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

As the alchemist's declaration fell, the deformed monsters crawling on the ground roared, their scarlet eyes gleaming in the darkness, surging towards Ji Xinghui, Gu Wenzhou, and the others.

Mu Zhixi made no extra movements. Looking at the chaotic scene in front of her, the expressionless woman once again demonstrated her consistent level of composure.

The only thing that made her slightly displeased was the alchemist.

Good grief, I consider you a believer, and you actually want to ruin my livelihood?

Meanwhile, the Old Royal Knights also met the deformed monster head-on without showing any weakness, with cold metal and burning killing intent intertwining and colliding in the courtyard.

These players are walking ATMs for faith points, and they're also excellent advertisements for her. If she kills them all, where else can she find such a useful mobile camera?

The player team did not panic. Since the alchemist chose to launch the attack in front of Miss Number One, it meant that he was certain that his next move would not really anger her.

Even a fool could see from the alchemist's attitude towards Number One that Number One's status in the Holy Land must be far higher than his own, and Number One is a person of pure and kind nature, so they were certain that the other party would not dare to kill him.

Of course, the main reason is that they didn't have any other options...

[Haha, I get the feeling that the number one beauty's followers want to kill the players even more than her enemies.]

What does the goddess's compassion for humanity have to do with her knight? If he couldn't see humanity, wouldn't the goddess not have compassion for him? [doge emoji]

[The comment above makes some sense, but speaking of which, what exactly is the relationship between the Old Royal Court and the Sanctuary behind the Number One Beauty?]

[Judging from what those knights said, the princess they were talking about was the supreme leader of the old royal court, yet they were here to escort people from the Holy Land...]

As someone who pays close attention to details, let me summarize the known information for everyone: First, the Sanctuary is an organization where divine authority reigns supreme. Even if the number one beauty, 'Ran,' isn't the 'Lord' herself, she is undoubtedly an authoritative figure with direct connections to the gods.

Secondly, the old royal court was an imperial power, and generally speaking, royal power and divine power have always been in opposition, which is likely the root of their conflict.

Finally, and most importantly, the princess of the old royal court and the number one sister of the Holy Land definitely know each other, and their relationship is quite close. Judging from the knight's firm attitude of "please go back," the princess seems to miss the number one beauty very much.

Wait, hold on, why do I smell a scent of unrequited love? Could it be that the princess fell in love with the goddess, but couldn't have her, so she wants to kidnap her and chain her up?

【!!! You've opened up a whole new world for me! The knight's appearance in front of me, coupled with the princess's command, has already conjured up a vivid picture in my mind. Write it down quickly, I love reading it!】

[Your focus is so strange! I just want to see the number one beauty unleash her fury in the name of God, conquering all sides, focusing on her career – a true beauty and powerhouse!]

[I love career-oriented fans too! But a domineering, gloomy princess x a cold, compassionate goddess + forced love is also a great pairing!]

[Since forced love is already here, why not add incest, yandere imprisonment, a youthful redemption/white moonlight, and the bitterness of the moon not shining alone? Wouldn't that be even more exciting?]

The viewers in the Wanzu live stream were having a heated discussion, while the players in the game were too busy to care about anything else.

Just as those deformed monsters were about to rush forward, Mu Zhixi's seemingly casual action of getting up was as clear as slow motion in everyone's eyes.

In the blink of an eye, she appeared silently in front of the group of players, her slender figure completely isolating them from the chaos and carnage.

Gu Wenzhou, Cheng Xiaocheng, and even Ji Xinghui, who had just been on guard, all felt their hearts skip a beat the moment they saw that figure, and were inexplicably at ease.

Even though she hadn't done anything, those crazed monsters seemed to have hit an invisible wall, stopping a few meters away from her, letting out uneasy roars, and daring not to take another step forward.

The alchemist's smile froze; he couldn't understand why His Majesty would protect these lowly mortals.

They all call you God, but I prefer to call you God. Gu Wenzhou looked at that retreating figure and murmured those words to himself.

The stories always say that goddesses have great love in their hearts.

They had only heard about it in the past, but today they witnessed it with their own eyes.

She could have stayed out of it, she had powerful knights protecting her, and she didn't even need to care about the lives of these players, yet she still stood in the most dangerous place.

If this cannot be called a god, then what is worthy of the word "god"?

However, being moved did not cloud Ji Xinghui's judgment.

Ji Xinghui looked at that retreating figure, pondered for a moment, and then spoke up, "Miss Luo."

"team leader?"

"Try again," Ji Xinghui gave Luo Shu a complicated look.

Luo Shu understood immediately and realized what he meant.

It wasn't just out of simple curiosity; the main reason was to determine how to approach this mysterious Miss Number One.

Trust, unwavering loyalty, or maintaining distance and being prepared to flee at any cost if necessary?

They need answers. In this battle of titans, if they want to survive, their top priority is to find out the true identity of this mysterious Miss Number One.

Luo Shu nodded, though uneasy, he took out the old tarot deck again.

Luo Shu first took out a silver needle and pricked her finger, smearing the blood on the doll's forehead. This was a buffer she had prepared for herself.

This time, Luo Shu recalled the long list of titles that had popped up during the previous divination and posed a question that everyone wanted to know but dared not touch.

"Please tell me, is Number One 'Ran' the same as 'He'?"

The moment the words fell, the tarot cards floating in mid-air did not rotate and combine as usual, but instead shuddered violently, and all the light went out in an instant.

"Pfft—" Luo Shu's face turned pale, and he spat out a mouthful of blood onto the doll in his arms. The doll turned to ashes, and his whole aura weakened.

Ji Xinghui's pupils constricted. He stepped forward to support her and quickly pulled out a healing artifact from his pocket.

The divination failed, and it was a complete and devastating failure.

This situation only illustrates one thing: the answer to this question contains a causal weight that far exceeds the limits that the Luoshu (Lo Shu Square) can bear. Even the bizarre game itself cannot or is unwilling to give a direct answer.

In a sense, the failed divination actually saved Luo Shu's life, because if she had forced the divination, she would have paid the price not only with internal injuries, but with her entire lifespan.

"Captain...I..." Luo Shu's breathing was a little unsteady.

"It's my fault," Ji Xinghui shook his head, "I underestimated her importance."

The game "Myriad Races and Mysteries" is never short of powerful individuals.

Some claim to be on par with gods, some claim to possess divine power, and some races boast of being descendants of gods, but no one has ever dared to truly call themselves "gods."

He once asked Luo Shu to divine the origin of his race's ancestor, a top expert who was also hailed as "comparable to gods." Luo Shu not only obtained the answer, but the energy consumed was less than half of what he had used to divine "who is the most benevolent."

But now, simply asking whether "Miss Number One" is a god has triggered such a terrifying backlash; this is no longer a matter of strength or weakness.

Ji Xinghui pondered for a moment, then took out a communication talisman and directly transmitted a message into Luo Shu's mind.

A look of understanding appeared on Luo Shu's pale face. "The last time."

She was reminding Ji Xinghui, and also warning herself.

Seeing Ji Xing nod solemnly, Luo Shu then reassembled the Tarot cards and asked in a more roundabout way:

"Please tell me, among all the 'guests' in this villa, what is the name of the race to which the one with the highest bloodline rank belongs? If the real name carries too much karma, a code name will suffice."

This time, the question bypassed "Ran" and "He," and instead broadened its scope to include everyone.

The tarot cards remained silent in the air for a few seconds, then golden light flowed slowly.
