Chapter 137 [Simulated Universe·Earth] Mission Completed [VIP]
The player had just pulled the scarred man's wife back from the brink of death, and before he had time to appreciate her grateful (not really) expression, [Insight] keenly caught a very faint but definitely strange aura belonging to the [Ghost Doctor] guy, which was rapidly moving away.
The player immediately lost her mood for small talk. Without another word, she used [Tame] on the scarred man, who hadn't yet finished figuring out the situation. The process was complete, and the weapon was ready for storage!
Then he said quickly: "I have something to do, so I'll leave first!"
The next second, the player had teleported to the origin of the remaining aura. Using their Insight, they locked onto the unique aura that was a mixture of Equation and Blessing, and began a frantic pursuit across half the city.
She kept [teleporting], accurately predicting the opponent's escape route and chasing and intercepting them.
Finally, in a dead end, the player successfully blocked the figure wearing a smiley mask and a white coat.
[Ghost Story Strange Doctor] was being chased until he was out of breath. Seeing the lingering player, he rolled his eyes in anger (you could see the eyes moving through the two holes in the mask), and his voice became distorted: "I ran all the way here! Why are you here again?! What do you want?"
The player tilted his head, trying to come up with a more understandable explanation: "Maybe it's because we're destined to be together?"
Before he finished speaking, their eyes met - and they moved almost at the same time!
The player was well prepared and instantly caught a rainbow-colored lollipop called "Yu Chunbai's Thank You Gift" in his mouth.
The [Immune] status instantly refreshed on her panel.
She ignored the laughing organs and the strange forces that tried to infect her emotions that appeared again beside her, and activated [Vector Manipulation] to pin her down against the wall!
What followed was a one-sided, unpredictable exchange of blows. Without even drawing their swords, the player unleashed punches and kicks imbued with vector force, pounding down upon their opponent, controlling the force and precisely chipping away at the opponent's health bar until only a sliver remained.
[Strange Doctor] groaned, his eyes rolled back under the mask, and he fainted completely.
As he lost consciousness, the [Equation] and several [Blessing] balls that flashed with different lights slowly emerged from his body as if being peeled off, floated up, and finally flew obediently into the player's open heart, and were automatically collected by the system.
The player patted his head in satisfaction and was about to clean up the spoils -
A sound of breaking air came from the alley!
A man with blue hair, two little balls on his head, dressed like Nezha ([Insight] shows: Lu Ziyunyi) suddenly rushed in. Seeing the [Ghost Doctor] lying on the ground and the player standing next to him, without saying a word, dazzling lightning burst out from his body and punched the player!
Player: “???”
Where did this red name come from?
The fake Nezha's attack method is quite scientific and tricky.
[Insight] instantly gave a detailed analysis: He could perform extremely delicate charge separation of the cursed energy, impart positive charge to the target through striking, and then induce the negative charge accumulated in his body to the target, using the principle of attraction between positive and negative charges to achieve a "guaranteed hit" effect.
He can also charge objects and remotely pull them back to shock enemies in a straight line. His weakness is also very scientific: he is afraid of water, and his magic power will be leaked when in contact with water, but he can also use electrolysis of seawater to produce explosives or cause steam explosions.
Generally speaking, he is a person who is very proficient in chemistry... It is obviously cursed power, but science is mixed in it, which is really weird.
The player was a little annoyed by the crackling electric light. Although it didn't hurt, the numbness was very annoying and would cause her movements to get stuck from time to time.
She impatiently took out the [Salt and Pepper Fried Mushrooms] that were immune to [Paralysis] from her system backpack and stuffed them into her mouth. She was choked by the sudden attack from the other party and quickly drank a bottle of [Mint Lung Clearing Drink] to detoxify.
After a while, the players started to get angry.
While continuously using [Vector Manipulation] to precisely deflect and reflect those lightning strikes, the player suddenly had an idea. The skill panel flashed—[Vector Manipulation] had been upgraded! It became the more advanced [Energy Manipulation], capable of even more fundamentally interfering with energy!
The player's eyes lit up, and he used [Energy Manipulation] on the fake Nezha that was rushing towards him again!
Buzz——!
The lightning lingering around the fake Nezha seemed to be extinguished in an instant by an invisible force. The whole person froze in place like a puppet with its strings cut, unable to move. Even the flow of his mantra power was completely blocked. Then he fell down softly, and his health bar reached the bottom.
The player let out an unhappy "tsk" and walked over to use [Subdue] on the unconscious Shuangwanzi NPC, thus erasing his hostility towards him.
After pulling up the fake Nezha's health bar and shaking him awake, the player immediately interrogated him angrily, "Who are you? Why are you hitting me all of a sudden?"
The fake Nezha was in a very happy mood, looking at the player with bright eyes, excitedly praising her strength, and then explaining her origins all at once.
He was a sorcerer who came from 400 years ago and was bound by an even older sorcerer named Nozomi. The original contract was to fight Sukuna, the strongest sorcerer he knew in legend.
But Xusuo recently resurrected him and told him that a stronger player had appeared, so he happily came over to compete with the player.
Players were very upset when they heard that another mastermind behind the scenes had emerged (Noose) and that they couldn't solve the problem immediately.
