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

[Black Swan: So, it's my turn to act. @Ruanmei, @Heita, I'll send you into his memory space; you can awaken him.]

[March 7th: I'd like to see anyone who dares to slander Sister Goose apologize to her right now.]

[Fireworks: Black Swan: So I made my move.]

[Black Swan: But if you cannot awaken him, you will all die deep within his consciousness.]

[Black Tower: What are you muttering about? Hurry up.]

Ruan Mei: Don't worry.

[Estella: I...I...can I go? I'm on the space station!]

[Black Tower: Just stay put, don't make things worse.]

"With the help of the Black Swan, Black Tower and Ruan Mei have entered your consciousness space."

Everywhere you look is pitch black.

A little boy, as delicate as a porcelain doll, squatted quietly in the corner, large tears still clinging to his face.

Ruan Mei and Hei Ta exchanged a glance and then nodded.

There is only one person in the depths of one's heart, and that is oneself.

In other words, the porcelain doll-like boy in front of you is Lu Qing in his youth.

"Can I turn on the light, little one?" Black Tower asked with a gentle smile.

I'm afraid of light.

"Light is so warm, why be afraid of it?"

"There's no reason why, I just don't like it. Also, could you please leave? I don't like interacting with people."

Troublesome, tricky.

Why is he so stubborn and unresponsive?

Black Tower actually knew nothing about Lu Qing's past, so it had no idea how to proceed.

Ruan Mei seemed to understand something. She asked gently:

"Little one? Where's your mother?"

"I'm unwanted, I'm an orphan."

"Then can I be your mother?" Ruan Mei bowed slightly, her pear-shaped figure leaning forward. Through the thin moonlight, she saw the scar on the boy's arm, almost identical to the one she had seen before.

The scars crisscrossed like writhing dragons.

He never spoke of his past; it remained a mystery.

"Mother……?"

"I will love you, just like your mother."

Ruan Mei then picked up the boy's battered body.

Chapter 110 The Fifth Simulation (Sefaria)

Lu woke up, his chest aching terribly.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Hei Ta and Ruan Mei standing to the side.

I think I just had a strange dream.

Someone forced me to call her "Mom".

An orange mask floated in front of him.

"Aha, Lu Qing, you're not allowed to sleep here. If you don't start the simulation soon, you're really going to die."

"What do you mean?" Lu Qing clutched her chest, wincing in pain as she got up.

"The Ether Trojan virus implanted by Boshizun is eroding your body. If you don't turn on the simulation, you'll probably look a bit like it."

"I understand." Lu Qing took a deep breath.

Damn it, Dr. Zun, I will definitely be back!!!

Open your third eye!

[March 7th: Open!]

[Star: Let's turn the tide!]

The orange flames emitted a dazzling yellow glow.

The illusory and bizarre flowing light cards flew out one after another like a geyser.

It's still the same familiar process.

White < Green < Blue < Purple < Gold < Red

The familiar five-choose-three game.

However, this time, there's an additional red option.

I hit it, and I got a big red card!!

It seems like Aha is giving himself special treatment?

Lu Qing raised her head slightly and looked at the burning crimson cards.

[Silent Lord (Red): The strictest mother of geniuses, after dying at your hands, became the power that Aha can provide. (Note: Zandal, don't let me catch you.)]

[Longevity (Blue): You can live a very long time, but the price is that I'm not good at running. (Note: Of course, you're faster than a tortoise.)]

[Astrologer (Purple): Perhaps you can occasionally glimpse a sliver of the future.]

[Quick Draw (Blue): Five meters away, the gun is fast; within five meters, the gun is both accurate and fast. (Note: Guess if there are any bullets in my gun.)]

[Friend Card (Blue): Who can refuse a friend card? (Note: You're a good person, meow~)]

Hmm, there's something to this red card about it.

Although the Silent Lord was crushed to death by her own Star God status last time, it doesn't mean she was too weak; it just means I was too strong.

I chose the red card pack.

Then there's the Astrologer, the only one with a purple talent.

