The Crazed Little Darling: Pampered by the Possesive Commander!-Chapter 210: I Don’t Want to Forget Lu Shinian
The surroundings suddenly darkened.
The world became pitch-black, without a sliver of light.
Su Ruan stood still, blankly staring into the darkness before her.
It felt abnormal.
Reason was reminding her, yet her body seemed to adapt to the darkness, even wanting to meld into it.
Her body became so light, she felt like she couldn’t find her own center of gravity.
She seemed to become her own spiritual power tendrils, drifting in the darkness, attempting to find a glimmer of light.
But she drifted for a very long time without finding a single ray of light, gradually seeming to forget many important things.
For instance, who she was, and why she was here.
Su Ruan drifted in some confusion, as her thoughts and consciousness were slowly drained away; she didn’t know how to think, nor did she feel inclined to anymore.
Memories were being extracted, merging with the boundless darkness.
Until, a name seemed to vanish from her mind...
Su Ruan felt a sharp pain emanating from somewhere in her body.
[No, don’t.]
Don’t take away that name.
Don’t let it be extracted from her life.
Her body seemed to tremble, shaking madly and intensely.
The sharp pain engulfed her entire body, as if a pair of giant hands tugged at her pain nerves.
Don’t take that name away.
This seemed to be the only thought left in her body.
But, what was that name?
Who was he?
Su Ruan blankly looked ahead, her body seemingly unable to drift.
She seemed to have become a void.
The feeling of pain slowly receded, or rather, she seemed to slowly vanish.
[Baby.]
A strange voice suddenly exploded in her mind.
Su Ruan’s eyes snapped open.
Lu Shinian!
That name is Lu Shinian!
A faint light emerged from the darkness, and Su Ruan raised her hand to catch that beam of light in her palm.
More and more threads of light drifted out. Her gaze sharpened, she rallied her spiritual power, captured the threads, and devoured them.
She still couldn’t remember her own name, nor why she was here.
But, she absolutely did not want to forget Lu Shinian.
The threads of light increased, and she devoured them at an accelerating pace.
She didn’t know how long it took, but after consuming the last thread of light, the memories surged in, filling her mind.
In the simulation, a pile of Military Tokens that had formed a small hill suddenly broke apart into ashes in full view.
With a breeze, the ashes scattered.
Only then did the combatants notice a member of the Insect Race nearby.
On the back of the Insect Race stood a young girl.
The girl wore a golden half-face mask, revealing a delicate chin and lips tinged with a hint of blood.
The wind lifted her red dress, revealing slender, creamy legs, her milk-white skin contrasting with the nearly garish red, exuding a nuanced and complex aura.
Though her figure was delicate, even weak, those eyes gleamed wickedly, like a bloodthirsty sword long clouded by dust, finally turning manic upon bloodshed, yet retaining a hint of restraint from the last shreds of humanity.
Under her feet was a mighty and inscrutable Insect Race creature.
Someone recognized it as a Nine Flame Crab, known only from textbooks.
Yet the mighty Nine Flame Crab willingly served as the girl’s mount, tendrils fluttering in the breeze seeming almost fawning and cautious.
The girl’s beauty was astonishing, yet it dissuaded even the slightest thoughts of offense.
All they wanted was to kneel down and bow to her authority.
Bodies rigid, even the air seemed frozen.
The surroundings silent and eerily still, even heartbeats were muffled.
With a "crack", something shattered...
The live stream abruptly ended, and the participating combatants were booted from the instance.
Some hurriedly reviewed the instance records, only to find a few more words at the end of the instance titled [Guisse]: Annihilated.
The Guisse instance, a name of exceptional beauty, personally created by Lu Shinian for the Military Academy League, was thus annihilated.
No one knew why, much like no one knew who the girl was.
Those ejected kept asking around about the girl’s identity but no one knew. Eventually, some speculated that the girl might be the final trial in the Military Academy League.
In simple terms, the girl could just be a virtual character, a string of data created by Lu Shinian.
After all, in reality, no one could step on a Nine Flame Crab and not be attacked.
In their futile search, they could only watch the last segment of the live stream again and again. Even a guru used the Second World’s character creation system to replicate her, but sadly, the imitation lacked any soul and was ridiculed by netizens.
Of course, that’s all in hindsight now.
At present, Ian, worried about Su Ruan, used his own spiritual power to destroy the instance and brought her back to [Lu Su Pavilion].
[Are you okay, Darling?] Ian’s eyes flashed with regret.
He forgot that Darling couldn’t possibly know how to consume those spiritual powers.
Fortunately, Darling is unharmed, otherwise, even dying a million times wouldn’t be enough.
Su Ruan sat on the sofa, her eyes slightly red.
She stared at Ian, who was waving his Big Clamp, raised her hand, and grasped his claw, applying slight pressure.
"Where is Lu Shinian?" she asked.
Ian was momentarily dazed.
Lu Shinian? He’s heard of the name.
The human Commander who killed the Insect Queen a decade ago.
Strong, cunning in deployment, adept at tricks, back then he had the Insect Queen wrapped around his finger.
At that time, he was trapped in the Spiritual Domain, unclear of the events of those years, but the one who could kill the Insect Queen is not to be underestimated.
How is Darling connected to Lu Shinian?
Seeing Ian’s lack of response, Su Ruan coolly looked up, a blood mist roiling faintly in her pupils.
"Where is he?"
[Calm down, Darling.] Ian detected something off about Su Ruan and spun in anxiety, tentatively extending his spiritual power to soothe her.
But as soon as his spiritual power emerged, it was forcefully pressed down by Su Ruan’s spiritual power.
Ian, caught off guard by the overwhelming force, received an alert from the system detecting his dangerous state, immediately issuing a warning: [Danger detected, logging off in three seconds.]
[Three.]
Ian’s pupils constricted sharply, rushing to instruct: [Darling, don’t misbehave, I’ll be right back online!]
[One.]
Ian was ejected.
Gazing at the empty living room, Su Ruan slowly stood up.
The rampaging spiritual power wreaked havoc, tearing through the furniture, seemingly about to destroy the entire Lu Su Pavilion in the next second.
White light lit up in the living room, revealing a towering figure.
Su Ruan looked up.
