Oh no, I have become a character in the card pool?

Chapter 17: Long time no see, I'm back after winning the resurrection match
"Take your hands off me, now."

The soft and tender girl's voice sounded calmly.

The white-haired girl in a hooded cloak picked up the cold gray assault rifle and placed the butt against her shoulder. Her scarlet eyes made a straight line between the crosshairs and the muzzle.

The fingertips lightly press on the trigger.

The brilliant blue light of the ether emerged faintly, interweaving into overlapping geometric shapes at the muzzle of the gun.

And the muzzle——

He fearlessly aimed at the fox-eared girl, whose presence far outweighed that of the entire battlefield and whose presence was almost condensed into the physical embodiment of "fear".

She repeated calmly, "Take your hands off me, or I'm going to shoot you."

"Wait, Shimi..." In the crowd, old lady Carolina shouted in a worried look, trying to stop the girl's behavior.

In fact.

Anyone could see that the assault rifle made with modern human technology could not pose any threat to the fox-eared girl.

That's a legendary spirit.

Although no one present knew her identity, let alone the deeds she had accomplished.

However, in the [Demon's Netherworld], the black fog that can cause erosion and collapse that is enough to cause the fall of an area has to retreat.

In any case, it is no longer something that can be fought with human will or courage.

That is a colorless and invisible aura.

The power emitted by this entity is different from any other power that everyone has seen in the [Demon's Netherworld] in the past.

It is like a clear mirror, a crystal, or the all-encompassing “nothingness”.

The invisible evil spirit, even the black fog caused by "erosion and collapse" in the sky, had to surrender timidly and retreat humiliatingly from the territory that Xingjian Jingli had already sworn ownership of.

And the opposite.

The assault rifle in Xia Shimi's hand.

Designed by modern human civilization, the parts are manufactured in factories under the alliance, and then assembled on the assembly line to form standard firearms distributed to the Spirit Envoys.

"Compound Ether Enchanted Assault Rifle - Silver Sky III"

If you want to use this kind of weapon, even if you attach the etheric technique with maximum output, it is impossible to penetrate the shallowest layer of defense on the fox-eared girl's body.

The difference in strength between the two is a conclusion that anyone can easily draw.

But even so.

Xia Shimi pointed the gun at the fox-eared girl without hesitation.

Saito Riku frowned even more, propped up his old body and wanted to rush forward and pull the girl back.

However, the evil spirit that rose into the sky was like a hurricane, and everyone present was unable to move.

Even the thought of speaking felt like a heavy weight.

This is a bit strange. The pressure of this demonic energy is so great, how can the white-haired girl perform a standard and perfect shooting posture smoothly?
——Perhaps she herself did not realize this, and the only thing reflected in her pupils was the young man whose clothes were tightly grasped and whose life was threatened.

"."

Perhaps it was some surprise, or perhaps it was out of instinct that he noticed this weak girl, and his scarlet eyes really showed the intention to pull the trigger.

Xing Jian Jingli glanced slightly in her direction.

It was obviously a gun that could not cause any harm, but it seemed that the white-haired girl's behavior had triggered some of her long-lost memories.

After glancing at Xia Shimi out of the corner of his eye.

She said calmly: "Are you the soul-contracting spirit this guy is looking for now?"

"Heh, if he really stole the body, then I can only say that your acting is pretty good."

Xing Jian Jingli turned her gaze to Lin Xuan again. For some reason, she tightened her grip on someone's collar a little more.

He said in a calm tone: "With just a few words, have you easily deceived the sincerity of a contract spirit again?"

"Even in the face of such a huge gap in strength, you still resolutely chose to be hostile to me and were willing to sacrifice your life for you."

"Is this an instinct engraved in your body? Or is this the intention of you as a pretender? Do you want to find all those people back?"

From the discourse.

It seemed that she was not surprised by this matter, but rather that she had already gotten used to it.

Xingjian Jingli narrowed her eyes, her chest rising and falling slightly with her breathing. Because of the white-haired girl's resolute attitude, the demonic aura emanating from her almost doubled.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion.

All the onlookers present could hear from Xingjian Jingli's cold words that her anger was being ignited.

Everyone's eyes changed from cautious and vigilant to a tense atmosphere due to these words.

Wait, what's this conversation about?

Why does it feel like the man in the house sneaks out to find a thieving cat, and the woman who is left at home is so angry that she goes to the man's house to confront him face to face?
these two people
Could it be that we actually knew each other in the past?

After all, not long ago, someone stated with certainty that the ownerless fox-eared spirit was a friendly unit, but seemed to have some unspeakable reasons for it.

And now.

The person involved came directly to the door and pinned the person against the wall for a long time without taking any direct action. Instead, he looked like he was going to call for an explanation.

In this situation, it is really hard not to have some unnecessary associations.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Lin Xuan had already prepared his lines, but after being crossed out in such a strange way, he lost all his emotions and was even choked on his saliva.

He felt the strange gazes of the crowd again and realized that his reputation was being questioned.

