The Labyrinth of the Monsters

Qing Ling looked around and quickly made a choice, "This game."

"Samurai Spirits! Great!" Wu Dahai eagerly sat down in front of the game console.

Since the stool was short, Qing Ling had nowhere to put her long legs. She simply took off her shoes, crossed her legs, and rested her chin on her knees. Ignoring her icy face, her posture looked somewhat lazy and cute.

"Have you played before?" Wu Dahai asked.

"No." Qing Ling held the controller and was unfamiliar with the four buttons on the left side. After inserting the coin, she didn't know how to select a character.

Wu Dahai was patient with beautiful women. "This controls the direction, and you can select a character... Yes, when you see the one you like, press the A button."

Qing Ling didn't care and directly chose the first one.

"Haohmaru! Great!" Wu Dahai smiled, "Then I'll choose Jin Uzuki!"

After selecting the characters, they started the PK.

This novel is available on ".

Jin Uzuki, controlled by Wu Dahai, quickly attacked and used a series of combos to knock Haohmaru to the ground. Just as Haohmaru stood up, Jin Uzuki was already close.

"Reverse Hell Slash!"

"Secret Technique! Fine Snow!"

In the game, Jin Uzuki performed a dazzling combo, and Haohmaru's health bar quickly depleted. He screamed in pain and fell to the ground without getting up. Qing Ling didn't even have a chance to make a move.

Although Wu Dahai perfectly defeated Qing Ling, he didn't feel a sense of accomplishment.

Best of three.

In the second round, Wu Dahai didn't rush to attack but patiently taught Qing Ling, "A is a light slash, try pressing it."

Qing Ling pressed it, and Haohmaru quickly swung his sword, injuring Jin Uzuki.

"B is a medium slash, press it."

Qing Ling followed suit, and Haohmaru swung his sword at a moderate speed, pushing Jin Uzuki back two steps.

"AB is a heavy slash, press them together."

Qing Ling pressed both buttons simultaneously, and Haohmaru slowly swung his sword heavily, knocking Jin Uzuki to the ground.

"The C key is a light kick. The D key is a heavy kick. Pressing CD together is a heavy kick. It's the same."

As a beginner who had never played before, Qing Ling quickly caught on. She repeated it quickly.

"Alright! Let's begin." Wu Dahai started controlling his character.@@novelbin@@

Ten seconds later, Haohmaru, controlled by Qing Ling, was defeated miserably. However, there was progress this time. At least Haohmaru resisted and caused slight damage to Jin Uzuki.

"Best of three, you lost." Wu Dahai stood up.

"One more time," Qing Ling said.

"Let's do it next month."

"One more time," Qing Ling repeated, her eyes filled with burning fighting spirit.

Wu Dahai hesitated for a moment, "Alright, one more time."

"Wow, are you making an exception?" Officer Huang couldn't tell if he was happy or hurt for a moment. "I've asked you before, but you never made an exception."

"Nonsense. What benefits do I get from making an exception for an old man like you?" Wu Dahai said confidently, then looked at Qing Ling, "I can give you another chance, but I want to touch your hand."

Qing Ling looked puzzled, "Why?"

Wu Dahai smirked, "To be honest, I've never touched a girl's hand before, I mean, a human girl, not counting beasts."

"Is there a difference?" Qing Ling asked.

"Of course! Just the thought of the other person being a beast makes me lose interest! Those women in the organization are all so stingy, none of them are willing to let me touch. Really, it's just a touch, it won't cost them anything!"

Gao Yang saw a lecherous person who was so shameless for the first time and didn't know what to say for a moment.

After a moment of thought, Qing Ling bargained, "One more round, if I lose, you can touch."

"Alright! It's a deal!" Wu Dahai didn't expect Qing Ling to agree so readily. He was confident of winning!

"Let's begin."

Wu Dahai sat back down, inserted the coin, and they both chose Haohmaru and Jin Uzuki.

Wu Dahai felt that it was unfair for an experienced player like him to bully a newcomer, so he started teaching Qing Ling, "Let me teach you Jin Uzuki's combos..."

"No need, I have enough." Qing Ling directly refused.

"Alright, I won't go easy on you." This time, Wu Dahai didn't hold back and attacked more fiercely than the previous round.

Qing Ling didn't just stand there foolishly; she defended herself the whole time.

In a fighting game, defense was important. Standing and defending couldn't block low kicks. If crouching and defending, it couldn't block jumping attacks. It was necessary to quickly switch defensive actions based on the opponent's moves.

In this round, Qing Ling did nothing but defend.

Although her defensive actions were very agile, just defending without attacking would gradually deplete her health bar. Moreover, once the enemy got close, they could break her defense with close-range moves.

Qing Ling defended the entire round and lost.

She wasn't worried at all.

In the second round, Qing Ling started to try attacking.

She didn't use any techniques or combos—she didn't know any. She just stood still. When the opponent attacked, she defended. If the opponent got close, she used the quick light slash with the A button to push them away. If the opponent jumped, she used the medium slash with the B button to block.

As long as she timed these two moves correctly, she could basically counter any close-range or jumping attacks. Even if she couldn't counter, they would both receive damage, and they could exchange a small amount of health.

However, Wu Dahai was a skilled veteran player. As long as he found an opportunity to get close, he could quickly break through her defense, then follow up with a combo and immediately kill most of Qing Ling's health.

There was no suspense; Qing Ling lost again.

"You lost!" Wu Dahai stood up happily, looking straight at Qing Ling with eager eyes. "I want to touch your hand!"

Qing Ling stood up and reached out her hand to Wu Dahai.

Wu Dahai was very surprised. He didn't expect Qing Ling to be so straightforward!

Halfway through reaching out his hand, he suddenly pulled it back.

Suddenly, a greedy and lecherous smile appeared on his face. "How about this, I won't touch your hand. I can give you another chance to challenge me, but I want to touch your chest first. Touch first, then compete!"

Qing Ling remained expressionless, seemingly contemplating.

"Forget it, let's do it next time."Gao Yang couldn't stand it anymore. If it were his sister being teased like this, he would have thrown a punch long ago. But he had no place to interfere in Qing Ling's affairs, he could only offer some advice.

"Yeah, victory or defeat is a common occurrence in the military." Officer Huang also tried to persuade, "I've seen many fallen girls in my decade-long career. But in your case, Qing Ling... there's no need, really no need."

Qing Ling's competitive spirit flared up. She ignored them and turned to Wu Dahai, "Fine."
