Chat group, if you have anything to say to my Holy Sword,

"You're still complaining? Hurry up and think of a solution!" Kevin shouted loudly because the wind was blowing so loudly.

"I need to get used to the magic of this world; I can't use magic for now!" the Faded One cried out in terror.

Fujimaru Ritsuka barely managed to turn her head and saw several unfamiliar figures also falling from the sky—a black-haired youth expressionlessly letting himself fall, but his gaze thoughtfully scrutinized her and Mash.

And further away—

"Wow! Is this what freefall feels like?!" a purple-haired girl shouted excitedly. As soon as she finished shouting, a pair of wings appeared behind her, carrying her and a gray-haired girl in his arms who had her eyes tightly closed and whose face was pale.

Elena rode her broomstick with Remyane, and the four of them soared through the air.

As Elena watched the four people fall from the sky, she raised her staff, intending to help them up.

The four of them had already taken matters into their own hands. Without thinking, Kevin hugged Xiling, while the Faded One clung to Xiling even earlier. Dan Heng, expressionless, placed a hand on Xiling's shoulder.

Xi Ling felt the heaviness brought by her group members. Could this be the Gravity Boy?

Putting aside her chaotic thoughts, Xiling stopped in mid-air and casually scooped up the two people who were stunned beside her.

The speed at which everyone fell suddenly slowed down, and they finally floated lightly to the ground.

After everyone had arrived, Xiling looked left and right before saying, "Why are you all here?"

Kevin said seriously, "Working is nothing to be ashamed of."

The faded one replied just as seriously, "I'm here to freeload off the rewards."

"Saving the world? Of course, the savior has to be there," Jiuxiao said with a smile, rubbing his nose as he put Luo Tianyi down at Penglai Temple.

Luo Tianyi scratched her head sheepishly. "I had a feeling everyone would come together, and if I didn't, I'd feel a little out of place."

"Is this the place described in the mission, Babylon?" Danheng pondered, stroking his chin.

Still seated on her broom, Elena frowned as she looked down at the ground below. She warned the group below, "Something like magical beasts is surrounding us. Be prepared!"

The sound from the sky silenced Fujimaru Ritsuka and Matthew, who were about to ask something.

Almost the instant Elena finished speaking, a foul-smelling gust of wind swept over them.

From all directions, countless monsters surged out from behind the sand dunes, their fangs bared, saliva dripping from their mouths, and their scarlet eyes fixed on the uninvited guests.

"Senior, stand behind me!" Mash immediately raised her shield and stood in front of Fujimaru Ritsuka.

however--

"Submit."

A soft yet undeniable voice rang out.

Luo Tianyi took a step forward, facing the ferocious horde of magical beasts, and simply uttered three words.

The wind suddenly stopped for a moment.

The next second, an invisible wave spread out from her, and the magical beasts froze abruptly. The ferocity in their eyes gradually faded, replaced by a bewildered docility. They lowered their bodies and sat obediently on the ground like tamed wild beasts, and some even wagged their tails ingratiatingly.

Fujimaru Ritsuka: "...?"

Mashu: "...?!"

Having done all this, Luo Tianyi stood with her hands on her hips, a proud expression on her face, expecting praise from her group members, but what she received instead was...

"How could this be? When did you start saying such things, Tianyi?!" Xiling covered her mouth, her face filled with shock and despair.

"Hey!" Luo Tianyi puffed out her cheeks and stomped her foot in dissatisfaction.

Penglai Temple Jiuxiao gave a thumbs up: "Tianyi is so cool! But you could change the lines next time; they could be more domineering—"

She abruptly tossed her cloak aside, covered her eyes with one hand, and shouted with an off-the-charts, over-the-top, childish tone: "Warcraft! Submit to me!"

Luo Tianyi: "...No."

Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu exchanged a glance, and finally couldn't help but step forward and ask, "Um... may I ask who you are?"

The wind suddenly picked up.

Penglai Temple Nine Heavens' coat fluttered in the wind as she turned around in an exaggerated manner, covering her eyes with one hand and raising the other hand high—

"We are the ones who hear the cries of the world!"

"Cross the dimensional barrier and answer the call of despair!"

"This is the path to salvation, this is the battle for destiny!"

"We—the saviors of another world—have descended here!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka: “…”

Mashu: “…”

Kevin: "Does she have to deliver such long lines every time she appears on screen?"

The one who faded away: "Yeah, you'll get used to it."

Dan Heng: "..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka was silent for three seconds, then suddenly smiled brightly: "Great! It seems we have many reliable partners this time!"

Mashu: "...Senpai, didn't you accept this a little too quickly!"

Chapter 73 Xiling: Sorry, my hand slipped, Goddess

As they walked along a road, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Matthew turned their attention to a few people standing to the side.

Xiling grabbed Kevin by the collar and shouted, "Did you give red envelopes to the chat group?! Talk! Confess and you'll be treated leniently, resist and you'll be punished severely!"

Kevin, whose collar had been grabbed, gave him a smug look, as if to say, "What are you talking about? I don't understand."

Seeing the smug expression on Kevin's face, Xiling shook her head even more angrily: "Then tell me why you are Saber and I am Berserker?"

Everyone participating in this mission will be assigned an identity in this world through a chat group; there are seven riders and one descendant.

After completing the task, everyone receives the same 20000 points, plus their own individual rewards.

Xiling initially thought he was definitely Saber, after all, who in the entire chat group didn't know that he, Xiling, was a master swordsman? And with that exclusive holy sword in his hand, wasn't he definitely Saber? But upon closer inspection, wow, he was a Berserker.

"Hey, don't be like that, okay? It's a rare opportunity for people to join chat groups. It's all fate's arrangement. There's nothing I can do about it." Kevin didn't expect his identity to be Saber, but that didn't stop him from being smug.

