Popularity is everything; I play a super genius

What are you willing to go to for the lives of these ants?

Chiho Kamishiro brandished her scythe and charged towards the group of innocent civilians.

"Saki-kun! No!!!"

Ruri's face showed a look of horror, and Okizaki cried out in a low voice.

Saki wanted to tell Ruri—

Do not worry.

He doesn't have such high moral standards, nor is he a fool and a pushover like Huomu.

He never thought he could save everyone.

however……

That's what he wanted to say to Liuli, and that's what he truly thought.

but……

He forgot one thing.

He's live streaming right now...

The camera was pointed directly at him...

If he doesn't do it, how will the audience perceive him?

Even if it's for the sake of popularity, he seems to have no other choice.

The moment I realized it, my body started acting on its own, completely disobeying me...

Almost the instant Chiho Kamishiro swung her scythe, Saki had already flashed in front of her to block her.

They stood in front of all the people.

At this moment, even his most trusted trump card, [Blurring Reality and Illusion], could not be used.

He can become intangible, but the common people behind him cannot.

The sword of no thought clashed with the sickle.

An overwhelming force surged forth, causing Qi Ji's hands to go numb and his tiger's mouth to split open.

In an instant, the Wuxiang Sword flew out of his hand.

"?!"

This time, it was Saki who showed a look of horror.

This was the first time he had ever been so thoroughly outmatched in terms of strength.

Is this the power gained by abandoning all defenses after "armed reconstruction"?

That's really strong...

The weapon slipped from his hand. Before he could think, Qi Ji quickly crossed his arms and held them in front of him, shielding himself from everyone!

The mirror armor on his entire body converged on Qi Ji's arms like crazy!

Gathering, breaking apart, gathering again, breaking apart again...

The sound of shattering lenses kept coming, and it was unclear how many explosions there were.

When the last piece of mirror armor shattered into dust, the remaining power of the giant scythe was finally exhausted.

No one died.

Great.

However, Saki looked like she was about to die...

Of course, it's just "watching".

Saki's Max-level physique ultimately held up the bottom.

He even has the strength to fight!

However, their disheveled appearance was inevitably captured on camera.

With just one strike, Qi Ji's [Mirror Image] armor, which had been used to repay a loan, was completely destroyed.

His arms were a bloody mess, and he flew backward, crashing into the wall before sliding to the ground, leaving a long trail of blood.

The chat in the live stream was silent for a moment after seeing this, and then it suddenly became anxious!

From being firmly in the lead to being on the verge of defeat, everything happened too fast and too suddenly!

"Damn! This Spider-Man has no sportsmanship!"

"That's despicable! This round doesn't count! A normal game against Lao Ji would have been a win!!!"

"Exactly! Even without civilians kidnapping Haji, with Haji's speed, she wouldn't even be able to touch her!!!"

……

Liuli rushed to Qiji's side, her face full of worry.

She regretted it.

Just now, she actually thought of a solution for a fleeting moment—

That is, she will take action and kill all those civilians!

Once those people are dead, there will be nothing left for Saki to protect.

He wouldn't have had to risk his life to take that blow.

If it were for her own sake, Liuli would never do something like massacring innocent civilians.

I wouldn't even think about it.

But for Saki, she was willing.

She was willing to get herself dirty.

Anyway, she wasn't clean to begin with.

She considers herself a bad person, so let her be bad to the very end—

She wanted Saki to live.

However, Ruri also knew that if she did that, she might never be able to stand by Saki's side again...

she really...

I don't want him to hate me.

It was that moment of hesitation that caused her to miss the opportunity.

It's pointless to say anything now.

“Saki-san…” Ruri worriedly helped Saki-san up from the ground.

Qi Ji waved his hand at her: "I...I'm fine."

Before he could finish speaking, he couldn't hold back and vomited a mouthful of blood.

The mask intelligently opened and closed for a moment at the corner of Qi Ji's lips, preventing the bloodstains from sticking inside.

“Ziji-kun?!” Ruri’s voice trembled.

Qi Ji simply shook his head at her, indicating that she should help him find the sword that had flown away to who knows where.

Saki glanced at the system interface—

The moon descended overnight!

[Currently, 99.91% of loops have been established!]

It'll be soon, it'll be soon...

Victory is within reach!

Just a little more time!

Just a little bit!

Saki looked up at Chiho Kamishiro, who was approaching step by step with a sinister grin.

He took a deep breath, hesitated for a moment, then abandoned his idol image and suddenly, like a rogue, raised his hands:

"Hey, is it possible to settle this?"

Upon hearing this, Chiho Kamishiro was stunned for a moment, and then she was so angry that she laughed!

"At this very moment?! You're not joking, are you?"

When you killed my Qingxian, didn't you ever think about reconciliation?!

“He didn’t want to reconcile at the time. You can ask Liuli if you don’t believe me.”

Liuli understood Qiji's intention almost instantly, and she immediately cooperated by saying, "Auntie..."

"Don't call me aunt!"

Chiho Kamishiro ignored Ruri and looked at Saki, intending to take immediate action to avenge her beloved Seigen.

but--

Seeing the other person raise their hands, it seemed they had truly given up all resistance...

Moreover, it's mainly because there's simply no way to resist it anymore.

He was covered in bruises, and even his armor was torn to shreds.

Chiho Kamishiro was certain that this guy was no longer a threat.

Since that's the case, she wouldn't mind humiliating the brat for a few more seconds.

After all, her Qingxian died so painfully, why should this brat get to enjoy a quick death?

Of course, besides wanting to humiliate them, there is actually another reason.

That kid is really weird!

There were too many things that Chiho Kamishiro couldn't understand during the battle just now.

If we just kill this brat like that, these mysteries will probably haunt her for the rest of her life.

It would be better to ask him clearly before killing him.

"From the very beginning, I've always felt something was wrong—"

Why are you immune to my mind control?

"Also, what was that technique you used to break free from my web?"

Immune to mind manipulation?

Of course, it's because of the [Face of Miracles].

Saki wanted to ramble on a bit more and buy as much time as possible.

However, after glancing at the numbers displayed on the system interface, he immediately stopped pretending!

There's no need for that anymore!

"Immune to your mind manipulation?"

No, it's not exactly immunity, because I didn't do anything.

"Then why?" Chiho Kamishiro asked, puzzled.

And the next moment, an arrogant aura rose up from Qi Ji once again!

His raised hands were lowered little by little, and his hunched body straightened up little by little!

Saki has been restored to factory settings!

His arrogant tone, coupled with an incredibly irritating expression, was deserving of a beating.

"why?

No reason is needed.

Because it's a very simple principle—
