In a crossover anime, the only way to become stronger is by marrying a wife.

Survival strategies do exist, but they are all very basic and don't reduce the danger level much.

Ultimately, it depends on luck.

It wasn't just Futada Goichi; almost everyone who entered the Otherworld and survived no longer immersed themselves in studying during this period, but instead fell into an endless abyss of fear.

No one knows when they will enter the Otherworld again, nor whether they will survive the next time they enter.

Everyone is trying to survive.

"I must live, I will definitely live..."

Futada Goichi muttered to himself, the fat on his face trembling.

"If all else fails, I'll just hire a bodyguard. As long as I have enough money, I'm sure I can find one! I will survive!"

……

Fujiwara Chika was also scrolling through her phone, her face unusually serious.

She used to be carefree, cheerful, and lively, but since entering the inner world and witnessing those cruel things, she has had to do her best to cope.

She lay back in the chair and stretched her muscles from sitting for so long.

There was a computer in front of him, displaying various information and data collected over the past few days.

Fujiwara Chika has an exceptional memory; she can remember all the names she saw in the Otherworld. Upon returning, she immediately began to have people investigate those players.

She skipped all her classes and took a long leave of absence, devoting all her time to summarizing this data in order to improve her survival and development when she entered the inner world for the second time.

That's right, it's not just about survival, but also about development.

Constantly avoiding problems is not the solution, and constantly seeking protection from others will eventually lead to betrayal.

The events in the inner world will eventually have a huge impact on the original world. If one cannot gain a foothold in the inner world, then one's own world will eventually be devoured by those powerful beings.

The current social upheaval is simply due to the small number of players and their low levels.

As for incidents involving scaling walls and leaping across rooftops, or robberies, there have been quite a few lately. These players with some skill levels are able to wreak havoc on society simply by using their physical strength, which is slightly better than that of ordinary people.

"We can't even find a single person with principles..."

Fujiwara Chika bit her finger, looked at the computer screen, and frowned.

Many of those who barely possessed any strength in the Otherworld were already eager to engage in theft and robbery in the original world.

Chapter 42 The Simple-Minded Sese

Because she was too weak, she would easily die in the early stages when facing those vicious monsters and player hunters. Fujiwara Chika also wanted to find some powerful people to protect her in the Otherworld.

However, the candidates must undergo rigorous screening.

The underworld can have a huge impact on the present-day neon world. At this time, power and money are not very attractive to those powerful players, and they do not pose a threat.

That is why we must find someone who at least has the basic principles and bottom line of being a human being, someone who will not degenerate into a beast simply because they are no longer bound by the law.

However, Fujiwara Chika used all her and her family's power and connections, spending a lot of money to collect player data and information, even obtaining personal information files of all players from the police station, but the result was a great disappointment to her.

Most of them are ordinary people who are powerless and only level one, so it can be basically confirmed that they are experience packs.

Don't be fooled by their daily adherence to laws and regulations and polite behavior; once they gain power or lose their restraints, their true nature is fully exposed.

Any act of kindness is based on the premise that the other party's identity and status are equal, and that there are various mandatory constraints.

Fujiwara Chika browsed through the forums about the Otherworld.

The platform is filled with a large number of armchair gamers and various misleading posts that are not entirely true.

The Li World Forum benefited from the surviving players, experiencing a surge in traffic and attracting many onlookers.

Some people with nothing better to do gradually figured out the worldview of the other world after studying a lot of guides from real players, and then started to create their own guides.

They originally had no ill intentions. People who have never been to the inner world simply do not believe that such a space exists. They just wanted to gain a lot of attention.

For true gamers, these guides are full of loopholes, so they naturally won't believe them and will simply ignore them.

However, there were also quite a few passersby who came to watch the spectacle.

When the Otherworld opened for the second time, some people believed the fake guides on the forums and died tragically in the mouths of monsters.

The Inner World Forum is bustling with activity now. Although the interface is rudimentary, it's the only place where they can communicate.

The hottest topic recently is none other than Tsukikawa Shuu.

Even Tsukikawa Shuu's previous post on the forum, which had the worst results, was dug up, and the comments below exploded.

Several new comments pop up every time the page is refreshed.

