This villain, please exercise some restraint.

"Am I...lost now?"

An Xu was still staring at his hands. The hands in front of him were clean and slender, and they could move freely under the control of his own consciousness.

But he still couldn't forget how, in the game world, he was involuntarily controlled by others time and time again, repeatedly overdrawing his own abilities to cooperate with Chi Xuan... on a killing spree.

His eyes seemed to always stay on the target. He couldn't see what the hands looked like, but he knew clearly without looking that those hands must be covered in blood.

It's not that he is disgusted with the slaughter in the game world, but... he is very resistant to this feeling of being controlled and unable to control himself...

"Shi Si... Shi Si or... Temperance? Is it an NPC or... a player?"

An Xu muttered in a low voice. He felt that there was something that seemed to be out of his awareness and out of the awareness of most players. It seemed that... there was an unknown danger approaching them.

Does Shi Si's ability really meet the original intention of making this holographic game? Is there such a kind of game prop that can really cause real trauma to the player's spiritual world?

If NPCs and players can be converted, then... those NPCs whose intelligence is no different from real people in the eyes of most players, could it be... could it be...

An Xu couldn't help but shudder when he thought of this.

With cold hands, he picked up the mobile phone on the table and opened the chat interface.

The blank round avatar is now gray. Obviously, the owner of this account does not seem to be online.

"No...not online?"

An Xu held the phone and was stunned for a moment.

He felt that his mind was a little frozen. He didn't know if it was because everything in the game had dealt him such a heavy blow that led to his current state.

[Hello, I have a question and want to give feedback. 】

But even so, An Xu still sent a message. As long as the relevant personnel of this game are still there, he will receive the message.

After waiting for a while, the message was still unread, and An Xu shook his head in disappointment.

If he hadn't been rescued by the NPC called the Hanged Man this time, he simply couldn't imagine what he would have done while being manipulated.

[The second generation seed of destiny revelation... I never expected that the last power of my Hanged Man would be used to destroy a derivative of a forbidden item...]

The moment he took control of his body, he opened his eyes and was surrounded by tall, lush trees and shrubs. He seemed to be in a corner of the Star Forest.

The young man in red clothes and blue trousers stood in front of him with his hands folded across his chest. He stood straight, but his figure was a little transparent.

[Protect yourself, and don’t provoke the existence that controls you. If you can’t do this, then don’t accept his help, especially——]

The young man's body seemed to be about to collapse in the next moment, but he still stretched out his almost transparent hand and pointed at his mouth.

[Especially - imported. 】

As soon as he finished saying this, the young man disappeared.

"Imported...?"

An Xu sat blankly, the Hanged Man's words echoing over and over in his mind.

He didn't know why the Hanged Man appeared inexplicably and saved him. He only remembered that when his mind was agitated, when he wanted to use the power of disgust to give it a try, when he... wanted to see the face of the dice. At this moment, the "Queen" suddenly intervened, and immediately, his consciousness fell into darkness.

When consciousness returned, he was already intact... standing in front of the Hanged Man who was about to disappear.

The Hanged Man said...Don't accept help from Shi Si, especially--imported ones.

In Shinzong, the experience of meeting Shi Si seemed to be replayed in front of his eyes. The sudden appearance, threats, and actions of the new restraint, the white feather arrow at the critical moment, and... As he opened his mouth, he was suddenly Something that goes into your mouth...a life-saving thing.

Until he saw Shi Si's true face clearly, the warmth that surged through his limbs and bones as unknown things entered his body would always make him feel inexplicably happy.

"So...even our first encounter was planned in advance?"

Thinking of this, An Xu smiled bitterly, and Shi Si's face appeared in his mind. No matter how much he thought about it, he never thought that such a beautiful face could be used from beginning to end.

It turns out that although moderation is no longer moderation, the shadow of moderation has always followed him like a shadow.

It's just... changed to a more subtle... and cruel way.

While An Xu was thinking wildly, his phone suddenly vibrated, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw that this was the official news push from "Final Destiny".

When he realized something, his hands opened uncontrollably.

[Dear citizens:

I am the emperor. When you see this message, don't feel proud. You have become a brave and fearless member of my command.

As we all know, if the absolute authoritative imperial power and the illusory divine power cannot achieve a perfect balance, then one party will inevitably end up with it... (ten thousand words are omitted here)

Therefore, I firmly believe that theocracy will eventually die.

Having said this, I think my dear people will think that I am a somewhat verbose old emperor, but the reason why I sent this message is not to inform, but to ask for help.

Yes, I firmly believe that the imperial power is supreme, but this group of strangers in southern Xinjiang don't seem to think so. They believe in gods... and they will use my old bones to sacrifice to the heavens in the near future.

Okay, I admit, I'm just an airborne emperor. Now, I have nothing but myself and my favorite people. My body has been trapped in a cage by these barbarians, but I still want to believe that my favorite people will die after their death. Before you come, save me from fire and water. 】

"...Emperor? Have you become the emperor already?"

An Xu was a little confused when he saw this news. In his impression, except for the Fool who actually opened a copy of the mission, the other tarot cards did not open a copy.

What's going on...Don't the magicians, priestesses and queens in the middle open their quest copies?

Thinking this, An Xu swiped the screen and habitually read the player comments under this push message.

The comment area under the official account of "Final Destiny" has always been quite active. Shortly after the news was released, many players already started discussing it.

[Gagale: This old emperor boasted for a long time and talked about theories for a long time, which made me think he had some grand plan. Did he actually get caught in the end? 】

[Try or die: Front row reminder: It is recommended to scroll to the end to read, only the last sentence is useful. 】

[Where is my experience value: So, what will be the reward for saving you? If you don't get paid, you're still a rat. 】

[It’s Shushu pinch: That’s right, but look at it like this...Is southern Xinjiang going to be opened up? When I participated in the mission of Ten Thousand Gu Tower, I felt that the next open area was designated as Southern Xinjiang because there were too many bugs... Hahaha, strange association. 】

[Big Sword: The airborne emperor? Even the people want us players to play the role. It is not the real emperor. According to the background of this game, it should be the "emperor" of the Tarot cards, right? 】

[Little Corporal: It's most likely, and I contacted an official MV. Southern Xinjiang is good at Gu, and there is something about pursuing the sublimation of Gu. The emperor calls it a "barbarian land." Doesn't this letter just mean that the Emperor Imprisoned by a barbarian land? 】

[Little Corporal: Under what circumstances would the emperor usually encounter something like this? Moreover, this emperor has no people of his own and is isolated and helpless, oh! correct! Defeated and captured, the country shattered or some supernatural force brought him there. 】

[Great wisdom: Forget the serious analysis upstairs. Can this game be analyzed using normal thinking? Do you still remember what happened in Zhongzhou? Everyone felt that the most awesome "Mian" died inexplicably. Maybe the emperor would be in a cage as soon as he opened his eyes. There are so many twists and turns. 】

......

There were many comments and various speculations. An Xu felt a little headache after looking at them for a while.

Maybe he needs to take a break, get away from the game world for a while, or go on a trip to change his mood.

At that time, he will consider whether to give up playing this game that in his eyes is quite excellent.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but after experiencing this incident, this holographic game, which can be said to be at the forefront of the times, has changed somewhat in his perception.
