A Dimensional Journey Begins with the Dragon Clan

Chapter 1338

"Deprivation of rituals... This rule also applies to magicians who join the game after it starts, right?"

Before coming here, Ieiri Shoko talked to them about the situation of the Death and Migration.

"Since it is a profession, I think the 'deprivation' is definitely not achieved through 'inaction transformation'. It is not 'prohibition of use', but direct 'deprivation', so it should not be 'restraint' either. Based on this inference, it should be that some forceful manipulation of the brain is used to exert its effect."

"From a rule perspective, I also believe that being deprived of the technique means death. Otherwise, everyone would have chosen to refuse to participate."

  ···········

"It's exactly as Miss Glass analyzed."

Zenin Maki said.

"On the contrary, a sorcerer like me who doesn't have any skills to rely on won't take any risks. I wonder what will happen to the panda? Does that guy have a brain?"

"The third rule is that non-players will transform into players the moment they invade the barrier, and will be deemed to have sworn to participate in the Death Return Tour."

"Regarding this rule, what should ordinary people who have been in the barrier from the beginning do?" Xuan Hao asked thoughtfully.

"They should get a chance to leave the barrier." Tianyuan replied.

"Really? That's quite kind." Xuan Hao couldn't help but complain.

Tian Yuan said: "There is no clause in the basic rules that involves entering and leaving the barrier. The purpose should be to give players a clear purpose of 'leaving the barrier' from the very beginning, so as to make the return journey more active. In order to trap the players, an important prerequisite is that the players must 'voluntarily enter the barrier'."

Xuan Hao was a little confused when he heard this: "Isn't this the supplementary condition of the barrier that Mr. Wild Boar mentioned?"

"4. Players gain game points by ending the lives of other players. 5. Game points refer to the value set by the game manager for each player's life. In principle, magicians get 5 points, and non-magicians get 1 point."

"It's all about basic rules and principles. It's a mess."

"..."

"Fushiguro?"

"nothing."

"Master Tianyuan, who are you referring to as the game manager?"

"The shikigami that possesses each player." Tianyuan replied, "Golden Bug."

"But strictly speaking, the gold bug is not a 'manager' but a 'window'."

"?" Xuan Hao was extremely confused when he heard this.

"You can think of the Administrator as the Death Migration Program itself."

"I see."

After hearing this, Xuanhao understood.

"6. Players can spend 100 game points in addition to their own points to gain the right to negotiate with the game administrators and add a rule for returning to the game after death."

"'Add'?" Jiujiu Yuki pondered, "Can't we eliminate the existing rules?"

"Hmm..." Xuan Hao was also confused about this.

"Maybe it can be denied in a tactful way." Fushiguro Megumi guessed.

"7. Game managers must agree to the addition of rules unless the rule will seriously affect the long-term operation of the game."

"Is this also feasible?" Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiang did not think that this method was feasible.

"That is to say, the basis for judgment is determined by the other party."

"No. We can assume that they will make a fair judgment to a certain extent." Tian Yuan denied, "They have imposed such strict rules on the players. From the perspective of spells, it is impossible for the situation to be biased in favor of the Silkworm side."

"8. If the player's points do not change within days after re-entering or obtaining points, the player's skills will be revoked."

"Again...do we have to kill someone?" Xuan Hao asked.

"Not necessarily... I have a few ideas." Megumi Fushiguro pondered.

"Anyway, the information has been sorted out together." Zenin Maki on the side concluded, "Next, let's talk about our respective divisions of labor."

"Miss Yuki and Choso, stay here to protect Lord Tengen. I will go back to the Zenin family first to retrieve the cursed tools. Not long after Satoru was sealed, the cursed tools in the high-level secret library were taken back to the Kamo family and the Zenin family respectively, so it is empty. But thanks to Kei who became the head of the Zenin family..."

"What!?" Xuan Hao was slightly stunned when he heard this.

"I'll explain it to you later." Fushiguro Megumi was a little embarrassed.

"The Zenin family's Jiku is now available for you to take... but before that... Lord Tengen." As he said this, Zenin Maki looked at Tengen.

"?"

