Arknights, but all characters are NPCs?

This status bar that shows what you are thinking is so annoying...

"Is there a possibility, Little Platinum? What annoys you is not the status bar, but the fact that you can actually remember the number of times?"

"You ask this every time. I think it's hard not to write it down, okay?"

Xintlia gave up and fell into a bad attitude again.

Now that the dream world has figured it out, this man should have taken enough advantage, and he has also said that he will not eat her this time, so it should be over, right?

But Xinteleya was not in a hurry to struggle to get up, because based on previous experience, this man Lu Shang still had to take another step.

"Sweat" → "Cleaning"

"Pure white shorts" → "Change clothes" → "Clean pure white shorts"

「Character Status」→「Refresh」

Then in an instant, Xinteleya felt that all the strength she had lost came back at once.

No, it's more than that.

This feeling of clearing all debuffs and refreshing the character status panel to full health, full mana, and full energy bar, restoring it to its original state...to be honest, it feels really good.

It feels like there is no alarm clock, no phone calls, no annoying boss, and I finally get a good night's sleep and wake up naturally.

Feeling refreshed all over.

This feeling is really addictive...ah, provided that she is not tormented before refreshing her status.

"Tossing?" Lu Shang glanced at the status bar above Xinteleya's head and said with a smile: "Xiao Baijin, are you sure?"

Xinteleya wanted to say yes.

But this is a**...

So Xintelaiya just shifted her gaze and said, "Since you can know my true thoughts through the status bar above my head, why do you still have to ask me?"

"Because it's more interesting to hear it from you, Little Platinum."

Tsk...you...

After such a long time, Xinteleiya has almost figured out Lu Shang's personality.

To describe it in one sentence, it is just like what Lu Shang said himself -

This is a dream, you are just dreaming.

So here you don’t need to abide by the law, you don’t need to abide by morals, and you don’t even need to abide by human nature.

Do you know how tempting this sentence is to a hard-working worker who is exploited and full of resentment every day?

But unfortunately, Xinteleiya is a normal person. You ask her to abandon morality and humanity just based on Lu Shang's few words... She can't do it, at least not in such a short time.

Even if you want her to become a citizen of the motherland and change her words from "protecting our earth" to "protecting my earth", it will take at least three days.

Just as Xinteleiya was thinking this, she discovered that Lu Shang had loosened his hand.

This made Xinteleya stunned for a moment. She turned her head subconsciously and saw that Lu Shang had stood up and was changing himself into clean clothes.

"You... let me go?" Xinteleya asked in confusion.

"What do you mean by letting you go? Didn't I do anything good to you this time?"

This time? Oh, so you're going to do something to me next time?

Xintelaiya ignored Lu Shang's words, and Lu Shang did not continue to dwell on this topic, and said: "Besides, I don't know when you will wake up, little Baijin."

"Wake up...? Ah...Is this the rule that as long as I wake up, I can go back to my normal self?"

"Yeah, so how many hours do you usually sleep, Little Platinum?"

"... ...,have no idea."

"do not know?"

"If I'm lucky, I can sleep for eight hours."

"Bad luck?"

"Just as I lay down, my boss called me and asked me to work overtime."

"Wow, that's tragic."

"..."

060. Isn’t beating up your boss the most classic show?

The resentment of workers is indeed a bit scary.

So Lu Shang thought about it and waved his hand: "Okay, let's go."

"Where?"

Xinteleya is not a fool, of course she has to ask.

What if this man wanted to take her to the restaurant and eat her as a dish?

And Xinteleya has not forgotten that the man just laughed at her.

Bad! Stare at him!

Then when Lu Shang turned to look at her, Xinteleiya silently shifted her gaze away again.

"Of course, it's to let you, Little Platinum, know the benefits of this dream world, so that you won't end up like Kal'tsit and W, who have to stay awake to resist the second time they come back after they travel back."

Huh? Is there really someone who does this?

But judging from Lu Shang's tone, I guess they all failed, right?

So there was no choice but for Xinteleiya to follow Lu Shang.

