"Is that so? That's fine... Can I choose who to fuse with?"
"No problem." This weakling couldn't even carry a few Xiao Suiyangs, so Jiang Yan naturally wouldn't dwell on it. With a wave of his hand, he let the other party pass the test happily.
Seeing that Ah Zhuo had gotten away with it, Xi Yan, who was good at calculations, naturally said in his heart:
"Since it's to save my own kind, then I naturally have no choice but to do it. Besides, if someone from my kind helps me with the resonance calculations, the efficiency will be greatly improved. I believe Luo Fu will also be looked up to by the humans on that immortal ship."
This overt hint made Jiang Yan laugh and cry, so he could only appease her:
"Don't worry, Xiyan, with your abilities, I'm sure both the Jade Palace's Penzhi Gewu Academy and the Imperial Divination Department will place you in high esteem and will definitely not let anything get into trouble."
"That being the case, I'm relieved."
After getting a satisfactory answer, Xiyan no longer had any objections, and only Weiba was left to face Jiang Yan's gaze.
He represented Liaoyuan's lofty will, and after that humiliating defeat, he no longer wanted to merge with his former companions. Otherwise, even if he had just merged with a few Xiao Suiyang, he would not have been on the verge of extinction and was lured away by Huo Huo with his tail.
However, unlike other companions who had not experienced the battle of Suiyuan, just looking at Jiang Yan's left arm made his tail want to drill into Huo Huo's body and die, so how could he dare to say anything harsh?
"Well... for Huo Huo's sake, could you... Huo Huo, please help me speak up for me?"
While pushing Huo Huo ferociously with his tail, Wolf looked at Jiang Yan with a face full of flattery.
There is no way. The original arrogance has long been washed away by Huo Huo and turned into ordinary arrogance. When it encounters a higher decisiveness and follows its heart, and also encounters the god of death who can truly destroy it, how can it not be cowardly?
Huo Huo felt angry when he saw the tail that always showed off to him. He was obviously a tail, but he couldn't wait to wag his tail to Jiang Yan.
Where's that guy's usual arrogance when he bullies me? Serves him right! If you don't dare to plead, neither do I.
Thinking of this, Huo Huo turned his head to the other side and began to study the texture of the rockery next to him.
After learning Huo Huo's attitude, Jiang Yan naturally wouldn't be polite. A faint green-yellow light flickered on his left arm, and he snorted in dissatisfaction:
"Ok?"
With just this sound, the flames on the tail immediately shook out into ripples:
"The work of the Ten Kings is Huo Huo's work. Of course I have to support Huo Huo's work. Don't worry, I will make them obedient."
With the unanimous approval of the contractors, a bizarre job fair for Suiyang, held in the Demon Suppression Tower, was officially held, witnessed by the rumor-busting team and the Ten Kings. A group of prisoners imprisoned in the Demon Suppression Tower, using the Ten Kings' communication technique, were introduced to the benefits of merging with the contractors outside the tower one by one:
"I'm working at an amusement park now. If you're into playing, you'll have plenty of fun, excitement, fear, and exhaustion. If you enjoy these emotions, you can come find me, but if you're half as strong as me, forget it."
"I'm going to work with a bunch of anthropologists. If you merge with me, I can fully enjoy the joy and pain brought by wisdom, thinking, and divination. However, I have to be the one who takes the lead. If you don't like it, don't merge with me."
"A human brat got me a position as the instructor of the Cloud Cavalry. My duties are the same as when we were tricked thousands of years ago. The humans said they wouldn't lock us up again unless we burned all our hosts like they did last time. I don't care if it's true or not. Having a good fight is enough. If you're not afraid of being tricked again, come find me."
"Me? I have nowhere to go, and there's only a little wimp by my side who can only lick but not eat. He's willing to starve with me... Then whatever!"
There are no routines or lies. After all, most of the time, the communication between Sui Yang is to directly copy the information in the body and then transmit it through the interaction of energy. Any disguise and processing is meaningless, so this introduction is also full of sincerity.
