My portable gaming girlfriend

The seventh day of contact with the new piece of information.

After working in the cafe for a day, we logged into the game again and gathered in Maple City.

Three days had passed since defeating Kui.

Since Veramia insisted on not wanting the core after that defeat, it was used to make the weapon Ye Yin is good at [Kui·Sword Shield]——

This is naturally because everyone agrees that Ye Yin contributed the most in team battles.

Villamia drifted away after the battle. What a strange person, no matter which game players help others for free, there are always a minority...

"This year's luxury airship auction has started, let's go and have a look."

As soon as she entered the game, Shen Qing dragged us to participate in an event that sounded very expensive...

"auction?"

I counted that I still had less than 10,000 gold dollars on me, and I'm afraid I can't afford anything.

"This kind of auction is only held once a year. You only need to spend 500 gold coins to participate. In addition to game point trading, there are also gold dollar trading products. You can at least buy some life fireworks at a cheaper price than the market price."

Shen Qing seemed to see my concerns. I heard that there are life fireworks, so I am a little interested in taking a look...

We came to the Alien Beast Countermeasure Camp, where many people have already gathered waiting to board the ship. Above the sky, a huge luxury airship hovered directly above, casting a shadow.

We took a small airship and boarded the luxury airship. Compared with the last time, there were many more people this time. In addition to the official sale of special props, many players are also auctioning their own items.

"Stalker, 2500 game points."

This is an official buy it now item.

"Auctioning life fireworks, 60 gold dollars!"

This is an item auctioned by the player himself, and it is indeed cheaper than the market price.

Because the number of auctions was too large, I finally bought 10 life fireworks at a price of 63 gold dollars.

"Confession fireworks, 233 gold dollars!"

This is a firework that emits a heart-shaped firework without any recovery effect, but it is being auctioned at a starting price several times that of a life firework. There are still many people chasing the price increase. I can't help but sigh how much players' consumption concepts have changed in recent years. .

After watching some useless consumables and accessories auctions, the largest auction on the ship finally ushered in the weapons session, but they were all traded with game points. I came here just to see the excitement.

"[Fengwei] Qin, 100,000 game points!"

Stunned by the price, I looked up and saw the auction item.

It is a lyre named [Phoenix Tail] decorated with the tail feathers of a divine bird. It is an upgraded version of [Phoenix·Qin] made from one of the story missions of the expansion piece, 'Nine Phoenix', which is defeated. Metal The textured colorful tail feathers exude colorful light, even as an ornament, it is quite collectible.

A few days after the game server was launched, someone actually made this violin and auctioned it with game points as the transaction currency. It is understandable that the price is so high.

"—This piano contains the divine power of the nine-headed divine bird, and the strings imply the attack of fire, and also conceal the miracle of infinite vitality."

The starting price of 100,000 points is not very high, but it is only the starting price of the auction. There are many rich players bidding in the game, and there are also professional entrusted bidders. The final transaction price has been raised to 180,000 game points. Of course, if you trade with game points, you can directly get the ability Currency equivalent to real money, but the game will charge a 10% transaction fee.

"[Fengqi] sword, 120,000 game points!"

Another tempered weapon! This sword is a one-handed sword, with objective attack power but it will not affect the player's actions, so the starting price is naturally much higher than that of the same series of lyres, and its appearance is as beautiful as the [Fengwei] harp.

Even when the auctioneer swung the sword in the air, the blade left a gradient orange-red afterimage.

"125,000 game points."

After the price was quoted for the first time, there was chaos on the field, and the price continued to rise, but there was a female voice that never gave up. In the end, this woman also took this weapon with 205,000 game points...

I have no time to calculate how many years I can eat and drink after so many game points are exchanged for living expenses. I just want to take a look at the appearance of that female local tyrant.

When I walked around to the side of the crowd and wanted to see the real face, I was surprised to find that the girl who took the sword turned out to be the Red Queen? !

——After thinking about it for a while, she is quite normal. In the last dispute, I discovered that the weapon she was carrying was a sword. This [Feng Qi] is the top weapon of her series of weapons, and its gorgeous appearance suits her dressing style.

