Al Fort from the Street Fighter faction isn't a bad guy; he's just a cook who loves life and wrestling. But in the Scarlet Devil Space, to survive, no matter how much he hates fighting, he has to kill his opponent. Only in this way can he live.

Wearing a full-face wrestling mask, El looked at Levi and the female tengu with a wary gaze, while lowering his center of gravity, as if he could continue fighting at any moment.

“Mr. Wrestler, could you do me the honor of handing her over to me?” Levi said with a smile, pointing to Heart, who was still panting heavily beside him.

El could sense Levi's power, but he had no intention of backing down here. After all, he had finally caught a soft target and was about to crush him, but someone had interfered. He couldn't accept this.

El struck a pose at Levi and said in a deep voice, "Come on, if you want to take someone away, let your strength speak for itself. No one here will give you face."

“That’s a real shame, Mr. Wrestler. My pride is very valuable. Since you’re not going to give me that respect, then you might as well stay here forever,” Li Wei said with a smile.

Levi's aura began to emanate outwards, and Al Fort felt that he was no longer facing a person, but an indescribable and terrifying being. This pressure made him doubt whether he had been right or wrong to provoke Levi.

Levi had at least played Street Fighter IV, so he had a fairly good understanding of Al. Like Zangief, Al was a wrestler. Unlike Zangief, who used absolute strength to suppress the opponent, Al was not as strong as Zangief, but he was a "master" of the wrestling style, focusing on speed and technique.

However, for a master like Li Wei, neither strength nor skill matters anymore, because he can no longer be measured by the standards of normal humans. Therefore, the strength and skills that exist in the mortal world are meaningless to him.

At this moment, Xin was still somewhat unable to react. Li Wei, who was not on the same side as her at all, actually came to her aid. This was unbelievable to her. After all, in this space, people from different factions would immediately start fighting when they met. The irreconcilable contradictions would cause people from different factions to start fighting to the death as soon as they met.

Xin was pulled to the side by the female tengu, who then protected her behind her.

Confused, she asked, "Miss Tengu, what's going on? That person is actually willing to help us. Isn't he from the opposing camp?"

The female tengu said, "What you say is not right. He has already partially separated from his original camp and created his own. I have sought his protection, and now I no longer need to worry about my safety."

Xin showed a surprised expression, because in this cruel space, other problems were minor, and safety was the biggest problem. However, in this space, like the faction she was currently in, safety was the most serious issue.

··· ·Requesting flowers····

Now, her faction has become prey for the other two factions to farm points, and once she is discovered by the other two factions, it will be difficult for her to escape.

That's why her faction has now given up on taking the initiative and has gone into a defensive posture. After all, if they can't win, they'll just be throwing their lives away.

During this time, she kept a low profile and tried her best to hide herself. Although she knew that doing so would ultimately lead to her death, people have a will to live, and even if it meant living a few more days, it would be good.

"Is it really true that there's no need to worry about safety? But what if everyone in the loser camp is wiped out? What should we do about that?" Xin asked.

The female celestial dog herself didn't know about this, but she thought Li Wei would consider it. After all, if there was no way to save them, why bother running around rescuing people?

........ ......

The female tengu said, "The master hasn't told me about this yet, but I believe he already has a way to solve this problem."

Xin nodded. She had no other choice. Since the female tengu said it was okay, she would believe her for now. After all, if she couldn't get through this hurdle, there was no point in talking about the future.

With some worry, she said, "That masked pervert on the other side is very strong, Miss Tengu. Do you think he can be a match for him?"

The female tengu smiled, recalling Li Wei's casual strike earlier. Such a strong person should be one of the few in the entire space. He was just a wrestler. If Li Wei really got serious, he could crush him with a single finger.

The female tengu laughed and said, "Although I haven't spent much time with you, sir, I know your strength. You wouldn't lose to an opponent of this caliber. To put it bluntly, that masked guy over there is just a nobody to you."

She was somewhat surprised; she hadn't expected the proud female celestial dog to have such a high opinion of Li Wei, which took her by surprise.

Li Wei knew that now was the time for him to demonstrate his strength, and he needed to give Xin a sufficient sense of security. At the same time, he wanted Xin to become his advocate, so that he could more easily win over other girls.

Chapter 4. The Consequences of Not Giving Face

El ran towards Levi at an astonishing speed; to an ordinary person, his charge was so fast that it left afterimages.

But just as he was about to approach Li Wei, he crashed into an invisible barrier, and the enormous reaction force threw him away.

Li Wei raised his hand, and four golden triangular faces appeared, trapping the still empty El inside. El pounded hard against the light cage that imprisoned him, but no matter how hard he tried, the cage did not change in the slightest.

"What kind of technique is this?" El asked in surprise. The strength that Li Wei had displayed had already surpassed his knowledge; such a skill was no different from magic.

Facing El's surprise mixed with fear, Levi calmly smiled and said, "Just some underhanded tricks. Now, let's talk about how you didn't give me face."

El gritted his teeth. He knew he couldn't escape this time. Li Wei's strength was far greater than he had imagined; the two were simply not on the same level.

