Arad's unruly savior

Chapter 3950 If I were flat-chested...

Chimeras are archers, but they are also capable of melee combat. They are very skilled with axes and greatswords, or rather, they don't need to lose their chimera bows, as the Cube is enough.

The reason why the interlocking bow is still used is largely due to the influence of the traditional culture of the divine realm.

She stood behind the persona of fear, cleaved the other's head with an axe, and through the cracked skull came colorful liquid. She laughed:

"Don't worry, it's just an axe."

The Chimera with the fear personality slowly turned its head to look at her, its face filled with surprise. Then it turned into a pool of multicolored liquid on the spot, as if a painter had accidentally spilled its palette, or as if spray paint cans had been mixed together.

The complex and chaotic colors flew more than ten meters away, where she was reborn. She was still wrapped in that large coat, wearing a mask, with the collar turned up high, looking shy and weak.

"How did you do that? Within a certain range of me, you shouldn't even have the strength to breathe," the fearful personality asked in bewilderment.

Chimera transformed the axe in his hand into a chimera bow, drew the bowstring taut like a full moon, and the bow made a sound of straining under the weight, as if it would break at any moment. Then, he released his fingers, and an arrow shot out with a sharp whooshing sound, leaving a trail of white air behind it.

Then her Rubik's Cube lit up with golden light, and the burst of arrows instantly split into millions, like a torrential downpour engulfing the fearful personality. As they approached their target, some of the arrows transformed into greatswords, axes, and daggers, and a storm of weapons descended.

The fearful personality did not sit idly by; she used many broken Rubik's Cubes to construct a defensive barrier. The thick, golden barrier had a grid-like surface, resembling a Rubik's Cube softened into a ball, attempting to defend against and nullify the opponent's abilities.

However, her defenses proved ineffective. Many sharp arrows ignored the golden barrier and pierced her body, creating clusters of blood of various colors that slowly seeped into her large coat, forming a human-shaped hedgehog.

"You don't have the personality of courage, so how did you manage to do it?" the fearful personality continued to ask.

She stopped struggling. That's the nature of fear; it can easily engulf all split personalities, creating an antagonistic effect that symbolizes the deepest "code" of humanity.

However, once fear is overcome, it's like pulling out the teeth of a venomous snake at its vital spot, or a tiger without limbs; its harmfulness is greatly reduced, and instead, other aspects of personality are restrained as if by a natural enemy.

Fear should be the enemy of courage, but this body shouldn't have it. Chimera doesn't possess that noble quality of courage; her mind is filled only with the recklessness of taking a gamble.

The chimera, carrying a savage axe, chuckled and swaggered over, like a hunter scrutinizing its prey with no escape. After a few seconds of staring, it cleared its throat and said:

"You must be wondering why, even though I was affected by you and felt as weak as a kitten that hadn't been weaned, I suddenly had the strength to strike you down."

"Then I will tell you with great compassion, because I am a brave chimera, I have courage and fear nothing." Her joyful expression was undisguised, and she almost sang the words out loud.

“You do not possess the virtue of courage,” the Fear Chimera said in a slightly hoarse voice.

Chimera shook her finger, indicating that you were wrong, and said:

"I dared to steal a Rubik's Cube, how could I not have the courage?"

"This is clearly reckless, a suicidal madness."

“It’s courage!” Chimera corrected.

On the other side, the rational chimera's eyes behind the lenses lit up, and she muttered to herself:
"Could it be because my definition of courage is different? What others see as suicidal behavior is actually full of courage in my eyes. Courage does not have a standard definition; it depends on each person's perception."

For example, behaviors that seem ordinary to adults, such as walking at night, hunting, or talking to strangers, may seem impressive, cool, or courageous to children.

Therefore, Chimera viewed the recklessness of challenging the Clockwork House as courage.

Regardless of how others view her behavior, she herself thinks she's very cool, handsome, and courageous.

“That makes sense, but it’s not enough. The courage to challenge the House of Clockwork is not enough to overcome long-standing fears.”

The three personalities were thinking simultaneously, stirring up a storm in the Chimera's mind world. In the blink of an eye, the sky darkened, thunder roared, and a torrential rain was about to strike.

Chimera said, "You said before that if I didn't have the Rubik's Cube, I would be nothing, right?"

