Genshin Impact: Teyvat Travel Log

However, while the top eight were no longer a hope, they all set their sights on the ninth and tenth places!

[March 7th: Good grief! Isn't this just pointless? Why do I feel like everyone's gotten so fired up? Laughing and crying emoji]

[Tsunade: Don't say it! You really shouldn't say it! Watching them eat makes me hungry!]

[Gu Jing: Indeed, on one hand, it's a feast for the eyes, and on the other hand, 0.6 seems really tempting. But why didn't Gan Yu's wife participate in the competition? @Gan Yu?]

【Huh? Gan Yu paused for a moment, her pretty cheeks turning bright red: No, I can't actually eat that much...】

[Xingbao: Miss Ganyu, you're being too modest. If you're worried about gaining weight, we actually have a special remedy here. *doge.jpg*]

[Gu Jing: Not only that, controlling hormones with medication isn't good for the body. In comparison, the cultivation methods of immortal cultivators are actually better, because they usually have a body-strengthening effect. How does one strengthen the body? Simply put, it's about consuming cellular energy to become stronger. So, Gan Yu's wife doesn't need to worry about gaining weight at all.]

Gan Yu: Hmm...

Ugh, Gan Yu couldn't help but feel her cheeks burning after the two of them had exposed her secret.

What people didn't know was that Index, Tohka Yatogami, and Itsuki from the quintuplets, who were able to watch the live stream but couldn't participate in the competition, were drooling with envy. They wanted to participate in this eating contest too!

Chapter 437 Kaguya of Houraisan: What about our Gensokyo? Kei-kun, don't forget about it! @Gu Jing!

三星美食的分数是1~9分、四星美食的分数是10~99分、五星美食就是100~999分。

The higher the score, the larger the portion size, and the easier it is to feel full.

On the sunny beach of Chengehu, Queen Medusa transformed into a white giant serpent, and the Silver Dragon King maintained his dragon form. The Saber King, Hinata Hyuga, Akagi, Kaga, Mitsuri Kanroji, Yuyuko Saigyouji, and others were like bottomless pits.

My stomach didn't feel bloated, and I ate faster and faster. In less than five minutes, the first place score had already broken the 10 mark!

In the end, within the allotted half hour, Saigyouji Yuyuko narrowly defeated Saber with an outstanding score of 148 million!

Hime Yue Liang, who gained an advantage with her Elemental Spirit Body, came from behind to grab third place. Akagi and Kaga ranked fourth and fifth respectively, Queen Medusa ranked sixth, Silver Dragon King ranked seventh, Hinata ranked eighth, and Kanroji Mitsuri ranked ninth!

In the competition among Kiana, Paimon, Ning Rongrong and others, Little Paimon went all out and managed to snag tenth place!

However, compared to the top eight whose bellies didn't swell, their digestion speed wasn't quite up to par. Kanroji Mitsuri, Kiana, Paimon, Ning Rongrong, and others all looked like they were pregnant, and their bulging bellies drew laughter from Yingmei and the others.

The competition has now concluded, leaving only a banquet and free time. Seeing how lively the competition had been, Gu Jing added a comment during the banquet:

说是从今往后，组织会专门成立一个活动策划部门，周末比赛的最高奖励可以任选6星物品；月度比赛的最高奖励就是任选7星物品；季度大25比和年度大比就是任选8星和9星！

In an instant, cheers erupted like a tidal wave, one after another! The atmosphere in the entire Chenge Pot was incredibly lively!

******

After a pleasant weekend, the world of anime and manga returned to a relatively peaceful routine, with no particularly powerful anomalies detected for several days in a row.

Strange and bizarre items with rather peculiar functions have been popping up one after another.

For example, the cursed ring, when not in use, is a silver ring with a ruby ​​set in it. When ready to use it, the ruby ​​will turn into a blood-red eye. Making eye contact with a person will allow you to control them.

At first, the duration is relatively short, but as the number of times increases, the control time also becomes longer and longer, and after waking up, the patient has no memory of what happened during that time.

It's safe to say that this is an absolute must-have for hentai anime fans; even doujinshi artist Eriri was stunned.

However, it is not without its costs. First, using it will consume your lifespan, and the longer you control it, the greater the cost. Second, once you put on the cursed ring, ordinary people cannot take it off and will only sink deeper into its clutches.

Its most useless aspect is that its ability ceiling is extremely low; it can only control ordinary people, and ultimately it received the designation [D-005].

However, these strange items are not all useless. For example, there is the "Eight-Leaf Clover Medal," which can make people lucky for a short period of time.

Although using it may bring bad luck for a while, it can also help people achieve their wishes through a series of coincidences!

After testing, its luck growth limit even reached 8 stars, which means its luck range can cover an entire galaxy!

On Tuesday, Gu, who had obtained the [Eight-Leaf Clover Medal], made a wish: "I want to obtain a treasure, and the stronger the treasure, the better."

As a result, while sitting at home, he suddenly had a premonition of good fortune. Following this feeling, he adjusted the live broadcast camera to the position where he sensed the opportunity. The scene presented in the live broadcast was outer space, where an uninhabited planet full of dust suddenly exploded due to factors such as earthquakes, tsunamis, and meteorite impacts!

