Douluo Continent: Starting with controlling Ning Rongrong and establishing the Holy Cult

What is she saying, and why is she saying these things?

Ning Rongrong closed her eyes and fell backward.

Although the Eight Spider Spears still showed signs of movement, they were ultimately insufficient to support Ning Rongrong's body.

Is it over...?

Is she going to die?

No, she won't die. The Holy God can rewind time. If we can rewind to that night in the Great Soul Arena, we can do it all over again—

But what if the Holy Spirit abandons me?

Ning Rongrong recalled what the Silver Dragon King had said, and for the first time, she began to fear that the Holy God would abandon her.

This feeling is indescribably wonderful.

She fell to the ground. The ground was cold.

Through the ground, you can still hear the sounds outside; they are still engaged in fierce fighting.

"Damn it, Uncle Bone, can't we break through his defenses?"

"I can't break through it at all; this space restricts my attacks!"

It seems that my father and his companions have also lost ground.

If we hadn't called two people...

More and more memories flooded Ning Rongrong's mind, flashing by like a revolving lantern, announcing her imminent death—

-

"do you died?"

Ning Rongrong couldn't tell whose voice it was anymore. Zhao Asi, Zhao Xiaoya, or someone else?

-

"Is this world really that dangerous? Even with Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong here, she'll still die if I'm not around?"

Is it Grandpa Jian? Ning Rongrong made this connection out of nowhere.

-

"never mind……"

……

Lu Ma sat in front of the computer, looking at the screen of the game "Black Douluo".

It is 4 a.m. now.

Not long ago.

In the dead of night, Lu Ma felt his brain buzzing, his chaotic thoughts colliding, and his head throbbing violently. He wanted to break free, but he couldn't do it at all.

This symptom persisted until 3:30 a.m., when he was so mentally exhausted that he had no energy to generate new thoughts, and then—he woke up.

When I opened my eyes, I was greeted by a pitch-black room.

He doesn't have the habit of drawing the curtains when he sleeps; rather, he prefers to sleep without drawing the curtains.

When he opened his eyes, it was still dark and the moon had not yet completely set.

The first thing I do after opening my eyes is pick up my phone and check for any new messages.

There are actually a few.

First, the customer service of the game that stopped updating sent him a contract change clause. In short, he no longer needed to stream the game, and the client would pay him his salary in one lump sum.

Next came the documents sent by the dolphin.

"Are these two officials' work schedules really normal?" Lu Ma muttered to himself.

[Black Douluo alpha0.2 patch.zip, 17.1MB]

[Patch Instructions, 1KB]

He wasn't really in the mood for a nap, so he turned on his computer and downloaded the patch. Besides fixing some known bugs, this patch mainly added three things.

The character controls have been optimized. Additionally, the AI ​​system has been updated to allow for a wider range of character actions.

The quest system has been improved, and up to three quests can be viewed on the left side of the game interface.

A simulator mode, also known as a system-assisted gameplay mode, has been added. When the player is not present, the game will automatically simulate what happens next and present it to the player in text form.

When Lu Ma saw the simulator gameplay, he seriously doubted whether this gameplay had always been there and that it was just a bug before, which is why he was faced with Zhao Wuji as soon as he logged in.

Overall, Lu Ma was quite satisfied.

The shader is ready. Lu Ma clicks "Continue Game," and the screen goes black for a moment, then white text appears.

[Day 0, the Grand Arena event is over. You're sleepy, so you go straight to bed.]

[On Day 1, Shrek Academy gave you a day off, and you decided to cultivate. Your mental strength has improved.]

On the second day, you decide to join your companions in hunting spirit beasts for Oscar and head to the Star Dou Great Forest. Your physical abilities have improved.

[On the third day, you entered the Star Dou Great Forest, triggering a special mission event and accepting the mission: Sabotage the Third Saintess Ritual. Your mental strength, physical fitness, soul skill proficiency, and comprehension have all improved.]

On the fourth day, you returned to Shrek Academy. Not tired, you decided to immediately complete the task of disrupting the Third Saintess Ritual, and you put it into action.

To increase the success rate, you specifically invited Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong to join the sabotage operation, bringing them to the site of the third Saintess Ceremony.

[You have been attacked. The crisis has unleashed your body's potential, and the Eight Spider Lances state has been activated instead of being unavailable.]

【you are dead. 】

"Um……"

Lu Ma stared at the three large characters "You are dead" on the screen, momentarily at a loss for words.

The system was using someone else's character, and the character died.

"Dead?" Lu Ma squinted, still somewhat incredulous. "Is this world really that dangerous? Even with Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong here, she would still die if I wasn't around?"

"never mind……"

He sighed.

At the bottom of the screen, a line of small text appeared:

Click any button to view available save files. Simulated saves do not use save slots, and only one can be saved at a time.

Lu Ma clicked the left mouse button.

[Readable Save File 1: When near death (HP: 1, obtain all rewards earned during the simulation)]

[Readable Save File 2: Day 4 (Eight Spider Lances are unavailable), with added random factors; subsequent events are unknown. PS: The world line has changed.]

……

[Other: Use your saved archive.]

Lu Ma had read through all the simulation save files and understood their general meaning.

During the simulation, after each reward is obtained, an additional simulation save file will be created. If the corresponding save file is selected, subsequent rewards will not be available, and the event may not occur.

In this situation, he only had two options left: near death or the fourth day. Before that, he wouldn't be able to accept the third Saintess Ritual quest, which would result in a significant loss of rewards. As for his save file, Lu Ma didn't even consider it—wouldn't that be a waste of the development team's meticulous design? Besides, he had no desire to go to the Star Dou Great Forest; he was more interested in seeing why he had died.

Therefore, he chose option one.

The screen froze, followed by a glass-shattering effect, with the entire interface breaking into pieces that fell away.

The game interface also appeared.

The reddish screen and the pitch-black health bar were reminders to Lu Ma that his character was about to die.

And what about the characters?

Ning Rongrong lay on the ground, next to a purple, transparent stone.

Where am I?

Lu Ma frowned, but didn't think much of it and directly opened the character panel.

Ning Rongrong, 12 years old, Level 33, Soul Master.

[Martial Soul: Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda (+2)]

[Physical fitness level 26, mental strength level 35]

[External Soul Bone: Eight Spider Lances (+1)]

"Isn't this physical fitness enhancement a bit too generous?"

Lu Ma was overjoyed. The next second, he switched to his backpack and took out a health potion.

Chapter 45 Lu Ma's Counterattack

Zhao Xiaoya watched as Ning Rongrong's body collapsed, ending the Martial Soul Possession.

Her martial soul is bone, which is her original martial soul. Although it is said that she ended the martial soul possession, it is not actually visible.

In her view, Ning Rongrong had lost the power to resist.

She considered herself a kind-hearted person, so before Ning Rongrong died, she still revealed the truth about the saintess ritual.

Most people only know the first two steps to becoming a saintess; her grandfather did, and so did the person in charge. Only after completing the first two steps will the third step appear in her mind.

Unfortunately, the third process was extremely lengthy. She plotted against her grandfather, trying to end it all sooner, but she miscalculated.

He escaped outside the space and then back inside, finally managing to kill Zhao Asi through a clever scheme, only to find that the old man had only used a clone.

She wondered why the smoke wouldn't dissipate and why the purple flames were still burning.

"Once I get out, I will avenge your father and the others. You must thank me properly up there."

She smiled, a very natural smile.

Then she froze.

Ning Rongrong somehow managed to pull out a bottle of red liquid and poured it into her mouth.
