Chat group: People are in Zongman, and the entries are infinitely upgraded

After traveling to a comprehensive anime world that combines the worldviews of Touhou Project, Inuyasha, Nura: Ghost, etc.
Si Chen, who adopted a princess who ran away from a certain moon city, thought that all he needed to do next was to practice and become stronger step by step, and he would be successful if he could obtain the power to turn Gensokyo into a paradise before it was established.
Who would have thought that an invitation from Super Dimension Chat Junyang would appear in front of him.
Cancer of the Earth: “Wow, you’re a newcomer? Welcome~”
Snake Princess: “Welcome~”
Catwoman: “Why do I feel like you seem very excited, Chika-chan?”
Ms. Avalon: “You have not seen enough. If you stay for a while longer, you will find that Qianhua-chan is so excited every time someone comes to Junyangli.”

Chat group: People in Zongman, unlimited entry upgrades: [001] The Traveler and Kaguya-sama picture and text
“1997, 1998, 1999…2000!”
Afternoon.
Deep in the quiet bamboo forest.
The young man held a three-foot-long knife in his hand and repeated the chopping action with full concentration.
At one side, a little girl, about nine or ten years old, sat on a bamboo that had been laid horizontally, swinging her feet and counting for the young man.
When the number reached two thousand, she clapped her hands and praised with a smile: “Father is so awesome~”
“Can you speak a little more normally?”
The young man paused and said, “If someone didn’t know, they would think you were praising the child.”
“But you know, father, compared to the years I have experienced, you…”
The girl raised her hand and gestured with her index finger and thumb: “It’s just a child~”
“So you still remember this…”
Sheathing the knife, Si Chen looked at her speechlessly.
Kaguya of Mount Penglai.
This was the name of the girl in front of him.
As the daughter of the main god in the local mythology system, Kaguya was originally a princess living in the Moon Palace.
Because of violating the taboos of the Moon City.
She was sentenced to “exile” and came to the world on earth.
Although she looks like a young girl, her inner essence, as she herself said, is that of a fraction of a fraction of her age, who is much older than Si Chen.
As for why this old guy looks like this and why he calls him father.
All of this has to start with his time travel.
The so-called time traveler, as the name suggests, is a person who travels from one world to another.
Now that we have traveled through time, there is no need to talk about the past.
He only remembered that he stepped on empty air in his original world, and after experiencing an unknown amount of time of free fall, he came to this familiar yet strange world nine years ago.
During the free fall, some inexplicable substances flowing out of his body turned into a system of entries.
After landing, he didn’t take a few steps.
Si Chen discovered that there was a bamboo not far ahead, emitting a bright light like moonlight.
Although he was not sure where he was, it did not prevent him from realizing that this scene was definitely unusual.
So Si Chen’s first reaction was to turn around and leave.
Then he discovered that no matter which direction he chose, he would eventually return to the glowing bamboo.
Helplessly, he had to pick up a hatchet that was conveniently lost nearby.
He carefully broke the bamboo open, and Kaguya, who was still in her cradle, appeared before him.
This encounter process, which was full of a sense of déjà vu, coupled with the gold next to the swaddling clothes and the jade plaque with the five Chinese characters “Penglaishan Kaguya” engraved on it, made Si Chen realize what kind of world he had traveled to.
Oriental Fantasy Village!
To be precise, he came to a world called Touhou Project, hundreds of years before the prototype of Gensokyo appeared, and the story of The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter had just begun.
The original story is about an old couple who made a living by cutting bamboo and making tools. They discovered Kaguya-hime sealed in a bamboo and adopted her, which led to the subsequent stories.
Now the person who picked up Kaguya-hime has become him who traveled through time.
Unlike the old couple who really knew nothing, Si Chen knew the origins of Kaguya Houraisan.
And he had to pretend that he knew nothing about it like the old couple in the years after he adopted her, and pretend that she was just a little girl who was a little bit unusual…
To be honest, even if the goal was just to hide it from her, Si Chen didn’t have much confidence.
Not to mention that behind her, there is most likely a Moon Brain, Bayi Eirin, watching in secret.
Therefore, Si Chen decided to take advantage of the situation at that time when the two people did not seem to have any obvious ill will towards him and talk it out first.
He directly told Kaguya Houraiyama that he had heard of this name somewhere else before. She was the daughter of Tsukuyomi-no-Mikoto, one of the three noble sons of Takamagahara.
If she needs anything done by herself, she can ask directly.
He will try his best to satisfy her within his ability.
If not.
Then he could just leave and everyone would just pretend nothing happened today.
Kaguya Houraisan’s answer was somewhat beyond his expectations.
The exiled princess said that although she nominally had a “father” who was the main god, there was no father-daughter relationship between them.
Therefore, she hopes to experience what it is like to be a normal “father’s daughter” in the world above ground.
Si Chen: “…”
So a bamboo building named Yongyuan Pavilion was built deep in this sparsely populated bamboo forest.
“Are you not going to continue, Father?”
Seeing Si Chen put away his knife, Penglaishan Kaguya looked up at the sky and asked with some confusion.
Practicing sword skills has been Si Chen’s daily routine over the years.
After adopting her, whenever he went into the forest to cut bamboo, he would always find gold among the cut down bamboos.
He did not need to get up early and go to bed late to survive, and he asked the Sanuki Zoumaro couple who lived at the foot of the mountain to bring back some daily necessities that were difficult to make from Fujiwara-kyo, more than ten miles away. He could practice sword every day regardless of rain or shine.
Based on her understanding of Si Chen, with the weather being so nice today, it should not be the end yet.
“As a father, can’t you give yourself a break once in a while?”
Si Chen went over and pinched Kaguya’s face. His touch was as good as ever. “If the outside world wasn’t too dangerous, and I wasn’t born to win at the starting line like you guys, do you think I’m some kind of innate holy body?”
“I feel that you, my father, are better than 99.999% of the human beings in this world because you can always get something out of your efforts.”
Breaking free from Si Chen’s clutches, Kaguya rubbed her face with her small hands and complained.
Over the past nine years.
From the beginning, I couldn’t even imitate the appearance, but later I gradually mastered the posture of accumulating power and exerting strength, and then I understood how to use the knife correctly. Now, even with an ordinary knife, I can split stones and bricks…
As an ordinary person who has no Taoist master and no awakened spiritual power, the speed of improvement is astonishing.
What surprised Kaguya Houraisan even more was.
With the help of what he called the “golden finger”, Si Chen’s improvement really seemed to be in line with the saying “God rewards hard work” –
no pain no gain!
According to her observation, in his previous state of concentration, Si Chen seemed to be able to gain something from every swing of his sword.
This gain is not much, but please note that the key word here is not improvement, but… every time!
Nine years of training have allowed him to transform from an ordinary person who looked like he had never suffered much into the swordsman he is now who is capable of defeating minor demons and monsters.
What about ninety, nine hundred, nine thousand, or ninety thousand years?
The more you think about it, the more terrifying it is.jpg
“…That’s true.”
After “looking” at the prompt [[Basic Sword Skills (Lv.27)] Gain 1 experience point] in his mind, Si Chen nodded slightly.
For the past nine years, he had been able to stay patiently in the bamboo forest to practice swordplay. On the one hand, it was because he knew how dangerous the world outside was where demons and ghosts were rampant. Instead of going out to gamble his life, he might as well stay by Kaguya’s side and stay in her “safe zone.”
On the other hand, the existence of the system lets him know that his efforts will not be in vain.
“Let’s talk business first.”
Without discussing the previous topic with Kaguya, Si Chen asked, “When I swung the 1,997th sword just now, did you notice anything unusual on my body?”
“abnormal?”
Her slender and beautiful eyebrows wrinkled, and Kaguya Houraisan thought carefully and shook her head: “No.”
“Then…what about the one behind you?”
“Probably not.”
Kaguya Houraisan still gave a negative answer: “If there was any discovery, Eirin would have already contacted me when you asked that question.”
“That’s interesting…”
Si Chen muttered, his eyes falling on the panel hanging in front of him.

Chat group: People in Zongman, unlimited entry upgrades: [002] Group members’ identities and pictures
Super dimensional chat group!
As a person who had experienced the Internet era before traveling through time, Si Chen was naturally familiar with the concept of “chat group”.
Combined with the prefix “hyperdimensional”, it seems that the situation is “only visible to oneself, and outsiders cannot perceive it”.
He could also roughly guess the location of this chat group.
As for whether it is exactly what he thought…
You can only find out after you join the group.
I just don’t know which is better, this super-dimensional chat group or the entry system that comes with my own time travel…
Um?
Looking at the questions that appeared on the panel after he tentatively clicked “Yes” with his mind, Si Chen raised his eyebrows.
[Generating a chat group nickname based on your personal situation…][Error…Error…][Please enter the nickname you want to use in the chat group: ___]From this perspective, it seems that I am better?
After thinking about it, Si Chen filled in the words “ordinary people” on the blank line.
Before he traveled through time, he was just an ordinary citizen in an ordinary world. Although he activated a golden finger after traveling through time, after nine years, let alone raping the whole world, according to Kaguya, his current swordsmanship is probably only enough to bully ordinary low-level monsters.
If you encounter a mid-level monster or a low-level monster with innate abilities, it is considered a chance if you can fight to the death.
No matter how you look at it, the three words “ordinary person” are extremely suitable for him.
[Group reminder: Welcome new member “Ordinary People” to join the chat group]『Cancer of the Earth』: Wow, you’re a newcomer? Welcome~
Snake Princess: Welcome~
『Catwoman』: Why do I feel like you seem very excited, Chika?
“Ms. Avalon”: You haven’t seen enough. If you stay for a while longer, you will find that Qianhua-chan is so excited every time someone comes to the group.
『Cancer of the Earth』: Of course I’m excited. Every additional person means that our chat group has opened up a new world, right?
『Ms. Avalon』: You said that as if opening up the world would allow you to do something.
『Cancer of the Earth』: Gu~
In the classroom of Shuchiin Academy, after seeing the speech of “Ms. Avalon” in the group, the pink-haired girl nicknamed “Cancer of the Earth” fell limply on the table.
Stare~~~
The gaze from her best friend Kaguya Shinomiya next door made her sit up straight silently and quickly cheer up.
『Cancer of the Earth』: Although we can’t do anything at the moment, the future function of this chat group will definitely not be limited to “allowing us to communicate with each other”. This is what we unanimously agreed, right?
『Cancer of the Earth』: So of course the more people there are, the better!
“Ms. Avalon”: Then, old rules.
『Ms. Avalon』: Is the job of “welcoming new students” still left to you, Chika-chan?
“Ms. Avalon”: Looking at the nickname of this newcomer, it seems more appropriate for you to host the reception.
『Cancer of the Earth』: Ordinary people… I am finally not the only one [tears.jpg]『Cancer of the Earth』: Are there any newcomers? @Ordinary People
“Cancer of the Earth”: First of all, what you see before your eyes are not illusions, but don’t worry, they are also not illusions or abilities. To put it simply, this is a channel that allows us who are in different worlds to communicate with each other.
Snake Princess: …Maybe you are like me. You have never come into contact with the “chat tool” that you mentioned before, which is very similar to this chat group, so you are still observing in secret?
『Cancer of the Earth』: That’s difficult to deal with. We can only wait for the newcomers to slowly accept its existence before we can continue communicating.
『Cancer of the Earth』: I remember that sister Fubuki, who peeked at the screen the longest after joining the group, only showed up in the group for the first time half a month after joining, right?
『Ms. Avalon』: Seventeen days, to be exact.
“Blizzard of Hell”: …
『Cancer of the Earth』: Hey, Sister Fubuki, you are here too?
“Blizzard of Hell”: Well, I just dealt with a weirdo and was on my way back to the base. I had nothing to do, so I took a look at the group.
“Blizzard of Hell”: Looking at the previous chat records, is there a new person?
『Ms. Avalon』: Yes, it seems that he is a newcomer who is as cautious as you.
“Ordinary person”: Sorry, I just think it might be inappropriate for a newcomer to join in your conversation, so I’ll just watch for a while.
“Ordinary People”: Could anyone who is free explain to me the specific situation of this chat group?
『Ms. Avalon』: Chika-chan?
『Cancer of the Earth』: No problem, no problem, leave it to me.
『Cancer of the Earth』: Actually, you don’t have to be so polite, newcomer. Being chosen by this chat group among countless worlds is already a kind of fate. If you don’t mind, you can try to treat us as your friends.
『Ordinary People』: Friends?
『Cancer of the Earth』: Well, I just said that casually, don’t take it too seriously. Although we are getting along well at the moment, it still depends on whether we are compatible, right?
『Cancer of the Earth』: Well, let me first introduce you to the basic situation of everyone in the group.
『Cancer of the Earth』: First of all, this @Avalon lady, Miss Meili…
It’s really the chat group I thought of…
Combining the introduction of the enthusiastic group member “Cancer of the Earth” and the information he had seen on the Internet before traveling through time, Si Chen sorted them out one by one.
Cancer of the Earth, whose real name is Fujiwara Chika, is from the manga “Kaguya-sama: Love is War” and its derivative works. She is a natural black lady who can proudly claim the label of “the heroine of this work” in other people’s love comedies;
Lady Avalon, whose real name is Merly… or Merlin in the legend of King Arthur, is from TYPE-MOON’s “Fate series” and its derivative works. Judging from her avatar, she should be the one who first appeared in the light novel “Fate/Prototype Blue Silver Fragment”, and was later officially installed in the arcade version of FGO “Fate/Grand Order Arcade”. She also came to the FGO mobile game with the arcade linkage. According to the setting, she is a nightmare demon who looks kind but is actually unkind;
Snake Princess, whose real name is Boa Hancock, is from the manga “ONE PIECE” and its derivative works. She is the current emperor of the pirate nation Amazon Lily located on the Nine Snake Island in the Calm Belt, the leader of the Hydra Pirates, one of the former Seven Warlords of the Sea, and the most beautiful woman in the world. However, judging from her profile picture, she is estimated to be only twelve or thirteen years old, which is still a long way from the Nine Snake Empress in the original work.
Catwoman, whose real name is Selina Kyle, is from DC Comics. She is a thief who targets jewelry, cultural relics and other artworks, and has world-class stealing skills. However, she sometimes assists the righteous forces and is an anti-hero character who is both good and evil. Because American comics have gone through decades, each character is given a different character arc by each creator. Even with the introduction of Fujiwara Chika, it is difficult to confirm her origin in just a few words.
Hell’s Blizzard, whose real name is Blizzard, is from the comic “One Punch Man” and its derivative works. He is a hero who has awakened superpowers mainly based on telekinesis.
In addition to the five mentioned above, there is another group member, Ghost Spider, who has never shown up since Si Chen joined the group. Her real name is Gwen Stacy. She is from Marvel Comics and first appeared in “Edge of Spider-Verse”. She is the Spider-Woman who appeared in works such as “Spider-Gwen V1”, “Spider-Gwen V2” and “Spider-Apocalypse”.
【003】Group upgrade, new features (old version)
Merry, Boa Hancock, Selina Kyle, Fubuki, Gwen Stacy, and Chika Fujiwara herself.
After the introduction, the pink-haired girl asked in the group:
“Cancer of the Earth”: Everyone, I think I did not say any important information wrong, right?
『Ms. Avalon』: Probably no more, Chika-chan is awesome~
『Cancer of the Earth』: Hehe~
『Cancer of the Earth』: @Ordinary People, is there anything else you newcomers would like to know?
『Ordinary person』: Well…thank you for your previous explanation.
『Ordinary People』: Then, I looked back at the messages you sent after I joined the group. From what you and Miss Mary said, does this chat group currently only have the function of “allowing us in different worlds to communicate with each other”?
『Cancer of the Earth』: As an ordinary female high school student from an ordinary world, I understand why this question is asked. As for the answer…
『Cancer of the Earth』: Unfortunately, yes.
『Cancer of the Earth』: But this is not absolute, because in addition to daily communication, the chat group also has some small functions, such as signing in once a day, and each sign-in can earn 1 to 3 group points. The points earned from signing in can be put into red envelopes and sent to others…
“Cancer of the Earth”: Although we all speculate that when the chat group develops to a certain scale, the group points should have new uses, but as of now, nothing has been discovered.
“Ordinary People”: Okay.
Si Chen clicked on the function page with a little regret and shot something on the sign-in interface.
[Sign-in interface prompt: Group member “Ordinary Person” has signed in, points +3]3 o’clock, seems to be pretty good luck?
Just as he thought of this, he noticed a row of pinned notices on the dashboard—
[Group announcement: The total points of all group members is currently 10,0001 (≥100000), the current number of group members is 7 (≥5), all upgrade conditions have been met, and the chat group will be upgraded soon][Group announcement: Upgrade countdown – 3, 2, 1][Group announcement: Upgrade completed][Group announcement: The current Hyper Dimension Chat Group is at Level 2. The group function [Red Packet] has been upgraded. New functions are [File], [Live Broadcast], [Task], [Mall], and [Lottery]. The details of each function can be viewed on the function page.]『Ms. Avalon』:?
“Cancer of the Earth”:?
『Snake Princess』:?
“Blizzard of Hell”:?
『Catwoman』:?
『Ghost Spider』: ???
『Ghost Spider』: What’s going on?
『Cancer of the Earth』: Well… to put it simply, a new member joined our group, and after the new member signed in, it just met the prerequisites for upgrading the chat group, so the chat group was upgraded.
『Ghost Spider』: Awesome sisters @Ordinary People
『Ordinary People』: Well, I’m a man…
『Ghost Spider』: Uh (⊙o⊙)…
『Cancer of the Earth』: Huh?
『Ms. Avalon』: It’s okay, it’s not important. After all, we are just a super-dimensional chat group, not a super-dimensional female chat group. It’s better to say that the six people before me were all women, so we encountered the small probability of 3.125%, and now it has just been corrected.
“Ms. Avalon”: Compared to this, don’t you think that the newly opened new features are what we need to pay more attention to right now?
『Cancer of the Earth』: Yes, a new feature!
『Cancer of the Earth』: I already see the hope of becoming extraordinary beckoning to me!
The pink-haired girl immediately switched to the function interface of the chat group panel.
Just like her.
Several group members, including Si Chen, were the first to check out the changes brought about by the chat group upgrade.
The first is the group red envelope with upgraded functions.
The original group red envelopes can only be used to distribute or collect group points.
After upgrading, in addition to group points, group members can also put items into it, provided that the item is owned by you or is under your control.
Then there are the five new features.
The first item is group files.
Group members can upload text, pictures, and video information they have to the group file for public download by all group members, or designate one or several specific group members to view it.
The second item is group live broadcast.
Group members can start live broadcast and show the situation happening around them in real time to other members from the first or third perspective.
The limits of live broadcast shots from both perspectives depend on the limits of the person doing the live broadcast.
For example, in the first-person perspective, your eyesight determines the frame rate and clarity of the live broadcast image.
The picture from the third perspective depends on the combination of visual, auditory and other perceptions.
The third item is group tasks.
Group members can accept published tasks on this interface and receive rewards after completing them.
The fourth item is the group mall.
From the date this function is enabled, the group mall will refresh the items for sale every seven days, and the number of items is related to the number of group members.
Assuming the number of group members is N, the number of products is 2 to the power of N.
Currently, including Si Chen who just joined the group, there are a total of 7 people in the group, and the number of products refreshed each time is 128.
In addition to the official products sold in the chat group, group members can also upload their own products and set the selling price within the recommended price range of the group system.
This will of course not be refreshed every 7 days. As long as the seller does not take it off the shelf, it is equivalent to being permanent.
The last item is the group lottery.
You can participate in a lottery by spending 100 points. If you invest 1,000 points at a time, you will receive a free lottery draw, which means there will be a total of eleven draws.
Normal lotteries do not have a guaranteed minimum prize mechanism, but all group members will have a small guaranteed minimum prize when they make their first draw, which can ensure that they can draw items with a mall selling price of no less than 1,000 points.
[Group reminder: Group member ‘Ms. Avalon’ sent a designated red envelope to ‘ordinary people’]『Ordinary People』: Uh…?
“Ms. Avalon”: There are 100 points in the red envelope, which is just enough for you to make a basic lottery. I want to see what our guaranteed draw is.
Ms. Avalon: Don’t get me wrong, I loaned this to you in advance as a small token of my care for the “mascot”. Remember to return it to me when you have accumulated 100 points.
『Cancer of the Earth』: Mascot?
“Ms. Avalon”: This is something that has been passed down from ancient times in the ancient civilization of the East and carries people’s beautiful wishes. You should be familiar with this Qianhua-chan.
“Ms. Avalon”: Although from a rational point of view, even if the new guy didn’t join the group, we could upgrade the chat group if one more person, or two unlucky people signed in, but the fact is that it was the new guy’s sign-in that happened to allow the chat group to accumulate enough points required for the upgrade, right?
『Ordinary Man』: Thank you very much.
I know that this so-called mascot is probably just an excuse. The other party’s main purpose is to avoid embarrassment in the upcoming lucky draw → card-showing session. For the same reason, they also specifically stated that these 100 points are just a loan…
Si Chen thanked Meili and opened her designated red envelope.
Three things to do when reading: read, collect, and reward!
Turn on lazy reading mode
[004] Genetic lock, talent entries and ability entries (old version)
[You have earned 100 points]After getting the points, Si Chen switched to the lottery interface and directly “received” his guaranteed prize.
[Lottery interface prompt: Group member “Ordinary People” participated in 1 lottery and won “Potential Gene Lock” x 1]Potential gene lock…
Gene lock? ! ! !
Si Chen, who had not held much hope for this small guarantee of welfare nature, was shocked at the time.
You…you?
Is this how the guarantee works?
Click to receive it and confirm that it is indeed that [Gene Lock].
Si Chen quickly looked at the lottery interface to see other people’s gains.
Merry’s guaranteed bonus is a flintlock rifle with unlimited bullets, Fujiwara Chika’s guaranteed bonus is a green flower ring, Hancock’s guaranteed bonus is a pair of Sharingan, Fubuki’s guaranteed bonus is a Stand – Star Platinum, Gwen’s guaranteed bonus is a talisman – Weaver’s Song, and Selina’s guaranteed bonus is a set of Gantz_Auits enhanced clothes…
To be honest, they are all pretty good and deserve the name of “guaranteed minimum”.
Especially the infinite bullet effect on Merry’s flintlock rifle, which was achieved somehow, and Fubuki’s Stand, Star Platinum, which she didn’t know whether it could develop a five-second time stop, can both be called big explosions.
But compared with this outrageous thing called [Gene Lock]… I can only say that the gap is obvious by comparison.
Gene lock!
This is one of the core systems under the world view of the Infinite Horror series.
Because humans in this worldview are originally weak and ordinary, with weak bodies, difficulty in establishing additional circulation systems, no high-dimensional senses, and can only partially understand the rules of time and space through conversion formulas. Apart from the soul, which is still barely there, there is not much potential to be tapped.
“Ancient” paid a price and modified the rules, allowing humans to break the boundaries of life.
The first stage breaks through the limits of the human body and comprehensively improves combat intuition. The second stage completely realizes control over the body. The third stage initially strengthens the spirit, will, and soul. The fourth stage achieves unity of body and soul, masters the details, forms its own energy cycle, awakens and sublimates the light of the soul…
Not to mention the existence of the fifth-order gene lock, which is still under discussion, or the ten thousand saints who have reached the critical point of the high-stage fourth order but may not necessarily have a breakthrough.
An ordinary high-stage fourth-order gene lock also has the terrifying power to destroy an area of 100 miles in one blow!
[You have obtained a new entry——[Gene Lock (Gold)]]Seeing the feedback from the “plug-in”, Si Chen immediately looked into his mind.
“Gold… is it actually a talent entry?”
After seeing the information on the panel clearly, Si Chen was slightly stunned, but after thinking about it again, he realized that compared with ability, the nature of the gene lock was indeed more in line with the concept of “talent”.
He called out the detailed interface of the entry system.
——
【Concept and understanding (red)】
[So that you can understand all words, and your words can be understood by all]【Gene Lock (Gold)】
[Let you master the rules and gene lock][Basic Sword Skills (Lv.27丨22,4128/27,0000)][Basic sword techniques that mainly rely on chopping, but also include lifting, stabbing, and intercepting][Lv.10: Slash Strength +1][Lv.20: Slash Strength +2]This interface, which is so simple that it can even be described as crude, is the entry replication system that is transformed from those inexplicable things that flowed out of Si Chen’s body during his free fall.
The system is not intelligent and has only one basic auxiliary function. It will give prompts when an entry is obtained and will give feedback when an entry changes – such as when an ability entry gains experience. Apart from that, it has no other use.
There are two types of entries.
The first category is talent entries, which are divided into seven levels from low to high quality: white, green, blue, purple, orange, gold, and red.
White is the worst, red is the best.
Before obtaining the [Gene Lock (Gold)], Si Chen only had a [Concept·Understanding (Red)] which he obtained when he tried to communicate with Kaguya of Penglai Mountain. The effect was that it allowed him to understand all languages, and also allowed his language to be understood by all beings with whom he could communicate.
Relying on this entry.
Si Chen, who has been using Chinese all these years, has no problem communicating with locals like the Sanuki Zaomaro couple.
Hmm? You mean Kaguya?
It took this person three days to learn Chinese from Si Chen and communicate with him fluently in Chinese…
The second category of entries is ability entries.
This type of entry is somewhat similar to the “skills” in the game. After obtaining it, you can gain experience by brushing up on your proficiency. When the experience value is full, you can upgrade. For every 10 levels you reach, you can get an additional affix.
For example, [Basic Sword Skills], when upgraded to Lv.10 and Lv.20, is given a “Cut Strength +1” and “Cut Strength +2” affixes respectively.
The total 3 points of slashing strength allow him to chop off a bamboo with one blow even with a hand knife when necessary.
If you use normal knives, splitting bricks and stones is no problem.
In the words of Kaguya Houraisan, this means that one has already entered the realm of swordsmanship.
As for the origin of the term “basic sword technique”, it was when he was cutting bamboo during the construction of the Eternal Pavilion and had an inspiration.
After obtaining [Basic Sword Skills], Si Chen also thought about whether he could use a similar method to give himself some more entries such as [Basic Sword Skills] and [Basic Physical Skills].
After all, no one would complain about having too many of these permanent passive skills.
Unfortunately, after many attempts, I still had no idea where to start. In the end, I decided to just practice the basic sword skills I already had first.
That’s going off topic.
I admired with satisfaction the newly added golden light on the entry system panel.
As the saying goes, “One should never forget the person who dug the well when drinking water”, he also did not forget to return to the chat group to thank Mary for her help again, and promised to pay off the debt as soon as he accumulated the 100 points.
“Ms. Avalon”: It’s okay, it’s okay. There’s no need to be so anxious. You can pay it back when you have enough money.
『Ms. Avalon』: I have enough points at the moment.
『Ms. Avalon』:[Screenshot.jpg]
Catwoman: How much?
『Ghost Spider』: Hiss…More than 90,000 points?
『Cancer of the Earth』: It would be strange if Miss Mary didn’t have this number.
『Cancer of the Earth』: I joined the group as the second member about three years ago. I signed in every day without interruption, and my luck was average, with 2 points most of the time. So far, I have only accumulated more than 2,000 points. That is to say, those of you who joined the group after me will definitely not exceed this number, and the points required for the group to upgrade are 100,000…
『Catwoman』: Why can’t I escape the fate of being dazzled by rich people here…[Covering face.jpg]
“Blizzard of Hell”: From another perspective, this means that before you, Chika, joined the group, Miss Meili had been alone in the group for hundreds of years.
“Blizzard of Hell”: If she hadn’t signed in every day during this period, it would have been even longer.
『Snake Princess』:!
『Ghost Spider』: …Should I say that he is worthy of being the legendary wizard?
『Ms. Avalon』: Uh-huh
Feilu novel, Fei will make you look good!
【005】The Discovery of Fujiwara Chika (Old Version)
A few days later.
[Group reminder: Group member ‘Catwoman’ sent a designated red envelope to ‘ordinary people’]『Catwoman』: @Ordinary People, this is the last batch, please click, if I missed anything I will send it to you later.
『Ordinary people』: Okay, thank you for your help.
Si Chen, who was working on the renovation with Kaguya Penglaishan, received a notification of being @ed. He joined the group, replied, and opened the red envelope sent by Selina.
Come to the window.
Swoosh——
Several storage boxes filled with various daily necessities from the 21st century appeared in the open space outside the window.
“besides?”
Standing on tiptoe to look out, Kaguya Houraisan raised her eyebrows.
“This is the last batch. After I finish the ones inside the house, I will sort out the ones outside, and this wave will be finished.”
Reaching out his hands and picking up the girl, so that she could have a better view of the boxes stacked outside the house, Si Chen praised: “Thanks to your ability, otherwise the things we need to buy this time alone would have to be several times more, not to mention the subsequent maintenance…”
“Hehe, do you need me to tell you~”
Kaguya Houraisan raised her chin proudly.
She possesses the ability to control eternity and the moment.
Forever, means that she can make the time of something stay at a certain moment forever;
A moment refers to the moment when she can enter between the previous moment and the next moment, giving herself almost infinite time.
So after making a deal with Fubuki, Gwen and Selina using gold, he asked them to help purchase some supplies from their respective worlds.
After getting the things, the first thing Si Chen did was to ask Kaguya to give them a “forever” status.
The lamps that always stay bright and provide lighting even when the power cord is unplugged, the diesel generators that always work and do not need to be replenished, the sofas and carpets that never get dusty and dirty and can always stay clean…
All I can say is that the ability of the time system is indeed outrageous.
“Don’t just stand there, hurry up and finish the rest. I also want to try out those entertainment facilities you recommended that are from more than a thousand years in the future.”
Patting Si Chen’s shoulder, Kaguya Houraisan jumped out of his arms.
Walking barefoot on the blanket on the ground, the touch was much more comfortable than the original bamboo mat, and Her Royal Highness the Princess curled the corners of her mouth in pleasure.
After a busy period, the bamboo building returned to the moment a few days ago when most things inside remained in “eternity”.
As long as Kaguya Houraisan does not cancel her ability, the entire building can recover on its own even if it is knocked down.
This is the true meaning of why the bamboo building was named “Yongyuan Pavilion”.
“Huh~”
After letting out a long breath, Kaguya of Penglai Mountain gestured to Si Chen outside the door: “Do those outside need my help?”
“No, go back to the house and play, I can handle those myself.”
“Thank you for your hard work, father~”
Waving her hand, Kaguya Houraisan ran happily towards her room.
Si Chen put on his shoes at the entrance, went outside and began to organize items such as rice, flour, grain, oil, fruits, vegetables, condiments, facial tissues, etc.
Half an hour later.
What should be put in the utility room should be put in the utility room, and what should be sent to the basement should be sent to the basement.
Si Chen, who had cleared the courtyard in front of his door again, began his daily practice as usual.
One, two, three… fifty… one hundred…
Every time a serious attack is made, a prompt will be refreshed on the entry system panel: [[Basic Sword Skills (Lv.27)] Gain 1 experience point].
Although the potential of the gene lock had been drawn in the guaranteed draw on the day of joining the group, this potential human ability that can only be stimulated under a highly concentrated state of mind cannot be unlocked just by saying so.
Not to mention that if the gene lock system wants to fully exert its mechanism, it needs to be combined with other systems, and only after reaching the fourth stage and mastering it in detail can a true qualitative change be achieved.
Therefore, for now, the focus of his training still has to be swordsmanship.
Three hundred…three hundred and fifty…four hundred…
Is someone looking for me?
When calling up the group chat interface, Si Chen realized that he was not the only one being @ed this time.
『Cancer of the Earth』: @All members, I will post the pictures and you guys find the highlights.
“Cancer of the Earth”: [picture.jpg]『Snake Princess』: This is… Miss Meili?
Hancock was surprised when she saw the beautiful woman with white hair and purple eyes who was close to her in the selfie posted by Fujiwara Chika.
Snake Princess: How did you get there? Has Miss Meili developed magic that can summon people across worlds?
“Ms. Avalon”: Hey, hey, hey, you’re exaggerating. What you said is not magic, but witchcraft.
“Ms. Avalon”: No, magic is not that outrageous. After all, our “Root of Trouble” obviously has no effect on your world, nor on this chat group.
The root of trouble!
This is the “cause of everything” in her worldview and the starting point of many phenomena.
As the saying goes, where there is a cause, there is an effect.
In a sense, her world and its countless parallel worlds all flowed out and originated from the vortex of origin.
『Blizzard of Hell』: So how did you get there? @Earth Cancer
『Catwoman』: Same question.
『Ghost Spider』:[Observing in secret.jpg]
“Cancer of the Earth”: You will understand after taking a look at the group tasks~
After seeing her speech, Si Chen switched to the task interface and saw that a task named [Lost Teacup] was now posted on the originally empty page.
The task description is that Mary once had a beloved teacup, but she didn’t know where she lost it. She hopes someone can help her find the teacup and return it to her personally. If she completes the task, she will get a thank you from her.
Try clicking Accept.
The group system immediately popped up a prompt for him, saying “It has been detected that you and the mission target are not in the same world. Do you want to start teleporting immediately based on the world coordinates provided by the mission publisher?”
Um……
『Ghost Spider』: It’s a bug, right?
『Cancer of the Earth』: It is an officially recognized channel (Correction
『Cancer of the Earth』: You see, I am now at Miss Meili’s side, and the group system has not popped up any warning or prohibition messages, which means that the chat group may have just forgotten to remind us that the group task function can still be used in this way.
Ghost Spider: …
Catwoman: You called us all out here, not just to tell us about this discovery, right?
『Cancer of the Earth』: Well… I have an idea.
『Cancer of the Earth』: You see, before Mr. Si Chen, you were the most recent person to join the group. If I remember correctly, you have known us for more than five months.
『Cancer of the Earth』: There was no way before, but now that we have discovered that group tasks can be used in this way, can we make an appointment to get together offline?
『Catwoman』: I don’t care, why don’t you ask them?
『Ghost Spider』: I agree, I agree. I have long wanted to visit other worlds!
『Blizzard of Hell』: That’s fine with me, I’ll just think of it as a trip.
Snake Princess: +1
『Cancer of the Earth』: Okay… so, what about you, Mr. Si Chen?
『Ordinary People』: …And my share?
『Cancer of the Earth』: Of course. How can you leave one person out during a team building? Wouldn’t that be American-style bullying?
‘Catwoman’: American bullying?
Ghost Spider: I know that.
『Ghost Spider』: [We’re throwing a great party, all the big names are going to be there, but guess who’s not invited? ? You~~~.GIF]Catwoman: …
『Cancer of the Earth』: There is no need to worry at home. According to the test I conducted this time with Miss Meili, as long as there is no “interference item” in the original world, such as another group member, then when leaving the original world, you can enable an auxiliary option of “time-space gap”.
“Cancer of the Earth”: After turning on that auxiliary item, no matter how long we stay in other worlds, when we return to the original world, it will only be seamlessly connected to the next moment of leaving.
Although he has not revealed that the daughter of his family is Princess Kaguya from “The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter”, Si Chen has already mentioned this in the group.
[006] Minghong Knife, Unexpected Lock Picking (Old Version)
Fujiwara Chika has already said this much, so Si Chen naturally can’t refuse.
Not to mention.
In fact, he himself is quite interested in the group members who are both familiar and unfamiliar to him.
Of course, before leaving, although Fujiwara Chika had said that she could activate an auxiliary function called “Time and Space Gap” so that the time in this world would not pass during the time she was away.
He still knocked on Kaguya’s door and spoke to her first.
“The gap in time and space… sounds very similar to the ‘moment’ part of my ability.”
After hearing Si Chen’s words, Penglai Mountain Kaguya frowned: “Are you sure that those people you mentioned really have no subjective or objective ill will towards you, and will not cause you active or passive danger?”
“In theory, I think it’s fine.”
Si Chen thought about it seriously and replied, “But if something like ‘accident’ could really be predicted, it wouldn’t be called an ‘accident’, right?”
“…Then take this with you.”
Under Si Chen’s surprised gaze, Kaguya Penglai took out a wooden box more than one meter long from under the bed.
The lid of the box was opened, revealing a long sword with a sheath decorated with red cloud and bird patterns.
“This is one of Eirin’s collection. She said it fell from the sky and appeared in front of her when she traveled to the ancestral land of Shenzhou during the Age of Gods.”
After taking the knife out of the box, Kaguya Houraisan introduced it, “Later, on my birthday, she gave me this knife as a gift. Now I am giving it to you… I hope it can be of some help to you.”
As he spoke, he held the scabbard in one hand and the handle in the other.
She pulled the blade a little from its sheath.
Shining——
The sound made by the friction between the blade and the scabbard was not the ordinary sound of metal, but a clear sound like the chirping of a bird.
Take another look.
The blade, like the scabbard and handle, is engraved with fiery red cloud and bird patterns.
“This knife…?”
Looking back at the introduction of Kaguya Houraisan, Si Chen had a vague guess in his mind.
“The name of the sword is Minghong.”
After putting the half of the blade back into the sheath, Kaguya Houraisan handed the sword to Si Chen: “Be careful, father. Although I and Eirin were both its owners, this sword has never acknowledged us as its ‘masters’…”
It really is this!
Feeling the ultimate sword intent contained in the knife, Si Chen took a breath of cool air.
Minghong Sword!
Legend has it that the gods collected copper from Shou Mountain to forge the Xuanyuan Sword for Emperor Huangdi.
When the sword is completed, the remaining material cools at the bottom of the furnace and takes the shape of a blade.
Because its sword intent was too strong, the swordsmith wanted to destroy it with the Xuanyuan Sword, but he did not expect that the sword would turn into a red skylark, and disappeared into the clouds in a red color, hence the name “Ming Hong”.
In the world before he traveled through time, there was a record in the “Hanwu Dongmingji” written in the Later Han Dynasty that Minghong was the sword worn by the emperor, which was later untied and given to Dongfang Shuo.
And according to what Kaguya Houraisan just said, in this world, it seems that the Minghong Sword has been kept by Yagi Eirin since the ancient Age of Gods.
No matter what, it is certain that the Minghong Sword is a divine weapon that is comparable in status to the Holy Sword Xuanyuan.
“Those people you mentioned should still be preparing. Do you want to try it first?”
Kaguya Houraisan asked with great interest.
“certainly.”
Si Chen pondered and nodded.