"What kind of crappy post gets pinned? I came here looking for guides, not to read scum like you!"

"Disgusting. Without the constraints of the law, they dare to do whatever they want in another world?"

"What do you mean by 'accepting many wives'?! This is an insult to women! Ladies, we absolutely cannot tolerate this kind of scoundrel continuing to act recklessly!"

"Yes, we must speak up for women, we must fight for justice for women's rights!"

……

As before, there were indeed many insults, but these were quickly drowned out by a tidal wave of amazement and all sorts of obsequious flattery.

"Is this the big shot named Tsukikawa Shuu?"

"Looking for a mentor!!"

"Mr. Yuechuan, this is my contact number. I am a director of the Tomie Group. Please feel free to ask for anything you need, and I will make sure it is done."

"Mr. Yuechuan, I am the county magistrate of a certain county. I have an only daughter. I wonder if Mr. Yuechuan would do me the honor of having a private talk?"

"Although I don't have a daughter, I do have several signed stars under my management. If Mr. Yuechuan doesn't mind, I can act as a go-between..."

……

No one knows if Tsukikawa Shuu is the strongest player in the Otherworld, but the various honor badges and levels he revealed in the Otherworld before have truly shocked everyone.

Regardless of whether he is the strongest or not, it's always good to curry favor with him first.

Fujiwara Chika took Tsukikawa Shuu very seriously this time, going through the back door to obtain first-hand information from the police station, and began organizing a team to analyze and investigate overnight.

The reason why so many notorious thieves and unsolved cases exist is twofold: first, police resources and funds are limited, making it impossible to investigate them thoroughly; second, they may involve various political figures and sensitive individuals, so police dare not investigate them in detail.

With a huge investment of manpower and resources, it is not difficult to trace what a person has done over the past ten days.

Fujiwara Chika also obtained a report about this person through her own methods.

But when she saw the information, Fujiwara Chika was somewhat surprised.

"Tsukikawa Shuu has always been a law-abiding citizen?"

Despite possessing immense power, he doesn't seem to be thinking about using it for any benefit; on the contrary, he happily goes to school every day.

Her life was so simple that even Fujiwara Chika couldn't believe it.

Every day is the same: going to school, going on dates with his girlfriend, then buying groceries and cooking at home. It's the same routine every day, nothing special. He's just an ordinary person.

"Having gained such immense power, don't you want to do anything with it?"

"If you don't do anything illegal or disorderly, then you can at least learn from those hero movies and fight against evil, right?"

But he seemed to enjoy wasting his abilities, spending his days shopping with his girlfriend in stores that looked cheap to Fujiwara Chika, and even eating discounted supermarket food.

This puzzled Fujiwara Chika greatly.

The original world didn't have superpowers, but status, power, and money are a kind of alternative superpowers, aren't they?

The nobles would not let their money and power sit idle; they would use them to improve their lives and gain greater benefits.

For players in the Otherworld, strength is a form of capital, something that can be used to gain greater benefits for themselves.

Originally, Fujiwara Chika thought that Tsukikawa Shuu, this great demon, should now be a sinful person.

Or they would simply use their power to burn, kill, plunder, and commit all sorts of atrocities.

Or he might collude with wealthy individuals and officials on the forum who try to curry favor with him, indirectly seeking personal gain, while the notorious villain Tsukikawa Shu acts as their protector, gaining a large group of henchmen to serve him, whose crimes would be equally numerous and difficult to count.

Fujiwara Chika investigated all the players whose names she could remember, and they all went down the same path, either revealing their true nature or succumbing to the temptations of the powerful and corrupt.

But this guy...

Fujiwara Chika couldn't understand him; at least from the perspective of an upper-class person like her, she couldn't understand him at all.

Is this guy just a simple pervert? Just thinking about using his immense power to... build a harem?

Fujiwara Chika could only come to this conclusion.

This... could be considered an unconventional person with strong principles?

Chapter 43 Seeking Skin from a Tiger

Fujiwara Chika carefully reviewed the information about Tsukikawa Hiiragi again.

"He seems to treat his girlfriend quite well?"

This surprised and puzzled Fujiwara Chika even more.

His girlfriend, well, she's just an ordinary girl who likes to go shopping in sportswear.