Li Wei laughed and said, "Very good, very spirited! A tough guy like you is much better than those spineless cowards who grovel at my feet and beg for mercy when things come to a head, so I will give you a quick death."

Li Wei snapped his fingers, and the golden energy tetrahedron began to compress inward. In just a few seconds, El was squeezed into a bloody mess, and finally, he and the tetrahedron annihilated.

Xin was so shocked by what she saw that she could hardly speak. The methods Li Wei displayed had gone beyond the scope of "fighting" and were like those of a mythical immortal. Such power was enough to crush most enemies.

The enemy who could have easily cornered her was dealt with effortlessly by Li Wei with a snap of his fingers. It was simply unbelievable. Now she understood why the female tengu had joined Li Wei. Li Wei had become incredibly powerful, capable of turning the tide of battle single-handedly. Such a being was enough to support an entire faction.

Looking at Xin's disheveled state, Li Wei said, "What a lovely girl, it's a pity she was dragged into this place. This place isn't exactly friendly to girls."

The female tengu gently grasped Kokoro's shoulder and said, "My lord, Kokoro is badly injured. What should we do about her injuries?"

The female tengu is a yokai with a physical strength far superior to that of humans, and her recovery ability is quite good. The injury she sustained a few hours ago is already 70% healed. However, since her heart is only human, she will need at least half a month to recover from such an injury.

However, this also means that Xin cannot keep up with her and Li Wei's pace. As Xin was in the same camp before and will be in the same camp in the future, Nyotengu is quite concerned about her.

Li Wei said, "This little injury is nothing to me."

Li Wei channeled his magic, and specks of golden light descended from mid-air, seeping into the bodies of Nyotengu and Kokoro. Their injuries began to heal at a visible speed. At the same time, their kimonos, which had been damaged in the battle, were restored to their original perfect condition, even becoming more exquisite.

Feeling the changes in her body, she was overwhelmed with excitement and didn't know how to express herself. Such an injury would require considerable time to heal, but in her current environment, she had no time to recover. Yet now, her body had miraculously returned to its peak condition—a feat beyond the capabilities of ordinary people.

After all, Xin had participated in the Dead or Alive tournament, so she had a certain understanding of the top experts in her world. However, in her mind, no one could do such an unscientific thing.

The female tengu said, "Heart won't work. Taking her around would be a hassle. What should we do, sir?"

The female tengu also wanted to see what tricks Li Wei had up his sleeve. Although Li Wei was powerful, she wanted to see more of his abilities, because the more powerful Li Wei was, the more advantageous it would be for them.

Li Wei retrieved a blanket that hadn't been used for some time from his sea of ​​consciousness. The rolled-up blanket unfurled in mid-air and floated only a few dozen centimeters above the ground, hovering there.

Li Wei said, "Mobility is not a problem, and I will not abandon anyone in the camp. As long as there is a possibility of saving them, I will try. As long as they are not killed on the spot, I have a way to bring them back."

Using location spells, Li Wei can locate all beings he knows, whether they are alive or dead. As long as they have appeared in the game, he can locate them if he remembers them. However, he has no way to locate those who have not appeared in the game. Because of this, some oversights have led to the deaths of some female characters who did not officially appear in the game, which is something he cannot do about...

However, what Li Wei needs to do now is to rescue the girls from the Dead or Alive faction who have already appeared in the game. As for the girls from the Street Fighter faction, since their strength is guaranteed and their survival ability is stronger than that of the girls from the Dead or Alive faction, they will be temporarily placed in the first stage. He will go and pull out those girls from the Street Fighter faction after he has finished dealing with things here.

The female tengu said, "Does everyone have to persevere...? That's a good idea, but is it really possible to do it?"

Li Wei laughed and said, "You should have some faith in me. Just because ordinary people can't do something doesn't mean I can't. I've decided to save you, so naturally I'll see it through to the end. Moreover, I have special methods that can help you escape being wiped out. So, all you have to do is follow me with peace of mind and help me gather as many people as possible."

Saving lives is like putting out a fire; if you're too slow, you often end up just collecting corpses. As long as someone is breathing, Li Wei can bring them back to life, but reviving the dead is much more troublesome, and Li Wei hates trouble the most. So, getting things done smoothly is the best thing to do.

Xin sat down on the carpet, looking obedient. Li Wei nodded and said, "Now, let's go to the next place. Tian Gou, you get on the carpet too. Your walking speed is still a bit slow in my opinion."

While the female tengu could move, her speed was limited, far inferior to those old propeller fighters from the Warring States period. She was only good for bullying ordinary, helpless people.

As for the carpet on Li Wei's side, supersonic speed is the most basic requirement. Under full speed, it can reach Mach 4 to ensure the safety of the crew. If the crew members are strong enough, the carpet's speed can continue to increase until it approaches Mach. This speed is much faster than Nyotengu himself.

The female tengu knew her speed couldn't keep up with modern vehicles, and her wings transformed into feathers and disappeared. This scene amused Li Wei; legend had it that the crow tengu's wings could be folded, but no ancient text recorded in detail how.

After the three people got on the blanket, it quickly rose upwards, heading in an unknown direction.