The two men came out of the house. Si Chen closed his eyes and concentrated. After adjusting his condition to the best, he drew his sword and slashed at the bamboo forest in front of him.
Accompanied by a clear bird chirping.
The scarlet blade light flashed across the sky, cutting through all the bamboo, grass, sand, and even the air in its path, leaving behind a gully that stretched for hundreds of meters on the ground.
“With the level of this sword, even the high-level monsters on the ground are no match for you, father. Even those big monsters would not feel good if they were hit.”
Seeing Si Chen’s performance that exceeded her expectations, Her Royal Highness the Princess’ eyes lit up slightly.
The words of praise had just come out when Si Chen’s body shook, and his muscles twitched and spasmed at a amplitude visible to the naked eye.
“Eirin, you didn’t seem to tell me that this knife has such a serious backlash on the wielder.”
His figure flashed on the spot, and when he reappeared he was beside Si Chen. Kaguya Houraisan, who was supporting him, looked up.
“…It has nothing to do with me, and probably has nothing to do with Minghong either.”
A cold voice sounded in Kaguya’s mind through the secret technique: “According to my observation, it is more likely that he has some problem. Hmm… you can try to give him some energy. Coincidentally, didn’t he get a batch of high-energy foods such as white sugar these days?”
At this moment, Si Chen, who was supported by her, barely opened his mouth and uttered a few words: “Hui Ye… give me some candy.”
Without further ado, Kaguya Houraisan disappeared into the abyss.
The next moment, several large bags of sugar and boards of chocolate were brought in front of Si Chen.
After swallowing big gulps to make up for the deficiencies in his body, he felt that his muscles and skin were no longer as painful as before, and his internal organs were no longer spasming. Si Chen, whose breathing slowly calmed down, let out a long sigh and slowly put the Minghong Sword back into its sheath.
“How do you feel? Do you want me to ask Yonglin to come down and check your body?”
Kaguya Houraisan asked.
“…She can come down casually?”
“Of course not in principle, but as the main supervisor during the time I was exiled, if she came down once or twice under the pretext of ‘checking whether I’ve served my sentence well’, no one would be able to find fault with her.”
“No need for that.”
Si Chen shook his head: “What happened just now was within my expectations, but I didn’t expect it to happen so suddenly for the first time, and it happened to be when I was trying to hone my skills with the Minghong Sword, so I was caught off guard…”
Seeing that Hui Ye remained silent, Si Chen took her hand and placed it on his arm: “Do you feel it?”
“?”
“It has improved to a certain extent compared to before I swung that knife.”
“…When did you have the illusion that I knew everything about your body?”
Kaguya Houraisan looked at him speechlessly.
“Well, all right.”
Si Chen coughed lightly and said, “You should still remember the surprise I told you about a few days ago when you joined the group, right? That was the first stage of that thing. After unlocking it, it can awaken the fighting instinct dormant deep in my genes and slightly improve my physical fitness.
“The improvement in physical fitness will be retained in part permanently after the end.
“You’ve seen the price. Over-exploiting the body’s potential will have certain side effects. The first time is the most dangerous. As the number of unlocks increases, the body will gradually adapt to that state until it is fully mastered and can unlock without injury and indefinitely…”
【007】Gene Lock Level 1 (Old Version)
Gene lock level one!
Just as Si Chen introduced to Kaguya Penglaishan, this is the starting point of the gene lock system.
An old lady can lift a car to save her grandson, a cold iron bar can burn a hypnotized person, and a mother can run a hundred meters in five seconds to save her son from falling from a building…
These seemingly counterintuitive phenomena are the result of the rapid secretion of certain hormones similar to adrenaline in humans under certain circumstances.
In the infinite worldview, they are given another name – genetic locks.
After unlocking the first-order gene lock, by awakening the potential dormant in the body, humans can obtain a physical fitness improvement of 30% of the normal level, and the extreme burst can exceed the theoretical limit, and part of the improved effect can be permanently retained.
also.
The fighting instinct that allows the body to react to information even before the mind reacts, the extremely high ability to perceive danger and the degree of danger, the control power accurate to millimeters, the nerve reflex that is enough to see the trajectory of the bullet line…
These are the bonuses that the first-level gene lock can bring when it is unlocked.
in other words.
Even if you are a stay-at-home guy who never leaves your house and is in sub-health condition all year round, after unlocking the first-level gene lock, you can become a first-class fighter and kill multiple special forces soldiers with your bare hands.
If a warrior already has a certain foundation, he can be comparable to low-level extraordinary people without any other enhancements.
Because unlocking the genetic lock requires a highly concentrated mental state – the “simplest” thing is to face the danger to life and the fear of death like the reincarnations in the infinite series.
Si Chen, who knew that one only has one life and that everything is over after death, thought that even if he had obtained the potential of the genetic lock, he would be able to unlock it naturally through day-to-day practice over the next few months or even years.
Although he cannot compare to the reincarnations in the main god space, he can reach the fourth level, or even the middle or high level of the fourth level through a few horror movies.
But what about the reincarnations?
In this general trend, either become strong or die!
What about yourself?
Hold on to Kaguya’s thighs tightly. As long as you don’t commit suicide, you can probably live a few decades of peace at the very least.
If only we could find a way to escape the life limit of ordinary people.
From the present point in time until the official appearance of Eien-tei in Gensokyo, it will be more than a thousand years!
And with the entry system in my left hand and the super-dimensional chat group in my right hand, is it possible that I won’t be able to find a way to prolong my life in the next few decades?
Si Chen could only say that this probability might exist, but it was definitely not high.
Therefore, just like he was able to use nine years to hone his swordsmanship, he was also not in a hurry to progress with the gene lock.
Who would have thought.
Because of the Minghong Sword given by Kaguya of Penglai Mountain, he was so excited that he mobilized all his energy, spirit and soul to strike back, which actually directly stimulated the potential ability in his genes!
Double happiness is coming.
“Are you sure it’s okay?”
Kaguya Houraisan looked hesitantly at Si Chen, who seemed to have fully recovered from the side effects of the initial unlocking of the genetic lock.
“No problem… Yeah, probably.”
Si Chen himself was actually not very sure.
The reason why the reincarnations can unlock the first, second, third and even fourth level gene locks at such an exaggerated speed is certainly due to the arrangement of the main god or other high-level beings, which puts enough pressure on them.
On the other hand, every time they return to the main god space, they can consume reward points and ask the main god to give them a complete repair.
Otherwise, it is hard to say whether frequent unlocking of the gene lock before it is opened to the fourth level and the ability to adjust genes at a subtle level to adjust and optimize one’s own genes will cause any hidden dangers.
Take the side effects of the first-order gene lock as an example.
The reason why it is so difficult is that after unlocking the lock, the whole body will feel severe pain, which is often beyond the limit that ordinary people can bear. Secondly, obtaining strength beyond the limit means that the body will be extremely stressed in the process. If this deficit cannot be made up in time, it will be a bit difficult to deal with later. Thirdly, if you make a mistake in the unlocking process, it will lead to genetic collapse…
“I’d better ask Yonglin to find a reason to come down.”
Kaguya Houraisan made a direct decision: “If possible, you’d better postpone your gathering with those people, or just don’t attend it this time.”
“Don’t worry.”
Seeing her obviously overreacting, Si Chen, feeling a surge of warmth in his heart, squatted down and said seriously: “I may cherish my life more than you can imagine. If I really have a bad premonition, you don’t need to tell me, I will hold your legs and beg that person to save me.”
“Wow~”
Imagining in her mind the scene of Si Chen holding his legs and begging Yonglin for help, Her Royal Highness the Princess raised her eyebrows slightly.
…
A moment later.
Except for Si Chen, Fujiwara Chika and Meili, the other three had also made preparations before the time travel – which meant finding a place where there was no one around.
The six people accepted the task issued by Hancock to use the bug to travel through time.
The reason for choosing her place as the meeting place is simple.
For the party venue, the seven people all had the same requirement of “quiet” and “safe”, which means that they would not be disturbed during the party and would not bring any bad influence to the owner of the venue after the party.
As a result, the world of Fujiwara Chika, Gwen, and Selina, which had already entered the 21st century and could not provide a venue that could accommodate seven people for the time being, was excluded first.
Then, in the world of Fubuki, there have been frequent incidents of strange people in recent years. It is hard to guarantee that a strange guy will not pop up and spoil the fun in the middle of a party.
If Meili went over there, she would inevitably be discovered by the Root. If it was just the Root, it would be fine, but besides the Root, she might also be noticed by the Suppression Force or some beings with the highest level of clairvoyance like her, which would not be so nice.
Si Chen was just a new member who had been in the group for less than a week. His participation in this offline gathering was already a result of Fujiwara Chika using an unspoken tactic by everyone. It was impossible for the venue to be chosen in his world.
On the other hand, Hancock——
First of all, as far as she knew, there was no terrifying existence in her world like Mary, who could see everything in the world with the highest level of clairvoyance while hiding in a utopia;
Secondly, the kingdom where she came from, Amazon Lily, was located in the doldrums. Under this natural barrier, even the news birds delivering newspapers would not cross it, and it had been out of touch with the outside world for many years.
Again, Hancock is currently training on an uninhabited island northwest of Nine Snake Island. Apart from her, there are only ferocious beasts on the island that are intended to be attacked.
Is there any place more suitable for offline chat group gatherings than this?
【008】Magical Meat (Old Version)
Calm Belt, Ruskaina Island.
This is an island that experiences forty-eight seasons a year.
It is said that there was a kingdom on Ruskaina Island in ancient times. Unfortunately, humans at that time were ultimately defeated by nature, and now there are only huge and ferocious beasts on the island.
However, at this time, this uninhabited island, which even the nearby fighting nation the Nine Snakes were wary of, was surprisingly lively.
A pink-haired girl in a black dress, a white-haired nightmare in a gorgeous dress with white as the main color and blue-purple as the embellishment, and a black-haired young man with a sheathed long sword on his back…
Sitting around the campfire, seven people raised their wood-carved wine glasses and clinked them together.
“Cheers~!”×7
After taking a sip of juice, Fujiwara Chika put down the cup and used a knife to cut a piece of meat from the beast leg that was thicker than her and placed on the fire. She put it into her mouth and her eyes lit up immediately:
“It tastes a bit like beef, but the texture… is even better than A5 grade wagyu!”
“Of course, this is one of the two most delicious prey species I can hunt now, which I have confirmed after living on Ruskaina Island for more than a year.”
After hearing Fujiwara Chika’s praise, Hancock proudly took over the conversation, confirming that her preparations to welcome her friends were not in vain.
“It’s really good~”
The magic power gathered into a line, and with the hooked fingers, it cut a piece of meat from the beast’s leg. After tasting it, Meili also gave it a good review.
With their lead, Si Chen and others followed suit.
First bite.
The taste is really good, the outer layer is crispy and fragrant, the meat is tender and juicy, and the original flavor of the food combined with a few simple seasonings creates a miraculous and wonderful experience.
The second bite, the third bite…
Huh?
While eating, Si Chen suddenly stopped and looked at the meat in his hand with some surprise.
“So you, Brother Sichen, are the first one to discover the specialness of this meat?”
Noticing his reaction, Meili asked with a smile.
“…Haven’t you already discovered it?”
Si Chen raised his eyebrows and put the other half of the meat he had cut into his mouth.
“What do you mean, is there something wrong with this meat?”
Hearing the conversation between the two, Fujiwara Chika, Gwen, Selina and others who were also tasting barbecue were all stunned.
Hancock, the landlord, looked very unhappy. “Impossible! I’ve been eating this for so long and I don’t feel anything special!”
“Don’t get me wrong. The ‘special’ that Miss Meili and I just mentioned is probably not the same as the ‘special’ you understand.”
Si Chen quickly explained: “What I mean is that this meat seems to be digested faster than the meat in my world after being eaten.”
“Is there such a thing?”
Gwen cut off two or three pounds of roasted meat from the beast’s leg and quickly finished it. Then she stroked her belly which was barely rising or falling. “Hmm… seems to be true?”
“Are these two not the same species?”
Meili pointed to the unknown beast whose body was still intact next to the beast whose leg had been cut off, and asked Hancock, “Can I try this first?”
“I’ll be ready right away.”
Hancock jumped up, cut a piece of meat from the intact beast’s hind leg, and placed it on the campfire.
soon.
As the meat was shared, Mary came to a conclusion.
Why is it that in Hancock’s world, there are ordinary people who are similar to those in the other worlds, but as long as they persist in exercising, even if they only do simple training programs such as long-distance running, frog jumps, push-ups and sit-ups, they can quickly improve the gap in physical fitness with ordinary people?
The chat group had not been upgraded before, and the group members in other worlds only knew about this world when Hancock told them about it.
Everyone speculated that the environment in this world was more suitable for body training, and that most people had some talent for body training to a greater or lesser extent.
It seems now.
Talent is important, but the role played by this easily digestible meat in this world cannot be ignored.
“In other words, as long as we eat and practice here, we can quickly acquire physical fitness that is several or even dozens of times that of ordinary people?”
He was the only ordinary person in the super-dimensional chat group before Si Chen joined the group.
Fujiwara Chika grasped the key point at the first moment.
“Based on the average person in this world, I estimate that it shouldn’t be a big problem to improve by one or two times. To go any higher, you’ll need some talent to a certain extent.”
Meili said as a gleam flashed in her gorgeous purple eyes.
“Ms. Meili, believe me… let alone doubling it, even if it can only increase by 10% or 20%, it is already a great gain for ordinary people like us.”
Fujiwara Chika clasped her hands together and looked at Si Chen: “Are you right, Mr. Si Chen?”
“right.”
Si Chen nodded affirmatively.
“Wait, although the group system gave him this nickname, are you sure that someone who can discover the specialness of this meat after just a few bites can really be classified as an ‘ordinary person’ like you?”
Selina discovered the blind spot: “If that’s the case, I can sit at the same table with you. After all, my physical fitness has not yet reached the theoretical extreme value of the human body… at least in terms of strength, it’s still a little short.”
“…”
So the center of everyone’s attention naturally came to Si Chen.
“…Although my world also has gods, monsters, priests, shrine maidens and other extraordinary people who cultivate faith or spiritual power, when I joined the group, I was indeed just an ordinary person who had practiced swordsmanship for a few years.”
At this point, Si Chen paused and asked, “However, it has only been a few days. You should not have forgotten the lottery I held with the support of Miss Meili, right?”
“Gene lock?”
Fubuki recalled the information she had seen in the lottery interface prompt.
Si Chen nodded and said, “After unlocking the first stage, the gene lock can greatly improve the precision of my control over my body. And even if it is not unlocked like now, that precision will not completely disappear.”
Fujiwara Chika touched the ring on her hand.
This ancient ring, designed in the image of a large green flower, has the effect of increasing energy recovery speed.
This was what she got from the lottery.
Although this ring, which made me never feel tired after getting it, is also magical, compared with Si Chen’s gene lock…
Forget it, let’s not compare anymore.
【009】You don’t even want to give me a casual reply? (Old version)
Chat group: People in Zongman, unlimited upgrade of entries: [009] You are not even willing to give me a casual perfunctory reply? Picture and text
Turn envy into appetite.
Fujiwara Chika ate more than 100 kilograms of animal meat in one breath before she had to stop because the amount of food she consumed in a short period of time exceeded the limit that her body could absorb.
Except for Mary who only tried it briefly, the others were not far behind.
Less than an hour.
The two beasts, each about four or five meters tall, were completely dealt with.
“Phew~ So cool!”
Stretching her muscles and feeling the warmth all over her body from the strengthening effect of the beast meat, Selina said with satisfaction, “Hancock, put it on the shelf.”
“ah?”
Hancock was slightly stunned when she was named. She didn’t understand what she meant by putting it on the shelves.
“I say, when we return this time, let’s put some beast meat from your world on the shelves of the group mall.”
Selina elaborated: “It allows us to obtain a relatively good physical fitness through the zero-difficulty method of ‘eating’, and it also allows you to save some points for yourself, which is convenient for lottery draws, or when good things appear in the mall, you can directly take them. This is a win-win situation.”
“No, no, just tell me when you need anything.”
Hancock shook his head repeatedly. “Anyway, in the past year or so, apart from the small number of beasts that I ate myself, the rest were either fed to other beasts on the island or to the sea kings in the sea…”
“You can’t calculate this matter like this.”
Fujiwara Chika raised her index finger and shook it left and right twice: “Perhaps in your opinion, Hancock, it makes no difference whether the meat was discarded or given to us, but you also saw what happened just now.
“At present, except Miss Meili, everyone of us needs them, which is an objective fact.
“I once read a short story in a book about a man who gave some change to a beggar at his doorstep every day. Then one day he had to go out for something urgent and didn’t pay attention to this matter. The beggar grabbed him and asked him why he didn’t leave his money behind.
“Same reason.
“If you take the initiative to give out red envelopes to everyone because you are in a good mood or for some other reason, we will gladly accept it.
“But if we have long-term needs and keep asking you for free, even if it’s just a convenient thing for you, it’s bound to become a problem after a while.
“Also, the meat from your side has always been free. So if anyone needs something from another world in the future, should the members who provide those things charge a fee, or should they provide it for free like you do?
“Rather than letting these vested interests ruin our friendship, it’s better to separate ‘friendship’ and ‘interests’ from the beginning.”
“Uh… sorry, I didn’t think it through.”
After a brief thought, Hancock, who felt that what Fujiwara Chika said made more sense, suggested, “How about this? In the future, I will list the wild animals or other prey that I hunted on my own in the group mall, and you can buy them directly if you need them. At the same time, I will not cancel the mission that allows you to travel through time. You can take away the spoils of your own hunting.”
“Although there is still a possibility of being stuck with a bug, it should be enough for now.”
Meili took over and approved of the plan.
“That’s settled then.”
Hancock still trusts Mary, who, based on his observations over the past year since he joined the group, should be the wisest sister in the group.
Hearing her say this, a smile reappeared on little Hancock’s face.
The most important thing is agreed upon.
It was the first time we met offline, and the inevitable unfamiliarity between us was almost gone during the dinner.
Surrounding the beach at your feet, some want to bask in the sun, some want to enjoy the sea breeze, and some want to play around or chat in private, so they play around or chat in private.
Everyone quickly entered the state of tour group building.
Well… except for Si Chen, who just joined the group a few days ago and is not yet familiar with the others to the point where he can integrate perfectly regardless of gender differences.
I always feel that if I weren’t the “light bulb”, they would have more fun since they already have all the elements of “sunshine” and “beach”?
Si Chen smacked his lips.
“Wouldn’t you like to come over and join us?”
A cheerful voice suddenly sounded beside my ear: “I think Qianhua-chan specially called you here because she wanted to take advantage of this gathering to quickly eliminate the strangeness between you and us, rather than letting you just watch from afar.”
“?!”
Si Chen, who was frightened, looked at Mary who was having a water fight with Fujiwara Chika, Gwen and others on the beach, and then looked at Mary who appeared beside him at some point.
“Illusion, it’s magical, isn’t it~”
Meili poked Si Chen’s arm to show that her existence was not false.
Should we say that it is a skill that can make the whole team invincible for one round in the game?
“Could it be that those over there are just illusions created by your magic? In fact, they are standing in a circle and staring at me right now?”
Motioning to the people playing in the water, Si Chen asked half-jokingly.
“I’ve learned this. I’ll do it this way next time.”
Mary acted as if she was surprised.
“Don’t!”
Si Chen, who was not sure whether she was just saying it casually or really thought so, interrupted her quickly.
“Of course I’m just kidding~”
Meili chuckled and winked at him playfully: “You haven’t given me the answer to the first question yet.”
“…Based on the fact that the total number of words I have spoken to them in the group chat is less than a hundred, if this time is really over, they may not bluntly refuse, but the result will only make both parties uncomfortable, right?”
Si Chen was speechless.
“It seems so.”
Meili nodded: “So what are your plans next, just watching here like you are now?”
“To be honest, I want to go inside and take a look.”
Si Chen pointed to the endless forest to the side. According to Hancock, the deeper you go into the island, the more likely you are to encounter ferocious beasts. “Want to join us?”
“Is this… the legendary date invitation?!”
“No, I’m just afraid of death, and I want to get a bodyguard for free who can protect me when I’m in danger.”
“Eh~~~Is it so real?”
Meili’s eyes suddenly widened.
You won’t even give me a casual word?
[010] Spider Sense and Observation Haki (Old Version)
Chat group: People in Zongman, unlimited entry upgrades: [010] Spider sense and observation color domineering pictures and texts
The thick trees that two or three people holding hands cannot hug are just small saplings in the dense forest.
Si Chen, holding Minghong, walked slowly forward.
Every time he swung his arms, accompanied by the clear chirping of sparrows, a ferocious beast two or three stories tall would be cut in two by the scarlet sword light.
[[Basic Sword Skills (Lv. 29)] Gain 166 experience points]Perhaps it was the bonus brought by the divine sword Minghong, or perhaps it was the judgment of the entry system that the experience gained from fighting the enemy was higher than that gained by one person behind closed doors.
Of course, it is more likely to be a combination of both.
After entering the dense forest, although the state when swinging the sword was exactly the same as when he was practicing in the bamboo forest, the power of each blow was greatly increased, and it also brought Si Chen experience that would have required hundreds of times of practice to gain.
This efficiency is certainly inferior to the initial slash that Minghong made when he was excited and concentrated all his energy and spirit.
The gain from that strike was reflected in the entry system, which was a full 490,000 experience points. His [Basic Sword Skills], which was originally at Lv.27, soared directly to Lv.29, and the experience slot for upgrading from Lv.29 to Lv.30 was also more than halfway.
But now, this state where every swing of the sword can stably bring hundreds of experience points still makes Si Chen feel as comfortable as wearing plush pajamas in an air-conditioned room in the dog days of summer.
He dodged the pig’s sudden advance and swung his knife with his backhand. A streak of red light came out and he cut the more than ten-meter-tall wild boar into two pieces from the waist and abdomen.
After uploading the two and a half wild boars to the group mall and setting it to “visible only to myself”, Si Chen, who was very satisfied with the function of this backpack that had no weight, no consumption, unlimited space, and no passage of time, turned his head to look at his left shoulder.
A little girl named Mary, who was only about ten centimeters tall, was sitting on his shoulders.
“How far have I come out?”
He asked.
“If we divide the entire island into ten rings along the coastline, we have almost finished exploring the first outermost ring and are about to enter the second ring area.”
Little Meli waved the staff in her hand and projected a three-dimensional projection of Ruskaina Island in front of Si Chen. A line marked the path that Si Chen took after entering the jungle, and eight dots showed the specific coordinates of seven people, including the two Meli.
Si Chen nodded, confirmed the direction by comparing it with the projection of the island, and walked towards the coast where Fujiwara Chika and others were.
“Not going on?”
Floating from Si Chen’s shoulder, Meili returned to her normal size: “With the power of your knife, even if you can only exert a small part of it now, it should be able to support you to go deeper, right? If you are physically exhausted, I can give you some auxiliary magic. I am a professional in this area.”
“Let’s stop here for now. The speed of that wild boar just now has exceeded the limits of my dynamic vision and nerve reflex speed.”
Si Chen replied: “With the power of Minghong Sword, we can certainly go deeper, but the battle will probably be a matter of seconds to win or be defeated.”
Unlocking the first-order gene lock would allow him to keep up with the speed faster, but before accepting the physical examination of Bayi Eirin, he and Horaisan Kaguya had surprisingly consistent attitudes towards the gene lock –
Try not to use it if you can.
I can only say that they are all people who cherish their lives.
In fact, if Meli hadn’t come over today, knowing that with her by his side, his life would not be in danger, Si Chen would not have gone as deep into the island as he is now, even if he was craving for the meat in the One Piece world that was extremely beneficial for body training.
“It feels like if you were to appear in my era, there would only be two possibilities.”
Meili complained: “Either you live a dull life without anyone knowing you, or you suddenly pop out from a corner and take over your world without anyone knowing you.”
“You are really good at judging people.”
Si Chen gave her a thumbs up.
Back on the beach, Si Chen saw two figures fighting at a speed that was extremely fast for him at that moment.
One is Gwen, who has changed into a black and white spider suit, and the other is little Hancock, who is wearing a cheongsam with the slits going all the way to the legs for ease of combat.
Both sides seemed to be able to predict the future. They dodged each other’s attacks with great agility while not missing any opportunity to attack the other side.
Others watched from a safe area more than a hundred meters away.
“Mr. Si Chen, are you back?”
Seeing Si Chen approaching, Fujiwara Chika greeted him.
“What’s going on with these two?”
Si Chen looked at the group chat interface and didn’t find any useful information in the chat history of the past period of time, so he asked curiously.
“Well… it all started when we were splashing water on each other and we noticed that Hancock and Sister Gwen were always able to avoid sneak attacks from all angles. Out of curiosity, they wanted to see whose ‘intuition’ was better.”
While speaking, her gaze was still on the field where the two were fighting, and Fujiwara Chika’s eyes were full of amazement.
After being bitten by a radioactive spider, Gwen gained superhuman sensory abilities, allowing her to sense dangers around her that have not yet occurred.
Hancock’s observation Haki can make the five senses extremely sharp. It can be used to perceive attacks, predict the enemy’s next move, perceive the strength of creatures, perceive the emotions and thoughts of creatures, and perceive the position and number of objects outside the field of vision…
She already knew all this from past conversations.
Even when there was no group live broadcast function at the time, the two women had made relevant presentations by uploading short videos or GIF animations directly on the group chat interface.
But this did not affect her at all and she was still amazed when she saw the performance of these two people in real life.
Moreover, whether it is Gwen or Hancock, they are not just fast and sensitive.
The large and small sand pits around the two of them undoubtedly proved that they both had the terrifying power to make ordinary people skip the ICU and go directly into the ground with just one punch or one kick!
This is the first time that the girl named Fujiwara Chika, who comes from the ordinary world, faces the extraordinary so directly.
“It’s really amazing.”
Si Chen’s eyes fell on Hancock.
Gwen’s spider-sense, like her extraordinary strength, extraordinary speed, and extraordinary healing abilities, is a characteristic of Spider-Man that others can only envy.
According to a statement he had seen while surfing the Internet before traveling through time, the abilities of the Spider-Men in the Marvel Multiverse come from the spider totem, and only the chosen individuals can gain spider-related superpowers. In other words, the same mutant spider, if it bites Gwen, Gwen will become Spider-Woman, but if it bites someone else, that person will most likely die on the spot.
But in the world of One Piece, not even one in a million people may have Conqueror’s Haki. Hancock’s Observation Haki and Armament Haki are the basic skills of the strong.
Even the reason why the Nine Snakes Tribe, from which she was born, was called a fighting nation was because the warriors on the Nine Snake Island generally knew how to use their domineering aura flexibly.
I just don’t know if there are any restrictions on Haki, such as “exclusive talents of the natives of the One Piece world”…
[011] Ordinary people should just cheat honestly (old version)
“There shouldn’t be such a restriction…right?”
After a while.
After the battle with Gwen ended, the scarlet pupil with a magatama returned to normal.
After hearing Si Chen’s question, Hancock thought for a moment, returned to the place where he had lived for more than a year, took out two books, and handed them to Si Chen: “Why don’t you try practicing them first?”
“…Just give it to me like this?”
“The method of practicing domineering is not a big secret on Nine Snake Island. I asked my mother-in-law before if I could pass it on to others. She said that as long as the person is someone I trust, it’s fine.”
Hancock said, “In fact, I had already sent the contents of these two booklets to the group before you joined.”
Si Chen opened the booklet and took a look. The method of cultivation was not too complicated, so he looked at the professional.
“I think I can learn it.”
Meili said, “When Hancock used her Haki just now, I was also observing.
“Combined with the two booklets in your hand that I have read before, according to my guess, the domineering power of their world should be the product of the combination of individual beliefs, will, spiritual strength, life energy, etc.
“Faith, will, spirit, life…these are the most basic things for human beings.”
“Then why didn’t I practice it?”
Fujiwara Chika raised her hand and asked.
“…Not to mention that Haki itself is not a power that anyone can cultivate in this world. Even on the Nine Snake Island, which has inherited Haki, according to Hancock’s previous introduction, only qualified warriors can master it.”
Meili looked at the girl with a questioning look in her eyes: “Ask yourself, when you tried it before, did you really believe from the bottom of your heart that you could cultivate domineering aura?”
“Well……”
Fujiwara Chika smiled awkwardly.
Let’s be honest.
Although she envied the magical power of domineering, if she asked herself honestly, she was still skeptical about whether she could master it.
This obviously deviates from the key elements of domineering that Meili just mentioned – belief and will…
etc!
“So we can actually possess Haki?!”
Realizing this, the girl looked excitedly at the domineering training manual in Si Chen’s hand.
“Do you want to try Armament Haki first or Observation Haki first?”
Si Chen asked, holding a book in one hand.
“First… Armament Haki?”
After recalling the difference between Armament Haki and Observation Haki, Fujiwara Chika, who was not very confident in herself, chose the relatively less abstract one.
Compared to the manifestation of perception such as Observation Haki.
As expected, Armament Haki, an ability that is like an invisible armor that can enhance defense and attack power, seems more “realistic” to her.
“Together?”
After handing the training manual of Armament Haki to Fujiwara Chika, Si Chen, who was holding the training manual of Observation Haki, felt the gaze still on him – Selina seemed to be more interested in Observation Haki – and immediately opened his mouth to invite her.
“Let’s take a look together.”
Ms. Cat nodded.
The essence of Observation Haki is to sense “sound”, which is a super sense derived from the basic five senses when they become sharp to a certain degree.
Therefore, the first step in cultivating the ability to see and hear is to train your existing senses such as vision, hearing, smell, etc.
For example, blind yourself and have another person throw random objects at you at random frequencies and directions, and all you have to do is try to avoid them.
Looking at Selina, who had her eyes covered with a cloth and was dodging the water balls thrown from all directions by Mary’s magic, she still had the energy to do gymnastics-like movements.
Si Chen, who was soaked all over, just felt a sigh.
“Damn it, is this someone else’s child?”
Chika Fujiwara, whose training of Armament Haki was also not ideal and which was in sharp contrast to the “top student in the class” Gwen, came to the Observation Haki training field and muttered loudly when she saw Selina’s performance.
At this time, it had been nearly half a month since the group arrived at Ruskaina Island.
An auxiliary function called “Time and Space Gap” means they don’t need to worry about the passage of time in the original world. Attracted by the domineering system, everyone simply stayed here for a while.
Every day I eat animal meat that is extremely beneficial to the body, practice the basic skills of domineering power of the world’s strong men, and in my spare time I can deepen my relationship with my group friends. My life is fulfilling and comfortable.
According to the manual, the Nine Snakes Clan has accumulated and summarized experience over hundreds of years.
At this time, Selina, like Gwen who was practicing Armament Haki next door, was close to reaching the entry level in Observation Haki.
“Xiao Qianhua, I heard everything~”
Supporting herself on one foot and bending her body slightly, Selina made an elegant turn to avoid the water balls coming from three different directions. Then, she smiled and warned Fujiwara Chika who was licking her in front of her.
Then she was hit in the face by the fourth water ball that fell from the sky——
Observation Haki has a lot to do with psychology. Even a strong person who has already mastered Observation Haki needs to be in a relatively calm state to ensure its use. Once the emotions are too excited or they lose their rationality, it is normal for an experienced person to be unable to use Observation Haki, not to mention Selina, a newbie who has not yet started.
“Phew~ Stop for a moment.”
After steadying herself, Selina raised her hand and requested a timeout.
After untying the cloth covering her eyes, she came over and grabbed the pink-haired girl and started pinching and beating her face.
“Brother Sichen?”
The staff was raised slightly, and dozens of water balls rose from the sea under the traction of magic. Meili looked at Si Chen and asked him if he wanted to take over.
“…Wait a minute.”
Si Chen looked around and saw that the “domineering mentor” on the island was free after instructing Chuixue, so he went over and made a request to her.
“Let me let you experience the existence of domineering power for yourself?”
Hancock asked in confusion, “How do you feel?”
“You can start with the armament color first.”
Si Chen expressed his thoughts: “Can’t the Armament Haki be wrapped around and hardened, and put on the body like armor…”
Hancock nodded and raised an arm toward him.
Si Chen also stretched out his hand and carefully groped and stroked the invisible and tangible armor two or three millimeters away from Hancock’s skin.
A few minutes later.
[You have obtained a new entry——[Armament Haki (Lv. 1)]]【Armament Haki (Lv.1丨0/100)】
[One of the three colors of Haki, which transforms the power of faith, will, spirit, etc. into armor and wraps it around the body like armor. Its name is Armament Haki]【012】The Overlord Color of the Traveler (Old Version)
[You have obtained a new entry——[Observation Haki (Lv. 1)]][You have obtained a new entry——[Heroic Haki (Lv.1)]]After getting a good start with the Armament Haki, Si Chen also successfully obtained the other two of the three colors of Haki.
The way to obtain the Observation Haki entry is to let Hancock directly “scan” his body with Observation Haki.
When the seeing and hearing color is activated normally, the object being sensed generally will not notice anything.
After all, the essence of the color of seeing and hearing is the super sense derived from the keen five senses. After it is activated, it is as if you are seeing with your eyes and hearing with your ears.
You may only be aware of the gaze from behind when it strikes you, but what if someone is staring at you face to face?
Same reason.
The master of Observation Haki can also make the target realize that “I am paying attention to you”.
In that state where every pore of his body seemed to be being stared at, the entry system prompted him that the speed at which he gained Observation Haki was several points faster than Armament Haki.
As for the final domineering color, this is even faster.
Facing the impact of Hancock’s Domineering Haki head-on, he relied on the spiritual blessing of the Minghong Sword to prevent himself from fainting instantly from the impact of the Domineering Haki.
Then, an aura even more powerful than Hancock’s domineering color burst out from his body.
[[Heroic Haki (Lv. 1)] Gain 1 experience point]【……】
[[Heroic Haki (Lv. 1)] The current level has reached the maximum experience value, and can be upgraded to a higher level][[Conqueror Haki (Lv.1)] has been upgraded to [Conqueror Haki (Lv.2)]][[Conqueror Haki (Lv.9)] has been upgraded to [Conqueror Haki (Lv.10)]][[Heroic Haki (Lv.10)] Gained additional effect: Haki intensity +1][[Conqueror Haki (Lv.59)] has been upgraded to [Conqueror Haki (Lv.60)]][[Conqueror’s Haki (Lv. 60)] Gained additional effect: Conqueror’s Haki strength +6]“You…you?”
Fujiwara Chika, who was holding up the shield held up by Meili and had avoided falling to the ground under the two consecutive attacks of domineering color, looked at Si Chen as if he were a god.
Before Hancock released the Conqueror’s Haki, Si Chen had already told him how he mastered the Armament Haki and Observation Haki.
Plus the domineering color at this time…
Could this be the correct way to practice domineering?
“You can try Armament Haki and Observation Haki, but forget about Conqueror Haki.”
Mary, who knew what she was thinking without asking, reminded her, “With your current mental strength, even Hancock’s Dominant Haki can make you fall asleep immediately.”
“…Am I such a suicidal person in your eyes, Miss Meili?”
Fujiwara Chika looked at Meili speechlessly.
“Of course not, I’m just giving you a heads-up.”
Mary smiled and touched her little head.
“If there is no such shield, how strong is the domineering color he just released?”
Fubuki, who was also under Meili’s protection, asked curiously.
“Well…”
Meili raised her hand and waved it. The magic light spots gathered into a miniature of Ruskaina Island, and then the image was enlarged little by little under her control. It can be seen that in the center of the island, those giant beasts that were dozens of meters high and as big as mountains have fallen down.
“That’s about it. Right now, we are the only conscious beings on this island and the surrounding waters.”
After showing the situation on the island, Meli switched her perspective to the sea, aiming at the same schools of fish and sea monsters that were flipping in groups.
Fubuki: “…”
The reason why Si Chen’s Domineering Haki can directly rise to Lv.60 the moment of awakening is actually not complicated.
As we all know, unlike Armament Haki and Observation Haki, after awakening, it can be improved through practice.
The strength of the Conqueror’s Haki depends only on one’s own courage.
As a traveler who traveled to a world he was familiar with, he activated the entry system as a golden finger at the beginning. In the following time, the word “stability” was put first, and he basically did not encounter any unexpected situations.
The only accident was when he joined a hyper-dimensional chat group that allowed him to unlock more worlds.
Although he has always been amiable in dealing with people, to say that under such smooth sailing, he, who traveled through time with a cheat, would not have any sense of superiority deep in his heart… This is obviously overestimating his state of mind.
When this extraordinary mentality is aroused by the awakened domineering aura, a large amount of experience points will be instantly recorded in the entry system, and there will be prompts for the increase in the level of domineering aura.
“It still doesn’t work…”
He first looked for Hancock, hoping to learn from Si Chen and get an Armament Haki or Observation Haki by “letting the body remember”, but failed. Then he looked for Si Chen again, but failed again. Fujiwara Chika sighed.
“It would be strange if it could succeed, right?”
Selina shrugged her shoulders and said, “If this method really works, given the Nine Snakes’ understanding of domineering, how could it be that the training manuals we have been reading recently did not mention it at all?”
The only reason Si Chen could succeed is that he is a special person.
“I know that, but before I get confirmation, I still have a little hope.”
Fujiwara Chika raised her hand and gestured.
Selina: “…”
really!
“Alas, it’s still a little bit off.”
Gwen, who was on the verge of mastering Armament Haki two days ago, also failed to break through that barrier with the help of Hancock or Si Chen. So after a brief hesitation, she asked, “Now that it has been confirmed that people in other worlds can also cultivate Haki, what do you think, if we return to our own world, can we still cultivate Haki from scratch there?”
“Are you going back?”
Hearing the hidden meaning in her words, Fujiwara Chika asked in confusion: “Why don’t you master the Armament Haki first… why are you looking at me like that?”
“According to the training manual, in my current state, I may be able to master Armament Haki in the next second, or it may take three to five months for me to break through naturally.”
Gwen first answered Fujiwara Chika’s previous question, and then said, “Although there is a ‘space-time gap’, even if we stay here for another three to five years, we can return to our original world and seamlessly connect to the moment we left, but are you sure it’s okay for the two of us to stay here for another three to five years?”
“hiss–!”
Fujiwara Chika was stunned for a moment, then took a breath after she realized what was happening.
Among the six group members who came to this world.
You can just put a question mark in the column of Mary’s age. Unless she wants, the passage of time will not leave any trace on her.
