People in Yu-Gi-Oh! The hyper-converged audience is also integrated

Chapter 442 Humans are truly amazing!
In the group of nine Purgers, the rabbit was shaking at an extremely high frequency, frantically poking at the eternally unchanging blank avatar.

"Hey, are you still online, Miss?"

"@WangShou, @WangShou, @WangShou, please respond if you see this!"

"Where is he? Where is he? Where is he? Urgent!"

A series of messages flooded the screen, and several people in the group tagged the blank profile picture, but the blank profile picture remained as still as a stagnant pool, without any ripples.

Just as the rabbit was about to unleash its bombardment mode, an orange cat avatar slowly lit up.

Orange cat: “Meow——”

A cat's meow silenced the entire group chat instantly.

Immediately afterwards, Rose's avatar flashed, and she took the initiative to take on the translation work.

"She's asleep. The fifth choice, Binaire."

The silhouette of a valiant female hero reacts extremely quickly.

Shadow Mist Girl: "I knew it! How could a battle like this be without heroes!"

Her barely suppressed excitement made anyone who didn't know better think she was about to cook.

A helpless sighing emoji appeared next to Rose's profile picture.

"Heroine, I'm begging you. We've been through a lot in this operation, we're moving forward in the dark. Can you please listen to orders, stay close to the team, and be more composed?"

She emphasized the words "open your eyes" to highlight the risks of this operation.

The Shadow Mist Lady confidently declared, "No problem! The hero is guaranteed to win!"

Orange cat: "Meow—" (Composed!)
Rose chuckled softly: "Teacher Cat, you're all weight, no stability."

A simple joke made the group chat much more relaxed.

At this moment, the rabbit chimed in again.

"Wait a minute, this lineup... Miss, me, Cat Teacher, plus Binel? Four girls and one cat, it looks so fancy."

"No one was responsible for taking the blame."

Shadow Mist Girl raises her hand: "Me! Me! Me! I'll take the lead!"

Rose: "You stay over there."

The rabbit hesitated for a long time, then turned its head away: "How about... we call up Red Chess?"

One advantage of electronic beings is that even if they die after becoming human, they only lose some data if they are recovered in time; they do not truly die.

"Did she...give in?" she asked again.

Rose's avatar flashed briefly as she replied, "I'll go ask."

Knock, knock, knock.

A knock came at the door. Li Guanqi paused, composed himself, and replied, "Come in."

The door was pushed open a crack, and Qi Mengsi poked her head in: "Are you free? Come out for a bit, let's talk about Hongqi."

"Uh, okay." Li Guanqi got up and walked out of the room.

Convincing a stubborn electronic being is not a mental task that can be accomplished by one person alone; it requires brainstorming.

Moreover, it takes time for electronic beings to adapt to the human body and for the team to gel. During the two-week team-building period, every minute must be seized.

The two walked into the hall one after the other, and before they had even stopped, they heard the click of doors opening simultaneously from both sides.

Li Guanqi subconsciously glanced to both sides.

From room 101 on the left, Victoria walks out.

The blonde Lolita girl, dressed in an elaborate lace dress, expressionlessly held up a small whiteboard with a neat line of digital text written on it: "Seele, I'd like a cup of black tea."

Xi'er turned to look at Qi Mengsi and Li Guanqi. Seeing that the two did not react, she nodded slightly and walked towards the kitchen.

And the one that came out on the right at 105—

"Hey! My fiancé!"

A spirited shout rang out, and Bina, dressed in sportswear and slippers, rushed out, waving casually at Li Guanqi.

Li Guanqi was taken aback at first, then his gaze unconsciously shifted to her feet.

The pink bunny slippers were the same pair that had been parked at the bathroom door earlier.

She was also a purger.

It turned out to be the case.

He, his lover, and Lin Chen were repeatedly questioned about Latia and her group, going through the interrogation process countless times, while Binaire, also a survivor, seemed to have only been questioned once from beginning to end.

When a person holds a high enough position, their words carry sufficient authority and weight, and they do not need to be repeated to anyone a second time.

Qi Mengsi couldn't stand it anymore and raised her hand to elbow Binaier.

"Seriously!"

Bina winced in pain, making an exaggerated grin, but still managed a cheerful smile.

