Fighting you is like being in jail.

But why are they only wearing underwear?

Oh no! Now is not the time to be distracted!

However, by the time she thought of retaliating, it was too late. Leng Chang appeared in front of her, raised his hand and pressed it on her abdomen, and a flash of electricity cut off her energy.

Poof!

The commander collapsed instantly, while Leng Chang stood mercilessly in the dark corridor, silently walking towards the database.

"The database is doomed today! I said it!"

He left behind a powerful figure wearing only his underwear, disappearing into the darkness.

Then there is no more.

The bunker's database was reduced to dust by the relentless physical formatting, with no possibility of being revived.

After doing all this, he didn't forget to turn on the power so that everyone could automatically start up.

He kicked open the hatch, leaped out, and experienced the powerful sensation of breaking through the atmosphere.

Riverside on the grassland.

2B, 9S, and A2 stood on the grass, looking up at the sky, completely disoriented. Leng Chang's sudden departure had caught them off guard, leaving them unsure of what to do.

"Huh? Something's about to fall!" 9S keenly noticed the light falling from the sky.

"Could it be that the human has returned?" 2B stared wide-eyed in shock.

"This is humanity? They can break through the atmosphere without any protection, even reaching cosmic velocity..." A2 felt a chill run down his spine. Humanity was incredibly powerful; it was unimaginable how terrifying past human wars had been.

A little while.

Boom!

Amidst the tidal wave that erupted upon impact with the ground, Leng Changqiang stood powerfully, his entire body radiating a high-temperature white light.

The three members of 2B arrived immediately after Leng Chang landed and were utterly shocked.

"As expected of a human being!"

"Is this over?"

"How are everyone in the bunker...?"

The three raised different questions. Although they were worried about the bunker, they wouldn't think much of it if it was an order from a human.

Leng Chang exhaled a puff of white mist and said in a muffled voice, "Don't worry, the people in the bunker are fine. I just destroyed the database."

"That's good..." 2B visibly breathed a sigh of relief, then respectfully asked, "Human, what should we do next?"

"Let's find a place to make some corrections first. Next, you'll need to know some secrets."

As he spoke, Leng Chang took a step forward, leaving the three of them with a strong and powerful back view, though his underwear was rather conspicuous.

"Human! Won't you consider putting on some clothes first?"

"What?! Holy crap! Where are my clothes?!"

Realizing what had happened, Leng Chang hurriedly looked around for his clothes, completely unaware that he was only wearing his underwear.

In other words, everyone in the bunker recorded the scene of him attacking the bunker while wearing only his underwear.

Oh no! It's spicy!

P.S.: I was going to take leave, but after taking leave I felt better...

Chapter 305 Some brothers, yes!

By the time Leng Chang realized that things had spiraled out of control, it was too late to say anything.

This is no longer a situation that God can save us from.

Imagine if a video of someone running around in the air went viral globally, and that person went to God and begged Him to help them get rid of it. What would God do?

God: There's this kind of fun? Let me see!

At worst, God would earnestly tell that person to live in another world, saying, "I'll open a channel for you, and the reason for your application is that the whole world knows you, Luo Ben, can only live in another world."

We can't just reboot the world over something like this, can we?

"No-!"

Realizing that the situation was beyond repair, Leng Chang looked up and shouted, his voice filled with a sense of duty.

Seeing this, 2B quickly went over with concern, "Human, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

"No, it's just that sometimes I feel so powerless when facing certain things."

Leng Chang stood in front, his back view appearing extremely desolate, and at the same time, there was an indescribable melancholy.

"?"

2B couldn't understand what was happening. He blinked at Leng Chang and then focused on taking notes.

A little while later, by the river.

A2 gathered some firewood and made a simple fire.

The group sat around the fire to rest. Leng Chang had also calmed down. He realized that the whole "snail-like" thing was no big deal. As long as no one knew who he was, there wouldn't be any problem.

I certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to go around the world and announce that I'm the man who runs around like a snail.

So, everything is still in the planning stages.

Now it's time to start looking into what's next. The bunker is no longer a threat; the only problem is the human meeting at the lunar base.

As expected, the system was located there, but it was impossible to determine whether the system was remotely controlled or controlled at close range.

"Has the Human Conference ever made you do anything strange?" Leng Chang asked the three seriously, already guessing that the system would definitely not do nothing and would definitely be carrying out things that some people could not understand.

Upon hearing this, A2 frowned first. She gazed thoughtfully at the leaping flames of the bonfire ahead and said:

"...Data. The data being scanned and uploaded is flowing in the wrong direction. It's not just a simple bunker server...something is intercepting it, or rather, greedily absorbing it. And that...so-called 'resource recycling' mission..."

