Collapse Iron: After watching the simulation, they all turned to the dark side.

"But to be honest, given your status, you are not qualified to meet the Siren Princess."

"Of course, you only plan to catch a glimpse of her from afar."

"After all, you know her, but she doesn't know you."

"The Siren Princess gives a speech on the first of every month."

"You decide where to meet her."

"And so, on that day, you saw the Siren Princess make her grand entrance."

Like all leaders, she inspired morale and gave hope to her subjects.

Therefore, even without her, she could be a qualified leader.

That's what Lu Qing thinks.

I have no regrets in this life.

"Sai Fei'er, let's go."

"Um, I have to go now. That siren princess is scary; it looks like she's watching us."

"How could a cat like you be afraid of fish?"

Before Lu Qing could finish speaking, Sai Feier transformed into a black streak and disappeared into the ocean currents.

Lu Qing glanced at the wheelchair beneath her.

Looking up again, she glanced at Heather, who was dressed in a gorgeous dress on the stage.

Why do I feel a chill on my back?

"My lord, the Siren Princess requests your presence." Two warriors of the Siren clan, clad in armor and armed with weapons, gestured for Lu Qing to proceed.

"Can I not go?" Lu Qing had a vague sense of foreboding.

"What do you say, sir?"

"You were ushered into the Little Mermaid's palace and saw Heather, whom you hadn't seen in a long time."

"Her figure is still so good. Although she's dressed, you've seen her naked many times."

"Especially those two ravines that seem to leap out of the ground."

"Family members, does anyone know why? I forgot to turn off auto-aiming."

Heather was no stranger to those covetous gazes; she was stunningly beautiful, like a poison to all men, making it impossible to look away.

But she didn't like that kind of gaze, except from the boy in front of her.

She had only one thought in her mind: to strip the black-clad boy in front of her naked and then perform some kind of beautiful duet.

Why do I have this thought?

She planned to ask first.

"May I ask your name? Where have we met before? And would you be interested in marrying me?"

The first question was somewhat understandable, but the second question made Lu Qing feel a little embarrassed.

He knows he's good-looking, but surely not to the point where he wants to marry her the moment they meet?

"Um, I'm Lu Qing. I don't have any plans to get married right now. Mermaid Princess, well, I have something to do, I think I have to go."

Heather walked up to Lu Qing and looked at his chest, which was covered with fleshy growths.

"You're hurt. Does it hurt? My heart aches for you. Who are you? I feel like I've seen you somewhere before. I really, really like you."

Then, she shed a tear.

Lu Qing was heartbroken to see this.

I really, really want to save her and take her away from this world.

The world is an illusion, but love is not.

Sometimes, Lu Qing would think.

Does the bond between people in a virtual world count as a bond?

And who are they?

But when you inject emotions into this fake world, they gain life.

This includes Krydela, and also Heseryn.

Even Saifeier and Heina, Black Seventeen...

I think so, that's what Lu Qing thinks.

[End of simulation]

Chapter 105 Fourth Simulated Settlement (Prelude to the Venerable Hermit in Thin Veil)

Don't finish the simulation yet, Aha, let me ask you something first.

"Aha? You say it." The orange mask was fluttering.

"Didn't you say they had no memory of me?"

"Yes, I did nothing wrong."

"Then I was tricked by you into meeting Hazel, and she sucked me dry like a corpse?"

"That's not contradictory."

Well, he's been tricked again. Lu Qing is about to fall off the roof.

Damn, I didn't elbow Ragus this time, but I definitely will next time.

Who knows how I'll die in this life? I don't have many days left to live. If I'm drained dry, I'll die even faster.

However, he didn't die in front of Hazel; he managed to sneak away in the end.

[Black Tower:? 】

[Ruan Mei: ?]

【Keldera: ?】

"Settle the accounts, settle the accounts."

"Simulation complete, calculating Pleasure Achievements"

This simulation evaluation: S+

[Rewards are being distributed]

[Charm points increased from 14 to 16. Congratulations! You're going further and further down the path of pure beauty.]

[The spark that ignites conflict: Buy one get one free, you get it?]

[Aha's Mask: It is said that by wearing this mask, you will receive Aha's blessing, and even the Star Gods will fear you.]

[Messenger of Pleasure: Aha acknowledges your pleasure and has turned his gaze upon you.]

[Space Lockdown Device (Disposable): A causal weapon capable of locking down a Star God for several minutes.]

After quickly reviewing the rewards, Lu Qing gasped in astonishment.

No, these rewards are a bit excessive.

This is a double-fire technique, aimed at both sealing and killing the Star God, along with the authority of the Envoy.

I have never felt so refreshed.

Ah, he's lost his mind.

"Aha!! Actually, I just need you to do me a favor."

"Oh, I don't need these rewards."

"Please be patient, my believer. After watching this video, you will change your mind."

Lu Qing had already opened her eyes and was looking at Aha with some confusion.

[Bai Lu: Lu Qing: Let me see what you're up to.]

"what."

"An 'if' line in a world without you."

"It's related to the Black Tower."

"Alright, unfold it."

"Lusaka IF Train Line"

"The Black Tower pays homage to the Venerable Master of Learning."

"The Black Tower was abandoned by the learned Venerable One."

"The train crew is heading to the planet Lusaka."

"The Black Tower entered Onphalus alone."

"The Black Tower underestimated the danger."

"Her head was removed by the Iron Curtain."

"She became an indescribable purple monster, also known as Emperor III, who ravaged the galaxy."

"A genius full of humanity eventually turned into a monster devoid of humanity."

Lu Qing stared wide-eyed in disbelief, a strange sense of malevolence rising in her eyes.

It was so painful. She watched as the pair of beautiful, dark purple eyes in the image, filled with despair, gradually turned gray.

Like dazzling fireworks turning into gray dust.

Lu Qing had forgotten how long it had been since she last cried.

And now, he really couldn't stop crying.

What he was protecting, what he cherished, was decaying and rotting right before his eyes.

"Hahahaha, Lu Qing, do you know why she died?"

Inside the dark starship, the mocking voice, like a snake smeared with sesame candy, snaked its way into the ear canal.

Lu Qing gasped for breath and suddenly looked up. A distorted beam of light shone through the crack in the ceiling, like a gaping mouth cutting open Lu Qing's already festering wound.

"Because of what?"

"Because the All-Knowing One, as a star god, calculated countless possibilities, but none of them would bring Him destruction."

"He should not have been so self-righteous."

“Great, I think so too, so I'm giving you this chance now, quickly thank Aha.”

[Black Tower: Little follower, don't cry, it breaks my heart to see you like this.]

[Ruan Mei: @Heita, hugs.]

[Black Swan: @Danheng, apologize to me. What do you mean by a top-tier initiator?]

[Fireworks: I can never repay Sister Goose's kindness.]

[March 7th: Sister Goose's value is still rising.]
