After searching the nearby alleys carefully without any results, Shirasaka finally entered the dark place in the forest park with some regret. Compared with the bustling scene outside which was still brightly lit even at night, this place seemed particularly quiet.
Even under the cover of night, the already dim light made it even more difficult to see things nearby, but Baisaka could still see the courtyard surrounded by thorns and roses in the moonlight. In his eyes, this was an absolute treasure trove. It was a pity that he did not have an admission ticket to enter this scene for the time being.
Maybe when I can get in, my lightning shield wand will come in handy.
Pinching his chin and taking a look at the courtyard that looked particularly strange under the moonlight, Shirasaka gave up the idea of getting closer. After making sure that no one had discovered that he had entered the darkness, he walked into the depths of the darkness.
Generally speaking, few people would believe that someone could enter the Ever-Animal world in the physical body without any protection. However, Ichinose Kagamikashi had known the truth with him. The sentries responsible for monitoring the Rose Garden used the use of barrier talismans to determine whether anyone had entered. Therefore, it would be difficult to detect someone like Shirasaka who directly entered in the physical body.
Besides, who would walk in the dark for no reason? Especially around the extremely dangerous Rose Courtyard. Even if they knew that the things inside might not be able to come out, no one dared to guarantee it.
It was precisely because of this that Shirasaka chose to place his first Moon Well in such a place. Otherwise, such a large Moon Well would be easily noticed no matter where it was placed if it could not be moved.
Only in the constant darkness, ordinary people generally would not come in. Even if someone discovered his own moon well, it would become reasonable if placed in the constant darkness.
With this idea in mind, Shirasaka finally pressed the button to build the Moon Well in an inconspicuous corner outside the Rose Garden.
As his gold coins and wood were consumed, Shirasaka felt as if he was being carried along by some force, mixing with the surrounding trees and soil, and being stirred along with them by a strange force.
Fortunately, Shirasaka already had experience collecting wood at night, and he had already developed a certain resistance to this kind of spinning. So after less than two minutes, along with the green light that Shirasaka turned into being thrown out, a five-meter square green well appeared at the location that Shirasaka had just designated.
The moment he saw the entity of this thing, Shirasaka clearly realized that his choice to throw it into the darkness was obviously the right one. Even a moon well is so big, it can't be hidden anywhere, right?
Not to mention that if we want to build other larger buildings in the future, the role of Chang'an in expelling idlers will be even more important.
People who can see the darkness will naturally not be surprised by things like the Moon Well. In fact, the only people who really need to avoid the sight are ordinary people who know nothing.
As soon as the Moon Well was built, the first thing Shirasaka did was to rush to the wellhead.
This thing comes with 100 points of well water the moment it is built, which is just enough to test some of the things he expects.
When Shirasaka reached the top of the Moon Well and looked down at what looked more like a large pool than a well, he suddenly had an urge – if he could transform it into a swimming pool, it would be just the right size…
In theory, if you just dig a hole big enough, build the Moon Well in that hole, and fill it with mud, it can be turned into a pool, right?
Thinking of this, Baisaka tried to get some soil from the side and placed it next to the Moon Well. Then he found that the water in the Moon Well was still rising, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
Or is it that my imagination is constrained by the game? The terrain in the game cannot be changed because of the game setting. It doesn't seem to be a difficult thing to change the terrain in reality, right?
So theoretically speaking, I can build a whole large basement or something, and hide all kinds of buildings underground. It doesn't seem like a problem at all?
After figuring this out, Shirasaka suddenly felt enlightened, but these were issues to be considered later. His focus at the moment was to experiment with the effects of the well water.
During the time that Shirasaka was lost in thought, the water in the Moon Well was filled up at a speed visible to the naked eye. If it were in a game, it would take about two or three seconds for the water to recover a little bit of mana, which was a snail's pace. But in reality, this speed was very impressive.
After all, a night in reality lasts for more than ten hours, which is enough for it to be filled up countless times.
It was precisely because of this that Shirasaka was thinking about whether he should find a way to prevent the well water from being wasted. Otherwise, it would always be full, and he would have nowhere to drink it. Wouldn't that be a waste?
He first cast a holy light at an open space, and after consuming 65 points of his magic value, Baisaka set his sights on the moon well beside him. As a thought arose in his mind, most of the water in the well naturally disappeared, and the part of his magic value that had been consumed was instantly restored.
Very good, this aspect of the game is very well restored. You can restore your mana with one click, without having to drink the well water yourself. Otherwise, Shirasaka looked at the well, which was not much smaller than a fish pond. By the time he finished drinking all the water in the pond, let alone restoring his mana, he would have been bloated to death.
Since I can use it at will, the question now is whether this well water can play a role after being brought out of the Moon Well.
