On my second playthrough, they were full of malice towards me.

After a series of dragon roars, the red dragon, now completely tamed by the dragon knight, even began to take the initiative to attack.

The Guardian class is always the most competitive and focused on rankings, and the Dragon Girl is no exception. It's clear that no matter which battlefield she's on, Jiu You always wants to be the strongest and number one.

"Lord Ash, between me and Sthime, who is more..."

"Of course it's you!"

The dragon knight in the video answered before the other could finish speaking.

After all, this is an easy question, especially in this special setting, so of course you should praise whoever you're with.

Right?

Chapter 162 I was here first!

If Liao Ji previously thought that Sciutia's corruption in the dream was exaggerated and deliberately orchestrated by the dark elf behind the scenes, he is now wavering.

Liao Ji did not doubt the authenticity of "Illusion Dream," which recreates a character's past experiences in the form of a "dream within a dream." After all, Zero had used a similar "data reshaping" ability back in the Sea Sand Bar to reproduce everything that had happened there.

As long as enough data is collected and there is matching computing power, both the past and the future can be predicted for intelligent machines.

Liao Ji originally intended to re-enter the Dream Realm just to find out a little bit of information about Styutia, but now he can hardly imagine Styutia's mental state at this moment.

Seemingly sensing Liao Ji's needs, the maid, acting as his assistant, immediately took action, and the next moment Liao Ji was instantly transported from the God's-eye view to the first-person perspective.

"So thoughtful. I've switched the dream-viewing mode for you. In this mode, you can not only experience the dream from Styutia's perspective, but also hear her inner thoughts at the same time."

By synchronizing the protagonist's senses from a first-person perspective, users can achieve an immersive experience as if they were personally experiencing it. This is why Fantasy Dream has become the most popular and exciting entertainment product in the Mechanical Alliance.

The maid's V-shaped dream is now much more powerful. Liao Ji can sense all of Sthija's emotions, and even hear the nun's inner monologues.

From the moment the crystal ball was first sent to Styutia, she felt a sense of relief followed by joy and excitement.

[If you can find the time to send something, it means things in China are probably over, right? That's great!]

【I'm so happy that Lord Ash and Sister Jiuyou are still thinking of me!】

[Huh? There are so many encryption restrictions inside. Did Sister Jiuyou make these sealing techniques? So Sister Jiuyou has also grown and improved in terms of techniques. I... I need to work hard too! I can't let everyone fall behind!]

[Do this, then do this again! It's open! I can't wait to see what's inside!]

As the images unfold, Sthimitia begins to experience confusion and bewilderment, before finally realizing what it all means.

What is this?

[Sister Jiuyou and Lord Ashes? What are they doing?]

[Wait, wait a minute! Sister Jiuyou, why are you even including Lord Ashes?! Could it be that they're going to...? No! Impossible! Sister Jiuyou is such an emotional idiot, she should be the most backward one!]

Uh

Well, Liao Ji never expected that this was how Styutia viewed the Dragon Girl in her heart.

[It's okay, it's okay. Didn't I also decide to help Sister Jiuyou? Now that Sister Jiuyou has handled it herself, I... I should be happy! Yes, I should... I should be happy for Sister Jiuyou. Happy!]

[Besides, I was Ash's first, and the first is always the most memorable and unforgettable. So even if Sister Jiuyou catches up, she will never be able to shake my position in Ash's heart!]

With several deep breaths and self-reassurance from the young nun, Sthiuthia's emotions miraculously stabilized.

It's clear that the restored contract is very effective, and the nuns in the confessional are also very effective at purifying the contamination; otherwise, if we had kept the original Styutia, she probably would have gone berserk.

That's it, keep going, Tia!

Unfortunately, Liao Ji's encouragement could not be conveyed, and the trend that had just started to improve took a sharp turn for the worse in the next moment.

[But why did Sister Jiuyou specifically send me something like this?]

[Could it be that Sister Jiuyou found out about what happened between me and Lord Ash, and that I tricked her using the Alliance? Is she now seeking revenge?]

[No, no, no! Sister Jiuyou is definitely not that kind of person. She must have just sent it by mistake. There must be some error in the process.]

Just as Sthiuthia was thinking this, the filmmakers, as if they had already grasped the nun's thoughts, quickly moved on to the classic scenes in the edited version, including but not limited to:

Lord Ash, will Styutia be angry?

If you're going to seek thrills, then go all the way!

Of course it's you!

I'm sorry, Tia, but why... my body won't obey me? I don't want to, but...

Give me Tia's share too, Lord Ash!

The appearance of these fragments shattered all of Tia's previous attempts to comfort herself.

What first time is the most unforgettable? What about the idea that you are number one? When Lord Ash is with Jiu You, where is she in his eyes? Where is she even a little bit in his eyes!

Styutia, kneeling on the ground, lowered her head helplessly, her bangs covering half her face, and the nun's hands gripping the hem of her skirt tightly.

Why...why did it turn out like this?

[Five hundred years later, we finally found Lord Ash again. Back in the Sealed City, we had reconciled with Sister Jiuyou, truly opening our hearts to her for the first time and establishing our own alliance. These were two such happy and joyful things, so why... why did they turn out like this when they overlapped?]

[Clearly, I was here first!]

[Whether it's a kiss, a hug, or even Ash's first time, it was all me! I was first!]

From Liao Jineng's first-person perspective, he could clearly sense that Tia's anger was not simply a matter of being angry, but rather that she was caught in a struggle. On one side was her best sister, Jiu You, whom she regarded as family and an older sister, while on the other side, she had to watch as Jiu You was about to take Ash away from her little by little.

