593: Chapter 6: The House 593: Chapter 6: The House “What are you standing around for!!”
A rumbling voice echoed, as the warrior ‘Muscle Kanna’ swung a huge sword, unleashing a skill and leaping in front of Qianxiu.
But faster than ‘Muscle Kanna’ was the magical attack from ‘Green Deadsuke’!
The other three members of the team also rushed forward, scattering the eight demonized soldiers in an instant.
Qianxiu watched as heads rolled to the ground one by one, his body growing cold.
Something was roaring in his heart…
Suddenly, he came back to his senses, realizing that to them, these were merely 3D game ‘monsters,’ not the living beings he perceived.
He took a deep breath, gripped the Sword in his hand tightly once more, and forced himself to attack a magic warrior.
For him, being in this world, he would inevitably encounter more similar situations, and even player vs.
player bat later on…
Even though in the game PK meant killing only game characters, before him, they seemed like living people.
If he couldn’t overe this hurdle, how would he continue his profession as a Knight in the future?
Would he bee an unremarkable citizen of Central Union City?
The Knight’s Treasured Sword swiftly beheaded the last demonized soldier.
The wave of attack had ended, and Qianxiu felt the slight tremor in his hand, his emotions plex…
Entering the game time wasn’t as wonderful as he imagined.
‘War Song Gudazi’: “Phew, that was close!
Qianxiu, what happened to you just now?”
Qianxiu: “Network lagged.”
‘Green Deadsuke’: “I knew it, standing still like that, you must have disconnected.”
Qianxiu hesitated for a moment, then instinctively said, “Just now…
thanks.”
‘African ~ Didn’t Eat Dog Food Yesterday’: “No need, we’re a team.
Besides, if you die and e back, it’ll be much more troublesome and a waste of time.”
‘Green Deadsuke’: “Stop dawdling, we’ve been overtaken in the rankings!
Let’s see if we can push into the top 20 with our current progress!”
At this moment, a white light streaked across the sky, and at the same time, a huge demonic monster fell directly to the ground.
Everyone looked up and saw that the radiating white light was a pure white Flying Unicorn, and atop the Unicorn, a female archer could be seen faintly.
‘Green Deadsuke’: “Damn!
It’s her!
‘Qian Yu Xian Rou’!
The forum was exploding just now, saying she pulled an SSR ‘Flying Unicorn’!
Didn’t expect it to be true!
How much did this crazy person spend!
Players can now shoot down flying monsters aside from the city wall’s turret!”
‘Quick-Hands Tease*** seems she’s looking for something…
Is she circling up there?”
Qianxiu silently watched the heroic female archer on the pure white Unicorn, suddenly lowering his head: “Let’s keep farming monsters, let’s not waste time.”
“Yeah…
Well, Qianxiu, I’ll taunt and draw the monsters, can you help me?
That way Deadpan Water can use an AoE attack for higher efficiency.” ‘Muscle Kanna’ suddenly said.
“Alright.”
Qianxiu nodded, and the female archer on the Unicorn seemed to have found nothing and soon glided away again.
After adjusting his mood, for some reason, Qianxiu slowed his pace, barely managing to cooperate with the other five members of his team.
The team’s ranking steadily rose as time passed, until the end of this siege battle.
Next was the triumphant return to receive rewards.
The final team ranking wasn’t bad, they managed a last push and successfully stabilized at the seventeenth place in the regional overall rankings.
Though inparable to the first tier top ten, for Qianxiu with no means of spending on microtransactions, it was a decent reward.
His individual ranking was thirty-seventh…
which was satisfactory considering he hadn’t enhanced his equipment before starting.
Squeezed out from the NPC distributing rewards—the place was crowded with people ing to claim theirs.
——’War Song Gudazi’ has sent you a friend request.
——’Quick-Hands Tease*** has sent you…
Qianxiu was stunned to receive five friend requests simultaneously.
He quietly glanced at them and accepted each one…
He wondered how long these five icons would last in his list.
Probably…
not very long.
‘Green Deadsuke’: “Ah…
exhausted!
But the rewards are decent, Guda Zi, want to celebrate a bit?
Have a couple of drinks?”
‘War Song Gudazi’: “Sure, a little celebration is in order, haha!
Qianxiu, if there’s any good quest in the future, remember to call me!”
In-game conversations were always straightforward.
Qianxiu simply replied, “Alright.”
He silently watched ‘War Song Gudazi’ and the others’ characters turn into a flash of white light and disappear before his eyes…
Their so-called celebration was probably happening outside the game world.
Qianxiu quietly watched the emptiness before him and instinctively glanced around…
Apparently, many logged out directly, and some avatars just stood still, probably afk.
The previously bustling reward area suddenly turned desolate.
Qianxiu looked up at Central Union City’s sky, the setting sun after the battle was like blood, and the damaged city walls were slowly recovering, everything visible to the naked eye, magical and splendid.
Yet he had an illusion, as if the sky here was dim, the streets also dim…
Here, it seemed no different from his shabby rented room.
Qianxiu began to feel hungry, the type of hunger that turned his stomach, painfully so.
He gazed at the distant sunset, murmuring to himself, “When was the last time…
I went out to eat?”
…
In a spacious bedroom, a woman with a loose garment covering her body exhaled lightly.
She glanced at the clock beside the table, got up, and turned off the puter screen—ignoring the pile of friend request notifications flashing on the game interface.
The long sweater barely covered the very short length of her thighs.
She preferred to not impose too many constraints when at home.
Adjusting the curtain of the floor-to-ceiling window a little bit, a sliver of orange light streamed into the room.
The reflection on the glass was of a young and beautiful figure.
The phone rang suddenly, and the woman frowned, glancing at a name in her contacts, ultimately choosing to answer—it was a deep, male voice.
“Xiao Rou, I won’t be home for dinner tonight.”
The woman…
named Xiao Rou, said displeased: “At that woman’s house again?”
“None of your business, just stay home.”
Xiao Rou sneered, “Home?
What home?
You’re gone in the morning and at night…
Tell me, what home?”
“I might not e back tonight, that’s it then, I have dinner arranged, don’t have much time.”
The man quickly hung up.
Xiao Rou threw the phone with force, smashing it against the glass of the makeup table, shattering the glass, distorting her reflection.
She closed the curtains tightly and dove onto the luxurious big bed, falling asleep immediately.
