Arad's unruly savior

Chapter 3920 "Meeting with Online Friends"

The first day of the inventors' conference has temporarily come to a close, with many inventors and their works being particularly impressive and advancing to the next round.

That very night, Chimera planned to steal the Rubik's Cube, only to stumble upon a meeting of the core leadership of Clockwork House.

She eavesdropped for a while through the wall and got the gist of what had happened.

The Beast Fang Judgment proposed using the "Material Reconstruction" ability of the Rubik's Cube to alter the natural environment of a region.

And it was mentioned, intentionally or unintentionally, that the Rubik's Cube did not actually belong to the House of Clockwork; it was just entrusted to you by the Hermit Kelton.

Then, a disagreement arose within the House of Clockwork. Some believed that this was a major event that would benefit the divine realm. If the three major scholar factions joined forces, not only would the success rate be very high, but they could also take the opportunity to further explore the power of the Rubik's Cube and apply it to various fields in the future.

Some people believe that the power of the Rubik's Cube is too twisted and extremely uncontrollable. Currently, all experiments are being conducted on a small scale, and releasing its power on a large scale may cause unpredictable consequences. After all, this Rubik's Cube has been stained with human blood, and more than ten scholars have died.

However, what is unusual is that the Gear Workshop, which has always been conservative and old-fashioned, also agrees to use the power of the Rubik's Cube, which makes one wonder if there is something strange about it.

Ultimately, the two factions of the Clockwork House compromised and reached a consensus that they could take the Rubik's Cube a step further, but they needed to invite a reclusive figure to be present.

Theoretically, the First Hermit Mar and Kelton, who once sealed the Rubik's Cube, are the best candidates, but... these two "old guys" are always elusive, and although we know they are in the realm of gods, we don't know exactly where they are.

Therefore, the two people who could be contacted, either the Hermit Elgon or the Navigator of the Wandering Society, were taken into consideration.

"How lucky! My luck has been off the charts lately." The invisible Chimera smiled with relief, secretly marveling at how perfect its timing had been. A few days later, it probably would have missed its chance entirely.

If the three major scholar factions reach a cooperation agreement, there will definitely be more and more scholars near the Rubik's Cube. Since neither the people from the Beast Fang Judgment nor the Gear Workshop know how to use the Rubik's Cube, they will definitely send people over to learn the basic operation in advance after the agreement is reached.

Furthermore, she didn't know where the three major academic factions planned to use the Rubik's Cube for their experiments. They might move it in a few days, at which point it would be almost impossible to steal it.

"Never mind, I'll steal it first." Chimera quietly left the conference room, took out the balance compass, and located the position of the Rubik's Cube.

Influenced by the Rubik's Cube, she walked like a ghost to the top of it, made a mark on the ground, and then kept trying to find her way into the depths of the fog, searching layer by layer to get closer to the marked point.

This method is clumsy and primitive, but that's the most Chimera can do; her abilities are limited.

In fact, if the Rubik's Cube hadn't given her the coordinates, she would have been limited to the huge area of ​​"Clockwork House".

"Chimera, you're so lucky!"

A normal person might think about the coincidence behind this, but Chimera didn't care at all, only feeling that she was lucky and had a destiny with the Rubik's Cube.

The next level was easily reached by the Chimera using an optical cloaking device. This technology was learned by Riki from Maisheel and modified into a divine version. The Chimera then learned it and made a similar device by hand.

Walking through a corridor more than ten meters long, Chimera could not hear a sound. It was so quiet that it was as if all living beings had left. She walked alone in the holiday office building.

She wore silent ankle boots, walked slowly, and subconsciously pressed her pounding heart, muttering to herself:
"Luckily, I have big, thick breasts that can block out sound. If it were a flat chest, my heartbeat would probably be heard."

A few minutes later, after turning a corner, Chimera saw a room with a light on and a sign that read "Conference Room." Since it was her usual route, she glanced inside through the window with the curtains open as she passed by.

"No, has the Beast Fang Judgment gone mad...?"

Chimera's expression suddenly froze. It was as if something had exploded in her brain. Many different emotions rushed into her brain, seemingly born out of thin air, bringing with them a heart-wrenching pain.

The pain was only momentary, so fast that she wondered if she was hallucinating.

