"Sleep duration today: New Moon Phase, 60 Dream Quota settled (The Moon God does not favor you)."

"Thoughts received today: 150 points, 150 Dream Quota settled (Someone hopes you will live well)."

"Reward today: Pet Girl, 110 Dream Quota settled."

"Dream Quota held by Luna: 840 points (520+60+150+110)."

The third Moon Phase ended calmly, but Ren Suo knew that the fourth Moon Phase wouldn't be that simple.

Luna now had nine Silver Moon Crystals. With twelve Silver Moon Crystals having appeared across the three Moon Phases, she was already far ahead of the other competitors.

The last contest for the Waxing Gibbous Moon of the third Moon Phase took place in a sports stadium. Previously, this spot wasn't a sports stadium but a restaurant named Dragon Carving Pavilion. The Apostles of the Moon God had forcibly demolished it and replaced it with a bowl-shaped stadium.

In the stadium, killing came first, competing second.

When Luna went to retrieve the Silver Moon Crystal, about ten people were watching her closely. Likely, many of them were companions of the Apostles of the Moon God. As soon as Luna showed up, she was driven out of the stadium.

Fortuitously, Luna had acquired a miracle just before the Waxing Gibbous Moon that perfectly suited the situation:

"Your miracle is complete Invisibility."

"But your price is you can only walk in darkness; exposed to light you are extremely vulnerable."

So, Ren Suo had Luna sneak into the stadium along the shadows, then grab the Silver Moon Crystal the moment it appeared and run. The whole process was incredibly fast, and she only suffered a bit from a Lightning Spell.

And it was that lightning strike that almost pushed Luna to the brink of death.

The vulnerability mentioned in 'exposed to light you are extremely vulnerable' meant that when Luna's form was exposed, her physical and magic resistance were locked at -200%. Any hit she took would indeed be a perfect four-times critical hit!

After returning, Luna woke up the sleeping doctor, hugged him tight, and threw a big tantrum. This act also allowed Luna to finally earn the last bit of Experience Points for 'Pet Girl,' perfectly embodying this character tag.

Although it was a blessing in disguise, the encounter in the stadium made Ren Suo realize that things might not be so easy moving forward.

No one wanted to give up the chance for Divine Enthronement.

Ren Suo suspected it was because Luna was too famous. Every Apostle of the Moon God had seen Luna grabbing Silver Moon Crystals at least once or twice, and they must have speculated that Luna had a better method to Probe for Silver Moon Crystals than they did.

Although everyone was secretly picking fruit, Luna's fruit-picking skill was simply Monkey King level. If they tried to fight Luna, they would find she was very strong, whether at a distance or in close combat. Coupled with her almost miraculous Ability to foretell, she was outstanding in both literary and martial arts. This meant the average Apostle of the Moon God couldn't even touch Luna.

They couldn't beat Luna with sneaky tactics or in a one-on-one fight, so what could they do?

Ren Suo could almost hear other Apostles of the Moon God thinking, Facing this kind of heresy, we don't need to talk about martial ethics—it's time to unite and fight together!

Then, who knows which unscrupulous person changed the terrain in the dream within a dream, creating a stadium with an outdoor, multi-person, open-air, and nighttime special scene... The key was the stadium's high walls, which made escaping a bit difficult.

Most of the Apostles of the Moon God could see the advantage of the stadium: it minimized the advantage of mobility, broadened the battlefield, weakened the advantage of individual strength to its lowest, and maximized the advantage of a crowd!

The Apostles of the Moon God did not form an alliance. After all, no Apostle would want to connect with other Apostles. Only those in pre-arranged teams, like five-person squads formed in reality, had a foundation of Trust. The temptation of Divine Enthronement was too great, and in the Moon Masked World where killing was permissible, who could trust anyone?

But the existence of the stadium allowed them to reach a tacit agreement: once Luna appeared, they would first expel and exterminate her, preventing her from continuing to acquire Silver Moon Crystals.

In the third Moon Phase, there were only two sports stadiums, but that might not be the case going forward...

Moreover, some Apostles of the Moon God were silently working on their character tags. Perhaps someone would suddenly become the head coach of the League of Legends, bringing eighty thousand warriors to snatch the Silver Moon Crystal. Or perhaps someone would form a family relationship with a strong warrior, bringing their dad to bully kids...

The further it went, the more the other Apostles of the Moon God accumulated, and the harder the game became.

Of course, in the face of absolute strength, these plots and Demons and Monsters were as flimsy as a Sand Sculpture facing a giant wave, or mountain snow meeting a warm spring—effortlessly decimated.

Therefore, Ren Suo decided to let Luna continue with Masked Sleep and select character tags!

He figured out that although Masked Sleep supposedly consumed two Moon Phase time slots, totaling six hours, Luna's awakening time varied. She would wake up at the exact moment of the Moon Phase change after two Moon Phases. This meant she didn't necessarily need to Sleep for the full six hours!

As long as it wasn't too excessive, like not even an hour having passed, then even if Luna entered Masked Sleep, she would Sleep for about five hours and then wake up the moment the Silver Moon Crystal descended!

