"Finally - I'm back!"

Stepping onto the land of Tendao Palace again, Kuroneko stretched her body and cheered happily. Beside her, Asuna and Eriri also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yeah... I never thought that we would stay in a completely different world for so long..."

Asuna opened her eyes, looked at the sky in front of her, then looked at the VF behind her... Hmm?

Wait, why is there a VF?

This was because when Fang Zheng came back this time, he brought two people with him, one of whom was C.C. She was very interested in the outside world, and after listening to Fang Zheng's introduction to the Tiandao Palace, she took the initiative to ask to follow.

The second person was Anya, who had performed very well in the previous battle against the Reapers. However, after destroying those alien creatures and returning to Earth, Fang Zheng once asked Anya about the commendation, but she expressed her hope to become Fang Zheng's knight.

Considering that Anya's performance was indeed good, Fang Zheng finally revealed the existence of Tiandao Palace to her. Anya herself did not have any hesitation about this, so she was taken back by Fang Zheng.

"Then, Xia Shi, you go and find a place for C.C. and Anya to live, and then be responsible for arranging their daily life in Tiandao Palace."

Having been in Tiandao Palace for such a long time, Fang Zheng naturally already had a set of clear procedures, such as who to bring back and what to do. After hearing this, Xia Shi nodded, and then left with C.C. and Anya.

"etc!"

As she watched them leave, Ying Lili seemed to suddenly remember something and jumped up.

"How long have we been in that world?"

"Why……"

Asuna and Kuroneko were both stunned when they heard Eriri's question. They had been enjoying traveling to a new world before, but now that Eriri asked them this question...

"About... half a year?"

"It must have been half a year... I think it's been a year..."

“It’s over!”

The two of them were talking to themselves, and then their expressions suddenly changed.

It’s like a playful child finally realizes that he has missed curfew.

"What should we do? Will our family think we are missing? Will they call the police?!"

"We still have midterm exams... Have I completely skipped a semester?"

"Don't worry."

Facing the three people's terrified expressions, Fang Zheng waved his hands.

"Have you forgotten? The time in Tiandao Palace is not synchronized with that in other worlds. It has been about three days in Tiandao Palace now. As for your world..."

Fang Zheng turned on the system and adjusted the speed of time flow.

"Well, only three hours have passed so far."

"call……"

After hearing Fang Zheng's answer, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief. However, the next moment, Black Cat's expression changed again.

"Wait, so we traveled through a world and saved the civilizations of two universes, but now I have to go back to take the midterm exam?!"

"What is the scope of the exam?"

Asuna was also stunned at this moment. God is my God. Although in their world, these knowledge points were just what they had just learned, but you have to know that the three of them have been adventuring in the other world for almost a year!

This year, their minds are full of things like Turian, Salari, Asari, Star Alliance, Reaper, Chinese Federation, District 11, etc. Who still remembers what the teacher said a year ago to review? !

This is really terrible!!

"I have to go back to review!"

After saying this, Asuna hurriedly ran towards the dimensional elevator. Just kidding, if she failed this exam, her mother would not care how many Reapers Asuna had destroyed in outer space and how many cosmic civilizations she had saved. By then, Asuna would have to face the final boss who was more terrifying than the Reapers!

"Me too!!"

Black Cat and Eriri no longer had their usual ease and confidence. They rushed into the dimensional elevator in a hurry, like a group of defeated soldiers trying to escape, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"hehe."

Looking at the backs of the people who left in a hurry, Fang Zheng smiled and shook his head. He had to admit that it was actually quite good for people like Asuna and the others to live a stable life in their own world. For them, adventures in other worlds might just be a pastime, a way to kill time, or a part-time job. But at least, they still had a familiar home to return to.

But I am not so lucky. I don’t know if the system can connect to my world. But... even if it is connected, it will be useless.

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng sighed. Unfortunately, even if he could connect to his original world, Fang Zheng could not enjoy his life like Asuna and the others. He was now the ruler of Tiandao Palace. There were millions of people in Tiandao Palace alone that he needed to manage. Adding the forces of various worlds, the number of people Fang Zheng needed to manage was even greater than that of the great powers on Earth. Therefore, he obviously could not treat this as a part-time job like Asuna and the others.

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng shook his head, then turned on the system and opened the task panel. Soon, the task prompt appeared in front of Fang Zheng.

[Exploration mission activated (completed)]

[Our journey is to the sea of ​​stars, not to a remote place. Gather everything you have and head towards the infinite sea of ​​stars]

【User reputation list】

[Fire Mist World: Reverence (As the creator god, you have opened up a brand new home and future for your people)]

[Higurashi World: Friendly (You are unknown in that world, but you have received attention from unusual beings)]

[Game World: Respect (You are leading the civilization trend of that world, and future development is just around the corner)]

[Mech World: Reverence (You have saved the civilizations of two universes, and you will be respected and worshipped by everyone)]

[Type-Moon World: Respect (Everything you do is causing subtle changes to that world)]

[Main world: Friendly (You are the backbone of the fight against chaos, and it is your duty to protect order)]

After completing this mission, the system was not very generous. In addition to opening the world reputation system, there was only one buff left to increase the fantasy probability.

However, this reputation system is not completely useless. At least Fang Zheng can use it to see his own level and influence in various worlds.

It is understandable that Fang Zheng is revered in the Dark World, the Fire Mist World and the Mecha World. After all, in these two worlds, Fang Zheng basically appears as a "savior". In the former, he saved countless "cursed children". In the Fire Mist World, Fang Zheng created a new world as a "sacrificial snake". He also helped the civilizations of the two universes fight against the Reapers in the Mecha World. It is not surprising that he has achieved a revered reputation.

As for the game and the Type-Moon world, Fang Zheng only respected him, and this was the same. After all, in these two worlds, Fang Zheng only saved a few people and did not become the savior of all mankind. Although he did save thousands of people in the Death Game and won the Holy Grail War in the Type-Moon world, Fang Zheng's fame in the entire "world" was currently limited to this.

The "friendliness" of Higurashi's world is even more telling. Hinamizawa is just a small village, a place that even if it were wiped off the map, not many people in the country would care about it. Naturally, Fang Zheng's reputation is not that high.

But his reputation in the main world is surprisingly friendly... This only means that Fang Zheng has not done enough in the main world.

Was it wrong to keep oneself safe in the past?

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng opened the reputation store and took a closer look. Just like the reputation store in the game, the system's reputation store can also be purchased directly with dimensional points, but only after the reputation of the corresponding world reaches a certain level. However...

"Um?"

However, when Fang Zheng was looking at the reputation store in the main world, he was suddenly startled and stood up hurriedly.

At this moment, behind the merchandise column in front of Fang Zheng, there was clearly a small bottle that looked a little strange and like a syringe... If Fang Zheng was not mistaken, this was...

Secret treasure!

Fang Zheng reached out and tapped on the secret treasure. Soon, a line of information appeared in front of Fang Zheng.

[Order Activation Enhancement Device (120,000 Dimensional Points) (Requirement: Respect) (Warning: This item has a certain chance of causing unknown problems, please use with caution)]
