Chapter 311: Chapter 300: The Hero Who Must Become a Hero (3rd Update!) Chapter 311: Chapter 300: The Hero Who Must Become a Hero (3rd Update!) “If it had been me from before, I would have definitely wanted to attack Biland Island, for the Divine Fragment was of utmost importance to me, but now…” Hai Lan glanced at Jiang Qiao’s Fureya, who was looking down at her knees.

It seemed this puppet girl was… afraid because she got caught by Hai Lan holding hands with Jiang Qiao earlier?

It kind of felt like the fear of being caught dating by one’s own mother at an early age.

“Jiang Qiao, if you announce this punishment, all the players across the server will blow up, won’t they?” Hai Lan had learned enough from Jiang Qiao to become a qualified game planner.

She knew that players no longer saw Fureya as just a pretty NPC who spoke nicely, like during the first Divine Battle.

Having spent so much time with Fureya, Hai Lan thought that now the comments on the forums jokingly calling Fureya ‘my dear wife’… very few people meant them as a joke anymore.

Even if she wasn’t seen as a wife, more and more players were starting to see Fureya as family.

Whether it’s a sister or a daughter, she is an important and irreplaceable family member.

“It won’t blow up,” Jiang Qiao said.

At this stage, players must destroy Biland Island; otherwise, not only could Biland Island be destroyed, but also the real world where Jiang Qiao resides!

When Jiang Qiao first created Fureya, it was to spur players to become stronger, to use any means necessary, whether grinding or spending money.

In this Biland Island campaign, Fureya should have been that kind of ‘say you love him and make him spend another hundred thousand!’ tool NPC.

But players already regarded Fureya as family, and so did Jiang Qiao…

“The conclusion is the campaign against Biland Island continues, and the death penalty still has to be announced.”

Jiang Qiao ultimately made this decision, hiding the death penalty would only make things worse.

Perhaps… players could even accept Fureya’s death from exhaustion during the first Divine Battle as a form of punishment, losing a bit of memory…

“Could we provide players with a mechanic to teleport back to the instance world of the Holy Spirit before their health points reach zero?” Jiang Qiao suddenly thought of this mechanism.

However, this suggestion was met with a shake of the head from Fureya’s first model.

“As the life force of the Holy Spirits begins to ebb away, their memories of Fureya start to fade along with their health points, diminishing minute by minute. If it’s within an hour, I could repair it, but… If too much memory is lost, there’s nothing I can do.”

“This isn’t your problem, the enemy is just too cunning.”

“What about backing up all memories of Fureya?” Hai Lan proposed what seemed like a not very practical idea.

“Fureya has new memories every second, are you going to back up each and every one of them?”

And… do backed-up memories count as real memories?

Jiang Qiao didn’t bring up such pesky issues, mainly because it was a massive amount of work. If he were to use a brute force approach, Jiang Qiao could back up the memories of 130,000 Fureyas in creator mode.

But this kind of backup was in itself harmful to Fureya’s consciousness.

The Devouring God’s Divine nature was destined from birth to be incapable of doing too meticulous work, and that was also Hai Lan’s weakness.

“But I will set up a backup plan,” Jiang Qiao said as he took out a glass bead, “The moment a player dies in battle, this thing will copy a snippet of the information contained in the Creation Energy devoured by the chaos.”

“What’s this?” Hai Lan took the glass bead from Jiang Qiao’s hand, which looked like an ordinary glass bead no matter how you looked at it.

“It’s nothing yet, because I haven’t started creating it, but this function must be implemented. Players can read Fureya’s lost memories through the copied information and play them out through projected videos,” Jiang Qiao said.

Hai Lan didn’t ask why this ability wasn’t used to directly implant the memories into Fureya herself. The player energy devoured by the chaos, once slain by players, was snatched back by their very hands, and everything would return to normal.

If the two sets of memories clashed, then the trouble would be more than significant.

“Should we post this death penalty on the official website announcement?” Hai Lan asked.

“Let’s have the Fureyas tell the players themselves.”

Jiang Qiao did not plan to inform players of this death penalty through an official announcement.

Because… Jiang Qiao simply couldn’t draft such an announcement, and if it was announced on the official website, it would give off the feeling that the dog planner is screwing with our mindset using Fureya again, and reveling in it.

If Fureya personally informed them, it might lessen the impact of this aspect.

Though the difference was not significant.

“Actually, even if players don’t go to the Black Tide Island, you could find reasons to allow the Fureyas to move freely, couldn’t you?” Hai Lan suddenly asked at this moment.

“And then after Black Tide Island devours Biland Island, it continues to devour Blue Star?”

“…”

Jiang Qiao knew that he had become embroiled in a war, a war for his own survival, a war involving all sorts of strange factions on the star chart. Although Holy Spirit is a game, it also pertains to the life and death of the real world.

However, Jiang Qiao didn’t want players to shoulder such a heavy burden, but they had no choice but to take on this responsibility, even though the players didn’t feel it yet.

There was that kind of… a hero who had no choice but to become a hero feeling.

“Pass this on to your sisters… in a more gentle manner,” Jiang Qiao said to his Fureya.

Jiang Qiao’s Fureya nodded slightly, then she slowly closed her eyes. Half an hour later, Jiang Qiao’s Fureya finally reopened her eyes.

In her gaze, Jiang Qiao could see a tired expression, obviously, continuous communication with thirteen of her kin was an exhausting task.

Even if her computational and learning abilities were the strongest among all Fureyas.

“Holy Spirit, will you also take to the frontline?” Jiang Qiao’s Fureya asked, looking at him with tired eyes.

“Maybe, but my ability to slack off is amazing. I haven’t died much since starting to play this game, and it’s the same for any instance, so please be assured.”

Jiang Qiao knew what his Fureya was worried about, but instead of feeling reassured by Jiang Qiao’s comforting words, his Fureya fell into confusion.

Because on Biland Island, the Fureyas with their own consciousness and personalities were mostly well cared for by the Holy Spirits and even taken to the real world to play several times.

But Jiang Qiao’s Fureya had hardly interacted with Jiang Qiao, let alone been taken out to play by him.

“Once we settle the issue of Black Tide Island and the inner world is well constructed, I will take you to a place called amusement park,” Jiang Qiao said, noticing the reason for his Fureya’s confusion and making a promise like a boss trying to motivate his employee.

There’s currently no amusement park map in the inner world. Players have been calling on the dog planner to copy a real amusement park into the inner world, but when Jiang Qiao saw this suggestion, Black Tide Island had already emerged, so he temporarily had no energy to manage related affairs in the inner world.

However, Jiang Qiao still planned to replicate various famous real-world locations into the inner world, with an amusement park being a must.

“Holy Spirit, although I do not know what you are talking about, I will wait…” Fureya said in a voice only Jiang Qiao could hear.
