"It's been a long day without you my friend?"
Hua Wu answered the phone and immediately said, "Damn it! I'm not buying entertainment products!"
This left Jing Yuan completely bewildered. "What? Ji Feng, who upset you?"
"Oh? I forgot to check the notes. What's up?"
Jing Yuan paused for a moment and then asked, "Are you investigating a blond, blue-eyed man?"
Hua Wu said lazily, "I didn't. It was Xing and Qiong who were investigating. I was just playing along. The main thing is that your disciple isn't very durable. He's too weak. He couldn't last long after I started playing with him."
"Are you sure? And Yanqing, my apprentice? Aren't you his master too?"
"Fine, fine, so what? Are you going to capture him? And while you're at it, destroy his coffin containing the god? The dead will return... I advise you not to touch that thing. That thing might be 'Order's' spoils of war in the God War; 'Order' lost itself because of that thing."
Jing Yuan chuckled on the other end of the phone, "No need to investigate anymore. I've already imprisoned that man named Rakshasa in the Dark Prison. He's confessed that he brought the Star Core. There's no need for the Earth Balance Division to waste their time and effort. As for the coffin you mentioned... I didn't see it."
Hua Wu smiled slightly, choosing to skip over the coffin. "But we're really getting into it, wouldn't it be a bit of a downer to suddenly interrupt? Have you prepared your big surprise? Although I saved Luofu as a general, Dan Heng has a share in sealing the Jianmu... and Dan Heng is now part of the train's real estate..."
Jing Yuan paused instantly. "Uh—...you even cheat your own family? Although I did prepare a thank-you gift...for your sake, I'll add one more."
Hua Wu asked, puzzled, "Which item should we add?"
Jing Yuan on the other end of the phone simply said, "You'll know when you get here."
"Lion, you've gone astray."
"Haha, I'm just treating you the way you treat me."
Hua Wu said helplessly, "Uh... fine."
After hanging up the phone, Hua Wu looked up at the sky, where the stars still shone brightly.
"Jingyuan's learned to keep things a secret now... I wonder if Yanqing is still sleeping..."
The backyard of Shence Mansion —
"My body feels so heavy, am I going to die? No, I can't die... I haven't become the Sword Master yet... I can't fall here... There are still so many enemies I can't defeat..."
"I cannot give up here!!!"
Yanqing struggled to get up, looked at the multiplier on the bracelet, and lowered it a bit.
"Under 400 times the gravity, training is barely possible. I wonder where my second master got this thing... It's truly amazing."
He looked around at the array sword lying on the ground. "Hmm? Why is it lying down? I remember this sword was standing upright... I can't figure it out."
Yanqing looked at the high-quality replica of the "Stone Fire Dream Body" and couldn't help but pick it up from the ground. "Huh...why is it so heavy? Uh...ah!!!"
Yanqing unleashed his full aura, making the entire Shence backyard feel like winter had arrived.
Even inside the Shence Mansion, one could feel a slight chill.
“I will remember my second master’s teachings. As long as I train my strength well, once I remove the gravity from the bracelet… I will naturally be able to walk like the wind. Uh… get up… I must accept this gift.”
Yan Qing forcefully raised the array blade, and just as he was about to fall again due to gravity, the super-powered bracelet activated, recharging his limbs and bones.
"I understand the significance of this bracelet now. When I am exhausted but still have faith... it will transform that faith into power... so adjusting gravity back should be no problem."
"Uh—I can't fall..." he said, leaning on his sword like a warrior fighting to the last moment.
If Hua Wu knew, he would only think that Yan Qing was overthinking things; he only bought the insurance because he was afraid Yan Qing would ruin him. He never expected Yan Qing to use the insurance as a charging station.
If he knew, he'd probably praise Yanqing as a genius.
After a few minutes, the dizziness gradually disappeared, and the body's strength surged forth.
"Is my body starting to adapt? I clearly use a sword, so why did Teacher Ji Feng give me a knife just like the one the general uses? Could it be... that a sword's form doesn't matter, even grass and trees can be swords, then this knife..."
"Mouth and teeth!!! This sword has returned like a swallow!!!"
A cold light flashed out and shot towards the sky.
"As expected, the sword is not in its physical form... Wait a minute..." Yan Qing suddenly remembered that his strike would most likely have accidentally injured something.
That streak of light had long since vanished into the horizon, hidden in the clouds. Yanqing could only pray that nothing was flying above the Shence Mansion anymore.
"Hopefully, nothing like a star raft is flying over Shence Prefecture. Otherwise, if the General finds out, I'll get another lecture..."
"Since things have come to this, praying is useless. Let's practice first."
Yanqing began to swing his sword. Before long, he noticed a strange phenomenon: when he swung his sword 1000 times, he would feel a little weak and then have to rely on his willpower to persevere.
Now that he has this power bank, although he can only swing it 100 times under this gravity before he gets exhausted, whenever his will and body are pushed to their limits, his body will inexplicably be filled with strength.
Under such circumstances, he simply cannot temper his will.
He looked at the bracelet and said, "Wearing it, I cannot hone my will; taking it off, I cannot hone my strength."
"I need to think of a way that satisfies both sides..." His eyes swept over Jingyuan's bonsai, which had a red thread tied around its edge.
He instantly thought of a solution: why not just tie the bracelet to the array blade?
Without hesitation, he took off the bracelet and tied it to the Shihuomeng body (high-quality replica).
"Why... is it still so heavy? Hmm... my body feels much lighter. Okay... I'll start with 200 swings, and then gradually increase the number."
Yanqing brandished the array blade in his hand, embarking on a path of self-torture. How gratifying!