In the firelight, books emitting a dark purple glow flew out and, by sheer coincidence, passed through a wormhole, traversed a distance of 3 light-years to reach Earth, and crashed down directly in the direction of Summer's coffee shop!

However, the misfortune that accompanied the good fortune was also very strong. Mount Fuji exploded directly, and a strange creature with great potential was born from it. It was a giant bird with a scarlet body. It was a bird of cognition that could live in illusions. Not only could it devour the consciousness of intelligent beings to grow, but its power would also continue to increase as more people recognized it!

However, how should I put it? Gu, who possesses the authority of [Knowledge Law], is His nemesis, especially since He has only just been born and has not yet grown up!

The result was obvious: the Crimson Bird Lady, with containment number [UR-001], was immediately and forcefully suppressed by Gu Jing upon her birth! In the shattered Mt. Fuji area, dark red [Law of Consciousness] chains bound her firmly!

What's interesting is that—such a massive event as the Mount Fuji explosion obviously couldn't be kept secret, so the official explanation was that it was a terrorist attack carried out by Middle Eastern terrorists. As a result, the terrorists, eager for fame, all went online to declare: "I did it! It was me!" I heard these guys even started fighting each other!

But then another question arises: is everything predetermined, and is misfortune really that simple? The answer is obvious! No!

The Crimson Bird had just been suppressed by Gu Jing!

At the location where the treasure was born, a black hole quietly formed, swallowing nearly 100,000 stars before disappearing!

This is clearly a cruel joke of fate. It can't harm Gu Jing himself, but it can make people lose money. A total of 100,000 stars is worth nearly 100 trillion energy points. Compared to the entire Milky Way, it is nothing, after all, the Milky Way has more than 400 billion stars!

However, for Gu Jing and for the world of crossover anime, it was a loss, which was equivalent to paying money to avoid disaster.

[Liang Bing: Fate is truly a strange thing. We were just celebrating one minute, and then it pulled another stunt!]

[Black Tower: I'm actually quite curious about the level of this treasure, that it could cause such a huge crisis!]

[BeiDou: Yes, yes, yes! It's normal to encounter risks, but we still need to consider whether we're going to lose money!]

******

Back at the Hive base, using Nasita's [Dream Authority], the Crimson Bird was sealed within a dream, allowing her to calm down before discussing compensation with her.

Gu returned to Summer Cafe and sat by the window with Robin in his arms, examining the treasure they had found.

The book is titled "Stageplay: Destiny-is-predetermined".

Surprisingly, it is a truly remarkable treasure. Whether it is a real name or a pseudonym, whether it is a disguise or a true appearance, or even hair, birth date and time, or items used, to put it more bluntly, as long as there is a cause and effect with it, the user can control its fate from behind the scenes by writing a script!

Not only does the book's effect have a maximum capacity of 8 stars, but it can also continue to grow, making its strength comparable to a simulated star chart!

[White Yaksha: Good heavens! The cursed ring controls consciousness, the eight-leaf clover medal is related to luck and misfortune, and the predetermined stage play can even manipulate other people's fates from behind the scenes, with strength comparable to a simulated star map! I believe what you said before! The fusion of multiple worlds, this is truly insane evolution!]

[He Xi: That's definitely the feeling. Although the process is accompanied by danger, the ever-growing foundation is also visible to the naked eye. At its current level, it can already nurture 8-star treasures. It's unimaginable how far it can evolve and what kind of treasures it can nurture in the future! 943]

[Ke Qing: But no matter what, the situation of not knowing when a crisis could erupt is still too dangerous. If we could have a world administrator like 'Heavenly Principles' or 'Heavenly Way', would the situation be any better?]

[Gu Jing: That's natural, which is why I thought of getting "Type-Moon" over first, since sometimes I get quite overwhelmed when I'm working on it alone.]

[March 7th: So here's the question, you finished the Temple of Time last week, and today is Wednesday, and you still haven't done anything. Are you slacking off again? You little rascal.jpg]

[Gu Jing: How could that be? Isn't it because the Magician and the Twenty-Seven Dead Apostles are too scattered? Searching for them one by one would be too troublesome, so after thinking about it carefully, I asked Gaia to help me a little, to gather all twenty-seven Dead Apostles together, and then we can wipe them all out in one fell swoop. Judging by the time, it should be about time today.]

[Silver Wolf: "Today again?" Let me tell you, if you keep saying that, no matter how much we try to explain it away, we can't clear your name! (Smirking)]

[Yingmei: Pfft~ It does give the impression of someone who's slacking off, gets reminded of something, and then suddenly decides to slack off again.]

[Gu Jing: How can you call slacking off a spur-of-the-moment decision? It's just going with the flow! But then again, after we finish *Type-Moon*, the next step is *Honkai Impact*, so everyone should be mentally prepared.]

Slightly taken aback, Theresa and the others couldn't help but smile. They had already prepared for this kind of thing!

[Kaguya Houraisan: And what about our Gensokyo? Kei-kun, don't forget about it! @Gu Jing!]

