Reborn as a beautiful girl, I want to be the best in the world

ps: There will be more updates tonight

The black knight's frantic hammer finally stopped.

The last sword Ye Qing handed out was the one that ended the Black Knight's life. The dark heavy hammer hanging over Ye Qing's head did not fall on her in the end.

The HP bar above his head had reached the bottom, and the frenzied black knight finally fell down.

"call--"

Retracting the sword in his hand, the black knight, who looked like a giant, slowly knelt down in front of Ye Qing, and his heavy knight armor fell to the ground at this moment.

The roaring ghost then dissipated, and the ferocious face continued to shrink until it disappeared on the armor.

When the Black Knight fell, the souls that gathered around him finally returned to the cemetery. They rushed out from their black armors wailing and drilled into the broken tombstones.

When all the hideous appearance disappeared, what was left inside the black armor was only a pale and almost decayed human figure.

It was a skinny body, solid compared to the giant's armor.

It is not worth mentioning, but Ye Qing could recognize who was inside the giant's armor.

She knew very well that this was the boss she had killed with her own hands in the past, the knight who had dedicated his exclusive long sword to her.

The once famous pioneer knight, and the one that Edmund had been pursuing the truth about, was his grandfather - Knight Sandro.

"What's going on? Did the change in the boss battle process also change the boss?"

Ye Qing looked at the shrunken old man in front of him. Even though he was no longer in his former prime, the scars running through his body were enough to show his past achievements.

But it was obvious that she had never seen an old man in this posture before.

Before Ye Qing could think about it, the task completed prompt had already jumped in front of her.

Pale Justice/Foolish Loyalty (6/8)

Stage 6 of the mission: Go to the abandoned mine, find the Black Knight, and take back Edmund.

Mission completed, current mission completion rate: 65%

Due to the early start of the task, players will receive double rewards in double difficulty mode.

Unlock exclusive equipment rewards——

Wait, exclusive equipment rewards? !

Ye Qing was stunned. Wouldn't the exclusive mission only give exclusive equipment at the end? This was a valuable conclusion drawn after verifying a few exclusive missions in the previous life.

but now?

The first rule that was broken appeared. The black hammer that had originally fallen into the mud suddenly floated up and rushed towards Ye Qing's face.

Ye Qing's reaction certainly would not let her get beaten. She stretched out her hand without hesitation and directly grabbed the black hammer that was flying towards her. However, what happened next made Ye Qing howl in pain.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!"

The moment Ye Qing grasped the black hammer, severe pain suddenly spread from her right arm, and even stimulated her brain in an instant, making the world in front of Ye Qing blurry for a moment.

"Sister Zero!!"

Fili at the entrance of the mine tunnel didn't care about anything else and rushed directly towards Ye Qing. She quickly helped Ye Qing up and looked at Ye Qing, who looked like he was about to roll his eyes. It was obvious that he was about to lose consciousness due to the severe pain.

Ye Qing curled up and trembled uncontrollably. This kind of situation had occurred in previous games. In order to avoid this kind of situation, almost all players would reduce all kinds of stimulation within the game.

Especially in the past when virtual reality games were not mature enough, players were eager to reduce such stimulation.

What should I do?

The pain setting can only be set from the player's own menu, but Ye Qing's current reaction clearly shows that he cannot open the setting menu himself.

Feili stretched out her hand to hold Ye Qing's body to prevent Ye Qing's struggle from causing further harm.

"Yueliang, come and help!"

Hearing Feili's cry that sounded a little like crying, Yue Liang, whose health points had not been recovered much, rushed out directly. When he staggered in front of Ye Qing, he couldn't help but be startled.

Yue Liang's first reaction was to call up his own permission menu and prepare to contact Huanmeng's administrator.

Ye Qing's current situation is classified as a dangerous condition. As an employee of Huanmeng, Yue Liang doesn't know why the administrator has not forced him to log off, but if he doesn't do something, this kind of stimulation will cause Ye Qing considerable sequelae.

"I'll contact Huanmeng's administrator. Fili, hold her down first!"

But just as he was about to reach out his hand, Ye Qing, who was still twitching violently, suddenly raised his head, took a deep breath greedily like a drowning man, and at the same time tightly hugged Fili in front of him.

Hoo, hoo, hoo...

After the initial pain passed, Ye Qing finally recovered from the torturous suffering. Although the pain in his head still existed, Ye Qing finally woke up.

"It's okay, it's okay..."

Feili patted Ye Qing's back gently and spoke softly in her ear.

This was the first time that she and Yue Liang saw this top player being so vulnerable. Even when facing the fierce attack of the Black Knight, Ye Qing never lost the upper hand.

It's probably like a nightmare experience, right?

Feeling Ye Qing hugging her tightly, Feili winked at Yue Liang, telling him not to say anything yet and not to contact the administrator directly.

Only Ye Qing understood what had just happened.

