Chapter 2644 The Impending Disaster

"That's right, it's a high-explosive bomb."

Seeing the Just Saint Son instantly double his battle aura intensity and his expression immediately turn serious, Juechen Tianping revealed a mischievous smile. He raised his hand and ordered the three skeleton soldiers to stop their slashing, shooting, and self-destructing. He said in a light tone, "After all, skeleton soldiers are just expendable resources, so stuffing them with a bunch of bombs and letting them rush over and explode is the correct way to use them."

"That's...the correct way to use it..."

Avery twitched his lips, looking with lingering fear at the high-explosive skeleton soldier standing blankly in front of him, its chest cavity and bone gaps stuffed with explosives, its body exuding a subtle sulfurous smell. He turned to Mo Tan and said seriously, "This thing does seem pretty fierce."

"Ah."

Mo Tan glanced at the high-explosive skeleton, which, though not particularly frightening, was still quite terrifying. While calmly bringing his guardian knight to his side, he said seriously, "I think so too, but the number that can be used as combat power is still too small. Five hundred is really not enough."

"no way."

Juechen Tianping shrugged and spread his hands, saying, "There's no problem with the number of skeleton soldiers. After all, bone growths in the ground can keep multiplying, and the larger the base number, the faster the multiplication rate. But the number of exoskeletons specially made for skeleton soldiers is really limited, and there's simply no way to arm all the skeletons."

Mo Tan nodded slightly and pondered, "That is indeed a problem."

"Speaking of which, Libra."

Just then, Elgar, who had been deep in thought since the beginning, suddenly spoke up and asked the Scales of Dust, "Do your exoskeletons require any special craftsmanship that you have to do yourself?"

Juechen Tianping was immediately stunned, then suddenly realized what he meant and exclaimed, "You wouldn't be thinking of..."

“Although we people here don’t understand any necromancy, if the ‘exoskeletons’ you make don’t require any special techniques, then things might be easier.”

Elgar grinned and said cheerfully, "Grey dwarves are natural blacksmiths. Not to mention excellent craftsmen like Dagran who are skilled enough to carve patterns on iron ingots, even those teenagers should be able to help a lot."

"Tsk, don't tell me."

Juechen Tianping stroked his chin, rapidly considering the feasibility of the plan, and muttered under his breath, "You know what, right!"

When Mo Tan saw that things were going well, his expression improved considerably. He then subconsciously thought to himself that it would be great if Jenny were here. After all, if you wanted to verify the feasibility of something, the astrologer girl who studied under Danmas Remedop would be the perfect candidate.

Then--

"Are you looking for me?"

As that signature, magnetic, smoky voice rang out, Jenny Bellier, the chief astrologer of Dunbua City and the occult consultant of Motan, appeared silently and subtly behind him and asked the question in a very calm manner.

It's worth mentioning that the so-called 'silent' and 'unnoticed' were only true to Mo Tan herself. In fact, in the eyes of Elgar, Philip, Yi Zou, Avery, and even Juechen Tianping, Jenny's appearance was not abrupt at all. After all, she didn't have any ability to hide her presence; at most, she could just make her footsteps a little lighter.

In other words, the strength of the character 'Black Van' is really quite pathetic. Although he can barely be considered a high-level character, his perception ability is not even as good as the mid-level characters 'Tanmo' and 'Mo'. Admittedly, as a priest, he does not have an advantage in sensing auras, but... that is not an excuse for not even noticing Jenny strolling over.

However, there was no way to improve his character's strength. Although Mo Tan himself wanted to increase his character's strength and knew that Luca Tefiro's methods, the 'Path of Discipline,' were extremely promising, as one of the strongest men in the history of the Dawn Cult, the Holy Alliance, and even the [Innocent Realm], he simply didn't have time to become stronger.

Yes, it's not that I can't become stronger, or that I'm not capable of becoming stronger, but rather that I don't have time to become stronger.

As perhaps the most unique player in the world, Mo Tan, who only has about a quarter of the game time of ordinary players, has a natural disadvantage in terms of improving strength, no matter how good he is at time management. Even if 'Mo' and 'Tan Mo', who are always on the road of adventure or causing trouble at will, have the opportunity to train themselves, a certain priest who is somewhat helpless in most cases will find it difficult to keep up with the pace.