[Gu Jing: I can't forget it, I can't forget it! I still want to throw a party in Gensokyo.]

[Yukari Yakumo: Pfft~ I'm really impressed by you.]

Chapter 438 The Feast of the Twenty-Seven Dead Apostles

Trading trillions of energy points for a book called "Destiny's Mandate," which can alter one's fate, is a deal with a strength of 8 stars and can continue to grow. Whether this deal is profitable or not is hard to say, but Gu Jing feels that he has made a profit.

Regardless, those trillions of energy points still made Gu Jing feel a pang of regret, and he did some maneuvering before heading to the Type-Moon world.

Having left the world of crossover anime and entered a dimensional space, Gu browsed through the records of the narrative layer and quickly locked onto the scene of the black hole devouring 100,000 stars. When Gu casually waved his hand, the entire scene was like a video being rewound.

Exploring upstream from downstream in the river of time, before the black hole devours the stars, use the power of [Time] to press the pause button!

He retrieved each of the 100,000 stars swallowed by the black hole, and finally returned to the time before the black hole was born, erasing the event at its source! The misfortune that should have accompanied this lucky event was thus abruptly stopped!

[Liang Bing: What kind of miser is this? Even if misfortune strikes, you won't get a single penny out of me! Hahaha!]

[Gu Jing: But actually, the energy required to do this is more than a trillion trillion. However, I can absorb energy quickly. Excess energy is released in this dimensional space and various worlds, and I replenish it every second. So, how should I put it? It's much faster than the rebirth of these 100,000 planets.]

[Yukino: So here's the question: recreating 100,000 stars should only require a trillion units of energy, so why did you insist on using this method?]

[Yae no Miko: Pfft~ How can a person stay rational all the time? Besides, there's an old saying, "If you fall down, you get up from where you fell down." I think that's understandable. (Pink-haired fox grinning mischievously.jpg)]

[Silver Wolf: All I can say is, this is what it means to be fiercely competitive all your life! (Smirking)]

Seeing Gu Jing open his mouth but ultimately choose to remain silent on the live stream screen, Gokou Ruri and the others burst out laughing.

Unexpectedly, Gu Jing uploaded a song called "Father" on the spot, saying that he thought of this song after seeing Yinlang talk about being strong all his life. There is a line in the song that says "a father who is strong all his life". He also tagged Yukino, Shenzi, and Yinlang, asking them to sing it like that next time. Shenzi readily agreed, and Yukino and Yinlang couldn't help but blush, which also caused everyone to burst into laughter.

*******

Back in Chaldea in 2016, Gu Jing was thanked by Dr. Roman. Because of Gu Jing, he could now relax and be a normal person. He even wanted to muster up the courage to meet Magical Merry in person.

Upon hearing this, Gu Jing, who was trying hard to suppress his laughter, looked complicated. Even Jeanne d'Arc and the others, who knew that Magical Merlin was the same person as Merlin, couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh.

It's not that I haven't thought about telling him the truth, but there are some things that you can't explain to someone unless you've seen them with your own eyes. It's better to let him experience it for himself, so that he can know the truth and the people in the live stream can also get some juicy gossip!

But Gaia delivered bad news regarding the Twenty-Seven Dead Apostles: the children completely ignored her.

[March 7th: Speaking of which, I have a question. You're in 2016 now, but weren't a large number of the Twenty-Seven Dead Apostles already dealt with by Arcueid and her friends in the story of *Tsukihime*? How did Gaia manage to contact them?]

Gu Jing: This involves the origins of the Dead Apostles in the Type-Moon universe, which specifically begins around 14,000 years ago—

Predatory planets, which prey on other planets, came to the solar system from the universe. With their immense power, they defeated the gods of Earth and caused great damage to Earth and the Moon. They were eventually defeated by an unknown holy swordsman.

However, the damage caused to Earth by the predation of astral beings will take time to heal. As those who have read FGO should know, the humans in the world of Type-Moon began to part ways with the gods in the Uruk era. This was actually the result of the Counter Force adjusting things behind the scenes, because the magical energy in the air was no longer suitable for the survival of the fantasy species.

So how can the Fantasy Species continue to survive? The Counter Force entrusted this task to the fairies, asking them to create the Otherworld.

Dragons, griffins, orcs, and other creatures were allowed to live in the inner world, while the gods of various mythologies returned to the embrace of the restraining force.

Around 2000 years ago, around the time the Gregorian calendar was just beginning, most of the fantastical creatures had already left the land.

Humans distinguished themselves from other plants and animals through their intelligence and gradually solidified their position as the primates of the Earth. However, humans frequently wage wars, and it is always the Earth that suffers constant damage. Gaia has also become afraid of humans.

Just then, the crimson moon approached Gaia and said to her, "As a substitute for you who cannot move, I will protect you."

The two parties entered into a pact that, when Gaia deems it necessary, she will create a race called the True Ancestors, modeled after the Moon King.

This is the origin of the True Ancestor, but in reality, Zhu Yue actually wanted to dominate the Earth, which led to the story that followed.
