Chapter 853

Kiana's attack and dodge keys were almost smoking from being pressed.

This plot, combined with the specific attack perspective and intense BGM, gave her an extremely strong sense of immersion.

It was as if she herself were the one clashing with the Herrscher of Corruption.

In the game, seeing her attacks frequently missing, "Sakura" also appeared a bit anxious:

"It seems capturing your 【flaw】 is not easy."

"Whether I can outmaneuver you in speed head-on remains the key to everything; there are no shortcuts."

"Sakura's" seemingly weak words were intended to lower the Herrscher of Corruption's vigilance.

And the Herrscher of Corruption, who already knew this "Sakura" was just an illusion, naturally guessed the purpose of the other party's words, and thus cooperated with a coquettish laugh:

"That is right, competing in speed with 【Moment】, how interesting~"

While speaking, the Herrscher of Corruption's attention remained on the real Sakura and Yayi, who were waiting for their opportunity.

And her pretending not to know, besides being for fun, was also to find Sakura's flaw and corrupt her while Sakura attacked her.

"Although I witnessed it once before... still, I am full of anticipation~"

Sakura: "I fear what you are anticipating is not the sword technique, but the sight of us being helpless against you once again."

Herrscher of Corruption: "I am not the type of person to have such wicked thoughts, but even at a time like this, I can still find reasons to praise you..."

"So clever~"

She was indeed praising Sakura, but at the same time, she was praising herself.

"By the way, Sakura, does your sword technique not have a name of its own?"

???: "For an assassin, names are meaningless."

At this moment, Sakura's name suddenly changed to 【???】.

This detail was discovered by many sharp-eyed players.

Moreover, from the Herrscher of Corruption's eyes, one could see that this Sakura's voice came from behind the Herrscher.

At the same time, the Sakura illusion in front of the Herrscher of Corruption was cracking inch by inch.

Seeing this scene, a trace of "panic" appeared on the Herrscher of Corruption's face.

She subconsciously turned to look, but from the other side came a thunderclap, accompanied by Yayi's voice...

"It is too late, Herrscher of Corruption!"

Two flashes of the blade passed by.

"Clang~ Clang~~"

Yayi and the real Sakura finally appeared.

And behind them, the Herrscher of Corruption had been frozen along with the surrounding space, unable to move a single inch.

"How is it possible... you..."

Accompanied by a painful grunt, the Herrscher of Corruption let out an incredulous cry.

But suddenly, the grunt stopped abruptly, turning into a cheerful laugh: "... Hahaha, forget it~"

"Pretending to be shocked is truly too difficult for me~"

Yayi: "?!"

At this moment, Yayi suffered a double shock.

On one side, the Herrscher of Corruption, who had received the two's attack but was unharmed.

And on the other side... the anomaly on Sakura's body at this moment...

Green haze...

She knew very well what this represented, and thus, Yayi's face became somewhat ugly.

"... The slash just now... was also counted as a contact..."

Never expected that just one 【Moment】 attack would allow the Herrscher of Corruption to corrupt Sakura as well...

"Sakura, you are truly amazing," at this moment, the Herrscher of Corruption's annoying voice came again.

"I did not know your sword technique could do such things~"

"Using 【illusions】 to swap identities, letting Yayi act as bait, while the real you launched a sneak attack on me while I was off guard, completing the lockdown."

"Not bad, to be able to complete such cooperation without any communication... I am even a little jealous~"

"Unfortunately, my attention was always on 【you】; as long as I could avoid that sword that freezes space, the attack of the Seven Thunders of Retribution was nothing to worry about."

Hearing this, Yayi understood completely—

Sakura's plan had been seen through by the Herrscher of Corruption long ago.

And her pretending not to know was just to corrupt Sakura at the critical moment.

Now it seemed... they had lost.

The only chance... was gone.

And the players who saw this also understood.

While worried, they were also cursing in their hearts. This Herrscher of Corruption is too cunning.

Next... how are they going to win...

"In the end, was it just one move short, Herrscher of Corruption!"

After Sakura said this, the BGM in the game suddenly disappeared.

(Zhao Dezhao) And the Herrscher of Corruption also frowned: "... Hm?"

"Why do I feel... there is more to your words?"

Sakura: "Deceiving perception through 【illusions】 to complete a disguise... my sword technique cannot do such things."

"In the Elysian Realm, the only ones who possess this ability are the Eighth Divine Key... and 【Mental Perception-type】 Fusion Warriors."

Hearing this, the Herrscher of Corruption finally opened her eyes wide for the first time 【uncontrollably】.

"Mental perception-type... here?"

As her voice fell, a gentle white light suddenly shone from Yayi's body.

Even Yayi did not react to this situation.

And as the white light engulfed Yayi, Yayi's figure completely disappeared from the spot.

It turned out that Sakura's support this time was never 【defeating the Herrscher of Corruption】, but—"kidnapping" Yayi from the Herrscher's hands.

However... the Herrscher of Corruption was too powerful; wanting to "kidnap" Yayi from her hands... even if Su had the Thousand Realms One, it was not safe.

Therefore, Sakura could only pretend to be "accidentally" corrupted by the Herrscher, in order to distract the Herrscher of Corruption's attention.

Su, on the other hand, was responsible for taking Yayi away.

This is... a life for a life.

This is... the reason Sakura came to meet her death.

Seeing this, countless players fell silent.

Although they knew the purpose of saving Yayi was to eliminate the Herrscher of Corruption.

But no matter what, they were saving Yayi with their lives.

How could this not be moving...
