My Prince

"Eleven percent?"

Bai Zhi glanced at the Young Girl beside him, his expression quite strange.

"Headaches can even increase combat power... So you do have Psyduck blood after all?"

"... My head doesn't hurt now."

After a moment of silence, the Dead Zero, turned his head.

There were some things she simply couldn't bring herself to say.

Could she really say that she did indeed have a splitting headache at first, just as the March-shi described, but that her headache suddenly stopped after the other person hugged her?

Even if she is completely ignorant of social etiquette, she wouldn't say something like that too easily.

"Fine, whatever you want. Just remember to tell me if you have a headache soon."

Seeing that the other party was unwilling to admit it, Bai Zhi didn't bother to say anything more.

He glanced at the March-shi and the Between Heaven and Earth’s Mountains and Seas, then casually took out the small Glass Bottle. Inside the Glass Bottle were the earthworms he had casually caught earlier.

In his current state, summoning the Blue-Eyes White Dragon wouldn't be a problem. Although the Blue-Eyes White Dragon would most likely try to kill him immediately after being summoned and start chasing him, as long as he kept running towards the other side, he could probably create a three-on-two situation...

Do you want to save your comrades?

Seeing Bai Zhi's malicious gaze and the aura of the Dead Zero gathering around him, March-shi's lips twitched slightly, and he took the initiative to speak.

"Don't be fooled by the fact that we've reached the Finish Line. Successfully getting to that coffin and killing Anna will be extremely difficult, because powerful Monster will spontaneously spawn around the coffin during the process... How about we team up?"

"Cooperation... you're serious?"

Looking at the March-shi before him, Bai Zhi raised an eyebrow slightly.

"There are no absolute enemies, only eternal interests. If a war were to break out, you would be at a greater disadvantage. I was merely offering advice from your perspective that would be most advantageous to you."

The March-shi began to speak calmly.

"Due to the influence of the Anomaly, our world requires a vast amount of resources. However, in a world largely eroded by these Anomaly, finding enough supplies is incredibly difficult. People are starving or freezing to death every day; we're on the verge of collapse. Therefore, wars of invasion against other worlds are necessary, as we need to obtain sufficient resources from your world... Player don't represent everything; common people are crucial for the survival of a civilization. Personally, I don't enjoy internal strife, but I'm fearless in a real battle. There's only one condition for cooperation: deliver the exclusive loot reward for defeating Anna to us."

"Without the [Night Evolution Breath] helping you uncover the hidden rules, would you have been able to succeed so easily? Don't push your luck."

Shaking his head, Bai Zhi lightly snapped his fingers.

As he moved his hand, a muffled thud suddenly rang out, and then, Between Heaven and Earth’s Mountains and Seas, who had a wary expression, suddenly had his hair stand on end.

Although the Explosion was small, it still messed up her hair.

"You...!?"

"Control your emotions, or next time it won't just be her hair that explodes, it might be her head or something."

Maintaining a snapping gesture, Bai Zhi narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at the March-shi in front of him, who rarely displayed such an expression.

"Or do you want to see your sister's body suddenly explode?"

"... when?"

She roughly combed her hair, then looked up at him expressionlessly from the Between Heaven and Earth’s Mountains and Seas.

"When I saved you before, this was my Seventh Sense. Wherever my body touched, it would turn into a bomb that I could control, and it would last for one day."

Shrugging, Bai Zhi gave a nonchalant reply.

"In other words, you are now a bomb under my control. That was just a warning. Want to try again?"

--Tear off a small piece of toilet paper and glue it into the other person's hair; it's a very useful method.

The Toilet Paper Mine is actually quite useful in certain situations, but unfortunately its destructive power is too low, and it's also a consumable item. Right now, Bai Zhi only has less than a quarter roll of toilet paper left.

"You can't kill me."

A cold voice spoke from Between Heaven and Earth’s Mountains and Seas.

"This is just a small lesson for you, and a little demonstration of my strength and Trump Card. If it really comes down to a fight, are you so sure you'll win? Don't underestimate me."

Bai Zhi pursed his lips and withdrew his hand.

"Cooperation is fine, but we'll be in control. If you disagree, let's fight. Who's afraid of who?"

"... Yes, but are you capable of breaking through the blockade?"

After a moment of silence, looking at the Young Girl with her eyes tightly closed who gave him a vague sense of Life doom, and considering the Black&White in front of him that he could never truly understand, the March-shi finally spoke up and made a concession.

"To get to the coffin and kill Anna, you'll need more than just..."

"You just need to watch from the sidelines. If you make the slightest move, I will not hesitate to have the Dead Zero draw her sword and kill you, and then let your sister explode. You can try it if you don't believe me."

He waved his hand, directly interrupting the other person, and without any intention of wasting words, Bai Zhi walked straight towards the Crystal Coffin.

"..."

Aside from the currently blind and Dead Zero, both the March-shi and the Between Heaven and Earth’s Mountains and Seas turned their gazes to Bai Zhi.

It must be said that Night Evolution Breath, this Senior Investigator, is quite strong. After all, he is a formidable person who has survived several unsolvable Type of Anomaly. However, he consumed too much energy in the early stages and did not last long when passing through that passage.

The last leg of a journey is the hardest, and the final stretch is not so easy to traverse. Although Between Heaven and Earth’s Mountains and Seas was the Unique person to reach this final area before, she still couldn't get to the crystal coffin.

At that moment, as Bai Zhi walked to within about 100 meters of the coffin, a terrifying change occurred on the empty ground. The empty ground quickly turned into a pool of blood and flesh, and dozens of thick, blood-red tentacles grew out of the ground and pounced towards Bai Zhi like lightning.

But in the next second, just as the tentacles were about to touch Bai Zhi, they all shattered in mid-air, turning into vibrant roses that landed on his hands.

The Emerald Grassland quickly replaced the twisted flesh and blood, and various flowers bloomed in the grass. Butterflies fluttered among the grass, and a Red Carpet appeared from Bai Zhi's feet, stretching straight to the Crystal Coffin.

March-shi: "..."

Between Heaven and Earth’s Mountains and Seas: "..."

Meanwhile, in the first layer of the dream...

The giant Plush Cat quietly stayed by Anna's side, staring intently at the words written on the card in front of her. Anna spoke softly to herself.

"Will you really be my Prince Your Highness...?"