Speaking of potential, regardless of whether it's 'Black Fan' or Mo Tan under the absolutely neutral personality, just his 'quest log', which is of the highest quality in the entire game, is enough to make all the studios, clubs, ordinary players, casual players, hardcore players, and online dating players green with envy.

It's no exaggeration to say that if the high-quality tasks in his task list were given to Xinglong or Jixiaodao, it's hard to say whether Cordoba could maintain his 'second-in-command' status.

However, it’s no use!

While it's not fair to say they're not trying, at least for now, 'Black Van' will continue to squander their potential for a long time, remaining at a rather weak level.

Of course, if we look at it from another angle, we will also find that the character 'Black Van' is terrifyingly strong, and he is an absurdly famous figure in both the player and NPC circles.

Is the [Woof Woof Adventurer Squad] really that strong, even now that they seem to be able to get by anywhere?

Is the "Clown Card," which is making great strides in the City of Freedom and is gradually getting on track, really that strong?

To be honest, he is definitely strong, but compared to 'Black Vanish', at least at this stage, those two are not even qualified to sit at the table.

However, the reason why 'Black Brahma' can barely gain entry into the entire [Innocent Realm] at this moment is precisely because he paid a price, including his personal strength.

Now that the logical loop is complete, let's get back to the main topic.

"Good guy!"

As Jenny appeared silently like a beautiful female ghost, Mo Tan was immediately stunned and said in shock, "Why do you walk so quietly?"

"Because my weight doesn't allow me to make a rumbling sound when I walk."

Under Yi Zou's slightly furrowed brows, Jenny exhaled a smoke ring onto Mo Tan's face and said leisurely, "Oh right, Elgar's idea is fine. Call Dagran over later to learn a little, and the exoskeleton parts will be basically done. In the end, we can hand it over to Tianping for assembly."

Upon hearing this, Mo Tan immediately breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "I'm relieved to hear you say that."

"That's all I can tell you, these are the less important things."

Jenny glanced at Mo Tan and said indifferently, "The future is constantly changing, and it's incredibly difficult to glean anything useful or worth talking about from it."

Mo Tan nodded and gave Jenny an apologetic smile: "I'm sorry, thank you for your hard work."

"It's nothing. I'm living and eating at your place now, and you've even given me the title of chief astrologer. It would be a bit unreasonable if I didn't do something in return."

Jenny replied noncommittally, then said in a slightly more serious tone, "However, I still want to emphasize, Black Van, although many people think it would be convenient to have an astrologer by your side, and in fact my presence would indeed make you feel very convenient, you must remember not to become too attached to me."

Upon hearing this, the guardian knight behind Mo Tan immediately shook his head and said, "Senior, you wouldn't do that."

"Is it possible, Jellette?"

Jenny sighed, took a sullen puff of her cigarette, and said helplessly, "The so-called 'indulgence' refers to my divination, not my good looks?"

Yi Zou: "...Ooh!"

"Don't worry, I won't be obsessed with either divination or beauty." Mo Tan smiled, then smiled at Jenny and said, "But on another note, if you find that I've accidentally lost my way, please remember to lend me a hand."

Jenny raised an eyebrow: "Are you referring to my divination, or my good looks?"

Mo Tan: "..."

"Just kidding, my dear Lord Black Vane, and you, Jellette, toned down your killing intent a bit."

Jenny waved her hand, took another puff of her cigarette, and explained calmly, "I'm just an astrology apprentice with no real talent. Unlike my mentor, senior Kirabi, and the geniuses of the Archizorti family, I can't clearly grasp every line and pulse of fate."

Mo Tan nodded in deep understanding and echoed, "Yes, those three really cannot be judged by ordinary standards."

"I feel like you know a great astrologer quite well."

Jenny glanced at Mo Tan but didn't delve into it. She continued, "If those three are like fish swimming in the river of fate, able to frequently leap out of the water to spy on every tributary and every reef ahead, then I am at best a fish with better eyesight. Although I can see some vague distant views, I cannot leap out of the water."

