..."player".

Su Mingan was in the cabinet and heard the princess say this word herself.

He felt a little confused.

In different world copies, these NPCs have different attitudes towards players.

Some will clearly know that their group of "outsiders" are players, and even regard them as invaders, while some NPCs will not be surprised as if they have turned on the automatic shielding system, as if they heard him communicating with Iris.

of Sevia.

But obviously, this tulip princess is the former.

As for the reasons why these NPCs behave differently... Su Mingan is more inclined to believe that existences like princesses are NPCs who have awakened their self-awareness.

They are very special and can realize that their world is not real and that it is a game.

"About the player...this, I know everything about the player." The man told everything about the player like he was pouring beans: "That's it, our hometown is occupied by a group of high-dimensional creatures, and they force us to become 'players'.

Let us come to your world, complete tasks, and get rewards... But we don't mean it, and we don't want to play this damn game. We are just forced to have no choice..."

Su Ming'an listened to the man's jabbering and telling the whole story.

The man talked for a long time, including the initial opening ceremony, and then continued to the current copy. After he finished speaking, there was a long-lost silence.

"You mean." The princess suddenly said: "Our world is just a playground for you to have fun?"

"No, no, no!" The man immediately denied: "We were also forced, and we don't know why we came to your world. It's just those high-dimensional creatures, them, they..."

"Stupid guys, let me ask you if a sword held in someone else's hand is not a sword?" The princess sneered: "Invaders, my kingdom does not need you to enter, and neither does my hometown.

We need your rescue. Survival or destruction will be our fate. I am the only successor to the royal family, and I declare to you that this land will never need you."

"Bang!"

Su Mingan heard a dull sound.

The man who was still begging for mercy completely lost his voice.

"Sherrod, did you hear that? He said that we are just the issuers of tasks and have no independent consciousness." The princess said: "I think it is necessary for me to intervene in this sea feast to let this group of invaders occupy the bodies of our residents.

They died in the storm."

Sherrod's voice came next: "Princess, in that case, our residents will also die. And, you know, the gods would not want the contestants to die in such a meaningless way."

"Really?" the princess said, "Well, I do need to wait. After all, it's only two days until the net is closed..."

"What did you say? What about closing the net?" Xie Lude asked doubtfully.

"..." The princess suddenly paused.

She changed the subject:

"Xie Lude, you are the knight with the best life affinity talent in decades. I trust you and will bring you to my private laboratory. As long as you are willing, I can turn you into a being like me. I can

Let you have eternal life like me."

"Feel sorry."

Faced with the temptation of eternal life, Xie Lude flatly refused: "You are the only successor. You need eternal life, but I will not enjoy such a gift. I would rather live, grow old, sick and die, and wait at the side of the royal city for the rest of my life. Please allow me."

I."

"Do you know what it means to reject me? I have brought you here and shown you my long-closed secrets. Do you think I will let you go safely?" the princess said coldly.

After hearing her threat, Sherrod knelt down calmly.

His forehead touched the ground without any trembling in his body:

"Princess, if you want to keep this secret forever, then as a knight of the royal city, I am willing to die for your order."

"..." The princess was stunned as she listened.

A confused look appeared on her face.

It was difficult for her to understand such a person who could die for the so-called "chivalry".

"I don't know..." the princess said softly, "whether your loyalty to me is driven by your great chivalry and sense of autonomy, or whether it is the organizer's 'character creation' that the players call it."

Sherrod did not waver.

His voice was always steady, never seeming to be mixed with any private emotions of desire:

"At least now, all I can see with my eyes is that the person standing in front of me is Princess Tulip of the Royal Family of Praia, the person I have sworn allegiance to based on the code of chivalry."

The princess sighed.

She no longer continued this topic, and had no intention of letting Sherrod die.

The iron chains jingled, the cage door opened, and the unconscious people inside were pulled out by her.

These people began to wake up one after another.

"Princess, princess, please let us go. I am really just a good citizen of Praia. I just... I just forgot something." Someone began to beg for mercy.

"No." The princess's voice seemed very cold: "You are not the people I love, you are just a foreign invader, a player from other worlds."

"Wait, how do you know the player?" A female player said with a shocked face.

"This should be a dungeon setting. This princess should be an NPC who can detect the presence of players." A fat player next to him whispered.

His voice was low, but Princess Tulip's ears were very sharp, and her sharp eyes quickly glanced over.

The fat player caught her gaze and immediately shivered in fear.

"Dungeon settings." She said with a smile in her voice: "Everything is a dungeon setting, so can I say that you guys who think you are 'players' are also existences driven by the so-called 'player' settings?

"

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

A red-haired woman shouted: "Everyone, come on! There is no that dark guy beside her, we can take the opportunity to catch her and escape!"

As soon as her words came out, the players responded one after another. After all, they knew in their hearts that if they didn't seize the opportunity to run now, they would not have the chance in the future.

This princess np...will really hurt them.

Before this, several players had been sucked away by the transparent soul behind her, and then turned into a group of extremely old guys who could only talk to themselves, as if they had lost their souls.

With the experience of the sixth world, they must not be "alienated" here.

Either commit suicide now and return to save yourself, or seize the opportunity, kill the NPC in front of you, and escape!

For a moment, they were afraid to commit suicide, so they had no choice but to rush forward.

Some people's bodies lit up with light waves, some had bloody marks on their hands, and some even had a black and white Bagua array appear under their feet.

The princess just stood there quietly, while the young knight of light stood up and stood guard in front of her with his sword.

Looking at the bloodstained players rushing towards them, she smiled softly.

Her laughter was as clear as a silver bell.

"Xiao Hei." She said: "Control them."

At this moment, even Su Mingan, who was hiding in the cabinet and looking out through the gap, felt a pressure.

A middle-aged man wearing a black hat appeared next to the princess.

He stretched out his hand, and without any warning, all the players who rushed forward were instantly entangled in dark chains and pressed heavily to the ground.

...This is the SS-level soul hunter guarding the royal city.

His combat power is at least three thousand. The S soul hunter can be called upon at any time, which shows that it is absolutely undesirable to assassinate the princess rashly.

Su Mingan looked out through the gap and saw the princess, protected by the man, approaching the players with pained faces step by step.

"You will feel honored, visitors from another world," she said, "because you will soon be transformed into sacrifices that will be controlled by me forever."

...permanent control.

Listening to this word, Su Mingan had a bad feeling.

The barrage also seemed to realize the seriousness of the matter.

[...Wait a minute, Mina, I discovered that this copy does not seem to be so earthly. 】

[Someone has said it on the forum a long time ago! Something has been wrong with the game dungeon since Baisha. Didn’t you see that there are already so many mental patients in the hospital? 】

[Could it be that this princess has mastered the method of absorbing souls and can directly cause harm to people's spirits? 】

[Brothers, I was originally a little excited about the outcome, but now I am really afraid...]

[I think everyone should have a suicidal skill on hand so that they can commit suicide with one click in this situation? Even if they are cleared and returned, it is definitely better than being "alienated"! 】

[Everyone! We are not invaders, we are also people who have been hurt! This princess has no right to accuse us!]

[Who cares about who is the invader now... I estimate that in the future, there will even be empty shell players wandering the streets in the world of the Lord God, with only their bodies left. 】

【It’s so scary, I won’t dare to go out anymore.】

[Who cares whether you can go out or not, but now the group of players in front of you are going to be in bad luck...]

A transparent spirit appeared behind the princess.
To be continued...