However, completely contrary to the rumor-refuting team's expectations, faced with the freedom that was readily available, although most of the smaller Sui Yang didn't mind merging into a powerful individual and chose their favorite "contractor", the vast majority of Sui Yang with their own personalities were completely uninterested in the freedom that would come with fusion:
"Freedom? How can there be freedom if you've been assimilated by others?"
"Xiyan, you still want to command us? You just use us as a calculation every day. Resonance, resonance, resonance, resonance. I would rather stay in that damn furnace and bake the scrap metal of the factory than merge with you!"
"Melting Torch? You martial arts madman, don't you think we haven't been beaten to pieces yet? Look at you, have you been beaten again? Who are you trying to drag us into a fight this time?"
"Ah Zhuo? Goodbye! You freak, you actually enjoy feeding on children's emotions! Who else but you can handle such intense emotions that change by the second?"
Under the sarcasm and ridicule of the big fragments, the job fair soon came to a standstill, which also made several contractors unhappy.
You bastards, you think we like to integrate a bunch of you trash? You deserve to be tortured by this big villain!
Thinking of this, several contractors who had successfully reached the shore all looked at Jiang Yan, waiting for this ruthless master to teach their companions how to make will-o'-the-wisp.
Sure enough, Jiang Yan walked to the front of the Demon Suppression Tower and gently tapped the tower with his left index finger:
"Hello everyone, I'm Jiang Yan from the special task force handling the Suiyang escape incident under the Ten Kings Division. I believe some of you have seen me when I was part of that big eyeball. But if you haven't seen me, it's okay. Other Suiyangs can help share some information."
As soon as he finished speaking, the noise coming from the Demon-Suppressing Tower immediately decreased by half, and a few seconds later, the only sound left in the entire Demon-Suppressing Tower was the tiny crackling sound of burning flames.
At this time, Jiang Yan continued to say with satisfaction:
"The Ten Kings Division has understood your opinions just now. We now have two solutions: The first is that if you don't want to join as a whole, you can choose to join in small groups. I happen to know some fire magic, so I can help Ah Zhuo disassemble and fuse them for free. Believe me, it will be quick."
There was no response, only the crackling of the flames grew faster and louder.
"The second option is that since everyone is a fragment that controls certain aspects of Liaoyuan's nature, they naturally have their own specialties. If you can help Xianzhou and promise not to possess or absorb emotions recklessly, Xianzhou will certainly reward you generously. Luofu now has tens of billions of residents, and no matter what kind of emotions a meritorious official desires, we can specifically allocate them."
Soon, a large number of trembling voices came out from the tower:
"Second type!"
"I choose the second option!"
"We all choose the second option!"
The longer one lives, the more afraid one is of death. After the battle at Suiyuan, the courage of these Suiyang people had long been shattered by Jiang Yan. Well, to be more precise, they were frightened by the illusion behind him. How could they dare to let him "break down into pieces"?
What's more, Jiang Yan's second plan is really too tempting.
The reason these fragments have such strong self-awareness is likely because they have been poisoned by human emotions and have developed fixed "tastes". In this case, even if they can hunt at will, how easy is it to find a host that completely matches their taste?
Customized hosts, specifically to manipulate emotions? So, we, the Suiyang clan, can also order food in a restaurant?
No matter what kind of bombs are hidden behind the sugar coating, at least the sugar coating is really sweet!
Therefore, the vast Sui Yang, who were loyal to their own desires and fears, all knelt down in a blink of an eye, and had their specialties and preferences registered one by one by the staff of the Ten Kings Company, waiting for an offer of their own.
Who doesn’t understand the principle of eating one meal and then having a full meal?
As this group of Cloud Cavalry instructors, Ghost Fire supercomputers, Ghost Fire investment experts and even Ghost Fire actors began to serve Luofu one after another, the rumor-busting team finally turned the Sui Yang clan from a strange story into a rumor, and then into the truth, successfully completing its historical mission. After a grand celebration banquet and farewell dinner, they collectively handed over their tasks and returned to normal life.
