079·Unfinished

The so-called massacre did not happen.

The only ones who died were Ya Ge and Teng Ge.

One sacrificed his life to prolong the lives of others. Another gloriously completed his mission, perishing in the endless blazing flames...

Of course, it's not a heavy story.

Because after a while, the dead will be resurrected from the camp.

However, the fact that Xiaolu was offline did not cause any discussion among the players.

Because the raging flames were too exaggerated, especially with Yago walking with a sword, burning the earth along the way, coupled with Yu Man's equally powerful ice magic bombardment, they naturally evaporated a lot of water mist.

Therefore, a girl's disconnection did not actually bother anyone.

In contrast——

"The flames are gone."

"Fuck, it worked."

"Brother Ya is awesome, Brother Teng is awesome."

"Oh my god, we really can't understand the president's tactics."

Although it is not known how it was done, the flames did disappear.

The guild members who had come along had all understood the dungeon's mechanics, at least knowing that the goal was to "tame the flaming sword." Now that the flames had vanished, it naturally signified success. So, of course, everyone cheered with joy.

They know there are rewards to be claimed, but they don’t understand the cost or the process—nor do they need to.

The only one who realized something was Yago, who had just opened his eyes in the tent and seemed to be surrounded by flames.

He looked at his hands first - there was nothing wrong with them, just like usual.

There was no fire, not the kind of intensity that was so intense that the sense of touch was fused.

Everything before seemed like a dream and an illusion, only the living self is still here.

After taking some time to calm down, Yago first opened the guild chat bar and typed in:

"Brother Eel, am I not lame?"

"Awesome, Brother Ya." Yu Man immediately typed in response.

Then, Yago quietly switched to the private chat: "Brother Eel, did you get the sword...?"

About five seconds later, Yu Mancai replied to the private message.

It seems that one can still see Yu Man’s beautiful face showing surprise, admiration and helplessness.

"Awesome...Yago." She did not deny it.

"hey-hey."

Yago personally delivered the sword and experienced everything firsthand. He was the kind of person who had immersed himself in the game for decades and successfully managed the real world.

He realized it wasn't surprising.

"Haha, Brother Eel, that's awesome. I'll keep it a secret."

……

Meanwhile, Yu Man sat on the pit with his feet dangling in the air, simply trying to catch his breath.

She had used up all her extra magic power to fight the sword's blazing power.

Today, the bows that once adorned the girl’s wrists have vanished into thin air.

Not only that, she also overdrew her magic power and is now unable to use any magic.

Either die to reset the status, or constantly replenish magic potions to restore it bit by bit.

But Yu Man didn't want to die - even if it was fake.

"President—" Brother Teng came out of the camp first and asked, "Does this count as a clearance?"

"Ah."

I did complete the game, which is not difficult for a comic.

Brother Teng kept muttering to himself. He was quite interested in the mechanism, but couldn't figure it out.

"I don't know why you did that just now, or what Yago has done, but it looks like you've cracked the mechanism... Maybe it's something you, the enchanter, saw through? I won't speculate, I probably wouldn't understand it either. Anyway, I've passed the game, okay."

Yu Man didn't answer directly, but said to Brother Teng and all the members, "Everyone, take a break. Don't waste the food in front of the camp. Eat more. Brother Ya is still in the camp. Everyone, go and praise him."

"Oh, Yago, my fire man!"

"Just now, Yago ran wildly with a sword, and the whole way was on fire."

“I took a screenshot.”

Everyone found new fun and headed towards the camp.

Yu Man ignored the chatter and the sound of footsteps—just counting the time silently.

This was her long-awaited alone time.

It is also the countdown to reunion.

Now, what is the little deer doing in reality?

Is he lying in bed? Or was he scolded by the housekeeping robot? Or is he causing trouble for his cat?

No, wait, could it be that they are here to harm the tenants? As soon as this thought came to mind, it took root and occupied Yu Man's mind. She was very worried about her real self and wanted to take off the device to take a look -

But it's too late.

"Your friend Jiandui Lulu is online."

The shadow of magic instantly framed her, outlined her.

A lovely girl wearing plate armor and carrying a greatsword on her back returned to the old world cheerfully.

She did not forget Yu Man's previous instructions and started typing immediately.

"Ha! I'm back, guys, I just fell down."

But——it wasn’t sent.

Because she was keenly aware that no one noticed and no one asked.

Just like during breaks, no one will come to chat with you, and you won’t be able to join in the conversation even if you force yourself to join a small group.

So you hold a book, or a game console/phone, and wear headphones to make yourself look busy.

No—something is different.

"Very punctual." Yu Man was waiting for her.

"hey-hey."

"Come, take a look at my plan."

"receive."

The two of them met eyes and opened their backpacks in anticipation.

"--have!"

The little deer couldn't help but scream, but quickly regained his composure.

She quickly used her now skilled quick gestures to post an item from her bag to the chat bar and sent it to Yu Man.

"Unfinished Sword of Flame"

"This blade is engraved with the inscription of the renowned craftsman 'Rust Remover', and was made by him personally.

Once the equipment gives it convenience and beauty, it will become a famous sword.

It will then be handed over to a certain warrior, and a war will begin.

In addition, this sword has a special status annotation.

Tamed

When it becomes an object, it also means it has been tamed by the system.

Therefore - their copy goal has actually been completed.

Xiaolu confirmed it several times: "Awesome, a seventh-level sword, eel! How did you know this? Don't even mention it's the official website."

"That's not the case."

"Ok?"

"We can't use this sword."

"……All right."

It is a fact, its class is far beyond the player level.

It’s not that the player isn’t specialized enough to pick it up… but rather that its condition is still missing the last step.

With the current level of player craftsmen, crafting equipment for it would be impossible. It would take at least a month for top players to reach this level, so it's a pity.

Hearing Yu Man say this, Xiaolu blinked lightly and put the sword into Xiangxiang's mouth.

Then he picked it up and put it back into Yu Man's backpack.

She had already done everything - she knew very well that the next step would be the domain of the copy masters.

"Well, I'm just holding you back now, so I'll go have some barbecue with everyone... Just call me if you need any help!"

"Well, wait for my good news."

Yu Man usually doesn't say such optimistic words, but she said it anyway.

Because the girl in front of her was hiding her loss, she needed to hear these words.

……

Yu Man walked towards the house - the craftsman's residence.

It's time to get the good news.

……

At this time, the "Rust Remover" is enjoying a short break.

Instead of taming the sword and breaking up the remaining power with your own hands, a stranger will come to help.

This would save her some time and allow her to enjoy her drink in comfort.

"——Master." It was his little assistant.

"What's wrong? You look so flustered."

"Master, the strangers are having a party!"

A party? The Rust Remover was a bit confused, but didn't take it seriously.

This probably means that the strangers have accepted their fate, knowing that they will have to use endless deaths to dull the heat of their swords... In that case, it doesn't matter if they drink more and eat more - it doesn't matter.

"Master, and the girl with the delicious name is knocking on the door outside."

"Knock?"

The Rust Remover can understand this.

They are simply here to negotiate peace and change the conditions, because taming the sword is difficult.

There were only a few of them, and they were all a motley crew of low-level guys.