Ah, you understand me, you know I've always been a fan of the occult.

[Fireworks: Lu Qing: You know, I will bring my occult talents into Onpharos.]

The remaining three blue talents are not difficult to choose from; among the short ones, let's pick the best one: longevity.

I'm already a Silent Lord, what do I need a Quickdraw for?

As for the "friend zone" card.

He did want to be a good person, but Lu Qing didn't like being given the "nice guy" card.

There are still differences between the two.

Lu Qing didn't hesitate any longer and reached out to grab the card.

"Silent Lord", "Longevity", "Astrologer"

Compared to the previous times when entering the simulation felt like being shaken in a washing machine, this time the process was significantly more comfortable.

You opened your eyes amidst a chaotic and bewildering state.

"Year Zero: You were born in the arid city-state of Dolores."

"Your parents were both members of the Robin Hood group."

"At age six: Your parents' crimes have come to light, they've been imprisoned, but they've left you a large fortune."

"Countless people coveted this fortune, but they would vanish into thin air the very next day."

These people really don't understand the true value of the Silent Lord title.

"Of course, you didn't intend to just sit around and do nothing. In order to make a living, you took out a large sum of money and set up a shop called Yorozuya. As long as you pay the corresponding amount, you will do what they need. In addition, you also run a fortune-telling business."

"Of course, I don't sell hooks."

"As a pure and beautiful messenger, if you were to sell hooks, the line of suitors would probably stretch from Dolos to Ohma."

"I won't stoop to five and a half copper coins."

[Ruan Mei: What a good baby.]

[Firework: Speaking of which, if Ruan Mei becomes Lao Qing's mother, wouldn't you be her daughters?]

[Aista: @Ruanmei, Mom.]

[Fireworks: Wa-chan's move was too ruthless.]

"It was another ordinary day. As usual, you dismissed several young girls who wanted to take care of you, and you didn't forget to secretly tell their parents."

"Let their parents give them a mixed doubles match."

"This is the simplest way to stop harassment."

For the first time in a long time, a light drizzle fell on the streets of Dolores, which was undoubtedly a good thing for a drought-stricken city-state.

Rain meant a bleak business, while Lu Qing lay on a rattan chair, leisurely enjoying the breeze.

We'll cook tofu hot pot for a while, and then eat some pickled vegetables.

"After eating pickled vegetables and tofu, even the emperor is no match for me."

Just as Lu Qing was enjoying himself, a burly man wearing a linen shirt walked into the store.

"Hey kid, you're pretty laid-back."

"Don't bother me if there's nothing wrong. I finally have no orders, I'm going to get some sleep."

"So many rich young ladies want to keep you as their sugar daddy, why don't you consider it?"

Lu Qing glanced back at him.

"Don't even think about it, I'm a married man."

"What about your wife?"

"Not here."

"Stop joking, I'm here on serious business."

"What do you mean? Tell me." Actually, the young man in linen was one of the few friends Lu Qing had in this simulation. Because half of his face was pockmarked, people called him "Pasty Cat."

He doesn't have any bad intentions, he's just a little dim-witted.

Do you know about tonight's trial?

"How could I have known that there would be a trial every few days?"

I'm going to see my crush today.

"So what? Why did you call me? To be a third wheel."

"Doesn't she like you? If you go, she'll definitely come and watch the ceremony with us, and then I'll have a chance."

"Interesting. Aren't you afraid I'll steal it from you?"

You don't think much of her.

Lu Qing touched his chin, thinking, "What you said makes a lot of sense."

Moreover, watching a spectacle is indeed human nature; it's something ingrained in the bones of the Hanxia people.

After hearing what the cat said, Lu Qing became interested, since there weren't many orders today.

"Fine, I'll give myself a day off."

"Thanks, bro."

"If I don't go, you can call me bro and I won't argue with you. But if I do go, what should you call me?"

"You're getting cocky now that I'm saying you're fat, aren't you? Godfather, I'll treat you to barbecue next time."

Lu Qing nodded, but only he knew the truth.