Mo Tan shook his head and said with heartfelt admiration, "It's already very good. You don't know how reassuring a prophet who doesn't like to speak in riddles is."

"This may not be a good habit. You should know that speaking in riddles can ensure the randomness of the future, and at the same time, it will prevent you from giving up independent thinking."

Jenny stubbed out her cigarette under Yi Zou's disapproving gaze, then said in a defiant tone, "Forget it, you're a smart person, I don't need to explain so much."

"Thank you."

Mo Tan politely thanked her, and then after a subtle silence, hesitantly asked, "So Jenny, what do you think of my arrangements... uh."

Seeing Mo Tan abruptly stop talking, Jenny smiled with satisfaction and asked, "You've figured it out?"

"This feels awful."

Mo Tan gave a wry smile, then took a deep breath and gently patted his cheeks: "Alright, now that the Holy Church Alliance's investigation team has arrived in Gospel Mountain City, we should hurry up too."

"Oh, right."

Just then, Jenny suddenly called out to Mo Tan, who was about to leave the 'vegetable garden' of the Dust-Free Balance and return to Skolke Stronghold to continue handling various matters, a malicious smile playing on her lips: "Although I have nothing to say about your plans and arrangements, but..."

"but what?"

Mo Tan dared not relax and immediately turned to look at her astrologer, waiting for him to continue.

"However, it is foreseeable that you will likely have many interactions with that 'witch' in Gospel Mountain City in the future, whether necessary or unnecessary."

Jenny blinked and chuckled, "Of course, that 'witch' is never your only trouble. Even setting aside the fact that she'll create a massive reverse harem illusion for you and others after accidentally eating fungi, you'll still get caught up in all sorts of delightful interactions, and the outcome of these interactions..."

Completely unprepared to hear this, Mo Tan pursed her lips, swallowed hard, and asked in a dry voice, "What is it?"

"It's catastrophic."

Jenny gave a wicked smile and repeated, emphasizing her words, "Disastrous!"

【…】

In an instant, Mo Tan's previously rosy complexion turned pale, clearly indicating that she had been frightened.

"Jenny."

Yi Zou gave Jenny a light glare and said seriously, "Stop with those baseless claims."

“It’s not up to astrologers to say things that are based on solid evidence, Jellette, that’s common sense.”

Jenny glanced at Yizou and said softly, "By the way, you might also become part of the Black Brahma disaster. After all, no matter how unaware you are, the relationship between the guardian knight and the protected is already a sin."

Yi Zou: "...?"

Sanctuary, City of Light, Battle Nun's Academy
Where is Wang Yu?

She would come over every few days. Although she used the alias 'Shamar' when she belonged to the Battle Sisters' Academy, she was always the Dawn Goddess's chosen one and the leader of the Battle Sisters' Academy. Princess Xia Lian Bamboo Leaf Saintess rubbed Sister Marina's head and asked while looking around, "Where did that child run off to again?"

“Wang Yu does his homework during worship time.”

Marina pointed to the small chapel in the center of the convent and said with a wry smile, "Although it should be a good thing in theory, I always feel that... this child has been working a little too hard lately."

"Aha, I can probably guess why."

Xia Lian scratched her head, clicked her tongue with a somewhat conflicted expression, and asked again, "So how has she been improving lately?"

"Rapid progress."

Marina smiled with satisfaction, her eyes sparkling as she said, "Wang Yu's comprehension is amazing. Even though she's completely unfamiliar with our divine magic system, as long as Kachina and I explain it to her briefly, she can understand it immediately. Not only that, she doesn't even need to be taught about [Holy Word]; her level is already firmly at the peak of the high-level. I think that if things continue like this, it's only a matter of time before she takes that 'half step,' and it won't be long."

"Tsk tsk, this kid is much better than me, except he's a little weak."

"But mentor..."

"how?"

"Because Wang Yu has never hidden anything from us, I can sense that while she is making rapid progress..."

"The dark divine power within her has also increased, hasn't it?"

"……Um"
