Chapter 954 Running away (12)
Regarding this doll, it wasn't that Su Lin wanted to keep its appearance, but rather that the rancher had come for it from the very beginning. As a result, after the resonance was completed, the divinity flowing out of the 'Thus Spoke Zarathustra' layer all originated from it.
Anchored to eternity, the bloated and deformed rancher evolved from a reflection into reality, and this image should be the record etched into the world.
Later, the rancher, who was the crystallization of the concept, walked into the abyss of God's throne and was instantly captured and refined by Su Lin.
The nearly complete Abyss God Throne was severed by Su Lin using Divine Silence and placed within the Abyss of the dimension where the Huai Shi World is located to suppress the Abyss itself.
Having completed the absorption, Su Lin awoke from the dream and opened his eyes in this fully divine human form, looking out at the new world from Huai Shi's bedroom.
There was no chance to cover it up, and before they could even react, the others on the settlement screen saw it clearly.
However, the doll, which was originally nonsense, is still a doll and does not have a gender, unless someone has depicted the details before the rancher's resonance, such as the long hair and soft facial lines, as well as the traces of anti-divination processing from the Source Castle.
"Haha." Irene's forehead was sweating. She fanned herself with her hand and said, "Is that so? Well, that makes sense. After all, I gave her the standard model from the beginning. Over-modifying it would only cause more trouble."
"Tsk!" Su Lin's eyelids twitched: "So you admit that you made the doll?"
“These are all dolls left over from Belleburg. They were modified like this without my permission.” Elena crossed her arms, looking equally distressed.
Why was it with your consent and not with Mr. Su Lin's consent?
Su Lin decided to abandon that question and get to the point: "Didn't you say back then that you would handle it in a pollution-free manner?"
"Labor costs are very high, and it doesn't take up much space, so it's reasonable to keep it for now."
"Anyway, you have to remember that no matter how beautiful she is, you can't lay a hand on her." Elena poked the doll's cheek and said, "And you, you're not allowed to lay a hand on him either."
"You are all mine, and only I can take action against you."
This woman is beyond help.
Could someone really become obsessed with themselves? That's such a bizarre taste.
“Yes, there is.” Elena nodded. “I’m from a parallel world, aren’t I? Because I really like ‘Elena,’ I stayed on my own initiative from the beginning.”
This woman is completely hopeless.
Although Jiang Mingzi's idea seemed interesting, Su Lin had no desire to try it. If he did, it wouldn't be surprising to hear her say, "Come inside with me."
"Where are the other dolls? Where are they? Show them to me." Su Lin clearly remembered that those dolls had Otto's face.
When faced with the search for contraband, Elena's expression changed noticeably, and she then abruptly shifted back to the previous topic.
"Hey, you can't do it?"
"It's so annoying. Don't be so petty. You used me as a body pillow before, so it's not unreasonable to charge you a little for the dolls. I'll just treat you to bread and desserts."
Seeing that she couldn't get rid of Su Lin, Elena, who had just woken up and was still a bit grumpy, could only give up and give up.
"I'll grant you one request, if necessary."
"Really?"
"Don't go too far."
Irene patched it up, hoping to get rid of this troublesome guy and stop him from dwelling on the matter.
"Can I have Miss Broom? Pfft."
Magic was converted into physical strength, and the gray-haired witch unleashed a powerful punch like a twin-tailed, muscular magician. The martial arts technique she had learned at some point was blocked by Su Lin's lower abdomen.
HP-1
A notification sounded.
"So your hidden XP is pink hair after all?!" Elena gave her a deadpan look.
"If it doesn't work, then forget it. You can do it then." Su Lin put his hands on the other person's shoulders.
"Eh?"
The gray-haired witch suddenly remembered the "house-demolition effect" she'd seen online. Could it be that this man's initial unreasonable request was just to make her...
Her body trembled slightly, her face gradually turning red, so much so that she had to press down her large magic hat with both hands to hide it: "What do you want to do?"
"Do you even need to ask?" Su Lin lowered his head and whispered near the other's slightly red earlobe, "You have the magic to turn into animals, like cats."
"?"
A moment later, Su Lin walked out of the room, petting a gray cat with lifeless eyes.
If an animal is transformed into something cute, even Klein would appear harmless, let alone the witch in the house.
Elena: "Hehe."
I should have just used a broom.
It was already night when Huai Shi came back to life.
When I woke up, I saw Xuan Niao and a middle-aged man with a strong sense of corporate slavery standing by my bed, staring at me nervously. I heard that he was Yegor, the secretary-general of the Central Decision-Making Office. Yes, he was the future second president of the Astronomical Society.
