The legend of the Crimson Demon clan started from Suqing.

Chapter 165 Cross-Boundary Stone

"What are you doing here this time? Wait, you're not going to tell me that the organization is calling me again? Sorry, there's something wrong with the team right now, and we can't get away for the time being."

Zun Zun said so.

"No, no." Chris smiled and waved her hand, "But I do have something I want to talk to you about."

She pointed to the red gem.

The culprit that caused Zun Zun to travel through time was this precious jade. Maybe he found some useful information and wanted to tell him.

"How about it, can I have a word with you for a moment?"

"Ok."

Looking at their companions who were addicted to Monopoly, Zun Zun and Chris came to the courtyard of the mansion.

"So what's its origin?"

"Don't be so anxious. I was just thinking that it's a good thing nothing happened to you, otherwise I would be really sad. But I also guessed that you would be safe and sound, Zun Zun, and that note should come in handy."

Chris blinked.

Translation: I am a goddess. When you were sucked into a black hole, you thought you were dead, but when you returned to heaven you found that you were not dead, so you felt relieved.

"Oh, that really came in handy. Thanks for your concern. That was quite an interesting trip."

"Hehe, as long as you are happy."

Chris laughed.

Her laughter is so cheerful that people can't help but feel happy too.

"Then, regarding this red gem, after careful research, I learned that it is actually a sacred artifact called the Crossover Stone. It seems to have been brought by the black-haired man who calls himself a hero."

Translation: This is one of the artifacts chosen by the hero sent by Aqua.

"I see."

"You should know the effect. Originally, it should have the ability to travel back and forth between worlds, but probably because you are not its true owner, you were inexplicably teleported at that time."

Is this thing so dangerous?
So where did the Red Demon clan elder Deng get this divine jade? And doesn't he know the true effect of this jade?
"I said Chris."

"how?"

"Can you take it away?"

"Ok?"

Chris was a little surprised to hear Zun Zun say this, but she heard it again.

"It's fine if you can teleport at will, but if you are teleported for no reason, it would be very troublesome for anyone, right?"

Zun Zun sincerely thinks so.

Being able to travel through the world is great, but not being able to control it is a real bummer. If you get teleported while doing something, you really won't be able to hold back.

"Actually, that's why I came here. It's really great that you agreed to this."

Chris patted her chest.

Her true identity is the goddess Eris. She uses the fake identity of a thief in order to collect artifacts scattered around the world. How could she let go of Zun Zun's cross-border stone that can travel through the world?

The most important thing is that it does not belong to Zun Zun.

Every hero in the other world can only have one plug-in. This is the rule of heaven and she must abide by it.

"Then... I'm going to take it."

"please."

Chris placed both of her hands on the jewel of the tiara and continued to pull it down harder and harder, but it did not come off.

“Eh? This… why can’t I take it off! Hum——!”

“It hurts so much!!!”

Zun Zun screamed in pain.

It really hurts, as if my soul is being pulled, and the tearing feeling gives me a splitting headache.

“This has been integrated.”

Chris took a closer look.

It was discovered that the red gem had been completely integrated with the crown woven from rattan.

"what is this?"

"Inherent Spirit Equipment... I guess you don't quite understand what I mean. To put it simply, it is the embodiment of my soul, and it has some special abilities."

“The embodiment of the soul?”

Chris was confused and didn't understand what Zun Zun meant, but she was more concerned about something else.

"Can I take the tiara too?"

"……cannot."

Zun Zun shook his head.

Chris was at a loss now.

Suddenly, Zun Zun thought of a solution. "Chris, how about asking Aqua to help seal this gem? In this way, you don't have to worry about the artifact being abused, and I don't have to worry about being teleported away inexplicably, right?"

"It's better for you not to do that."

"why?"

"It is true that the artifact will be sealed, but the artifact has already merged with your soul (inherent spiritual equipment), so it will probably be sealed together with the soul. If the soul is sealed..."

"If the soul is sealed...?"

"You'll become an idiot."

Chris's words frightened Zun Zun, his body stiffened and he forced himself to swallow his saliva.

He could accept becoming weaker, but forget about becoming an idiot. Looking at how stupid Aqua was, maybe she had accidentally sealed her soul one time... No, maybe she was really stupid.

"Does that mean there's nothing we can do?"

"That's the case now." "How could it be..."

"Okay, okay, don't be discouraged."

Chris patted the lost Zun Zun's shoulder and comforted him, "I will find a way to separate them. Before that, just be patient."

