Only I Have the Law: A Fantasy Daily Life

Chapter 160 Brother Bear, I'm going to slide tackle!
The deep darkness of night didn't seem to last long.

Chen Baiyu randomly chose a direction to begin his journey to brighten his vision, but before he had gone far, he felt the sky beginning to lighten.

It wasn't quite bright daylight, but it wasn't quite like dawn either.

However, it was obvious that the night was not as deep and dark as when he first arrived; it had become slightly brighter.

In the Tongas National Forest, the days are longer than the nights.

Chen Baiyu was not surprised by this.

The sky turning white doesn't brighten his vision; he still needs to slowly navigate the map on his own.

Moreover, the difference between night and day has little impact on his progress in terms of visual effects, as he has long since reached the point where he can see at night with just a little light.

and so.

Wearing a simple wooden mask, Chen Baiyu did not stop walking at all.

Instead, they are even more agile than Tarzan, moving nimbly through the mountains and forests using trees as footholds.

If the Thousand Illusions Mask were still usable, he probably wouldn't be able to resist giving himself a wild physique and face resembling Tarzan.

Ideally, it should have a body nearly two meters tall, combined with the smooth lines that come from years of climbing, running, and hunting.

Then, grow a thick head of long, black hair that falls over your shoulders, and place a few small fallen leaves and vines among the ends of your hair.

Yes, that's the taste!

Unfortunately, his Thousand Illusions Mask was disabled during the Rainbow Transformation Ritual for time travel. It was probably because his magic was not precise enough and thus came into contact with the temporal turbulence, which caused him to exhaust two hours of usage time and go into cooldown.

Chen Baiyu was unsure of the specifics of what had happened.

Anyway, based on the stars, he judged that it was past midnight when he arrived here.

If we want to wait until midnight to verify whether the usage time of Thousand Illusion Mask will be refreshed, we'll have to wait until shortly before his return ticket goes on sale.

After all, if we had the Thousand Illusion Mask to use.

He wouldn't use stones as tools; instead, he used his strength and skill to make a wooden mask.

While thinking.

Chen Baiyu kept moving.

As he passed through a dense forest, his keen observation caught a fleeting glimpse of a scene, which made him immediately stop in his tracks.

It's as if the person has no momentum.

It abruptly stopped the high-speed movement.

It wasn't that he could ignore the laws of physics; it was just that the moment he grabbed a tree, he suddenly exerted force in the opposite direction, counteracting the momentum of his forward charge.

Holding the mask, which was secured to her face with a rope made of tree bark and shrub fibers, with one hand, Chen Baiyu made sure the mask wouldn't fall off.

He then jumped straight down from the high place.

He didn't have to worry about his shoes breaking during that leap.

Because he wasn't wearing shoes at all.

Before he set off.

Because the cosplay outfit he bought didn't come with shoes, he didn't put on shoes at all when he teleported in order to meet the system's dress requirements.

At this point, there's no need to worry about the shoes getting damaged.

As for the quality of the cosplay costume, it was unexpectedly good. Despite such vigorous movements and being scratched by branches and leaves, it suffered no damage.

next moment.

He landed suddenly.

The ground exploded, revealing several layers of loose soil and fallen leaves.

Chen Baiyu landed in a superhero pose.

Compared to the pebbles and branches on the ground, his skin was not sharp enough to leave any wounds on his feet.

Take a look around.

He quickly located the thing he had glimpsed while it was moving at high speed through the upper branches of the tree.

It was a suitcase that was mostly buried in the soil next to some tree roots.

Only a small portion has emerged so far.

What might be inside a suitcase in this remote place?

It shouldn't be RMB... it's probably just Renminbi, right?

If we consider the situation in a free country, it would probably be money in democracy... or people in democracy?
Chen Baiyu approached slowly with a hint of curiosity.

The sense of smell is fully utilized in this process, absorbing all the surrounding scents into the brain and continuously analyzing them with astonishing wisdom.