When she held the black hammer just now, along with the severe pain, those extremely real scenes flooded into her mind.

Bloody battlefield, collapsed mine

Those hands reaching out to him for help, those wails of resentment echoing in his ears, the companions who once trusted him were killed by his own hands, and he became the sinner who took the blame for the empire.

Those who once had great ambitions to expand the territory for the empire and devoted themselves to the mining were eventually buried in the mine along with the conspiracy. Some were even tortured for a long time in the dark mine tunnel before dying with resentment.

These hatreds and murderous intentions eventually invaded the body of Knight Sandro, condensing into this pitch-black hammer and the ferocious black knight.

Ye Qing also lowered his head and looked at the properties of the black hammer in his hand.

I go

Ye Qing felt that his previous long sword "Justice" was abnormal enough, but he did not expect that this giant hammer named Loyalty was also an offensive equipment, and it was the kind with maximum offensive power.

The skill can cause penetrating damage equal to half of the strength plus stamina. Based on Ye Qing's current attributes, that is a full fifteen points of penetrating damage.

This damage ignores defense, and also steals 50% of life. Each true damage will restore eight points of life for Ye Qing, which can widen the gap in health points.

Although there are negative attributes such as agility reduced by two, this can be completely compensated.

"Sister Jasmine... I'm afraid I have obtained an incredible piece of equipment now."

Ye Qing laughed, then stood up holding the black sledgehammer, and wiped the blood off his face as if nothing had happened.

Judging from the Black Knight's performance, this sledgehammer will most likely have some skills of frenzy or exchanging health for attributes. Ye Qing is quite looking forward to it.

"Are you really okay? If not, log off first. Your health is important!"

There was still some worry in Feili's eyes. She stood up and looked at Ye Qing's energetic appearance, then reached out and rubbed Ye Qing's head.

Yue Liang next to him also nodded, agreeing with Fili's statement. After this battle, not to mention Ye Qing, even he was mentally exhausted by the torture of those skeletons, not to mention Ye Qing who was under such a great stimulation.

Looking at the two people in front of him, Ye Qing couldn't help but feel warm in his heart. The fact that this couple could do this for a stranger was enough to show their character.

"It's okay, Sister Jasmine, have you completed your side quests?"

"this......"

Fili and Yue Liang looked at each other and shook their heads.

Not finished yet?

Ye Qing was also stunned for a moment, and then she began to check her tasks.

Pale Justice/Foolish Loyalty (8/8)

Final stage of the mission: Defeat Knight Sandro and redeem him.

Current task completion rate: 65%

What do you mean?

As the difficulty of subsequent tasks increased, these tasks were automatically accepted, and Ye Qing had not checked the tasks immediately. When she reacted, a strong airflow suddenly blew towards them.

"careful!"

Yue Liang raised his shield and stood in front of the two people, but the airflow itself did not cause any harm, it just pushed them back a little.

The center of the airflow explosion was exactly where Edmund, who was previously tied to the tombstone, was.

"That is......"

Ye Qing looked at Edmund who had broken free from the ropes. At this moment, he seemed to be lifted up by some force and slowly floated in the air.

The moment Edmund opened his eyes, the strong current disappeared completely.

Appearing in front of the three people again was an old knight wearing silver-white heavy armor, holding a sword and a shield.

He was a knight who was extremely similar to Edmund. Rather than being similar to Edmund, it would be more accurate to say that Edmund inherited some of the old man's characteristics.

The old man had a murderous aura honed over the years that was something that Edmund, a young man who wasn't even an apprentice knight, couldn't possess.

"Dear adventurer, thank you for defeating my evil thoughts and freeing me from the endless nightmare."

It can be seen that the old man's eyes are on Ye Qing.

After a brief thought, Ye Qing stood up.

"I came here for the truth, and everything I did was just a small effort."

Chapter 17 The Truth

"Interesting statement, young adventurer."

The old man, or Knight Sandro, carried the sword and shield on his back and slowly walked towards the three people. This made Yue Liang, who was already nervous, hold the shield and sword in his hands even tighter.

"So for you..."

When he was still some distance away from the people, Knight Sandro stopped.

This distance allowed both parties to see each other's faces clearly, but not too far to hear each other's words. Knight Sandro spoke calmly while maintaining a considerable distance.

"...What kind of truth do you want to know?"

Looking at the sword that he had once held in his hand, and the Knight Sandro who he had once defeated with all his might, Ye Qing originally came here just for the sword.

The main boss of this exclusive mission was here. Knight Sandro fought a life-and-death battle with Ye Qing at that time.

Knight Sandro at that time was not so easy to talk to, and because of his characteristics as an undead, he seemed to have an instinctive aversion to living things.

But now Knight Sandro was not as crazy as he was then. Instead, he looked at Ye Qing calmly, as if he wanted to see through her soul.

And in front of Ye Qing, a task reminder popped up.
