Zongman: The wrong person on the ground, double Shenwei at the beginning

These two idiots were having a pretty good time here in the original timeline.

After finishing their meal, everyone said goodbye to Anya, who was biting her napkin and on the verge of tears, and returned to the Garden of Stars together.

Lily hugged Rhodes reluctantly before leaving, turning back every few steps, preparing to return to the Red Room in Valca to put the experience taught by Lyra into practice.

Rod summoned Lunova and the other three to a small room by himself.

"While I'm away, I hope Lunova and Anya can take Chun and Quan to explore the dungeon. How much they gain isn't the most important thing; the main thing is to hone their abilities."

Lunova crossed her arms, her eyes sparkling with confidence.

"Shifting the focus from humans to monsters, huh? That's a new way of life, I guess. Leave it to me!"

A hint of curiosity flashed in Chloe's eyes, and her ears perked up discreetly.

"Okay, meow. Cats have been curious about the dungeon for a while now, but how do we update our stats, meow?"

Lunova couldn't help but agree.

"Should we ask the goddess Astraea for help? To have the goddess of justice update our stats? I'd be flattered, but something feels a little off..."

"about this."

In response to their questions, Rod simply smiled mysteriously.

He beckoned to the two women, signaling them to come closer.

Lunova and Anya hesitated before stepping forward, and finally squatted down somewhat shyly.

Rhodes bit the index fingers of both hands and then placed them on their foreheads.

A slight burning sensation came, and the next moment, a faint divine light flowed, and the two women felt a jolt in their minds.

Immediately afterwards, a string of sacred silver characters appeared on the back of their hands almost simultaneously, seemingly quietly describing their ability parameters and growth trajectory.

The two of them stared in disbelief, their mouths agape.

If they hadn't been able to clearly sense the changes in the power within their bodies, they would have thought that Rhode had used some kind of illusion!

Lunova asked, dumbfounded.

"You're not a hero reincarnated... are you actually a god reincarnated?!"

Rod simply smiled faintly.

"Just consider it one of my abilities."

But the shock was not over yet. After the contract was formed, the two girls were given demi-human powers by Rhodes.

The shock of feeling one's bloodline and soul being bestowed with new changes that transcend human limits is simply indescribable.

That's an incredible ability to resurrect the dead endlessly!

They got it so easily?!

Finally, Lunova and Chloe staggered out of Rhodes' room as if sleepwalking.

Her face was flushed, and her eyes were unfocused, as if her soul had just returned to her body.

If someone on the street saw them, they would probably think that Rhodes had just done something terrible to them.

The next day.

Knowing that Rhodes would be back soon, the girls didn't bother to say goodbye to him formally this time.

The four-person group of Lunova, led by the experienced 3.8 Nize, had already set off to explore the dungeon with great enthusiasm.

The others also set off on patrols.

The goddess Astraea squinted and smiled as she adjusted Rhodes' collar.

Come back soon!

"kindness."

Rhodes has now gotten used to being treated this way by Astrea.

Within the clan, almost everyone sees her as a mother figure.

Rod suddenly asked himself a question with some curiosity.

"System, how many wish points are needed to copy all of Astraea's unsealed power?"

The system's output nearly made him lose his composure.

Points do require a lot of effort, but it's not to the point where he can't accumulate them even if he tries his best.

The problem is, if he's targeting her for the exchange, then he might as well not go to this world at all...

Discarding his random thoughts, Rhodes turned to look at Noin and Leyana, who were already dressed in modern clothes, and took their hands.

"Then let's set off."

"Phew... I'm a little nervous."

"I am ready!"

Rhodes silently recited the instructions to the system in his mind.

"System, accept the prayers from all realms and take Noin and Leyana to the world of [I Level Up Alone]."

[Level A prayer accepted.]

[Noin and Leyana have been detected as your subordinates; no Wish Points are required.]

[System updated to version 2.1.]

[After traversing worlds, you and your companions will automatically acquire the corresponding status in that world.]

Have a pleasant trip!

-

H country, S city, Yixin Hospital.

Cheng Xiaoyu, covered in wounds, sat quietly by the hospital bed, looking at his mother who seemed to be asleep, and gently took her hand.