Ren Suo's intention was clear: I want them all! I want the Silver Moon Crystals, the first blood of every Silver Moon Crystal (the first person who picks it up gets 1,000 Experience Points), and I want the character tags even more! Utilize all the resources in the game, seize every opportunity, and make Luna's power grow like a rolling snowball until she becomes the undisputed strongest in the Moon Masked World!

Ren Suo first opened the map to see if he could change the Silver Moon Crystal's descent location to complex terrain. He found it was possible and not even that expensive. Ren Suo blinked. Could it really be that simple to change the terrain back?

Ren Suo looked left and right, then saw a line of fine print in the description: "If the dream conflicts with the thoughts of the Apostle of the Moon God, it will automatically correct for compromise."

Ren Suo pondered for a good while. He guessed that Apostles of the Moon God indeed had the Ability to distort dreams. However, if many Apostles tried to twist the same place simultaneously, or if an Apostle's distortion severely conflicted with the dream, mutual compromises would likely occur.

For example, if one Apostle wished this place to be a toilet and another wished it to be a tavern, then this place could likely become a venue that looked like a tavern but had rows of latrine pits inside.

If Luna were to change a Silver Moon Crystal's descent location to a forest, it could very well create a forest inside a stadium...

Although he wasn't sure if his thinking was correct, Ren Suo had no intention of verifying it. It's better to just focus on strengthening Luna than to mess with those unorthodox tricks, he thought.

Continuing to browse the character tag list, Ren Suo found that all character tags related to doctors and nurses had become much cheaper, and even some more complex character tags had appeared.

Perfectly playing 'Pet Girl' had not only brought Luna closer to them, but it was as if she had suddenly seen the light. A new world opened up, and she wanted to try more fun ways to play:

"Exclusive Home Tutor: Make sure to pass all kinds of knowledge to him. Perfect play can gain 1,500 Experience Points, 120 Dream Quota, Comprehension +10."

"Virtuous Wife and Good Mother: You are a good woman whom everyone likes—capable in the kitchen and elegant in the hall, dignified and lingeringly gentle. Perfect play can gain 1,500 Experience Points, 125 Dream Quota, 'Master Chef' passive Skill."

"Childhood Sweetheart: Over time, a bond forms, like sand accumulating into a tower. Regardless of like, Resentment, love, or hate, it's simply because one cannot get used to the other's absence; they must spend the rest of their lives together. Perfect play can gain 1,700 Experience Points, 150 Dream Quota, Physical Strength +8."

There were over a dozen such character tags, and Ren Suo felt dizzy looking through them all. He scratched his head and lay down on the couch. Noticing his Clone had finished the household chores, he motioned for the Clone to come over.

"Mmm..."

"Ooh..."

"Mmm, yes, right there. Harder... Ooh..."

This time, Ren Suo had not wasted his Effort. The Massage Technique he learned from Zhao Huo was indeed good. Although he had used 'The Demon King Returns' and 'A Thousand Miles in a Day' to speed up the learning process, he had, at most, just skimmed the surface.

Yet even a cursory knowledge of massage techniques had immensely pleased Ren Suo.

Despite being a Third-turn Cultivator, his body hadn't transcended human limits. Ren Suo was healthy, but it was normal for parts of his body to be slightly stiff. While this didn't affect his normal life, a comfortable massage would make his body much more relaxed. According to Zhao Huo, even if one stayed up all night, they could feel more energized as the night progressed.

A moment's massage is refreshing; keep massaging, keep it refreshing... Ren Suo hummed to himself, leisurely contemplating major life decisions. Maybe I should learn how to massage feet or something...

Returning his gaze to the screen, Ren Suo studied the list of over a dozen play styles for a long time. He discarded most options, leaving four that allowed Luna to wander around, but he still couldn't decide.

'The Problematic Senior Sister' is pretty good; wandering around is no big deal... But this character tag, 'the sister who only likes her brother after losing her memory,' offers a bit more Experience Points. How should I choose... OOH!

Suddenly, the Clone pressed down on his trapezius muscle using the Spiral Force technique taught by Zhao Huo, making him shiver with comfort. He turned his head to glance at the expressionless Clone, then a thought struck him.

His eyes shifted back to the screen, slowly focusing on a peculiar character tag:

"Daughter of Asura: You don't believe in love but use love. You don't trust others but exploit them. Use your charm and means to make the other party lose everything and become exclusively yours. Perfect play can gain 2,000 Experience Points, 200 Dream Quota, 'Aura of Suspicion' passive Skill."

Ren Suo suddenly remembered. I'm a pitiful person who needs to summon a Clone to give myself a massage, after all. Why should I watch my own protagonist being lovey-dovey with someone else? Why should an NPC get my full attention and care? Why do I only have one Clone to serve me? Besides, this Clone has no other merits aside from doing household chores, giving massages, buying late-night snacks, and fighting!

Ren Suo was indignant. I'm choosing this not to prove how interesting this character tag is, nor to show how amazing I am. It's simply because I don't want to see others flaunting their love!
