World No. 8, in the perceptions of the people, is a dark world filled with terror and evil.

Whether it's the Suffering Bodhisattva or the Secret Peeping Man, in the understanding of most countries, they are considered evil gods.

Shen Sui, who had personally interacted with the Suffering Bodhisattva, was also very certain of this.

Shen Sui was very sure that in the games he played in his past life, none contained a setting like the Suffering Bodhisattva.

On this issue, even Vivian was powerless, as she was not an omniscient and omnipotent God. Even in those Soul Card Worlds, what role Shen Sui played, Vivian could only speculate through some remaining historical documents.

And such speculations are often inaccurate, after all, the degree of freedom of the main perspective character controlled by the player differs in different games.

"Dawn Link" has a very high degree of freedom, so Shen Sui has a very clear understanding of his actions and can quickly recall them through some reminders.

And there are many other games where the settings of the controlled characters are actually pre-designed by the development team, with all shaping completed under the established main storyline. Although Shen Sui would occasionally watch the plot, due to the varying levels of the development team's shaping skills, he barely remembers a few low-level plots.

In such games, instead of telling Shen Sui about the protagonist's deeds, it's better to talk about power systems or stylistic mechanisms, as these might help Shen Sui remember which game it is.

And this is the reason why Shen Sui, after seeing the introduction of thirty-three Soul Card Worlds, immediately discovered that World No. 1 was the game world of "Dawn Link".

If not for discovering that "Dawn Link" was World No. 1, and thinking he might use the advantages in the game to quickly grow his Soul Card, otherwise, given Shen Sui's personality, he might have opted for World No. 13, full of cute shipgirls, but it's a pity he didn't recognize any of them, and they all seemed like fantasy ships. At least Shen Sui couldn't find any historical prototype from these shipgirl names.

The relationship between World No. 8 and Shen Sui can only be explored by Shen Sui himself. What Vivian was sure of is that all records related to Shen Sui in World No. 8 exist in records more than a thousand years ago. After confirming that Shen Sui wasn't in World No. 8, Vivian left this very uncomfortable world. — Before leaving, she went through and killed all of the dominators in this world.

Unfortunately, the dominators of World No. 8 are just like the gods of Dawn Continent. As long as someone still believes in them, they will quickly resurrect.

Indeed, just over a hundred years have passed, and the dominators of World No. 8 have made a comeback, even planning to target the real world.

Vivian actually knows about this situation, but she is also powerless to change it, at least she has given the people of World No. 8 a hundred years of time.

Shen Sui would have liked to talk more with Vivian, but her team had to do night training.

The trouble with Candlelight Illusion is that once it leaves the set track, it can easily collapse completely.

The collapse of the Illusion is just like its birth, the world will provide a reasonable explanation.

Vivian left only one illusion in the real world, and Shen Sui didn't really want to mess with it.

However, if he defeated Vivian in this match, according to An Wei's setting, Vivian could come looking for Shen Sui every day. After all, the little witch must defeat her previous opponents.

On the way back, Shen Sui was still trying hard to recall a game related to World No. 8.

Such a game full of eerie atmosphere...

Lovecraftian style? Dark Soul style? Or perhaps Esoteric Buddhism Simulator-type games?

Shen Sui played quite a few similar games, but what he remembered were the more familiar and big titles, but it's clear that the setting of World No. 8 doesn't quite match those big titles.

Moreover, listening to Vivian, she found that world following the clues provided by the world consciousness of Dawn Continent.

These foreign single-player games don't require real-name registration either.

Could it be another domestic game I've reviewed?

"What's wrong?" Qishala suddenly stopped beside him, looking up at the sky.

Qishala slightly frowned and said, "It seems like some power has appeared but quickly vanished."

Shen Sui didn't doubt Qishala's sharpness at all. A few days ago, she was able to sneakily do bad things with Shen Sui when Freymia was nearby.

With a slight examination, Shen Sui revealed a pleased expression.

The taste of this power was very familiar to him.

The All-Knowing.

The Secret Peeping Man.

I didn't actively seek you out, yet you dare to appear in front of me?

"Let's go, Qishala," Shen Sui said to Qishala, "Let's go have a good meeting with those guys."

Shen Sui is not exactly a person who likes to meddle.

However, since the All-Knowing dared to move against his friends around him, Shen Sui intended to teach them a lesson.

Moreover, Shen Sui is now very curious about what kind of existence he is in World No. 8. The All-Knowing, as an extension of the Secret Peeping Man's power in the real world, certainly has Life Card Masters from World No. 8. Using someone else's role to roam around World No. 8 doesn't seem like such a difficult task.

