Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 1205: Nan Lixiang's Shock
Nan Lixiang secretly made up her mind that no matter how difficult the road ahead was, she would work hard to practice and make herself stronger.

Only here can she find ways to make herself stronger.

The starting point of all this stems from her deep love and sense of responsibility for Shizuka Marikawa.

Shizuka Marikawa, the girl who always has a gentle smile but often makes people worry about her safety, is the softest part of Minami Rika's heart.

She didn't want to see Shizuka Marikawa get hurt because of her powerlessness, and she didn't want her to become a victim of this world.

As the news that Minami Rika had become the new maiden of God at the Tengu Temple spread quickly, those who had been plotting against Marikawa Shizuka began to stop.

They might be afraid of Luther's power, or they might not want to be enemies with the Tengu Temple. In short, Minami Rika's decision invisibly built a solid line of defense for Marikawa Shizuka.

This is also the reason why Minami Rika specifically asked Busujima Saeko to spread the news.

She knew that if she didn't do this, her disappearance would most likely be assumed to be the annihilation of the entire army, and Shizuka Marikawa would fall into a more dangerous situation because she lost her protection.

After all, in this world, the fate of the weak is often in the hands of the strong, and Minami Rika doesn't want Marikawa Shizuka to become the next victim.

By then, no matter how powerful she was, it would be difficult for her to take care of both ends, and it was estimated that Shizuka Marikawa would have been pregnant.

Now, Busujima Saeko is God's maiden after all, so what she said is naturally true.

With the change of Minami Rika's identity, Marikawa Shizuka's life also underwent earth-shaking changes.

The originally peaceful life was broken, replaced by attention and protection from all sides.

The Busujima family, as one of the three major forces in the Tiangong District, personally went to escort Marikawa Shizuka to the Tiangong District, which is the territory of the three major families and also the safest place.

The actions of the Busujima family were not accidental.

After learning the news that Minami Rika had become the Maid of God, the head of the Busujima family, Shinichiro Busujima, immediately realized that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

For the Busujima family, establishing a good relationship with a maid of God would be an invaluable asset.

So he personally gave the order to send the elites of the family to safely send Shizuka Marikawa to Tiangong District with the highest courtesy.

The Busujima family, Hiratsuka family, and Kasumigaoka family in Amamiya district are now known as the "Three Great Families".

Even the top leaders of various countries have to look at their faces here and dare not provoke them easily.

With the idea of ​​making a good relationship, it is just a piece of cake anyway, and I can get the favor of a maid of God, so why not do it?
"Ms. Shizuka, please rest assured that from now on, you will be the most distinguished guest of our Busujima family."

Shinichiro Busujima personally greeted Shizuka Marikawa at the gate of Tengu District, his tone full of respect and sincerity.

"Ah, thank you!"

The innocent Shizuka Marikawa didn't know what was going on.

This move of Minami Rika not only effectively deterred potential enemies, but also initially consolidated her position in the Tiangong Temple.

As a maid of God, she must not only be loyal to Luther, but also demonstrate her own value.

And the cultivation of spiritual power is the key way for her to improve herself.

"You can awaken your spiritual power without fighting monsters and demons?"

Nan Lixiang was stunned when she heard this, as if she was trying hard to understand this information that overturned her long-standing cognition. This sentence was like a stone thrown into her calm heart, stirring up waves. In this island country shrouded in mysterious power, every awakening of spiritual power is accompanied by countless blood and tears.

If this is the case, then wouldn’t the countless people who sacrificed their lives have died in vain?
In this island country where ancient legends and modern civilization are intertwined, the existence of psychics and demons is no longer a secret.

However, there are only a few people who can master this power.

According to incomplete statistics, the number of psychics in the entire island nation is less than 10,000, a number that seems insignificant compared to the huge population base.

In contrast, although the number of people with demon powers has increased to more than 10,000 through the demon power potion developed by Gu Hai Pharmaceutical, they are also facing severe challenges - fighting a desperate battle with demons and monsters on the Kyoto battlefield where blood and flesh are flying, and every day may be the last day of their life.

"This spiritual power cultivation method is not something that everyone can practice."

When Shizuka Hiratsuka saw Minami Rika's look, she understood what she was thinking, just like she did back then.

Is it worth it to kill a million people in exchange for one psychic?
It's not worth it at all. This method of cultivating spiritual power can obviously give birth to more spiritualists!
It turns out that not everyone can practice this method of cultivating spiritual power.

"Only those with high spiritual power qualifications can awaken their spiritual power through this spiritual power cultivation method. It is impossible for others."

Hiratsuka Shizuka explained.

The so-called advanced spiritual power means having spiritual power that is ten thousand times stronger than that of others.

It can also be called the spirit particle density, which makes their spiritual power more indestructible and indestructible than that of others, and is the strongest spear and shield.

She paused and continued, "You can imagine that the spiritual power of ordinary people is like a thin gas. Although it can be sensed, it is difficult to condense into a shape. However, the spiritual power of people with high spiritual power qualifications is like solid metal, which is extremely hard and can be used as a sharp sword or a solid shield. This gap is not only in quantity, but also in quality."

Upon hearing this, Minami Rika couldn't help but gasp.

She had never imagined that the difference in spiritual power would be so huge.

In her opinion, although there are differences in strength between those with spiritual power and those with demonic power, that is more based on the difference in training time and skills rather than the essential difference.

"So, those who don't have high spiritual power are destined to become victims?"

Minami Rika asked.

She is already a mature adult and knows very well that this is a matter of course and this is the cruel reality.

“That’s the harsh truth.”

Hiratsuka Shizuka nodded and said, there are only four maidens of God in the Heavenly Palace Temple so far, and how many people are there in the entire island country?
How many people are there in the whole world?

How many people can be favored by Luther?
"It's so cruel."

Minami Rika complained.

She also had no power to change anything, and the one who had the power to change it did nothing.

After killing Gatanjea, there were no other actions. Of course, treasure hunting could also be considered one of his actions.

The problem is that so many people have died, but no one has obtained the treasure yet.