Si Chen, Chuixue, and Selina are all adults. If they pay a little attention to maintenance, even if their appearance changes a little in a few years, it won’t be too outrageous.
But she and Gwen, as high school students, are at the age where they need to grow.
If I stay here for a few months…hiss!
【013】New discoveries of old entries, listening to the sounds of all things (old version)
Chat group: People in Zongman, unlimited upgrade of entries: [013] New discoveries of old entries, listening to the voices of all things, pictures and texts
Not wanting to attract unnecessary attention due to their physical changes after returning, Fujiwara Chika and Gwen said goodbye to the rest of the people.
Send the two little girls away.
The rest of the people exchanged glances and understood each other’s intentions.
“Are you all leaving?”
Although he was a little reluctant, Hancock, as the landlord, still took the initiative to ask.
“Well…why don’t we just stop here for now?”
Fubuki took over the conversation: “Originally I just wanted to meet everyone in real life, get to know each other, and have a meal together at most. Before I knew it, it’s been almost half a month.”
“Too.”
Hancock nodded.
So, it was just like when Fujiwara Chika and Gwen left.
Fubuki, Selina, Si Chen, and Meili, the figures of the four people disappeared from her sight one after another.
Standing alone on the beach which was bustling just a moment ago, Hancock pursed her lips as she could vaguely see everyone practicing together or having a feast around the campfire.
Then she received a notification that her long-term task posted on the task interface had been accepted.
Not one, but two.
“you……?”
Looking at Si Chen and Mei Li who had just left for a short while and reappeared, the little girl’s face was half expectant and half surprised.
“Didn’t I just obtain Armament Haki and Observation Haki? According to the experience summarized by your Nine Snakes, now is the time to familiarize and master them through a large number of battles. Fortunately, there are enough beasts on this island that can serve as opponents.”
Si Chen gave some of the reasons why he came back: “Do you mind if I bother you for a while?”
“Of course I don’t mind, you’re welcome~!”
Hancock responded cheerfully, and then looked at the other figure who had also gone and returned: “Ms. Mary…”
“Don’t get me wrong, I just think the season these days is just right for enjoying the breeze at the beach.”
Meili snapped her fingers, and a beach chair and a large parasol appeared out of thin air.
At the same time as she changed from the gorgeous dress that could be called a formal gown or a magic robe into a cool swimsuit, the staff in her hand also turned into a white parasol with lace edging.
Wait until Si Chen really leaves Ruskaina Island.
On the entry system panel, the levels of Armament Haki and Observation Haki have been raised from Lv.1 when they were first obtained to Lv.24 and Lv.36 respectively.
That’s right, it’s Level 36 Observation Haki!
The speed at which Armament Haki increases is average.
With the support of the two additional attributes “Armament Haki Strength +1” at Lv.10 and “Armament Haki Strength +2” at Lv.20, according to Hancock, his Armament Haki is already comparable to the elite warriors on the Nine Snakes Island, which means that on land he can be a national warrior of Amazon Lily, and at sea he can be a full member of the Nine Snakes Pirates.
As for why the Observation Haki, which was “realized” together with the Armament Haki, can be improved so quickly.
This brings us to a term that has always been somewhat neglected by Si Chen.
【Concept·Understanding (Red)】!
This was a term he acquired shortly after landing. Its effect was that he could understand all languages and his language could be understood by everything.
The convenience of no communication barriers as long as they can communicate is also great.
But I have to say, in fact, in the more than nine years since obtaining this entry, Si Chen has wondered more than once whether its actual effect is a bit unworthy of its red grade.
After joining the hyper-dimensional chat group, I have even more doubts.
The same universal translation is only basic and passive in the chat group. If you take a photo and upload it to the group, the group system can even translate the text for you.
The gene locks, which are the core system of the Infinite Horror series, are only golden entries. How do you display them in red?
Knowing that he has mastered the Observation Haki!
When Si Chen first released his Observation Haki, he discovered that in addition to the basics of Observation Haki—that is, sensing the breath, emotions, superficial thoughts, and strength of surrounding creatures, as well as sensing the position and number of objects outside his field of vision…
I seemed to sense something else.
During the subsequent exploration, he gradually came to his senses.
It turned out that after he activated the “super sense” of Observation Haki, he “heard” some “sounds” that were originally inaudible with the basic five senses!
So that you can understand all words, and your words can be understood by all.
This is what this annotation means!
Si Chen is not very clear about the difference between this ability to listen to the sounds of all things derived from [Concept·Understanding (Red)] + [Observation Haki] and the ability to listen to the sounds of all things of the Pirate King Gol D. Roger who opened the Great Pirate Era in the One Piece world.
He only knew that soon after he realized this, he obtained a new entry –
[Swordsman (Blue)][It enables you to strike with a blow worthy of being called a “Swordsman” on the sea.]What is a swordsman?
Feel the breath of all things. Ordinary swords can cut steel and iron, and flying slashes can cut the enemy apart from hundreds of meters away…
This also allowed Si Chen’s basic swordsmanship to be raised from Lv.29 when he left Eternal Pavilion to Lv.35 when he returned to Eternal Pavilion.
Don’t ask why the swordsman’s entry can increase the experience of basic swordsmanship. The reason is that those who care about these details are all ⑨!
“Kaguya…long time no see~”
The improvement of strength will naturally bring happiness to your mood.
Returning to the courtyard in front of the bamboo building, Si Chen smiled and greeted the familiar face he hadn’t seen for a long time.
“haven’t seen you for a long time.”
Kaguya Houraisan nodded, responded to Si Chen’s greeting, and corrected him, “Perhaps a long time has passed for you, father, but I must say that from my perspective, I just said ‘Bon voyage’ to you.”
“Okay, it was my oversight.”
Noticing that the other person’s gaze on him was a bit scrutinizing, Si Chen turned around and asked, “Did you find anything?”
“Um… Father, did you come back once just now?”
On the way to submitting the previous time-travel mission and accepting the long-term mission to return to Ruskaina Island, Si Chen, who had indeed returned here briefly, nodded.
“That’s fine.”
Kaguya Houraiyama shared her observations: “Although it is somewhat similar in form to the moment when I escaped into the cracks in time, the chat group you joined, father, is obviously more sophisticated than me in terms of time and space, and perhaps other rules.
“If your standing posture was not slightly different from before, I would not even have noticed that you had left.”
At this point, she paused and said, “However, if I could discover anything unusual, it would be a big problem.”
“Let’s go. I’ll go back to the house and take a shower, and then I’ll come and tell you about what happened this time.”
Si Chen smiled, took the little hand handed to him by Her Royal Highness the Princess, and two figures, one big and one small, walked side by side up the stairs in front of the bamboo building.
[014] Strength and Strength Seed, the Arrival of Yagi Eirin (Old Version)
Chat group: People in Zongman, unlimited upgrade of entries: [014] Power and Power Seed, the arrival of Eight Senses Eirin pictures and texts
A moment later, in the girl’s boudoir.
Si Chen, who had already changed into clean clothes, told Kaguya Penglaishan about his experience of this trip.
From the dinner party at the beginning, I discovered that the meat in that world had a miraculous effect on body training. Later, after Meili confirmed that visitors from other worlds should also be able to cultivate domineering power, I switched to the domineering power training class. After more than ten days of wasting time, I found that the entry system was still the best…
“Is this Armament Haki?”
Putting her small hand on Si Chen’s arm that was hardened by the Armament Haki, feeling the invisible but tangible armor, Kaguya Houraiyama asked curiously, “Since you can gain Haki through ‘feeling’, father, then it stands to reason that powers like spiritual power can also be gained in this way, right?”
“You’re not the first person to think this way.”
Not even the second one.
The first and second people to come up with this idea were Si Chen and Meili who returned to Ruskaina Island.
In the Type-Moon world, if magicians after the Age of Gods want to use magic, they need to use the Small Source (Od) or the Big Source (Mana) as the driving force and appeal to the foundation of the world to trigger any phenomenon that may occur in this world.
The base refers to the basic environment.
If the magic class is compared to an executable program, then the base is equivalent to the program dependencies.
The macros edited for game A will have no effect when imported into game B. Therefore, unless a magician has already gotten rid of the traditional “path dependence” – such as Mary, there is a great probability that he will turn into a Muggle in seconds when he leaves the original world.
But the driving force behind the magic is different.
Mana is the life force of the outside world, or to put it in a more figurative way, it is the life force of the planet and the atmosphere.
The Od is the magician’s own life force, or it can be said to be the individual’s life force.
The vitality of ordinary people can also be used as a small source. This is why some magicians or other mysterious beings turn their attention to ordinary people when their own magic power is insufficient.
Therefore, in theory, as long as you master the corresponding methods.
Just like Haki, which is based on the power of will, belief, spirit, etc., can be understood by the natives of non-One Piece worlds.
People outside the Type-Moon world should also be able to extract magic from their own life force.
“Looking at your expression, father, the result of your attempt was not ideal?”
“Rather than saying that the result of the attempt was not ideal, it’s more like having a guess that has not been confirmed by sufficient evidence?”
Si Chen, who indeed failed to unlock the “magic” entry with the help of Meili, talked about their guesses.
During the time when the two returned to Ruskaina Island to accompany Hancock.
Gwen finally succeeded in comprehending Armament Haki, and then with the help of her already outrageous spider-sense, she quickly and successfully mastered Observation Haki.
Selina and Fubuki also successively realized the Observation Haki.
And these three people, without exception, broke through the final barrier on that island when they returned to Ruskaina.
Based on this fact, Si Chen, Mei Li, and other people in the group came up with this kind of speculation –
Although domineering power, magic power and the like are derived from the power of individual will, belief and vitality, there is no restriction that “non-natives of this world cannot master them”. After obtaining them, they can be brought to other worlds for use, and even continue to be practiced and become stronger in other worlds.
But the original “ability seed” can perhaps only be obtained in the corresponding world?
“Are these rules exclusive to that world?”
Kaguya Houraisan murmured, “It does sound reasonable. When Eirin comes later, we can ask her what she thinks.”
Si Chen felt as if he had heard something subtle: “Coming so quickly?”
“Don’t underestimate the bond between me and Eirin~”
Her Royal Highness the Princess raised her chin proudly.
The speed at which Yagi Eirin arrived was even faster than Kaguya Houraisan had expected.
After receiving the message she sent through secret techniques, Kaguya pulled Si Chen out to answer it.
As soon as they walked out of the main building and into the courtyard, they saw a woman in a half-red, half-blue short-sleeved dress, with delicate features and long silver hair braided into a big pigtail at the back of her head. She appeared in front of them in a way that could be described as “abrupt”.
“I thought that during my absence, Yue Zhidu had developed something new that could allow people to quickly cross the hundreds of thousands of miles between the earth and the moon. I didn’t expect it to be her…”
The way the silver-haired woman, Bayi Eirin, appeared was obviously not unfamiliar to Horaisan Kaguya: “Eirin, how did you convince her to send you down to see me?”
“I told her that you were not behaving yourself down there, and asked her to send me down to punish you.”
“She believes this?!”
Kaguya of Penglai Mountain was startled.
“Why don’t you believe it?”
Bayei Eirin nodded.
“Tsk!”
Curling her lips, Kaguya of Penglai Mountain gestured to Si Chen beside her and said, “Father, let me introduce you to this person. This is the Yonglin I told you about before. She is also my only friend in Yuedu.”
After that, she introduced Si Chen to Bayi Yonglin: “Yonglin, this is my father.”
“Nice to meet you… I’ve heard a lot about you.”
Si Chen nodded slightly and greeted him.
“I should thank you for taking care of Her Royal Highness the Princess over the years.”
Looking at Kaguya Houraisan who was standing obediently beside Si Chen, a smile appeared on Bayi Eirin’s face, and she also nodded slightly to Si Chen.
No one knows the little princess she has watched grow up better than her.
Although Kaguya’s performance at this moment still has a bit of acting in it.
But compared to the time in the Moon City, that happiness was definitely from the heart.
“Okay, okay, stop standing here and let’s talk inside.”
He coughed lightly, interrupting the eye contact between Si Chen and Bayi Yonglin.
Kaguya Houraisan trotted over to Bayi Eirin and pulled her towards the bamboo building: “It’s a good opportunity to show you where I live now. Although it’s not as big as the one in the Moon City, it definitely better fits the concept of ‘home’ you told me before…”
【015】Magic——The World in a Pot (Old Version)
That night.
It was originally used to store sundries, but after being cleaned up, it was converted into Bayi Eirin’s bedroom.
Although it was originally a storage room, when the Eternal Pavilion was built, it was designed according to the layout of a normal room. However, because Si Chen and Kaguya Houraisan had few friends here, over time the guest room was filled with all kinds of miscellaneous things.
At this time, the sliding door leading to the balcony was opened.
Under the cool moonlight, friends who had not seen each other for nine years since Kaguya was exiled from Mount Penglai sat on both sides of a low table, chatting.
“As expected, he still looks so lifeless…”
After listening to Yagi Eirin talk about the changes in the Moon City during the nine years of her exile, the summary is that there has been no change. Houraisan Kaguya shook her head speechlessly: “Sometimes I even wonder if in another thousand or two thousand years, when humans on Earth have the ability to land on the moon, the Moon City will still remain the same under the wise governance of my ‘father’.”
“It’s not entirely her fault… She was lucky to be able to preserve that piece of pure land against the tide of the times. She saw the fate of the demise of the Age of Gods in advance and made arrangements on the moon before the moon gods of other myths could react.”
Bayei Eirin sighed and defended his friend on the moon.
As for the stark contrast between Kaguya calling her “Father” and calling Sichen “Father”…
After Kaguya was adopted, Bayi Eirin, who often observed the lives of father and daughter in the Moon City, really couldn’t find any fault with Si Chen.
Although their relationship started with an agreement.
But over the years, he has been really good to Kaguya.
Otherwise, when they first met in the daytime, her first words to Si Chen would not be to thank Si Chen for taking care of Kaguya.
On the other hand, the one in the Moon City…
When Kaguya was born, her entire being was almost assimilated by the concept of the moon. The reason why Kaguya was created was to use her as a tool to break the impasse.
Can you expect a divine being to have any feelings for tools?
If there really were such abundant humanity, Kaguya, Toyohime, and Yorihime wouldn’t have been born.
You reap what you sow.
Therefore, regarding Kaguya’s different treatment, Yagi Eirin pretended not to hear.
“Tell me about your story.”
She turned the conversation back to Kaguya: “You seem to be getting more and more used to life on the ground?”
“Isn’t it good?”
Kaguya Houraisan smiled and asked back, “Besides, this is also the result you wish to see, Eirin.
“I have thought back over the years. The reason why I was exiled was because I felt that the world on earth was more interesting than the moon. But if it weren’t for your help, Yonglin, and considering the Moon City’s attitude towards the world on earth, I would have no chance to develop an interest in it, right?”
“Who knows?”
Bayi Yonglin did not comment.
“Okay, let’s skip this topic then.”
Bayi Eirin avoided answering, and Penglaishan Kaguya was not annoyed. She pointed in the direction of Sichen’s room and said, “From tomorrow on, my father will be entrusted to you, Eirin.”
“If there is really something hidden in his body, I will do my best.”
This time, Bayi Yonglin agreed directly.
The next day.
Under the guidance of Kaguya Houraisan, Si Chen came to Bayi Eirin’s room.
“Tell me the basics of your ability first.”
Bayi Yonglin said, “You can skip some information that you feel uncomfortable to disclose, but you must explain clearly why you are worried that using it may cause you risks, and what the risks are.”
“I’ll try my best.”
Si Chen cleared his throat and started with the concept of gene lock.
Unlock your obsession and release your potential.
While awakening the power dormant deep within the genes, the price is that frequent unlocking may lead to genetic collapse.
After listening to Si Chen’s introduction, Bayi Yonglin pondered for a moment, and then asked him a few questions that he felt were not very clear after listening to his story just now.
Si Chen answered them one by one.
After the Q&A session, Bayi Yonglin sorted out his thoughts and had a general direction in mind.
Of course, direction alone is definitely not enough.
“Don’t resist… I need to give you a thorough examination first.”
As she spoke, she made a seal with her hands.
A bright moon rose into the sky, and its bright light fell on him. Si Chen immediately felt a sense of pulling.
With Bayi Yonglin’s reminder just now, he did not resist.
The next moment, he found himself coming from the indoor room to the outdoor courtyard.
However, it was not the courtyard of Yongyuan Pavilion, but a bamboo and wooden building with an overall ancient style.
Time is no longer daytime.
Looking up, you can see a brilliant Milky Way hanging high in the sky, and a moon exactly the same as the full moon that just rose from Bayi Yonglin’s hand, surrounded by stars.
“This is Yonglin’s technique, the world in a pot.”
Kaguya Houraisan introduced: “Those who master this technique can open up a space that can be carried with them. If you understand the technique deeply enough, you can even carry another world with you like Eirin!”
“…Amazing!”
Although through Bayi Eirin’s spell cards “Tenmaru·The World in the Pot” and “Medicine Talisman·The Great Milky Way in the Pot”, we can guess that she is very likely to have mastered this magical power that can be compared with the universe in the sleeve.
But the fact that she could achieve this extent was really beyond Si Chen’s expectations.
“Don’t listen to her nonsense.”
Bayei Eirin looked at Kaguya, who had introduced and added some details, with a half-loving and half-helpless look, and explained to Si Chen: “No matter how similar the imitation is, it can never become real. If you really leave this bamboo forest, or fly to a certain height, you will find that there is actually nothing outside. Moreover, the environment in the world in the pot will also be affected by the outside world.”
Otherwise, why would her friend have gone to the moon to build the Moon City when she knew that she would be eroded and assimilated by the concept of the moon?
The Age of Gods shouldn’t perish, as each pantheon has some similar means to create a small world and dive into it so they can continue playing music and dancing.
In other words, do the houses here and the bamboo forest outside really exist?
【016】Bayi Yonglin’s physical examination (old version)
Following Bayi Yonglin, we entered a room where all four walls and cabinets were neatly filled with various bottles, jars, tools, and medicinal materials.
Si Chen heard a sentence that made him slightly stunned –
“Take off your clothes first.”
Instead of doing it immediately, Si Chen hesitated for a moment and turned to look at a little guy who came in with him.
“Look at what I am doing?”
Kaguya Hourai tilted her head in a serious tone, “If I knew this, I would have checked you out myself before. Why would I have asked Eirin to come all the way here?”
Si Chen turned around and looked at Bayi Yonglin.
Three seconds later, the two men each grabbed one of the princess’ arms and carried her out the door.
After closing the door, Bayi Eirin added another spell to ensure that even if someone outside the door wanted to force their way in, they couldn’t.
“The rest should not be used, right?”
Si Chen asked after taking off his upper body clothes, thinking that this was enough.
“If you don’t mind, you can take off your pants as well. That way the inspection will be more thorough.”
Bayei Eirin said it’s up to you.
For a moment, I couldn’t tell whether this person was serious or joking.
Following Bayi Yonglin’s instructions, Si Chen sat down on the only chair in the room. The next second, he felt a hand wrapped in strange power touching his back.
He controlled his body’s instincts and did not use the Armament Haki to cut off the alien power that invaded his body. Instead, he allowed it to explore the condition of his body under the control of Bayi Eirin.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the strange power controlled by Bayi Yonglin was groping Si Chen’s body inch by inch.
At the same time, the pen in her other hand drew a human figure on the table.
“Is it over?”
Si Chen asked after noticing the hand on his back leaving.
“The first part… that is, the examination before you unlock the gene lock, is over here.”
Bayi Yonglin responded, put down the pen, and tapped the human-shaped pattern with his index finger. Si Chen saw a dense message flowing on the paper.
Afterwards, she asked Si Chen’s opinion and with permission, she took out three blood collection bottles from the cabinet next to her. She used one of them to collect a blood sample from Si Chen, and then allowed Si Chen to open the gene lock.
Si Chen recalled the highly concentrated state of mind and energy he had experienced when he used the Minghong Sword to unlock his genetic lock.
One breath, two breaths, three breaths…
While adjusting his breathing frequency, at a certain moment, Si Chen’s mind went blank.
Countless fragmented fighting instincts emerged in my mind.
The pens and blood collection bottles on the table, the cabinets on both sides and the various bottles and jars in the cabinets, as well as several microscopes and weighing machines… The moment everything around him was perceived and captured, Si Chen had already thought of at least ten ways to use it in battle.
Noticing that his eyes became dazed, he had already made it clear from his previous introduction to the gene lock that this was one of the characteristics of unlocking the gene lock in the early stage. Bayi Yonglin did not delay and quickly completed the secondary physical examination and blood sample collection.
The last step is to wait for Si Chen to close the gene lock before the third inspection and blood sample collection.
“How does it feel?”
After observing Si Chen’s condition and confirming that he did not need emergency treatment, Bayi Yonglin handed him the clothes and asked him how he felt.
“How should I put it…”
While getting dressed, Si Chen recalled the severity of the side effects that followed his exit from the gene lock state: “It’s actually better than I expected.”
Although the side effects of pain and numbness all over the body are still torturous, they are much relieved compared to the last time.
Get to the bottom of it.
On the one hand, after surviving the first time with the highest mortality rate, as the body develops a certain degree of adaptability to the gene lock, the side effects of subsequent unlockings will become smaller each time.
On the other hand, in addition to the body’s adaptability, another determining factor in the severity of the initial side effects of the gene lock is the quality of the unlocker himself.
Compared to the first time the lock was unlocked.
In the middle, Si Chen went to Ruskaina Island in the world of One Piece, ate a lot of animal meat, strengthened his physique, and mastered the domineering system that can condense his own will, belief, spirit and other powers. His quality has improved a lot.
“Then my suggestion is that you can open the gene lock a few more times while there is no danger of you risking your life, so that it can be completely transformed into a permanent means of amplification that can be used in battle and will not cause your status to decline after it is used up.”
Bayi Yonglin pointed to the three human-shaped drawings on the table that recorded Si Chen’s physical data and suggested, “Although more specific details still need to be combined with blood samples for further analysis, based on my feeling when I used spiritual power to explore your body just now, at least in the first stage, the possibility that the gene lock will cause your genes to collapse is infinitely close to or even zero.
“This is also consistent with your introduction of it, saying that it is already a mature power system in another world.
“Since a power system can be popularized to a certain extent, it means that even if there are side effects, it is unlikely to cost you your life after using it a few times, as you and Kaguya worry.
“If you’re really worried, I’ll be staying on the ground for some time, so you can come and check on me every once in a while.”
“Then I will have to bother Mr. Bayi more for a while.”
After receiving the affirmation from the professional doctor, Si Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
“No need to be so polite. Just consider it as the rent for my stay in Yongyuan Pavilion.”
Bayi Yonglin smiled and said, “My identity is the attendant of Her Royal Highness the Princess, and you are now Her Royal Highness the Princess’s father. If you don’t mind, you can just call me Yonglin like Her Royal Highness the Princess.”
“Then…Eirin, just call me by my first name from now on.”
Si Chen nodded and changed the way he addressed her according to Bayi Yonglin’s words.
Afterwards, seeing that Bayi Yonglin’s attention was already on the three pieces of data, Si Chen did not stay here to disturb him too much.
After leaving the room and coming to the corridor, Si Chen just realized that he seemed to have forgotten to ask her how to leave this world in a jar, when he felt a pair of scrutinizing eyes falling on him.
“Father, forty-nine minutes, thirty-six seconds, seventy-two.”
Kaguya Houraisan looked at Si Chen with a half-smile.
Si Chen: “?”
“You two are doing this in the room without clothes on, behind my back… Hey, hey, hey, at least let me finish what I’m saying!”
The princess, who was lifted up by Si Chen by the back of her neck, waved her arms and legs in the air.
“Don’t let me make up any weird things without your permission…”
After putting Kaguya Penglaishan back on the ground and waiting for her to stand firmly, Si Chen continued, “During the entire forty-nine minutes, I was the only one who took off my shirt.”
“This is incredible enough for me, isn’t it?”
Kaguya Houraisan put away her joking expression and said seriously, “If my talent is called ‘the ability to manipulate eternity and a moment’, then Eirin’s talent is ‘the ability to make all kinds of medicines’. In terms of medicine, even if the gods of the Age of Gods are included, her talent is still among the best. And… do you know where Eirin first learned her medical skills?”
“Don’t tell me it’s us…”
Si Chen recalled the styles of cabinets he had seen in that room before.
“No doubt, it’s your side.”
Kaguya Houraisan nodded: “In my impression, look, smell, ask, and palpate, just the first two words, ‘observe the complexion and listen to the sounds’, are enough for her to solve almost all the diseases she encounters. For some special ones, at most it’s worth her asking a few questions, and then she can prescribe the right medicine…”
No wonder I always felt her expression seemed a little subtle when I asked her if she wanted to take off her pants.
【017】The Sage Monster Who Causes Trouble (Old Version)
For a period of time afterwards, Si Chen’s life entered a relatively stable routine.
Every morning, I wake up and prepare breakfast for myself, Kaguya and Eirin.
After breakfast, he would go to the bamboo forest where he had practiced swordsmanship for many years, sometimes alone or with Kaguya.
When the time is almost up, I will go back to Eternal Pavilion for lunch, then complete a long-term mission issued by Hancock and go to Ruskaina Island to continue honing my swordsmanship and domineering power by fighting against the land beasts on the island.
The difference from the past is that now there is another Eight Senses Eirin living in the Eternal Pavilion, so even if Kaguya leaves this world, there will be someone to take care of her. So at her insistence, when Si Chen went to the One Piece world again, he did not turn on the auxiliary function of the time and space gap.
An afternoon of fighting with land beasts can gain good experience in the entries of Armament Haki, Observation Haki, and basic swordsmanship.
While practicing, you can also enhance your friendship with group members who also come here to eat meat, train your body, or practice domineering.
It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
As for why there are so many benefits to going to Ruskaina Island, one still has to spend the morning time in the bamboo forest training ground of the original world.
On the one hand, of course, I want to spend more time with Kaguya.
Over the past nine years, I have gone from being confused and frightened at the beginning of the time travel to gradually adapting to and accepting the reality.
Since when, Si Chen has regarded this bamboo house that he built bit by bit by cutting bamboo as his new home, and also regarded Kaguya as a family member.
on the other hand……
“I found you!”
The knife-holding posture suddenly changed, and the Minghong knife in Si Chen’s hand drew a red knife light from an anti-intuitive angle.
Under the clear sound of sparrows, the flying and slashing attack that was normally enough to cover two or three miles encountered a barrier at a distance of more than three hundred meters and disappeared into thin air.
“Aren’t you coming out yet?”
Si Chen stared at that direction intently. After a few seconds, he retracted his gaze and turned to look behind him.
Listen to the sounds of everything!
This ability, which is derived from Observation Haki with the assistance of [Concept·Understanding (Red)], cannot bring direct improvements in attack, defense, etc. like Armament Haki.
But as an auxiliary, it is undoubtedly the best.
The most direct proof of this was the time when he felt the breath of all things on Ruskaina Island and broke into the realm of a swordsman in the world of One Piece.
And after returning from the pirate world that time, Si Chen’s observation Haki told him that there were some “dirty things” around that were spying on the bamboo forest centered on the Eternal Pavilion.
Despite several perspective switches, Si Chen was always able to capture the specific location at the first moment.
It seemed that it realized that it would not be easy to hide from Si Chen’s perception after being exposed, so the existence hidden in the dark showed up generously… but only a little bit.
A tiny crack opened in front of Si Chen’s eyes, and scarlet eyes looked at Si Chen through the gap.
Hatred, resentment, murderous intent, spitting, violence…
With just one look, Si Chen felt endless malice.
Then, the identity of the snoop is obvious.
The monster in the gap – Yakumo Yukari.
This is a monster from a clan. Even Si Chen, who has the perspective of a time traveler, has no idea of the origin of the clan.
He only knew that this was a genuine thousand-year-old demon, and was known as the Demon Sage because he was good at using strategies to achieve his goals rather than the violence that demons were more accustomed to using.
Hundreds of years later, she will start a war between the demons, ghosts and monsters on earth and the Moon City;
She is irreplaceable in the worldview of the “Touhou Project” series. Gensokyo, which houses a large number of non-human creatures such as monsters and is known as the “paradise of monsters” in contrast to the “human world” in the outside world, was also established by her and is subsequently responsible for its maintenance.
boom–
The domineering aura of the overlord suddenly erupted, and the extremely domineering momentum pushed back the malice released by the eye in the gap. At the same time, a spell on his body was triggered by his mind, echoing with another spell in the Eternal Pavilion not far away.
As a person who values his life, although Si Chen could not be sure where the spying came from at that time, he was able to hide perfectly under his perception of the color of sight. If it were not for the miraculous effect of listening to the sounds of all things, he would probably be unaware of being seen through. It is certain that the existence of the spying in secret is not simple.
Therefore, Si Chen had already told Houraisan Kaguya and Bayi Eirin about the existence of the snoopers at the very beginning of this “fishing” plan.
The purpose of the ritual is to ensure that when Si Chen discovers something, Bayi Yonglin in the bamboo building will be informed of it at the first time.
Suddenly——
Several silver-blue streams of light shot out from the direction of the bamboo building, hitting the gap in front of Si Chen and in several other directions around him.
That was the arrow of Bayi Eirin.
Before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, Si Chen felt a sense of weightlessness beneath his feet. He quickly slashed downwards, using the force to jump up to avoid falling into the gap below that led to an unknown destination.
Then he found himself jumping into another gap above.
That’s why I hate those of you who play with time or space. You really affect the balance.
Oh…except Kaguya.
“Eirin?!”
The roof of the Eternal Pavilion.
Seeing the gap above Si Chen’s head opening up, Kaguya Houraisan’s face changed. She was about to escape in a flash to rescue him, but found that she had been held down by Bayi Yonglin first.
“Calm down, she’s waiting for you to come over.”
Bayi Eirin spoke.
“You mean… that guy is coming for me?”
Kaguya Houraisan frowned.
“It’s just a guess.”
Bayi Yonglin said: “I think you also understand the upper and lower limits of the human race. Those with extraordinary talents can surpass the accumulation of thousands of years of other species in a very short period of time and gain enough strength to compete with big monsters. Mediocre people will never reach the threshold of extraordinary in their entire lives, and any small monster can take their lives.
“Although his strength is not bad, up to now, he is only at the level of the best among humans, and this is even including the Minghong Sword that you asked for from me.
“Compared to him, after discussing it, we all agree that the other party is more likely to come after you…”
“But we can’t let father fall into that guy’s hands, right?”
Kaguya Houraisan interrupted what Bayi Eirin was saying.
“Do you think that guy really has the ability to keep him?”
Bayei Eirin looked at the princess, who was already in a state of confusion due to concern, with a puzzled expression.
“You mean… the chat group?”
Kaguya Houraisan pondered the word “keep” from Eirin’s mouth and asked.
“That’s right.”
Bayi Yonglin nodded slightly: “In the past few days, in addition to checking his body, we have made some preparations and attempts for this matter.
“In my world in the pot, even if I use the stars to seal it off, the chat group can still let him leave at will. This is something your other father can’t do on the moon. Although she can use pure magnitude and single force to break all methods, I at least have the ability to stop her in the process.
“And his domineering aura allows him to withstand the mental influence techniques I cast on him and remain clear-headed for a short while. This period of time is enough for him to start teleporting…”
【018】Sunflower Field, Kazemi Yuka, Photosynthesis (Old Version)
Chat group: People in Zongman, unlimited entry upgrades: [018] Sunflower field, Fengjian Youxiang, photosynthesis pictures and texts
While Bayi Yonglin was comforting Kaguya of Houraisan, Si Chen had already passed through the gap and arrived in an unfamiliar world.
The moment he landed, he activated another spell he carried with him.
The function of the technique is to transmit his position to Yagi Eirin.
After sending the location, he began to observe his surroundings.
Then Si Chen was in a bit of a dilemma.
The place where Yakumo Yukari threw him was a field of sunflowers.
The densely packed sunflowers, facing the scorching sun, hummed the cheerful tune of “La La La” in unison under his perception of all things…
Except for the one whose stem he stepped on when he landed.
Carefully moving his feet away, Si Chen gently lifted up the sunflower and tried to negotiate with it: “I’m very sorry that this happened, but as you can see, I was also thrown here by someone… How about you wait until I have the ability one day, and then press the head of the guy who threw me here and let her knock it to you?”
The sunflower that was stepped on: “Boo-hoo~”
If he were in another world, seeing the sunflowers stretching for at least several miles, he would at most praise them for their good growth, and then think about picking some sunflower seeds to eat on the way back to relieve his boredom.
But in this world, it was confirmed to be the Touhou Project nine years ago.
Entering a field of sunflowers like this would be a bad thing.
In Gensokyo a thousand years later, there is a field of sunflowers that are growing very pleasingly. Passersby can occasionally see a figure walking in the field with an umbrella.
If you are just looking outside, you may be able to tell your family about the beautiful flowers you saw when you go back.
But if you break into a flower field, or do something like picking flowers near a flower field.
Then you may need to pay attention to safety.
As for the fact that after entering the sunflower field, I happened to hurt the sunflowers…
“Yakumo Yukari… I’ll keep this grudge in mind. You’d better not fall into my hands!”
Si Chen muttered to himself, called out the task interface of the chat group, and prepared to be transmitted at any time.
Although it was still several hundred years away from the appearance of the prototype of Gensokyo, given the temperament of the gap demon, would it be possible to throw him into an ordinary sunflower field?
Holding the chirping sunflower, I was wondering whether I should call the magical Miss Mary before its owner came over, or check the group mall to see if I could save it before it couldn’t chirp anymore.
Si Chen suddenly discovered that the stem that he had stepped on and broken was returning to normal at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The sound of rustling footsteps came from behind.
Letting go of the sunflower, Si Chen stood up and turned around to look at the woman who was wearing a white shirt, a vest with red and dark plaid, and a knee-length Scottish skirt of the same color, and holding a parasol that looked like a flower in her hand.
This is a beauty with short green curly hair, a slender figure, and ruby-like bright eyes adorning her delicate face, which is particularly eye-catching.
The woman’s identity was exactly the owner of the flower field he had guessed when he saw the sunflower field – the Lord of Four Seasons Flowers, Kazami Yuuka!
One hand holds the parasol, the other hand is raised, the light gathers at the fingertips.
After half a breath.
A light cannon made of extremely violent energy broke through the air and shattered the gap in the air.
After getting rid of the “eye” behind the scenes, Feng Jian Youxiang looked at Si Chen: “I think you also understand that this guy wants to use you as a raft to make me and you and the existence behind you confront each other.
“Since you were quite friendly to that kid just now, let’s leave it at that. When you go back, remember to tell the people behind you that the guy who plotted against you is called Yakumo Yukari.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the sunflowers on the side spontaneously tilted to the left and right, forming a path that allowed Si Chen to go out of the flower field.
Although according to the information I knew before I traveled through time, this thousand-year-old demon was the kind of person who was ruthless, didn’t talk much, and liked to crush everything with great force, so much so that some gossip legends said that she was a sadist, but based on this brief contact, she was unexpectedly gentle and rational?
Nodding to Feng Jian Youxiang, Si Chen was about to leave, but then he found something pulling at the corner of his clothes.
Looking back, it is still a ripe flower.
That was the one whose stem he had stepped on and broken before.
Si Chen looked at Feng Jian Youxiang in confusion.
“This kid seems to like you very much. He said he wanted to give you a little gift.”
Feng Jianyouxiang spoke.
As he spoke, the sunflower shook its petal, and a dozen melon seeds fell down. They were caught by the leaves below and brought to him.
What a weird development…
He took the melon seeds and thanked the sunflower.
Seeing that she had joined the chorus of other sunflowers around her and merged into the collective “la la la~”, Si Chen had no choice but to ask Feng Jian Youxiang: “These seeds…?”
“Since it’s something the kid gave you, it’s up to you to decide whether to eat it or plant it somewhere when you get back.”
Did I really eat it then?
Picking up a melon seed, Si Chen pretended to put it into her mouth, but seeing Feng Jian Youxiang still looking calm and indifferent, she gritted her teeth and actually cracked a melon seed in front of her.
This is……?!
Si Chen’s pupils shrank.
Of course, there is nothing wrong with the melon seeds themselves.
According to his perception of Observation Haki, neither the great monster Kazami Yuuka nor the densely packed and thriving sunflowers in the surrounding flower fields had any ill will towards him, which was in sharp contrast to the scarlet eyeballs in the gap before.
Likewise, he didn’t notice anything wrong with this handful of melon seeds. Otherwise, if he really wanted to eat them, he would have to go back and ask Bayi Yonglin for a check-up.
The real problem was the golden finger in his body.
[You have obtained a new entry——[Photosynthesis (white)]]【Photosynthesis (white)】
[Enables you to photosynthesize]The moment the talent term materialized, Si Chen felt that the sun above his head became extremely familiar at this moment.
Under the light.
The physical strength and energy that he had consumed from practicing sword skills alone and then being on guard against Yakumo Yukari were slowly recovering at an extremely small but certain speed.
Si Chen looked at Feng Jian Youxiang in surprise, but saw that the master of all seasons flowers had a flash of surprise in his originally indifferent eyes.
“interesting……”
Feng Jianyouxiang raised her hand.
Within a radius of several miles, every sunflower in the sunflower field, under her control, spit out a seed, which piled up into a small hill in front of Si Chen.
【019】The Lord of Four Seasons Flowers and the Monster Sage (Old Version)

There is nothing special about the seeds of the sunflowers in the sunflower field.
Even though they are cared for by Yuuka Kazami, the Lord of All Seasons Flowers, they are nothing more than ordinary melon seeds with a little more life essence, and can slightly warm the body after being taken.
But if they meet some strange judgment criteria of the entry system, they will have an additional benefit for Si Chen.
[Your entry [Photosynthesis (white)] has undergone a transformation][[Photosynthesis (white)] → [Photosynthesis (green)]]【Your entry…】
[[Photosynthesis (green)] → [Photosynthesis (blue)]][[Photosynthesis (blue)] → [Photosynthesis (purple)]]“Okay, okay, stop for a while. I can’t eat anymore.”
After three consecutive transformations, the originally white entries were upgraded to purple in one go. Si Chen had finally finished cracking most of the melon seeds.
Just as Feng Jianyouxiang was about to wave again, Si Chen interrupted her quickly.
