Danrito, become a consultant for the Millennium Game!

QQ: 8 1 4 9 0 3 7 98

Raising his hands and striking a pose, Danrito displayed his newfound power. "This is a powerful force that only my divine talent can achieve. It's truly worthy of me!"

"Action Alchemist?" Bai Zi blinked, seeming to understand but also seeming not to understand. "Um... could you explain it briefly?"

"Two completely different games are compatible with each other. Their abilities can complement each other's strengths and weaknesses, and merge into a brand new ability—"

Danrito spread his arms as if to embrace the sun. "Let me show you my X (unknown) power, which transcends common sense!"

Without waiting for Baizi and Ayane to react, he reached for his belt, grabbed the medicine bottle-like device on the "Alchemy Player" cartridge, and twisted it.

"Harmony begins!"

"Harmony~"

A warning sound rang out, and the medicine bottle Danrito was twisting began to spin. The unknown potion inside, which had previously only emitted a colorless light, began to change color as it spun. Behind Danrito, a huge cauldron suddenly appeared. Many different medicinal herbs appeared from thin air, fell into the cauldron, and began to stir.

Gudu Gudu~

As the sound of bubbles rang out, the potion in the cauldron was quickly stirred, and then the cauldron disappeared. The small potion bottle on the "Alchemy Player" cartridge was filled with an unknown potion that emitted the green light of life.

"We're lucky. We completed the potion we needed most on the first try!"

Danrito reached out and pulled out the "Alchemist Player" cartridge from the drive, inserting it into the special move holder. "Come on, Ayane-san, let me heal you!"

"The winning move!"

The unknown potion in the small bottle of the "Alchemist Player" cartridge inserted into the special move holder turned into an emerald green energy light and poured out from the card slot of the special move holder. However, it did not converge to the right leg like the usual Knight Kick special move, but went all the way upwards and converged at Danrito's fingertips.

Walking towards Ayane, Danrito stretched out his right hand which was filled with energy. A drop of nectar containing the pure essence of life fell from the fingertips of the god and dripped onto Ayane's forehead.

'Alchemy Critical Droplet!'

The first half was passionate, and the second half was solemn. A drop of emerald dew fell, and a flash of light passed through Ayane's body. Then, a miracle happened.

At a speed visible to the naked eye, Ayane's skinny body quickly recovered, and the surrounding medical equipment continued to restore normal readings, all of which were actual evidence of what was happening before their eyes, proving that Ayane's body was revitalized by Danrito's magic hands!

"Ayane's body... is recovering?!"

Bai Zi couldn't believe her eyes. She opened her eyes wide and tried hard to understand what was happening in front of her.

After Danrito unleashed the "Alchemist Player" cartridge's ultimate move, it wasn't a destructive one, but a miraculous healing power. Danrito withdrew his hand, pleased with the outcome: "Exactly what I expected!"

Baizi nervously watched Ayane, who was rapidly recovering and radiating a gentle light, and couldn't help but shed tears of joy. With anticipation in her heart, she slowly walked to the bedside, calling Ayane's name.

"Ayane...-san?"

“Ah…?”

Ayane, who had fallen asleep due to exhaustion, was awakened by a shot of cardiac stimulant injected from outside her body. This nectar was like the unreasonable little green bottle in the game, treating Ayane's life as 'HP' and replenishing her health in one go, even to the point of overflowing.

Danrito disregarded all the laws of life, the body's recovery period, the speed at which drugs took effect, and all the miracles conjured by modern medical theory and experience. He was pulling Ayane back from the brink of death at the speed of a Formula One car! It was a speed so fast that the Grim Reaper couldn't even see the back of the car!

He could feel the energy gradually filling up his body, and he could even wake Ayane from her deep sleep, just like drinking a large cup of espresso before going to bed, which makes him feel more energetic the longer he sleeps.

The vitality that continuously filled her body continued to nourish Ayane's body. Her skinny limbs gradually became fuller, her dry hair became smoother, and even the dark circles under her eyes disappeared! !

"...Baizi-san, what am I doing?"

Ayane spoke, but her voice was not hoarse at all, but even clearer than before. She didn't look like a patient who had been lying in bed for many days, but rather a healthy person who had just woken up and was full of energy!

"Wow... That's great... That's great! Ayane-san!"

Baizi couldn't bear it any longer and threw himself forward, hugging Ayane tightly. After these days of separation, pain, and sadness, he finally understood how happy and precious the daily life that was once so easy to reach was.

"Baizi-san..."

Ayane also hugged Baizi tightly. Feeling her warmth again, the girl who had just recovered couldn't help but burst into tears: "Baizi classmate...you haven't eaten well these days, have you?"

Gashu~

"People don't come to this world to suffer. Everyone has the right to pursue happiness—"

Danrito pulled out the cassette and showed the game to Ayane, who had just survived the ordeal. A confident smile spread across his face. "And this game was created precisely for this purpose."

27.Alu, when did you come? It’s a nice day today.

"Well, during the time I was lying in bed..."

Ayane, dressed neatly, put on her red glasses again, combed her hair, and put on the Abydos school uniform. But then, the new buildings on the Abydos playground in front of her made her a little dazed.