Everyone looked at Tianyuan in confusion.

"I see."

Tianyuan nodded slightly.

"You mean the HDB tanning workshop, right?"

"Thank you."

Zenin Maki nodded slightly in thanks.

Then she turned to look at Yuta Otsutsuki who was standing beside her.

"What about you, Yuta?"

"After I'm done with my work, I'll go find the pandas and help you pacify the return." Yuta Otsutsukoshi replied, "I plan to enter the barrier this morning to join the return."

"I want to gather as much information as possible before Ms. Tsumiki and Fushiguro join the return trip. To prevent a situation where our own people might have to kill each other."

"At the same time, in case something happens to Ms. Tsumiki, I will avoid the nearby barriers. The barriers will probably block the signal, so we may not be able to contact you for a while."

"what……"

"what……"

As if they thought of something, Xuanhao and Yuta Okkotsu were stunned at the same time.

"If I am replaced by Sukuna again next time, please kill me without hesitation."

Otsutsuki thought that Fushiguro would be safer if he stayed with Xuanhao. However, considering the combat power, Otsutsuki would be more efficient if he acted alone. This made Otsutsuki Yuta hesitate.

"What are you still worried about at this time? Don't worry." Fushiguro Megumi said calmly, "If that time really comes, it will be the same if I die and you are killed by him."

"No...isn't this to avoid that kind of situation?" Xuan Hao was speechless.

"Senior," Fushiguro Megumi completely ignored his meaning and said to Zenin Maki who was standing beside her.

"Well, you guys go find Kinji according to the plan." Zenin Maki nodded slightly.

"Jinci?" Xuanhao felt a little confused when he heard this unfamiliar name.

"Kinji Hyō. A third-year student who is on suspension from school." Otsutsukota explained.

"Anyway, we are extremely short of manpower right now, so you must get him out no matter what." Zenin Maki warned solemnly.

"Is that person very strong?" Xuan Hao asked

"Although his mentality is prone to breakdown," said Yuta Otsutsukoshi, "when he's in good shape, he's better than me."

"That's not the case." Zenin Maki shook his head speechlessly.

Then, everyone started to take action.

"Swelling phase!!"

Just as he was leaving, Xuanhao seemed to remember something and said to Zhangxiang.

"Thank you, you're a big help in signaling."

"Don't die."

Zhang Xiang also responded.

"Are you crying?"

Looking at the happy expression of Zhuang Xiang covering his face, Jiujiu Yuki asked.

"Go aside."

Zhang Xiang gestured for her to cool down.

  ···········

A comedy theater.

Gao Yu on the stage was trying his best to perform, but no one in the audience wanted to laugh and some were even yawning.

This made him feel very embarrassed, so he could only finish the performance, thank everyone and leave the stage.

"How long are you going to keep telling jokes that aren't funny at all!?"

Sure enough, he was scolded by his boss as soon as he got off the stage.

"Please stop talking! Even we backstage are frustrated by you!!"

"……Feel sorry."

Gao Yu can only express his deep apologies for this.

"How old are you this year?"

"35 is old."

"In that case, I suggest you not to do this job. In this industry, there are indeed many people who are late bloomers. They suddenly become popular due to some coincidence. But it's not that the crosstalk they say has suddenly become interesting, but it was already interesting but was buried. Your situation is different, right? Tokyo has become like that, I won't say any more unpleasant words. I suggest you find another job, a job that suits you."

With that, the boss slammed the door and left.

"..."

Seeing this, a colleague nearby spoke to comfort him.

"I don't really hate your jokes."

"Brother Jian..."

Gao Yu looked at his colleague and felt somewhat moved.

"But he and you are both wrong." He said at the same time, "Even if the crosstalk is not very good, the guy who deserves to be famous will still be famous."

"Are you talking about those people who are only popular for a short while?" Gao Yu asked.

"No. There are two types of people who can remain popular." He explained calmly, "One is the person who can always make crosstalk particularly interesting, and the other is the person who always mistakenly believes that he is particularly interesting. Which type are you?"

"Although it's said to be 50/50, but in fact it should be 70/30, right?"