However, an even more serious problem arose because all the decorations in this room, including every single person, were exactly the same as those in the conference room on the previous floor.

They have the same faces and speak the same words, word for word.

"What the hell is this?" Chimera's eyelids twitched, her heart raced, and in an instant, many possibilities came to mind, such as the conference room sinking to the next level, or that Mist was a mobile mechanical city with a structure that could move.

However, this possibility cannot explain why they are saying the same things they did just ten minutes ago.

"Are you trying to scare me?"

"No, no, I'm just a newbie, I'm not worth them making such a fuss about."

Chimera stared intently at the identical conference room, listening to the same words she had already heard. Reason told her she should run away now; she might have been caught up in some inexplicable horror. But her inner intuition tempted her to stay.

"A Rubik's Cube, this must be the power of a Rubik's Cube."

After a moment's thought, Chimera smiled, happily letting go of her own thoughts and following her intuition.

"Brave Chimera, unafraid of difficulties!"

The third or fourth basement level...?
Chimera stood in the middle of a corridor, lightly stamping her foot. Her intuition told her that this place was directly above the Rubik's Cube, but she hadn't gone deep enough and needed to continue down.

A figure stood in the dim light, with only a few glimpses of light from elsewhere. The person was wearing engineer-style trousers and an underwear-style top that exposed most of their ample breasts. They appeared as if suddenly by ghost.

Upon getting closer, Chimera discovered that the other person looked exactly like her and smiled at her, saying, "You've finally arrived."

"I'm here." Chimera smiled, then swiftly shot an arrow through the opponent's body, hurried past, ignoring the blood flowing on the ground, which was still warm.

There was no room left in her mind for logical reasoning; there was only one thing, one thought… a Rubik's Cube.

Whatever I see, I associate it with the Rubik's Cube; whatever I hear, I associate it with the Rubik's Cube; whatever I think of, I still connect it to the Rubik's Cube.

“Haha, another one exactly like him…” Chimera stared at a scholar who seemed to be working overtime late into the night. This wasn’t the first time she had seen him; it had happened four or five times.

boom!
The invisibility device on its waist suddenly exploded, emitting sparks, and the chimera, having lost its invisibility, was exposed to the enemy's view.

However, the other person seemed not to see her, muttering something about "her hairline receding again," and walked straight past.

Not long after, the exact same person walked past that spot again, saying exactly the same things.

Chimera didn't care about anything else and continued rushing down. When she passed a glass that reflected her image, she turned her head and saw that behind her, one "Chimera" after another was crowding the already narrow passage.

Some chimeras were very tall, so tall that their heads could touch the ceiling; some chimeras were thin and long, like stick figures that had been stretched violently; some chimeras were attacking other chimeras... When the chimera turned around to look, all the "chimeras" stopped moving at the same time, and their eyes, filled with many emotions, all looked at her and made eye contact with her.

A moment later, the chimera quickly turned and rushed down the stairs to the next floor, shouting:
"The Rubik's Cube is mine, and none of you can take it from me."

The chimeras behind them also started moving, all rushing deeper into the depths.

boom!
The alarms and barriers of the Clockwork House were all triggered, and for a moment, the sirens blared loudly and deafeningly. Magical power surged forth, flames filled the narrow passage, high-voltage currents raged across the floor, and the headquarters building of the Clockwork House was illuminated by a blinding light from the inside out.

As Chimera ran, she casually tossed aside the props she had carefully prepared, just to reduce her body weight and increase her speed.

As it ran, Chimera lost its footing and its body began to fall involuntarily, exhibiting a freefall posture. Below it was pitch black, and it could not see anything, as if it were a bottomless abyss.

boom!
The chimera crashed heavily to the ground, causing a moment of dizziness. A sound of bones cracking rang out, and blood gushed out.

She didn't know where she had fallen. Through her blurry vision, Chimera saw a suspended Rubik's Cube. The cube was of average size, about the size of an adult's fist. Each side was golden, sparkling and lovely. It was suspended about one meter above the ground.

"A Rubik's Cube!"

The chimera's eyes lit up, and it immediately wriggled its body toward that direction, its path streaked with blood, unable to stand.

Behind her, many chimeras wriggled toward the Rubik's Cube, shouting the same thing.

…………

Mist and haze.

The Third Princess, the cool Cyrus, and the strong-legged Saler leisurely strolled around the night market, played around, and bought some late-night snacks, including some greasy and spicy ones.

