Arknights, but all characters are NPCs?

Cintrea shook her head.

Then, just when Zofia thought that this little maid was using the same bad logic again——

"Why should I work so hard to train?" Xinteleya asked back, "I just need to show off my sex appeal to please the Dream Master. Who knows, when the Dream Master is happy, he might lock my health or lock my face. Then I can beat up whoever I want, right?"

Sofia: “…”

You...are you, a little maid, so pragmatic?

Are you going for the "lock panel"?

But thinking about Theresa who was the first to try it, and Frost Star who is now playing "Come on! Dog Emperor, do you dare to come out and fight?!" in Ursus...

"Then..." Zofia thought for a moment and asked, "If you really get the "lock panel", what do you want to do?"

Revenge on society? Conquer the world? Or...

"I'm going to beat up Lord Qingjin in reality." said Xinteleya.

Sofia: “…”

You, a little maid,...that's all you can accomplish.

Sofia suddenly felt that the dream master was really good at judging people.

But after Xinteleya finished speaking, she turned her head and looked at her, and spoke again: "Then I will live a life of having my clothes handed to me and my food provided for me. Oh, yes, I will also let you be my maid, young lady."

Sofia: “???”

... ... ...

... ...

...

Texas thought that the next person to enter the dream would be Exia.

Lu Shang also thinks so.

After all, there are plots, life, obsessions, and an eagerness to change the status quo, and there are also plot changes - isn't this Archangel born to persecute... Oh no, is he born to be a holy body that can enter dreams?

but no.

Texas fell asleep this time, and told Lu Shang that according to the Angel's schedule, it would be time to go to bed in about 10 minutes.

Then Lu Shang waited with her. Not to mention 10 minutes, Lu Shang waited with Texas for nearly an hour, but in the end, not to mention the Angel Power, he didn't even see the Angel Bear.

Realizing that he had been cheated, Lu Shang pinned Texas to the ground and gave him a good rub on the head.

"No, let me ask first, does the Angel know about the dream world?" Lu Shang suddenly remembered this when he was putting on his pants.

Texas heard this and tilted his head while getting dressed: "It seems I don't know."

"If you don't even know about the dream world, how could the Archangel come here?"

Angelica has obsession, but it is not deep. It is not to the extent of Sintelaia, who says, "I'm tired, so let's destroy it. Whatever happens."

Unless Mostima said in front of Archangel, "I came and I left again. Where am I going? Don't worry about it, Archangel. When will I be back? Don't ask, Archangel," and then left Archangel alone with her eyes wide open, Archangel might be so anxious that she wanted to fall asleep.

After all, having no expectations from the beginning and having expectations only to be disappointed are two completely different concepts.

As for the plot recap...

Unfortunately.

"The Law of Noise" is an ensemble drama, and if we have to say the protagonist's perspective, it should be from Baison.

"Syracus" is still an ensemble drama, with the protagonist's perspective being on Texas.

As for "The Way We Lead"? Guess what? It's about Lateran and Shakota, but what about the Archangels who are Lateran and Shakota? There is no such person.

So——

"What are you thinking about, dog?"

"Hmm? I was thinking... if the conditions for dreaming are "obsession", "knowledge" and "plot", then Exia, Sora, and Mastema may all dream. It's just a matter of time."

Because these people are Texas' friends and her "present", Texas is very concerned about them.

But precisely because of this, even Texas showed a subtle look: "But Croissant... Croissant doesn't seem to be able to..."

Does Croissant have obsession? Does Croissant have plot?

It seems like there is none...

Are you persecuting Brave Niu Niu again? There is no such person in the real world, and there is no such person in the dream world, right?

When Penguin Logistics gathers in the dream world, they will ask, "Eh? Where's the croissant?" I don't know.

Oh, in this case, it seems that Croissant has an obsession, wanting not to be persecuted? Wanting to have a higher sense of existence?

"Croissant? Who? Which one? That child I don't recognize. Is he a new operator?"

Lu Shang waved his hand, said something casually, and then planned to leave. He wanted to take this German dog to find W and let her be the tour guide again.

I just took a few steps forward.

Ding dong.

Along with the system notification sound, a pop-up window appeared in Lu Shang's sight:

「ID:'初雪' has logged in」

215. This first snow is full of resentment, and ghosts passing by will be slapped twice

Kjerag, a peculiar little country.

A country built on snow-capped mountains.

It is strange because Kjerag is more like a village than a country.

While other countries are still fighting to the death, you are invading my territory, I will start a war with you, kings and generals, do you dare to come out and fight me? My brother, it’s time for me to sit on this dragon throne——

The dispute between Kjerag and me was about whether you stepped on my field or stole my cow. If you win against the village next door, I will give you a separate page of the family tree.