Although the auction price seemed sky-high to me, it probably wasn't worth mentioning to her.

Of course I don't want to have anything to do with her anymore.

However, the moment I turned to leave, I saw her talking to someone.

A man wearing a smiley mask and a hooded coat.

Although it is not exactly the same as in "Snow Eagle", this style makes me think of only one person.

Nameless...!

He is not only a top 10 player in the "Scramble Arena", but also a very dangerous awakened AI.

At the end of the "Snowfield Eagle" game, he trapped Yugiri and me in the game at the same time. If it weren't for the programmer's timely rescue, we would all get lost in the game world...

Several guesses flashed through my mind, did I misidentify the masked man? Or is the Red Queen also an awakened AI? Was her property conjured by cheating?

I immediately contacted the 'programmer' and asked him to find out if that was the 'person' I suspected...

[Programmer: I don't have time to check the details right now, but there is indeed an awakened AI in the space you are in. 】

[Me: Then...can you create a 'door' now? 】

[Programmer: It only takes 1 minute of game time, but you have to lead the awakened AI to a hidden place, and I will open the door there, otherwise the impact will be too great. 】

【Me: Well, just leave it to me. 】

[Programmer: You seem very confident? 】

[Me: I will follow him to observe for a while, if he is indeed the nameless person, I just have a debt to settle with him...]

[Programmer: No problem, you can chat with me privately at the location you choose. 】

Just like the style of the "programmer", the conversation ended without any encouragement or repetition.

Although the rhetoric has been released, it is not easy to 'catch' the TOP10 in the arena.

If it's really the awakened AI of the Nameless One, maybe he still has the ability to cheat that I don't know about. And the only thought I have is - this is a large-scale online game with a large number of players, so he shouldn't be able to cheat easily?

My eyes are fixed on the masked man, he has turned around and is about to leave, it's time to catch up... Wait, what's the situation?

The arrogant lady Red Queen actually followed? Still shyly walking side by side with the masked man?

And... still very intimate 'trying' to be tripped up on him? ? ?

The reason for using 'trying' is that the masked man easily dodged her body and at the same time supported her in a very gentlemanly manner. It has to be said that the posture is very elegant.

However, when he was supporting the Red Queen, it seemed that for a second the mask was facing me——

I immediately hid behind the pedestrian, and my heart beat a little faster due to nervousness. Will it be discovered? After all, it is likely to be an awakened AI, even if it has abnormal observation skills.

But I had to follow him to know the truth.

The masked man helped the Red Queen up, and the two walked towards the bow of the ship.

There are too many passers-by. Although the advantage is that it can cover my figure, there is also a disadvantage, that is, if I am not careful, I will follow the man who lost the mask.

So I quickened my pace a little to keep up with them.

a little earlier.

Zhuge Juan heard that the annual auction would be held on a luxury airship, but with only 6,000 gold dollars on his body, he was a little hesitant whether it was worth spending one-twelfth of a gold dollar as a ticket to attend.

When he saw that person, all doubts disappeared like smoke.

That was someone he couldn't forget, with golden double ponytails, a shy expression that appeared from time to time, and a weak and beautiful body, no one could think that it was a boy.

'Tianhai Liyin, no, Ye Yin...I must let you know my heart! '

Zhuge Juan clenched his fist secretly, and followed him onto the airship without hesitation.

During this period of time, his smart companion showed him a lot of miserable love stories with 'disparities in identities', the noble lady and the commoner boy, the domineering president and the intern girl, but none of them touched him.

‘These situations are completely different from mine, aren’t they? Oops~ This holographic wife is so cute, licked it! '

‘It’s not a question of status. In fact, the relationship you want is not true love, and it has nothing to do with transcending gender. It’s just the pursuit of a beautiful appearance. '

His artificial intelligence companion commented after turning on the psychoanalysis mode.

right! That's right, that's what he thought! What does it matter if cute is a boy? Anyway, he still has a lot of holographic wives that he can't even touch.

Ye Yin was still teaming up with the two beautiful girl teammates and the unsightly boy, and Zhuge Juan tried his best not to lose them in the crowd.

