They already have a chat group, why bother with the plot?

In fact, Ling Yu's words were too idealistic.

Not to mention that the person logging in from the outside is a god-level account, the programmer who can compile the entire UW world from the outside is someone that Alice, as a single 'data', is destined to be unable to resist.

But hope and goals are often the greatest driving force for people to move forward.

Alice needs it now.

Lin Qingtan: "Yes, little Alice, don't be afraid. If you really encounter danger, I will exchange for a time-travel card to help you."

Qingtan understood Alice's fear and anxiety and offered comfort in the group chat.

Ling Yu: "Just as Xiao Qingtan said, we will all come to help you."

Alice: "Thank you, Sister Qingtan, thank you, Brother Lingyu. I'm fine. I'm just having a little trouble accepting it right now."

With their encouragement, Alice felt much better.

At least breathing isn't so suffocating anymore.

Otherwise, faced with that desperate scene, she really wouldn't know what to do.

She could hardly imagine what the tranquil and beautiful village of Lulit would look like after it was engulfed by war.

Take a deep breath.

Alice's previously uneasy gaze was replaced by determination.

If she was confused before, she now has a clear goal.

She has a reason to become stronger in order to protect her village!

Alice: "@Lingyu, Brother Lingyu, I'll have to trouble you then."

Upon hearing this, everyone knew that Alice had made her decision.

Ling Yu: "Don't worry, Alice will be very impressive after becoming an Integrity Knight."

Ling Yu: "Let me think. During the great battle, you will be wearing golden armor, riding a flying dragon, holding the divine weapon Golden Osmanthus Sword, standing alone at the border of the human realm, facing tens of thousands of troops with composure, pointing your sword to the sky, and the Golden Osmanthus Flower will bloom, becoming a golden meteor dancing in the night sky!"

Alice: "Huh?"

Alice was stunned by Ling Yu's words.

Her face froze for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, Alice's originally fair cheeks visibly flushed.

Alice: "Ahhh, what are you saying, Brother Lingyu?!"

Alice cupped her burning cheeks, her pupils dilating in shock.

Just hearing about it is so embarrassing!

This is something she wouldn't do at all.

Little Fairy Doctor: "Isn't this pretty cool?"

The Little Fairy Doctor, who had been silent until now, finally spoke.

Having also experienced despair, Little Fairy Doctor could deeply empathize with Alice's feelings.

However, she also understood that Alice needed to come out of this on her own, and Ling Yu and Qing Tan's words only played a supporting role.

Seeing Alice's adorable appearance, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Lin Qingtan: "A female general, so cool!"

Qingtan made a quick mental image: a female general with a resolute face, clad in golden armor, her red robe fluttering in the wind, as the sun sets in the west.

It’s so handsome just thinking about it.

Alice: "Please don't make fun of me, sisters. How could I possibly be a general..."

Ling Yu: "That's not necessarily true. In the battle between the Dark Empire and the human world, you are the heart and soul of the army. All the Integrity Knights will cooperate with your commands."

Alice: "Me? Am I that amazing?"

Ling Yu: "Don't limit yourself. Your potential is beyond your imagination. Maybe I'll need you to teach me swordsmanship in the future."

Alice: "I, I will try my best!"

The confusion has vanished, leaving only perseverance.

She wants to become stronger!

Powerful enough to protect the village!

Under the starry night sky

The tiny blonde girl clenched her fist to cheer herself up.

In group chat

The four of them chatted for a while longer.

Finally, everything was settled as before, and Alice would go to the End Mountains as usual tomorrow.

When Alice sees that an Integrity Knight has come to pick her up, Ling Yu will step in and help her resist the synthesis technique of Authornesdort.

After arranging the remaining matters, the group said goodnight to each other and went to sleep.

……

The next day

The forest next to Lulit Village, where the Demon Tree, Kija Siddar, resides.

The warm sunlight shines on this towering tree.

Under the tree were two men, one woman, and three children.

They sat together and ate lunch.

"Here, Eugeo, eat more."

At this moment, the blonde girl among the three kept handing food to one of the little boys with dark brown hair.

"Alice, I really can't eat any more."

