Star Iron: Imaginary numbers? Dude, I play with quantum reconstruction.

“But you just attempted suicide. Does that mean you’re addicted to that painful feeling?” Xingxiao asked with a smile.

"I'm just testing it out. I can't exactly fight for three months straight, can I? If I punch her, she'll just get hit all over the place."

March 7th was quietly observing the situation when she was suddenly brought up. "Hey, how did this get dragged into us again?!"

Hua Wu made a downward pressing gesture, "Alright, stop arguing."

“Giovanni, come out. If you don’t come out, the one on my back will send you back to the expensive graveyard in Aprilon.”

Giovanni, somewhat embarrassed, stepped out from the back of the container with a touch of humor. "Ahem, long time no see, Mr. Wei. It's been a year, and I never expected to meet you like this. It's a pity you can't play in this match."

Hua Wu pulled out the badge from the Black Tower Space Station. "I already have the badge, why can't I play? Why not play Ether Duel instead of Mortal Kombat?"

"Uh, starting last year, those new rules for Ether Showdown..."

"I've seen it. Give me a reason why I can't participate in the game."

Giovanni said in a serious tone, "You're going too far."

Hua Wu paused for a moment, "Ahem... Good reason. Then I should be able to find a few substitute players, right?"

"That's not how you exploit loopholes."

Xingxiao understood; the masked man was related to Hua Wu, but not by much.

"So you're the agent for this game? And you're wearing a mask? Never mind, that's not important. Give me those qualification badges. Otherwise, I'll have my Legion's Havoc Vanguard steal them one by one. You've turned the iron hooves of 'Destruction' into clowns in the game without permission."

"You're very bold."

Giovanni felt he shouldn't have met Sambo; how could he have known that this kind of little game would attract this type of person to play it!

The original plan was abandoned, so we can only take it one step at a time and see if any unexpected surprises occur.

"The qualification badges are not in my hands, but in the hands of the champion candidates in each region."

"You're lying to me. I hate being lied to the most." Xingxiao said, about to slap Giovanni so he could experience Sambo's spiral ascension service.

At the last moment, Giovanni looked at Hua Wu, as if to say, "Aren't you going to do anything about it?"

Hua Wu still had the same expression, except that the corners of his mouth turned up by 2.5 pixels.

"Snapped----"

With a slap, the red and white mask transformed into imaginary particles and instantly took flight, disappearing to who-knows-where.

"People who are violent are not suitable for my game. I suggest you quit the game."

Giovanni appeared on the other side, still wearing the mask.

He just used his substitute to block a wave of damage, otherwise he would have been seriously injured.

Xing turned around, intending to watch the drama unfold, and thought, "Sure enough, this Giovanni isn't just any ordinary Masked Fool. His reflexes are incredible..."

Giovanni explained with a smile: "This sharp reflex is something I learned from playing Etherfront. In Etherfront, you need to cooperate and coordinate, and you also need to seize the key moments in the game. Otherwise, if I lose because of slow reaction, I won't be able to sleep."

Hearing this relaxed tone, March 7th retorted, "Even in this situation, he still has the mind to advertise for the game. He's definitely not your average Masked Fool."

Xingxiao reached out and said, "Give me that thing. This is your last chance."

Giovanni calmly shook his head. "Madam, it's not that I'm stingy. It's just that this is really against the rules. How about this, I have a position that's perfect for you. How about you be the second expert player?"

The word "second" immediately reminded Xingxiao of Fenfeng; she felt like he was insulting her. "Who's number one! Why should I be second?"

"Hehe, it's a secret for now."

Chapter 189 Hua Wu: You deserve a beating! Xing Xiao: Yeah, come on.

Hua Wu smiled: "A secret? As far as I know..."

Giovanni made a shushing gesture. "Shh, if you know, please don't ruin it for the sake of my play. If you don't know, then don't speculate here."

Xing scoffed, "A master player? Can he be stronger than me who modifies the data?"

"Of course not, because cheating is not part of the game rules."

"So I also have to find that representative, just like these two kids?" Xingxiao turned to look at Huawu, then put his head back on it.

Hua Wu felt a weight on his shoulder and turned to say, "My dear baby, don't you have a neck? I made you play this game so that you could cultivate your character."

"You finally got me addicted to you, and now you want me to quit? It's not that simple. I'll just take a little while."

Hua Wu now feels that memory is the most difficult part of his life, and he regrets not learning more. He only learned a little bit, and now he's messed up.

Xing nudged March 7th and whispered, "Let's retreat. Brother Hua has already tied down the old woman. Let's run!"

March 7th suddenly remembered their main quest, "Wait, didn't we come here to play a game at the beginning? Our badges seem to be..."

Xingxiao made a shushing gesture. "Shh—you can say whatever you want. I'm not that scary. Actually, I'm just like him. Although I'm unpredictable and sometimes I'll randomly send a few unlucky people away without saying a word, you guys are the exception."

Xingxiao looked into Xing's blue pupils and said, "It's so similar... especially you. I really like that impulsiveness in you."

I'm numb. Who understands this feeling of being locked in?

(Hua Wu: I understand better than you what it feels like to be locked onto by her.)

Xing laughed and tried to dispel the mark, "Ah...haha, I'm so embarrassed, how could I let you have your eye on me? Look at our Brother Hua, so handsome and dashing, please don't have any designs on me, okay? I'm so shy."