Soon the people on the opposite side separated and went to different auction houses. Zhuge Juan secretly thought that the opportunity had come, and stepped forward to follow Ye Yin.

Ye Yin walked around but only looked at the products without taking any pictures. At this moment, Zhuge Juan approached and stopped him.

"God...Ye Yin!"

"Eh?"

Ye Yin turned around and looked at the player who called her real name in surprise.

"Who are you……"

"The ID name is Zhuge Juan. I have something to tell you this time."

"Ah... I can't recognize you with clothes on, sorry!"

"Ahem..."

"What a passer-by face I really have" - ​​Zhuge Juan complained inwardly.

"What do you find me for?"

"Yes, of course I have something to tell you! Please listen carefully!"

"Please...please say..."

Ye Yin seemed to be intimidated by his momentum, and took a half step back a little later.

"I like you, even if you are a boy, it doesn't matter!"

"ah?"

"Didn't that man say that? You're a boy... It's sad, but you look so cute, so I figured it out, it doesn't matter if you're a boy."

"I do not quite understand……"

"...Please make a couple with me in the virtual world!"

All the muscles in Zhuge Juan's body were tense, waiting for the other party's response.

"...But, how can I say this kind of thing... Anyway, I'm very sorry! I can't accept it!"

Ye Yin's words made him feel as if he had fallen from a height of 100 meters into the ice sea of ​​the North Pole. He didn't know whether his whole body was in severe pain because of the beating of the water or the stimulation of the cold.

"Why……!"

"This...although it's more at ease to dress up like this, but I...have no such interest...!"

"Not interested? Don't worry? But there are no boys dressed like you!"

"……is it not OK?"

"Dress like a girl! She looks cute! Why are you a boy! Why are you not interested in boys!"

Zhuge Juan roared hoarsely, although there were few people around, he still attracted the attention of several players in the distance.

Looking at the smiling expressions of several players, it is estimated that they are saying 'Look at that [beep] who failed to confess', and Ye Yin also turned her head away in distress because of being watched... All this made Zhuge Juan even more collapse.

"...To put it bluntly, at the beginning, this kind of dress was just for the convenience of attracting customers for my eldest brother, but now it has indeed become my interest. As long as I don't tell others, people won't know that I am a boy, and it won't be disgusting, right?"

"But this is... too shameful! Real men are not like this at all!"

"You have no right to judge me like that!"

Ye Yin was also rarely angry, and raised his voice slightly to refute Zhuge Juan.

"...Yes, I have no right."

Zhuge Juan's expression was gloomy after a few seconds of silence.

"——I followed you to this airship, in fact, I just wanted to say those few words to you. Now I know, even if a coward like me, cowardly, wants to change himself desperately, I tried my best to 'create courage', but it still failed. I'm sorry, I've been too depressed recently, I just want to say my words, next time I will ask whether the other party is a man, goodbye."

The dream-broken boy who failed to confess, turned and left seemingly without hesitation.

"Why is this again... Did I do something wrong again? Brother..."

Ye Yin looked at his back silently.

later.

The purple-haired boy——Julian walked aimlessly on this luxurious airship full of people, suppressing his anger caused by the chaotic environment.

Ever since he was forced to leave the game by a young man for no reason, his anger has never been appeased, and he has been hunting and killing any high-level monsters he sees on Penglai Island for the rest of the time.

Until the other day he was angry at his own powerlessness - not being able to resist the Nameless, being provoked by weak guys like the Red Queen and Omega Infinity... and that guy 'qwer1234'.

At some point, he felt that someone was staring at him.

Julian pretended to circle around the crowd a few times. That person never gave up. Could it be a vengeance seeker? If it was understandable in the world I used to be, but since I came here, I have been strictly forbidden by the unknown to make random shots, there should be no enemies.

The only 'person' I can think of is that little guy, Omega Infinity.

'If it's you, don't blame me for finding a reason to educate you! '

Thinking of this, Julian became interested.

