But it doesn’t matter. If we can’t get the information here, we can still get it from other channels.

In this kind of game, there is more than one way to obtain the same information.

For example, after Ryougi Shiki failed the judgment, she started a conversation with the owner of the store.

[[Communication] I'm curious what this green juice is made of. Can you tell me?]

Click on the above dialogue option.

The character with the maximum points in psychology easily passed the dice test and got the information out of the boss.

The narration sounded again at this moment.

From your conversation with the boss, you've noticed something fishy about the village's sacrificial supplies. It seems there's a secret hidden somewhere.

[You learned from the boss the location of the Dragon Lady Cult.]

A task window pops up in the upper right corner of the screen.

[Mission: Find the secret of the Dragon Girl Cult]

Judging from the current progress, it is very easy for them to trigger this role mission.

But the problem arises again. This act of bravely entering the sect will definitely be accompanied by fighting.

Because of the arrival of an unknown existence, the game starts with entering the second chapter of the original game.

It’s like in an RPG game, you skip the beginner level and jump directly to the later stages of the story.

Not to mention, they have to keep the character's sanity level at all times.

A large number of spells and equipment that counter the system in this game cannot be used.

Once their character enters the battle process, they are bound to lose.

Aozaki Touko: "You don't have to worry about that."

While the two were playing the game, Aozaki Touko, who had been silent the whole time, raised her glasses slightly.

Aozaki Touko: "While you were talking, I'd already figured out a few of the game's mechanics. It doesn't really matter if I die a few times, so I can try it out bit by bit. But..."

The wise puppeteer looked at the screen in deep thought for a while, then turned and looked at Kurogiri Kanko and Ryougi Shiki with a smile.

Aozaki Touko: "Didn't you two just talk about punishment? This game has been changed beyond recognition. There's no need for an introduction."

As she spoke, the smile on her face grew brighter:

"How about a competition? The three of us take turns challenging the tasks in the game. If we all fail, this round will not count. The competition will continue until someone completes the task. The one who successfully completes the task can punish the other two losers."

Ryougi Shiki: "What if I control the character directly and complete the mission in the game?"

Aozaki Touko: "That proves the mission was too easy and was skipped directly. The winner of each game can continue to control their own character to play the game. This is also a test for the winner. The missions he passed in one go will not be counted as penalties. But as long as he fails and the later person completes the mission, he will become the loser and be punished."

Ryougi Shiki: "So if I feel I'm highly skilled, I can deliberately fail and let Touko and Kurogiri take over the game and do their own tasks. If none of you succeed, I'll complete it first, and I'll still have the right to punish the others."

Aozaki Touko: "That's right, so this also needs to be weighed. See if you want to take the risk of being punished by others and seize the right to punish others."

Ryougi Shiki: "Sounds good."

The cold girl nodded and continued with her mission.

Heitong Xianhu: "..."

Kurogiri Kanko: "Shiki, do you agree so?"

As he spoke, he turned around and looked at Aozaki Touko beside him with a somewhat strange look. He had been taking everything seriously at the beginning, but now he was letting himself go.

Ryougi Shiki: "Kurogi, you really want to play this game, right?"

The cold girl rolled her eyes at Hei Tong Xian Hu.

Hei Tong Xian Hu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded: "That's true."

He turned to look at Aozaki Touko, who seemed to have already prepared something. "So, as for the punishment, what kind do you want?"

Aozaki Touko: "Since it's a punishment, it must be infinite. Otherwise, the so-called competition will be meaningless. The winner will be the king of the King's Game. Not only that, I can also use magic to provide various convenient effects."

Ryougi Shiki: "For example?"

Aozaki Touko: "For example, Ryougi Shiki, you can make Kurogiri Kanko unable to hesitate and be forced to express his thoughts about you immediately."

The wise puppeteer said, smiling as he looked at Kurogiri Kanko: "For example, Kurogiri Kanko, you can make Ryougi Shiki completely stop lying to you and tell you everything that's hidden in her heart. You can make her go from being a tsundere to being a straight shooter."

Aozaki Touko: "Take me for example, you two can even let me say in front of you that Aoko and I love each other."

Hei Tong Xian Hu twitched his lips: "I think this is a bit too harsh."

When Aozaki Touko mentioned the first two, she was moved, but when the other party said that the two could give her orders, Kurogiri Kanko hesitated.

Aozaki Touko: "I don't think there's any problem. Don't worry, I'm asking you to be a little harsh on me so that you can increase your tolerance threshold for my orders. This is a psychological tactic."

The wise puppeteer tells his strategy:

"If you want to get something from you, you always have to pay a price, right? It's okay. Even if I say that Qingzi and I love each other, it doesn't mean that's the reality. After all, compared to this, the fact that I used Qingzi to establish a connection with you is more infuriating."

She raised her glasses slightly as she spoke, flashing a bright smile to Hei Tong Xian Hu: "I actually really want to experience the feeling of having no control over my emotions."

Hei Tong Xian Hu: "I feel even more weak when you say that."

He looked at the orange in front of him and started complaining.