It is certainly cool to get a talent item for free by cracking melon seeds, but after cracking a mountain of melon seeds in one breath, he has some psychological trauma about this thing.
Moreover, after the color transformed from blue to purple, the feeling when he cracked the remaining sunflower seeds told him that even if he cracked all the sunflower seeds in the entire flower field today, it would probably not be enough for the photosynthesis entry to transform again.
“Are you really a human being, and not some flower, tree, or natural spirit in disguise?”
Feng Jian Youxiang held the umbrella over Si Chen’s head, then took it away, feeling the speed at which he absorbed energy from the sunlight and converted it into nutrients.
“…This is the only thing I can be sure of.”
Si Chen nodded confidently.
“All right.”
Kazami Yuuka put the parasol back on her shoulders with regret and asked, “Are you leaving?”
“You also know how I got here before. In order to prevent my family from worrying, I have to go back and report that I am safe.”
Hiss…what’s going on with this inexplicable sense of déjà vu?
After a slight hesitation, Si Chen asked, “This should still be Japan, right?”
“Yes, it is the Western Region.”
“As long as we are on this land, we can’t go too far.”
Although the knowledge of the distribution of various forces in Japan during this period is almost zero, especially since this world belongs to the Touhou Project world series, it cannot be fully integrated into history.
But he still had an idea of how big the land was.
“How about this, after I go back and report that I’m safe, if there’s nothing wrong over there, I’ll come back to see… uh, see you?”
He originally wanted to say that he would come back to see Fengjian Youxiang, but after careful consideration, his relationship with her did not seem to be good enough to say such words, so Si Chen temporarily changed his words and turned to the familiar sunflower.
“La la la~”
Sunflower was swaying its body happily with the friends around it, and it was unknown whether it heard what Si Chen said.
“These kids are just a little more spiritual than the kids outside. They can’t understand your complicated meaning.”
Feng Jian Youxiang smiled, and her slender fingers brushed across the disk of the sunflower: “However, if you have time, it would be nice to come back and bask in the sun with them.”
“It’s settled then.”
Reaching out and grabbing the leaf of the sunflower and shaking hands with it, Si Chen said goodbye to Feng Jian Youxiang and walked out of the sunflower field along the path made by the sunflowers leaning to the sides.
After a few breaths.
Feng Jianyouxiang watched Si Chen’s back gradually going away, and suddenly raised the parasol in his hand.
The tip of the umbrella accurately poked into a gap that had just opened in the air.
“It hurts~”
Another gap opened in front of Fengjian Youxiang, and a woman with long golden hair and purple-gold eyes came out from it. She was wearing a purple robe on the outside and a Western-style long skirt underneath.
After coming out of the gap, the blonde showed Feng Jian Youxiang the red spot on her forehead and said angrily: “Youxiang, could you be more careful? If I hadn’t dodged in time, my eyes would have been blinded by you!”
“Really? That’s a shame, I should have been faster.”
“Hey~!”
The blonde woman stamped her feet. “After all, we are close friends who have supported each other since childhood. How can you treat us like this? Believe it or not, if I get angry, I will ignore you for the next thousand years!”
“Is there such a good thing?”
Feng Jian Youxiang raised an eyebrow: “Then let’s make a deal?”
“cough……”
Considering that her plan required a thousand-year-old demon-level combat power like Feng Jianyouxiang, she didn’t dare to be so tough. The blonde woman changed the subject and said, “We have known each other for so many years, how come we never knew that these ‘children’ of yours were so spiritual that they would take the initiative to keep people and give gifts.”
Feng Jianyouxiang closed her eyes and did not answer.
“Hmm… Is it because we haven’t stepped on them before?”
The blonde woman took out a folding fan with lace trim from the gap, nodded her chin, pretended to understand, bent down and politely asked the sunflower: “I see, let’s step on it now… Excuse me, do you like us to step on it with shoes on, or do you prefer barefoot? Or do you prefer to step on it without shoes and only wear socks? Do you have any specific requirements for the style of socks?”
boom–!!!
A beam of magic shot out from the disk of the sunflower, brushed the tip of the blonde woman’s nose, and streaked across the sky.
“Have you acted enough, Yakumo Yukari?”
There was obvious impatience in Feng Jianyouxiang’s tone: “If you have something to say, just say it. If not, don’t stay here and get in the way.”
“Okay, okay, I’ll listen to you and get down to business.”
Seeing that all the sunflowers in the field were facing her, Yakumo Yukari put away the joking expression on her face and said, “I hope you can seriously consider what I told you before.”
“…You’ve listened to those guys’ flattery so much, do you really think you’re a ‘sage’ to the monsters?”
Kazami Yuuka opened her eyes and frowned at Yakumo Yukari: “You and I are not monsters who grew up relying on fear. Even if the era you said really comes, what impact will it have on us? Is it worth it to do this for those idiots who don’t even care about themselves?”
“So we already have a plan. We are going to use that person’s power to get rid of some of those idiots first.”
Yakumo Yukari pointed in the direction of the moon in the sky, and then indicated the direction where Si Chen left: “I just noticed a slash that was enough to hurt a big demon when I passed by, so I looked at him twice out of curiosity, and I didn’t expect to find an unexpected surprise… If we can win them over, the success rate of our plan can be increased by at least 30%!”
“So your way of winning him over is to throw him to my side and want me to kill him?”
“As the saying goes, there is no acquaintance without fighting~”
Yakumo Yukari opened her folding fan to cover the lower half of her face, with a dark look in her eyes: “If you had tried to kill me just now, I might have had to fight you.”
“Oh……”
The corners of Fengjian Youxiang’s mouth twitched twice, and she turned and walked towards her residence in the middle of the flower field.
“Huh?”
Yakumo Yukari asked in confusion, “Youxiang, shouldn’t you say ‘It’s not too late to fight now’?”
“You have been calculating this and that over the years. You have calculated too much.”
Feng Jian Youxiang stopped and said without looking back: “Rather than fighting with you, I would rather receive good news that you have messed up.”
【020】White-haired dog demon, witch Cuizi (old version)
Chat group: People in Zongman, unlimited entry upgrades: [020] White-haired dog demon, witch Cuizi picture and text
The other side.
Si Chen, who had just left the sunflower field, was already on his way home.
Although he was ignorant of astronomy, geography, and current affairs.
But one thing is known –
The Sanuki Zoumaro couple, who lived in a village outside the bamboo forest and had been asked by him to help buy some daily necessities for the past nine years, always went to Fujiwara-kyo.
And Fujiwara-kyo, according to Sanuki Zoumaro’s description in a casual conversation, was the largest city ever seen in Japan.
Even residents of overseas islands come from thousands of miles away to see it.
In other words, it is not difficult to confirm the location of Fujiwara-kyo in this land of Japan.
This is also true.
After walking into a village, he casually asked a few vendors, and one of them told him the direction of Fujiwara-kyo.
Once you reach Fujiwara-kyo, would it be difficult to find a bamboo forest where even old men and women like the Sanuki Zoumaro couple could walk back and forth in a day?
This chaotic world is a bit too chaotic.
He didn’t draw his sword, he just swung it casually with his bare hands.
With the blessing of a total of 6 points of slashing strength from the basic swordsmanship, the swordsman’s flying slash, even if it is swung with a hand knife, already has considerable power.
A tiger demon and the bluestone where it was hiding were cut in half like tofu by the knife.
Si Chen shook his head after seeing the dozen or so ghosts that were originally controlled by the tiger demon regain their freedom, kneel down, kowtow to him several times, and then go to the underworld.
He was wearing clothes that were much more luxurious than those of ordinary people, and had a sheathed long sword on his back.
Although it was not the standard attire of the Japanese samurai, Si Chen, dressed like this, was not harassed when he passed through the territories of various daimyo. Even the bandits mostly pretended not to see him.
God knows whether this seemingly simple existence is a noble lord who can directly send an army from the capital to scan the map after something happens, or a terrifying guy who can tear everyone to pieces by himself.
Since the other party is just passing by, just let him pass.
Anyway, he doesn’t look like he can hide much valuables that are easy to sell.
The disputes between people basically have no effect on Si Chen. What really makes him feel a little annoyed are the small monsters like this tiger monster whose minds are almost non-existent.
I can only say that choosing to stay with Kaguya and stay in her safe zone was a wise choice.
With my small body nine years ago, even if I could rely on my clothes to scare daimyos, bandits, and rebel armies like I do now, I could not deal with monsters like you who would just treat you as a weirdo on a plate no matter how gorgeously you dressed.
“Hey, do you want this one?”
He called behind him.
Whoosh——
A silver-white phantom jumped out from behind and pounced on the tiger demon’s body.
It was a snow-white dog with no colored hair on its body except for a smear of light purple lines on each cheek. There was a crescent-shaped purple mark in the center of its forehead.
The tiger skin, which was strong enough to ignore ordinary crossbow arrows, was easily torn apart by the white dog’s bite.
Obviously.
This white dog is not an ordinary dog, but a monster.
“Xiaobai, you’ve followed me all the way, are you really not going to consider my previous proposal?”
He stretched out his hand to cover the dog demon’s back, stroking its snow-white fur. Seeing that it only trembled and did not avoid him like the previous times, Si Chen smiled and said, “I dare not say anything else. After you follow me, at least I can provide you with enough meat.”
“Woo…”
A low roar came from the dog demon’s throat.
Ordinary people certainly wouldn’t understand the meaning of this roar, but with [Concept·Comprehension (Red)], even without opening the Observation Haki to listen to the sounds of all things, Si Chen could understand that what the other party wanted to express was “damn human beings.”
But, grumbling is just grumbling.
After roaring, the little guy continued to eat obediently under Si Chen’s caress.
“Although there is no evil aura lingering around this dog demon, which shows that it has not yet actively attacked humans, I still want to remind you that raising monsters is not a good idea.”
A clear sound came from the other side of the mountain.
Si Chen looked in the direction of the voice and saw a heroic woman holding a wooden bow and with a long sword hanging from her waist. Judging from her attire, she should be a witch. She walked towards the man and the dog with nimble steps.
“No offense, just a reminder of my duties as a witch.”
Coming in front of Si Chen and stopping, the witch with a flower ornament on her forehead spoke.
“I think it’s fun to have a little creature like this to watch the door or something.”
Si Chen scratched the dog demon’s chin.
The dog demon, who had been squinting his eyes in comfort after his action, suddenly widened his narrow eyes and stared at Si Chen with his red pupils when he heard the word “gatekeeper” in the second half of his sentence.
“Hey, what do you mean? Do you want to eat for free?”
Si Chen flicked his finger and flicked its head, causing it to burst.
“…With your ability, I have no doubt that it can cause trouble while you are still here.”
Seeing the dog demon being suppressed by the snap of a finger, the witch smiled and said, “But at your level, I think you should also know the biggest difference between humans and demons.
“It is rare for a person to live to be over a hundred years old, but these few hundred years may be just a short memory for a monster.
“During these years of traveling around the world, I have seen many families that raise monsters, and some of them are families whose ancestors had a bond with monsters like you.
“However, some of those families have exhausted the friendship between their ancestors and monsters over the long years. In order to continue to borrow the power of the other party, they are willing to become puppets controlled by monsters. Some families can live in harmony with monsters, but they are in trouble because the monsters’ enemies find out about this, or because there are monsters who can’t stand the harmony between humans and monsters…”
“So you’re saying I’d better leave it alone?”
Si Chen rubbed the dog demon’s head and asked the witch.
“That’s not the case.”
The witch shook her head. “Since this monster has never hurt anyone, and you are feeding it with other monsters and have the ability to control it, I have no reason to kill it. I said these words to you at the beginning. It’s just a reminder.”
“You are an interesting miko. Can I ask which shrine you are in and what deity you worship?”
Si Chen smiled and said, “When I’m free someday, I might go shopping.”
“The shrine I originally worshipped was destroyed by a monster attack. As for the name…”
The witch was silent for a while and said, “Your Excellency, please call me Cuizi.”
Cuizi…
Um, Miko? Tsuiko?
Si Chen was stunned for a moment, and suddenly thought of something: “Your method of exterminating monsters is not to extract their souls and purify them, right?”
“…Have you heard of me somewhere else before?”
Cui Zi let out a light exclamation.
Do you count as having heard of you from a manga called “Inuyasha” and its derivative works?
etc.
I finally remembered why I felt this dog looked familiar the first time I saw it.
Grabbing the skin on the back of the white-haired dog demon’s neck and picking up the little guy, Si Chen looked at the crescent moon mark between its eyebrows.
【021】Let’s just call her Lingyue Xianji… (Old version)
Chat group: People in Zongman, unlimited upgrade of entries: [021] Or just call her Lingyue Fairy… Picture and text
“The crescent moon mark on its forehead…”
Seeing that Si Chen seemed to have been staring at the mark on the dog demon’s head for a long time, Cui Zi told him what she knew: “It should be the mark of the royal family among the dog demons of the Western Kingdom.”
“So you are still a little princess?”
In fact, even if Tsuiko didn’t say it, after confirming that there was Inuyasha in this world in addition to the Touhou Project, combined with the Crescent Moon Mark and the western region where she met this little guy, Si Chen basically guessed who this dog was and gave her a reverse Lion King-style lift.
“Humph~” (Stupid human~)
The little guy turned his head and snorted.
“Okay, hurry up and eat.”
Si Chen put the dog back in front of the tiger demon’s corpse and let it continue eating. He then looked at the witch and said, “Miss Cuizi, you probably haven’t eaten yet either. Do you want to eat something with me?”
Cui Zi glanced at the tiger demon’s corpse, half of which had been eaten by the dog demon, and raised her eyebrows.
“Of course it can’t be this. Although this long journey was somewhat unexpected, I still have some emergency food with me.”
Si Chen snapped his fingers, and two food boxes that had been “stored” in the group mall were taken out.
When you open the lid, you’ll see the rice and dishes inside still emitting hot steam.
“…It’s a very sophisticated technique.”
Cui Zi, who found nothing when Si Chen took out the two food boxes, praised.
“Thank you for the compliment.”
Si Chen smiled, then remembered that he hadn’t introduced himself yet, so he gave his name and then asked, “Miss Cuizi, would you like to drink?”
“No.”
Cui Zi shook her head.
“Then have some fruit.”
Si Chen took out some goods from another world from the mall. He asked Chuixue to buy them in bulk from the fruit market on her side.
After a lunch which was quite sumptuous even though it was in the wilderness.
Stroking the dog that didn’t leave after eating like the previous times, Si Chen looked at Cui Zi who started packing after thanking him for the treat and asked curiously, “Miss Cui Zi, are you traveling now, or do you have a specific destination?”
“For now, we need to go to Fujiwara-kyo.”
Cuizi replied, “A few years ago, I just started traveling and was inexperienced. When I was fighting a group of monsters, I was attacked by the monster leader. At that time, a caravan happened to pass by. The leader was a noble lady. She kept me in the caravan for a few days to recover from my injuries. A few days ago, I got news from a group of merchants that the noble lady and her husband’s family had passed away. The way they died… well, it was a bit unusual.”
“monster?”
“It should be, so I plan to go check it out.”
“What a coincidence.”
Si Chen invited, “I’m going to Fujiwara-kyo, and we’re going the same way. Do you want to go together?”
“Sorry to bother you then.”
Cui Zi hesitated for a moment but did not refuse.
So the team that originally consisted of only one person became two people and a dog after a meal.
Before the time travel, Si Chen had only watched some wilderness survival videos on the Internet. After the time travel, he had not been to any other place except the bamboo house where the Eternal Pavilion was located and the Ruskaina Island in the One Piece world.
Cui Zi, who has been traveling around the country for many years, fighting off and conquering demons and monsters from all sides, is obviously more experienced in outdoor survival.
How to choose a relatively labor-saving path during the day, how to get back to the right direction after making many twists and turns in the mountains, and how to choose a dry cave or other place to rest at night…
These are like basic skills for Cui Zi.
What, you ask why the most important things for outdoor survival, food and water, are not mentioned?
Good question.
Cui Zi’s eyes swept over the dog demon that was following Si Chen closely.
Compared to the first time I met him, this dog demon has become much bigger.
This was fed to Si Chen using the corpses of monsters he killed along the way. Because he fed too much, it could not be digested in a short time, and he was reluctant to waste it, so some of the excess nutrients accumulated, which was finally reflected in his size.
The demonic power in its body has increased several times compared to when it was first seen.
No wonder, as a dog demon with royal blood, it would willingly follow Si Chen all the way from the Western Country.
All the mountain spirits and wild monsters killed along the way were fed to the dog demon.
Si Chen was not polite when it came to him and himself.
Looking back on the delicious food she had tasted along the way, Cui Zi’s hand seemed to touch her waist and abdomen inadvertently.
Well… fortunately, the time they spent together was not too long, and the extravagant food and fish they ate during those days was not enough to make her gain weight.
“Fujiwara-kyo is ahead of us, Lord Sichen, are we going to separate here?”
Looking at the city that was already vaguely visible not far away, Cui Zi spoke.
“Okay, then we’ll see each other again.”
Si Chen nodded.
After Cuizi left, he squatted down in front of the dog demon and said, “According to what we agreed on, you should give me a precise answer. Do you want to be friends or go home with me?”
“Huh…” (I’m here to show you the door. Impossible!)
The dog demon bared its teeth, a cold light flashed on its sharp canine teeth, and it looked ferocious.
“so……?”
Si Chen asked, feeling that there should be more to come.
“Woo~” (At most I can help you when someone or something comes uninvited, no, I can help myself drive it away!)
Just as Si Chen expected, after being reserved for a while, the dog demon whimpered and awkwardly expressed its willingness to go back with him.
Of course, while agreeing, she also added a prior statement.
As the owner of the most noble bloodline of this generation of the Western Dog Demon Clan, once she becomes a great demon, she will automatically inherit the position of clan leader from the old clan leader.
Even if she didn’t grow up to be a great monster, if something happened to the clan, she would not stay out of it.
Unlike the vast majority of monsters in Japan who usually act alone, they will only release their demonic powers when necessary to gather a group of evil spirits and monsters, and set off a night parade of hundreds of demons to achieve their own goals.
The dog demons of the Western Country, while adhering to the core principle of “the strong are respected”, have already formed a relatively complete ethnic social structure, just like the Tengu of the Monster Mountain.
As a king, he is born with the loyalty of all dog demons in the West, and he must also assume corresponding responsibilities when necessary.
“When that time comes, I won’t stop you.”
Si Chen held the front paw that the dog demon handed over.
Thus, the contract is established.
“Let me ask you something. You should have known my name after all this time, but I still don’t seem to know yours.”
Si Chen asked a question that he had actually always been curious about.
If I remember correctly, her name never seemed to be mentioned in the original work.
“Woof…” (Our names can be given by our parents or elders, or we can make a name for ourselves in the demon world. I just left my clan when I met you…)
So, not yet?
“But I can’t keep calling you ‘you’…”
As he spoke, seeing Gou Zi nodding his head slightly in agreement, Si Chen suggested, “How about I give you a temporary name and let you use it first, and then change it when you have decided what you want to be called?”
“Woof~!” (Don’t say Xiaobai, that sounds too casual!)
“Okay, okay, then…Dabai?”
“Woof!!!”
The dog scratched Si Chen’s face with its claws.
The sharp claws that were powerful enough to cut gold and break stone did not extend out, and Yu Sichen felt as if he was rubbed by something furry.
But the emotions were expressed very well.
“Okay, okay, no more jokes, then I’ll call you… Fairy Lingyue?”
Si Chen reported this because the original author had not given accurate information. The few times she appeared, she was replaced by other nicknames. The second name was created due to rumors on the Internet.
【022】Fujiwara Kyo, the monster that destroyed the whole family (old version)
Compared with names like “Xiaobai” and “Dabai” which are so perfunctory that they are almost too much.
The four words “Lingyue Fairy” given by Si Chen were enough to shock Gouzi for a whole year.
The dog demon was afraid that this guy might give himself a name like Xiaobai on a whim, so there was no reason for him to disobey.
Si Chen was in a good mood after getting a Lingyue Fairy and immediately decided to go for a stroll in the city.
He had always heard the Sanuki Zoumaro couple praise Fujiwara-kyo as rare in heaven and hard to find on earth. Now that he was here today, he wanted to see what it was all about.
“Humph~” (Not as good as a hair of our tribe~)
Walking proudly on the street, Fairy Lingyue looked down upon this metropolis which was said to be the largest in Japan ever seen by human beings.
If you observe carefully enough, you can find that there is a layer of light cloud under her four feet, which allows her to avoid direct contact with the ground.
“Nonsense, if humans can really build a city like that, will the outside world still be yours?”
Si Chen replied in a low voice.
The Western Dog Clan… to be more precise, the territory of the Dog Demon Royal Family. He remembered that the effect presented in the animation was a palace in the clouds.
Not to mention now.
Fast forward more than a thousand years, to the era before he traveled through time, even if humans already had the ability to build space stations in extraterrestrial orbit, if someone really developed the technology to construct buildings in the clouds, then don’t even think about winning the Nobel Prize. You can just establish a new award in your name.
In fact, based on his observations after entering the city, compared to the Fujiwara-kyo in serious history, it might be because this world really does have supernatural powers, and there are also shrine maidens and onmyoji among humans who can master some extraordinary abilities.
This Fujiwara-kyo doesn’t look like a city that could be built in Japan at this time, but it does have some of the charm of Japanese Taiga dramas.
Although to him, having eaten and seen it, that’s just the way it is.
“Let’s go. It’s a little interesting, but not much. It’s better to go home early.”
Si Chen, who had learned from passers-by that there was only one mountain in one direction near Fujiwara-kyo where large tracts of bamboo grew, patted Lingyue Fairy and led her towards the bamboo mountain.
Cross the street.
Pedestrians and vendors on both sides would give way when Si Chen walked in.
This is certainly not some kind of “Idle people, please go away” spell he had used.
Just like the reason why he hardly encountered any human disasters on his way from the western part of Japan to Fujiwara-kyo, he was dressed luxuriously, had an aloof demeanor, carried a knife on his back, and led a dog. Could he be an ordinary person?
The local residents of Fujiwara-kyo or the outsiders who come here to make a living have a much deeper understanding of the four words “noble lord” than the bandits outside.
With his extraordinary hearing, Si Chen once heard an old man complain to others that the dog he was holding could eat as much food as he would have eaten for several days in one meal.
Be more confident. This is more than enough for you to eat for several days. When those monsters are alive, they can even eat several of you in one bite!
After passing through half of Fujiwara-kyo and about to leave from the city gate closest to Takeyama, Fairy Lingyue suddenly barked and said she smelled a familiar scent.
Following her instructions, I turned a few alleys.
Si Chen found a familiar figure behind a wall that looked like it had been broken open by a giant creature with brute force.
“Ms. Cuizi, we meet again.”
He took the initiative to say hello.
“Mr. Si Chen?”
Cuizi turned around and saw that it was Sichen. She nodded slightly to him and said, “Are you going to this area as well?”
“No, I just happened to pass by, and Xian Ji said she smelled someone familiar… That’s right.”
Si Chen touched the dog head that was leaning out of the gap in the wall and looking inside: “Ling Yue Xian Ji, this is the name I gave her after you left. How about it? Doesn’t it sound good?”
“really.”
After noticing Si Chen’s question, the dog demon’s gaze suddenly stayed on her, and Cui Zi nodded.
Compared to the original “Xiaobai” who she could see that the dog demon was resisting, isn’t Fairy Lingyue much better?
“Is this the family you mentioned that was wiped out by the monster?”
Si Chen pointed to the building behind her that looked like it had been burned down.
“It’s right here.”
Cuizi sighed and asked the child beside her, “Can you please say it again?”
“It’s not a bother, it’s not a bother, as long as I can help Sister Cuizi.”
The child shook her head and told what she knew.
The incident started about a month ago, when the head of this family and several other familiar noblemen went out hunting. It is said that they encountered something incredible. Two of the people who went into the mountains together were killed on the spot. When they were found by their families, their bodies had been eaten to pieces by something unknown. The other few were also injured, and went to the Yin-Yang Bureau as soon as they returned.
However, even though the Onmyoji Bureau sent an Onmyoji to each family because these people had some status, they still failed to prevent the disaster.
People living nearby only heard a loud bang that day, followed by screams from different people and flames shooting up into the sky.
By the next day, there was no movement inside. The brave ones found a few companions, pried open the door, or looked inside directly through the collapsed wall like this family did, and saw that the inside was in ruins.
“It’s very common that after you provoke a monster, the monster comes to seek revenge.”
After the child finished speaking, Cui Zi concluded.
“Is it because the local monsters are too arrogant or the Onmyoji of the Onmyoji Bureau are not good enough that they allowed monsters to break into the city and cause such a thing…”
Si Chen was somewhat stunned: “This seems to be the capital of this country, right?”
“After all, the Yin Yang Bureau has only been established for 20 to 30 years. Initially, it was not for exorcising demons, but for fortune-telling and astronomy. So we can’t blame them entirely.”
“Do you need help?” Si Chen asked.
“Need not.”
Cui Zi made a hand gesture, and three pieces of talisman paper flew out from the ruins: “There were three monsters that appeared here. I have memorized their auras. I will go to the other ones later to see if there are any I missed.
“From these three auras, those monsters have killed many people, but none of them can be considered a big monster.”
As long as they are not big monsters, the number is not a big problem for her.
“Okay, just know the answer yourself.”
As a shrine maiden capable of traveling alone, based on Si Chen’s observations during the past few days of traveling with Cui Zi, her strength and professionalism in exterminating monsters are unquestionable.
The reason why the original plot went wrong was entirely because the monsters were forced into a joint attack by her ability to purify souls. Even so, after fighting hard for several days and nights, when she was exhausted and dying, she used her last bit of strength to pull the souls of all the monsters that besieged her out of her body, entangled them with her own soul, and turned them into small pieces of the Four Souls Jade that could greatly increase the monsters’ strength.
Be careful of monsters who don’t abide by martial ethics. Si Chen had already given this reminder on the way to Fujiwara-kyo.
Now that Cui Zi said so herself, he didn’t bother to meddle in other people’s business.
【023】Return to Eternal Pavilion (Old Version)
Deep in the bamboo forest, in front of the Yongyuan Pavilion.
“Welcome home, father~”
The delicate girl had been waiting at the door for a long time. The moment she saw Si Chen, she welcomed him.
“During the time I was away, did that guy come here again?”
Si Chen took the wet towel from the girl’s hand, wiped the non-existent dust off his face, and asked.
Kaguya Houraisan shook her head and said, “You know my current state. It is basically impossible to detect her movements unless she reveals herself. But Eirin said that in the past few days, that guy stayed and confronted her for a while after sending you away, and then he never showed up again.”
“If she said that, then it must be true that she has never been here.”
Si Chen looked up at the sky above the bamboo forest, which was filled with stars that were clearly visible even in broad daylight.
After stepping into the bamboo forest, he noticed the abnormality of the stars here.
This abnormality is exactly the vision in which Yagi Eirin unfolds her technique of using the power of stars based on her research on astrology and the concept of mysticism. Each star map has its own effect.
For example, in the star map at this moment, these activated star forces can neither be used for attack nor defense, nor do they have sealing or suppression functions. The only effect is to present everything within the range of starlight to the eyes of the stargazer.
The last time I saw this star map was in Hu Zhong Tian.
At that time, Bayi Yonglin tried to stop Si Chen from leaving through the chat group but failed, so he turned his attention to pure observation, but found nothing.
“Father, you can check with Yonglin later about the situation at home. As for you… you haven’t encountered any danger in the past few days, right?”
Kaguya Houraisan asked with concern.
“You may not believe it…”
Si Chen glanced at the purple on the entry system panel in his mind: “I suspect her original intention was to use me to stir up hostility between you, Yonglin and the other guy, but she is not stupid. Not only did she not fall for it, but she gave me some benefits before I left. I can be considered to have made a friend.”
“Father, the benefits you mentioned…”
Kaguya’s eyes fell on the dog that came back with him: “Could it be this one you’re referring to?”
“No, I met this little girl on my way back. I thought she looked pretty cute, so I brought her back. Her name is Lingyue Fairy… I gave it to her.”
Si Chen introduced Kaguya to Lingyue Fairy: “This is Kaguya of Penglai Mountain. You heard what she just said to me. She is my daughter. Would you like to say hello to her first? Don’t worry that she won’t understand. I will help translate.”
“No, I can talk.”
Fairy Lingyue nodded to Kaguya of Penglai Mountain: “Hello, nice to meet you.”
Her attitude is very cool, but her voice is not mature enough, so she seems a bit arrogant.
Of course, Si Chen’s focus at the moment is not on this.
“Can you speak?”
He looked at Fairy Lingyue in astonishment.
“Even if they are beginner monsters, they can learn to speak if they want, right?”
“Then why didn’t I hear you say a word along the way?”
“You can understand it anyway, so what’s the difference?”
Fairy Lingyue looked at Si Chen in confusion, who could clearly understand what she wanted to say even if she really made a “zhi~” sound: “And all along, it seems that what you said is not the common language of this land.”
Si Chen, who had been speaking Chinese, relied on the convenience of [Concept·Understanding (Red)]: “…”
Can’t refute it.
“Wait, then you can’t be able to transform too?”
Si Chen quickly thought of a new problem.
“Yes, but it’s not complete.”
Ling Yue Xian Ji replied: “If I want to completely transform into a human form, I need to raise my demon power to the level of a high-level demon.”
“Incomplete?”
“Maybe it’s impossible to transform into a complete human form, and after transforming it will leave some non-human features like animal ears and tails?”
Although she had not left the bamboo forest since coming to the ground, she had observed the ground through the Eight Senses Eirin’s technique many times when she was in the Moon City. Therefore, she had some understanding of the difference in the transformation of monsters before and after breaking through the high-level demon power. Houraisan Kaguya took over the conversation.
Fairy Lingyue nodded, indicating that this was what she meant.
Animal ears, tail…
Looking at Fairy Lingyue, Si Chen, who remembered that she seemed to have silver hair after she transformed, touched his chin.
If Kaguya wasn’t right next to me, I would really like to ask her to transform into one and see.
“Father~”
Penglaishan Kaguya called back Si Chen’s attention: “Since this is just an accident, would you mind introducing your new friend?
“Being chosen by that fellow as a target for calculation, I think even if she is slightly inferior to him, the gap is not too big. It is more likely that she is on par with her in general, but is worse than her in some aspects.
“What kind of gift can such a being give… To be honest, I am very curious.”
I always feel that there is more to your curiosity than just this. What’s going on?
Si Chen looked up at the sun, opened his hand to block the sunlight that used to be blinding, but now could feel endless warmth after photosynthesis, and asked, “Did you find it?”
“Is this… the sun?”
The moment Si Chen released his restraint on himself, Kaguya Houraisan noticed something unusual on him under the sunlight and asked in confusion.
“Photosynthesis, isn’t it amazing?”
Si Chen nodded with a smile.
“…I think that you should go find Eirin as soon as you come back, father.”
Penglaishan Kaguya’s face changed, she put her hand on Si Chen’s arm, and took him with her into the moment of time. When they left the gap in time, they had arrived at Bayi Yonglin’s laboratory in the world in the pot.
“You’re back?”
Holding a test tube that was still bubbling, Bayi Yonglin had actually noticed the moment Si Chen stepped into the bamboo forest. Kaguya was able to show up at the door of Eternal Pavilion early to greet him because she had been notified. When she saw Si Chen, she nodded to him and greeted him.
“Eirin, father has encountered a new situation this time when he went out. He may need you to check his body again.”
After the two finished exchanging greetings, Kaguya Houraisan spoke out the reason why she had dragged Si Chen here so quickly.
【024】Magical photosynthesis, spiritual awakening (old version)
“Photosynthesis…?”
After listening to Si Chen’s introduction of what he had gained from cracking melon seeds, Bayi Yonglin followed the two of them outside the house, and then reversed the constellations in the world in the pot, so that in addition to the bright moon as an anchor point, another sun appeared in the sky, presenting a wonderful sight of the sun and the moon in the same sky, shining brightly on each other.
After Si Chen took off his shirt, she skillfully placed one hand on his back, feeling the details of his body absorbing nutrients from the sunlight.
After more than ten breaths, Bayi Yonglin withdrew his hand.
“Isn’t this recovery speed already exceeding your current peak consumption?”
The sentence was structured as a question, but her tone was very firm, as if she was very confident in her test results.
“almost.”
Si Chen nodded and expressed his feelings along the way: “Even if I use all my strength all the time, as long as I am under the sunshine, I will basically not lose my strength.”
Supplement: The “full force” here refers to after the genetic lock is unlocked.
The “toxicity” of the gene lock in the early stage is partly due to the explosion when it is unlocked, which is the result of squeezing the body’s strength.
Once the extent of the squeeze exceeds the limit that the body can withstand, the body can still hold on while the genetic lock is still open. However, as soon as the genetic lock is closed, the side effects that follow can be fatal.
With the purple-quality photosynthesis entry, as long as he doesn’t engage in a long-term burst beyond the limit, the consumption to maintain the normal state of the gene lock is not even as fast as his natural recovery speed in the sun.
“It’s about the same as I expected.”
Bayi Yonglin stared at Si Chen’s body, as if he was looking at some rare treasure.
If it is a monster transformed from a plant, it is not too surprising that it can carry out photosynthesis. At most, the efficiency of photosynthesis is slightly higher than that of ordinary natural monsters.
But whether it was the previous examinations or this examination, the results showed that he was 100% pure human.
That’s amazing.
The most important thing is that “photosynthesis” is only a small part of his magic.
“Well, well… since there’s nothing wrong with Father’s health, and he’s now able to keep his gene lock open for a long time, can we try again?”
Kaguya Houraisan on the side raised her hand.
“Want to try?”
Bayei Eirin also looked at the person involved.
“Let’s try it.”
Si Chen nodded slightly.
The “try” mentioned by the three people refers to the attempt to help Si Chen awaken his spiritual power.
After consulting Bayi Yonglin, Si Chen’s previous speculations about power and power seeds that he brought from another world were also recognized by her.
Si Chen, who has already experienced the power of domineering, naturally has the desire to have one for himself.
Even if the most cost-effective option at the moment is centered around domineering aura and swordsmanship, you should first raise the upper limit of your ability to exert, and then slowly think about how to strengthen it.
But given that there is no limit to the number of slots in the “skill bar” itself, is it okay to accumulate more “growth skills” like these?
Not to mention, according to Si Chen’s guess.
Just as the domineering system will not conflict with his existing swordsmanship, the spiritual power system may also be compatible with his existing domineering system.
Domineering power comes from the combination of belief, will, spirit and other forces.
Different from conventional powers such as internal strength, true energy, mana, and magic power, the domineering system is more inclined to the manifestation of one’s own thoughts.
Moriah, the “Moonlight”, who once challenged Kaido, the “Hundred Beasts”, and Crocodile, the “King of the Desert”, who once fought Douglas Barrett, the “Devil’s Heir”, and challenged Edward Newgate, the “Whitebeard”…
To say that they don’t understand domineering is obviously a joke.
When Moriah challenged Kaido, Kaido had already participated in the Battle of God Valley where the top powerful warriors of the sea gathered.
He already had a physique that allowed him to join the Rocks Pirates as a trainee, and now he has been enhanced by the Fish-Fish Fruit, the Mythical Beast Type, Blue Dragon Form, which is the top-level Mythical Beast Type Devil Fruit.
Even if such strength is not enough for him to reach the top of the sea like in later generations, he must be the first sequence below the ceiling.
Otherwise, the two sword strikes from Kozuki Oden would not have only left a cross-shaped scar on his chest, but would have directly cut him into several pieces.
Similarly, when Crocodile ventured into the New World, Douglas Barrett had already trained in the Roger Pirates for several years, and Edward Newgate, who he challenged later, was an eyewitness to the Battle of God Valley.
No matter how badly Moria and Crocodile were defeated by Kaido and Edward Newgate, at least they both saved their lives.
If it were an ordinary minion, it would still be a question whether he could enter the new world and meet these two.
However, even the World Government recognized their talent and strength, and invited them to become the “Seven Warlords of the Sea”, hoping to use them to counterbalance Moriah and Crocodile, who were becoming more and more numerous and crazy pirates on the sea.
After his mind collapsed, he was defeated by Monkey D. Luffy, a rookie whose fruit development was not very high and who had not mastered Haki. The only thing worth mentioning was that his grandfather Monkey D. Garp had trained him with devilish skills since he was a child and helped him build a good physical foundation…
Therefore, Si Chen chose to divide the domineering system and the power system in the conventional sense into different areas.
The spiritual power in his main world is a relatively conventional power.
Whether it is the form in which spiritual power remains in the body, or the various methods of using it that have been developed in this world, they are more in line with ordinary people’s imagination of extraordinary powers.
Unfortunately, in the previous attempts, Si Chen had tried to awaken his spiritual power in the conventional way of this world, and also tried to cheat through the entry system like he obtained the three colors of domineering in the pirate world, but he failed to get the spiritual power entry.
I don’t know if it will succeed this time…
With a bit of anticipation and trepidation, he held Kaguya’s hand with one hand and Eirin’s hand with the other.
The four hands were clasped, and as the spiritual powers of the two people blended in their bodies, Si Chen, who was no longer afraid of consumption in the sun, also unlocked his genetic lock and carefully felt the feeling of spiritual power flowing through his body.
[You have obtained a new entry——[Spiritual Power (Lv.1)]]【025】Visualization method, Tai Chi diagram (old version)
[Spiritual Power (Lv.1)][All things in the world have spirits. Lighting up the innate spirituality of the self is spiritual power.]The annotations given to spiritual power by the entry system seem quite mysterious.
“Successful?”
The spiritual power awakened, and the two people who each had a spiritual power in Si Chen’s body discovered it at the first time, and Kaguya Houraisan said happily.
“Yes, it worked.”
Si Chen loosened his hands from the two people and raised them in front of him. A faint white light flowed across his fingertips.
“Very high quality.”
After sensing the faint white light, Bayi Yonglin spoke.
In the spiritual power system, without considering special circumstances such as possession by gods, there are two factors that determine strength.
One is the purity of one’s spirituality.
The purer the spirituality of the Self, the higher the quality of the spiritual power will be after awakening.
The second is the cultivation of the mind and spirit.
The transformation of the mind can bring about spiritual improvement, and spiritual improvement means the improvement of spiritual power.
“Nothing more specific?”