Seeing this, the fake Nezha immediately offered a suggestion: "Why don't you ask Tianyuan? The whole of Japan is shrouded in her barrier, and she knows almost everything within it! She will definitely be able to find the whereabouts of the noose!"
The player suddenly understood and patted him on the shoulder: "That makes sense!"
She immediately left the fake Nezha and the unconscious [Strange Doctor] on the ground, and without stopping, [teleported] directly to the Hongxing Palace in the basement of the Polytechnic High School.
Faced with the unknown being, the player was too lazy to talk nonsense and just [captured] him.
Tianyuan seemed to have no resistance, or he accepted it very recklessly.
Through the precise positioning provided by Tianyuan, the player was instantly [teleported] to the location of the noose.
It was quite unexpected that this guy was actually shopping there leisurely, strolling among the crowd with a smile on his face and a leisurely look.
In order to avoid hurting the green names around him, the player patiently went to a rarely visited place before appearing and preparing for battle.
The man with a suture line on his forehead and a feminine temperament had a look of sudden change in expression when he saw the player suddenly appear.
Without any chance, he activated the [Energy Manipulation] force and punched forward.
The noose's body was instantly shattered into pieces! Even more disgusting, a toothy, slimy, pink brain-like creature actually crawled out of his shattered head and tried to escape!
The player was nauseated by the scene, her scalp tingling. She suppressed her discomfort and quickly pulled out her system-made camera, snapping a close-up photo. She then sent it to Noise Monster, Weird Bangs, Dead Fish Eyes, Scar Man, and the others, captioning it with the single word: [What bad luck].
After sending the message, the player unhesitatingly used [Energy Manipulation] to completely annihilate the disgusting brain and its remains, leaving no trace of ashes.
After walking around the ashes of the corpse and setting it on fire, the player finally breathed a sigh of relief after making sure everything was clean.
Prepare to complete the last sub-task of [The Light of Righteousness] - [City of Order].
Players speculated that the system had put this last because, based on the mission description, it wasn't a disaster. An unknown entity had descended upon Shinjuku and transformed it into a supremely orderly city. No chaos, no crime, and perhaps even... no fun.
The player [teleports] to Shinjuku.
The scene before her made her feel a little uncomfortable: the streets were sparkling clean, the pedestrians were all neatly dressed, with calm expressions (even a little empty), they strictly abided by traffic rules and social etiquette when walking, sitting and standing, talked to each other in soft voices, and their smiles were so standard that they looked like they were copied and pasted.
The entire city runs like a sophisticated machine, but it lacks vitality.
[Insight] quickly locked onto the source of the strange fluctuations in the center of the city - a [triangle instrument] suspended in mid-air and slowly rotating.
It was emitting a soft glow, playing a kind of peaceful and tranquil music. The melody was very strange, the scale transcended the conventional octave, and the harmonies constantly combined to form new, yet always harmonious and not jarring modes, as if it were a melody that could change infinitely yet always remain in absolute "order".
The player walked under it, jumped a little, and reached out to pick it off without any surprise.
No one stopped her. The citizens around her continued to smile friendly yet hollow smiles, going about their business. Even after the [Triangle Musical Instrument] was removed, the city remained unchanged, its people still maintaining their pre-established "order" of behavior.
The player looked at Yu Zhong, this strange and strange object that no longer made any sound, curled his lips, and threw it into his backpack.
At the moment when the last rare item was put into the bag, her system interface suddenly lit up.
[Main Mission: Simulated Universe·Earth- Completed!]
[Saving in progress...Saving completed.]
Immediately afterwards, the game world before their eyes began to blur and fade, and the player was gently "pushed" out of the game interface by an invisible force.
She yawned loudly, then realized she had been playing for what seemed like an eternity. A CG gallery of game characters began to play before her eyes:
After school, Chuuya and Dazai were playing on the beachside road, their backpacks slung over their shoulders. Squinty-eyed Cat walked slowly forward, his hands folded behind his head. Butterfly and Oda were whispering to each other over the books in his hand.
[Decisive Battle—Noise Monster and Monster Bangs stood in front of the claw machine with ferocious expressions. One of them had a cigarette in his mouth, while the other held a doll, revealing the faint smile of a winner.]
[Daily Life—Hao Quan is walking along a small path beside the riverbank, holding his cat bodyguard. A cat lover peeks out from the side, ready to make a move on the cat bodyguard. The forest elf, with a gentle expression, turns his head to chat with the person next to him.]
Cherry Blossom Viewing - Scar Man and Sea Urchin Lady chat and laugh in a cherry blossom park, spreading out their picnic mat. Sea Urchin Boy is invited by a child from a nearby family to go see the Samoyeds under the tree.
…
The player rubbed his eyes and closed the game.
The door slid open, and her faithful Timmy AI slid in, handing her a cup of iced [Happy Immortal Tea]. "Hi, back. How was the game?"
The player took the drink, took a long sip, and sighed contentedly, "It's alright, quite interesting, but I feel like I still have a lot of side quests to complete."
She walked to the window, looked at the real sunlight and street outside, and stretched.
"I'll check it out online next time I have time."
