Shared Talent: Traveling through a hundred worlds simultaneously

On the holographic projection, Hao Ren's figure was clearly displayed. He was walking on a seemingly ordinary street, completely unaware of the "extraordinary" fate that was about to befall him.

Su Chen leaned back comfortably in his chair, pulled out a bucket of popcorn from somewhere, and said to Raven12345 with great interest.

"Come on, Little Crow, don't just stand there, bring a stool and watch with us. The show is about to begin. Remember to take notes, these are important files for future employees."

Raven12345: "..."

Silently and mechanically, she moved a stool over and sat down behind Su Chen. Looking at the unfortunate man on the screen whose life was about to be invaded by werewolves and vampires, and then at the enthusiastic new "boss" beside her, she suddenly felt that perhaps... the forced re-education of the Xiling Empire was not so unacceptable after all.

At least, you don't have to be someone's secretary and live commentator at the same time.

Why does this special individual, which was captured by chance, fit the tone of our Xiling Empire so well?
Could it really be some unreliable guy sent from above?
That's impressive!

Sitting in the boss's chair at the Time and Space Administration Bureau, I watched Hao Ren's tenant recruitment journey through a holographic projection.

Su Chen initially found it quite interesting.

Watching Hao Ren's enthusiasm, tinged with the shrewdness of a petty bourgeois, and seeing Lily, in her werewolf form and possessed by a husky, cheerfully volunteering herself, he felt as if he were watching an immersive sitcom.

But as he watched, Su Chen felt that just looking wasn't enough.

“Watching the live stream here is so boring,” Su Chen suddenly jumped up from his chair and stretched his wrists.

"As a leader, you have to go deep into the grassroots and understand the people's sentiments."

Raven12345's heart skipped a beat, and an extremely ominous premonition welled up in her heart.

"Boss... what are you going to do? Our observation is non-contact; according to regulations, we can't directly interfere..."

"Regulation?"

Su Chen turned around, flashing a bright, sunny smile. "Isn't this the rule now? I'll hear your report when I get back. Xiao Ya, take good care of the house."

Before he finished speaking, Su Chen's figure blurred and disappeared from the office.

Raven12345's outstretched hand froze in mid-air, only able to let out a silent cry at the empty boss's chair.

'That's my observation target! My prospective staff! My KPIs! Don't you dare mess with me!' However, her protests were destined to go unheard.

On Earth, on that slightly old street, Hao Ren was overjoyed to have found two tenants all at once.

One is Lily, a beautiful young woman who appears sunny and cheerful and claims to be a writer; the other is Su Chen, a young man she just met by chance, who has a unique temperament, is handsome, and says he has no objection to the rent.

"Oh, Mr. Su, Miss Lily, it's wonderful that you both like my house!" Hao Ren rubbed his hands together, unable to stop smiling. "Although the location is a bit out of the way, the environment is quiet and the space is quite large..."

"It's okay, it's okay. It's good to be quiet, it's a good time to find inspiration!" Lily bounced around, full of energy.

"Yeah, I think it's quite interesting." Su Chen nodded, his face showing just the right amount of curiosity, as if he were just an ordinary tenant looking for a place to live.

He decided to take Lily in!

He still really liked the big dog in this account of unusual creatures.

This time, I saw it in person and I really thought it was lively and youthful. Although it was a bit silly, it was unique for some reason. The more unique it was, the more interested I became.

I think this personality is quite interesting to raise, and how should I put it, this kind of personality is rather rare, how can I not give it a try, since I've already transmigrated anyway.

It's a waste, since the protagonist isn't going to win over the other party anyway. It's just that Hao Ren was surprised by his conversation with Lily.

He probably thought this girl was a bit strange. Why would such a handsome and wealthy guy like her? He really didn't understand anything about young people's lives.

There's no need for that, Lily is much more normal than Aqua.

Isn't it normal for someone from another world to do this, since even Aqua managed to take her down?

Okay, you don't know Aqua, but that's okay.

Hao Ren was secretly delighted, feeling that today was definitely his lucky day.

With this kind of luck, you could win the lottery jackpot!

He enthusiastically led the two toward his home, his steps light and quick.