The first smell is of damp, humus-like soil.

This smell is clearly not something that could be associated with a man-made object like a suitcase.

He almost immediately categorized it in his mind as a smell that didn't need his attention.

Then he smelled a complex mix of scents: moss, decaying wood, insects, and even animal droppings in the distance.

These were clearly not the smells one would expect from a suitcase, and Chen Baiyu quickly skimmed over them like she was filtering through files on a computer.

After classifying and identifying them, ignore them all.

He tried to deliberately focus his sense of smell.

Try to focus all your attention more on the suitcase in front of you.

This wasn't complicated for his already somewhat unscientific sense of smell.

next moment.

A faint smell of plastic and leather wafted through the air.

That was clearly the smell of the suitcase exterior.

But apart from that, there wasn't even the slightest trace of bloodiness as I had expected, nor the stench typical of a rotting corpse.

Did they all completely decompose and turn into bones?
This made him raise an eyebrow and immediately continue sniffing.

The next moment he finally sensed a very faint, peculiar smell, which seemed to be the smell of ink and cotton fibers, completely out of place with the surrounding natural atmosphere.

Chen Baiyu's eyes narrowed.

Then you'll have a general idea.

He bent down and picked up a dead branch as thick as his arm from beside his feet, then precisely inserted the tip of the branch into a crack in the soil where the suitcase was exposed.

Then he began to exert his strength.

It took almost no effort.

With a few prying motions, the box buried underground gradually began to emerge.

Then he used a twig to scrape away the rotten leaves and dirt clinging to the surface, revealing the intact suitcase.

As you can see, many parts of the suitcase are damaged, and a lot of things have leaked in through the holes.

He reached out and gripped the groove on the side of the box.

With a little force, the already rusted lock snapped off.

The moment the lid popped open.

Neatly folded light-colored papers came into view.

The unique texture and the scent of ink were even clearer at this moment, which was the source of the aroma he had just captured.

This whole box is full of banknotes.

However, besides that, mud, insects, and a sticky, strange liquid all poured in, and most of the banknotes inside were completely ruined by the damp jungle environment due to the damage to the suitcase.

After careful selection.

There should be about half of it that is still intact.

"So it really is this thing..."

Chen Baiyu raised an eyebrow, then casually rummaged through the suitcase with a wooden stick, tearing many wet banknotes in the process.

"Looking at it like this..."

"Are there still a few hundred thousand usable personalities left?"

Chen Baiyu made an estimate out of curiosity.

Recalling that his mission, "Forging the Anchor of Wealth," required accumulating wealth, he tried closing the suitcase and then carrying it in his hand.

In this case……

This unclaimed item should belong to him, right?
【drop! 】

[You have received 89100 Starry Sky United Magic Empire Gold Coins. Based on today's world exchange rate, you have received 634347.45 Central Magic Empire Gold Coins.]

Your current accumulated Central Magic Empire Gold Coins total 910103.92

The system voice sounded.

really.

Once he found something that seemed to be unclaimed, it naturally became his.

The system's judgment rules are very comprehensive.

However, I'll probably have to take this thing back with me before I leave, otherwise the system might consider it a loss of the Starry Sky United Magic Empire's gold coins.

After all, the money he had spent before was deducted from his progress by the system. This task obviously doesn't calculate the money he has earned; it only calculates based on his current real-time bank account.

So even if you take this thing back, you shouldn't spend it recklessly.

He also planned to take it back and hide it to boost his mission progress.

I just don't know if I can bring any items on the return ticket for the rainbow transformation ceremony?

Chen Baiyu couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Theoretically speaking, there shouldn't be any major problems.

After all, besides himself, all his clothes had been brought along.

Moreover, I could vaguely sense that the moment my senses returned, I could smell the air that might have come from that warehouse.

It is highly likely that carrying substances is possible.

