Others are fighting hard but I am the first to show off. I am rated S?

But what surprised him was that when he carefully sensed it, all the phantom pains disappeared, as if it was a dream.

Yes, a dream.

He had another nightmare last night.

Everything was fine at the beginning. He just asked Xiaoguai to change into the cat-eared girl's costume and ask her to perform a backflip for him. How come the scene suddenly changed and Xiaoguai appeared in the basement prison with a whip in her hand and wearing black high heels?

He rubbed his eyes and came to the sink. Xiaoguai took a hot towel and wiped his cheek gently and carefully.

He opened his eyes and saw the beautiful, lovely and well-behaved Xiaoguai.

When I closed my eyes, the image that emerged in my mind was a devilish version of Xiaoguai, with an arrogant and crazy look on his face, waving a whip with a loud snapping sound.

Is it true that Xiaoguai doesn’t have little devil horns on his head and a long, slender heart-shaped tail behind him?

The soft and warm cloth of the hot towel adheres closely to the skin pores, delicately wiping away the dust accumulated on the face after a night.

He opened his eyes and looked carefully again to make sure it was not there.

I don't know why, but I feel a little regretful.

"Brother Li Jing?"

Xiaoguai tilted his head for some unknown reason.

"nothing."

Li Jing pinched her little face and pointed at the dark circles under her eyes, "Didn't you sleep well last night?"

Xiaoguai nodded and pulled the corner of his clothes.

"When a person sleeps, he is always prone to dreaming..."

She seemed to be about to say something but stopped herself. She was silent for a while, then raised her blushing face and looked at him pitifully.

"Brother Li Jing, can I hold your hand when we go to sleep next time?"

[Promise her! Promise her! Promise her! ]

[Wow, it hurts, it really hurts, my back teeth are broken, why is it not me who is being held by Xiaoguai’s hand and begged? ]

[My dear, my dear, how come you give in so quickly? You have already taken the initiative to ask me to sleep in the same bed with you. I dare not imagine how much you will give in next! ]

[Li Jing, cherish the little girl in front of you. You may never meet a good girl like this in your whole life.]

[I hope that after this trial game is over, Guaibao can still live a simple and happy life in this world. ]

Compared to the peaceful and harmonious barrage in Li Jing's live broadcast room, the barrage in other players' live broadcast rooms seemed a bit out of place.

In Xu Hao’s live broadcast room.

Looking at Xu Hao, who was seriously injured in yesterday's battle and is still in a coma, the audience fell into a pessimistic and negative attitude.

[How should we fight next? Brother Hao has lost one leg and one arm, and has completely lost his fighting ability. What should we do if we encounter a nightmare beast like yesterday? ]

[Although I gained source power by killing those weak nightmare beasts, this amount of power is not enough compared to the real giant nightmare beasts. ]

[The Nightmare King hasn't even appeared yet, I have no idea how to fight him. ]

[No matter how many ants gather together, they are still just ants. Ants that can be crushed with one foot. It always feels like there is no hope.]

In Liu Lingxue’s live broadcast room.

The girl, as noble and beautiful as ice and snow, could no longer maintain her disheveled figure. The whistling wind messed up her long black hair, revealing her haggard and pale face.

There were a lot of blood stains on her white clothes and skirt. Liu Lingxue gritted her teeth and held the sword, killing another nightmare beast, then hurriedly fled into the distance.

Behind her, many strange, hideous and terrifying nightmare beasts were chasing her closely, swarming towards her like locusts.

[Alas, after a series of tough battles, Sister Ling Xue can no longer hold on. ]

[I don't know why so many nightmare beasts suddenly appeared and chased Sister Ling Xue. It was as if she was cursed by some kind of bad luck.]

[Luckily, the giant nightmare beast that passed by yesterday didn’t notice Sister Ling Xue, otherwise…]

[Although the source of energy seems to be able to make up for the physical exhaustion, but the mental exhaustion, how long can Sister Lingxue last? ]

[Even at this point, Sister Ling Xue never gave up and gritted her teeth to persevere. For some reason, it was heartbreaking and admirable to see her like that.]

[The most powerful player in Mingxia City right now is Sister Lingxue, right? Even Sister Lingxue is in such a mess, can we really face the Nightmare Beast King who will wake up in a few days? ]

[Perhaps there is a chance of a turn of events? There are more ways to clear the game than just using your strength to fly. Remember the hidden quest that the host, Hibi, mentioned? The key to defeating the Nightmare King may be hidden in the hidden quest that has yet to be discovered.]

