Starting from Douluo Continent, I've become a god through daily check-ins.

Chapter 218 Flight Experiments

The next day, Shouxing led everyone to a high point by the stream. From there, they could look down at Shouxing's tent. Jingchen stood on the edge, glanced at the small tent below, which could barely be described as a cliff, and then looked at Shouxing beside him.

Shouge stood on the edge, looked at the scenery, put his hands on his hips, and said, "The wind direction is good, the location is good, the weather is good. Okay, fly, Tomoki."

Looking back, I saw Tomoki with a hang glider, staring at Moruga with a bewildered expression, and saying in a panic, "Wait...aren't you going to fly, Senpai?"

Shouge grabbed the stick at the tail of the hang glider and said to Tomoki, "You have to experience everything. Go." With that, Shouge gave a strong push, sending Tomoki flying.

Tomoki's body moved forward uncontrollably, shouting, "Ah... demon, devil!" Then, Tomoki fell vertically downwards.

Shouge, standing behind him with his hands on his hips, said to Tomoki, "Say what you want, this is my payment for tutoring you."

Chu Yuan was startled and quickly ran to the edge of the cliff, peering down and shouting to Zhi Shu, "Zhi Shu, cheer up!"

Mikako smiled and said from behind, "It will probably take about two weeks to fully recover."

Shouxing was still seriously pulling out his calculator and typing something on the keyboard, muttering to himself, "There's still a bit of a calculation error, so..."

Icarus walked behind Shouge and said blankly, "Um, can I say something? Master's senior, are you happy being with Master?"

Shouxing looked at Icarus, seemingly curious. Icarus continued, "I don't quite understand the meaning of the word 'happy' yet, but..."

"only?"

"Whenever I'm with Master, how should I put it... my heart feels soft," Icarus said.

Shouxing said, "Hmm, I see." Shouxing turned around and looked at the scenery in front of him. "Treat this as homework. You'll have to hand in a report someday."

Icarus answered blankly, "Yes."

As for Jing Chen, he's still looking at Zhi Shu below the cliff. You know, falling vertically from that height would at least cause a broken bone or something for an ordinary person.

But... Tomoki below doesn't seem to be an ordinary person. After falling, he still looks full of energy. Jing Chen smiled and rubbed his forehead. The protagonist is indeed the protagonist; even his protagonist aura is so powerful.

According to Jing Chen in the past, surviving a fall from this height would be considered a miracle.

Jing Chen glanced back and saw Icarus talking to Shou Xing. However, Jing Chen couldn't hear clearly at the moment; he could only see their mouths moving.

Jing Chen thought back and realized that since finding Icarus, his attitude towards Icarus had indeed been rather unfriendly, and perhaps a bit too fierce.

Icarus's intelligence is pitifully low right now. Jing Chen feels that even a three- or four-year-old child is smarter than Icarus is now.

Of course, Icarus can't be blamed for this. After all, when he landed that day, his combat abilities, calculation abilities, intelligence, and so on were all sealed. Now, at least for the time being, he won't cause Jing Chen any unnecessary trouble, which is for the best.

As of now, the artificial angel Nymph, model β, hasn't appeared yet. Personally, I feel that once Nymph appears, things will be much easier for me.

Now Jing Chen has to keep a close eye on Icarus, otherwise he's afraid that one day he might miss it and Icarus will fly randomly over the town, which would keep Jing Chen very busy.

As evening fell, Zhishu, Jingchen, Chuyuan, and Icarus returned home.

"I'm back." Tomoki entered the house, put down a backpack, and sat down wearily. "I'm so tired."

Chu Yuan laughed and said, "It's a miracle that Xiao Zhi wasn't seriously injured."

Icarus sat in front of the door, holding a watermelon in his arms, stroking it incessantly. Chu Yuan Icarus: "You brought the watermelon back too?"

Icarus turned around and nodded, saying, "Yes."

"Shall we eat now?" Tomoki walked towards Icarus, wanting to take the watermelon from her.

Icarus clutched the watermelon tightly to her chest, not wanting Zhishu to take it away. Jingchen patted Zhishu's shoulder and said, "Icarus really likes watermelons, but she didn't buy them to eat. If you want some, go buy some yourself."

"I see..." Tomoki said, turning around and sitting back down. "Ah, anyway, I've finished my homework."

Chu Yuan also came over and said, "But all in all, it was like a camping trip, it was really fun." Chu Yuan handed his phone to Zhi Shu, which showed a picture of Ikaros carrying an Arapaima.

Icarus was holding a watermelon, lost in thought. Jing Chen sat down next to Icarus, looking at the sunset, and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"Master, what makes you happiest?" Icarus asked.

Jing Chen smiled. "The happiest thing for me, need I even ask? It's naturally having you by my side. I've told you before, you have to stay by my side. Don't worry too much about the day we part, as your senior mentioned. Because that day will never come. And you, Icarus, what makes you happiest?"

"I...don't know," Icarus said.

Jing Chen patted Icarus's head and said, "It's okay, we can deal with these things later. Right now, the most important thing is to be happy."

"Yes," Icarus replied blankly.

That evening, Jing Chen and Zhi Shu were watching TV when Icarus was writing something on the table. Curious, Jing Chen came over and asked, "What are you doing?"

"This is homework." Icarus didn't even look up, continuing to write diligently.

Jing Chen picked up a card, glanced at it, smiled helplessly, and ruffled Icarus's hair.

To be honest, Jing Chen genuinely believed that Mikako and Shouxing were truly high-ranking members of a cult or pyramid scheme, unmatched in their brainwashing abilities. Even someone as naive as Icarus had been brainwashed to this extent.

Of course, Jing Chen knew that Mikako's methods of brainwashing Icarus weren't all based on words; sometimes she also used some special methods...

Jing Chen took Icarus back to their room to rest. As soon as Icarus entered the room, she started tidying it up. Jing Chen said, "Icarus, you don't have to work so hard."

"It's alright, Master," Icarus said as he made the bed.

Jing Chen suddenly looked up at the sky, where Synapse was located. He could clearly sense a gaze fixed on him from there. Without a second thought, Jing Chen knew that gaze most likely belonged to Daedalus.

Icarus, the creator of the Sky Lord, was sent down to cause destruction. However, it malfunctioned, mistaking the young Tomoki for its master, which Tomoki then used to attack Synapse. Later, due to its overly powerful abilities, the Sky Lord feared it, leading to the sealing of all of Icarus's powers.

This time, Daedalus's act of dropping Synapse was also his doing. His sole purpose was to have Icarus stay with Tomoki in his place, and secondly, to have Tomoki redeem Icarus. However, she probably never expected that Jing Chen would intercept her at this crucial moment.

Jing Chen's lips moved slightly, conveying to Daedalus of Synapse through lip reading: "Don't even try to take Icarus away, or Synapse, including you, will not survive!"