"Did you, Baizi, build these buildings?"

Shiroko shook his head and extended his palm to Danrito, who was standing beside him. "No, it was this Mr. Danrito who figured it out. A lot of cats that walk on two legs came over and built it."

Ayane had a hard time imagining that scene: "Eh? Cat? Eh... huh?"

"Let me introduce them." Danrito stood aside and briefly explained the functions of the buildings to Ayane: "These buildings were built not long ago, using amazing gaming technology~"

Xiao Tao, who is far away in Millennium Science and Technology Academy: Are you thinking about me?

"This is the prison. The Helmeted Group we defeated earlier are all imprisoned here."

Ayane was shocked: "Ah, huh?"

"This is a greenhouse. It's the only way to grow crops in the desert. Don't worry about water. With four grids, you can create unlimited water."

Wu Lingyi bullies leeks

Ayane was shocked: "Infinite? Huh?"

"For now, we've built these two buildings for emergency use. We've also built an additional warehouse. We'll store the materials we got from dismantling the tanks and the weapons and ammunition we've confiscated."

Danrito pointed at the three buildings in front of him with his chin. These buildings were built using the abilities of the "King of Cats" cartridge and had some in-game features, the kind that... were quite contrary to common sense.

"My advice is, don't try to understand. The more you try to understand, the less you understand. So the less you understand, the more you understand."

Baizi reached out, put his hand on Ayane's shoulder and patted her twice, comforting her.

It can be seen that Danrito was in a good mood because he saved Ayane's life, and even temporarily diluted other gloomy feelings, and she could even joke with Ayane in front of her.

“I no longer understand this word…”

Ayane turned to Danrito who was standing beside her and bowed deeply once again in thanks: "Mr. Danrito, I have no way of repaying your kindness..."

Danrito waved his hand and said, "Then I will reserve you as my employees in advance and you will work like slaves for me."

"Eh?"

"What? Are you surprised?" Danrito looked at the two. "The world of adults is actually much simpler than that of children. The bigger the matter, the simpler it is—as long as it serves your own interests. I came to Abydos for ten million credits. I saved you by the way, so you will come and work for me to pay off my debts, like slaves—don't think you can get away with it by saying 'please pledge your love to me'!"

Hearing these words, Ayane's expression became much more relieved. Facing the setting sun and the desert in the distance, Ayane smiled in gratitude.

"Ah...you are such a cold-blooded and heartless adult."

Ayane smiled as she spoke. The deeper meaning behind Danreto's words was a lifesaver for Ayane, Shiroko, and Abydos. After composing her expression, Ayane bowed again to Danreto. "Mr. Danreto, will you be searching for Serika-san, who was kidnapped by the Helmets, and Hoshino-san, who has disappeared? If possible, please allow us to assist you."

"Rather, this is our responsibility." Bai Zi lowered her head slightly, deeply grateful to the man who came to support Abydos. "Now, please allow us to shamelessly borrow your strength."

"Hahahaha! Sure, sure~"

Danrito crossed his arms, his face filled with wildness. "Let the enemy witness my terrifying divine power!"

Ten minutes later, in the meeting room of the Abydos School Abolition Countermeasures Committee.

The new member, Danrito, naturally took the best chair and stretched out his hand to project the image he had extracted from the little gangster's memory into the air.

"This is the image extracted from the memories of that helmeted group, and the image analyzed here, of the Caesar Group outpost that was handed over to Kuromi Serika."

Danrito unfolded the map he had analyzed. Ayane, watching from the side, showed an expression of admiration. "Mr. Danrito, you've done everything I could. If it were me, I probably wouldn't be able to track it any further than this."

"It's mainly because those thugs don't have any more memories. Tsk, what worthless trash." Danrito snorted. "This Caesar Group has always controlled the intelligence that the Helmet Group can access. The secrets beyond this outpost must be protected by the Caesar Group. If we just ask these thugs, we'll get the information we need. So if we want to get more information, we must go directly to the other side's hometown."

"But we only have so few people right now." Ayane said worriedly, "I can only provide remote support. The only one who can fight head-on is Shiroko-san..."

"I'm a combatant, alright?" Tan Lidou raised his hand. "If you don't believe me, ask her."

"Yes, Mr. Danrito's fighting ability is still quite strong." Bai Zi nodded and said, "The previous battle against the Helmet Group was all due to Mr. Danrito alone."

Bai Zi counted, "Dan Lidou alone defeated dozens of helmeted thugs, as well as more than a dozen tanks and armored vehicles. That's about what we could have achieved when all five of us were there."

"Is that so?" Ayane was stunned for a moment: "If that's the case, then... I can really look forward to it, right?"

While Danrito, Ayane and Shiroko were discussing the next tactics, four figures from 68 Convenience House walked along the street buried by wind and sand and came to the gate of Abydos.

"This is it, right? The place my employer mentioned..."

Holding a sniper rifle and wearing his coat as a windbreaker, the president, Lu Bamo Alu frowned, revealing a fierce expression that was a bit like a villain, but that was only because his eyesight was poor and he was unwilling to wear glasses so he squinted his eyes.

