T0 Gaming Guild Saves the World

"Yes, we can also help you guard your house."

"Dragon Knights, come one by one, and we'll take them down!"

Although there are no challenge rewards and they will only be treated like players by Yulu, it is of great significance to them in their preparation for the World Championship.

If Yuu-dō's skills can be twisted, how could players' skills not be twisted?

After seeing Yulu's terrifying skill set, no one thought that any future opponent could be more troublesome than her.

“If she’s willing to play with you guys, then I have no objection,” Jiang Heyi shrugged.

With only one month left, everyone was actively preparing for the World Championship, but the World Championship suddenly fell silent.

There has been no official information released, the venue for the competition is still undecided, and everyone is wondering how long this will remain a secret.

It wouldn't be right to hold a grand qualifier, distribute the rewards, and then suddenly announce that the World Championship is postponed due to force majeure, would it?

Without the virtual-real boundary mini-theater to watch, the enamel mug naturally took notice of the discussions within the player community.

Aside from the battles between the boundary between reality and illusion and the Dragon Knights, discussions about the World Championship have gradually increased.

He asked curiously, "Has the venue for the candlelight event been chosen yet?"

Chen Shaoyu was startled, but responded calmly without changing his expression.

"She didn't discuss this with me."

The enamel mug sighed and didn't press the matter further.

He felt like he had been granted a pardon when he handed over his shift to his colleagues.

Another day has passed without any mishaps or questions. That's great.

As the weather gradually turned colder, Chen Shaoyu, who had gotten up early, huddled in his blankets, feeling a jumble of emotions. He couldn't tell whether he wanted to stay in bed or was simply too anxious and unwilling to face reality.

The candle has been out of service for almost a week.

He exposed those who spread rumors in the public sphere one by one, and provided the evidence to the boundary between truth and falsehood for prosecution, so that they would get their just deserts.

At work, he was conscientious and diligent, maintaining the illusion that the candlelight was still burning brightly for everyone.

In the game, he pretended to be nonchalant with the enamel mug to avoid alerting the big shot to anything amiss.

How long can this role of a mender last?

Washing my face with cold water gradually cleared my dazed mind.

Chen Shaoyu arrived at the company as usual and pushed open the office door that no one but himself would visit.

The candle flame still burns, just as it has for the days and nights since she left.

He covered his face and sat on the sofa, his mind filled with the realization that the candlelight had lost contact and was about to collapse.

A gentle breeze blew by, bringing a touch of coolness to the quiet room. The tranquil atmosphere was enhanced by the soft murmur of flowing water, which gently passed by Chen Shaoyu's ears.

Distracted, he paid no attention until the clicking sound gradually became piercing, like a bearing that was not properly lubricated turning awkwardly.

His head jerked up.

The candle's body, which was performing a self-check by rotating in a fixed rhythm, suddenly deviated from its operating "track".

The head, hands, torso, and thighs all returned to their positions and meshed tightly.

Chen Shaoyu stood up and stared intently at the candle flame, which had reverted to a human form instead of being torn apart by five horses.

Maintaining its stiff posture, the candlelight's lifeless eyes gradually regained their human color.

Like a sky full of stars reflected in it, the starlight is dazzling.

The candlelight raised its hand, touched its face, and patted it gently, as if it were readjusting to its physical senses.

Everything was fine, and her gaze finally fell on Chen Shaoyu.

Seeing Chen Shaoyu's twitching lips and aggrieved expression, she seemed to understand something.

"Sorry... something unexpected happened, I'm late."

After saying that, she covered her forehead with her hand, her expression showing some pain. Her body tilted slightly to the side, and she staggered and fell onto the desk.

She refused Chen Shaoyu's offer of help, waving her hand: "The chaos at the level of consciousness has nothing to do with the body."

Chen Shaoyu didn't press for details; his lack of curiosity was precisely why he was able to stand in this house.

For a full half hour, the room was completely silent.

The candlelight remained tilted on the table, in a somewhat comical and awkward position, and the lifeless eyes regained their sparkle.

"I see. I have a basic understanding of what has happened during this period."

The candlelight smiled and said, "Is this the right way to handle it?"

Chen Shaoyu's heart tightened, and he hurriedly explained.

"I... I got what I deserved, it's a simple value system, anyway..."

He stammered a little and seemed a bit guilty.

With the candlelight broken, the extent of actions to be taken in the future is entirely up to the individual.

"I didn't say you did anything wrong."

"What happens in this world should be resolved by the people of this world."

"The decision was made based on culture and education, and it aligns with the simple values ​​of the general public. I don't think it was wrong."

Chen Shaoyu had a sudden brain fart.

"A flexible moral bottom line?"

He really wanted to slap himself!

What utter nonsense is he spouting?!

The candlelight was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, a slight curve appearing at the corner of its mouth.