I thought the awakening method of visualizing one’s inner self and realizing one’s true self was abstract enough. After listening to the method of cultivating spiritual power, Si Chen could only say that there is no most abstract, only more abstract.
“for example……?”
Bayei Eirin asked back.
“For example, specific techniques or something like that.”
Si Chen gave a few examples: “Like breathing exercises, refining qi and concentrating the mind, and communicating with the underworld…”
“All you said is fine.”
Bayi Eirin nodded.
What does it mean?
“The essence of cultivation is to elevate the realm of the mind. All of what you said can help people put aside distracting thoughts and focus on self-realization, so I say it’s all fine.”
Seeing that Si Chen was still a little confused, Bayi Yonglin gave him an example: “For example, the priestesses in Japan, their method of cultivation is basically to visualize the gods they worship. Every time the image of the god becomes clearer in their minds, the spiritual power in their bodies will increase.”
“On my way back this time, I met a miko with extremely strong spiritual power. She gave me the feeling that she could handle even a normal big monster.”
Si Chen spoke doubtfully about Cui Zi’s situation: “But according to her, the shrine she worshipped seemed to have been destroyed by monsters a long time ago…”
“It doesn’t matter.”
Bayi Yonglin explained: “Visualization is visualization, faith is faith, and gods are gods. As long as you can understand the difference, to put it bluntly, what does visualizing you have to do with you?
“I’ve lived through the craziest times in this world.
“At that time, gods walked the earth. Even if they lived in seclusion in the mountains, news of the death of gods could be heard every once in a while.
“Although a considerable number of fallen gods died in the wars between gods, some also fell at the hands of ‘believers’ who viewed them as objects of visualization, simply because the believers felt that the god did not meet the perfect image in their minds.”
What does it have to do with you to visualize you?
Si Chen recited these words silently, as if thinking about something.
After a moment, a Tai Chi diagram with clear black and white and yin and yang fish rotating clockwise slowly took shape in my mind.
At the beginning, he tried to visualize the primordial chaos of “qi”, “form” and “matter” that was widely present in myths of various countries before the separation of heaven and earth.
Then he discovered that the reason this method of cultivating the mind is called visualization rather than fantasy is because before you start visualizing, you must at least have a roughly clear understanding of the object of your visualization.
Otherwise, let alone using visualization to concentrate your mind, it would be good enough if you can control your thoughts from wandering.
Why do believers like shrine maidens often choose their own gods as their first choice of object of visualization?
Isn’t it because faith can be established that the god must have an image in the minds of believers that may not be complete but has already been formed?
Those “believers” mentioned by Yagi Eirin who feel that the gods do not meet their expectations and thus launch a magnificent betrayal against the gods are probably the manifestation of the sense of difference brought about by this one-sided visualization, which has evolved into paranoia over time.
After failing to visualize chaos, Si Chen turned his attention to the Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram passed down by his ancestors.
The image of the yin and yang fish, clearly distinguished in black and white and entangled with each other, was very familiar to him.
Before crossing over, he had a sudden urge to practice calligraphy, and one of the calligraphy books happened to be the Tao Te Ching…
[[Spiritual Power (Lv. 1)] Gain 1 experience point][[Spiritual Power (Lv. 1)] The current level experience value is full, and can be upgraded to a higher level][[Spiritual Power (Lv.1)] has been upgraded to [Spiritual Power (Lv.2)]]Just try it out.
Although I don’t quite understand what kind of improvement in my state of mind I have achieved in the process of visualizing the Tai Chi diagram, but since the entry system says it has, I will just take it as it has.
As the level increases, the light emitted by the spiritual power lingering on the fingertips becomes thicker.
“What is Father visualizing?”
After he finished his meditation and opened his eyes, Kaguya Houraisan beside him asked curiously.
“Of course it’s you…”
He had just wanted to make a joke with Kaguya, but found that before he could finish his sentence, Bayi Eirin on the other side had already looked over at him. Si Chen coughed and said, “Okay, this is what I am visualizing.”
The spiritual power at his fingertips transformed into a Tai Chi diagram according to his will.
“I actually had some hope just now, but it was all in vain.”
Kaguya Houraisan wiped the corners of her mouth with her sleeve, she was in a low mood…but her acting was a little exaggerated.
“Yes, it suits you very well.”
Compared to the funny princess, Yagi Eirin was much more serious: “Come with me to the study room later. I have collected some books related to ‘yin’ and ‘yang’. I think they can provide you with some help.”
“Thank you in advance.”
Si Chen hurriedly thanked Bayi Yonglin for his kindness.
Having successfully mastered a new seed of power, he was in a very good mood.
However, while he was happy, he also felt like he had forgotten something.
Kaguya is on the left, Eirin is on the right, Senji…oh, where is Gouzi?
“Did we forget Fairy Lingyue at the door?”
Si Chen looked towards Kaguya of Mount Penglai.
“If it didn’t run away on its own, it should still be here, right?”
Kaguya nodded.
At the same time, in front of the gate of Yongyuan Pavilion.
Fairy Lingyue, who was being talked about, looked at the bamboo building in front of her that was shrouded by a barrier and blinked her narrow eyes slightly.
He has been brought in for such a long time, could there really be something wrong with his body?
【026】The group mission finally appeared (old version)
Take the Forsaken back from the gate.
Faced with Lingyue Fairy’s concerned inquiries, Si Chen, who felt a little embarrassed, put three prey from Ruskaina Island in front of her on the pretext of “Welcome to officially join this family”.
Fairy Lingyue: “!”
They clearly haven’t turned into monsters, so how did these three guys grow so big?
And… such vigorous energy and blood!
Not only is the Qi and blood abundant, but the digestion and absorption speeds are also incredibly fast!
Feeling the changes in her body after eating this beast meat, Fairy Lingyue was extremely surprised.
This is Si Chen.
After feeding Fairy Lingyue, he opened the chat group and planned to share the good news with his friends.
When I joined the group, I saw that the topic being discussed in the group was related to him.
『Cancer of the Earth』: Another day when I failed to comprehend Haki…[sigh.jpg]
Snake Princess: Actually, this situation is normal.
『Snake Princess』: Rather than saying that your progress in comprehending Haki is slow, it’s more like the other sisters are progressing at an unreasonably fast pace.
『Catwoman』: Indeed, especially Gwen!
『Ms. Avalon』: Second?
『Ghost Spider』: Miss Meili, why are you joining in the fun?
『Ghost Spider』: You were able to analyze the essence of domineering through observation on the first day you arrived in that world. If you really practiced, you would be able to master this power on the first day, right?
『Ms. Avalon』: That’s an exaggeration. It might take… three days?
“Cancer of the Earth”: …
『Ghost Spider』: See, three days at most.
“Ghost Spider”: Moreover, Selina, if you had not comprehended the Observation Haki and only come to Ruskaina every now and then, with your talent, you might have comprehended the Armament Haki by now.
『Catwoman』: Observation Haki also needs to be practiced. I already spend nearly half of every night wandering the streets of Gotham and improving my proficiency in Observation Haki, okay?
『Ghost Spider』: What about the remaining half?
Catwoman: Don’t you guys sleep?
“Blizzard of Hell”: That daytime…
『Catwoman』: Of course, to enjoy life!
『Catwoman』: If money is just sitting in the account, what’s the point of having so much money? !
『Cancer of the Earth』: Lazy Cat (Convinced
『Catwoman』: Tsk~!
『Catwoman』: By the way, have you forgotten that there is someone even more outrageous in the group?
『Cancer of the Earth』: Actually, I haven’t forgotten.
『Cancer of the Earth』: It’s just that his case is special. One time when you were not around, we discussed it and unanimously decided to kick him out of the regular sequence like Miss Mary.
Recalling the scene when Si Chen swung his knife and the red blade light directly cut through the sea surface for several miles.
The pink-haired girl raised her hand to touch her forehead.
After he joined the group, I saw his nickname and felt that finally an ordinary person like me had joined.
“Cancer of the Earth”: Speaking of Mr. Si Chen…what day is this?
『Snake Princess』: The seventh day.
『Snake Princess』: I don’t know if he has arrived home yet.
『Ordinary People』: Just got back a few hours ago.
『Cancer of the Earth』: Hey, Mr. Si Chen, you are here?
『Ordinary People』: Yeah.
『Ordinary People』: I should have told you when I arrived, but something else happened and I was delayed.
“Cancer of the Earth”: How do you say it?
『Ordinary People』: …See for yourself.
『Ordinary People』:[picture.jpg]
Si Chen posted a photo of the Tai Chi diagram derived from the spiritual power in his hand in the group.
“Ms. Avalon”: Success?
Si Chen has been trying to cultivate the spiritual power of his world recently. He told other people about this when he went to Ruskaina Island to practice.
And the Tai Chi diagram in this picture doesn’t look like something that can be created by Bai Qi at all.
『Ordinary People』: Well, I tried it again after I came back this time, and finally it worked.
『Ordinary People』: That’s right.
[Group reminder: Group member ‘Ordinary People’ sent a designated red envelope to ‘Ms. Avalon’]『Ordinary People』: I have finally saved enough.
『Ms. Avalon』: I told you not to be so hasty~
After clicking on the red envelope, 100 points were credited to the account, Mary replied in the group.
『Ordinary People』: Anyway, there is nothing to spend for the time being, so it is better to settle the account early so that I don’t have to worry about it all the time.
『Cancer of the Earth』: There really wasn’t much to spend points on before, but isn’t the situation different after the upgrade?
“Ordinary People”: Then tell me which of the current functions is worth spending money on.
“Cancer of the Earth”: Lottery?
『Ordinary people』:?
“Cancer of the Earth”: Okay, let’s skip this. [Covering face.jpg]As the first person in the group to try ten consecutive draws and then win eleven consolation prizes, she directly discouraged other group members who were planning to try the lottery. Fujiwara Chika felt that she was somewhat self-humiliating by bringing this up on her own initiative.
“Cancer of the Earth”: What about the mall?
『Cancer of the Earth』: Although most things are a bit expensive, there are indeed some good things every time you refresh. What if the next time you refresh a product that you can use, it will pop up?
“Ordinary people”: As a person who has been through it all, I can teach you some life experience.
『Ordinary People』: As long as I don’t visit the mall, it will never be possible for the mall to find what I need!
“Ms. Avalon”: You are a bit idealistic.
『Ms. Avalon』: But then again, before upgrading, you can only earn points by signing in, and after upgrading, you can still only earn points by signing in… The channels for earning points in the chat group are indeed a bit limited, which makes me worry that I will spend all the points in the early stage, and then I will have nowhere to find them when I really need them in the future, and I can only give up those things I originally wanted to buy as a collection.
『Ghost Spider』: Almost.
『Ghost Spider』: I have seen several products in the mall these days that I am interested in, but unfortunately none of them are affordable for me.
『Catwoman』: I couldn’t agree more.
“Blizzard of Hell”: +1
Meili’s complaint made Si Chen and Fujiwara Chika who were chatting with her feel shocked.
Those who were peeking at the screen also expressed their agreement.
“Cancer of the Earth”: @Group system, come out and get beaten!
『Cancer of the Earth』: Or at least a mission.
『Catwoman』: Just thinking about it, you know this is impossible…
Selina complained.
Normally, if it is a successful @, when the message is sent, the @ symbol and the name of the designated person will change to another color, but Fujiwara Chika’s previous one did not change color, which means…
?
Selina was stunned when she saw the latest announcement displayed on the group chat interface.
[Group announcement: A commission from the will of the █████ world has been detected, and the commission content has been posted on the taskbar]『Catwoman』: Stop it, hurry up, @group system, tell it to give me 100 million points immediately, right now, right now!
『Ghost Spider』: I want a billion!
『Ordinary People』: Then I will ask for 10 billion first, and if it is not enough, I can make up for it later.
【027】The true destruction of the world depends on the will of the world (old version)
Asking Fujiwara Chika@group system to transfer money to everyone is of course a joke.
After cooperating and teasing with Fujiwara Chika in the group system who pretended to @ the group system a few seconds before the group system received the commission, everyone looked at the task interface.

Si Chen thought of this anime. He initially watched it for its zombie theme, but the more he watched it, the more he felt something was wrong. In the end, since he couldn’t figure out what was wrong specifically, he could only save it to the local disk (F:) and keep it for later consideration.
Strictly speaking, the zombies in this world view do not have a specific name. In the original work, from the perspective of the protagonists, they are simply called “them”. Only in later translated versions did the term “dead bodies” come into being.
If we only look at the performance in the original work, the corpses should not become a world-class crisis in the face of the firepower of modern society. After all, the only way they can infect their targets is through direct contact such as “scratching and biting”.
Not to mention those strategic-level weapons of mass destruction.
Artillery fire, armored troops moving in, coupled with sufficient ammunition supplies, this silky little combo is enough to kill as many corpses as possible.
But if there is an additional box that is most likely stolen from the Umbrella Corporation on the Resident Evil set next door, and with the six T viruses and six T virus serums… everything is really hard to say.
All I can say is that villains and demon kings are just for fun.
If the world really wants to be destroyed, it depends on the will of the world.
Return to the chat interface.
By this time, everyone else had basically finished reading the task information.
『Ms. Avalon』: First of all, let me make one thing clear… This mission should be quite difficult and dangerous. According to the mission description, before the unexpected incident, the crisis in that world could have already led to the end of human civilization, so is there anyone who wants to quit?
“Cancer of the Earth”: QAQ
『Ms. Avalon』: Chika-chan, you’re not going?
『Cancer of the Earth』: Although I am also greedy for the total of 30,000 points, but in this kind of situation, I will obviously only become a burden to you if I go there…
“Ms. Avalon”: If that’s all you’re worried about, you can sign up. Don’t leave me too far away, and just follow me to broaden your horizons.
『Cancer of the Earth』: Miss Meili~[Hug.jpg]
『Ms. Avalon』: Hmm☆~
『Ms. Avalon』: So besides Chika-chan, is there anyone else who wants to quit?
『Catwoman』: No more.
『Ghost Spider』: No more.
Snake Princess: No more.
『Blizzard of Hell』: No more.
『Ordinary people』: If there is no function of time-space gap, some people may still find it inconvenient to get away, but now there is a time-space gap. No matter how long you are away, it only takes a moment to go back. There is no reason not to fight for the points that are delivered to your door.
Ms. Avalon: That’s right.
“Ms. Avalon”: Then let’s get ready. Let’s set off now before those lucky people are dead?
『Cancer of the Earth』: No problem!
The bed is in the owner’s city, on the rooftop of the teaching building of the high school of the private Fujimi Academy.
Seven figures, one man and six women, appeared out of nowhere.
“This taste…”
After landing, the smell of blood and stench coming with the wind made Fujiwara Chika frown.
“Is this… a zombie?”
Coming to the edge of the rooftop and looking down, Gwen saw the figures wandering below, and the first thing she thought of was a classic theme in horror movies.
“It seems so.”
Selina nodded and reminded Hancock and the others who might not know what zombies are: “Be careful when you act later. The basic setting of these things is that if you are scratched or bitten by them, you will be infected and become one of them. And it is not certain whether the virus can be transmitted through the air.”
“You can rest assured about that.”
A gorgeous purple light flashed in Meili’s eyes: “I just checked, and there is nothing ‘abnormal’ in the air composition here.”
“That’s good.”
Gwen breathed a sigh of relief.
“Let’s take a look at the task interface first. After we came here, the points share associated with the five luckiest people has been refreshed.”
Si Chen on the side spoke up.
As he spoke, he had already opened the task interface.
Busujima Saeko, 18,000 points; Miyamoto Rei, 3,000 points; Marikawa Shizuka, 3,000 points; Takagi Saya, 3,000 points; Ciri Alice, 3,000 points.
Although he guessed that the protagonist group had most likely suffered casualties when he saw the mission content and the number of surviving lucky people, the fact that even the protagonist, Komuro Takashi, was missing really surprised him.
Furthermore… five people have a total of 30,000 points, and you alone account for 18,000 of them. Can you say that you are worthy of being the admired Busujima Saeko?
“Your clairvoyance…”
Si Chen looked at Meili.
“I’ve already said this when I was with Hancock. Because I lack the necessary ‘foundation’, it’s impossible for me to see everything in this world directly outside like I can at home.”
Meili shook her head. “The so-called highest level of clairvoyance is just an ordinary magic here.”
“So what can you see now with your ordinary magic trick?”
“Hmm…”
Meili pointed to the teaching building below her feet: “In the reference room, there are several student files. Their names happen to be Saeko Busujima, Rei Miyamoto, Saya Takagi, and there is also an identity badge of the school doctor. Her name is Shizuka Marikawa.”
Then, without waiting for Chika Fujiwara and the others to comment, she pointed to the distance and said, “In that direction, about 13 kilometers away, there is a US military base. There are nine survivors in total. Four of them look like the four names in the archives. There is also a little girl of eight or nine years old. The people next to her seem to call her Alice.”
Others on the rooftop: “…”
Hasn’t this already been seen?
【028】Find the mission target (old version)
Chat group: People in Zongman, unlimited entry upgrades: [028] Find the mission target picture and text
Bed master naval base.
This is a military base of the U.S. military stationed in Japan located in the northwest corner of Kyushu Island. It is surrounded by the sea on three sides and has a natural harbor on the west side. The only land connection with Kyushu on the southeast side is a long and narrow “neck” of the sea on both sides of the road after the highway is built.
The four words “easy to defend and difficult to attack” could not be more appropriate for it.
At this time, on the road connecting the base and Kyushu.
A girl with purple hair and blue eyes, holding the famous sword Murata, rushed recklessly into the group of corpses.
Every time he dodged, a dead body would have its head chopped off by the sharp blade.
There is no need to worry about missing any fish, because the two companions on the left and right sides, each holding a spear, will be your solid backup;
There was no need to worry about rushing too fast and getting surrounded by zombies, because there was always a sniper with an anti-material sniper rifle in the military base behind them, keeping an eye on the situation here. The observer next to the sniper would also send a signal to notify them to retreat before a large group of zombies appeared at the end of the road.
The most important thing is that although the infected corpses still retain their general human form, these creatures that feed on humans or any other living things are obviously no longer human, so he can use them to vent his violence as he pleases…
“Saeko, we have exceeded the third safety line.”
Amid the sounds of blades slicing through limbs and decapitated bodies falling to the ground, a voice suddenly rang out: “Let’s recover our strength before we officially enter the urban area.”
“OK.”
Her mind regained some clarity, and Busujima Saeko responded and stopped.
After she slashed the corpses that were attracted to her by them and killed them, she took a bar of chocolate from her companion, Miyamoto Rei, who was also her classmate at Fujimi Academy High School before the zombie crisis broke out.
As for the other companion who had just spoken to wake her up, Miyamoto Rei’s mother, Miyamoto Kiriko, she climbed to a high place when the two girls were resting and looked around, so as to avoid an irreparable tragedy caused by a moment of carelessness.
Suddenly, a voice full of disbelief came from the three people’s headphones: “What, what is that?!”
Any situation?
Busujima Saeko immediately put down the chocolate she had just taken two bites of and stood on guard with a knife. Miyamoto Rei also held the spear in her hand across her body.
Following the instructions in the earphones, the three looked toward the urban area in front of them.
That is the destination where they will search for supplies.
Then they understood why there was a scream coming from the headphones –
In the urban area with tall buildings, there were two human figures flying between the rooftops at a speed that definitely exceeded that of a high-speed car. Judging from their direction, they were coming towards them!
“Is this the mutant Yuriko mentioned?”
Miyamoto Kiriko was surprised and said, “They actually had the ability to cross the ocean and come here from North America so quickly… Or does that organization also have a branch base in Japan?”
“There’s no time to think about that, aunt.”
Busujima Saeko adopted the defensive stance of Busujima-ryu swordsmanship: “You and Rei retreat to the base immediately. I will stay here to fend them off and see if I can give Minami Rika a chance to shoot.”
“…Okay, be careful yourself.”
Indecision in the end times will only lead to more sacrifices.
Knowing that with the speed displayed by the two figures, she and her daughter would only become a burden to Busujima Saeko if they stayed here, Miyamoto Kiriko did not hesitate.
After leaving a word of concern to Busujima Saeko, she decisively pulled Miyamoto Rei and ran towards the military jeep that had been placed a few meters away as a sign of the safety line and could be ignited at any time.
“It sounds like you guys seem to know something about the mastermind behind all this. Would you mind telling me in detail?”
After taking only two steps, the mother and daughter stopped in their tracks.
Pale pink petals fall.
The young man appeared out of nowhere, standing between them and the jeep, and politely asked Miyamoto Kiriko.
brush–
Miyamoto Kiriko did not respond, but raised the spear in her hand and pointed the tip at the young man.
“Don’t be so vigilant. We have no ill will towards you.”
From the eyes of the two people who looked like mother and daughter, Si Chen saw determination. He slightly turned sideways to avoid the sniper rifle bullet that was fired at his torso from the observation tower of the military base in the rear. Then, in the shocked eyes of the mother and daughter, he continued: “Let’s take a step back and say that if we really had any ill intentions towards you, you would not be able to resist.”
As he spoke, he swung his knife to the side.
The flying slash spanned hundreds of meters, cutting the sea apart, and at the same time, it also cut off the fighting will of Miyamoto Kiriko, who was originally planning to risk her life to buy a chance for her daughter.
Just at this moment, the two figures rushing towards this direction from the urban area – Gwen and Selina, have also arrived in front of Busujima Saeko. After Gwen arrived, she snatched the Murata sword from her hand with lightning speed before Busujima Saeko could react.
“Okay, you guys can come out now.”
Si Chen turned his head and looked at the empty space beside him: “Except for this lady whose weapon Gwen has taken away, I can no longer sense any hostility from them or the other women in the base… or should I say, I can no longer sense any desire to continue fighting with us?”
The same light pink petals fell as when he appeared, and Fujiwara Chika, Fubuki, Hancock and Merry Benri, who had previously been hidden under Merry’s illusion, also revealed themselves in the real world.
“Bukujima Saeko, Miyamoto Rei… it’s you, right?”
Holding two photos taken from the Fujimi Academy archives, Fubuki confirmed with the two girls.
No response from the parties is required.
When she read out the two names, the seven group members saw a faint glow on Busujima Saeko and Miyamoto Rei’s bodies.
Although the light only lasted for a moment and then quickly disappeared, it was enough for the group members to lock on to the target of the mission.
“Who…are you?”
Miyamoto Kiriko, the only one among the three who was not named, asked in a deep voice.
“From a position point of view, I am here to help you. There is no doubt about that.”
Si Chen gestured to the base not far away: “Would you mind waiting until we meet your companions before introducing yourself? This will save me from having to repeat myself later.”
【029】Information from Yuriko Takagi (old version)
Chat group: People in Zongman, unlimited entry upgrades: [029] Information from Takashiro Yuriko
A little later.
Inside the base.
After listening to Si Chen’s explanation of the purpose of the chat group’s visit –
Find them, rescue them from danger, and ensure they have the ability to continue to survive in a world now filled with the dead.
Busushima Saeko, Miyamoto Rei, Miyamoto Kiriko, Takagi Saya, Takagi Yuriko, Marikawa Shizuka, Minami Rika, Kiri Alice, Nakaoka Asami.
These nine people, confirmed by Mary’s clairvoyance to be the last survivors of Bedmaster City, looked at each other in bewilderment.
Although they have been longing for rescue and support from the outside world since the outbreak of the corpse crisis, even though they learned through the equipment originally belonging to the US military in the base that the whole world has fallen, there are still people stationed in the communication room in shifts 24 hours a day, so that they can receive and respond to the signal as soon as possible.
But isn’t this development a bit incredible?
“Aliens? People from the future? People with super powers from the other world?”
Saya Takagi asked three questions in one second, and put forward three guesses that she would never have thought of before the zombie crisis broke out.
“Um……”
Si Chen hesitated for a moment: “Guess?”
Takagi Saya: “…”
Calm down, calm down, don’t get angry.
This guy can split the sea with a single wave of his knife. Don’t mess with him.
“Just kidding~”
Meili beside her smiled and took over the conversation: “Mainly given the current situation, no matter what we say, you won’t believe it, right?”
Survivors: “…”
To be honest, it is true.
If Selina and Gwen can treat tall buildings as flat ground and run at speeds faster than cars in horizontal and vertical places ranging from a few meters to dozens of meters, it can also be explained by the fact that they did not become dead after the infection, but instead underwent other types of mutations.
The light pink petals that Si Chen split the sea with a casual wave of his hand, and the fact that there was no sign of abnormality with the naked eye or the military equipment in the base before they showed up on their own initiative, did not seem like a simple biological mutation.
Therefore, no matter how reasonable the statements made by these people are on a logical level.
They could neither believe it nor dared to believe it completely.
“By the same token, why do we do this, and whether someone asked us to do this… You can use your imagination to imagine these aspects.”
Seeing that the survivors were silent, Si Chen continued, “Also, there is no need to doubt whether we caused all this. We are not responsible for this.”
“!”
A survivor across from him started suddenly.
“It’s not mind reading, it’s just that your expression is so easy to understand.”
Is it that obvious?
“Well, we don’t actually have too many doubts about this.”
Takashiro Yuriko, who had long purple hair and a more mature temperament than most of the girls present, came to the rescue, “As for the source of the dead bodies, we already had a guess.”
“That’s exactly what we were planning to ask you about.”
Si Chen, who had shown up on his own initiative because he had heard something related from Miyamoto Kiriko’s mumbling, looked at the noble lady and said, “Would you mind telling me more, ma’am?”
“What I know may not be complete…”
Takagi Yuriko glanced at Takagi Saya and Miyamoto Rei with a degree that was barely noticed by Si Chen and Mei Li, and said, “In North America, there is an international monopoly company involved in most high-tech industries, including pharmaceuticals, medical hardware, and defense industry products. It is called Umbrella, also known as the Umbrella Corporation.
“As far as I know, at least 20 years ago, this company had already mastered genetic engineering and life engineering technologies that seem like science fiction even now.”
“Before returning to Japan, I worked on Wall Street. Due to some business issues, I inevitably had some contact with umbrella companies like my colleagues on Wall Street.
“Under the guidance of a senior executive of Umbrella Corporation, I visited a secret research base of that company.
“Inside the base at that time, the Umbrella Corporation already had the ability to transform humans into weapons without thoughts or feelings of pain, who only knew how to mechanically obey orders. They could perfectly perform tasks that would inevitably result in considerable casualties if done by humans.”
“The biological weapons you saw in the Umbrella Corporation base are the ones that are now spreading around the world?” Si Chen confirmed.
“Somewhat similar, but not the same.”
Takagi Yuriko thought for a moment and added, “Or in other words, those outside are more like the basic or degraded versions of Umbrella Corporation’s biological weapons.
“There were two types of biological weapons that the Umbrella Corporation executive showed me.
“The first type is codenamed ‘Licker’. Its eyes have degenerated, but its hearing is extremely sharp. It can detect anything, whether it’s walking, running, or even the slightest breathing or heartbeat. Its strong limbs and sharp claws allow it to flexibly climb on walls or roofs. Its excellent jumping ability and swift movement speed can dodge automatic fire. Its alienated tongue can penetrate two or three centimeters thick steel.
“The second type is codenamed ‘Nemesis’, also known as ‘Chaser’. It can be equipped with a six-barreled machine gun, a rocket launcher, or other weapons depending on the tactical objectives it wants to achieve. The external biological armor can withstand attacks from full-power rifle bullets, even machine gun bullets, and sniper bullets. One can wipe out an entire modern army.”
Are you really just going to sew the Resident Evil directly?
“According to what you said, the culprit for the world becoming what it is now can be basically identified.”
Si Chen touched his chin and said, “However, with the current level of technology in the world, even if other countries are not as good as Umbrella in terms of biotechnology, there is no reason for this virus that can only be transmitted from person to person to affect the entire world in such a short period of time… Do you have any idea about this?”
Takashiro Yuriko shook her head. “The reason why I gave up my career on Wall Street and returned to Japan was because the development of Umbrella has always been restricted by the joint efforts of various countries, especially the headquarters in North America and the areas outside the African test sites. It is said that as long as any trace of Umbrella is found, countries have the right to directly dispatch troops.”
He thought he could escape back to Japan and reach a cooperation with Soichiro Takagi, who had considerable connections in the Japanese high-level circles. He would provide him with the funds he brought back from Wall Street and help him develop the Kokukoku Isshinkai. In the name of a husband and a father, he would provide shelter for himself and Saya, the ‘gift’ brought back from the Umbrella, which was enough to deal with the threat of the Umbrella.
Who would have thought that after more than a decade of peace, the next time we saw something that was suspected to be the creation of the Umbrella Corporation, it would be in this “the whole world is on the verge of destruction” way…
【030】Base, supplies, antitoxin serum (old version)
『Ordinary people』: I didn’t lie, I told the truth.
『Ordinary People』: Of course, it is possible that she was kept in the dark from the beginning.
After Takagi Yuriko finished speaking, Si Chen, who was using the Observation Haki technique, spoke in the group.
“Ms. Avalon”: I didn’t see any signs of her lying while she was talking.
“Blizzard of Hell”: If both of you make this judgment, there should be no doubt about it.
“Cancer of the Earth”: In such a short period of time, the whole world has been turned into a horrible state like Bedzhu City… It’s hard to believe that this was just an accident.
“Cancer of the Earth”: This Umbrella Corporation is too scary.
『Catwoman』: This is what happens when technology that’s ahead of its time gets out of control.
『Catwoman』: But it’s mainly because the Umbrella Corporation is the only dominant force in this world, and there is no individual or force that can truly check and balance it.
“Ordinary person”: Okay, let’s talk about this later, let’s discuss the mission first.
“Ordinary People”: We have found all five people. The next step is to ensure that they have the ability to survive after we leave. What do you think?
『Ghost Spider』: I have seen some works about the zombie apocalypse worldview in my own world. In this worldview, the key to survival should be “safety” and “life”.
“Ghost Spider”: To be safe, we need to give them a base that can’t be breached by the undead unless they commit suicide, as well as sufficient weapons.
『Ghost Spider』: Life requires them to have sufficient food, fresh water, medicine and other necessary supplies, and it would be best if they also have the ability to manufacture these supplies.
“Cancer of the Earth”: One more thing to add, they also need serum or something like that to protect them from mutating after being bitten by a dead body.
『Ghost Spider』: Oh, yes, I didn’t notice that.
“Ghost Spider”: Considering the Umbrella Corporation’s ability to use corpses as biological weapons at least twenty years ago, they should have anti-venom serum, right?
“Ghost Spider”: No, if there is an anti-venom serum, how could the world become what it is now? Is it really malicious and allowing the infection? But what does the Umbrella Corporation want by turning the world into this?
“Ordinary People”: Maybe the company’s top executives think that the world today is too filthy, and they plan to use corpses to act as a flood to purify the planet and then become the gods of the new world?
『Cancer of the Earth』: It’s a great idea, but I’d better not use it next time [covering face.jpg]“Cancer of the Earth”: Let’s not talk about the current situation where the whole world is filled with corpses. How are the top executives of the Umbrella Corporation going to deal with it? Even if there is a way to deal with it, by then there will only be a small group of people like them left in the world. Do they have to rebuild the new world by themselves, starting from building houses?
Ms. Avalon: Not necessarily.
『Cancer of the Earth』:?!
『Ghost Spider』: Did Miss Mary find anything?
“Ms. Avalon”: No, it’s just a guess.
“Ms. Avalon”: Although I am just a magician who lived 1,500 years ago and don’t understand modern technology very well, Umbrella has mastered the technology to create biological weapons that can be used on the battlefield twenty years ago. Now, twenty years have passed, and they have mastered the technology to mass-produce “tool men” by only keeping a few “samples”. This should be within reason, right?
While speaking, Meili looked at the two pairs of mother and daughter, Yuriko and Saya Takagi, and Kiriko and Rei Miyamoto, and seemed to have discovered something interesting.
While Meili was looking at the four girls, Si Chen was looking at her.
‘Brother Sichen?’
Feeling Si Chen’s gaze, Meili sent him a message.
‘nothing.’
Si Chen shook his head slightly.
I just think your guess is pretty accurate.
He currently doesn’t know whether this world’s umbrella has this technology.
But the Umbrella Corporation in the world view of the Resident Evil movie series has really developed to the point where it can establish a cloning assembly line.
“Ordinary People”: Let’s get back to the topic.
“Ordinary People”: To sum it up briefly, it means a more reliable base than the current military base, enough supplies or supply production lines for them to use for decades, plus anti-venom serum that can save them if they are accidentally bitten. Is there anything else?
『Ms. Avalon』: No, I’ll add more later if I think of anything else.
“Cancer of the Earth”: +1
『Ghost Spider』: +1
Catwoman: +1
“Ordinary People”: Hancock? @蛇姬
Si Chen circled a little girl who had been exceptionally silent since coming to this world and now looked like she was in a trance.
『Snake Queen』: No, no, Mr. Si Chen, you can arrange it.
Snake Princess: You all know more or less what’s going on in my world. Although Miss Meili has confirmed that the “world” composed of the Four Seas, the Grand Line, and the Red Earth Continent is located on the same planet as yours, to be honest, the “technology” in my world and the “technology” in this world are almost two different types, not to mention that we, the Nine Snakes, are not even good at the technology of that world…
『Ordinary People』: Okay, that’s what I told them.
After organizing his thoughts a bit, Si Chen summarized the matters that had been agreed upon in the group to the nine people and asked for their opinions.
“Can’t you just take us away? Take us to where you live… There shouldn’t be any dead bodies there, right?”
Hu Ya bit her lower lip lightly. Even though she could tell from Si Chen’s words that the possibility was extremely small, Takagi Saya still asked with a one in a billion chance of success.
“If possible, this would be a time-saving, labor-saving and trouble-free option for us, but, unfortunately…”
Si Chen shook his head slightly under the gaze of the nine people opposite him: “The way we go back and forth only applies to us.”
They have tried more than once in the past to see whether the bug transmission of group tasks can be applied to people other than group members.
The result is without exception: no.
In other words, this method of transmission is not so much a bug as it is a mechanism that already exists in the chat group, but it is not directly displayed in the group function interface like check-in, tasks, mall and other functions.
“All right……”
Saya Takagi’s mood visibly dropped for a moment, but she quickly picked herself up again.
“As for where we will go if this military base is breached by corpses one day in the future, or if we choose to leave on our own initiative, we have had some discussions in the past few days. I hope I can provide you with some reference.”
She took out a world map from her bag, spread it out, and Takagi Saya’s fingertips landed at the bottom of the map: “The best place we have chosen is Antarctica.
“After these days of observation, we found that ordinary corpses seem to still have a need for oxygen like humans. After being burned by flames, they will lose their ability to move after walking a short distance. The corpses cannot swim, which is why we can rely on the surrounding waters to build a defense line outside this base.
“Antarctica is surrounded by sea on all sides and is the least developed region by humans. Even if the original people or other creatures there have mutated like those in the outside world, we guess that the probability of encountering danger there will be smaller than in other places.
“Moreover, the extremely cold environment of the Antarctic continent can effectively help us preserve our supplies and slow down their deterioration…”
【031】Meili Assistant is now online (old version)
Chat group: People in Zongman, unlimited entry upgrades: [031] Meili’s assistant is officially online with pictures and texts
The benefits of choosing Antarctica to build a new base were listed one by one by Saya Takagi.
After talking about the benefits, she paused for a moment and then began to talk about the difficulties of actually doing so.
First of all.
distance.
The coordinates of the Bed Master Naval Base where they are now are more than 30 degrees north latitude, and the Antarctic continent is basically within the Antarctic Circle above 66 degrees and 34 minutes south latitude.
This means that even if they walk in a straight line all the way, they will still have to travel tens of thousands of kilometers to reach their destination.
However, this kind of relocation for the purpose of survival cannot be done by just picking up a bag and setting off.
Food, fresh water, energy reserves…
Some things can be obtained locally, but some things must be prepared before departure.
The second is the low temperature of Antarctica.
The extreme cold with an average temperature of dozens of degrees below zero can help them store supplies, but if they fail to keep warm, they will probably become the subject of archaeological excavations in the future along with those supplies.
If they don’t want to be frozen into popsicles, the energy they consume every day after moving to Antarctica will not be a small amount.
In comparison, the Antarctic permafrost is not suitable for growing crops or raising animals. After going to Antarctica, there is a high probability that you will have to eat up all the food you have, which becomes a “small problem”.
“…What are you looking at me for?”
Seeing that not only Fujiwara Chika, but also several other group members, including Si Chen, were focusing their attention on her, Meili was speechless: “You really think of me as a wish-making machine, don’t you? Why don’t you just expect me to cast a spell, and all the dead bodies on the entire planet will disappear, and all the related virus infections will be completely purified?”
“May I?”
Fujiwara Chika asked.
“How dare you think of that!”
Mellie’s eyelids twitched.
“In fact, the transportation of materials is the thing we least need to worry about.”
Si Chen spoke, picked up the cup of orange drink on the table, and sent a lucky red envelope to the group.
Half a second later, the drink appeared in Hancock’s hand.
“That’s right, then as long as one person goes there in advance, it will be fine!” The others also realized it.
A little further away.
Although the survivors were not clear about the specific principle, they could guess from the fact that the drink suddenly disappeared from Si Chen’s hand and suddenly appeared in Hancock’s hand that these mysterious people might have mastered the means to teleport objects through space.
It seems that there are no restrictions on this kind of teleportation, as long as there is one person on each side.
“So the next step is to gather as many supplies as possible and then prepare to relocate?”
Fubuki asked the survivors: “There should be some US military supplies in this base. Have you estimated how long it will last you? If we really reach Antarctica, how much will it take to ensure our survival?”
“…This amount of calculation is a bit too much.”
Takagi Saya pulled the corners of her mouth stiffly: “And, to be honest, we haven’t planned such details yet. After all, although after analysis, it feels that Antarctica would be the most ideal place to go, it is somewhat unrealistic for just a few of us to go to Antarctica to start a new life.”
There are nine people in total. The strongest one, Busujima Saeko, even with the power of the famous sword Murata, if she is really surrounded by two or three digit corpses, the only thing she can do is probably to fight hard and die with dignity. As for the weak ones like Ciri and Alice, as a second-grade loli, victory is achieved if she does not fall behind.
With such a lineup, you want to travel thousands of miles to Antarctica with enough supplies for living and even construction?
What a sweet dream!
“Although we haven’t made a specific plan yet, if we only consider the needs of the nine of us, the reserves in this base should be enough.”
