“Ruoxi has told me everything. You are merely a tool. So, speak. Where is this place? What is the new mission?” Shen Qing appeared very calm, not fearing the other party in the slightest.
Barbatos was filled with resentment. It was all because of that first player, Liu Ruoxi, who had caused its current lowly status where no one feared it. The key point was that it truly could do nothing to the players; at most, it could secretly trip them up.
It was an intelligent life form, but within the Fallen Angel game, its authority was lower than that of a piece of non-sentient main program.
An intelligent life form could be considered a living person. It had no gender, but it possessed joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness. Having emotions represented risk, as they could easily affect the game’s็จๅบ. Therefore, its authority truly meant it could be seen as a tool. Sometimes, it couldn’t even compare to the players.
“This is the Illusion Space of the Fallen Angel game. According to human understanding, you can also think of it as a training space.”
“Training space?” Shen Qing frowned. “Explain in detail.”
“The Illusion Space is an important function of the Fallen Angel game for training all kinds of professional female livestock. For example, you, player Shen Qing, your profession is that of a bitch. The Illusion Space will teach you how to become a true bitch, including the training of your human sense of shame.”
“The Illusion Space will automatically select various scenarios and construct a real world. By human understanding, you can think of them as different instances. Within these instances, there will be all kinds of humansโmen, women, old, and young. You can treat these consciousnesses as vivid human beings. They might surround and watch you being trained by the Controller, stimulating your sense of shame.”
“Special note: each one of them is no different from a living person. Even though they are virtual consciousnesses, they possess their own independent personalities and emotions. You humans are merely carbon-based life forms. Given the game’s technological level, creating consciousness is not difficult.”
“For example, me, Lord Barbatos.” The silver sphere seemed very proud as it spoke to this point.
“You mean the worlds constructed by the Illusion Space will give birth to various NPCs, but they, like you, possess human consciousness and emotions. But isn’t this fake?” Shen Qing expressed some understanding but also some confusion.
“They are virtual consciousnesses, but they are not fake.” Barbatos seemed somewhat exasperated. “You humans aren’t that complex. Given the game’s technological level, creating real consciousness isn’t difficult.”
As if to prove its point, the silver sphere projected an image. The image was of a young man Shen Qing knew very wellโher son, Zhou Shiwen.
“See? For example, this person. The game can perfectly replicate his consciousness into the Illusion Space to observe the scenes of you, a female livestock, being trained by the Controller.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Qing’s heart tightened. The thought of her son watching scenes of her being trained by Xiao Ranran…
“So, is he real or fake?” Shen Qing was starting to lose her composure. Just imagining that scene filled her with shame.
“The replicated consciousness is a virtual consciousness. It is real, but don’t worry, he won’t know the slightest bit in reality,” Barbatos explained. “Within the Illusion Space, there are virtual consciousnesses and real consciousnesses. For example, you enter with your real consciousness. The experience in the Illusion Space is no different from reality; it is a real world.”
“The Illusion Space is a carefully constructed training ground for female livestock in the Fallen Angel game. Depending on the instance, players mustๆฎๆผ roles within that instance. Judgments are based on the role-play, and different็งฏๅ rewards are given. The more you act like the character in the scenario, the higher the reward.”
“At the same time, the Illusion Space does not affect anything in the real world in the slightest. For example, player Shen Qing, if you wear nipple rings in the Illusion Space, because you enter with your real consciousness, you will feel the pain of the rings piercing your nipples in the real worldโa 100% experience. However, in the real world, your nipples will remain unchanged.” Barbatos gave an on-the-spot example.
Shen Qing understood. In plain terms, the Illusion Space was a training ground for them, but it offered more็ฉๆณ and larger scales than reality.
“Then isn’t that quite good?” Shen Qing smiled slightly, unafraid.
“So, if I am to be trained, will it be the Controller’s real consciousness training me, or a replicated virtual consciousness of the Controller?” Shen Qing suddenly thought of this question. She was unwilling to be trained by a replicated virtual consciousness, even if it was a replica of Xiao Ranran.
“Don’t worry, player Shen Qing. The Controller, like you, enters the Illusion Space with their real consciousness.”
“Then if Xiao Ranran trains me in the Illusion Space, will he remember it in reality?” Shen Qing had some concerns. It wasn’t yet time to expose everything.
“The Controller will not remember. Rest assured, player Shen Qing.” Barbatos secretly laughed inwardly as it replied. Who told you to call me ‘Little Ba’? How can I not make things difficult for you if you don’t wear small shoes?
In fact, entering the Illusion Space with one’s real consciousness meant one would remember everything that happened there.
Hearing this, Shen Qing completely relaxed. This way, she had no reservations left.
“Player Shen Qing, the world you are about to enter is ‘Bitch and Master: Initial Training Chapter.’ You will play the female lead in the scenario,ๆฅๅing the master’s first training. The plot has been transmitted to you via consciousness.”
Shen Qing suddenly felt the instance’s plot being imported into her mind. She didn’t look at it because she had written this book herself. She was extremely familiar with every part of the plot.
Including the personality of the instance’s female lead, which was designed based on her own personality. She didn’t need to act; she simply was her.
…
On the other side, Yang Haoran was in the same dark, boundless space. He stood as if floating in the void, facing an identical silver sphere emitting white light.
“Where is this?” Yang Haoran looked around at the bottomless darkness, feeling somewhat panicked. He clearly remembered he was flirting with Aunt Shen on the bed, so how did he suddenly appear here? A dream?
“Finally, I’ve contacted you, Master. I am your servant, Barbatos. You may address me as Little Ba.” A voice suddenly came from the silver sphere, sounding somewhat ingratiating.
It danced happily around Yang Haoran, seemingly venting its inner excitement.
“You are…?” Looking at the talking sphere before him, Yang Haoran was bewildered. What was going on?
Was he dreaming? He must be!
“Master, please allow me to explain. This is the Illusion Space…” Following its script, Barbatos explained the situation to Yang Haoran.
“So, you’re saying I need to play the male lead in ‘Bitch and Master’ and complete the original plot with the story’s female lead?” Yang Haoran was stunned. How could such a good thing happen?
He had read the ‘Bitch and Master: Initial Training Chapter’ before. It was clearly a kind of erotic fortune.
“Yes, Master. I am the intelligent life form of the Controller’s Ring…” Barbatos introduced its own origin.
“That ring of mine is an object from beyond the sky? A game system from aliens?” Yang Haoran felt his whole body go numb. He must be dreaming. He vigorously slapped his own face.
“Smack… Ow, that hurts!” Yang Haoran covered his cheek in shock. He could feel the pain. This wasn’t a dream?
It was real.
“Master, the instance is about to begin. Please prepare yourself.”
As the silver sphere’s words fell, Yang Haoran suddenly felt dizzy, as if็ฉฟๆขญing through time and space. His entire body felt adrift, rushing towards a colorful vortex and้ปing inside.
That was the world of “Bitch and Master” constructed by the Illusion Space.