“Interesting… In my memory, the greatest Lord whom my master served also gave me this warning.”

"When faced with different living beings and different civilizations, we should readjust our own thoughts and morals."

"To claim to be a higher level of civilization, yet trample on creatures living in different environments, deny their heritage and values, and impose one’s own civilization on them, is nothing but a manifestation of barbarity."

"So you're right, I do have a flexible moral bottom line."

Chen Shaoyu sighed.

No wonder they acted this way after the candlelight was lit.

As dolls, those who created them had listened to a gentle voice from childhood, and they infused that thought into the dolls' bodies.

Compared to the dangerous and terrifying third kind of contact, the supreme dominance of candlelight seems exceptionally warm.

Is there anything to eat?

Chen Shaoyu was stunned for two or three seconds. This seemed to be the first time that Zhu Huo had taken the initiative to ask for food.

Meeting her gaze, Chen Shaoyu quickly nodded: "What do you want to eat?"

"Anything is fine, as long as it fills me up...sweet is fine."

Chen Shaoyu hurriedly pushed open the door and went out. Delivery was too slow, so he decided to go himself.

The office fell silent again. Candlelight covered his head and slowly sat back down in his seat.

The information accumulating in her mind was still being processed rapidly, but this was not the source of her distress.

Gazing at its own reflection in the mirror, the candlelight revealed a sorrowful expression.

"Zi~~~"

"Zi~~~"

The candlelight flickered, its dark red glow swaying like a candle flame blown by the wind.

If you were to gaze intently into the candlelight at this moment, those eyes, as bright as stars, would be covered with countless mosaic-like patches of color.

The dark gray blocks are being rapidly filled with scarlet.

With red eyes, she slowly stood up, walked to the mirror, and silently examined her smart black suit and white shirt outfit.

A disdainful smile played on his lips, and his eyes were filled with disgust.

A candle flame lightly touched his brow, and a ray of light rippled across his entire body.

The colors shifted, and suddenly the black and white dress of the female supporting character from the comic book that hadn't been finished being read appeared on the table.

Immersed in this new self, I hear footsteps approaching from afar.

She raised an eyebrow, her face expressionless, and reached out her hand toward the door, a strange power surging within it.

Suddenly, as if remembering something, she quickly withdrew her power.

"Come on, I bought a lot. What would you like to eat?"

"I also bought a jar of the sweet vinegar that you liked last time, so I can use it myself."

With the candlelight returning, the pressure that had been weighing on his shoulders vanished, and Chen Shaoyu felt light and cheerful, his words brimming with joy.

He placed the bags on the desk, and before the candlelight could respond, he looked up and met her gaze.

It's a very strange feeling...

Having spent so much time with the candlelight, he had never felt anything like it from the other person... Was this... a chill?

As if being stared at by a cold, wild beast, Chen Shaoyu couldn't help but shiver.

"Candlelight, aren't you hungry?"

Suddenly, the candlelight covered its forehead and shook its head.

The eerie chill surrounding Chen Shaoyu vanished completely.

"Candlelight?" he called out tentatively again.

Candlelight seemed to finally come to its senses. Seeing the breakfast spread across the table, it smiled and said thank you. Then, it skillfully picked up the sweet vinegar, dipped the steamed buns in it, and ate them one by one.

It seems to really like dipping things in vinegar; it must be a candle flame.

Chapter 284 I'll be at your doorstep soon!

"The servers will be down for maintenance for a day. You can come up with a reason." Candlelight kept talking. "I need to check the game data generated during my absence again."

Chen Shaoyu took a sip of wonton soup and nodded.

This matter is most likely related to the game accident that Candlelight dealt with in another world, and it is probably the main reason why she has not returned for so long.

"During my absence, have they remained quiet?"

Chen Shaoyu immediately replied: "Aside from some people being a little anxious because you canceled the World Championship, no one realized that you haven't been here for a while."

“The World Championship…” Candlelight said with regret, “I also canceled the other three World Championships.”

Chen Shaoyu's hand trembled, and the wonton fell into the bowl.

"very curious?"

"Yes, a little." He nodded honestly.

"Yes, from the very beginning, my understanding of the World Championship was different from yours."

The candlelight paused for a moment, then continued, "Isn't it also a kind of world competition when other worlds play together with you?"

Chen Shaoyu swallowed.

After taking over the power of the candle flame, he browsed some information within his permissions in the game and had some vague guesses.

Hearing the candlelight confess at that moment sent chills down my spine.

Players from four different worlds compete on the same stage.

How can this be done?

The extra players will inevitably arouse suspicion among spectators.

On second thought, this is actually the least important issue; what's more impressive is that it allows players from four different worlds to stand on the same stage.

Perhaps because she was jealous of something she liked, Candlelight was in a good mood.
