Chapter 154
However, later experiences will tell XunMi that this indeed was considered fortunate.
“Let’s have a look at the plot.” Aiya, she had no choice but to charge forward now. BaoBao thrusted a golden edged book into XunMi’s lap and looked up at her with anticipation.
XunMi began concentrating on flipping through the book, titled Online Gaming: An Encounter Across a Thousand Miles. The writing seemed pretty sophisticated. After reading a few pages, XunMi confirmed that it was indeed sophisticated. The plot was very simple. The female lead, a newbie to the gaming world, was dragged into a new immersive game by her roommate. Afterwards, she started her beautiful love story. This book didn’t have a rollercoaster of drama, but there was a hidden point in the story. “Chaos” was an immersive virtual game that the Imperial Marshal spent five years producing. The book didn’t delve into the specifics of the marshal’s motives. It only stated that this was the creation of a second world. There were many powerful families within the higher levels of the military. They all arranged their heirs or men with high abilities to prepare for entering the game even before the game had been officially announced to the public. Naturally, those below them would notice such big movements. To avoid starting unnecessary controversy, the Marshal made a list of the first batch of users. The female lead was lucky enough to be on it. She didn’t have the backing of a prominent family but she did have a pure and innocent beautiful face. At school, her pure youthful look easily gained the attention of many sons of those powerful families. As soon as she entered the game, she was taken as a mentee by the tenth place ranking player. During the trial period, those with high-profile backgrounds had already entered the game. They were playing two months before the first batch of users had access to the game. For many gamers, two months was more than enough time to get familiar with a new game. The female lead’s roommate also had the intention of showing off when she brought the female lead into the game. But she could have never thought that the female lead would surpass her and gain the attention of her male idol. The one thing that the roommate absolutely couldn’t handle was that her master was also interested by the female lead. The seed of jealousy was planted down then. But since she came out of an influential family clan, she understood to hide her emotions. She first used her gentle and warm image to gain a good impression from everyone. Then, in a group fight, she framed the female lead and had their clan leader kick her out.
But how could the female lead be so easy to hurt? The reality was that the unlucky one in the end was the roommate. Someone had posted the female lead’s true appearance. It was discovered that she was also the school flower {T/N: most beautiful girl on campus} of the Literature Department at D University. Some even called her their female goddess.
When the female lead’s fan club at school found out that she had been framed online, they were furious. They mobilized all their resources to investigate the matter and found out that it was the female lead’s roommate that had framed her out of jealousy. They forced the roommate out of the game. They didn’t even spare her at school, ultimately forcing her to transfer schools.
Of course, this wasn’t the end. As the female lead, there would always be dangers and trouble around her, so that the hero can save the damsel in distress. Just as the roommate situation was over, a little Junior Sister entered. The Junior Sister’s skills were higher than the roommate’s. While completing a plot in the online game, she led the female lead into a hidden story mission within the game. No one had passed the mission yet. The beasts there were still at 100% energy. As a bad gamer, the female lead’s game level was 80, entirely due to the help of her Master and her other suitors. Naturally, the female lead would have been completely desttoyed in a battle with the beast. Luckily, the male lead, the mysterious first place holder in the game rankings chart, appeared and killed the beast in one strike.
Afterwards, the female lead chased after the male lead continuously. In the end, the male lead got annoyed and finally agreed to be together with her.
XunMi really didn’t understand the logic behind this reasoning. The most illogical part was that, after discovering the Junior Sister had intentionally harmed the female lead, the female lead still asked for the junior sister to be treated with mercy. She said that she should be thanking Junior Sister and that there was no way the Junior Sister had acted on purpose, even saying that the roommate hadn’t also meant to do what she did back then. It was because the female lead hadn’t been there then that the roommate had been misunderstood by everyone. So she felt bad for the roommate.
Afterwards, everyone was influenced by the female lead’s kindness and forgave the junior sister. The male lead also appreciated this new side of the female lead. In the end, they lived happily ever after.
After reading the entire book, XunMi didn’t know what to say. She knew what kind of person this female lead was: a Holy White Lotus Flower! Even though someone was a bad person, she’ll still think they were forced to do their bad actions and that they needed to be forgiven. If everyone treated every bad person like that, then the world would be a mess.
XunMi wasn’t against being kind. But she didn’t believe in being so blindly kindhearted. Throughout the book, the female lead caused a lot of trouble. It was her suitors and master that helped her resolve her difficult situations. Wanting to be kindhearted at the expense of making trouble for others wasn’t being kindhearted, but rather being a troublemaker.
But this time, XunMi didn’t see any character that shared her name. Did she miss something?
“BaoBao, let’s go meet the female lead.” XunMi threw the book up and collapsed on the bed with a smile.Female lead, you better not show your kindhearted side in front of me or else I’m afraid I won’t be able to hold myself back.
She didn’t plan on attacking this female lead. Of course, that was on the condition that she didn’t block her way.
Darkness enveloped her. When she opened her eyes again, XunMi found herself lying in a magnificent room. The bed beneath her was made from black jade, offering warmth in winter and coolness in the summer. The surrounding furnishings were also luxurious but not tasteless. It was a bit similar to a palace.
When she pushed the door open and walked out, she found that she was stepping on cashmere. An enormous floor-to-ceiling mirror clearly depicted XunMi’s entire body. A golden coat of soft black hair obediently fell over her shoulders and down to her waist. She had her same face, yet there was now a small birthmark on the side of her forehead. It was an alluring and captivating red.
Currently her lips were arched up as her fingers stroked through her long locks, emitting temptation from within. “BaoBao, where are we right now in the plot timeline? Also, why don’t I have the original soul’s memories?” Who’s body was this? She didn’t remember seeing her in the original plot.
After a long while, BaoBao’s soft voice finally sounded. [Madam Host, the female lead is about to come fight you. Also, Madam Host, you are the only beast in “Chaos” that is at level 100. You are an advanced AI NPC with a hidden identity: demon clan. There’s also another mysterious hidden aspect that you need to uncover by triggering it with related content. Madam Host, BaoBao can’t come out too much in this world. I’m afraid it’ll look like unfamiliar data fluctuations in the game. That would cause trouble. But the market and the space inventory can be used as usual. That’s right, host. You must be careful to hide your identity. Or else the game engineers might notice that something is abnormal and try to kill off your character.]
