The cloudy red mist vibrates, recreating what Sthetia had experienced.

It was a young man who was begging him.

"Sister Tia... Can you please... Would you please plead with Lord Ash? I'll try! I'll try to do better in my next fight! I beg the Grey Lord not to take away my contract... Don't take my power back... I don't want to turn back into a normal person... I don't want to lose everything..."

"I... I want to continue fighting with everyone!

”

Looking at the boy in the red mist picture, looking at this character model, a certain memory that Liao Ji had forgotten in the corner of his mind was finally hooked.

He recognized that this boy was the first of the names that Sthetia had just recited, Pire, who was a [Guard] professional doomer he had contracted in the early stage of reclamation.

Pire's star rating is very low, only two stars, and the skill set is also very poor, but the reason why he can still let Liao Ji contract and be included in his command is because Pire has a very powerful talent specialty.

[Gain XP Efficiency +15%]

This means that Liao Ji can use fewer resources in the early stage to pull out a full-level two-star "constant" character.

However, as the difficulty increases later, the constant-level characters become more and more difficult, not to mention the incomparably "rolled" [Guard] profession, Pire was quickly eliminated.

And Liao Ji used the [Reset] ability to recycle the resources that had been invested in Pire.

Liao Ji, who was in the game at the time, didn't feel anything wrong, and didn't even hesitate, after all, this is a routine operation for many players, especially in the early stage, when resources are extremely tight.

But at this moment, Liao Ji, through the picture that Sthetia showed him now, the young man was silent.

He watched Pire's weeping, he looked at Pire's eyes eager to continue fighting, he looked at Pire's humble figure who pleaded bitterly, even knelt down for Sthetia and begged the nun to say good things in front of him...

Liao Ji realized that for him, it was just a virtual game, but for the characters in the game, a random operation he made may determine the other party's life.

And [Reset] is tantamount to a death sentence and an end to life in the era of the wasteland where monsters are everywhere and dangers are riddling.

The little nun in the picture, Sscaudia, wants to comfort Piret and say something of encouragement to Pire.

Apparentia found that she couldn't do it, because she knew that although Grey Lady loved her, Grey would not listen to any of her advice.

She could only watch, shrouded in a cloak trench coat, not so much expressionless... It should be said that the gray adult, who couldn't see his face at all, walked in, and then, in the cry of Pire, took the contract, and turned around and left without saying a single superfluous word the whole time.

The picture of the turbid red mist turned again.

This time, the protagonist in the painting has become a young girl with a young spring, and this time Liao Ji's memory is no longer so ambiguous, because he still has a deep impression of this girl.

Sheena.

Why is it said that it is a young girl, because it is at night, the girl and Sthetia sleep under the same wooden house, but unfortunately no matter how dark the night is, it can't make the girl sleepy, Hina is pestering Sthetia to ask the nun to tell her more stories about the gray adult.

"Naa, Sister Tia, what does Lord Gray like to eat?"

"Now, Sister Tia, did you think Lord Grey would wear the necklace I gave him?"

"Naa! Sister Tia, you said that tomorrow my awakening... I'm looking forward to what kind of new abilities I'll get after advancing to the "Dangerous Level"..."

"Now, Sister Tia, you said I... I'm at the promotion ceremony tomorrow... And, if you confess to the gray adult, can you, can you do it? ”

Yes.

Sheena, the initial three-star, the profession is the ability department, the skill set is very good, at least for Liao Ji, who was still in the early stage at the time, it was Liao Ji who had high hopes, and took out the precious [Doom Essentia] to give Xina a star promotion, so that she could go further.

The current night is obviously for the characters in the game, the eve of promotion.

However...

Soon, the picture of the turbid red mist turned.

Last night, my face was flushed, fantasizing about the future, fantasizing about being the right-hand man of Lord Ash, fantasizing about being able to be like Sthetia, Hina who was favored by Lord Gray, but at this moment...

Kneeling on the ground, his face as dull as death's ashes, his eyes losing all sparkle.

Really...

Liao Ji sighed.

The reason why he still has an impression of Sheena is because he clearly remembers that this [ability] character, who was obviously given high hopes by himself, awakened an incomparably wasteful garbage skill after being promoted to "Dangerous Level".

What is visible to the naked eye will only waste resources if it is cultivated further, and the future will be bleak.

This made him angry, and he directly gave Sheena a [reset] power on the spot.

Liao Ji still remembers his complaint in front of the screen at that time.

"That's it? I'm convinced! This stupid*-game warehouse inspection has a human mentality, right? Get out of here! Spit out all the resources and go to the sewer to eat ashes! Bastard! ”

At that time, I was like this, and I was still a dark dead house that kept myself at home.

Now that I think about it, at that time, I kept complaining that the outside world was dark and malicious, but in fact... Isn't it the same? It's just that these negative emotions are vented in the game.

Even though... This is one of the original reasons why "games" were invented.

Seeing Scietia in the red mist picture, the kind nun couldn't bear to see Sheena fall from heaven to hell in just one day, and turned into a completely "broken" girl.

She also tried to comfort her, but this time Sthetia got a more cruel dialogue than the little boy in the previous scene.

"You... Are you here to laugh at me? ”

"yes... Why... Why is only Sister Tia so talented... Why is it that only Sister Tia can be favored by Lord Grey... Why wasn't Tia the one who was robbed of the contract... Why not you! ”

"Woo... Woooooooo ”

Sheena scolded Sthetia and scolded the nun for her hypocrisy, and Scitia became an outlet for the girl in her broken mood, but Scytia didn't fight back, she just suffered silently... At least the malice was transferred to her, not to the Grey Lady.

There are many, many more pictures like this.

This is a microcosm of those, under Liao Ji, except for those five, the rest of the "contractors", the rest... The epitome of the outcast.

Liao Ji's principle concept is to concentrate all resources, he does not seek breadth, only refinement, all other three-star, four-star... Even the five-star contract doomer is just nutrients.

It was he who cultivated the nutrients of those five top outstanding "six-star" doomers.

The turbid red mist finally slowly dissipated, and no more pictures surfaced.

Through the perspective of Satia and the perspective of the characters in the game, Liao Ji completely understood the reason why the nun went crazy, and the nun would be afraid because she had messed up the Holy Kingdom... Even the reason for the fear of being abandoned by him, no matter how much he explained, it was useless.

Because it does...

In the eyes of the characters in the game, as the "gray adult", he is such a person who is the supreme strength, a person who is always expressionless and does not show the slightest affection.

And even Sxiutia has become like this under high pressure, and Liao Ji can't imagine the remaining four.

It wasn't until here that Liao Ji finally understood.

The second week is no longer a cultivation game.

It's a...

Horror game.