Gao Yu murmured in response.

His full name is Takahashi Fumihiko, and he is a player of the game Death Return.

  ·············

"September moth."

In the confinement room of the technical college, Ye Mo Zheng Dao was tied up and locked up inside.

The old man outside asked in confusion.

"What on earth is that thing? Other manipulation techniques can also make artificial cursed skeletons move independently, but they can only consume the cursed power given by the magician as power. But that thing can replenish its own cursed power."

"The higher-ups are now planning to designate you as a special-grade magician and formally order your indefinite detention."

"Because if you created that thing with purpose, then it would be easy for you to create an army. Answer me, Nightmoth."

"You really don't know how that thing is made?"

"……Yes."

Ye Moth knew that the 'thing' the other party was talking about was actually the special cursed corpse of the panda.

  ···········

"Masamune. Everyone is worried about you because you look listless."

  Before he was locked up, his cursed corpse had comforted him.

"Is it?"

"So I told them that since they were in low spirits, they should encourage them and cheer them up."

"That's it..."

“I’m a genius, right?”

Ye Moth did not respond, but just touched Zhu Hai's head.

"ah--"

The cursed corpse made a happy sound.

These cursed corpses are like his children.

"Xiao Wu, I'm sorry, I have to leave for a while and won't be back for the time being. Please tell everyone for me."

"Are you going on a business trip again?" Zhu Hai asked doubtfully.

"Well, I'll be gone for a very long time this time." Ye Moth replied in a deep voice, "Don't worry, this forest is guarded by Lord Tianyuan, and your mother will come to see you again."

As he spoke, Night Moth looked towards the forest in front of him.

"So even if I'm gone, it'll be fine."

After explaining everything, Noctua left this secret place.

"Nightmoth, everyone will miss you when you're gone."

It can be seen that these cursed skeletons of his are fundamentally different from ordinary cursed skeletons.

That is, everyone has a soul.

  ···········

"…Is it really okay, Kusakabe?"

Looking at Kusakabe who had untied himself, Panda asked with some confusion.

"Don't ever tell me that I saved you."

Kusakabe warned with cold sweat on his forehead.

"They captured you to use you as bait to lure out Mr. Nightmoth. That man... did me a favor. Okay, get going!"

  ···········

"Are you sure you want to do this?"

"This guy is not your nephew, but a cursed corpse that has information about your nephew."

"How can I face my future life if I am still immersed in the grief of my loved ones' death? But if my sister loses Xiaowu's support, she will not be able to survive."

It turns out that the cursed corpse named Xiaowu was created using the information of Kusakabe's sister's son, who is also Kusakabe's nephew.

  ···········

"Zhengdao, that's my mother, right?" Xiao Wu asked the woman in front of him.

"Yes, you are amazing. You can see that."

"Hehehe, the first time I saw her I was wondering if it was her. Am I a genius?"

After hearing these words, Kusakabe's sister, who had lost the motivation to live, regained her energy.

  ···········

"I'm sorry, Kusakabe."

"I understand. We can't let the existence of a completely independent Cursed Corpse be known to the public. We can't let it live with my sister."

"sorry."

"Why are you apologizing to me? I should be the one thanking you. Really. Thank you very much."

That's why Kusakabe took the risk to save the panda.

  ···········

night.

Yeyao Zhengdao was ready to be caught and appeared in front of the senior officers.

"You don't even have a cursed corpse with you, where are you going, Principal Nightmoth?"

"To see my son."

Nightmoth responded calmly as he took off his coat.

Although he came from the Trap, he didn't expect to be able to take these guys back easily.

"? Let me teach you the only way to avoid death penalty now, okay?" the man said gloomily. "It is to make public the method of making a completely self-sustaining artificial cursed corpse immediately."

"Now that Wuyi is not around, you guys are getting tough?" Ye Mo Zhengdao said sarcastically.

"That's natural."

The person on the other side was shameless, "We have a battle-hardened magician on our side."

"Leyan Temple...Principal."

Ye Mo Zheng Dao saw the old man who also arrived and spoke in a gloomy tone.

That's how he was caught.