Li Guanqi shifted his gaze from the slippers back to Bina's face, and this time, seeing it clearly, he was stunned once again.

Only when you get closer do you realize that her face is excessively pale.

It wasn't the delicate, snow-white complexion of a young girl, but a lifeless, paper-like paleness, as if there was no blood flowing beneath the skin.

"Me?" Binair guessed what Li Guanqi was thinking, pointed to her face, and laughed carefree.

"I was poisoned before, and the toxins couldn't be cleared. A vampire friend of mine had no choice but to transform me, and that's how it is."

A heavy past that could have crushed anyone was glossed over by her with a casual "That's it."

Looking at her incredibly bright eyes, Li Guanqi couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion.

How ironic that he could see sunlight on a vampire's face, a light that normal people don't have.

"Hey—" Qi Mengsi reached out and waved her hand in front of Li Guanqi's eyes, interrupting his reverie, "Snap out of it, what are you looking at? She doesn't bite, don't worry."

Bina's smile froze.

Li Guanqi also fell silent.

The phrase "She doesn't bite" left both of them speechless.

(Actually, you can bite it)

Victoria broke the deadlock, silently flipping over the small whiteboard in her hand, on which were three brand new words:
Where is the red chess piece?

The three words on the small electronic board broke the brief awkwardness. Li Guanqi raised his hand, tapped a few times on his phone, and opened the phone screen in his palm: "Living well."

Victoria didn't dare look at her phone screen, but Qi Mengsi and Binaier didn't feel any guilt and simply turned their heads to look.

The screen displays a rectangular frame with a black background. Above it are several apps that don't require an internet connection, mostly popular single-player games. However, one app stands out with its unique art style: "Lala Nuan Nuan," a dress-up mini-game.

Below, in a vast, empty space, only Hongqi was crouching in a corner, drawing circles with his hand, seemingly cursing someone.

Seeing the mini-game and the red chess pieces' movements, Qi Mengsi and Binaier simultaneously raised their eyes and cast strange glances at each other.

"Don't look at me like that," Li Guanqi said, a little guilty. "I...I really didn't mistreat her."

"Clothes. Plenty."

The red chess piece on the phone suddenly stopped drawing circles, its whole body trembling with anger.

Li Guanqi paused, and he could clearly feel a slight vibration coming from the machine body—it was the reaction of the data stream impacting the hardware when Hongqi's emotions fluctuated.

Why are you getting angry? Ha, women.

Seeing Hongqi's withdrawn state, Qi Mengsi and Binai'er were at a loss for words.

Seeing no progress, Victoria stepped forward, gently tapped the screen, and brought the chat board closer to the phone: "[It's me, White]"

Let's talk.

Hongqi's body trembled, and a slight garbled code appeared. She did not turn around and remained facing away from everyone.

A cold sound emanated from the phone's speaker, accompanied by electrical static, and the phone body subsequently heated up.

"Traitor, we have nothing to talk about."

"What, you think trapping me in this broken phone isn't enough? You want to stuff me into a more fragile human body so you can hold me in your hand and manipulate me at any time?"

The data flow around her became disordered, her phone vibrated more violently, and she began to lose control of her emotions.

Qi Mengsi sighed softly, trying to keep her tone calm: "Hongqi, we're not trying to control you. The alliance has the latest bio-transformation technology. Once you become human, you can come out of this phone."

“Yes, I’ll take you out to play!” Binaire agreed with a smile.

Qi Mengsi added, "With a physical body, you can truly stand in the sunlight and taste the tiramisu that Xier makes. These virtual simulations on the screen can never give you a real sense of touch and taste."

"Truth?" Hongqi scoffed. "A mere inferior race dares to speak of truth?"

Her voice suddenly rose, and her phone vibrated more intensely, "We, the electronic race, can live forever in data, and can precisely calculate all variables. Humans can't even control their own hands and mouths! What do you know about reality?"

When she mentioned the word 'mouth,' everyone could sense her obvious anger.

But no one knew why she was angry.

Why can't humans control their mouths?
Did you not control your portion sizes while eating, or did you swear at your partner during an argument?
It couldn't have been something strange that he licked, could it? It seems like there really are people like that.

Qi Mengsi, Binaire, and Victoria cast strange glances at Li Guanqi again, and then all took a half step back.

