What's the point of you still going to school?!
"Since I Cici get the lowest score in exams anyway, I might as well go out and get a job to ease the burden on my family!"
"You really don't think about your family at all! Why don't you learn from your brother!"
"Oh... I see..."
I don't like school anyway, so if I go out to work, at least I won't get beaten up by the school thugs...
[Transfer 5000 yuan.]
I haven't received my salary yet...
[hurry up.]
The phone's messaging app will only ever show these few conversations.
WeChat seems to be not a communication software, but a bottomless pit that only sucks money away.
Even if Aidan could only live in the factory and eat boiled noodles once a day, that bottomless pit would still never be filled.
Black...
For Aidan, the whole world was black.
Perhaps the only color he possessed was the color of the game he played before preparing to commit suicide.
It was from that time that Aidan became addicted to games.
The game is really good; the characters won't force you to give them money, nor will they yell at you to vent their emotions.
They might even care about Aidan's thoughts, treat Aidan as a friend, and be willing to listen to his ideas.
Without realizing it, Aidan awakened her supernatural abilities.
Using her abilities, Aidan rebelled against her family for the first time.
He crossed the ocean alone and arrived in United States.
Actually, this place is just like the previous one; it's a pile of shit.
There are just fewer blood-sucking flies here.
He can earn enough to make a living by playing games for others every day.
Aidan dislikes having the lights on at home because, in his eyes, the world is the same whether the lights are on or off.
It was all pitch black, so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.
I felt like a rat eking out a living in a dark sewer, eating scraps from the bustling world, clinging to a glimmer of light called 'game,' just barely surviving.
As those dark memories flashed by in the revolving lantern, the disappearing pixels seemed to move even faster.
"Never mind..."
The panicked heart slowly relaxed, and the will to survive rapidly diminished.
Looking back on my entire life, I realize it was nothing more than a miserable existence in the sewers, completely disconnected from the real world.
Even if I die, no one will care.
Nobody needs it...
Suddenly, the image of Helana's fair and petite figure flashed through my mind.
"Do you want to be my little brother?"
The girl, who was pure and innocent both inside and out, entered the dark sewer.
In my name, I led that rat out of the sewer and let it bask in the sunlight.
"Boss..."
It was that girl, who could not be called human, who told Aidan that he was not a useless mouse, but a tiger who could help the boss.
It was Hela who connected Aidan, who was previously completely isolated from society, with the rest of the world.
It was Hela who made Aidan realize that she had a friend who wouldn't bully her and would even speak up for her.
It was Hela who made Aidan realize that she was human, that she was strong, and that she could live a meaningful life!
As he gradually regained consciousness, Hela's voice echoed once more.
Will we win?
His consciousness returned completely, and the determination in his heart was stronger than ever before!
"We will win... we will definitely win!!!"
Half of his body gradually dissipated, with only his right hand twitching slightly.
The next second, he suddenly grabbed the pixelated heart in front of him, which had been cut in half.
His thin hands burst forth with immense power.
The two broken pixelated hearts are being forcibly pieced back together by brute force.
While being comforted by Su Yiyao patting her head, Lü Mengmeng's gaze inadvertently drifted into Aidan.
His eyes, hidden behind his glasses, widened instantly, filled with terror.
"That person isn't dead!!!"
Immediately, everyone stopped what they were doing and hurriedly looked at Aidan.
As if summoned, the numerous pixel fragments that had dissipated in the air emerged from the void and surrounded Aidan, who was now only half-dead and whose right hand was tightly gripping a pixelated heart.
A chill ran down everyone's spine, and their eyes widened as if they had seen a ghost.
Lü Batian was the first to react, and with unstoppable force, he hurled his halberd at Aidan.
At the same time, he suddenly swung his hands to the sides, and more than a dozen sharp slashes broke through the air, followed by the halberd slashing towards the opponent.
Su Yiyao also gave it her all.
↡↡↡
Three powerful downward arrows emerged from his chest, and a repulsive force like falling meteorites surged towards Aidan.
[ Iron Armor Beast ] quickly grabbed Lü Weitian and Lü Mengmeng, and its massive body leaped backward to create distance.
Thump--!!!
The couple landed together with a powerful attack.
The immense repulsive force and slashing impact left a massive, semi-circular crater riddled with cuts at the point of attack.
But there, only a halberd lay there all alone.
A bead of cold sweat slid down their ghostly cheeks.
An unharmed young man, wielding a pixelated knife, appeared before the crowd as the surrounding pixelation dissipated.
Aidan stood not far in front of the giant crater.
Strands of hair brushed against his indifferent eyes, and he slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, his entire demeanor undergoing a dramatic transformation.
His hand, covered in blue veins, trembled slightly, but was grasped by Lü Batian's other hand.
He was actually afraid...
"Why isn't he dead...?" Su Yiyao stared at Aidan in disbelief.
She sensed an unfamiliar aura emanating from the other person, an aura she had never seen before.
"Has this broken through to a higher realm? But... beyond the Human Limit combat power, could there be something else...?"
Lü Batian's gaze swept around Aidan, only to be surprised to find that the pixelated heart that was originally Aikadun's weakness had disappeared.
As if sensing the other party's doubt, Aidan slowly raised her hand.
The next second, everyone was struck dumb.
Seven pixelated hearts of different colors rose up from behind Aidan, surrounding him like a halo of a god.
Two Gaster Blaster appeared in the void.
The two orange and yellow hearts behind it are like magnets embedded in the surface of the Gaster Blaster.
The eyes of the two Gaster Blaster suddenly radiated a spiritual light.
One yellow and one orange beam of light shot out!
↔
Two arrows appeared, one to the left and one to the right, and Lü Batian and Su Yiyao dodged to the sides under the force of repulsion.
Two huge trenches were pierced by the beam of light on the steel ground.
Aidan's eyes were filled with determination, and a dozen pixelated spears appeared around the purple heart.
With a flick of the fingertip, a dozen pixelated spears, dyed purple, shot towards the two of them.
Su Yiyao continued to use her power to dodge attacks.
With nowhere to dodge, Lü Batian withdrew his halberd and began to swing and spin it in front of him to block the oncoming spears.
Sparks flew as spears clashed crisply with the spinning halberd, yet one spear still managed to get right in through a gap in the defense.
Lü Batian dodged to the side with all his might, the purple spear just grazing past him.
puff!
But with just a brush of shoulders, the purple spear pierced a large hole through the solid shoulder.
