I really only stop

"Touch, touch~"

"Goooh~ Sister Yuxiya's touch is so comfortable! Even the palm of your hand is warm~"

After squinting her eyes and enjoying it for a while, the white wolf girl finally remembered the mission entrusted to her by a certain Mr. Prey. She struggled to break free from Yuxia's sinking embrace, and coughed lightly like an adult:

"Well, from now on, Qianqian is no longer Qianqian, but that, um, (peeking at the note), yes! It is the final judge of [the last internal test before the opening of the trial tower]! From now on At first, the referee Qianqian will decide the final winner based on the remaining BP of the three sisters!"

Ah, it turns out that the 'mysterious referee' that Lu Xi mentioned before refers to Qianqian~

Yuxia blinked playfully:

"Then please do your best, referee Qianqian~"

"Oh... Sister Yuxia, don't look at Qianqian with such a cute look~ you will be suspected of being unfair!"

Qianqian, who was still looking amazing just now, was blushed by Yuxia's sudden wink, she turned her head slightly, and said in a low voice:

"A-Actually, the announcement of the result can only be announced when everyone is here, and now only sister Yuxia is here in advance... Well, please sit here and Qianqian will bring you a sweet little cake, okay? ?”

Faced with such a lovely child's proposal, no one can refuse, right?

Regarding this, Yuxia naturally smiled lightly, and sat gracefully on the seat by the window:

"Then I will trouble you, referee Qianqian~"

"Well! Please look forward to it!"

With a happy response, Qianqian skipped into the back kitchen.

Chapter 406 The Victory of the Money Saving War!

"Huh? Are you going to gather at the cake shop?"

After a day of hard work, Nana, who heard Lu Xi's broadcast, stretched long, and said to Barney, the heroic metal shield puppet beside him:

"Barney worked hard today too! Now that the test is over, let's go to the cake shop to see the results~"

【…】

Gently pulling the girl's sleeve, under the gaze of the latter's puzzled eyes, Barney raised his finger and pointed to the tree not far away.

"Huh? Is there anything over there?"

Obviously, the shield puppet never made any sound, but Nana stood on tiptoe as if she heard his [words], squinting and looking in the direction he pointed:

"—Really! That seems to be Celica! Why does it look like a statue?"

As Ruanmei saw, Celica, who was always very happy in the past, turned gray for some reason, and sat under the tree with her legs crossed in a vicissitudes of "I'm completely burned..." The whole body exudes a miserable and miserable aura of defeat.

Nothing bad will happen to Celica, right?

For everything about her teammates, Nana is definitely the one who cares the most.After confirming that the [Sad Statue.JPG] under the tree was Celica, she hurried over and asked cautiously:

"Celica? What's wrong with you?"

"...Ah, it's Nana..."

Celica raised her eyes slowly, and after staring at Nana for half a second, her vision slowly returned to a lax state:

"I'm fine, I just feel like I can't see a ray of light in front of my eyes."

Can't see the light?

Subconsciously turning her head to look at the setting sun that was close to setting but still had its afterglow, Nana felt even more anxious:

"No, it's okay! Celica can tell me about any unhappy things that happen to her, and I will never tell anyone!"

"It's useless... that guy, Ruoweixi, definitely already knows..."

Staring at the sky lazily, Celica's heavy voice revealed a trace of fatigue:

"When I repeatedly use BP and gold coins to buy useless one-time items to challenge enemies that are impossible to defeat, Ruoyouxi may laugh at me in places where my eyes can't reach."

"Lu, Lu Xi won't do it!"

Nana clenched her fist vigorously, trying to cheer up Celica who didn't know what happened:

"Although he and Celica have been arguing all the time, Lu Xi is a very gentle and kind person in his heart. He will never do such a thing as laughing at a girl when she is sincerely sad!"

"But... I'm so stupid this time that I want to laugh at myself."