When criticizing other countries on Terra, the most common phrase used is "Capitalism is considered a civilized society in your country."

And what about Kjerag?

Hey, they are still in an agricultural civilization.

The most classic joke is that when Argo broadcast a full-channel broadcast to the entire Terra, and everyone was amazed at Argo's advanced science and technology, who do you think would be dismissive of it?

It's Kjerag!

Since Kjerag doesn't have internet access yet, even if you ask them, they will just say "What happened? I don't know."

And it is such a village with simple folk customs...Oh no, it’s a country, and they believe in God.

This is actually easy to understand. As an agricultural civilization, people rely on the weather for their livelihood. If they want good weather and good harvests, they must have some hope. It is natural for them to believe in gods.

But Kjerag is different, Kjerag's gods are real.

Yelagund—that was the name of the god.

They are of the same clan as Nian, Xi and Ling from Dayan.

Since there are gods, there must be saints.

As for the saint, you can tell what she does just by listening to the name. She serves God, acts as God's spokesperson, spreads the Lord's gospel, and so on.

And Hatsuyuki, the little girl in "ID: 'Hatsuyuki' has logged in", is the saint of this generation.

"..."

"..."

"Where...is this?"

In the dream world, the operator dormitory of Rhodes Island.

Chu Xue opened her eyes and looked around in confusion.

She remembered...she should have stayed in the Holy Temple, with other girls of the same age, expecting and waiting for the first drop of melted snow to fall...

But why did she end up in a completely unfamiliar place in just the blink of an eye?

Is it an illusion?

But this illusion was so real, the bed was so soft, and even the temperature was not cold at all. Instead, it was so hot that I was sweating.

"Fever... I remember that when people are about to freeze to death, they will have the illusion that their bodies are hot, and then take off their clothes..."

"So I'm dying?"

"And everything in front of me... is just an illusion before I die?"

Hatsuyuki seemed to have come to a wrong answer.

But she did not panic, instead she laughed out loud.

Anger, disgust, disappointment, Chuxue's eyes were filled with such emotions.

She didn't even think about saving herself, she just lowered her head and looked at the clothes she was wearing.

After all, she is also a young and beautiful girl. Although she has also had the idea of ​​"Why not just die like this", but if the way she dies is to take off all her clothes and be stared at naked by others... then Chuxue still doesn't want to do that.

Just bow your head——

"Hey...what is this dress...?" Hatsuyuki made a surprised sound.

She was wearing a wool-lined turtleneck sweater, a fur waistcoat, and a knitted coat.

Just by looking at the description, you can imagine how thick the clothes are when it comes to snowing for the first time. Probably the kind that if you accidentally fall on your butt, you will bounce a few times on the ground.

But even though she was wrapped so tightly, Chu Xue's breasts were still big enough to burst out, and her beautiful figure was beyond words.

But Chuxue was not concerned about her figure, but her clothes: "Is this... the clothes of a saint? Why is it on me? Is this also an illusion? I imagined that I succeeded in becoming a saint?"

"impossible."

It is absolutely impossible.

Chu Xue never thought of becoming a saint. She even felt genuine disgust towards the position of a saint.

My dream of the first snow is to curl up on the soft sofa by the warm fireplace, play with my favorite fabrics, sip a cup of fragrant tea, and read a book for the afternoon. That's all.

Yes, that's all.

But such a simple dream was gone after a word from her dear brother.

Her brother asked her to become a saint.

why?

Chu Xue didn't understand, she didn't comprehend, she couldn't even accept it.

Because how can one become a saint?

Only when the previous saint dies, all the girls of the right age will enter the saint selection temple. Only those who are hit by the first drop of melted snow water in the temple that day will be qualified to become a saint.

After that, the chosen one must hold the trial bell and set out from the Holy Temple, following the rule of nodding once every three steps and ringing the bell once every five steps, and walk along the Heavenly Road to the God's residence on the mountain until the trial bell is hung on the bell rack.

But as I said at the beginning, Kjerag is a country built on snow-capped mountains.

The road is long, with wind and snow. It is common to have a blizzard and an avalanche.

Without an oxygen tank or protective clothing, he just walked around in a single layer. Even if Terra had a superhuman physique, he couldn't withstand this.

So what if something happens to the chosen one along the way?

Then just die. Once you die, the qualification will be given to others.

So her brother...why would he say that when he knew that the selection of the Saint was so difficult and she might even die there?

Chuxue had an argument with her brother, argued with him, and then compromised.

The relationship between the siblings broke down completely.

So much so that now, when Chu Xue mistakenly thought that she was about to die, she showed such anger, disgust, and even disappointment.

So in her hallucination before death, how could she have disgusted herself? Become a saint? Haha.

But...if it's not an illusion...
