However, he dispelled the idea of going to help Xiaojing that had been on his mind for more than half an hour.
Xiao Jing is simply a superwoman!
That's incredible!
As expected, she still can't live without Yukino. If the sisters can't work together, who knows, Yukino might end up in a very embarrassing way.
Chapter 129 You've broken the law, do you know that?
With a long, drawn-out breath.
Hiratsuka Shizuka, who had been holding onto Higashino Akira tightly, was completely defeated. She lay weakly on the bedding in the tent, drenched in sweat, her chest heaving and panting heavily.
I also experienced what Saki Kawasaki had felt before.
My stomach feels bloated and warm.
Why not avoid it?
Looking at his good-looking brother, Higashino Akira thought that he could forgive himself for not being prepared beforehand last time, but this time he was too hasty at the beginning and did not have time to take precautions. In the end, he was planning to fire a blank shot.
After all, Hiratsuka Shizuka hadn't told her in advance that she had this intention.
As for whether he would have children, he didn't really care. It was fine if he did, but it didn't matter if he didn't. If the system version hadn't been upgraded and his identity was only that of a mortal emperor, he might have had some thoughts about that.
However, according to the system's 2.0 version, at this moment, his status is already that of a main god of a pantheon. If he continues to upgrade at this rate, his life level might break through the limits of humanity one day and enter the realm of longevity or even immortality.
In this situation, the child becomes dispensable.
The main point is to ensure that it doesn't violate the woman's wishes, as he can cooperate with whatever she wants.
Lying next to Higashino Akira, Hiratsuka Shizuka, who had just been defeated in a CG animation, snorted coldly upon hearing this, her face full of disdain, "Because I'm not afraid!"
"Another round?" Higashino Akira chuckled upon hearing this, teasing him mischievously.
Immediately, Hiratsuka Shizuka grabbed the blanket and pulled it over herself, refusing in a muffled voice, "No, I'm sleepy, I should go to sleep."
"Xiao Jing, you're so cute."
"Shut up, hand me some tissues."
Higashino Akira laughed out loud, while from under the covers came the sounds of Ms. Shizuka's embarrassed and angry reaction.
She even became shy.
In the next tent, Yukino Yukinoshita breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that the two had finally quieted down. She glanced at the time; it was already past midnight, and she could finally get some sleep.
Originally, encouraging Yukino to take the initiative to go further was for her own good, but now it seems that it was also for my own good, it's a necessity!
If the sisters cannot unite, Vadashi...
That would be terrible for the rats!
After all, she didn't have Xiao Jing's strong physique and fighting ability.
Thinking this, Yukinoshita Haruno rolled over and hugged her adorable Ichimokuta tightly. In an instant, she startled Yukinoshita Yukino, who was also feeling hot and unable to fall asleep, and her whole body tensed up.
Yukinoshita gave a mischievous smile. "Hehe, goodnight, Yukino-chan."
Yukinoshita Yukino: "..."
The next morning.
After a quick wash and a bite to eat, and having tidied up our belongings and trash at the campsite, the group prepared to disperse and head back.
Hiratsuka Shizuka held onto Higashino Akira's waist tightly as they walked towards the car. Her face was rosy, and her skin was so tender it looked like it could be squeezed for water. Meeting Haruno's admiring gaze, she smiled and raised her pretty face with a touch of arrogance.
Once I got in the car, I sat in the passenger seat.
After closing the car door, the smile on his face immediately faded. He grinned, feeling his calves trembling and his body swaying unsteadily, speechless.
She's almost thirty! She's such a mature woman!
They say you're like a wolf at thirty, and she's at least two-thirds wolf by now, so how come she's so easily defeated, getting beaten so badly by a young man in his early twenties?
That's a pervert!
Turning her head, she glanced somewhat resentfully at the young man beside her who was focused on driving, and Hiratsuka Shizuka sighed silently.
Damn it, you'll do it again next time!
Let's have our fun first.
…………
Yunmeng Group has a publicity department.
A junior manager in charge of field promotion looked at the notice sent down from above, frowned and pondered for a long time but still couldn't understand why headquarters would issue such an abstract order. However, since it was an order from headquarters, he could only obey it.