He couldn't help shouting angrily, "Wait, that's not right? What impression do you have of me?"

"This is a false accusation, a blatant false accusation!"

What does it mean to seduce the true heart of a spirit with just a few words?

You, this guy, fought that temporary battle that suddenly popped up and almost bankrupted you.

Finally, I got a "special relic", which gave me the opportunity to summon a limited edition spirit in the card pool.

The one summoned at that time was none other than Xingjian Jingli, who was wearing a blue and white shrine maiden costume and looking up at the sky with an ethereal expression, and nothing around her could attract her attention.

When I first won it, my phone seemed to have crashed. No matter how I clicked the screen, there was no response.

Once the limited time is up, the screen will go black, and when you open it again, the words "summoning failed" will automatically pop up.

Then the material will disappear automatically.

You have to play through that temporary campaign again before you can summon it again.

After that, Lin Xuan fought seventeen battles in total, summoned the fox-eared girl seventeen times, and consumed seventeen times of card drawing resources.

Finally I figured out that I had to put the camera in front of a mirror before the phone screen went black.

Then the dialogue can be triggered only after the image of the girl reflected in the mirror is broken.

——It was as if only by using a tough attitude to break the mirror that reflects everything on the girl's outside world can one forcibly touch her inner world.

and so.

When Lin Xuan heard what Xingjian Jingli said, the painful memories came to his mind.

He was directly furious!

Damn it, if you really had such a good strategy, would all my resources have been wasted?
This blue-haired fox is really too much. If it were in the game, I would definitely put you on the lobby interface and then rub your fluffy tail hard, even if you are impatient, I would still rub it to my heart's content!
But unfortunately.

This is not a game. The overwhelming invisible evil spirit in front of him made Lin Xuan's skin slightly sting.

The living creature's instinct for survival was telling him clearly that if that fair hand exerted a little more force, his death would be imminent.

So Lin Xuan had to regretfully give up this tempting idea and let that soft tail be arrogant for a while.

And the other side.

Hearing Lin Xuan's angry rebuke, Xing Jian Jingli's pupils dilated slightly and her little mouth opened slightly in shock.

This familiar tone of voice can break the solemn tone of the battlefield as soon as it is spoken.
And that expression inadvertently revealed his intimate and familiar attitude towards her.

A long life brings a dull sense of time.

The girl almost thought that she had returned to the past, still listening to that person complaining in her ear and always having bad intentions towards her.

".wrong."

Shaking his head slightly, Xing Jian Jingli regained his calm expression and said in a decisive tone: "That man died in that battle. I saw it with my own eyes."

"Even if this body of yours really belongs to him, the person speaking inside now definitely cannot be his soul."

Although due to [pollution], the memory of that battle has become blurred to everyone present.

But she could clearly remember that the man's chest had been pierced and he had completely lost his life.

It was a fatal blow that could even destroy the soul.

The dozens of spirits present could confirm that man's death.

No matter whether it is magic or soul summoning, no matter whether it is divine thought or time travel, there is no way to revive his soul.

Otherwise, everyone wouldn't choose to leave in the end.

No matter how much they don't get along with each other, they will definitely try their best to cooperate and rescue that person first.

"So, you can't be him."

Xing Jian Jingli stared at the boy with cold eyes and spoke in a faint voice.

However.
Although the fox-eared girl said this and emphasized it again and again, as if trying to convince herself, her fingertips did not exert any more force.

The rising demonic energy seemed more like a bluff, trying to force the other party to reveal more flaws, a flaw that would allow her to completely deny it.

It's like being timid.

It was like seeing the moon reflected in the water, longing for that brightness and reaching out your hand, but in the end, the only beautiful illusion was shattered.

I long for it, but I am also afraid that what I long for is just a lie.

"Really? That's the case."

"I am already dead."

Even though his identity was repeatedly denied and he was accused of being an impostor, Lin Xuan's expression remained unchanged.

I heard Xingjian Jingli say that he was dead.

He was not angry, and smiled calmly while remaining leaning against the wall.

He had never been able to clear the last level of the game once, so he was not surprised that the battle that year ended in a miserable defeat.

Lin Xuan was worried about only two things before.

First, the world of the mobile game is just a parallel universe, and those spirit girls don’t recognize themselves.

This represents the journey he has experienced, which eventually turned into a series of cold settings and texts.

Lost all meaning.

two is
In that battle, everyone ended up like he had in the game after nearly a hundred attempts to clear the game.

All died.

At this moment, Lin Xuan looked at the fox-eared witch standing in front of him, whose eyes were trembling slightly.

A pure happy smile.

Said: "But, Jingli, you survived in the end, that's great."

The young man's calm voice fell, whispering and echoing in Xingjian Jingli's ears.

It was like the first time we met.

Even if she could reflect it, she could clearly describe every word and every expression of the other person.

——But I can’t describe in words the emotions that are welling up in my heart at this moment.

The girl's fox ears drooped gently, and the demonic energy that was surging around her suddenly disappeared like a deflated ball.

She closed her eyes gently.
