Chapter 40: Carry Me Along!
Upon entering the gaming entertainment area, she found herself embroiled in a game right away.
Here, reality transforms into virtuality, adding much more gameplay.
For example, right now, Mo Qianmeng and the Bad Boy were creating conflict in real life, so they started a duel using a virtual reality game.
Their weapons were all virtual and wouldn’t cause actual harm, only data damage.
If those virtual weapons hit someone, they’d inflict numerical damage based on sensitivity.
Simply put, this was HP.
Zero HP meant defeat.
Today’s virtual battles generally serve to resolve conflicts or earn game points through duels.
The more game points you have, the better the special prizes you can get from the gaming entertainment zone. Pretty exciting, right?
When Yexing learned about this, he thought it was really cool.
“So that’s how it is!”
Yexing then pulled out a virtual screen displaying his basic information.
Player Name: Game Player 5835 (can be changed)
Level: 1
No gaming experience, no achievements, no equipment.
Nickname: Newbie Gamer
Seeing this info, Yexing caught on pretty quickly.
So this is what creating an account means. That’s how you create a character in the game.
Without creating one, you probably can’t enter here at all—no sense of involvement.
Realizing this, Yexing boldly changed his name to [Audience Performer], which felt much more comfortable.
And Lianhua and Kong Yubai helped change their names with Yexing’s help.
One is called Puppet Master, the other Singer, both aliases used in the theater group.
Should we drag the Group Leader and company here to perform?
When we create accounts for them, we can form teams!
In reality, they’re the invincible Rising Sun Theater Group. In the game, they’ll conquer the world too!
But thinking carefully, the Group Leader might not be interested in this.
What a shame.
Yexing then shifted his focus back toward Mo Qianmeng’s direction.
She was still facing off with him, ready to fight.
From what he found out, even in the virtual game, everyone’s strength isn’t evenly matched.
Even if they’re all level one players, they can compensate for skill gaps with their abilities.
New players start with basic weapons like wooden swords given by the game system.
Those with unique weapons usually make them themselves.
Like how the ball bat held by the Bad Boy and the large paintbrush wielded by Mo Qianmeng look like personal gear.
Unique weapons are far superior to initial ones and cause more damage, a critical part of their overall power.
Now that they’re about to duel, who knows who will win?
Yexing is fascinated by such high-freedom games.
With her incredible moving speed, she’s probably unbeatable in a duel, right?
That’s pretty slick!
Back to the game arena.
The countdown has begun.
Holding his baseball bat, the Bad Boy flashed a wide grin. “To be honest, few can beat me in real-time virtual combat. Plus I see you’re a girl, and your level isn’t very high. The physical gap between genders is significant, and throw in my level superiority and combat experience—I’ll beat you in a flash. How about you admit defeat and let us have some fun all day? Honestly, I could use a girlfriend.”
Mo Qianmeng sighed softly, not wanting to waste breath.
“Let’s just get on with it.”
“Fine, I won’t hold back then!”
The countdown reached zero.
The Bad Boy charged fiercely, swinging his bat like a pro.
In real life, he’d definitely be a brutal enforcer.
Mo Qianmeng calmly flicked her large paintbrush through the air, leaving a vivid red streak.
Yexing and others watched in awe, not wanting to miss any details.
Then the Bad Boy rushed toward Mo Qianmeng, showing no mercy.
He isn’t a gentleman; he doesn’t hold back when fighting a woman.
Games should be taken seriously—he lives by this creed!
“You’re dead!”
Mo Qianmeng narrowed her eyes, stepped forward, then threw her brush.
In the blink of an eye, she appeared behind the Bad Boy, nobody saw her move.
“It’s over.”
Her calm voice echoed as she returned the brush to her system backpack.
Everyone stared in shock as the Bad Boy’s HP vanished entirely.
Instant k*ll!
One attack was enough.
Dumbfounded by the words “victory” and “loser,” the Bad Boy was totally shocked.
“Incredible! How did you instantly KO me? Your weapon and level must be insane.”
Mo Qianmeng softly replied, “None of that matters; you know you lost.”
“Wait, dark-haired, long hair, this description—aren’t you supposed to be the legendary pro gamer—Huaying?”
“Gosh, yes.”
“Not losing to you isn’t too embarrassing then. Excuse me.”
Recognizing Mo Qianmeng, the Bad Boy left silently with his gang.
Yexing approached curiously, staring at Mo Qianmeng.
“Hey Qianmeng, what’s Huaying mean?”
“Just my username.”
“Aren’t you famous around here?”
“To some extent, when I first moved to this city, everything felt fresh. Using my Night Watcher body, I challenged many people. As my levels climbed, I gained quite a reputation. Those guys didn’t recognize me because I haven’t been here in a while,” Mo Qianmeng said softly.
She’d always been quite enthusiastic.
Although she’s a girl, she’s also a Night Watcher.
Night Watcher’s physique is no joke—they’re way stronger than regular folks, even in the weakest ranks.
Add other aspects on top, and the training facilities at the Night Watcher Base are top-notch.
Having a Sunlight Night Watcher mix it up casually with gamers feels like bullying.
Plus, after getting her fill of gaming, she decided to settle down painting, hence her ‘retirement’ from the gaming zone.
“Mmm hmm, sounds good. If you’re a big-shot here, can you carry me along?”
“Sure.”
Ultimately, Mo Qianmeng got swayed by endless cries of “Qianmeng-nee.”
Cute little girls always charm easily.
Especially polite lolis.
Mo Qianmeng sums up her personality as ‘outwardly cold but inwardly warm,’ totally under Yexing’s influence.
Even though they’re on different sides, they get along incredibly well.
That’s Yexing’s social magic!