When Takagi Saya was a little embarrassed, it was still Takagi Yuriko who came out to save the situation: “This base is the second largest naval base of the US military stationed in Japan. It is the most forward-deployed naval base of the United States in East Asia and the main post-support base. It already has enough supplies for the garrison to use for a period of time. Moreover, when the corpse crisis broke out, there happened to be three fully loaded supply ships and a fully loaded military tanker docked at the port…”
“Then why did I see some of you carrying backpacks and heading to the urban area just now…Is that to search for usable supplies?”
Fujiwara Chika asked in confusion.
“On the one hand, we don’t know when production can be resumed, so the supplies, especially life-saving medicines, will be used up as soon as they are used up. It’s always a good idea to store more while we still have the ability to go out and search.”
This time it was Miyamoto Kiriko who spoke up: “On the other hand, knowing that the outside world is on the verge of destruction, staying in the base for too long may really cause some psychological problems…”
Hearing her sigh, Fujiwara Chika was stunned.
Is this the end of the world?
“Then advance on both sides at the same time?”
Fubuki suggested: “One group of people will be responsible for counting the supplies in the base, and the other group will go into the urban area and collect as many resources as possible, such as medicines, before setting off.”
“You guys stay and take care of things here.”
Si Chen pondered and said, “I will go to Antarctica first, both to clear out the possible threats there and to facilitate receiving your supplies later.”
“Are you going alone?”
Hancock asked.
Si Chen didn’t answer and looked at Meili.
Even if this world is a pure apocalypse worldview, he cannot be sure that he can kill indiscriminately.
In the world before he traveled through time, because the original author passed away, this work forever remained at the point where the protagonists met Miyamoto Rei’s mother, Miyamoto Kiriko, and were on their way to find her father.
In other words, the entire world view of Apocalypse, the information he knew, actually only revealed the tip of the iceberg centered on Bed Master City.
Looking at the situation in Bedmaster City alone, the corpses were just ordinary zombies and did not show any potential for evolution. But don’t forget, it was only a few days before the corpse crisis broke out.
Who can guarantee that after being a corpse for a certain period of time or devouring enough flesh and blood, the corpse will not transform into some other strange thing?
Not to mention the corpses in this world, which were manipulated by the world’s will and mixed with the T virus…
Therefore, Si Chen still felt a little uneasy when he was asked to embark on an unknown journey alone, even though he had the guarantee that “if he really encountered danger, he could just give up the mission and be teleported back home.”
But if Mary were with us, things would be different.
“OK~”
Meili raised her hand and made a gesture that it was all right. A little Meili, only about ten centimeters tall, flew out of her body, crossed her legs and sat on Si Chen’s left shoulder.
【032】Experiences of the survivors (old version)
Half a day later, Arafura Sea.
This is an interisland sea located near ten degrees south latitude, between New Guinea and the northern coast of the Australian continent.
The entire Arafura Sea is located on the continental shelf, so the water is not deep, and the water temperature and salinity are just right, which is suitable for the growth of coral polyps, shellfish, etc. There are a large number of coral reefs and other seafood near the coast.
However, the sea was extremely quiet at this time, with only the sound of waves hitting the rocks under the wind, and…
call–!
The red blade light cut through the sea, splitting a strange fish that was several meters long, had gray flesh, and was obviously infected and dead, into two. The remaining force also left a trench that stretched for hundreds of meters in the shallow sea.
“Brother Sichen, even if you go to my Age of Gods, you will already be a ‘hero’ who can leave your name in mythological epics.”
On her shoulders, Meili, who still maintained her figure-sized body, commented.
“I think the key to becoming a hero is not in me…”
Si Chen shook his head.
At this moment, the reason why he was able to fly away from the constraints of gravity was because of the auxiliary magic cast by Mary.
Except flying.
The “light” that Merry sprinkled on him when he set out could also increase his movement speed and reaction speed, allowing him to quickly recover his physical strength, energy, and mental strength after they were consumed, increase the power of each of his attacks, and give him an invincible shield that could be triggered and exempted from any kind of damage…
And a small three-dimensional map centered on the two of them, based on her highest level of clairvoyance.
The mini-map can display the surrounding terrain in real time, and mark all dead bodies within a certain range as red dots, achieving perfect linkage and complementarity with his own observation Haki.
The all-round assistant is.
“Of course I’m talking about after taking away the benefits I provided you…”
Meili smiled and added: “I can only say that the benefits brought to you by the ‘spiritual power’ of your world far exceed our previous estimates.”
After a little thought, Si Chen nodded slightly.
In other words, after truly mastering the system that can form energy circulation in the body, the qualitative change brought about by the gene lock system is greater than he expected.
There is no conflict between the spiritual power system and the domineering system. He had already anticipated this before awakening his spiritual power.
But even he had not expected that with spiritual power as bones and domineering aura as flesh and blood, after being tuned by the gene lock, he could actually produce an effect of 1+1>2, or even now it is already 1+1>3, allowing a casual attack in his normal state with the two powers to surpass his full-strength attack before awakening his spiritual power.
You know, his current spiritual power attribute is less than Lv.10!
“Let’s not talk about these things for now. Did you notice it just now?”
Si Chen pointed in the direction of the dead fish.
“Hmm… should we say ‘life always finds a way for itself’?”
Meili turned her head and looked to the side, at a sea area that showed several red dots on her small map.
The dead bodies are suspected to need oxygen, so they cannot enter the water. Even if the underwater creatures are infected, they will sink to the bottom quickly due to other reasons.
This is the greatest guarantee that the survivors can rely on the bed owner’s naval base.
The corpses couldn’t swim, which meant that the only road they needed to defend was the one connecting the base to the urban area.
If the number of corpses pouring in from the urban area really exceeds what they can handle, they can just blow up that road and the base will become an invincible safe zone.
However, Si Chen and Mei Li discovered a dead fish that could move freely in the shallow sea area…
“We need to get them to hold on tight.”
Si Chen called out the group chat interface and informed the group members who were still in the bed owner’s city that he had discovered a dead body that could move underwater.
“Cancer of the Earth”: ???
“Cancer of the Earth”: So the water area cannot be considered an absolute safe zone?
“Hell’s Blizzard”: It makes sense if you think about it. For us, swimming is a skill that needs to be learned, but for creatures that originally live in water, it is an instinct that we have mastered since birth, just like our breathing.
“Blizzard of Hell”: As for the waters in Bedmaster City, they are relatively safe for the time being… Maybe it’s because the corpses here haven’t adapted yet?
Catwoman: You might as well say that it’s because five of the nine people are lucky. If we regard this world as a film or TV show, then there is an “editor” and “director” called “World Will” who provides them with the convenience of being the protagonists…
『Ghost Spider』: Good to complain about.
Gwen gave Selina a thumbs up.
During the time after Si Chen left, Bed Master Shi was not idle either.
Meli and her pendant Fujiwara Chika stayed at the base, responsible for ensuring the safety here. Hancock, Fubuki, Gwen, and Selina entered the urban area and searched places like hospitals and pharmacies. After finding something, they didn’t care whether it was useful or not. They just stuffed it into a red envelope and sent it back to Fujiwara Chika.
The survivors were divided into groups of two, busy counting all kinds of supplies in the base. After the grouping, the extra Ciri and Alice were “assigned” to help Fujiwara Chika.
During this process, through communication with Ciri and Alice.
In the live broadcast room opened by Fujiwara Chika, the others also learned the details that the survivors had mentioned a few words earlier: “They fled here after the zombie crisis broke out.”
This team was originally composed of the third-year kendo club captain of the private Fujimi Academy High School, Saeko Busujima, along with second-year Miyamoto Rei, second-year Takagi Saya, and school doctor Shizuka Marikawa.
When the school was attacked by zombies, the four people drove a school bus to escape. Because the bridge leading to the outside world had been destroyed in an explosion, they had to rest for a night in a rental house that was asked to be looked after by a friend of Marikawa Shizuka. They also rescued Ciri and Alice, who was saved by her father at the cost of his life from the group of zombies.
The next day, at Saya Takagi’s suggestion, the group went to her house, hoping to get some help from Saya Takagi’s parents, but when they arrived they found that Takagi’s house had fallen.
If they hadn’t arrived in time, half a minute later, they would probably have seen Takagi’s corpse, Yuriko.
After saving Takagi Yuriko, Busujima Saeko replaced the heirloom wooden sword she had been using with the famous sword Murata, which was already in the collection of Takagi Soichiro.
The group went to Miyamoto’s house and met Asami Nakaoka, a police officer from the Traffic Section of the East Police Station of the bed owner, on the way. After arriving at Miyamoto’s house, they rescued Kiriko Miyamoto who was struggling to hold on on the roof. Later, while looking for other ways out, they met Minami Rika, a good friend of Marikawa Shizuka, who is also a sniper and inspector of the first team of the Special Assault Team (SAT) of the Prefectural Police.
From Minami Rika’s words, they also had a better understanding of the current situation –
The dead bodies are not only found in Chuangzhu City, but in almost the entire world. All countries and regions are as precariously faced as Chuangzhu City is right now, so it is no longer realistic to expect rescue in a short period of time.
However, the US military base in Japan west of Chuangzhu City should not fall so easily.
The group decided to move on the spot.
When they arrived at the bed owner’s naval base, they found that it had also been invaded by the zombies.
The good news is that the base did not become a paradise for corpses almost instantly like the school did. The soldiers put up quite effective resistance when the corpses appeared, and although it fell in the end, there were not many corpses in the base that were still capable of action.
They only need to do some simple cleaning to turn this place into a relatively safe living base.
This whole process, as Selina complained, was so boring that even in a long and boring American TV series, the audience would criticize the screenwriter and director for not using their brains when giving the protagonists cheats.
The whole world of Shente Miao has fallen, and all the military bases where troops are stationed have been breached. Only a makeshift team composed of a few high school students, school doctors, and policemen can survive to the end.
No matter how they looked at it, they all felt that this could only be explained as the luck of those five “lucky people”.
【033】The protagonist’s luck is a good thing (old version)
The higher the luck points of the lucky characters, the greater the benefits will be to the group members in the same camp as them.
Therefore, despite all the complaints, group members are happy to see this “protagonist’s luck”.
For example, after leaving the Arafura Sea, we flew for several hours and finally landed on the Antarctic continent.
“This… by the time they are able to reach Antarctica on their own, there will probably be no enemies on this continent other than ‘Cryogenics’, right?”
Looking at the map of Antarctica that Meili showed him, Si Chen was surprised.
“It seems that the impact of the extreme cold environment on the dead body is more exaggerated than we expected.”
Mellie nodded in agreement.
At this moment, on the map she displayed, there were only a few hundred red dots representing “dead bodies” in the entire Antarctic continent.
However, besides the red dots, there are also dense blue dots of light.
Those are also dead bodies, but they have fallen into hibernation due to the low temperature in Antarctica.
First, they were allowed to meet and flee smoothly in the bed city, and then they thoughtfully prepared a military base with all kinds of energy and supplies, and the US military stationed in Japan and other security risks had been cleared. At the same time, they also started clearing the Antarctic Circle in advance…
It can be seen that the world will has really tried its best to preserve the last seedling of this world.
The only thing that curious him right now was that, since even heroines like Busujima Saeko and Miyamoto Rei could be protected by the world will with such force, then how could the hero Komuro Takashi, who theoretically should be more important than these heroines, just disappear like that?
“Is it according to plan?”
Mellie inquired.
“The number is much less than expected. Let’s follow the first plan we discussed on the way and deal with these corpses that are still able to move first.”
After a brief thought, Si Chen decided: “As for those in hibernation, it won’t be too late to start cleaning up after we have chosen a location based on the specific situation.”
“Okay~”
Meli raised her staff and tapped the map with the tip of it.
All the blue spots of light representing dormant corpses disappeared, leaving only the red spots, and then the map began to zoom in with the two people as the main perspective.
Following the guidance of the small map, Si Chen flew towards the red dot closest to them.
It was a dead body that was mutated from a seal, located on an ice cliff near the coastline…or in other words, almost all the dead bodies on the Antarctic continent are actually on the outer coastline and ice floes, and the red dots in the inland area can be counted on two hands.
Arrive near the target.
Si Chen didn’t go down to do anything fancy and waste time. He just swung a flying slash at the dead body that had been locked by his observation Haki from high altitude, and then turned to the next target point.
Five heads, ten heads, fifteen heads, twenty heads…
In less than two days, all the red dots on Meili’s small map had been cleared. Even after switching to the blue dot mode, it could be seen that along the coordinates where the red dots had once been, a “vacuum zone” had appeared that could form a circle from beginning to end.
『Ordinary People』: Done, call it a day.
Returning to an area where the sun was still shining and enjoying the all-round recovery brought to him by photosynthesis, Si Chen called out the group chat interface and reported the progress on his side.
“Cancer of the Earth”:!
“Cancer of the Earth”: Although I have heard from you, Mr. Si Chen, that the number of corpses that need to be cleaned up immediately on the Antarctic continent is much less than originally thought, but in such a short time…
『Cancer of the Earth』: As expected, I still want to say something so fast!
『Ordinary People』: What about you guys, have they decided which one they want to go to?
The “which” here specifically refers to “which scientific research station”.
Rather than having a group of people who have never even been to Antarctica teach themselves and build a survival base from scratch, both the group members and the survivors have always agreed that it would be more reliable to directly choose experts from various countries to build a scientific research station on the Antarctic continent.
Therefore, while Si Chen was working on cleaning up the dead bodies on the Antarctic continent.
Assistant Meili has sent back to the host city the list of Antarctic research stations she has observed and their general conditions that can be put into use after a simple processing, so that the survivors can choose their favorite stations.
『Cancer of the Earth』: The choice is made, it’s Amundsen-Scott Station.
『Ordinary person』: Wow~ You’re so intense right from the start?
『Normal Man』: I thought it would be McMurdo Station or something like that.
Amundsen-Scott Station, McMurdo Station.
These are all America’s scientific research stations in Antarctica.
The Amundsen-Scott Station chosen by the survivors is a scientific research station located at the southernmost point in the world – the South Pole.
Due to the influence of factors such as snow accumulation and ice movement, the current Amundsen-Scott Station is already a third-generation station, which can accommodate 200 people for research and 50 people for wintering. It has all the facilities for work, entertainment, medical care, and of course network communications. There is even a greenhouse inside for growing vegetables and flowers.
It looks good, but there is a saying that goes “Comparing people will make you die, comparing goods will make you throw them away.”
McMurdo Station is the largest of all the existing Antarctic research stations. It has more than 200 buildings of various types, including more than ten three-story buildings. It has an airport that can take off and land large-scale technology, a large desalination plant, and a large comprehensive restoration plant…
As the management center of the U.S. Antarctic research program and also a comprehensive logistics support base for other U.S. Antarctic research stations, the various infrastructure facilities here are more complete than those of some small cities.
“Ms. Avalon”: Perhaps you were a little scared by the information we provided earlier?
“Ms. Avalon”: By choosing the South Pole, they will still have some room for buffering, even if one day in the future the corpses on land can go into the water, the corpses in aquatic environments can go ashore, and the corpses that are currently dormant in low-temperature environments can withstand the extreme cold of Antarctica.
“Ms. Avalon”: Of course, the more critical thing should be our help. At least they don’t have to worry too much about the transportation of supplies and basic survival issues in the early stage. Therefore, when choosing a site, they can ignore the difficulty and choose a site with higher safety.
『Ordinary People』: That makes sense.
“By the way, Qianhua and I are separated by half a world, so it’s OK that we can only communicate in the group chat, but aren’t you right next to me?”
In reality, Si Chen shrugged his shoulders, causing little Meili, who was sitting on his shoulders, to shake as well.
“Of course it’s to make it more ceremonial☆~”
Mary, who had been able to sit steadily even when flying and swinging the sword before, certainly would not be unable to sit still because of such a small shake. She even had the leisure to wink at Si Chen when he looked at her.
【034】Umbrella base built under Raccoon City (old version)
The relocation project went smoothly after Si Chen arrived at the Amundsen-Scott Station and cleaned up the dead bodies transformed from the original scientific expedition personnel. The whole process was smooth and without any twists and turns or accidents.
This development is actually normal if you think about it carefully.
There is a function called “Group Red Packet” that can send and receive red envelopes in seconds even if you are in different worlds. Materials measured in containers, fuel measured in tons of tens of thousands of tons…all of them can be sent by Mary at the Bed Master Naval Base, and Si Chen can receive them in the open space prepared outside the Amundsen-Scott Station.
All kinds of resources that account for the majority have been secured, so it’s easy to go into battle. Minami Rika, who has already received flight-related training, can fly a military transport plane parked at the base, which happens to be the one she has driven before, to take people to Antarctica. What kind of accidents could possibly go wrong?
Even if there really was an accident, with the world will’s biological daughter and four goddaughters sitting on the plane, it would have to be done in a way that there was no accident!
“Hiss… It’s so cold.”
The second day after arriving at Amundsen-Scott Station.
After a good sleep in the room, I woke up and enjoyed a delicious meal prepared by Busujima Saeko. After eating and drinking my fill, I put on my warm clothes and went outside.
Fujiwara Chika and Selina shuddered at the same time.
“You two are exaggerating.”
Fubuki, who was wearing a dark green dress and a white fluffy coat, was speechless about the two people’s behavior: “Look at Hancock. Her hometown is a tropical area in our eyes, but she came here wearing only a single layer of clothes and I didn’t hear her complain about the cold…”
“You call a place with forty-eight seasons a year the tropics?”
“Also, I’ve already noticed that you definitely used your superpowers to keep out the cold, right? If you have the guts, take away your superpowers before you say that!”
Chika Fujiwara and Selina said one thing after another, which inspired Fubuki to remove her super power shield immediately.
Next second.
“Hiss… It’s so cold!”
She decisively deployed the super power shield again, and also included Fujiwara Chika and Selina in the shield range.
“It feels good.”
The biting cold wind was no longer biting, but a bit like the breeze blowing from the forests and lakes in spring and autumn, brushing across her face. Fujiwara Chika breathed a sigh of relief: “I can’t imagine how hard it would be to live here for a long time.”
“No matter how hard it is, at least we are still alive. As long as we are alive, there is still hope.”
Takagi Yuriko and Miyamoto Kiriko, who were passing by, heard what Fujiwara Chika said, and the former took the initiative to take over the conversation.
“I hope…I hope you can hold on until the day when the dawn comes.”
The relaxation on Fujiwara Chika’s face slowly disappeared, and she gave a sincere blessing.
“Yes.”
Takagi Yuriko was silent for a moment, then nodded solemnly.
Even if group members don’t say some things, they have already guessed them.
For example, even in the Antarctic research station, which was built in an extremely cold area to which the corpses could not adapt, humans and other creatures were completely wiped out.
That is the most logical inference.
If we don’t count these seven mysterious people who seem to be from another world.
Apart from the mastermind behind the corpse crisis, are these nine the last survivors of human civilization on this planet?
Thinking about the question that Saya Takagi asked her during their mother-daughter chat last night, which she had been deliberately avoiding before, Takagi Yuriko felt as if an indescribable huge fear was pressing on her heart.
After getting herself in a good mood and not looking too depressed, Takashiro Yuriko gestured to Chika Fujiwara, who was doing morning exercises with Hancock, and asked quietly, “Can I ask when he’s free today?”
“Well…actually you can just ask him directly.”
Before Fujiwara Chika finished her words, Si Chen had already put away his sword.
“What’s the matter?”
Coming closer, he spoke.
“Well, Kiriko and I just went out to check the status of those things. Most of them are as we expected. They can be perfectly stored in the natural icehouse in Antarctica. But there are also some problems because we didn’t consider them carefully enough when making the plan.”
Takagi Yuriko said: “For example, some equipment that can be used during testing will not be able to operate normally here because the ambient temperature is too low. Long-term freezing may even lead to damage. The space in the scientific research station is limited and cannot accommodate so many things. Even if it can be placed, the energy required to provide them with the appropriate temperature is not a small amount…”
“Just discuss this with them.”
Si Chen pointed at Fujiwara Chika and the others nearby and said, “You have seen how efficient we are in transporting things. If there is anything you need to replenish or replace, please let us know before we leave. We will pick it up from the nearby scientific research station…”
After thinking for a while, he changed his words and said, “Considering that you are unlikely to stay in this icy and snowy place for the rest of your lives after settling down, the resources of the scientific research stations should be kept for your use when you move out. We will try our best to get you equipment and other items that can withstand extreme environments from military bases in various countries.”
“Thank you for your hard work.”
Takagi Yuriko and Miyamoto Kiriko looked at each other and saw relief in each other’s eyes.
“Don’t talk about this right now.”
His Observation Haki had sensed that their next words would be thanks, so Si Chen interrupted their chanting and said to Takashiro Yuriko, “You said before that you had been to the Umbrella Corporation’s secret research base once… Now I’ll give you another chance, can you still find where that base is?”
“I’m sorry, I may not be able to provide much help in this regard. The channels I was able to access at the time only had the legend that ‘Umbrella Corporation’s headquarters is in Area 51’.”
Takashiro Yuriko recalled: “At that time, I was hired by a mysterious rich man named ‘Alicia’ to go to the Umbrella Research Institute in Raccoon City, Colorado, to help her assess whether to increase investment in Umbrella Corporation’s new project.
“After arriving there, I handed over my electronic equipment as required and got on a car with windows covered to block out all light. After about an hour of driving, I was blindfolded and taken into a building that should be the entrance. I then took the subway for more than ten minutes before arriving at the research base built underground…”
“That’s enough information for me.”
A slight smile appeared on Si Chen’s face.
It’s just over an hour’s drive from Raccoon City.
This would not be a difficult range to survey for either his observation Haki or Meli’s clairvoyance.
Not to mention, in addition to opening the observation Haki directly after going there, Raccoon City, Umbrella, underground research base…
In the eyes of someone who knows the Resident Evil series, is there any difference between this and directly playing the open card?
【035】Blood, Moss, and Plants [Edited] (Old Version)
Raccoon City, a mansion on the outskirts of the city, which is also the disguised entrance to the former Umbrella Corporation’s Raccoon City Biochemical Research Institute.
Si Chen stood high in the air with his assistant Meili sitting on his left shoulder.
Just as he thought.
After the coordinates given by Yuriko Takagi have been accurately determined to Raccoon City, no matter whether the worldview of Resident Evil stitched together by this world is more inclined towards movies or games.
Finding a protective umbrella is no longer a problem for him.
It was only after he arrived that he discovered that the situation here was slightly different from what he had expected.
There is a beehive research base under the suburban mansion, which is used as a second camouflage, and there is an even larger hidden base underneath.
From this we can see that the Umbrella Corporation in this world is more inclined to the worldview in which the third movie causes the zombie apocalypse, and the sixth movie shows that the purpose of the destruction is to use the zombie virus to “purify” the entire planet.
But who could tell him that whether it was the Hive Base or the base below it, which was regarded by the top executives of the Umbrella Corporation as the Noah’s Ark Base to carry them to the new world, there were no living people or dead bodies in it, but only dark red flesh and blood occupying more than 90% of the space on two floors of the base, and a flesh and blood plant in the middle protected by these dark red flesh and blood. What the hell was this?
By the way, this dark red flesh and blood does not only exist in the Umbrella base.
After arriving in Raccoon City, Si Chen and Mei Li discovered that the entire city was now covered with such flesh and blood, but the flesh and blood in the city was not as exaggerated as that in the base.
Regardless of whether it is an ordinary corpse, a mutated licker, or a fully armed pursuer.
In the outside world, it was a disaster that led to the near extinction of human civilization, but in this city it became a vassal of those strange flesh and blood.
The difference is that the pursuer’s lower body is melted into the flesh moss, the licker has cocoons of flesh and blood formed on the flesh moss, and an ordinary corpse is just a human-shaped mushroom growing out of the flesh moss.
Turning his head and staring at little Meili on his shoulder, Si Chen took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.
Meili: “?”
“Return the san value…”
Si Chen explained his motive for looking at her twice.
It must be said that the horrible appearance of Raccoon City is quite shocking on the mental level for people who have never seen such a scene before.
Not to mention that he was observing with his Observation Haki all the way.
In other words, we already know that the city has become like this because of the Umbrella Corporation.
Otherwise, it would be hard for him not to wonder if someone had performed some ritual to summon the unspeakable here.
“Sanity?”
Little Meili flew up from Si Chen’s shoulder and turned around in front of him with an umbrella: “Do you want me to change into a nicer outfit?”
“No, no, this is great.”
Si Chen shook his head, indicating that there was no need to go through so much trouble.
However, Mary’s clothes changed to a new style.
The original set was suitable for traveling, but the current set seems to be prepared for attending a banquet.
It would be a shame not to accept the benefit that is right in front of you. After firmly remembering the image of Mary with this skin in his mind, Si Chen talked to her about business.
“Did your clairvoyance find anything like serum down there?”
Pointing to the double base under his feet, Si Chen asked.
Observation Haki is very useful. It can sense attacks, sense the strength of creatures, sense the emotions and thoughts of creatures, and predict the opponent’s next move… It is an all-round assistant for warriors.
But that doesn’t mean it’s perfect.
Although it can also be used to perceive the position and number of objects outside the field of vision, it is obviously not as useful for “inanimate objects” as it is for “living things”.
For example, the current Hive Research Base and Noah’s Ark Base are filled with dark red flesh and blood that not only ignores his listening to the voice of all things, but also interferes with it.
With his current level of vision, it is not easy to find the T virus serum.
Compared with the observation Haki.
Meli’s clairvoyance, which is of the highest level in the Type-Moon world, is much more useful.
“The prerequisite for discovering the serum is that we need to know what the serum looks like in advance…”
Meili spread her hands and said, “But I did find something that I think was retrieved from the outside by the will of the world.”
“Find them back from outside… Are you talking about the twelve spiral glass test tubes in the group system notes?”
Si Chen immediately thought of what Meili was talking about.
But why is it “suspected”?
“The group system notes said that there were twelve spiral test tubes in the box, right?”
Meili raised her staff and displayed the three-dimensional view of the base below as usual, pointing to the center of the Noah’s Ark base, where the flesh and blood plant was located: “I found 2+10 blue ones, and 2+30 green ones.”
The reason why it is 2+10, 2+30 instead of directly 12, 32 is because these things are packed into two boxes.
“So, the two blue and two green ones in the individual packaging are most likely the prototypes from outside the world. As for the other forty… maybe they are replicas made by Umbrella Corporation based on the prototypes?”
Si Chen looked at the two safes on the map that were wrapped in the flesh and blood plant: “If we want to snatch things from this thing, we have to be careful not to damage the things in the box in the process… It’s a bit difficult.”
With his observation skills, he could be sure that the only dead body in the entire Raccoon City was the flesh and blood plant.
The millions of pursuers, lickers, and ordinary corpses that “grew” on the flesh moss throughout the city were all “tentacles” or “mimicry” of the flesh plants extending through the flesh moss.
If this thing could be a little more normal, he wouldn’t have to rely on Meili to keep his eyes open before.
“I can use illusion to ‘trick’ those flesh and blood into thinking that you are also part of them. This will allow you to go deep into the lower base without fighting.”
Meili said, “But once this thing is alerted, for example, if the box it protects in the place it thinks is the safest is taken away, in this world where the overall environment is extremely unfriendly to magicians, given its size, my illusion may not be able to let you leave as smoothly as when you entered. By then, the danger you will face will be far greater than breaking in from the outside. Do you want to try?”
Si Chen hesitated for a moment and nodded slowly.
First of all, the T virus serum is a must.
This relates to the survivors’ “tolerance” after they leave.
Secondly.
It would be fine if this bloody freak in Raccoon City had never been discovered.
Now that it has hit, it has been put on the “kill list”.
It hasn’t even been a month since the corpse crisis broke out, and this thing has already devoured tens of millions of corpses in Raccoon City, covering the entire city with flesh and moss.
If we don’t find a way to solve it now before it becomes completely perverted, do we have to wait ten, fifty, or a hundred years for this thing to corrupt the entire planet into flesh and blood, and then say “We could have done something back then, but it’s too late now”?
【036】Hancock and Sweet Fruit (Old Version)
Chat group: People in Zongman, unlimited entry upgrades: [036] Hancock and Sweet Fruit Picture and Text
The flesh and blood plants that have occupied Raccoon City must be dealt with as soon as possible. This is the prerequisite.
But how to defeat this BOSS specifically is a question that you must think about before you start.
“As I just said, the overall environment of this world is not very friendly to magicians. Using illusion to bring you in and providing you with some assistance after the battle begins is the best I can do.”
Seeing Si Chen’s undisguised gaze on her, Little Meili raised her arms seriously and made a cross in front of her: “Instead of expecting me to help, you might as well let them think of a solution.”
“It doesn’t seem to be any use looking for them. We can’t ask them to go to the US military base and get a nuclear bomb to clear the map, right?”
Si Chen stroked his chin and said, “This thing has enough lethality. If one shot doesn’t work, a few more shots will definitely clear the map, but my small body can’t handle this… Wait.”
Can the Nightmare Edge, the invincible state that Meli sets on people, withstand a nuclear explosion?
“It is not recommended to try.”
Meili shook her head slightly: “In the current situation, my Nightmare’s Edge, to be frank, is just using ‘illusion’ and ‘magic eyes’ to deceive ‘the reality that you will be hurt’. Once it exceeds the tolerance of the magic…”
Your “that’s all” is really just “that’s all”.
Si Chen, who was impressed by the show, complained in his heart and confirmed, “Is it really not possible?”
“No way~”
Meili replied with a smile.
Regardless of whether she, who has the qualifications to be a champion in the Type-Moon world, is capable of dealing with the situation in Raccoon City, now that things have come to this, Si Chen cannot force her to take action.
It would be great to get a crown-level support for free before the battle.
He racked his brain and suddenly remembered someone: “Do you think Hancock’s fruit ability can work on this thing?”
Boa Hancock, the user of the parahuman Sweet-Sweet Fruit.
The same beginning as Si Chen knew.
More than a year ago, in order to prove that she was a qualified warrior, the twelve-year-old Hancock secretly left Nine Snake Island with her two sisters, Boa Sandersonia and Boa Marigold.
Then the plot took a turn here.
At that time, the three sisters were floating out on a raft, and suddenly an invitation from the hyper-dimensional chat group appeared in front of Hancock.
In a panic, she and her two sisters docked on an uninhabited island, intending to research this chat group that she had never heard of before.
Then the three sisters were discovered and caught by the official members of the Nine Snakes Pirates who had secretly left the island.
According to Granny Zha who came with the official crew members at that time, it was fortunate that they temporarily stopped at the island, otherwise if they continued in the original direction, they might have run into a slave-hunting fleet that had been defeated by the Nine Snakes Pirates!
Hancock felt a little scared when she saw the spoils taken from the slave fleet on the Perfume Serpent and the injured and bandaged official members of the Nine Snakes Pirates.
Arrogance aside, she actually admitted in her heart that she and her sisters were not as strong and domineering as the official members of the Nine Snakes Pirates.
Otherwise, you can just participate in the selection according to the rules. There is no need to sneak out to sea to prove yourself.
Even the official members of the Nine Snakes Pirates were injured in the battle with those human traffickers. If the three little kids were to follow their original route and encounter a slave fleet, would they be able to get anything good out of it?
Seeing that Hancock realized her mistake, the mother-in-law did not blame the little girl too much. She patted the head and comforted the three of them, saying that this time the Nine Snakes Pirates were able to seize the goods that were originally going to be sent to the Sabaody Archipelago for auction together with the slaves on the slave ship, and the three sisters also had some “merit”.
Although according to the rules of Amazon Lily, they who had not participated in the battle had no right to share the spoils, her mother-in-law still had the right to decide on snacks, fruits, etc.
Why did the mother-in-law regret it so quickly?
Because the fruits the three sisters randomly picked from the fruit warehouse were the Parahuman-type Sweet-Sweet Fruit, the Animal-type Snake-Snake Fruit·Python Form, and the Animal-type Snake-Snake Fruit·Cobra Form.
What happened next was that Hancock learned from her mistakes and became braver. Soon after returning to her country, she comprehended the Observation Haki and Armament Haki, and also awakened the Conqueror Haki that had not appeared in the Nine Snakes for many years. She went to Ruskaina Island and honed her physical skills, Haki, and fruit abilities with the land beasts on the island until Si Chen joined the group.
To sum up.
Although the process is different, the result is that Hancock in the group is still the world’s most beautiful woman, former one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and the Pirate Empress that Si Chen knows, and is a user of the parahuman Sweet-Sweet Fruit.
And this fruit is amazing.
Anyone who is attracted to her – whether they think she is cute, beautiful, or have other romantic feelings – can be directly petrified by the heart-shaped rays she releases.
There is no real Sigma man/woman who is obsessed with her, or a dead thing with no thoughts or intelligence of its own.
Use the power of the fruit to release peach-colored heart-shaped bullets and arrows, or directly attach the power of the fruit to the hands, feet and other parts that will collide with the enemy. The enemies hit will also be petrified.
This petrification would continue unless she took the initiative to release it.
Even if she dies one day, the reborn Sweet-Sweet Fruit will create a new person with special abilities.
New ability users are also unable to remove the people or objects that have been petrified by her.
『Snake Princess』: Are there any enemies who need to use my fruit ability?
『Snake Princess』: Okay, I’ll be ready to leave right away.
Amazon Lily is a country of girls, but the Nine Snakes who built this country are a fighting nation. All girls on the island are born to be trained as warriors.
In the minds of the Nine Snakes, strength is equivalent to beauty, and fighting with the strong is their opportunity to gain glory.
So, when Hancock heard that Si Chen had encountered an opponent who needed the help of her fruit ability to deal with, she was not afraid but happy. She agreed without even asking who the opponent was.
“Cancer of the Earth”: What kind of enemy? [Curiosity.jpg]『Ordinary People』: Well…just see for yourselves.
『Ordinary People』: [Aerial view of Raccoon City.jpg]『Cancer of the Earth』: Where is it? I can’t find it.
Catwoman: Uh, don’t tell me this is the thing we have to deal with.
“Blizzard of Hell”: No wonder you are looking for Hancock. At present, among us, she is the only one who has the ability to deal with such a guy.
『Ghost Spider』: So it’s really what I thought???
『Ordinary people』: Yes.
『Catwoman』: That’s a bit far-fetched.
『Cancer of the Earth』: Stop playing dumb, tell me what you saw first? !
『Ghost Spider』: That’s all in the photo. Don’t you find the colors and style of this city a bit weird? If you click on the picture to enlarge it, you can see that the whole city is covered with a layer of flesh and blood.
“Ordinary People”: To be precise, these things in the city are just additions. What we really want to deal with is the main body underground.
“Ordinary People”: This thing is probably carrying two boxes of viruses or serum…
【037】I really didn’t expect the title this time (old version)
After recognizing the enemy’s full appearance and feeling greatly shocked, Fujiwara Chika strongly requested Si Chen and others to start a live broadcast when they took action.
You don’t have to worry about issues like camera angles. Just open the live broadcast room and let the view automatically follow.
“Hi, everyone, good afternoon. In response to everyone’s request, Miss Meili’s live broadcast room will be officially open soon~”
In the public activity room of the Amundsen-Scott Station, a curtain of light unfolded in the air.
On the other side of the light screen, little Merry, whose perspective was above Raccoon City, waved to the audience.
After Fujiwara Chika applied to start a live broadcast, several other people expressed similar wishes out of curiosity or other reasons.
So after consulting the two parties involved, Mary took the initiative to take on this task.
As for why we don’t use the live broadcast function in the chat group, but use magic to broadcast live…
This is mainly to give survivors a shot of prevention.
Although the group members had not arrived yet when they were in Bedzhu City, Yuriko Takagi, who had visited the Umbrella Corporation’s research base, had already reminded them that in addition to the ordinary corpses all over the streets, there were also mutated corpses in this world that were a specialty of the Umbrella Corporation.
But during this period of time, all they encountered were ordinary corpses. The only difficulty was that there were so many of them and they were not afraid of individual pain and sacrifice and only wanted to eat.
No one can be sure whether they will subtly develop the sentiment that “dead bodies are nothing” after they have mastered the ability to ignore the threat of the number of corpses to a certain extent.
Therefore, it is necessary to take this opportunity to let them see the upper limit of the corpse.
Looking at the city covered in dark red flesh and blood, Takagi Yuriko took a breath of cold air: “Is this Raccoon City?”
“Yes, this is Raccoon City.”
Through the real body of Merry who stayed here, little Merry in Raccoon City could naturally hear what Takagi Yuriko said and responded directly on the live broadcast screen.
Gao Cheng Yuriko: “…”
The other eight survivors: “…”
“Okay, let’s stop chatting for a while, it’s about to start~”
Si Chen and Hancock on the side already had a plan of action on the way here, so after meeting each other, they just had a simple confirmation and could start working.
After receiving the signal, Little Mary didn’t talk any more with the audience, but waved her staff and released the illusion.
The whole plan is not complicated, there are only three steps in total.
The first step is to enter the depths of the flesh and blood base with the help of Little Meili’s illusion;
The second step is to take out the box containing the spiral glass test tube from the flesh plant, and then directly put it into the group red envelope to relieve the worries;
The third step is to get rid of the flesh and blood plant. If that fails, then stay outside and keep an eye on it to prevent it from escaping, and wait for the subsequent nuclear explosion to wipe out the area.
The first step went very smoothly.
Under the effect of Meli’s illusion, as soon as Si Chen and Hancock approached, the dark red flesh and blood separated into a flesh and blood passage about three meters long and two meters wide, with the inner wall still wriggling, for the two to pass through.
Because this thing was really hard to describe, neither of them really stepped on it. The soles of their feet always maintained a distance of more than ten centimeters from the ground, and they floated in front of the flesh and blood plant.
The first half of the second step is also fine.
After seeing the flesh and blood plant, Si Chen’s observation color was already able to capture where the “foreign object” in the flesh and blood was.
Although the number of boxes didn’t quite match what Meili had said before, he still cut open the plants, took them out, and stuffed them into the designated red envelope for Meili.
Since she is not sure whether the boxes are contaminated or not, she is the only one suitable to do the receiving work.
Then the flesh and blood plant started to go berserk with an unexpected reaction speed.
“Hoo–!” (Give it back to me!)
A roar came from inside the flesh and blood plant, and a human face appeared on the outer wall of flesh and blood of the plant, staring at the two thieves who had come in front of it at some point.
Without waiting for the thief’s response.
