I am a reincarnation player.

While becoming a player, can you retain your essence as a 'human' and not be contaminated by the reincarnation game?

Everyone is in the game, and every desire for power and every escape from death are subtly influencing the players' thoughts.

This kind of pollution cannot be removed by any extraordinary skills. The desire for survival and greed are instinctive. Players will eventually forget everything on Earth and be completely dominated by the game.

"It has to be done even if it's difficult. As players gain more experience, they will get deeper and deeper into the reincarnation game. This cannot be stopped by human power." Yuuki was very clear-headed. Including himself, everyone had already been in the game. If it weren't for the seniors, he would have forgotten his original intention long ago.

Killing, looting, strengthening, infinite loop, this is a real player.

You can either go with the flow, or love this cycle, or find a way to get out of it. Each choice is not wrong, but for the vast majority of players of "The Thorn Rose", they really don't have a good impression of reincarnation games.

So he picked up the bottle and saluted from a distance.

"Let's work together. Perhaps we can find a way to escape before we are completely swallowed by the abyss."

.......

Ye Qiu and the others left contentedly. They finally got the answer and felt more confident.

The pioneer shared the same idea as himself. He was a truly wise being who saw through the true contradictions beneath the extraordinary fog:

There are countless camps, and those gods, demons, and kings have been replaced countless times. No matter how powerful their strength is, or how terrifying their authority is, they are just toys in the game.

They are no different from the weakest players. They are all fighting for survival and will fall if they are not careful. They may not even live as comfortably as an ordinary player like Thorn Rose.

There is no need for emotions, because emotions become weaknesses.

There is no need to rest, because both enemies and companions are getting stronger, and a moment of relaxation will lay the groundwork for your fall.

Stronger power, higher evaluation, passing assessment after assessment, and then what? Can it be strong enough to replace the reincarnation game?

"Your motives are indeed impure." Hayasaka Ai gave him a resentful look. This idiot is too time-saving. Can't he just take a good rest?

"I already promised Senior that I would come out to do something serious, and besides, it won't interfere with my rest." Yuki drank his wine comfortably, tilting his head slightly. "I never talk big. I promised to take you back, and I will definitely do it, so I need more people to participate in the plan."

"But I still don't understand. What does maintaining old habits have to do with quitting the game? Isn't that game erosion theory unfounded?"

"It will be too late if we wait for the confirmation. I have always been good at doing things in advance. Anyway, everyone will be happy this way." Yuuki spread his hands. Ayanokouji Kiyotaka probably thought that he had obtained some information from the big boss, but Hayasaka knew that there was no big boss.

If we really want to talk about the starting point, perhaps it was in the variety show that Philen likes to watch. Existence is meaning. As part of the outpost welfare, Yuki always felt that this was not a coincidence, so he simply followed the idea and pushed it forward.

"Yes, this habit dilutes the flavor of the reincarnation game. If I can really go back one day, I can return to normal life as soon as possible." Hayasaka Ai tilted her head, her blue eyes shining, and she entered into a beautiful fantasy.

"I miss my mother so much, and I think everyone else does too, but the outpost gives me the opportunity to miss her."

"Are you implying something about Philen?" Yuki asked with a smile.

"Yes, Feilun misses her master too, but in the ether, she rarely has the chance to reminisce. It feels like everything familiar no longer exists."

There are no familiar people, no familiar journeys, and there is no difference between inside and outside the dungeon. You have to rely entirely on your survival instinct to move forward...

How miserable.

Yuki took a breath. No wonder Philen became the group's favorite. Everyone took good care of her.

"Alright, let's make these arrangements for the outpost for now. Relax with Rikka and the others. Even if my arrangements are useless, just seeing your smile is enough."

"Maybe I'm just faking a smile~" Hayasaka hid the reluctance in her eyes but did not stop him.

Mr. Ye is right. Time will erase all habits. Ying Lili almost turned evil several times. If all her teammates died, she probably wouldn't be able to pull herself back.

By then, a real player will be born.

"Then I'll find a way to make you laugh without any scruples." Yuki put down the bottle, turned around, and disappeared into the crowd under the gaze of Hayasaka Ai.

The boast had already been blown out, he had to find a way, and this first step -

Just to see if the reincarnation game has an end.

Chapter 10: Ryougi Shiki

At the border, somewhere.

This is a typical Japanese courtyard. Several sections of green bamboo peek out from behind the white courtyard wall, and the wooden gate emits a light fragrance.

