"..."

Ye Qingxian tried to pull her legs out, but she was still trapped by the fog.

"Oh, I didn't notice that just now. It seems I can't talk to you for hundreds of years."

Yunia took two steps forward, reached out and poked Ye Qingxian's cheek, directly stating Ye Qingxian's health problem: "You probably won't live much longer."

"How...how did you know?!"

"I am a spirit of the dead, and I am very sensitive to life."

"I see... wait a minute?"

Keep in mind that she is currently in the game world, while her real body is infected.

How could the NPCs in the game have figured this out? Or was it just a coincidence?

"Your asteroides have already developed, and you have at most less than 40 days to live."

"Star psoriasis?"

A new term has emerged.

Ye Qingxian hadn't believed that Yunia could see her condition until Yunia said she had a 40-day life expectancy, then she was convinced.

"This condition is caused by accidentally inhaling debris from the Star of Calamity. That debris will multiply in your lungs and gnaw at your body's organs."

"What...are you talking about?"

“The Star of Calamity.” Yunia pointed to the sky. “It will streak across the heavens every thousand years, scattering debris that will cause terrible disasters.”

"Is this a disaster that exists on the continent of Faya? But I'm a player..."

"Player?"

"I come from another world."

“Hmm.” Yunia nodded. “Perhaps it was people from your world who took the fragments back, or perhaps people from the continent of Faya once visited your world.”

"How is this possible?"

How long has it been since the launch of "Faya Continent"? This world is a game world created by humans.

Ye Qingxian's thoughts began to waver. The NPCs she met were flesh and blood, each with a different personality and their own unique story.

She used to tell herself that these NPCs were made of data, but now she increasingly felt...

Ye Qingxian felt guilty as she recalled the hurtful things she had said to Esther.

Was my tone too harsh? It seems I even angered Esther.

However, if Estia hadn't dragged her in, she wouldn't have had such an emotional breakdown after learning that the instance was closed.

"Don't just stand there, let me explain it to you properly."

Suddenly, Yunia chopped Ye Qingxian on the head with a chop.

"Ouch! That hurts!"

“This concerns your life, you must listen carefully.” Before giving a detailed explanation, Yunia added, “Please cherish life and don’t commit suicide casually.”

Her feelings weren't written on her face, but you could tell from the angry, round face made of white mist beside her.

Ye Qingxian's previous suicide attempt had made her quite angry.

After Ye Qingxian decided to be a good student who listened attentively, Yunia began to explain the knowledge of asteroides in a long and rambling manner. Although she still used an emotionless tone, Ye Qingxian listened very carefully for the first time.

Stellar psoriasis is difficult to cure and has a very high mortality rate after onset, but the incubation period is very long, and it usually develops within 20 years after infection.

Before the onset of the disease, symptoms such as difficulty breathing, coughing up blood, and lung pain may appear, leading to long-term weakness and illness in infected individuals.

The only benefit of asteroides is that they grant infected individuals some abilities, but unfortunately, most infected individuals die before they have a chance to use these abilities.

Ye Qingxian became more and more excited as she listened. The symptoms of her astrosis perfectly matched the physical ailments she had suffered from since childhood. It was not lung failure, nor lung cancer; there were no corresponding symptoms for her illness on Earth.

"Judging from the current situation, you should be showing symptoms."

"Yes... please explain more, please!"

In reality, Ye Qingxian needs to rely on virtual reality devices to sustain her life, but now she suddenly realizes that the game "Faya Continent" is not simple.

Is this really a game world? She no longer held onto her previous belief.

All signs indicate that this place is more like another world.

But everything is data-driven, making it impossible to explain.

Is there a cure for star-shaped psoriasis?

"Yes, but it's very difficult for ordinary people to do."

"Could you please tell me?"

Ye Qingxian felt a surge of hope. The fact that the NPCs in the game could see her illness and even knew about it meant that she could find more clues in the game and that finding a cure was very possible.

"Which god do you know?" Yunia asked.

"what?"

"Which of the gods in this world are you most familiar with? You can ask them to use their divine power to purify the stardust within you."

"I don't know any of them..."

Even the strongest players in the game still can't defeat the elite town guards of the NPCs, let alone get involved with gods. So far, the word "god" only appears in quest text and belongs to legend.

“That’s normal. Estia is one of the strongest people on the continent, but she doesn’t know any gods either.”

"Are there any other methods?"

"The true form of the Calamity Star appears once every thousand years, so we need to seize the opportunity."

"When will it appear next?"

"983 years later."

"..."

Ye Qingxian fell silent.

“None of these methods are practical, and even the most likely method would be extremely difficult for you.”

"What method?"

Ye Qingxian was willing to do anything as long as there was hope, because it was better than slowly waiting to die.

"Dragon's tears have the effect of alleviating the symptoms of acrostic psoriasis."

"Dragon's tears?"

Ye Qingxian immediately thought of Estia, whose race was dragons.

"You thought of Estia?"

Did Esther cry?

"I had it when I was a child."

"Well……"

Ye Qingxian couldn't believe that the key to curing her illness was actually the dragon's tears.

The methods mentioned earlier were completely impossible for her, but the dragon's tears...

Will she be able to get Estia's tears?

"I can't continue talking to you."

Suddenly, as if she were hiding from someone, Yunia hurriedly took a few steps back, letting the white mist envelop her body.

"If you're a smart person, then don't announce my existence."

After uttering those words, Yunia's body vanished into the white mist before Ye Qingxian's eyes.

"You really are here."

Ye Qingxian heard Estya's voice, but it seemed to be coming from the sky, so she looked up—

With the help of the silver wings on her back, Estia slowly descended to the ground.

So she can fly... Of course, how could a dragon not fly?

"Are you just standing here in a daze?"

"I...I accidentally ended up here."

Ye Qingxian didn't mention Yunia's existence, but at the same time she was a little confused. Wasn't Yunia the boss of the Netherworld Dragon Abyss? Why was she avoiding Esteria?

Tell me if you have any difficulties, and I will try my best to help you.

As she said this, Esther told herself that this was the last time she would lower herself.

If Ye Qingxian continues as before, then don't blame her for being impolite.

You should know that in each other's eyes, they both have red names above their heads.

It's already quite rare for opposing camps to be able to speak amicably.

"I'm sorry I yelled at you before. I was a bit emotional at the time." Ye Qingxian apologized for what had happened.

"Ok?"

Ye Qingxian's behavior surprised Esther, but it also improved her opinion of Ye Qingxian somewhat.

“But that doesn’t mean I have no complaints about you… You kidnapped me and now I’m going to be locked up here for 30 days.”

"Hey, have you forgotten that we're enemies?"

Esther began to think Ye Qingxian was naive again. Didn't this girl realize the difference in their identities?

As an enemy, what difference does it make if she cruelly tortures and kills Ye Qingxian?

Although Estella was unaware of the history when humans participated in the attack on the Dragon Kingdom as accomplices a thousand years ago, she did not believe that humans had no blood on their hands.

There is no need for mercy when dealing with enemies.

But now, Estia has put aside her hatred and is entrenched in the Deep Abyss, waiting for players to challenge her, entirely because of a bet she made with the world AI.

The world's AI is the only entity that can tell her the truth about what happened back then.