"Eugeo said, his mouth full of food."

Although he was happy that Alice cared about him, his stomach just couldn't take it anymore.

"Alice, what's wrong with you today?" Kirito, the black-haired boy beside him, asked.

He felt that Alice was acting a little strange today.

Alice shook her head when asked the question and continued to hand food to Eugeo.

Alice's mind is filled with images of Eugeo's death, and thinking that Eugeo is still alive, she eats more.

Chapter 42 The Blue Rose Sword

Seeing that Alice was unwilling to say more, Kirito stopped asking and focused on enjoying the food in his hand.

"Kirito, Eugeo, even if I'm gone one day, you must take good care of yourselves."

Alice, who had been quietly watching the two eat all the food she had brought, suddenly spoke up.

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the two little boys changed.

"where are you going?"

"Alice, what happened?!"

The first one is Eugeo, and the second one is Kirito.

The latter is clearly more vigilant.

"It's nothing, just a feeling. After all, all good things must come to an end, and we'll eventually have to part ways," Alice said wistfully.

"Oh, I see. Don't worry, no matter how far apart we are in the future, I will come to find you," Eugeo said with a smile.

He already had feelings for Alice, and upon hearing her words, he instinctively tried to comfort her.

"Thank you, Eugeo," Alice said with a smile.

Eugeo didn't think much of it, but Kirito frowned.

Because Alice gave him a really strange feeling today.

Despite being only eleven or twelve years old, Kirito's mindset is completely that of a high school student, so he can clearly sense that something is wrong with Alice's words.

It's like saying goodbye.

But Alice's words were also correct, which left him momentarily speechless.

"Alright, now that we've finished eating, do you remember our agreement from yesterday?" Alice said.

She couldn't let the two of them think about it too much, after all, she was also someone who wasn't good at saying goodbye.

"You mean the trip to the End Mountains to find ice? Of course I remember," Eugeo said immediately upon hearing Alice mention it.

“Let’s set off now,” Alice said, standing up.

"How about we do it another day?"

Kirito suddenly spoke, startling the two of them.

"What's wrong?" Eugeo looked at his best friend with concern.

Kirito shook his head: "I just feel a little uneasy."

"Okay, don't overthink it."

“The weather is perfect at midday, let’s go early and come back early,” Alice said.

Kirito frowned, then relaxed, and looked at the two of them, instructing them, "If you encounter danger, you must stop everything you are doing and leave as quickly as possible!"

"it is good."

The two naturally agreed.

After packing up, the three embarked on their journey to the End Mountains.

……

Ling Yu's family

Today's goal is simple.

After constructing the remaining core, consume it and then test it in the magic tower.

Two and a half days have passed since Ling Yu last consumed the core, and now he has completely taken control of the core.

With his body constantly being strengthened by the core, Ling Yu is now able to accommodate new powers.

quickly

With the power of the Herrscher of Reason's core, six cores of different colors appeared on the table.

Herrscher of Ice Core, Herrscher of Rock Core, Herrscher of Binding Core, Herrscher of Erosion Core, Herrscher of Domination Core, Herrscher of Wind Core.

At this point, all the Herrscher cores that Ling Yu knew about at this stage appeared before him.

Then, Ling Yu began to put each of the cores into his mouth one by one, using this to experience the power of his newly acquired authority.

Ling Yu, who possesses the power of the Herrscher of Reason, can easily unleash the powers of other Herrschers, but compared to starting with zero frames, recreating the structure will undoubtedly take up time.

Therefore, Ling Yu simply reproduced all the power of ownership through the core, swallowed it into his body, and used it directly.

As it turned out, Ling Yu's idea was correct.

For example, Lin Mang, with just a glance from him, easily turned the other party into a puppet.

If there is no core inside the body.

He estimated that it would take some time to construct a core or a Feather Dust.

Just as Ling Yu closed his eyes to sense the authority, a sudden "ding" sounded in his mind, causing him to abruptly open his eyes.

He couldn't be mistaken about that voice.

It's the notification sound for a red envelope!

Ling Yu immediately entered the group chat and saw that Alice had sent him a special red envelope.