However, after Aozaki Touko made a promise, his mentality quickly calmed down.

If Orange wants to play, there’s nothing wrong with him playing with the other person.

He turned to look at Ryougi Shiki, asking for her opinion with his eyes.

Ryougi Shiki: "Then let's have a competition."

The cold girl responded without changing her expression.

This game was made by her. Although the content inside was filled in beyond recognition due to the existence of the game, she is the creator of this game after all. How can she be worse than Aozaki Touko?

In addition, she was actually quite interested in what Orange proposed, which was to compete with Hei Tong Xian Hu.

In fighting games, it's really boring to see one-sided crushing happen too many times.

Not to mention, there are things like betting that come next.

Ryougi Shiki: "If Kurogiri loses, then you and Orange will pretend to be cats in front of me."

She unilaterally stated her request and handed the handle in her hand directly to Hei Tong Xianhu.

Heitong Xianhu: "..."

So Shiki heard about what happened in Pokémon Land.

Is this another way of complaining to me?

He glanced at the cold girl with a strange look, but as he felt the handle in his hand, his attention was focused on the screen in front of him.

Whatever the reason, it was his turn to play the game.

P.S.: I will update 10,000 more chapters, including what I promised yesterday and today~ Please vote~ (reach out)

ps: 1k more will be added tomorrow

Volume 1: Chapter 159: NPC with Dual Personality

Kurogane Kanko didn't care at all about pretending to be a cat in front of Ryougi Shiki.

At worst, I can just become a cat and act coquettishly in Shi’s arms.

Taking advantage of the other person in this way might have a unique flavor.

Of course, Kurogane Kanko was also a little eager to win, and he also wanted to do whatever he wanted to Ryougi Shiki.

But that was a later thing. Now he had no idea about the game mechanics, and he was basically just giving up his life with the character that skipped levels.

In that case, just relax and play the game well.

Because of the intervention of an unknown existence that descended upon the game, the entire village in the game now seemed to have come alive, and almost every NPC passing by had a corresponding task triggered.

To be honest, Hei Tong Xian Hu still found this very interesting.

He had long wanted to explore the stories of these NPCs and see what was inside them.

So, Hei Tong Xian Hu controlled the character and started walking around the village.

While chatting with the villagers, he quickly accepted the first side quest.

That was the quest related to The King in Yellow.

It tells the story of a returning home girl named Nancy.

Expressing sympathy during the conversation will trigger the quest to help her find her lost boyfriend in town.

After finding his boyfriend, we learned from his reply that he actually ran away from his girlfriend out of fear.

He claimed that his girlfriend was being possessed by an unknown entity.

That existence can predict everything, that existence is almost omnipotent, that existence can knead his girlfriend at will like a toy.

His girlfriend was already dead, completely dead the moment the guy woke up.

From the boyfriend's words, one can hear his inner fear and a hint of hatred that is hard to conceal.

He invited players to join him in attacking his girlfriend.

He threatened to kill the monster that took over his girlfriend's body to avenge her.

At this time, if the player does not respond to it for the time being and chooses to return to the girl named Nancy and ask her further questions, he will get another story.

From Nancy's story, we can learn some of the secrets she has been hiding.

Her abnormality began in childhood when her parents accidentally obtained the script of "The King in Yellow".

They gradually went crazy while studying the script.

Before they died, they sacrificed the unborn Nancy and called upon the king in their hearts.

That accident gave birth to another personality different from Nancy's own.

The original personality had been sleeping all the time and did not make any unnecessary moves.

But ever since she fell in love, that personality became jealous that she had a boyfriend and wanted to take over her body, replacing her and taking away everything she had.

But it doesn't matter now, she is back and she has broken up with the other personality in her dream.

Just like a mental patient defeating his inner demons, she has come back again.

The panicked girl begged the player in a pitiful voice with a hint of begging to bring her boyfriend back to her.

Please, bring him back. I'd give everything I have if you could help me get him back.

The clear voice is so pitiful.

As long as the player does what she asks, she will give the player enough rewards, and is even willing to offer her own heirloom, which is the "King in Yellow" script left by her parents.

Thus, divergent choices arise.

Will the player choose to trust the man and join him in attacking Nancy? Or will the player trust Nancy and tell him the man's boyfriend's location and try to reconcile the two?

The Nancy in front of me keeps saying that she is the original Nancy. Could it be that she is the one who has taken over her old position?

Regarding this option, Hei Tong Xian Hu was not in a hurry to make a decision.

Thanks to the diligent programming of the unknown existence that descended into the game, all the characters in the game are related to each other.

Hei Tong Xian Hu continued to search in the village and found several people who were familiar with Nancy. Gradually, from clues, he learned the whole picture of the incident.

Thirteen years ago, Nancy's parents held a ceremony at the temple of Ciyue Dragon Girl in the village.

According to the records left in the ruined temple, the ceremony did not fail.

Like a miracle, the ritual to summon the King in Yellow actually succeeded.

Nancy, who was sacrificed only for the baby, has the power to see the future and even change everything.

She has become almost omnipotent, and the fragile modern society allows her to get everything she wants at will.