Shirasaka took out his thermos, went to the wellhead and filled it with well water, then carried it and left the Moon Well.
The water in the cup glowed with a faint blue fluorescence in the dark night. It did not lose its luster because it was out of the range of the Moon Well. Shirasaka could still feel the power contained in it.
After using the Holy Light spell once again to free up some mana, Shirasaka picked up the thermos in his hand and drank the well water in it in one breath.
It has a refreshing taste when it enters the mouth, and there is no other taste. It feels just like normal water. The only difference is that when he actually drinks it, Shirasaka does not feel any fullness in his stomach, as if it was absorbed out of thin air the moment he swallowed it.
And his own magic value also recovered slightly by a high point at an almost invisible rate.
——The good news is that this thing does seem to be effective even without the Moon Well, but the bad news is that without the assistance of the Moon Well, this thing has to be drunk directly.
What's even more outrageous is that with this amount of recovery, Shirasaka would probably have to get a sprinkler truck to follow him to ensure that he could enjoy the feeling of restoring mana during the battle. Otherwise, even if he found a large kettle to hold it in, it seemed that he could only restore less than ten points.
Well, if you can free up an equipment slot and get a water tank filled with well water, then you can consider it. About two cubic meters of well water is roughly equivalent to 100 magic points of the Moon Well. In other words, you can almost use it as a large blood bottle that restores 200 health points, or when your health is full, it can restore 50 magic points to yourself.
Thinking about it this way, it doesn't seem unacceptable. After all, for me, this is equivalent to a blood potion that can restore my health to full.
It takes quite a while to inject it, but at least it works, right?
Moreover, Shirasaka pinched his chin and looked at the well water in front of him, and a bold idea came to his mind.
Even a single life value is extremely precious to ordinary people, right? Theoretically, if you drink enough, this thing can be sold as a life-saving miracle drug, right?
——The prerequisite is that the effect of this well water can be effective on people other than yourself.
Chapter 122: Unexpected Gains
After finding a way to use his backpack space to fill a whole grid of Moon Well water, Shirasaka looked back at the Moon Well which was full again after just a few minutes. Before he could confirm whether the well water could be used by other people, it seemed that all he could do was to leave it here for the time being.
It seems that it is possible to develop it again after the experiment is completed. In any case, I think Ichinose Kagami and Kitami Natsuka will be very happy to have such a thing to restore power. Especially the latter, a magical girl who needs special power to replenish herself, she can't refuse this thing no matter how you think about it.
As for how Shirasaka could store so much well water without such a large container, that is normal. Just like storing gravel before, he could just treat two cubic meters of well water as one unit. Wouldn't that solve the problem?
It might be a little troublesome to take it out, but at least I can take it away.
After finishing all this, Baisaka clapped his hands, and then he found some leaves and branches to hide the entire Moon Well. Although he was unable to completely cover it, it would be difficult to find it without careful searching.
After all, not many people would have the leisure to wander around in such a dark space, so it is not easy to find this moon well.
Besides, Baisaka had tried it before, and his own Moon Well was displayed on his small map. He could even obtain a view within a range of seven or eight meters near the Moon Well with just a thought.
It is equivalent to installing a camera on any unit he built, so Shirasaka can detect anyone who wants to steal his things at the first time.
It has to be said that this inherited the characteristics of the game and is still very beneficial to Shirasaka. At least he doesn't have to worry about someone secretly tampering with his Moon Well after he leaves.
Seeing that the place had been almost cleaned up, Baisaka did not stay for too long. Although the population in the upper right corner changed from 5/0 red to 5/10 green, the freed-up population space did not bring him much impact.
The most important thing is that for the time being, he does not have any good population units to train, so even though he still has some resources left, he has no other use for them for the time being.
With a regretful sigh, Shirasaka left the ever-dark Rose Garden directly. The most important thing at the moment was probably to experiment with the effect of the water from the Moon Well. He didn't know if Nanami Mio was asleep. If so, he could go find her and try later.
After making the next plan, Shirasaka quickly rushed back towards his home. This trip did not take him much time, so if he rushed back at this time, he should still be in time.
Sometimes, when you no longer care about something, it becomes more likely for it to happen.
Just like when Baisaka came, he searched carefully but didn't find any monsters. When he didn't want to care about these things anymore and just wanted to go home to experiment with the effect of the water from the Moon Well, a figure who was also moving between high-rise buildings in the moonlight like him immediately attracted his attention.
Are there so many Spider-Man fans in Kamihama? Why do they all like to walk on rooftops?
The moment he noticed the other party, he quickly stopped his movements and concealed his breath. Shirasaka looked at the figure jumping nimbly under the moonlight and couldn't help but complain in a low voice.