The expression on Celica's face suddenly became extremely sad, and she sniffed vigorously:

"It's all to blame for this BP system that automatically jumps face after failure! Without this, I would have changed to a simple challenge after I lost to the death trial, but this broken system keeps jumping and jumping, and even said that I am [ Cai Cai Lika]! It’s too much! Isn’t this obviously forcing me to challenge again to prove myself?!”

"In this way, I fell into an infinite loop where the more I lost, the more I was slapped, and the more I was slapped, the more I wanted to win, and I bought all the precious BP and gold coins for one-time props-but in the end! I still didn't Won! Not even once!!"

"That, that is to say, did Celica spend all her savings on props once, and then use them all up?"

After struggling to understand what happened to Celica from crying, Nana forced a smile:

"However, as long as you simply give up and choose the easiest difficulty to start from scratch, you should be able to save new BP, right?"

"...No, that would be too difficult for me."

Celica fell onto the tree trunk with a bang, looking like a salted fish that became Buddhist after being beaten by life:

"In this increasingly impetuous society, who doesn't want to reach the sky in one step? How many people have the courage to start from scratch again? Well, it's fine to just lie down like this. I don't fight, I don't grab, and the smoke from the outside world won't be contaminated. I."

...Why does it feel like what Celica said makes sense?

She was almost deceived by Zelika's extremely confusing appearance, until Barney quietly pulled Lanai Nai's sleeve, the soft girl reacted belatedly:

"It doesn't matter! The trial is over! Anyway, with my grades, I probably can't beat Yuxia, so why not go to the cake shop that Lu Xi mentioned, and enjoy the delicious food that will forget all your troubles once. Cake~"

"Huh? That's right! And cake cha!"

These words obviously hit Celica's strike zone. Just now she looked like "I look away, don't bother me", she jumped up from the grass in an instant, and excitedly pulled Nana's hand:

"Then what are you waiting for! We will set off immediately! The target - Osiris Sweet Cake Shop!!!"

【…】

Seeing Nana half-accommodating and half-happy being dragged away by Celica, Barney behind him paused for a moment, then nodded imperceptibly.

For the relatively passive Nana, I am afraid that such an extroverted person is most needed as a guide.

----------------

"Very good! All the contestants have arrived!"

After serving small cakes to Nana and Celica, who came a little later, they lightly smeared the cream sticking to their faces, and puffed up their chests full of vigor:

"Then, now, Qianqian—the supreme final judge will announce the final results of the sisters!"

"Ah, ah, ah, I don't need it."

As expected of the childish Lika who is known for her optimist personality, Celica, who groaned several small cakes in a row, has completely come out of the [burning out.JPG] atmosphere just now, showing a quite open-minded smile:

"Being behind for a short time is not a defeat, but [Forbearance] before victory! Since I already know that my results are not satisfactory, I will be completely excluded from this victory and defeat, as long as the results of Nana and Yuxia are announced !"

0 The rest of the results are really embarrassing, it's okay if everyone agrees, if it is announced loudly by Qianqian who is younger than me, my face will really be lost!

"Well, if Sister Celica thinks so, then Qianqian's side is fine."

Qianqian nodded obediently, and took out the final score summary that Lu Xi had specially passed to her before:

"As of the end of the test, the balance in Yuxiya's BP account is 2434 points and 0 gold coins. It should be noted that since the BP system currently does not have the recovery function, so Yuxia's sister's [planetary monthly card] ] are not included in the total.”

What?In the case of not counting the monthly card, Yuxiya actually has more than 2000 BP left? !

Celica, who was sitting on the small cake with peace of mind, completely put herself in the position of a bystander, was so surprised that she almost choked on the strawberry.

I checked... the price of the planetary level monthly card is 2000BP, in other words, Yuxia's principal has probably been invested in this item, and she used one day to earn 0BP from 2434BP!

In this way, not only did I not earn a single BP, but I even lost all my savings, isn’t it like a five?

Celica's shock didn't last long, because the next moment, the announcement from Qianqian completely shut down her brain:

"And sister Nana's balance is... 5040BP plus 100 gold coins!"

"In the name of the final judge, Qianqian hereby announces that the winner is Sister Nana!"