From all directions, flesh and blood tentacles were smashing towards Si Chen and Hancock with a whistling sound.
Si Chen swung his knife and cut off the tentacles one by one.
Hancock used the power of her fruit to create a huge pink heart in front of her. As she grabbed one end and pulled back, hundreds of pink arrows shot towards the flesh and blood plants in front.
The arrow of the captive!
The flesh and blood plants covered by the rain of arrows were almost instantly petrified.
“Solved?”
Chika Fujiwara, who was watching the live broadcast in Antarctica, said in surprise.
“Do you think they would still look like this if it was resolved?”
Selina on the side shook her head and pointed at Si Chen and Hancock in the live broadcast and asked.
Before the words were finished, underground in Raccoon City.
The petrified plants have shattered into pieces of stone on the ground.
However, the attacks from the flesh tentacles from all directions did not stop, but became more and more fierce.
Human faces that were identical to the ones that had appeared on the flesh and blood plants before appeared on the walls of flesh and blood in all directions. Chaotic roars echoed in this space enclosed by dark red flesh and blood.
“Roar!!!”×N (Give it back to me, give it back to me, give it back to me…)
Originally, the space was several dozen meters in length, width and height, but as the wall of flesh and blood surged, it began to squeeze and shrink inward.
“Go out first. I suspect that the flesh and blood covering the entire city is a blood bag of it.”
In the interval between swinging the sword, Si Chen, who had already gathered his observation Haki within a hundred meters around him and tried not to miss any details, spoke.
Although it took less than ten seconds for the flesh plant to discover that the box had been stolen, the number of flesh tentacles he cut off definitely exceeded three digits.
However, among these thousands of tentacles, not many were piled up on the ground.
Why?
Because every severed tentacle will merge with the wall of flesh and blood the moment it touches the wall of flesh and blood below.
The only good news was that the pile of stones that were broken from the flesh and blood plant were still scattered on the ground in the same shape as before, which proved that he had made the right choice by finding Hancock. The petrification effect of the sweet fruit could restrain the self-repair of this thing.
Substituting this into the game’s terminology, it is equivalent to reducing the opponent’s health limit.
After quickly cutting off the surrounding flesh and blood tentacles, Si Chen swung Minghong in his hand upwards.
Along with the clear chirping of birds, the scarlet knife light directly tore a crack several dozen meters deep above his head.
The sword light, which is wrapped in spiritual power and domineering, contains Si Chen’s will, and can prevent the flesh and blood from healing themselves to a certain extent.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hancock released the prisoner arrows that she had been holding in her hand. Hundreds of arrows rained down on the ground, petrifying all the flesh and blood on both sides of the rift or the steel that originally belonged to the Umbrella base.
This was the method the two of them had agreed upon on how to quickly escape from the encirclement of flesh and blood.
Before the surrounding flesh and blood completely occupied their current foothold, the two of them dodged and jumped into the petrified crack.
Then, Si Chen swung his sword again, and Hancock released the captive arrow again.
This went on several times, and Si Chen felt something was wrong.
Did they come down so deep?
He glanced out with his restrained observation Haki, and his expression changed slightly.
【038】The Spirituality of Minghong Sword, Second-Level Genetic Lock (Old Version)
Compared to Si Chen and Hancock who are in the game.
In the live broadcast room, after Meili raised the viewing angle, the audience could see the situation more clearly.
The dark red flesh that originally covered the entire city has now been mobilized, forming a huge, constantly surging flesh ball at the location of the original mansion.
From time to time, pieces of gravel will be excreted from the body by the meat ball.
That was the flesh and blood that was petrified by Hancock’s fruit ability and could no longer be absorbed.
The reason why Si Chen and Hancock jumped up hundreds of meters but were still unable to escape from the encirclement of flesh and blood was because the surging of flesh and blood, while expelling the useless stones from the body, also flowed like liquid, keeping the two of them in the center of the flesh ball.
“So if you want to get out now, you have to be able to cut through hundreds of meters of flesh in one breath?”
Si Chen, who was aware of this situation through his perception of Observation Haki, frowned.
After obtaining the entry [Swordsman (Blue)], he could easily swing a sword that spanned hundreds of meters.
But cutting through hundreds of meters of air, cutting through hundreds of meters of flowing water, and cutting through hundreds of meters of flesh and blood that is as strong and tough as steel, these three “hundreds of meters” are not things that can be generalized.
“Hancock, how long can you hold on?”
He asked his companion beside him.
“If it’s only this intensity now…”
With a fragrant kick, a flesh tentacle that attacked from a tricky angle and was probably trying to launch a sneak attack was petrified and shattered. Hancock felt the consumption of his own physical energy: “With the recovery effect provided by Miss Meili, a few days and nights should not be a problem.”
Si Chen nodded: “Next, we should focus on defense and don’t let these flesh and blood drown us. I’ll see if I can give these things a big stun.”
“good.”
Hancock responded, and her petite body flashed around Si Chen repeatedly, petrifying all the flesh and blood nearby.
Si Chen, on his side, while swinging his sword as usual, injected part of his mind and spiritual power into the Minghong Sword.
After raising it for so long, it should be able to improve its compatibility a little, right?
The Minghong Sword is spiritual.
This was already mentioned by Kaguya, who gave the sword to Si Chen when he first saw it. She said that no matter whether the sword was in the hands of Bayi Eirin or in the hands of her own Kaguya in Houraisan, neither of them had ever acknowledged that they were the masters of the sword.
Si Chen himself also had a deep understanding of this in the following time.
Perhaps it was the moment he swung the knife with all his energy that satisfied the spirituality in the knife. In his hands, the knife could be made as light or heavy as he wished, as hard or soft as he wished.
But he could also feel that the power of the Minghong Sword had not been fully explored by him.
So after mastering the domineering power, he began to “nurture” the sword.
The quality of swords in the world of One Piece can be subdivided into two systems. One is the quality determined by the grade of raw materials and forging technology. Above ordinary swords, there are four levels: quick sword, good quick sword, great quick sword and supreme great quick sword.
The second is that there are only two black swords known to exist in the world, namely “Autumn Water” and “Night”.
The method of forging a black sword is for the swordsman to use his own domineering energy to nourish the blade.
When a swordsman is able to completely immerse his sword in the domineering aura that contains the power of his own will, belief, etc., it can be considered a black sword.
As a person who thinks he has some self-awareness, Si Chen certainly would not think that he would be able to forge a black knife in just a few dozen days after he comprehended the domineering power.
But after so many days of blending our wills, expecting the Minghong Sword to give some feedback… shouldn’t be too much to ask, right?
With the infusion of spiritual power, as if sensing his mental demands, the red cloud and bird pattern on the Minghong Sword changed from static to dynamic and began to flow slowly.
Until some invisible critical point is broken.
“Chirp…”
A bird’s chirping sound that only Si Chen could hear rang in his mind.
“Now!”
Si Chen let out a low shout and swung his knife forward.
At that moment, the muscles in his arm holding the knife swelled, making the entire arm several times thicker. The red light of the knife directly cut through the layer of flesh and blood more than a hundred meters ahead.
The wound will be repaired by the flowing blood and flesh.
The second, third, fourth and fifth knife lights followed one after another, allowing the bright light from the outside to shine in through the gap.
Then, he reached out and held Hancock’s slender waist, who was a little dazed, and Si Chen took her and jumped out of the gap.
“It seems that my evaluation of Brother Si Chen a few days ago was still a bit conservative.”
In the Antarctic base, Mary said happily.
No one answered.
Even if one did not know that the strength of that flesh and blood was comparable to that of steel, just looking at it as ordinary flesh and blood, the scene of a giant as big as a hundred-story skyscraper being cut in half from the inside out in the blink of an eye was enough to leave most of the audience stunned.
Even Fubuki, who had seen some big scenes in her own world, felt a little frightened when she saw Si Chen’s sword strikes.
“Brother, is your hand okay?”
Above Raccoon City, Little Mary hovered beside Si Chen, using her staff to lift up the sleeve that had just been torn apart by his swollen arm and had turned into rags, and looked at his arm whose muscles and blood vessels were obviously swollen.
“It’s okay, it’s not a big problem.”
Si Chen swung his sword and cut off the strange ball of flesh and blood with a flying strike that was much more agile than before. He then angrily chased after the thief after discovering that the thief had already escaped.
The second stage of the gene lock has the effect of comprehensively strengthening the first stage.
If the focus of the first-level gene lock is to liberate the body’s fighting instincts and precisely control the existing strength, the improvement of physical fitness is just to gather and control some strength that was originally out of control.
The second stage of gene lock is complete control over the body and 100% utilization of potential power.
The “explosion beyond the physical endurance limit” that was considered a “big move” in the first-level gene lock stage became the norm after the second-level gene lock was unlocked.
The release of the second-level gene lock can greatly strengthen the human body’s muscles, blood, nerves, and five senses, which represents super recovery ability, super reaction ability, super physical toughness and strength.
As for the side effects, like what he is doing now, his muscles and blood vessels will become swollen and blocked due to the outbreak of the liberation state.
However, this is no longer a big problem even for normal lock pickers. The control over the body allows them to easily solve these adverse symptoms, not to mention Si Chen who possesses the [Photosynthesis (Purple)] entry and can enjoy all-round recovery under the sun.
“continue?”
He looked at Hancock.
“continue!”
The little girl nodded vigorously, and a pink heart that was ten times larger than before took shape in front of her as she kissed her fingertips.
Thousands and thousands of pink arrows splashed onto the hundreds-meter-long strange ball of flesh and blood, petrifying the dark red flesh and blood in large pieces.
【039】The root of all evil, the unlucky Komuro Takashi (old version)
For dozens of minutes, a rain of arrows swept the ground.
The last part of the dark red flesh and blood was finally petrified and shattered by Hancock.
“No more.” / “No more.”
Si Chen, who was using his Observation Haki, and Mei Li, who was using her Clairvoyance, both spoke up and confirmed that the operation was successfully completed.
The whole operation was able to proceed so smoothly, of course, because they had the advantage of being in a dominant position and could fight however they wanted.
On the other hand, it was because of the manic will of their opponents in the dark red flesh and blood. During this period, they tried to cast a flesh and blood net to capture them, tried to separate the lickers with flesh and blood wings and engage in air combat with them, and tried to directly pile up flesh and blood pillars to eliminate their air advantage… but they never thought of evacuating.
Even though it really wanted to run away, Si Chen would not let it go.
“How’s the situation over there? Is the box opened?”
On the way back to the Amundsen-Scott Station, Si Chen asked Meili.
“It’s open.”
Meili nodded: “Three boxes, two of which contain the forty-four spiral glass test tubes I told you about.
“The third box contains some information related to the dead body virus, as well as a self-narration by an Umbrella Company employee. It tells us the purpose of the things in the other two boxes, as well as the causes and consequences of all this.”
First up is the root of all evil, the Umbrella Corporation.
The predecessor of Umbrella Corporation was a research institute invested by America, which was mainly responsible for researching biotechnology for the military.
To be more specific, it is to achieve controllable and militarily applicable human enhancement through genetic programming.
Even in the 21st century, this is still a science fiction topic, not to mention that the double helix structure of DNA was discovered only a few decades ago?
So unsurprisingly, the institute did not achieve anything that could be called a result.
So, a few years later, the military withdrew its funding, and the director of the institute had to find himself a new boss through his connections.
He was an old European nobleman with a Union Jack.
In addition to the funds, the new boss also brought a gift to the institute – six blue viruses in spiral glass test tubes and six corresponding antisera.
This thing, named T virus by the new boss, is a perfect match for the research institute’s original research topic.
Due to the chain reaction brought about by this wonderful fit, it took Umbrella less than thirty years to transform from an unpopular fringe research institute into a monopoly giant that was semi-banned by countries around the world.
The reason why it was only half-banned and not directly dismembered was because other countries discovered that with the technical capabilities of the Umbrella Group, they could really achieve the eternal pursuit in human history – immortality. In addition, the strength of the Umbrella Group at that time could not be underestimated, so they simply chose to continue to wait and see tacitly.
The new boss is certainly no pushover, as he has been able to grow Umbrella to such a large scale in just over 20 years.
He directly chose the most radical way to fight back——
Anyway, Umbrella has already mastered the mature technology of artificial humans. No matter what type of tool human you want, you can get it by just inputting a few simple indicators. So what is there to worry about?
Wouldn’t it be wonderful to spread dead bodies all over the world, then sleep with your family and confidants for a while, and when you wake up you will have a clean planet that completely belongs to you?
As for how to clean up the dead bodies all over the world after waking up… the answer to this question is no need to clean up.
According to the research results of the Umbrella Corporation, the corpses will crave fresh flesh and blood in the early stages of mutation because they can still find fresh flesh and blood.
Once there is no food to chase, the corpses will attach themselves to the ground or walls in a dark place, and will die within a few years to decades due to the lack of energy.
This is because when Umbrella was still a research institute affiliated with the military, its initial research data was taken from a Cordyceps fungus.
Even though the T virus was later melted, some of the characteristics of the prototype were retained.
If everything goes according to the Umbrella Corporation’s plan, the hidden base underneath the Hive Base will be the Noah’s Ark for people of the old era to take to the new era to become gods.
However, just as countries did not expect Umbrella to be so crazy as to send away billions of people in one go, Umbrella did not expect that among the senior employees who had undergone rigorous review and screening within the company and were considered eligible for a ticket to the New World, there was still one who retained a trace of humanity.
After the entire plan was carried out as the company expected, through a pre-arranged backup plan, the employee ended his hibernation early and released an experimental subject that the company had discovered more than ten years ago that could adapt to the dead body virus to a certain extent. The company’s plan and the two boxes of viruses and serum were handed over to him, hoping that he could bring the fire out before the humans outside were completely exterminated by the dead body virus.
“Hiss… I suddenly feel like we’re the bad guys. What’s going on?”
Si Chen, who had already guessed what happened after that and why the flesh-and-blood creature in Raccoon City went so crazy after losing the box, clicked his tongue.
“It can’t be calculated like this, right?”
Hancock on the side denied it, “Judging from the state of Raccoon City and the way that guy behaved when facing us, even if we didn’t show up, it would be impossible to expect him to bring hope to human civilization as that Umbrella employee expected. If he continues to grow, human civilization might even be destroyed by him.”
“I know that too. Otherwise, why would the World Will bring us here? Wouldn’t it be better for us to just wait for Him to save the world?”
Si Chen smiled, and suddenly thought of something, and asked Mei Li: “Does the third box say what the experiment is called?”
“Yes, he seems to be a Japanese like those survivors, his name is Komuro Takashi.”
It’s really you.
Now I understand why the original protagonist is not on the list of survivors in Bed Master City.
If the learning group system personified the world’s will, Si Chen estimated that the situation at that time might be like this –
World Will: The technology of the Umbrella Corporation has become quite mature. Son of destiny, join the glorious evolution and open a new chapter in human history!
Komuro Takashi: Dead.
【040】Thousands of tons of gold, click and you’ll get it (old version)
The blue one is the virus and the green one is the serum.
This was clearly mentioned by the Umbrella Corporation employee in the third box.
But even Si Chen, who was familiar with some of the settings in the worldview of the Resident Evil series, was not sure whether the information he knew would still be applicable after enough variables were introduced.
Therefore, regarding the forty-four spiral glass test tubes in the first two boxes, his suggestion was consistent with that of the other group members.
If someone is unfortunate enough to be bitten by a corpse in the future, they must be injected with serum.
But don’t push yourself too hard when you have nothing to do.
“…Unless it’s absolutely necessary, after what they’ve been through, who would want to joke about their own life?”
In response to the reminders from the group members, Takagi Yuriko gave a bitter smile.
“One more thing.”
Si Chen pointed at the three boxes and said, “Can you let me take a virus and serum from each of the two boxes, and make a copy of the virus-related information in the third box?
“I have a friend who is good at researching various drugs… Although we don’t know if we can come back after we leave this time, what if?”
“You can take it yourself.”
Yuriko Takagi nodded in agreement.
Si Chen then took out a T virus and a T virus serum from the first box, a dead body virus and a dead body virus serum from the second box, and from the third box… um…
“Miss Meili, can you help me?”
He looked at Mellie.
“no problem.”
Mary snapped her fingers and used magic to copy the information in the third box.
“Sister Qianhua, are you guys leaving?”
Ciri Alice, who had been getting along well with Fujiwara Chika in the past few days, looked at the pink-haired older sister.
“Should we stay here for a few more days?”
Fujiwara Chika called up the group chat interface, had a brief discussion with the group members, and replied: “Although we have provided you with a lot of supplies during this period, as Mr. Si Chen just said, we cannot guarantee that we will have the opportunity to come back after we leave this time, so we should try to prepare as much as possible for you before we leave.”
So in the next ten days or so, Europe and North America welcomed a group of visitors who made the sky high.
Those that can adapt to the extremely cold environment will be directly stuffed in red envelopes and sent back to Antarctica. Those that may be destroyed in the extremely cold environment will be sealed on the spot to try to slow down the rate of erosion by time and the environment.
By the time the group members were really ready to leave, the resources accumulated on the Antarctic continent, with the Amundsen-Scott Station at the South Pole as its center, were enough to last the nine survivors until the end of time.
『Ordinary People』: Is everything okay?
『Cancer of the Earth』: Okay~
『Lady of Avalon』: +1
『Ghost Spider』: Okay, okay, I miss my music, my games, and my warm bed so much…
『Catwoman』: And my designer bags and jewelry~
Snake Princess: Um… let me ask you, can I bring something back from this world?
『Ghost Spider』: Why not? Just bring it if you want. Anyway, viruses and the like will be disinfected by the group system during transmission, so there is no need to worry about bringing the infection back to our world.
『Ghost Spider』: Also, why do you think we had to act separately during this last period of time when we were collecting supplies? It was just to make it easier for everyone to do some “little tricks”. The survivors also have a “tacit understanding” with us on this point.
Snake Princess: Mainly because the things I want to bring might be a bit big…
Catwoman: How old? Tell me.
『Snake Princess』: I want to bring a ship… a warship to be exact.
『Catwoman』: Uh… I’m not trying to hit you.
“Catwoman”: I remember you said yourself that the technology in your world and the technology here are not actually following the same path, right?
“Catwoman”: As far as I know, even if you have mastered some relevant basics, it is still difficult to control modern ships, not to mention that you have to start from the most basic language and characters.
“Catwoman”: Then, the maintenance of the ship, the refueling… Even if you can handle all of these, the warships of this world, unless they are equipped with nuclear warheads, do not seem to have an absolute advantage in front of the strong people in your world?
“Snake Princess”: I have already considered all the issues you mentioned.
『Snake Princess』: Facing the top-level sea warriors that my grandmother introduced to me, who can destroy an island with one strike, the warships of this world really don’t stand much chance of winning.
『Snake Princess』: But other than that, the steel ships here have almost absolute advantages in all aspects of performance compared to the wooden sailboats over there. Only the ships built by Baoshu Adam can perhaps compete with the steel ships in some aspects.
Snake Princess: As for the operation, care and maintenance of the ship… I once read a devil fruit manual collected by my grandmother, and some of the devil fruits written in it can do it.
『Catwoman』: Since you have made up your mind, just pretend I didn’t say anything.
“Catwoman”: Have you decided what kind of boat to bring? Do you want us to give you some reference suggestions?
Snake Princess: Right now, I want an armored battleship.
Snake Princess: Although in this world’s naval battles, aircraft carriers and ballistic missile nuclear submarines dominate in terms of strategy and tactics, as you said, each world has its own circumstances.
[Group reminder: Group member ‘Ordinary People’ sent a designated red envelope to ‘Snake Princess’]Before she finished typing the words explaining why she chose the ironclad battleship, she saw a red envelope sent to her in the group. Hancock sent a question mark in confusion.
『Ordinary Man』: I just happened to have gathered three aircraft carrier battle groups in America during this period. I had intended to keep them as a souvenir. Since you need one, I’ll give you one. I’ve already prepared all the weapons, ammunition, fuel and everything else.
『Ghost Spider』: Aircraft carrier…battle group???
Ordinary People: Well, a single fleet includes an aircraft carrier, two cruisers, six destroyers, a frigate, two attack nuclear submarines, and three supply ships…
It’s a pity that the timeline of this world is a bit early. The Ford-class aircraft carrier has not even been installed, let alone launched into the water. Therefore, the aircraft carriers in the three formations are only Nimitz-class nuclear-powered aircraft carriers.
After glancing regretfully at the things that had been posted on the group mall and set to be visible only to himself, Si Chen continued to ask –
『Ordinary People』: Do you want anything else besides Hancock? I can spare one.
『Cancer of the Earth』: Forget it, forget it, I can’t afford it…
『Ghost Spider』: Cannot afford to support +1
“Ordinary Man”: Okay, let’s do something normal, just to celebrate the successful completion of our first mission.
[Group reminder: Group member “Ordinary People” sent a lucky red envelope][Group member ‘Ordinary People’s’ lucky red envelopes were all claimed within 1 second, ‘Ms. Avalon’ was the lucky one]“Cancer of the Earth”: You call more than 210 tons of gold “normal”???
『Cancer of the Earth』: What’s outrageous is that I’m not even the lucky one!
『Ordinary People』: Compared to the aircraft carrier fleet, isn’t this quite normal?
『Ms. Avalon』: Actually, there is not much difference. I only have two tons more than you, Qianhua-chan. If you round it up, I estimate that Brother Sichen has sent out about one thousand tons?
『Ordinary person』: Well, that’s exactly the number.
『Cancer of the Earth』: So Mr. Si Chen, what have you been doing these days… [Covering face.jpg]“Ordinary People”: Nothing much, just visited the Federal Reserve Bank and the underground vault at Knoxville. How about you?
『Catwoman』: Don’t ask, don’t ask [covering face.jpg]Compared with the more than one hundred tons of gold she had just received from Si Chen’s red envelope, she felt that she had been wasting her life in the past few days.
【041】Abnormally good relationship with women (old version)
Chat group: People in Zongman, unlimited entry upgrades: [041] Abnormally good female popularity pictures and texts
[Based on your performance during this mission, you have earned 10,800 points]Wow~!
One thousand and eight hundred!
Seeing this number, even though he had guessed before the settlement that he would gain a lot from this mission, the fact that the points directly exceeded one-third of the total still made Si Chen feel a little surprised.
I returned to the group chat interface and reported safety to others.
Seeing that everyone had returned to their own world safely, he did not stay in the group for long. He stood up and opened the door.
A figure was already standing outside the door.
“I’m back.”
“Then given your understanding of me, father, you should know why I am waiting here, right?”
“Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.”
Si Chen nodded and said, “Everything really went smoothly this time. Even if it wasn’t for the physical examination, I still had something else to do and needed to go to Yonglin… Of course, before that, I won’t delay telling you what I saw and heard during this trip.”
“Okay, I’ll go change my clothes first.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Si Chen saw that the style of clothes worn by Kaguya Houraisan had changed.
Hmm…it seems that in the brief moment when she activated her ability and entered the time gap, she not only changed her clothes, but also took the time to take a shower.
“Come in.”
Si Chen turned sideways to allow Kaguya to enter the house.
After arriving at the target world, it didn’t take much effort to find the target with the help of Meili’s clairvoyance. Then, he successfully lit up the map of the Antarctic continent, successfully completed the cleanup of Antarctica, successfully found the T virus, the corpse virus and the serum of these two viruses in Raccoon City, and learned the causes and consequences of the corpse crisis. Then he successfully completed the collection of later resources and returned to this world…
“Father, have you noticed a problem?”
After listening to Si Chen’s experience of this trip, Kaguya, who was originally curled up in the lazy sofa, sat up with a serious face.
“……What?”
It was rare to see such a serious look on her face. Si Chen frowned and began to wonder if he had really overlooked some details.
“Haven’t you noticed that your popularity with women has been a little abnormal recently?”
Kaguya Houraisan looked at him seriously.
“Is there?”
Si Chen tilted his head.
“Look, that chat group that allows you to communicate with other worlds, according to what you said, except for you, the other six group members are all women, right?”
“Then, the last incident has already made us enemies with the Monster Sage, and if the Monster Sage’s plan had not gone wrong, the Lord of the Four Seasons Flowers would have also made us enemies. Even the miko you met on the way back and the dog demon you adopted are all women, right?”
Kaguya Houraisan continued to ask.
Si Chen continued to nod.
“Look again, this trip to another world… As you said, there are billions of people in the entire world. After the corpse crisis broke out, there were only nine survivors left who needed your cross-world assistance. And these nine survivors are all women, right?”
Kaguya Houraisan asked three times.
Si Chen nodded for the third time.
“In summary, you should not be able to deny what I said, right?”
Kaguya Houraisan made a final conclusion: “Your popularity with women has become abnormal recently.”
Si Chen cleared his throat and began to pick out words seriously: “Some of them can’t be considered human, such as monsters, dream demons, etc….”
“Heh~”
Her Royal Highness the Princess stood up and looked down at Si Chen slightly.
“Okay, okay. I admit that all this does seem a little unusual.”
Under the pressure of the little girl’s eyes, Si Chen cooperated and acknowledged the fact: “So what do you want to say?”
“I’m just a little curious. Six group members, three monsters, a witch, and nine survivors…”
Kaguya Houraisan listed them one by one: “Are there any women among these women who made you feel something different, father?”
“What’s the different feeling?”
“…” (playing dumb)
Kaguya Houraisan conveyed what she wanted to say with just a glance.
“Eirin is not on the list. I can understand that she has a special place in your heart, but why are you not on the list either?”
Coming to his senses, he realized that the girl had been talking so much nonsense just for this last moment. Si Chen put away his pretentious expression and looked at her seriously: “After all, you are the one who has been with me the longest, right?”
“What if I am included in the calculation?”
Understanding his hint, Her Royal Highness the Princess asked with a smile.
“That’s easy. I’ll exclude you and tick all the remaining ones.”
Si Chen stroked his chin: “I really don’t know how to make such a choice…”
Kaguya Houraisan suddenly widened her eyes, stared at Si Chen for three seconds, then kicked her little feet into Si Chen’s hands.
“What do you mean, anyone except me?”
Her Royal Highness the Princess gritted her teeth.
“It’s mainly because I’m too familiar with you. I’ve watched you grow up little by little.”
Si Chen blinked his eyes: “Do you understand what I mean?”
“That gap monster once wanted to kill you!”
“So once you catch her, you have to strike her harder, lash her out harshly, and teach her a lesson she’ll never forget.”
“Fairy Lingyue has always been in the form of a demon dog!”
“She can transform… Looking at her youkai form, I know she won’t be any worse when she turns into a human.”
“Ciri Alice is still a child!”
“You will grow up. A few years won’t be a big problem for you or for me now.”
“Is it fun to bully me?!”
“You were the first to joke about this kind of thing…”
Si Chen pinched the small and delicate jade feet in his hands.
“…You better be joking!”
She pulled her foot back angrily, her pretty face slightly blushing, and left Si Chen’s room in a huff, her bare feet stomping on the plush carpeted floor, each step making a dull thumping sound.
“This girl.”
In the room, Si Chen chuckled and raised his hand to touch his nose… Well, although the other person had taken a shower before coming in, he should not touch his nose right after touching the feet, so as to avoid people suspecting that he had some unusual habits.
Wait, there doesn’t seem to be anyone else here?
Raising his eyebrows, Si Chen stood up from the lazy sofa where he had just sat opposite Kaguya, stretched, and walked towards the door.
It’s time to go look for Yonglin.
【042】Experience the lucky draw again, ten consecutive double yellows (old version)
Chat group: People in Zongman, unlimited entry upgrades: [042] Lucky draw experience again, ten consecutive double yellow pictures and texts
“Why did you start a quarrel with Her Royal Highness the Princess right after you came back?”
Enter Yagi Eirin’s room and enter the world in the pot through the pre-connected ritual.
Before he had the chance to say hello to her, Si Chen heard Yonglin, who was busy at the experimental table, ask without even raising her head.
“…Don’t blame me this time. She started it herself.”
Si Chen looked around curiously: “Can we observe the situation outside from here?”
“You can’t just become blind once you enter the world in the pot, and not know anything even if the enemy sets traps outside, right?”
Pour the unknown liquids in the two test tubes into the same large test tube. The two liquids, originally red and purple, will become colorless and transparent after mixing.
After putting the prepared medicine in the cabinet, Bayi Yonglin turned around and looked at Si Chen: “Old rules?”
“It’s the same as before. Please check my body first.”
Si Chen nodded and took off his shirt: “It’s almost the same as we expected. After my basic qualities are improved, I just need to wait for an opportunity that allows me to concentrate my mind, and the release of the second-level gene lock will be a natural thing.”
“Not bad, even better than what I found when I first examined you. It should be the photosynthesis and awakening of spiritual power that have eased the pressure on your body from opening the gene lock at the genetic level.”
After a moment, Bayi Yonglin withdrew his hand from his back and said.
“Same feeling as I do.”
After putting on his clothes, Si Chen took out the four spiral glass test tubes, two blue and two green, and introduced their origins and the world-destroying events they had caused in another world. He also explained his purpose of bringing these things back.
The purpose of bringing back the corpse virus and its serum is to see if Bayi Eirin can create an ultimate serum similar to the one in the sixth Resident Evil movie, which can spread through the air and purify the entire world of viruses with just one dose.
The purpose of bringing back the T virus and its serum was, on the one hand, of course, to serve as a reference for the research on dead body virus serum, and on the other hand, Si Chen was curious whether the T virus still had the effect of strengthening the human body.
“strengthen?”
“Well, as far as I know, individuals who can perfectly adapt to the T-virus will not be infected even if they are directly injected with the virus. Instead, they can obtain physical fitness several times that of ordinary people and moderate telekinesis. Ordinary people can also enjoy some of the enhanced effects by injecting the virus and then injecting the serum before they completely mutate.”
Si Chen introduced his understanding that this was more likely the T virus from the movie version of Resident Evil.
The basis of the former is of course Alice, the original heroine of the movie series, and the basis of the latter is the novel called Infinite Horror.
In fact, in the latter sentence, he originally wanted to say that this thing can help people unlock the first-level gene lock, but if you think about it carefully, not to mention that the T virus has the effect of unlocking the gene lock only after being improved by Chu Xuan.
Let’s just talk about gene lock.
This thing itself is a unique rule under the infinite series worldview. It is the product of “Gu” paying a price to modify the rules of that world.
Unless someone has obtained the potential of the gene lock through other channels like him, even if someone has already unlocked the gene lock, they will lose the ability to unlock it once they leave that world, not to mention outsiders who do not belong to that world.
“I see. I’ll look into it.”
Taking the four spiral glass test tubes from Si Chen’s hands, Bayi Yonglin stared at the azure or emerald green viruses and serums from another world inside, and a hint of interest flashed in his eyes, which had always been calm.
After the morning exercise, Si Chen glanced at the chat group as usual and found that the chat group seemed a bit lively at this time.
『Ordinary People』: What are we talking about?
『Cancer of the Earth』: Talking about the lottery.
『Ordinary People』: Lottery? May I ask which warrior is it this time?
『Ordinary People』: Wow, there’s more than one person… Single draw or ten consecutive draws?
『Ghost Spider』: Do we look like we are about to sink a ship?
『Ghost Spider』: [Selfie with a gloomy face.jpg]“Ordinary People”: Qianhua has already used bloody reality to prove how unreliable a lottery without a guarantee is. How dare you still be so reckless.
『Catwoman』: That’s the problem!
『Catwoman』:[screenshot.jpg][screenshot.jpg][screenshot.jpg]
Si Chen clicked on the picture sent by Selina and took a look.
There are six screenshots, each of which is a message box of the group lottery function interface, with eleven prompts, which just cover the ten-consecutive shipments.
The people involved in the last three screenshots are Gwen, Selina and Blizzard respectively. The results of the lottery cannot even be considered blue sky, white clouds and green grass. If there is any quality, it is probably just ordinary white and shabby gray.
The first three screenshots are quite interesting.
Fujiwara Chika, Hancock, and Merry also had a ten-shot combo. Ten of the shots were similar to the other three, ranging from gray to ordinary white. But in the remaining shot, Fujiwara Chika got a pair of white eyes, Hancock got a gravity room, and Merry got a holy sword of physics…
Holy Sword of Physics?
『Ordinary People』: @Ms. Avalon, what you drew is the Holy Sword of Physics. Is it a real Holy Sword?
“Ms. Avalon”: The premise for discussing whether it is a legitimate holy sword…it must first be a sword.
『Ms. Avalon』: [crowbar.jpg]『Lady of Avalon』: It should be just an ordinary crowbar, but it seems to have been blessed by a higher-level being. According to my actual measurement, it has now become a very pure physical strike weapon.
『Ms. Avalon』: By the way, Brother Si Chen should have gained a lot in this mission, right? Do you want to try a ten-pull draw? Judging from the previous small guarantee, your luck should be the best among us~
『Ordinary People』: Who can tell for sure about luck…
『Ordinary People』: I’ll go and take a look.
[Lottery interface prompt: Group member “Ordinary People” participated in 1 lottery and won “SCP-500-Panacea” x 1]【……】×7
[Prompt on the lucky draw interface: Group member “Ordinary Person” participated in 1 lucky draw and won “Destined Death” x 1]【……】×2
Ten consecutive draws, as one thousand points were deducted, the results of the eleven draws popped up on the panel.
Si Chen’s eyes fell on the first and ninth lottery draws.
Is this… double yellow?
【043】Panacea and Destiny of Death (Old Version)
Chat group: People in Zongman, unlimited entry upgrades: [043] Panacea and destined death, pictures and texts
SCP-500 – Panacea.
As the name suggests, this is a product of the SCP Foundation’s worldview.
The SCP Foundation, whose full name is the Special Containment Procedures Foundation, is an organization dedicated to containing anomalous phenomena, worlds, individuals, etc. in the world, in order to prevent these anomalies from posing physical dangers to people, or from having psychological effects on people around the world, shaking their personal beliefs, and interfering with people’s daily lives.
SCP-500-Panacea is the Foundation’s internal safe-class containment object numbered 500.
SCP-500 is a red pill contained in a small plastic can. One pill can effectively cure all diseases within two hours after oral administration. The specific time depends on the type and severity of the subject’s illness.
Then comes the inevitable death.
This is the embodiment of the concept of death in Elden Ring.
[You have obtained a new entry——[Destined Death (Gold)]]【Destined Death (Gold)】
[Enables you to master the power of your destined death]A golden talent entry?
Si Chen raised one hand, and pure spiritual power condensed at his fingertips.
As his mind moved, black and white flames instantly ignited.
This flame was his newly acquired destined death.
In the game, the special effect of Fated Death is black and red flames with holy attributes. In addition to basic damage, it also has the special effects of reducing the target’s upper limit of health and burning blood by percentage.
But in reality, the destined death that he won in the lottery was more like the black flame of the Divine Skin Apostles and Divine Skin Nobles, with the attribute of fire… Wait, the original owner of the destined death seemed to be the Queen of Night Eyes served by the Divine Skins?
As for the Black Flame’s inherent effect of burning blood by a percentage, and the inherent effect of Fate of Death that can reduce the upper limit of blood, what they will look like in reality requires further testing.
But anyway.
If he were to clear the Raccoon City dungeon again, facing the dark red flesh and blood covering the entire city, he would not need to ask for help.
“Ms. Avalon”: What did I say? I recognize Brother Si Chen’s luck.
While Si Chen was sorting out his haul, Meili had already moved the results of his ten-consecutive draws back to the group chat interface.
In fact, she didn’t have to carry it.
When Si Chen expressed his intention to check out the lottery interface, everyone in the group except him was already waiting there.
‘Cancer of the Earth’: Panacea? Death by destiny?
『Ghost Spider』: Okay, okay, you all draw the lottery this way, right?
『Catwoman』: I thought that Chikako, Hancock and Miss Merry were lucky enough to have the same guaranteed shipment as before, but I didn’t expect that there would be another cheat among them!
“Blizzard of Hell”: Uh… there must be someone stronger among the strong, right?
『Catwoman』: That’s fine as long as it’s similar. Anyway, the lottery is opened with one thousand points. Others at best just roll their eyes, but when it’s our turn, we just throw a bunch of things in the warehouse and complain that they take up space. In my opinion, every one of these guys seems to have opened a lottery.
『Cancer of the Earth』: Wait, what do you mean by “at worst a pair of white eyes”? My white eyes are not bad, okay?
Mr. Si Chen’s panacea and destined death, just by hearing the names you can imagine that they are definitely not ordinary things.
Miss Mary’s physics holy sword has been blessed by a higher-status being. According to her, although it is not as fancy as a normal holy sword, it is definitely worthy of the title of a divine weapon just based on its basic strength and physical attack effects.
Fujiwara Chika admits that she cannot compare with these three things.
But she felt that her eyes could be compared to Hancock’s gravity room, which could be adjusted between 1 and 100 times the standard gravity of the earth, and whose specific use was unknown except that it was very high in technology.
After all, these eyes gave her three special abilities: long-range vision, perspective, and insight.
Farsightedness, allowing her to see things within a kilometer radius even before she has begun to develop the potential of her eyes;
Perspective allows her to see through objects and see the muscles, bones, blood flow, etc. of the human body;
Her insight gave her a 360-degree view, allowing her to see everything around her clearly.
『Catwoman』: It’s too late [Catwoman smiles with sidelong eyes.jpg]“Blizzard of Hell”: Although I don’t really want to attack you, if your eyes can’t evolve to a higher level like Hancock’s “Sharingan”…
“Blizzard of Hell”: It’s hard to say which one has better overall cost-effectiveness, your Byakugan or Hancock’s Gravity Chamber.
“Blizzard of Hell”: Especially since Hancock has set the goal of becoming the emperor of Amazon Lily and the captain of the Nine Snakes Pirates, the value of the gravity room to the Nine Snakes Island must also be taken into account when considering these.
『Cancer of the Earth』: Why don’t you put your words more clearly…?
Ms. Avalon: To put it simply, we found that in a multiple gravity environment, although organs such as internal organs have to bear a greater burden, as long as they can hold on, exercising in that environment will be more efficient than exercising in a normal environment.
“Ms. Avalon”: This gravity room can accommodate up to one hundred people at the same time, and each person can set the gravity multiplier individually… Do you understand what I mean?
『Cancer of the Earth』: …I lost. [Raise the white flag.jpg]『Snake Princess』: So, Sister Qianhua, do you want to experience the effect of the gravity room?