Judging from her body shape, this should be a young woman, but the problem is that Shirasaka has never seen a girl who can glide between floors like a bird relying on the wings covering her body.
Is she a monster? Or a member of the Magical Girls' Club? Or... someone from the Hidden Words Cult?
Because she needed to hide her body, Shirasaka could not see the other person's appearance very clearly. In addition, she was wearing a hat covered with gauze on her head, which made it even more difficult for Shirasaka to determine the other person's identity.
Therefore, Shirasaka was left with two choices: one was to ignore the other party's existence and go home to continue his experiment; the other was to follow him and see who the other party was.
Without even a second's hesitation, Shirasaka decisively chose the latter. He could experiment with the effects of the Moon Well at any time, but if the person in front of him ran away, he would really run away.
What if it was a monster that had just escaped? Wouldn't that be a complete waste of experience? Even if it wasn't a monster, Shirasaka wouldn't have let it escape so easily just to satisfy his curiosity.
Wearing a shadow cloak, Shirasaka followed the black shadow that kept shuttling between the floors very stealthily. The opponent was very fast. Even though Shirasaka had six points of agility, he could only make sure he didn't lose the shadow.
This also indirectly illustrates the opponent's strength. Putting aside other things, the speed alone is enough to make people feel difficult.
Frowning, Shirasaka realized this and didn't know whether this was a good thing or not. The good news was that if the opponent was an enemy, the stronger the opponent, the more experience he would be given, but the bad news was that he had never dealt with speed-type players before.
Compared to those monsters who rely on brute force, once the speed is faster than his own, it means that he is likely to be in a passive state. If he wants to fight back, Shirasaka is really not used to it.
What's more, there are not so many players with only one subject in reality. People who can support such a fast speed generally cannot be too weak in strength. Just by looking at the opponent's back, Shirasaka was a little unsure whether he could really defeat the opponent.
But it's not like he'll lose a piece of meat, right? It's hard to say if it's just a fight, but he has other little tricks. As long as he holds Shenslee in his hand, Shirasaka doesn't believe that there is really anyone who can take the initiative better than him.
Following closely behind the opponent, Shirasaka was ready to fight with him. However, when he found that the opponent's route was obviously leading to the orphanage in Kamihama City, Shirasaka's already frowned became even more difficult to relax.
He silently took out the kitchen knife from his backpack, and Shirasaka squinted his eyes to look at the dark shadow in front of him that was sneaking into the orphanage quietly.
Although the other party's identity is still unknown, coming to a place like this at this time doesn't look like he's going to do anything good, right?
As a child who came from an orphanage himself, Shirasaka didn't really hate this place. Many things that seemed too cruel to outsiders were simply due to the pressure of reality.
Ignorant orphans will be bullied here, and children like Jiuchong Mozi will be isolated. But for these orphans who may not even have enough food to eat, this can be attributed to the influence of the environment.
Following the black shadow into the orphanage, Shirasaka, who had not stepped into the place where he had lived his entire childhood for the first time in a long time, did not feel any nostalgia. After all, the memories he left here were not really that good.
However, he would not hate this place for this reason. Besides, many children were innocent, and putting these children in danger was not something he could do.
It would have been fine if he hadn't seen it, but even though he did notice it, Shirasaka's conscience still wouldn't allow him to leave as if he hadn't seen anything.
The black shadow seemed to have come here with a clear purpose from the beginning. It disappeared from the moment it entered the orphanage, so much so that Shirasaka was a little curious about what the other party was doing here.
Since he became conscious, this orphanage has not been a place where there is any flow of water, nor are there any messy secrets. As a child who has lived here for so many years, Shirasaka has a lot to say about this.
To put it bluntly, the staff here are just workers who are paid to do their jobs. Although they can't provide much affection to the children, they don't abuse or exclude them. At least that was the case at the time.
At this moment, Baisaka looked around and still didn't find that this place had changed much from when he left. The orphanage was always very quiet at night. The children had no entertainment activities, so all they could do at night was go to bed early.
Cautiously tightening the shadow cloak around her body, Shirasaka was unable to detect the other party's intentions for a moment. He only knew that she had sneaked in here, and all he could do was to follow his memory and grope his way through each room.
No matter what the other party was doing, he absolutely could not tolerate the act of attacking a child. It could even be said that for a human being with normal values, this was the bottom line that was unacceptable.
Soon, Shirasaka realized the weirdness of this orphanage. Although this time is the time for the children living here to rest, isn't it a little too quiet?
Apart from the heavy breathing, Shirasaka couldn't even hear any other movement. You know, how could a child of this age really sleep at this time? Even if they were resting, could it be that the staff on duty in the orphanage also went to bed so early?
