Peering

The scenes in Linsey's memory continue.

The boy, who had just become an Awakened One, fled frantically through the snow, devising a plan to kill the Devil Beast that was chasing him.

The Fairy Girl witnessed all of these experiences.

She wore an alluring smile and didn't hesitate to praise Linsey:

"Although it has just been awakened."

"But for a child to kill a Devil Beast, you've been a bit abnormal since you were little."

Linsey completely ignored the other party.

He was contemplating his current state and how to escape the illusion.

Before he was completely under control, he was certain that he had seen the state of [Dizziness - Coma - Hallucination], and the increased resistance of the [Mountains Crest] might be able to help with this.

However, for the sake of battle, Linsey had previously switched to the most offensive [Magma Crest].

He's now in a predicament; he can't switch magic runes.

"We can only wait for the right opportunity..."

Meanwhile, the scenes from my memory continue.

The Fairy Girl didn't say much to Linsey, who was ignoring her. She sped up some unnecessary images, and when the Border Town came into view, she exclaimed again, "This must be that human town, right?"

"In recent years, there have been some reckless individuals who have tried to travel to this world."

The Fairy Girl's gaze fell on Linsey again, her voice filled with seductive allure. "But you're the first one to come to me."

"A brave little guy~~"

"..."

Linsey remained silent, the images in her memory continuing to fade into the past.

Finally, during a question-and-answer session, the Fairy Girl's movements suddenly stopped, and the flow of the entire memory scene also paused.

It all started when she heard Linsey say something.

The smile on her exquisite face even took on an eerie danger, "Human, you want to kill my beloved!"

"..."

"This guy likes Dragon Beast?" Linsey immediately realized the other person's thoughts and understood that this was a rare opportunity. He made a decision in less than a thousandth of a second, and then adopted a stubborn attitude:

"Every living creature has weaknesses."

"And a weakness means you can be killed!"

"..."

Hahahaha!

After a brief pause, the Fairy Girl burst into unrestrained laughter.

She even laughed until tears streamed down her face, her chest almost touching her back, her body swaying in the air. "What kind of funny joke are you trying to tell me?"

"A weak, short-lived being, trying to kill a mighty and powerful Dragon Beast?"

"If you want to please me this way, then keep trying. Maybe if I'm happy, I'll really let you go?"

Linsey, however, looked beyond this arrogant facade and coldly pointed out the key point. "You didn't deny that the Dragon Beast does have weaknesses."

The Fairy Girl's unrestrained laughter came to an abrupt halt.

She floated in front of Linsey's consciousness, their eyes locked, revealing a murderous intent. "So what if you have a weakness?"

"Do you even know how capable you are? You're about to die by my hand, yet you dare to dream of reaching Black Mountain?"

The Fairy Girl asserted, "Weak humans should be aware of their weakness and not try to do things that are not within their reach!"

"For you, escaping this world is an unrealistic dream."

"The guy I easily caught is spouting nonsense here..."

"Ice." Linsey suddenly interrupted the Fairy Girl, uttering a single word, "Or rather, temperature. Dragon Beast are extremely sensitive to changes in temperature, which is also their weakness!"

"..."

The Fairy Girl's taunts vanished instantly.

She stood frozen in place, her gaze towards Linsey extremely dangerous.

"How did you know that?"

This guy's taken the bait!

Linsey was overjoyed, confirming his previous guess about the Dragon Beast's weakness.

However, we still need to keep this guy on our own, stall for time as much as possible, and wait for the right opportunity.

Even though continuing to induce them may be dangerous, there is no other way now.

Linsey outwardly adopted an expression of utter sarcasm:

"Aren't you reading my memories? Then continue!"

The Fairy Girl flew into a rage. "You think I wouldn't do that?!"

The images in my memory began to rapidly shift backward.

Linsey needs to buy time.

The Fairy Girl also wanted to know how the human in front of her knew the weakness of the Dragon Beast.

Time slips away in an unseen game.

In the memories, Linsey is still experiencing everything. The Fairy Girl doesn't care much about the abilities Linsey initially displayed, because at the beginning of her transmigration, the true power of the [Game Player] was only just beginning and had not yet shown its full potential.

But after a full three years of growth, when Finn died.

Linsey inevitably started to feel nervous.

This Time Node marks a turning point in his rapid growth. Not only could information leaks pose a danger, but the [Glorious Bullet] he demonstrated must absolutely not be discovered by the enemy at hand!

Linsey immediately provoked the Fairy Girl: "Are you going through my memories so thoroughly to provide information for that Dragon Beast?"

"Didn't you just say so confidently that I couldn't possibly defeat it?"

"..."

The Fairy Girl gave Linsey a cold look, and this time it was her turn to ignore Linsey.

Linsey still didn't give up; he thought of the Fairy Girl's words about "my love."

He immediately had an idea:

"Were your emotions forcibly manipulated by the Dragon Beast, or were your actions dominated by illusory emotions? Or to put it another way, do you Devil Beast beasts even understand love?"

This provocative denial of the other person's feelings worked.

The Fairy Girl flew into a rage. "Humans, aren't you the culprits?!"

"If it weren't for the threats you made to my beloved beneath Black Mountain, why would it have chosen to advance in such a hurry?"

The Dragon Beast are being threatened by humans! And this power comes from the other side of the world? Linsey suddenly thought of the conjecture that Anrui had told him in the Hidden Borderlands.

For a full decade, even though this outpost wasn't important, the relatives and friends of the Expedition Team's elite members would still keep an eye on its situation.

Perhaps it is because of certain powerful individuals who attempted to break through the barriers between the worlds from the other side of Black Mountain.

The Dragon Beast was forced to advance its level.

But no one expected that this rescue would backfire.

The Dragon Beast began to forcibly advance, and the danger level increased accordingly, becoming even difficult to deal with.

Meanwhile, Hidden Borderlands towns are also facing a life-or-death crisis due to this world-class change.

"Well..."

Linsey sighed inwardly, then focused on the present, refuting the Fairy Girl's statement. "But this threat has nothing to do with us, who are stuck on the other side of the world!"

The Fairy Girl said fiercely:

"You are all human beings, don't think you can escape responsibility!"

Linsey countered from a different angle:

"And what about the world?"

"The advancement of Dragon Beast is persecuting the entire world and countless innocent lives."

"Could they be the culprits too?"

Linsey's question seemed to hit the Fairy Girl's sore spot.

She widened her beautiful eyes, and emotion welled up in her bright pupils. "What do you know!"

"It wasn't like this before, my love..."

This moment.

The Fairy Girl's figure suddenly became blurry, a red light flashed on her shoulder, the illusion even began to shake, and the darkness of reality even blurred before their eyes.

In that instant, Linsey seized a glimmer of hope.

He used his only chance to switch the [Magma Crest] in his hand.

Just seconds later, the Fairy Girl's shrill roar rang out:

"Despicable human, you're stalling for time!"
