Chapter 354 Fanfiction Section
Chapter 354 Fanfiction Section
"It's possible..." The system answered Jiang Xingni's question hesitantly, but it couldn't understand what kind of answer Jiang Xingni wanted from the forum or the comics.
The plan has already begun. No matter how powerful Jiang Xingni is, it's impossible for him to absorb the abilities of several thousand of his own without any consequences.
He Jingtong saw through what she was doing and understood what kind of ending she would eventually face, which is why he wanted to stop her.
But there's no way to stop it. Even if Jiang Xingni goes to read comics and forums, what can he possibly gain?
The system couldn't understand, and it asked softly, "Do you regret it?"
"I want to check out the fanfiction section." Jiang Xingni said to the system while suppressing the discomfort coming from her body—an endless power was about to overwhelm her, and even her consciousness was becoming blurred under such circumstances.
She has always been afraid of the doujinshi community. She herself has been a doujinshi fan, so she naturally knows what's going on in the doujinshi community.
Jiang Xingni herself had spread rumors when she was creating fanfiction, but the thought of these rumors happening to her made her feel an indescribable sense of embarrassment.
She was equally afraid of knowing what kind of Jiang Xingni the readers liked when they said they liked her, whether they liked her as a person or their projection onto her, and what about her that made so many people love her.
Until now.
Jiang Xingni thought to herself, she needed to go and see, she absolutely had to go and see. She didn't know if her popularity could successfully reach its peak after death, and if it didn't work...
She had to see the embodiment of so many people's popularity before she died. She wanted to know in what way each person who gave her the impression of "liking" loved her, and what kind of her they loved.
Jiang Xing then gave the system a soft, gentle smile.
"I want to go and see," Jiang Xingni said.
She wanted to see for herself how much they truly loved her.
She wanted to see why she deserved so much love.
She wanted to take a look.
The system has no reason to disagree.
Although Jiang Xingni's five senses were almost overwhelmed by the surging energy, she could still see the pictures and text in the forum under the system's projection.
[all stars] If Jiang Xingni dies, what will be the reaction of the main characters?
Jiang Xingni clicked into the fanfiction section and the first thing he saw was this post—hot, which was floating on the first line of the homepage.
She couldn't help but chuckle; it was about to become the official plot. Jiang Xingni mentally muttered a curse. Sisters, sisters, the death-faking fiction you love is finally here! Aren't you excited?
The system couldn't understand how Jiang Xingni could still appear so cheerful at this moment. It dared not ask, fearing that Jiang Xingni was just putting on a brave front and would break down as soon as the question was asked.
Jiang Xingni only muttered a complaint in his heart before filtering his tags and continuing to scroll down.
[Xie Xing] You are the beginning and the end of my cycle of reincarnation.
[Pei Xing] Seriously?! How can they let a support character go to the battlefield?!
[Xiao Xing] Wake up! We're childhood sweethearts, that's the best!
[Phone Found/All Characters] So mysterious, who is the real anime/manga character?
[Jiang Xingni's personal opinion] You possess a pair of eyes as clear as gold.
[Xu Xing/Mashup] miss
……
Personal, pairing, all-around, BL, ensemble cast...
Jiang Xingni quietly scrolled down.
Fan-made songs, fan art, fan fiction, hand-drawn animations, comic book mashups, fan-made short dramas, radio dramas...
All kinds of them.
Jiang Xingni finally realized just how much love was hidden behind the countless popularity ratings.
Jiang Xingni didn't actually feel that she was worthy of their love.
Jiang Xingni could see that, whether in painting or writing, the deep affection was fully revealed between the lines and in every stroke.
They expressed their love for a virtual character with such enthusiasm that it could be described as unrestrained, and Jiang Xingni only now had the courage to see for herself just how passionate their love truly was.
In a moment, Jiang Xingni suddenly felt guilty.
"I can't reciprocate their love," Jiang Xingni said to the system.
Not only the many readers outside the screen, but also the bonds that have been built among the main characters over this period of time.
She wasn't stupid; how could she not see the admiration many people in the group had for her? But Jiang Xingni simply didn't have the heart to respond to any of it. Besides, even if she did respond, how long could she stay with them? It would be better to have never started.
She couldn't respond to the love of so many people from beyond dimensions, nor could she respond to the love of those right beside her, who were within her reach.
"What do I have that makes them love me?" Jiang Xingni asked the system softly.
The energy surged more and more fiercely, and even though the system projected the forum images into her eyes, she still had difficulty making out the text. The images and text were mixed together, turning into one colorful scene after another, while the sounds around her also became more and more distant.
"Jiang Xingni!" He Jingtong truly hadn't expected that in the blink of an eye, he would see Jiang Xingni absorbing all the power of the clones into himself. How could a human body withstand so much power? The only outcome would be certain death. "They're not worth doing this to!"
He Jingtong was furious.
Throughout his education, he had never seen anyone like Jiang Xingni. Those clones were indeed innocent, He Jingtong admitted, but what did that have to do with Jiang Xingni? They were just unlucky to be caught here.
If he could find a way to save them, he might, but no matter what, the lives of those thousands of people are nothing compared to Jiang Xingni's life!
He simply couldn't accept that Jiang Xingni was willing to sacrifice himself to save these ordinary people.
"Stop it now...!" His fingers traced talismans in the air, trying to stop Jiang Xingni's progress. As long as it stopped, Jiang Xingni would have a chance to survive.
He Jingtong truly experienced a rare feeling of being so angry that his chest ached. He watched helplessly as Jiang Xingni's body seemed to be torn to pieces, with cracks appearing on the surface of her skin. However, what flowed out was not blood, but golden light.
She was trapped in the shimmering golden light emanating from the crevice, her eyes tightly closed, and blood slowly flowing from her seven orifices.
He Jingtong's talisman was successfully inscribed in mid-air, but the translucent talisman flickered and did not play any role. It shattered in mid-air with a snap.
He Jingtong gritted his teeth and changed the inscribed talisman.
One healing talisman after another was pasted onto Jiang Xingni's body, futilely mending the cracks, but they could not stop the damage for long before being dispersed by the golden light.
He finally understood what Xie Yungui's feelings were like—how exactly am I supposed to save you?