Well, except Jiang Yan.
On the night he completed the mission, Yan Qing invited him to the Shen Ce Mansion. Jing Yuan, who was rarely buried in his paperwork, was waiting for his arrival:
"Xiao Jiang, I heard that your study abroad career was interrupted because your ID was revoked by Yukong Siduo?"
When Jiang Yan heard Jing Yuan's words, he immediately became excited.
What does that mean? Because I'm good at catching ghosts, I can get my sentence reduced? Isn't that awesome?
Stay calm! Don't get agitated!
After repeatedly reminding himself, Jiang Yan managed to suppress the corners of his mouth, which were harder to suppress than AK, and said politely:
"Yes, but this is purely my own fault due to my youthful recklessness. I'm sorry to trouble you elders."
But how could he hide this little bit of concentration from Jing Yuan, who was over 800 years old? He just shook his head slightly and didn't keep the secret any longer:
"I've already communicated with Yukong. The ban on self-reflection has been lifted starting today. You can continue your study tour. Young man, it's time to go out and see more."
Jiang Yan, who had been counting the days to continue his journey of searching for his destiny, finally got what he wanted. He was so excited that he almost jumped up and said excitedly:
"Thank you, General, for your mercy!"
However, after hearing Jiang Yan's words, Jing Yuan's expression became strange. He looked at Jiang Yan with a subtle look and said with emotion:
"Extraordinary mercy? Not really. It's just that there are too many people who want to get to know you lately. I, General Luofu, can't handle it anymore, so I have to send you away to avoid the limelight."
Without waiting for Jiang Yan's response, Jing Yuan picked up a pile of documents and explained tiredly:
"This one comes from Yao Qing, who wants to recruit you as his wife."
"This one comes from Zhu Ming, who wants you to be his adopted son."
"This one comes from Yuque, wanting to see you."
"And these are from a few other important people who are unable to travel and want to see you."
"There are also tens of thousands of petitions and protests sent to me, the general, and hundreds of thousands of letters forwarded by Mr. Danheng, both with good intentions and malicious intent."
The more Jiang Yan listened, the lower his head dropped, and his face turned redder. Finally, he was so ashamed that he wanted to bury his head in his chest.
The hard work was a pleasure for a while, but the aftereffects accumulated, and Jiang Yan couldn't imagine how much trouble he had caused General Jing Yuan in front of him. He could only apologize honestly:
"How could I have deserved such protection from the general..."
Even for the sake of Tianbosi, General Jingyuan has done too much for me. How can I repay this favor?
However, Jing Yuan just waved his hand:
"Don't overthink it. It was the Ten Kings who protected you before. You should thank the Jackdaw Judge instead.
"I'm old and can't afford to cause trouble. If only one person wants to find you, I'll hand you over. It won't be a bad thing for you anyway. But Xiao Jiang, you're alone, so how can they share it? Rather than offending the rest of them, it's better to send you away quickly. Wait a year or two, and then you can come back after I've dealt with them."
Huh? So this temporary worker position is so useful?
It was not until he heard Jing Yuan's words that Jiang Yan realized that he had passed the assessment of the Ten Kings Division without knowing when, and that they had silently given him protection.
I should really thank Judge Jackdaw, who has a cold exterior but a warm heart.
"In that case, I will respectfully obey your command."
After understanding all this, Jiang Yan certainly would not continue to stay in Luofu to cause trouble for Jing Yuan, and chose to run away immediately without hesitation.
"Have you decided where your next stop for your study tour will be? Among the group of people who want to find you, some of them are really troublesome. Yalilo No. 6 is not a good place to take refuge." Even with Jing Yuan's identity, he couldn't help shaking his head when he thought of the style of those people.