What a rich guy, building such a large building in a place where every inch of land is worth a lot of money.

Yuuki stood at the door and couldn't help but sigh at the gap between people. You know, the land at the border has to pay rent to the reincarnation game, and if you are not careful, the owner's rent may be deducted into a negative number. This is part of the "points recovery plan."

Therefore, every expense must be carefully calculated. For example, Iron Faith or Hunter, their bases all have functions such as trading places or commission offices, and they try their best to earn points from players.

Then the people in Valhalla just used it as a residence, and Yuki had no other words to say except "rich man".

"Mr. Li?"

A pleasant male voice came from the side. Yuki turned his head and raised the comment of "rich man" by one level.

The man was wearing green leather armor and was extremely handsome. There was a teardrop mole under his left eye and he had an elegant and proper smile.

Diarmuid Odin, one of the Lancers, a man of great ability.

If one had to choose someone to be a guard, Diarmuid would obviously be the most suitable candidate. He has a strong sense of justice, values ​​chivalry, values ​​friendship, is gentle and polite to others, and will never betray.

"Yes, I came here in response to your invitation." Yuki looked at the person who was serving the dish and nodded.

"Then please follow me." The knight didn't ask any questions. He put his hand on the door, and after a flash of light, he actually passed through.

Is this door just a decoration? Is it essentially a teleportation tool?

Yuuki hesitated for a moment. He certainly understood the risks, but he had to take the risk for the answer. Johnny Silverhand and Levi definitely didn't know information like the "Lost Ones", and the big guys behind them might not be trustworthy.

The fewer people who know about what happened in the Wizard's Tower, the better. The Evil Extermination Team is in a lot of trouble themselves, and Liang Yi Mana is at least an extraordinary person.

Moreover, I have a conclusive guess, which is enough to ensure safety.

He calmed himself down, stepped in, and opened his eyes, only to find that he had not been teleported to any strange place. In front of him was just an ordinary Japanese garden.

There was a gravel road, a small lake, and startled deer making "dong dong" sounds. It was surprising that there was no one in such a large manor. It was obvious that the other party attached great importance to this meeting and tried their best to hide the secret.

Ryougi Mana, wearing a black miniskirt, was feeding the fish by the lake. When she saw Yuki, she waved her hands.

Yuki also waved his hand, but he actually felt a little strange. Ryogi Mana was probably older than himself, but why did he still look like a child? It didn't seem like he was pretending.

"I have to thank you for Miss Mana's matter." Diarmuid stood in front, his back straight. "That was her calamity, and it was only because of you that she was able to overcome it smoothly."

"As a powerful faction, can't Valhalla send some helpers? And what is a disaster?" Yuki asked curiously.

"It's a curse that every Valhalla player will encounter sooner or later. The mortality rate is very high. As for what it is, I can't tell you. Anyway, the more you help, the weirder the dungeon becomes."

Yuki didn't know what was so impressive, he just thought it was fair.

Most Valhalla players start at the Extraordinary level, with rich combat experience and strong will. If we don't give them some disasters, won't the other players suffer? As for the weird ones—

Is there anything weirder than taking part in a three-way melee between the Witch God, Taiyi, and the Judge?

Just as he was thinking, Liang Yi Mana came running over with a bright smile on his face: "You are here after all. How is it? Is my house big enough?"

Tsk, it's far from my exclusive space of unlimited size.

Yuki nodded and looked around: "Where is your mother?"

"Hey, you're visiting a girl's home, why do you start by asking about her mother?"

Nonsense, if it weren't for the famous Ryougi Shiki, I would have taken the time to come to the border area. Wouldn't it be better to date Hayasaka?

Yuki almost complained, but he had to be patient after all, saying, "Your Excellency Liangyi is the host, so of course I, as a guest, have to say hello."

"Then you have to wait. She hasn't come back yet. Wait a minute. Why are you running?"

"It's just right that I'm going out to do something. I'm a master of time management." Yuki glanced at Ryougi Mana's chubby face. What a joke! Can I be controlled by a naughty kid like you?

Diarmuid looked back in surprise. He didn't expect that the eccentric lady would be humiliated one day. Seeing Yuki turning around and leaving, and seeing Mana winking at him madly, he simply went to look at the fish in the lake.

This Mr. Li is quite powerful, so it’s better not to provoke him easily.

