Gray mist, endless gray mist, surged around Ning Yu.
Ning Yu was a bit confused. How did she end up in this dream again?
A swirling portal, resembling a whirlpool, emerged from the azure lake ahead.
The Moon Princess, with her silver hair and amber eyes, slowly stepped out from within.
"It seems you need a little help. I didn't expect it to come so soon..."
The Moon Princess took just a small step forward, yet it seemed as if she had instantly closed the distance, standing right in front of Ning Yu.
Her smooth, delicate little feet stepped onto the surface of the lake, standing level with Ning Yu.
It was only then that Ning Yu suddenly remembered—she had just been pierced through the heart by Zhuang Wugou's sword, leaving her with only one last life from her 【Death Resist】 ability.
And considering Zhuang Wugou's overpowered abilities, it seemed she could only run; otherwise, she might lose that last life as well.
"You're going to help me?"
Ning Yu looked doubtfully at the Moon Princess in front of her. She remembered the Moon Princess had once mentioned helping her at the right time, as they shared the same 'goal.'
"What do I have to pay in return?"
Hearing Ning Yu's question, the Moon Princess covered her mouth and giggled softly. In that moment, everything else paled in comparison, as if the world had been reduced to only that pure, flawless smile.
Ning Yu thought to herself, "Why can't I smile like that?"
"It's not that scary. I'm not a demon making a deal with you... though I suppose I do need to take something. You'll see."
The Moon Princess extended her dainty hand, on which a beautiful gray-white gemstone ring rested.
Ning Yu suddenly felt her body move uncontrollably, as if she were a devoted follower of a goddess, kneeling down and extending her hand to take the Moon Princess's hand.
"Wait... I haven't said yes or no yet..."
Ning Yu tried to speak, but couldn't. It felt as though her consent was no longer needed, and some kind of ritual had already begun.
Actually, Ning Yu really wanted to blurt out, "Why does this feel so much like proposing?"
The Moon Princess looked exactly like herself, so was this essentially herself proposing to herself?
The moment Ning Yu took the Moon Princess's hand, a swirling gray-white light orb appeared between them, rapidly expanding.
The center of the orb was pitch black, with countless gray-white lines twisting and being sucked into its core.
The mysterious gemstone ring in the Moon Princess's hand also emitted dazzling light. A silver, ancient-looking metal eye mask began to materialize around her eyes.
Slowly, the mask covered the Moon Princess's amber eyes, adorned with intricate feather and unknown bird patterns around her eyes.
At that moment, a strong gust of wind surged around the Moon Princess, causing the lake surface beneath her feet to ripple and her gown to flutter.
Her silver hair flowed backward, revealing her smooth forehead above the mask, which was adorned with a golden swirl pattern.
In this instant, her and Ning Yu's aura had become distinctly different.
Ning Yu, like a knight blessed by a goddess, extended her hand humbly to receive the blessing.
The Moon Princess, holding the seemingly divine light orb, granted it to her. With one hand over her chest and the other outstretched toward Ning Yu, the light orb flew toward Ning Yu's forehead and merged into her.
Ning Yu felt an unprecedented sense of clarity, as if someone had, in an instant, allowed her to comprehend all the truths of the world.
Everything seemed to become clear and simple, as if it were meant to be that way.
When she opened her eyes again, Ning Yu found herself back in reality. She was floating in the air, watching Shen Yiyue slowly lower her RPG.
"What was that person trying to do just now??"
【Prompt: Host has entered the Limitless Clear Moon Mode.】
【In this mode, the host will consume 100 points per second.】
【You have gained: Moon Princess Blessing *I Stage】
【Moon Princess Blessing *I Stage: +5 Physical Strength, +5 Mental Strength, +5 Charm】
【You have gained temporary skill: Mist Walk】
【Mist Walk: Allows you to move through the seams of the world using mist, gaining an incorporeal state for up to 3 seconds. When exiting the Mist Walk state, if you are attacked within 0.75 seconds, the Moon Time effect will trigger for 2 seconds.】
【Moon Time: Locks time around you and accelerates your thinking by a certain multiple.】
A series of prompts rang in Ning Yu's mind, but the one that caught her attention the most was: "Consumes 100 points per second."
"???"
"Moon Princess, explain what you mean by consuming 100 points per second. Are you here to rob me? Running this for 1 minute would cost 6000 points??"
And that Moon Princess Blessing, could we negotiate swapping the +5 Charm for something else? What do I need so much charm for in battle?
However, the temporary skill 【Mist Walk】 did catch Ning Yu's eye. It seemed incredibly overpowered, offering invincibility and movement, with the potential to trigger a time-stop effect under specific conditions.
Zhuang Wugou also sensed Ning Yu's new state and turned his head to stare at the floating Ning Yu.
The light around Ning Yu gradually dimmed, and she slowly descended to the ground.
"You can also resurrect after death?"
He raised his light sword and attacked Ning Yu, thinking the matter was simple—if Ning Yu could resurrect, he would just kill her as many times as necessary.
Ning Yu didn't seem to lift her Blood Kite to resist, allowing his light sword to strike her. She activated 【Mist Walk】 with a thought.
Gray-white mist immediately enveloped Ning Yu's body, making her appear ethereal and unreal.
Looking around, Ning Yu saw that the entire world had turned into a monochrome, with countless white lines crisscrossing—this must be the "seams of the world" mentioned in the 【Mist Walk】 skill description.
She moved along one of the seams, and in an instant, she was behind Zhuang Wugou.
Her body solidified again, and the world regained its original colors.
From Zhuang Wugou's perspective, Ning Yu's body had turned into a mist and dissipated the moment he struck her.
He immediately sensed Ning Yu's presence behind him and turned around to see her standing there.
Baffled, Zhuang Wugou realized Ning Yu's ability was beyond the realm of common sense.
Ning Yu smiled confidently. She already knew how to deal with Zhuang Wugou.
With a burst of speed, she charged forward, gripping Blood Kite with both hands, and slashed at Zhuang Wugou with a fierce strike!
Zhuang Wugou composed himself. The AI program in his armor rapidly calculated the best way to counter Ning Yu, and his light sword slashed upward at an angle.
He deflected Blood Kite and, with a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, struck again, slicing through Ning Yu's waist.
However, the expected scene of disembowelment didn't occur. Instead, Ning Yu turned into a mist once more, right in front of him.