Even heroes can't withstand a person who licks weirdos indiscriminately.

"Heaven and earth bear witness!" Li Guanqi swore to the heavens, "I have never done anything despicable to her!" "If I had done anything, I will definitely make sure my hand is blocked in the duel! I will attack first and then pass!"

His confident demeanor, coupled with his vicious vow, temporarily dispelled the three women's strange scrutiny.

Victoria lowered her head again and quickly typed on the chat: "Only by becoming human can we leave our phones and rebuild the electronic world."

The biological brain can generate unique mental waves, which is the key to activating the core of the old electronic world. This cannot be done with the limited data in the phone you are holding.

"Don't try to fool me with that excuse!" Red Chess's image flickered violently on the screen, almost turning into a jumble of gibberish. "You've been fooled by humanity's so-called 'making the electronic world better'!"

"Even if I'm trapped in this broken phone forever and perish in the darkness, I'd rather not become one of you inferior races!"

An angry roar rang out, and all four of them frowned.

I tried to talk to her about the benefits of having a sense of realism in humanity, but she wouldn't listen. I also said it would help build a better electronic world, but she still wouldn't listen.

She has given both public and private reasons; she's just being stubborn. There's no way to "torture" a being from the electronic world.

Seele brought over some black tea. Victoria took a sip, and Qi Mengsi said helplessly, "Why is it so difficult?"

The red player on the other end was still venting their anger:
"Once I leave this awful place, I'll tear that filthy man to shreds!"

"Ugh—why do humans keep their phones on their bedside tables while they sleep?!"

The red figure on the screen flickered wildly, like a mass of red data about to explode.

Li Guanqi looked completely bewildered.

A dirty man?
Who is it?

He went through all the 'roles' Hongqi had ever encountered in his mind, and none of them looked unkempt or slovenly.

Victoria and Binaire were still frowning when Seele casually remarked, "A very urgent desire for revenge."

Upon hearing this, Qi Mengsi suddenly realized something.

She recalled the out-of-control anger Hongqi had shown when she mentioned the word "mouth" earlier, and combined that with this nonsensical and harsh remark, a guess formed in her mind.

She paused on Li Guanqi for a fleeting moment, almost imperceptibly.

Seele is right. Revenge is the most urgent emotion, and we can take advantage of it.

Thinking of this, Qi Mengsi spoke softly into her phone in a persuasive tone:
"If you become human and have a body, you can seek revenge on that man anytime."

As soon as he finished speaking, the phone's violent vibrations stopped abruptly.

The raging red data stream on the screen gradually subsided.

Victoria and Binaire were both taken aback, while Li Guanqi, oblivious to the situation, continued to smack his lips as he ate the dessert that Seele had brought him.

Suddenly, the red chess piece on the screen, who had been facing away from everyone and drawing circles in a corner, stopped all its movements.

Her stiff body, like a rusty machine, slowly turned around, frame by frame.

On the screen, Hongqi slowly raised her head.

Her gaze pierced through the screen, past Victoria, past Qi Mengsi and Binair, and landed precisely on Li Guanqi.

For a moment, Li Guanqi felt the surrounding air drop by more than ten degrees, and a chill ran straight to the top of his head.

No way...? The filthy man is... me?
Honestly, he rescued her from the chaotic data flow of the Phantom Collapse, provided her with good food and drink (meaning plenty of battery power), and even downloaded a dress-up game to make sure she had clothes to wear!
How does that make him a dirty man?!

Just because I play "Hubert"? Is it worth abandoning the nobility of the electronic world just to come out and make a scene?

Hongqi stared intently at Li Guanqi, and in her rage, she finally relented, giving a soft "Mmm": "Okay, I agree."

Li Guanqi felt a chill run down her spine: "No, sister, but then again, actually, let's be human."

Without listening to his further explanation, Victoria's eyes lit up the moment she heard Hongqi 'give in'. Without waiting a second, she took out a data disk and began the transfer program. After a while, she looked up at Li Guanqi and held up a sign: "Transfer key."

Li Guanqi reluctantly parted ways with his electronic pet and entered the key—Silver Princess of the Labyrinth City—on the transfer interface.

A short while later, Victoria took the data disk containing the red pieces and happily walked towards room 101, turning around in circles as she went.