"I've won the election?!" Yegor exclaimed in surprise.
He sacrificed himself not long after, and became the president of the previous association.
Yegor: "?"
Wait, face reading?!
"It's a mind detection device developed by combining the core of quantum mechanics with biomagnetic fields and psychological laws." A staff member from the Institute of Survival pointed to the device on Huai Shi's head and the magnetic patches attached to his body: "You could also call it mind reading."
"When we came in, we found that your source essence had collapsed and your brain consciousness had dropped to zero. You were almost in a vegetative state, which is why we had the Survival Institute come to rescue you," Xuan Niao explained.
Huai Shi forced himself to clear his mind, and with a straight face, he took off his helmet and the patches, getting up in a daze.
He remembered turning into a husky and playing happily with a group of cute kittens, when suddenly a black crow kicked him in the butt and he fell from the sky.
What happened?
The memories are somewhat disjointed, as if some heart-wrenching and painful memory has triggered the body's protective mechanism, making it unwilling to actively recall them.
"It's good that you're awake. We can talk about the rest tomorrow." Yegor breathed a sigh of relief.
After offering a few words of comfort, Xuan Niao forcibly pulled along the scholar from the Institute of Existence whose eyes were filled with a desire for dissection, and led him away from Huai Shi's room.
Before leaving, Ai Qing gave him a meaningful look.
Huai Shi picked up the 99+ missed calls with a blank expression, then glanced at the chat group with its message bar full, and some scattered memories surfaced.
It seems like you've stood up a lot of people and haven't replied to their messages yet?
He immediately flipped through the Book of Destiny, wanting to find out what had happened, but a chibi-style raven squeezed out from under the page.
The raven clicked its tongue in amazement: "You've been staying in the Witch's Night for so long that you've forgotten you're a second-tier little Karami? You even dared to taste the dishes of that Abyss Chef Demon. Rather, you're the first guy to go to heaven after eating Abyss Chef Demon's food."
Grass.
In an instant, the emptiness of spending money on virtual characters and then losing it all once again enveloped Huai Shi's heart.
Since his setback with the rancher hundreds of years ago, this abyssal culinary demon has abandoned his public identity as a chef, yet he hone his skills day and night out of resentment. The crystallization of his contradictions, helplessness, indignation, and self-doubt has finally been fulfilled and tasted by the "rancher," and has also been partially absorbed by Huai Shi's soul.
The gap is too big.
My skill level is still far behind those veteran chefs; you only need to taste their dishes once to understand this.
but
"Why would I be stupid enough to eat that stuff?!" Huai Shi pounded his chest and stomped his feet.
What do you mean by a taste that even Shirou Emiya couldn't replicate? Wait, he didn't actually say that dish was delicious.
After reviewing Su Lin's behavior and language logic, Huai Shi discovered that his [Illegal Organization Operation] level had risen to LV.16.
Is this what they call "eating one step forward and advancing one level"?
I regret it, I just feel incredibly regretful.
Overwhelmed with grief and indignation, Huai Shi turned his gaze to one of the culprits behind it all: "You still know how to come back?!"
"Otherwise what?" The crow tilted its head.
"If you get tired of me and want to have a party with your icy female boss, gentle senior sister, or best buddy from school beauty, I can just leave and not bother you anymore."
A crow flew out and brought out two boxes from somewhere.
Immediately afterwards, she flapped her wings, and a ripple slowly drifted by. Huai Shi's shadow gradually took on the outline of the past, as if a bubble full of memories was beginning to burst. Among the fragments of memories, there was a dead child carrying a cello walking down the street, and a white-haired phantom in a black robe.
"Yesterday's illusion," the crow sighed. "I've found the conditions you needed to advance to the Lesser Fate Master, but actually..."
"You don't have to; you can choose to live a different life."
Huai Shi was a little confused, and for a moment he didn't know what tricks this wicked woman was playing.
"Times have changed, Huai Shi," the crow said, landing on the opposite side.
"Even if you gather the birth of life, the true meaning of nothingness, the connection of souls, and the illusion of yesterday to advance to become Shao Siming, it's not that important to you now, including me."
Huai Shi: "?"
"Now that you have the paper doll you've been longing for, and with the help of your great godfather, everyone's favorability towards you is almost maxed out." The crow looked down into Huai Shi's eyes and tossed a thick book at Huai Shi's face.
"With just a little effort, we should be able to achieve a harmonious and mutually agreeable ending."
"Three Years of Fragments, Five Years of Torture?" Huai Shi stared at the book in astonishment.
"Oh, sorry." The crow switched to another book.
"The Sea Tiger?"
"It's this one."