“The more afraid you are of running away, the more you resemble him from the past,” Xingxiao said, pointing to her chin as she remained prone.

"Ahem, kids, this kind of passive attitude towards the game isn't good—"

A voice, reminiscent of a theatrical performance, came from behind. Xing looked at the emerging Master Gongshu and asked in confusion, "There's another expert? Weren't you afraid of the commotion just now?"

"Let me, Gongshu Liang, see who has such an air of superiority? Oh my gosh... it's... General Fierce Tiger?!"

Gongshu Liang was stunned. Because of the plane crash at the Construction Bureau, he had taken on a side job. Then, since it seemed like there had been an explosion at Liuyun Ferry, he decided to check what it was, only to find that a tiger had spawned in his work area.

"General Tiger, you have such refined tastes! And you even brought three beauties with you. You are truly young and promising!"

"I never expected that even you, the impatient nemesis, would be drawn to this little game. Coming to this 'Victory Paradise' to face me is truly exhilarating!"

Xing listened to the accent and, for some reason, felt a strange sense of irritation. "What dialect of Luofu is this? It sounds so long and drawn out."

Upon hearing this, Xingxiao realized that the target had delivered himself to his doorstep. "You old man, you're that candidate? Hand over your badge."

Hua Wu flicked Xing Xiao on the forehead, "Be polite."

Xingxiao savored the sensation on her forehead. A plan formed in her mind, and she said contemptuously, "You old geezer, hand over that badge!"

Hua Wu: ?

Upon hearing this, Hua Wu reflexively slapped him, saying, "You deserve a beating!"

Xingxiao's left cheek flushed slightly, the burning sensation making her feel a little lightheaded. "The pressure is just right, enough to make my cheeks turn slightly red. Hmm, let's continue."

star:......

March 7th: ......

Gongshu: ? ? ?

Hua Wu suddenly realized that Xing Xiao was out of his mind. "Damn it, I forgot, you did this on purpose?"

Xingxiao gently tapped Huawu's shoulder twice with his chin. "Hmm, if you hadn't been so reluctant to hit me, I wouldn't have had to do this."

Gongshu Liang was a little confused. Is this how young people play nowadays?

"Well, I, Gongshu Liang, have lived for several hundred years. I thought that competing with young people would allow me to rediscover the feeling of my youth. But I never expected... that youth is like this now. Come, fight me. If you win, this badge will naturally be yours."

Xing was about to take a step when he discovered that Hua Wu had already taken a step.

Xingxiao on his back was like a conjoined twin, as if welded to his back.

Xing took out her phone and typed to March 7: [I feel like this pairing is okay to ship, but it's a bit risky. We can't discuss it.]

March 7th replied to the text on her phone: [Seriously? Speaking of which, besides Hua Wu, is there anyone on this train who can keep this Great Khan in check?]

Xing: [How about we let the Grand Prince get on the carriage? I don't think she's that dangerous.]

March 7th: [Are you crazy? Have you been brainwashed by her? Just because she gave you a little destructive power, you have these kinds of thoughts?]

March 7th: [Have you forgotten that bunch of doomsday beasts and phantom soldiers?]

Xing: [By the way, I feel like I could bring over those destructive creations you mentioned.]

March 7th: [What? You...you've become the legion's vanguard?]

......

"Master Gongshu, you should have the construction plans from the Ministry of Works, right?"

Gongshu Liang was filled with anticipation and surprise. "Eh? What is General Meng Hu planning to do? Could it be that the Shence Mansion is planning to assign the reconstruction task to the Construction Bureau?!"

"Shence Mansion? I'll arrange that. Jing Yuan is just a sleeping general with his eyes closed; he doesn't know anything about construction engineering. Give me the blueprints, and I'll personally go and fix it later."

Upon hearing Hua Wu speak of Jing Yuan in this way, Gongshu Liang said in surprise, "This is no joke. Young man, don't boast. Fighting against evil is your specialty, but the planning and construction of Luofu... General Jing Yuan is still a cut above."

"When did this general ever boast?"

Xingxiao interjected with dissatisfaction, "Two months and one day ago, you said you loved me, but you left me the next day."

(Hua Wu: 艸.)

Gongshu Liang's eyes narrowed. "Whose daughter is this? General, listen to me. You are still young. Don't go around flirting with women and ruining their lives. If word gets out, we in Luofu will lose face."

"That's enough, are you going to fix it or not?" Hua Wu said, opening the door.

"Repairs are necessary, but I'm a man of principle, and an etheric duel is a must. I've been here all morning, and there's not a soul in sight. How incredibly boring!"

Chapter 190 Star: What a cheesy couple of lunatics.

"Go have fun, I won a championship last year," Hua Wu said, waving his hand with a smug look on his face.

"Oh? Your command is my guiding light. Wherever the lighthouse shines, I will go."

Gongshu: ......

"General... listen up, I won't hold back for any reason! I'll show you what it means to be an old fox with a spicier tongue!"

Gongshu summoned the Ether Spirit, the Gongzao Si family bucket, and the Luofu Elbow Strike King standing in the main position, which once dared to put even the Shence General to sleep for a round.

"Is this a declaration of war? I understand. Go, bring me victory, and bestow upon him destruction."

With a wave of his hand, Xingxiao summoned the modified Dimensional Pig King to the scene.
