"Oh no, why is the Snow Woman attacking? I remember my uncle saying that this Snow Woman has the strength of a second-tier cultivator, right?"

The moment I saw the Snow Woman take action.

Yan Ling became excited.

However, turning his head and looking through the doorway, he saw his uncle in the kitchen, dressed as an octagon, riding on a piece of beef and cosplaying as a cowboy.

I felt relieved again.

"Hey, everything will be safe and sound in the end."

"But this is only second-tier."

Lü Ming was worried.

Chung Pak flicked his blond hair.

"Little Naruto, that's where your unprofessionalism comes in. Although Yuki-onna is only Tier 2, there's a lot of room for variation in the different tiers within the entire player system."

"what?"

"Have you forgotten what your master said? There's no way that Tier 1 and Tier 2 players can compete with each other. But there's another thing in this system called 'professionals.' Don't forget! Professionals are also divided into Tier 1 Iron and Tier 2 Bronze. But Tier 1 players aren't afraid of Tier 2 professionals at all because their methods are simple and rigid. They just have about the same amount of data as Tier 2 players. To put it bluntly, anyone weighing over 200 pounds is called Tier 2. Professionals are all fat and can lie in bed, while players have muscles that can withstand bullets. Plus, they're fully armed and weigh over 200 pounds. It's easy to understand who's stronger, right?"

"But the Snow Woman is an anomaly."

"From what I understand so far, the intensity of the phenomenon varies too much. We know that the Snow Woman has second-tier data, but whether it's muscle or fat, it's really hard to say."

"Uncle was still cosplaying as a Western bull... oh, he's turned into a dragon rider now, that's the best answer."

Zhong Bai glanced at Zhou Wan, who was riding on the beef dragon in the kitchen, and commanded the giant dragon beneath him to spew flames and burn the traitors (referring to potatoes).

"That's true."

[The footage plays again.]

The Snow Woman's energy spread out, and the leader shouted, "Protect!"

A golden, semi-transparent dome enveloped her and the rest of the guild, including Liliana.

[The others at the celebration weren't so lucky; they were all frozen into ice sculptures, like something out of an arsenal.]

"Snow Woman, what are you doing?! Aren't you the spiritual totem of Snow Flower City?!" the leader roared.

"Oh right! I suddenly remembered that my uncle said that those intelligent anomalies are also entitled to equal human rights. This Yuki-onna should also belong to that kind of benevolent anomaly, so why is she suddenly attacking ordinary people as well?"

Yan Ling suddenly remembered.

My uncle mentioned that in other worlds, intelligent beings can live alongside intelligent races, and there are also intelligent superhuman beings.

"Senior sister, Master only said that these kinds of strange phenomena can gain recognition of one's identity, but he never said that they are all good. There are so many people on Earth, and there are good people and bad people. I'm not surprised at all by this situation."

"But if she attacks ordinary people, won't the people in the other world think that these strange phenomena are dangerous and want to exterminate them? Just like in the TV shows, monsters are evil, demons are evil, and when they meet, it's a life-or-death battle."

Zhong Bai shook his head. "I guess it's because the other world is too big. In TV dramas, there are even cases where monsters are good people. Any city in the other world is as big as a province here. The diversity of species should be even greater. Some people may have the idea that those who are not of our kind must have different intentions, and they may be crazy about other races, especially unstable factors such as anomalies and supernatural beings. Naturally, there are places that can accept them."

"Okay, you're right. Every city has its own unique customs and traditions. Maybe there's even a city where everyone is a poor soul who has been persecuted by the intelligent phenomenon and they've gathered together to find a way to take revenge."

"Haha, having intelligence only means they can communicate, it doesn't mean they're absolutely safe."

The Snow Woman remained calm despite her attack being intercepted.

"That's right, it's precisely because I am their spiritual symbol, carrying the expectations of hundreds of millions of residents in this city, that I have to do this."

"What do you mean!" The leader frowned, not understanding the connection.

"Well, since you're all going to become my nourishment soon anyway, telling you won't hurt. After all, I deeply love your human race."

The Snow Woman didn't say anything; with a wave of her hand, snowflakes fluttered down, and two tiny figures made of ice cream snowflakes appeared.

"Hundreds of years ago, when I was first born, this place wasn't like this. Back then, it was extremely arid, and only a small group of mortals lived here. The lack of water and drought made their lives miserable. I couldn't bear to see this, so I was born. I brought them low temperatures, water, and snowflakes."

"Hmm? This sounds like a dark and twisted story?"

Yan Ling frowned.

"No way, didn't she just say she loves humans? Was she being sarcastic?"

Chung Pak maintained his opposition.

"And then? They betrayed you??" Zhou Wan guessed the same thing back then. After all, that's how plot twists usually happen; that's what makes the story compelling and gives the characters a character arc.

"Why would you think that?" the Snow Woman asked, puzzled.

Zhou Wan's heart skipped a beat. What happened? Was this not how things were going to develop? Was it because, as a human from Earth, my heart was too dark?

"They didn't betray me, or rather, there was no betrayal between me and humanity. To me, seeing these humans active on this land makes me happy."

"Then why are you hurting them now?"

"Harm them? No, I'm happy. Some people want snow with a certain flavor, and I satisfy them. I'm satisfied just to see so many humans active. However, I am not a god; I am merely an anomaly. My existence requires a medium, so every ten years, I hold the Snow Woman Festival to find a medium that allows me to continue existing."

"Um, you mean you simply want to continue existing and then hold the Snow Woman Festival to choose a suitable sacrifice?"

"Isn't that reason enough? Don't you humans also need to eat?"

"But you clearly said you liked humans, yet you did this kind of thing."

"They are not in conflict. I like watching humans laugh. If sacrificing just one person can allow them to continue laughing, I think it's worth it."

"Well, for a moment, I can't tell whether this Yuki-onna is righteous or evil. If you say she's evil, she's protecting hundreds of millions of people. If you say she's kind, she has some rare and precious things to take, although she only takes one every ten years, which is much better than those monsters that take boys and girls every year."

Yan Ling felt like she was starting to get a brain.

From the perspective of the overall interests of humanity, the Snow Woman is doing good deeds.

Moreover, the cost is extremely low. In a community of hundreds of millions of people, countless people die naturally every day, yet she only takes one every ten years. Even capitalists would be heartbroken to see this.

But from a personal perspective, damn it, why should I be the one to die?

"Senior sister, my sense of good and evil and my moral values ​​are at odds."
