understand now!"

Walter Young quickly came up with an explanation: "The oath of Judah can be seen as Theresa's token, and Bronya, who is sitting on it, is the next leader of Anti-Entropy."

Theresa's keepsake, Judas, carried Bronya to the reception room, signifying that Theresa, the leader of the St. Freya organization, was prepared to meet her there!

After a moment's thought, Walter Young went to the conference room without saying a word.

While St. Freya was chasing Bronya, Ji Lin and the future Bronya had already broken out of the illusion in Yae Village.

"Raiden Mei, I'm back from the black hole!"

"Ducklings, take off!"

Bronya lay on top of Ji Lin and gripped the reins tightly. This ambiguous position actually had no effect on Ji Lin. Ji Lin looked at Raiden Mei and began to think about how to catch up.

"I didn't expect you to actually break free, but... it's too late."

Raiden Mei smiled slightly, and right now, she had already picked up the napkin of victory!

Just as Bronya was about to make her move, Raiden Mei took a step forward and suddenly fell to the ground.

The surrounding space instantly collapsed and disintegrated, and all things in heaven and earth turned into separate fragments.

"The exciting second match has ended, and the winner is the Queen of the Dark Cuisine World, Raiden Mei!"

Zhen Gongping said excitedly, while Xia Qing in the bubble space looked completely bewildered.

This is not what I imagined. I had planned everything, but I never expected to fall like this.

My original plan was for the Dream team to win, but I didn't expect that I would accidentally make the World Serpent team the winner.

In this final match where all the participants were themselves and the system, the plan still had a flaw.

Does she even have the ability to fall flat on her face? Raiden Mei's luck is just too good; she won by such good fortune.

While Xia Qing was still bewildered, Kiana from St. Freya Academy excitedly said:

"Hehe, just as this genius physicist predicted, Mei is the best, and she is indeed the victor!"

Raiden Mei was also somewhat surprised by what she saw on the screen. She hadn't expected that she would actually win.

Theresa asked curiously, "Kiana-chan, how did you guess that Mei would win?"

"Of course, it's thanks to my wisdom as a genius physicist."

Kiana spoke confidently, while Himeko's expression was somewhat subtle:

"I see. Well then, genius physicist, don't disappoint me in the next physics exam!"

Upon hearing Himeko's words, Kiana's smile gradually faded.

Please, my other self, if it were me, I could definitely get a perfect score!

As Kiana thought this to herself, Sirin, who was silently watching, was speechless. If I were a genius physicist, would I have been beaten so badly in Siberia back then?

"That concludes today's competition. Since we couldn't gather enough participants, the remaining two groups will receive a bye and proceed directly to the next round."

Wait a minute, two groups?

Zhenping's voice sounded again on the screen, this time with a hint of surprise in her tone.

"Ahem, sorry, sorry, I lost my composure just now."

Since this Holy Grail War uses a points system rather than an elimination system, we will distribute points according to the ranking order.

As for the two groups that received a bye, we will award them the points corresponding to the second-place finisher in each match.

As Zhen Pinggong finished speaking, his figure disappeared from the screen. Xia Qing, who had had bad luck today, used a mental link to send her soul to the position of the last contestant, Lv Tuo.

"Hmph, so these are the powerful beings from parallel universes? Seeing them, the hidden power within my bloodline as the Savior of Light is boiling."

Xia Qing, who had just arrived, suddenly heard the voice of a young girl. She looked around and saw that the surrounding environment was completely dark.

The purple-haired girl that Xia Qing had previously pulled from a parallel universe snapped her fingers, and flames ignited in the pitch-black environment.

"The Dark Emperor Raiden Mei is indeed extraordinary. Even if the leader of Anti-Entropy and the ancient heroes joined forces, would the final outcome still be failure?"

A voice sounded behind Xia Qing. He turned around and saw Green Tuo, who was in beast form with his back to him.

Dark Emperor... To be honest, it seems that removing a few words from the title would dramatically increase Mei's prestige.

"Even so, before my Penglai Temple Nine Heavens, darkness will surely be dispelled by my light!"

???

After listening to the conversation between the human and the beast for a while, Xia Qing confirmed one thing: Green Tor seemed to have been led astray by Penglai Temple's Nine Heavens.

He truly deserves the title of Savior of Light...

"Cough cough."

Xia Qing coughed twice, interrupting the chuunibyou (delusional) conversation between the person and the Honkai Beast in the darkness.

Chapter 162: According to the records in this book...

"Who?"

"I ask cautiously," Jiu Xiao asked. The next second, Xia Qing appeared before Jiu Xiao as a keeper of secrets, with a veil of shimmering light on her face and a book in her hand.

For some unknown reason, after absorbing the power of the ancient immortals through the role-playing method, Xia Qing found himself becoming more and more like a human form of Yog.

Under the veil of dim light, Xia Qing's delicate features were faintly visible, but in the darkness, no one appreciated them. Xia Qing began to think about what to say next.

"Nice to meet you, the chosen savior of light."

Xia Qing, without a shred of guilt, began to fool the chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) girl. Upon hearing his words, Jiu Xiao instantly perked up.