The fearful personality frowns. What's wrong with that? Without the Rubik's Cube, Chimera can at best be considered a scholar in the future. He might have a flash of inspiration and achieve some minor success, but his potential is very limited.

Moreover, it is more likely that without the Rubik's Cube, Chimera will go completely insane. The inability to obtain the Rubik's Cube will become her obsession, causing her to be obsessed and form a mental knot. Within a few years, she will be exhausted, withered, and eventually die of depression.

Chimera nodded and said, "I admit that my obtaining the Rubik's Cube was full of coincidences, and one percent of luck came my way. However, according to my master, all coincidences in the world are the inevitable result of a series of destinies!"

Even a chance encounter with a stranger at an intersection involves a long and complex series of factors that ultimately lead to a brief, one- or two-second brush past.

Humans are not machines with fixed programs, but rather living randomness.

If she sleeps a few extra seconds in the morning, it's all wrong; if she brushes her teeth a few extra times, it's all wrong; if she eats too fast or too slow, it's all wrong... A huge number of small events pile up together, forming a coincidence, a kind of inevitability.

Chimera continued, "I've loved mechanics since I was a kid, so I've done some research in this area and become a half-baked engineer. I happened to see a Rubik's Cube at an exhibition, and it called out to me. This was the signal that the gears of fate were starting to turn for me!"

"Because of my unconventional personality, Sister Ruiqi saw her own reflection in me, was willing to take care of me, and introduced me to my master. This was the first link in the chain of fate."

"I had the courage to steal the Rubik's Cube from the House of Clockwork, and I just happened to stumble upon the Rubik's Cube going out of control. This is the second link in the chain of fate."

"The Rubik's Cube and Lord Mist have some connection. After the Rubik's Cube went out of control, Lord Mist descended in time to save me. This is the third link in the chain of fate."

"I was well-developed and had a large chest, which my master liked. So he favored me and granted me ownership of the Rubik's Cube through a contract. This was the fourth and final link in the chain of fate."

You see, if any part of the process goes wrong, I won't get the Rubik's Cube.

If my personality doesn't allow Sister Ruiqi to take care of me, if I lack courage, if the Mist God and the Rubik's Cube have no connection, if I have a flat chest and a small butt like Sister Ruiqi... I can't afford to make a single mistake.

But without these "ifs," if she had stumbled upon all these extremely rare coincidences, then it could be said to be an inevitable fate, a twisted Rubik's Cube that fate bestowed upon her.

Therefore, she believes that the future represented by the fear personality, such as "the Chimera who did not obtain the Rubik's Cube" or "the mediocre Chimera," will never happen.

"Now do you understand? I, Chimera, was born destined for an extraordinary future. I will not be an ordinary person. Every step I take is on the gears of fate. Everything is for me."

The fearful personality shook her head slightly. She seemed to understand part of it, but not all of it... She was only certain that the current Chimera was very arrogant and smug.

"Playing the lute to a cow." Chimera raised her axe and chopped at the fearful personality, turning it into a complex and vibrant color.

The chimera, symbolizing reason, approached, glanced at the paint on the ground, silently shook its head, and then allowed the chimera to finish her off as well. The only portal, the only chimera still standing. "I truly am the final victor," the chimera laughed, holding the Rubik's Cube, swaggering towards the portal.

After she left, the whole world vanished.

All the dead chimeras appeared in a magnificent and sacred hall, where there was a long table with chairs on both sides, and the chimeras appeared on the chairs.

A moment later, the beastly chimera, carrying a greatsword, spoke first:

"We have advanced to the high-level Awakener realm. With the help of the Transformation Cube, we can hold our own against a mid-level Legendary realm opponent."

"Just two months ago, we were just ordinary awakened beings."

The rational chimera, wearing glasses, quickly twisted a 9x9x9 golden Rubik's Cube and said:
"Most importantly, our future is indeed as high as crazy people say, and our destiny has changed."

Desire Chimera, with her feet propped up on the table in a languid posture, said:
"Everything changed after I met my master through Ruiqi. Eighteen years of mediocrity, and the changes in two months were worth more than all of the past."

"Having a benefactor makes all the difference."

The chimera, shrouded in robes and symbolizing fear, said:

"We must not be complacent because of this."

