Infinity, I became stronger by practicing with the female characters

Suddenly, a look of surprise appeared on Asuna's face, and then she came to her senses.

"The other player in the human camp is you?"

"It's me." Dongfang Shangcan nodded and admitted it calmly.

The two sides were in the same camp and there was no conflict, so they talked frankly.

Of course, not everything is told to others. We are just temporarily in the same camp.

Who knows, the next derivative world might become enemies.

Although with so many players, it's more likely that they will never see each other again.

"By the way, what is your main task?" Dongfang Shangcan asked curiously after some communication.

He really wanted to know how many times his main mission would be multiplied after a mission difficulty multiplier card was issued, and to roughly estimate what level of reward he would get.

"The main quest requires me to kill a player from the ghoul camp and expel ten A-rank ghouls and three S-rank ghouls within two years. Of course, if you, Yuebai-senpai, can wipe out all the players from the ghoul camp, then I will automatically complete the player-killing quest."

Although she was curious about why Dongfang Shangcan asked this question, Asuna still answered honestly.

Oriental Ginseng: (-'`-;)→(°ー°〃)→(▼へ▼メ)

'paradise!!!'

Dongfang Shangcan, who felt that he had been cheated by Paradise, roared loudly in his heart.

Chapter 140 One Thousand One Hundred and Thirty-Five Times

【I am here】

To Dongfang Shangcan's surprise, just as he was roaring in his heart, a prompt popped up in Paradise to respond to him.

"Paradise, is there something wrong with the difficulty of my main quest? Of course, I don't mean to blame you, I'm just a little curious."

Different from those protagonists who dared to yell at the system and the main god, Dongfang Shangcan emphasized the importance of following his heart when the paradise prompt suddenly popped up.

After completing the main quest, players will be rewarded with a World Key (derivative world 710012475567), a physical power talent, and two authority items. Still have questions?

Needless to say, Dongfang Shangshen already possessed two world keys. Physical magical talent was also a rare and valuable asset, but how good it was depended on what Paradise gave him.

Permission items are different from ordinary items. They represent special permissions that players have within the park. For example, he used the 'Mission Difficulty Multiplier Card' and the 'Skill Bar Expansion Scroll'.

There are also the binding props that Tie Hanhan used on him, and the one that pulled Dongfang Shangcan and him into a derivative world. They all belong to the category of authority props. Naturally, the more of such things, the better.

"No, Paradise, you are the best Paradise." Dongfang Shangcan said in his heart with a smile on his face.

【I know】

Asuna felt strange looking at Dongfang Shangshen standing in front of her, whose expression suddenly changed from angry to well-behaved and then to happy again, but she kept silent.

As a player, don't be too curious. Especially when it comes to those who are much stronger than you, you should curb your curiosity. This is a little trick for surviving in Paradise that Asuna learned in a certain derivative world.

"There's something wrong with this park..."

Not sure whether Paradise was still paying attention to him, Dongfang Shangcan quickly stopped his divergent thinking and forced himself not to think about Paradise anymore. That existence was not something he could touch for the time being.

"As agreed, come meet me in District 7 in a week. Until then, let's have some free time."

Looking at Dongfang Shangcan's back as he left without looking back, Asuna murmured softly, "What a strange guy."

After what happened to Paradise, Dongfang Shangcan was in a complicated mood and was too lazy to continue attending the dinner.

After greeting the acquaintances at the dinner, he left the hall with Leah and came to the CCG cemetery with a bouquet of flowers.

Unlike the lively and noisy dinner party, the cemetery with towering tombstones looks so desolate and lonely.

His fingertips rubbed the rough frosted texture of the newly erected tombstones, and he could clearly feel the cool touch of the tombstones.

Suddenly, he stopped in front of a tombstone, looked at the gray photo on the tombstone, silent.

Leia stood quietly behind him without disturbing him.

After a long time, Dongfang Shangcan sighed deeply, as if he was talking to himself or to Leia.