Saler's dojo has never restricted food. In the early stages of the fighting lineage, the body needs a lot of nutritional support, and food is the main source of nutrition before one can absorb the magic power of heaven and earth.

It doesn't matter how much you eat, as long as you train hard enough, you can burn it off.

"I think I've gained a little weight." The Third Princess pinched her stomach. Although she couldn't feel any fat, it didn't seem as flat and firm as before, and she didn't have abs anymore.

Saller reprimanded her gently, "You haven't been training hard enough lately, Catherine. You've been too relaxed in the realm of the gods. You can't slack off on the path of martial arts."

"Huh? Master, you don't let me diet because you're eating too." The Third Princess looked at the takoyaki in her master's hand with a smile. It was a huge portion, but now there was only a small portion left.

“I’m not like you,” Saler replied without changing his expression.

The Third Princess puffed out her cheeks. That's true, it's definitely different. Even though her master no longer needs the usual training methods, he still maintains a very high level of self-discipline in his training every day.

Especially her thighs, which were used to train the Martial God Step, had perfect muscle lines, strong and powerful. She had personally watched her master squat down from Chongquan Land and jump directly into the mist.

The Third Princess stared at Saler's thighs, a thoughtful expression on her face.

"Catherine, what are you looking at?"

"I was thinking, Master, could you break the sugarcane in half?" The Third Princess blurted out without thinking.

In the past, she had practiced the Martial God Step, and her thighs could clamp down on Ye Lin to the point of ecstasy. Later, she lost some of her strength.

"Sugarcane?" Saler frowned.

The Third Princess's mind suddenly clicked, and she quickly tried to cover it up, laughing, "Ah, yes, it's sugarcane. We just passed by and saw it. It's sugarcane for juicing, freshly squeezed by a machine. Could you squeeze it between your thighs and the sugarcane juice would flow out?"

“Definitely not.” Cyrus nodded slightly, but his gaze fell on the Third Princess, as if to say, “I understand what you were thinking.”

I think Senior Saler's strength should be able to restrain Ye Lin.

"You two are acting strangely." Saler didn't pay much attention; young people often say things that "older people" wouldn't understand.

Turning a corner, Saller and Cyrus stopped in unison, their gazes suddenly sharpening, filled with a terrifying intensity, as they looked toward the Clockwork House area, at the most central high-rise building.

“Something’s not right there,” Cyrus said.

Then, the two looked up again. They didn't know when, but a very thick layer of white fog had risen in the misty sky, covering the stars overhead, and a beautiful figure was faintly visible.

The Mist God, standing in the middle, immediately sensed something, nodded slightly towards the two of them, and then pointed his finger, tearing away the illusory disguise and revealing a certain truth.

The core building of the Clockwork House looked as if it had been neatly cut with a sharp knife, turning into a dense grid of small squares, each only the size of a fingertip. The overall outline had not yet collapsed, but there were clear traces of the cutting, giving it a strong sense of horror at first glance.

At this moment, a scholar emerged. He too had been cut into a dense grid, and through the tiny gaps, one could see the flesh and blood inside, as well as the blood that had stopped flowing.

“What’s going on? A curse, or an illusion?” Cyrus whispered.

"You must be the Mist God of the God Realm, the one in the family group... Wasted Mist? I'm Isabella, hello." The Third Princess hesitated for a moment, then called out the Mist God's online name in the second half of her sentence.

"it's me."

The Mist God nodded slightly, also remembering this princess; she was known for her flat chest in the family group chat.

Saler asked directly, "Is there anything we can help you with?"

The Mist God replied, "The Rubik's Cube has gone out of control. It has the ability to reconstruct matter, replicate, enlarge, and influence minds."

"I suspect that the Rubik's Cube solved itself over a long period of time, reconstructing Kelton's seal, which caused the seal to break and produced these abnormal situations."

"I will suppress the Rubik's Cube. There will be resistance in the process, and power will leak out. Please help me rescue the creature inside."

The Mist God made his move directly, and the misty sky instantly changed shape. A near-divine power descended and slammed down on the Clockwork House, which was divided into countless tiny squares.

At the same time, the chimera crawled up to the Rubik's Cube, its face showing excitement, and grabbed the golden cube.