[The following is purely speculation]
(I glanced at the Rakshasa's backstory, and combined it with the Light Cone's story, I feel that the thing in the coffin might be related to the Star God. It's most likely related to abundance, such as reproduction and immortality, otherwise, why would they buff Mirror Flow and directly cut down abundance? And there's a saying, "When you don't speak, you are free," which is somewhat like a superficially peaceful order, but don't rush to conclusions.)
(The light cone tells us that this is a deal between the Rakshasa and the coffin. So is it possible that the Rakshasa intends to use its abundant body to revive the thing in the coffin? And there was a line in the game before that said that reproduction will eventually return, and the Rakshasa's ultimate skill also has a line that says that eternal sleep is not the end, and the dead will return.)
Currently, what lies in eternal slumber is immortality, order, reproduction, and pure beauty. The only hint of resurrection lies in reproducing one thing; by twisting the concept of growth within abundance into quantitative growth, wouldn't reproduction then return?
...But what will the Rakshasa gain from this...? I haven't found out. I guessed that, if the previous assumption holds true, at the juncture of fertility and abundance, the hunter delivers an arrow, simultaneously shattering one of the two concepts in their respective destinies. This would simultaneously eliminate both abundance and fertility.
This is why the Rakshasa wanted to see the Marshal.
(It's impossible that something in the coffin possessed his lover, and then he had to find a body for that thing to resurrect it, right?)
Chapter 129 The Day of Disaster on March 7th
Earth Balance Office —
"You're back?" Danheng asked, looking at the figure that suddenly appeared.
Hua Wu's gaze remained calm. "Hmm, where are you in the scene?"
March 7th said, "You've been gone too long. Our performance is over."
Walter added, "While I don't particularly mean to discourage you, there's something wrong with that last line of reasoning."
"For example, if Rakshasa escaped from the dock on a star raft, how could she appear in the image of the mechanical bird two hours later? Besides, that was a military facility; if there was any disturbance, the Cloud Riders would come running. And that Divine Dragon Hero... I still feel it's very abrupt."
"Even if we follow this process, and Rakshasa and Divine Dragon Hero fight for an hour and a half... the Cloud Cavalry will definitely arrive at the battlefield by then."
Walter's long string of additions effectively negates the entire argument.
March 7th was a little discouraged. "Hmm... Uncle Yang is right, that's true! It seems I still have some way to go to catch up with the fisherman."
Danheng, standing nearby, hit the nail on the head: "Is it possible that you're actually not suited to be a detective?"
"Danheng, why are you starting to discourage me too? Can't you give me some encouragement?" March 7th pouted.
Hua Wu looked at Qiong, then at Dan Heng, and then...
Hua Wu started clapping, "Clap clap clap—"
Hua Wu: "March, March, you're the best!"
"Clap clap-"
Qiong: "March, March, the smartest!"
"Clap clap clap—", Qiong nudged Dan Heng beside him.
Dan Heng understood immediately, "March, March, the most powerful!"
"Clap clap-"
Since Xingyi was already having fun, she didn't need to pretend to be a gentleman anymore. "March, March, Great Detective!"
"Clap clap clap—clap clap clap—clap clap clap clap clap clap clap—"
Hua Wu/Qiong/Dan Heng/Xing: "The number one in the world, March 7th!"
A suffocating feeling enveloped March 7th. She wasn't that thick-skinned, especially since there were other staff members at the Earth Balance Division, and she had now become a highly sought-after detective...
Feeling the burning gazes of the staff, she wished she could turn into an ostrich and bury her head in the floor.
"No need for praise anymore, I know what you mean, I can't take it anymore. I will never ask for praise and encouragement again, thank you for helping me get rid of this habit."
On March 7th, she swore that if she ever let these people praise her again, she would eat raw egg yolks.
Walter, adjusting his glasses, remarked, "As expected... I don't quite understand the world of children..."
Hua Wu looked at March 7, who was lying on the table pretending to be dead, and said, "Don't be so discouraged. At least I can tell you that Rakshasa has been caught. He's been chopped into the Humor Prison by Jing Yuan."
Walter asked, puzzled, "When did you find out?"
“Jingyuan just called me. He asked if I was investigating a blond, blue-eyed man. I thought to myself, isn’t that Rakshasa? Then he told me that he had already locked that guy up in the Humor Prison. So... there’s no need to investigate anymore.”
Hua Wu pulled a glass bottle of strawberry soda from a certain space, took a small sip, and asked, "Why is everyone staring at me?"
March 7th found it somewhat unbelievable, "Huh? You didn't use any connections to get Jingyuan to arrest him, did you?"
Hua Wu shook his head. "Impossible. Although Jing Yuan sometimes listens to my advice, most of the time he tells me that this kind of thing cannot be done."
Qiong clenched her fist and said, "I knew that blond guy was no good. Where is that Humor Prison? I'm going to go in and torture him with a baseball bat."
Xing pulled out the bag of Dragon Master edition Dragon Coil Leap, "Why don't we just feed this to him? I want to see just how strong the cosmic merchant's immunity is."
Dan Heng was speechless. He felt he should have caught up with the pace. But to his surprise, when he turned around, these people's thoughts had wandered off to the farthest reaches of the sky again.
Did Jingyuan mention anything else?
Hua Wu said speechlessly, "Yes, he said there was some kind of big gift package, the one I mentioned before. We haven't gone to claim it yet. He said he added something for my sake, but I don't know what it is."
March 7th shook his head, trying to forget what had just happened. "When are we going to collect the gift pack? Wait, where's the general?"
Hua Wu took out his phone and said, "Skywalker, target: Divine Strategy Mansion, offer guidance."
A mechanical voice announced, "Go straight for 200 meters from the Earth Balance Office, then turn left to find the Cloud Riders."