Chapter 407 Her Honesty and Her Frankness

"Five, more than 5000 BP?!"

After a brief silence, Celica, who still had a little cream on her mouth, was the first to exclaim:

"Nana, how did you do it?!"

"Huh? I don't know either."

Obviously, even Ruanmei herself was surprised by this result:

"I just thought 'Although I may not win, but at least don't lose the initial money and BP', so I went directly to the trial tower and fought for a day. As for more things, I don't know much."

"Is that all there is to it?"

Celica's self-confidence has been completely shaken by the combination of Yuxia and Nana:

"I didn't even buy a monthly card, but I just fought in the trial tower for a whole day, and I can get more than 4000 points directly? Damn! I have paid so much hard work and left so much sweat, who will tell me, Why have I been working so hard before!!!”

If I knew that I would be able to win by brushing the tower honestly, why should I fight that hateful dragon of holy light?

Everything I do, is it all stupid from the beginning——

"—Let me answer this question."

When Celica's eyes started to circle, Lu Xi's voice sounded from the door of the cake shop, instantly attracting the attention of the girls:

"The reason why Nana was able to obtain a large amount of BP in a short period of time is because the difficulty level of the trial she repeatedly brushed was...【Purgatory level】."

"Eh?!"

All eyes suddenly focused on the soft girl.

------------------

"As you all know, based on the starting point of humanized service, before entering the trial tower, the tower will make a basic judgment on the strength of each person, and use this to divide the individual [trial level]."

Seeing that Nana was overwhelmed by everyone's gaze, Lu Xi explained in time:

"For example, Celica's purgatory level trial may be equal to Yuxia's difficult level trial. Under the premise of the same actual difficulty, due to the difference in personal strength, the BP obtained by Celica's purgatory level It will be much higher than Yuxia's difficulty level."

"Hey! Why do you use me as such a malicious example!"

Zelika was not happy when she heard that:

"While I know it's hypothetical, I think it's pretty disrespectful to put my name on the side of the underdog -- woo."

Picked up a piece of strawberry cake with a fork and stuffed it into Celica's mouth. After she was completely quiet, Lu Xi continued:

"As for Nana, from the very beginning, she challenged the highest level of personal difficulty - [Purgatory Level Trial]. It is precisely because of this that the BP she obtained has reached an unimaginable level."

"However, since the level of difficulty is divided by personal strength, the purgatory level should be equally difficult for Sister Nana?"

Qianqian tilted her head and found something wrong:

"Even if you can pass the customs, logically speaking, sister Nana will not be so easy."

As a frequent visitor to the Trial Tower, Qianqian has a much deeper understanding of the mechanism here than Nana and the other three.She is very clear that the purgatory level is the highest level of personal difficulty, and it is definitely not something that can be easily passed by luck - let alone so many times in a row.

"about this……"

Speaking of this, Lu Xi also sighed helplessly. He walked behind Nana, reached out and knocked Brother Barney who had been waiting silently:

"I don't know why, when calculating Nana's strength, Brother Barney doesn't even apply to the [Puppet Rules] in Osiris, and can only be counted as an ordinary iron block by the trial tower. In this way, the trial Ta's rating for Nana is entirely based on her own physical data. With Brother Barney's strength, there is no problem at all in breaking through [Nai Nai's Purgatory Level]."

After discovering Nai Nai's obviously abnormal data, Lu Xi consulted the records of the BP system for the first time, and later, he was surprised to find that Brother Barney could not be recognized as a "magic puppet" by the trial tower.

Although I have been moved many times, I still want to say: Nana, what kind of existence is what you made with your own hands!

In the judgment criteria of the trial tower, Barney, who has no clear energy core, no corresponding behavior mode module, and even the most basic transmission system inside the body, is definitely not a [magic puppet] in high-tech. Therefore, the tower can only treat it as a [iron block].

Brother Barney was directly expelled from the puppet membership by the rigid standard of the trial tower-this can be regarded as a loophole that only the strange master Nana can take advantage of.

"I see……"

After hearing this, Nana nodded thoughtfully:
