A Single Person's Infinite Wonderful Life

Li Wei laughed and said, "Once the wagtail game is completely over, we can all sit on our blankets and travel around the world. After we've had our fill of fun, we can leave this world."

"Great!"

Upon hearing the girl's words, the girls cheered. The idea of ​​traveling around the world was incredibly appealing to them.

Chapter 4. Deer Fire's Past

The carpet walkway wasn't very high, and it would occasionally pass between two buildings. The girls, with their excellent eyesight, could clearly see what the people inside the buildings were doing. It was working hours, and inside the office building, the office workers were working hard at their desks.

Although the Wagyu game was quite lively in the Underworld, anyone with any skill in the Underworld had been keeping a low profile, fearing they might be drawn into the dangerous game. However, ordinary people were unaware of these events. Apart from noticing that there had been a higher frequency of pipe explosions and various accidents in the Eastern Capital recently, they hadn't noticed anything unusual.

Looking at the busy employees in the office building, Li Wei sighed inwardly. Although he had been taught since childhood that the power of the masses was immense, the various situations he faced told him a harsh truth: the power of the masses without cohesion is meaningless. It was like the Sekirei game, which would determine the lives of billions of people worldwide, yet this serious and terrifying matter was in the hands of teenagers. If anything went wrong, humanity on Earth would be doomed.

Li Wei wasn't an elitist, but it was incredibly difficult to unite the power of the masses. Even if all ordinary people knew about MBI's conspiracy, they still couldn't do anything to Mihiro. MBI had already developed into a terrifying behemoth capable of surpassing nations, like the prototype of a giant corporation in a cyberpunk world. If it continued to develop for several decades, humanity might truly enter a cyberpunk timeline. Once Mihiro achieved his ambition and became a god, who knows how he would establish the order of this world? So, Li Wei wouldn't be surprised by any bizarre things that might happen.

Li Wei had accessed Mihiro's memories. Mihiro was an elitist, a racist, a proponent of social hierarchy, and a supporter of the caste system. If he truly possessed power surpassing all others, he might create a kingdom of his own imagination, a nation that aligned with his ideals and aesthetics. However, considering Mihiro's own inclinations, this kingdom would certainly not be very friendly to ordinary people.

Li Wei said, "We are very close to our target. At our current speed, we can keep up with them steadily."

Curious, the Uranium Girl approached the edge of the carpet. An invisible, transparent wall completely separated the area inside the carpet from the outside world. No matter how the carpet accelerated or spun, the person sitting on it would not feel any feedback force from the acceleration. Even if the carpet were turned upside down, the person on it would not fall off. This perfect control over gravity completely surpassed the fantastical prototype of the carpet.

Because she didn't have to worry about falling, Uranium Girl was very brave and stuck herself to the transparent wall, looking down.

Uranium Woman said, "I can't sense Raven Feather's aura at all here. Maybe it's because we're still a bit far away, or at least it's beyond the limits of my perception."

Sekirei possess a degree of sensory ability, and they also have a special attraction to each other. Therefore, even without any guidance, Sekirei can easily meet each other, which is somewhat similar to Stand users.

Li Wei said, "Pretty much. If you move a little closer, you'll be able to sense it."

While Uranium Girl is the team's assassin unit, specializing in finishing off weakened enemies, her sensory abilities are undoubtedly tank-level within the team. Aside from being outmatched by Matsu, whose mental strength is immense, and the super-monster Miya, whose art style is completely different from the other Sekirei, Uranium Girl's mental perception is far superior to the rest of the team. Therefore, if even Uranium Girl can't sense something, the others certainly can't either.

The carpet accelerated forward for a distance, and the Uranium Woman felt a burning sensation in her mental senses, like a torch. She focused her mind and sensed three more sensations. Two of them were familiar faces she had met before, Red Wing and Gray Wing, and the third was a completely unfamiliar fluctuation.

Uranium Woman said, "I can sense the existence of the knot, but it feels so strange to me. In my perception, there are actually two people."

Deer Fire said from the side, "Because Jie has the core of Lady Jie's body, her existence will seem very strange if you try to perceive her."

Lu Huo was another eyewitness to the kidnapping incident. She and Jie were kidnapped by the special forces of the United States. If the Punishment Team had not arrived in time, she and Jie would probably be serving as guinea pigs in some secret laboratory on the American continent.

She witnessed firsthand how the woman merged her own Sekirei machine into the woman's body, causing the woman, who had been in a vegetative state, to awaken before her eyes. The scene was so impactful that even now, she still remembers what happened back then.

Moreover, she would never forget the hatred in her heart. If it weren't for the evil existence of the country, the tragedy of Jie Nu and Jie would never have happened.

Uranium Girl said, "I heard from Matsu-senpai that Yume-senpai is very special. Ordinary Sekirei only have the Sekirei stem, but Yume-senpai is the only Sekirei that has both the Sekirei stem and the Reed Sprout stem. She is the only Sekirei individual that can use prayer words and unleash her full power without needing the Reed Sprout. Speaking of which, there are really all sorts of strange people in the Sekirei sequence. It feels like everyone has their own special characteristics."

Shika said, "However, Yume-senpai didn't like her constitution. Being able to unleash her full power without needing a Reed Sprout might be a good thing for some individuals who love battle. But not being able to have her own Reed Sprout is a regret that will forever remain in Yume-senpai's heart. She entrusted her Sekirei stem to Yume, probably wanting Yume to fulfill her wish. After all, Yume-senpai directly refers to herself as the Sekirei of Fate, and I think the reason is because she cares about this kind of thing."

Shika is a Sekirei of the same age and generation as Yui. In a way, the two are more like sisters than sisters. Moreover, both of them are physical strength-enhancing Sekirei, and their fighting styles are quite similar, which can be considered a kind of fate.

The girls listened to the conversation between the two men with curious expressions. After all, it was intriguing that such a secret, buried deep in the past, was being unearthed and told as a story.

Chapter 4. The Appearance of the Knot

Following her senses, Uranium Girl looked down and, with eyesight far exceeding that of ordinary people, saw the transport truck being swept along by the traffic. It has to be said that, as a metropolis with a permanent population of over 20 million, Dongdi Capital still has an alarming number of vehicles on the road, even during off-peak hours. If the transport truck were attacked at this time, it would have no chance of escaping and would have no choice but to get out and defend itself.

Uranium Girl said, "If I keep looking like this, I wonder if Raven Feather will notice me. That guy's perception is very strong too."

Li Wei said, "Don't worry, the transparent wall of the carpet is similar to one-way glass. It's fine for people inside to see out, but if they want to see in from the outside? Then the other side's strength must be stronger than mine. Raven Feather is not qualified."

Uranium Girl felt relieved after hearing Li Wei's words. The most troublesome aspect between Wagyu is that when one side is sensed by the other, it's easy for them to track the other's mental fluctuations and track their mental body. Therefore, if they are too close and release their senses, it's equivalent to the Wagyu giving away their position.

Hu Die, who was standing nearby, said, "It's a pity that adults have to follow the rules, otherwise we could have ended the game much faster."

Li Wei said, "I may not give Yu Guangren face, but if I don't give the other side face, I'm afraid he might do something irrational. After all, that guy still holds the back door for most of the wagtails. Besides, following the rules isn't a big deal; the rules are also beneficial to us."

The girls were playing Monopoly. Miki, who had already been eliminated, stepped aside and said, "Only Lord Li Wei would think like this. The rules restrict you so much, yet you don't seem to mind."

Li Wei laughed and said, "A game should look like a game. I like playing games, whether it's video games or live-action games. As long as the rules of the game are not broken, I am willing to abide by the rules."

Li Wei is a very contradictory person. He decides whether to follow the rules based on his mood and needs. When the situation is in his favor, he is happy to follow the rules. When the situation is not in his favor, he will secretly do something to benefit himself by breaking or circumventing the rules.

The current situation is favorable for Li Wei, so he doesn't need to resort to any underhanded tactics. He can simply intercept the Sekirei when MBI releases it. The current rules already try to level the playing field for players of varying abilities. Most other Sekirei players can benefit from these rules to some extent. It's only Li Wei's special case that makes him unnecessary to accept MBI's offer of help. Playing games, if done within the rules, isn't simply about who has the bigger fist. Like in League of Legends, if you're less skilled and get crushed, do you have to rely on your strength to beat up the person who defeated you?

Appropriate rules can allow people to disregard differences in physical strength and compete on a level playing field. To some extent, the Wagyu game does achieve this. However, in the original storyline, there was someone who consistently used underhanded tactics and didn't follow the rules. This person was Hyogo Izumi from the Eastern faction. However, with the arrival of Li Wei, Hyogo Izumi was directly defeated and is now a cripple, his status in the family has plummeted, and he suffers both mental and physical torment every day.

Without Izumi's interference, the Sekirei game progressed more steadily, preventing Sekirei and Ash from being inexplicably ambushed and eliminated. In the original storyline, Izumi, through the utterly unethical method of kidnapping Ash and Sekirei, caused several Sekirei to suffer severe injuries and nearly die due to lack of timely treatment. However, now, even villains have their match. After encountering a top-tier villain like Li Wei, Izumi has suffered a severe setback, living a life worse than death. Just a few days ago, Li Wei's origami cranes reported a new scene: Izumi was about to commit suicide by jumping off a building, but was stopped by his bodyguards, leaving him tied to the bed and continuing to suffer various forms of pain.

The current Bing'equan is infected with all sorts of viruses and bacteria. A normal person in this situation would have died dozens of times over, but despite the torment, he remains alive and well, becoming a mobile "poisonous person" who doesn't spread pollution but can effectively block large numbers of viruses and bacteria. Because of this, he became a member of the research institute, responsible for being studied.

The blanket lowered the height, allowing everyone to clearly see the situation below. MBI is wealthy and powerful, and for each transport mission, it prepares different types of transport vehicles to ensure that each transport can be disguised to the best extent. Just like this time, the transport vehicle carrying the knot is a new type, and there is no pattern to it compared with the previous transport vehicles.

·Requesting flowers·· ······

Li Wei said, "They usually take a long detour and never know where they'll end up. This time, we'll probably have to wait."

The girls who had come out with Li Wei before were no longer in a hurry, because they had gotten used to this kind of waiting. MBI was becoming increasingly cautious, and a sudden appearance might cause misunderstandings. It was really unnecessary to let such a good thing get fraught with trouble just to save a little time.

Moreover, the waiting time wasn't boring at all. The carpet had a full set of entertainment facilities, so the girls could find some fun for themselves while waiting, instead of just sitting there waiting idly.

.. .. .......

The armored transport vehicle of the transport unit looks like an ordinary small pickup truck, except that the rear compartment has been fully enclosed and converted into a living area, turning it into a small RV.

To ensure the safety of the wagtail, MBI used every means at their disposal. Only with Levi's deliberate restraint was MBI able to smoothly advance its plan. However, this also gave Levi a significant advantage, allowing him to quickly acquire the wagtail he desired.

When the transport truck pulled over, it was already around 2 p.m., and Li Wei also lowered the blanket.

The side door of the transport vehicle opened, and after the three members of the punishment team got out, a girl dressed in a slightly revealing shrine maiden outfit, with her cute short hair styled into a bob-like shape, her stiff ahoge sticking up proudly, and a silly, optimistic smile on her face, also got out. This was the end.

Redwing stretched his stiff muscles and said, "Our mission is complete. Now it's up to you, Captain. As for me, Graywing and I will head back first."

Red Wing rubbed her still sore face. Crow Feather had really pinched her hard before, and her face still hurt. She would have to take good care of her face when she got back.

Graywing had been wanting to go back for a while. Today was the airing day of her favorite variety show. Although she had already set up recording, she was still a little worried and wanted to go back to check if the videotape had been recorded.

Chapter 4. Encounter with Yui

After a long day of travel, Jie had exhausted herself, but she still maintained her optimistic attitude and said with a smile to Red Wing and Gray Wing beside her, "You two have worked hard. It's really a lot of trouble for you to protect me."

Redwing said somewhat embarrassedly, "It's just a mission, don't overthink it. We might even become rivals next time we meet."

Jie smiled and said, "But that's a matter for later. Right now, I only know that you helped me, that's all. It would be very impolite not to express gratitude to someone who has helped you."

Because of her past experiences and upbringing, Jie is someone who lives in the present. For her, every moment must be truly cherished, lest it be too late for regrets later. Having once come incredibly close to death, if it weren't for a respected senior entrusting her with their Sekirei steed, she would likely be brain-dead and in a vegetative state by now. The feeling of being near death is unpleasant; she can feel her life slowly slipping away, so she approaches life with extreme seriousness.

Redwing wasn't used to this kind of interpersonal interaction. After all, since becoming a member of the Punishment Squad, she had always been doing the dirty work, and no one knew her contributions; they only knew she was an MBI lackey. It could be said that the third generation of the Punishment Squad, because of Ravenfeather, was infamous within the Wagtail Corps, completely incomparable to the first two generations.

It would be a lie to say that Red Wing never cared about such things. She also wanted respect and courtesy, but since joining the punishment team, she had drifted further and further away from her goal. To the point that now, she had given up and didn't care about being treated as a lackey. She no longer cared about other people's opinions.

However, now a fool is thanking her very sincerely for her efforts, which has stirred up quite a bit of emotion in her. Not being good at dealing with such situations, she doesn't know how to respond.

Graywing said, "Redwing, let's not waste any more time. Let's go. I don't know if my recording is on yet. If we go back now, we might still make it in time."

"I know! What a hassle. Jie, next time we meet, we might become rivals. At that time, I won't hold back. My fists really will kill you," Red Wing said, blushing slightly.

With his fists clenched in front of his chest and an excited smile on his face, he said, "I will also fight with all my might. I have already made a promise with Senior Ya Yu to settle this matter in the Sky. Before I meet Senior Ya Yu, I will absolutely not lose to anyone!"