Anyway, it wasn't him who was fired, so he had to respect the salary Yunmeng offered him.
Stepping out of the office, his gaze precisely locked onto an employee who had only been working for about a week and was still in the internship stage without being officially hired. He waved to him.
"Mr. Yuzo, can we talk?"
The supervisor led his bewildered subordinate to a corner of the work area and looked at him with some difficulty. "The higher-ups require every employee to register for that game and log in every day to visit the shrine and check in. It's something that can be done in a few minutes. The group is even willing to shorten the working hours of all employees by half an hour for this purpose. This is a good thing. Mr. Yu San hasn't implemented the arrangement yet, has he?"
After saying that, without waiting for his troubled subordinate to explain further, he issued an ultimatum, "Mr. Yu San, can you do it? If you are still unwilling, we can only regretfully apologize to you. Although it may seem strange, you know that the group does not offer such good treatment to everyone without conditions."
Upon hearing this, the employee's expression darkened. He thought about how after those people registered game accounts and successfully logged in to worship, the entire phone screen emitted a scorching barrier that was almost identical to that of a real shrine, resisting the supernatural. This kind of thing looked strange; even ghosts wouldn't want to touch it!
His face twitched, his eyes hardened, and he suddenly turned around, grabbed his bastard boss by the collar, and punched him hard in the face.
At the same time, taking advantage of the chaos, half of the soul had already emerged from the body and was burrowing into this guy's body.
He had initially thought the group's promotion channels were relatively smooth, and he planned to take it easy and climb the ranks step by step, taking it easy and not rushing to work. After all, finding a suitable body to work for wasn't easy. But now it seems there's no way around it.
You bastards, why didn't you just cooperate obediently? Why did you have to force me!
Then I'll borrow your body. You've become a winner in life, and your wife and daughter are quite good-looking. I'll take care of them for you from now on!
Just as his spirit body, shrouded in a dark purple energy field, was about to touch the junior manager's body, a golden light suddenly emanated from the cell phone in the other person's pocket, enveloping him. The golden light vibrated and instantly repelled him. The sudden heat burned the surface of his spirit body, turning it black and red. He couldn't help but scream and shrink back into his original body, no longer daring to show himself.
From the perspective of an ordinary person who cannot see spirits, the supervisor who was punched fell to the ground and cried out in pain. Other employees in the work area were shocked and quickly surrounded him to hold down the assailant to prevent him from hurting people further. Several others helped the supervisor up.
The supervisor, clutching his face and wincing in pain, stared incredulously at his subordinate who had suddenly gone berserk.
No, it's not like we didn't give him a chance to complete the registration as soon as possible. Even if we disagree, we can just part ways amicably. Is it really necessary to make such a fuss?
You've broken the law, do you even know that?!
Thinking of the handling measures sent by the group headquarters this morning, the junior manager picked up his phone and dialed the number of a police officer in the police department of the neighboring county, briefly explained the situation, and contacted the officer to come and take the prisoner away as soon as possible.
After finishing everything, I hung up the phone and glared hatefully at that madman.
Chapter 130 Possession
Soon, the insiders closest to the site quickly arrived and retrieved the assailant from the ocean.
In just one morning, one-third of the faith power that Higashino Akira had accumulated the day before was instantly consumed.
Wool comes from sheep.
Normally, the existence of a shrine's barrier depends on the power of the gods, but Akira Higashino has only recently transcended the level of mortals and hasn't gone very far, so he can't be said to have much supernatural power.
Therefore, the energy that sustains the shrine barrier in the phones of those who have successfully registered for "Okuzome Story," visit the Yunmeng Shrine according to the daily quest process, and become believers in the Yunmeng pantheon, is the power of faith that they unconsciously offer.
This thing is essentially an insurance policy. Unlike the normal shrine barrier that maintains a certain intensity year-round, the electronic Yunmeng Shrine barrier inside the phone only maintains a minimum power consumption state, and its only function is sensing.
It will not operate at high power levels unless it senses a supernatural attack that could cause fatal damage to the player.
There are so many ordinary people in this world, and the majority of them will not encounter supernatural beings and will live normal lives. Essentially, as long as the game is promoted far enough and there are enough players, it will not collapse.