"You mean, because you were so proud of yourself, you forgot about the Rubik's Cube?" Desire joked.

"I mean that the Rubik's Cube itself has a will, and if we can't keep up with its demands, we will be the ones who are ultimately abandoned."

The discussion rose and fell, but after a long while it gradually quieted down, and a rational summary was made:
"Fortunately, with the help of our master, we have not developed into a true personality disorder. We are more like an emotion, a possibility, in its nascent stage."

"Only when the Chimera can no longer defeat us will we become truly split personalities. At that time, killing us will be equivalent to killing a part of ourselves, a part of our soul."

The desire-driven personality said with great interest, "Look at me now, aren't I already fighting with my master in bed?"

All the pairs of eyes closed in unison. As personalities coexisting within the Chimera's soul, these possibilities completely shared the Chimera's memories and, naturally, their vision. What the Chimera saw, they could also see.

They are the Chimeras, and the Chimeras are them.

……

"Hahahaha!"

A magnificent and bustling city, composed of a large amount of metal, floats in the sky, accompanied by clouds, with airships coming and going. It is the trading capital of the divine realm, Wulan.

"Take out the money!"

Chimera burst into a merchant guild shop, cleaved open the door with her greatsword, and threatened the trembling shopkeeper to hand over his money.

Having taken all the money, the chimera set the shop on fire, ignoring the cries of those behind him.

She drew her bow and shot an arrow like lightning, instantly detonating an airship and blasting it into countless pieces.

“Hahahaha, that feels so good!”

The Chimera wreaked havoc in the fog, blasting apart countless airships, and the sky was ablaze with shattered sparks.

She overturned the city lord's mansion, poured gasoline on the street and set it ablaze. She beat up anyone she didn't like, threw paint bombs at shop doors, and even kicked passing dogs.

She single-handedly robbed several major merchant guilds in the Mist, piling up gold coins and gems into mountains. Standing atop them, she looked down upon the kneeling masses. Terrifying explosions echoed throughout the Mist, and horrifying cracks spread wildly across the ground.

The leaders of the three major scholar factions knelt on the ground, trembling. The leader of the Clockwork House mustered his courage and was about to speak when Chimera slapped him across the face, sending several bloody teeth flying.

The guardians of the territory were all defeated; they were no match for her.

As the fog rose, the Fog God descended, urging her to stop and turn back before it was too late.

A Rubik's Cube appeared in Chimera's hand, and she said, "Considering you helped me before, I won't make things difficult for you. You can leave now."

The Mist God shook his head slightly, and with a wave of his hand, the sky suddenly changed, lightning flashed, and his power was terrifying. He directly engaged her in battle.

After several hundred rounds, the Chimera roared, its power surging, and said:

"You're not enough!"

Immediately, the power of the Rubik's Cube erupted, golden light spread across the sky, incomparably holy, and the whole world changed and reorganized in her palm. Nothing, whether it was thunder or the sky, could withstand her. Even the Mist God at full power was no match for her, and was suppressed by her palm under the layers of golden cubes.

Immediately, the hermit Elgon of the White Sea appeared to stop her, but despite his best efforts, he was no match for her and was sent flying by the chimera.

Kelton, the hermit of Chongquan, appeared with a solemn expression and said:
"Chimera, the entire divine realm has suffered a great calamity because of you. You are more terrifying than the Demon King. I must stop you."

However, it still didn't work. After dozens of rounds, Kelton was also suppressed, and all the bones in his body were shattered.

The Fourth Hermit Navigator appeared and ambushed her, intending to shoot her dead with an arrow. Chimera noticed in time, coldly snapped the arrow in half, and destroyed her bow.

“I am willing to pledge my allegiance to you.” The fourth hermit submitted.

Finally, the First Hermit Mar appeared and personally intervened to stop the Chimera. Star magic manifested a dazzling starry sky, containing endless mystery.

However, after several hundred rounds, Chimera decisively defeated Mar. Now she has conquered the entire realm of gods, is invincible, and possesses unparalleled power. No one can stop her.

"Next, I must conquer that place." Chimera cast his deep gaze toward the distant world.

……

"Wake up, you're drooling." Ye Lin shook his head slightly. He had created a mental world for Chimera, allowing her to vent and indulge her negative emotions, and she didn't hold back at all.