Seeing that he couldn't call anyone's attention, Mana gritted his teeth slightly, took a few steps forward and grabbed Yuki's sleeve.

"Don't go, can you chat with me?"

"Sorry, I'm not a lolicon."

"I'm not Lori either. I told you I'm older than you."

Yuuki looked the other person up and down. She had long black hair, a black dress, a flat chest, and slender calves. He said nothing, just spread his hands and shrugged.

you!

Manas was almost mad. All the plans he had prepared were useless. The root cause was fixed, and it wasn't his fault.

Although he was angry, he immediately had an idea after rolling his eyes.

"How about I tell you about my mother, and wait, the story of the five Heroic Kings!"

Yuki paused slightly after taking two steps, thinking that the Yin-Yang Mana's ability to read people's expressions was really amazing, but he didn't agree immediately. Instead, he looked at Diarmuid.

The knight's face was full of helplessness, but he was very satisfied with Yuki's question and nodded slightly.

Strong, intelligent, and proper, he is also a decent gentleman.

With the permission of the 'adult', Yuki turned around, and his cold face suddenly smiled like a chrysanthemum. He took the feed from Liangyi Mana.

"Come on, uncle will feed the goldfish with you, hurry up and tell me."

This seamless switch stunned Liang Yi Mana, who didn't know what label to give to Jie Cheng. How could his bravery when facing the witch god and the calculation of incorporating an entire copy into the script be connected with the shameless guy in front of him?

But, hum, we've met our match.

She also became more interested and chased after him.

"Uncle, how long have you been in the reincarnation game? I've been in it for over ten years."

"Haha, about 20 to 30 years, 100 to 200 copies."

"Boasting, you're not going to heaven after one or two hundred copies?"

"Compared to you, I've already ascended to heaven."

The mixture of temptation and complaint made Diarmuid, who was guarding nearby, smile and quietly step back.

Well, let’s go prepare some refreshments.

......

Liangyi Manas seems to be full of childishness, but anyone who is deceived by this appearance will surely die a miserable death.

Yuki had only seen that kind of intelligence in a few people. She was more like an old fox in the guise of a little girl. If ordinary people were not careful, they would even be able to tell the color of her underwear.

"But the strange thing is, she's not acting; she has that natural cleverness that only little girls have."

Yuki couldn't understand why. Based on his acting skills alone, he could perfectly play the role of an innocent boy, but it was just an illusion after all, and he felt sick.

Experience and strength grow, while body and character remain fixed in place?

That's a bit interesting.

"Do you think I'm interesting?" Mana supported her chin and swung her white silk legs gently. This legal loli had a strange temptation. Seeing Yuki's eyes, she laughed again.

"If you want to see it, just look openly. Isn't there a saying that goes around? Loli has three good qualities, but it seems she's delicate and easily pushed down."

"I told you, I'm not a lolicon!"

"So what are you into?"

"None of your business, I don't like it anyway." Yuki rarely encountered such a tough opponent. In terms of rank, he was far superior to the senior. He quickly knocked on the table and said, "By the way, the King of Heroes is an epic-level player, and there are five of them in the Hall of Heroes?"

"Yeah, you don't think that epic players are everywhere."

Not that that's the case.

Yuki waved his hand. The information revealed by Liangyi Mana broadened his horizons and allowed him to glimpse the high-end power in the reincarnation game.

The epic level is difficult to reach. He has now completed the prerequisites and obtained a huge amount of points, but he is still some distance away. You can imagine what a leap it is to enter the epic level. No wonder Johnny Silverhand looks like he wants to lick me.

As long as I don't die, I will definitely be epic. There seem to be only 4 players of the same level in the Mechanical Faith. They and Valhalla are both powerful camps. It is conceivable that other weaker camps are lucky to have a few players.

Well, there are also epic players who are the leading figures of each faction and representatives in every sense.

"Mana, what did you mean when you said that the five Heroic Kings all have some of the rights of pioneers?"

"Literally, it means the pioneers' authority is divided into five parts. You don't think any faction can have a dog with the only authority, do you? Wouldn't that make them true gods?"

Of course there is one right in front of you.

Yuuki didn't dare to look into those blue eyes, and asked, "Why not?"

"Of course they fell. The players in each faction aren't very different, especially those who just started the game, who are all at the same level. When a 'god' falls for various reasons, his authority will be divided, unless someone can eliminate all competitors and unify the authority." Liangyi Mana spoke eloquently and waved his hand.