"You've worked hard these past few days." Qi Mengsi gently patted Li Guanqi's shoulder. "Don't worry, once Hongqi becomes human, he will be under strict surveillance and generally won't be able to contact you."

"Are you participating in this operation?" Li Guanqi abruptly changed the subject.

Qi Mengsi paused for a moment, looked at him with surprise, and said, "No, I'll stay home this time."

"I see," Li Guanqi replied, casually suppressing his restless thoughts.

He didn't ask any more questions, chatted casually with Binel for a few more minutes, and that was the end of it.

Little did he know that this was just the beginning.

Five days after Hongqi left.

The door to room 101 next door always seemed to be broken, with a crack always remaining.

Every time he passed by, he could hear a low-frequency hum coming from inside, like something was vibrating continuously, which was very disturbing.

Seven days after Hongqi left.

The buzzing sound disappeared, replaced by an even stranger sound.

"Um……"

"Ugh... Ah~"

Intermittent and melodious, it seemed as if someone was trying hard to hold back their emotions, or as if they were savoring some exquisite delicacy.

The sound wasn't loud, but it was extremely penetrating, especially on quiet nights.

Li Guanqi suddenly awoke from his meditation, his face flushed.

If the door to Taipei 101 hadn't been slightly ajar, he would have had the wrong idea.

Ten days after Hongqi left.

The voice changed.

It was no longer that long, drawn-out melody, but a rapid, panting breath, interspersed with broken syllables.

"open……"

"I...want...ah..."

It sounded like a struggle, yet tinged with an inexplicable urgency.

Li Guanqi took a deep breath, recited the Light Heart Mantra, and forced himself to calm down.

"Activate the Berserk Magic Circle—"

Fifteen days after Hongqi left.

The sounds from next door can't be described as "strange"; they're like a chaotic dance of demons.

A mixture of suppressed, rapid, and satisfied breaths mingled together, sounding like... it wasn't just one person, but a group gathering, and it all sounded like girls' voices.

The door was still open.

Li Guanqi's patience finally reached its limit.

After cultivating for so many years, his mental state was far beyond that of ordinary people, but after these fifteen days, his Dao heart was worn down by the decadent music from next door.

He tiptoed to the door, moving even more quietly than a cat.

He made his decision and glanced at it out of the corner of his eye.

Just one glance! Just one glance!
He slowly leaned his body against the wall, tilting his head little by little, his gaze squeezing through the crack in the door.

The living room of room 101 was steaming hot.

A large round table was placed in the center, with a copper pot on it, the red oil bubbling and the white soup churning.

Victoria was engrossed in her meal, her mouth bulging, while Binaire was equally unrefined, shoveling large mouthfuls of tender beef into the broth. Qi Mengsi, on the other hand, moved with elegance, picking up food with chopsticks and a faint smile on her face.

Among them was a red-haired woman who was a stranger.

The woman had fair skin and delicate features, but her pretty face was flushed red, her forehead was covered in fine beads of sweat, and her lips were slightly swollen from the spiciness. She was constantly sucking in cool air.

"Hiss...ha..."

While fanning herself with her hand, she couldn't help but pick up a piece of tripe soaked in broth from the scalding hot pot and stuff it into her mouth impatiently.

"Mmm...uh...ah!"

A sigh, both satisfied and painful, escaped her lips.

This was the source of the sound Li Guanqi had been hearing these past few days.

The woman's eyes were almost watering from the spiciness, but she gulped down a large mouthful of ice-cold drink. Finally, her eyes lit up, and with a tone of discovery, she exclaimed loudly:

"Humans... are truly amazing!"

Li Guanqi's silence was deafening.

No, ladies, you're just eating hot pot, is it really necessary to make this noise?

We live in the same apartment, but you never invite me to your hot pot dinner?

What a great hatred.
Li Guanqi, lost in thought, stared blankly: "That red-haired woman...could it be..."

He glanced at the red-haired woman's neck and clearly saw a restraint collar.

"hiss--"

Red Queen, where is your dignity in the electronics world?! A hot pot is all you need?!

Fifteen days later, all the teams had completed their assembly.

(Underworld Team, Silver City Team, Purifier Team, Shenwu Unit)
