"Are you sure?" Student Xiao D hesitated, "Tiantian, failing once is not shameful."
"Even those veteran writers, who traverse countless novel worlds, kill people, slay demons, fear nothing, still cannot easily face their own deaths."
This is only human nature, it’s a biological instinct, there’s no need to feel inferior or ashamed because of this.
There’s no need to intentionally face difficulties because of these emotions.
Doing missions is for earning points and getting rewards, not for self-torture.
He Tiantian restrained her smile, her expression calm and resolute.
Student Xiao D was somewhat touched; although it didn’t understand human emotions, seeing He Tiantian moved it somehow.
Woo, their Tiantian is so brave, so impressive, truly just half a step away from being a villain.
He Tiantian:...What do you mean "just half a step away from being a villain"?
If I really wanted to be a villain, I would definitely be the biggest one.
"Restart the novel world!"
Student Xiao D yelped emotionally, then again broadcasted monotonously.
The space in front of her began to twist, and He Tiantian immediately went into a defensive stance.
She frantically executed the Wuji Technique within her and, using her hand as a pen, drew a Vajra Talisman in the void.
Although she knew it might not be useful, He Tiantian would not miss any necessary precautions.
Upon opening her eyes again, there was still a fierce Ice Cone flying towards her.
The speed was too fast, and the Ice Cone had already been flying through the air for some time, the tip just a centimeter or two from the throat of He Tiantian’s current body.
There was simply no time for any reaction.
Still, He Tiantian gritted her teeth and controlled her still unadapted body, quickly dodging to the side.
The Ice Blade narrowly missed grazing the skin of He Tiantian’s neck, leaving behind a trace.
No skin was broken, but there was some bruising.
To dodge this lethal move, He Tiantian’s body twisted sharply to the side.
Her large frame lost balance, teetering dangerously close to intimate contact with the ground.
He Tiantian hurriedly moved her feet, trying to find a new balance point.
Just then, a sharp whooshing sound reached her ears.
He Tiantian cursed the system internally for being a trap, but she dared not slack off even a bit.
Struggling to turn over, she pushed hard against the ground with both hands, intending to perform a flip to completely escape the attack range of the Ice Cone.
But, she underestimated the clumsiness and bulk of this body, possessing martial arts skills but not yet fully merged with the body.
So, the body simply couldn’t perform the complicated rolling movement as instructed by He Tiantian, and she ended up falling to the ground.
She rolled away with a rumbling sound.
"Ding! Mission released: Counter-kill Gu Bei!"
Just then, the system decided to join in on the fun, issuing a mission deep within He Tiantian’s sea of consciousness.
Counter-kill Gu Bei?!
By counter-kill, He Tiantian understood there was someone trying to kill this body, and she had to kill them in return.
So, the person relentlessly throwing Ice Cones at her was named Gu Bei!
If he doesn’t die, she might be in danger.
Especially remembering how she had just been pierced through the throat by an Ice Cone.
He Tiantian indeed still maintained a normal sense of morality, but she wouldn’t repay evil with kindness.
They had already killed her once, and now they were doggedly pursuing her, clearly determined not to stop until they killed her.
New grudges and old, along with self-defense, He Tiantian absolutely had a reason to counter-kill her opponent.
But... He Tiantian’s eyes flickered, she always had a nagging feeling something was off.
However, whether it felt right or not was temporarily unimportant; what she needed most at the moment was to get rid of the "chase"!
This body had no suitable weapon on hand, but He Tiantian did.
In the library space, she had a complete set of surgical equipment.
And in the Divine Sculpture World, He Tiantian relied on anesthesia needles, and actually managed to subdue the great hero Yang Guo.
With a slight movement of her thoughts, an item appeared in her palm.
Then, following the direction from which the Ice Cone was shot, she threw it in reverse.
That person, likely named Gu Bei, didn’t expect He Tiantian to have a weapon, and her action was too fast.
He couldn’t react in time, and it felt like something pricked his arm.
Immediately after, from the arm, a numbing sensation spread.