"This guy's name is Tomohito Nakagawa. He had a drink with me a week ago. He excitedly told me that he was going to be a father. Lately, he's been arguing with his wife about what name to give the baby, and we're having a hard time reaching an agreement."

Leia glanced at the photo on the tombstone and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, if I had known his relationship with the master earlier, I would have sent Muzan and the others to rescue him sooner."

"It's okay, it's not your fault." Dongfang Shangcan waved his hand at Leah. "These were my instructions. You just followed my instructions. It's not your fault. The puppets aren't designed to be immortal. To preserve their combat power, it's necessary to have the investigators test the strength of the players and ghouls."

It was because of the investigators' sacrifice that we were able to achieve such a result with zero casualties."

"only..."

Dongfang Shangcan continued walking in the cemetery, his eyes sliding across the gray-white photos. Looking at those faces, some familiar, some unfamiliar, some familiar, some unfamiliar, his heart grew heavier.

"One thousand one hundred and thirty-five!"

"This is the number of people who died in the two battles in Districts 11 and 23 three days ago."

"This isn't just a pile of numbers. They might have been taciturn, serious fathers; stubborn young men who didn't like their families; young people with hopes for the future; the pillars of their families' bloodlines, fathers' children, their children's fathers. But they all died that night.

When one person dies, parts of many others die with him."

"And then repeat it 1,135 times."

"And I could have saved them, even if not all of them, at least most of them. But in order to achieve my goal, I didn't do that.

I used to think I was different from those players who treated all the characters in the derivative world as NPCs, but we are actually no different.

It's just that I knew a lot of the content in advance, so I felt sympathy for certain characters. It was the kind of sympathy that was condescending and seemed like charity.

Leah, tell me, am I a very bad person?

Dongfang Shangcan slowly sat down on the ground, his eyes lowered, as if he couldn't bear to look directly at the people on the tombstones. His tone was unprecedentedly low, and there was a hint of sobbing in his voice.

Leia had never seen such an Oriental ginseng before.

She half-knelt on the ground, holding Dongfang Shangcan tightly in her arms. The strength was so great that it seemed as if she wanted to crush Dongfang Shangcan in her arms, but it gave Dongfang Shangcan a very warm and fulfilled feeling.

"It's okay. No matter what kind of person the master is, I will accompany you. If the master is a devil who does all kinds of evil, then I will be the witch who helps him do evil. When you kill people, I will help you pass the knife. When you set a fire, I will help you add fuel to the fire.

If the master wants to be a brave warrior against evil, then I will be a monk who heals the dying and the wounded. When you fight monsters, I will help you improve your status, and when you save people, I will help you make potions.

"so..."

"Please don't be sad. The master's judgment is always correct. They will die because of the players and ghouls in the ghoul camp, and because of their own lack of ability.

A special investigator like Yukinori Shinohara is still alive..."

Leia gently stroked Dongfang Shangcan's back and comforted him softly.

"Really? Don't try to conquer others when they are wavering! What if I fall head over heels in love with you?" Dongfang Shangcan, whose emotions gradually stabilized, said jokingly and slowly hugged Leia.

"Then I will be extremely happy, because I fell in love with you at the first sight of my master." Leah said seriously.

"You're either a fledgling or just lustful. It's definitely not love at first sight."

Dongfang Shangcan retorted shyly to Leah's direct response.

"Whether it's a fledgling complex or just lust at first sight, it's normal for me to be attracted to such a beautiful master!" Leah said seriously.

"That's true!"

Dongfang Shangcan, who was shy when being praised, let go of Leia, stood up straight, and the tips of his ears turned a little red.

"Master, should we continue our research on the Dragon? If we really use the Dragon, more people will die than just these few."

Leah patted her dusty knees and stood up.

Dongfang Shangcan was silent for a moment, picked up the bouquet he had placed on the ground, and began to roughly pull off the delicate flowers in the bouquet.

'continue'

'give up'

'continue'

......

'put...'

Looking at the yellow rose that represented giving up, Dongfang Shangcan remained silent for a long time.

