No health bar? You call this stunningly beautiful NPC sickly?

Mu Zhixi was seriously considering how to reveal her NPC identity in order to maximize her benefits and harvest the most faith points!

Although she has the help of a referee like the Dragon Girl and bodyguards from the Knights Squadron, she still needs to be strong herself to fight.

The Dragon Girl is so small, and although she can use the rules to instantly kill players, what if she encounters something strange?

Besides, she couldn't possibly be running around with so many riders 24/7! It would make her look like a gangster!

If there weren't so many people around, Mu Zhixi would have directly threatened him: Give me a humanoid Tyrannosaurus Rex transformation device! And the kind with no time limit for transformation!

Seeing that there was still no response, Mu Zhixi sighed softly in her heart.

Ever since she returned the star, the other party seems to have ignored her. It's just a star, right? They won't even support a one-day no-reason return policy. They're obviously a wicked capitalist swindler! Mu Zhixi can't stand this kind of swindler!

...

Meanwhile, the fraud duo on the other side are still questioning their existence.

Is the game's rules bugged? How can she embody both the extremes of good and evil? Just one person?

What's the logic behind this?

"..." Luo Shu was somewhat doubtful of himself, "Did I make a mistake with my 'Turtle Noodle Soup'?"

"No." Ji Xinghui was extremely serious. He raised his hand and wiped away the result on his [Roulette of Deception], as if it were some kind of taboo that would be tainted by even a glance. "Your divination was not wrong; it is our perception that has been flawed."

Luo Shu stood aside, holding the tattered rag doll, her little face full of confusion. How could two completely opposite traits, "pure and kind" and "vicious and vicious," coexist in one person?

unless……

"Unless, in her definition, or rather, in the definition of 'He' behind her, the standards of 'good' and 'evil' are completely different from those of us mortals." Ji Xinghui suddenly realized, his reasoning ability had never been bad!

"Her kindness stems from her nature, while her ferocity perhaps means that any act of disobeying her will result in a devastating blow, even if the source of that blow is not her," Ji Xinghui offered her judgment.

Luo Shu nodded, seemingly understanding, then picked up the tarot cards from the ground and muttered softly, "So what should we do now? Should we... go down and say hello to her?"

"No rush." ​​Ji Xinghui's gaze returned to the figure surrounded by people in the mirror, her eyes filled with inquiry and interest. "The game has only just begun. Let's see what this 'Goddess' is up to."

Meanwhile, inside the alchemy workshop.

Those players who had originally scattered and fled wisely chose to stay put after seeing the consequences of their attempts to ambush Mu Zhixi and the others.

They now understand that in this eerie villa, all the corners, crevices, secret rooms, and cellars are fake; the only true "safe zone" is right next to Number One.

After all, the two hundred-plus royal knights, all of whom were at least S-rank, were no mere decorations. Their iron-blooded killing intent could make people weak in the knees even from a distance, let alone those puppets and monsters. Would they dare to approach?

"I think these weirdos are really ugly, all weirdly shaped and lacking in aesthetic appeal." The second werewolf player deliberately complained loudly in an attempt to build rapport, while also flattering the player.

"Unlike us players, each one of us looks perfectly respectable, especially you, the number one beauty, you're simply a miracle of the Creator!"

As soon as he said this, several players around him echoed his sentiments, desperately trying to make themselves known to Mu Zhixi.

Mu Zhixi listened to these people's flattery, her lips twitching slightly. "Dude, you might not know, but I'm the 'weird' you're talking about, ugly in my own unique way."

Mu Zhixi maintained a cool and aloof demeanor, as if she hadn't heard their discussions. She simply held the dragon girl's hand quietly, her gaze fixed on the blood-red knights.

These knights are indeed a problem.

They were too "loyal," so loyal that they were getting in the way, almost ruining her "beautiful, strong, and tragic" persona.

She was thinking about whether she should find an excuse to send these "temporary workers" away.

The alchemist who claimed to be her follower appeared once again at just the right time.

"Your Majesty, those vile insects outside seem to have developed some unrealistic illusions about your mercy." The alchemist's tone carried a hint of barely perceptible fanaticism. "They seem to think that by hiding, they can escape your judgment."

He bowed slightly and made an elegant "please" gesture, pointing to the other end of the workshop, where a huge portal emitting a ghostly blue light had appeared out of nowhere.

"To prevent these noises from polluting your ears, I've prepared a little 'entertainment' for you."

"Let our new guests use their wisdom and courage to present you with a...wonderful 'performance'."

"A late-stage case of chuunibyou (middle school syndrome)." Mu Zhixi secretly concluded, then ignored the other person and led the players away into the distance, hand in hand with the dragon girl.

Soon, Mu Zhixi's attention was drawn to the pattern on the floor tiles beneath her feet.

The ground was paved with alternating black and gray stone slabs of different shades, seemingly chaotic but actually concealing a hidden mystery.

With the blessing of the "Eye of the Lord," as a non-player unit with the highest authority in the game, Mu Zhixi can transform the entire world into a model composed of lines and data whenever she wants.

Beneath those dark gray stone slabs are miniature alchemical detonation arrays. Stepping on them will trigger the poison gas nozzles at the top of the corridor, and all patrolling puppets will also know their location.

Mu Zhixi didn't want to pay attention, so she subconsciously took a step. Unexpectedly, the floor suddenly began to shift, and she stepped precisely on the pure black stone slab with every step.

Mu Zhixi was completely unprepared for these stone slabs to move! And why were these black floorboards all moving towards her feet?!

She's so classy, ​​shouldn't she put on an act?