Where to go? How do I know where to go? At this time, I can only ask the almighty Shield Immortal, no, Arm Immortal.
After a brief pause, Jiang Yan said:
"The Black Tower Space Station outside the Azure Star. Since I'm on a study tour, I naturally have to experience this sacred place for learners. I hope the title of Genius Club can bring me some peaceful study time."
Hearing the word "peace" which was completely incompatible with the little guy in front of him, even Jing Yuan, who was calm and composed, couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly. After a long time, he agreed:
"Learn from peace of mind...a good thing."
--------
The second volume is finished, congratulations!
Stay tuned for Volume 3 – Oops, I’ve been entangled by a fool!
Oops, I've been harassed by the Immortal Boat people!: Postscript to Volume 2 and Hot Questions in the Comments Section
First, let me report on the results of the product launch. The first order was 500, which was a complete failure.
But don't worry about this little thing. My last book also had this miserable performance when it was put on the shelves, but I still wrote millions of words. I definitely won't cut it. Don't worry, just keep reading. As of now, it has 2000 words. I believe that as long as I keep writing seriously, it will pick up sooner or later. There is no rush.
In terms of plot, Xiao Jiang and his friends cause a commotion on the immortal boat in this volume, but are finally escorted out of the house and begin their journey to pursue their destiny. This is perfectly normal, as so many people have high hopes for him. Even if he wants to continue living in this peaceful place, the invisible hands behind him will push him away. But rest assured, those who push will always be pushed back, and that day will not be too late.
The next volume will unfold on Yalilo 6. Studying in peace? How could such a good thing be possible? Countless unexpected guests will fill what Xiao Jiang thought was just a passing stop with joy and excitement. Stay tuned.
Well, it’s time for the hot questions and answers in the comment section:
1. Why is the update so slow?
This is a bit heartbreaking. Who doesn't want money? I also want to write more! The more you write, the more money you can make. If you write less, what's the point of just having high subscriptions?
But this is all I can do for now. If I want to break away from the usual fan fiction process, I have to come up with something interesting. Writing 5000 words a day is already making me anxious. I will try my best to keep practicing. After all, I have only been in the industry for two years, so there should still be room for improvement, probably.
At least next month, I will definitely be able to update more. After all, I was seriously ill this month and spent two whole weeks in the hospital going back and forth to get medicine and IV drips. I don't think next month will be less than this month.
Of course, the more important reason is that next month has 31 days! That’s way better than the 30 days in this month, right?
2. I want to see Pinocchio!
Don't worry, after the Black Tower Space Station volume ends, it will be Pinocchio. Otherwise, what else? Should I write about Screw Star?
3. I can’t keep up anymore and want to keep reading.
With this number of subscriptions, please be kind and try to catch up. If you have any comments, you can let me know in time. I am a person who listens to advice.
4. Why is the protagonist so impulsive at the beginning?
My only relative is gone suddenly and inexplicably. It would be strange if I wasn’t anxious!
Of course, I didn’t handle it well. I have rewritten the second chapter. Interested readers can take a look at it again.
If you are still not satisfied, I can rewrite it if I have the chance, as after-sales service for genuine readers.
5. Why is “the inferior stone of the city builders” described as more powerful than Topal’s cornerstone?
The world of Bengtie is dominated by the Star God. Abundant God can bless you with a piece of cheese or destroy a planet.
Whether it is a bad stone or a good stone that fell from the Amber King, it is meaningless in front of the Amber King's glance. Even if the Amber King looks at the coal, this piece of coal is more noble than any cornerstone.
Of course, a single glance wasn't enough for Xiao Jiang to defeat the Keystone version of Toppa. But with Ester, representing two geniuses and the daughter of a major shareholder, personally here, how desperate could Toppa be to continue his powerful attack? The project belonged to the company, but the future was his own.
Well, the results are dismal, and it’s not easy to write a new book. If you think the story is good and want to continue reading it, please help recommend it and vote for it.
See you all at the end of Volume 3!