"It can only be the."

Zun Zun sighed.

Afterwards, Chris talked a lot about what happened after he was forced to travel through time.

Chris and Alice left the underground laboratory through the teleportation array, and then went to Schneider's house again to steal the smuggled artifact. There were some minor incidents in the process, but they barely achieved their goal.

"By the way, where's Alice?"

"Ah, she went back. The day after we stole the artifact, a female guard named Claire took Alice back.

You don’t know, if Alice hadn’t spoken up for me, that female guard would have arrested me as a bad guy!”

“…That’s just the kind of person she is.”

Zun Zun knew that she would not let Her Royal Highness the Princess wander around outside. When she saw Chris, she might think she was a bad person who wanted to seduce Her Royal Highness the Princess.

But after this experience, Alice should be satisfied and probably won't sneak out of the palace again in the short term.

Think of this.

"That's right, boss!"

"Don't call me boss!... What's wrong, assistant brother?"

"When will we start the next bandit group activity? This time I plan to use a more fancy routine.

In short, send a letter to the other party first. The content of the letter must be gorgeous and profound. It is best to hide the time and method of stealing in the letter. After stealing, let the other party suddenly realize and regret it. That expression must be great...!"

"Ah, ah... about this... sorry! I have some things to do recently, so I won't be participating in the activities of the Thieves' Group in the near future! That's it, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first!"

“Boss, boss!?”

Chris seemed not to hear anything. She quickened her pace and fled out of the mansion, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Zun Zun tilted his head.

He knew that Chris was very busy. After all, she had to work part-time as the goddess Eris and clean up the mess left by Aqua, but... was she really that anxious?

Forget it, it's not important.

When I returned to the mansion, I saw four people in complete silence. Their postures were different, but the expressions on their faces all looked like they wanted the world to be destroyed soon.

"…What happened to you guys?"

“I don’t want to play this game anymore.”

Aqua hugged her knees as if rejecting the world, with a little cry in her voice.

"I managed to earn a little money and came to the desert kingdom. I thought I could make a lot of money, but I lost it all in the blink of an eye and was thrown out again."

“Hehe, I’m even more miserable. My best friend married her childhood sweetheart, and it was fine if she only had one baby, but she ended up having ten! She even had to give Eris 100 million as a gift for each baby… Youyou, are you a pig!?”

“It has nothing to do with me. That’s your life (game progress)! And every time I want to confess my feelings to my childhood sweetheart, why do you always use interference tickets to stop me? That’s too much!”

Huihui and Youyou were arguing again.

It’s great that they have such a close relationship, but is there something wrong with their way of being intimate?

“Then Kazuma…”

Zun Zun looked at Sato Kazuma, who was sitting in the corner with his face facing the wall as a wall-facer. He couldn't hide the aura of a loser who was out of touch with the world, and he looked like a dragon slayer.

"What happened to him?"

“Kazuma… wanted to save the female knight in his team, which required 20 billion Eris. However, because the female knight did not ask for help, he remained silent and did not try to save up 20 billion Eris. In the end, he could only attend the wedding of the female knight and the evil lord with tears in his eyes, and wished them a happy marriage and a son soon.”

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

When Aqua finished speaking, Sato Kazuma rubbed his head and shouted again, scaring everyone.

This stimulated look.

"Life is a shitty game!"

He roared out blank quotes.

Zun Zun walked over and patted him on the shoulder: "There's nothing I can do. This is how life is. I can't resist so I can only endure it silently."

"Well……!"

“So Kazuma, why don’t you try to resist?”

"Resist?"

"That's right. Think about it carefully. All we need to do is kill that lord, right? No matter the conditions or compensation, they will all cease to exist, and all your troubles will be solved.

Don't worry, I will help you. There are many ways, beating, stabbing, pouncing, beheading, burning, crushing, strangling, cursing... How about it, isn't it exciting?"

"me……"

Sato Kazuma's eyes kept rolling around.

That was the look of being completely bewitched.

“Don’t do this! Kazuma is going to become a criminal!” Aqua quickly protected him behind her. “Besides, do you think Kazuma has the strength and courage to break into the lord’s house?”

"Hey, Aqua!"

Sato Kazuma seemed to have just woken up from a dream. Sweat gradually appeared on his forehead, as if he had just suffered a serious mental struggle.

"I-I'm a law-abiding citizen and I wouldn't do anything like that!"

"Tsk, what a cowardly man without the guts to steal."

"Well……!"

Zun Zun's contemptuous look left him speechless.