[Alas, but with Sister Ling Xue currently being chased by a large group of nightmare beasts, how can she find the time to look for the hidden branch? ]

The comments in most live broadcast rooms show a negative and pessimistic attitude, and even some players' live broadcast rooms are filled with various comments venting their anger.

[If you can't even defeat the lowest level nightmare beast, what kind of player is this? Will you be able to fight? ]

[Can you pick up the kitchen knife in your hand and chop it? You can only run away, only run away, only run away? You are a coward in reality, and you are also a coward in the trial game. I guess your life will be like this for the rest of your life. ]

[Waste! You are so unbelievable! How could your parents give birth to such a thing as you?]

The atmosphere in the Blue Star world became depressing and gloomy.

In fact, there are smart people among the 9.9 billion people. Some of them have discovered some clues by watching the live broadcast, made some strategy analysis, and saw the hope of completing the world mission.

But the key point is, what’s the use even if we analyze it?

Players in the trial plane can’t see the barrage again!

Even if we release these guides with the intention of boosting everyone's confidence and morale, what if the players don't even think about this level and just perform poorly and die in the trial plane?

Isn't this equivalent to giving people hope first and then despair, dealing a heavier blow to everyone on Blue Star?

With the awakening of the behemoth-level nightmare beast, the number of remaining players in the trial plane is getting smaller and smaller.

The negative emotions in the real world also spread here. Although players can gain source power by killing nightmare beasts, they still see no hope.

Some of these players felt confused and lost confidence in the future because their backbone fell into a coma.

Some people are facing endless pursuit by nightmare beasts because of someone's slight malice, and are exhausted from running around.

Some were just unlucky and died in the mouth of the nightmare beast.

Some, like Li Jing, chose to escape, finding a place to hide, anxiously hoping to live to the seventh day.

Some were even killed by local survivors, dying silently and without any value.

In the real world and the world of trial plane, there is a feeling of impending storm and precarious situation.

In the basement room.

After breakfast, the two of them snuggled together, peaceful and calm.

The stormy world outside has nothing to do with them; this cozy little house in front of them is their world.

Li Jing held the girl gently in his arms, holding a storybook in his hands and reading a fairy tale lullaby softly.

Naturally, he agreed to the girl's previous request. Not only did he agree to hold her hand and go to sleep with her in the future, but after breakfast and when the girl had washed the dishes and tidied the house, he asked the girl who had not slept well last night to catch up on her sleep.

So the girl pulled him to sit on the sofa, snuggled into his arms, and closed her eyes lightly.

The sounds of wind and rain from the outside world were isolated outside the cabin. The two of them huddled close to each other, snuggling up to each other. All they could hear was each other's heartbeats, and all they could feel was each other's warmth and breathing.

Li Jing's soft and magnetic voice was like a pair of gentle big hands that gently smoothed Xiaoguai's slightly wrinkled brows.

The nightmare of last night, the hypocritical and ugly faces of the man and woman, seemed to gradually melt away in such soft, warm and delicate atmosphere.

When Xiaoguai was very young, he watched the babies in TV commercials falling asleep peacefully while their parents sang lullabies and read storybooks. He always couldn't help but imagine that one day his own parents would hold him in their arms and coax him to sleep with the softest and most beautiful voice in the world.

But her parents only want her to be obedient and good.

Mingming found several fairy tale books in the study, so he happily but timidly held the books and timidly asked his father or mother for their company, but they always said they were busy with work, and Xiaoguai should understand the hard work of his parents.

They must have read it to my brother, but I didn't.

Xiaoguai lowered his head timidly and said "ok" sensibly.

But sometimes, when the night was dark and the moonlight was just right, she couldn't help but fantasize on her lonely single bed.

She fantasized that her parents were by her side. Her father would read interesting fairy tales in a gentle and pleasant voice, and her mother would hum a lullaby softly while covering her with a quilt, gently pushing away her hair from her forehead, and looking at the smile on her face.

Such fantasies never came true.

But now, Xiaoguai was nestling in Li Jing's arms, listening to him reciting a storybook, realizing a fantasy that had never come true before.