However, to be on the safe side, it would be best to take these banknotes out completely and dry them in the sun.

Then I put it in my pocket and took it with me.

In terms of quality alone, banknotes worth over 80,000 shouldn't be heavier than clothes plus a bunch of air, so carrying only that part shouldn't be a problem.

However, it's best not to try teleporting back with something as big as a suitcase.

That's going too far.

If it had to be that way, Chen Baiyu would rather give up this unexpected windfall than try to provoke the limits of rigorous ritual magic.

While thinking.

Chen Baiyu then started to estimate again.

The actual amount of the dollar in front of him was less than he had initially estimated.

It's not entirely his fault, since the suitcase was torn. It was full of mud, broken leaves, sticky liquid, and shredded banknotes; it was difficult to discern anything intact.

There's no problem with my own savings.

Chen Baiyu recalled for a moment.

This data is correct. After receiving more than 100,000 yuan in film remuneration from director Hong Lingfeng, my savings amounted to approximately 306632.47 yuan.

Don't ask him why he remembers it so clearly.

It wasn't just his extraordinary memory, but also the fact that he received a text message that day from Kugou Music about the automatic renewal he had forgotten to turn off last month, which made it hard for him not to remember it.

Then add the money spent on materials before this mission, as well as the various travel expenses and other costs incurred after returning from Jiujiang.

With the money he had left, plus the US dollars he unexpectedly received, he had a little over nine hundred thousand dollars.

This is still a bit short of achieving the one million goal in the third phase of the "Forging the Anchor of Wealth" mission, but it should be completed soon.

Once you obtain the title of wealth manager, you will gain an additional 10% trust.

"As expected, windfall and ill-gotten gains come faster."

"Don't you think so, Mr. Bear?"

Whispering.

Chen Baiyu didn't even turn her head; she simply reached behind her and firmly pinched the furry mouth.

Not only was it unable to open its mouth for a long time, but it also fell into a state of human-like bewilderment.

next moment.

Chen Baiyu calmly turned her head.

Sitting behind him was a brown bear that had been about to bite him, but was now frozen in place because someone had precisely pinched its mouth shut without its sight.

In fact, Chen Baiyu did have a field of vision for capturing.

Although he seemed to be daydreaming, it didn't mean that all his senses had stopped working; they were all normally and passively activated functions.

The brown bear thought it had sneaked over, but in reality, it had been under Chen Baiyu's auditory observation the whole time, and he could clearly hear every step it took.

It could be said that it looks quite clownish.

Not to mention when the brown bear got within seven meters of him.

No matter how silent and sneaky you are, it's meaningless, because you've already entered the range of his divine sense.

His spiritual perception range was bound to his level.

After reaching level seven, it already has a spherical range with a radius of seven meters.

Therefore, at this moment, he could perceive even the smallest detail of every single hair on the brown bear.

Chen Baiyu pinching the brown bear's mouth.

I'm quietly watching this brown bear right now.

His eyes showed not only no worry, but also a hint of eagerness.

Brown bears in the wild should be extremely intimidating.

If this brown bear stood up, it would definitely be nearly three meters tall, and the thick brown fur on its shoulders and back looked like it was wearing a rough armor.

Each one is covered with soil and resin from the forest, exuding a primal wildness.

The edges of the palm-sized paw pads were still embedded with bits of dead wood that hadn't been cleaned off, and the sharp claw tips gleamed with a cold, hard luster in the morning light.

There is no doubt that it is a weapon capable of smashing tree trunks with a single swipe and tearing the fur of prey.

This is undoubtedly an extremely terrifying wild animal. There are very few land creatures that can defeat this thing, let alone humans, who are definitely considered weak.

But its current posture doesn't look fierce at all; instead, it looks surprisingly cute.

If any normal person were to come here...

Seeing this scene, one might wonder if the expressions of the man and the bear have been reversed.
Why are people who should be afraid not afraid, and bears who should be confident not confident?
Is this right?