But in the end, he threw the petals in his hand hard, pulled out the yellow rose from the bouquet that was only left with the branches, and placed it in front of Tomohito Nakagawa's grave.

"Go on." Dongfang Shangcan said.

"Yes, sir." Leah responded.

The night wind blew up the petals scattered on the ground. The petals circled around the two of them for a while and then drifted away into the distance.

Chapter 141 The Blood Wolf Squad is in a Dead End

On the seventh night after the Bronze Tree Operation in Area 11, the Blood Wolf Squad, arranged by Izumi Takatsuki, set sail on a boat.

Faced with the investigators who are now hunting down ghouls on a large scale, Takatsuki Izumi ordered the Bronze Tree ghouls to lurk in Ryujima for a while, and asked Kano Akihata to create more ghouls to increase their combat power, and the Blood Wolf Squad was also asked to keep up.

Blood Wolf stood on the deck of the fishing boat, looking at the rushing sea and the outline of the island in the distance, and inexplicably had a bad premonition.

After thinking for a long time, he found the Lord of Faith who was holding a big black book and muttering in a mysterious tone, and handed him a jade scroll.

"If something unexpected happens next, don't hesitate to leave.

After you leave, you can do whatever you want. I won’t force you to do anything.”

"Captain, you are such a good man. Let's believe in our Lord together."

My Lord tilted his head and looked at the Blood Wolf with a distorted and crazy expression.

"Forget it. I trust the shield in my hand more than the so-called gods." Blood Wolf decisively rejected the invitation to join the church as always from the Lord of Faith.

As time slowly passed, three fishing boats sailing on the sea slowly approached the shore.

The Blood Wolf Squad followed the many ghouls of the bronze tree and slowly moved towards the center of the island.

After passing through a dark forest and arriving at an open plain, Blood Wolf's right eyelid began to twitch wildly as he looked at the dilapidated building in front of him. He wasn't a superstitious person, but he always felt that something was wrong.

"Wait a moment..."

Before Blood Wolf could stop the team, Fansi Roma, who was mixed in with the bronze tree ghouls, took action directly.

A large number of kagune burst out from her abdomen and pierced Huanyu, the fastest member of the Blood Wolf Squad. These days, Takatsuki Izumi had learned from Kano Akihiro how they escaped the double encirclement of the CCG and the organization under the command of Dongfang Shangcan.

In order to prevent the other party from escaping using the same method, Huanyu is a higher priority target for attack than Captain Xuelang and the unpredictable Lord Xinwo.

Although Huanyu tried his best to avoid Fanshi Roma's attack, his speed was indeed fast enough, and most of the attacks that should have made more than a dozen large holes in his body were dodged.

But he was caught off guard and still couldn't completely avoid the attack, and his right leg was cut off.

"Ahhhh! My legs hurt...it hurts...help me...Rongguang..."

Holding his broken leg, Huanyu rolled on the ground, wailing.

The teammate he asked for help, Rong Guang Yaoyan, was currently under attack from Shen Dai Cha Rong and was struggling to protect himself.

The archer Bai Ri was in even greater danger when Duo Duoliang got close to him.

As the captain, Blood Wolf waved a huge shield and barely defended against Takatsuki Izumi who had entered the Hezhe state.

The best performers of the Blood Wolf Squad were Shingo-sama and Bai Jie. Facing the attacks of the SS-rank ghoul Donato Pulupura, Shingo-sama handled them with ease, while Bai Jie also managed to fight back against Noroi's attacks.

"Ghoul!!! Why are you attacking us? Aren't we allies?"

Raising his shield to block Takatsuki Izumi's huge claws from bottom to top, Blood Wolf asked angrily.

"Hahaha, aren't allies meant to be betrayed, you little bug?"

In the Hezer mode, Takatsuki Izumi fought extremely brutally and crazily. Facing the questioning of Blood Wolf, she attacked madly while laughing at the other party wantonly.

"You guy!!!"

Blood Wolf suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. He took a step forward, braving Takatsuki Izumi's attack like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey, his eyes blazing with hatred. His rage seemed to burn the entire world.