"Mother...."

Narcolepsy that cannot be awakened.

This is a new symptom that emerged after many portals suddenly appeared in this once peaceful world.

Chapter 80: Xiao Yu's Awe, Target: Shadow King! (Please customize and vote!)

Narcolepsy sufferers are not only unable to wake up from their sleep, but their life force is also consumed at an extremely rapid rate. Therefore, they need to use a special device made of magic crystals to maintain their lives.

However, magic crystals are very expensive; keeping a machine running for a month costs nearly 30,000!

Without being a hunter and receiving medical support from the Hunter Association, a young man in his twenties simply couldn't afford hospital expenses!

As an E-rank hunter, Cheng Xiaoyu had to risk his life every time just to barely pay the fees.

If things continue like this, I might die in the dungeon one day.

And even if one can maintain this state but never wake up, what difference is there between that and death?

In the ward, the smell of disinfectant mixed with the smell of medicine, creating a suffocating atmosphere.

Cheng Xiaoyu sat in the chair, his forehead buried in his palms, his shoulders trembling, and his voice low and hoarse.

"Isn't there any other way...? As long as Mom can get better, even... even if it costs me my life..."

The door was suddenly pushed open, and a familiar, clear voice broke into the somber atmosphere.

"Brother, you really are here!"

Cheng Xiaoyu hurriedly wiped away her tears with the back of her hand and forced a smile at her sister.

"Xiao Ya, did you get out of school so early today?"

Cheng Xiaoya's sharp gray eyes swept suspiciously over her brother's arm, and she frowned in displeasure at the new wounds.

"Brother, did you sneak off to the dungeon again?"

"Cough cough cough... Did you come to see me because you need something?"

"Eh..."

Cheng Xiaoya's pretty face showed a helpless expression. She waved her little fist and pouted.

"If it weren't for the fact that a super handsome hunter wanted to see you today, I wouldn't have let you go so easily!"

Cheng Xiaoyu paused for a moment, then pointed to his own nose.

"Huh? A very skilled hunter... looking for me?"

Cheng Xiaoya nodded vigorously, her eyes filled with admiration and longing.

"Yes, he's an S-class hunter from Country Z!"

"W-what? An S-rank hunter?"

Cheng Xiaoyu practically jumped up, his eyes filled with panic.

Why would such a big shot, whom he had only seen from afar on TV shows and hunter rankings, approach him, a nobody of rank E?

He asked urgently.

"where?!"

"It's right here."

Cheng Xiaoya smiled and stepped aside to make way for the person behind her.

A black-haired, black-eyed boy who looked only seventeen or eighteen years old slowly walked into the ward.

He had a handsome appearance, a clean demeanor, and was spotless.

What's most striking about him isn't his handsome appearance, but rather his deep, penetrating eyes that seem to see through everything.

The moment he greeted us with a smile, the atmosphere in the entire ward seemed to freeze.

"Hello, Cheng Xiaoyu. You can call me Luo De."

"Hello, hello..."

Cheng Xiaoyu subconsciously lowered his head, not daring to meet Luo De's gaze, feeling extremely restrained.

The powerful aura emanating naturally from the other party gave him a suffocating feeling, as if he were facing a dungeon boss.

Every nerve in his body was on high alert.

The boy in front of me is not from the same world as me!

Is this the aura of an S-class hunter...?

Rod looked at him with interest, his gaze thoughtful.

With Cheng Xiaoyu's current humble appearance, who would have thought that he would one day become the world's top Shadow King?

However, now that he has come, the other party's fate will inevitably be changed.

He turned around and gave Cheng Xiaoya a gentle smile.

"Xiao Ya, could you please show my two companions around the neighborhood?"

"It's their first time visiting H country, and they're quite interested in it."

Cheng Xiaoya's eyes lit up, and she nodded quickly.

"Okay! Leave it to me!"

She was also curious about what kind of people this S-class hunter's companions were.

Rhodes nodded to Noin and Leyana outside the door, signaling them to act on their own for the time being.

Soon, Cheng Xiaoya smiled and started chatting with the two girls before leaving together, leaving only the two of them in the silent ward.
