Chapter 399 Absolute Control Scepter

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

While Xie Feng and Shen Xinya delved into the strange pink atmosphere that enveloped them and looked at each other with loving eyes, the other girls present could only watch the situation with consternated expressions and not knowing what to do.

Should they interrupt? But it wouldn't be very good if they did that, would it?

Just when they were in a dilemma not knowing what to do about it, someone else unexpectedly interrupted.

Little Shui Wuhen stepped forward and held on to Xie Feng's arm tightly as she looked at the newcomers cautiously. Using her extremely soft and gentle voice, she asked, "Big brother Xie Feng, who are these people?"

After Xie Feng explained to Shui Wuhen the difference between players coming from another world and NPCs residing in this world, the little girl finally understood the reason why the people on the other side of his communication tool referred to him as 'Xie Feng' instead of calling him Shiva.

After understanding that 'Xie Feng' was his real name and 'Shiva' was his virtual name, little Shui Wuhen asked him if it was okay for her to call him by his real name as well. Xie Feng agreed immediately, however, he warned her that except for the people who would be arriving soon, she could not use that name in front of anyone else.

Stepping out of the fluffy and loving atmosphere, Xie Feng took Shui Wuhen's little hand and with a smile explained: "Little Wuhen, do you remember big brother told you earlier that you had actually helped me a lot already? Well, let me introduce you to these people."

Seeing the confused and cautious look on the little girl's face beside him, Xie Feng began to explain certain things and changing others slightly. Because he did not want to overwhelm the minds of his beloved ones, Xie Feng simply did not tell them about how strange this world was.

Perhaps it was selfish of him, but he was only acting on his own beliefs and it was clear to him that sometimes telling everything clearly was not the best option. What did he have to gain by telling them that in reality, Samsara Online was not as simple a game as it seemed? It would only torment and confuse them more. After all, they couldn't help him much and they would just feel guiltier knowing that he had been carrying such a heavy burden all this time silently.

Therefore, Xie Feng said nothing. At least for now.

...

...

After Shui Wuhen met the girls and learned of her close relationship with Xie Feng, the little girl was no longer so cautious against them. However, she still stayed close to him as if she wasn't about to stray too far away and obviously her real confidence was only his.

But this was also normal, after all, Xie Feng had saved Shui Wuhen's life. She had heard from her mother that he had agreed to help without expecting to receive anything in return; even deviating from his original course and facing unnecessary dangers just to help a family he didn't know and had nothing to do with him.

The girls also soon sympathized with the mother-daughter duo's situation and when they learned that Xie Feng intended to take them to their mansion in the virtual world, none of them had any objections and immediately accepted the idea with smiles.

Xie Feng was confused as Han Xue Nai was not with them. However, Xie Yao soon explained that the girl seemed a little sleepy so she went into her room in the mansion and fell asleep there directly.

When he heard this he did not know whether he should laugh or cry.

In fact, sleeping in Samsara Online was exactly the same as falling asleep in the real world. While the brain was working harder when the player was awake and being online supplanted 70% of the sleep, if he or she fell asleep that 70% immediately became 100%.

Basically, what Han Xue Nai was doing was no different than falling asleep in the real world. Only Xie Feng didn't know why that girl hadn't simply logged off.

"Xinya, what happened to your appearance? Why did you change?"

After everyone sat comfortably on the grass and the introductions were over, Xie Feng couldn't help but look at the beautiful woman beside him and ask something that intrigued him.

"About that..." Shen Xinya took a moment to think about her words before slowly explaining, "The first time I logged into Samsara Online, right after creating my character, I was sent to Beginner Village number 666 and-"

"Wait, wait!" Just as she wanted to continue, Xie Feng quickly stopped her and looked at her with wide eyes as he said with a hint of disbelief, "Beginner's Village number 666? Are you sure?"

Shen Xinya looked at him in confusion but still, she nodded, expressing that it really was so.

Getting her confirmation, Xie Feng couldn't help but gasp slightly as he said, "What a coincidence... I was also sent to the Beginner's Village 666 back then."

When the girls heard his words, they were surprised. However, Shen Xinya simply smiled beautifully and pointed out, "There is no coincidence in this world. Everything is destined. The fact that you and I underwent changes in our appearance as well as the fact that you and I were sent to the same Beginner Village, everything was destined from the beginning."

Hearing her words, Xie Feng simply remained silent immersed in his own thoughts. To be honest, he didn't like the word destiny too much as it felt as if an invisible thread was controlling him like a puppeteer to its puppet.

However, it was undeniable that Shen Xinya's words made a lot of sense. Considering that there were 99,999 Beginner Villages, the chances of him and her being sent to it were practically one in a hundred thousand; such low odds were even more difficult than winning the lottery.

"Please continue." Xie Feng decided to stop thinking about destiny temporarily. If there really was a thread that moved things in secret, that meant he just needed to be stronger than the puppeteer to stop being the puppet.

Shen Xinya nodded and continued, "After arriving at Beginner Village number 666, the first thing I did was what probably most players did at the time, open my inventory... However, to my surprise, apart from a normal magic wand, there was also a beautiful scepter there."

Xie Feng and the girls couldn't help but think of that beautiful silver scepter with small golden runes that they saw when Kali appeared in the defensive battle of Eminentis City. She used that mysterious scepter while casting terrifying and unknown magic spells to control the movements of the Immortal beast, buying precious time for everyone. If not for her, the Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon would have undoubtedly been able to break through the city gates and not even Xie Feng could have stopped it.

As if to confirm everyone's thoughts, Shen Xinya, took out that beautiful majestic looking scepter from her inventory and explained, "It is this scepter. Its name is Absolute Control Scepter."

As they looked at the Absolute Control Scepter, everyone could feel a kind of strange power surrounding the weapon. This power was gentle and soft, like the sea breeze in spring without any evil or heavy power in any way.

"The Absolute Control Scepter has many powerful incantations and spells, but I can only use a few of them." Shen Xinya forced a smile. "Besides, this weapon is to blame for my current appearance."

Xie Feng finally understood. However, the more he listened to Shen Xinya's narrative, the more he was surprised by how extremely similar her experiences were in comparison to his own. Although the path was different and there were some different things, the end result was practically the same.

She obtained the Absolute Control Scepter in a mysterious way, and Xie Feng also obtained the Ring of the God of Destruction without warning, and even now it was a mystery to him what the real reason was.

As if all this were not enough, Shen Xinya's Absolute Control Scepter and Xie Feng's Ring of the God of Destruction were both weapons that were not only extremely powerful with terrifying spells, but also forcibly changed the appearance of the user.