Two complex emotions intertwined, like a chemical reaction, and then Liao Ji suddenly sensed that Styutia was starting to act a little strange.

Specifically, while Styutia had previously refused to watch those images or hear those sounds, she was now staring at them more and more intently.

Immediately afterwards, the nun's breathing also began to quicken.

Styutia's eyes, which had previously held a variety of emotions such as anger, confusion, struggle, and bewilderment, now seemed to be completely defeated by another, more powerful emotion, and a blush crept up her cheeks.

Jiuyou is the person she likes, and so is Lord Ash.

What's done is done, and she can't stop it.

To calm herself down, and also to prevent that "evil version of herself" from resurfacing, Sthiuthia chose to... rather than wallow in impotent rage and become corrupted.

Styutia will consider other options after making her choice.

It can only be said that when people are caught up in things that are difficult to think about or that they don't want to think about, they tend to run away from them, and Styutia is clearly doing just that right now.

Upon arriving at this point, Liao Ji quickly instructed the maid to switch the perspective back.

First-person perspective is no longer acceptable.

Fast forward through the dream sequence, and a full hour later, the fully dressed Styutia emerged from the confessional. This undoubtedly surprised and bewildered the high-ranking members of the Holy Church, as this was the first time their goddess had revealed her true form.

It's easy to see that the rewards are indeed effective, and the post-coital period isn't just for men.

Afterwards, Styutia appeared normal, spoke normally, and briefly explained to the members of her church that she was leaving temporarily to go to the Dragon Kingdom. With Maria's arrangement, a private plane was arranged in less than ten minutes. After being given "optimized" holy light by Styutia, it headed straight for the Dragon Kingdom at several times the speed.

Thus, Styutia's dream came to a complete end.

Liao Ji: "."

"86, is this dream of yours real?" Liao Ji couldn't help but doubt it because it was too abstract.

The maid answered this very quickly.

"In response to Master, according to the database analysis of 'Zero,' during the five hundred years you were gone, Lady Sthija, due to her near-obsessive longing and lust for you, engaged in self-pleasure the most among the five ladies. This is because only in this way can the goddess alleviate her inner repression and pain, and gain a brief moment of peace. Incidentally, the second on the self-pleasure ranking is Lady Reina, and the third is..."

"Stop! Stop! That's enough!!" Liao Ji interrupted the maid with a dark expression on his face.

What the hell is this self-charging leaderboard?!

Liao Jizhen wanted to find out what state Zero had been in over the past five hundred years, otherwise why would such a bizarre list have been created?

The intelligence gathered on Huanmeng's side is almost complete. Liao Ji confirmed the movements of Styutia. The bad news is that the nun has indeed arrived. The good news is that Styutia calmed down a bit before arriving.

Liao Ji: "."

"grass!"

Afterwards, Liao Ji instructed 86 to leave the Dream Realm. Here, Liao Ji was slightly prepared to be intercepted by the black-skinned elf and taken to the Turbid Space, just like last time. However, after a flash of white light, with a feeling of floating, Liao Ji opened his eyes again and found himself inside the City Hall.

As usual, Liao Ji immediately called Yilin over, then ignored the girl's protests and used the Touch of Turbidity to perform an insertion and removal experiment on her to confirm that he had returned to reality. Only then was Liao Ji completely at ease.

Just in case, Liao Ji gave the entire city hall and the sealed city a holiday under the pretext of celebrating the removal of the curse, cleared out the personnel in the city hall, and did not accept any business today.

Later, the maid who knew the truth was sent by Liao Ji to send away the others around him, and took Irene and A Xue to the next room. Anyway, they couldn't help much, and coming here would only be to deliver casualties to Tia.

Finally, Liao Ji returned to Long Niang's room. Looking at Long Niang, who was lying in bed and blinking at him as he had planned, Liao Ji felt that everything was ready.

This is his decisive battleground; tonight's outcome, success or failure, hinges on this one move!

Chapter 163 Why are you so skilled at this?

As the helicopter glided through the night sky above the sealed city, the people on board, having lost all patience to wait for it to land, leaped into the air and transformed into streaks of light as they arrived in the city.

Because of the "contract," Styutia could pinpoint Liao Ji's general direction, but as for Liao Ji's exact location, she still needed to...

Ok?

Styutia's expression suddenly froze, because she sensed that just now, Lord Ash had used her Holy Light ability, which immediately locked onto the direction: the City Hall.

Just as she was about to move, the sensation of holy light began to appear one after another. Judging from its rapid frequency, it was as if Lord Ash had encountered something extremely difficult and had no choice but to use holy light so frantically.

This immediately made Styutia, who had degenerated from "hunting" and was originally there to "torture" him, tense and worried. Compared to the safety of Lord Ash, her original purpose was insignificant and was immediately forgotten.

Styutia transformed into a beam of holy light and rushed straight to the city hall. When she anxiously arrived at Liao Ji's room, before the nun could break down the door, the sound coming from inside forced Styutia to stop in her tracks.

because

"Lord Ashes"

"Jiuyou is... dying."

"Lord Ash, please stop! Stop!"

Hearing the familiar voice coming from the room, who else could it be but the Dragon Girl? Styutia's eyes, which had been shining brightly, gradually darkened.

The thought that she had just been worried about Lord Ash and even intended to talk things out with Jiu You made her...

What dealt Styutia the final blow, making it impossible for her to continue eavesdropping outside the door, was...