The reason why such a large amount of resources were depleted today is mainly due to the internal purge of uncooperative employees. Many insidious individuals who had infiltrated the group suddenly attacked and injured people, triggering the defense mechanism.
Of course, to prevent his savings from being maliciously taken advantage of by some people, Akira Higashino also set a limit. Each shrine branch terminal, unless it is an internal employee, has a limited number of defenses that can be triggered in the short term and a limited limit.
Once triggered, to obtain the shrine's protective barrier again, he either has to wait a long time for the faith power he gains from daily worship and sign-in to make up for the amount he consumed last time, or he has to actively promote a sufficient number of active players and have a portion of that revenue allocated to him to make up for the previous consumption.
This patch was just installed today.
The reason is that Higashino Akira discovered that nearly half of the shrine terminals that triggered the barrier were not official employees of his Yunmeng Group, and the frequency was ridiculously high, unlike some unlucky people who occasionally encounter ghosts.
Higashino Akira then attached his spiritual power to the newly formed bond line and looked over to observe it.
Then, it was discovered that a group of idiots who liked to play psychic games and explore haunted places were using his faith power as a get-out-of-jail-free card to seek thrills. Also, those mediocre people in the psychic world also discovered this use and went to haunt ghosts with their phones to explore the upper limit of their defensive power.
These guys had a blast, swiping his card and using all his savings!
In a fit of anger, Higashino Akira blocked all of these idiots. He would only reopen the barrier function of the shrine branch terminal when they accumulated double the amount of faith power they consumed through daily worship, or when a sufficient number of new players were willing to visit the Yunmeng Shrine in the game every day.
If luck is a panacea for him personally, then the power of faith is a panacea that can replace all kinds of extraordinary powers.
It works well for shrines and also enhances the strength of subordinate deities.
Only one in a thousand naturalized subjects has the opportunity to be granted a title of subordinate deity, and only by having one hundred general believers contribute a little faith power each day can a single drop of pure incense faith be purified.
The salaries he paid to his subordinate deities were deducted from his salary according to a certain percentage. For those with average aptitude, like the little fox who did a lot of errands, they received thirty drops of purified incense and faith per month.
Those who became more sophisticated henchmen, such as courtesans and spirits from H City who were traded from Xiaoyexiao and named Thousand Souls Huayan Self-Slaying Child, earned even more per month.
Theoretically speaking, the faith power provided by the one thousand people required for each conferment of a divine title can be considered as their fiefdom, while the additional believers who can provide faith even before being assimilated are Higashino Akira's private territory.
However, bosses must first get rich themselves before they can help others get rich. In order to reduce salaries to prepare for hiring more people in the future, work positions must be reserved. The maximum number of people allocated to the incense and faith of the people is 1,000. How can a boss pay a CEO's salary to a new employee right away? How can he promote and raise employees in the future?
It's incredibly unfair that errand runners and fighters receive the same salary when the upper limit is the same.
Therefore, it is better to make things difficult for subordinates and let the gods bear the blame.
What percentage you can get, whether it's 91% or 69%, depends on how hard and ambitious your subordinates are.
For a few special subordinates, like Kanoko, who has her own shrine and followers and doesn't have much need for faith, she doesn't need to receive faith power from Higashino Akira. She can be left to her own devices, and her salary is unlimited deer crackers and fresh fruit.
Unfortunately, she seems to be some kind of comedic character, with rather ordinary abilities and mechanics. Moreover, after staying for a while, she seems to have a kind of brain-degrading aura, making those around her become abstract and unrecognizable regardless of friend or foe. It's hard to say whether she has any potential for development.
.........
In the afternoon, after temporarily mitigating the impact of deep-sea fishing.
Akira Higashino has been active in security posts around Tokyo where he has his own people, checking on the spies he pulled out from within the group today. These guys are pretty stubborn.
In order to prevent them from being switched or from staging some kind of assassination attempt to disgust people, although they were apprehended under pressure, they couldn't use any special interrogation methods that might give others new leverage. After a whole day of interrogation, they still couldn't get anything useful out of them.
Until, when Higashino Akira saw a familiar name in a temporary shelter, he suddenly froze and stopped in his tracks.
"What's his name?"
"Your Majesty, this man's name is Fukusuke Yuzo."