"Yes, that's what the employer meant by attacking here."

With her black and white hair tied in a ponytail and a silenced pistol in hand, Kayoko, the brains behind 68 Convenience House, confirmed her target and said helplessly, "But isn't attacking other schools directly a bit too much?"

"Ahaha~ Isn't this the evil deed that Alu always talks about?"

In stark contrast to her petite figure, the little devil with a side ponytail wielded a powerful machine gun. Mutsuki leaned over with a grin and said, "Attacking other schools is a truly heinous act, no matter where you look! I've prepared a lot of bombs for this operation!"

"Ah wow wow wow... Would someone like me do something as big as attacking a school..." The girl with short black and purple hair looked nervously at the school in front of her while holding a shotgun and muttering: "Blow it all up, blow it all up, blow it all up..."

"Um... Haruka, we don't have to blow them all up..." Kayoko said tiredly, covering her forehead with her hand. "As long as we can capture all of Abydos's living forces, it will be fine. Considering the information given by our employer, we may only need to deal with one person."

"And the rewards are generous! We can even move into a new office!" Alu laughed heartily. "Ah~hahaha! As long as I finish this, I'll earn a ton of money! Both fame and fortune!"

28. Semi-circle interview with the victim

In the convenience store office, Kayoko was sitting on a chair, rubbing her eyebrows, looking quite tired.

"...If I had known things would turn out like this, I shouldn't have accepted this commission in the first place. While the commissions that Convenience House takes on aren't usually serious, this kind of thing is truly... something that could never have been anticipated."

"Hmm? You ask what we are doing now?"

Kayoko flashed the documents in her hand to the camera. "As you can see, after being captured, all the staff at the convenience store signed employee contracts. From then on, they will become non-staff employees of Dream Game Company. I say non-staff employees, but I mean temporary workers who are on call at any time and don't get paid."

"Alu? Ah...that guy...looks like he's found a new target. I don't think it's very reliable, though."

--------

Time returns to the present.

"Why is the reconnaissance intelligence on the site different from the original?"

As the convenience store's intelligence officer and brains, Kayoko naturally had access to information about Abydos High School ahead of time. However, while it was called information, the actual information she had was little more than a floor plan.

The dilapidated state of the Abydos campus was no secret. Ever since the devastating sandstorm and the Caesars Group's involvement, Abydos has steadily deteriorated. The money raised from the loan is a drop in the bucket for desert control. The school buildings have been engulfed by sandstorms, students have dropped out or transferred, and the campus land has been steadily encroached upon, practically reaching a point of collapse.

"It is truly sad that Abydos, with its rich history, has fallen to this state simply because of a sandstorm."

Kayoko shook her head, confused by the shifting information before her eyes. "According to the information my employer sent me, Abydos High School... shouldn't have those buildings on the playground?"

Kayoko frowned as she looked at the buildings that didn't fit in with the dusty old buildings around them, and even their style was different from that of Abydos itself.

"This is completely different from the intelligence. I just heard that Abydos was attacked by a wave of helmeted troops, but it doesn't look like Abydos has suffered much damage..."

Cautious Kayoko wanted to confirm further: "My advice is not to rush in so hastily. Something unexpected might have happened. If that's the case, we might need to reassess the risk factor."

"What's there to worry about?" Mutsuki smiled as he carried his handbag. No one knew how much explosives this silver-haired little devil had put in it. One could only judge from the protruding shapes on the surface of the package that the amount inside was much more than usual - enough to blow up the entire teaching building.

"Just use firepower to push it over and nothing will happen~"

"Huh, huh, huh?! Is that so? Do you need me to start setting the bomb first?" Haruka hugged her shotgun and said something very dangerous, "People like me are willing to go through fire and water for Master Aru..."

"No way! Listen to me!"

Kayoko was getting irritated, and when she did, her expression would become quite frightening. With this villainous look, Kayoko had been questioned by the Valkyrie police on the street more than once. With this expression, Kayoko was clearly worried about the plan that was beyond her expectations.

As the only think tank in charge of personnel matters in 68 Convenience House, Kayoko is simply an old mother with three children. After all, the three remaining people in the entire convenience house are a fool, a fun-loving person, and a dark terrorist, which is really worrying.

"It's okay, Kayoko!"

Alu, standing by, waved her hand, striking what she considered the coolest, most villain-like pose imaginable, confidently. "There's no commission we at 68 Convenience House can't handle! As long as everyone works together, no matter how difficult it is, we can overcome it! That's the essence of 'One Evil a Day'!"

"President, even though you really want to say something cool, it seems like it's irrelevant... forget it."

After finally checking her own equipment, Kayoko nodded, "Then let's go. Although I have a bad feeling, I still want to get this over with as soon as possible."

With Haruka, armed with a shotgun, leading the charge, the others followed behind her as the four members of the convenience store stormed into the Abydos campus in their usual formation. Just as the information provided by their employer described it, the Abydos campus could only be described as dilapidated.

The school was originally run by only five people, and after the few remaining people left, it was left with only one student trying to support it. The feeling of being unable to do anything was evident everywhere.