Chapter 4. Savior

Looking down at the earth from high above, the vast city stretching as far as the eye can see is visually stunning. The city where the safe zone is located is even larger than any city in the real world. Currently, the three factions are limited by manpower and can only explore a limited area.

Xin lay on the edge of the blanket, her hand cautiously reaching out, but it couldn't reach beyond the blanket's edge; instead, it bumped into an invisible barrier. She tried to feel around the barrier, and once she realized it completely enveloped the blanket, she leaned against it with peace of mind, no longer afraid of the empty space behind her.

"My lord, how did you lock onto our target? The three factions don't alert each other to their presence unless they are extremely close," the female tengu asked curiously.

Xin also looked over, quite curious about the matter. Li Wei probably didn't know her before, yet he was able to pinpoint her location accurately and arrive just in time for the most critical moment. Besides gratitude, she also felt an inescapable curiosity.

Li Wei smiled and said, "Everyone has their own secrets. As for this matter, please allow me to keep it a secret for now."

Li Wei didn't want to explain the principle behind his positioning spell. After all, the nature of positioning spells requires a certain level of understanding of the target. So how could he explain his understanding of the girls in the Dead or Alive camp? It was precisely because of this concern that Li Wei didn't want to answer the other party's question.

Both Nyotengu and Kokoro were somewhat disappointed, but as Li Wei said, everyone has secrets. Li Wei did not inquire about their past, so conversely, he also had the right not to answer such questions.

The three landed in an old residential area filled with low-rise buildings. The deserted area gave off an indescribable eeriness, like a scene from a horror movie.

Li Wei said, "The target should be around here. If we search carefully, we should be able to find it soon."

It's not just people from different factions who can sense each other; people from the same faction can also clearly sense each other's presence as long as they don't exceed a certain distance. However, this sensing distance is affected by individual strength; the stronger an individual is, the greater the effective range of this sensing ability.

For a powerful figure like Li Wei, the range of his perception of his allies can extend to kilometers away. However, compared to his own perception, this level of convenience makes little difference.

Li Wei has found the target he was looking for. He senses that the other party seems to have given up struggling and is leisurely enjoying the last moments of his life.

The three of them entered an old apartment building and, led by Li Wei, arrived at the door of a room.

"My lord, are you sure this is the place? I'm about to break down the door." The female tengu lifted the hem of her kimono, revealing her strong and powerful long legs, and prepared to kick the security door to pieces. In her eyes, this kind of security door was as flimsy as paper.

Li Wei said, "There's no need to be so violent. We're here to rescue her, not to cause trouble. Kicking down the door will easily scare her away. If she jumps off the building to escape, it will take us much longer to find her."

With a little magic, Li Wei easily opened the security door. There were no intrusion warning mechanisms on the door, so Li Wei opened it without making a sound.

The three people went inside. All the lights were on in the room. In the slightly old-fashioned living room, a dark-skinned girl was lying on the sofa, covered with a blanket, fast asleep.

"Lei Fang? It's great to see an acquaintance here." Xin breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Lei Fang. Her previous faction had become easy targets for other factions to farm points because of insufficient individual combat strength. The other two factions were keeping a close eye on this side, trying to reduce the number of people to half as quickly as possible.

People are naturally inclined to seek advantage and avoid harm. The individual combat strength of the Street Fighter and King of Fighters factions is not much different. If a full-scale conflict were to occur, the casualties on both sides would be quite heavy. Therefore, the Dead or Alive faction would become the best target for racking up points.

Xin Zai has many friends in the camp, and she didn't want to see anything happen to them. Now that she sees Lei Fang safe and sound, she is relieved.

With his heart two seats away, he said in a low voice, "Lei Fang, wake up quickly."

The quiet living room was shattered by Xin's voice. Lei Fang jumped up like a startled cat, assuming a fighting stance and warily scanning her surroundings. When she saw it was Xin, she breathed a sigh of relief. However, when she saw Li Wei, the relaxed expression on her face froze instantly.

Xin also noticed Lei Fang's abnormality and said, "Don't be afraid, we're here to save you."

Lei Fang hid behind Xin, looking at Li Wei with wary eyes, and said, "Are you sure? This man is not from our camp. Are you sure this isn't a trap to lure out more people from our camp?"

Xin smiled helplessly. Lei Fang was a very smart girl, but this time, her guess was wrong. If Li Wei really wanted to harm her, she wouldn't have any room to resist. The same was true for Lei Fang; wouldn't it be faster to just take action directly?

Looking at the adorable cheongsam-clad girl hiding behind his heart, Li Wei sighed inwardly. There was a reason why Dead or Alive was called Dead or Rush, because the female characters in the game were all incredibly cute, each possessing their own unique charm.

The adorable girl in the cheongsam in front of you, exuding a girl-next-door charm, is undoubtedly the dream goddess of many gamers.

Her fair skin was so delicate it seemed like it could be broken with a touch; her bright eyes, alert yet brimming with a hint of cunning; her head hung naturally with a cascade of black hair; and her perfectly voluptuous figure made her a goddess in the world of plus-size women. All her curves were in the right places, a figure that would make most women envious.