Coastal City is a small city by the sea, but its nightlife is very vibrant.

The sea breeze blew across the city's sky, taking away the city's residual warmth.

Shen Sui leisurely walked towards the source of the power.

The other side was very clever, this power appeared briefly and, once it vanished, even Qishala couldn't sense its existence. But in Shen Sui's eyes, these originally dissipating powers were very clearly displayed.

The power of the Secret Peeping Man seemed to have a hint of a secretive attribute.

Indeed, a peeper must learn to hide himself.

In Vivian's description, the Secret Peeping Man is like an old rogue. Such a person has great desires but is often very timid. Shen Sui was very curious about what exactly he coveted in the real world.

What surprised Shen Sui was that the end of this power was not some dark alley, nor a secretive house, but a giant open-air stage.

A man in a suit was there passionately giving a speech.

In a few days, Coastal City will host a very large event called the "City Duel Tournament."

But Shen Sui, upon seeing the rules, thought they might as well rename it Duel City.

In this event, participants can duel anywhere within Coastal City, and the winner of a duel can take one card from the loser's deck as a prize.

This duel has no knockout rounds but ranks purely by points, somewhat akin to the rules of a duel enthusiast's gathering.

When the event concludes, the Life Card Master with the highest score on the leaderboard will receive a special reward from the organizers.

The grand prize is a 15-star Follower Card.

The card's name was deliberately obscured, revealing only part of its effect.

[This follower is unaffected by the effects of other cards.]

[As long as this follower is on the field, the opponent's hand and the top card of their deck are always visible to you.]

As for the rest, it has yet to be revealed.

However, regardless of the effect, the 15-star level alone of this prize is enough to attract a multitude of Life Card Masters to vie for it.

Shen Sui looked at the brochure in his hand and had vaguely sensed that someone wanted to stir things up. He quickly located the source of the power: that Life Card as the final prize.

...

Could this card be the Secret Peeping Man himself?

Shen Sui suddenly had an outrageous thought.

With the precedent of the Suffering Bodhisattva, it's no longer surprising to Shen Sui that the Dominator of World No. 8 could invade this world through his Follower Life Card.

If using the Secret Peeping Man as a bridge to invade World No. 8, that would be a very interesting thing to observe.

Shen Sui felt a restless excitement, even a strong urge to snatch the card and enjoy it thoroughly.

But he quickly suppressed this desire in his heart.

As a strong individual, one can be free from any secular rules, but within the heart, there must be a bottom line of self-restraint; otherwise, it'd be easy to become the kind of bastard who destroys planets at a whim.

Shen Sui's bottom line is very flexible, but a bottom line it remains.

Participate in this competition and see if he can catch a few Life Card Masters from World No. 8.

Shen Sui's goal remained clear and distinct.

"Are you going to sign up, Qishala?" Shen Sui knew that Freymia probably wasn't interested in this kind of competition, so he asked Qishala, who was beside him.

Qishala also knows how to play cards.

In fact, in the game, almost no one around Shen Sui doesn't know how to play.

Qishala thought about it, shook her head, and said, "No need, master, I don't have a deck of cards either."

"The Dueling Device isn't expensive, the main thing is the Soul Cards," Shen Sui said with a smile.

Qishala fell into a moment of reminiscing.

"If I really had to say it...." she slowly began, "I do have a junior I originally planned to care for, the granddaughter of an old acquaintance. But she's not from the Dawn Continent; I met her during my travels across different worlds."

"Ah, that's also doable," Shen Sui said, "Anyway, you don't have much going on, you can chat with the girls every day like Freymia."

"I actually don't want her to contact extraordinary power." Qishala sighed, saying, "In that world, girls who gain extraordinary power always end up with bad outcomes."

"What world is it?"

"In that world, they call the extraordinary ones 'Magical Girls.'

...Shen Sui fell into a brief silence.

Why is it that nowadays, Magical Girls always equate with darkness, mystery, and brokenness?

"If that's the case, then there's no need to force it," Shen Sui said, "One shouldn't manipulate others' lives casually due to a Life Card."

This point Shen Sui understood deeply from Lin Zhen's example, which is why he indulged Alice so much, never deliberately guiding her to do anything.

To Shen Sui, Alice should be able to choose her own future.

Just as Shen Sui was about to say something, the Dueling Device activated.

Damn!

Don't mess with me when I'm expressing my educational philosophy! Alice!
