In Dawn Cicada’s mind, several scenes of BS Rita flashed through.
She traveled alone between two worlds.
She said to Her Dragon, "I might never be able to give you all my trust. This isn’t my fault, and it’s not yours either."
She walked through a villa, all to herself, and told her the lantern, "You don’t belong to anyone, and you don’t need anyone to belong to you, right?"
She stood high on the battlefield, shouting, "Fight to the death!" ordering all her kin to never put down their weapons...
She wrote the World Sigh in the captain’s room...
She let the aliens take the World Graveyard at BS.
The pure white snake’s bone transford into a scepter, with faint red threads visible, and white petals ford the scepter’s tip, with black rose-shaped gems adorning it.
A loud crash, and the scepter was thrust into the ground.
Combo Skill—[Benevolent Ruler and Tyrant]!
[Benevolent Ruler and Tyrant]: "You have two choices: follow , or let beco your nightmare." When the scepter appears, the more kin of the user of the belief skill, the greater the bonuses they gain. The user of this skill can share its effects with other targets.
Rita opened her eyes. Her attribute averages, restricted by the ga, had skyrocketed from 1000 to 20000.
Dawn Cicada’s eyes also flickered with satisfaction. The skill effect was powerful, and since it was an auxiliary skill, it didn’t matter who took the lead.
As both of them reveled in the huge boost from this skill, imagining how much more powerful it would be once their original attributes were restored, a stamring voice interrupted them.
Sea Pony: "I... I’m going to die."
After saying that, Sea Pony slapped itself. It only had three words available, but due to its stutter, it wasted one.
Rita and Dawn Cicada simultaneously distanced themselves, shaking off each other’s hands before looking at Sea Pony, but without needing to ask, they both understood why Sea Pony said that.
The scepter was still there, but the ground beneath it had cracked for dozens of ters, extending into the flower field, half of the flowers being destroyed by the energy shockwaves.
Not only that, [Flower Crown Murder], which had been floating in the air, was also half destroyed, with countless petals falling.
The flower field here was special in that it consisted of juvenile flowers. Since the grown Vineborne flowers each had their own abilities, being too close would interfere with their skill training.
While both of them were stunned, a familiar voice called out from nearby. "Did Quiet Mountain strike?"
Rita and Dawn Cicada froze. Neither dared to turn around. They looked down at their toes and silently dismissed the combo skill.
The black tips of their boots and the wine-red cloak hems slowly stopped in front of their feet.
Deceitful Bloom’s voice still carried a hint of laughter: "What have I done wrong to make you think I have a good temper?"
"Was it because I didn’t properly teach you when you insulted as trash?" She leaned slightly toward Dawn Cicada.
The scent of Flower of Deceit pressed toward Rita, and the voice nearly brushed against her ear: "Or was it when you stole my race trait and dared to look down on that I didn’t kill you?"
Silver long hair glimred in the light of Starsea as Deceitful Bloom’s beautiful lower face filled Rita’s view.
When Deceitful Bloom stood upright, creating space, Rita and Dawn Cicada instinctively moved half a step toward each other, like two little animals trying to huddle together for warmth.
What iron thrones, what looking down on gods... it was all youthful rebellion.
"Now, imdiately, right now, restore the flower field." Deceitful Bloom’s voice grew softer. "Especially my [Flower Crown Murder]. There are 32,852 petals. If even one is missing, use your own to replace it."
The last part was clearly aid at BS Rita.
Seeing both of them lower their heads, looking like quails, Deceitful Bloom gently asked, "Do I need to say ’please’?"
Rita and Dawn Cicada quickly rushed off, dodging Deceitful Bloom as they headed for the flower field.
They had no idea how to restore it, but at least they were getting away from Fury Deceitful Bloom!
Even the other players who had been watching quickly sat up, pretending to focus on their studies.
Rita first called Nivalis, asking her to use [Tail Tip] to reverse ti, but to her surprise, Nivalis simply shook her head. "This is a divine realm; I’m not qualified to change the ti here."
Fortunately, Sea Pony ca over at that mont and handed Dawn Cicada and BS Rita each a box. Inside were ergency repair thods for the vines and flowers, as well as corresponding tools and potions.
After delivering the tools, Sea Pony gave BS Rita a thumbs-up: "Strong."
When passing Dawn Cicada, Sea Pony generously gave her one too: "You’re strong too."
Just a mont ago, they had been so confident, but now, they were obedient.
Rita received the planting thod and repair guide for [Flower Crown Murder], so of which she had seen in Beacon’s World Sigh, but only briefly. After all, there were so many flowers in Beacon. She had only had ti to get a rough overview. If she had to learn how to cultivate each flower, writing Beacon’s World Sigh alone would take years.
But even with just the basics, she was certain that no one in Beacon had studied a flower as thoroughly as Deceitful Bloom had studied [Flower Crown Murder]. The thick notebook contained 30% of the entries about the flower’s daily changes after planting [Flower Crown Murder].
It was even divided into several sections of the flower field, experinting with how different weather conditions affected [Flower Crown Murder]’s mood.
It also occasionally included a few lines of Deceitful Bloom’s random thoughts.
"Went into battle again."
"These juvenile flowers are so eager to fight, I’ll have to move them further away when they grow up."
"[Flower Crown Murder] lost a fight and ca crying to my window—what a strange sight."
"Watering [Heartless Temptation], they complained to that [Flower Crown Murder] likes to steal magic crystals from their flower fields at night... does [Flower Crown Murder] have this bad habit?"
"There’s even a [Flower Crown Murder] under my pillow, how did it get in there?"
Rita read it with great interest.
[Flower Crown Murder] liked to destroy the flowers it didn’t like, but the flowers in Deceitful Bloom’s garden had all grown for so ti. The newly sprouted [Flower Crown Murder] lost more often than it won, so Deceitful Bloom had beco quite skilled at healing [Flower Crown Murder].
She first gathered all the damaged [Flower Crown Murder] flowers from the ground. Nivalis and B80 rushed to help, but Rita refused their assistance.
Instead, she scattered her own [Flower Crown Murder] to help collect the petals from the ground. Her Vine was an extension of her consciousness, which allowed her to count the petals while directly checking the condition of each one.
As Rita continued gathering the petals, she opened the flower care journal and continued reading.
The more she read, the more puzzled her expression beca. Was [Flower Crown Murder] really this difficult to take care of?
It was temperantal, sure, but to properly care for it, she had to use a soft brush to apply nutrients to each petal. Just watering wasn’t enough, as it caused the nutrients to be unevenly distributed, which made [Flower Crown Murder] angry.
As she read, the words in Vineborne script suddenly transford into red petals, scattering into the air.
Deceitful Bloom’s voice ca through, sharp and commanding: "Stop looking at irrelevant things."