A strand of hair fell on her cheek. Li Jing gently brushed away the naughty hair with his fingers, looking at the cute and obedient sleeping face of the girl in his arms, a smile appeared on his face.

It is so warm and reassuring, as if all the pain and nightmares are healed and dissipated under such tenderness and care.

The girl's body and mind relaxed unconsciously.

Li Jing's voice, Li Jing's face, his temperature, his breath, gradually covered up the painful and unfortunate past, and diluted the abyss-like darkness.

The girl's curled up posture slowly relaxed and she fell asleep in Li Jing's arms. She was more beautiful than Sleeping Beauty, like a holy and loving angel who closed her eyes peacefully in the arms of the Lord. It was incomparably moving and beautiful.

Only the little hand resting on his collar was holding that corner tightly even in her sleep, as if she was reluctant to be separated from him.

Li Jing looked at the sleeping girl, thinking that she would easily catch a cold if she just lay on the sofa like this, so he gently picked up the girl, opened the door of her room, and carefully put her on the bed.

"Brother Li Jing, we agreed... to hold my hand..."

Even in her sleep, the girl seemed to sense his departure and she murmured unconsciously, the little hand that was clutching his collar tightly not letting go.

Li Jing had no choice but to reach out and hold her other hand, and the little hand that was holding her collar slowly loosened.

He held her hand and sat on the edge of the bed, covered her with the quilt, and looked around the room.

The pink room has a very girly feel, with various heart-shaped decorations, stuffed dolls, etc., which are in line with his impression of girls of this age.

The only thing that stands out in the whole room is probably the photo on the pink desk, which looks yellowed under the dim light of the desk lamp.

In the photo, a man and a woman are holding a baby and smiling brightly.

This should be Xiaoguai and her parents, right?

Li Jing looked at the wrinkled photo that was obviously very old. He remembered that when he first met Xiaoguai, she was holding this photo tightly in her hand. It was obvious that this photo was very important to her.

It is her most precious treasure, right?

That's why I always keep it on the desk and always turn on the desk lamp to illuminate it. Not only can I see my parents' faces when I wake up, but I can also always feel that my parents are still by my side.

When he thought of this, and then thought of his excessive behavior yesterday, he couldn't help but blame his past self.

Li Jing, Li Jing, what on earth are you doubting about?

How could Xiaoguai be the kind of bad woman who is gloomy and dark with hidden thoughts and has been acting to fool him? She is already so pitiful, and you deliberately provoke her emotions to test her, making her sad and upset. Are you a human being?

As a gangster, the last person you should question is the big brother who led you to victory!

Thinking of this, Li Jing secretly held Xiaoguai's hand and made a vow in his heart.

Don't worry, little darling. You have helped me, a scoundrel, to get through these seven days successfully. After I get the reward from the scoundrel system, I will try every possible way to take you away from this doomsday world full of monsters, and I will never let you be sad again!

At this moment, Xiaoguai felt the warmth from the palm of his hand, feeling the unprecedented warmth and security, and another thought could not help but arise in his mind.

Li Jing, Brother Li Jing’s interesting toy, was increasingly reluctant to destroy him, and reluctant to let him die of fear and despair after seeing his true face.

Even though he was a toy, I would sometimes suddenly feel that he made me feel a little...

Forget it, considering that he risked his life to save me and that he fulfilled a childhood wish of mine, I will give him a fortune on the seventh day of his main quest.

Xiaoguai had already made up his mind. On the seventh day, he would control half of his body to press on the heads of the nightmare beasts and line up in front of Li Jing to die.

In this way, he will be able to obtain a large amount of source power and become stronger quickly, standing out from the crowd in this game of Trial of All Worlds. In the end, the so-called settlement evaluation will definitely be very high, right?

As for sacrificing oneself just to improve his so-called settlement evaluation?

Impossible, that's absolutely impossible!

Giving him wealth and prosperity was already a rare act of kindness on her part, and she even offered herself along with it?

It's just a toy, she's not so selfless as to do this!

Chapter 20 Thank you, Brother Li Jing, thank you

……

Xiaoguai didn’t sleep long and woke up at noon.

The girl who just woke up was still a little dazed, her eyes were a little out of focus, a few naughty hairs were messily sticking up on her head, and she looked confused and cute.

Li Jing reached out and gently pressed down those naughty hairs, and whispered softly:

"woke up?"