Redwing said, "It's good to be confident, but it's not easy to maintain a winning streak. I don't know why, but the overall strength of the Wagyu has improved significantly recently. With your current strength, if you don't continue to improve, you could be upset at any time."

As a member of the punishment team, Red Wing shouldn't have been providing information to the Sekirei who were participating in the game. However, she had unexpectedly sensed the kindness of ordinary Sekirei, so she said a few more words. If Yui were smart enough, she could have gleaned more information from her words.

Jie smiled and said, "I will do my best to challenge him, and I hope we can have a chance to fight each other."

Redwing nodded and got into the transport vehicle with Graywing. At the drop-off point, only Ravenfeather and Knot remained.

Ravenfeather asked, "Where do you plan to go next to find your reed shoot?"

Having gained some experience in her current work, Ya Yu had observed that, generally speaking, all the various Reed Sprouts she had encountered came from relatively well-off families. Tracing their ancestry back, one would find that their ancestors were mostly powerful and wealthy, even if they had fallen on hard times, their circumstances were still far better than those of ordinary people. Ya Yu didn't know the reason for this, but this was the pattern she had encountered among the Reed Sprouts, almost like a bloodline theory, clearly telling her that the Reed Sprouts were holders of a special bloodline.

As a new generation of wagtail, Crow Feather had no idea how the reed sprouts came to be. The person who knew the most about this was Meizai, who was himself a walking history book.

If you're looking for someone with these qualities, head straight to the bustling areas of the city; you'll have a higher chance of meeting them.

Jie said, "I haven't decided yet, but I want to go to the heart of the city first. My intuition tells me that my reed sprout is very likely to be there."

Li Wei felt the time was right, so he deactivated the invisibility of the low-lying blanket. The sudden shadow cast by the blanket startled the two girls. Li Wei jumped off the blanket and landed in front of them.

Ya Yu covered his forehead with one hand, a helpless expression on his face, and said, "It's you again. How come I see you everywhere? You've gone too far. I'm not sure how to explain this to Yu."

Li Wei smiled and said, "I'm just here to find my destined one. I haven't been very active lately."

Ravenfeather said, “You do not act very often, but every time, you choose the best wagtails, which is very unfair to the other reed shoots.”

Li Wei said, "Ms. Raven Feather, that's your prejudice. I never chose the Sekirei because of its strength. You know my own strength. Do I need the Sekirei to add to my already impressive abilities? I always choose the Sekirei based on fate. I'm just here to find the Sekirei that I'm destined to be with."

After thinking for a moment, Ya Yu said, "Alright, you have a chance to talk to this girl in person, but if you can't reach an agreement, I'll take her away."

Karasu knew that even if she tried to force him, she couldn't stop Li Wei. Since that was the case, she might as well face reality and give Li Wei a chance; it would also give her a way out. Besides, she felt that what Li Wei said made sense. After all, not every Sekirei around Li Wei was particularly skilled in combat. Girls like Butterfly, Kuno, and even the child-like Kusa were typical non-combatants, essentially useless cards to pollute the gacha pool for the other Reisha. Yet Li Wei was willing to accept them, which meant that his claim that he sought Sekirei based on fate, not combat strength, was plausible.

Jie looked at Li Wei with curiosity. Li Wei had a very strange aura about him, which made her feel like she had known him for a long time, even though it was the first time she had met him. He was very friendly and approachable, like an older brother next door. His words were hard to dislike.

Chapter 4. New Hope

This was the first time Li Wei had seen Jie in person, and she was much prettier in person than in photos. It has to be said that some girls are not photogenic; they may be very beautiful in person, but they look more ordinary in photos.

Jie is that type; her features are more three-dimensional than in photos. However, in photos, it's difficult to see these facial features clearly because photos aren't 3D models that can reproduce the real person's appearance as accurately as possible.

Li Wei didn't stare directly at Jie's face. Although Jie was indeed beautiful, he was a seasoned womanizer and his manners were impeccable. Jie, on the other hand, kept staring at Li Wei, making no attempt to hide her curiosity; the roles of men and women were reversed.

Ya Yu looked at the girls peering down from the edge of the blanket, sighed, and said, "Li Weijun, you bring other girls along when you're pursuing a girl. I don't know what you're thinking."

Li Wei said frankly, "Because they all support this kind of thing. Since everyone supports it, why hide it? Besides, if we can become partners, we will meet sooner or later. There is no point in hiding it now."

Ya Yu said, "You really are an honest guy, but I don't dislike people like you."

Li Wei said, "Because there's no point in hiding some things; they'll come out sooner or later anyway. Rather than trying to cover them up when the time comes, it's better to explain your situation from the beginning."

Ya Yu said, "I have nothing more to say. It all depends on whether Jie is willing to choose you. Do you need to find a place to rest?"