However, as they drew closer to home, the air seemed to inexplicably pick up a chill. Hao Ren instinctively shrank his neck, wondering to himself, "Why is it suddenly windy?"

At this moment, a sudden change occurred!
A dark shadow darted past, accompanied by a teeth-grinding flapping sound of wings. Immediately afterwards, more bats appeared from nowhere, gathering and circling above his yard wall, forming an ominous vortex.

A chilly wind blew, and the temperature plummeted.

"Holy crap?! What's going on?!" Hao Ren jumped back in fright, but before he could figure out what was happening, an even more terrifying scene unfolded.

Lily, who had been smiling all along, suddenly let out a low growl that sounded inhuman, and her body rapidly expanded amidst a dazzling series of twists and cracking bones!

Her smooth, long hair transformed into gleaming silver fur, her delicate face stretched into a ferocious wolf's snout, and her petite body instantly grew taller, becoming a muscular, claw-wielding... werewolf?!

"Awooo—!" The werewolf Lily howled to the sky, then... excitedly scratched the ground, her eyes shining as she stared at the group of bats, her tail probably wagging like a propeller.

Hao Ren: "!!!"

He felt as if his brain's CPU had instantly burned out.

Bats? Werewolves? Am I filming a movie?!

What about my daily routine?!

What happened to my ordinary, uneventful daily life, where at most I might have trouble collecting rent?!

His legs went weak, and he almost collapsed to the ground. His worldview was collapsing and rebuilding at a speed of 800 meters per second.

In the midst of extreme chaos and terror, Hao Ren's survival instinct made him subconsciously look at the only "normal person" on the scene—Su Chen.

Then he saw Su Chen with his hands in his pockets, leisurely watching the supernatural scene of "bats dancing wildly and werewolves howling" before him. His face showed no fear at all, but rather... a somewhat interested and commentary-like expression.

It's like watching monkeys fight at the zoo.

"Brother Su... Brother Su?!" Hao Ren's voice trembled. "You... you're not afraid?!"

This guy is incredibly brave! Or is he just scared out of his wits?

Upon hearing this, Su Chen turned around and said in a matter-of-fact tone, even with a hint of "your question is so strange."

"Afraid? Why should we be afraid? They're all weak, please." Hao Ren: "..."

He's weak? Who's weak? That werewolf who can smash a concrete block with a single slap? Or that unknown being who can summon swarms of bats and looks intimidating?

You call that weak?!

Hao Ren felt completely overwhelmed; a sense of absurdity, even stronger than witnessing a werewolf's transformation, struck him.

He pointed to Lily, who was still baring her teeth at the bats but looked more like she was laughing, and then to the swarm of bats gathering in the air, his voice lingering.

"Weak?! You call this weak?! This is a battle of gods, bro! What happened to my usual style?! And you... who exactly are you?!"

He stared intently at Su Chen. At this moment, he wouldn't be surprised if Su Chen pulled out a staff or transformed into a giant of light in the next second.

Su Chen couldn't help but laugh when he saw Hao Ren's expression of existential doubt. He patted Hao Ren on the shoulder, almost knocking the weak-kneed Hao Ren to the ground, his tone relaxed.

"Me? I'm just a new tenant who's very interested in your house. As for them..."

He glanced at the werewolf Lily and the soon-to-appear vampire Vivian, and shrugged.

"It really is quite weak, I'm not lying to you."

Hao Ren stared wide-eyed at Su Chen's relaxed and carefree demeanor.

Feeling his heart pounding in his throat, he finally realized that neither of the two tenants he had hired today were truly "ordinary" people!

His future as the landlord is destined to be turbulent and chaotic!
And the Su Chen in front of us is definitely a heavyweight among heavyweights!
Su Chen listened to the chaotic and varied thoughts. He discovered that it was quite interesting not to listen to gossip. Listening to other people's inner thoughts made him realize how interesting they were, though sometimes a little annoying.

Take Raven for example, every time he listens to the inner voice, it sounds like 800 sparrows chattering.

This world is my daily life; enjoying life is the right path. Leveling up by defeating monsters is not what I should be doing.

Furthermore, as a max-level player, do I need to do that kind of thing? I just need to intervene occasionally and cover for them.

