"Huh?"
Chen Luo couldn't help but feel a bit overwhelmed as the system prompts continued to echo in his ears.
Was this doomsday game so considerate?
As if hearing Chen Luo's inner thoughts, the game panel automatically unfolded before his eyes.
[As the first person in this game world, you enjoy certain privileges, and this game also looks forward to your future performance.]
[Friendly reminder, the Forbidden Tier has initially possessed the qualification to step into the void. You can explore it yourself later, and the system will also release corresponding tasks.]
[The completion conditions for this World Boss challenge mission have been changed. The player has subdued "Frosty Arrogance" by force, and the target's favorability has reached the standard. Do you wish to take the World Boss "Frosty Arrogance" as your mount?]
The system prompts, though brief, contained a significant amount of information.
Chen Luo himself had some awareness of the doomsday game's preferential treatment. In the past six months, among the nearly thirty million people in the Great Yan, hidden professions were extremely rare.
And players like himself, who frequently triggered missions, were practically unheard of.
In fact, humanity and even the undead race had very little understanding of this game.
Human online games were essentially cultural products operated by game companies for profit.
Therefore, game designers often engaged in actions that were not entirely humane, but the underlying purpose was to maximize the profits of the operating company, and players were ultimately just leeks to be harvested.
However, this mysterious doomsday game, according to the intelligence provided by Theodore, the King of the Undead.
No one knew who created this game. Since its discovery, this existence named "Doomsday Game" had been constantly traversing different worlds.
After the current world was completely destroyed, it would move on to the next.
In the process, the high-level beings who roamed the void accidentally discovered the existence of the game.
High-level beings, who could freely traverse worlds, did not care about a mysterious "game."
After all, there were too many strange and magnificent things in the void.
But when the high-level beings discovered that "Origin" could be physically extracted in the gamified worlds, they proactively inserted themselves into the worlds the "game" reached.
The invading races were the spokesmen for their will. In the first act, where the high-level beings' main bodies could not enter, the invading races would directly destroy the civilization of the current world and turn the native inhabitants into livestock that produced "Origin."
However, the high-level beings merely treated the "game" as a pasture. In reality, they did not know what the purpose of this so-called "Doomsday Game" was.
But at this moment, from the first sentence of the game system's prompt, Chen Luo seemed to sense some emotion from the game system.
It didn't seem to simply want to bring doomsday to the world; its stance seemed to be aligned with the players.
Chen Luo shook his head, temporarily suppressing this peculiar thought. At least knowing that the game was not opposed to the players was good news.
As for the qualification to enter the void mentioned in the second sentence, Chen Luo had a general understanding.
A Domain was the ticket to stepping into the void. Only a Domain that resisted the erosion of the void and engraved the self could provide a small boat for those who roamed the void.
However, Chen Luo currently had no plans to roam the void, as his own home was less than two years away from being attacked.
As for the final prompt, it resolved the current predicament.
He glanced at the dragon girl beside him, who looked like a scaredy-cat, and Chen Luo sighed deeply:
"Alright, I won't kill you. You can be my mount from now on."
[Player has agreed, awaiting target's reply...]
The dragon girl, who was in a state of panic and had largely lost her composure, was stunned by this.
Mount?
This was an insult, wasn't it? This was definitely an insult!
Although the dragon girl had not received any formal education, she had roamed many worlds through her natural upbringing, and thus had formed some sense of honor and disgrace.
Upon hearing Chen Luo's words, her first reaction was that her pride had been trampled upon, and she instinctively felt resistance.
[Target's favorability detected to be decreasing. "Frosty Arrogance" is highly likely to refuse! Please appease the target's emotions!]
Chen Luo's mouth twitched. Good heavens,
Didn't you just brainwash this guy and turn him into my mount after I agreed?
So it still depended on her favorability, and she had to agree willingly?
Taking a mount wasn't like taking a wife, why did she need to agree?
You want me to appease her? Can I appease her physically?
But the mission was here, and at least he didn't have to kill this dragon girl, so Chen Luo wasn't that resistant.
Thinking of this, Chen Luo looked again at the dragon girl who had shown him kindness.
After transforming into human form, the dragon girl's graceful figure was even a head taller than Chen Luo. Beneath her ice-blue hair, her dark golden dragon eyes flickered with defiance.
As a perfect creature, after transforming into human form, the dragon girl's appearance was the most perfect Chen Luo had ever seen.
Especially her natural arrogance and icy demeanor, which involuntarily evoked a desire to conquer.
At this moment, with her no longer chattering, the dragon girl's reluctance due to Chen Luo's "improper" request gave Chen Luo a strange sense of stimulation.
"Human... a scholar can be killed but not insulted! I..."
BOOM!!
Before the dragon girl could finish speaking, a fist the size of a sandbag whizzed past her crystal-clear ear.
The intense fist wind directly blasted a ten-thousand-meter-long black passage in the sky.
Feeling the terrifying power condensed in the fist on the tiny hairs at the edge of her ear, the dragon girl couldn't help but tremble.
This feeling of impending death made the dragon girl's small mouth open, but she could no longer speak.
Chen Luo's voice, devoid of any emotion, looked at the trembling dragon girl with his dark eyes and said calmly:
"Sorry, I missed. Please organize your words again."
"Wuwu..." The dragon girl let out a mournful cry. In her tens of thousands of years of existence, apart from sleeping, she had been wandering in the void.
Her naturally noble bloodline meant she had never experienced any setbacks.
Those high-level beings who roamed the void, due to certain considerations, would not attack a true dragon born from the void.
Not to mention that even after entering the game, she had always been a background boss in the first act, with no opportunity to have a good fight.
Therefore, she had never encountered someone as "kind" as Chen Luo in her life.
Under the intense mental shock, her mimicry could no longer be maintained.
As the dragon girl trembled like a scaredy-cat, a dazzling ice-blue light enveloped her entire body.
Within this light, her form underwent a new change.