Along the way, Lu Shang first let Xintelaiya get in touch with other operators, and let Xintelaiya gradually believe and confirm that these were all NPCs.

「Set Destination」→「Casimir」

"Set time point" → "Maria Linguang"

"Casimir... Is this the recall room you mentioned earlier?"

Although Xinteleiya didn't know what Lu Shang wanted to do, she could still understand his handwriting.

And...Maria Linguang?

The surname Linguang...

"Yes, the timeline in this dream is equivalent to your future, Little Platinum. Otherwise, how do you think I could accurately describe your three time periods as a little idol, an independent knight, and a corporate worker?"

"... ..., the introduction of office workers is redundant."

Although Xintelaiya couldn't refute it.

and--

"arrive."

Lu Shang spoke up, interrupting Xinteleiya's wild thoughts.

She looked up subconsciously, and was stunned by the scene in front of her.

"This is...really Casimir?"

There are tall buildings, busy traffic and people coming and going.

The scene before her was exactly the same as the Casimir that Hintleya remembered... Well, there were still some differences, such as a few more shops she didn't recognize, some closed stores, the knights advertised on the posters, and so on.

If passers-by hadn't completely ignored the two of them, as if they shouldn't be here at all, then Xinteleya would probably have confused this place with reality.

"So..." Xinteleya was a little confused: "What are we doing here?"

"Don't worry, I'm looking for the NPC's location."

Lu Shang searched quickly and soon brought Xinteleiya to an open space.

then:

"The Blue Gold Throne...?!"

Yes, the NPC that Lu Shang took Xintelaiya to find was Xintelaiya’s boss in real life, the Qingjin Lord of the No-Head Alliance.

Even though she knew that the other person was just an NPC, years of office life still made Xinteleia subconsciously shrink back the moment she saw the NPC.

But he was soon brought back by Lu Shang.

“What are you afraid of? The NPCs have already been found for you, just go.” Lu Shang pointed at the NPC and began to encourage him.

"Go...what are you going to do?"

"Beat up the stupid boss, isn't this a classic part?"

"..."

Beat up your boss...?

Xinteleya looked at Lu Shang, then looked at the NPC of the Qingjin High Position, and swallowed her saliva: "I... can I really...?"

"Oh, don't worry, it's very safe. But I haven't tried what would happen if I killed an NPC, so I'll just add a little insurance."

As he spoke, Lu Shang stretched out his hand and waved towards the NPC.

「Status」→「Lock blood」

"Yes, that's it. Go ahead, Little Platinum."

Xintelaiya: "..."

No, that's not what I'm worried about. What I'm worried about is...

Forget it.

I have to say, no one can resist this temptation.

So even though Sintela was a bad player, after hesitating for a long time, she took a deep breath, walked forward, and then tentatively threw a punch.

Later I found that even after being punched, the NPC didn't react at all. He just fell to the ground and then got up.

Moreover, when I found that the opponent NPC didn't lose even a bit of blood when I "locked" blood——

"Wow." Lu Shang intercepted a cup of milk tea that a clerk was about to hand to a customer in a nearby milk tea shop. He drank it while watching the show: "The resentment of the workers is indeed a bit scary."

But that’s fine too.

As long as the seed of "I can do whatever I want in the dream world, even beat up my stupid boss" is planted in Xintelaiya's heart, there is no need to worry that she will not come.

It was not until a long time later, when Xinteleya had finally vented most of her anger, that Lu Shang stepped forward.

"Am I right?" Lu Shang handed over the milk tea in his hand: "This is a dream, just a beautiful dream. Here you don't have to abide by the law, morality, or even human nature."

"..."

Like a devil whispering.

Xinteleya bit her lip and looked at Lu Shang in silence.

She knew that if she was really tempted by the devil's whispers, she would probably not be able to turn back.

But Lu Shang is not in a hurry either.

Because soon, Xinteleiya reached out and took the cup of milk tea handed to her by Lu Shang.

Xinteleya's concept of this dream world changed slightly at this moment.

... ... ...

... ...