The identity has now been confirmed.

Hiling [Berserker]

Kevin [Saber]

The Faded One [Caster]

Remünen [Archer]

Danheng [Lancer]

Elena [Rider]

Penglai Temple, Nine Heavens [Assassin]

Luo Tianyi [Foreigner]

Just as Xiling was getting increasingly annoyed by Kevin's smug expression, Xiling, Kevin, and Danheng all looked in a certain direction in the sky. At that moment, a black dot rapidly approached and headed towards the direction where Fujimaru Ritsuka was, while Fujimaru Ritsuka and Matthew seemed unaware of this.

As the black dot drew closer, a terrified scream, growing clearer and louder as it approached, rang out: "Waaaaaahh ...

As Fujimaru Ritsuka turned her head, she was enveloped in a shadow. Just as the black dot was about to hit her, a hand reached out and pulled her away.

boom! ! !

The dark shadow that fell from the sky slammed into the spot where Fujimaru Ritsuka had been standing. Dust billowed at the point of impact, but because there was no speed bump to cushion the impact, the shadow did not slow down at all. Under the huge inertia, it began to slide wildly along the ground for tens of meters!

"Ouch—!" Sitting on the broom, Elena suddenly covered her cheek, gasped, and shrank back as if she could feel the pain herself. "That looks so painful!"

Xiling put down the still-shaken Fujimaru Ritsuka, and waved her hand dismissively when she heard Elena's words, "Relax, that guy is tough, this little scuffle is nothing."

As if deliberately refuting Xiling's words, a wail immediately erupted from where the smoke and dust had just cleared: "Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! I'm going to die! My face! My nose! My... Ouch! It hurts so much!!!"

The faded one walked up to Xiling and asked, "...Didn't you say that other people's flesh is thick?"

Xiling replied matter-of-factly, "It is thick, but I didn't say it wouldn't hurt!"

Everyone: That seems to make sense.

"By the way, do you know that person, Xiling?" Remian felt that Xiling must know the other person, otherwise she wouldn't have let the other person fall freely.

"The goddess of beauty, harvest, and battle in Mesopotamian mythology."

Ishtar, the goddess of Venus

"A very self-centered guy"

Xiling's tone was very flat, but those who knew her well could tell that she didn't like the other person very much.

And Xiling really didn't like the other party very much, just as Xiling had said before, Ishtar was a very self-centered god.

The other party's true nature is unruly, willful, and cruel. If it weren't for the influence of the possessed being that changed their personality, Xi Ling would be sure that in the Seventh Singularity, the other party would be a much greater enemy than an ally.

Just then, Ishtar, at the end of the ravine, finally stood up, rubbing her backside. The movement aggravated the pain on her face, causing her to wince and gasp. She shook off the dust and bits of grass from her head and then belatedly realized that she was being stared at by ten very different pairs of eyes.

"Hey...hey!" Ishtar felt a little uncomfortable being stared at and instinctively raised her hands in front of her, but her goddess pride made her quickly straighten her back: "Why are you all looking at this goddess like that?"

“After all, it’s still rare to see car accident scenes in this era, so I took another look,” Xiling said, stepping forward with her signature smile.

"Huh?!" Ishtar instantly bristled, her goddess composure nearly crumbling. "Do you even know who's standing in front of you?! How dare you use such vulgar language as 'car crash' to describe my arrival?! I...I..." Her angry outburst abruptly stopped the moment she saw Xiling's face, her arrogant expression turning thoughtful.

The whole process lasted about five or six seconds.

Just as everyone was starting to feel confused and wondering if the goddess had damaged her brain, Ishtar's eyes sparkled with surprise!

"Ah—!" Ishtar slammed her right fist into her left palm with a sharp sound, as if she had discovered some rare treasure.

Then, she pointed a finger straight at Xiling's face, a smug, condescending smile spreading across her face:

"This goddess is magnanimous and forgives your rudeness and the sin of watching! Be grateful, mortals!"

Ishtar paused, raised her chin even higher, and gazed at the Xiling: "As for you, with your passable appearance, this goddess has decided to bestow upon you supreme glory!"

“I grant you permission—” Ishtar turned slightly to the side, lifted her foot slightly, and stretched it forward in a gesture of invitation.

"Gently kiss the back of my foot, swear your allegiance to me, and from this day forward become my most beloved male concubine!"

The moment the words left his mouth—thump! It was as if someone had pressed the mute button.

The people in the chat group stared at the goddess in astonishment, their eyes all conveying the same message.

Are you out of your mind?!

The silence made Fujimaru Ritsuka instinctively realize that something was about to happen.

And the two at the very front.

Ishtar looked smug, and Siling's smile grew even brighter.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Xiling moved. He took a step forward, a bright smile on his face, and walked towards Ishtar, as if he were truly going to accept that supreme honor.

As Ishtar watched Xiling approach, his handsome face magnified before her eyes, causing a blush to rise on her cheeks.

Xiling walked up to Ishtar and stopped just a step away from her outstretched jade foot.

Xiling's smile remained unchanged, even softening slightly. Under Ishtar's hazy, expectant gaze, Xiling bent slightly, her movements fluid and natural, like a knight about to kiss the princess's hand.

His right hand also naturally extended, seemingly targeting Ishtar's slender ankle.

Ishtar closed her eyes contentedly, feeling the cool fingertips gently touching the skin of her ankle.

However—the next second!

"call--!!"

What suddenly exploded in my ears was an extremely violent and fierce wind that seemed to tear the air apart!

Immediately afterwards, an unprecedented and terrifying force gripped her ankle!

That wasn't a gentle touch; it was the confinement of iron clamps!

"Ugh!" Ishtar's astonishment had barely risen before it was too late to even form a sound from her throat.