Honestly, with such a relaxed and pleasant worldview, almost comical, he felt that retiring here was the perfect thing for him.

In the tense moment when the werewolf Lily was baring her teeth, she looked around, her eyes lit up, and with lightning speed, she grabbed a brick from the corner of the wall—her movements were so skillful they were almost heartbreaking—and hurled it at the densest swarm of bats in the air!

"Take this brick of justice!"

The brick whistled through the air in a blind, lucky arc, and actually hit a bat that couldn't dodge in time.

The bat made a "squeak" sound and spun as it fell downwards.

However, before it could land, a figure moved faster than the limits of retinal detection. As if it were just a flicker of light and shadow, Su Chen appeared in mid-air, casually reaching out to catch the bat in his arms.

Almost the instant he made contact, a black light flashed on the bat's body, and its form changed drastically. Its feathers contracted, and its limbs stretched. In the blink of an eye, a silver-haired woman, dressed in an ancient but obviously worn black dress, with a pale face but extremely delicate features, lay dizzily in Su Chen's arms.

It was Vivian, a destitute vampire.

Wow, so this is the poor vampire. He's actually not bad looking.

He's been getting used to his powers while also relearning the relevant storylines.

Vivian opened her eyes, and the first thing she saw was a handsome face with a hint of curiosity and a playful smile, as well as eyes that seemed to pierce through the void.

What she sensed was not the presence of humans, but a deeper, more vast, and unfathomable sense of existence, like the universe itself.

Shock and a primal fear gripped her, making her momentarily forget to struggle.

“You… what are you…” Vivian’s voice was filled with disbelief.

Su Chen simply smiled slightly, then gently carried her back to the ground, his movements as elegant as if he were merely catching a falling leaf.

He looked at the still somewhat dazed vampire girl in his arms and asked gently, "Beautiful lady, it seems you need some help?"

This overly casual, even gentlemanly, greeting seemed particularly eerie against the backdrop of this supernatural brawl.

Vivian was completely bewildered and was brought back to Hao Ren and Lily by Su Chen without her even realizing it.

"Hey! What are you doing hugging that vampire?!"

Although Lily had transformed back into human form, she still retained her werewolf straightforwardness, baring her teeth at Su Chen, "Put her down! Vampires are all bad!"

Seeing that another battle between werewolves and vampires was about to break out, Hao Ren had given up thinking and prepared to crouch down and defend himself.

Su Chen interjected at just the right moment, his curious gaze sweeping between Lily and Vivian, who had just regained her footing and was still somewhat shaken.

"Excuse me, you two. While vampires and werewolves are indeed sworn enemies in the movies, and fighting is the standard procedure... there has to be a specific reason, right? Like, she stole your bone? Or you stole her... um, tomato juice?"

He tried to find some reasons that fit his "persona".

Upon hearing this, even Hao Ren, who was questioning his life, couldn't help but prick up his ears. "Yeah, why did they fight?"
Upon hearing this, Lily put her hands on her hips and said confidently.

"Reason? What reason do I need? I've never seen a vampire, but the movies all say that vampires are evil, blood-sucking villains! They must be eliminated on sight! That's justice!"

Hao Ren: "..."

Vivian: "..."

Su Chen is watching the drama unfold.

Hao Ren's lips twitched, inwardly cursing: 'Where did this werewolf learn all this knowledge from, some rural video arcade?!'

Looking at Lily's "I'm so righteous" expression, he felt a sense of powerlessness.

Vivian was speechless. In all her long life, this was the first time she had ever encountered this kind of... werewolf.

She took a deep breath, trying to maintain her dignity as an old aristocrat, even though she was dirtier than she was.

"My prejudice against werewolves mostly stems from legends and certain...unpleasant experiences. But someone like you, judging others as good or evil based solely on movies...I've never seen anyone like you before."

Her tone was a mix of helplessness and amusement.

After Su Chen's interruption and Lily's overly naive and clueless reasoning for fighting, the tense atmosphere on the scene inexplicably dissipated by more than half.

The misunderstanding... although not completely cleared up, at least the reason for the fight seemed ridiculous.

Moreover, there's an unfathomable being involved; a fight simply can't break out here. (End of Chapter)