He pretended not to turn around the corner of the wooden house in front of him, and hid behind him, waiting for the stalker to find himself chasing him. After he hurriedly followed him, he stretched out his hand and grabbed the man's clothes and pushed him against the wall. Pointing the claw at his neck—

"You... who are you?"

The caught boy had dead fish eyes, and was terrified by Julian's sudden action. He was still in shock, and the corners of his mouth were about to drop to his chin.

It is the expression of the weak that Julian hates the most.

"No, it's not...you misunderstood, misunderstood!"

The fish-eyed kid stammered in denial.

'[Beep]'s... is another [beep] who can't be weaker. '

Julian threw him on the ground, turned around and wanted to leave.

"May I ask..."

The boy with dead fish eyes said weakly.

"Are you male...or female?"

"..."

Julian stopped and looked sideways at him.

The nameless man is still here, of course no matter where he is, as long as he makes a move against ordinary players, he will be discovered by him——

'Less troubles' - the 'advice' of the nameless man had to listen to him, thinking of this made him have the urge to kill.

"I'm a man."

He suppressed his anger and warned the other party, now he just wants to get out of here quickly...

"It's a man...why is it a man again!"

Julian listened to his growl without saying a word.

The dead fish-eyed boy couldn't help complaining to the air, only to realize that he seemed to have said something that offended the other party, and the other party was obviously angry when he kept silent, so he quickly apologized——

"I'm sorry, I'm so excited! My name is [Zhuge Juan], of course it's not called this in reality...it's just a relatively common name, don't worry about that, you can just call me ID. The main reason is that you are better than girls...In short I accidentally made a mistake! I'm sorry..."

Zhuge Juan didn't seem to be affected by the experience he suffered from Ye Yin just now, and was still full of 'courage'.

But 'having courage' is not always beneficial...

"Do you really want to apologize...?"

Julian asked in a low voice.

"Yes, yes!"

"Then... how about you resist me with the weapon in your hand full of hope, and then I fuck you until you lose your ability to resist, and let me kill you in despair. How about repeating this a hundred times?"

"Eh……?"

Zhuge Juan was stunned.

"You also admit that you want to apologize seriously, right? Since you are apologizing, just do it until I completely eliminate my anger, otherwise it is not serious!"

"But... you mean fighting? I don't mean to fight you at all..."

"Hahaha... What a cowardly and useless guy... Even flying insects are more courageous than you."

"No... I really don't want to fight here, I don't even open the PVP mode."

Zhuge Juan hastily defended himself.

"Fight? You think too highly of yourself, and what follows is just my unilateral massacre...!"

Julian swung his giant axe!

At this time, the distance between the two was less than two meters, and Zhuge Juan hurriedly lowered his head to avoid it. The tip of the giant ax almost cut through the top of his head and embedded itself in the wooden wall behind him!

"are you crazy?"

Even in the game, even if he did not open the PVP mode, Zhuge Juan was still terrified by the sudden attack!

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Julian drew his great axe.

"Even if you don't use PVP mode, you won't be injured or killed by me, and you won't be knocked into the air...but you will still be forced to move 'slightly' until you fall from this airship. At that time, you think you will go Where? Or, where will you be resurrected?"

"You...do you think I'll sit and wait to die?"

Zhuge Juan's face turned blue and red. On the one hand, he was frightened, and on the other hand, because everything went wrong today, he finally couldn't help being angry.

"Look over here, someone is fighting!"

Because of the movement just now, more and more players gathered around——

"Real fight or fake fight, is the PVP mode on?"

"It must not be in PVP mode, otherwise you think the NPC on the airship is a vegetarian? Isn't this going to stop it?"

"What's the point of playing without PVP mode, open PVP!"

As the saying goes, it’s not a big deal to watch the excitement, and more and more people began to persuade them to come to a real PVP.

"Don't open the PVP mode to fight here, you will be banned."

There are also players who can't bear to watch them get banned.

"Ah……"

Julian didn't know whether he was laughing at Zhuge Juan or the crowd watching.

"Are you ready? Anyway, you will die 100 times, can you quickly open the PVP mode?"

"You...all just look down on me..."

Zhuge Juan muttered to himself while supporting himself to stand up.