Her voice carried a hint of disgust, “The target location only contains data about our own structure and… self-destruct protocols. It’s like giving us a physical exam, or marking us.”

Upon hearing this, Leng Chang frowned, quite certain that this was the path to system upgrades. He wasn't sure what kind of system it was, but he felt he had grasped the key.

"What about 2B and 9S? Have you guys been on any weird missions lately?"

He turned to look at 2B and 9S, who were also lost in their memories, and quietly waited for their answer.

2B stiffened for a moment. She paused for a few seconds before replying in her usual steady voice:

"...The mission did indeed have anomalous parameters. However, orders from command have the highest priority. Questioning is not the responsibility of YoRHa members. Even the strangest missions must have a reason..."

“…”

Alright, as expected of you.

That makes sense, 2B has that kind of personality too, otherwise she wouldn't have carried out so many missions to execute 9S.

It's just really unpleasant.

Leng Chang didn't press 2B further, but turned to look at the last 9S, who was deep in thought.

Then 9S frowned and said, "There are a lot of strange things happening. You could say our recent missions have all been strange. We just need to arrive at the designated location and scan the surrounding area, and that's it."

"This data seems to have absolutely no tactical value. It's like... supplementing map details? But our database is already complete. In fact, the data in the database is more comprehensive than the scanned results..."

His words made Leng Chang nod thoughtfully, and he even grasped the key point more clearly.

Arrive at the location, put down the device to scan, then move to another location...

Holy crap! A sign-in system?!

Leng Chang's eyes widened suddenly as he looked at the three members of 9S and asked seriously, "Have you always used the same scanning device?"

“…Eh? Yes, 2B and I each had a scanning device.” 9S paused, then looked up at Leng Chang in surprise.

Having received the answer, Leng Chang looked at A2: "Have you done similar tasks before?"

A2 nodded and said seriously, "We did it, but the scanner was moved later because of the machine lifeform extermination mission. It seems they'll be the ones taking over the mission after that."

"Do you still have that scanner with you?"

“We’ve already been teleported to the lunar base,” 2B said seriously.

"alright."

Leng Chang nodded, thinking he would be able to get the scanner, but now it seemed he had already determined the system's purpose: to sign in.

It's fine if it's not a sign-in session; the situations are pretty much the same.

The goal is now clear: to force the hidden system to come out.

They can be eliminated instantly as soon as they appear.

However... then again, what situations could cause the system to act recklessly...?

The core of the world.

Upon realizing this, Leng Chang's eyes flashed with a sharp light, gradually becoming more intense.

It's a bit risky, but it's the best thing right now.

We need to go back; the little monster used the world's core as bait.

Thinking of this, Leng Chang stood up and said to the three of them, "You wait here, I'm going to get something."

"Ok?"

"Where are you going? We can help you carry it."

The three of them quickly asked, their eyes filled with seriousness as they looked at Leng Chang, who had stood up.

"No need, you shouldn't go over there..."

Leng Chang said something, and ripples spread around him. He turned around and left without looking back.

The three people left behind stared in shock at the ripples in the space, frantically recording the process and analyzing the situation within it.

"Is this a spatial distortion?"

"This is what humans are?! They can even distort space?"

"There's absolutely no record of this in the database... We really do know too little about humans."

The three were surprised and excited, feeling that the mystery of humanity was slowly being understood by them.

......

Blue Star.

The moment Leng Chang returned, he summoned the little monster.

"What's wrong?" The little monster looked at Leng Chang strangely as he stood by the deserted pond in the park.

"I need to borrow the World Core. The system over there is hidden there, and it will definitely come out no matter what, as long as the World Core appears," Leng Chang said earnestly, his voice full of certainty.

"Ahem!" The little monster coughed and said regretfully, "No, the world core can't understand this world. If we really take it away, this world will collide with another world, and I don't need to tell you the result, right?"

"Oh...doesn't that mean I'll have to help the system find the world core when I get back?"

"No need. Under normal circumstances, the core of the world cannot leave this world, but special circumstances are different."

"What special circumstances?"

"It's basically that the world was shattered, but the core of the world is still intact, so it can be taken to other worlds. However, this is unlikely in normal circumstances, since the world and its will are broken, and the system has no self-control. The core of the world will definitely be devoured."

"Yes, brothers, yes!"

"??"

Upon hearing Leng Chang's answer, the little monster's eyes widened in surprise. "Really?"

"Have!"

Leng Chang grinned, then instantly thought of that woman, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.

Kurumi Tokisaki's left eye!

Although I wasn't sure what it was before, I'm now absolutely certain.

If it's not the system, and it's not the will of the world, then there's only one answer: the world's core!