When Shirasaka arrived at the door of the guard room and saw through the window the guard who seemed to have fallen asleep in his seat for some reason, he realized that perhaps the reason why everyone in the orphanage fell into a deep sleep was not that simple.
Chapter 123 Why is it you?
Just when Shirasaka was feeling confused, a burst of singing coming from the second floor of the orphanage immediately attracted his attention.
Even in this situation, there is still singing, which must be a bit strange.
After carefully checking that the orphan and the security guard downstairs were just asleep, Shirasaka followed the sound of the song. Judging from the voice, the singer should be a woman, and the specific singing was more like the kind of murmur without specific words when coaxing a child to sleep.
But through this tune, Shirasaka could still vaguely distinguish that this should be from a lullaby. He lacked musical talent, so being able to distinguish this was already very good.
Following the sound, he came to the second floor of the orphanage. Shirasaka was very familiar with this floor. After all, he spent the first few years of his time travel on this floor. Generally speaking, this was also the floor where very young orphans lived.
Then, Shirasaka was even more confused as to why the black shadow came here. Judging from its previous actions, it was clearly trying to hide its identity, so why did it start singing again here?
Approaching the source of the sound with deep doubt, Shirasaka finally saw the person who sang. To be more precise, it was an old acquaintance of his.
Looking at the woman who was wearing a black feather straw raincoat, even with a straw hat, Shirasaka could still make out her face shape from such a close distance. Coupled with her plump figure that even the straw raincoat could not hide, her identity was obvious.
——Kurosaki Yui, Shirasaka’s former boss, what is she doing here?
Looking at the black shadow in front of him who was hugging a sleeping child less than one year old, shaking her body constantly and trying to feed something into her mouth, Shirasaka had to put back the kitchen knife that he had already pulled out temporarily.
What's the situation?
He knew that Wu Lu Yu Yi's identity was not simple, but the question was, what on earth was going on? She stayed up late at night and sneaked into the orphanage just to coax the children to sleep?
But the problem is, doesn't she already have a daughter named Wu Lu Xiao Cheng? Raising a naughty child like that wouldn't be enough to bother her, right?
Looking at the actions of Urusagi in front of him, Shirasaka, who did not realize her malice towards these orphans, became more and more unable to understand why she did this.
He had previously speculated that Wu Lu Yu Yi might be some kind of bird monster. After all, various details seemed to indicate this, but her current actions really made it difficult to understand what she was doing.
After hesitating for a moment, Shirasaka moved closer and confirmed that the child she was feeding was only holding a bottle in his mouth. Then, Shirasaka could only sigh decisively and choose a more direct way to solve the problem.
"Sister Yuyi...what are you doing?"
After coming out of his invisible state, Shirasaka directly chose to ask the woman in front of him. Instead of guessing for a long time without getting an answer, it would be better to just ask her directly to confirm it.
Anyway, Shirasaka is now almost 100% sure of the identity of the person in front of him, so why not do it?
However, contrary to Shirasaka's expectations, the expected scene of meeting old friends did not happen. Instead, what responded to him was an unexpected attack from the figure in front of him.
Almost in the blink of an eye, Wu Lu Yu Yi arrived in front of Shirasaka. One of her hands was still holding the child, but in the other hand, she had a weapon similar to a long-handled umbrella. While Shirasaka was greeting her, the weapon came down directly on his neck.
Well, at least in this case she is still just thinking about knocking me out instead of killing me, which means that she is at least not a bloodthirsty monster now?
Looking at Wu Lu Yu Yi who had appeared in front of him in the blink of an eye, Shirasaka was still thinking in his mind why she was showing mercy at this time. Maybe she had some difficulties?
As they got closer, Shirasaka finally confirmed the identity of the karuga-feathered youkai. After all, the ornament she had originally thought was a feathered raincoat was completely connected to her body upon closer inspection. As for her scarlet eyes, it was even more remarkable; it seemed like every youkai had the same eye color.
Seeing Wu Lu Yu Yi's eyes clearly through the veil on the hat, Shirasaka knew why she would attack him actively. Her lifeless eyes clearly showed that she had lost her self-awareness and turned into a monster that only acted on instinct.
At least you haven't thought about killing yourself, right?
She used a kitchen knife to block the long umbrella that was about to hit her neck. Based on the outfit of Wu Lu Yu Yi and her weapon, Shirasaka had a rough guess about her true identity. It can only be said that being a otaku in the previous life had its advantages, as one might have been exposed to all kinds of messy knowledge. Her appearance obviously showed that her prototype was closely related to the legendary Gyuhuo Bird.
If I remember correctly, this kind of monster has a special affection for children? That would explain her current actions.
"Sister Yuyi, wake up. If you don't wake up, don't blame me for beating you awake."
