Reborn as a short-lived loli who can only live for three years

"The ninth cycle..." Wan Yexi repeated this interesting statement.

“Actually, there’s more.” Ye Jiyan added.

It has been repeated so many times, but they have no memory of it... or maybe they do? The occasional sense of déjà vu is proof of that.

"Compared to this..." Faced with this shocking fact, Tokieda chose to put it aside for the time being. After all, it had been repeated so many times, so it wouldn't hurt to chat a little more. "It turns out that you can use magic, too."

"It doesn't matter." Ye Jiyan smiled mysteriously.

This guy has been deliberately hiding his strength for a long time, but it was not until just now that they had a glimpse of his true level.

Illusion projection, placing coordinates, interfering with memory in the great illusion... the usage is vivid and lifelike.

It’s a pity that their magical properties are different, otherwise he could compare the strength of the small flame released by Wan Ye Xi.

"We have gone through this cycle so many times and still haven't solved the problem... What difficulties have we encountered?"

The tower is right in front of us, and the exploration team members who have joined us have already started to investigate and climb upwards.

"The only enemy was defeated, and we met the princess on the high tower." Ye Jiyan explained the marking information of the previous rounds of cycles, "Then..."

"Then?"

“Then something unexpected happens, and the cycle starts all over again.”

"What accident?" Shi Zhimeng asked.

"I don't know. I didn't find any relevant marks."

Although he was unable to answer their most curious question, Wan Yexi expressed his understanding: "It seems that an 'accident' did happen, which is why you didn't have time to mark it."

"When I heard it would repeat, I suddenly wasn't so nervous anymore..." Ying muttered softly again.

"I just don't know...how many times we can go through this cycle."

"We can only go and see it in person! Let's go too."

Their memories were unreliable at the moment, and there was no point in staying there and guessing, so they followed the team into the tower at the end and climbed all the way up.

The sounds of fighting and screaming continued to be heard from the top floor. The team members seemed to be caught in a tough battle, but everything was just as Ye Jiyan said. When the last few people reached the top floor, the only enemy was defeated.

The floor of the top floor was covered with a pitch-black cloak, and a tall, spring-shaped monster was lying in the middle, lifeless.

Ivy stood at the edge of the terrace, staring at them with complicated and vigilant eyes.

"Maybe it starts from here." Ye Jiyan reminded them that unexpected nodes could occur at any time.

"What's wrong with her? She doesn't seem to recognize us. Is it because of what we are wearing?"

"I'm afraid it's not that simple. The battle just now has already explained everything. She thinks we are the enemy, and that monster is her own kind."

"And you guys pay attention, she has a knife in her hand." Wan Yexi reminded.

The current situation is very obvious. They are actually in opposition to Ivy.

Ying was confused again: "Is there something wrong with Avi's eyes?"

"Haha, it has nothing to do with the eyes. This is an illusion after all. What we can see will also be affected by the illusion mechanism. Aren't we also masked men?"

"That's right."

"So in Xiao Wei's eyes, we... are the monsters?"

Chu Yu tried to imagine a scene: Ivy, the only protector, and... the monsters that kept rushing over.

Now, with her only protector killed, she is surrounded by 'monsters'.

"We don't know what the conditions are for triggering the loop yet. To be on the safe side, let's subdue her first."

"Be careful she doesn't jump down... I'll go and remind others not to act rashly." As if recalling some sense of déjà vu, Chu Yu walked towards the living people thoughtfully.

The remaining companions quickly arranged their respective division of labor.

Wan Ye Xi conjured up a small flame and burned Ivy's hand.

Taking the falling of the dagger as a signal, Tokieda rushed forward first and grabbed Ivy's wrist. The others followed closely, dragging Ivy off the terrace and holding her down.

"Xiao Wei! Look carefully, it's us!" Shi Zhimeng tried to wake her up.

Throughout the whole process, Ivy remained calm. Although she tried to struggle, she did not call for help.

But the fearful look still revealed Ivy's mood at the moment.

"Sure enough, in her eyes, we are monsters." Wan Yexi stared at Ivy's eyes.

And what those eyes reflected was a monster with a spring-like body.

"What should I do then?" Shi Zhimeng was at a loss for a moment.

Suddenly, Wan Yexi noticed that the "monster" in Ivy's eyes moved.

In Ivy's eyes, these monsters suddenly opened their bloody mouths and pounced on her!

Is this the condition that triggers the loop? !

Wan Yexi looked at Ye Jiyan anxiously, trying to convey his discovery to him, but everything happened too fast.

The girl beneath him began to tremble. This seemed to mean that in another world, another dream, the monster was eating, tearing, and destroying Ivy.

And so the dream ended again.

……

……

"Why do I feel... a little weird?" Tokieda Meng said this hesitantly.

She looked up at the tower. The thick white fog was hanging very low. She thought the fog would dissipate a lot after she left the city, but it didn't.

"Me too." This time, Wan Yexi was the first to express this sense of disobedience, "We must have been here before."

Looking sideways, Ye Jiyan was sorting out the magic power in his hands with a serious expression.

They remained silent in tacit agreement until the chaotic magic became linear.

"That's right." Ye Jiyan finally spoke, "We are stuck in a cycle, but I have thought of a way."

"Really? So reliable!" Shi Zhimeng was very surprised.

For example, as soon as she found a set of papers, her classmates had already sorted out the answers.

...

Ye Jiyan synchronized the details and key points of the loop to everyone. After listening, everyone fell into deep thought.

"In other words... as long as Xiao Wei thinks we are attacking her? Regardless of whether we do anything or not, the monster in her eyes will take action and attack her?"

"Will the illusion in her eyes come true?"

"This is just my guess." Ye Jiyan added lightly.

"So what solution did you come up with?"

"It has been repeated so many times, which means that the previous method is not working. This time we have to completely change our tactics. We must first figure out... the origin of that protector."

Wan Ye Xi had a guess: "Could it be because the protector thinks we are enemies, so in Weiwei's eyes, we have become enemies?"

"How should we solve this problem? Should we negotiate peace with the monster this time?"

In the previous few times, everyone was trying hard to fight their way out, but now this idea seems a bit strange.

"Actually." Facing everyone's embarrassment, Ye Jiyan continued, "I also left a mark on her. Maybe... she also remembered something."

"...You are so reliable." Shi Zhimeng praised.