"I rank 3179 in the Brawl Arena, ranking in the second echelon. Why do you look down on me?"

"Ha, finally have a little fighting spirit? I don't know how powerful the 3179th is in the Brawl Arena, but it sounds like the weak are using boring names to boost their courage."

"Don't think that you are great because you are melee. I can still blow you up with this crossbow."

Zhuge Juan pulled out the black and red crossbow on his back and pointed it at Julian.

"Oh? Then try~"

Seeing the light red halo on the opponent's body that marked the opening of the PVP mode, Julian smiled with satisfaction.

However, there is no suspense in the battle between them.

The disadvantage of melee versus long-range and the gap in combat skills cannot be ignored. So in just one minute, Zhuge Juan was pushed to the edge of the airship by Julian, and the weapon was knocked off the ground.

"Hello player, please don't duel on the airship, so as not to accidentally injure other players..."

A female NPC in a short skirt, trying to stop Julian.

"do not bother me."

Julian dodged behind her, stretched out his hand and pushed the NPC out of the deck and fell? !

'Is this guy for real? Looking weak, do it if you say it? '

Zhuge Juan was shocked and wanted to take the opportunity to retrieve his weapon.

"If you still care about others, you are going to die!"

Yuri stepped on Zhuge Juan's hand with a ferocious smile on his face.

However--

He suddenly jumped back at a speed that the naked eye couldn't catch, and where he was standing a second ago, a long gun was inserted there and sank into the ground!

"Let him go!"

Julian turned his head to see who was interrupting his 'duel', but saw a 'girl' with golden twin tails scolding him...

"Glass sound!"

Zhuge Juan yelled the name of the 'girl' - the one who saved him was Ye Yin, who had failed in his 'confession'.

"Oh... But there is another one to die~ I really can't help it..."

The purple-haired boy lowered his expression and stared at the other party.

"Liyin, why did you come to save me...I just..."

Zhuge Juan felt his nose suddenly sore in reality, and he couldn't help saying so many exaggerated things to him, but he still...

"I can't just watch you get killed..."

Ye Yin responded helplessly.

At least here I am not the weak boy who can only be protected by his elder brother and senior sister...

He has been honing his skills in the game, and he is actually eager to prove it.

—and will certainly prove it.

"...Have you talked enough with this woman? All of them exude the sour smell of love, it's really disgusting!"

"in love?"

"woman?"

Zhuge Juan and Ye Yin responded to these two words respectively.

"Wait a minute, I'm not in a relationship with him, I was just dumped unilaterally..."

"I'm a boy...and I'm here only because I have problems with him becoming like this."

Compared with Zhuge Juan's loud rebuttal, Ye Yin only dared to answer in a very small voice, even so his words were still heard by people in a small area.

Suddenly there was a whisper of 'impossible' and 'women's big guy'.

"Hahahaha! Are you a man like you? Do men wear that kind of hair? Wear that kind of clothes?!"

After observing, Julian laughed at Ye Yin.

"But don't you also wear masculine armor? We should be about the same..."

"I'm a man, so what's wrong with wearing masculine armor?"

Julian was puzzled.

"Liyin, he's also a man..."

Zhuge Juan explained to Ye Yin weakly...

"Huh? But this appearance... No matter how you look at it, you look like a girl..."

Ye Yin covered her mouth and looked at Julian from head to toe in surprise, and then showed a clear expression——

"It turns out that you also have the talent of a fake mother..."

Immediately there was another whisper of 'impossible', 'women's big guy', and 'two cute puppet girls'.

"!!!... Lao Tzu, no, a fake mother!"

Finally being touched against the scale, Julian fell into berserk mode.

"Aha--!"

His half-human tall ax slashed at Ye Yin with lightning speed.

"——!"

While Ye Yin was astonished, he subconsciously reacted defensively, barely blocking the attack with his shield, and the huge impact made him retreat half a meter.

'This man has great strength! '

Ye Yin was secretly surprised. Julian didn't give him too much time to be surprised, and once again swung the huge ax to strike Ye Yin from top to bottom. Ye Yin let go of the shield and slid to the right to avoid it.