A copy of "Rebirth: I Am the Rising Sun" fell into Huai Shi's hands.
It's an urban fantasy novel about a protagonist surnamed Huai who is reborn into a new life, exuding domineering power, and living a shameless life with five girls. The writing style has also changed to the genre of soldier king, war god, and bodyguard.
"Now that things have come to this, I must admit, as an older woman, I'm finding it a bit difficult to keep up with the way young people play," Crow sighed.
"Huai Shi, we're all free now. We don't have to follow the steps in the records anymore. Isn't that better?"
"I didn't say it was bad," Huai Shi said, looking at the crow with a puzzled expression.
crow:"."
"But in recent years, there has been no market for simple, light novels. Even the better ones, like 'Evil God Overthrows the Heavens,' are often abandoned after a long time. 'The School Beauty's Bodyguard' is basically all filler. Even I, who reads pirated versions, can't stand it anymore."
Huai Shi sighed, "So it's fine as it is now."
"You're not going to say I want everything in front of people who know the truth, are you?" the crow said disdainfully.
"Yes." Huai Shi nodded shamelessly:
"Even if it's you who's been persecuting me all day, emptying my bank account, and selling me into the ocean trench, I still want to say I want everything, including you."
Because I can't think of any other way besides splitting the timeline; it's like this now, and it will definitely be like this in the future.
"Wow, that's impressive." The crow seemed somewhat surprised: "Is it just that you've gotten arrogant or just gotten bolder?"
Huai Shi shook his head: "According to the terms of the contract, you and I will share glory, power, crown and authority. Including, and not limited to... life, soul, and everything."
"Isn't that right? Tong Ji, you should know better than anyone else."
"So you want to use this excuse to get me to join your future orgies? I'd feel guilty if it were with my niece, Qingyu." Crow raised her neck, her words playful, but her eyes were serious.
"How could that be?" Huai Shi asked in confusion, "Didn't I say that before?"
"Ok?"
"I want to be honest with everyone."
Huai Shi said, "In the future, I will find time to watch 'My Life' together with everyone. It is a life called 'Apocalypse Forecast'. I have no option to give up because I am also the instigator. But whether it is you or others, you can make your own choice."
"Tongji, if you make a new choice, I will accept and respect it."
"No initiative, no promises, no responsibility? He's practically no different from a scumbag!" Crow narrowed his eyes.
“There is still a difference.” Huai Shi was a little uncertain: “There is at least a slight difference. Even if everyone chooses a new life and I am the only one left, I can accept that possibility.”
Crow: "Won't you regret it?"
"Of course I will, because I love everyone." Huai Shi smiled. "But I hope even more that everyone can find happiness."
On the windowsill, a crow transformed into human form, sitting there with a half-smile, looking down at the boy whose expression was calm, as if waiting for her to make her next move.
Tong Ji pulled out a book titled "The Road to Survival," flipped through a couple of pages, and said, "Not bad, I've learned some of the essentials."
"Where did you come from?" Huai Shi's pupils dilated.
"Do you really think you can hide your secret schemes and hidden money from me?" Tong Ji said matter-of-factly.
"Let me tell you, if everyone in front of you slaps you and gives up, doesn't that mean the last one can take advantage of the situation?"
"From the very beginning, there was no turning back."
"Either I'll be chopped into several pieces and divided equally among everyone, or someone will chain me up and tie me to the basement."
"..." Huai Shi looked at Tong Ji, not understanding why she was making such a fuss. Wasn't this kind of bloody end possible from the beginning?
"I just wanted to see if you were willing to give up a tree for the forest, and I would leave you to fend for yourself. But you're not willing to let go of a bad woman like me."
Tong Ji smiled and said, "You no longer need to present 'A Lifetime' to 'everyone'."
"What do you mean?" Huai Shi asked, puzzled.
"Chu Hai has already spread the news before you." Tong Ji's smile became even stranger: "The first person to finish reading the novel was not the little white rabbit you've been longing for, nor anyone else, but that daughter-controlling soldier lord."
"By the way."
"This matter has nothing to do with me."
Under Huai Shi's bewildered gaze, Tong Ji tossed an invitation to him.
"Special invitation to the Grand Final and Exhibition Matches of the Culinary Master Competition"
What the hell?
"Start running away now," Tong Ji said mockingly. "Run away before those girls who think you're just confused about parallel world memories and are being understanding and forgiving find out."
I originally planned to finish writing two chapters before midnight and then release them together, but I had to go out this afternoon and I'm a bit short on time, so I'll just post one chapter now. I'm currently writing the second chapter. If there isn't a second chapter by midnight, please check back tomorrow at noon. In any case, there will definitely be a double update.