『Cancer of the Earth』: Oh, let’s wait a few more days.
『Cancer of the Earth』: After returning home yesterday, I found that my sister and Mengye seemed to have noticed that something was wrong, so I had to let them get familiar with and adapt to the me of my present self first.
First, when the transmission bug of the group mission was discovered, he stayed on Ruskaina Island for half a month. After that, he frequently went back and forth between his own world and Hancock’s world, trying to cultivate his domineering power. This time, he went out to broaden his horizons and stayed in the mission world for more than half a month.
If the only difference is in time, it would be less than two months in total, so it wouldn’t be a big problem.
But if we also take into account the fact that in order to improve her physical fitness as quickly as possible, she had to eat meat from Hancock’s world for every meal except for those with her family.
The overall changes are somewhat obvious.
Although her height hasn’t changed much for the time being, during this period, she has been wearing underwear that is one size larger than before, but she still feels a little tight…
Under the gaze of Miss Kaguya Shinomiya, who did not want to reveal her name, who was so shocked that her eyes lost their luster, Fujiwara Chika placed the giant object in front of her directly on the table. She instantly felt a lot more relieved and let out a long sigh.
【044】I was taken advantage of by someone who was careless (old version)
“Yonglin~ I’ve brought you some medicine again.”
A world in a pot.
The silver-haired woman who was deconstructing the T virus heard the voice and put down the test tube containing a drop of blue T virus concentrate.
“I think it may be something that Her Royal Highness the Princess said to you before, which gave you some wrong perception of my abilities.”
Looking at the small plastic bottle in Si Chen’s hand that should contain some medicine, Bayi Yonglin sighed: “Just the T virus and the dead body virus you gave me yesterday are enough for me to study for a while.”
“This time it’s different.”
Si Chen put the small plastic bottle on the table in front of Bayi Yonglin: “Panacea, if I can research something, that would be the best. If I can’t, it won’t be a loss if I can provide you with some inspiration.”
“A panacea?”
Bayi Yonglin was stunned for a moment: “Which panacea?”
“It could be any other one, the one that can cure all diseases.”
Bayi Yonglin stood up suddenly.
“I don’t have much information about this medicine. I only know that it can cure all known diseases within two hours.”
Si Chen revealed the record of the panacea in the Foundation’s files: “Or to be more precise, all the ‘diseases’ known to the organization that had previously obtained it.”
“All ‘diseases’?”
Bayi Yonglin unscrewed the bottle cap and saw three small red pills inside. After a slight hesitation, he picked up one and handed the other two back along with the bottle: “If you are just doing research, one pill will be enough for now.”
“Keep them all. Before I came to see you, I had already sent one tablet to Kaguya. Besides, I have some left. These three tablets are for you.”
Si Chen, who understood what she meant, spoke.
The SCP-500-panacea that he won in the lottery has a unit of “×1”, but this “1” is not 1 tablet, but 1 bottle –
A small plastic jar used for medicine that was very common in Europe and the United States in later generations, containing a full 100 tablets of panacea!
Unless someone really uses it to treat “incurable illnesses” like hangovers like the D-class personnel in the Foundation document, who is not sure whether he is really that stupid or has other ulterior motives, this amount should be enough.
“Then I’ll be welcome.”
Upon hearing this, Bayi Yonglin decisively put away all three panaceas.
“When storing, make sure to store it in a dry, cool environment away from strong light.”
Si Chen reminded him, and then talked about the next thing: “I’m going to the Western Country in a while, I guess… well, try to come back within half a month?”
The purpose of going to the West is of course to see the wind and the fragrance.
Before leaving the sunflower field, he had told Feng Jianyouxiang that after returning home to report his safety, he would go back to accompany the crying sunflower to bask in the sun.
Because I went to study the world of Apocalypse to complete a task, it has been delayed for more than half a month.
Although according to the time concept of the thousand-year-old demon, He Fengjian Youxiang’s “wake up – get up – enjoy the flowers – go to sleep” is a leisurely daily routine, and the other party probably won’t take it too seriously if there is a delay of three to five months, but since he is free now, Si Chen feels that there is no need to drag on.
Coincidentally, after the previous ten-draw draw was over, he still had more than 9,000 points in his hand, so he went to browse the group mall. Among the 128 items refreshed this week, he found something that Fengjian Youxiang might be interested in. He could take it as a return gift for the melon seeds he had eaten in the flower field last time.
“Come on, accompany me on a long journey.”
Arriving at the courtyard, Si Chen patted Ling Yue Xian Ji who was lying on the porch basking in the sun.
“Far away? Where to?”
Fairy Lingyue stretched, opened her eyes, and stood up gracefully.
“The West Country… the place where we first met. I’ll tell you where to go next when we get there.”
“…You don’t want to ride on me to travel, do you?”
Fairy Lingyue bared her teeth.
“Help each other.”
Si Chen used his fingers as a comb to comb her hair and asked curiously, “Why do you call yourself ‘concubine’ too? Did you learn it from Kaguya?”
“I am the heir of the most noble bloodline of the dog demon clan, and I will be the king who rules over all the demons in the Western Kingdom in the future. Is there anything wrong with calling myself that?”
Fairy Lingyue turned her head away proudly: “So, don’t even think about letting me be your mount or anything like that! If this gets out, how can I be king in the future?”
“This is easy, just don’t let it get out.”
Si Chen scratched her chin: “If you don’t tell me and I don’t tell you, who would know?”
“Don’t try to fool me. Is this something that should not be spread out?!”
Fairy Lingyue patted the floor with her claws.
“Hey, what else could that be?”
Her narrow eyes met Si Chen’s. At this moment, Fairy Lingyue really felt her teeth itching.
When the man and the dog left the bamboo forest, Si Chen finally sat on the back of Fairy Lingyue.
A thin cloud of mist enveloped the two of them. The demonic power lingering between the clouds and the mist could effectively block the view from outside.
The method to persuade Fairy Lingyue is also very simple.
After she came to Yongyuan Pavilion, during the time when Sichen went to study the Apocalypse, although she got along well with Kaguya, the scale of Yongyuan Pavilion was not large because Sichen was just an ordinary person when he built the bamboo house to live in. He had a room, Kaguya had a room, and after Yonglin arrived, she occupied another guest room… that was it.
So, during this period of time, Fairy Lingyue was actually just lying around in places like the front porch to get by.
Although as a monster, she doesn’t really care about these things, and the floor of the entire bamboo building is covered with mats or blankets that will never get dirty, and sleeping on the floor is actually quite comfortable, but since she will be spending a long time in the Eternal Pavilion, it is not appropriate to keep living like this.
The condition that Si Chen offered was that after he returned this time, he would build a bamboo house for her in front of or on the side of the main building as her residence.
As for building the building, it was originally in the plan. If Si Chen hadn’t remembered the agreement with Sunflower Field, he might have already prepared the bamboo needed for the building…
Seeing that she was in high spirits, Si Chen didn’t bother disturbing her mood with such trivial matters.
It has to be said that as a future clan leader who has royal blood and claims to be invincible among the younger generation of dog demons in the Western Country, and is therefore allowed to travel, Fairy Lingyue’s basic qualities are still very good.
The true form of a demon dog over ten meters tall was revealed, carrying Si Chen all the way through the wind and clouds, mountains and rivers.
The journey that previously took several days was completed in less than half a day this time.
Returning to the place where they first met, Si Chen pointed her in the direction of the sunflower field.
After running for dozens of miles, Fairy Lingyue slammed on the brakes and stopped.
“We can’t go any further in this direction. Ahead is the territory of a thousand-year-old demon. Let’s go around it.”
One claw scratched the ground unconsciously, leaving claw marks. Ling Yue Fairy said, “I’m not afraid of you laughing at me. The reason why our dog demon clan can now occupy the Western Kingdom is because hundreds of years ago, the great demon that once ruled the Western Kingdom somehow offended that person and was killed by him.”
“Lord of the Four Seasons Flowers?”
“It’s great that you know.”
Ling Yue Xian Ji breathed a sigh of relief: “I almost forgot that we met near here.”
“Then don’t beat around the bush. She’s the friend I’m looking for.”
Si Chen patted Ling Yue Fairy’s body and signaled her to move forward.
Fairy Lingyue was stunned on the spot.
【045】Basic plant bag, sunflower that can produce sunlight (old version)
Chat group: People in Zongman, unlimited entry upgrades: [045] Basic plant bag, sunflowers that can produce sunshine
I actually went in…
He carried Si Chen on his back tremblingly to the edge of the sunflower field and watched with his own eyes as the sunflowers in the field tilted to the left and right as Si Chen approached, leaving him a path leading to the center of the field.
Fairy Lingyue rubbed her eyes.
Although I was able to accept his invitation and go home with him, not only because I had witnessed his strength during the few days they were together, but also because he was a person who was not obsessed with evil.
No matter how much he hated those monsters who enjoyed killing and used humans as food, he would not transfer any of that disgust to her who was also a monster. Instead, he still regarded her as… well, should it still be a friend at that time?
This attitude made her feel very comfortable.
But he was actually friends with the legendary Lord of Flowers of the Four Seasons, which really made Fairy Lingyue a little overwhelmed.
You know, this is a real thousand-year-old demon that has been in legends for thousands of years!
Small monsters, low-level monsters, mid-level monsters, high-level monsters, and big monsters.
This is a ranking system used by the monsters in Japan to distinguish the strengths of each other based on factors such as monster power and life level.
Because there is only one big monster above the high-level monsters, there is no further division. The gap between big monsters is even bigger than the gap between high-level monsters and small monsters.
The Lord of the Four Seasons Flowers is undoubtedly an existence that stands at the top of the great monsters, just like the Monster Sage and the Four Heavenly Kings of the Ghost Mountain.
Recalling the rumors she had heard since she was a child, “If you don’t obey, the Lord of the Four Seasons Flowers will come and tie you up and use you as fertilizer,” Fairy Lingyue rested her chin on her folded front paws, and lay obediently motionless.
“When did you get involved with these guys?”
In the sunflower field.
After Si Chen approached, Feng Jian Youxiang pointed in the direction of Ling Yue Xian Ji outside the flower field.
“It has nothing to do with the tribe behind her. It’s just her.”
Si Chen said: “I met her on the way home after I left your place last time. I felt that she was quite pleasing to my eyes, so I brought her back.
“Let’s not talk about her. This is the gift I prepared for you on my first official visit. I don’t know if you like it or not.”
He took out a palm-sized bag that looked like linen but felt very soft and delicate.
Feng Jian Youxiang reached out to take it, pulled the thin string tied to the bag, and took a look inside.
“seed?”
Some kind of space-related method was applied to the inside of the bag, separating it into dozens of independent spaces the size of a fist.
But that’s obviously not the point.
The real gift should be that each small space contains nine seeds of different types.
“Yes, seeds.”
The official name of this bag in the group system is “Basic Plant Bag”, which contains nine pea shooter seeds, nine sunflower seeds, nine cherry bomb seeds, nine nut seeds, nine potato mine seeds…
To put it simply, this basic plant bag contains nine copies of all the plant types that have appeared in the first generation of Plants vs. Zombies games.
This also includes upgraded plants such as machine gun shooter, ice watermelon pitcher, corn cannon, as well as special plants such as exploding nuts and giant nut wall.
“Yes, I like it very much.”
After accurately picking out the seeds of sunflower and twin sunflower from dozens of plants and feeling the activity inside, Yuuka Kazami showed a happy smile on her face.
“Let’s plant it and see.”
Si Chen said, “You can’t tell the special features of these seeds just by looking at them.”
A few minutes later, in the middle of the flower field.
A small piece of land was vacated by the sunflowers that originally grew here, uprooted and moved to the side.
Si Chen and Feng Jian Youxiang each took out an ordinary sunflower seed from the basic plant bag and buried it in the soil.
Two sunflowers broke through the soil and shook their heads towards the sun.
Led by them, the other sunflowers around them quickly blended into their rhythm.
Yuuka Kazami stood in front of one of the sunflowers, carefully feeling its condition.
The growth was very gratifying. Before she could inject the vitality of nature into it to speed up its maturity, the buried seeds had already taken root, sprouted and broke through the soil in just a few breaths. But her intuition told her that the gift Si Chen sent should be more special than this.
After waiting quietly for a while, Feng Jianyouxiang’s eyes fixed –
More than a hundred tiny orange-yellow and golden light spots quietly emerged with the two sunflowers as the center.
She tried to touch one of the light spots, and it shattered, but she felt the warmth of the sun coming from her fingertips.
“Sunlight?”
“Sunlight.”
Si Chen also raised his hand and touched one. With the help of the entry [Photosynthesis (Purple)], he could be sure that the sunlight produced by the sunflowers was exactly the same as the light emitted by the sun above his head.
About half a minute later.
A new round of more than a hundred light spots emerged, and those light spots that appeared last time and had not yet been punctured by Si Chen or Feng Jian Youxiang shattered on their own, casting a layer of golden glow on the sunflowers within a radius of more than ten meters.
At this moment, through the feedback received from the sounds of all things through his seeing and hearing color, he could hear that the joyful emotions of those sunflowers covered in golden glow had risen by several degrees.
“You can’t do that.”
Feng Jian Youxiang tapped the sunflower that smiled the happiest among them and said, “How could you eat them all and not leave some for the sisters who are farther away?”
The sunflowers that were criticized by her drooped their heads, and the other sunflowers that had just received the sunlight from the sunflowers also tilted their flower disks to other places.
So when the next round of light spots shattered, the light golden glow spread directly to the entire sunflower field, covering all the sunflowers within a radius of several miles with a layer of faint light that would be completely unnoticed in the daytime if not observed carefully.
“Do me a favor and plant these kids together.”
Feng Jian Youxiang took out the remaining seven sunflower seeds and nine twin sunflower seeds from the basic plant bag and put three of each into Si Chen’s hand: “You go to this area, and I’ll go to that area. Just spread the seeds evenly.”
She moved her arms and drew two semicircles with the center of the flower field where they were currently standing as the origin.
Seeing that she had squatted down and planted one sunflower seed and three sunflower seeds in the center of the sunflower field just like the two sunflowers in front, Si Chen also walked towards the semicircle assigned to him with six seeds.
【046】Invitation from Kazami Yuuka (old version)
A few hours later.
The sun sets and night falls.
Although the sun is no longer visible in the sky, the nine sunflowers and nine twin sunflowers planted in various places in the flower field still produce sunlight during the day.
After nightfall, nine more sun mushrooms appeared that had woken up.
Therefore, the entire sunflower field is still shrouded in a faint golden glow, appearing like a dream in the pitch-black night.
Strolling among them, Fumiaki Youxiang’s mood was as happy as the sunflowers around her. Even her steps were obviously relaxed and cheerful.
After walking around the flower fields, we returned to the center.
Hearing the approaching footsteps, Si Chen, who felt like he had only been lying there for a short time, opened his eyes and asked, “So soon?”
“For me, it’s the same everywhere.”
Feng Jian Youxiang sat down next to Si Chen: “Are you practicing?”
“Well, I’m just sitting around doing nothing.”
Si Chen also sat up.
He lay on the ground with his eyes closed, relaxed his body and mind, and let his existence blend into nature… During this process, on the entry system notification interface whose prompt sound he had blocked, prompts such as [[Spiritual Power (Lv. 7)] Gain 1 experience point] and [[Observation Haki (Lv. 37)] Gain 1 experience point] kept appearing.
“The last time you came, I didn’t seem to sense any signs of spiritual power from you.”
Feng Jian Youxiang tilted her head slightly and looked at Si Chen’s profile.
“I awakened after returning from you.”
Si Chen touched the sunflower beside him and said, “It’s all thanks to the gifts you gave me last time.”
This was the plant that he accidentally stepped on when Yakumo Yukari threw it at him through the gap. After being healed by Fumiaki Yuuka, she did not bear a grudge against him. Instead, she gave him more than ten melon seeds, allowing him to successfully obtain the entry [Photosynthesis (White)].
“Among all the humans I have ever met, your spiritual talent is the best.”
Feng Jian Youxiang said: “Like you just said, we have nothing to do anyway, do you want to spar with each other?”
“……?”
A question mark popped up on Si Chen’s forehead.
How did the topic jump to “fighting” out of the blue?
“According to my experience, combat and training are two inseparable parts.”
Feng Jian Yuxiang explained seriously: “In other words, fighting itself is also a part of training. Fighting with opponents who are equal to or stronger than you can quickly put the strength you improve through your usual training into practice.”
“…I don’t object to that.”
Take the basic swordsmanship for example. I practiced in the bamboo forest for nine years, but my level was only Lv.27. After unlocking the new training ground, Ruskaina Island in the One Piece world, in just one or two months, the level of the entry increased from Lv.29 when I obtained the Minghong Sword to Lv.35.
Of course, part of this is due to the benefits brought by the Minghong Sword.
But the most important thing should be the numerous land beasts on Ruskaina Island.
Of course, then again.
If he had not spent the previous nine years building up his foundation, one stroke at a time, even if he was able to unlock the Ruskaina Island training ground nine years later, his basic swordsmanship would not have been able to improve so quickly.
Just like the famous teacher Kaido, “One Hundred Masters” in the world of One Piece.
If it weren’t for the strong physique that Luffy had trained himself year after year in Windmill Village, and if it weren’t for the two years of domineering training that Rayleigh gave him after the Battle of Marineford.
There wouldn’t be any of the later One-Stick Ryusakura, Two-Stick Tyrant, and Three-Stick Fruit Awakening.
Let’s get back to the topic.
Looking at Feng Jian Youxiang who was eager to try beside him, Si Chen confirmed: “Let’s make it clear first… just a sparring match?”
Feng Jianyouxiang nodded in agreement.
A white and delicate fist blasted towards Si Chen with the force of thunder.
Although his Observation Haki had already captured the attack, as the distance between the two was less than half a meter, it was obviously not realistic to draw the sword at this time.
In the crisis, Si Chen had to raise his hand and use the armed color domineering to wrap around his hardened forearm to resist.
Bang–
The air is surging.
Si Chen’s figure flew backwards for hundreds of meters before he barely stopped.
Before he could react, a magic cannon flew over a hundred meters and hit him.
Then came the second, third, and fourth shots…
The power of the magic cannon was not very great. He felt that even if he gave up defense and took a hit with his body, it would not be fatal, but that was the problem.
More than ten days ago, when he first came to the sunflower field, he saw how Kazami Yuuka used the magic cannon to break the gap of Yakumo Yukari.
The magic cannon shot at that time was faster than the ones now, and its power far exceeded the sum of the several magic cannon shots.
If this is a fight to the death, he has to be prepared to risk his life.
“Huh~~~”
The second-order gene lock was directly released. Relying on the information gap that Feng Jianyouxiang didn’t know that he had this kind of explosive means, and relying on the speed that increased several times in the unlocked state, Si Chen flashed in the gap between the two magic cannons and drew his sword.
Amid the sound of birds chirping, the scarlet blade light cut through an oncoming magic cannon until it reached in front of Yuuka Kazami, where she waved her parasol to scatter it.
“I underestimated you.”
Feeling the unexpected power from the sword light just now, Feng Jian Youxiang’s mouth curled up with a hint of madness. When the next magic cannon was fired from the tip of the umbrella, the power was several times that of the previous one.
Spiritual power was injected into the cloud and bird pattern on the Minghong Sword, awakening the sword’s spirituality. Si Chen also responded with a slash that was several times more powerful.
“You said you were friends…but you still ended up fighting?”
Outside the sunflower field.
Feeling the violent energy fluctuations coming from the flower field, Fairy Lingyue, who was originally resting on a flat stone, stood up suddenly and looked at the two figures in the flower field who were sometimes fighting with magic cannons and swords, and sometimes fighting with fists, feet, swords and umbrellas. A trace of anxiety flashed in her eyes.
Whether it was the Flower Field Lord’s magic cannon or Si Chen’s sword light, in her perception, they both had terrifying power that could take her away in an instant.
And look at the status of the two people.
She could clearly feel that Feng Jian Youxiang possessed a kind of calmness that Si Chen could not find much of.
So… should he use a secret method to stimulate the latent power in his blood to give Si Chen a chance, or should he take advantage of the fact that Si Chen seems to be able to hold on for a while and the Lord of the Four Seasons Flowers’ attention has not yet fallen on him, and rush back to Yongyuan Pavilion to ask for Si Chen’s help?
“Don’t panic, just watch, they are sparring~”
A voice suddenly sounded beside my ear.
It turned out to be a competition, I was shocked… Wait, who is talking? !
Fairy Lingyue was immediately furious.
“Don’t worry~ I’m not a bad demon, I’m just a person who was used and thrown away. I can only watch those two guys laughing and talking pitifully from a distance…”
The magic cannon and the sword light arrived in an instant, almost brushing against the crown of Fairy Lingyue and shattering the gap above her head.
【047】Magic Cannon, Energy Release (Old Version)
“I guess the changes here caught her attention.”
After driving away the annoying spirit, Kazami Yuuka pointed to the golden light covering the sunflower field and talked about the possible reason for Yakumo Yukari’s appearance this time:
“We were born at similar ages, and we supported each other for a while when we were weak. Although we later separated, she would occasionally come to visit me… Do you want to continue?”
“After being interrupted by her like this, I always feel like I can’t continue the conversation.”
Si Chen put Ming Hong back into the sheath: “How about coming back tomorrow?”
Feng Jian Youxiang nodded, glanced at his Minghong sword, and asked, “Is this the sword you always use?”
Si Chen nodded and said, “When I first came into contact with these, my conditions were limited. The use of a knife is simpler than that of a gun or sword. As long as you can chop, it’s fine. It’s just right for an ordinary person like me who doesn’t have a master.”
“Practicing to your level requires more than just being able to chop.”
Feng Jian Youxiang shook her head: “I have also seen some guys who claim to have practiced swordsmanship for hundreds of years. Their ‘swordsmanship’, to put it bluntly, is to treat the sword as a sharpened stick, relying purely on brute force and a good sword that won’t be broken by them…”
Compare that to those guys.
Whether he was slashing with his sword from thousands of meters away to counter her magic cannon, or using the blade to directly collide with her parasol after getting close, the swordsmanship that Si Chen displayed during the sparring just now had undoubtedly reached another level.
However, the only thing worth mentioning seems to be his knife skills.
In terms of aspects other than swordsmanship, whether it was boxing or the use of spiritual power and that invisible armor, Si Chen’s performance could be said to be completely without any rules.
The lack of rules is not surprising in itself.
The so-called routines, after all, are for the purpose of achieving ultimate victory. Some of the monsters have no learning and have honed their skills entirely through repeated life-and-death battles.
But Si Chen’s method was disorganized, the kind in which before his consciousness could react, his body had already instinctively dodged based on the information captured by its senses and seized every opportunity to counterattack.
This is what we, the gene-locked players, are like.
The fighting instinct is very strong after the first-level gene lock is activated, but if you want to completely utilize those instincts that are usually dormant, it is estimated that you have to unlock the third-level gene lock at least.
Unlike the first two stages, the effects of unlocking are mostly manifested on the body.
The main development direction of the third-level gene lock is the brain.
The development of the brain area brings about an increase in computing power. Only a mental state that is far superior to the past can achieve a clear memory of combat instincts.
“It is correct to identify a direction and move towards that goal, but we cannot completely ignore other things.”
As they walked, Feng Jian Youxiang and Si Chen said, “If you don’t have any talent in these areas, it’s fine. You can just continue to practice swordsmanship like you are now, but you have a high talent. According to my estimation, you only need to devote a small part of your energy to make your level in close combat and energy utilization reach 80% of your swordsmanship level. If you practice these two things, you will have almost no shortcomings unless you encounter some particularly disgusting abilities.”
“You may have a wrong understanding of my talent…”
Si Chen briefly introduced to her the effects of the first and second levels of the gene lock.
“I was wondering how you could have such a burst of strength and speed at that time.”
The wind saw the fragrance and suddenly realized.
Ten times the power and several times the speed…
When she realized this, she thought it was because she hadn’t fought an opponent she could take seriously for too long.
Under laziness.
Just a simple judgment of the situation of a target whose hard power is not as good as one’s own can lead to such a big deviation.
“So what is your level when you don’t open the gene lock?”
She asked curiously.
“Well… let’s use the ‘magic cannon’ that you are more familiar with as an example.”
Si Chen stopped and raised one hand under the gaze of Feng Jian Youxiang, with his index finger extended and spiritual power gathering at his fingertips. After a few breaths, a magic cannon as thick as a fist blasted towards the sky.
“…I think I understand.”
Feng Jian Youxiang nodded in understanding.
Si Chenlu’s move was actually not bad. Not only did he control the spiritual power well, so that it would not dissipate before hitting the target, but he also kept the spiritual power gathered into the magic cannon in a relatively violent state, so as to cause the greatest possible damage to the target when bombarding it.
But compared with the state of using every bit of force in the most appropriate place when unlocking the lock, the difference is not as great as heaven and earth, but one can be said to be in heaven and the other is underground.
“If you’re not in a hurry to leave, I’ll teach you some techniques for releasing my own magic cannons.”
Kazami Yuuka said.
Magic cannon.
This is a skill where the upper limit can be as high as the lower limit.
The basic principle of the magic cannon is to bombard the target with energy in the form of artillery bombardment or something close to it. There are two key points that determine its upper and lower limits. One is to reduce useless consumption as much as possible, and the other is to increase the amount of damage to the target caused by the released energy as much as possible.
If you don’t know how to use the magic cannon, for every 100 units of energy consumed, 99 units of the energy may be dissipated before hitting the target. Of the remaining 1 unit, 0.99 units may disintegrate due to various factors when it hits the target. In the end, only 0.01 units actually hit the target.
For those who use the magic cannon to perfection, for every 100 units of energy consumed, 99.99 units can hit the target. In the process of the magic cannon breaking through the air, the mutual collision between energies can cause a series of chain reactions, causing the target to suffer 99.99×99.99 or even higher damage in the end.
Yuuka Kazami is a monster who is very good at using magic cannons.
Since her birth, she has possessed high-level demonic powers that are far superior to those of monsters of the same level in both “quality” and “quantity”. It can be said that she has used magic cannons all the way to become the current Lord of the Four Seasons Flowers who can stop little monsters from crying at night.
Under her guidance.
The same spiritual power output as during the demonstration that night.
On the first day, Si Chen’s magic cannon shrank from the thickness of a fist to the thickness of a finger.
If before, using a magic cannon to bombard a stone could break it into pieces, now it can penetrate it directly.
On the second day, the finger-thick magic cannon continued to shrink and became about the size of a needle.
Facing the stone again, I can now pierce through it smoothly or turn it into stone powder after hitting it.
Day 3…
[You have obtained a new entry——[Energy Release (Lv.1)]]【Energy Release (Lv.1)】
[Techniques for regulating energy and then releasing it]【048】Perfect sparring partner – Kazami Yuuka (old version)
Following Feng Jianyouxiang to practice magic cannon, the term that came out of “practice” was not [Magic Cannon], but [Energy Release]…
Si Chen raised his eyebrows when he saw the result.
If the fact that the entry system really gave him new entries was considered a surprise, then this time, he could only say it was double happiness.
“It seems that you have mastered it?”
Seeing Si Chen, who had just been firing the magic cannon one by one, suddenly started firing with ten fingers after a brief pause, and the level of each magic cannon in the continuous firing state was no worse than the previous single-shot magic cannon, Feng Jian Youxiang spoke.
“I have only learned the basics. I still have a long way to go before I can master them.”
Si Chen said modestly.
Well…it’s not all modesty.
According to his experience in basic swordsmanship and domineering, even if one additional affix is obtained every 10 levels, the strength of this ability in related aspects can be significantly improved.
If you really want to show off an ability, you have to get it to Lv.20 or above.
[Spiritual Power] is an exception.
As a crucial energy cycle under the genetic lock system, there is a reason why this thing can be used as a symbol to distinguish between “supernatural” and “pseudo-supernatural” in the infinite series worldview.
Even if his spiritual power is only at Lv.1, it can bring considerable improvement when combined with his other abilities.
“That’s already considered mastery. The rest of the way depends on you. If you just keep imitating me, you will only…”
Halfway through her words, she felt that there was something wrong with Si Chen’s gaze towards her, so Feng Jian Youxiang asked in confusion: “Do you have anything to say?”
“I remember you said the other day that in addition to energy release techniques like magic cannons, my other weakness is close combat after leaving the sword?”
After spending the past few days together, Si Chen has gained some understanding of Feng Jian Youxiang’s personality. He knows that if he needs anything when communicating with her, there is no need to make any empty talk and he can just state his demands directly.
When we met for the first time, I cracked some melon seeds and a talent entry – photosynthesis came out.
Although the first one to do this was the whimpering sunflower, without the help of Kazami Yuuka, the entry would not have been able to transform from white to purple in one go.
When they met for the second time, less than three days of special training in magic cannon allowed him to gain another ability term: Energy Release.
Once could be considered a coincidence, but this has happened twice. Si Chen felt that Feng Jian Youxiang was somewhat mysterious in helping with the entries.
“…Have you never had a serious close combat or fight with anyone or anything else before?”
Feng Jianyouxiang did not refuse, but asked him a question first.
“yes.”
In the first few years, I just stayed in Kaguya’s safe zone and never encountered any serious battles.
After joining the chat group, Kaguya’s safe zone was no longer covered, but he was given a Minghong sword. On the first day he got it, he gathered his energy and spirit and chopped it with all his strength by chance, gaining initial recognition from the spirituality in the sword, allowing him to easily chop out a scarlet sword light.
Later, after comprehending Haki and feeling the breath of all things through [Concept·Understanding (Red)], he was able to use the swordsman’s flying slash, making it even less likely that he would have the chance to engage in hand-to-hand combat.
Wait a moment.
“Don’t tell me…?”
He looked at Kazami Yuuka stiffly.
“It should be the one you have already thought of.”
Feng Jian Youxiang slowly rolled up her sleeves, revealing two white jade-like wrists: “Unlike the magic cannon, close combat does not require many techniques. If you fight more often, you will naturally learn it.”
Please finish your sentence, thank you.
What you really wanted to say just now must be “If you get beaten enough, you will learn it naturally”? !
“I will control my strength and speed to be on par with yours.”
Feng Jianyouxiang reminded: “It’s up to you whether you use your bare hands or a sword, but if you draw your sword, I will also use my umbrella as a weapon… Are you ready?”
“Brother Sichen, have you been beaten again?”
As soon as Si Chen arrived at Ruskaina, Mary, who was enjoying sunbathing on the beach, propped herself up and smiled at him.
“…Is it interesting?”
Si Chen looked at her speechlessly, without any intention of defending himself by saying “How can cultivation be considered as getting beaten?” to make the air on the beach more cheerful.
“Of course it’s interesting.”
Mary nodded sincerely.
“Hey……!”
Rolling his eyes at her in annoyance, Si Chen flew into the forest, and soon returned to the beach dragging a giant beast that was thirty or forty meters long.
As usual, he called for some “firepower” support from Mary and asked her to use the magic of fire to roast the giant beast directly.
Si Chen quickly ate all the meat from the giant beast.
The liberation of the second-level gene lock brought complete control over his body, allowing him to speed up digestion and quickly absorb energy from food when necessary.
After eating, he came to the gravity house located not far away under the cliff by the sea. He put on the bracelet that could adjust how many times the standard gravity of the earth he would be subjected to after entering the gravity house. After setting the parameters, he entered the gravity house and started today’s exercise.
During the daytime in the main world, under the recovery effect brought by [Photosynthesis (Purple)], engage in high-intensity close combat with Kazami Yuuka to increase the experience levels of Armament Haki, Observation Haki, Spiritual Power and other terms.
At night, he returned to the world of One Piece, had a big meal like he did just now to reward his body, and then entered the gravity house that Hancock had drawn in the lottery to exercise.
This has been his schedule for the past week or so.
Although the daily life of running between two worlds is busy, the rewards brought by this busyness are very gratifying.
【Photosynthesis (purple)】
【Basic Sword Skills (Lv.39)】
【Armament Haki (Lv.35)】
【Observation Haki (Lv.42)】
【Heroic Haki (Lv.61)】
[Spiritual Power (Lv.28)]【Energy Release (Lv.21)】
【Physical Skills (Lv.27)】
This is the data that Si Chen currently displays on the entry system panel.
The last item in the ability column, [Physical Skills], is the close combat item he acquired through intensive sparring with Yuuka Kazami. It is a skill that allows one to decide whether to punch, swing, kick, or knee according to the specific situation in battle, turning the body into a perfect weapon.
【049】Chika Fujiwara’s Yearning for the Extraordinary (Old Version)
Eight or nine hours later.
After walking out of the gravity room and feeling the relief of returning to a normal gravity environment, Si Chen stretched his muscles and went into the sea to refresh himself.
Back to the beach.
At this time, in addition to Meili, there was also Fujiwara Chika here, who looked a little depressed.
“What’s going on?”
Si Chen sat down on a beach chair on the other side of Meili and asked.
“It’s still because of the domineering thing.”
Mellie replied.
After Hancock’s gravity training room was opened, in the past few days, Selina and Fubuki, who originally only had observation Haki, also successively comprehended armament Haki.
In addition, there are Hancock and Si Chen who master three colors of domineering, and Gwen who mastered two colors of domineering before the mission in the world of Apocalypse.
All in all, the two-color domineering style has almost become the standard configuration in the chat group.
However, Fujiwara Chika still has not made progress in the practice of Observation Haki and Armament Haki.
“I was thinking that after I had these eyes, I could use the ‘X-ray Eyes’ effect that allows me to see through and directly into the human body to comprehend the Armament Haki, or use the ‘Insight Eyes’ effect to comprehend the Observation Haki like Sister Gwen uses her premonition of danger to draw inferences… Sigh.”
Veins bulged around Fujiwara Chika’s eyes, and her azure blue pupils turned bluish-white, revealing the white eyes she had drawn in the ten-draw draw not long ago.
“Speaking of which, there is something I’m actually quite curious about. Can your Byakugan see through clothes?”
Si Chen looked at her rolling eyes and asked this question, which was actually the question he wanted to know when he watched Naruto before traveling through time.
“No! No, it’s not what you think!”
Fujiwara Chika was stunned for a moment, then a blush appeared on her pretty face after she reacted, and her voice became several degrees higher: “The creatures in the Byakugan perspective are aggregates composed of muscles, blood, bones and other things. It’s more like anatomy than dissection!”
“I see…”
Shaking his head, Si Chen brought the topic back on track: “I feel like you’ve formed a vicious cycle in your cultivation of domineering aura.”
The core of domineering is a collection of forces such as will and belief.
The stronger your self-belief, the stronger your domineering attitude.
The firmness of this belief cannot be achieved by just saying it, but requires you to truly believe in yourself from the bottom of your heart.
Fujiwara Chika is now in a vicious circle of “doubting whether she can still comprehend Haki” → “the more she doubts, the less likely she is to comprehend Haki” → “the less likely she is to comprehend Haki, the more doubtful she becomes”.
“I actually guessed this myself, but just because I can guess it doesn’t mean I can change my subconscious cognition in a targeted way…”
Fujiwara Chika sighed.
“How about trying another direction first?”
Si Chen suggested: “After you grow up through other extraordinary paths, it won’t be too late to come back and make up for the regrets in domineering aura.”
“The problem is that I don’t have much choice.”
Fujiwara Chika counted on her fingers: “In the worlds of Sister Fubuki, Sister Selina, and Sister Gwen, there are many superheroes or villains who can fly high and low, but the abilities of those people are basically the same as those of Sister Fubuki and Sister Gwen, which only apply to themselves.
“Miss Meili’s magic power is quite universal, but even if I can extract it, according to the magic system that Miss Meili introduced to me before, magic seals and bases are beyond my ability…”
“Where is the spiritual power?” Si Chen interrupted.
“I mean, do you want to consider the spiritual power of my world?”
Si Chen stretched out a hand towards her, and spiritual power gathered in his palm, evolving into two yin and yang fish, one black and one white, entangled together and rotating clockwise: “The essence of spiritual power is the innate spirituality that everyone is born with. It does not need to rely on a framework such as the magic base, just like domineering power. After awakening, it can be used freely in other worlds.”
“Huh???”
After making sure that she had not heard wrong, Fujiwara Chika was shocked.
Si Chen is an extremely cautious and careful person.
This is not only the opinion of Mary, who has had the most contact with him since he joined the group, but also the consensus of everyone in the group except him.
Let’s not talk about the distant future, let’s just talk about the information of each world.
The most conservative among them, after one or two months in the group, have basically told the basic situation of their own world and other information that others are interested in.
And what about Si Chen?
After the chat group was upgraded to a higher level, functions such as group live broadcast and group tasks that can be transmitted with BUGs were opened, making information transmission more convenient than before.
Everyone’s understanding of his world is limited to its ancient background and the existence of an extraordinary foundation.
He knew that the world was set in ancient times because he had once asked Fubuki, Selina and others to buy supplies for the 21st century.
He knew that the world had a supernatural foundation because he himself had said in the group that his world had gods, monsters, human supernatural beings like witches, and his own awakened spiritual power.
In addition, when everyone was talking about this matter one time, they suddenly realized that during the days he joined the group, he had not revealed any other useful information to them!
From what Mr. Si Chen said just now, he was going to give me access to his world?!
Before Fujiwara Chika could confirm, she found someone speaking faster than her—
“Brother Si Chen, are you finally going to be honest with us?”
“Why do you sound a little weird to me?”
Meili blinked and met his gaze.
“Then just pretend you don’t have it.”
Si Chen pulled the corner of his mouth and did not bother with her about it. He looked at Fujiwara Chika and said, “Do you want to give it a try? Although I have no evidence, my intuition tells me that your spiritual power aptitude should not be bad.”
“Of course!”
Fujiwara Chika agreed immediately, as if she was afraid that Si Chen would go back on his word: “Wait for me to go back and ‘reset’ the mission status, open a gap in time and space, and then we’ll set off!”
“Another gap in time and space?”
Meili at the side interrupted, “Didn’t you say that you should let your family get used to your current appearance first, so that they won’t really find anything wrong?”
“Oh…it doesn’t matter.”
Fujiwara Chika shook her head and started directly: “I feel that my sister and Moe have probably confirmed that there is something wrong with me, but at most they don’t know what the problem is, so they haven’t come to confront me yet.
“If I really stay too long with Mr. Si Chen, Miss Meili, you can lend me the amulet you mentioned last time that ‘can make people ignore the inconsistencies of the wearer’ for a while…”
